TITANIC SANK IN
GRAVEYARDOF
SHIPS
GIANT VESSEL WENT DOWN
WHERE 5,5f6 PERSONS HAVE
GONE TO DEATH SINCE 1887.

The Titanic stands thirtieth in tn.
list Of death ships OF the summer ict
field off Newfoundland. The 1853;
names on the roster of her missing
brought the tale of victims up tC
5,516. The material value of herself
and her cargo brought the property
loss by icebergs and icepans over the
Grand Banks to $15O.OOO,OOO.
The story that is summed up in
this way has been writing for Just rs
years. Many observers of deep sea
affairs believe that the story is near
its end, for there has been no loss
OF life in six years before the Titanic
went down, and in the three years
Immediately preceding there has been
but two vessels lost, excluding
coasting schooners and fishing
snacks, which must always take
chances.
Arctic exploration has barred many
of the secrets of the yearly south
ward movement Of ice from Green
land and Grantland. The hydrograph-
ic services of the United States and
England have perfected bulletin sys-
TENS that keep both nations in daily
touch with conditions over the Banks.
Wireless telegraphy has extended the
system to the sea itself, and only
deliberate adventure should bring
disaster in the future.
British Regiment Lost.
The first great disaster caused by
an iceberg occurred in 1887. The
British transport AlDeura, bearing a
regiment from the garrison at Que
bee, had made her way down the st.
Lawrence upon the resumption of
navigation out into the Gulf, when
she struck a berg that had come
down between Labrador and New
foundland The Albeura sank before
her boats could be launched and 525
lives were lost.
Three years later the steamer Dun
das, after having got further INTO the
Gulf and further to the south, struck
a berg that foundered her so quickly
enly 35 of her passengers and crew
were able to get away in boats. OF |
the 292 left on board all were lost. !.
The survivors reached shore and died
there of starvation before they could
reach succor.
On September 2S, 1856, the Collins
liner Pacific sailed from Liverpool
FOR New York with 2SS persons on
board No direct word was ever re-
'eived of her after she had cleared
,ort, but there was reason to believe
hat she fell victim to the ice over
he tail' of the Grand Panks, lati-
ude 42.30 north, longitude. so west.
Ter name, at least. has been in the I
lst of iceberg victims ever since.
Five years later, on June l, 1861, I
ne Canadian, first of the Allan lines '
transatlantic ships, left Quebec for /
liverpool. Three days afterward, t
'hen she had reached a point eight /
lilies south of Belle Isle Strait, the /
anadian struck sunken field of ice /,
'hree of her watertight compar,- V
tents were broken in at once, and t
ie ship sank in S5 minutes, but ISL a
her passengers were able to make
ape Bauld in her boats. Twenty nine Il
thers, however, vert lost. b.

he answered-'Im afraid If both Of

''Pshawl how do you spell that last

John took the paper and started to

MENT PROCEEDINGS.

IT, after an investigation of the
evidence that can be produced by
witnesses, Attorney General Craw-
ford deems 1t sufficient to sustain
certain allegations contained on an
information filed with him by julius
Silverstone, of Portland, against Max
V. Cohen, lawyer of the same city,
charging the latter with a misappro-
priatlon of funds belonging to clients,
an order will be asked to try him on
disbarment proceedings,
1t seems, as near as can be learned
that this matter was taken before
the grievance committee Of the Bar
association Of Portland, but 1t failed
to act and that the appeal is now be-
ing made to the supreme court. The
information filed with the attorney
general, 1t is understood is volumin-
GUS and the charges sensational. Co
hen has been acting as municipal
Judge under Mayor Rushlight and the
charges are directed against him in
this capacity as well as a lawyer,
Cohen is prominent in Portland
and should a formal complaint be
filed against him, It is stated It will
create quite a sensation.

SALEM'S Big

An Eastern visitor at Salem, look
ing over our commercial and indus
trial enterprises and our public insti-
tutions, said recently: with the
single exception OF the state house, by
far the largest and best public asset
you have Is Willamette University"
The statement was at once challenged
by a local man, who found, upon In
vestlgation, that the visitor was cor
rect.
There are some 425 students en-
rolled at Willamette this year. The
average attendance for the year will
be roundly 400. These 400 students
will drop at least $10O a day each on
the average throughout the year
Some Of the college authorities think
II little more. That amounts to
S275 apiece, or $4,000 for the entire
student body, There are 46 people in
the faculty These represent at leaht
40 families. II ls conservative, there
fore, to reckon a total faculty expense
OF $4,000, In addition to these there
are fully 100 families resident In Sa-
lem who are here solely on account
of Wlllametet University; that is to
say, II Willamette University had not
been here, they would not have come.
These 100 families, at an average ex-
penditure of $1,000, make another
100000, or the splendid total of a
quarter Of million dollars flowing
through the financial arteries Of sa-
lem and Marion county directly from
