Sinking of Steamer Dae To
Fault of Others Five.
Other Opinions
Two Marion tounty eases were hand
ed down ny the Oregon supreme court
this morning.
In the ease of T. Rosen wald, as T.
Ronenwald k Company, appellant,
against the Oregon City transportation
company, tespondent, appealed from
Marion county, au action for damages
to hops sunk in the Willamette rivler
when the steamboat Oregona was sunk
in a collision with the United States
government dredge "M'hanipoeg," De
cember 2, 1913, Judge Burnett af
firmed the decision of the lower court.
The opinion states that on December
20, 1913, the plaintiff delivered to the
defendant as a common carrier a cer
tain number of bales of hops for trans
portation to Portland but that during
the. voyage the ship sank and the hops
were namagea. me defense set up
that the plaintiff signed a contract
which excepted the "dangers of navi
gation, fire, leakage, rats, etc." The
defense also set up that the fault of
the sinking was not duo to the care
less ness of the company but the gov
ernment employes operating the dredge
They assert the hops came to their
damage through the neglect and care
lessness of the dredge engineers, who
caused the position of the dredge to be
changed.
The decision of the lower court was
sustained.
The other Marion county case was
that brought by Britt A spin wall,
respondent, against John S. Dunlavy,
appellant, appeal from decision of the
court under Judge Galloway, contro
versy concerning a strip of land 18.42
chains long and 16 links wide at one
end and 18 1-2 links at the other end.
According to the statement of the
case, the plaintiff and the defendant
bought certain tracts of laud from M.
L. Jones and wife that a difficulty
arose later concerning a line fence. The
question at issue concerns " whether
or not" by mutual mistake the laud in
controversy was omitted from the
deed to the respondent."
Careful reading of the record, says
the opinion of Justice Harris, con
vinces that there was no mistake and
that Aspinwall received what he agrcd
to purchase. The decree of the lower
court is reversed and the suit dismissed
without costs to either party. Justices
McRride, Benson, and Burnett concur.
Tho other decisions were as follows:
John Wilson Estate Co., respondent,
against Dammeier Investment com
pany, ct al., appellants, appeal from
Multnomah county, Judge McGinn; ac
tion on a promissory note; affirmed by
Justice Benson.
Theodore Hagenbcrger, respondent,
against town of Milwaukie,-and Sam
uel Riley, fire marshal, appellants, ap
peal from Clackamas county, Judge
Campbell; suit to remove cloud from
title; affirmed by Judge Burnett.
William C. Gregan, respondent,
against the Northwestern National In
surance . company of Milwaukee, Wis.,
appellant, appeal Multnomah county,
Judge Belt; suit to reform policy of
fire insurance; affirmed by Justice
McCammant.
Metropolitan! Investment and Im
provement Co., appellant, against. M.
E. Schonweiller and T. M. Hurlburt,
respondents, appeal suit to enjoin sale
of lot on execution; reversed by Justice

The meeting this evening, of the Busl

Along witii the announcement of so
many things being scarce this spring
comes the startling news that garden
seeds are not so plentiful as in the
years gone by. In fact, seed for those
good old garden standby's such as cab

as the big American seed houses im
ported them from Holland and Denmark
and these countries have now forbidden
their export. Turnip seeds, beets, ear
rots and cauliflower seeds are included
in those that are scarce this year. But
there is some satisfaction in the fact
that seed is plentiful for beans, peas,
lettuce and radishes as these are home
grown and the supply does not depend
ION IRON IRKS
11 CROSS MBA!
Owing to Strike Work at Oak
land To Be Sent to San
Francisco
Oakland, Cal., March 13. Govern
ment ship contracts aggregating more
than $12,000,000, which were to have
been filed at the East Bay plant of
the Union Iron Works on Oakland es
tuary, within the uext two years, have
been transferred to the San Francisco
plant of the same concern on account
of the unsettled labor conditions, ac
cording to announcement made by the
corporation today.
The transfer affects eight subma
rines to cost $50,000 each; six torpedo
boats to cost $1,000,000 each and sev
eral smaller craft. The decision of the
Cnion Iron Works directorate is de
clared to be final and the direct re
sult of the imiortance of the navy con
tracts and turbulent conditions which
made their possible fulfillment a mat
ter of speculation.
This decision follows the walkout
of nearly 2500 skilled and unskilled la
borers at the 1'nion Iron Works shops
last week and the strike of six hundred
unskilled laborers at the Moore and
Scott plant. Many of the skilled la
borers who have quit their employ
ments have oeen compelled to do so
through a scarcity of unskilled helpers
who took- part in the general walkout.
In the meantime efforts are being
mado by city health and public safety
Coinmisioner F. F. Jackson to bring
about a settlement. He held a confer
ence with representatives of the labor
organizations and expects there . will
be a meeting this afternoon of repre

WANT BOYS TRAINEO
BUT 1H0UI GUNS
Mothers Generally Opposed
to Potting Muskets la ,
Boys' Hands
How to keep a musket out of a high
school boy's hands, and yet at the
same time give him the physical ad
vantages of military training is the
problem that is facing not onlv the
Salem school board, but many others ia
the state.
All agree that the youth as well as
the maid should receive patriotic
physical training and that tho young
man should be given exercise similar
to the West Point idea. All agree that
the average youth is flat chested,
stoop shouldered and. his walking is
lacking in the virtue? attributed to a
live man. And all directors here as
well as elsewhere are agreed that some
thing must be done to give that train
ing. How to do it and keep out the
military spirit is the question. W omen
object to the word "military." If the
youth would drill with a broom stick.
the question would be easily solved.
But the average youth has some real
blood in bim and prefers a musket,
while his mother is opposed to any
thing of the kind.
The high school boys are willing and
sent a. committee of two last evening
to attend the meeting of the school
board to discuss, not military train-
ng, but patriotic, physical exercise.
Chairman A. A. Lee and Director Max
O. Buven expressed themselves in
favor of the physical patriotic train
ing, camp instruction and other things
tnc ooy scouts know but to make a
soldier of the youth met with no favor.
The mental training a boy gets in the
way of quick thinking, willingness to
accept discipline and comradeship all
agreed was among the advantages of
the proposed training.
As two of the directors were absent,
E. T. Barnes and H. O. White, no defi
nite action was taken on tho proposal
of the young men who met with the
board to organize. At an early meet
ing the board will take up the prob
lem how to givc tho youth the ad
vantages of the West Point physical
training and at the same time keep out
the military idea. The last legislature
passed a law regarding military train
ing in the public schools but failed to
set aside any funds for the purchase
of equipment.
Rev, Harry Marshall
Home From Bremerton
The Bev. Harry E. Marshall is home
from a successful series of evangelis
tic meetings held at Bremerton telling
of the patriotic feeling in that part of
the world that would surprise the aver
age citizen of- this community. With
the Bremerton navy yard on almost a
war footing, witn factories making
thousands of shells for the navy and
the thousands of naval cadets and en
listed men from the navy coming and
going, Mr. Marshall says the people
just feel more uatriotic, than those in
the interior. He reports Seattle as hav
ing the greatest ship building boom
ever known, with contracts already lef
for $50,000,000 worth of ships.
Mr. Marshall has just closed his
third engagement at Bremerton. All
the churches in the city joined in his
services resulting in 110 converts dur
ing the twelve days he was there.
He will stay iu Salem until Friday
evening when a series of meetings will
begin at independence, holding forth
there until April 3. From Independence
Mr. Marshall will go to Bend, then to
Grass Valley, Or., then to Portland
and Marshlicld before the summer va
cation. Before leaving Bremerton, ar
rangements were made for a return
engagement next fall.
La Grande Woman
Shot In Tong War
La Grande, Or., March 13. One man
was killed and a woman woundod in
an outbreak of tong warfare here this
afternoon. Billy Eng, president of the
Chinese Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation was chased down Adams av
enue by a gunman flourishing a re
volver, overtaken and murdered in
front of the postoffice. Mrs. O. E.
George was hit in the ankle by a
stray bullet. The slayer escaped. An
angry mob of white men is surrounding
the Chinese quarter. The police are
maintaining order with difficulty.
Several shots were fired at Eng be
fore he fell at the postoffice steps.
Half a dozen people stood watching as
the gunmen pressed the muzzle of his
revplver agaiiM Eng's head and fired
four times.
The spectators still stood helpless as
the murderer started away, returned
and calmly snapped the trigger several
times at Eng to make sure nil his
cartridges were used. Then ho ran
across the street and disappeared in a
Chinese shop.
the Salem public an opportunity to
hear one of America's really great men
of the hour.
He has come to Willamette on his
international college tour in which to
date he has visited 63 colleges of our
country, state and denominational, the
great universities and the small col
leges. All concur in the opinion that
Robins is foremost among the nation
men of power.
His simple, clear-cut presentation of
our democracy's social iSnd political
problems, his bold challenge to meet
the facts as the exist in human society,
have given him an epoch-making grip
on the life of the student body of Wil
lamette university.

BILLINGSLY STORY
IS CORROBORATED
Others Fix Date August 29
Instead of 30 But This j
Proves Mistake
Seattle, Wash., Mar. 13. Federal
prosecutors speeded up their work of
corroborating various points in the
amazing testimony given by Logan
Billingslcy, king of bootleggers in Am
erica's largest dry city, when the booze
graft conspiracy trial of Mayor (till,
Chief of Police Bockinham, ex-Sheriff
gHodo and City Detecties Doom, Mc
Lennan, Poolnian and Peyser was resum
ed today.
By a stipulation entered into late yes
terday by the defense, tho government
will not have to spend two weeks prov
ing that the linuor ships involved in
the case were of an interstate char
acter. Attorneys for the defense started
their woss-examination of Arthur R.
Hatton, a bookkeeper for Logan Bil
lingslcy this morning.
Hatton had testified ho heard Logan
quarreling with his brother Fred over
money, iu tho Planters hotel here Aug
ust 30, and that Logan said ho was "go
ing down to sco the old man." That
was tho day Logan Billingslcy cluims
ho paid a $4,000 bribe to Mayor (till.
Steve Allen, night clerk nt the Wash
ington apartments wehor Logan Bil
lingsley lives, and who followed Hut
ton on the stand, told of calling the
mayor's residence on tho telephone at 2
a. m., Christmas day for Billingslcy, and
of hearing a man's voice answer the
call. He said he had given records of
that call and another to the county jail,
to Mrs. Logan Billingslcy as purt of her
mil.
The first marked discrepancy in Log
an Billingslcy 's story of how he bribed
Mayor GUI with $4,000 August 30, was

Railroad Manager
Does Not Expect Strike
New York, March 13. Statements:
made hero today by railway munngern
indicated the ruilroads have prepared
but little for a nation wide strike such
as is threatened to start next Satur
day. Only a few men who are carried us
extras all the time are immediately
available. No plans have been made, it.
was stated, for filling the places of
the men with strikebreakers.
An optimistic feeling was express
ed by the managers, however. They de
clare neither owners nor men could
aford to have n strike called at this
time. Unofficially, four reasons were
given for this feeling.
That tho railways could not, under
any cireumstuuees, afford to see their
lines tied up at the present time.
The men could not afford the loss
of work with wages for railway work
ers at their present stage and with tin;
test of tho Adumson law scaling a.
decision
The public would not stand for 1ho
situation. Pressure would be so great,
it was declared, that the men would
have to return to their work.
And lust, that the president would
end the strike, should one be called, by
exercising his right to take over tho
roads as a matter of national prepared
ness. Stewart, of Portlund, has awarded to
Stokes & Zcller the contract for a cot
tage near Cottage avenue, east of tho
golf course. The contract culls for its
completion before April 1. Several
others are planning to build during
March to insure completion in advance
of the summer season.
