LOST MAIL POUCH
One of Largest Thefts in His
tory of Postoffice Depart
ment Is Indicated.
TAKEN IN KANSAS CITY?
fehipment of Currency From lios An
geles Bank to Xew York Consti
tutes Bulk of I.oss Detec
tives Are at Sea.
LOS ANGELES. Cal., June 10. Reluc
tant admissions made by the Postoffice
officers of three cities today confirm to
eome extent the belief that the disap
pearance of a registered mall pouch some
where within the jurisdiction of the Kan
sas City, Mo., Postoffice last Saturday
night may prove one of the biggest hauls
by robbers In the history of the Post
office Department. From private sources
it was learned late today that a package
of at least JSO.OOO in currency was among
the contents of the pouch, which carried
in addition an unusually large number
of letters and packages containing money
and other valuables to an amount which
can only be conjectured, but which may
reach JHOOO more.
The pouch was In transit from this city
to New York and the postal Inspectors,
who have had the case in charge for at
least 48 hours, refuse any explanation of
the manner in which it became lost to
eight in transfer from one reeponsible
guardian to another, as the department
regulations providing for the protection of
registered matter are of the strictest.
Xo Iosltlve Information.
That a pouch of valuable mall has dis
appeared was admitted today by the
Department at Washington, by Postmast
er M. H. Flint of Los Angeles, and by
Inspector W. J. Vickery, attached to the
Kansas City Postoffice, who appears to
have the case for investigation. In no
case, however, was there any positive
Information to be secured as to the
amount stolen or the method of the rob
bery. The fact that the mail in process
of transfer at the Union Depot In Kan
sas City is handled in a temporary sub
station since the destruction of the reg
ular branch office by fire several months
ago supports the theory that advantage
was taken of conditions presumed to be
more lax than ordinary.
' Sent by lios Angeles Bank.
There Is reason to believe that the
$30,000 package of currency, which will
undoubtedly prove to be the largest indi
vidual loss, was a shipment made by a
Los Angeles bank te its New York cor
respondent, such transfers being frequent.
Jlr. Flint admitted, after being shown
the dispatch from Kansas City, that he
had been notified of the loss, adding
that the responsibility of the Postoffice
for its delivery ended when it was locked
in the presence of witnesses by the reg
istry clerk and delivered to the railway
postal employes.
Late this afternoon some additional in
formation relative to the package of cur
rency supposed to have been in the pouch
was oDtained from Cashier Charles Sey
ler of the Farmers and Merchants Na
tional Bank of this city, who saidi
Contained Fully $50, COO.
"According to our information a mall
pouch, made up here on June 3 and
leaving for New York on the following
morning, has disappeared. A conserva
tive valuation of the currency contents
furnished by this and other banks of
this city will be $50,000. The total amount
Is made up of between 30 and 60 pack
ages, the exact number being difficult
to determine.
"The missing funds were placed in the
Postoffice the evening of June 3, their
destinatlon being New York City. Our
correspondent there is the Chemical Na
tional Bank, to whom our portion of the
shipment was consigned."
Was Sealed in Transit.
It is admitted that the registered pouch
that has disappeared left here over the
Banta Fe Railroad the morning of June
4, and was due in Kansas City on Satur
day. In the shipment of registered pack
ages through the Postoffice, mail pouches
are sealed with a rotary lock at the
initial point with no opportunity of be
ing opened except by force or mutilation
prior to reaching their destination.
For this reason it is argued that none
of the postal employes was In a posi
tion to secure knowledge of the contents'
en route.
WAS LiOST IX KANSAS CITY
Ko Record of Missing Mail Pouch
After Reaching There.
KANSAS CITY, June 10. The regis
tered mail pouch from Los Angeles that
disappeared from Kansas City last Sat
uprday was delivered from an incoming
Hock Island train to the transfer station
at the Union Station, Kansas City, but
there is no receipt to show that it was
forwarded from here. By Sunday morn
ing it was known that it was not going
forward, for the authorities at Wash
ington telegraphed W. J. Vickery, in
spector in charge here, of the circum
stances. No trace of the pouch has been
found by Mr. Vickery, and no arrest has
been made. Twenty-two men are em
ployed in the transfer station. The fa
cilities for handling the mails have been
inadequate since the fire that partially
destroyed tlje railroad station some
months ago, and it is not possible to
guard the mail as it should be guarded.
On the pouch leaving the Los Angeles
office it was receipted for by the trans
fer man and he in turn got a receipt
for it from the railway mail clerk, who
took it on his car. Three 6hifts of rail
way mail clerks, all working in the same
car. receipted for this pouch through to
Kansas City, the last man to handle it
eastward getting a receipt for it at the
Kansas City Union Station. His receipt
shows that he brought the pouch here
and that the number of the rotary lock
was the same as that with which it was
closed in Los Angeles.
There were eight registered pouches
from Los Angeles on the train, three of
them for New York. There was nothing
to indicate which of the three contained
the $50,000 which is now reported to have
been sent in one of them.
CHAIN OF PACKING-PLANTS
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger An
nounce Plans in Chicago.
CHICAGO, 111., June 10. (Special.)
The following article appeared in the
Chicago Kxaminer of today relative to
the packing-house situation:
"Independent packers complete chain
of bouses:
"Schwarzschild & Sulzberger Company
founds new plant in Portland, Or., and
uplifts market.
"Plans of the Schwarzschild & Sulz
berger Company of Chicago, New York
and Kansas City, the largest independent
firm of packers In the United States, to
establish a chain of packing-houses in
the far West has been inaugurated with
the founding of a plant at Portland, Or.
"The Portland establishment already
has revolutionized the beef market on
the Pacific Coast. It has boomed the
price of beef on the foot sold by the
farmers and ranchers. It will undoubt
edly lower the price to the consumers.
For these reasons rival packing firms
are fighting the entry of the Schwarz
schild & Sulzberger Company into Port
land. It Is said they attempted to buy
a site chosen for the plant by the (
Bwarzscnna at ouiZDerger company into
Portland. It is said they attempted to
buy a site chosen for the plant by the
Schmwarzschild & Sulzberger, though in
this they failed. The Schwarzschild &
Sulzberger Company now owns an es
tablished packing-house, to which It has
begun large additions.
"In the meantime Its rivals have not
ceased their warfare. They are now at
tempting to secure an injunction to pre
vent the independent firm from operating
Its plant. They also are seeking to in
fluence the Portland City Council to pass
an ordinance prohibiting the operation of
a packing-house Inside the city limits.
Despite this opposition, the Schwarzschild
& Sulzberger people are planning to es
tablish other plants In San Francisco and
other Western cities. With their plants
in New York, Chicago and Kansas City,
they will thus complete a chain of estab
lishments extending from coast to coast.
They propose to take care of their grow
ing Western and far Eastern trade
through their plants at San Francisco
and Portland."

Indemnity.
TIFLIS, June '10. General Snarski has
received orders to refrain from crossing
the Russian-Persian frontier. The Rus
sian authorities are reluctant to aggra
vate the troubles of the Shah's govern
ment, particularly in view of fhe'anti
Bussian feeling prevalent among the
Persian masses, which it is reported are
partly armed with rifles and ammunition
of German origin. "The Russian govern
ment has no intention, however, of re
calling General Snarski's expeditionary
forces, as it may be urgently needed at
any moment.
ST. PETERSBURG, June 10. The exe
cution today of the ultimatum issued
by General Snarski. commander of the
Russian punitive expedition in Persia,
demanding indemnity for damages suf
fered by Russian subjects at the hands
of Persian brigands, finds the Russian
foreign office without definite informa
tllon as to the outcome of the negotia
tions, which were carried on through
the medium of the Viceroy of the Cau
causus. The Persian Legation here af
firms that Persia has satisfied the main
points of the ultimatum, having sent
$100,000 indemnity to the Viceroy, and
that Persia therefore considers the inci
dent closed.

TEHERAN, June 10. Up to the pres

an effort to find the best means of reach

LOCAL OPTION LAW DEADLY
Prohibitionists Greatly Elated ' by
Balloting of June 1, but ,Oppo-
i
nents Declare Present Move
Is Only Spasmodic.
As the result of the local option elec
tions that were held in Oregon this
month, prohibition will prevail in 21
of the 33 counties of the state
after July 1. There are from four to
16 dry precincts in each of the other
12 counties, so that there is not a
county in the state in which there is
not some dry territory. A total of 237
saloons were put out of business in the
13 counties that were carried for pro
hibition June 1, and this number is in
creased to 270 by the addition of the
saloons that have been retired by the
precinct elections in the other coun
ties. Altogether nearly 500 saloons
have been closed in this state since the
local option law was enacted. Prior
elections on this subject in this state
carried eight counties and forced ap
proximately 200 saloons to abandon
business.
Great Gain Is Shown.
Prior to this year's elections nine
counties were carried for prohibition
and the saloons, numbering about 200
were retired. These counties were:
Benton, Curry, Lane, Linn, Lincoln,
Sherman, Tillamook, Wallowa and Yam
hill. In the recent election the saloon
men caused the question of county pro
hibition to be resubmitted in all of
these counties with the exception of
Benton. With the exception of Lin
coln, which went wet by the narrow
margin of three votes, all of the coun
ties voted to continue county prohibi
tion. Several precincts In Lincoln, how
ever, voted dry and under the local op
tion law must do without these resorts,
although the county as a whole went
wet. 4
Thirteen of the 20 counties in which
the local option people called elections
on county prohibition June 1 were car
ried and added to the dry territory with,
the result that on July 1, when the ver
dict of the voters takes effect, 75 per
cent of the area of the state will be
dry; 60 'per cent of the population of
the state will be without saloons and
approximately 90 per cent of the cities
and towns will be without these re
sorts. The 13 counties that were carried for
prohibition this month were: Crook,
Douglas, Gilliam, Grant, Jackson. Jos
ephine, ' Klamath, Malheur, Morrow,
Polk, Umatilla, Union, Wheeler.
In their efforts for county prohibition
the temperance people were defeated In
seven counties, although they succeeded
in carrying from 4 to 16 precincts In
each. These counties were: Clackamas,
Coos, Harney, Lake, Marion, Wasco and
Washington. .
Precinct elections were held in indivi
dual precincts and combinations of pre
cincts in the following counties: ' Baker,
Clatsop, Columbia and Multnomah. In
this county the anti-saloon workers were
routed badly, carrying only four precincts
and retiring only four saloons out of a
total of nearly 30 precincts in which they
had called for elections. Including the
four precincts that were carried by the
local option forces June 1, there are now
27 precincts in Multnomah County in
which the sale of liquor is barred.
List of Dry Counties.
Summarized, the following 21 counties
of the state are dry: Benton, Crook,
Curry, Douglas, Gilliam, Grant, Jackson,
Josephine, Klamath, Lane, Linn, Malheur,
Morrow, Polk, Sherman, Tillamook, Uma
tilla, Union, Wheeler, Wallowa and Tarn
hill. There are a number of dry pre
cincts( in each of the other 12 counties
of the state, as follows: Baker, Clacka
mas, Clatsop, Coos, Columbia, Harney,
Lake,. Lincoln, Marion, Multnomah, Wasco
and Washington.

Under the local option law the sale of
liquor is prohibited in all districts that
have voted county prohibition. The pro
visions of the measure apply to Pullman
cars passing through the state. As a
result the thirsty passenger on the line
of the O. R. & N. can indulge in alco
holic beverages, purchased of the porter,
only as the train passes through ' the
counties of Baker, Wasco andj Multno
mah, all of the other counties through
which that railroad system passes In this
state having voted county prohibition.
Thirsty Trip on Trains.
The time between drinks under the
earns conditions will be even longer' to
the tourist on the Southern Pacific
train. After entering the state from
California he must appease his thirst en
tirely with ice water until the train en
ters Marion County, and then . he can
drink as much as he desires and the
capacity of his purse will permit intil
he reaches Portland, inasmuch as Marion
and Clackamas Counties voted to con
tinue the saloons. Jackson, Josephine,
Douglas, Lane and Linn, however, the
other counties to the south and through
which the road of the Southern Pacific
passes, have voted to oust the saloons
beginning July 1.
The saloon men are disposed to regard
the situation philosophically and view
the "prohibition wave" with what conso
lation they are able to gather from what
they term "similar epidemics" in the
East. They declare that history has
demonstrated that the demand for pro
hibition Is entirely spasmodic and not
lasting. They recall that during the 50s
practically every state east of the Mis
sissippi, which then constituted the pop
ulated districts of the United States, had
state prohibition, while not more than
20 years later Maine was. the only one
that had not .returned to the license sys
tem. "The retirement of the saloons does
not decrease the consumption of intoxi
cating liquor," declared a member of
the Liquor Dealers' Association yester
day. "I will cite Just one instance to
corroborate my statement. There are
today in Lane and Linn Counties two
of the first counties in this state to vote
county prohibition, 100 dealers operating
under a Government license, and just as
much liquor is sold as ever was sold.
In fact these 100 licenses, of which 55 are
held in the county of Lane, exceed by
20 per cent the total number of saloons
that were conducted In both counties un
der the license system."

1876 and served out his two years' cruise
following graduation. In 1S78 he resigned
from the service to engage in business
with his father and brothers. He was a
Democrat and in 1900 was chosen as a

is favored by the united States Brewers
Association in a lengthy set of principles
which the association adopted at its
closing session today. They also favor
the elimination of the objectionable fea
tures of the retail liquor traffic, and
pledge their fullest co-operation toward
their suppression. The brewers also de
clare that it is a mistake to believe that
the commercial Interests of the brewer
stand back of the excessive multiplica
tion of saloons or any of the unlawful
or improper practices of the saloon
keeper. Whenever a spirit of genuine in
quiry and rational betterment shall take
the place of heedless persecution aiming
not at improvement but at the extermi
nation of their business, the brewers will
welcome and gladly refrain from par
ticipating in politics.
The platform says if the brewers have
been driven into politics, it is due to the
intemperate -attacks upon them along po
litical lines, and in closing it proceeds:
"We turn with confidence to the fair
minded American public and ask it, in
view of many poltical instances of our
sincerity, given in the face of great dif
ficulty, to consider the statements above
made."
A letter from J. Topham Richardson, of
the English brewers, was read in which
he Btated that many churchmen and other
prominent people in England are opposed
to the efforts to prohibit the liquor traf
fic. A new National organization was
formed as a result of the fight on pro
hibition. It will be known as the
United States Manufacturers and Mer
chants Association. While not distinct
