ment charging conspiracy of planting
dynamite lo discredit the Lawrence
Btrlkers. Frederick Attenux was ac
quitted on the fifth count and there
was a disagreement on the other
three. Dennis Collins xaa found

torney llurlhiirt, who appeared for
Wood, today demanded a public hear
ing on the charges of attempts to

ney I'ellelier Indorsed the probe of
these charges.
The jury reported its verdict at
10 o'clock this morning. The de
fendants anil court were up all night
waiting for their findings.
The most creditable version ob
tained of the alleged bribery attempts
is Ms follows: A man approached
Juror S 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 u 1 1 near his hemic and
asked if "tie bad made up his mind,"
adding "1 will get you a e.ond job if
you vote right. This Is dune hi all
rases where big men are concerned.
You needn't be afraid. We have got
the foreman and ten others." Later,
it is alleged, the same mnn tele
phoned to Sbuman and renewed the
offer, urging him to seo an attorney
whose name he mentioned. It Is re
ported that Shtiman was offered a job
t in the Washington mill of the Ameri
can Woolen Co.. and $:iou cash.

SHASTA LIMITED LASHED.
Damage Done, Hut Weather Man De
ules it Was Tornado.
REDDING, Cal.. June 6. An In
tense but purely local tornado
snapped off a mile and a half of tele
graph poles three miles south of here
late yesterday, uprooted fruit trees,
scattered haycocks, shattered window
panes, and unroofed many lightly
built barns and sheds.
Such clouds of flying sand and
even sizable gravel followed the fun
nel shaped cloud that the northbound
Shasta Limited, which was lashed by
the tail of the storm, had to slow
down because the engineer's cab was
filled with dust and he could not see
ahead.
A heavy downpour of rain suc
ceeded the wind, scouring the gulches
until they were impassable for teams,
yet at Redding Itself there was not
a drop of rain and scarcely a gust of
wind. . Telephone and telegraph poles
on one side of the railroad were
mowed down while those on the other
side were untouched.
"If the Btorm south of Redding
last night was' a true tornado," said
Prof. Alexander McAdle, of the
weather bureau, when he was ac-
nualnted with the details, "It Is the
rirst one I have ever heard 01 in ail
foruia. "However. I shall wnnt my own
reports on the full phenomena before
I am willing to admit that this was
the first California tornado report-
il."

PORTLAND. June 6 Financed by
Portland, Southern Oregon and Mid

cement plant at a contract cost of
$460,000, will be commenced within

The plant will have a daily capacity
of 1000 barrels of cement. It will be
In operation within 10 months
Seventy-five Bkllled operatives will
be required In the plunt'B operation,
and this menus additional Oregon
population of 7a families, for all the
workmen will come from outside the
state.
To those Interested in the develop
ment of Oregon, the building of the
cement plant In Southern Oregon has
great Importance. This state con
sumes 1,250,000 barrels of cement
a year and produces not a single bar
rel. Money for cement is sent out
side the state.
Washington, on the other hand.

or cotton has t n accepteii as the
world's
know n
standard, and It Ik a well
fact that American cot tun
growers are losing large sums of
money as a result ot their failure to
properly bale and grade their cotton.
It Is even claimed that In the I'nlted
States one half of the real value of
the cotton crop Is lost to the farmers
through poor selling methods, am
lack of fiuanelal facilities. In Egypt
the government has established the
Bank of Egypt, which has done much
to assist the cotton growers of that
country In the Important task of fi
nancing their crop. The sub-comnilt-
tee will secure a complete report of
the working on this Institution. The
Egyptian method of baling, grading
and marketing their crop will be
closely studied. This sub-committee
will remain In Egypt until the mid
dle of June, according to present
plans. They left Home armed with
letters of introduction from the Hank
of Home and other European finan
cial Institutions.
A second sub-committee left for
tho south of Italy and Sicily to study
fruit raising and marketing methods
of that section.
Three sub-committees have gone to
the north of Italy, and at Florence
will separate to study the three sub
jects of rural credit banks, land
