WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. Horace Tlllmnn Jones, special agent of the I Interior Department, who assisted ' L. R. Glavis in Investigating the Cunningham coal cases, sprung a sensation during the Bnllliiger-Pin-chot hearing today by declaring that Attorney Sheridan, appointed by the Government to Investigate these cases, Bpolled the Government's hope of successful prosecution. Jones testified that Sheridan revealed the entire case as soon as it was placed in his hands, giving the defense time to prepare their plan of action at leisure. He stated further that ex Governor Moore of Washington once said that if it hadn't been for alavls his people (meaning the Cunningham claimants) would have had their patent. Jones corroborated all of Glavis' testimony In detail. The report that Plnchot would go on the witness stand attracted an Immense crowd to the hearing to day. All of the principals were on hand except Balllnger. For Monster Battleships. WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. The House committee on naval airairs today decided to recommend the construction of two 28.000-ton bat tleships every year, to cost $11,000, 000 each. The Senate committee on Inter state commerco today recommended the passage of a bill amending the interstate .commerce law according to tho recommendations of President Taft In a recent message. of his own party with Lnborites and Irish Nationalists and agreed to In troduce the budget measure simul taneously with the hill giving tho House of Lords the power of the veto over the House of Commons. Asqulth hud originally planned to force a. vote on the veto before the budget was taken up. His change of pluu indicates that he has the as surauce of the King that enough Liberals will be elevated to- the peerage to pass tile veto measure if the Lords should reject the bill In Us present form. Should the King fail, however, to increase the peerage majority the cabinet will resign without passing either the budget or the Balary list and paralyze business. The alliance with the Asquith ele ment will enable the Nationalists to press their demand for home rule for Ireland. RESULT OF KNOCKING.

Ill his weekly magazine today, Senator Ln Follette charges that tV-n senatorial Investigation Into tho causes of high prices is a "frame-up," the purpose of which, he says, Is to furnish ma terial for the defense of the so called Aldrlch and Cannon alliance. As heretofore remarked, a knocker Is the. most desplsable creature that infests an community. Whether ac tuated by selfishness. Jealousy or downright meanneHS bis acts not on ly do harm to hlniHelf and his vic tims but to the community at large. Ab to the baneful results of such a despicable practice, Roseburg und Douglas county were the victims of another notable example during the present week, and the knocker whoever he may be is n sufferer In common with the rest of our people, without one lota of benefit to any one. Some of the facts In relation to this matter, wero given, to The Review In substance as follows: ' A Portland business man who has some friends In Indiana who desire to relocate In the more salubrious climate ot Western Oregon, advised them to come out mid buy a tract of between 1000 and 2000 acres of land In Douglas county, wltli which he happened to be familiar, and he knew It to be well worth the price asked for It. This Portland man is not In the real estate or land busi ness and gave this advice only as a friend. Early this week two of the lands which they contemplnled pur chasing. Their investments this 4 pleted season would have aggregated up- 4 "nest churches wards of $50,000 and this would 4 Oregon perhaps have been doubled In a veur or two. Yet the knocker injected his 4- wl" he erected on the slle of 4" deadly venom at the critical moment .J' "'o present church Is a matter 4. and the prospective Investors moved 4 t0 ',e decided upon Inter.

As nbovo stated, we don't know the Hentity of the knocker In this Instance, but the rosults of ills desplcuble act Is far reaching. The live people of this county are putting forth their energy and investing their money In an effort to bring here people of the clasB and ability of these gentlemen. They are needed in helping to de velop our county. They would make money for themselves and others In doing so, nnd build up many happy homes. It 1b upon such that our progress In a large measuro depends. General Strike Only Hope Quaker Ciiy Carmen of ri Clerk Stole Fortune. MOSTON, Mass., Feb. 25. George W.

W e don t WELL PAVED STREETS more than any other improvement, are of great value to a community and enhance the value of abutting property Can Be Paid for in 10 ANNUAL INSTALLMENTS so that the cost per year is small. The increased valuation is demonstrated in the follow ing cities in the West where the Bitulithic Pavement has been laid. Eugene Ashland Walla Walla Salem Albany Vancouver Medford Portland Boise Roseburg Pendleton Nampa Lewiston Puyallup Baker City and many other cities. It is a general proposition that two years after street has been paved. THE PROPERTY CAN BE SOLD FOR DOUBLE . the price at which it is offered before pav ing, and yet at that time enly two of the ten payments have been made.

Wollenborg, The names of two former sheriffs of Douglas county are before County udge Wonucott as nomlness to succeed H. Wollenborg as ndmlnls- rator of the eBtate of S. Marks & and Marks & Wollenborg. Heirs f the late S. Marks, represented by Homey C. S. Jackson, of this city, have petitioned for the appointment R. L. Stephens, the local shoe dealer, as the one whom they desire to take up tho administration of the wo estates. Another heir, Herman Marks, until recently a merchant of Roseburg, has petitioned for the ppointnient of E. L. Parrott. Sup porting this nomination are the Big- attires of the following creditors H. Booth, First National Hank of Roseburg, Sheridan Brothers, J. V Wright. J. F. Barker, .1. W. Hamil- on, Parrott Brothers, S. Hamilton '. S. Hamilton, Henry H. Wood- ard and Mrs. W. It. Willis. Another petition in support of Mr. Stephens is known to he In prepara tion but not yet filed. It has been signed by Al. Treason, Q. W. Jones and other creditors of tho estate aside from those above mentioned Judgo Wonacolt Is unable to say t this time when he will decide the matter, "it might be within the nexi few days or maybe much longer,' he said today. The petition of Hermann Mark recites that the rental value of the estate of S. Marks & Co. Is $3500 year and that of Marks and Wol enberg $1700 a year. The value o: personal property of tho first named state Is placed at $4500 and that of the latter at $2000. The petition filed by the heirs represented by C. S.

Wollenberg, was the owner of property of the aggre gate value of over $184,240. and al so that Samuel Marks had a large amount of individual money and property. The petition further alleges that II. Wollenberg, as administrator of tne estate, on his own verified peti tion, represents that the probable value of the estate at the time of the death of Samuel Marks. 'did not exceed the value of $50,000. and that "Hyman Wollenberg while act ing as administrator dlsiiosed of a large portion of the estate, no that the probable value of the remaining portions which will come Into the possession and control of his succes sor In office will hardly exceed the amount of J'.OO.flnO."

Although a generul strike In sym pathy with the Btreet car employees appeared remote this morning, the question Is to be finally settled next Sunday at a great mass meeting. The presence of troops along the car lines today prevented any semblance of rioting at IlrBt aud cars moved with frequency. ThlB afternoon, however, a mob attacked a car, but was repulsed by the constabulary. Several porsons were badly Injured. Indications are now that the strikers can do no further damage A gen eral strike though would paralyze business and force Bome kind of a settlement. More Oars Illuming. PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 24.

This proposnl for arbitration made by representatives of 26 re gions denominations, Including the i'U ding clergymen ,ln the city, has been approved by the strikers, who suggest, however, that one of the veil members on the proposed oard of arbitration be a represen tatlve of organized labor. Only one-third bb many arrests wore mado by tho police today as yesterday, when 78 persons were taken into custody. Among those rrested waB the son of a constable n the oftlce of the committing magis trate.

An appropriate preliminary to the meeting tonight for the formation of a Rose Club In this olty was the call of a committee of ladles at the courthouse -this afternoon in regard to rose planting in the courthouBO squnro. This committee included Mrs. V. W. llaynes, Mrs. J. H. Booth, and Mrs. J. F. Barker. Judge Wonacott went over the grounds with them and gave tho ladles the assurance that the northwest por tion of the public. Bquaro will . be graded, drained and terraced as soon as the soil is .ill condition to be worked, nnd tboy may plant as many roses as tboy desire. Their ex pressed idea is to plant three large circular beds of different - colored roses along the Main street frontage north of that portion already parked, and another on the Douglas atreot front oast ot the main en trance to tho courthouse. ;, The grounds are to be given a thorough cleaning and the present lawn largely extended. The courthouse and Jail are to bo palutod this sea son and tho latter unsightly struo- turo Is to be In u measuro hidden bv climbing vines'. The big wood shed In tho roar of the grounds Is to bo whitewashed and tho spirit ot progress now mnnlfest In our city Is to bo put In ovldenco' on the county grounds as well.
