lsteaming slowly along the coast,
sighted it soon after daylight, four
teen miles east-northeast from Barne-
gat, in 80 degrees, 81 minutes and 80
seconds north latitude and 73 degrees
and so minutes west longitude.
Il was a bad morning for catching
Ia derelict. A heavy sea tossed the
Mohawk about as If it had beensa ca
noe, and the loading of thirty-pound
mine of gun cotton on the slippery
deck seemed like a perilous undertak-
ing, to say nothing OF tumbling the
wine into surf boat going out into
such a sea to lower ii upon the dere-
lict.
But the sturdy sailors of the No
hawk performed their hazardous task,
loaded and set off four thirty-pound
mines. with apparently no more con-
cern than landsmen would have exhib-
tied in batting a hook for black bass.
Five pounds of the explosive would
have torn the Mohawk to shreds and
sent it to the bottom in FIVE seconds.
There were thirty pounds in each
mine and half a ton of the stuff
slowed in various parts of the snip.
One false move, one careless touch
of clumsy finger while the detonator
was being adjusted would have set of
the whole volcano. One felt that the
sailors did not know or did not care
for their lives. fos they laughed and
joked as their bare feet sprawled
about on the swaying deck. and they
sang as the small boat lifted and
plunged toward the derelict.
Two Shiny fragments of spars were
all that could be seen of the wreck
when the Mohawk came upon it.
These projected about six feet above
the surface and were three hundred
feet apart A landsman would scarce
ly have made note of them. The ex-
perienced derelict fisher knew there
was a huge bulk somewhere below the
surface, probably with a valuable
cargo, maybe with a score~of human
skeletons. Later when the soundings
were made and the first explosion had
brought up fragments of a third spar
these experts said there were two
ships down on the bottom.

LEVI ANKENY

Poor But Honest Young Law

crat in the Oregon Primaries
to Be Held Tuesday.

SEATTLE. Wash, Sept. 4.-One of
the most interesting and exciting DO
litical campaigns in the histor of
the state of Washington will virtually
come to an end next Tuseday with the
general primary. AS Washington is
republican by & large majority the
nomination of the republican candi-
dates for Office is regarded as equiva-
lent to election.
The direct primary next week will
be the first ever held in this state. 1t
will include every ofiice-state, coun-
ty, judicial and ngressional-every.
thing from United States senator and
governor down to the county commits
sioners and constables of the justice
courts. Practically all of the candi.
dates for the legislature have signed
a pledge to vote for the men receiving
the highest number of votes for Unit.
ed States senator. Advocates of the
direct primary are much pleased with
these pledges. 1t was predicted by the
old machine politicians, and many who
opposed the law, that scores of candi-
dates would refuse to give the pledge,
on the ground that the lesson of Ore
gon would show the people it was
wrong. However, this belief has not
been held by the candidates, and as
there is no possible chance OF the Ore
gon situation being repeated in this
state, the successor TO Senator levi
Ankeny will be named by the legisla-
ture in obedience to the will of the
. people as expressed by their votes
next Tuesday.
There are three republican aspi-
rants for the senatorship-the pres
ent incumbent, Levi Ankeny, Con-
gressman Wesley l.. Jones of North
Yakima and Judge William H. Smell
of Tacoma Ankeny is wealthy
banker and owner of farm lands liv-
ing at Walla Walla. Congressman
Jones is lawyer and a comparatively
ly poor man, having little beyond his
course, have to censor entries and
salary. Ankeny and Jones are regard
ed as the two leading candidates. with
many astute politicians predicting the
overthrow on Ankeny and the election
of Jones. The candidacy OF Judge
Smell was an eleventh hour entry in
the race and though it has complicat-
ed the situation, IL is not expected to
AFFECT the result materially.
George F. Cotterill and NJ. NJ. God
man. both of Seattle, are the candi-
dates of the democratic party for the
senatorship.
The republican race for the gov
ernorship is the most interesting con
test to be decided at the primary
There are eight republican candidates
the present governor, A. E. Mead,
former Governor Henry Mcbride, At

G. Cosgrove, a popular member of the

Contrary to general supposition,
Sparks was not owner of the large
number of houses he rented. All the
real estate he usually spoke of as his
own was bought with his first wife's
money, and upon her death she left a
Will, giving him a life interest in all
her property and providing that upon
her death it should go to the children
of Mrs. Deity. The dead man paid
taxes upon q number of houses and
they were even assessed in his name,
though he did not possess title 10
them.
1t was learned today that after his
second wife left him he endeayored
to obtain employment at several dry
goods stores. He explained that ne
was tired of idling, but it is now
thought he sought something TO dis
I tract bis mind from his troubles. At
one place in particular he made a
splendid talk to the manager and
would have obtained position had it
not been for his great age and patri-
archal appearance. He said that he
had at one time owned a dry goods
and millinery store and that ne was
an excellent salesman, always cour-
! tteous and ready to oblige.
Il know more about this business
than many of your young clerks" he
said. "O5. yes ! know the difference
between silk and sheeting."
He was told that there was no

Governor Mead's administration has
been free from scandal and is general
~ regarded as satisfactory. His most
formidable opponent is former Cover
nor Mcbride. who Is ysll liked by the
business interests OF the state. These
two are regarded as the leaders in the
race On the democratic list of candi-
dates for the governorship are John
Pattison OF Colfax, A. ]. Splawn Of
North Yakima, Patrick S. Byrne Of
Spokane. William Blachman of Seat
tie. and Jimmie Durlxin a saloon
keeper of Spokane and picturesque
figure in the politics of that city.
For secretary of state. treasurer, at
torney general and several minor
state Offices the democrats have
failed to make nominations. On the
republican side there are two CT more
candidates for nearly every place on
the ticket.
The congressional situation is also
Interesting. This is the first year the
state has been divided into districts.
w. Z. Humphrey in the Seattle dis
trict is candidate for the nomination
and will go back, as his record is gem
orally satisfactory. Francis w. Cush-
man in the Tacoma district also is as
sured of denomination and reelection.
The ehird district is the real battle
ground. There are seven republican
candidates in this district, four from
Spokane alone. In each of the three
districts the democrats have united
upon a single candidate.
Outside of local option there is
scarcely an issue in the campaign. un-
less it be an amendment to the rail-
road commission law, giving greater
power to that body The declarations
of the republican and democratic state
conventions on the liquor question are
going to arouse much interest, but the
real fight viii come in the legislature

The Trusts and Hiqh Prices.

that those trusts which, under tarif
protection, can advance the prices OF
the ne~cessaries of life as they see fit
are acting in good faith with the con
sumers of this country.
The trusts obtained their power for
consolidating competing concern with
the implied understanding that they
could thereby give the people more
reasonable prices. In the days OF
competition, after a panic, the cost
of living was reduced because com
petitors made prices lower-there
were no "gentlemen's agreements
Now, with trusts welding an almost
tyrannical power, the people find
prices soaring instead Of being low

ceive the fancy prices which the un,
fortunate consumers must pay. The

New Chart Corrects Errors.

The great practical utility Of the
magnetic survey made in the Pacific
ocean by the yacht Galilee since 1905
is shown by a new magnetic chart,
from which it appears that the charts
previously used by navigators in the
pacific ocean were erroneous along
some much-traversed routes to the ex-
tent of from three to five degrees,
