Senator McNary Is
Not To Quit Senate
For Federal Bench
WASHINGTON. Sept., 16. There is
no truth in the statement that Sen
ator McNary is to leave the senate
for a place on the federal bench.
Undoubtedly Senator MoNary could
have one of the new judgeships just
created Jby the bill signed by the
president for he has been and is a
nrima favorite with the administra
tion, but he feels that his work In
the senate is now more important
than any place on the bench could be
at this time.
At his present rate of progress Sen
ator' McNary in a year or more
will be one of the recognized lead
ers of that body. Today he has risen
to a position of much influence and
it has been many years since Oregon
was in as good a tactical position in
the senate as ft Is today through the
activity and Influence of Senator Mc
Nary. Were he to accept a p'ace on the
federal bench it would take many
years for a combination of circum
stances to place the state as favor
ably as it now is and Senator Mc
Nary has advised his friends that he
sees his duty in remaining in the
senate. His work In reclamation and
irrigation,- agriculture and appropria
tions offers a field for activity and
help for Oregon "and the West which
seldom comes to any one and Senator
McNarys friends believe that he can
accomplish a great deal during the
remainder of his term to say nothing
of future years. '

LETTERS MAY BE CLUE
TO NEW JERSEY ENIGMA
NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Sept. 20.
Six letters, alleged to have been
written by Mrs. Ellinore Mills to the
Rev. Edward W. Hall were found by
police in the rector's study today and
furnished clues which may lead to
speedy clearing up of the double mur
der mystery.
Names of persons who may have
had a hand in killing the clergyman
and the wife of his sexton were dis
covered in the letters, it was hinted.
A detective was on Jiand in the
abandoned farm house near the place
where the bodies were found under
a crabapple tree. Authorities believe
the murders may have been committed
in the old mansion.
It has many of the aspects of a
haunted house, dilapidated and falling
to pieces outside, shrouded with trees
and shrubbery, but inside handsomely
furnished with a strange atmosphere
of having been "lived in."
The new theory is that, owing to its
loneliness ami. the fact that it was
shunned, the clergyman conceived the
idea of fixing up the house as a tryst
ing place which to meet Mrs. Mills'
after nightfall. The bodies of the vic
tims of the double tragedy were found
under an apple tree not far from the
house.
The ancient farm house'' is under
guard of state police today and no one
is allowed to enter exjept upon per
mission by County Prosecutor Beek
