damaged in collision with the
United States monitor Amphitrite
tonight The monitor was on guard

Manchuria was passing quarantine
in heavy fog. With two holes in
her port side amidships and down
by the stern it was feared it would
be necessary to beach the steamer,
but she was able to return to her
dock under her own power.
Steaming slowly thru the narrows
because of the fog, the Manchuria
bumped into the little monitor. The
larger vessels stern rested squarely
on the monitors bow. a patrol boat
and a tug dragged the monitor loose
little damaged, The Manchuria was
not so fortunate. She was shipping
water rapidly and had bad list
1t was decided, however, that she
would be able to reach her dock.
The Manchuria, of 1883 tons, is
owned by the International Mercan-
tile Marine.

TOXIC, Saturday, June 9.-(De-

note to China expressing regret over
the dssensions in that country and a
sincere desire that Tranquility and po-
litical coordination be forthwith es-
tablished caused surprise as ignoring
Japan's special position In China.
The feeling as expressed In official
circles is that the situation would have
been better treated by first exchang-
ing views with the entente, and espe-
cially Japan. which is described as
rigidly adhering to a policy of nom
interference in Chinese domestic af-
fairs
The newspapers call the action OF
the United States glaring interference
and warn the government that 1t is
probably an epoch-making precursor
of further activities.
Officials here expressed the opinion
that the Chinese situation will be set
tied by a compromise.

AGAINST TANK CAR SCHEME
Ask That Railways BE Compelled 10
Furnish Necessary
Equipment.
From The World 5 Bureau,
704 Metropolitan Bank Building.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Okla-
homa desires legislation that would
compel railroads to furnish tank cars
to the shippers of oil, as explained
to members Of the delegation in con-
gress by Col. Jack Love, chairman OF
the corporation commission. AS 1t is,
he says, the shippers of oil are being
required to furnish their own equip
ment, at the same time the railroads
place equipment at the disposal Of
every other class of shippers.
II was related before the Interstate
commerce commission in the Il per
cent rate hearing that the Frisco rail-
road had disposed of its tank cars to
a private concern, thus placing the
so-oalled Independent shippers at
heavy expense in obtaining equip
ment This was presented as one of
the grounds by the oil producers
against an advance in freight rates
at the hearing which closed yester-
day.

NO CHEAPER GAS
FOR TULSA SOON
Corporation Commissioners
Leave Rate Where 1t Has
Been Placed.
FIRMS MAY CONSOLIDATE
Unless Tulsans Have Domes-
tic Rate Raised All Will
Stay Put.

The Oklahoma state corporation
commission is unwilling to revoke the
order made some weeks ago. increas-
ing the gas rate in Tulsa with nothing
more than the records introduced in
the last hearing before them, unless
by agreement, the interests of this city
gree to a decrease In the manufac-
turing rate at the expense of an in
crease in the domestic rate.
This position OF the commission was
made clear by Commissioners Camp
bell Russell and w y. llumphrics to
Mayor John II. Simmons and Secre-
tary Clarence Douglas of the Cham
Der of Commerce In n hearing held
yesterday afternoon In oklahoma city
President Il. NJ McFarlin of the
Chamber of Commerce found IL i'm
possible to attend the conference,
which had been arranged for in ad-
vance. and Secretary Douglas repre-
sented the chamber, while Mayor Sim
mons represented the city at the hear
ing.
Less Than Capital.
To these Tulsans IL was explained
by the two commissioners that at the
u
mestic rate of 20 per cent less per
thousand feet than Is charged in okla
homa city, Shawnee or Guthrie. The
manufacturing rate in Tulsa, however,
| Is slightly higher, which, II Is declared
| by the records in the case, permits the
| Usage and Oklahoma n return of ap-
proXimately per cent on the invest
ments in these cities
Commissioner Russell expressed n
willingness to agree to a reduction of
the manufacturing rate Of gas in Tulsa
providing the representatives of this
city would agree to an increase OF the
domestic rate, which would continue
to give the gas company the return
OF 4 per cent. To this plan Mayor
Simmons and Secretary Douglas pro-
tested, declaring that it was the do
nestle consumers who must be con-
sidered first In the matter.
Merger Proposed.
II then was suggested by n member
Of the commission that within the
course Of "A very few months "A CON
solidation of the gas companies OPP
Grating in this part of the state. and
especially in Tulsa, would be effected,
which would result in the filing of a

was explained. the domestic rate in

merce directors tomorrow. Mayor

port TO the city commissioners at the
