MARSHAL STAYS AUCTION Globe Navigation Company and Tort oT rortUnd Commission Reach Ajrrwnicnt Over Claim for Savins Craft. Inlted Statu Marshal S-ott will not offer to dismasted schooner William Nottingham and her lumber cargo for sale Tuesday mornlnic. In accordance with an order signed by Judge oiver ton. In the United States District Court Monday, as a settlement was reached yesterday between the Globe Navigation i'ompany. owning th vessel, and the I'orl of Portland Commission, by which tiie Nottingham was libeled for salvage. Th- Fort of Portland Commission, at Its January session, fixed a price of t-:.f for services of the tug; Waliula tn towing; the Nottingham Into tha river October . after sUe had been abandoned by her crew, members of which were rescued by the British schooner David Evans. The figure did not Include salvags for the tug'a com pany, and it was stipulated that tha Clone Navigation Company must nego tiate Independent with the officers and men to ascertain what they would ac cept. It was said yesterday that the Pr.r of Portland Commission would ba paid IJOOO for the claim of the organi sation and the Wallula'a complement, and that the Nottingham would ba re leased, the Glob Navigation Company to pay all costs. After the. Nottingham was towed to Portland and lifted on the public dry dock It was estimated that her repairs would cost Ili.OiV). but an Item not in cluded was damase to her lumber cargo, which had been badly stained by being; soaked with salt water and not dis charged at once. The vessel's owners and the under writers were unable to reach an under standing as to tha repairs, and it was contended by the underwriters that, as the schooner had been Insured for total loss they would not be responsible for repairs and that the cost, as estimated, would not brlns; the rasa within the scope of what would ba termed a con structive total loss. Blue were received on the work recently aa a means of ar riving at another estimate, and It Is be lieved that the work will be performed here. CUSTOMS CRAFT KEPT Rl'SY launch If. W. Scott Travels 122 Miles Since Launching. Probably one of the best illustrations of how great was the need of Collector of Customs Malcolm's force for a vessel with which to patrol on the river and transport Inspectors to and from for eign vessels Is offered in a summary of the movements of the launch H. W. Scott, which has been In commission six months and in that period has cov ered 122 miles. Had the same distance been traveled In continuous operation It Is estimated that 13 S days would have been required. In the way of fuel T'.'O gallons of gasoline were used. The H. W. Scott has been used to ex cellent advantage at night on patrol duty In rkasing motorboata and other craft that navigated without lights, and In cases where vessels were moored and no Illuminations displayed to warn others of their presence. Aa a conse quent fines Imposed for vlolationa of the law have been turned Into the Treasury Pepartment In greater amount than before. While the launch Is not .elf-supporting, the fines collected have offset her operating expenses In a measure. SAX FRANCISCO GETS TASKS Hrlti.-h Colombia AIo Strong in Ob taining Xew Trade. "San Francisco and British Columbia ports appear to be the principal ones iri line for beneflta accruing from the Panama Canal In the way of getting Kuropean steamship lines. said J. K. l-aldtaw. manager of the California & Atlantic Steamship Company, yesterday following his return from San Frin nsco. "In the South the gains to be derived from encouraging the new line are appreciated and the city is In an ad vantageous position, because, with the waterfront being governed by the Har tar Commission, arrangements are be ing made for bertha by the fleets in tend'ng to operate. In British Colnm Ima I understand every encouragement Is being given the newcomers and even lines now operating to establish a per manent trade In advance of the Canal's opening are getting considerable cargo to and from the North. Portland has the business, but the commercial Inter ests should make a stronger bid for the new trade as a means of increasing tha Importance of the harbor as a leading one on the Coast."

DANGERS TO GIRLS CITED Mrs. Lola G. Baldwin Urges Legis lation to Remedy Evils. In the course of her address yester day .afternoon before the Ladies' Aid Society ' of the First Congregational Church on the work of the department of public safety for women. Mrs. Lola G. Baldwin, head of the department, told of the efforts that are constantly being put forth In behalf of the women who are subjected to various dangers. Mrs. Baldwin gave a number of in stances where the morals of young women had been safeguarded. Phe said the department now has attorneys en gaged In preparing data for use in formulating a bill providing for a re vision of the laws where the rlghts-of women are Involved. One measure that she considered re quired immediate attention is that re lating to cases appealed from the Mu nicipal Court. Plie said that on ac count of the long delay in trying these cases many were lost. In cases where girls are concerned the girl is taken away from her vocation for a time, while the man Is not inconvenienced, as be is ahle to obtain bail. Mrs. Baldwin also spoke of the In dustrial school for women which it Is proposed to establish in Oregon. She believed it would help In the solution of the problem of reforming wayward girls. "Oregon." said Mrs. Baldwin, "Is one of the eight states that make no provision for women who have led wayward lives. There Is nothing but the Jail for them. We hare such pro vision for men and boys. The girl, however, needs It far more than the boy. If either must do without an Insti tution, for the boy. In the nature of things, is not In as great peril. There are scores of cases that we cannot handle because we have no means of caring for girls. The .establishment of an Industrial school would mean that girls can learn some work by which they can earn their living, when they leave the institution, as at present they cannot." Mrs. Baldwin leaves tonight for the Kast. where she will visit the industrial schools of Utah, Illinois, Denver, Colo., and other states, with a view to gather ing Information for use in the home to be established in Oregon. MINUS CLUB WILL MEET D. O. Lively to Be Asked About Care of "Wooden Duck." Rallying to its accustomed meeting place, the Minus Club will assemble at the Commercial Club at noon tomorrow to devise means for renewing the defi cit which brought it into existence and which was wiped out recently when Harvey Beckwlth informed the mem bers that the board of governors of the Commercial Club would pay all. The Minutiae will also call upon D. O. Lively to give an account of how he has cared for the club's wooden duck since appointment as livestock director of the Minutiae with full control of the club's fowl In the announcement of the meet ing, L. C. McArthur, the secretary, says: "At the last meeting (Hon.) George M. Hyland was elected Minus Flus and the very pressing duties of this office made it necessary for him to withdraw from the race for Con gress. If George can make such a sacrifice for the Minus Club, It be hooves every member to be present at the next meeting." An entire new list of officers probably will be elected In case a deficit can be devised to warrant further continuance of the club's existence. CUT MAY BE DAMPER Milwaukee's Sliced Dividend Likely to Check Extensions. Further extension of railway lines to the Pacific Coast is not given much en couragement by the recent action of the Chicago.
