TTtt? "-XTXO- ORFGOXTAX. MONDAY, MAY 4, 190S. FLEET TOSSED BY HEAVY GALE Illinois Parts Anchor-Chain : and Drifts in Shore at i Monterey Harbor. HEADS FOR THE ALABAMA Heroic Work or Helmsmen Prevents AYhat Seemed Like Collision. Drifts 800 Yards Before the Emergency Anchors Hold. MONTEREY, Cal., May 3. A north west gale sweeping into the harbor gave the. eight ships of the second di vision of the Atlantic fleet several Sours of watchfulness last night and cut off all communication with the shore. A serious accident was narrowly averted when the battleship Illinois. 1 second in line from the Alabama, flag; ' .ship of Rear-Admiral Sperry, parted her anchor chain in the height of the blow and went drifting toward the ihore. The Illinois headed directly for the Alabama and it looked for a time as though a collision was imminent, wjr heroic work the helmsman managed is steer the drifting ship away and the 'nly damage done was the tearing vway of the port gangway of the Ala- , bsma. The Illinois driftly fully 8J0 yards before her emergency anchors, ent spinning into the white-capped waters, finally held fast. .. The high winds continued today and the Illinois made no attempt to re- ' gain her position in the fourth division column. I As early as 9 o'clock last night it was announced that no more steam launches would run between the ships and shore. Many stout little steamers ', that already had made the shore were held In the sheltered waters and the launches near the ships were hauled out of the water. A thousand liberty men were ashore and the problem of finding a place for them to sleep se verely taxed the available buildings in Monterey. . The patrol officers on duty had to share the lot of the men and sleep on hard pine floors with only their capes to protect them. Admiral Sperry's barge from the Alabama had a hole stove in her bow as the result of 'a collision with the ship's gangway and was beached later in the night. A schooner laden with lime also went ashore, and a gasoline launch In which an unfastened lighted lantern had been left burning caught fire and went to the bottom. It is believed the anchor lost from the Illinois when the cable parted last night may not be recovered, as the water is too deep for divers to work In, All of the ships managed to send boats to the shore today at intervals. It was said, however, that if the blow continued it might delay the departure of the second squadron ships for Santa Crux tomorrow. BEADY TO RECEIVE THE FLEET San Francisco Gaily Decorated in Honor of Great Occasion. SAN FRANCISCO. May 3. In eager ex pectation San Francisco Is awaiting the arrival ,of the Atlantic battleship fleet. The meats are baked, the house is in order and the feast is set. The members of the household are clothed In their best raiment and are busy with the final ar rangement of bow and other adornment. Fluttering flags, Navy pennants and streamers and Rear-Admiral Evans' pic ture are everywhere. Market street is a long vista of bunting in the National colors and flags waving from white poles 60 feet high, every 100 feet, one large and a cluster of five smaller flags flying from each one and terminating in the huge red. white and blue shield on the tall Ferry tower. On each side of the tower, stretched on long wire cables, are the words "Welcome to the Atlantic Fleet," in the kaleidoscopic colors of the International Navy Signal Code nags and V pennants, while on Tel graph Hill the word "Welcome" stands in letters 15 feet high which can b. read for many mile, and which at night will be il luminated by 2GO0 electric lights Fes toons of incand scent lights run on both sides of th principal m . i h hi . . inent buildings are outlined in elcctrio bulbs, furnishing at night a most mag nificent illumination. It is estimated that there will be be tween 700,000 and 800.000 people H San Francisco on the day that the fleet ar rives. The suburban cities adjacent to the bay and towns within a radius of 50 miles will practically be depopulated, and will contribute 200,000, while the rail road companies estimate that they will bring at least 150,000 from points beyond as far east as Omaha and from British Columbia on the north, to the interna tional boundary on the south. The South ern Pacific Company has placed 250 ex tra cars and sleepers in commission in addition to their regular equipment. Twenty special trains from California points and the Pacific Coast states are scheduled. Three extra trains are re ported out of Portland by the Southern Pacific and all trains north, east and south are running in two and three sec tions. Practically all reservations in the big hotels are taken. The Fairmount stopped making reservations more than a month ago. While the hotels are rapidly filling up the fleet reception committee headed by ex-Mayor James D. Phelan gives as surance that there will be ample accom modations. More than 50,000 rooms in San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland have been listed with the committee which has established an Information bureau at the Ferry building. On Wednesday forenoon from the vantage point of hill and steamer will be seen the most Imposing and spec tacular parade In modern naval history. In which a total of 49 warships will en ter through the Golden Gate in single line formation, and drop anchor midst the roar of 12-inch guns, the shouts of three-quarters of a million people and the shrieks of steam whistles. Wednesday evening the first formal reception, followed by a ball, given in honor of Secretary Metcalf and the of ficers of the fleet, will take place at the Fairmount, and on Thursday evening. In the name of the Governor of the atate to Secretary Mjtcalt, the seven Admirals and the commanding officers of the fleet. Six hundred guests, among thern Gov ernors from seven states and the Con sular representatives of other nations, will sit down in the elaborately decorated banquet-room. On Friday evening the citizens of San Francisco will banquet Secretary Met calf and 300 officers of the fleet at the St. Francis. This will be the official banquet, given in the nam? of the city, and it Is hoped that Admiral Evans will . be present. The banquet will be fol lowed by a ball at the Fairmount. given t by the FYidajt Night Club, the exclusive nodal club composed of San Francisco's "WOl" a M. Greenway, manager of the club and one of the most prominent social leaders In the city, will be mas ter of ceremonies. This ball will be the most exclusive and brilliant social func tion of the festivities. Secretary of the Navy Metcalf and Mrs. Metcalf, the Admirals and principal officers of the fleet have accepted invitations, which are limited to 600. "Nemo" "W. B.," "C. B. a la Spirite" Corsets Fitted by ONLY Expert Corsetiere in Portland KHifS SAILORS SEE THE BIG TREES ' Thousands Throng the Parks Sun day at Santa Crnz. SANTA. CRUZ, Cal., May 3. The visit of bluejackets to the big trees was a feature of the Sunday pro gramme at Santa Cruz for the enter tainment of the Atlantio fleet. More than 3000 sailors came ashore during the morning and boarded special trains for the grove, six miles distant. Hun dreds of civilians also took advantage of the opportunity to visit the park and the grounds were thronged with visitors all day. Bluejackets were car ried free on the train. Rear-Admiral Thomas spent all day aboard the flagship Connecticut going over his private business and matters connected with the fleet whieh. In the rush of entertainment had been neg lected. He sent a telegram to Admiral Evans recommending that the Con necticut be sent to Monterey arly Tuesday morning for the purpose of bringing the Admiral here to join the fleet. This is on account of the rough water off the local port, which has made landing very difficult. . Albany Going to See the Fleet. ALBANY, Or., May 3. Special.) Al bany will probably observe a holiday on the day the battleship fleet stops at Ya quina Bay.' Plana are already being formed to have all local business houses close on that occasion and the schools may also grant a holiday. Excursions will be run from Albany to Newport and the day will be a red-letter occasion on Yaquina Bay. 11,1 IS GI1C TROUBLE BRITISH TROOPS IX CLASH WITH AFGHAN FORCE. Tribesmen Repulsed, but Further Attacks Are Feared Plot to Mur der Europeans Is Discovered. LONDON, May 3. India is a source of considerable uneasiness to the British government at the present mo ment. The difficulties with the Mo hammedans seemed on the eve of set ment when on Saturday, according to reports received here, a new danger threatened. An attpmnt wn n mnrlA hv n lnrirn A fffha n fnroo niimha.lna. t m ty I 13.000 to 20,300, which went across the border, divided into two bodies, to seize the blockhouse at Khyber Pass near Landi Ksol. The attack was re pulsed with trifling casualties among the British, but the Afghans remained in front of Landi Ksol and another body is reported to be moving Into the Bazar Valley by way of Llsote Pass. General Wilcox, who is in command : of the forces recently dispatched to quell the troubles, has gone to Jamrad, a few miles west of Peshawur, at the entrance of Kryber Pass, and is hasten ing forward his troops to meet the ev development. All frontier telegrams are carefully censored at Simla. From Calcutta comes news of the discovery of a plot to murder Europeans by means of bombs. The conspiracy appears to be of an extensive character and many arrests have been made. The responsi bility for the plot is placed on the natives, a number of incriminating documents having been seized, together with a supply of bombs and other ex plosives. The discovery of the plot was made through the arrest and conression of the author of the bomb outrage at Almocufferpur, the capital of the prov ince of the same name in Bengal, In which two Europeans were killed. The morning papers, referring to the Indian news, generally concur th.it there is no cause for alarm or for grave anxiety if, as is hoped, tne Ameer is not directly responsible for the atti tude of the Afghan border tribes, but they point out that, until the Ameer's attitude Is definitely Known, it be hooves the government to be alert and prepared for eventualities. PEOPLE WITH GOVERNOR (Continued From First Page.) "error" in the telegram. The high minded Mr. Fassett, fearing that Cas sidy might listen to the siren song of the lobby, wired urging him to stand by the Governor, and some low-minded telegraph operator inserted the word "not," thereby making a complete change in Cassidy's "orders." Of course the Western Union has fired the offending operator. Fassett says the reason he had not made a statement before was because it was Senator Cassidy's affair. Naturally, the fact that Fassett is seeking re election this Fall has nothing, to do with it in the opinion of his friends, but certain curious people are asking why Fassett has not "made gdod" with Governor Hughes by prosecuting the telegraph operator. The Governor has made no comment on this remarkable occurrence, but he will be heard in Senator Cassidy's dis trict. It Is now believed that the vic tim of the "forged telegram" will find it advisable to get In line at the spe cial session. Some of the more enthusiastic foes of the race tracks believe that with Cassidy's vote the anti-gambling bills will be passed, but the experienced Hughes men are skeptical and will con tinue so until the votes are counted. Under the state constitution It re quires a clear majority of the entire membership, not a majority of a quorum, to pass a bill. This means that until the reform bills receive the votes of 76 of the 15J Assemblymen, and 26 of the 51 Senators they cannot become laws. When the fight came up last month, 25 Senators voted for the anti-racetrack gambling bills, and 25 voted against them. The fifty-first seat was vacant, owing to the sudden death of Senator Franchot, of Niagara. The en thusiastic Hughes men figure that they will hold the 25 men they had in April, together with the man elected in Franchot's place and Senator Cassidy, a total of 27. Besides this, they hope that the Governor's personal crusade will drive several other bolters back into line. But at the time the original ballot was taken, experienced men at Albany expressed the opinion that the race track forces did not bring up all their reserves, and that they had several votes "under cover" to be used if necessary. The fact must not be lost sight of that the friends of the racetrack can accom plish just as much by absenting them selves from the special session as they could by attending and voting against the measures that are favored by Governor Hughes. On the other hand the reform bills need 26 votes, and only by personal attendance of Senators at Albany can they be secured. It is a bad season for colds just now and State Senators are delicate bits of organism. Nobody would be surprised If several of the Governor's allies developed pneumonia or house maid's knee, or some other complaint Some drug stores sell some things at cut rates some of the time, others some thing at cut rates all of the time, but the "OWL" Drug store sells ALL drugs ml cut rates ALL of the time.

Besides this, a good proportion of the Legislature are indignant that a special session should be called. Assemblymen and Senators receive an annual stipend of i500. All they will get out of this extra attendance Is traveling expenses, and naturally that Is a trifling matter. So scores of them went away from Albany, jeering at Hughes and declaring that he would be compelled to hold his "extra matinee" without their much-to-be-de-slred presence. The fact that may cause them to change their minds, however, is that all of them are anxious to "come back" next year. And the people throughout the state are beginning to exhibit a marked degree of interest in 'what their Albany Representatives have done and also what they failed to do. The general opinion is that they will deeply resent any ab senteeism, and the fact that pay is shut off will not operate as an excuse. Futhermore, all cases of illness are bound to be investigated and the investi gations will not be whitewashing affairs at that. "You want a certificate from a reliable physician, one who can bo believed by the general public." was the warning given to one New York City Senator who had freely predicted that he would not be In Albany again this Spring. "Stay at home now and you will stay away for the rest of your natural life." Despite this the racetrack forces are calmly confident. They are convinced that they have the situation well in hand and are in a position to administer an other crushing defeat to Hughes. - But they do not like the Governor's conduct in dashing about the state de livering speeches to throngs of interested voters. Tttey say It is not dignified. But the Governor keeps righ,t' ahead and will continue to do so until the Legislature meets. He believes he is making headway and that the Legislature will be forced, re gardless of the feelings of certain mem bers, to' respond to the voice of the people. GOMPERS ADVISES LABOR Says Political Independence Mast Be Asserted. CHICAGO, March S. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, addressed 1500 men and women in a mass meeting today, exhorting his hear ers to cast off the yoke o party domina tion and to assert their political inde pendence. He declared the intention of the labor party to seek the defeat of any candidate for public office who is not tn sympathy with the aims of laboring men, not excepting aspirants to the "highest office In the land." The Sherman anti-trust law must be amended, he declared, and referring to the Wilson bill, he said that if it was not passrd it would be the fault of the work lngmen. John Mitch. '11, ex-president of the United Mineworkers, who presided, said that if one-sixth of the workers voted independently of party Influences i tne progressive legislation which labor demands would be enacted.
