(By Associated Fress)


SAN FRANCOISCO, Aug. 11.-The
Rogday, transport of the Russian Vol
unteer fleet, which arrived in San
Francisco harbor from New York via
Manzanillo. for bunkers on January
"a, has become the central figure in
new international situation involv-
ing two extinct Russian governments,
the kerensky and Kolchak regimes,
and the United States.
The Rogday is of squat and prosaic
appearance and her history includes
service on the Great Lakes, as well
as freight carrier and transport for
the Russian government in the Rus
sian volunteer fleet. She served on
the Great Lakes as the Nevada, and
was constructed by the Manitowoc
Shipbuilding and Drydock Company
at Chicago. She was sold to Russia
in the latter part of 1919. The Rog
day is a steel screw propeller steamer
with a net tonnage of 1918 tons, or
a gross tonnage of 2212 tons. She is
electrically lighted, equipped with
wireless telegraph and has three
decks. Duluth, Mimi, was the home
port of Rogday while under Ameri-
can registry. Her registry WI S
changed to Russian at the time of
her sale to Russia.
Following a litigation in federal
courts here, the Rogday was ordered
handed over to Commander NJ. Cord
enev, representative of the Kolchak
govrnment, who was the Rogday's
captain when she put into port here.
On the morning of Saturday, July
81, about o'clock boarding party
under the leadership of Lieutenant
Commander A. Benklevsky, an assist
ant naval attache of the Russian en-
bassy at Washington, D. c., went
aboard the Rogday which was moored
in China Basin and seized the trans
port.
Captain Mily Gordenev, deposed
commander of the Rogday, in state
ment following the seizure of the
transport said he was commissioned
by the Kolchak government, known
as the old Russian government, II
October, 1919, and was to proceed

PICKING
MACHINE TRIED

IMPERIAL, Aug. 10.-They are
picking cotton by machinery today on
the 101 ranch, north of Imperial.
The machine was brought here yes
terday by Captain X. F. Hand and F.
T. Gavin of Los Angeles for the pur-
pose of testing its efficiency as a
picker" The experiment will be
continued toda yand tomorrow.
This machine is operated by a crew
of five. One man operates tne -sact-
or which furnishes the motive power
and operates the suction machinery,
and the other four directs the nozzles
of the vacuum pipes. A four horse
power. tractor of standard make pro
duces the power.
Ten years ago Captain Hand made
a machine somewhat similar, at
Washington, D. C. This proved sue
cessful in many ways but that was
before the DAYS of small tractors.

Francisco, on pleasure trip. He said
that Romanossky, the Russian consul
in San Francisco, was also going out
of the city. He did this to throw me
off the track, as the next morning he
came aboard at 7 o'clock armed"
United States naval officers at
Mare Island, California, following the
seizure of the Rogday by Benklevsky
and his followers, declared that the
status of the transport should be de-
termined by the American state de-
partment because of the international
question concerned, insofar as Captain
Benklevsky claimed to be represent
ative of the Kernsky regime, which
is the only Russian government rec
ognized by the United States.
Although each faction involved in
the controversy has charged the other
with being in some manner connected
with the Bolshevik government in
each in turn vigorously denied that
it sought possession of the Rogday in
behalf of the Soviet regime.
