R. R. Strike

\ strike for higher wages is listed
to take place on the Western Pacific
Railroad. The road will probably
be tied up in the next few days.

Western Pacific employees are the
poorest paid OF those OF any rallroad
in the West For instance, passenger
conductors and >brakemen ar pad

ployes on the Southern Paciic and
the difference in the wages OF frcigin
conductors, brakemen, engineers ane
iircmen is even greater.
Ever since the Western Pacific Wa
opened for traffic the men in the tram
service have been working for barely
living wages and their repeated et-
ule equal to that paid by the South
ern Pacific and other lines operating
in the same territory have met witt
stone wall opposition from the OH
cials OF the Western Pacific.

UMPoUA WORK REFUSED.
Secretary Of War Holds Expense Ia
Too Great.


Washington, D. C.-The Secretary
Of War has reported adversely on
the proposed improvement of Ump-
qua river for Sc miles between SCOTS
burg and Roseburg, Or, because the
examination shows that such an i'm
provement, to be Of any great value,
would be costly and the amount of
commerce that would be benefited
would not justify a large expenditure.
There is fall of 465 feet in this
stretch of river, which makes it ne
cessary to construct a system of
dams and locks to provide continuous
navigation. At this time it is held
that such an Improvement would not
be justified
The Secretary also reports adverse
" on the proposal to remove Guano
Rock, on the south side of the en-
trance to Coos Bay. The examina.
ton showed that there is a shoat ex-
tending from this rock to the south
shore and if the rock were removed
the shoal also would have to be cut
away.
The engineers report that If the
Lighthouse Service will mark Guano
Rock plainly with an appropriate
buoy, it will not be inimical to ship
ping. The cost Of removing the rock
and shoal it is held, is too great
to be justified by present conditions,

Chief Engineer Holds Expenditure OF
$12,325 Is Justified.
Washington, D. C-The Secretary
of the Treasury has transmitted the
estimate and recommendations of
Chief Engineer Bixby for dredging
the Hoquiam river and constructing
a channel 100 feet wide and Is feet
deep at a cost of $12,325 and $1,000
annual maintenance, the work to be
performed by the dredge Oregon and
lands to be provided by local inter.
ests for dumping the waste material
The local engineer reported ad-
versely on the proposed dredging OF
the Hoquiam river, on the ground
that local interests were unwilling to
bear half the cost and on. the further
ground that in his opinion the com
merce would not justify the expendi-
ture. The Army Board and the chief
of engineers, after further investiga-
ton, take the position that considers
BILE shipping would be benefited by
this work, and overrule the local Off.
Ger.
By dredging an 1S-foot channel
across bars in the river, the largest
ships visiting Grays' Harbor can
reach all the important docks on the
Hoquiam river and this, they be.
lieve, amply justifies the expenditure
of $12,325.

Washington, D. C.-The Sherwood
service pension bill, which adds up
wards Of $4O,OOO.OOO to the Govern

ing increased pensions to Civil and
Mexican War veterans, on the basis
of length of service, was passed by

timated that the bill would add $751;

vantage of the increased pension.

ocratic Leader Underwood and Fitz-
gerald Of New York, chairman of the
appropriations committee, voted
against it.
The bill now goes to the Senate,
where there is disposition to pass
some form of amended service pen
sion legislation. Senate leaders, how
ever, will proceed slowly in the con-
sideration of this legislation and
many House Democrats voted for the
measure in the belief that the Sen
ate would not pass 1t.
The Sulloway age pension bill,
passed by the House last Spring,
failed of passage in the Senate. This
Republican measure was offered I'M
successfully in the House as a substi-
tute of the Sherwood bill. Scores OF
amendments were offered and hard
but unsuccessful fight was made to
have a straight $1-a-day pension bill
established without regard to length
of service.
The Sherwood bill would establish
the following basis of pensions:
For service of 80 days to six
months, SIS month; from six to
nine months, $50 month; from nine
months to one year, $25 month;
more than one year, $50 month.

WOULD BREAK
RUSSIAN TREATY
House Votes to Abrogate Agree
ment Of 1882.
Russia is RoundIy Scored for Dis
elimination Against JEWISH
American Citizens,

Washington, D. C. - The Sulzer
joint resolution for the termination of
the treaty of 1882 between the United
States and Russia because of the lat
ter's discrimination against Jewish
American citizens, passed the house
by 300 to l. The negative vote was
cast by Representative Malby, of New
York.
A virtually identical resolution by
Senator Culberson, of Texas, is pend
ing in the senate. Favorable action
of both houses will be necessary to
make either resolution effective. Both
the Sulzer and Culberson resolutions
direct the president to give Russia
the years notice necessary for the
abrogation of the treaty that has been
in force for nearly 80 years.
An attempt led by Representative
Olmsted, of Pennsylvania, to modify
the Sulzer resolution, so as to avoid
making the direct charge that Russia
had violated the treaty in refusing to
recognize the passports of American
Jews, was defeated, 1874 to lis.
Prominent Republicans declared that
the house should not go on record as
charging a violation of the treaty,
but should adopt language stating
that Russia had so construed the
treaty that the United States could no
longer be party to it.
The sentiments announced here, "
Republican Leader Mann said, care
such that if they were uttered in any
other parliamentary body might bring
such resentment as would provoke
war;"
Mann added that if the United
States asserted that demonstration
against races was a violation of a
treaty, it might weaken its own at
titude toward the exclusion of Orien-
tails.
