THE COOS BAY TIMES. MARSHFIELD, OREGON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 1, 1912 -EVENING EDITION Ak '4 "Li 7th Semiannual Clearance Sale! 1 ! Maj. Morrow Writes About Re moval of Dredge to Grays Harbor Now. i All efforts to rotnln the Dredgo Oregon on tho Bny to complete spec ial harbor work that wns arranged for In addition to comnletlnc tho cor .. -i ...in Aii.iMMtit in H futile, Judging from letters from Major Morrow to Dr. McCormac. ' president of the Chamber of Com merce, and John D. Ooss, receiver of , I tho Port of Coos Day, who nppoalod ( to the engineers. Mr. Goss took tho position that it was not right for tho government to break the contract it had mado with tho pcoplo hero to do extra dredging and so informed' Major Morrow. I In his letter, Mnjor Morrow Inti mities that tho Oregon may bo ro- tiirmwl hnrn nnvl nnrlnir lint ilnon not definitely so state. Thcro is an ap-M nronrliulon of only $12,000 for tho wtirk at Grays Harbor and this1 amount will not last long. Howovor, H there Is llttlo government funds nvallablu for work on Coos Day and whether she would bo returned to' work undor tliu new port commissi slon is a question. Mr. Morrow In his letter to Dr. McCormac says that' ho "regrets, possibly as much as any of your good pcoplo that this becamo necessary but it scumod tho only thing to do." Mnjor Morrow writes Mr. Goss, more fully, his letter being as fol-' lows: "Dear Judge: I havo your lottor of tho 2Cth Inst. It was with tho ut most regret Hint I was forced to tho order Issued to Mr. I.cofo, but Major Cnvanaugh, In clinrgo of tho Soattlo ofllco wns In Portland on tho day my tolcKram was sent to him and wo went over the matter thoroughly. Tho drodKo "Oregon" was construct ed ns a partnership drodgo botweon tho two ofllces, and has already ac complished a groat doal of work for this olllro than for tho harbors of tho Statu of Washington. Moreover, alio has boon opcrntlng In Coob Day for almost two years, It will bo two yearn almost, by the tl mo sho complotos tho Governniontw ork, with tho exception of tho brief absence during last sum-! mor In Coqulllo River. I "Tho bill pending nt tho tlino of our conference, now n law, carries appropriations In Washington roqulr-1 lug tho dredging to bo dono by tills ' drodgo, nnd carries no work of samo naturo for this ofllco. Tho work of tho Soattlo olllco Is of such limited extent thnt It can bo accomplished during tho winter months, prnvldod tho dredgo can bo delivered prior to (ho stormy sonson, enabling her to bo returned shortly after tho close, of winter HenHon. As you know, n trans-' for along tho coast after October llrst, Is attondod with much moro risk' than earlier, and Major Cavannugh nnd myself were both of opinion that nothing beyond tho Government pro Jcet should ho pormlttod to dolay hor tloparturo. Had I beon Inclined to oppnso his ronsonnblo nrgumont to this effect,! havo no doubt that Ills linnonl to thn nfllrn nt Mm Plilnf of Buglueers would havo had tho samo result as our decision, nnd It Is entirely possible thnt the dolay of n week required to cotuplto the piece of work you refor to would havo boon Just sulllclont to havo caused tho loss of tho drodgt, "I nut sorry thnt conditions nro ns they are, but In view of tho grontor necessity for tho snfo trans portation of tho dredgo, I could not seo my way clonr to any further claim than I made, mid lmo no doubt tho result would have boen tho snmo oven If I had."

Man Convicted of Murder of Roy Perkins Attacks Wit ness Against Him.

Ills execution wns dolayod by Gov. West who Is opposed to hanging pending tho pcoplo voting on tho eli mination of capital punishment. In a letter to Tho Times, Onrrlson says: "I wish to thank you for putting my sldo of tho enso right beforo tho iniuiie. .now sir, l tout you tnnt nvo witnesses perjured thomsolvos. I will glvo nnyono tho immo of ono of tho worst. Ono porjurod statement was that ho camo to my window nnd took out my rlllo. Later ho comes back on tho stand nnd contradicts tho statement. Tho second ono wns that ho sold mo n boat at Bmplro four years beroro my first trial. Tho third fnl ho statement was that that boat was green in color. Tho fourth was that tho boat was not n doublo endor but a plain skiff. Tho truo facto aro that I bought a boat tho last part of January or tho llrst part of February, 1000 at J. K. Grnham's taxidermist shop In Mnrshflold. It was tlod nt tho back door of tho shop. The boat was a doublo endor not n plain skiff. Tho boat was not green in coior out a hum or uoxenr red. For proof that evidence, about boat was porjurod, soo Truo Soling, Just ncross tho street from your olllco. Ho was presont when I bought tho boat, I will say that this man's evi dent o concornlng tho alleged confes sion was as rank n porjury as his eldenco about tho boat. Thoro is something mighty wrong, Sir, when a district attorney will knowingly tnko a man's life on porjurod evi dence. 1 would llko to wrlto moro to put light right beforo tho pcoplo of your county but spneo will not poriult."
