RIG COAST AGENTS Fritz Olson Incorporates New Agency at San Francisco to Handle Line. TO VISIT PORTLAND SOON Oeorge W. McWear, rormer Arnt, on Blacklist of the British Admiralty. Ban Francisco. Oct. 19. (P. N. 8.) The Norway-Pacific line agency filed article of Incorporation here today to handle the new steamship line which la to be established between San Fran cisco, Portland and lprweglan ports by Fred Olson, Norwegian shipping king. In the formation of the new agency the local shipping world believes It sees another of the multitudinous ef fects of the new world wide British, boycott. George W. McNear and Son, the only local firm on the blacklist, .had the Norway-Pacific line agency here when an effort was made to es tablish the service before the war la 1914. Olson then sent two or three hips out here and these were han- died by McNear. It was presumed that the local firm would handle the ships near until the new agency was established. Along the waterfront the theory now Is that McNear had to surrender the busi ness because of the taint his associa tion would put upon It in the minds of the British admiralty. Coal could be refused at Brttlrfh porta, the ships could be stopped In the North sea and many other things done to ej barrasa the owners. The new agency la capitalised for $25,000. The incorporators are Frits 8. Olson, son of Kred Olson, T. A. Thatcher and William B. Acton. Olson will leave here shortly for Portland to establish an agency for the line In that port also. SHIPBUILDING DEALS ON? Hardy and Knapp Confer With Norwegian Capitalists. Seattle, Wash., Oct. 19. (P. N. S.) The presence here today of prominent hip building men has given rise to the rumor along the waterfront that a big deal Is pending. William H. Todd, president of the Todd ship yards cor poration of New York, holding com pany of the Seattle Construction and Dry Dock company, is at the same ho tel with L. Harboe Jensen, brother of Peter Jensen, steamship operator of Chrlstlania, Norway, and Louis Han vig and Svord Jacobson, also of Nor wa. Jensen and Hanvlg are said to be in the market for wooden vessels. They are believed to have had a lasting con ference with F. C. Knapp of Portland, Who represents a shipbuilding plant at Bt. Johns, Or. Also the presence of Henry T. Bul len, shipbuilder of Victoria, and George E. Hardy, also a shipbuilder of Portland, aid the rumor. MeCulloch Completes Cruise. Port Townsend, Wash., Oct. 19. (P. N. S.) The United States coast guard cutter MeCulloch, aTter cruising 14,000 miles in five months in Alaskan wa ters, is here today, at the end of her journey.

Cry For Signature of GERMAN SUBMARINE REPORTED SUNK EAST OF NANTUCKET British Steamer North Pa cific Claims to Have Re ceived the Message. AUTHENTICITY IS DOUBTED easel Arrived In Xorfolk, Mon day Nlrnt rrom Hew Orlesns, bat Did ZTot Keport TJnUl Today. Norfolk, Va., Oct. 19. (U. ,P.) A German submarine, possibly the U-53, has been sunk off Nantucket, accord ing to a message the British steamer North Pacific claims to have received. The North Pacific is taking on bunker coal here today. .Although she arrived here Monday night from New Orleans, the North Pacific did not report receiving the message from what was said to be a British cruiser until today. The mes sage read: "German submarine sunk east Nan tucket." Officers of the North Pacific said the cruiser was lying off this coast. A London cable to the United Press a few days ago said a sudden reduc tion in Insurance rates on Transatlan tic shipping by Lloyd's had areused speculation as to whether the U-53 bad been sunk, captured or had re turned to a German port. It being be lieved that the reduction was ordered because Lloyd's has received "inside information." To Search for Derelict. Washington, Oct.' 19. (U. P.) The Coast Guard Cutter Tampa has been ordered from Charleston, S. C, to hunt the derelict American schooner Dunn. The coast guard service said today this is the only vessel out on a search and denied reports that a sunken sub marine Is sought. ' Diver Warfare Planned. London, Oct 19. (I. N. S.) Ger many Intends continuing submarine activity off the American coast, ac cording to an Amsterdam dispatch which quotes the Volks Zeitung, of Cologne, as follows. "German submarines will operate In the future in the western Atlantic. They will visit the well known ship ping routes around the eastern point of Nantucket Island and sink British merchantmen after giving the crews opportunity to save themselves." Officials Discredit Story. Washington, Oct.' 19. (U. P.) Re ports that a German submarine pre sumably the U-53 has been sunk off Nantucket, were generally discredited by navy officials this afternoon and also discounted by British embassy of' flclals. No naval station along the Atlantic coast picked up the alleged wireless message mentioning such a sinking re ported by officers of the British steamer North Paclflo at Norfolk. It was pointed out here that the captain of the North Pacific was not men tioned as standing sponsor for the story. NEW YORK EVENING POST HAS DEFINITELY ABANDONED HUGHES (Continued From Fag One.) his campaign may now be regarded as fixed. He can hardly make an essen tial change In It before election. "There Is no likelihood that any thing will cause him to swerve from It before November 7. Isolated flashes of fire may come from him more fre quently; but the main tenor of his speaking will doubtless remain what It has been. We need wait no longer to pass Judgment on the character and effect of his campaign for the presi dency. "That It has been a woeful disap pointment to his friends and admirers, there can be no manner of doubt. The evidence leaps Into one's face. On all sides you discover the depression which the Hughes speeches have caused. Xughes Ken Arc Dejected. "On every side dejected Hughes "men are to be encountered. They are going to vote for him, most of them, but they will do it without a particle of enthusiasm. They nave not been stirred or thrilled. More than that, their intellectual expectation and crav ing have not been met. "The Hughes failure is, Indeed, something like a calamity. We feel Intellectually poorer. It is as If props had been knocked from under us. In no one can this reeling of surprise and almost dismay be stronger than in the Evening Post. It Is not necessary to say what hopes we pinned to Mr. Hughes. If others are cast down by the result, we are mora so. All that is left is sorrow fully to speculate about the causes of the great disappointment. . Uses Hammer Only to "Knock." "Carlyle's question might be put to him: 'Hast thou only a torch to de stroy? Hast thou no hammer with which to bulldT Mr. Hughes has a hammer, but he uses it only to 'knock every Democratic act or fail ure to act. "The sure consequence has been to weary the country. People can't fore ever be harking back to past blun ders. They want to hear something of future efforts. And in the whole matter of passionate appeal, as of a man with high vision of what is to be, Mr. Hughes has come painfully short He has been shooting squirts of vitriol at the Democratic administration. He has not freely poured out wine for those whom he Invites to sit at his table. Has Xift Country Cold. "Whatever may be the true reading of the riddle of Hughes in this cam paign, the effect of his course Is known of all men. He may have of fended nobody, but he has won nobody. He has left the country cold. Thou sands who were ready to be drawn to him axe left halting between two opin ions. Most of the votes cast for him will be without seal or vivid anticipa tion. The whole Is an extraordinary thing, quite unforeseeable. The cam paign In general cannot be said to have been stimulating; Mr. Hughes' part in it has been a positive de pressant," A Spanish physician has developed a method for obtaining a potassium fertiliser from sea water which he has luuned marine kalnlt. t, V- - Oregon High Schools Need Male Teachers Sean of School of Education at State University Says Jema&d la State Greater Than the Supply. University of Oregon, Eugene, Or, Oct. 19. There are not enough qual ified men going into high school teach ing In Oregon to fill the demand. This is. the opinion of Dr. H. D. Sheldon, dean of the school of education at the university, in spite of the fact that a survey he has Just completed shows twice as large a proportion of univer sity men that intend to become teach ers as there was five years ago. The survey, covering the three upper classes at the University of Oregon, shows 67 men and 173 women who in tend to teach. GREK TROOPS TAKE CHARGE IN AND PRESERVE King Constantine Appeals Friends to Avert Riots Country's Capital City, to in Athens. Oct. 18. (Delayed.) (U. P.) Greek troops are in complete con trol of the situation here today, anti ally mobs are being dispersed and for the time being the possibilities of a serious clash between civilians and French marines seem to have been averted. The anti-ally leaders, however, are continuing their attempts to organize demonstrations and the crisis is by no means past. It is understood that King Constantine, following confer ences with the British and French ministers, sent' personal appeals to the most prominent of his supoprters, urg ing them not to stir up the Athens crowds to acts of violence. After his conference with the British minister. King Constantine appeared disposed to meet all the demands of the allies, though no authorized state ment has been issued. Vice Admiral DuFournot, commander of the allied fleet, declared after a conference with the Greek premier and foreign minister that he was hopeful that the situation would improve. The most severe military measures are now in force to prevent trouble. The collapse of reports that a United States fleet was aproaching Piraeus to intervene disheartened the civilians and has helped restore order. Newspaper extras were circulated about the city by the anti-ally leaders, reporting that American warships would arrive within a few hours to see that Greek neutrality was not violated by the allies. These reports greatly encouraged the mobs, thousands of Greeks actually believing that they would soon b Joined by American ma rines. "It is with Joy that we hear of the approaching arrival of the great Amer ican fleet," said one of the newspapers circulated by the royall3ts. "It brings relief in the midst of our torments. America resents the sorrows of the Greek people and doubtless will pro claim her reproof in a voice that will resound across the sea." The crowd that visited the American legation to present an appeal for American Intervention, learned that tbese reports were Ill-founded and the news spread quickly throughout Athens. The cabinet met today and, it Is re ported, drafted a protest to the allies against the arrest of Greek members of the Reservest league by French marines last night. A crowd of Re servist leaguers hissed a patrol of marines who dispersed them at the point of the bayonet. Greek troops wit nessed the arrest but did not interfere. Serbians Occupy Brod. Paris, Oct. 19. (I. N. S.) To light en the steadily increasing pressure against their flanks, the Bulgarians launched a strong attack in the Lake Dolran sector, today's statement from the French war office on Balkan oper ations said. The attack was repulsed by the troops holding the allied center. Serbian forces have crossed the Tcherna river southeast of Monastir, the statement added, occupying Brod. Train Leaves Track; Engine Crew Killed Manitowoc, 'Wis., Oct 1. (U. P.) Train number 111, Milwaukee to Ash land, on the Northwestern railroad, was wrecked here early today and the firemen and engineer killed when the train Jumped the track and plunged into a ditch. None of the passen gers Was killed. Railroad men said the wreck was caused by train wreck ers. The motive is not known. It was the fifth attempt in the last five years to wreck the train.
