LINERS UNABLE TO ENTER NEW YORK HARBOR New Cunarders' Draft Too Deep for Present Channels, Say Marina Engineers. (Journal Saecfel Service. ) New York. Oct. I. There Is a strong probability that the two greatest ocean liners, ths Ounarder s Lusitanla and Mauritania, Will not be able to enter New York harbor when they arrive oft this port a year and a half hence. To day It would be aa Impossible for them to reach their piers on the New York water front aa It would be for them to reach Buffalo by way of the Erie canal. There la not a channel up the bay deep enough to float them. And according to harbor men and peraons In close touch with the altuatlon there la not likely to be one In two or three yeara. They will not be able to enter In safety un til the completion of the new Ambrose channel, which will be finished In about four yeara, according to the englneera In charge of tha work. Just how much water the new Cu narders will draw It is Impossible at this time to say. The builders estimate the load draft at 57 fast ( inches. This may be two feet underestimated, say experienced boat builders and marine engineers. When all the fittings are put aboard they say the probabintiea are that the draft will be much greater.

IRRIGATION DISCUSSED DY 1 BOARD OF TRADE Number- of Speeches Made Support of Efforts to Raise Funds for Jetty. in At a meeting of the Portland board of trade last evening tho question of Irrigation Investigations and experi ments In eastern Oregon waa taken up for discussion, and it was the senti ment of the meeting thst the state of Oregon should sfford sufficient finan cial aid to warrant the federal govern ment In continuing tha Irrigation Inves tigations. From s communication received from A. P. Stover, who Is conducting the experiments. It wss learned that he Is Hsiut tn r.fir. from the field because 1 of lack of Interest shown by ths state He said: "1 regret very much this turn of af fairs, for Just at this stags of eastern Oregon's development tha need la vary great for experimental solutions of Ir rigation problems snd for actual field demonstrations in thd preparation of land and me application of water." Under a cooperative plan between na tional and. atate governments, it Is nec essary for a state to appropriate IS, 000 or more, and the national government augments this with a similar amount. The board paaaed a resolution urging the Oregon legislature to appropriate a sum necessary to continue the Irrigation experiments.

ARMED MEN (Continued from Page One.) ha" from the striken yea. and the unamblguoua flat of Chief Ortlsmschsr. Tha exporters got a "hunch" last night, according to W. J. Burns, -that there was a conspiracy among the strik ers to blow up Montgomery Dock' No. I, where all the strike-breakers are housed at night. They, therefore, had three forcea of men on hand . to do guard duty. There were two policemen, Bills, and Roberta; seven detectives hired from tha Thlel agency, E. H. I Debord J. A McMonles, F. A. Brough- ton. J. W Qui nn. F B. Hot hern. D. 1. Mennett and H. Griffith, and the steam launch Palmer, containing Harbormas ter m-lin and Tiou Gamer, the owner of the launch. Why Blglln took It upon hlm..lf tn met Into the service of the exporters and hunt for strikers Is s mystery, but Sfter his experience last night it Is not likely that he will bo so accommodating in the future. Harbormaster Opens Battle. Blglln snd Gsrner crulaed up and down in front of Montgomery No. 2 for some time. At snout ocioca iney approached within a few feet of the dock. Blglln saw a light under the dock and Immediately Jumped at the con clusion that It waa a strikers who ought to be shot. Ths harbormaster whipped ' out his revolver and fired at tha light. What was his surprise to be answered by a volley from above. "Detectives" Debord and McMonles, thinking they were hstng attacked by strikers begsn emptying their revolvers ss fast ss they could pull the triggers. Blglln set up a loud outcry and Policemen Ellis and Roberts came on the ran, calling upon the frightened watchmen to Stop firing. But tha watchmen did not stop until they had discharged even revolver bullets Into the hull of the Palmer, one of them graslng Oar ner'a face and leaving a scratch three Inches long upon his cheek. Had the "detectives" not been too panic-stricken to take careful aim, they would have killed both Blglln and Gsrner. for they were only s fsw yards distant, and evi dently shot to kill. When the battle was over and con gratulations hsd been exchanged over the fact that no one wss seriously hurt, ths policemen reported ths occurrence to headquarters. Ths result was thst In a few minutes Sergeant Cols and a squad of sevsn patrolmen were on their way to the dock to disarm ths dstee tlvSs. A revfflver of large caliber waa taken from both Debord and MacMooles. as well ss from esch of ths five other guards stationed at other points about the dork These guns were taken to po lice headquarters, whers thsy still re. msln. Chsrgss were not preferred against any of ths psrtles to the affair, but Chief Grltsmscher declares thst he will tolerate no more of such business. The strikers are Jubilant over the In cident of last night . snd they believe thst the disarming of the gusrds will mark the beginning of desertlona which will leave only a handful of tha 40 or M strlkebreskers now la thS employ of ths exporters, COMPILES NEW LAW REGULATING ALL INSURANCE BUSINESS IN STATE r P.
