ANOTHER INDICTMENT AGAINST FTTZ GERALD IS REPORTED Chicago, Sept. 58 In spite of the statement of tw members of the grand jury that no such action has been take, it Is asserted today that another Indictment against George Fits. Gerald, former assorting teller of the sub-treasury, has been issued. Fitz Gerald is accused of the theft of $170, 600 frem the treasury three years ago. It is reported Fitz Gerald dined at a cafe last night with a wo. man in a purple hobble ekirt. Ac cording to current rumor she Is em ployed as a detective by the govern ment and is trying to get Fit Gerald to talk concerning the case against him. "The story is simply cooked up by some one to injure me," said Fltzl gerald, when asked about It LARGE REWARD FOR GOLD BULLION THIEVES Seattle, Sept. 16. The Alaska-Pacific Express company is expected to offer $10,000 reward for the arrest of the robbers who stole the $57,000 fram the gold bullion shipment from Fairbanks to Seattle, which was miss ed with the steamer Humbolt arriv ed here.

Quotations ranged above par, with the supply of tne cneaper graaea nuruiy suiiicieiu for the demand. The market for soft felts was also good, but the great de mand was for derbys. The bottom dropped entirely out of the straw lid market, and remainders were sent to cold storage until May 15 next, when the market for warm weather bon nets is expected to pick up. Under the provisions of the unwrit ten law the open season for straw hats within the limits of Manhattan, the Bronx and Coney Island came to a close at midnight. In certain unciv ilized sections of Greater New Yor'k including parts of Brooklyn and Sta ten Island, straw hats may legally be worn until Oct 1. Married men may also wear summer lids In Manhattan for fifteen days longer, provided they are unobtrusive and. avoid Broadway and other prominent thoroughfares. Despite the great sale of derby top pieces this morning, thousands of men appeared on the streets a,nd In "L" and subway trains wearing lids on their heads which had evidently sur vived from the season of 1909-1910. Of these, it was easy to pick out the single bucks, from the married ones. The anattached boobs invariably wore a shameful expression, fully realizing that their head-covering looked like an 1889 model bird-nest. The mar ried ones appeared content, and even gay, despite the dilapidated lids. It was easy to guess that wine, after rescuing the derby from-the garbage can, had brushed it ip and placed it on hubby's head with the delighted assertion, "Why, it looks Just like new, and lfs a lot more becoming than those ugly things they are show ing In the shop windows." Would Foreclose Mortgage, A suit to foreclose a mortgage for $15,000 was filed yesterday afternoon by Manuel Pedro against George C. Ransier and T. G. Montgomery. Ran- sler recently went into bankruptcy and Montgomery was appinted "as trustee. The mortgage was given to oover four notes, three for $4000 and one for $3000. Stand,plpe Broken Off. Tbe standplpe through which the O. R. & N'. engines are supplied with water at this point, was broken off at an early hour this morning by a pass ing freight train. The top part pf the pipe was caught by a carload of ties. The yards were almost flooded with water before the water could be turned oft Marriage licenses Issued. A marriage license was Issued last evening to Sam E. Paine and Virgin la May Berry, both of this county and this afternoon a license was Issued to William H. La Course and Miss Maude E. Moriesette, both of Adams. Miss Morisette, being but 16 years of age, the consent of her father, Frank Mor Isette was given to the marriage. Bought the Hilton Property. Chris Bredlng, the well known wheatra'ser, has Just purchased the Hilton home at 312 South Main Btreet and also the house at 317 Willow street which was formerly owned by William Hilton. The purchase of the two places was made from C. K. Cochran of Portland, who has owned the property for some months past. The sale was made through J. P. Walker, who has been living at the old Hilton home. That place will henceforth be occupied by the Bred lng family. I! Terry Buys Blooded Dog. L. G. Terry, the well known travel ing man who make his home In this city and whose one hobby Is fancy dogs, has Just purchased a female bull terrier which is probably the best blooded bull terrier in this part of the country. Her name is Bonnybred Snowbird and her sire and dam were Ch.ief Pohattan and Bonnyblrd, Chief Pohattan was the best On of Cham pion Woodcote Wonder, acknowledg ed to be the best specimen of a bull terrier ever produced, having won championships on both sides of the Atlantic. He was also probably the greatest producer this breed of dogs has ever known. The new acquisi tion Is apparently as near a perfect specimen as can be secured and her new owner Is exceedingly proud of her. rfr "Jim- 11111 is 72. St Paul, Minn., Sept. 16. James J. HiTl, affectionately known as "Jim" in the Northwest, which he has done so much to populate and develop, Is today celebrating his seventy-second birthday. At an age when most men are ready to "go away back and sit down," the famous railway magnate continues lively and chipper. His brain is apparently as active as ever, and he seldom loses an opportunity to express decided opinions on mat ter of public importance in which he Is intereste. First and foremost a railroad man, his viewpoint ia often that of the distributor rather than the producer or the consumer, but no man in the Northwest doubts that "Jim" Hill always has the welfare of the country at heart. His address be fore the recent National Conserva tion Congress was one of the hits of the session. New Rear Adjnlral. Washington. Sept. 16. Capt. Wil liam H. H. Southerland, member of the examining and retiring board of the navy, was advanced to flag rank today, succeeding Rear Admiral Al bert a. Berry. The new rear-admiral is fifty-eight years of age and entered the naval academy in 1868. He Is the youngest of the captains to be elevat ed to flag rank this year. Capt. Charles E. Fox, who went to Annapolis the same year as Rear Admiral Southerland, will become a rear admiral next Thursday, assum ing the rank vacated by Rear Admiral Herbert WInslow. Begin G. O. P.

Roosevelt's Boston Store MILTON WILL HAVE BIG FRUIT EXHIBIT Milton, the pioneer fruit center of Umatilla county, will be at the com ing district fair with an exhibit of fruits, grains and vegetables, that will eclipse all former efforts made by residents of that end of the county.

The letter also stated that the committee would be down In a few days to arrange with the fair commission for space In the pavilion. The exhibits from the Milton and Freewater country have been among the most attractive features of past fairs and the news that Milton, with an unprecedented fruit yield, would attempt to eclipse all former efforts brought Joy to the hearts of Secre tary Fitz Gerald and the other mem bers of the fair board.
