HEROIC RESCUERS SAVE FIVE LIVES Three of Liner's Officers Plunge Into Sea When Lifeboat Is Capsized. 6 LOST AT LAST MOMENT One Survivor of Ill-Fiited Oklahoma Dies on Deck or Booth Une Steamer After Bring Saved by One of Elates. NEW TOniC. Jan. 6 Thirteen sur vivors were accounted for tonight out of the 3S men aboard the tank steamer Oklahoma when she broke In two last Sunday night In a storm ofC Barnegat. Another story of heroic rescue was written beside the tale told by the wireless that brought the lirst news of the disaster. Until the Booth liner (irsgory, fresh from a voyage 2000 miles up the Amazon, steamed Into port today the eight men taken off the Okla homa by the steamship Bavaria were believed to be the only ones saved. But the Gregory had five more of the ship wrecked crew that her officers had dragged out of the sea. The Oklahoma's death list stood at rr, tonight, and although her owners swept the sea with wireless messages. Imploring all vessels to look out for one of the steamer's boats that might still be adrift, there was little hope that more of the crew would, be saved. Six Drown Near Rc-ee. What little hope remained was based on the fact that the men brought to port by the Gregory said another life boat besides theirs had been launched from the sinking steamer. There was little doubt, however, that this was the boat sighted by the revenue cutter Keneca, with three frozen bodies under Its thwarts. The other boat, which car ried the five survivors within reach of the Gregory, contained only one body when it was cast adrift after the res cue. Of the Oklahoma's crew of 3S, 11 manned the boat that reached the Gregory, 19 took to the other boat and eight stayed aboard to be saved by the Bavaria. Of the larger boatload, prob ably all are lost. Of the 11 In the smaller boat, six were drowned when the boat capsized 100 yards away from the side of the Booth liner. Three Officers Brave Sea. The Gregory sighted the Oklahoma's lifeboat at 1:20 P. M. Sunday. The be numbed sailors had hoisted a aail which enabled them to keep their craft from being overwhelmed by the gi gantic seas. "Keep the sail up," bellowed Captain Aspinwall, as soon as he came within hailing distance. But the shipwrecked men failed to obey. They dropped their all and their boat lost Its steerage way and turned over. Then one after the other the three chief officers of the Gregory, without waiting to throw off jackets or boots, plunged over the side. They were First Officer R. H. Buck, Second Officer J. H. Williams and Third Officer F. D. Roberts, all young Englishmen. Buck, who has a medal given by the King of Greece for a rescue he made nine years ago in the Bay of Biscay, knew what it meant to breast a storm-beaten sea, and he tied to himself a line. The others took no lines and all but Buck paid the penalty with their lives. First Man Dies on Deck. Each officer seized a struggling ailor and brought him to the ship's side to be hauled aboard; then went back to where the lifeboat was float ing bottom side up and rescued three more. The first man hauled aboard died on the deck. The other five were kept alive after hard work by surgeon and crew. One man was seen swimming near the ship. Captain Aspinwall heaved him a life buoy at the end of a line. The man had it in his grasp when a great wave heeled the ship over and when it swung back the man had dis appeared. The lifeboat then righted Itself and as It floated past the crew of the Gregory saw a man jammed under the seats. Nothing was seen of the other four members of the boat's crew after the boat capsized. When the agents of the Booth line bore sent a report of the rescue to the homo office in Liverpool tonight they recommenced Buck, Williams and Itoberts for promotion. : Secernl Boat I'naccounted For. John Koslch, the Oklahoma messboy, husky Norwegian, said that he and his ten shipmates in the lifeboat that reached the Gregory saw the other boat 3ut off from tho opposite side of the tank steamer. "That boat," he said. ' "had almost twice as many In her as ours. I don't believe anybody was caught below. We watched the other boat until It was a speck In the distance and it seemed tj be getting along all right." Captain Lorlng A. Cates, a Boston skipper, formerly In command of the tank steamer Llgonler and a passenger on the Oklahoma, commanded the other lifeboat, Koslch said. From memory, Koslch and his com panions gave this list of the names of those in their boat who perished: 'William R. Dord, first assistant engineer, who took charge; Walter Jtannan, second assistant engineer; Alexandersen, a seaman; John Sullivan, second cook: Manuel Gomez, aSpanish fireman. The 11 members of the crew was a sailor whose name they did not know. FIELD ASSESSORS TO GO Latah County, Idaho, Likely to Vee Somer System for 1914 Work. MOSCOW. Idaho. Jan. 6. (Special.) According to Assessor Martinson, Field Assessors probably will be done away with In making assessments In .a tall County and all assessments for 114 made under the Somer system. Assessor Martinson stated today that the work of making the 1914 assess ment would begin at once. He has just completed sectional maps of the county which will facilitate the work of as sessing. While he expects the County Board to take some action at its com ing session in providing for the cruis ing of timber in the county for as sessment purposes, it is not exDected that the timber will be cruised In time for the 1914 roll and the assessment will De made on the old basis.

EMERGENCY FUND ASKED GRATS HARBOR CITIES' APPROPRI ATIOJV TO KEEP UP JETTIES. Loss to Government Can Be Averted Is Argument If Care Is Taken AVnlle Extension Is Determined OREGONIAN' NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 6. The people of the Grays Harbor country, in Western Washington, are asking Congress to make an emergency appropriation for the maintenance of the Jetties at the entrance to Grays Harbor for the en suing year, until the Army engineers can make another examination and de termine how much further the Jetties must be extended seaward to produce the desired channel depth across the bar. The old project has been practically completed, according to approved plans, and about all of the appropriation authorized has been expended. There is now a depth of from 23 to 25 feet on the bar, but the jetty work Is set tling in places, and needs repairs, and there is also necessity for further ex tension in order to secure a greater channel depth. Unless money Is provided by Con gress to protect the Jetty trestle, tram way and plant for another year, the Government will sustain a material loss before a new appropriation for construction becomes available. 1 The Chambers of Commerce of Grays Harbor cities have sent P. R. Archer, of Aberdeen, to Washington to present their request for an emergency appro priation, and he has been In confer ence with Northwestern Senators and Representatives, enlisting their sup port. A new survey of the entrance to Grays Harbor will probably be author ized in the forthcoming river and har bor bill, and this will determine the amourit necessary to carry the jetties to completion.

(Special. 1 Holding that the settlers obtained their lands under the laws of tho United States and that they could not be made defendants In the state courts, the Supreme Court today affirmed the Supervising Architect Would Demol- iak Present Structure and Put AH Conrts In Jfevr One. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 6. Senator Lane today called at the office of the supervising architect to ascertain the cause of delay in calling for plans for the new Portland building. The supervising architect was absent, but Senator Lane discovered the department had in con templation moving the Federal Courts, as well as other Federal offices to the new building, demolishing the present Postoffice and court building when the new building is completed. To do this the department says it will need an additional million dollars. Senator Lane entered a vigorous pro test against any such programme and said it was not contemplated the courts should be moved to the new building, and that It furthermore was contem plated that the present Postoffice space In the old building should be used as a branch Postoffice after the new bulld- ng was finished. According to previous estimates of the Government architect, $1,000,000 will be sufficient to erect a building such as contemplated by the Lane amendment, and the Senator will insist that this idea be carried out and that the courts be allowed to remain in the present Quarters. He will carry his protest to the Secretary of Treasury when the Secretary returns to Wash ington next week. GOOLEY HEARING SQQk ALLEGED CIRRY COl'STY SLAYER REMOVED TO GOLD BEACH.

K.-rsontial Thing Declared to Be to Command Kespect of Business Men Foreign Business to , Be Considered. .r. i lUJiiv, Jan. 6. j. I . Morgan angnea nimself today with the advo cates of a regional bank of command ing size in the dlstrti-t which is to in clude New York. Most of the other witnesses who appeared at today's hearing of the Federal reserve organi zation committee shared Mr. Morgan's views, arguing for the establishment of a regional bank in this territory which would represent 40 per cent or more or the capital of the entire Na tional system. Secretary McAdoo, of the Treasury Department, and Secretary Houston, or the Department of Agriculture, who compose the committee, intimated that tney did not share this view. Many of their questions bore upon the fea sibility of making the regional districts more nearly equal, with perhaps three banks in the Northeast instead of one. Morgan SurprlNed by Call. Mr. Morgan's appearance before the committee was a surprise to those who were attending the hearing and the banker Indicated that the invitation to give his views was something of a sur prise to him, as he had not been re quested to appear until shortly before the hour specified. Explaining that he had not consid ered carefully the division of the coun try into regional districts. Mr. Morgan said Jhe would not attempt to outline any detailed plan. "I'm trying to see how the whole United States Is to be handled," he explained. "That s all 1 m any good for." Mr. Morgan surprised his hearers by saying he did not consider it im portant whether a regional bank were located In New York. It might be as well in Boston, he believed. The im portant thing, he said, was to have the bank which served the New York district, of sufficient size to command the respect of the business men and bankers of all countries. Assets of Most Importance. As to the amount of capital In this bank, which many witnesses had said should be larger than that of any mem- Der bank. Mr. Morgan attached com paratively little importance to that phase of the matter. "It Isn't so much the capital," he said, "as the assets the bank repre sents." Secretary McAdoo handed to Mr. Mor gan a large sheet of paper, on which was an outline map of the country, and asked . him to Indicate on It at a later time the points at which he thought regional banks could be placed ana the district they could cover. Mr. Morgan said he feared he would 'not have the time to go into the matter exhaustively. He nevertheless folded up the map and walked off with it, promising to do his best. In the opinion of Henry H. Bizallon, president of the Gotham National Bank, the subject of capital of the New York regional bank was not of pri mary importance. The National sys tem of regional banks, operating un der the Federal board and having a combined capital of more than 9100, 000,000, would be looked upon, he thought, as one great banking entity which stood back of each regional bank. Gold Movement Important. Max May. vice-president of the Guar anty Trust Company, of New York, recognized as one of the foreign ex change experts of this country, was asked to what extent the foreign busi ness of the banks should be considered in framing the new system. Mr. May said that this was a most Important feature. Inasmuch a's It Involved con trol of the international gold move ment. "How Is the movement controlled now?" asked Secretary McAdoo. "Mostly we lock the stable after the cow is stolen," said Mr. May. "After the gold has moved out of the country the money rates go up and make them higher than in Europe, where the gold Is flowing." He said that In his opinion the new banking system would prove effective In controlling the gold movement. Big District Advocated. Irving T. Bush, chairman of the cur rency committee of tho Merchants As sociation of New York, said the busi ness and financial relations of all cities in the Northeast with New York were so close that it would be advisable to Include this territory, or most of it, in one district. He suggested that the western boundary be placed far enoHgh west to include Pittsburg and Buf falo and he believed that unless the committee decided to constitute a sep arate district of New England the northern boundary of the New York district should extend to the Canadian border. The southern boundary should extend to include Wilmington, Del., Mr. Bush said. If a bank were established at Baltimore. Otherwise this district should Include Maryland and the Dis trict of Columbia. . Edward E. Page, a New York mer chant, thought that the districts should do divided according to the classes of mercantile paper handled In various sections of the country. Ten cities in which regional banks might be established he named as San Francisco, Denver. St. Paul or Minne apolis. Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Atlanta, Boston, New York and Balti more. 24 OF DYNAMITERS LOSE fContlnned From Firet Page.) trial except as to the admissibility of testimony by McManlgal and Clark, who were defendants under the indict ment." Conspiracy Continuous One. Concerning the conspiracy charges the decision says: . "Both conspiracy counts plainly aver a continuing conspiracy to commit con tinuous offense against the United States. In the carriage of prohibited explosives as described. The conten tion that the purpose for which the explosives were to be used was not within Federal cognizance Is entirely outside of the Issue. If the carriage of the explosives was the subject matter of the conspiracy Its violation of the Federal statutes would establish the conspiracy within the terms of the Fed eral statute." The longest sentence affirmed is that of Frank M. Ryan, of Chicago, president of the Structural Iron Workers' Asso ciation. The penalty imposed on him was seven years in prison. He was the only defendant present in court when' the decision was read. With respect to Ryan the decision said: "This plaintiff was president of the association and its active manager. Letters written by him at various stages show his familiarity with the long course of destroying open-shop structures. Ryan wrote the letter sug gesting that reports of expenditures be discontinued 'while our trouble is on.' He signed all of the checks presented in evidence as used for the purchase of explosives. Ryan's own testimony con arms the evidences of his complicity." Proofs Reviewed in Detail. Concerning Eugene A. Clancy, of San Francisco, the decision states that his conspiring with the McNamaras and Herbert S. Hockln, who is serving his sentence, to blow up the Llewellyn Iron works at Los Angeles and lor explo sions In the East are conclusively proved. Michael J. Young, of Boston, the de cision holds to have been proved guilty of conspiracy in connection with explo sions in Boston, Springfield, Fall River and "somerset. The appeal of Frank C. Webb, of New York, was rejected on the basis of letters by him and testimony by urtie JMCMamgai, wnoso evidence fre quently is referred to by the court. Philip A. Cooley. of New Orleans. member of the executive committee of the Iron w orkers, and John T. Butler. of Buffalo, second vice-president of the organization, were held to be active conspirators with the McNamaras. John H. Berry, of St. Louis, audited tne DooKs ot tho association with spe clal reference to explosion expend! tures, as did Charles T. Baura. of Min neapolis, according to the decision. Henry W.

Munsey, of Salt Lake City, is declared to have personally asissted James McNamara In explosions at Salt Lake. Peter J. Smith, of Cleveland, O., was chielly implicated on McManigal's evidence. Paul T. Morrin, of Sir. Louis; William T. Reddin, of Milwaukee; Michael J. Hannon. of Scranton. Pa.: Murray L. Pennell. of Springfield, 111., and W. Bert Brown, of Kansas City, are declared fully implicated bv Mc Manigal's evidence.

The final contention of the defendants' counsel that the United States had not iuris- dictlon In the charges alleged was dis- aiiuweci. v Counsel for the labor officials heard the decision with keen disappointment. t,. is. z,otine, or the attorneys for the petitioners, however, said that he al ready had prepared briefs on three im portant points which had been over looked In the first appeal. REHEiVBIXG MAY BE ASKED Unless Further Appeal Is Filed, Pris oners Must Serve. INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., Jan. 6. Forty nine men, mostly Ironworkers' officials, were placed on trial in the United States District Court here before Judge A. B. Anderson. October 11. 1912. Three of the defendants. Andrew J. Km. naugh. of Springfield, 111., and Patrick Ryan and J. W. Irwin, of Chicago, were -tiiminea on motion of Charles W. Mil ler, United States District Attorney -on the same day. ' The Jury was sworn In October S and the state completed its side of the case December 1, when four other de fendants, Spurgeon P. Meadows, car penters' business agent of Indianapolis; w imam iv. Benson, ex-nresider t of the Detroit Federation of Eabor; Moulton K. Davis, ex-Ironworkers' board mem ber, of Westchester. Pa., and John R. Carroll, ex-buslness agent of the Iron workers, or Syracuse. N. Y., were dis missed at the request of Miller. The defense completed its case De cember 18 and the arguments con tinued until December 26. when the case was given to the jury. The jury reported Saturday, December 28, find ing 38 guilty and two not guilty. Two of the defendants, Ortis E. McManlgal, the confessed dynamiter, and Edward Clark, of Cincinnati, pleaded guilty during the trial. The two men acquitted by the Jury were Herman G. Seiffart, of Milwau kee, and Daniel Buckley, of Davenport, la. Judge Anderson passed sentence ranging from a year and a day to seven years in the Federal Penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., on the prisoners on December 30.

Murphy, Detroit; Hiram Kline, or ganizer for the Carpenters' Union of Muncie, Ind.; Patrick F. Farrell, New York, and James Oooney, of Lake County, Indiana. The thirty-three men sentenced left here in a special train in charge of United States Marshal Edward Schmidt and a number of special deputies at noon on December SI for Fort Leaven worth and began their sentences on New Year's day. Frank C. Dailey, the United States District Attorney who succeeded Charles W. Miller, prosecutor . the dynamite conspiracy, would make no comment on the ruling in the appeals of the men under conviction of the United States District Court of Appeals at Chicago until he had had an oppor tunity to read the court's opinion. "The usual procedure will be fol lowed In the cases of those whose ap peals were sustained and new trials ordered," Mr. Dailey said. "As soon as the mandate of the court certifying that the appeals have been sustained Is received the cases will be placed on the trial docket." Mr. Dailey said the appellants who were unsuccessful would have 30 days In which to file petitions for a re hearing. If the rehearing is denied the only course open is to petition the United States Supreme Court. Other wise the men will have to return to prison. Reddin Expects Return to Prison. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Jan. 6. "Well. I guess we will have to go back to prison now," was the comment Wil liam , E.
