Architects Declare Regula
tions and Every Rule Rel
ative to Plans and Specif i
cations Were Ignored in
Making Final Award.
To tha Honorable Board of Education,
Portland, Or. Gentlemen: We, the un
dersigned, who have participated In the
recent competition for the Alblna high
school, join together to present to you
our request for ' a full and complete
copy of -the award as presented to your
honorable body by Mr.: SommcrvlIIe.
The above petition, signed by 10 of
the 11 firms of architects who partici
pated. In v the recent, competition;: for

cation ocrore tomorrow noon, it prom
ises to open ud a row In the board that
has been brewing ever rthce the .plans
for the new high school were first
called for and submitted.
Although none of the firms of com
petlng architects would make a state
ment today as to-the exact nature of
tne trouble that has arisen between
themselves and the board of education
since the acceptance of Whttehouse &
Honeyman's plans for the building, it is
known that they claim that all the rules
of the contest were violated by the
board and that the advice of Architect
Bommerviu or Seattle, selected to judge
the plans submitted in the competion
was rejected In order to select the plans
oemanaea Dy two members or th board.
Trouble Brewing.
So angered are the other architects
by the turn of events In the competi
tion that they threaten to compel the
board to pay them for the expenses-
amounting to several nunarea dollars In
each case undergone by them in pre-'
paring tne uiaiis ior tne ooara s con
sideration. At any rate, they insist that the rec
ommendations of the Judge be made
public, and that the board state its
reasons for tits alleged disregarding
of the rules of the competition.
In the program prepared for the
competition by the board of education
the board announced that in arriving
at a decision the board would accept
the recommendation of a Jury to be
selected bv the board of education. Mr.

Marysvllle, Cal., Jily 17. Heav
ily armetf and bearing evidences of
having traveled far without much
nourishment, Adolph Jules, the
Italian murderer who last TueBday
killed two men In Western Pacific
camp No. 20 in the Big Bar hills,
boldly walked into the town of Mer
rimac last night, went to a store and
asked for a bottle of beer. On be
ing told there was no beer for sale,
he struck off again into the woods
before anyone had time to give the
alarm.
Merrimao Is on the boundary be
tween Plumas and Butte counties, and
today posses, from both counties are
looking for the man. The officers are
working toward each other, and are con
fident of bagging their quarry before
night.
Jules possessed the boldness born of
desperation last night. Every one in
the county is looking- for the murderer
and he took big; chances in going into
Merrtmac. He walked right up the main
street with his rifle' over his shoulder
and two pistols hanging from his belt
His clothing; was torn almost to shreds,
as thouirh he had scrambled through
the underbrtlsh in his long tramp. His
face was covered with an unkempt
beard and drawn with hunger and
thirst.
As soon as the alarm had been spread
about Merrlmac, word was sent to
Sheriff Chubbick, who was at Orovllle
attending the Inquest over the bodies
of the murdered men. He Immediately
wired to Quincy and two deputy sheriffs
were sent out rrom buck s rancn.
Meanwhile, Sheriff Chubbick left Oro
ville on a railroad automobile over the
Western Paciflo tracks for Berry creek
There he organised a posse and struck
out this morning toward Merrlmac to
meet the Plumas county posse coming
in.
The original posse sent from Orovllle
Tuesday night is still searching the
oountry south and east or Big Bar.
Chubbick stated before he started out
this morning that he expected to round
up the murderer before night.
He expects a stiff fight, and it Is like
ly that the Italian will never allow him
self to be taken alive.

Alleged Overcharges.
Under the terms of the people's
initiative declaration at the last elec
tion, Portland is now face to face
with the building or purchasing of
docks and the city ownership and
operation of docks. Under a similar
system San Francisco has become
the greatest shipping center on the
Pacific coast of the United States.
Portland has available $500,000 in
bonds for the acquiring of or build
ing of public docks, yet it finds its
waterfront all but usurped by cor
porations. The Independent shlo owners and
shipping companies doing business here
are urging that this question is the
most Important confronting the city,
and is paramount to every other navi
gation problem. It is declared that
the city of Portland should immediately
take steps to provide deckage of ample
capacity for all vessels coming into
this port at a cost not to exceed 6
cents per ton for all tonnage passing
over the docks, or make these docks
absolutely free if such a thing la pos-
siDie.
Improvements Discussed.
Various ways, many ot which seem
feasible and desirable, are being dis
cussed lor making Portland the most

London, July 17. Members of parlia
ment today expressed the belief that
the "daylight saving" bill will be passed
in both houses without opposition. It
was recently approved by the lower
house committee, and although it will
probably go over to the next session It
seems assured of passage then.
After discussing the difficulties which
mnv arise after the passage of the bill.
the committee decided that they would
not be nearly so great as the advant-
ges to be derived.
Tne Din proposes mat an ciocks in
England and Ireland be set ahead 20
minutes for the first four weeks In
April and set hack 20 minutes for the
first four weeks In September. Follow
ing are the effects olaimed for the
bill:
Flrst--To move the usual hours or
workand leisure nearer to sunrise.
Second To promote the greater use
of cTayllRht for recreative purposes of
all kinds.
Third To lessen the use of licensed !
houses.
Fourth To facilltata tha training of

Fifth To benefit tha physique, i

the above offer to Its subscribers
who are in public service posltlona
for one or two bodies unaccounted for.
One of them Is that of Mrs. Peter Mof
fat wife of a brlckmaker. whose tent
near the magazine, where she lived with
her husband and two children, was
blown to shreds. Some think her body
was blown Into bo many small pieces
that there Is no hope of identifying
them, while others are of the opinion
that she may not have been in the tent
at the time. One of Mrs. Moffat's
daughters was seriously Injured and
the other was killed.
No one could bo found today who
knows Just what caused the powder In
the magazine, the property of the im
provement company, to explode. George
Mead, manager of the company, la
among the dead. Shortly before 6
o'clock Thursday afternoon he and tha
Cterks from the store went to the pow
der house to unload powder from a car.
They had been working but a few min
utes when the explosion occurred.
Although the fnagazine was located
some distance from Cle Elum. which
Is a mining town, The village was shaken
ns though It had been struck by nn
earthquake. Hardly a pane of glass in
the whole town remains Intact today
and here and there enn be seen pieces
of human flesh clinging to the sides of
houses or laying in the streets.
A complete list of the dead has not
been made. It is known, however, that
among them are Joe Rossi, a miner;
Gilford McDonald, clerk; Joe Pogrlap

' Columbus, Ohio, July 17. The objec
tions to sending, an invitation to Mrs.
Alloe Longworth, to attend the Prohibi
tion convention has stirred a pretty
moss among tha ladles of this town.
Eome are with Mrs. Frances Beauchamp,
president of the Lexington W. C. T. U.,
who said: "Mrs. Lonirworth Is In Yel
lowstone Park; let her stay there." And
some are with Mrs. Longworth, who has
not been heard from on the subject.
Some of the objections to Mrs. Long
worth are said to be due to stories In
effect that the lady doth:
Smoke cigarettes.
Never removes her Merry Widow,
which is one of the real-thing kind.
Isn't afraid to take a drink at meals
with ber husband.
Is "too many places where women
should be less conspicuous."
Talks too loud.
Is not in line with the Prohibition
movement.
These objections are most pro
nounced Among women attendants of
the convention from the southern states
and from Washington. D. C. They add
Mra. Longworth baa bad too much
notoriety, anyhow.

Honolulu, July 17. All Honolulu
witnessed ' the great parade - of
sailors and marines from the 16 bat
tleships of the Atlantic fleet today.
Soldiers from the army post here
Joined in the parade which was led.
by Rear Admiral Sperry and Gov
ernor Frear.
There Is the greatest enthusiasm
here for the boys In blue. Every resN
dent of Hawaii Is on hand to extend a
welcome to the Americans, Many of
the sailors are taken to tha homes ot
the residents and entertained In tha
open handed manner of tha tropical
sones. .
The arrangements for handling tha
crowds are perfect. There is no disor
der and everything Is being conducted;
smoothly. The city is well policed and
jresents a beautirui spectacle wun ua ,
ong avenues of stately palms and Its
troulcal bazaars and fruit markets. Tha
native Hawaiian women are dressed In
their most gorgeous costumes and tha
hula dancers have been kept busy at
tha beach resorts. The governor's pal
ace and the government buildings ara
decorated with the stars and stripe
crossed with the former royal aroaa .
of Hawaii.

The streets are strung with thou

Jackie is as nappy nero aw no .won :
could be. The officers of tho fleet navo

and ho finds everything to pleasa
him at this aomesuo-ioreign pon.
This is essentially Jackia'a celebra
tion. He is the big hero. He can go to
any dance that Admiral Sperry attends :
and can alt at the same banquet board
with his superior officers. Nothing tn -this

officers. All the men on Uncle Sam s

Vsbraaka In Quarantine Again.
A party of three sailors from tha
fleet, a native Kanaka woman, three
Japanese and four resident Americana
went Into a tea house this morning, all
laughing and talking. This is but an
Instance of the absolute freedom and
cosmopolitan aspect of the celebration. '
It is unique and refreshing and Just
suits the enlisted man.
There have been no overcharges) re
ported so far, and It Is not likely that -there
will he. The proprietors of tha
tea and cocoa houses would rather gtvo
the refreshment to a sailor than get
even a lust remuneration for Jt.
