Ban Francisco, July 21. (P. N. S.) United States Inspectors Guthrie and Dolan today beiran a vigorous lnvesti-1 gatlon of a series of steamship colli- Ions in the stream last evening, which j began with a crash between the liner 'Anyo Maru, from South America, and i tha United States army transport i Crook, damaging these vessels. Captains of the colliding steamers were asked early in the day to submit written reports to the federal Inspec tors and a federal hearing will be set shortly. The Anyo, with the troop . ship's anchor and 40 fathoms of chain hanging from her side, was still In the stream at a late hour this forenoon. The transport, with one of her plates btdly dented, made the dock last eve ning. TTnder a curtain of heavy fog, the Ativo Maru. carrying more than 360 i passengers, was riding slowly to an chorage and the Crook, bound for Seat tle in ballast, was making for tte heads. Lookouts on the Crook did not see the liner until it was almost upon them. The vessels struck starboard to starboard. The transport's llne8 were caught in the deckworks of the liner, and the Anyo'p, passengers were thrown into a panic. The Crook disappeared in the fog.

Bead of Multnomah County. Salem. Or.. July 21. That the state of Oregon will find It Impossible to take advantage of the terms of the act providing for national aid for the construction of highways, if the tax limitation constitutional amendment Is adopted In November, Is the opinion of the stale engineer, expressed in a letter to Assessor Henry E. Reed of Multnomah county. j "The appropriation for any 6tate is conditional upon any state alloting at least an equal sum for road pur poses," says Lewis in his letter. It will be observed that an equal amount, namely 15,000,000, is added to the available amount each year. It is obvious that it would be impossible for the state of Oregon to secure the benefits of this act if only a 6 per cent increase in Its appropriation for road purposes could be made each year." Lewis thinks the plan of cooperation with the federal government is a good one and would meet with general fa vor, inasmuch as a one-half mill tax would bring as much through coopera tion as a one mill tat would otherwise. The engineer says one-fourth of a mill levy now yields about $240,000 a year and the proposed constitutional amendment would render any substan tial Increase in the levy Impossible. As to the effects of the tax limita tion amendment on irrigation districts. Lewis fears there might be serious losses In case of breaks In canals or other works, requiring Immediate re pair to prevent heavy losses. It would be Impracticable to submit the ques tion of furnishing the necessary funds to the people in such cases, he says. MiU Will Run Six Full Days a Week O. A. Smith. Employes at Coos Ba7 Will Draw More Pay Prom Wow On Irfjgs Available, Marshfield, Or., July 21. The plant of the C. A. Smith Lumber & Manu facturing company Is running six full days this week. At Powers the com pany has opened a new camp and it is expected that the logging end of tho company will be able now to amply supply the two big mills the company operates here. About 80 carloads of logs a day are brought from Powers to the mill. The increase to five days a week gives the men an added 20 per cent in wages. The C. A. Smith Lumber company has the plans ready for the new wooden vessel which will be built on Coos Bay. The marine engineer for the company will arrive here In a few days and after, going over the de tails of the specifications the contract for the construction of the vessel will be let. The boat will be built In Coos Bay and the Smith company will cut the timbers. Big Bond Issue Planned. Chehalls, Wash., July 21.

Three lines of discussion were suggested a cooperative plan of hunting down bandits by pursuit of troops of both nations on either side of the border, plans for withdrawal of American forces from Mexico and Investigation of the instigators of the raids on American territory.
