THE MOROTG OREGOJflAST, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER IS, 11HKJ. IT WELLS GOES OUT irSTEIRT IN New Adjutant-General for the Grand Army of the Republic. WHY CHANGE IS MADE Odium Brought on the Organization by Inducing Old Soldiers Wrongfully . to Take Up Timber Xand Olalms. TVjth the concurrence of the Council of Administration of the department of Ore gon G A. R., which met in the office tcrday began divorce proceedings against airs. Earl In the State Circuit Court. He sets forth that he furnished her with a fine homo at East Seventeenth and East Ankeny streets and that they were happy until Jones appeared upon the soenc early in the month of July last. Jones was very affectionate toward his alleged sister. Earl says, hugging and kissing her a great deal and holding her upon his lap and they also went out frequently together remaining away until a late hour at night. On July IS Jones and Mrs. Earl left her homo to gether and remained away for four days, and on July 30 again went away to gether and have not since returned. The Earls were married in Portland May 27, 1305. and it was only about a month later that Jones came here from Ohio. Earl asserts that he does not be lieve Jones Is his wife's brother. Airs.

Vaughn to erect waterworks for St. Johns is somewhat singular in that he does not ask for a franchise from tho city, but he says that the men whom he F. M. STEWART, TIIE NEW ADJCTA NT-GEXERAL FOR G. A. It. OF OREGON. f tetirijig Adjutant-General John L. "We ils. Grand avenue and East "yash ngten street, Monday and yesterday, F. M Stewart, member of Post No. "40, of Meejord, was appointed Adjutant and ' Quartermaster-General by Commander T 13. Hills, to succeed J. L.. Wells, who j fJed his resignation with the department j commander several days ago. It was also decided to move tho office and accounts cf the Adjutant and Quartermaster-Genera! to Ashland, the home, of Commander Hil!s. Vnder the laws of the G. A. R. the office of Adjutant and Quartermaster General Is appointive, and does not come within the jurisdiction of the Council of Administration, but the Council may ad Tlse the department commander. Resignation Is Filed. The voluntary, filing of tho resignation cf Adjutant Wells made the proceedings that followed comparatively easy for De partment Commander Hills and the coun cil, and removed the necessity of asking for it. The Adjutant-General's connec tion of the recont land cases In the Federal Court, whereby a large numbor cf oh 11 war veterans were brought into unsavory prominence and disrepute, was brought on the G. A. R., made it abso lutely necessary that the department should set itself right by condemning tho proceedings, and none recognized this more than Commander Hills. The resig nation of J. L. Wolls reached him nearly a week ago, and he immediately called the Council of Administration to audit the accounts and books of the retiring Adjutant-General, and this has been the principal business before the Council be ride fixing the time for holding the next grand encampment at Grant's Pass for next June, beginning the 20th and last ing three days. The New Adjutant-General. F. M Stewart, the new Adjutant and Quartermaster-General for the depart ment of Oregon, is the modest color bearer of Medford Post, but is regarded in high favor by his comrades. He had an excellent -war record. Ho enlisted in, 1RC2 in Company C, Fifty-fifth Illinois Regiment, and sorved till 1B65, when ho was mustered out of the service. He passed through many of the severest en gagements of the war. and was In the battle of Shiloh. At Altona, made famous !n song by the heroic defense by the few when General Sherman sent word, Hold the Fort" Mr. Stewart was one f those few who received the commenda t en of General Sherman. With Mr. Stewart as Adjutant-General, his com rades are sure there will be no more ' courthouse reunions of veterans." Ho has entered upon his duties and taken f barge of affair.. Tho office has been moved to Ashland so the department commander can keep In closer touch with t'.e details of business. Adjutant-General Stewart will make weekly visils-to Ashlard. Books and Accounts Are Straight. J The Council of Administration made a thorough examination of the books and accounts of the departmont of Retiring Adjutant olls, spending the best part of two days In the Investigation, finding them In excellent condition and every thing accounted for.- This examination was necessary before the office could be turned over to his successor. The council adjourned yesterday forenoon. Commander T. E. Hills, accompanied by Adjutant-General Stewart and B. F. Pike, past department commander, will go to Forest Grove today, where he will visit the G. A. R. post this evoning. Re turning he will visit some of the Port land posts before returning to his homo in Ashland. Grave Charge Against Wife. Go W. Earl alleges that his wife Frances D. Earl, has been guilty of- scandalous conduct with Leon Jones, who. she says, Is hor brothor; and that they are now living together. -Earl, yes- J represents will '-build the plant for the city, furnishing all the money required, and thon operate tho works as agents for the city, taking the revenues for their compensation and interest on the money invested in the plant. "It will belong to the city it will be your waterworks and we will run tho plant as your agent, and will not ask for a franchise," said Mr. Vaughn, as he ex plained the proposition, Vand at any time you may want to take the works off our hands after a cortain time there will be a way provided. The proposition provides a way by which the City of St. Johns can own its own plant. "On completion of the plant, according to plans and specifications that have been aprovod by the Board of Public Works, and by tho Council, the city will make a contract with us to operate the plant until such time as the city may purchaso it outright." Mayor King and City Attorney Greene said yesterday that they had not exam ined the proposition close onough to give an opinion as to its merits. On Its face It looked good to them. What both favor Is municipal ownership of the wator plant. They point to the success of Portland in handling its water plant, and believe that St. Johns can own and run its own water plant as well as Portland. If this proposi tion of Mr. Vaughn will further bring about municipal ownership, they will fa vor It. However, the resolution passed to night creating a Board of Public Works out of the water committee, with the ad dition of two members, is nowhore author ized in the chartor of SU Johns. The seat of all authority rests with the Coun cil, as set forth in section 9, in the cahr tur, on page S, and this Board of Public Works, created by tho resolution, under this section, can have no more authority than a committee of tho Council."

Deckle, whoso wife, known as Dorothy Gray, was asphyxiated by gas in tho bathroom of a house at 32$i Stark street, was pardoned by Governor Cham berlain yesterday, from a six months' County Jail sentence.

Judge Frazer consented and telephoned to Governor Chamberlain at Salem. The Governor sent word at 12:30 o'clock that the pardon had been signed.

In the plans for this excursion the pas senger departments of the Northern Pa cific and Navigation lines have co-operated, A. D. Charlton, assistant general pas senger, agent of the former company, giv ing considerable attention to the arrange ments, and William McMurray, assistant general passenger agent of tho O.

There was a hearing last Fri day, but the case was continued until next Friday, when he hopes for a de cision. Captain McMillen says that his wife is making a determined fight against him in court, and the outcome cannot be foretold. At the worst.
