A. hi SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17: Harry Lundbcrg, secretary of the Seaman's Union, stated last night that he. expected a settlement forthwith of the wage dispute as far as his union Is concerned. Negotiations between the other Unions concerned and the shipowners with a view to bringing about an early settlement of the strike dispute and ending the Pacific Coast shipping tie-up are being continued. Meantime, n rift in union ranks seems to be developing due to the widening of the breach between Joseph P. Ryan of New York, president of the International Longshoremen's Association, and Harry Bridges, militant San Francisco longshoremen's leader. Ryan has removed. Bridges as Pacific Coast representative or the Association. Yesterday the strike committee at Seattle voted com plete accord and support to Bridges and - charged Ryan with dictatorial methods and working in the Interests of the shipowners. Speaking at Madison Square Garden in New York last night. Bridges denied that he had some past to call a strike on the Atlantic Coast but rather to ascertain if the strikers on all coasts could not get together with a view to ending Xhe strike.
