CRUISER RUN DOWN,
Liner St Paul Smashes into Warship
During Snowstorm.

Southampton, April 27.-The Ameri
can line steamer St. Paul, which left
Southampton on her regular voyage
bound for New York, this afternoon, in
dense snow storm rammed and de-
strOyed the British second-class cruiser
Gladiator off the Isle of Wight.
The first report stated that from go
to 80 Of the Gladiator s crew had been
drowned, but later intelligence reduces
the number of casualties. The exact
extent of the disaster, however, cannot
be accurately known until tomorrow.
No one on the st. Paul was killed or
injured, but the bodies of Steward Wild
gerry, Writer Cowdry and a Maltese
steward, Debras, all attached to the
cruiser, have been brought ashore; one
officer, Lieutenant William G. Praves,
who attempted to swim to land, is miss
ing, and eight injured have been taken
to the military hospital at Golden Hill
for treatment. 1t is believed only few
others are unaccounted for.
The Gladiator was beached and her
crew took to the boats She is one of
the class of vessels designed to serve as
rams. She is 800 feet long, has a speed
of 20 knots and carries complement of
$50 men.

NEWS ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST
FROM THE STATE OF OREGON
MUST SPRAY ORCHARDS.
Fruit Commissioner Reid Will Make
+ Owners Obey Law

! Oregon City. II. Reid, of Mil
waukie, fruit commissioner for" the
First Oregon District, has announced
his intention Of cleaning UP the pest
afflicted orchards of Clackamas
county, along the tracks of the Ore
gon Water Power & Railway Com
,pany and the Southern Pacific Com
pany, and Will hold d conference with
County Fruit Inspector A. J. Lewis
and District Attorney Gilbert l..
Hedges, for the purpose of carefully
Haylng plans to. force the" owners of
diseased orchards to either spray
their trees or cut them down.
&, Marion and Yamhill = counties
have obeyed the law" said Mr.. Reid,
and 1t is up to- Clackamas to do the
same It is a strong and forceful
argument that hundreds and perhaps
thousands of homeseekers come from
the east through California, and,
after travelling through the southern
portion OF Oregon and then through
Lane, Linn and Marion counties,
come to Clackamas and here are con-
fronted by the spectacle of scale-in-
tested trees, hundred of acres Of
them, absolutely of no value to the
owners or to any one else"

IA GRANDE RAISES So, 800.
Sum Subscribed in a Few Minutes to
Boom the Town..

La Grande-This city went or
record tonight as heartily in favor
of assuming all the germs of boost
possible when it subscribed in a few
minutes the sum of $500, and in ad-
,dition secured a membership sub
scription of 1926 to reorganized
commercial club at 81 each.
Not satisfied with raising that
amount for boosting, the meeting
passed a resolution to canvass the
city so thoroughly tomorrow morn
ing that. the figures will be brought
up to $4,000 for the year, and COM
mttee was appointed 10 do this.
This sudden burst, of enthusiasm,
backed up by financial support, was
primed and shot off through the ef-
forts Of Tom Richardson, manager of
the Portland Commercial Club, who
this afternoon raised $500 at Elgin
for the same purpose. He goes TO
Union and Cove tomorrow.

$1,000 to the Pan.

Seattle, April esp. T. Rowe, bishop
of the Episcopal church for the territory
of Alaska, who arrived in the city today
from the north on the Yucatan, brings
the first detailed authentic information
regarding the big gold strike on Nolan
Creek, at the head of the Koyukuk
river. Bishop Rowe was in the Nolan
Creek camp when the strike was made
and washed out $500 pans on the Olson
claim with his own hands and saw pans
washed out that ran as high as $500.
Nolan Creek is only about 200 miles
from the Arctic ocean and there were
only about l25 men in the camp when
Bishop Rowe left for the outside.
The strike was made at a depth of
about $50 feet and about $4,000 has been
washed by crude operations. and it is
estimated the cleanup at the end of
this summer will reach $l,000,000.

SECURES FORTUNE.
Senator Gets Half Million tor Settling
Big Estate.

Seattle, Wash, April 2S.-United
States Senator Samuel Piles, of this
city, yesterday was given possession of
a one-half interest of the John Sullivan
estate, valued approximately at 81 ,000,-
600. This ends litigation that has ex-
tended over a period Of eight years and
which has been prolific in having the
history of the Sullivan family in Ireland
well aired in the various courts of this
state.
Eight years ago John Sullivan, a
prominent citizen of Seattle owner of
one of the biggest business blocks in the
city, and suburban and rural properties,
died leaving no will. Claimants sprang
from everywhere, although Sullivan had
no relatives so far as known in this
country.
Senator Piles, who was friend of
Sullivan. went to Ireland to investigate.
Graves were examined, church records
scanned, and finally the true relatives
of Sullivan were located. They agreed
to give Senator Piles one-half of the
estate to defend it against the many
litigants who were endeavoring to Sc
cure a slice Of the valuable property.
Edward Corcoran and Johanna CALI
CHAN. since deceased of Dublin, Ireland,
were declared the rightful heirs Sen
ator Piles law firm will also be reward
ed as well as the senator for bringing
this fight, the most remarkable of its
kind in this state, to an end.

Oregon Will Still Raise HOPS.

Salem---The very low prices that
have ruled in the hop market 'for-the
last few years have not caused many
Oregon hop growers to go out Of bus
iness. Perhaps $500 or 5000 acres
have been plowed up in the entire
state, but enough yards are left, un-
der favorable conditions, to produce
a crop as large, if not larger, than
that of 1907. Cultivation is being
neglected or postponed in some sec
tions, but in others the growers are
taking the best care of their yards.
The proportion of the matured crop
that will be picked will depend on
how money matters can be arranged
in the summer. A good many of the
small growers are going ahead with
their work in the hope that some
thing will happen before picking
time to raise the market to a higher
level, when they will be able to bor-
row money on their crops. The pros
pect is a gloomy one, however, and it
looks now as if the big crop Oregon
is growing will only make the mar
ket worse.

WANT TO SEE FLEET.
Newport Will Try to Have Ships Stop

Albany-A movement is under
way here for an attempt to have the
battleship fleet stop for short time
off Yaquina bay on it's northward
trip. The idea was suggested at
Newport and Albany is taking it up
1t is planned to have the commercial
clubs of Albany and other valley
cities attempt to secure this arrange
ment through the Oregon delegation
in congress. If arrangements are
made as planned the fleet will come
as close to the shore as possible off
Yaquina bay and stop for possibly
an hour. In the event that arrange
ments are made, big excursions will
be run from Albany and Corvallis to
Newport and boats will take crowds
out to view the fleet.

GReA EST nv HIS ORY.
Great Conference to Be Held at White
Hous- IN June

Washington, April 28.-When Presi-
ent Roosevelt calls to order the opening
session of the great White House con
ference on May 13, there will be gath
cred in the East Room of the, EXecu-
tive Mansion the most notable assem-
blage Of men in the public eye that has
States.
The governors Of all the states have
signifiod thoir intention of being pres
ont at this conference, and each will
bring with him three men, carefully
chosen from among the learned of his
state, to act as advisers in the conven-
ton. Besides the governors and their
advisers, representatives of all the i'm
portant national organizations, the wei
fare of which depends in greater or
less degree upon natural resources, will
be in attendance, and further the pres
ident has invited five special guests,
chosen for their superlative fitness, to
act as "advisers at large to the con-
ference.
Grover Cleveland, the only living ex-
President of the United States, will,
health permitting, be one of these ad-
visers. The others will be William j.
Bryan, who hopes to be president; An
drew Carnegie, industrial king; James
j. Hill, railroad monarch, and John Nit
chell, leader of labor. Every candidate
for the presidential nomination this year
with the exception Of Secretary Taft,
whose duties in Panama will prevent at
tendance, will be there.
Looking at the meeting purely from
its historical side, it properly may be
said that never before in the country 9
history have the governors of all the
states assembled in convention for any
purpose whatsoever. Considered simply
as an epoch marking event the confer
ence will easily take rank with any as
sembly of public men ever held in the
civilized world, for at this meeting the
entire government of the United States,
in the persons of that government g
heads, will be assembled at one time. If
for no other reason, the public will be
in the conference because of

HALF THOUSAND KILLED.
Southern Storm Much Worse Than
FIRST Re % orted.

New Orleans, April 27.-Probabh
500 lives lost, 100 or more persons
fatally injured and many times this
number fatally hurt, together with a
property loss running up in the mil
limos, is the record so far of tornado
that originated in the west two days
ago, sweeping Texas, Arkansas Louis.
ana, Tennessee and Georgia. 1t has left
path of death, desolation and want
in its wake seriously interrupted all
communication between cities in the
south, and brought about chaotic con-
ditions. in many smaHer towns. -.
Mississippi already a sufferer from
more than one tornado this year, has
again borne the brunt of the winds and
rains, Estimates of the number of
those who lost their lives in that state
place the death list between $50 and
l75, with thousand or, more injured.
In Texas, Louisiana, Alabama and
Georgia the death lists are also large,
with serious loss of life in Arkansas
and Tennessee. Authentic information
is in many instances lacking, owing to
the crippled facilities for communica-
tion and the lack of time to form any
thing like an accurate estimate of the
damage done in many sections.
In half dozen communities martial
law has been declared, so terrible was
the destruction and SO helpless were
the stricken people left by the disaster.
Serious disorders have occurred in some
places, including Amite, La. Looting
and other crimes have been reported
but those instances have on the whole
been rare.
Several places have issued appeals for
aid and in Mississippi Governor Noel
has been asked to provide tents for the
homeless.
The tornado has lasted in all period
Of nearly two days. 1t was Thursday
night that damage by tornadoes travel
ing was first reported from points in
Texas. This was followed during the
next "a hours by similar reports from
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and
Tennessee. Last night Alabama came
within the flight of the storm and to-
day reports of serious damage by the
wind in Georgia have been recorded.
Utter misery of every sort was found
today at Purvis, Miss, by relief parties
Despite the fact that of the $500 inhab |
tants which this little town boasted yes
terday morning, there were only 900 to-
day, still there were not sufficient ac-
commodatiOns in the wrecked village for !
even the wounded. Negro mammes and |
little black children lay wounded and |
helpless under the broiling Southern sun.
Some had broken bones, some were part
ly crushed and others had been wound |
ed by sticks and splinters. These unfor |
unates were lucky if they had blanket
or wrecked couch to rest upon,
There was not enough shelter in the |
town to protect them from the sun and !
many of the walls which remained |
standing had no roofs, and by a queer
freak of the tornado many of the trees
which had not been uprooted had been
snatched off a few feet above the
ground. The grove of pines was mutt
lated in such a manner that it appeared |
as if a gigantic scythe had swept !
through the grove about 25 feet above
the ground
