Navy May Try Tin'hlne.
" Washington, Sept. 8. The bureau
of steam engineering Is -preparing -to
mtike further Inquiry Into the turhliiH
as a jxisslble substitute for the re
ciprocating engine on naval ships
There Is the remotest cluince of the
adoption of the turbine, on the next
battleship lo he designed, but at pres
ent the experts see no good reason
for departing from the true and tried
mechanism for naval propulsion.
There have been several bisections
of the trans-Atlantic liners which are
equipped with turbines, but the In
formation obtained has not been en
tirely satisfactory: In fact, concern
ing the expenditure of coal, the most
Import tut feature. It has been almost
Impossible to obtain reliable Informa
tion. This and other features are kept
under cover, and It has come to he
appreciated that there may be good
reasons for considering the turbine
more expensive In operation at least
as to coal consumption than the re
ciprocating engine.
At the same time the bureau de
sires to obtain nil possible Informa
tion on the subject, nnd to this end
will pursue the Inquiry, the next step
being the detail of Lieutenant Com
mander IT. P. Norton, now on duty In
the bureau of steam engineering, for
nil observation trip on the steamer
Carnmiila, upon which Is Installed the
Fnrsons turbine. Commander Norton
will be accompanied by a bureau
draughtsman and will seek to add to
the department's fund of Information
In regard to turbine operation with,
If possible, somo record of the expen
diture of coal. It Is hoped to make
comparisons with another steamer .of
Identical dimensions, the Caronla,
which Is equipped with reciprocating
engines. v i
I MANILA A FREE PORT.
Revenue or $(10,000 to ftNO.OOO Per
Year Is Cut Ofr.
Washington, Sept. 8. The Philip
pines government has enjoyed a reve-
-
.Jesuits Elect a (icncrnl.
Home. Sept. 8. Father Fran-
els Wcrnz, a dark horse sup-
ported by the Germans, was
elected general of the Jesuits to-
day. It Is regarded as a trl-
umph for the kaiser and antl-
French Influences.
QUASH
IS
nue of from 160,000 to $70,000 froml
the Imposition of tonnage and nuvlgu-r
tlon, dues upon ships from outside
ports. Hut on August 31 the govern
ing commission passed an act for the
abolition of the dues. It gives up a
tax of which there has been some
complaint, and Manila gets the advan
tage of being a free poit.
In the samo connection reference Is
made to her Improved iiurbor facili
ties. The Improvements will cost,
when completed, several million dol
lars, and Include the dredging to a
depth of 30 feet over an aera of 400
acres, the reclamation of waste land,
and an 18-foot Channel entrance to
the Paslg river.
The statement concerning the abo
lition of dues which wus sent out by
the bureau Of Insular affairs makes
a comparison which shows that while
Manila la now a fre port there Is not
such a port In any other oriental coun
try. Hongkong, commonly called a
free port, Imposes a tax, designated
light daes, of 1 cents Mexican per
ton. This is the smallest charge, and
there are variations for different
ports ranging as high as 29 cents.
la the Philippines the duty has been
6 cents per ton, or 30 cents per ton
per annum. Manifestly nnder such
a system short sailing vessels which
made many entries, like those from
the Asiatic coast, had nn advantago
over those which made losg distances
and paid full rtites. American ships,
therefore, should be among those that
receive distinct benefit Irora the
change.

Putney, England. Sept. 8. Crowds

Harvard-Cambridge race at 4:30 thl
aiiernoons weatner conditions are
perfect. Fleets of excursion boats are
Jockeying for the best positions.

History of the Race.
At Beverly l'.rook Cambridge led by
a i. ngtn, Harvard doing 42 and Ca
bridge 38 strokes. At Crabtree the
Englishmen led by two and a quarter
lengths, but Harvard crept up to
within a length and a quarter
Hammersmith bridge, maintaining
this position until Lead Mills, each
rowing about 37. Cambridge then In
creased the lead and finished two
lengths ahead. Time, 19:16.
Error Lo- Harvard.
Cockswain Blagdon made a break
which perhaps cost Harvard the race.
Rlagdon took the shell too far out at
a critical stage of the race, when
everything depended upon American
ability. The error gave the Britishers
their chance and forged ahead and
passed under Barnes bridge, lending
by three lengths. Harvard made a
despern'e effort to make a length be
fore the finish, but could not reduce
It sufficiently.
The finish was the most exciting In
the history of racing In England, and
the race was one of the finest evel
seen nn 4he course. Cambridge's vic
tory wits clean and fair.

report of Master Fish Warden H. G.
Van Dusen, as submitted to the board
of fish commissioners, yesterday after
mon, the take of salmon eggs this
season, In all hatcheries, will exceed
that of former years by nearly dou
ble. In many cases this Is due to the
Increased capacity of several of the
hatcheries but In many Instances the
capacity had to be Increased in order
to take care of the surplus quantity
of eggs taken over previous expecta
tions and for which no provision had
been made.
The greatest Increase Is noted on
the McKenzle river, where a total of
1.285,000 eggs have been taken up

With Fifty Men ami Adequate Bnck
lug He Can Eradicate Scab In Ore
gon In One Year Tells UMn What
Terms Oregon May Be Released
From the Federal Quarantine Sub
ject Discussed by Thoroughly Rep-
resenlntlve Meeting.
".. -v
How' to remove the federal nnnran
line and other problems were snhlects
of discussion at the meeting nf the
Umatilla County Woolgrowers' associa
tion which convened In the rooms of
the Commercial association this after
noon.
After the session had been called to
order by Perry Gould, president, the
sunject or stock Inspection was taken
up and Douglas Belts, the Pilot Rock
sheenman. snake for several mimit
In favor of state Inspection Instead of
tne present system of county Inspec
tion.
Following Mr. Bells Dun V finu-llin
secretary nf the association, brought
up the subject of llftinir the fp.Wnl
quarantine and said that In his Judg
ment tne association should father a
movement for n legislative net that
would so clean the state of scab that
tne quarantine could be raised. He
moved that a committee of five ho
named to draft a bill to he repnm-
mendeil for passage by the legislature.
Lr. lieorge s. Hickox, head of the
bureau of animal Industry n the west
who was present at the meeting, was
caned on for his views upon how to
raise tne federal quarantine and se.ld
In part:
'There Is hut one wnv fit w-hir.u tho
sheepmen of Oregon can be released
from the federal quarantine, nnd that
is by eradicating the scab. If you will
gie me ho men and a law- that can

RAISED BILLS
Epidemic of. Propensity to
Swindle Breaks Out In New
Place and New Method.
JACK M INTVRE IS IN
JAIL UNDER CHARGE.
Accused of Passing a $1-110 Off on
Low Sam and of Having a Stock of
the Same Defective Currency in His
"Other Clothes" Defendant Claims
to Be Innocent Workmanship on
the Raised Bills la Very Clumsy
Incriminating Evidence Accumulate
Almost Hourly.
Because he passed $1 bills that had
been raised ot $10, Jack Mclntyre is
now a prisoner In the county Jail and
from Indications he will shortly b
behind the walls on McNeil's island.
Yesterday afternoon Melntyra
passed one of the bogus bills upon
Low Sam, the Court street Chines
merchant and when he learned of the
10
trick that had been played the Mon
golian notified the sheriff's office of
the fact. A search was at once begun
by Sheriff Taylor and Deputy Joe
Blakeley. In the evening they wer
rewarded by finding their men on
Main street. He was recognized from
the description given, though he had 1
changed his clothes after leaving the
Chinese store.
When arrested by Sheriff Taylor a
pistol was found In an Inside pocket
of Mclntyre's coat, and was at once
taken by the sheriff. When a search
was made of other clothes owned by
the prisoner, 10 more of the raised
bills were found, thus Indicating that
he was. In the. business extensively..
The work on the bills Is very clumsy
and the fraud may be readily detect
ed, though a person taking one with
out observing it closely could be de- '
celved, as has been proven. The
change In the denomination of the
bills is made by the use of white
paint. . ,,iH
When seen at the Jail this morning
Mclntyre refused to talk of his case
to any extent, though he claimed he
had never seen Low Sam. He says
he was formerly a sailor and his build"
suggests that he may have served be--fore
the mast. He claims that he wa'
In San Francisco at the time of the
earthquake and had not been in Pen
dleton before yesterday.
Irwin Suffered Also.
During the forenoon today another
bogus $10 bill which had evidently
been passed yesterday by Mclntyre,
appeared. It was presented at the
Savings bank by C. W. Irwin, proprl
tor of The Delta. It had been taken
nt the candy store yesterday nnd the
fraud was discovered by Roy Ritner,
teller at the Savings bank.
According to Mr. Ritner, a stranger
secured 10 one dollar bills at the Sav
ings bank yesterday, and the descrip
tion of the fellow as he remembered
him tallied very closely with that of
Mclntyre.
It has also been learned that some
one dollar bills were secured from
both of the other hanks In this city,
thus showing the swindler was work
ing tho game on an extensive scale.
It Is feared that other bills than the
two reported above were passed by
Mclntyre.
Is There nn Accomplice?
From various things thnt have be
come known to the sheriff It Is believ
ed that Mclntyre had an accomplice
with him here, and today every effort
has been made to locate him. But so
far they have failed to find him or
even anything like a description of
such a man, so the search Is difficult.
Good Work by Sheriff.
The arrest of Mclntyre by Sheriff
Taylor and Deputy Blakeley last night
Is regarded as a very fortunate pleca
of work. The appearance and meth
ods of the prisoner show that he Is nu
Irresponsible, amateur crock. He is
a man of intelligence and considerable
experience, thereby being nil the more
dangerous as a swindler. As he was
armed when taken. It may be he In-'
tended resisting arrest, but If such was
the case he was foiled by the quick
ness of Sheriff Taylor, for that of
ficer took the gun from Mclntyre's
pocket before the latter could do so.
