Multnomah's sheriff can prove an alibi,
for he has been rattled ever since be led
the K. ol T. parade three weeks ago.
Savage being unable to get bail is con
fined in the jail. Klein is kept in charge
by the detectives, the object evidently
being to keep Klein and Savage entirely
separate, until their examination is over.

fixed at 1500, but failed to see any men
tion of the Portland papers. Mr, Mor

I.. C. Martin, a car repairer, received
an injury to his right band, Saturday in
coupling cars. In pulling the pin his
hand was caught between it and the
duadwood, the pin larcerating the inside
of the hand and breaking the metacarpal
bone of the little finger. Ir. Logan at

Portland on the afternoon train the
same day.
Work is progressing rapidly at the
locks, and preparations are being made
for putting in the lower gates. Pumps
are lieing put in to pump out the lower
part of the canal, and this part of it will
be completed. The lower guard walls

force of men are at work excavating for
the upper guard walls
The secretary of the treasury has made
a ruling that natural gas imported from
Canada shall be free of duty. Some
time ago the department decided that
natural gas was a mineral product, and
a duty of 20 per cent ad valorem was im
posed. Subsequently this was reduced
to 10 per cunt, and now gits is to come in
free under the bead of "unemimerated
unmanufactured articles."
Sheriff Driver this morning, on being
informed by Klein us to its w hereabouts,
went to the alley between F'irst and
Second streets and found under the ede
of the sidewalk, near the entrance to the
old laud oflice, on Washington, a pair of
pincers which Savage and Klein had the
night of the robbery. The boys con
cealed themselves under an old work
bench in the alley at the place indicated,
while waiting for Hill to leave the ex
press oflice.
Brother Nickel!, of the Jacksonville
Times, was elected treasurer of the Ore

should get away with the "sack" be

there would be weeping and wailing,
and gnashing of teeth. Lake County
Kxaminor. The "sack" is undoubtedly
safe, as it is understood the brother re
fused an invitation to "settle up and
then settle down" on the event of bis
election.
The case of the State against Kadicke
was expected to be closed by noon to
day, but the attorneys took up consider
able time in arguing upon the admissi
bility of testimony, and so when 2
o'clock came, which was the hour set
for the examination of Gibons and Sav
age, their trial was continued until
8 o'clock. Judge Bennett will appear
for both Ciibons and Savage in their ex
amination this afternoon, and it is wife
to say the courthouse will be crowded to
its utmost capacity. There never was a
case in the city that awakened so keen
an interest, and everybody will be on
hand to hear the testimony.

Quite an excitement was caused Sun
day morning when it became known
that the parties who robbed the express
oflice had been arrested, and that those
parties were Otis Savage and Frank
Klein. This excitement increased to
the flaming point w hen the latter con
fessed and pointed out the places w litre
the money wi.a hidden. The clue which
lead to the arrest of the boys was fur
nished by Walter Howe and Hawthorne,
it being to the effect that the iron bar
with which the express box was broken
open was owned by the gang last spring,
and that in dividing up the tools the
bar in question fell to Savage and Klein.
They further stated that the tool in
question was one of the lot that they
had provided wi'h the intention of hold
ing up and going through the pansenger
trrin at some point near the high trestle
six miles west of town. Following this
due, a close watch was kept on the boys,
and Saturday night they were arrested
and put through the "sweat box." Sav
age denied, and still denies all knowl
edge ot the affair. Klein, however,
could not stand the pressure, and gave
in detail the plan and execution of the
robbery.
The detectives are keeping everything
very close, giving out no information;
hence jnst what be confessed ia hard to
say, but we give the substance of the
rumors connected w ith it. According to
these, Klein says that Italph Gibons,
the nightwatchman, was implicated
w ith them, and that he was to keep the
officers away while Savage and Klein
got away with the money. Klein had
two keys to the office, which be bad had
for a year or more. With one of these
the door of the office was opened, the
box being served the same way. They
were only in the office for a moment,
and dividing the plunder, pulled the
door, which faptens with a spring lock,
and walked north across the railroad
track. They threw the money under
the old building washed cp near the
railroad track at the west side of the
Cosmopolitan, and at onee went borne,
being in bed ten minutes after the rob
bery occurred. The next morning they
got the money and divided it, Klein tak
ing the sack containing $5,000 in small
gold, which be buried in the yard at bis
father's bouse. Savage birried the re
mainder of the money at the corner of
tiie building mentioned, and near the
sidewaU. Following Klein's instruc
tions, all the money was found but
about $200, which had been kept out for
spending money.
The boys were taken before Justice
Davis Hub morning, but as whatever was
done was behind closed doors, nothing
definite can be told. We are informed,
however, by one who ought to know,
that the boys will have an examination
tomorrow at 10 o'clock, and that neither
of them will waive examination.
About noon Night Watchman Gibons
was arrested and taken before Justice
Davis. The bonds of all those arrested
were fixed at $5000 each.
By tomorrow night the full particulars
as to Klein's confession, and other mat
ters may probably become public. In
the meanwhile the detectives are look
ing wise and waiting for somebody else
to tell them something.
Whatever else may be show n by the
testimony we feel certain that Kalph
Ciibons will come out of this examina
tion with no shadow of suspicion resting
upon him. Klein's story is to be dis
believed in some respects, and we cer
tainly would disbelieve anything he
would say implicating Gibons. It seems
suspicion fell on him for telling the boys
the money was in the box, but the ac
cepted story concerning that matter is
that Hill hunted Gibons op for the pur
pose of having hiui help him take the
money to the oflice. He met Kalph with
Otis Savage and calling him to one side
told him the money was coining, but it
seems, loud enough for Savage to hear.
Those who know Kalph Gibons will re
quire more evidence than that of a con
fessed criminal before they will doubt
his honesty. Besides the accusation
against him made by Klein might be
prompted by revengo. Klein and Savage
had deen identified with Hawthorne and
Kowe, before the robbery of Mays &
Clowe's store, if not at the time. Kalph
Gibons is the man who recogni.od Haw
thorne and Kowe and w ho made their
arrest possible. It is not probable that
ho would have anything to do with them,
even if inclined to lie a criminal. It is
quite probable that those whom he
caused to be Brrested, whose gang he
broke, np, and whose plans were thereby
destroyed, would endeavor to pull him
down in their own ruin.
It is said that further arrests will be
mode, but this remains to be seen. The
true story of the robbery cannot be
known until the evidence has been sub
mitted in the courts and there sifted
under direction of the judge by the
attorneys in the case.
The credit of working up the case be
longs entirely to Sheriff Driver, who
went to Salem, got his clue from Kowe,
and then followed the case rapidly to its
culmination, and this alter the detectives
had given np all hopes of finding the
criminals or money.

Arthur Dujbrow of Mt. Hood was in
tow n Monday for repairs on hia jaw ami
conar doiio. ue was a tiauiy used un
man and could hardly tell w hether he
hail been struck by a cyclone or a pile
driver. It seems he was riding along the
road when he overtook a neighbor,
i rank Ries.a one-armed man. Bail feel
ing had existed between him and Kies
for some time, and on this occasion they
both agreed to have it out by a po-iare
fight. Disbrow sprang from his horse
and aimed a blow at Kies, who was afoot,
do i misseu nun ana at the same time
run up against Ries' fist w ith so much
force that his jawtiono was broken and
he fell down. Getting up, he made an
other pass at his one-armed antagonist,
and this time received a blow from the
latter'a fist that broke his collar-bone,
He thereupon acknowledged himself
vanquished. Ries then acted the part
of the good Samaritan and picked him
up, helped him to mount bis horse and
accompanied him to town to a sur
geon.
Dr. Watt was called upon, who set the
fractures and fixed up the wounded man
as best be could. The doctor said the
breakage of the jawbone was a serious
matter, as it would be hard to get it to
knit together. Disbrow claims to be an
expert at hosing, and may be good
enough at the manly art with a two
fisted competitor, but next time he will
know better than to tackle a one-armed
man. Glacier.
Suicide at Hood Klver.
Will, the 17-year-old son of P.. F.
Shoemaker, wu found dead by his
father back of the Oregon Lumber Co.'s
flume, and about a half mile back of his
home, Sunday afternoon at Hood
River. The boy has been very despond
ent, and it eet.as to be a cage of suicide.
As soon as his father missed him, which
was in less than half an hour after he
left the house, he followed him, but did
not come up with him until he was
dead. The coroner went down today to
enquire into the cause of hia death.
Coroner Butts returned bora holding
an inquest on the remains of the de
ceased on the afternoon local, and from
him we leara the further particulars of
the sad affair. Will, it seems, had re
ceived a light sunstroke while working
in the hop-fields at Yakima last summer
aud has been morose and despondent
ever since. Yesterday morning be took
the shot-gun and started hunting about
10 o'clock. His father came to the
house a few moments after be left, and
immediately followed him. The boy
went across the hill into the canyon,
down which the flume from the mills'
runs, and bis father, after a vain search,
returned home, but not finding the boy
there, immediately returned to the can
yon to make further search for him. He
found the body about 2 o'clock. The
boy was lying on his left side, while
under him was a vine maple Btick about
three feet long, in one end of w hich he
had cut a notch. The gun was lying be
side hiin discharged, and to the trigger
was about six feet of string. It is sup
posed that the boy touched the trigger
with the stick, as he had placed the
muzzle of the gtin against his left breast.
The entire ci..Trge entered his side, mak
ing a ragged hole two inches in diame
ter. The body was taken home, and
there the inquest was held, resulting in
the follow ing verdic :
"We the jurors impaneled to inquire
into the cause of the death of Will Shoe
maker of Hood River, Oregon, find that
deceased came to his death by a shotgun
wound in the left breast, inflicted by his
own hand, with Intent to commit suicide:
C. . Makkham,

How H !) It.
Mr. O.Brien, of Umatilla county, is a
level-headed farmer. Instead of looking
sour, he says he is inking money this
year. He doesn't sleep. He diversifies
hia business, and runs it on business
principles. Let's see. He gets about
$200 from his butter; $100 to $200 from
hia potatoes ; perhaps $100 from bis hay ;
hia hogs pan out well, aud even with
wheat as low as it is this year he clears
something. "Mr. O'Brien," was asked,
"what principles do you apply to your
(arming to enable you to make money
w hen so many are complaining that in
no department on the farm can a profit
be secured?" The reply was: "It is
by diversity of crops, and by carefully
keeping account of all outlay and reve
nue so as to toll how much more is se
cured from one line than another.

Fraser lodge, No. 16, I. O. G. T., gave
an apron and pencil social at their hall
on Three Mile, Saturday evening, with
quite a crowd in attendance considering
the stormy weather. After all had
arrived that was expected, the house
was called to order by Chief Templar J.
A. Taylor, who stated the object was to
have a contest of an apron hemming
by the gentlemen and pencil sharpening
by the ladies, prues to be awarded to
those doing the neatest work, followed
by a short program. Two sets of num
bers having been procured, one was
given to the ladies for their aprons aud
the other was drawn by the gentlemen
for their pencils. Some time was lost
in finding partners, but toon all was
quiet and the work l-gaii. The judges
were unable to decide on two aprons
hemmed by Will Moore and Mr. Mc
Culley (a stranger lo the writer). "The
work conid not be f;c"Ihd by any of the
ladies present," no said one of the
judges. They compromised by drawing
straws, Mr. McCulley on drawing the
short straw, which was the w inning one,
was awarded the prize "Forget-me-not",
a Wyandotte rooster. Anyone
wiihing further pedegree of the fowl
may have it by enquiring of Brother
Fraser. Mrs. Chase, the fortunate one

done better if all had had sharper knives.
Some were provided with old rusty
butcher knives, the blades resembling
an old worn out saw. Follow ing was the
program :

One Who Was Thkkk.
Tha lauia of It.
The evening Telegram has a very sen
sible editorial on the "Fast Young
Man, and preached quite a sermon from
that text, using the case of Savage and
Klein of this place as a terrible example.
The lesson is all right, only in this case
the premises are wrong. One of the
boys was not left a fortune by his father,
but did have a few thousand dollars, not
more than $5000, ard the other boy had
a trade, and he trade is one of the
things that got him into trouble. Klein
was a gun and locksmith. The main
source of all the troubles of all the parties
connected with The Dalles gang of young
criminals of which Klein and Savage are
the last, was lack of control. They were
allowed to run together like a lot of wild
coyotes, and like them encouraged one
another to mischief.
The Italian Star Chamber.
What protection is there for any citi
zen when arraignments may be made in
star-chamber secresy, as was done at
The Dalles yesterday in the case of the
men arrested on the charge of robbing
the Pacific Express oflice? The men of
a right should have been arraigned in
open court. No sympathy for the prison
ers suggests these remarks, but a sense
of justice to the public prompts them.
What justice could the best man in
The Dalles hope for under such proceed
ings? The people of The Dalles should
not tolerate such a course. Where legal
injustice is done the worst criminal, be
sure the innocent have but little guar
antee of protection. Portland Sun.

The case of the state against Radicke
was on trial yesterday, and not being
finished occupied the attention of Justice
Davis all morning. Radicke was ar
rested for writing threatening letters to
Dr. Deitrich of Dufur, making all sorts
of accusations against hiin, most of
which will not bear printing, and threat
ening that if he did not settle someclaims
Radicke claimed he owed him, that he
would swear to the statements contained
in the letters and publish them . Deputy
District Attorney Phelps appears for the
prosecution, assisted by Mr. Kiddell,
and Mr. Dufur for the defense. The
doctor and Kadicke are both from Dufur
and as a result a large portion of our
neighboring town is here to testify in
the case.

The examination of Charles K. Mor

Boyd & Arnold, was concluded yester
day, and Justice Geisler was to announce
his decision this morning. The defense
was made that Morgan was not in the
employ of Boyd & Arnold, but ot the
general agency of the Hamburg-Breman
Insurance Company at San Francisco.
The general agency had lost no money
by embezzlement of Morgan, as Mr.
Arnold stated the claims for ri'ks
written there had been satisfied by the
Portland agency.

A Deserved Compliment.
Richard E. French has already risen
to prominence as one of our most suc
cessful stars. Few actors have gained a
stronger hold upon the high appreciation
of our theater-goers. In no character
has he shown great tact and ability than
in the play ol Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,
where he plays a double role. His ren
dition of these two characters have never
been surpassed in this city, and those
who failed to see him, lost a great treat
Oregonian.
From the latest figures obtainable it a)
discovered that the average freight rate
in the United States is less than in
other country. The averago per ton per
mile in Europe is 2.05 cents, while in
the Cnited States it is but 1.22 cents.
Switzerland presents the highest rate,
3,35, followed by Norway with a rate of
3 cents.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few yeara
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local rem
edies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
curable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
require constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh, manufactured by F, J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, ia the only
constitutional cure in the market. It ia
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. It acta directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces ot the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it faila to cure. Send for circular
and testimonials. Address.
