TUG COMPANY FOUND LIABLE
Federal Ccurt Holds Il Must Paw fcl
Final Loss Of the Schooner
Solano.

TACOMA. March 9.-The failure
of the Grays Harbor Tugboat COM
pany to have a tug handy as it
agreed to do when salvers were ready
to float the stranded schooner So
lanO, will cost it $11,636, according
to a decision entered yesterday by
Federal Judge George Donwor1h in
the suit of w. H. Wood and others
against the Grays Harbor Tugboat
company.
One stormy night in February
1907, the four-mast American
schooner, SolanO, was driven on the
beach south OF the entrance to Will
lapa Harbor and on the Columbia
river side. Here she remained strand
ed until July. 1907. when w. H.
Wood organized a syndicate of ship
ping men to get her off and place her
in service. Several tugs owned by
the Grays Harbor Tugboat company
were chartered to assist in the work
and late in July, 1901, the SolanO
was all but flOated, a hawser part
ing and allowing her to fall back on
the beach.
Again the following December
preparations We're made to float the
d
and the tug Daring of the respondent
tugbCat company was depended on to
make the final attempt a success.
This was on December 8. WOrkmen
waited in vain, hoping the tug
would arrive as promised, but a storm
came up suddenly and the Solano
was pounded well nigh to pieces.
The vessel would have been easily
floated had a tug arrived.
Alleging that the failure of the
tugboat company to send its tug as
agreed caused the vessels final loss,
Wood and others brought suit as lib
Giants. The estimated value of the
Solano, which was built at Benica,
Cal, in 1901 and was of 72S tons
net burden, was $34, 1000. In his
decision, Judge Hanford finds Is per
cent of that amount to be fair,
floating value on which to base an
estimate. Using this figure, Judge
Donworth finds the SOlanO worth
$26,250. The libelants saved prop
erty worth $2,57S, making tlfe ac-
tual loss $23,672.
Finding for the libelants on the
basis of one-half the actual value,
the court orders 5000 deducted from
such one-half as being one-half the
agreed price for two days service of
the tug Daring. The total damage
found by the court is therefore SILL
636.

SEATTLE ELECTIONS
Hi, bill Pulls Thrc,ph With Scant
Maiority-His Supporters Lose
Bic Money in Bets.

SEATTLE, March 9.-The majori-
ty of Hiram C. Gill, republican can
d1date for mayor on wide ODen
town platform, will probably be less;
than 1000 over William Hickman
Moore, democrat. Gill swept the
downtown wards, but ran badly in
the residence districts.
The other republican city nomi-
nees were elected by pluralities of
1000 and IA of the 16 counci!men
are republican. The council will
hold office only one year, the city
having adopted charter amendment
providing for a council of nine to be
elected next year.
While Gill won republican SUP
porters have lost thousands of dol
lars on the election.
Thousands We're put up in a dozen
saloons that the Gill majority would
be from 5000 to 10000 and that
Gill would carry every ward in the
city.
The day of party politics in Seat
tie in at an end-if the new charter
amendment carried by wide margin
in yesterdays election can end it.
The new plan gives Seattle Sc
mi commission form of government.
In the future there will be nothing
on the ballots to show the party
with which the candidate is allied.
Names will be placed on the ballots
upon the filing of petition signed
by 25 voters. A primary will be
held two weeks before the general
election, and the two highest can
didates at the primary will have
their names on the final ticket.
The present system of ward cOun-
cilmen was abolished. Seattle will
no longer have is ward councilmen
and at large. In 1911 the election
will be held to elect 8 councilmen
at large, who will succeed the pres
ent % men. Each year 3 new coun-
cimen will be elected and 8 will re-
tire.
or the new councilmen IL are re-
publicans, l independent, l democrat

Bond issues of s4,500,000 were APP
proved. The $650.000 issue for a

STRIKE BREAKERS!

greemenf.
PHILADELPHIA,

PHILADELPHIA, March S.
Four persons were shot late tonight
by alleged strike breakers to revenge
fellow workmen who had been stoned
by strike sympathizers The wounds
inflicted are regarded as serious and
may be fatal.
The men took a car from the car
barn in the Kensington district, and
riding wildly down Franklin avenue,
fired at random into the crowds on
, the streets.
Announcement that plants repres-
enting Is per cent of the hosiery
manufactures of Philadelphia would
close until next Monday, was the
most important development in the
strike situation today.
The announcement was coupled
with an intimation that if the en-
ployes in the hosiery plants did not
return to work by that time, the
mills might remain closed until fall.
One of the manufacturers said the
hosiery association represented mills
employing 10000 hands.
While accessions to the strikers
rankes were reported today from
manufacturing plants, there were
many reports of strikers returning
to work. Union leaders denied that
there were any defectiOns.
c. o. Pratt, the carmens leader,
addressed a crowd of several hun
dred at meeting of the Allied Jew
ish Trades, urging the men to stand
fast in winning cause. He declar-
ed that if an out door demonstration
was permitted, it would assume prO-
portions that would surprise the
country.
The report from Cincinnati that
the local brewery workers might be
ordered out has apparently been dis
counted by the local brewing inter
ests.
The Philadelphia Brewers Asso-
citation issued a statement in which
confidence was expressed that the
men would stick to their jobs.

FRED. POPE SURRENDERS
Indian Murderer Gives Himself Up
to Allotting Agent Archer and
Goes to Tacoma.

After two days of negotiations.
Fred. Pope, the Quiniault' Indian
who shot and killed Adam Hawk and
Hob Williams. fellow tribesmen,
gave himself up to Allotting Agent
+. r. Archer Tuesday night, and
was taken to Tacoma yesterday by
Mr.. Archer to face murder charge
in the federal court.
Agent Archer went from Aberdeen
to the reservation last Friday on re-
ceiving word that it was believed
Pope would surrender to him. He
went up the Quiniault river, where
Pope and IA men had their rendez-
vous, and had a long interview with
the fugitive. A story printed in a
Hoquiam paper to the effect that a
reward of 81 1000 was offered for his
capture almost spoiled the negotia-
tions. But Archer convinced the
Indian that the story was false, and
Pope agreed to come ito Archer's Of
flee that night.
According to his promise, Pope ap-
peared at the office of the agent
about 1880 that evening alone, gave
up his gun to Archer, and slept in
the cabin that night unguarded and
unshackled. Early yesterday morn
ing Archer and his prisoner Travelled
to Moclips in time for the train to
Tacoma, passing through Aberdeen
at $3.50. Pope sat in a seat in front
OF Archer. and appeared to be glad
to be on his way to the Tacoma Jail.
The trial of Pope for the double
murder will, it is said, bring out the
fact that he was bounded to frenzy
by some Indians who wanted to Sc
cure his fishing rights on the Quin-
iault river, and the tongue of gOs-
siping woman, whose story of his
assault on the young daughter of Joe
Chenoise is strongly denied by Pope
and his wife.
