NEW YORK. Jan. 9.-The port Of New
York was lied UP today when $4,000
members Of the marine workers af1lia-
ton struck at o'clock this morning.
There were no ferries running to New
Jersey or Staten Island. Persons living
at the latter place are 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 the Hudson
River
The strike was expected to spread
rapidly to other marine workers. The
international Longshoremen' Associa-
ton met early today to take steps in
sympathy with the marine workers af-
lliation. II was estimated that, un-
less some measure was taken ina short
time about 10000 men would be idle.
A serious fuel and food famine was
threatened.
Supplies from the interior Of the
United States for export and from
abroad are expected TO be held up. Re
turning soldiers also faced the prospect
Of being unable to land from ships
The only boats exempted from the
strike order were those operated by
Federal government Jarrying wounded
and sick soldiers between hospitals and
the port Of embarkation at Hoboken
The Pennsylvania Railway Company's
ferries were operating in a desultory
manner.
The Fort Lee ferries, used by thous-
ands Of soldiers travelling between
Camp Merritt and New York, shut
down at 6 a. m. The Central Of New
Jersey and othe downtown ferries
suspended at 6 a. m. Signs were post
ed warning commuters. Ocean liners
were affected by the order. Instructions
were issued that no member OF the
union was to give a tow. The strike
is the result of refusal by employers

10 agree to an award made some time
ago by the war labor board, An eight
hour day and increase in pay was
granted the men. The board yester-
day announced its inability TO bring
about an agreemnt and the strike order
came shortly afterward.
At the office Of the marine director
for the United States Railroad admin
stration it was stated that Lackawanna
Railroad boats were running 10 Jersey
under operation Of nOn-union crews.
These. it was stated, probably would
be discontinued when Pennsylvania
boats were removed.
II was declared that no protection
from troops or from naval forces had
been asked and it was deemed likely
that it would be. The strikers con-
trolled the situation with no trouble.
"There probably will be hell TO pay
very shortly" was the comment at the
Marine Directors office.
7. l.. Delahunty, president of the ma
rine workers affiliated said 70 of the
workers had left their work at Q O'Clock
leaving their boats as they reached
shore, tying them up banking their fires
and reporting on strike.
Delahunty said there was no indica-
tion that there would be any violence,
but gathered around the ferry slips at
the Manhattan and Staten Island ter
minals were large crowds Of workmen.
Delahunty declared the only way the
strike can be settled is for a board 10
arbitration with power to
enforce its awards. The men, he de-
clared, will not go to work under the
old arrangement Of hours and pay 10
await settlement
Five naval tugs used in transport
docking operations were tied up when
their civilian crews walked out.
A number Of naval mine sweepers
were put in operation to carry govern
ment employees to their jobs.
Crews Of city fire and police boats
were ordered to leave their jobs by
noon.
Streets leading to idle ferry terminals
were packed with indignant citizens.

sey produce men chiefly brought their
truck over in autos on the ferries and
did not use boats.
Mr.. Warner said the new wharf would
be not only for the immediate Jersey
nelghborhood, but would open mp a
tremendous territory for direct touch
with Wilmington markets ali along the
Delaware river, on both sides. lie
thought high Jersey prices now were
due to the little competition, that low
er prices would necessarily follow a
great influx OF produce.
lie said further that IL was the in
land farmers who used autos. not those
near the river The Harbor Commits
sioners had communicated with many
shippers who said they would be glad
TO use wharf facilities II they had them.
Now they had to haul away goods as
soon as they were landed from the boats
and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
did not particularly welcome boats at
its pier. He thought the city would
save the cost Of the wharf in revenue
from Il, at least every two years.
Councilman Kane suggested that land
now leased 10 the pusey and Jones
Company be sold TO that company 10
help pay cost Of the wharf. but othe.
Councilmen said the company did not
want TO buy it, besides they thought
enough riyerfront territory had gone
out OF the oity's hands now
Councilmen Mearn and Atkins agreed
with the Harbor Board that the most
permanent construction was the best.
VT. Warner recommended Immediate
purchase Of the Lobdell property at the
mouth OF the Christiana river to pre-
vent its being bought by private par
ties and thus lost TO the city
This property, he said, included 100
acres OF high land, at $1,000 an acre
with which would go riparian rights
without charge TO t0i acres OF low land
beyond the banks, making a total cost
OF about s20000o0 with an additional s2i.
900 for Improvements Lobdell's had
made, chiefly six or seven buildings.
In the future. Mr.. Warner thought
the storage facilities on piers at this
point would attract commerce rom an
over the country, particularly from the
Pacific coast, through the Panama
Canal. II would afford piers for for
eign bound and coastwise vessels and
make wilmington a great seaport. The
cost OF the total seaport project miqht
De Two and half millions, he said. but
1t would come back in revenue.
Referring TO rumors heard nv sev-
eral Councilmen that the pensvlvania
Railroad was about to undertake
great amount Of construction wo-k To-
cally, Mr.. Warner said an official of the
railroad had told him the construetion
OF q yard for eastbound freight was
the only project contemplated.
This is the beginning Of a new com
mercial ere. II Wilmington is eve- 20
ing 70 get into the game. now is the
time, concluded Mr.. Warner.
