Rifled U. S. Mail
Pouch for $100
United States Postoffiee Inspector
Durand, assisted by a special United
States Marshal, succeeded in un
raveling a case of rifling the mails
Saturday afternoon at Madras.
About October 20 there disappeared
a registered letter en route from Cul
ver postoffiee, between the Madras
office and Shaniko, which contained
a remittance of funds from the Culver
postoffiee. Other registered matter
of less Importance was also reported
missing at the time but Postmaster
Fred Davis of Madras was unable to
ascertain the value of any excepting
the letter from Culver which, accord
lug to reports from that office, con
tained currency and gold to the
amount of something more than
$100.
Inspector Durand refused to give
out any definite statement when
interviewed but it was ascertained
that the records of the offices
through which the letter passed
showed that it went to the Mad
ras office and was dispatched
from there in usual form to Shaniko
In a through pouch that is not
opened en route to Shaniko, and
when the sack arrived at the railroad
town It was without lock, which
was a brass one of the usual type,
and also minus a part' of the con
tents. Because of the fact that the pouch
passed through several hands be
tween the two points it seemed that
it would be almost Impossible to fix
the blame of the theft.
Willie Craig, the young man who
wns carrying the mail from Madras
to lleistler. the transfer point to the
main line for Shaniko, came to the
liiizily station and asked a young
lady there to help him count a sum
of money, the total of which was
suspiciously near the amount rolss
iug from the mails. This thread of
evidence was followed for a few hours
by the officers with the result that
young Craig was arrested, charged
with rifling the mails.
Craig's father is mail contractor
from Urixzly to Lamonta and his
uncle has the contract from Madras
to lieisler, and had his nephew Im
ployed when the theft oecured.
Hariman Road
Wins Right of Way.
The General Land Office has ap
proved the Deschutes Railroad map
covering section two of Its line be
ginning at a point 40 miles from the
Columbia River, this approval being
subject to review In the event of the
Columbia Trunk Line protest.
Over three-quarters of a mile of
this section of the road, the Des
chutes right of way conflicts with
the right of way of the Oregon Trunk
and the latter has the right of pro
test if so disposed.
About 20 miles f the Deschutes
Railway survey is covered by plat
map No. 2, extending from a point
40 miles from the mouth of the river
to a point CO miles up the river. The
conflict mentioned being at about
mllepost 41. There the Harriman
line crosses the river and from the
east side follows the west bank for
about one and one-half miles and
then recrosses to the east side. The
Oregon Trunk Line is located on the
west side of the river from the
mouth to mile post 73.
The place in conflict is just below
Sherar's bridge. On the opposite
side of the river is located the survey
of the Southern Extensions Company
aHarriman company that has sur
veyed a proposed railway route up
the canvon from the Government
dam site to Sherar's bridge.

From Medford
To Central Oregon
The Pacific & Eastern railroad, the
line now building eastward from
Medford toward Crater lake will be
extended as rapidly as possible to a
connection with either the Oregon
Trunk line or the Deschutes railroad,
says the Journal, whichever reaches
southern Oregon first.
John R. Allen of Medford, presi
dent of the Pacific & Eastern, Is In
Portland arranging for details of the
work in connection with his railroad
and also trying to secure about 500
additional men to rush the work on
the new line.
"We have between 300 and 500 men
at work now, I believe," said Mr.
Alien, "but we want 500 more If we
can get them. Our greatest trouble
at present Is to secure enough men
to rush the work along as rapidly
as possible.
"It is my hope to have the road
completed to a connection with
either the Hill or the Harriman De
schutes line within two years. It
makes no difference to us which road
we connect with we are Just as
willing to do business with the
Southern Pacific as with the Oregon
Trunk. It depends upon which line
is built first."
