Samuel' A Gioff, whose counsel sought to have his removal to the penitentiary deferred because of ill ness, "was ordered brought into court," and later was placed in the cell room with the others. i Tfo) case came up today in the criminal court on receipt of a man date handed down by the court of AppealB ditecting the immediate execution of the sentence of : Ma chen. Dr. Lorenz and the Groffs. Attorney Maddox, for Samuel A.

" - f United States District Attorney Beaoh replied that Samuel Groff, his surety and his attorney, had been' advised of the possibility of thi(. mandate for some time; that Samuel Groff had visited the dis- ana tnat liron s son yesteraay com municated with the district- attor ney's office to know what clothing hie father might take with him to the penitentiary, today. Under these circumstances the district at tourney suggested it waB rather a sudden stroke of illness, Mr. Beach insisted upon the immediate ap pearance of the prisoner and he wa9 sent toi.

On last Mondav afternoon, Feb ruara 9th,k when Mrs. Bradford op- enea her door in answer to the door bell, the members of her Sunday scnooi class to the number of twenty-six, entered her parlor. : it was her fifty-sayenth birthday, and it was a very; pleasant, surprise. - The afternoon was .spent in pleasant conversation and reminiscences. DnriDg the . afternoon an elegant massive oak rocker and a hand some pieced quilt was brought in and presented to Mrs. Bradford as a testimony of the good wishes of her class, after which they all as sembled on the front porch and Mus Flossell Overman took a pho tograph of the group. Altogether jt was an occasion which will al ways be a bright spot on memory's payes of each - one present. The f.Hii.ts of those present were, Mrs. Mulkey, Oliver, Loggan, Rayburn, Lytle, Minton Mrs. James Sheak, Mrs. Prof, Sheak, Friend, Lay ton, Fruitl, Merrick, Roderick, Rugg, Buoy, Newton, Bishop, Oastle, Ma son, Pimm, Allen, Overman, Mrs. R..Z.

' '" ' ' Born Pebreary 4 to Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Howell, a son. . " - Pittsburg, Feb. - 2. Mrs. W. S. Flower, the offending daughter ; of the late Charles Lockhart, who by his will was left only the income of $300,000 for life, will be taken care of liberally by her two brothers and two sisters, each of whom is left al most $37,500,000 - ' ' ; -, It was announced late today that the four more fortunate brothers and sisters had held - several meet ings and had decided to each hand over to Sarah "Eleanor - Lockhart Flower about $7,500,000," which would make up a purse of $3o,ooo, ooo, equal to the share remaining of each cf the other children. It came out today that Lockhart did not disinherit his daughte ber cause of her elopement. " While he was very angry at . the time she ran away "and married the poor dentist, Dr. mower, of Pittsburg, Bnd later she was taken back into the family circle.- When, however, there came a little one to the home of Dr. Flower, in casting aboutfor a name the mother did not include the name of Lockhart, and this ' is eaid by close friends of "the family to have offended her father greatly. The story of the first meeting be tween the bid millionaire and his daughter after she had married was made public today. She had been forbidden to set foot in the Leek hart mansion, but she came quietly and often to see her sisters and oth er members of thehousehold,' always choosing a time when . her father was mo9t likely to be at home. She had not broken bread in the house since her. marriage, and one day, when luncheon time arrived, she arose to go, as she felt she would not be welcome at her father's ta ble." When she-was about to leave the housej he said: "Sarah, since you are here you. might :as well Etay for luncheon." 'And. she did.' - After that Mrs.' Flower was a fre quent caller, and she and her fath er seemed to havff forgotten their differences. In the last months of his life Mrs. Flower was often at the home of her father and during his last illness she assisted the fam ily in administering to hia wants. There was then the belief that he would provide for his daughter equally with his other children, and the fact that be did not do so caus ed great surprise: Of his boundless wealth Mr. Lock hart gave only $365,000 to charita ble institutions about one week's income. -" . That the wealth of Charles Lock hai't will reach $15o,ooo,ooo is as serted by men with whom he was intimately associated. He received quarterly from the Standard Oil TJcrrrpany $2p25o,cooY oi$ 17,ooo,ooo a year. This has been going on for years. ' He was also the owner of a large amount of real estate in New York City. . Washington, Feb. 7. After a continuous session of nine hours the senate at 8:45 passed, .the Joint Statehood bill. As passed the bill provided for the admission of the states of Oklahoma, to be compris ed of Indian territory and Oklaho ma, and New Mexico according to the present boundaries, with Ari zona eliminated, and in this .form the bill passed. . - . -';'&; Portland, Feb. 9. Judge Albert H. Tanner, law partner of John H. Mitchell, and one of the most promi nent attorneys and citizens of Port land, was indicted yesterday after noon by the Federal grand jury for the crime of perjury alleged to have been committed on January 3I while before the grand jury as a witness in relation to the dealings of Senator Mitchell with Frederick AKribs, the land speculator. At the sam time this indictment was returned three others were also reported to the court, one against Hamilton II, Hendricks for suborn ation of perjury; one against Geo. C. Brownell in amendment of the indictment for subornation of per jury returned a week ago, and the last against Henry Meldrum, Geo. Waggoner, .David W. Kinnairsd, Rufus S. Moore, a brother of State Treasurer Charles S. Moote; John W. Hamaker and Frank J. Van Winkle, for conspiracy to defraud the government. The indictment of Judge Tanner is the most sensational returned fof some time, for it brings before the public with unexpected suddenness the name of a man heretofore en tirely unconnected by rumor or fact with the far-reaching frauds now being unearthed. The indictment further charges that it was loyalty to his partner, Senator Mitchell, and a wish to spare him from the shame of the second indictment re turned a week ago which caused him to attempt to hide, according to th6 allegations of the indictment, the true state of affairs as : exlstant in the business of their law office. Washington, Feb. 8. By a vote of 326 ayes to 17 noes the house at 3:50 o'clock passed . the Esch Townsend bill, extending authori ty to the Interstate commerce com mission to fix railroad rates. The Davey bill, the democratic substi tute, was defeated, 151 ayes to 186 noes, .- - A BANK ROBBERY VAULTS OF LEBANON BANK ; DYNAMITED AND $8ooo SECURED. Entire Front Blown' Out, , Money Gathered in Sacks and Robbers Make for Portland ; by Train Other- News. " Lebanon, Or. Feb., 8. Robbers.V who left no clew whatever after a neat job, cracked the safe of Leba non Bank some time last night and got away with over $8,000, all the money there was in the bank. Lo cal parties are suspected. The cracksmen seemed to have had no horses in the vicinity, and escaped on a railroad velocipede. When the bank waB opened this morning the vault and the safe were found badly wrecked. Many $2o 1 gold pieces were scattered about the vault. The robbers carried sacks of chittim bark from a warehouse near the bank, piling them around the vault and the safe when the charges were fired. These deaden ed the sound so that although it was beard by persons in the hotel near by, they thought nothing of the explosion. ' , A stolen railroad tricycle at Tall man station leads to the belief that the robbers escaped on that to Al bany, took an early train there for Portland.' The bank carried burglar insur ance for $lo,ooo. Scroggins Bros. Bank at Sheridan, belonging to the same firm, was burglarized a year ago. One member of - the firm slept in the bank all winter until a week ago, when he gave up the practice, thinking it unnecessary. Posses of deputy sheriffs and chi tons - were,..; organized : early . . this morning as soon as the crime was discovered. They immediately took up the chase at the point where the bandite left the railroad trackB and made for the timber. The posses are mounted and are heavily armed, Police officers in every city and town in the state have been notified and ase keeping a lookout for the men in case they show up in aDy towns. Excellent descriptions of the men were obtained. It is believed by local detectives that the crime was committed by the same gang who has operated successfully in Portland and in tbe suburbs of the city during the pact three weeks. - For four nights they have committed no crimes in this city and detectives have been wait ing th hear of a "trick" in some of the smaller towns of the state. Entrance was gained to the bank building through the door of ti e office of Dr. Booth in the rear of the bank. The robbers bored through the-main eafe and then cracked tne inner safe with some explosive. Indications are that three or four men were engaged in the work, au( some Lebanon people believe tha. the robbery was committed by "home talent," because of the e curing of the chittim bark a block away. The bank' is situated on Lebanon's leadiag business corner, and it waB necessary for the robber to carry the bark the entire lengtb of an alley in the rear of a etring of business houses, including the St. Charles Hotel, and then cross the street to the bank.' . Berlin, Feb. 7. The Tageblalt reports that a plot against the czar's life was discovered by. Emperor Nicholas himself. His majesty was walking through the corridors of Tsarskoe Selo Yesterday, when he noticed a letter addressed to him self lying upon the floor. He pick ed it up and found that it contain ed the announcement that 12 men had sworn to kill him in revenge for the St. Petersburg massacre of January 22. The letter caused . much excite ment throughout the palace. Elab . orate precautions were immediately taken to protect the czar, who ha3 not left the palace since. The same paper also announces that more fighting has occurred at' Warsaw between the 'troops and strikers ' in which several were killed. H 2 cedar , shingles at $1.50 per thousand. E.
