SPOKANE. TVash., Nov. . (Special.) The local option election in Stevens County may bring a surprise. The liquor men have manifested no activity. The messengers sent out with the supplies for the election was surprised to learn that an election was to be held, for they knew nothing of such an election until the supplies were placed In their hands. Since a similar lack of interest brought out only 1712 votes at the bond election, including the vote cast by electors in all Incorporated towns. It has dawned upon the dry forces that the apathy will bring out few votes exept the electors of the incorporated town. Local option leaders have discovered that the balance of power may be wielded by a large floating vote in the mining camps about Northport, Orient and the Metallne, augmented by several men from the railroad camps In the Pend d'Oreille Valley.

TWO WOMEN ARE' ACCUSED They and One Man Got $80,000 From Warriner, Who Talks of Comely WidowAfter Confess ing He Denies Charges. CINCINNATI. Nov. 6. An official of the Big Four Railroad stated tonight that the defalcations for which ex-Treasurer Charles . L. Warriner has been arrested would be far in excess of J100.O00. Ac cording to his estimate, it will reach nearly $500,000. Eighty thousand dollars Is said to have been paid in blackmail. Two women and a man are mentioned as the blackmailers. Detectives are shadowing one of the women, who lives in Cincinnati, but it is stated that the railroad company does not intend to have her arrested, but will try to get her as a witness for the state. Warriner. who Is charged with appro priating $54,500, was released from custody late today on a bond of $20,000. During the day, Warriner made a re markable change of front. In the after noon he gave out a statement admitting his responsibility for the shortage, but declaring there were others In It. Later he changed tactics and declared that he admitted nothing. This later declaration Is taken to mean that he intends to force his alleged partners in guilt into the open. Makes Good Part or Shortage. The $54,500 named In the warrant for Warriner's arrest represents ths present amount owing to the railroad company and not the entire amount of the short age. The balance, according to the statement of General Counsel Hackney, has been covered by property that Warriner has turned over to the company. Mr. Hack ney also stated : "Mr. Warriner has with considerable frankness admitted the irregularities in hw accounts. He has undertaken to ac count for ths disappearance of the moneys taken: "First through speculation. "Second, through efforts to recover ths losses sustained, in such speculations. "Third, through blackmail levied upon him by a former employe, who claimed to know of some such irregularities. "Fourth, through blackmail levied upon him by a woman." "I am glad to havs bsm fmmd out," sm44 Waa-z-hMr. -whs In ctiarg f a de fective, was leaving the Sinton Hotel. "I am not alone in this. And, another thing, I never played a game of poker In my life. ' There is no woman In the case: that is, as far as I am concerned." Warriner, it is said, first took money to speculate in wheat. He declared he has not a cent in the world but that friends will aid him. James E. Robinson, prominent attorney of this city, an old friend and personal counsel, of Warriner, said tonight in an swer to a direct question: "Warriner simply said others were In volved in this case with him; he did not say other railroad officials. I don't know whether he meant railroad officials by the remark. I don't know whether ho means blackmailers." When Mr. Robinson was asked point edly whether or not other 'railroad offi cials would be Involved in any way, he declined to answer.- "I have not carefully read or considered the formal charges made against my client," said Mr. Robinson. "I will say this, however: Mr. Warriner's case has been poorly managed. He should have sent for me be(ore making that trip to New York to submit to an inquisition. Quizzed by Official. "He went on there alone with no legal representative or even a friend accom panying him. While at the headquarters of the New Tork Central Railroad, he was quizzed, cross-examined and put through all kinds of trying tests. "Had he seen me first there would have been a different programme carried out. He would not have gone to New York at all. He would not have been arrested. "For every $4 that Mr. Warriner got of the railroad funds, $2 went to a black mailer. Mr. Warriner has made no state ment seriously to the newspapers." That a Chicago woman, Mrs. Jeanette T. Ford, who, through a series of esca pades, has been for six years a target for publicity, gave information to the Cincinnati authorities that led to the un covering of the defalcation from the Big Four Railroad, resulting in the confession of C. L. Warriner. the treasurer of the road, and involving E. S. Cooke, of Chi cago, was the assertion of Cooke's friends today. Cincinnati was the former horn of Mrs. Ford, and she is believed to be the "comely widow" spoken of in ths confes sion of Warriner. CHICAGO MAN'S NAME HEARD Edward S. Cook Accused of Black mailing Railroad Man. CHICAGO, Nov. 6. Tha Tribune this morning says: "A Chicago man. Edgar S. Cooke, was accused yesterday by C. S. Warriner, of Cincinnati, of blackmailing him out of $100,000. Warriner is charged with the short age of a large sum from the treasury of the Big Four Railroad. 'He claims that Cooke surmised his secret and there after lived upon the profits of his In formation. "Cooke, through his attorney, last night mads Indignant denial of com plicity or knowledge. He said his ac quaintance with Warriner ceased sev eral years ago." sioiir lot o.ee tnhaWtMrts r -t- in ism. STIR IS EXPECTED Taft to Shake Things Up When He Returns. PARAMOUNT ISSUE DARK Administration's Recommendations to Coming Congress Remain Se cret Cabinet Departments Are In Chaotic State. WASHINGTON. Nov. 6. (Special.) The return of President Taft to Wash ington next Wednesday is expected to put an end to the policy of delay which has dominated the Taft Administration Bince the passage of the tariff bill last August. Since the departure of the President and almost his entire Cabinet from Washington many mat ters of great importance have been postponed for settlement pending their return. At present nobody in Washington pretends to know what the Taft ad ministration expects to ask for passage at the coming Congress. The meeting of that body is only a month off and yet the paramount issue of the Ad ministration la not yet apparent. The State Department presents the most chaotic condition of any of the executive departments, as a result of the policy of delay. Changes in the diplomatic corps at London, Paris and Pekin are on the table and the new Far Eastern and Latin American bu reaus are yet to be put on a working basis. In the absence of Secretary Nagel the Department of Commerce and Labor is administered by Solicitor EarL who Is acting Secretary since Ormsby Mc Harg, the Assistant Secretary, resigned. The customs division of the Treasury Department, which administers the new tariff law, is being supervised by Charles D. Hilles, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, in addition to his regular duties, which are in themselves onerous. It is understood here that this hiatus of public activity on the part of higher officials of the Administration has not been without result. Practically all of them, from the President down, have been giving close study during Summer months to departmental affair with a view to outlining a definite Administra tion policy tn each.
