LAW & ORDER LEAGUE OUT Only One Reform Organization An nounces Stand and It Will Not Actively Assist Campaign Wnicb Opens This Week. CHICAGO, Feb. 12. (Special.) With the beginning of next week, the bat tle over the existence of the saloon will be on, to continue with increas ing Intensity until April 5, when the final test of strength will be made at the polls. i On Monday, the Anti-Saloon League will open headquarters and from there the army of men and women who will be In the field constantly until elec tion day will be directed in their ef forts. The general campaign committee met In the offices of the Anti-Saloon League Friday to map out the work that la before it. Action was taken look ing to the harmonious co-operation of all the forces which will be engaged In the fight to abolish the saloon in Chicago. United Effort to Bo Made. Tho endeavor to secure the united effort of all the reform organizations In the fight have been successful ex cept as to a single organization, ac cording to Information that was given out today. . The one organization that has thus far seemed lukewarm toward the cam paign, is the Chicago Law & Order League, of which Arthur Burrage Far well Is the secretary in charge. In a conference between Mr. Farwell and James K. Shields, superintendent of tho Anti-Saloon League, it was formal ly announced that the Farwell organi zation will not actively assist the cam paign. I am personally opposed to the sa loon on principle," said Mr. Farwell, "and I shall use my personal influence to further the fight that is now being waged. Nevertheless, the organiza tion I represent does not seek to change laws nor to carry elections. Our object Is only to secure a proper enforcement of the laws that now exist, and for that reason we can take no hand In this fight." Superintendent Shields admitted that the executive committee of . his or ganization is disappointed at the' atti tude of the . Law and Order League, although he expressed confidence in the personal views of Mr. Farwell. Hints of Ill-Feeling Heard. Despite the amicable statements given out by the heads of the two or ganizations, it is known tat . there have been hints of ill-feeling between them ever since the time two years ago when the Law and Order League nrst announced the policy of not offi cially Indorsing the Anti-Saloon League movement. Opponents of the local option prop osition will make a double-headed campaign, but there will be no clash ing of interests. The united societies which represent a tremenffoue voting population will devote a large part of their energies toward impressing on their members the importance of going to the polls and voting. The officers believe that the polling of practically the full strength of the organization will insure them a big victory and their efforts will be directed' to that end. ' The battle for the liquor interests probably will be directed by an organi zation of the business men who believe they will be affected adversely, di rectly or indirectly by the adoption of tho local option proposition. These Include tho hotel and restaurant meu and others. They probably will be or ganized during the cqjning week and will have charge of much of the edu cational campaign. Assisting these two organizations will be the Manufacturers' and Deal ers' Association, which will direct the large part of the financing of the campaign. FIRM GIVES BIG DINNER Columbia Trust Company Employes Dine at Commercial Club. The entire staff of the Columbia Trust Comapny, consisting of officers, salesmen and office force, gathered at the Commercial Club Friday night for tho third annual banquet of the company. At this banquet a unique programme was arranged at which the various members of the company hand ed keen quips to the others present. The programme was conducted as a good-natured farce and the talks were all- In a decidedly humorous vein,, except a spech by President Clark, who outlined the work for the coming year. At this meeting a vote was taken on a name for the new addition purchased last week from E. L. Thompson. The vote showed a great majority In favor of the name Verona Heights, Verona Park being the strong contender. The name was chosen from the name of President Clark's sister. Miss Verona Clark.

In Renewal of College Wrestling Vim, S. B. Parlier Is Soundly Trounced. SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 12. (Special.) In an exciting fight in the corridor of the Melhorn building today Prosecuting Attorney George F. Vanderveer ejected S. B. Parlier from his office after giv ing him a thorough beating. He there by settled out of court a long-contested case that has given himself and office no end of trouble. . "You can't insult me in my office," shouted Mr. Vanderveer as he kicked Parlier out of the door. "I don't like you anyway. Get out of here.'" yelled the Prosecuting Attorney, his face purple with anger.- "Tou can't put me out," answered Par lier. as the two men clinched. The Prosecuting Attorney was not slow In using the science of fighting and wrestling he had acquired 'when he was the champion intercollegiate wrestler of the Coast and when he was an athlete In Stanford University and the Columbia Law School. The two men whirled through the swinging doors fighting like demons and, clinching, fell to the floor. Here, with a well-timed toe-hold and a half-nelson on his adversary, Mr. Vanderveer soon gained the upper hand. The crotch-hold, the barlock and a few of the other well known knockdown and drag-out- fight holds soon had Parlier helpless. "I'll go," cried Parlier. but Vander veer's anger increased and the pommel ling continued. The noise brought dep uties and detectives from their rooms into the hall and they saw their chief pulling himself away from Parlier, who, not waiting for the elevator, raw down the stairway. Parlier had loaned his roommate, D. C. Hudson, a suit of clothes to wear to. a dance. Hudson was accused of pawning the suit after the dance and Parlier had him arrested. Tho case dragged along through the, courts for a long time until Parlier. growing tired of the delay went to Vanderveer to remonstrate with -him. In the argument that followed he ac cused Mr. Vanderveer of conducting the case in an Irregular manner, whereupon Vanderveer proceeded to throw him out of the office and added a good beating for good measure.

SANTIAGO. Chile, Feb. 12. The Pa cific Navigation Company's steamer Lima Is ashore on one of the islands in - the Huamblin passage of the straits of Magellan, and probably will be a total loss. The chief pilot and 50 pas sengers were drowned. ANCUD. Chile, Feb. 12. The British steamer Strathurst has arrived here with 188 men and women and 17 of the crew of the steamer Lima, which Is on the rocks in West .Huamblin pas sake. Straits of Magellan, where the steamer went aground In a storm re cently. The steamer officials report having left 88 persons aboard the Lima, their rescue being Impossible. Tiiere is no drinking water, the tanks having burst. The stranded steamer Lima is a -British vessel owned In Liverpool and plying be tween that port and ports of South America. She was last reported as sail ing from Bah la Blanca, Argentina, on January 26, and was on her way to Chil ean and Peruvian ports. The Lima is 401 feet long, registering 3115 tons, and was built in Glasgow in 1907. The place where tho steamer was wrecked probably is Humblane Passage, located between the south shore of San Pedro Island ' and Chile. It is a narrow passage full of dangers and difficult of navigation. Humblane rocks, two In num ber, and 65 feet high, mark the entrance to the passage. mi tin. niiiM.af i iVrtrilni x "i :: I : ''' . v 1 ' TCO AND 3 2 ME ARE SOUGHT Navy Department Anxiously Hunts for Nina on Atlantic "WASHINGTON, . Feb. 12. Somewhere off the Atlantic Coast between Norfolk and Boston the. little naval tug Nina, with 32 men on board, te wallowing in the great billows with broken machinery awaiting the arrival of one of eight Government vessels now speeding to her supposed location. The tug Is in com mand of Chief Boatswain John Croaghan. As bad as is the prospect. It ia the est hope of the officials at the Navy uepartmem lomgnt. xne alternative is that the Nina Is at the bottom of the. sea with a bare chance that her crew has been rescued. Last Sunday the Nnia steamed out of Hampton Roads for Boston. Before the day was far advanced a stiff northwest wind sprang up, making what sallormen call a "nasty sea." Under ordinary conditions the tug should have arrived at the Boston Navy yard last Tuesday, but It was only yes terday that the naval officers here began to feel serious apprehension for her safety. As no word of her arrival reached the department today. Immediate search was ordered. From Norfolk went the swift scout cruiser Salem and the battleship Louisi ana. These- vessels were instructed to cruise as far as Cape May along the coast. From the New York Navy-yard the collier Culgoa started on a cruise and she will be followed soon by the tugs Apache and Pontiac. The gunboat Costine and the Collier Caesar left the Boston Navy-yard to join In the search. Then the revenue cutter sen-fee went to the assistance of the Navy and orders were flashed to the cutters Acushnet and Gresham, at Bos ton and New London to take part. v The problem is similar to what is known as a 'search problem' in naval strategy.- The ocean is divided Into squares, a sertain number being assigned to each t the searching Bhips. Naval officers believe the Nina broke a shaft or dropped a propeller and was blown off shore by the northwest gale Into one of the deser&d spaces outside the regular "lanes" of travel. ONLY ONE AMERICAN IS LOST IIl-Fated General Chanzy Carried San Francisco Actor. MARSEILLES, Feb. 12. The French transatlantic line asserts that no pas sengers embarked , on the General Chanzy. wrecked in the, Mediterranean, after the regular passenger list had been made up. According to this list the only American on the steamer when she foundered off the coast of Minorca on Wednesday night was Leon Derenda, a vaudeville performer, of San Francisco. The woman reported as an American was Miss Hlsie Herly, who was uorn at Epernay, France, but recently re turned from a trip to the United States. It was reported yesterday that an American named Delymm was on board, but no such name appears on the passenger list. $ The steamship officials received nothing during the day to encourage the hope that more than one person out of the 157 on board survived. The Late Mrs. Jnanlta Comttlsa Beakey. risburg. Or., 33 years ago, and was a graduate of the Portland High Schools. Her death was due to septic poison, fol lowing an operation for appendicitis.
