WAR MINES DESTROY NETS
Astoria, Fishermen Complain That
Submerged Foils Are Menace.
ASTORIA. Or, May 20. (Special.)
A protest Is to be made to War De
partment representatives by local fish
ermen, asking that mines planted In
the Lower Harbor be removed as they
are proving a menace to both life and
property. '
According to reports made by the
glll-netters, fTtere are about a dosen
mines planted In the portion of the
river between the Fort Columbia dock
and Pesdemona Light, which Is a
favorite drifting ground for many of
the fishermen.
The mines are buoyed, but when the
tide la running strong the buoys are
carried under and as a result several
glllnets have already been damaged
badly on them, and at least one net
was destroyed.
The tide at that place runs Itke a
mlllrace and unlcaa the obstructions
are moved, fishermen assert, there is
grave danger of boats being capslxed
by them and lives sacrificed.
Secretary Lorntsen of the Fisher
men's I'nlon said this morning that he
la taking up the subject with the pro
per authorities with a view of having
the mines ordered out at once.

Mr. Donnlvan, who will shortly be

become the real western terminus of

a moderate cost and since the port
offers advantages over other ports on

He declares that the Milwaukee Is

ington. May 20. Depositors In postal
aavlnga banks may convert their de
posits Into United States lionds, bear
ing two and a half per cent Interest,
on July 1. The bonds are being pre
pared In denominations of $20. $100 and
$500, and Postmaster-General Hitch
cock has advised postmasters to In
form tha public that these bonds will
be Issued to every depositor who ap
plies on the proper form before June
1.
These bonds v. ill be Issued only to
depositors, but they may be sold and
assigned at any time by the holders.
They are to be exempt from taxation
by either Federal, state or local au
thority. Depositors can procure either regis
tered or coupon bonds aa they desire.
Registered bonds, whleh bear the name
of the owner and re payable only to
him. probably will be preferable as a
permanent Investment because they
are safe against loss or robbery. Cou
pon bonds are payable to bearer, honce
can be more conveniently disposed of.
Interest on registered bonds Is to be
paid twice a year by checks drawn at
the Treasury Department in favor of
the registered holder. Interest on
coupon bonds la collected by mean a of
detachable coupons which can be
cashed by anyone. Interest checks and
coupons may be cashed by postmas
ters under the same conditions tfs other
Government paper.
Western Savings Increase.
The PostofFice Department antici
pates that the greatest demand for
postal savings bonds will come from
Western towns where depository of
fices have been opened. Many resi
dents of these towns have deposited
$500, all that the rules permit, and are
seeking to Invest this amount ao as
to make way for additional deposit a.
A noticeable thing about the postal
savings banks Is the fact that average
deposits are now much larger than in
January. During April the average
amount deposited by new depositors
waa $-1.-7. as against $16.14 in Jan
uary. Senator Jones of Washington has re
Introduced a bill which. If passed, will
bring a neat sum to each officer and
enlisted man of the volunteer .service
who remained In the Philippines to
fight after the treaty of peace with
Spain was signed. This bill, in effect,
gives to each and every volunteer who
served in the Philippines after peace
was declared an amount equal to ac
tual travel pay from Manila to the
point of muster out In this country.
This bill will apply to most of the
members of the volunteer regiments
from the West. On several previous
occasions Jones has Introduced this
bill, but never haa he been successful
In gettlnj. favorable consideration. He
believes the object Is a worthy one
and feela that these men should re
ceive travel pay. Inasmuch as the Gov
ernment granted travel pay to those
soldiers who were mustered out In the
Philippines. At the regular session

action on thla bill.
