Tho Jury of awards at tho Panama-
Pacific International exposition has
awarded the Southern Pacific, com
pany tho grand prize for Its display
of equipment In tho transportation
building, thereby placing the official
Btamp of approval on what has been
recognized as one of the most Instruc
tive exhibits of the change In and de
velopment of track, car and locomo
tive In the last half century.
On one of tho tracks stands "C. P.
No. 1" the old C. P. Huntington the
first locomotive of the Central Pacific,
Itself the first transcontinental rail

cific mallet locomotive 4043 on an ad
jacent track. It waa built In 1912,
one of the largest In the world. Fit
ted with electric Insandcscent nitro
gen headlight, by which an engineer
can see a man on the track a quarter
of a mile away, or about twice the
distance needed to atop a train at
forty mile an hour and with cab in
front, it reflect! the advancement of
half a century. Ita total weight isj
25,000 pounds.

In the last two months trie Ford Mo
tor company haa produced tha aaorn
ous total of 90,359 cart, tail tnoladlaf
43.K49 cars In March and 46,610 cara In
April.
This not only Insures the comple

cars, between August 1914 and August
1915, burring the totally unfnrsccn,
and tho rebating of all Ford purchas
rs within that period, but It means
that the goal will undoubtedly be
reached before tho promised time, Au
gust first. In fact, the three-hundred
thousandth car will probably leave the
Ford assembly early In July and the
production pnee will continue almost
unabated, bo tremendous Is the do
tnand (hla year the wprld over for
Ford cars.
Then on August first will begin the
task of rebating about $15,000,000 to
Ford-purchaaers In accordance with
the terms of the Ford profit-sharing
announcement. Each of the 300,000
or more Ford purchasers- will be mail
ed, of course, an Individual check,
probably of $30. The postage alone
on this huge mall means ut least
$6000.

WASHINGTON, June 30. The Do
minion freight liner Armenian, flying
the Hrlilah flag and carrying mules
from Newport News, Va.. to England,
was torpedoed and sunk on Monday
night by thn German submarine l'-39
off Cornwall, England, and nearly a
acore of American muleteers were re
ported lost, according to messages re
ceived by the state department today
from Consul John 8. Armstrong. Jr,
at Ilrlstol.
Twenty nine men In all were lost
and 10 Injured.
The news created a sensation in of
ficial quarters, aa It was the first
raae of loas of American Uvea since
the sinking of the Luitttania. The
gravity of the Incident, however, and
the action of the Washington govern
ment depend almost entirely on
whether the Armenian was chartered
by the Drltlsb government an was, in
fact, a transport of war, aboard which
Americana would sail at their own
risk, or whether she was an unarmed
merchantman.
In the latter case, even the carrying i
or contrabrand. the ship should have
been subject to a search and those
aboard transferred to a place of safe
ty before the destruction of the vessel
was attempted.

turn this morning from a Ion; trip
throng, i centrul and routhern Oregon
with other members of tut state fish
and game commission, Governor
Wlthycombe expressed hearty approv
al of the irrgatlon project near Klam
ath Falls and poke enthusiastically of
Crater lake.
"Although I have been in Oregon
more than 40 years, this was my first
view of Crater lake," said Governor
Wlthycombe, "but If I can have my
way it will not be the last. Much as
have heard of the lake, I never fully
realized until now what a magnificent
ansot it 1b. Truly there Is nothing In
all the west that can compare with It.
It is a scenic- gem beyond value and
certainly beyond description. When I
went there my expectations were high
and they were not only met but even
surpassed by what I saw.
'Crater lake deserves everything
that has been said of it and a great
deal more that is the highest enco
mium I can give."
In the trip the governor covered
400 miles by automobile In central
Oregon and 600 miles by railroad and

The Larsen cleared from San Diego

at Socorro Island, which is uninhab
ited and 800 miles from the Mexican
FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS.

-
Upon leaving San Diego, Captain
Paul H. Schulter was instructed that
a super-cargo, Walter Page, would
take charge. After being 2i hours
out of port, the captain was instructed
to lay a course to Socorro island. It
was reached in 11 days and the Annie
Larsen lay there a month awaiting the
Maverick, which failed to show up.
Captain Schulter then sailed for
Acapulco to replenish his supplies.
An attempt was made there by the
Carranza troops to seize the vessel
and it was only through the assistance
of the United States gunboat Yorkton,
that she was able to leave.
Headwinds interfering with her re
turn to Socorro and her supplies run
ning low again, the Annie .Larsen
made her way north to Gray's Harbor
as the most convenient port on ac
count of trade winds. She reached
Hoquiam Tuesday, and was at once
seized by Deputy Customs Collector
R. L. Sebastian.
The vessel's cargo is valued at $300,
000. It originally came to Kansas
City and was shipped to New York. It
went then by steamer to Galveston,
then by rail to San Diego.
Captain Schulter expressed aston
ishment at a marine report that the
tanker Maverick arrived at Hilo a few
days ago carrying a cargo of arms
which the captain said had been trans
ferred from the Annie Larsen.
