C., Jan. 15.—Applica- | was made to-day at the Coroner’s | into the Clallam disaster for | rants for the arrest of Captain Rob- | and others, who are held responsi- | | for the wreck, on a charge of man- | ghter. C. H. Lurgin, representing | Dominion Government, to-d said sufficient evidence had -been se- | cured to show crjminal megligence, and | he would apply to the provincial gov-, ernment on behalf of the Dominion vernment seeking the arrest of the tain and any others held to be re- ible. idence was given this morning by Richard Griffiths, one of the crew of | the Clallam, that one-of the seamen took the ensign from its box and was | hauling it to half-mast upside down | when Captain Roberts ordered him to | | take it down and put it right side up, | if nothing had occurred. About that | time a steamer, which witness took to | be a colller, passed them about three) Captain Roberts saw that | = was wrong, and about ten minutes | ter allowed the sailor to put the flag | in a reversed position. | Griffiths gave a clear statement of the happenings in connection with the, disaster. He said Captain Roberts was much excited, and told of a conversa- vhen the boats were being lowered | hen Captain Roberts had told witness nat he (the witness) would be drowned. Witness replied that if he was he would | not be only one. Griffiths said he had no hope that the | | boats would live, and advised people not to go in them. He said no steps! taken to rescue those in the water | the first boat had capsized, though they were alongside the steamer. There no rockets or bluefires or other board as far as he knew.

When the water came up to him *he clung to the®steamer’s side and climbed up the stays to the masthead, and from there watched all the men on side washed off.

TACOMA, “""1 Jan. 15.—Watson, ¥ ard of the C ]’\lmm who is in | ing the funeral of one s of the disaster, says he of the vict wishes the people who are «rmmzmz‘ 2 ain Roberts could have under- stood the uation from the stand- point of an eye witness. He said if t E ot had not been made to | save the women and children in the boats it would have resulted in every- body being lost. It would have been impossible for the women and children | to climb the hurricane deck when the steamer listed, yet if they had been on | deck the men would have had to re- | main below and give the women and | children the upper deck. All could not go up and it meant the men stay- | ing below. The trial of the lifeboats | was the only recourse. Superintendent Heath, who the steamer Clallam, said to-day: “There was never a stancher or | more seaworthy vessel on the sound | than the Clallam, and I know Captain .Robf-rw did all in his power to save | | the vessel. The Clallam’s life-saving | | apparatus was of the best and was in | | perfect condition.” LAWYERS FIGHT OUTSIDE COURT T\m Practitipners of Seattle Engage in a Lively Battle and Deal Out Stiff Punches — built | ® | Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 15. — Ex- Mayor J. T. Ronald and ex-Judge G. | Meade Emory, both prominent attor- neys, fought in the corridors of the King County Courthouse this morning. | Had not friends interfered the battle ! might have had a serious termination. | As it was, each attorney got several stiff punches in the head. Both men struck by each their glasses were scat- tered on the tiled floor. | The trouble grew out of an argument attorney for William Jensen of the Bismarck Cafe, and Emory repre- | sents the Seattle Brewing and Malting ‘Compfln\' which is engaged in litiga- | tion with the Bismarck. Recently Judge Bell enjoined the Bismarck Cafe from selling any other domestic beer but Rainier, the product of the Seattle Brewing and Malting irompany Ronald sought to have the | order modified to-day, so that Jensen | might dispose of the other beer that he had on hand. In the argument Ronald accused Emory of bad faith, alleging that in a private conversation Emo: | agreed to allow a modified order, but that when it came into court he op- posed it. Emory denied that he had agreed to any such thing. Judge Beil said that his original order would , stand.

EFFECT OF WAR TALK. While war talk and weather Londl-i tions ha-e operated to raise prices of | food products, the unquestionable im- | provement ia the tone of trade is the | mainspring of the upward swing in | prices of iron and steel, the other met- als and hides and leather which, with the advance in raw textiles, helped to | raise the general level of values of | staple prodnucts to close the highest for a year past and 37 per cent above the low point of 1896, though 7 per cent below the highest point of 1900.

MONEY NOW EASIER. NEW YORK, Jan. 15.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade to-mor- row will say: Reports of improvement in the vol- ume of business outnumber unfavor- able dispatches, although the situation is decidedly irregular. As the money market betomes easier there is bettir prospect of postponed work being re- sumed. All structural lines are largely dependent upon the ablility of the rail- roads to borrow money and the resto- ration of confidence among investors. Only fair reports are received regard- | Many iron and steel plants have re- sumed, but the prevailing curtailment is very severe. Textile fabrics are as badly unsettled ms ever, lower prices for new lines of woolens proving a dis- agreeable surprise to the many small traders. Distribution of merchandise increases with more normal weather, and clearing-houses report liberal or- ders for spring goods from sales- men at the West and South. Only a moderate improvement has appeared thus far in the demand for iron and steel products, although the resumption of idle plants has attained encouraging proportions. Hides are more active and prices firmly maintained. with some advances, especially in forelgn dried hides. Failures this week number 324 in the United States, against 267 last year,- and 24 in Canada, compared with 38 a year ago. —————— Body Will Lie in State.

Herr Jenicke, National Liberal, explained the inter- Few questions, he said, have which editors and publishers are com- pelled to testify was first discussed thirty years ago. He pointed out that compulspry process neeessarily lowers the moral tone of the news- standing in the community. Herr Jen- icke referred t@ the curious fact that in Germany it is not yet regarded as quite dignified to write for newspapers. The speaker compared the higher tone | of the English press with the tone of the press of Germany, and explained that the «former was due to the fact that England had been longer under a constitutional government and that the English press had more traditions, in- FORMER - MISSOURI CON- GRESSMAN, WHO CHAL- LENGED THE MILITIA. & Former Congressman Yields but - Threatens Dire cluding complete freedom.

He broke his parole, he said, for the ex- press purpose of getting his case be- fore the court.

Dr. Arosemena said: | “The republic will live less by its | material power than by the virtues it | will practice. Independence must be | maintained and the republic must adopt without reserve that policy of probity which is born of justice and knowledge.” Dr. Arosemena reviewed the favor- able auspices under which the repub- | lic has been born and said: “Its security is protected by a pow- | erful people in whose veins runs the ment of religious interference and the opprobium of political despotism."” Dr. Arosemena concluded by recom- mending that in the exercise of their ’dutles the members of the convention should keep their country in their | hearts and their minds. The junta message to the convention begins by reviewing the history of the independence movement and its causes. The junta formally resigns the legisla- tive powers to the convention and lays before it an account of its acts, giv ing the reasons therefor. the revenues of ‘the republic are in- sufficient, because the commercial tax | has considerably diminished on account of the anticipation of the changes which the ratification of the treaty would affect in the customs sy tem. The republic only floated |loans in New York, which were of | $100,000 each. The junta formally informs the con- vention of the ratification of the canal treaty, and said it had powerful rea- sons for such ratification, they were communicated to the con vention will show them to be ful that the benefits to be derived from this treaty are incalculable and that a seed has been sown which will grow into a tree of the greatest bepefit to posterity, and this treaty will realize the high aspirations of the people. b L 2 the Western Federation of Miners, who was released from jail at Cripple Creek under $19,000 bonds and was immediate- | 1y rearrested by the military and plac- ed in the bullpen.
