WORK STOPS. Government Boats Cease Labor Because of Lack of Funds. Portland, Jan. 13. By the end of this week not a government vessel will be in commiBsion on the Columbia and Willamette rivers or any of their tribu taries. It will be the first time for many years post that snch a condition of affairs has existed. The United States engineers say it is due to the fact that there are practically no fund- with which to continue operations. - An order has been iiven out for the dredge W. S. Ladd to he taken nut of set vice the last of this week. She has been working coritinuou:-ly btweei Pillar Rock and Astoria for the pasi four years, with the exception of a few days tbat she was laid un for repairs. The Ladd has kept the channel from filmaling in the lower river, and had i' not been for this, shipping would have been po badlv impaired that it weuld ha vp dropped to the zero matk. Since she hf.8 been in commission it is esti mated that nhe has emoved enough material from thf bottom ot the Colum bia river to pave all the streets a foot deep in a city fifty times as lare as Portland. If her service were constant ly needed in the lower harbor to main tain a ship channel many are wondering what will happen if she should tro out of commission. The tug Mendell has been laid up and the tug Lincoln will go into winter quarters as soon as she supplies the ba dredge Chinook with coal to take her to San Francisco; they will have no work to do when the other government vessels are idle. Usually they have been kept busy escorting vessels oper ated by the United States engineers be tween the different localities, where it was desired to have work done. Orders to tie np the dredge Wallowa, which is employed on the Snake river, were ispued yesterdny. Two small dip per dredges have been tied up, in ad dition to all the barges and flatboata owned and operated by the government in these waters. These craft will remain idle until congress eeea fit to make an appropri ation for the improvement of rivers and harbors Those vitallv interested hope that means may be realized through the medium of the civil sundry bill for con tinuing the more important projjct8 al ready under way, but they are far from confident that such will be the case. Influential shipping men are alarmed at the situation and for the past few days have been in commun"cation with Senator Burton, chairman of the river and harbor committee, calling attention to the importance of granting an ap propriation at this session of congress. Relative to the matter, A. Tucker, man ager of the local firm of Meyer, Wilson A Co., this morning said: "We deplore the fact that the United States engineers, on account of a lack of funds, are compelled to stop all work on the rivers whn the channels are really in need of attention to keep them in perfect condition. Hbould Congress make no provision for carrying on the work of dredging the river between Portland and Astoria, or for continuing the work at tbe mouth of the Columbia, it will be an outrage. I folly believe, however, tbat some provision will be made for continuing the work." , Cs.ar l;tcils Tlmt Dignity of It Demand 1 1. St. Petersburg, Jan. 12. The govern ment seemingly is about to make the irrevocable decision that prestige abroad and the situation at home neces sitate the continuation of the war till peace with dignity is possible. Beyond this point, however, no confirmation exists, especially regarding the immed iate development of the interior situa tion. Emperor Nicho;as is still apparently vacillating as to whether he shall a low M. Witte full sway, in the meantime declining to permit Prince Sviatopolk Mirsky to retire. The latter persists in the view that the confidence of the peo ple in the manner in which tbe reform manifesto is to be worked is vital, and thia is impossible if the work is to be left completely in the hands of the bureaucrats. Direct consultation with representatives of the classes interested he considers essential. It has now been definitely established that the third section of the manifesto as originally drafted by Minister Sviato- polk-Mirsky provided for representa tion of the Zeinstvos in the council of Domestic r 4 4 in the family is not to be ex pected where a poor cook stove is used.

Prince Sviatopolk-Mirsky's retire ment from the Ministry of the Interior continues to be considered only a mat ter of a short time, although there is seeming evidence that the Emperor hopes by temporizing to avoid the necessity of concen'rating the power in the hands of M. Witte. Should the real storm break, however, no one doubts that M. Witte is the one strong man in sight who oan be called to the bridge. Socialists, revolutionists and other ex treme elements, as well as the subject races of the iborders of Russia, all have different ambitions, with which the con servative Liberals, whom the govern ment reallv hopes to appease have little in common; and, above all. Russia's unnumbered millions of peasants, al though they have manifested an ab horrence of war, principally for econom ic reasons, have giyen alm st no evi dence of having been stirred by the political agitation. All is quiet in the interior, the people seemingly being absorbed with the Christmas holidays. No further disorders have occurred in connection with mobilization, the only acute movement of any sort being P0L.0CE hotel HEPPNER, OREGON Leading Eastern Oregon Hotel MODERN CONVENIENCES ELECTRIC LIGHTED . . .'
