IT
MOVE TO REGULATE INTERCOL-
IEGIATE ATHLETICS
Rules Proposed for Amateur Stand
ing of Athletes Better Schedule
for Football Games.
WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Jan. 16..
(Special.) The associated students and
faculty of Whitman College are co
operating in the effort to organize a con
ference to regulate athletics and the other
Intercollegiate activities among the col
leges and universities of the Northwest.
it is evident that something must be
done to improve conditions la this sec
tion, especially In the matter of eligibility
and amateur rules. Probably most of the
attacks that have been published this
year regarding Individual players have
been uncalled for, the fault lvlne in the
fact that there has been no definite
agreement all around as to Just what
circumstances should bar a man from
representing, his college. Some of the
eligibility rules that the coming confer
ence will probably consider are the four-
year rule; the so-called one-year rule.
which provides that a man who has com
peted for one college in the conference
cannot ' go to another college and com
pete for it until he shall have been there
a year: a rule requiring 12 hours of regu
lar college work, and some conserva
tive amateur rule will also probably be
favored by all the colleges in the con
ference, -
But aside from these eligibility, rules,
which the various institutions will prob
ably offer, Whitman intends to propose
to the convention that this conference be
made to apply to other matters than
eligibility. Whitman favors an annual
conference track meet, such as Is held
in the East and Middle West, Instead of
the small meets that are In vogue here.
Whitman also wants to submit to the
convention a plan for a conference ora
torical contest.
Another big proposition to be proposed
Is the plan of a football schedule whereby
each Institution In the conference shall
meet each of the others In football. Here
tofore the schedules have been more or
less "hit and miss." so that some of the
colleges would only meet two or three of
those In her class. For Instance, Oregon
Agricultural College played only Oregon
last year. The uncertain result of the
football season for the last few years
has been a result of just such unsatis
factory schedule arrangements.
Whitman has taken the Initiative in the
matter by inviting the six big institutions
In the Northwest to meet in Walla Walla
on February 7 and 8.
PAY FOR BLOCKADE RUNNER
Owners of Boat Lost to Japs Can
Collect Insurance.
SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 16. (Special.)
For the loss of the steamship Tacoma,
seized by the Japanese government in
1906 as a blockade runner while en route
between Seattle and Vladivostok, the
Northwestern Steamship Company may
collect J13.900 against the Maritime Insur
ance Company, of England, the insurer
of the vessel, the full amount of the pol
icy. Judge C. H. Hanford so decreed In
a decision handed down in the Federal
Court this morning.
The Tacoma was carrying to Vladl
vostok, under false orders. It Is alleged,
9000 barrels of beef and other contraband
of war for the Russian forces. In the
OMatsk Sea the vessel was caught In the
Ice and detained for more tlan 40 days.
Fuel and food almost exhausted, the ship
started for the nearest Japanese port to
provision. A Japanese war vessel cap
tured the ship and a prize court con
demned her. The underwriters declined
to pay the war policy because of the fact
that false orders were given the captain
by John Fosene, then president of the
Northwestern Steamship Company, and
that the vessel deviated from her course
against the provisions of the war clause.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT
Halsey Woman Arrested in Al
bany for Shoplifting.
HELD TO CIRCUIT COURT
Mrs. Ellen Vanderllp, 58 Tears Old,
Tries to Swallow Morphine When
, Her Thefts Are Discovered.
Her Relatives Give Ball.
ALBANY, Or.. Jan. 16. (Special.) Mrs.
Ellen Vanderllp, a woman 58 years old.
residing one mile west of Halsey, was
caught shop-lifting in the store of Cham
bers & McCune in this city at noon today.
She was detained in the Sheriff's office
all 'afternoon and this evening Justice
Swan held her for the Circuit Court
under 500 bonds, which were furnished
by Halsey relatives.
The woman was in the store of Cham
bers & McCune early this morning, and
her actions then engendered suspicions
aroused on her former trips to Albany,
and when she returned about noon she
was watched. EL H. McCune saw her
take a shirtwaist, two collars and some
ribbons and then detained her until an
officer could arrive to make the arrest.
While McCune telephoned to the Sheriff,
she fought desperately to get away and
pleaded hysterically for liberty. She also
tried to swallow some morphine and this
leads to the belief that in her hysterical
condition she may have meant to commit
suicide.
A grip Mrs. Vanderllp carried was
found to contain two pairs of shoes, a
lace curtafi, some ribbons and remnants
and even some bologna sausage. The dry
goods were - Identified as coming from
three different stores and the sausage
from a local meat market, all unpaid for.
She denied ownership of the grip and
tried by threats to force her 6-year-old
grandchild, Willie Corcoran, who accom
panied her, to lie about Its ownership.
Later she confessed to today s thefts,
but claimed it was her first offense, ex
cept that she took some ribbons two
weeks ago from the store where she was
caught today. Mrs. Vanderllp says she
has been making trips to Albany twice a
month to buy morphine for herself and
alcohol for her husband, Henry Van
derllp, being unable to procure the
articles in Halsey. It is suspected she
also practiced some shop-lifting on these
trips, and employes of Chambers & Mc
Cune are positive she took several arti
cles there on her last trip here.
The woman admits using morphine for
eight years, and in her grip was a large
bottle of the drug as well as two bot
tles of alcohol which 6he purchased today
at a local drugstore. This Is the second
arrest of a woman for shop-lifting here
in a little more than a week, Mrs. Kate
Murray being caught January 8, stealing
a purse in Woodworth's drugstore and
having a score of stolen articles in her
possession.
UNEARTH HISTORIC RELICS

WEST COAST.
Old Papers at Sitka Show That
Alaska Purchase Should Have
Been Much Larger.
SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 16. (Special.)
Papers discovered In old Russian archives
at Sitka, Alaska, the former capital of the
northland when It was a part of the
Czar's vast domain, Indicate that bylrlgh.t
the whole western coast of North Amer
ica belongs to the United States, as that
portion now under British control orig
inally belonged to the empire of the white
bear and should have gone with Alaska
when It was ceded to the United States in

been of the greatest Importance at the

friend of Count Leo Tolstoi.
Nabakoff was sent to Sitka by the Rus
sian government to make certain re
searches among the old papers lor nis
torical data when the important discov
ery was made. The documents plainly
show how the Czar's realm was enlarged

America, and will ultimately lead scholars
to nhllosonhize on what might have Deen
had American statesmen, in the days gone
bv. been Dossessed of this wonderful In
formation. The documents are written
in old Russian and Nebakoff says they
hed some verv interesting as well as new
light on the .early history of the far
north.
