 How Boat Rested.
 The bow of the vessel was rest ing .on Vanderbilt Reef near the highest. point of the reef On her starboard ,or lee, side there lay a par4 Of the reef and on her port, or wihdward, side was another jutting rock. The wind carried the seas around under her stern and over the reef on the lee side. It would have been impossible to launch a lifeboat either from the bow or from the stern with safety, unless the weather had moderated.
 The log of the King and Winge and the statement of the captain are as follows:

 Statement by Gov Riggs.)
 I have interviewed the captain of the Cedar, the Inspector of the Lighthouse Service, the first and second officers and the wireless op- orator of the Cedar and the cap tain of the King and Winge. I have examined the log of the King and Winge and of the Cedar; 1 have in spectcd the logs of the Lightkeepers on Sentinel Island and Eldred Rock, and after a thorough investigation am confident that no blame for the catastrophe to the Princess So- phia can be attached to Captain Locke of that vessel or to any of the commanders of the Cedar and the gas boats which were in the vii cinity at the time of the disaster The records of the lightkeepers show that. at 3:10 a. m., when the Princess Sophia struck Vanderbilt Reef, there was a strong northwest gale blowing and a binding snow storm, obscuring every landmark.
 How the Princess Sophia got off her course is, of course, not known. She may have made an error in time or have been driven past her turning point at Eldred Rock, which would have thrown her di- rectly on the reef. Captain Locke is we'll known as a careful and con scientious master. While it per haps seems possible that during the day of the 24th it might have been possible to transfer passengers to the Peterson or to the Estebeth, it seems probable that if such transfer had been attempted, it would have been accompanied by a loss of life. At that time the barometer was rising, indicating fair weather Had the transfer taken place and had loss of fife accompanied it Captain Locke would have been blamed for all time in acting in too nasty a man ner. The master of the Cedar and the Superintendent, Captain Dib- rell on board, state that they would nave acted as Captain Locke did un- de rthe circumstances It seemed impossible that the Princess Sophia could have moved from the cradle on the reef in which she rested and until late in the afternoon of the

 He asked Captain Locke if they should attempt to take off pas sengers. Captain Locke answered that the Sophia was perfectly safe and to wait till the weather moder- ated. The Sophia was not taking water and was seemingly solidly fastened. In. fact, she seemed so immoyable that Captain Dibrell and Captain Leadbetter were discussing the possibility of using her in the future as a foundation for a light. At 8 p. m. the lights on the So- phia went out but Captain Locke said that the main steam throttle was broken and everything was per

, ters for the men in tho army were ccn- sorcd, and no details were allowed to reach us We first heard of it by tho arrival on our part of tho front of a party Of scomcn who bad been turned into soldiers as punishment for their sharo in the mutny.
 They told us that there had been a reign of terror at Wilhclmshaycu when the trouble broke out The heads of the navy came to investigate the mat ter personally. and for two days firing parties were kept busy shooting the mon condemned by the naval courts.
 Nearly every ship in the navy had some of it's own crew shot and when the shootings were over the whole of the men were reviewed by the kaiser and Prince Henry by whom they were told that it was a serious thing to mu- tiny in time of war, and that if there was any more trouble alI men con- ncctod with it would be shot.
 The men were then asked one by one by the officers whether they belonged to tho Socialist societies, and all who admitted such membership were told that they must sever their connection with these societies or he punished for it Some of the men refused ta give up tAcir rights to bo Socialists and they were tried next day
 Most of them were found guilty of some crime against discipline, and for punishment were drafted into tho army for service on the western front There was a battalion of thcm with us.
 They were put in Ac first limo trenches and had 10 bear tbo weight of the first British bom1arImont whicH marked thc new offensive
 During the five days and nights that these mon were under fire thcy were prevented from retiring by the bar rage from our own euns. which was sent right mp to thc cI2o of tho trench and even when they were being re- hcyed they had to co back to tho re- serve trenches under fire from our guns.
 The mutny has not been quolcd altogether but if is not likely to bo SO serious so long as the navy is en- gagged in it's offensive against Russia.
 The men in tho submariuo service arc giving tho most trouble. They know well that they arc gamblmG with death with tbe sure certainly or lo4inq ultimately.
 If is saying among thc mon ,oa.G cd in this dangerous work that none can hope to return from three voy ages in succession unless he is lucky enough to fall into tho hands of tho British.
 At first our admiralty tried to ftghtcn them by telling them that if the British captured them they would he shot as pirates, but when this threat ceased to have effect they were told that after the war there wouIl be am inquiry into all cases of sub- marines lost to the British and tho crew would be punished with the om- cers for failure to maintain tho nahf against the British,

SOIOmOn's Troubles
Nothing Like This

Judge Webster is up against a
rather pe%.plexing proposition. Criminal
law and letting people out on bond has
become sort of second nature to the
Judge, but when he is called on to
judge a lady's Jersey silk dress and
what It IS worth after the dyers and
cleaners have had hold Git, that is a
problem entirely out Of his line of
thought.
But he will soon be obliged to make
a decision as yesterday Mrs. A. Schil-
ling brought suit in his court against
the STANDARD Cleaners for damages
done to a Jersey silk party dress.
Mrs. Schilling CLAIMS she paid $25
for it and that after it was returned
from the cleaners, it had shrunk so
that she could not wear it.
The defense claims they are not
responsible Tor the shrunken dress as
they used the usual methods of clean
ing such goods and anyhow, the dress
wasn't worth $25 in the condition in
which It was brought to them.
1t is row up to the judge to examine
the dress and if such a thing is pcs
sible, render a decision according to
law and at the same time do justice to
the new party dress. The attorneys
for both sides will submit briefs and
then the Judge will go into retirement
while he is holding the case under
a~dvisement.

SHIPPED BOXES OF
SURGICAL DRESSINGS
Red CrOss Doing Immense
Amount Of Work, But
Needs More Workers

The surgical dressing department of
the Red Cross, with headquarters at
the postoffice building yesterday ship
Seattle to be forwarded on to France.
Each of these large shipping boxes are
Of regulation size, three feet long, two
feet wide and two feet deep.
These eleven boxes contained the
following: 800 split irrigation pads,
made Of cotton, each one inch thick,
81 inches wide and 26 inches long
covered with surgical gauze; 324 alb
sOrbent pads, ~ by "a and one inch
thick; 776 absorbent pads, each 8 by
10 inches, one inch thick, and 1000
gauze congresses, s by 4 inches, a
total of $500 pieces, each so carefully
made that headquarters at Seattle
does not examine materials made by
the surgical dressing department of
Salem. They are forwarded directly to
France without inspection.
!. This large shipment is part of the
quota fr,m Salem, as ten boxes were
shipped a week ago. The promptness
with which this shipment is made is
due to the good will with which the
women of Salem responded to the call
for workers in this department, especi-
ally during the past ten days.
During the past week, workers to
the number of 80 daily have been Civ
direction Of Mrs. Milton Meyers and
ing their time. The work is under the
her able assistants.
On Wednesday mornings, instructions
are given to two classes from the High
school and Fridays, to a class from the
Sacred Heart Academy. In this pres
ent surgical dressing work, there is
nothing difficult and it is explained
that no woman would find trouble in
doing the work, as there is nothing
technical about it.
Those who are new to the work are
given instruction by some of the as
sistants. Although there is on an aver.
age of IS workers, many more are
needed as the quota for Salem requires
a large force working daily.
Workers report at $3.50 in the morn.

The majn thing Mrs. Meyers wishes
to impress on those who would really
like to 90 some patriotic duty is that
all are most cordially welcome and that
no one will find the work difficult or
irksome. The surgical dressing room
is at the postoffice, upstairs.
