A DESPERATE
TRIAL At
RESCUE
TWENTY HAVE BEEN
KILLED-ONLY ONE
RESCUED.
(By United Press)

MARSHFIELD, Ore, Jan. 13.-
Lashed to the mainmast of the foun-
dered steamer CZarina are four
men, the last but one Of the %
aboard the vessel when she left
Coos bay for San Francisco yes
terday. The men were sighted at
daylight this morning, and it is be-
lieved they are beyond the reach Of
the life savers. Whether they are
alive is a question, but 1t is be-
lieved three of them have survived
the terrible experiences of the
night.
The steam schooner Nan Smith
has arrived from San Francisco,
outside the bar, and is trying to get
close to the stranded vessel. 1t is
doubtful whether she will be able
to render assistance.
1t is believed those on the mast
are Captain Dugan, Harold Mills,
Second Mate McNichols and
PurSer Hedges. 1t is thought
Hedges has succumbed to the zero
weather. The other men are still
alive.
s1dpLdiu fOlSO1 VI tIlc NAL Oulltu,
which has gone to the rescue 0f the
imperiled men, Is known far and
wide for his bravery. Seafaring
men believe that If the men could
possibly be saved Olson will leave
nothing undone to bring their res
cue about.
Only zone rody was washed
ashore. 1t is an.~e. frtehtful condi-
ton. Entrais OF another man
which have been washed ashore
were found to be fastened to a big
bolt, which had evidently disembow-
eled the unfortunate man.
1t was learned definitely this aft
ernoon that 25 men were aboard
the steamer when she grounded on
the spit bar. OF this number only
one was rescued. He was First
Assistant Engineer Harry Kentzel.

Session Today.
300 ATTEND BANQUET

HOQUIAM, Wash, Jan. 13.-(Ex-
elusive dispatch to The Press.)-
Tho Washington State Federation
of Labor has passed resolutions In
dorsing the cause Of the striking
switchmen. The switchmen have
the unanimous support Of the state
organization. Resolutions favorind
an active effort to secure the equal
suffrage for women In this state
have also been adopted.
The reports of the officers were
completed today. The report Of
the secretary showed that SO new
affiliations have been made during
the year, there being now 214 locals
in the federation. The secretary
distributed 10000 pieces of labor
literature during the year.
The resolutions favoring the for
nation of labor party have been.
placed in the hands of the execu-
tive board. 1t is expected that this
measure will cause a heated de-
bate when 1t is reported. The res
olution presented <by Wfiiiam j.
Coates of Spokane regarding the.
e1ffiIiation Of locals with central
'thd state bodies has been ,ananI-
mously adopted.
The important resOlutions before
the convention concerning the ex-
tension of the Chinese exclusion
act to include all Asiatics; disin-
fection Of shoddy and waste mate
rial: eight hour law for miners;
employment agency evil; free
speech and the majority rule
league; trade schools; injunctions;
Determinations against union la
bor and safety of mines.
Several of the state councils are
holding meetings this week, among
them being the carpenters state
council, the Northwest District
Typographical union and plans are
being made for the organization OF
a state building trades department.
There is so much work before the
convention that the time Of the
meeting will be extended until Sat-
urday. The first meeting of the
committee on the seating of tho
electricians will be held tonight, so
that there will be no report on that
matter for some time. The labor
party resolution will be referred by !.
the executive committee to the con-
vention without recommendation,
which means that a hot fight will
take place.
The banquet last night was
complete success. Over 900 were In
attendance. 1t is likely that all
the present officers will be re-
elected, with he exception of some
changes In the vice presidents. A
new vice president from Spokane
will undoubtedly be chosen. Reports
from the A. F. of L. regarding the
electrical workers are expected
daily.

TO understand:
1. That there is nothing
personal in the controversy
between him and President
Taft.
2. That he has fought, and
will fight, for the preserva-
ton Of the peoples property,
the power sites, forests, min
erals and soils of the public
domain.
.3. That his removal is Of
no consequence, except as it
affects the safety of the peo-
ple's property.
4. That the real issue is
not between himself and Bal
linger, nor between himself
and Taft, but between the
people and the predatory in
terests. Behind Ballinger
and those who uphold Bal
linger, including Cannon,
Aldrich and the rest, are the
genheims, the coal trust AM
enemies of the public good.
These are the statements upon
which Clifford Pinchot lays the EN-
phasis in all he says and writes.
In his official and unofficial utter
ances they are the statements
about which all others group. Pin
chot has no concern with charges
of technical violations of discipline
or etiquet. He has declined to join
issue on such charges. He was
removed because he defended the
public domain.
The president will take the con-
eequences. President Taft's letter
of dismissal contains statements
contrary to the truth. For in
stance, Taft said that Pinchot had
violated the executive order

The fact of the matter is that

was writing the famous letter to
