Government Enjoins Secrecy.

Washington, April 1.-THE circua
lar. to bidders who may construct the
1906 battleships was sent by the navy
department. This circular gives the
chief characteristics of the newly de.
signed ships of 10000 tons displace.
ment, the general description of
which has already been published.
The most notable departure from the
usual design is in the chance given
bidders to submit designs for turbine
instead of the ordinary reciprocating
engines. The circulars are labeled
Confidential" the first adoption Of
that term by secretary in connection
with such information by the navy
department. The policy is somewhat
reciprocal, and is evidently borrowed
from the British, who have MAIN
tained the greatest silence concerning
the Dreadnaught.
Practically nothing is known re-
garding the British $4,000 ton ship
except its size and battery, and 1t Is
intended that the details concerning
the American ships be similarly
guarded. ftltneTtO tne circulars nave
been distributed to whomsoever chose
to ask for them. They contain moth
ing but the general description, and
do not embrace the plans, which have
always been regarded as confidential
matter.
There is a difference of opinion
among naval officers regarding the
wisdom and value of imposing Sc
crecv regarding the circulars. Some
of them think it is necessary and
ought to be done at all cost; others
take the view that nothing is calculat-
ed to invite curiosity and create a
demand for certain information more
than the circumstance of its conf
dental quality. 1t is possible that the
navy department will relieve the doc
ument of its confidential character
but for the present it will be guarded
as government secret and letters
have been sent to intending bidders,
advising them of that fact.

BUILD DOWN THE COAST.
Oregon Coast Il Eastern Capitalized
for $4,000. 900.

Portland, April 1.-THE Oregon
Coast & Eastern Railway company,
after preliminary work covering a
period of two years, filed articles of
incorporation today for the building
of approximately 1900 miles of main
line in the state of Oregon. The syn
dicate has for months had about 20
men at work on right of way, and nDw
has four-fifths of its secured for the
coast line from Portland to Humboldt
bay, California. Construction work
will be fully under way within the
next four months.
George b. Cornell, a well known
New York civil engineer, will be chief
engineer and will be on the ground
within a few days. He has gained
some distinction in the railroad world
by having been the chief engineer of
the Metropolitan Elevated railway in
New York city.
The capital stock of the company
is $10,000,0O and this amount has
already been subscribed by the New
York and st. Louis capitalists inter-
ested. party of these men will Wis
1t Portland within short time and
make trip over the entire line ac-
companied by New York consulting
engineer for the purpose of deciding
final locations. The coast line will be
400 miles long and the line through
central oregon from Coos bay to the
Snake river will be 500 miles, forming
a junction with the coast line and
probably connecting with the Moffat
road and with the Chicago & North
western.
1t is reported that the st. Louis
men who are heavily interested in the
project have large coal interests along
the Moffat road in Colorado. The
Crabtree concern of st. Louis has .S0,-
600 acres of coal lands there, of which
5000 acres Is anthracite coal, that
can be brought into the Portland and
coast markets at rate materially
smaller than present prices.

DRIVEN AWAY
BY DYNAMITE
HILL FORCES SAID TO
HAVE BEEN VICTORS.
Strife Was Over the Right of Way
Claimed by the Columbia Valley
Line, Near La Camas. Wash.-Har-
riman Forces Took Possession Of
Grade Claimed by the Hill People,
and Could Only BE Dislodged by
Use of Dynamite.

Portland, April 12.-Pulling sput-
tering fuses out of dynamite sticks to
prevent them exploding and killing
the workmen under his care was the
spectacular stunt of Chief Engineer p.
L. Wise. of the Columbia Valley rail-
road early Monday morning on the
grade near La Camas, Wash. The
burning sticks OF explosive We're hurl-
ed into a deep cut among the Column
bia Valley workers by a gang of Port
nally the bombarding party cut the
fuse so short they could not be pull
ed out. and the Hartman laborers
were forced to flee.
The trouble occurred on the Nc
Isaac farm, which II claimed to be the
property Of the Columbia Valley rail-
road. The rival read has gone ahead
and built its grade across the place,
and injunctions asked by the owners
to prevent the work have been turn
ed down by the Washington courts.
The Hartman forces camped rear
the scene OF the difficulty Sunday
night and We're up at daylight Monday
morning. BY 4:30 o'clock they We're
at work taking up the track for dump
cars that had been laid in the cut,
and soon track, cars and other ma
terials were piled on the one side.
Then work was begun deepening the
cut to get down four feet to the CO.
lumbia Valley grade. When the Hill
graders came to work they tried to
drive the interlopers from the cut,
but were unable to do so. They then
resorted to dynamite.
There is but scant room along the
river bank, and In many places there
Is room but for one track. At some
point 1t may be necessary for the two
lines to use a common tunnel. At
any rate, the lines will cross each
other frequently, and the location of
tracks will be fought to the bitter
end. The roads will run close to-
gether for 100 miles,
