' Few details of the storm's work
couth or north of here had been re
ceived early tonight. In Corpus
Christi, however, the gale had car
ried almost everything movable be
fore it. In its -wake it had left de
molished Summer cottages along the
beach front, thousands of dollars' dam
age to buildings in the business sec
tion and a heavy sea running in Corpus
Christi Bay.
Waves whipped over the beach in the
northern section of the city, beaching
small craft and carrying up on the
shore debris from a score of docks and
email bathing pavilions. Lloyd's Pier,
a pleasure resort, had been almost com
pletely demolished at S o'clock tonight.

MIL HUGHES ALOOF
IN PARTY DISCORD
Californians Must Ad
just Own Affairs.
NATIONAL ISSUES TRANSCEND
Representatives of Both Sides
Sit on Platform.
GOVERNOR IS NOT THERE
Mr. Rowell, However, Joins in Re
ception of Nominee, With Chair
man Crocker and Sir. Crocker,
His Opponents in Fight.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 18. (Spe
cial.) "National issues are too great
for me to concern myself with local
conflicts," said Charles Evans Hughes
tonight of the contest . between the
Progressive and Republican elements
of the party in California. "I came
here as the spokesman of the National
Republican party. With the local dif
ferences I have no concern. The great
National Issues transcend all possible
local conditions."
At the meeting tonight Chester H.
Rowell. representative and spokesman
of Governor Johnson and the Progres
sive party In California, and one of the
two Republican National committee
men, sat on the platform with Governor
Hughes. With him were Francis V.
Keesling, chairman of the state Re
publican central committee, and Will
iam H. Crocker, second of the two
California National committee mem
bers. The Governor was not present.
Ignoring of Johnson Charged.
Mr. Rowell has charged that the Re
publicans in control of the party in
California have used their power in an
endeavor to pay off a personal grudge
against Governor Johnson, candidate
for Vice-President with Colonel Roose
velt in the campaign of 1912 and now
a candidate for. United States Senator.
Mr. Rowell said that Governor John
son, although the California Progres
sive leader, came out with a declara
tion of support for Hughes, but was
purposely left out of the plans for the
reception and entertainment of Hughes
in this city. He charged that Gov
ernor Johnson was not invited to the
Republican meeting tonight at which
Mr. Hughes spoke, and that the mem
bers of the arrangement committee had
told him that Governor Johnson's pres
ence would be "highly undesirable."
Howell's Suggestion Overrated.
The situation has grown out of the
plans for the meetings at which Mr.
Hughes is to speak in California and
also out of the effort of the regular
Republicans to put a crusher on Gov
ernor Johnson's candidacy for the Re
publican nomination for the Senator
ship. Mr. Rowell, as a National committee
man, sought to have Governor Johnson

PRESIDENT IS CONFIDENT
Railway Executives Will Leave Cap
ital Understanding Their Peti

Have Friendly Hearing.
BT JOHN C ALLAN O'LOUGHLTN.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 18. (Special.)
While apparently a deadlock exists be
tween the railroad presidents and man
agers and their employes, too much
stress cannot be placed upon President
Wilson's confidence that a strike will
be averted.
That the settlement will come at the
latest on Monday or Tuesday Is the
view not only of Mr. Wilson, but of
the financial Interests back of the
roads. The character of the settlement
remains to be adjusted. Opposing a
tie-up of the present transportation
facilities of the United States are not
only the financiers In control of the
roads, but the great interests of the
allied powers, which must have muni
tions, automobiles and other products
necessary to them in the war.
Reads to Be Compensated.
In the end the railroads will make
concessions to the men. in spite of
the attitude now maintained by their
officials. The President feels this will
be true, because of the need of peace
for the reasons set forth. The rail
roads, in their turn, will be compen
sated for the concessions they may
make. In his speech of acceptance of
the Democratic nomination to be deliv
ered at Shadow Lawn, N. J, on Sep
tember 2, President Wilson will make
a strong plea to the people for "Jus
tice to the railroads."
The railroad officials, aware of this
purpose of the President. Interpret It
as meaning that an advance in freight
rates will be granted.
Thus will be met the Increase in op
erating expenses which will be caused
by compliance with the demands of the
men. It Is realized that a proposal to
advance rates will meet with violent
opposition from shippers and that they
will offer strenuous resistance to the
move. Therefore, it will be asserted
that any question regarding an increase
of freight rates is a question of the
future. While this undoubtedly will be
correct, it likewise will be xtrue that
the railroad officials here will depart,
when the negotiations have terminated,
fully expecting an opportunity to lay
higher tariffs before the Interstate
Commerce Commission which to a aub-

Eugene Smith Tries to Save Com

Capsized at Ross Island.
Stanton Bonbright, 21 years old, of
Los Angeles, was drowned in the Wil
lamette River last night when a canoe
in which he and Eugene Smith, also of
Los Angeles, were riding, capsized
when between Ross and Hardtack
Islands.
The boys struggled in the water for
45 minutes, after which Smith, who
was wearing a heavy overcoat, swam
thus impeded to shore, took off his
heavier outer' clothing and swam back
to the canoe to rescue Bonbright. But
Bonbright had disappeared. Smith
then was picked up by V. IL Feely.
287 East Ash street, in the launch Molly
after a few minutes. F. E. Little, of
the Winderauth baths, also aided Smith
with his canoe before the launch ar

-Eugene Smith is a nephew of F. A.
Ball in. construction engineer and naval
architect. Worcester building. He lives
at 400 West Fifty-seventh avenue.
Highland Park. Los Angeles. Bon
bright lived at 429 West Fifty-seventh
avenue, that city. The boys had com
to Portland to learn the shipbuilding
trade. They had been here two weeks
and. until yesterday, had lived at the
T. M. C. A.. Bonbright working in the
ship department of the Northwest
Steel Company and Smith going into
Mr. Ballin's office.
Yesterday they took up their resi
dence at Virgil Hamlin's houseboat on
the east shore of the river near Hard
tack Island at the invitation of Mr.
Hamlin, who had gone on a vacation,
and last night was their first resi
dence on the riverfront.
Cries Are Not laderatood.
The two youths had been out at the
Oaks and were returning. Just what
occasioned the accident Is not deter
mined, but Smith said the canoe sud
denly capsized. It is presumed they
had reached the rough water near the
end of Ross Island.
Owing to the fact that they were
near Ross Island, where bathers usual
ly shout while at their sport, the cries
of Smith and Bonbright were mistaken
for shouts of glee. For 45 minutes or
more. Smith estimates, they clung to
the upturned canoe in the hope of res
cue. As a last resort Smith started
to swim ashore, and was all but ex
hausted bV the heavy weight from his
overcoat.
He hurriedly doffed his heavier
clothes and started to swim back. He
was picked up by Mr. Little and they
went to the scene of the tragedy, but
Bonbright had disappeared. Smith con
tinued to Bearch for his friend until
Mr. Feely, in the launch Molly, picked
him up and took him to the houseboat
of Stanley Bouquest. From the Port
land Rowing Club the Harbor Patrol
was called. Patrolman Jaeckel went
to the scene, but was unable to find
any trace of Bonbright.
The parents of Smith and Bonbright
