HIS RECORD IS ASSAILED
Reglstershlp of the Land Office Must
Go to a Man Whose Reputation.
Is Proof Against Attack
of Any Kind.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash'i
Ington, Oct. 29. If the Washington Sen
ators, when they arrive In Washington,
persist in urging the appointment of Hal
J. Cole as Register oLthe Spokane Land
Office, they will be flatly turned down by
the Administration. Assurance of this
was given to Representative Jones to
day by Secretary Hitchcock, who said
he trusted the Senators would desist in
their efforts in behalf ot Cole. Cole can
not be appointed, he said, io matter how
many Senators indorse him. His record Is
not good, and we are not going to ap
point men whose records are besmirched."

Senators' intentions.
FOR RESTORATION TO DOMAIN
Senators Ask Revocation of Order
Withdrawing Lane Co.unty Lands.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Oct .29. The Oregon Senators to

Office recommending the immediate res

ships 15, 16 and 17 south, range 4 cost,
in Lane County, which were temporarily
withdrawn several months ago with a
view to enlarging the Cascade forest re
serve. With their request the Senators for
warded a petition sent in by the Com
mercial Club of Eugene, and point out
that one ot the most prosperous mining
camps in Oregon Is situated in this pro
posed extension, employing more than GOO
men. They say that large stamp mills are
being successfully operated, and more are
now under construction on these lands
and within a short time the mines and
their employes will demand all the prod
ucts that can be raised in the vicinity.
These townships are being rapidly settled,
and the Senators state that to withdraw
permanently the tend would paralyze the
numerous industries established and
springing up and greatly retard and de
stroy the future development of that sec
tion of Lane County. Furthermore, they
insist there is no necessity for adding
these townships to the reserve.

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Oct 29. The first thing the In
terior Department will take up when it
comes to examine into the records of

nected with the Booth-Kelly Lumber
Company, which has been operating
largely in Southern Oregon and Northern
California, and that Booth, in view of
Ms connection with the company, 'should
no longer be a land officer at Roseburg.
Before he takes action In the case Sec
retary Hitchcock will thoroughly investi
gate the matter and determine whether

ness disqualifies him to hold public of
fice. EARLY TRIAL FOR THOMSON.

Grande Land Office, is ready he can be

PbGET SOUND HAS A NEED.
Chief of Marine Corps Would Enlarge
Barracks at Navy Yard.
WASHINGTON. Oct 29. The annual
'report of Major-General Heywood, Com
mander of the United States Marine
Corps, contains estimates for the follow
ing, among other improvements at the
yards and stations named:
Mare Island, Cat, erection of a small
prison for the use of the command at that
station: Puget Sound, Washington, exten
sion of present barracks.
"I am pleased to say that it was not a
mistake to enact a law which allows pro
motion from the ranks," says the Gen
o.' a an e officers in the Marina
Corps from .this source have turned out
well'
The reports from recruiting officers aro
said to joe satisfactory, and lead to the
belief that the corps will be brought to
the fullest strength allowed by law by
January 1 next
It is recommended that the leader of
the Marine Band be given the pay and
allowances of a Captain; the second lead
er, that of a. Second Llenteaant; first-class
musicians, $100 a month, and second-class
$io a month. In this connection, the re
port says:
"In order to keep up the standard of
the organization, the best musical talent
should be secured, but owing to the con
stant troubles with the various musical
unions of the country, it is difficult to get
llrst-class men to enlist for the pay now
given to the musicians of the band, and
as fast as their enlistments expire, the
best musicians decline to re-enllst owing
to the fact that they fear they will not
be allowed to accept outside engagements,
which wjll make, their pay correspond
with the amount they could earn la civil
life."

Millionaire Surely Kidnaped.
CHATTANOOGA, Oct 29. According to
advices received here from the relatives
of Edgar L. Wentz, the young Philadel
phia millionaire, who disappeared from
Big Stone Gap, Va., nearly three weeks
agp, every circumstance points to the
fact that he is being held for ransom by
kidnapers. Examinations of his deposits
and investments show them untouched,
banishing any idea thatjie has voluntar
ily disappeared. The fact "that he had no
money on his person, and that there was
no cause for murder, has exploded that
theory.
The whole matter le now In the hands
of J. F. Bulett, counsel for the Wentz
family. Various Indications have pointed
to the fact that negotiations with kidnap
ers are underlay, but thi3 is denied.

Thayer never painted such a picture.
After Callga painted and exhibited it some
one put a photograph of it on the market,
and recently this photograph has ap
peared crediting the painting to Thayer.
A year ago, after the painting had been
exhibited in Now York, Caliga'dccided to
make changes in It He lightened the
color of the wings of the angel and filled
out the canvas more completely with the
wings. The photograph represents the
picture In Its former state.
Pledges Australia to Protection.
MELBOURNE, Victoria, Oct 9. Alfred
Deakin, the new Federal Prime Minister,
in announcing the Ministerial policy to a
meeting at Ballarat today, said he was
prepared to reciprocate the proposals of
Joseph Chamberlain concerning the Brit
ish fiscal policy. The adoption of this pol
icy, ho said, would require that Australia
grow vast quantities, of wheat and In
crease her dairy products, thus giving em
ployment to mam. It would result in
turning the tide of emigration toward the
commonwealth. The government, the
Prime Minister said, would support the de
velopment of national trade. He said the
"watchword should be "fiscal peace and
preferential trade for Australia,"

REOCCUPIED BY JRUSS1A
CHINESE FAIL TO KEEP PROM
ISES AT MUKDEN.
Step Indicates That Japan Has
Agreed to Give Czar Free'
Hand in Manchuria.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 23. An official
dispatch from Mukden, Manchuria, rays:
A detachment of Russian troops entered
the town yesterday and rcoccupltd the
guardhouces. This action was In conse
quonce of the weakness displayed by the
Chinese authorities -who do not fulfill their
promises and owing to general ferment
prevailing here.
The rumors coming from Japanese
sources relative to the erection of Rus
sian forts on the Talu River, Corea. are
declared to be exaggerated. It la ex
plained that only a rampart has been
built for the secretion of the Russian set
tlements against the Chunchus.
The reports of the entry of Japanese
troops Into Corea are also unconfirmed
and the antl-Russla'n demonstrations in
Japan are now stated to be less frequent.

ment between Russia and Japan by which
the former Is to havo free swing In Man
churia, so far as Japan Is concerned.
Mr. Takahlra, the Japanese Minister,
said tonight he had read the cablegram
with deep interest, but was still without
official confirmation. The Minister seemed
to be more hopeful of a satisfactory con
clusion of fd Toklo negotiations but said
positively he had not been advised that
an agreement had been reached. He point
ed out that Russia had agreed to the
opening of Mukden to the world's com
merce and said he did not think it nec
essary for Russian troops to remain there
to carry out this promise.
