The mulatto, the third member of

noaro residents of this neighborhood,
however, denied k now ledge of either

one of the most brilliant examples of
efficient poliee work that has been
executed in the Portland department
for a Ion a- time was manifested by the
pub He oo ni mend a t ion given to Captain
;eoru 1 1. Ha I ley, who had command
of the care and directed the actions of
the mn. and the officers who partici
pated in the work. In a letter of praino
from Chief Gritzmacher, which la as
follows: 1
It ifivon me jrrcul pleasure tn note the
plrndld wrk of the officera of your relief
ijhpctly etiirtK1 In th capture of the htfth
wnymn 1 h hi night. 1 n m a 1 tm on v I need
that the mieeeitu in a urcut mmmire In due
to your enericetle directions and rood JudK
inint. Kindly assure the officer of your re
lief that the police Hdinlnlwt rutlon 1m well
plewurd with their work and ftlve npeelnl
mention to AetftiR SerRewnt Wendorf and
t rfleern HetiMon, Veney, Tenant and Abbott
tor their splendid work.
This letter waa read aloud to the mem
be ra of Captain Bailey's relief. In view
of the many cases reported to the police
of holdups durinft the past Winter where
in the culprits escaped with apparent ease,
this feat has received the most favorable
comment from all a Idea in the police de
partment. A subscription fund was
started yesterday by the patrolmen to
buy a frold medal for Patrolman Charles
L. Henson. who stood his ground within
few feet of the thuge and tried to bring
them down after he had received a bullet
wound in his arm.
At the Coroner's inquest held at 7:30
o'clock last niKht, a jury found that the
deceased highwayman hud been killed by
Patrolman Henson while that officer was
In the proper discharge of his duty and
Included in its verdict that, in its opinion,
the officer of the law was fully justified
In taking the man's life. Practically no
facta ot Iter than t hose already related
were brought out at the inquest.
It developed, however, during the in
quest that there waa another victim to
the already lon list of those robbed by
these three men Wednesday night. Juror
William 1 rJiggin. during the examina
tion of one of the witnesses, said: "Those
must be the name three men who held up
my son. Frank l. Wiggins. He came
home shortly before 1 o'clock this morn
ing and said three men bad held him up
near the Burnable-street bridge. As he
had only 13 cents In his pocket, he did
1 not consider the loss worth reporting to
the police."
The police secured the Identification
yesterday of two of the revolvers used
bv these men and seem to have estab
lished beyond a doubt that these same
men committed the burglary at The Port
land Gun Store, on First street, between
, Alder and Morrison. The proprietor of
this place positively identified the re
volvers used by the highwaymen as two
of those xtolen from his place. That the
men have been implicated in other local
crimes is the theory of the police in spite
of persistent denials.

1 I box of cigars given him Christmas
by the Portland Railway, Light ft Power
Company. After a warm tilt with mem
bers of the Council a few days ago over
th subject of gratuities from corpora
tions. Mayor Lane's conscience Was
quickened, apparently, and he Insisted
on returning to the electric, company the
value of the cigars presented to him.
So. one day this week, the Mayor de
termined to alloy the twinges of con
science that occasionally reminded him
thnt he had smoked a box of very good
weeds at the expense of the trolley cor
poration, and he repaired to a cigar store
and asked what a box of that brand of
cigars costs. He was told the price is
$S.i. Taking this amount in hand, he
went to President Josselyn's office, at
Klrst and Alder streets. . marched Into
the rooms of the head of the corporation
and laid the shining 5 and the paler 50
cent piece on the table.
The scene, it is said, "was - indescrib
able." Even the bi-weekly meetings of
the Council, when the fur flies and the
city's conscript flers denounce each
other as grafters, paled Into insignificance
in comparison. Those In a position to
know say there was a heated as well as
pointed Interview between his honor and
President Josselyn, but both decline to
discuss the meeting.
Tho return of the 5.J0 came about, it
is supposed. -as the result of a wordy duel
between the Mayor and members of the
Council lately when Mayor Lane, in a
veto message, criticised Councllmen who
accept 'gratuities." in the way of street
car passes, from the electric company.
Mayor Ijine was taxed with having re
ceived cigars In the same way. This Jolt.
It Is supposed, refreshed the Mayors
memory and he squared the account by
returning the cost of the box given him
to President Josselyn.

EX-GOVERNOR T. T. GEER
Republican Candidate for Congress
The great need in the Northwest Is a
deeper channel in the Columbia River.
Work on this great project should be
continuous and efficient not by piecemeal.
The interests of Astoria demand a deeper
channel on the bar; those of Portland a
deeper one up the river, and every in
terest of the great Inland Empire calls
loudly for them both with a navigrable
river as far toward the mountains as it is
possible for money to secure that result.
To accomplish this requires constant work
on the part of members of Congress.
More people in Oregon and an open river
to the 9F-a has been the particular hobby
of ex-Governor Geer for 30 years, and
his ambition is to be a contributing fac
tor in securing that result.
