'London, Dec. 21. KnglanU was read ing with the keenest Interest today the BritUh account of the battle of the Falkland Inland, cabled from Mon tevldeo, , where the warship Invincible had arrived, with Admiral Sir Fred erlck Sturdee on board. Kxcept that the number of Germans saved Waa placed at 23a Instead of 94, Instead of previously given, the ac count did not materially differ, how ever, from the one sent out several days ago from Buenos Aire. j It was eleur that Admiral Count von i Ppee attempted an attack on the Falk land islands and did not discover the British . squadron's superior strength until It mas too late tor the escape of any of his ships isrtcept the cruiser f Dresden, which, so far as Admiral J Sturdee's report Indicated, was ; still s afloat. - I To soma estent Admiral Sturdee's story served to divert the country's at! tiyitlon from the recent German nuval ,; raid on the Kngllsh eaM coast. There f rontinued to be, however, a rood deal of criticism of the London admiralty on account of the unsatisfactory show- ing which It teems to be generally felt the navy has made since the war be t iran, a selitiment which is kept con J stantly stirred up by the frequent 1 losses of British ships by submarine 1 mines.

District Attorney Evans to-1 "whera bui wounds Were, dressed. day informed the court that it had no discretion in tha matter, but must pub lish the list lif all four of Portland's dailies. ' -'I In a long letter forwarded to the board today- Mr. Evans takes issue with the opinion of Robert Maguire, his former deputy. Maguire on July 30 told the board that the law obliged the commissioners to select at ' least two newspapers In which to publish the delinquent tax list and that It could at its discretion select others provided those selected each had 10.- 000 or more paid circulation within the county, -- , - Original U Cited. Maguire based this opinion on the original law yhich says that the coun ty court shall select tne two news- largest Dona two the county and demonstrations down ' before they reached a serious stage. The combined Servian arid Monten grin forces were reported continuing their advance today from Vishegrad upon Sarajevo, capital of the Austrian province of Bosnia. From Nish and Cettinje came word that it was ex pected : the Invaders would invest the city within a few days. Children's Dinner Buckets Fight Fire Forest Grove, Or., Dec. 21. To save their schoolhouse from destruction by fire tha pupils of the Watt's district, two miles west of Forest Grove, dumped out their dinners and impro vised a bucket brigade. They sprinted to Gales creek, some distance away, filled their pails, and with their pro fessor Ernest Webb, extinguished the flames, which had already wrought considerable damage.

The fact that thej amendment reads "daily papers" instead of "all daily papers." shows, said Maguire. that the power of selecting more than two newspapers rested j entirely with the court. !' The district attorney In his opinion today puts another! interpretation on the matter. In hia letter he says V1 part: "I have given the matter fur ther thought and attention ana nave examined the former acts relating to the publication ofj delinquent taxes and am finally of the opinion that the enactment in question being chapter 301 of the session laws of 1913, in tended to take away all discretionary right that had formerly reposed In the board in the matter of aelecting a newspaper for this purpose. Action Is Deferred. "The amendment! which was added to the old law by the 1913 acts makes it applicable to Multnomah county alone and I have nq, doubt was In tended that the court should lie re lieved of the embarrassment of mak ing a selection of ! rival newspapers. and further that It was Intended to commpel the court to give this service to all papers that are within the limit fixed by the law." I At its session this forenoon the county court took 09 consideration of the matter, but after hearing protests against any proposal to publish the list in more than two newspapers, voiced by A. L. Fish, business manager of The Journal, decided to confer fur ther with the district attorney before taking any action toward the publica tion of the delinquent list. Mr. Fish asserted that It was a waste of money to; publish the list in all four newspapers, and said it was unjust to saddle the extra ex pense on delinquent taxpayers who are compelled to pay the cost of publica tion. The usual cost is about $5000 when all four nawspapers are used, and he said that he! saw no reason why this could not be cut in half by select ing two. j Commissioner ' Llghtner was also strongly set against the Idea of using all newspapers. Ha went further and asserted that the best way would be to have no lists published at all.
