WAR BREAKS OUT
OFF OREGON COAST
Mayor of North Bend Hears Jap and
German Warships in Fierce Battle
Or Hears Something, Anyway.

Marshfield, Ore, Aug. 26.-That he
had heard heavy firing at sea and
was confident that a naval battle was
on between the Four foreign war ships
reported off Coos Bay, was the declar-
alton of L. j. Simpson, mayor of North
Bend, Ore, by long distance telephone
from his summer home at Shore Acres,
four miles south of the Coos Bay bar,
this afternoon.
1t is believed that the japanese
cruiser Idzumo, the German cruisers
Leipsie and Nurnberg, which were re-
ported cruising off Port Oxford, have
met. The firing has been in progress
for several hours, Mayor Simpson
states, and the reports are frequent and
repeated.
There is some fog and it is now i'm
possible to see very far out to sea, but
G. s. Kaiser, a veteran of the Spanish
American war, who is guest of Mayor
Simpson, is positive that the explosions
are those of cannons being fired broad.
side.
Mayor Simpson, whose summer home
is on a cliff overlooking the ocean,
stated that he could not estimate the
distance at sea from which the firing
came, but that it was very distinct and
loud.
A British vessel was also reported to
have been patrollirG the sea lane off
Cape Blaneo since Monday night, and
it is possible that, should a battle be
on, it also is involved.

BOARD DISCUSSES
TUMALO PROJECT
Attorney General Would Stop Work In
order to Retain Enough Money to
Repay FORGETTING Settlers.

The proposition to close down the
work on the Tumalo irrigation project
in order to set aside fund of $50, 900
to pay refund claims to holders of old
contracts, called forth lively eontro.
yersy between Governor West and At
torney General Crawford at the meeting
Of the desert land board this morning.
Mr.. Crawford presented a communica'
tion to the board saying in part that
of the $450,O00 appropriated by the leg.
islature to complete the Tumalo pro-
iect that only $4,000 remained. 1t
would require about $4,000 to pay back
the settlers who desired to forfeit their
claims in the project These people
have been informd that the claims will
be paid December /, 1914. 1t requires
about 100000 a month to meet the pay.
roll on the work, and if the work is
continued there will be no money to
meet the claims of the holders of the
old contracts according to the conten-
ton of MIR. Crawford. He said that
many of these people would be disap-
pointed if they were not paid and that
ne did not wish to see all of the money
expended on the project if another fund
to repay the claims was not provided.
Governor West expressed the opinion
that this was an attempt to embarrass
Lauergaard, the engineer in charge of
the project. The attorney general re-
Piled that the proposition was made in
good faith and not with the intent to
throw Lauergaard out of job, and
that he sincerely hoped that the project
could be carried on if there was money
enough to do it.
The proposal of Governor West to
call Lauergaard before the board to get
the exact status of the matter before
making any moves or before stopping
the work and throwing several hundred
men out of employment, was adopted,
and Lapergaard will probably appear
late this week.
State Engineer Lewis was asked to
go over the Morson project to note the
progress if any. that had been made on
the work this year. A letter from Nor
son stated tnat the funds he had count
ed upon for the completion Of the work
had been held up by the war and the
unsettled conditions of the country.
Merson said in his ietter to the board
that he had taken the matter Of grant
ing patents to the settlers already on
the project up with the secretary Of
the interior. The board took no final
action in the matter and will leave it
to the secretary Of the interior to settle.

How Taut the Lines Are Drawing
War Is Possible at Any Moment.

Rome, Aug. 26--Tf the massing of
troops along the Austro- Italian frontier
signified anything, the threat of war
between the two countries grew graver
today.
1t was the eonccnsus of opinion, how
ever, that hostilities would be begun, if
at all, by Austria. There was strong
anti-Austrian feeling throughout Italy
but there was also strong anti-war
feeling, and for Italy to take the in
itiative against its neighbor, most peo.
pie believed, would be to precipitate a
crisis at home.
Latest accounts from Nish placed the
