! New York, Jan. 10.-The port of
New York was tied up when $4,000
members of the marine workers at
'filiation struck at a. m. There were
no ferries running to New Jersey or
Staten island. Persons living at the
latter place were isolated.
Tubes carried all Jersey residents
having business in New York. The
trains were taxed to capacity.
The strike also cut off the railway
terminals on the Jersey side of tho
Hudson river.
The strike was ordered when con-
ference of the union men and the boat
owners association ended, following
the refusal of the latter to arbitrate
the question Of an eight-hour day.
While the strike has not as yet been
extended to coastwise steamers, coast
wise tugs, transatlantic steamships
or Long Island Sound steamers, it
was said by the labor leaders that it
might eventually spread to those lines
and throw out of employment 10000
longshoremen and freight handlers.
The tieup, according to strike lead
ers and transportation officials, brings
New York to a crisis as regards foods
and coal and they predict that within
"a hours the milk situation here will
be much more serious.

Shippers to Present Views.
Shippers and representatives of
state railroad commissioners are the
two principal groups who have not
yet presented their views to the SEN
ate committee.
Among the objections expressed by
senator's to the railroads plans, out.
lined by T. Dewitt Cuyler, chairman
of the association of railway execu-
tives, was that II government super.
vision were vested principally in a
secretary of transportation, politics
might play large part in railway
policies. and there might be no con.
stant policy containing through the
changes of administration.
These questions were raised by Sem
ators Cummins Of Iowa and Smith Of
South Carolina. Another objection
was II the railroads are guaranteed by
law an adequate return, they should
not also have power to determine
rates, even though these rates were
subject to veto by the secretary of
transportation and modification by the
Interstate Commerce commission.
Senator Underwood Of Alabama sug-
gested that the government should
have the authority to dictate details
