Dix Tied Up at Mouth of River
Because Of LoEs Trip
From Portland.
STORMY WEATHER COMES UP
Detention Is Regretted, as IL
May Give Portland IA Black
Waterfront Move
ments Yesterday.

As was expected. the transport DIX
is bar-hound at the mouth of the river.
with little chance of getting TO sea
for some days to come The storm that
threatened Thursday evening came up
with some violence, and the bar was
so rough yesterday that the Dix
could not get to sea. She will not at
tempt to leave the harbor until the bar
is moderate.
This circumstance points out the
great inconvenience which shipping
suffers because of the inforced inland
passage. The Dix was 80 hours in
making the trip down from Portland.
whereas, had she arrived in reason
able time, she could have got to sea
Thursday morning. Now she will be
compelled to lie In the lower harbor
for days-perhaps weeks at great
loss and inconvenience to the govern
ment, which demands prompt dispatch
for its vessels,
The circumstance is greatly regretted
here, for the reason that it may have
the effect of seriousdly interfering
with future efforts on the part of de-
serving merchants of Portland to fur
nish supplies to the government. It
was only after great effort that the de-
partment agreed to send the big car
rier to Portland, and the poor showing
which she is making will not add to
the prestige Of the port. The delay
is occasioned by the slow trip which
the DIX made down the river. and. as
the inland channel Is in better, shape
now than has been the case for a long
time. the case of the Dix is all the
more lamentable.

Offers Services to Japan but Con
sui States That They Can
Not Enlist.
JAP OFFICIAL IS GRATEFUL
Will Forward Request to Gov
ernment and Will Later Give
Out Reply of His Sup
eriOr Officers.

Seattle, Feb. ls.--No less than 25
national guardsmen OF Seattle recently
offered their services to Japan In case
that nation went TO war with Russia
In call upon Saburo Hisamidzu, the
Japanese consul at Seattle. that gentle
man was formally notified of the fact.
Japanese laws do not permit foreign
ers to enlist in her army or navy, and
the young men were SO told, but
the consul notified the government Of
what had happened, citing it as evi-
dence Of the good feelings cherished
by Americans towards his nation.
The talk of the war has been rife
in the armory of Seattle's national
guard companies. In fact it has been
the main topic of discussion. War
fever begun to take hold and in a short
time had become epidemic. Among
officers and men the hope that hos
tilities would break out quickly was
expressed each night. And coupled
with this expression of hope was the
wish that the speakers might get a.
chance to go to the front
This finally resulted in action, The
news that japanese troop ships. man
ned by European crews. had been taken
from the Mediterranean to that ma
tons ports gave rise to the reports that
these crews were to serve Japan in
the coming war.
When this report came the local
national guardsmen thought they saw
a good opportunity to get into the
fighting. AS result a quiet caucus
among a few Of the bolder spirit was
held. And at this caucus It was decid-
ed to send an emissary to the Japan
ese consul to offer enlistment, or at
least to determine whether there would
be chance to get the acceptance of
such an offer.
The tender was received with cour-
tesy and with spirit Of qualification
responsive to its evidence Of good feel
Ing. But Saburo Hisamidzu was com
pelled to infor mhis visitors that ac-
ceptance would be impossible, owing
to the laws of his country. He promis-
ed to send word to his superiors of the
fact. and to notify the caller should
anything come OF 1t.

WHAT'S MIR. HILL UP TO?
Is He Planning Line to the Gull
of Mexico?

Louis H. Hill, vice president of the
Great Northern road, says there is
foundation for the report that rail-
road from the northern boundary to
the gulf is projected. It is believed
in Sioux City. that the Great Northern
and the Burlington systems are plan
ming to build a north-and-south line.
A few weeks before the decision in
the Hartman case Mr.. Hill sent for
a few business men of Sioux City and
told them that he wanted franchises
for a road to be built thru the city,
and that he desired control Of the
Union Terminal company. He was
emphatic concerning the increase of
business to and from the central vail
leys and the southern coast after the
completion of the Panama canal. The
Great Northern goes to Sioux City and
the Burlington reaches from Omaha
to Kansas City, leaving a gap of nine
ty miles between Omaha and Sioux
City, which gap is apparently to be
filled by mysterious electric line
with ninety-pound rails. The latest
piece of significant news is that the
Union Terminal company will not re-
new it's lease with the Illinois Central.

cession Which Will Have to Be

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, April 28.--The Iowa rail-
road commission has forced the break
ing of the agreement of western rail-
road officials not to give free return
transportation to shippers Of live
stock. The members Of the commits
sion held conference here yester-
day with the leading traffic officials
Of the railroads I'M that state. The
commission presented the protests of
live stock shippers against the agree
ment of the railroads not to give
passes for the return trip. The ship
pers said that cattle were delayed in
transit and not properly cared for
unless accompanied to the market.
The railroads admitted that since they
had stopped giving such return passes
they had received an unusually large
number of claims for losses and dam
ages due to delay in transportation
and the lack of care of cattle.
Not until the commission intimated
it might exert its power to order big
reductions in freight rates for live
stock did the railway officials decide
that, Ito facilitate the movement of
live stock from Iowa." they would
give free transportation to persons
sent in charge of live stock. The rail-
roads cannot give return passes to
Iowa shippers unless they give them
also to shippers from other states.
Hence the antipass agreement will be
a dead letter hereafter.
