That is the question that has been growing in the minds of riv er men silica a week ago when word reached Salem that ft suit ugainst the ship's owner, bused on (he con tention that the steamer had been purposely allowed to sink, had been won. It v.na said that the ILcliet would be put up for public auction to meet the charges of 3300 alleged to have been spent tu behalf of the insurance com pany with which the boat was in sured. The amount of the Insur ance was $20,000. The boat was first crushed by the ice on December 24, no par ticular hint of scandal being con nected, so far as the general pub lic was concerned, with the so called accident at that time. The incident occurred during the seri ous cold snap that froze the Wil lamette river from bank to bank. Sinking btowly through the ice, the boat settled to the bottom of the river on December 29. It was not until nearly a month iater that rumors concerning the incident gained such headway that the affair began to assume the prooortious of an open scan dal. Reports that the sinking could easily have been averted with reasonable effort, that the boat wa3 insured at a rate so high as to appear ridiculous, that while it sank certain equipment was actually loaded on the Relief and allowed lo sink with it, gathered momentum, received alleged veri fication from one source and an other, tintil the affair became joke all along the riverfront. Meanwhile representatives of tho insurance company had, in good faith, raised the boat, clean cd it of Us deposit of river muJ, ?nd towd It up the slough to a APPEAL FAILS Circuit' Judge Kelly has signed an order dismissing the appeal of Henry Shields from the deci sion of the county court in fixing damages suffered by Shields in the btraightsning out and elimination of grade dot3ings on the road be tween Jefferson and Marion lu his order Junge Kelly states that no petition for damages was ever fil?d with the county court nnd that the circuit court has no jurisdiction in the premises.

EMAY8 AS DEBATE BATE In a letter received Monday from Salem. Mass., the idea was proposed to local high school de bate authorities thut the coast to coast debate, which for some time was being considered, be held on May 8. The easterners stated that they would like to bring five per rons on the trip, at an estimated cost of 91600. The offer will be rejected, ac cording to local debate author! ties, but efforts will be made to secure a contest of a like nature next yea, and the year following "They have every advantage of ua the way things stand now,' ?aid Principal Nelson this morn ing. "They have been debating this question for nobody knows how many months, while we would have to prepare ourselves on short notice. The Qtientlon has to do with the federal child labor amendment.

The sidewalk was being torn up In front of the Oregon building this morning, preparatory to in. stalling a new safety deposit viult, according to those who had charge of the work. The vault is to be the property of a local tar ings and loan company. point near the paper mill, leaving it there tinder the care of a watch- it. an. The Relief has been there ever since, although the original watchman has been relieved by u federal guard at government or ders. C. F. Schaub, the owner, orig inally demanded tho entire $20, 000 for which the bout was in ?ured. Later, however, he is said to have modified his demand and asked only the sum necessary tu put the boat back into good con tiition. It was Schaub's demand for the full amount of the insur ance premium that precipitated a clash between himself and the company. If he had used ordl nary precaution in averting the sinking the insurance company would have been under obligation to reimburse him for whatever money he epent. Under tho cir cumstances, however, he not only has his boat damaged by the ice ?nd water, but loses even what there is left of It after It is raised. The Relief was not seriously damaged. The boilers, although caked with mud, are as sound as ever. The port side, the side pre sented to the observer from the chore, has an appearance of hav ing been considerably mauled over. On that side part of the roof is gone, a few windows have been broken, part of the roof and all of the railing Is gone. On the starboard eide doors, windows and roof are intact. The hull Is in good shape, except for the fact that a few boards have become warped. The hole in the port eido of Hie hull, which originally caused the boat to sink, has been temporarily patched. It Is estimated that with the expenditure of a thousand dollars tho Reliof can be put into condi tion so that it may be worth a much as $5000. I San Francisco, Cal., March 2 1 The United States circuit court cf appeals held Monday that peace officer cannot arrest a man without a warrant for carrying a uspicious package, even If the of ficer s suspicions are justified. Ernest Prown had been arrest ed by a policeman in Portland, Or. for carrying a package which n policeman suspected contained liquor. The policeman was right according to the evidence, and lirown was convicted of a Volstead taw violation. 'Had tho policeman sought a warrant from any magistrate witiiout examining the package and baej his demand for the war rant merely upon his suspicion of what the package contained, the warrant would have been denied," the court held. The conviction was reversed. ROSS FILES SUIT TO HOLD OFFICE Portland, Or.. March 24.
