TAKE PASSENGERS FROM SHIPWRECK MARSHFIELD, Ore., Feb. 18. Work of taking off the crew of the stranded steamer Columbia was resumed this morning by the little tug Cleone. At $:15 three members of the crew had been brought ashore and a fourth was in the breeches buoy on his way to safety. Rescue of the eight still on board the steamer is being effected at the rate of one every four minutes and it is believed all will be taken off in safety. Although the Columbia shows very little damage from the severe pounding it received from the heavy seas last night, little hope is held that it can be saved as the vessel is piled high on the rocks. Thousands of residents of this district lined the cliffs overtoping the scene of the disaster as the rescue workers under the direction of Captain M. T. Jensen manipulated the transfer of passengers and the four members of the crew to safety. Thrown by huge swells upon the submerged old jetty at practically the same spot where the outbound C. A. Smith crashed previously, the Columbia, inbound to Marshall field from San Francisco to Portland, was left helpless, but not in serious danger because of its stout construction. After the Cleone, captained by E. L. Skog, had taken aboard Jensen and his life savers and shot a line to the Columbia, the Mazatlan, also bound from San Francisco to Portland, a passenger vessel, moved up the bay from her anchorage at Empire and endeavored to render assistance. The cause of the roughness of the bar, the Mazatlan was forced back to its anchorage, while the Cleone continued the rescue work. The tug Oregon of the Port of Coos Bay, which had unsuccessfully tried to lend assistance, made a second attempt and succeeded in remaining close to the Cleone. Cutters are bound today from Eureka, North Head and Seattle to aid in the recovery. N.Y. DOCTOR DEMONSTRATES NEW WHITE Dr. Thomas F.

MARSHFIELD, Orc., Feb. 15.—Three coast guard cutters are speeding today to the mouth of Coos Bay harbor in an effort to save from destruction the McConnick steamer Columbia and rescue 25 members of her crew. Hopes are held that the vessel may be pulled off the North Spit of the jetty on which the C. A. Smith, two months ago, was dashed to pieces and eleven lives lost and on which the dual passenger and freight vessel rammed yesterday with 66 people aboard. Hurried in breaches buoys by a stiff wind and lashed by the surging breakers, 34 passengers, including two women and four members of the crew, were life lined to safety after coast guard men board the steam schooner Cleone had shot a line to the vessel after braving the buffeting bar which endangered the little craft and all open aboard. SECRETARY OF NAAVY DENBY QUITS CABINET (Continued From Page One) department. Should President Coolidge accept the resignation of both the secretary and the assistant secretary, control of the navy department would automatically revert temporarily to the highest ranking officer—the chief of operations, Admiral R. E. Coontz. Simultaneously with these developments today it was rumored that a possible successor to Denby who has figured in the news of the past week as the probable new ambassador to Mexico. Warren has frequently been in consultation with President Coolidge and it had been assumed that their conferences were concerned with the diplomatic post. It now develops however, that there has been considerable conferring over Warron's assuming Denby's post. Meanwhile, accountants of the federal trade commission have been directed to go over the books and records of stock brokers in New York, Washington, and Cleveland to determine whether WOMAN SPEAKER AT ROTARY CLUB Miss Schwed of the Better American Federation, former Socialist, who was the speaker at today's Rotary club luncheon, attacked the alleged Socialist attempt to take out of the hands of the U. S. Supreme court the determination of what is and what isn't constitutional. The Socialists would transfer this power to congress, she averred. Her topic was "The Constitution." This is Miss Schwed's second or third appearance in Anaheim. If the Socialists won out in their attempt, there would be an end of standards by which to interpret the constitution, the speaker declared. In spite of camouflage, the British Labor party now in power thru alliance with the liberals secretly is trying to socialize the government, said Miss Schwed. Bolshevism in Russia illustrated socialism gone to its extreme, she said. In the matter of the Boy Scout drive the club committee reported on the work it had done. WOMAN INJURED Mrs. Jennie Mason, of South Balcom-ave., Fullerton, was injured considerably this morning, by striking her head on the floor as she fell in a faint. Mrs. Mason, who was shopping, was taken to Fullerton hospital in the Seale ambulance and later removed to her home. She is yet suffering much pain although she is consecrated this afternoon.

SPORT SNAP BY JACK Bay City Miffi falls will try to span the couple of hundred miles between that town and Detroit and keep an eye on two ball players this coming season. For Sep Good and Bill Ludolph, who practically pitched the Bay City team to the Michigan-Ontario title last season, are going south with the Detroit Tigers for tryouts and the home folk believe they'll make the grade. Good was the only hurler to ring up 20 games in his league. He lost only five. Ludolph was leading hurler of the South Dakota league last season when it fell apart. He had copied 10 games and had met defeat but twice when he found himself a baseball gryphon. He was given credit for winning the title for Sioux Falls in the Dakota circuit when the flag was awarded to that city at the blowoff. Bay City gave him a home. China may enter a net team in the Davis cup channege matches next year, it is rumored. Probably will ask that chop sticks be substituted for rackets. A year ago Cedric Durst, then a rookie first sacker with the Browns, seemed to have the makings of a great player. He may still have said makings but the present writing finds him back in the minors—called a failure by the big league bosses who might have grabbed him from the Browns. Durst was a victim of fate which at first seemed to smile on him. When the Browns signed him they expected to break him in to sub for Sisler in emergencies. When Sisler suffered the defect in his vision which has kept him from the game a year, it was believed his absence was only temporary and that Durst could fill the bill. Then came the joining news that Sisler would be lost to the team for the season. Durst immediately found himself called upon to fill the shoes day in and day out of the greatest first baseman in the game. He broke under the strain. His failure to hit was his biggest handicap. In his first 10 or 12 games he collected one lone hit. That smash, however, was a home run. As spring training season draws near the St. Louis Brown fans are trying to dope out the situation on that club. Last year they were without the services of their star first baseman, George Sisler. They were satisfied with Manager Fohl's efforts to make up for that loss, but owner Phil Ball wasn't the past week as the probable new ambassador to Mexico, Warren has frequently been in consultation with President Coolidge and it had been assumed that their conferences were concerned with the diplomatic post. It now develops however, that there has been considerable conserving over Warron's assuming Denby's post. Meanwhile, accountants of the federal trade commission have been directed to go over the books and records of stock brokers in New York, Washington, and Cleveland to determine whether government officials are listed so having dealt in steel or oil stocks. WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.—Information of such a startling nature concerning the alleged stock market operations of certain high government officials has been laid before the senate oil investigation committee that the ten day recess has been abandoned and a meeting called for this afternoon to examine several New York stock brokers. President Coolidge was acquainted at midnight with the character of the new developments and is understood to have approved the plan of procedure. SENATE CONFIRMS OWEN J. ROBERTS WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—The Senate today confirmed the appointment of Owen J. Roberts of Philadelphia, as one of the special government counsel to prosecute naval oil lease cases. The vote after a short, spirited debate was 68 to 8. WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.—Serving the Navy Edwin Denby submitted his resignation to President Coolidge. It was learned officially at the White House this morning. NAMES PLETCHER WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.—President Coolidge today sent to the senate the nomination of Henry P. Fletcher, now ambassador to Belgium, as ambassador to Italy to succeed Richard Washburn Child, who is resigning. TALIAFERRO SUES C. Taliaferro, stock salesman, is suing B. D. McAlvay for $800. Taliaferro says he sold $5000 stock in the Oil Tool Service Mfg. Co., and was to have been given $800 cash or $1000 in stock. McAlvay makes general denial. SHIP NINE CARS Orange shipments from Fullerton last week were light. Nine cars of oranges were moved by the No. Orange-co. Citrus Exchange. Non-exchange houses were reported not shipping. No lemons were shipped. Youth on Probation Superior Judge Drumm today granted probation for five years to Floyd Hall, 24, who confessed to a minor part in a holdup of a Los Angeles fruit peddler near Buena Park recently. KESY ESTATE $15,000 A $15,000 estate, consisting of a 5-acre ranch at Placentia, was left by Joseph Kesy, who died there Nov. 18, 1922, according to petition for probate of will. The widow, Mary Kesy, and three children, Joseph, 19, Alice, 23, and Louise Keasy, 21, are heirs. CALIF. HOTEL, FULLERTON J. E. Brandow, Howard Holly, Ralph Larsen, Jael Root, and F. G.

AT THE ANTLER'S HOTEL A. V. Goff, Tulsa; Richard Libert, Fresno; and L. Johnson, San Diego. The race may be growing weaker, but it will build up again. There isn't so much oratory to endure now. As spring training season draws near the St. Louis Brown fans are trying to dope out the situation on that club. Last year they were without the services of their star first baseman, George Sisler. They were satisfied with Manager Fohl's efforts to make up for that loss, but owner Phil Ball wasn't. So Fohl got the can. Slifer was made manager—a popular move. The club owners and fans are satisfied the managerial end of the team will be well handled. But unless Sisler finds himself able to play the first sack regularly, the team will still be first-baseless. Ball had hopes of grabbing young Gehrig when the Yankees tried to farm that promising first baseman for experience, but the Yanks promptly refused to consider any offers for him. Nick Altrock has signed for another season with the Washington Senators. That announcement. BUENA PARK Mr. A. V. McFee, Arthur Thurman and Mrs. E. E. Thurman attended the theater at Anaheim Friday.

TRATES NEW WHITE PLAGUE CURE ANAHEIM K. OF C. BEAT HOLLYWOOD In one of the best-played games of the year and before the largest crowd that ever saw a game at Leyola College, the strong Anaheim K. of C. defeated the Hollywood K. of C., 4 to 3, for the southern title and the right to meet the Oakland K. of C. for the State championship at Washington Park on Washington's birthday, the 22nd inst. Both teams secured in the first inning, and the teams battled even terms until the fifth when Anaheim scored on a walk and two errors. Hollywood evened the score in the eighth inning when R. Lee walked, and scored when Gillespie tripled over the center fielder's head. The huge crowd got quite a thrill when Gilespe tried to stretch his triple into a home and was thrown out-at the plate on a close relay from deep center. After one was down in the ninth La Plant hit a line-drive between left and center for a home run, and the huge crowd carried him from the field. Harry Hughes, winning pitcher, was in rare form and deserved to win. Vincent Guilano, State Athletic Commissioner, was present and invited the Anaheim aggregation to play the Oakland K. K. for the State championship. The Oakland K. C. boasts a fast all-professional nine and Anaheim will use such stars as Bob Shanklin, Dick Bonelly, Denny Murphy, West Kigdon, Frank Shellenbach and other well-known stars to get the northerners back.

B. West's court. This was made known today with the announcement that Gee, J. Carney and Vera Carney Werner, nephew and niece of the deceased, had withdrawn their petition to revoke the will, and that a settlement of their contest had been reached out of court. As the nearest kin of their uncle they had sought to break the will when they found it had cut them off and had made provision which would leave the priest, they alleged, in possession of practically the entire estate. The filing of their contesting petition some months ago aroused a sensation in the parish, where attention was drawn to their accusations that the priest had used his spiritual influence over their uncle on his death bed and had swayed him, under threat to withhold his "reward in heaven," to frame the will as it was made. The Carney will, it was alleged, made the priest residuary legatee, to receive the estate remaining after various small legacies were paid. The smaller bequests went to two nurses who cared for the dying man, and several Catholic institutions, including St. Boniface church, St. Catherine's school for boys, both at Anaheim, Anahena Council Knights of Columbus, St. Ameliaans Orphan asylum, St. Francis, Wisconsin, and St. John's Cathedral, Milwaukee, Wis. RAISE $2500 FOR BOY SCOUTS HERE Anahaim will have raised $2500 by the end of this week, when all reports are in according to Roland B. Dye, county scout executive.

R. store, and knows the game well. Tellam is a man of many years' experience in the mercantile business in California.. He comes here from Ramona. Shoes for the whole family will be offered—man, woman and child—at values which the local public will find well worth considering, says Hunt. RAISE $2500 FOR BOY SCOUTS HERE Anaheim will have raised $2500 by the end of this week, when all reports are in, according to Roland B. Dye, county scout executive. At present practically $2000 has been collected, the same amount as last year. Fullerton, the only other city where the drive has been conducted, has finished, and Santa Ana has $8000 of the total of $16,000 of the county still to raise. There was not a simultaneous drive all over the county. Police Tighten Up Police have been tightening up on violators of motor vehicle laws the last few days. Alleged violators of the traffic laws picked up over the week-end include: Gasten Janssen, Spakes and McClellan, Frank Vieno, and J. W.
