Now, is not this so, Mr. Hanify? Question 5—Yes, according to the in- stroctions from the union, I informed Mr. Hanify that each individual mem- ber would fulfill his individual agree- ment, and several sels arrived here with cargo and passengers, bound for San Pedro, where the crew took them at the old rate. The passengers were landed and the cargo was discharged. Now that is a fact. Is it not, Mr. Hanify? No man was called out down south “until the longshoremen and the seamen in the steamers had been were called out from the steamers up north until you had refused to arbi- % NATURE BAINGS GREAT HARVEST Crop Repo:for 1906 in California Shows Rich Yield. 11 Fruits Except Apri- cots in Flourishing Condition, ‘While the heavy hand of devastation laid waste so much of San Francisco and seared a dozen small cities ere it ceased its revels, bounteous nature report covering every county in the State of California—this season sur- passes any previous one for the value and size of the agricultural crop raised. While the unusual rain did a little damage in some sections of the Statef in other sections it brought great benefits. iy The hay crop for the year will be above the average. The rain did some damage to the hay, discoloring it a lit- tle in certaln sections. Wheat and barley are topping all other years for yield. The grain is full and strong, with a good acreage. Apricots will bea little light, but prunes will be heavy. Peaches promise to excel other years' harvests. Grapes are in splendid con- dition, looking better than ever before.

The statement that seamen are leav- ing the sea and going into other call- ings as fast as they get the oppor- tunity is true. They do so because, in spite of the long hours and hard labor, they cannot earn sufficient to support a wife_and family. This is nothing new. The statement has freely been made to our employers and to the pub- lic, under oath and otherwise. Question 9-—-The price -of lumber might well be left to be discussed in public by the men who sell it and who also operate steam schooners, and the men who buy it to build houses for the destitute. I shall shortly be able to furnish the definite figures if that be necessary, and they will not be so technical as to deceive the uninitiated.

Mr. Schwerin, you are advertising ll\%t Eastern freights cannot go to the Orient and California freight cannot go on the Korea because of labor troubles. Is it not true that your longshoremen had asked you for nothing and that | they by no ‘stretch of the imagination cou{d be interested in the steam schoon- ers? Is it not true that you carry no union men QT that the laber trouble that you havel on your docks and ves- sels is absolutely of your own making and that it may be terminated at any time by your will? Is it not true that your longshoremen are now working for you sad are willing to work for you? Upon your honor, Mr. Schwerin, as a man and a naval officer, are these not facts? . Mr. Dimond, you are informing those who have freight on the Californjan that you cannot discharge that freight on account of labor troubles. Is it not true that your longshoremen have asked you for nothing, that they are willing to work for you, that they are eager to work for you, and that you have locked them out? If this is_true, why do you tell the people of San Fran- cisco that you cannot get your vessel discharged? Plainly some one must be miginforming you, Mr. Dimond. Mr. Goodall, what is your interest in the steam schooners? Up to the pres- ent you have not loaded them or dis- charged them. Mr. Pearce, your vessels carry gen- eral cargo and passengers. Your long- shoremen asked you for nothing: they are willidg to work for you; they are working for you now. You have locked out the sailors, firemen and cooks. You are not interested in the steam schoon- |ers. Why have you, at least partially, stopped the freight and passenger traf- fic up and down the coast to the annoy- ance ang great inconvenience of the ublic? Please explain to the people of an Francisco? ASKS FOR AN EXPLANATION. Mr. Executive Board, please give to the public of San Francisco the declara- tion and purposes and the constitution of your organization in order that it may be known, and please furnish a copy to the United States District At- torney in order that he may ascertain whether you are not an organization in | restraint of irade within the meaning of the laws of the country. Relttlnf to the questions whether I can substantiate the following state- ment, “Almost everybody is out with a big knife cutting for himself,” etc., I | desire to say that I am reliably in- | formed that the Spring Valley Water Company were paying their collectors | from $125 to $150 per month, and that |they are now paying them $75; that the | office help of that corporation has been | reduced in wages 33 to 50 per cent. The Labor Commissioner reported to |the Mayor that his investigations had Em"n a reduction in the wages paid | by a number of large corporations. I am further informed that mercantile establishments are reducing in a large | number of instances the wages of their |clerks and salesmen. Rents, provisions and other necessaries of life are largely increased in price. It is a notorious fact, known to all men, that the all im- portant building Thaterial has been very much increased in price. Yes, the seamen held a meeting im- mediately after the disaster and adopt- ed a resolution that wages and condi- tions remain as before, and instructing Dave Johns at Dr. Glover dressed the wound. you are carrying so that when they do g0 as passengers in your vessels they know the risk they run, and when you endeavor to hire men who ai not Chinamen or Japanese insist, please, that vour agents shall tell those men the truth and inforra them of the kind of work required of them. You will thus do the public and those men a service and yourselves a credit as men loyal to this community in its distress. A, FURUSETH. - Hammersmith & Field.
