MARINE:
Matson Wharf Activity.

1t was scene of wonderful activity
round the Matson wharves yesterday
afternoon. Steved6res and laborers
were hustling back and forth unload
ing the most dreadful and fearsome
looking weapons of war off the Lur-
line. Along the roadway was a line
of gun carriages and army wagons that
made the place look like the chief
seat Of transportation in time of war.
The unloading of the munitions from
the steamer went on at a surprising
speed The heavy pieces Were handled
in splendid style and one old salt who
was standing by and watching the do

IRRIGATION CONGRESS
OPENS IN SPOKANE THIS MORNING
Gov. JohnF ShaOth Of Colorado the Most Likely Candidate
for the Office of President

Spokane, Aug. S.-A new constitution
in prospect, a warm fight over the Sc
lection of the next meeting place, and
the possibility that Governor. John F.
Shafroth of Colorado wilIf be a factor
in the campaign for the presidency to-
day occupied the pre-convention
thoughts of the delegates to the Ma
tiOnal Irrigation congress, which will
convene at 10 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing.
The new constitution for the congress
is the result of a friendly warfare be-
tween the executive heads and the
board of control for active manage
ment. At this time businesslike man
agement is impossible, according to sew
eral officers, because there is nothing in
the present constitution empowering
them to act with the desired latitude
between sessions. Thus it becomes
necessary for the board of control to
take such steps as are necessary to fol-
low out the measures adopted by each
congress- The new constitution will
enable the executive heads to work
throughout the year without hindrance
caused by insufficient legal powers.
San Francisco, FL Paso, Chicago, St
Louis, Pueblo and Rochester are the
more active cities in the race for the
next convention. It is said that Denver
will lend its aid to Pueblo. San Fran
cisco has perhaps the strongest deIega-
ton in the field and is advertising

No Ultimatum.

Constantincple. Aug. S.-The steps the
uarta has taken at Athens concerning
Crete have been confined exclusively to
verbal representations. No written note
has been presented and the representa-
lions have been COuChed in the friendli-
pyt language consistent with firmness.
Greece has already informed the porte
that the Greek officers in Crete had been
struck off the Greek army list since 1906
and that the whole question was in the
hands of the four protecting powers. She
said also that she expected tomorrow to

ACTION NECESSARY.

Paris, Aug. S.-Great satisfaction is
felt here that Germany is supporting
the representations of the protective
powers upon Turkey for the necessity of
a peaceful solution of the TurcO-Gre
dispute over Crete. The status quo ex-
listing at the time Of the evacuation of
Crete by the international troops alone
was promised to Turkey, and it is con-
sidered that energetic action is neces-
sary to prevent Turkey from advanc-
ing fresh pretensions.
