When the prisoners were remanded to their cells In the Tombs, they turn ed and fllfcd out of the courtroom with as firm a step as when they first en tered.

OREGON CITY LOCKS Negligence shown In taking care of the locks on the West Side since tboy were sold by the Portland Railway, Light k Power Company to the Gov ernment U said by the officials of the Oregon City Transportation Company as the cause which led to what came near provlug a most serious accident to the steamer Pomona Friday after uoon. As the steamer was passing through the artificial waterway on route to 1'ortluiid, she struck a bolt which pro truded from the sldu of the locks. It held her fast and as the water began to recede the craft managed to extri cate herself, but In doing so her out side cylinder Umbers were split, the dock beam was damaged and the I guards smashed. She had to be taken to the Supple shipyards ana an enori will bo made to have her In shape to resume her run by Monday. No abstract of title satisfactory to the Government has been obtained to the locks and canal since the sule waa effected. Prior to the closing of the deal the street railway company was given credit for looking after the locks properly and keeping them lu good condition. Hut since then It Is claim ed they huve nut been given proper attention. A specific Instance la cited that prior to the sale guards wore main tained along the sides or the locks for the purpose of protecting the steam ers from striking on the bolts which are bidden beneath the surface of the water and extending In pruximUy to the channel. Hut now It Is asserted that no guards are kept there and ap parently little effort Is being put forth to keep the locks In good condition pending the transfer of their ownership.

The raid the most extensive and far-reaching ever made by the Govern mentwas under the personal direc tion of Postmaster-General Hitchcock and Chief Inspector Sharp, of the Post office Department . So carefully had Its details been guarded that until the first arrests were made at Indianapolis early In the day, virtually nothing was known of the Government's contem plated action. Working with clock-like precision, the Inspection force spread over 22 states, carried out the pre-arranged plans, and tonight the Postofflce De partment had received word that nearly all the designated persons had been arrested.
