MILLION DOLLARS FOR
REPAIRS OF OREGON

Washington, Feb. 4.-The famous
battleship Oregon is to be modernized.
and Secretary Metcalf announced Sat-
urday that he had authorized the ex-
penditure of 81, 600, 900 out Of the re-
pair fund for that purpose. OF the
best type of warship when she was
launched, the Oregon is already al
most obsolete, and to make her equal
to modern men of war she must be ex-
tensively overhauled.
The changes will be similar to those
ordered for her sister ship, the India
ma, the most important being the sub
stitution of balanced elliptical turrets
for the present round turrets, which
cause the ship to heel when all four
l2-inch guns are pointed over the
same quarter The alterations will
be made at the Puget Sound navy
yard, where the Oregon has been ly-
ing since her return from the China
station, and will consume one year.

IMAM. MAN TO GET MORE PAY

$1,000. 0oo More for Salaries Which
Railroads VIII Be Mulctsd.
Washington, Feb. 4.-The postofi1ce
appropriation bill, which the house
committee on postofices and post
roads has just completed, will carry
5000, 1870, SOL. This is the largest
amount ever carried for the annual ex-
penditures Of the postal service. The
total recommended in the bill is more
than $1,000, 900 in excess of the
amount estimated for the department
and is an increase of SIT, 500, 542 over
the current appropriation.
The salaries of postal clerks and of

creased total of $1,000, 900. Pro-
vision is inserted in the bill for the

tions of clerks and carriers are made

COMPROMISE IN PAY.
FOR RAILWAY MAIL

Washington, Feb. "A compromise
Of the proposed reduction in railway
mail pay has been agreed upon be-
tween representatives of the various
railroads which have mail contracts
and the house committee on postofflces
and post roads.
The proposition to compromise was
made through Representative Hedge,
Of Iowa. The bill provides for per
cent reduction on all contracts over
routes averaging 48, 600 pounds per
day; 10 per cent reduction on all
routes averaging from 48, 600 to $4,000
pounds per day, and fiat rate Of $40
per ton per mile per car on all routes
averaging more than 80, 600 pounds
day.
Through Mr.. Hedge the railway
men agreed to accept this cut provid
ing the fiat rate on routes over 80, 600
pounds day be increased to $40 ton.
The committee agreed on $40 and this
was accepted.
In addition to reducing the price per
ton which railroads are to be paid for
hauling mail, which will amount to at
least IS, 600, 900. the committee has
approved out of 81, 600, 600 in the
price to be paid railroads for the rent
Of mail cars. The committee also de-
cided that the weight Of mail bags
must not hereafter be added to the
weight Of mail In computing the
amount carried.

fire LOSS FOR Year
FoOTs UP $5oo,OoO,ooO

Washington, Feb. 4.-The records
and tabulating for 1906 have just been
completed and show that the grand
total expended in building during the
year throughout the country, reaches
1904, 900. 900. Stupendous as is that
sum it has fallen considerably below
expectations. 1t was confidently ex-
pencted early in the year that $685.
600, 900 would be the total reached.
The total shows gain Of little over
2 per cent on the amount of building
done in 1905. However proud the
United States may be Of its growth,
the figures represent but little more
than the value Of property permitted
to be destroyed by fire during the
same period, for our fire losses for 1906
have been in excess Of $500, 600, 600
loss that, says Mr.. F. w. Fitzpat-
rick, the executive officer Of the Inter-
national Society Of Building Inspec-
tors, has never been equalled in any
country at any time, and that should
mark the apex of the country's folly.
Further, Mr.. Fitzpatrick, acknow-
lodged among the highest authorities
on matters Of construction In the coun-
try, contends that nine-tenths of these
losses are ,preventable. He points out
that as the majority of buildings have
been built and are being built, there
is absolutely no assurance that equal,
If not greater losses, will not be the
order of the day in the future; that
our energies seem bent on probing
fire-lighting appliances and in paying
excessive rates for so-called fire in
surance, raher than in building so our
structures cannot be destroyed by fire.

White PASS { YUKON
GOES TO GUGGENHEIMS

Vancouver, B. O., Feb. 6.-The Ev-
ening World says:
The Guggenheims have secured the
railway and steamship holdings of the
White Pass & Yukon railway. The
news was brought down from White
Horse by the steamer Amur. It is also
stated that the Guggenheims may es-
tablish steamship line between VAN
couver and Skagway, the boats also
calling at Seattle. Commenting on the
report the White Horse Star says:
''H it 10 true, as reported, that $42,-
600 freight was paid on the Bear Greek
dredge, it certainly stands the Gug-
genheims in hand to own their own
transportation lines before attempting
to establish several dozen dredges in
the country.
"With local transportation lines in
the hands of the Guggenheims, the
possibility of the local copper fields
and of the entire quartz interests of
the Southern Yukon are greater than
can be computed. The Guggenheims
had several experts out for weeks last
fall, and if true that the railroads
have changed hands, there is little
doubt that the reports Of these experts
were largely instrumental in stimulat-
ing the purchase. The proposition is
a gigantic one, and we believe the con-
summation of the reported deal would
rebound to the interests Of all Yukon.

GREAT NORTHERN TRAIN
BURIED IN SNOWSLIDE

Chiwaukum, Feb. THE last train
to pass this point was Great Northern
No. 8. of Feb. 2, at 1857 a. m. Since
that hour the severest storm expert
enced for years has ragged. The depth
of the old snow to that date was a
good four feet, and to this has been
added two and half feet the past SO
hours. The first warning of the ap-
proach Of this storm was on Feb. 2,
when the thermometer rose to "a
above at p. m. BY o. m. it had
fallen to IA above zero. Yesterday
snow filled the track up to almost level
with the top of the snow which had
been thrown by the rotaries. Rain set
in at p. m. and sealed the whole
into a solid mass. Great Northern
passengert rain No. of Sunday is bur-
led in the snow slide at Gaynor sta
ton, along with four engines and two
rotaries. Passengers are faring we'll,
however, as food has been supplied in
plenty from Cascade tunnel and Mer-
rett. The Great Northern has 700
men, all that are available, at work
east and west of the tunnel. During
the awful gale that passed over the
Cascade range the company had the
outfit, men and one rotary and Passen-
ger train No. 2 of Feb. 4, stored in
side of snow sheds in the west slope.
Logging operations and others of such
nature will be suspended for the re-
mainder Of the winter, or at least un-
til the snow is reduced by thaw, which
is feared on account Of the liability
to foods.
