All they want i{s what the contractors will not give them—an eight-hour day with pay for ten hours and double time for overtime at the same ratfo. The Government s not taking any chances in the matter and all vessels coming here under contract will have the work done elsewhere or else they will g0 to another port. The Port Stephens left Newcastle, N. 8. W., yesterday, but instead of coming to San Francisco she is going to Seattle. The Pak Ling and Moyune are coming here from the Orient, but all the work on them will be done in Hongkong. The Anglo Australfan, now in Austrlian waters, will probably be overhauled in Sydney; and so it will be with others. The ‘‘strike™ or ‘lockout —it matters not which it is called—has begun to harm this port already, and this is only the beginning. The sooner the matter is adjusted the better it will be for all concerned. No one here seems to know what is going to be done with the hospital ship Relief. Yesterday she was to have sailed for Manila. During the morning word came from Washington to hold her here until the 25th inst. Later in the day an- other message came saying that noth- ing at all was to be done with the ves- sel, pending instructions from the Secre- tary of War. The hospital ship will re- main tied up at the wharf for some time to_come. Two new cases of smallpox broke out at the camp of the Thirty-first Regiment on Angel Island yesterday, and in con- sequence the transport Grant has been ordered .to the quarantine station to be fumigated. She has all the belongings of the men of the Thirty-first Regiment | aboard. These will be unloaded to the quarantine hulk, and after being fumi- gated will be sent back to the quarter-| | master. The Grant will Embabl_v be re- leased to-day and will then come back to the Government wharf, where another regiment will be put aboard and she will start for Manila. The quartermaster’s steamer General McDowell is now engaged solely in car- rying water and supplies to the deten- t camp. The tug Sea Queen in the meantime is making the McDowell's trips to the army posts. A rigld quarantine JOHN BARRETT ADDRESSES THE BUSINESS MEN Problems of Oriental Commerce.

The great interest of the Pecific | Coast demands the attention of the entire | country, and I think to-day that people ail over the wWorld are realizing that the Pacific States have an integral interest.

The Breatest opportunity of commerce In the Orient | belongs to America, but it can only be won | by competition and energetic spirit. To-day we are proving that it is possible for us to | compete with the world. Mr. Barrett then considered the Ori- | ental countries seriatim and spoke of e | Breat commercial possibflities pr | to Americans. In regard to the Philip- | ?lnes he found the same conditions exist- ng.
