almost daily are pointing to some illus
tration Of the value Of that work.
The department is engaged in an effort
to attract the attention of American
contracting firms and engineers to the
great field for exploitation afforded by
the decision of the Uruguayan govern.
ment to spend the enormous sum of
$50. .OO0.0 600 in eight years for the i'm
provement of the harbor of Montevideo.
There Is the keenest rivalry between
Montevideo and Buenos Aires for suprem-
acy in shipping. and Montevideo has al
ready spent $1S.0OO.OOO to improve its
port facilities. But the improvements
have not kept pace with the growth of
shipping, and at present Montevideo car
ries more tonnage than any port on the
western hemisphere. excepting New York

ton. The Argentine government Is about
to dig thirty-foot channel In the River
Plate, costing millions of dollars. to en-
able Buenos Aires to compete with the

ment works In 1909, but Is now making
q determined effort to have American
contractors and exporters of dredging
and other harbor machinery respond
when these new bids are called for in a

DECLARES GOV. JOHNSON |
WILL FREE M'NAMARAS|
Lincoln Steffens Authority for
Statement That Dynamiters
Will Be Pardoned.

LOS ANGELES. September Lincoln
Steffens yesterday said the business men
Of Los Angeles had broken faith with
unionisrn and had violated a pledge given
when the McNamaras pleaded guilty to
dynamiting the Times, by which twenty
one men were killed, and that therefore
a petition had been presented to Gov.
Hiram w. johnson asking for the pardon
of the McNamaras.
According to the statement of Steffens,
issued in Portland, the business men OF
Los Angeles agreed to give union labor a
fair chance in Los Angeles IL the McNa-
maras would plead guilty. This. he de-
clares. has not been done, thereupon the
movement which has been under way for
several months, according to labor lead
ers here, has come to q head.
Backers Of Movement.
Back of the movement are Steffens.
Fremont Older, the San Francisco ed
itor. and one Of the closest friends Of
Gov Johnson, and E. T. Earl. leader Of
Gov. Johnson's party in the southern part
OF the state. Supporting them are the
labor men in the state.
Reports that organized labor would
send such a petition to Gov. Johnson
was received with incredulity here when
it was rumored a few days ago. But
from authoritative sources it is learned
that the petition already has several
thousand names with the original re-
port then s,coffed at and now proved
true, was the statement that Gov. john
son had promised to show 'all Glenn
ency possible" to the McNamaras. 1t ls
said that the same clemency shown ape
Rueff, which is foregone conclusion in
California. will be extended to the Nc
Namara brothers.
Saws Pardon Will Be Issued.
Steffens, who claims to have been in
strumental in bringing about the con-
fession of the McNamaras. declares he
has authority for his statement that the
McNamaras will be pardoned, and his
statement is corroborated by labor lead
ers here.
