CAUTION IS OF NO AVAIL
One Fireman Dies of Exposure in
Lifeboat After Ship Struck Mine
in Aortlt Sea Treatment by
German Sailors Considerate.
NEW YORK, March 19. Details of
the- sinking- of the American steamer
Evelyn, after' striking a mine in the
North Sea, were told today by five
members of the Evelyn's crew who
reached here todav on the steamer
Matanzas. which brought a cargo of
dyestuffs from Bremen.
- The five men were occupants of one
of the Evelyn's lifeboats and had been
picked up by a German patrol boat
and landed at Wllhemshaven. All the
-8 members of the crew, with the ex
ception of one man. a fireman, who died
from exposure, were saved, members of
the crew said, the others beingr picked
VP by another patrol boat.
According to John Morgan, an oiler
n the Evelyn, the vessel struck the
mine five mlnues after 4 o'clock in the
morning. The Evelyn, at that time, was
17 miles off the coast of Germany and
was proceeding cautiously to avoid Just
such an accident
Explosion Shakes Steamship.
The mine exploded on the port side
f the vessel, shaking the steamship
from stem to stern.
As soon as the explosion occurred
Captain David Smith, ordered the en-
arines reversed and sent officers ana
men through the ship, awakening the
crews. Two lifeboats were swung irom
the davits and in them the entire crew
desperately rowed away - from the
wtricken ship. Before the two boats had
cone many yards there was another
explosion. A second mine had hit the
ship on the starboard side forward,
blowing" up the forward part of the
vessel and almost cutting her in two.
The 2s members of the crew re
mained near the sunken vessel. At
first it was thought the ship would go
ilown at once, but after sinking until
the upper deck was submerged, the
Evelyn hung in that position for seven
hours, finally going down, bow first.
One Succumbs to Hardships.
Morgan and his companions remained
in the lifeboats for 36 hours, when they
were picked up by two German patrol
boats. The cold was intense and, owing
to the hardships, the fireman suc
cumbed. Morgan, together with Charles Kol
bernik, an oiler from Bridgetown, N.
J.; John Spencer, chief-steward; Alex
ander lones and John Williams, his as
sociates in lifeboat No. 1, were taken
to Wilhelmshaven, while the survivors
In the second lifeboat were taken to
Heligoland.
Morgan and his companions spoke
itratefullv of the treatment accorded
them by "the Germans. The sailors on
the patrol craft gave up their bunks
to the Americans and shared delicacies
with them, the Evelyn's men said.
BOARD DELAYS ELECTION
&cluoI Superintendent to Be Named
at Next Regular Meeting.
Election of a Superintendent of Port
land public schools was made a special
rder of business for the next regular
meeting of the Board of Education, to
be held April 1, at a meeting or xne
Board held in the Courthouse Thurs
day. The action was taken after the
Directors had gone into executive ses
aioru
it was expected that a vote on the
election of a Superintendent would be
taken yesterday, but two members of
the Board asked It to postpone action.
It is" understood that a majority of the
Directors have pledged their support
to Superintendent Alderman for I
election. He has the unanimous in
dorsement of the many Parent-Teacher
associations that have gone on reootd
and of numerous other bodies that are
deeply Interested in the welfare of the
schools.
navigated the straits up to the corner
where the Asiatic coast juts out at
Nagara. The correspondent adds:
Through some miscalculation, which
is quite natural when a submarine is
trying to thread a tortuous channel
without the aid of a periscope, the
hull struck the rocky shore, compell
ing the boat to 'rise to the surface. Im
mediately the submarine ,appeared, the
forts opened fire, sinking her. Only a
few of her ere w . escaped, and these
were made prisoners.
"Regarding the present situation in
the Dardanelles, Rear-Admiral Gue
pratte said the waters of the straits
were clear as far as Kephez Bernu, to
which point all vessels of the .fleet
can - safely navigate. The main mine
fields, however, are between Chanak
Kaleszi and Kilid Bahr, where also are
the main coast defenses.
"When these are removed, the rest
will be easy, although the assistance of WARF
land forces will be needed. For the! HnHLlJ
final success of the undertaking not
shadow of doubt remains. The French
fleet thus far has sustained no cas
ualties."

the authority to grant what is asked
of us. If th County Commissioners
were here, we might settle It. We will
all do everything that we can to reach

It was decided that the road bond

should use their best efforts to meet,
so far as possible, the views expressed

wages for common labor on the work
and the prevailing prices for mechanics.

CAUSE .DISPUTE
PARADE PLAN OUTLINED
EAST SIDE MERCHANTS ASKED TO
AID CHILDREN'S PAGEANT.
- 31. Plummer Tells of Preparations
for Rose Festival and Mass
Meeting; Call Is Voted.
O. XI. Plummer, who has been placed
In charge of the children's parade,
which will be held on Grand avenue
during- the Rose Festival, outlined to the
East Side Business Jlen's Club Thurs
day night the tentative plans for the
parade and asked for the co-operation
of the club in making the parade the
greatest ever held. After full discus
sion it was decided to call a mass
meeting. for next Thursday night at
the East Portland Branch Library,
East Eleventh and East Alder streets,
to lay before East Portland citizens
plans to increase interest in the chit
fdren'a parade with a view of securing
more money to llnance the display
that can be provided. AH members of
the Parent-Teacher Associations of
the East Side and especially business
men will be urged to attend this meet
ing.
One proposition suggested by Mr.
Plummer to increase the appropriation
for the parade was tor ;ast Portland
business firms to give -3 per cent of
their gross receipts for 60 days, pro
vided the residents or the East Side
will trade at these places. Mr. Plum
mer expressed the opinion that from
1500 to $2500 could be realized in this
way without any hardshio to any one.
The business men who give 3 per rent
would beneht and the parade will b
made better. Mr. Plummer said that
1250 had been assigned to finance the
children's parade, 25- cents for each of
the 4000 children who are to take
part, but that more money was needed
for decorations and for costumes for
the children.
"I am sure the Parent-Teacher Clubs
will help," said Mr. Plummer, "and
they - are a power for good in this
ity. They will get behind the mer
hants who will give the 3 per cent to
make the parade bigger and better
than it has been in the past. It has
been one feature that has gained
world-wide notice." ;
H. A. Calef and other prominent
business men expressed approval of the
proposition, and the matter will be set
forth fully at the mass meeting. The
club appointed a committee to co
operate in making the meeting a suc
cess. Members of the Rose Festival
Association will attend. Lantern slides
of past parades will be shown and a
full outline ot what is proposed for
this year will be announced.

LONDON, March 19. Evidence is ac
cumulating of the heavy British losses
in the recent fighting in Flanders, Lord
Claude Hamilton, addressing a meeting
in London last night, said that the pa
pers were not giving full lists of the
losses. His own regiment, the Grena
dier Guards, he declared, lost their
Colonel and 16 officers killed and
wounded and of 1100 men. the finest in
the army, only S00 survived.
The Cameronians also seemed to have
been almost totally wiped out. Their
lists of killed and wounded were ap
palling, i .
The system or concealment on tne
part of the military authorities, he as
serted, was most ridiculous, and he was
afraid it would have the effect of pro
longing the war.
Owing to the anxiety felt in Scotland
regarding the Sixth battalion of Gordon
Highlanders, John IS. Sutherland:, mem
ber of Parliament, made inquiries of the
government, whereupon the under-sec
retary of the War Department replied
that he greatly regretted to say that
Colonel McLean.and four other officers
had been killed and several wounded.
A dispatch to the Times gives a list
of 25 British officers killed, whose
names had not appeared in the official
lists, making a total of 338 officers

Railroad Builder.
ST. PAUL, March 19. Railroads of
this country have been driven "to the
last ditch and, are no longer able to
compete with each other or anyone
else." James J. Hill, railroad-builder,
told the railroads committees of the

cil Thursday night. A heart-to-heart
talk that became heated at times was Mlnnegota House and Senate late today
held, difference arising over wages now
being paid by Multnomah County's road
department-
Threats were made that union labor
would wage a fight on the bond issue
unless assurances were given that the
policy of Roadmaster John B. Yeon be
changed. After prolonged discussion
the labor representatives agreed to re-
at a joint hearing on the bill before
the Legislature to increase the railroad
passenger rate in this state Irom
cents a mile to cents.
W. A. Gardner, of Chicago, president
of the Chicago & Northwestern Rail
road, and Edmund Pennington. Minne
apolis, president of the Minneapolis, St.
Paul & Satllt Ste. Marie Railroad, also
appeared before the committees, quot
port to the Central Labor Council at its ing statistics to substantiate Mr. Hill's
contention that a speedy exnaustion or
the railroad properties of the country,
unless passenger rates are increased, is
but a logical step.
Even more stringent conditions will
follow the conclusion of the present
European war, Mr. Hill predicted. Next
year, he believed, would see a fait in
prices of all farm products, with wheat
down to 70 cents a bushel. Abnormal
interest' rates of money after the Eu
ropean struggle ends also were forecast
by the St. Paul financier, who said "the
war will be brought to a speedy close
because of the physical and material
exhaustion that will ensue and is ensuing."
It costs more money per train mile
to operate passenger trains than the
railroads receive for it," Mr. Hill said,
in urging the necessity for increased
revenue from passenger traffic.

Charges Against Wages Made.
Chairman Hannan said the County
Commissioners and Roadmaster Yeon
had reduced wages, taking advantage
of much unemployment. He said he be

he said he did not think he would be
doing right if ho paid more for bridge

Less than J3.50 had been paid, it was
said.
It was then decided, said the chair
man, that the Labor Council would op

American, most of the workmen being
foreigners. This wag denied by Mr.
Yeon.

Sir. Yeon Called Labor's Friend.
"Mr. Yeon has long Deen a friend
of union labor," said J. W. Ledwidge,
"and I know it, for when his build
ing was erected, he gave directions
that it should be a union Job through,
out. which it was. We have always
been grateful to him for it and this
shows that this is not a personal mat
ter, whatever. There are people here
now, members of our unions, who
cannot pay their taxes. They could
have done so if they had had work
that should have gone to them at
fair wage. We want good roads, but
if road work is going to bring our
labor conditions down, it will mean
confiscation of our property."
Gene E. Smith, president of the Cen
tral Labor Council, argued that 3 a
day should be the wage for common
labor, taking the city's schedule as
a basis. Mr. leon saia ne naa paia
(2.25 a day on the Columbia Highway,
while the contractors paid $2. During
tho Winter, he said, contractors paid
less for labor, -but he held to his orig
inal schedule.
Better Conditions Wanted.
It would not be so bad," said Mr.
Smith, "to reduce wages in dull times
if they were raised again when times
get good, but they are not. Tne cen
tral Labor Council will, undoubtedly,
be opposed to this bond issue, whether
we win or lose, unless Mr. Yeon gives
assurances of a changed labor policy.
We do not favor the construction
of the Columbia Highway or any other
highways unless they are built under
decent labor conditions. we are
our infancy in road building in this
section of the country and unless we
attend to this wage question now, God
help us. The specifications lor road
work contain numerous paragraphs in
regard to materials, etc, but they have
nothing touching wages.
A. w. Jones said that unless assur
ances were given of a changed attitude
by the county authorities he favored
going before th. Central Labor Council
tonight and fighting the bond Issue
down the line. "If the working men
have to pay for the highway with pick
and shovel," he said, "we don't want
it."
Common Ground Seems Nearer.
The two opposing camps got closer
together after considerable heated dis
cussion following Mr. Jones' remarks.
Julius Meier said he appreciated the
point of view of the labor delegates.
but they were not in a position to grant
concessions, which must come from the
County Commissioners.

ANYONE CAN GET RICH HERE IN
20 YEARS, SAYS lECTl'REB.
Dr. Russell II. Conwell Avers Economy,
. Industry and Temperance Are Only
Essentials of Success.
Dr. Russell H. Conwell delivered his
lecture on optimism, entitled "Acres of
Diamonds," at the White Temple Bap
tist Church Thursday night, for the
5102d time.
"Acres of diamonds are to be found
in Portland. There are hundreds of
young men who say, I wish that I had
been here years ago, when there was a
chance to make money,' " commenced
the lecturer, who, though 74 years old,
is rugged in appearance and has an
abundance of jet black hair.
The title of the lecture was taken
from the story of the Golconda dia
mond mines, from which the Kohh-I-Noor
and other diamonds were taken
after the owner had sold his farm to go
elsewhere to find diamonds and finally
committed suicide in poverty.
"Any young man in Portland may be
wealthy in 20 years, if he is industrious,
temperate and economical," continued
the speaker. "The greatest simpleton

rich in Portland. If he can't get rich

"Ninety-eight per cent of the million
aires in the United States are honest
Men who own their own homes are the
best citizens. It is not' necessary to be
poor or dirty to be a Christian. Money
is essential to do good with.
"The desire to become wealthy and
independent makes a man careful of his
living and develops good habits. Love
alone is greater than money, but you
must have enough money to support a
home. Charity is generally misplaced
and we prolong the war in Europe by
sending supplies."
