RIOTS ON COAST BUT STRIKE
May Be OVER THIS EVENING

SEATTLE, July 15.-Mayor Gill voiced bitter criti-
csm of both sides in the ongshoemen strike today after
fights and disorders occurred on the docks He out
openly VITA charges against the patromen and detectives
Of cowardce and incompetence There three union
men on the police force he declared and have no way
of preventing union man who fufls the requirement Of
the Civil Service from becoming patroIman" He fol-
lowed up by saying that few paromen had shown COW
ardice on the waterfront and had neglected their duty
and as soon as the strike is over they will be discharged
IF the civil service will not uphold me" said Gill; "I
look for a new civil service commission"
He also expressed the opinion that the detective depart
ment has shown incompetence in failing to run down
of the assaants of the dock workers. This is especially
true he declares in the case Of man who assaulted
on street car ON Western avenue There number
of people who saw the assault and the mayor thinks there
should be no difficulty in securing witnesses Gill prom
ses that somebody in the detective department will be dis
charged for neglect of duty if arrests are not made in
these cases.
Note-A captain Of one of the liners told the Gate
way some days ago here in Seward that all the men
say can be found in Seattle to load and unload ships. He
says these strike breakers are not as competent the
regular longshoremen but will be 50 in a month or two
There is no difficulty he said in getting all the men they
want To this fact no doubt is due the disorders report
