WEALTHY SMUGGLERS OFFER URIUES TO LOEB, NEW YORK. April 20. The smuggling syndicate that first offered Collector of the Port Loeb $100,000 to drop the government's investiga tion or tne smuggling of sleeper ' trunks containing $66,000 worth of Paris gowns Increased Its offer today to $260,000, according to Mr. Loeb. The amount now offered the gov ernment to drop the Investigation and probable prosecution Is $260,000." said Mr. Loeb. "The amount repre sents what would be the penalties of rully $200,000 above the appraised value of the goods. All offers have been refused. We want the smug glers." It Is believed that worry over this case so affected the mind of William G. Bainbrldge, confidential agent of the United States Treasury Depart ment In Paris, that he committed sui cide. The Treasury Department had fully approved Mr. Balnbrldge's course in the case, but he left a note declaring he was the victim of a plot. Mr. Loen s investigation shows that the smuggled gowns had been made In Paris by famous designers for many women of social prominence and wealth in New York. Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington and that the reason for offering such a large sum to suppress the investiga tion was to shield the women from unpleasant publicity. The collector does not believe that these women knew that their gowns were to be smuggled Into the coun try, but had purchased them as many Americans buy other goods abroad, with the understanding that they were to be delivered to them In Am erica "duty paid," or "duty free." Mr. Loeb win sell the seized gowns at public auction next month and will employ dressmakers and models to display them.

News reached this city thlB morn ing of the death In Seattle, Wash. Tuesday, April 20, 1909, of Charles Moriarty, a well known former resi dent of ROBeburg. The telegram that preceded this announcement, sent by a beattie undertaking firm, stated that the funeral would be held in Roseburg next Friday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, and that Interment would oc cur beside the grave of Mr. Morlarty's wire, in tne catholic cemetery. Ac cording to thlB arrangement, the re mains of Mr. Moriarty should ar rive In this city either tomorrow or Friday morning. The funeral will probably be held from St. Joseph's Catholic church, with services con ducted by Rev. Father W. F. McGee. The cause of Mr. Morlarty's death is unknown here. None of Mb Inti mate acquaintances in Roseburg know of any illness he may hnve been afflicted with recently and he may have met with a fatal accident. His death is the third In Mb family during the past 14 months. In Feb ruary, 1908, Mrs. Moriarty died In Alaska and was laid to rest here the following month. In June of the eame year one of Mr. Morlarty's daughters passed away in Seattle, and she now sleeps beside her mother. These two severe shocks within a few months time to the husband and father occasioned his intense grief, and, in the absence of definite infor mation, it Is presumed by many of his friends that this may have de veloped into fatal Illness. Mr. Moriarty was about 46 years of age, a member of the Elks Lodge and a railroad builder by occupation. He was well known In railroad circles throughout the northwest and On Alaska. Coming to Roseburg several years ago, Mr. Moriarty bought a fruit ranch at Edenbower, but this he sold upon deciding to re-enter rail road work. He leaves two sons and a daughter: John and Timothy Mor- laiiy, who were attending school In Spokane, and Miss Morlne Moriarty, living in Seattle. He also leaves a brother, Timothy Moriarty, whose i home Is In Seattle. Although the news concerning Mr. Morlarty's death came to this city from Seattle, he was supposed to be living In Spokane, and a letter from him, written there in the past week or two was reoeived here by H. T. McClallon. It made no mention of his being 111 at that time. COOS BAY VOTES PORT. MARSHF1ELD, Or., April 20. The election which was held yester day to decide whether or not Coos Bay would have a Port Commission waB carried by a very large majority In favor of the bill.

Thomas O'Brien was once asked. "Very distantly," replied Thomas. I was me mother's first child Bar ney was th' slvinteenth." . "Fust time you've ever milked a cow, Is It?" said Uncle Josh to his visiting nephew. "Wal, y' do It a drun sight better'n most city fellers do." It seems to come natural some how," said the youth, flushing with pleasure. "I've had a good deal of practice with a fountain pen." An officer, at a state camp, decided to see for himself how his sentries were doing their duty. He was some what surprised at overhearing the following: Halt! Who goes there?" Friend with a bottle." Pass, friend; halt, bottle." Mr. Jones had recently become the father of twins. The minister stopped him on the street to congratulate him. "Well, Jones," he said, "I hear that the Lord has smiled on you." "Smiled on me!" repeated Jones. "He laughed out loud at me!" During the recent financial depres sion In England, Pat and Mike enlist ed in the British army. After their first drill the captain, thinking the circumstances opportune for a little lecture on patriotism, demanded, elo quently: "Soldiers, why should a man die for his king and country?" This struck Pat at a proper ques tion. Turning to Mike he said: "Faith, Mike, the Captain Is rolgbt! Whol?" "Pow'ful fertile country doaun theh In Texas," said the colonel I "Yes seh!

Piles Amendment Provides For $2 Rate on Lumber $1 COMPROMISE PROBABLE1 Deadly Storms Sweep Eastern States Dead Snake Aronnd Ills Neck Drives Boy Crazy Special to the Evening Review. WASHINGTON. April 21 Senator Piles, of Washington, today offered an amendment to the tariff bill, re taining the duty of $2 Der thousand on rough lumber. The understand- Ing Is thnt more senators favor the re tention of the $2 rate than admitting lumber free, it Is reported, however, that it will be difficult to get such a rate unless the oil men make a trade with the supporters of the lumber, lead, barley and free hides schedules, as was done In the House, when the proposition for free lumber had to give way to a duty of $1 per thou sand. This rate may yet be accepted by the senate as a compromise. Roth Roads Use Canyon. Secretary Ballinger did not have an opportunity today to complete his opinion In the Deschutes Canyon rail road right-of-way case, but will do so tomorow morning. Not only will he grant a right-of-way to the Harrlman railroad, but to the Oregon Trunk Line as well, and part of the dis tance through the canyon both roads will be obliged to use the same track. This arrangement has been agreed to by representatives of both roads. Mr. Ballinger will further hold that the Interior Department has no con trol whatever over 'private 'power companies located along the Des- chutes River. Where they come In conflict with railroad rights-of-way, they have hnvo recourse . to the courts; the government has nothing iu uu mm mew. Seeks Lot Wife. PORTLAND, Or., April 21.
