Beattie, Wash., June 16.—The schoon
er Argus la burning, 86 miles off De
struction Island, and. according lo the
atory told by Captain Georgs' E. Brld
gelt, of the steamer Asuncion, a Pa-
clfllc Oil Company's line vessel. It la
not likely that the crew will ever be
heard from.
Captain Brldgett thinks the crew
waa blown up in on explosion of gaso
line, which earned the Are. Captain
Brldgett says he went alongside of the
Argue and at that time the vessel's
hull and bow were burned away.
The Argus was bound from Puget
eound lo Han Francisco, with a cargo
of 760,000 feat of lumber. She waa built
In 1602 and had a register of 6(7 tons
gross or 617 tons net. She waa owned
by the Pacific Ship Company, of San
Kranclacq,
Another point mentioned by Captain
Brldgett which seems to give force to
the etory that the crew perished In an
explosion la that the lashings on the
boats were not touched. The Argus
was a line schooner of her type and
carried a crew of twenty men.

EMASCULATED BEEF BILL
DISPLEASES ROOSEVELT
AND HE MAKES A KICK
By Private Loosed Wire.
Washington, June 16.—Direct from
the While House today came evidence
of the pretldent'a displeasure over the
substitute beef' Inspection bill when
Secretary Loeb gave out the following
resume of a letter sent by the presi
dent to i.Tialnnan Wadsworth, of ths
house committee:
"In the letter to Mr. Wsdeworth the
president elated that almost every
change In the proposed house amend
ment waa a change for the worse as
compared with the senate amendment,
and that, no matter how urlntentlon-
ally It waa, In the president's Judg
ment, so franwd os to minimise the
chance of rooting out the evils In the
VAUld
r
packing business.
'That the president felt It
doubtless suit those packers who ob
jected to a thorough-going Inspection,
but that he also' felt tt would, tn the
long run. be n heavy blow t» the Imneat
•took-raleer and tho honest packer.
"That the proposed amendment
would gravely hamper the
egrlculture In doing the work appoint
ed htm to do, and would simply defer
the day when we could restore the
foreign and Interstate trade In meat
to a satisfactory position.
"The president has explained verbal
ly that he Is far lee* concerned with
the question as to uhethei the [.ackers
or tha government should pay for the
Inspection than with certain uther fea
tures In the but."
