ARRESTED IN PORTLAND
WAREHOUSEMAN CHARGED -WITH
TAKING WHEAT. .
Accnsed Is A. 31. Humphrey pi 31a-
rion County Detention FolIoTved
His Return to tlie State.
SALEM, Oct. 15. District Attorney Hart
today filed an information charging A. M.
Humphrey -with larceny by bailee. The
offense charged Is the taking of wheat
stored by farmers in the Humphrey ware
houses at Salem and Macleay, In this
county. The amount of wheat -which
Humphrey failed to turn over to the
storers or to account for in any mannner
aggregates thousands of bushels.
Humphrey Is about 45 years old. and
comes of one -of the best-known -pioneer
families In this county. He was born and
raised in the 'Waldo Hills, and it was be
cause of the good business and social
standing of his family that he was en
abled to secure possession of large tjuan
tltles of wheat. After the failure of E. E.
McKinney, four years ago. farmers In Ma
rlon County were very careful in their
dealings with warehousemen, especially
since it has heen found almost impossible
to convict -a warehouseman who sells a
farmer's wheat and refuses to account
for It. But up to a year ago Humphrey
had managed to build up a large business
and had the entire confidence of the com
munity. Soon after the close of the haul
ing season last Fall, it was learned that
Humphrey was short in his wheat ac
counts, and the farmers demanded a set
tlement. Humphrey could neither settle
nor tell the farmers what .had been done
with -their grain. He offered a compro
mise at so low a figure that personal vio
lence was threatened him. Boon after the
discovery of his shortage. Humphrey left
the state and was reported to be In CaiN
fornlav It was recently learned that he
hadTeturned to Portland, and the District
Attorney immediately took up the case,
examined witnesses and filed an informa
tion. The warrant for Humphrey's ar
rest was telegraphed to Portland, where
the defendant was arrested. This after
noon Humphrey telephoned to Sherlfi! Dur
bln. asking him to instruct the Multno
mah County Sheriff to let him go on his
own recognizance Because of Humph
rey's long absence and his anxiety for his
temporary liberty, the request was re
fused and Sheriff Frazier was instructed
to hold Humphrey as he would any other
prisoner. Deputy Sheriff Colbath went to
Portland this evening to bring the prisoner
to Salem.
Public feeling against Humphrey is quite
strong, because he has not tried to make
any explanation of the shortage. ThoU
rands of dollars worth of wheat were lost
in the McKinney warehouses four years
ago, and the farmers lost heavily again by
rrason of the burning of the Salem flour
ing mill two years ago. A short crop of
wheat last year left the fanners of this
vicinity in poor condition, and then when
Ihc-y los considerable quantities by
Humphrey's failure, they were almost
ready to. Tesort to violence in order to
redress their wrongs.
Humphrey was brought to Salem to
n.ght, and as there was no bond forth
coming, he was locked up in the County
Jail. His ball has been fixed at $300.
Vlcahetl Sot Guilty.
The following defendants t pleaded not
guilty tod"ay to the criminal charges
against them:
Henry Sullivan, criminal aEsault; John
Gow and Louis Durenberg. selling liquor
to a minor; John Kelly, assault with In
tent to kill; Fred Fisher, larceny from a
shop.
FILES ON LEWIS AND CLARK.
D. IC Warren Aslcs for Exclusive
Control of Part of the River.
ASTORIA, Or., Oct 15 A plat of a
portion of the Lewis and Clark River
and a declaration of Intention to use the
stream for floating logs was filed In the
County Cleik's office today by D. K.
"Warren, of Warrenton. The document
ttates that Mr. Warren is the owner of

ship 6 north, range 9 w est. He holds that
he has the exclusive right to regulate
and control the floating and transportation
of logs, timber and timber products down
the portion of the river that runs through
his properly. He bases his claim for
such right upon the act of February 27,
1S01, which "authorizes County Courts to
declaro unnavigable streams highways for
floating logs and to provide for improv
ing the same." Mr. Warren asserts that
he proposes to construct and operate a
dam at a designated point in the river to
provide water for forcing logs through,
the Lewis and Clark canyon. He will
also charge tolls for the use of the dam
by other parties. This declaration is
f-lmllar to the ones filed some time ago
regarding the Nehalem River, excepting
that 3tfr. Warren asks for the exclusive
right to the stream only where It runs
through his property, while the others
asked for nearly the whole river. The
matter will be taken -up at the next ses
sion of the County Court.

less, as he has now In the racks more
fish than he can possibly take care of; but

Ford, executor of the- Casper estate
against M. A. Flamondon and others to
recover on a $300 note, was decided today
in favor of the plaintiff. In his complaint,
Ford alleged the execution of the note
in favor of William Cosper. The defen

favor of Cosper, and. when the case came
to trial, an effort was made to show that

loan to Mrs. Plamondon, and thdt when
she brought the note to him the name of
Gilbert Bros, was written in as payee.

signed and Inserted the name of William
Cosper. Mrs. Plamondon testified that
"she did not take tho note to Gilbert, that
the name of Gilbert Bros, was in It when
she signed it, and that she never author
ized a change. Mrs. Plamondon's daugh
ter, who also signed the note, testified to
the same facts. A. O. Condlt, an attorney t
testified that he wrote the note, making
it payable to Gilbert Bros., that he took
the note to the bank and got the money
and delivered It to Mrs. Plamondon. The
last time he saw the note it contained
the name of Gilbert Bros. The jury was
out about half an hour and brought In a
verdict for the plaintiff.
