HOTTEST OCEAN RACE

from Cramps shipyards. There she was
groomed and her engines put in spick-
and-span order. The Lucania's best
time is five days. seven hours and %
minutes, while days and two hours is
the best time the St Paul has made
heretofore. She expects to break that
record this trip. with all these inn
provements she has undergone.
The present race was made possible
two weeks ago, when the American
line shifted its sailing day from We'd
nesday to Saturday, thus coming into
direct competition with the Cunard
line. From now on it will be a fight
every sailing day to get mail into Lon
don first.
1t has been contended that the Amer
lean line mail could get into London
before mail carried on the Cunard
line, because the American line touch
ed at southampton, which is nearer
London than Liverpool. Last week the
American line mail did beat the Gu
nard line mail into London by narrow
margin, but the margin was not
enough to count, and only added to the
rivalry between the lines. This rival
ny has now become so keen that the
officers of the Cunard line in Liverpool
have attempted to get the railroad
officials to run train to London be-

There seems to be only one eX-
PLANTATION of the state of criminology
which now exists in Spokane. Either
the numerous crooks who visit the
city every once in a while come here
pretty well "hecled" with money or
else the reputation of the local police
has put fear into their hearts. It's
a peculiar thing, but fact neverthe-
less. that whenever any of the real
tough characters make turn in this
city they are invariably caught and
sent to the penltentiary.
Reports from other cities tell of the
dolngs of crooks continually, but for
the most part they escape without
suffering capture. The efficient local
detective force is without doubt one
of the finest body of sleuths ever
gathered in any city, especially in
the northwest. With Spokane II regu-
lar dumping ground for these people
as they travel from one part of the
country to the other. 1t Is surprising
how few of them attempt what in the
parlance of the crook Is styled q

case of the alleged forger, c. II. New

there would be a falling of in the

NEW YORK. Dec, 3.-The most ex-
citing and hotly contested race that
has ever taken place on the ocean is
expected to end this evening when one
of the king ocean greyhounds, the st.
Paul, or the Lucania. will sail into
Liverpool or Southampton. The YES
sells left this city last Saturday. The
big American liner st. Paul cut loose
her moorings, backed into the stream
and was off down the bay.
One hour and a half later the Lu-
cania of the Cunard line cut loose her
moorings and was off after the st.
Paul.
There is rivalry In this great race
across the Atlantic. The American and
Cunard lines are rivals. Captain Rob
erts in command of the st. Paul and
Captain Mckay in command of the Lu-
CANA, are rivals. The boats are rivals
for carrying the mails between Ameri-
ca and Europe. They are rivals in
point of speed All this rivalry has
taken possession of the passengers, and
the crews worked up with an enthusi-
astic interest which bordered on ex-
element.
The St. Pauis advantage in having a
start of an hour and half is offset by
the greater distance she will have to
60 She must go on to Southampton,
while Liverpool, which is somewhat
nearer to New York. is the port to
which the Lucania is bound.

Railroads DON 7
FEAR THE COURTS

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-It Is the be-
lief of the leading railroad officials
of the country that the next period
Of depression will cause only few of
the railroads of the United States to
be forced into the hands of receivers.
This belief is based on two grounds.
1t is pointed out that the physical
condition of the railroads throughout
the country has attained the highest
state, and the companies are now in a
condition where they can run with
comparatively little extra work for a
number of years. An immense amount
of work has been done on the rail-
| roads during the last five years in the
way of heavier rails, more powerful
equipment, better roadbeds and the
replacement of wooden bridges by
, steel structures. These improvements
| will make needless the early expendi-
| ture of great amount of money to
| maintain their present condition. 1t
will permit the railroads 10 retrench
| their maintenance expenses without
| injury to the physical condition of the
property. For instance. during the
| last few years many of the railroads
have increased their maintenance of
way expenditures from around $500
to from $1,000 to $14O0 a mile. SINH
| lar increases have been made in the
| expenditures on equipment.
These expenditures have not only
| been sufficient to maintain the prop
erty, but have also included a large

Jury Trial Cases.

A hurry up move is on at the court
house to get the large docket of civil
cases wiped out before the end of the
term. Judge Belt is in correspondence
with out-oftown judges in the hope
of getting one of them to sit in Spo-
zane next week and get through with
the jury trial cases with as much expe-
dition as is possible.
Judge Richardson is not expected
back from Colville until about the
l4th, and possibly not then. There is
not very large criminal docket on
hand, only eight being on the waiting
list. and not all of them ready for
trial. The list is as follows: w. A.
Royce, burglary; Charles Patton, rob
berry; Frank Rutledge, perjury; Will
liam Patch, robbery; c. III. Harrison,
COW stealing: Duke Deathrridge, bur-
glary; William Weber, larceny; and
Frank Van Louten, unnameable crime.
1t is also probable that the state cases
against several local dentists for vio-
lation of the state law will be dis
posed of.
