The British Ship Lord Shaftesbury
Encountered Tidal Wave.

encountered 1lual wave.
VICTORIA, B. c., June l9.-The
British ship Lord Shaftesbury which
arrived yesterday morning from Port
Talbot via Iquique reported that when
800 miles west OF Cape Horn a tidal
wave was encountered which swept
the decks, taking all her boats and
houses, starting the hull and partial
ly wrecking the ship. Hundreds of
tons of water broke over the ships
which was thrown over on her beam
ends and her cargo shifted, one man
being washed overheard and drowned.
This man, John Sylvester, a seaman,
was the only one on deck. Had others
been there they could not have
escaped. On her beam the crew re-
shifted her coal cargo for FIVE days
with only bread and cold water as
food. Eighteen days later they work.
ed the vessel into Montevideo where
she was repaired. While near Falk-
land Island the ship got into a big
field Of icebergs and almost collided
with one passing between two during
a fog so close that her yards touched
one. When nearing Victoria, J, Man
ton, a seaman, fell 30 feet into the
hold and was brought ashore suffer-
ing from internal injuries and sprains
to wrist and leg.

WASHINGTON, June io.-In the

manufacturers association against the
Union Pacific and other railroads, the

and others against the Northern Pa

Washington Lumber Manufacturers
Associations against the Northern Pa
cihc, involving a general advance in
the lumber rates, in many cases, 20 10
Is per cent, from the North Pacific
Coast territory to points east thereof
and which became effective on No
vember last, the commission makes a
geographic decision in its action. On
the ground Of unreasonableness it or
ders for the restoration of the prev
ious rates west OF the line drawn from
Pembina, N, d., through Grand Forks,
Council Bluffs. Kansas City, Sioux
City to Port Arthur, Texas, and along
the Kansas City Southern Railway
and including all points east of that
line, (Which will now take the same
rates as any point between, and in
cluding Sioux City and Kansas.
Part of the increase to the more
distant markets lying east of the
Missouri river were permitted to
stand The differentiai rates from the
Spokane rate group points of Mon
tana and Oregon group points, and
Hood River, Ellensburg and Leaven-
worth Districts, which lie east of the
Cascade Mountains, embracing parts
Of Washington, Oregon and all OF
Idaho to the eastern territory, are es-
tablished under the decision in the
case of the Potlach Lumber Company
and others against the Northern Pa
ci6c and other roads.
The rates from the Spokane dis
tricts are ordered lower than the Pa
cihc Coast.
In the case of the Western Lumber
Manufacturers Association against
the Southern Pacific, the commits
sion decides that the advance of $s
per ton from all the mills in William
ette Valley, not including Portland Isl
unjust and unreasonable; that from
both the east and west banks, south
of the Corvallis rate should not ex-
ceed $3.40 per ton, and upon the west
bank north OF Corvallis $365 per
ton, Because of the water rate the
Portland rate is not reduced. In case
OF the Pacific Coast Manufacturing
Company Association against the
Northern Pacific and other roads, the
commission declines to establish an
other through route from the Wash
ington to Colorado common points and
the eastern destinations, 1t requires
however, that the Northern Pacific
Railway, the Northern Pacific Ter
minal Company of Oregon, the Ore
gon Railroad & Navigation Company,

Pacific establish through rates for

LEWISTON, Idaho, June lo.-The
controversy involved in the fight
against the appointment Of Attorney
c. H. Lingenfelter, Of Lewiston, to
the Office OF United States Attorney
for Idaho not only involves Mr.. Lin
genfelter, but also United States
Senator w E. Borah's power in Idaho
politics, and plan by which it is
hoped to successfully launch the can
didacy OF Barney O'Neill, Of Wallace,
as successor to Senator w. B. Hey
burn.
The attack upon Mr.. Lingenfelter is
based upon the charge that he was
formerly attorney for George H. Kes-
ter and w. F. Kettenbach, convicted
of defrauding the Government Of val
liable timber lands in Idaho, and now
who have cases before the Circuit
Court OF Appeals for new trials The
Government is plaintiff in actions to
revoke the patents to more than TO-
600 acres of the valuable timber land
held by these defendants, which is all
legged to have been acquired through
their fraudulent practices. 1t is
charged that Mr.. Lingenfelter was re-
tanned as attorney in these cases when
the prosecutions were first commenc-
ed and that at tn etime w. E. Borah
appeared before the Federal court
as their chief counsel AT the next
meeting of the Idaho State Legisla
ture Mr.. Borah was elected to the
office OF United States Senator and
since that time he has not been
actively identified with the land fraud
cases.
The Endorsement of Mr., Borah for
Senator by the state republican con-
vention was secured through COM
promise in which the support Of
Senator Hepburn, Governor Gooding,
James H, Brady G. w, Thompson
and other party leaders was brought
to his aid upon the understanding that
formal factional differences be elimi-
mated. The election of Mr.. Borah by
the next Legislature was not opposed
and the harmony plan agreed upon at
the convention was not broken until
the recommendation of Mr.. Lingen-
felter shows Mr.. Borah to have turn
ed from the pledge to give his sup
port to friends of Senator Hepburn.
A feature of the appointments alleg-
ed to show bad faith upon Mr.. Borah's
part in the fact he succeeded in Sc
curing recess appointments, and the
by his friends here
that Barney O'Neill is slated to sue
ceed Senator Hepburn is regarded as
conclusive proof of duplicity Party
leaders throughout the state who can
only be classed as Borah supporters
have charged the Senator with bad
faith on other deals, but not until
now has an occasion arisen where
party policy has been involved and
leaders united their strength to op-
pose his plans,

This Is the ticket OF the republican

speeches for the vicc.prcsident be-

each speaker. On call OF the states,
Delaware yielded to New York and
ex-Licutcnant Timothy !, Woodruff
mounted the platform and delivered
a glowing speech, placing in nomina-

for the vice presidency, Now came a

PefSpiration streamed down his face
and with his linen melted to rags by
the sweltering heat, Speaker Cannon
presented a Enthusiastically crump-
led appearance In a ringing speech
he seconded Shetman's nomination,
From the outbursts OF enthusiasm
which greeted every mention Of
Sherman's name, it was plain that the
mind OF the convention was made up
and that all necessary was to record
its decision But for moment there
was halt in the Sherman movement
as Senator Lodge, leaving the presid-
ing officers chair, advanced to nomi-
nate Governor Guild, The Massachu-
setts senator's voice was strained by
his exertions of the past few days,
but he spoke eloquently and force

the people of Troy just what the CON-

that nothing pleases the owners better
than to take the people out and let
them see for themselves. The visi-
