that five persons were drowned and
rs injured at Stones Landing last

added to by the frantic relatives who
seeing their loved ones in the water
jumped from the dock or boat into the

SCOUTS IDEA
JAPANESE WAR
Rear Admiral COghlan, De.
clares Such Contingency
Is Remote

NEW YORK, June 24.-"I am con-
vinced that we will never fight japan
within my lifetime, and 1 ought to
round out at least 20 years more.''
Rear Admiral Joseph B. Coughlan,
recently retired from the United States
navy made this statement.
Il am not sure that we will ever
fight Japan, Admiral Coghlan con-
tinued, Japan has troubles enough of
Its own in developing Manchuria and
stack up against the United STATES.
Il do not really believe that Japan
will ever make the attempt TO get
possession of the Philippines or Haw-
her base of supplies so close at nand,
imagine that the Japanese could Sc
cure possession of both the Philip
pines and Hawaii, but her conquest
would end right there.
Japan could never gain foothold
on the North American continent.
"One thing is certain, however, our
naval force in the Pacific is woefully
inadequate for any such possibility as
a war with Japan.
I'VE need a big navy not only as the
surest guarantee of peace, nut as pSo-
lection to our dependencies and the
retention of our self-respect am ,ng tho
nations"

WHERE WILL

Girl Must Shield Either Her
Father or Murdered
Lover

RICHMOND, Va, June 24.-A spe-
ciaI term of court convened today at
Houston, Halifax county, for the trial
of Judge w. G. Loving, charged with
the murder of Theodore Estes. 1t is
reported that there is to be an effort
made to have the case go over for
some time, making the trial for the
first part of October. The court has
made all preparations for the trial,
however, and 1t is believed that Judge
Barksdale will order it to proceed
without further delay, unless good rea-
sons are given for a postponement
The line of defense is something of
a mystery, and not the slightest indi-
cation has been given as to what 1t
VIII be. Since the killing public senti-
ment in regard to the case has UNDER
gone a considerable change. Many
persons are now of the belief that the
young victim was guilty of no moral
offense. Nevertheless, the so-called
unwritten law will in all probability
be made the basis for the defense. 1t
is expected that Judge Loving will
plead that at the time of the shooting
he was honest in his conviction that
his daughter had suffered at the hands
of Estes.
1t will be necessary for Miss Low
ing to take the stand in such -de-
fense, and the community is on the
qui vive to learn how far she will &c
in her testimony to shield her father
She is depended upon to at least dem
onstrate that she gave him cause t.
believe the worst, however unwittingl!
1t was given.
1 While visiting a friend in the coun
try Miss Loving went buggy ridini
with Estes. According to the story nov
generally believed. she became faint
and her escort gave her a drink G
liquor to revive her. Being unused t
liquor, it made her i'll. Hearing Of he
the home of her friend, where she wa
staying, and got a rather incoherer
statement from her which led him
believe that young Estes bad bee
I guilty of moral crime. He went {

COLUMBIA BAR
IMPROVEMENTS
Government Official Report
Satisfactory Progress
on the Work

PORTLAND, June 24.-Such a great
lumbia river bay by the United States
engineers who made the recent survey
of that stretch of water that Colonel
s. w. Roessler ordered duplicate
soundings made to verify the results
indicated. Blue prints will then be
compiled for distribution, showing the
exact stage of the bar.
Last year the water was, in places,
less than "a feet at low tides. Until
his report is made by regular means,
Colonel Roessler will not disclose the
exact depth of water found this year.
He states, however, that the best chan
mel is to the south of that followed
now, and will be used by deep-sea
ships after it has been properly buoy
ed. OF late vessels have taken that
course in preference to the old pas
sage.
'I will say this much" said Colonel
Roessler, who has just returned from
the mouth of the Columbia, that the
dredge Chinook could now be operated
to advantage on the bar. In former
seasons there was not enough water
to permit of her being operated to ad-
vantage. greatly regret that at the
last session of congress an appropria-
ton was not set aside for replacing her
boilers. Had this been done, she could
make a fine showing there now on ac-
count of the increased depth OF
water"
The estimated cost of repairing the
boilers of the dredge is $4,000. Al
present the craft cannot be used. III
less than a year the new government
dredge to replace the w. S. Ladd will
be completed. In fine weather, Colone
Roessler says, she can be-used on tnf
har to advantage. The Newport News
shipbuilding company's bid OF s2S4''
600 to build her has been recommend
cd and her total cost at the bar VII
ba so75 900. An appropriation Of $780,
600 was made.
Colonel Roessler inspected tn'
breaxwater at the mouth Of the Co
lunnbia Yesterday and says good prog
ress is being made. The piling washe'
awav bv the winter storms is oeinl
renewed. Rock deliveries have starte'
again, after the delay caused oy TN

LOVING CASE
COMES TO TRIAL
Notable Virginia Murder
Caused By Invoking
"Unwritten Law

HOUSTON, Va, June 24.-The trial
of Judge w. v. Loving of Nelson coun-
ty for the murder Of Theodore Estes,
son of Sheriff Estes began in the cir
cult court here today. Judge Loving,
armed with a double -barreled shot
gun, instantly killed Estes while he
was unloading car of fertilizer In
Oak Ridge, April %.
The shooting is g sequel to buggy
ride taken the evening prior to the
ing, the 19-year-old daughter of Judge
Loving. The girl, when brought home,
it developed, had been drinking, and 1t
is alleged her escort had maltreated
her. Acting under the impression that
his daughter had been drugged and
assaulted, Judge Loving killed Estes.
Judge Loving said:
Il shot to kill. Every drop of my
blood called for vengeance. I would
have gone a hundred miles to- kill
him."
Backed by the millions of Thomas F.
Ryan, of whose Virginia estate he has
been overseer for years, and with a
powerful political influence, every
means will be availed to acquit the
Judge. The plea will be the "unwrit-
ten law"
Relatives of young Estes, whose
family connections extend to the gov
ernor of the state, will exert every ef-
fort to clear the memory Of the dead
man from the stain of wrongdoing.

SCOW DWELLER
Due TO MOVE.

PORTLAND, June 24.--Scow dwell
ers in North Portland have until July
to shift their houseboats to more
hospitable shores. The Q. r. & n.
Co. has notified them TO decamp under
penalty Of being prosecuted for tres-
passing.
The railroad company recently

tate. and Martin winch, the executor.

WEYERHAEUSERS
VISIT LEWISTON
Their Meeting Now With President Elliot
Is Significant of Active
Development

Frederick Weyerhaeuser, J. A. Hum
brid and party reachced Lewiston this
morning in their private car attached
to the regular owl train. The party
spent the forenoon in driving over the
city and Charleston and departed on
the Clearwater train this afternoon for
Orofino, where they win spend tomor-
row in looking over their millsite at
the junction Of Orofino and whiskey
creeks.
The party left st. Paul June IL ana
have just returned from the coast,
where they attended the annual meet
ing of the weyerhaeuser Timber COM
pany at Tacoma. From Orofino they
will go TO Potlatch, where they wilH
meet President Elliott and party of the
Northern Pacific and inspect the mills
installed there by the Weyerhaeuser
interests.
I'VE are here on business and have
nothing to say for publication" said
Mr.. Frederick Weyerhaeuser. Jr., when
up by the Commercial club some time
ago for the purpose of negotiating
with the Weyerhaeusek people with q
view of securing the location Of a mill
at Lewiston.
I'VE just dropped. down into Gods
country and have been partaking OF
the finest cherries and other fruits we
have ever seen. The drive through
the city and to Charleston has been q
revelation to many members of the
party"
Mr.. Weyerhaeuser was asked rela-
tive to the question of the validity or
title TO the lands included in the
Northern Pacific land grant, but knew
nothing of the situation.
1t has been rumored in Midle West
timber circles that question of the
validity of the Northern Pacific land
grants has arisen on account OF the
transfer of interests from the North
ern Pacific Railroad company to the
Northern Pacific Railway company,
but that the question is not deemed
serious one, only needing decision
of the supreme court or an act or
congress to clear the title.
| 1t has also been stated that no defi-
mite move would be made In the Clear
water country by the Weyerhaeuser
people until this question had been
settled 1t is understood, however,
that a movement has already been
started to bring this action about ana
that operations should not be delayed
for longer than few months.
Members of the party expressed
themselves as confident Of the build
ing of the Spokane Inland road into
Lewiston as soon as the construction
work can be carried this far. This In
formation is particularly Significant
on account of the party's travelling II
a Great Northern car and members ol
, the party being directors Of the Grea
I Northern railway. Especially is Thu
, true on account of the accepted theor!
r that the Inland road is one of the pro
, motions of j. ]. Hill, president Of tn
5 Great Northern.
