Massacte at Bialystok Will Be Imitat ed in Other Cities. Berlin, June 18. "We have every reason to believe that the massacre ol Jews at Bialystok is a rehearsal for a wholesale repetition of the atrocities of last October,'" said Dr. Paul Nathan, president of the Central Jewish Relief league of Germany. "Our information indicates that the Bialystok massacre is the same sort of officially inspired counter revolutionary outbreak as was that at Odessa. We have learned posi tively that the government's allegation that the trouble began in consequence of the bombs being thrown at a Chris tian religions procession by Jews is a ridiculous falsehood. Bialystok is still in the hands of the drunken Coesacks, who are determined that no Jews shall be allowed to escape or go on robbed. "The military have deserted the rail way station and every passing train is held up and the passengers plundered. Panic reigns in the neighboring vil lages, which fear tbey will be the next object of attack. Numerous German firms and individuals are among the sufferers at Bialystok and cause the suggestion that German intervention be invoked." DISAGREE ON PIPE LINES.

Pinchot Says They Must Pay for All Range in Reserves. Washington Gilford Pinchot, chief of the Forestry service, has overruled the protest of the Umatilla County Woolgrowers' association in the matter of charging a grating fee (r the Blue mountain torist reserve range this sea son. The woolgrowers also protested that they were not assigned Individual ranges. The department explained that it was not customary to assign particular tracts to individual stockmen when reserves were first created, and It is not yet determined w hat plan will be followed in the Blue mountains. The assH'iation also called attention to recent d-cisions by the California and Washington courts to the effect that the secretary of agriculture is without authority to impose a tax for the use of forest reserve range, and without authority arbitrarily to regu late its use. The forest official inter pret these decisions to hold that the secretary ot agriculture had not beeu empowered to enforce any penal code, but did have the right to keep the re serves clear of stock or lease them on such reasonable conditions as he should prescribe. No appeal has been prose cuted to a final hearing in either case, but the officials believe their right in the sphere indicated is beyond all pos sible question, and say that court deci sions will have no influence upon the rules adopted for control of reserves. Bands Want To Go To Salem. Salem Almost every organized band in the state has applied to the Salem Fourth ot July committee for an en gagement. When the committee began making arrangements to celebrate the Fourth it was announced that a large number of bands, probably "0, would be employed if possible for the occa sion. The responses came thick and fast. Several davs ago the committee had engaged all the bands that could be paid from the fund available. If there were a few thousand more dollars in the treasury the committee would be willing to work overtime engaging bands. As it is the committee is satis fied .hat there will be more brass band music in Salem on the Fourth of July than was ever heard at one place in Oregon before. State Fair To Be the Greatest.

Bake City Shearing of sheep in Baker county has begun by electric machinery at the plant of Lee Bros., near here, who will first shear their own sheep and then those of Ayre and other large owners in the county. Shearing was delayed by the long con tinued wet weather, but it is said that on account of the moisture the quality of the Baker wool will this year far exceed that of preious years, as it is clean from dust and of fine texture. It is expected the tonnage will be large and that most of it will go into storage. Many Seeking Timber Land.

Portland The government canal at Celilo will cost $10,000,000, Instead ol $4,000,000, according to I. II. TaftV, who has been oterating tlah wheel near there for -0 years. "The contractors, Smith A Jones, who are digging the first half mile at the Celilo end, will lose $100,000 on the job," he said. " They took it at too low a figure, evidently not knowing the nature ot the rock they have to blast out. Their hid was i, $2114,000. They have about 100 men at work pre paring-a foundation for the rock work on the upper end ot the canal. Mr. Taffe savs there is nothing in the tlshwheel business this season because "those fellows on the lower river won't let a single salmon get past them.1' He gets a good price, 7 cents a pound, for all he traps, his market being in the Fast. His cold storage works are, however, devoid of salmon this season, anil he does not anticipate any great improvement in the rnn. Calapooia Company is Sued.

Withee has tiled suit tor $4,500 damages in the State Circuit court for Linn county, through At tor ney W. Lair Thompson.

Water Soon to Flow. Baker City Water will flow through the 12-mile ditch of the Baker Irriga tion company w ithin the next few days. This statement was made by J. A Smith, head of the company.

The ditch will be nsed fo carrying water for storage in the reservoir (or the first time next spring. All Umatilla Is Rejoicing. Athena Reports from all over Uma tilla county are to the effect that the outlook for an enormous wheat crop this season is bright. Before the heavy rains there was considerable anxiety over the outlook, as in those localities where the soil is light the prospects for a good crop were slim, and especially so where the wheat was spring sown In many places it was heilevedthe crop would be a failure outright, but every thing is now entirely different. Road Machinery Arrives. Salem Two carloads of machinery for the government experimental road construction have arrived in this city. There is one more car on the road When it arrives the work will be start ed in earnest.

California Declares War on Dishonest Insurance Companies. Sin Francisco, Juno IB. The official of California are agreed, U Is said, that (he Insurance companies which refuse to meet their obligations and pay their losses in full will not only he driven from the state, but ruined before the world. If the widest publication of their methods can accomplish that I. In snrance Commissioner 11. Marlon Well is backed bv Attorniy General ',,,, The attorney general expressed himself forceful I v today regarding the proposl Hon made bv CO companies at a meet ing In Oakland Tuesday to pay only .5 per cent ol adjusted losses. Tnder the Jaw of California. ho said, "the stale insurance commission, er can rtvoke the license of any Insur ance company for the stale when there is cause. Certainly the payment of only 75 per cent of losses would be cause. And not only would It be proof of unsoundness ami un Illness to do business, but It will be the plainest evidence of dishonesty. It would be cause for the commissioner to revoke the state license of any company stand ing for such a proposition, and I know that Mr. Wolf, whose heart Is in the situation, will Uka such action toward companies that enter such an agree inent. "This Is the limit of his power of punishment under the Calfiornia law, but he can go much further. The in surance commissioners of all the states stand together. Through them, Com missioner Wolf can advertise to all the world the dishonesty of the companies that refuse to meet their obligations. I am certain that he will use that pow er against those that give him cause." There was no change today in the alignment of Insurance companies on the proposition to make a general 25 per cent cut, but the companies that voted for full payment still hope to win over many ot those that took the stand for a percentage settlement. LIFE DISGUSTS DOWIE. Aged Prophet Lay Down to Die Once, But Could Not. Chicago. June 15. John Alexander Dowie, on the witness stand in Judge Landia' cout today, tremblingly begged for death to relieve him of his sorrows and his defeats. He declared also that should he die he would come back to earth again as Elijah the Restorer. Dowie, in the course of his lesti mony, gave the following rub's t guide a man who is about to die: "Io things in order even when you go to die. Don't make a splash and mess of it. Go to your death couch and await the end in calm. The occasion for the discussion of death came when Dowie, lighting for the ownership of Zion City and re claiming possession, which is now in the hands of Wilbur U. Vollva, was telling of his first serious illness as part of the testimony on his present competency to rule the city which he built. iowie made the amazing asser tion that after he was first stricken he lay down to die, but awoke two hours later, alive. "I was never so disgusted as when I awoke two hours later alive," he said, "and I am still alive and disgusted." MASSACRE AND PILLAGE. Bomb Flung at Christian Parade in Russia Provokes Riot. Bialystok, Russia, June 15. A Jew ish anarchist threw a bomb among the Corpus Christi procession, which was in progress here today, and killel or wounded hund'eds of persons. In con sequence the Christians attacked and massacred the Jews and demolished their shops.

Notice was served on Senators Nelson and Mi Cumber today by the steering committee that the senate w ill not per mit them to continue their hold-up of this nomination which it is apparent to practically tne entire senate that Wick ersham has been unjustly accused arid that the light against him is not being made in good faith.

DRAWN BV PACKERS New Meat Inspection Hill Was Tticlr Siiyijcstlon. RtrKKSLNTATIVK WAS IN CIIICAUd Member of Committee Submitted Sub. Stitoto to Packers Changes Ac cepted In Full. Washington, June 10. President Kooseveit has vet to play hi trump card against the men In congress w ho are endeavoring to render Im fTectivn the lleveridgn meat Inspection auieud meut to the agricultural bill. It I.... came known today that the house coin mitten substitute lor the l'.i-verl.le amendment was actually drrfwn by tli Chicago packers and was reported by the committee exactly as rriit stei hy the men whom the president proposes to place undet government Inspection. The houe committee last Saturday morning reached an agreement to re port its substitute and immedlatly lit-p-resentalive Iirtmer left for Chicsgo with a copy of the committee bitl. Ho spent half a day Sunday In conference, with the leading packers of bis hoinn city, submitting to them the substi tute draw n by himself and Chairman Wadsworth ami accepted by the major ity of the house committee. The pack ers went over this proposed legislation very carefully, wrote in many changes which they desired, and asked Mr. br liner to do his host to have their ideas carried out. Mr. l-orimer hastened bsck to Wash ington, submitted the pucker' Ideas t the committee, and the majority of the committee actually adopted every sug gestion that was made to Mr. I.olimer, repotting a substitute for the lleveiidgo amendment identical w ith that w hich was endorsed hy representatives of tho packers In Chicago on Sunday. Thesn facts are vouched fur by two members of the house committee, anil they 1imv reported them to the president. Such evidence as this is the strongest kind d a club for the president, and will do more than anything else to de feat the committee proposition and force the house to accept something very similar to the original lUveridge amendment; to do otherwise, the house would have to acknow ledge that it was legislating at the direction of the Ix-rl trust and few congressmen care to go into the campaign this fall with any such record to their credit. WANT APPEAL TO COURTS. Victims of Postal Fraud Orders Want Cortelyou Curbed. Washington, June ltl. Fffort li be ing made to curb the power exercised ly the I'ofttoflice department in issuing frau I orders against mall. The house, committee on judiciary has reported favorably a measure granting appeal from department fraud orders to the courts, w .ere the petitioner shall hit in n red the right to a full judicial hearing on the facts and judicial judg ment as to whether the postal laws and regulations are he'iig violated. Department rulings un use of (T.e mails, especially on the point 'w hether fraud is being commiitud, have been the subject of rnsny sharp controversies. The plenary powers ol tho executive officials have been as frequently es tablished. Accumulated disappoint ment of those denied access to the mails is offered in explanation of tho present movement. Hince the removal of Tyner, there have been no charges ot wilful abuse of the powers of the de partment, but the purity of purpose conceded to olllcials has not removed the sting entirely for those who have suff ired. There is little prospect that the mesauru will be passed by the house this session, but assurancn is had that a sei ious effort will be made to put it on tho statute hooks before the close of the Fifty-ninth congress. Ready to Reduce Navy. Rome, June 1. In the chamber of deputies today, Signor Hrtinialti inter rogated the government relative to the proposal ot the Jiritiih government at Hie Hague conference for reduction of armament. Foreign Minister Tittoni replied that he was glnd of the oppor tunity to publicly express Italy's ad- i em on to the huimtiiitariun proposal of Great l!rlain, adding that Italy always was ready to co-operate sincerely with initiatives aiming at the simultaneous reduction of armament to avert the dangers and disasters of war.
