PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. Jl. Bur-
rell A Sons of Glasgow, owners of the
large fleet of "Strath" steamers, have
given orders for the sailing of the
steamers of their line now tied up on
the Pacific coast, and the last Impe
diment to the resumption of normal
shipping conditions on this coast has
now been removed. From this time
on, unless the Germans unexpected
ly secure control of the sea shipping
is expected to be only slightly affect
ed by the war in Europe.
The orders received by the cap
tains of the "Strath" steamers are
believed to have resulted from the
presence of the British cruiser New
castle on this coast While the news
of the arrival of the cruiser in Vic
toria was censored by the British
government, it is regarded here 'as
certain that the vessel is at present
off the coast and that as a result
practically all danger to British ship
ping has been removed.
The Newcastle was reported as at
Victoria Monday afternoon. Tuesday

SALEM. Ore.. Aug. 2i.After
spending more than a year consider
lng the proposition, the committee ap
pointed in July. 1913, by Mayor
Steeves to frame a charter for a
commission form of government for
Salem, tonight completed its work
and will report at the next meeting
of the council. The charter was
framed after a study of various sys
tems in use throughout the United
States and the committee believes it
will meet the needs of Salem for
many years to come.
The manager system has been se
lected bv the committee as the best
for this city, and the manager la to
be given full control of the various
departments. . One feature of inter
est U the provision to do away with
titles for men who will work in vari
ous capacities. The manager Is to
be head of police, fire, treasury and
other departments and the men un
der him are to be only workers. ThU
was incorporated with a view to pre
venting a possibility that an officer
might be so busy living up to a title
as to neglect the duties of his de
partment. According to- the charter framed by
i the committee. tvtn men are to be
j chosen as a city council and these
I men shall constitute the legislative
branch. At present the city council
j onsisu of 14 men.
i Itls proposed to pay the city man
I t Bcr a large salary nd make him
absolutely responsible for the affairs
of the city. Some of the committee
men were inclined at first to. favor a
commission of three, but it was point,
ed out that in case it would be im
possible to pay them large Balaries
ami (t would be better to have one
man well paid and capable of hand
ling the city's work.
The people of Salem will vote on
th? propped charter some time this
11. The date will probably be fixed
at the next meeting of the city coun
cil. Two thousand copies of the pro
posed charter wll lbe printed and
0 istributed. U
Salem voted down a plan to adopt
the commission form of government
alxut two years ago. However, the
proposed charter differs from the old
in many particulars and it is believed
by its advocate that it will carry.

of the Willbrldge neighborhood.
from spending the coming few months
in jail, according to District Judge
Davtnn vesterday. Subotich. through
Attorney G. G. Schmitt, pleaded gull
ty to a charge of drawing a revolver
on Lumsden, but said he was drunK
at the time and did not know what
he was doing.
"Because the state and prosecut
ing witness do not desire to prosecute,
I will suspend sentence, but If he re
turns he must serve a full year in
the county Jail and whatever sentence
he may receive In the future," said
Judge Dayton. "His revolver Is con
fiscated." The trouble which led to Subot
ich's arrest has been over a duck

Huntman with stealing 250 ducks and j
Lumsden and Deputy Beckman went
to arrest Huntam Subotich became
ugly and interfered, drawing a gun

After Subotich was sentenced yes

Subotich and Huntam had agreed
that each would open his duck pens
and let such as belonged to the other
wander home. On that agreement
the larceny charge asainst Huntam

pay $6, one half of the costs of

acquisition of areas of Interest and
spheres of Influence In China to for
eign powers. Until lSPj no foreign
power aside from the Portuguese and
English had been allowed to hold
possession on or near the coast of
China. Japan acquired Formosa by
treaty In that year. Russia secured
a concession for the Manchurlan rail
way and France obtained a rectifica

Germany's seizure of Kiaochow In

In November. 1897. Russia obtain

square miles of territory, and secure I
a naval base and an Ice free port. In
the following May further conces
sions gave Russia virtual control of
Manchuria and a little later Rus
sian Influence was extended Into
Mongolia,
The Russo-Japanese war, however,
limited Russia's activities there and
resulted In Japan's acquisition of
Port Arthur. To preserve the bal
ance of power Great Britain April
2, 1898, leased Welhalwei on the same
terms as those in the Russian lease
of Port Arthur.
English Influence Felt.
In February. 1898, Great Britain
had established Its Influence without
exclusive privileges In Yangsze valley.
These concessions were followed by
similar privileges for France, which
on April 3, 1898. leased the port o!
Kwankchauwan on the southern
coast for ninety-nine years. On June
9, following, Great Britain leased ior
ninety-nine years a 200 square mile
extension of territory on the main
land opposite Hongkong and about
the same time Japan secured non
alienation pledges concerning tho
province of Fuklen. Italy demanded
a lease of Sanmun Bay, but did not
press It because of popular opposl
tion as expressed at home to a policy
of expansion.
All these territorial negotiations led
up to the celebrated International
"open door" declaration. While Eng
lund had long urged the policy of
equality of opportunity for all nations
In Chinese trade the United States
accomplished the first broad recog
r.ltlon of that principle.
As a result of negotiations by John
Hay, the American secretary of state,
Great Britain, Germany, France,
Italy, Russia and Japan early In 1900
agreed In guaranteeing the treaty
rights of tho United States and thus.
through the most favored nation
clause, the treaty rights of other na
tlons In China should remain unim
paired in the territory except mili
tary or naval stations acquired or
leased by each power and that goods
of the treaty powers should continue
to be admitted there on equal terma
with those of the nation newly In
possession.
Seek to Curb Huwiun KsMUvdun.
Great Britain and Germany supple
mented this on October 18, 1900, by
a definite agreement between them
to uphold the policy of an open door
In China, to abstain from leisure of
territory themselves and to Influence
other governments, as far as possi
ble, to the same end.
The Anglo-Japanese alliance ot
February, 1902, for the protection ot
their respective Interests in China and
Korea was another factor of great
Importance. The Immediate object ot
the alliance was understood to be the
limit of Russian expansion In Korea
and Manchuria.

PARIS. Aug. 20. The withdrawal
of thousands of men from every field
of labor has seriously altered trans
portation and other conditions In the
French capital. The underground
railway is running only on certain
lines, and then only on a much re
duced service.
The work of the conductors, ticket
ounchers and other employes, who
have been called to the front, Is be
lng done by their wives and sons. The
tramways are running with a force
recruited wherever possible and the
same Is true of the Seine steamers.
There are few taxicabs in opera

cabs, an ancient institution of Paris,

hacks that have not been seen since

the street are out In the sunlight
again, drawn by broken-down ani

But a pleasant feature of the labor
situation Is the whole-hearted loyalty
of the trades unions. Some of the
notorious "syndicates" which have
caused so much trouble in the past
are holding enthusiastic meetings In
the Bourse de Travail (Labor Ex
change) and are organizing them-
uelves to help in the public service
in such directions as the establish

ing of men to lend a hand wherever
