He Found That Double Orders

When the Easterner spends money

Should he go 10 restaurant ne
would better ask the price of the

1t is not because the arrangements

The Jeanie was backing when she
collided with the Dix and the impact
was very slight

The passengers jumped from the
decks into the water
The women screamed.
Officers and men called orders that
could hardly be heard above the din.
Passengers from the Dix, who could
swim, made their way to the sides of
the Jeanie and were dragged aboard.
The Jeanie was not moved until aft
er all who had reached her had been
hauled aboard. Then she cruised
about picking up several who had
managed to stay above water.
1t was after 10 o'clock before the
Jeanie left the scene of the catastro-
phe and steamed to the Virginia street
dock, Seattle, with the thirty nine sur
vivors.
The Jeanie of the Alaska Coast Co.
had finished unloading at the Great
Northern docks at Smiths cove and
had started for Tacoma shortly before
z o'clock, just about the same time the
Dix left the Flyer dock for Port Blake
ly.
There were no passengers on the
Jeanie. The Dix was making the last
trip of the night and was well filled
with passengers. When within about
two miles north of Allxi Point the two
steamers were within short distance
of each other, steaming along in con-

steamer and were drowned as In q

Capt. p. Lennon of the Dix was
among those picked out of the water
by the crew of the Jeanie. He said:
Il don't think the vessel was very
badly damaged by the collision. 1t

Captain Mason of the Jeanie says he
signaled for the Dix to pass him and
his whistle was answered The Dix
was then within speaking distance OF
the Jeanie and to the port of her.
Suddenly Mate Dennison, who was at
the wheel of the Dix put her hard over
to starboard, as If to cross in front of
the other vessel.
Captain Mason of the Jeanie, who
was on the bridge, saw that an acci-
dent was imminent and called out a
warning to the man at the wheel of the
Dix.
Captain Mason gave the signal to re-
verse his engines and his vessel was
slowly backing away when the two
came together
There was but slight crash, the
force of the collision from the Dix
coming against the side of the larger
vessel and not that of the heavier
craft against the smaller.
For minute all was still, then the
panic followed. When the Dix started
to sink, stern first, the passengers and
the members of the crew leaped into

Indian Commissioner Leupp
Makes an interesting Report

Washington, Nov 19.-The annual
report of Francis E. Leupp, commis-
sioner of Indian affairs, has been made
public. Mr.. Leupp says no congress
passed so much legislation of vital inn
portance to the Indians as the last
session. To promote the training of
the Indian in the culture Of sugar beets
and to secure legislation, looking to an
equitable division of tribal funds,
thereby making the red man free and
Independent citizen, are the two pro-
jects for which the Commissioners is
working as future accomplishments.
Regarding the allotments of tribal
funds, the commissioner says that
while he would prefer notifications in
the Lacey bill, which passed the house
and is now before the senate, he would
rather see this measure become law
than to have no action taken. Indians
have been encouraged during the past
year to seek labor outside the reserva-
tions with a showing of beneficial re-
suits, which leads the commissioner to
regard this valuable means of de-
veloping self supporting independence.
The co-education of white and Indian
children in the public schools has been
encouraged. To this end contracts
have been made with county school
authorities wherever practicable, and
the result has been gratifying. The
expenditure for the Indians for the past
fiscal year aggregates $12,745,859. The
commissioners explains that the items
of largest increase were the one full
filing treaty stipulations, $1,715,e21,
and the irrigation project on which
$3,194,793 was spent. A revision of the
methods of awarding contracts has
been made, which the commissioner
believes will result in saving of
funds and in securing better supplies.
Mr.. Leupp declares the Burke law will
enable the Indian Office to manage the
affairs Of the helpless class OF Indians
with undisputed authority, and to re-
move from the roll Indians who no
longer need any supervision from a

years old. The bill, ne said, would
provide that every carrier of interstate
commerce shall require an affidavit
that every factory or mine owner
shipping ITS produce does not employ
children under la years OF age, the
form Of the affidavit to be prescribed

civil and criminal, Tor violation of the
law.
Senator Beyeridges bill to amend
the meat inspection law will require
the putting OF the date OF inspections
ON every can of meat product, and the
packers to pay the cost OF inspection.
These two provisions. he said, are
demanded by the people, and agitation
for them will not cease until these
provisions become q part Of the law.

President Roosevelt Sailed
From Colon to Porto Rica

Colon, Nov. 19.--President Roosevelt
and his party sailed Saturday night
at 10 o'clock for Ponce, Porto Rico,
on board the United States battleship
Louisiana
After riding on horseback through
the muddy streets of Colon Saturday
afternoon, the presiden. went to the
residence Of Mr.. Biers, general mana
ger of the Panama railroad, for din
ner. Those present included Chair
man of the Canal Commission Shonts,
Chief Engineer Stevens and their
wives; Secretary Latta, and Surgeon
General Rixey. The secret service men
with the presidential party dined at an
adjoining house.
AT $3.50 o'clock President Roosevelt
reached Pier No. IL, where there was
a gathering of at least 500 persons,
principally canal employees at Cristobal
and other points along the line. Here
the president made short speech In
giving his impressions of the work on
the canal, he said he was pleased with
what already had been done, and paid
his respects to those who had adverse

came from among the auditors. With
much deliberation the president re-
marked that in every large work there
always was some one to find some-
thing that was not done as it should
have been; but the employees should
on no account pay attention to such
criticisms, as they would sink out OF
sight while the work the men were do
ing and had done would remain long
after all criticism had been forgotten.
President Roosevelt said also he was
SO impressed with the magnitude and
greatness Of this work that he would
like to see one of his sons engaged
therein. He congratulated all the
heads Of departments upon the work
being done, and with especial warmth
he congratulated Captain George r..
Shanton on his success in maintain
ing order in the canal zone and in per-
fecting the splendid police force under
