OREGON RIVERS OUT OF BANKS.
Willamette Higher Than Ever Be.
fore Recorded.

Portland, Ore, jan 26-The heavy
rains of the past forty-eight hours
have caused the snow in the Cascade
and coast range mountains to melt
rapidly, and all the streams flowing
into the Willamette river have be-
come torrents. Advices from the up
per river show that the Willamette
is higher than ever before recorded,
and much damage has been done to
farms along the river bottoms. Many
booms of logs have broken away and
several million feet of sawlogs set
adrift. The river at this city rose
three feet during the night and
stands fifteen feet above low water.
The weather bureau predicts further
rise on account of the large volume of
water in the upper river, though no
serious damage has resulted along the
water front. No through trains ar
rived over the Southern Pacific on
account of washout between Harris
burg and Junction City.

DAWSON CITY ENTERS PORT.

Vessel Takes Eiehty-six Days Between
Nome and Port Townsend.
Port Townsend, Wash, Jan. 26.-
The steamer Dawson City, eighty-six
days from Nome, reached port yester-
day under sail, after a tempestuous
voyage. The entire trip was marked
by succession of accidents and ex-
citing delays, while the fury of the
elements seemed to combine to hinder
her passage to her destination. Soon
after starting south the boilers COM
menced leaking with the result that
the fresh water supply was consumed
Then fuel began to run short and the
vessel was forced to resort to such
canvas aboard as could be fashioned
into sails. The vessel put into Port
Moller for fuel and water and after
remaining two weeks started again,
only to run into fierce storms, which
drove her from her course. Again
fuel ran out, so the Dawson City
headed for Dutch Harbor to refill her
hunkers and tanks. At this port her
sailors deserted and refused to con-
tinue the voyage. The run from Dutch
Harbor to this port was made in twen-
ty-two days. The Dawson City brought
no passengers except her owner, Felix
Brown of Seattle and his wife.

London. Jan. 26.-The signing Of
the Anglo-American commission to
settle the Alaskan boundary dispute
at Washington Saturday has given
great satisfaction to the English press
On the ground that it gives at a crit
tcal moment in the Venezuelan trouble
an undoubted proof of the uninter.
rupted friendliness existing between
Great Britain and the United States.
Ihis is the point which is elaborated
In all the editorials on the subject
almcst to the exclusion of discussion
of the intrinsic merits of the arrange.
ment concluded. Little doubt is enter
tanned here that the United States
senate Will accept the treaty and that
the commission will ultimately meet
In London. but regret is expressed
that no provision is made for the ap-
polntment Of an umpire because In
the event of the commission being
equally divided in opinion, it is said
the controversy will be very little
nearer settlement.
Toronto, Jan. pa dispatch from
Washington regarding the signing of
treaty TO refer the Canada-Alaska
boundary dispute to arbitration was
not unexpected. The question is
asked here, "how far does the treaty
go% Il the entire boundary dispute
without the Dyea and Skagway reser-
yatlon is TO be referred to the arbi-
tration commission, then Canada does
not stand to be in any worse condl-
flon than she is today. If the owner
ship OF Dyea and Skagway has been
conceded to the United States, Canada
is placed in dangerous position. 1t
is believed if the United States wins
over the British representative, then
good bye to Canadian contentious.

doubt that the United Mine Workers
would be thraash all their convention
work Thursday and the miners would
be ready for the conference with the

Members OF the defense fund COM
mittee will report in favor of a large
fund. Suggestions to the committee
recommend that fund of from $2,O0o,-
900 to $5,0G0,000 be maintained. Nu-
merous plans are suggested. The one
which finds most favor with the dele
gates is to invest the money now in
the treasury in bonds and other gilt
edged securities drawing good rates OF
Interest, which could be realized on
at once in case of necessity. 1t is
the universal demand that a national
defense fund be maintained but the
majority of the delegates are op-
posed to any plan which takes the
money out of circulation and ties it
up in banks and other repositories
which pay no interest The greater
number of the delegates are in favor
of creating state or district defense

The coal operators will begin to ar
rive in the city Wednesday for the

Wants Football Made a Crime.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan. 26.-Among
the bills introduced in the legislature
is one which is designed to put stop
to the playing of football in South Da-
kota. The provisions of the bill are
severe. and under it the standing OF
the football player is even worse than
that of criminal. A player makes
himself liable to a fine of $1,000 and
Ave years imprisonment, while the
simply announcing of his intention
to play makes him subject to being
placed under a heavy bond.

Senator Quay Ready to Enforce Night
Sessions to Pass Measure--CpPo-
nents of Sill Prepared TO Talk 1t
to Death.

Washirgto Jan. 26.--The feature OF
the week in the senate will be the coz
tinuatior of the contest over the state
hood bill. The lines are now more
closely drawn than they have ever
been On this bill. They are. indeed,
SO taut that all onlookers realize that
they are about to break, but lew lln-
preiudiced persons would undertake
to say positively on which side the
disaster must fall. The advocates
of statehood were much encouraged
by the vote of last week. and contend
ing that it has been demonstrated that
there is majority OF the senate favor
able to the bill, they declare that it is
preposterous to ask them to yield.
Ii is the intention, however, to use
the appropriation bills only in case
there should be an effort to hold night
sessions in order to secure action or
the statehood bill. Senator Quay has
more TIN once indicated his intention
of asking the senate to "sit ccntinu-
ore y which means that he is con-
tt -.plating night sessions. The gen
eral understanding among the friends
Of the measure is that the prolonged
session test will come early in the
week, possibly about tomorrow night.
Senator Quay now asserts his inten-
ton to press the bill more strenuously
than in the past, and the opposition
Is just as pronounced in its declaration
of intention to resist its passage
They say that the bill cannot pass and
some of then announce that they
would rather take the responsibility
for an extra session of congress than
have the statehood bill become a law.
Senator Cullom will make an effort
whenever the opportunity offers to Sc
cure consideration of the Cuban treaty
and he said that he would again move,
If necessary, to have the senate go
into executive session during the week
for the purpose of taking up the
treaty. Senator Cullom also has In
charge the Panama canal treaty and
expresses a. desire to secure early
consideration, but as several of the
members of the committee on foreign
relations before which the treaty is
pending, find II necessary to be out
Of the city during the week. 1t does
not seem probable that the canal
