The damage to the vessel is ap proximated by the police at $15,000. She is insured for that amount, but J. M. Shaver, owner of the Shaver Transportation company, which oper ates the vessel in the towing trade here, said this morning that the loss was probably greater than this figure as the fittings of the boilers and en gines hadsufered irreparable damage, as had also the electric lighting plant. The hull of the vessel was undamaged except for being badly scorched in side. Owing to the headway gained by the flames before their discovery by Clyde Peteet, the vessel's watchman, several of the crew, who were asleep in the after part of the ship, barely escaped with their lives. None of them were able to save any clothing. Mrs. Alma Seeley, the ship's cook, who was asleep in one of the upper cabins, made her escape to the deck clad only in her nightgown. She left the canary behind in her haste. A collie dog, which was thought to have been caught in the flames, was dis covered after the fire hiding under a berth in an empty state room in the forward part of the ship. Merlon Golf Season.

As City Attorney Roy lialey Is at pres ent In Portland, the cases could not be tried this afternoon but were set for 2 o'clock tomorrow. These are the first arrests to be made In the campaign being made to compel all dog owners to purchase licenses as provha by the city ordi nances as provided by the city ordi nance. Most of the delinquents have been notified of the arrest which follow any further delay on their part and. In almost every case, they have hastened to pay over the stipu lated amount.

DIAZ' REPLY IS MODIFIED. (Continued from page one.) had just appeared, and many read the rebel leader's declaration as they el bowcl their way to positions of vant age. Men loyal to the government, and men who doubtless would like to see Madero win, but who realize the danger Involved, listened to every word of the minister as if under high tension. It was not a crowd that applauded. It was one that wanted to learn some thing more than It knew. That desire was not realized and the optimism of the minister did not appear to have the effect of reassur ing the deputies and spectators. The thousands who had been un able to gain access to the chamber eagerly purchased and read newspa per extras containing the full text of the report.
