Jares Vidal, secretary of the Marine Firemen’s Union, to-day wrote a letter to H.

This meeting will probably be held within a day or two, and should the union men fat! to agree to the terms to be made by the steamship lines a Strike that will involve longshoremen, firemen, water tenders, hoisting men and stokers may be precipitated. Such @ strike might involve the American transatlantic companies that employ men tn this port. A few days ago Mr. Raymond served notice on the unions that the agree- ment made by the steamship com- panies @ year ago would be terminated on July 1. In this agreement the unions were permitted to supply labor, and the companies declare they feel t the unions have not acted fairly. Raymond that in many tn- #tances incompetent men had been sup- plied, and that in one case @ steam- ship had been abandoned in the Gulf of Mexico by its Incompetent crew. He is emphatic in declaring that no mat- ter what happens the compantes will not allow this system to continue.
