JOB MAY BE DELAYED Savings System for Children Is In augurated and ISanks Arc to Co-operate Accounts Will Be Opened for $5. Liabor troubles threaten the comple tion of the Benson Trade School next Spring as scheduled. The School Board was told yesterday trfat It is im possible to get union men. to work therft because of alleged unfiilr conditions imposed by the Freilaerg-McLennan Company, which has the general con tract. R. N. "Willson, representing -union la bor, appeared before the School Board at its meeting yesterday and said that the contractors had rather misrepre sented things at that school and had agreed to observe union conditions on the work if the unions would make concessions when the work was first started. Agreement Declared Violated. Mr. Willson said they did so; but the contractors have failed to live -up to the agreement, and that as a result union men will not work on the Job. He said it is difficult and, in fact, impos sible to get -union men to work on the concrete part of the construction, as well as the plastering. It is said sheet metal workers employed there quit work Saturday because nonunion car penters are employed. "Dr. Alan Welch .Smith, member of the Board, told Mr. Willson that the mat ter is not up to- the directors at all, and that the condition complained of s entirely in the hands of the con tractors,, He said that the contractors hav'"4 agreed to build the school and if they Sail to do so. then the Board will take cognizance of It. SmlnKl Syntem Approved. MY. Willson gave the opinion that the matter will son be one that the Board will be required to recognize. A schooT. savings system for the chil dren was approved yesterday by the di rectors, having been recommended by the finance and judiciary committee. The system ctontemplates the establish ment of ravings accounts by the pu pils, the various buildings being ap portioned among the Clearing-house banks of the city. Surety bonds will be required of the banks housing the savings. It is suggested that the teachers keep account of the deposits by the pupils, and when each has $5 on deposit, a personal account may be opened by the pupil. Mrs. Alexander Wants More Pay. A. E. Clark, attorney for Mrs. Alevia Alexander, deposed principal of the Benson Polytechnic School for Girls, re turned to the Board a check for $6.73 being salary for the small part of Oc tober Mrs. Alexander was principal before her sttspension by Superintend ent Alderman. Attorney Clark put in a claim for th full nion;..is salary The matter was referred to the Ju diciary committee because Mrs. Alex ander is now having a hearing on charges against her. Delegations appeared before the Board at yesterday's meeting from va rious parts of the city, one from Glen coc district asking that the manual training department be opened even ings; another from Irvington askln for the erection of a playshed at that school and also for permission to.use the mainual training facilities on Sat urdays. The Board received a personal tender of thanks from the people of Kranklin High district because of the fact that the auditorium asked for some time ago has been included in the budget for the coming year. Three bids were received . for the clock system to be Installed at Ben son Polytechnic school and they were referred to the committe on buildings and grounds. BIG SHIP PLANT SOLD PACIFIC MAIL AND GRACE HAVE INTEREST IN EASTERN DEAL. Properties at Camden, Ti. J., Will Be Greatly Enlarged and Government Business Sought. NEW YORK, Nov. 16. The American International Corporation, in conjunc tion with the International Mercantile -Marine Company, the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and W. R. Grace & Co., for many years prominent in South American trade, have bought the prop erties of the New York Shipbuilding company, ot camaen, j. J. The acquisition of this company is in furtherance of the aims of the Amer can banking and shipping interests to extend the sphere of American com mercial interests in foreiirn countries The purchasers of the shipbuilding company intend to organize a new cor poration to take over its assets and property In which the majority interest will be owned by the companies named In announcing the purchase today t he new owners said that the New York Shipbuilding Company's plant appealed to inem because or its location, eauio merit and general adaptability to large scale production. Improvements to in crease the capacity of the plant ma tprially are planned which are intended to provide for renewals of the fleets of the companies purchasing the prop rrty. and Government business, if of fered, as well as private business. Th company, it is said, has contracts suf l'icient to fill the present capacity fo the coming year. The New York Shipbuilding Compan was incorporated in New Jersey in 18!) Its outstanding stock amounts to $5 00,000 and its bonded debt to 12.300.000 The interests previously in control were mainly capitalists of Philadelphia an Pittsburg. The American International Corpora tion is understood to have a large stoc ownership in the Mercantile Marin Company, as well as the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, which is operated mora directly by Grace & Co. OROUND AT NEW YARD BROKEN Albina Concern Gets Ready for Turn ing Out Steel Carriers. Grading operations began yesterday on the old,j Motgomery dock site, where the main yard of the Albina Engine & Machine Works will be located for the construction of steel steamers of 3?00 tons dead-weight cap- Mty. A few teams were employed, and as soon as the ground is ready it is expected the Port of Portland will assign one of its dredges to make & fill in the rear: Material for ways, buildings and platforms has been arranged for and UNIONS many details of the shop and yard or ganization attended to, so when the fabrication of Fteel starts it will find many former employes of the company on deck. News that William Cornfoot. head of the corporation, had accepted contracts for two tsteel vessels end that more would follow has turned the eyes of steel -workers on the Coast this way. especially those who had been on the payroll before Stranger Resumes Jtun Today. Oil-burning: equipment aboard the steamer Stranprer has been overhauled, as well as other machinery work done, and she is to go out again on the Port-land-The Dalles run thic morning, after being idle since her return Sunday, when engine trouble prevented .ier rotn making The Dalles. The steamer Is operating in conjunction with the Tahoma, under the banner of the Peo- Je's Transportation Company. VESSEL'HOT TRANSPORT nitlTIMI say ;ermaxs did is or WARN 3IAJL LIXER. " Vessel Reported by Berlin aa Sank in mediterranean Declared Arabia ami None Other. LONDON. Not. 18. The official press ureau gave out today the following of ficial German statement: "On November 6 a German submarine sank by a. torpedo a hostile transport of about 12,00-0 tons, eight nautical miles west of Malta." The British Admiralty appends this omment: "The announcement Is an obvious at- empt to explain away an outrageous and inhuman act in torpedoing a mail teamer without warning. The only ship sunk in the Mediterranean on No vember 6 was the Peninsular and Or iental Mail steamer Arabia, 79.'S3tons, unk without warning about 300 miles east of Malta." BERLIN, Nov. 16. (By wireless to Sayville, N. Y.) The following an- ouncement was made today by the Ad miralty: A German submarine on November 15, 80 miles west of Malta, sank with torpedo a. hostile transport steamer of about 12,000 tons, sailing under con. oy of destroyers and patrol boats." The Berlin wireless dispatch and the able dispatch from London evidently eferred to the same announcement from the German Admiralty, the dis crepancies as to the date and place of the occurrence probably being due to rrors in transmission. The date given in the wireless dispatch, November 15, robably is incorrect, as ordinarily re ports on the operations of German sub marines in the Mediterranean do not reach Berlin until a week or more after the events to which they relate have occurred. IS WEST JEFFERSOV FOLKS WANT TO ME PART OF GRAYS HARBOR. Round Trii to Principal Seat la ttOO Miles and Six: Days Will Be Required to Get Mail. IlOQUrAM, Wash., Nov. 16. (Spe cial.) Ranchers of the Queets, Clear water and Upper Quinault River val leys are preparing to petition the Leg islature to divide Jefferson County and annex Ihe western end to Grays Har bor County. This word has been brought to this city by a delegation of ranchers from the two former valleys, who came here to interview Represen tative Albert Johnson, of Hoquiam, and Linn H. Hadley, of Bellingham, on the need of mail service to the Queets dis trict. Western Jefferson County Is settled only along the Queets and Clearwater River valleys in the Queets district, and along the upper Quinault valley north of Hoquiam. It is for the most part heav'ily timbered and contains several townships of state lands of various classifications, as well as a large area of the Olympic National Forest. The district is cut off from the eastern end of the county by the Olympic Moun tains, the Olympic forest and by lack of any means of transportation. Ranchers in western Jefferson Coun ty, to reach their county seat. Port Townsend, must travel about 2J miles over trails impassable for horses most of the year, to Lake Quinault. The lake is crossed by canoe or launch and from there to Hoquiam the trip is by auto stage. From this city to Seattle they go by train, and at Seattle they board a steamer for Port Townsend. The round trip is about 600 miles. Mail from Port Townsend to Clearwater, the Queets postoffice, would require six days for transmission if there was no delay. REGULATION IS ADVOCATED Chamber of Commerce Committee Passes on Railway Question. At its meeting yesterday noon, the executive committee of the Chamber of Commerce favored a plan of th Chamber of Commerce of the United States either to take up by referendum or at Its meeting which starts today at Washington, D. C, the subject of closer Federal regulation of railways. The plan in mind is for the Govern ment to eliminate as much as possible the present conflict in some instances between the Federal and the state gov ernments in railroad regulation. The local chamber went on record as favor lng a simplified and centralized regula tion, leaving it to the National cham ber either to institute a referendum or dscuss it directly at its meeting today, Four Schooners Sold. SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 16. The Port Blakeley Mill Company has sold the wooden schooners Willis A. Holden and Wilbert J. Smith to shipping in terests of Mobile, Ala., and they will enter the hardwood trade between Cen tral-American and Gulf of Mexico ports The company has sold the schooners William Nottingham and J. W. Clise to Norwegian interests which- prob ably will change their names. The four boats will be turned over to their' new owners on completing the voyages on which they are now engaged. Second Steamer Catches Fire. VANCOUVER, B. C, Nov. 16. Fire broke out last night aboard the TJnio Steamship Company's New Zealand freighter Waikawa in a cargo of cop peras in the after hold. Third Officer Waterman was removed from the hold in an unconscious condition, having been overcome by smoke. This is the second fire of this sort within the last 24 hours, and while there Is no indica tion that the fires are anything but accidental, precautions are- being taken to prevent further outbreaks. As in the case of the steamer Waimarino last night the fire was extinguished by flooding the hold. Hunter Found Frozen. WEXATCHEE, Wash., Nov. 16. The body of Ray K. Simonds was taken to North Yakima today after having been found frozen yesterday in the. wilds of the .Chelan Mountains. Simonds be came lost a week ago Monday while hunting, and seaching parties found his body 21) miles from the nearest habitation. ATLANTIC RATE-HIGH Ocean Freight Charges Go Up Instead of Down. FOREIGN VESSELS SCARCE Two Old-Time Sailers Ileuded Tor San l-'ranoirico Are Kreneli Harks General de Negrier and Marie. Four Others Are En Route. Instead of a. general drop In rates on the Atlantic side, where the bulk of the grain from the NorOwest is find ing Its way, moving by rail to East Coast ports, and then being trans shipped, advices to A. O. Anderson & Co., of this city, are that they are firm and gradually advancing. About a month ago it i said the freights from the East Coast to the French Atlantic were from 80 to 85 shillings, and now they are quoted at S7 shillings, while in the same psriod the freights to the West Indian trade have gone from 37s Ad to 40 shillings. On the Pacific side the decidedly lim ited amount of tonnage, compared with the fleet that could be ueed. is holding rates steady, and shippers say Uiere is no more reason to expect ships from the Atlantic tlian there was a year ago. There is a remarkable absence cf foreign sailers In the ltet of carriers bound to Pacific Coast points, though two old-timers are numbered with those en route, the French bark Gen eral De Negrier being 46 days out of Mejillones for the Golden Gate and the French bark Marie listed from Valpa raiso. There are two Peruvian ships and one Chilean bound for an Francisco; also one British scZiooner. In the way of steam tonnage there are vessels of the British, Japanese and Scandinavian flags plying In the Pacific trade, but at that there are more American steam ers operating on trans-Pacific routes than before. The only foreign tonnage on the river from Portland to the sea is three Ger man equare riggers, the Arnoldus Vln nen, Kurt and Dalbek, all of which have rounded out more than two years of idleness and, as their owners refuse to sell, their return to sea depends on the restoration of peace. .The few men left aboard have settled down as care takers, and, while the vessels are In the best of trim and shipshape from keel to trucks, the time when they may spread their canvas again is not even being wagered on. OFFSHORE BREEZE CALMS SEA Beaver Comes From Bear State 'With Big Cargo of General Freight. Officers of the flagship Beaver, of he Kan Francisco & Portland line. which is now in the harbor from California, found the sea as smooth as glass on the way north from the Golden Gate, due to the east wind prevailing, and it was decidedly in contrast to that experienced on the last voyage from Portland, which was the teeth of a southerly blow. The Beaver was heavily laden as compared with her usual northbound oad. there being close to 15t0 tons of general freight and a big shipment of cement. Dick Martin, steward on the steamer Bear when she went ashore June, and who left on the Beaver last trip as second steward, resigned at San Francisco to accept a position as steward on one of the Admiral line vessels. Chief -Wireless Operator Fast man, who has been on the Beaver four years, is again on dut3 after a month's visit In the East. MARYIjAND TO BE FREDERICK Xavy Department Changes Xames of More Armored Cruisers. Admirers of the cruiser Maryland. particularly friends of Captain J. M. Kllicott who brougrit her here in 1912. are trying to accustom themselves tP me new name chosen by the Navy De partment, the Frederick. The cruiser West Virginia is to be known in the future as the Huntington and the Colo rado, now used as flagshio bv Pear- Admiral Fullam. is to be the Pueblo. and the cruiser Washington, now on the Atlantic side, will be the Seattle. The Maryland was the first of the armored cruiser class to visit Port land and being 602 feet long she made an impressive picture in the harbor. he was followed the same year bv the battleship Oregon, which has since made a second visit. Changing names of that class began a few years ago when the Pennsylvania was rechris tened Pittsburg, then the California was called the San rlego. LIGHTSniP FOUND STAtTXCU Rebuilding Work Under Wa v at Supple's Dock. As work of tearing away some of the topside and bulkheads aboard old Lightvessel No. 50. which Is at Supple's dock to be converted into a combined freight and passenger vessel for the Mexican Coast trade, Mr. Supple says it becomes more apparent that the ves sel is in excellent condition and, in his opinion, sue win last for many years if cared for. rue reounaing can be expedited as soon as Francisco Del Valle, who, with his brother, invested in the vessel, re turns from San Francisco, where he went more than a week ago to arrange for machinery to be shipped here for installation.. The reconstruction is ex pected to cost close to $35,000 and the vessel will have 24 staterooms and freight space for about 500 tons. GRAYS HARBOR BAR IS DEEPER Dredge Col. I S. Mitclde Makes Bis trogress in Fair Weather. HOQUIAM, Wash.. Nov. 16. rSpe cial.) The bar dredge. Col. P. S. Michte already, has been able to make a de cided improvement in the channel across the Grays Harbor bar, although she has been -working less than a week. Her work also has been aided by the increased "scour" of the high Winter tides and freshet water. froundinss nhow a depth now of 19 feet In the channel at low tide, fri v inff about 27 to 28 feet at high tide. This is a deepening of at least two feet and is sufficient to make navi gation across the bar safe. The dredge since coming to the harbor has been favored by fair weather. Marin Xotes.

Willamette at Ixw Stage. One of the lowest stages reached this season by the Willamette River was re corded at 8 o'clock yesterday morning, when the stream estood seven-tent js of a foot above zero, and In 24 hours had dropped tree-tcnths of a, foot. At several places along the waterfront the beach was bared. Upper Willam ette River service above Kalem, on some of the streams emptying into the Columbia, the lack of water is felt, the steamer Chester having been with drawn for that reason from the Kelso Toledo run, after making a few trips. At Oregon City yesterday the gauge reading showed a depth of 1.8 feet above zero and the fall in 21 hours ws recorded as 1.3 feet. Xcws From Northwest Ports. ASTORI . Or.. Nov. (Special.) Cap tain K.

No expla nation was made to me ot tnerc Deing more than one kind or .Masons.
