WILL have GREAT fleet
ON The PACIFIC COAST

Complete plans for the consolidation
into one fleet of all American cruising
vessels in the Pacific ocean have been
made public by the navy department.
The order probably will go into effect
about the end of this month, when
Rear Admiral Brownson will become
commander in chief of all American
naval vessels in the Pacific. Rear Ad
miral Swinburne will be commander Of
the second squadron, and Rear Admir-.
al j. H. Dayton will command the
third squadron.
At present the warships in the Pa
cific are organized into Asiatic fleet
and the Pacific squadron. Their con-
solidation is in accordance with the
navy departments policy instituted by
the abolition of the South Atlantic and
European stations in the Atlantic and
the concentration of all vessels in that
ocean under one command.
In statement from the navy depart
ment it is shown that the groups of
ships in the Paicfic will remain in the
same general position and perform
much the same duties they have at
present. They will, however, proba-
bly, meet for general drills and exer-
cises anywhere on the station and an
effort will be made to repair all the
larger ships in Pacific coast navy
yards. As far as is practicable, dock
ing and minor repairs to vessels in
Asiatic waters will be made at Cavite
or Olingapo. The department does not
expect to send any of the battleships
now in the Atlantic to the Pacific.

WITHDRAW FROM UNION.
Industrial Workers of World Losing
Ground in GodfieId.

Goldfeld, New, March 19.-All
stores have reopened, but the en-
ployes will not be members of the In
dustrial Workers of the World, the
employers having given them the al
tentative Of Withdrawing from that
body or FORGETTING their positions.
Very few clerks remained loyal to the
Industrial Workers of the World. The
American Fed .ration Of Labor will
proceed to organize the clerks. The
town is orderly, there having been no
disturbances since the shooting and
killing Of John Silva last Sunday
week. The place is being carefully
patrolled and every business house is
under guard. The miners of Fairview,
Bullfrog, Manhattan and Seven
Troughs, although members of the
Western Federation of Labor, have de-
clared most emphatically against the
Industrial Workers of the World, from
which body they have withdrawn.

Disease Among Sheep.

A peculiar disease has been dis
covered among sheep by DR.. S. B. Mel
son, state veterinarian and professor
of veterinary science in the Washing
ton State college.
A microscopic examination of the
lungs and intestines of the sheep show
the presence of parasites in both or
gans. The parasite is small worm
which makes it's habitat in the bron-
chi of the sheep. causing bronchitis
and pneumonia, from which the sheep
soon die.
Experiments have shown that sue.

when the disease is first discovered
is to shut them in a tight room and

TO help POOR China
ROCKEFELLER SAID TO HAVE
GIGANTIC PLAN In VIEW.
Universities and Colleges to Be Es-
tablished in the Empire-Teach
Gospel later-Funds Are Not to Be
Used in Effort to Directly Convert
tho Masses-He Denies Story.

With view to uplift the Chinese in
their own country, ]. D. Rockefeller is
planning to donate $5O,OO0,0O0. The
fact that the oil king has decided to
give this enormous sum has been
made public by men who were con-
suited by him as to the best methad
Of distributing it SO that it will do the
most good. Rockefeller thinks that
$5O,OO0,00O will be sufficient to lead
the orientals into paths of western
civilization by endOwing in the Chinese
empire educational institutions free
from any religious organization.
The gift, which Is the largest single
sum ever donated in the interest of
philanthropic work, is the one Rookie
Teller referred to in guarded way
when he recently gave $32,000,O0O to
the cause of general education. At
that time he announced that in the
near future he would have something
to say of greater interest than the
gift to general education. Should the
purpose be realized he hopes a new
enlightened power will be added to
the worlds nations. He has given
this matter much thought in recent
years and finally decided that a sum
like that which he will give would be
needed to carry on the work of up.
lifting the Chinese. He appreciates
the noble work being done by Christ
ian missionaries and at the same
time regrets that they have been un-
able to accomplish more than they
have.
Rockefeller has learned that the
missionaries have conducted their
work principally among the lower
classes. 1t is his intention to change
conditions in this respect He is de-
sirous of having the influential ele-
ment educated first, thereby starting
at the top.
Although Rockefeller has not as yet
worked out all the details of his plans,
it is known that throughout the EN-.
pire he will establish educational in
| situations modelled after the one called
the International institute in Shang
hal.
At this institution only the better
class of Chinese are given the advan-
tage of receiving an education. 1t is
not his purpose to allow religion to
be one of the studies. He is more
anxious that the benefits of home life
i'll the more enlightened nations
should be taught.
John D. Rockefeller says there is
NO truth in the report that the oil
king would give $5O,OO0,OOO to modern
ize the Chinese. According to his Sec
rotary, Mr.. Rockefeller will leave ALL
gusta on Monday for New York.

carried lines of hose to the burning

the fire and assisted in rescuing many
persons. The crew of a boat moored
across the river manned a yawl and
rescued about 100 persons.
The men were offered all kinds of
rewards and big sums Of money for
the work they had done, but they re-
fused to accept a cent. Most of the
imperiled persons were Syrians, and
at times when the big yawl was filled
to overflowing it was with difficulty
that the rivermen prevented the fran
tic foreigners from upsetting the
craft. Had the drowned persons re-
NAMED in their houses none of them
would have met death. The buildings
occupied by the victims were not
touched by the flames, but the explo-
sion that started the fire terrorized
the people.
The majority of the persons living
in the district are Syrians, and after
the fire they refused to return to their
homes. They are being taken care of
in the city hall and county building.
