SHIP'S HULL ON BEACH Mnlmsuny poor and Knipty Whisky ChPH Found, but Identity of Ves sel Is in Poubt Two Wooden Ship Overdue at Victoria. VK'TORIA. R C. AurU 1R. Piirthor ln fninirttlon recoivod today from CHrrnaimli i'olm shows tli ut disaster has oreiirrrd to sonic wooden vest'l. An (nvetiKatlon mtidu todny ly a fmtrol sent thoro by ro-qut-st of the Associated PrcSfl showed the portion of it ship's hull scattered along the beach to the west of Oarmanah. Some further wreckage is also conilnK ashore to the east ward, where the flot sam previously reported was washed on tim rocks. In addition to that previously reported, a cahln door of mahogany with maple venlilHtin panels and some empty whiskv cases, which alone of all the wreckage littered the shore line bear any mark, has come ashore. -The whisky cases are marked "Mackay A White." Two wooden vessels are due here, the Alex. Gibson. 14 days from San Francisco, in ballast for Nanalino to load coal for Alaska, and the V. F. Hnbeoek. TS days out from Sydney with a earjro of coke for Orofton, both Hath-built merican wooden ships. If the disaster has occurred to the latter vessel It is considered that part of her earjro of coke would have floated ashore. There are also a number of other vessels due, nil steel, and a number of roasting schooners. The nature of the wreckage found seems to preclude any possibility of the victim of the disaster being a metal vessel. That the wreck is an old vessel is evident from the description of the teak wood bttts with copper capping found among the wreckage littered east of Carmanah. Shipping men point out that the teak wood hilts would only be found upon a vessel of old construction. KKiEXE TO BUY WATER PLANT Votes at Special Kleelion to Acquire Its Own Water System. Kl'GKXK. Or.. April 18. (fecial.) In the special city election held here today the amendment for the purchase of the Willamtte Valley Company's water plant carried. 6T. for and l'Jo against. The vote f o r the is s u a n t e of $: HXMVO bonds for the city water system carried, m for and 171 against. The amendment intending to prevent the extension of the Oddfellows Cemetery was lost by liS votes. The voting of these bonds and the passing of the amendment authorizing the purchase of the plant w ill insure the sale of the bonds and the city will lose no time In securing as perfect a water system a it is possible to (ttt. The principal excitement of todny's election was over the proposed amend ment preventing the extension of the Odd fellows' Cemetery. The opposition in cluded several of the most prominent business and professional men of the city but th& .Oddfellows themselves per fected a very strong organisation and throughout the day hammered away against the amendment on the grounds that it was framed in the interest of the men who own land adjoining the ceme tery, that It was discriminating In Its character and that if It did pass the or dinance could not be enforced. The contest on the amendment pro posing to purchase the eity water plant s not aa keen as on the cemetery extension. Mayor Matlock haa strongly opposed for some tltn the purehas of the plant and through the use of the, report of the City Knglneer made a stubborn fight against the amendment. While of the Councilman four strongly favored the purchase, two were neutral and one was against. EDITORS TO ASK THE PLEDGE Statement No. I to Be Demanded by Washington Prens Association. TACOMA.

Mrs. CornwHlllH-Wost Helps Young Statesman In louhtful Mum-heater Contest Suffragettes Are Fighting the Cabinet. LONDON". April 18. The recent re construction of the Cabinet, which came about as a result of the retire ment of Sir Henry Oampbell-Banner-man and the assumption of the office of Premier by Herbert H. Asquith. has plungred the country into a miniature election. Not less than seven bye-elections have been made necessary to fill the vacancies created by the Cabinet changes. Four of these will be de cided during1 tile coming week. By far the most interesting will be held to return a member from the northwest division of Manchester, where the fate of Winston Churchill, who is seeking re-election on his ele vation to the Presidency of the Board of Trade, will be a surer index of the country's estimate of the past two yeare of radical rule than are the ver dicts of the smaller constituencies which recently have gone against the government. Society Woman as Campaigner. This contest will be fought hard, and the political fighters In both the domi nant parties are preparing for the fray. Mr. Churchill will again be op posed by W. Johnson Hicks, "who con tested this seat in the Union interest In the last general election. There Is also a Socialist candidate in the field, but he does not cut much figure. Mr. Churchill is showing his cus tomary dashing energy In as fiercely a waged contest as has been seen in this country in years. Mr. Churchill's mother, Mrs. Cornwallls-West, is re peating her tactics of the last election. She accompanies her son to the plat form and Is untiring in her work among the doubtful groups of electors. AH Elements Demand Pledges. Among these must be reckoned the Hebrews, the Roman Catholics and the Irish Nationalists. All three groups are demanding pledges regarding the alien exclusion bill, education and home rule respectively. All three voted for Mr. Churchill at the last election, and the defection of any one of these groups might easily spell defeat on April 24. the date of the election. The Woman- Suffragists are proving a thorn In the side of the young states man. Although Mr. Churchill has de clared himself In favor of woman suf frage, the women are overrunning the constituency In favor of the Unionist candidate, declaring that the recent at titude of the members of the Cabinet and of Parliament proves that fhe gov ernment has no Intention of forcing the cause of women to the front.
