and mounted, and '.he Tenth Regiment of
raralry were called out. rioting, which
began at I o'clock at eight was sup
pressed only after three hours of
tgoroua efforts and after additional dam
age to property had been done. The
affair was a continuation of the previous
alght'a violence by students and work'
men.
Mob Travels Rapidly.
As on Thursday night, the mob traveled
rapidly through the business section,
BurltEg rocks through the windows of
the American bulldlngsv many of which
had already been demolished and had
'reached the American residence section
when they were overtaken by the police.
Carothers. who declared at the police

parents were Loulstanans. waa guarding
him home In the western part of the city,
the windows and doors of which , had
been broken In the first night's rioting,
when the mob spproached.
At the first alarm, he tnk his family
to the roof for safety, he said. From
that point he opened fire with a rifle as
the crowd attempted to enter and wreck
Ms home.
Police Jat in Time.
The quick action of the police and
soldiers prevented the mob from seis

LATOURETTE GETS CREDIT
In Most Bitterly Fought Football
Game in History of Two Insti
tutions, Agricultural College
Goes Sown to Defeat.
BY HERBERT J. CAMPBELL
OREGON AGRICULTURAL. COLLEGE.
Corvallis. Nov. 12. (Special.) Outgen
eraled, outweighed and outplayed, the
Aggies' football team today went down
to defeat by the score of 12 to 0, after
one of the greatest gridiron battles ever
played between the two Institutions.
Tonight gloom hovers over the Cor
vallis Btudents. but It was not so with
the victors from the State University as
they left Corvallis on their excursion
train for Eugene. Instead there .was
riotous cheering by a thousand strong
lunged rooters who greatly aided their
team In Its march to victory.
Day Great for Oregon
It was a great day for Oregon. Two
place-kicks by Main and a touchdown
and goal by Taylor do not tell all the
story of the game. The Eugene team
beat its opponents at their own game,
a kicking style of play, and the Cor
vallis aggregation left the field at the
final call ef time a badly beaten team.
but withal a team which had fought
gamely to the end. In the words of
Coach Schlldmiller, of the Aggies, "Ore
gon had the better team; that's all
there Is to It."
To the field generalship of Latourette
must be attributed in large measure
the decisive victory of the university.
Corvallis, as was expected, started a
kicking game, and after this had been
tried a few times the Oregon "U" field
general decided to return in kind and
started meeting Keek's punts with
some of his own.
Keck punted farther than did Lat
ourette, but the Oregon back field
Latourette, Main, Taylor .and Walker
ran the kicks back for good gains in
the majority of Instances, while the
Oregon ends -Michaels, Jamison and
Fiser went down under the kicks in
admirable style and nailed the Corval
lis safety in his tracks.
Oregon's Place-Kick Scores.
Oregon scored almost at the start of
the game with a place-kick by Main'
from the SO-yard line. This was five
minutes after the kick-off in the first
quarter. Again Oregon scored by a se
ries of brilliant forward passes and end
plays in the- second . period, when
Walker spurted across the goal line for
a touchdown. When he had kicked
goal there was only a minute left to
play, but more forward passes and re
covery of a fumbled punt gave Oregon
a chance at a Held goal, which was
prevented by the call of time as the
players were lined up for the try.
Again in the third period Oregon
scored with a place-kick by Main from
the 31-yard line. After that Corvallis
braced, and while the Oregon goal was
not threatened the Aggies prevented
further scoring, although in the last
quarter Oregon made two more at
tempts at field goals.
- The Oregon goal was never threat
Oregon Goal Well Defended.
ened from the start to the finish. The
university defense was ragged at times,
but the sharp charging in the line
made it Impossible for Corvallis to
work the forward pass successfully.
Then, too, on many occasions Oregon's
hir linemen Fenton, Bailey and Grout
would ' break through and nail the
runner iehind the line for a big loss.

Mme. Gould Gives Warning and
Takes Fling at Elsie de Wolfe
and Elizabeth Marbury.
PARIS. Nov. 12. (Special.) Anna
Gould, in an interview today, gave her
side of the story about an applica
tion having been made to the Vatican
for annulment of her marriage to Count
Boni de Castellane in order that she
might marry religiously her present
husband. Prince de Sagan. She said:
"It is Bonl who is seeking the an
nulment of marrigae. He applied for
sucb an annulment to the Vatican six
months ago, on the ground that I had
made mental reservation at the time
of our marriage, as I was a Protestant.
A few days ago he renewed the appli
cation, basing It on an alleged technical
flaw. in the ceremony, his object being
to Marry Miss Ann Morgan. All I
have to say on the subject is that I
advise Miss Morgan to get the details
from my sister, Helen, concerning the
purchase of land in Paris, when Helen
and my brother, George, were my guard
ians. If I can call anything mine, in
France it's due to my sister's lack of
confidence in Boni."
She said she did not believe Count
Boni went to see Miss Morgan off when
she sailed for home. She continued:
"Miss Elsie de Wolfe and Miss Eliza
beth Marbury are making a great mis
take In persuading Miss Morgan to
marry Bonl, representing him as an
Innocent victim. They may get a pres
ent when the marriage takes place,
but they will soon be compelled to
leave the house, for my former husb
band does not like his wife to have
any but pretty friends." .

CORDOVA, Alaska, Nov. 12. Lying at
the mouth of the Katalla River, with an
unobstructed sweep of the ocean beat
ing in upon her, the steamer Portland,
Captain Frank Moore, of the Alaska
Coast Company line, seems doomed to
be added to the already, long list of ves
sels that have been wrecked along the
treacherous Alaska Coast. Creeping
through the inky darkness, made worse
by a blinding enow storm, the 'essel
struck an unchartered rock off Martin
Island at 6 o'clock this morning.
The heavy jar when the vessel ground
upon the rock brought the passengers to
the deck in their nightclothes, but the
excellent discipline of the officers and
crew soon restored order. The pumps
were set to work, but the inrush of the
water was too great and Captain Moore
headed the vessel for the Katalla River,
where she was beached at high tide with
a calm sea. The passengers were landed
In the ship's boats without harm. '
Launches from Katalla were soon along
side and took off the mall, express and
baggage, y
Captain Moore thought he could make
temporary repairs at low tide, but this -1
afternoon the wind came up. Attention
is now being directed to save freight on
barges. The main boiler is out of com
mission and the hold of the vessel is
filled with water. .
The steamer Alameda, now off Cape
St. Elias, has been ordered to the scene
of the wreck to lend assistance if possi
ble, but heavy swells are beginning to
come In and it is believed the vessel
will pound to pieces.

Should the Portland find a grave on

The vessel was built in Bath, Me., in
1885. and is of 1420 gross tons. Her build

She first was brought into prominence
when she was used as a blockade run

United States and gulf ports and Hayti

Her next bid for notoriety came dur

James Lotan. the Collector of Customs
