Steam Schooner Owners Expect En-
uineers to Back Down.

0LGdEn OCUOOUEi S"fS'~
aineers to Back Down.
According to an Associated Press
dispatch received yesterday by The AS
torian. there is now probability that
the steam Schooner Owners Associa-
ton and the Marine Engineers Asso-
ciation will get together. The two as
sociations have been involved because
Of differences over the question Of over
time, and several vessels, among them
the Robert Dollar, Rival and Arctic,
have been temporarily tied up at San
Francisco. The situation promises to
cripple the coastwise trade il an un-
derstanding is not reached.
The dispatch received yesterday
states that there is likelihood of an
amicable adjustment within the next
: few days, but the information contain
ed in the message does not bear out
the optimistic prediction of the open
ing paragraph. It is stated that pend
ing settlement of the differences, the
steam schooners are being tied up as
fast as they arrive in port, and the
dispatch concludes as follows:
"At a meeting of the owners, held
last evening, they unanimously agreed
TO stick to their intention to refuse to
accept any proposition having clause
in it making any allowance for over
time"
This would seem to indicate that the
owners have determined to combat th'
demands Of the union, and that an ad'
iustment can be reached only through
complete backdown on the part o
the union. AS the engineers association
is a well organized body, it is not quit
clear the owners will win their fight

reached a generous figure. The names Of

the fund not to disclose names unless au-
thorization to do so accompanies the be-
quest.

smaller ones are being received and it will
not be many months before the necessary

quests came from George AIDE and John

came from the father of a Purdue athlete.
Many $50 gifts have been received in the
last week from ex-Purdue men. The COM
mittee is holding frequent meetings and
the work here and elsewhere has been kept
well in hand and the results are crafty
ing in the extreme. 1t is believed that the

ANDERSON, Ind. March 2S.-In special
to this city from New Orleans tonight the
story of Governor Durbin's visit to the
prison where l.. II. Vinnedge is confined
is related. Governor Durbin thought it

might be needed in an official capacity to
assist in the removal of Vinnedge to In
diana. He left the ST. Charles Hotel yes
terday morning and went to the Office of
Chief of Police Journee. There the Gov
ernor was introduced to Chief of Detectives
Flotte and Captain Rennyson, who were
the officials most prominent in the capture
of Vinnedge.
Vinnedge was brought to the reception
room of the prison and was much abashed
when he was confronted by the Governor
of his native State and fellow-townsman.
Mr.. Durbin asked Vinnedge if he would re-
turn without requisition papers, and he
stated that he would. The Governor then
asked how the money had been spent and
Vinnedge replied that he unable to
say, he had had complete lapse OF
memory since leaving Anderson. The pris-
oner left New Orleans during the night in
company with Chief Mark Robbins of the
Anderson police.

GIRL CRAZED BY FLOOD
SCENES IS MISSING
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MARION, Ind, March 2S.-BecOming de-
mented after reading of the destructive
flood in Marion and Jonesboro, which cost
three lives, Artie Pierce, aged seventeen
years, daughter of Thomas Pierce, living
east of the city, wandered away from her
home last night and her father and the po-
lice authorities, who are conducting a
search, have been unable to locate her.
Absolutely no trace has been found of
her during day and the parents are dis
tracted, as they fear that harm has befallen
her.
Miss Pierce first became mentally de-
pressed several years ago when she was in
the company of Tacie Mang, who was shot
and killed by her jealous lover, Noah John
son, now serving a life sentence. Shortly
after the tragedy Miss Pierce was declared
of unsound mind and she was taken to the
asylum for treatment. She improved and
returned to her parents. She showed no
further mental weakness until yesterday
when she read of the death-dealing floods.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, March 2S.-One
hundred delegates of the United Mine
Workers of Indiana met to-day to arrange
for the joint conference with the oper-
ators on Wednesday to sign the wage scale.
The many details of the contract not stipu-
lated in the interstate agreement at In
dianapolis will occupy the conference for
a day or two, but both miners and operat-
ors say the probability is that there will
be no serious disagreement. If the con-
tract should not be signed before April 1
the men will continue at work, but 1t is
likely that at most mines there will be
an amicable agreement for idleness, as the
operators want to do repair work.
