Ot, on the Russian-Finn bark Port Caledonia. That was on the 1 6th ' of January, 1915," .began Dyer in relating his experiences. "We were bound for Queenstown. At Dublin I received my discharge, and started for Liverpool. On arriving there I Joined the Ameri can ship Georgianna. "Back to Savannah was my next move on the Georgianna, after which we returned to London. As we were nearing England we observed a Ger man submarine, but it cruised away and there was no excitement. Seas Seppells said. "On the 17th of September while ly ing to in xjondon, w had our first exhibition of a Zeppelin raid. Be lieve me, we were all on deck to watch proceedings. "One Zeppelin almost directly above SUBMARINE SIT UA1N We found ourselves soon after thla exciting period in Newport, In Bristol channel. "On Christmas eve, while lying at anchor, we received a wireless distress signal, saying that the sender was be ing torpedoed by a submarine. We im mediately weighed anchor and went to the rescue, "tut found nothing. "Back to Savannah again and then to New York was my schedule when we finally left England. The English freighter Lutitin was my next boat and on it I saw Havre again and then went to Rouen, France, from whence we sailed to Dartmouth for coal. "Returning to New Tork, I joined the American liner Phlladelphian which took me to Liverpool. "After returning to America, the trip was repeated. Then I went to Liverpool on the Kroonland. The .1 Occidents carried me next for a while and then I embarked on the Satsuma for the Azores. "Sette, a French port in the Mediter ranean, was visited for four days. Mar seilles was next on our itinerary, from and feed store at Latourelle, Or., on the Columbia highway, yesterday - after noon, and for a time threatened other buildings in the town. , . The loss to building and mer chandise is figured at several tnou suid dollars. A bucket brigade of men and women residents of the town, assisted by a number of Japanese laborers, managed to confine the blaze to the building where it started. Water was' brought by wagon from Latourell creek f when the supply in the town ran short. . y. First Big Trunk Line Valuation Complete Washington. Nov. 27. (I. N. 8.)

He will be In a position to inform the German authorities privately that the United States intends to carry out her Sussex note threat of breaking off relations if violations, arise. Gerard here today was booked for luncheon with German Ambassador von Bernstorff, a strictly social matter, and for early conferences with Presi dent Wilson and state department of ficials. He expected to talk to state department officials about what he knows of the German mind concerning submarinings, likewise of peace possi bilities and commercial plans for after the war. Officials have frowned on reports. both in this country and abroad, that a new TJ boat ''crisis" was developing. The searching inquiries made by this government into the different sinkings by submarines during the last month have revealed that the government Is Intent upon determlnng definitely whether the German government has embarked upon a new campaign endan gering her assurances given at the time of the Sussex sinking. Some of the reported sinkings were found to have been justified. Others are still to be cleared up. Although officials refused to talk publicly of the coming interview be tween Gerard and the president. It was learned on the best authority today that the ambassador to Germany will be acquainted with every detail in connection with the present situation, and that he will be told, in effect, that another Sussex case would bring about the most serious situation that has arisen between Germany and the Unit ed States. Secretary Lansing saw Ambassador Gerard shortly after 11 o'clock and later Joined him at luncheon with the German ambassador. Lansing Tefused to reveal anything of his talk with Gerard, saying it was confidential. though indicating he had given Gerard the complete view of the administra tion's Ideas and purposes.

With Michigan, Nebraska, South Dakota, Montana, added to the ranks of the "dry" States by Constitutional amendment, Prohibition Governors elected in Florida1 and Utah, and a popular vote for the abolition of the liquor traffic in the Territory of Alaska, things look dubious for John Barleycorn in the immediate years to come. -Nor does this astonishing increase of "dry" terri tory tell the whole story. In Arkansas, Washington, Colorado, and Oregon, already under statewide prohibition, propositions were submitted to the voters for various modifications of the law in favor of the liquor interests, and on all questions these amendments were defeated.
