Mr. Thorne as being worth from 2 to M
at the time he received them and being

Perkins' Reasons for Merger.
When Mr. rerklns took the stand he
said:
"The acquisition of the Tennessee Coal
Jk Iron Company by the Vnlted Slates
Steel Corporation was sever brought up
or broached In any way. as far as my
knowledge goes, until perhaps the second
or third acute stage of the panic devel
oped In New York, and then it came up
very suddenly because of the series of
li.sturbanoes that .existed in New York as
a result of the great depreciation In mar
ket values and the unmarketabll'.ty of a
great many securities. '
Mr. Perkins said thai there was a gen
eral feeling, which it would be difficult
for any one to express In a concrete
statement, that. If the Tennessee Coal &
Iron stocks were tSken out of various
loans In some way. it would prevent a
great many failures and avert a spread
of the panic. Continuing, he said:
"finally, some one made a suggestion
which afterward worked out. that the
corporation might furnish 6 p?r cent sec
ond mortgage bonds In lieu of cash and
In this way put In lieu of these loana se
curities that were marketable."
Mr. Perkins told of the visit to
Washington by Judge K. H. Gary and
H. C. Frick for the purpose of seeing
the President.
"Practically everything was at a
standstill untl! we got word from
Washington as to what seemed to be
the feeling" there." continued Mr.
Perkins. "That was telephoned to me
by Judge Gary. Monday, about the time
the market opened, and the news that

TEACHER COMPELS GIRL GRAD

Result Is Tasteful White Garment
Costing $1.39 and Xo Heart
burnings. CHICAGO. Jan. 29. (Special.) Th'at
most perplexing problem of younger
remininity. the graduating dress, has
been neatly solved by the girls of the
James McCoss grammar school. The
girls make their formal leave of the
lower school this evening. v Not only
will each of the 31 or more dresses
be admirably suited to the wearer, but
each will be in perfect accord with all
the others. Thus will rivalry' and jeal
ousy die a hard, unnatural death in
this year's graduation of the South
Srde schoolgirls and all for the trif
ling sum of 1.39 per dress.
This combination of perfection is the
result of the foresight and planning of
Miss Carrie A. Hughes, the school's
domestic science instructress. Through
her an order was issued two weeks
ago by the principal of the school, Mrs.
Mary Darrow Olson, to the effect that
all of the girls would be obliged to sew
their own graduating dresses before
receiving a diploma. A hasty council
followed.
White, of course, was the color
chosen and a material called flaxon
was decided on. This could be sup
plied to each of the girls for J1.39.
Goods for the tucks and sleeves brought
the price about 5 cents higher. Still
working In sisterly harmony, thread
and needles were bought In a common
lot and made'the final total small.

STATE CAPITOL, Uem, Jan. 29. (Spe
cial.) This promises to be the most ex
travagant Legislature Oregon ever had at
Salem, not only on account of appropria
tions, but also on account of new offices
to be created and higher salaries enacted.
There are bills for creation of no less
than 200 new Jobs, most of them at fat

the state and Its subdivisions have any
need.
War between Governor Chamberlain
and salary logrollers In the Legislature

office in a special warning message. The
House replied by passing Multnomah's
bill for an extra circuit judge and over

cultural fair Senate bills appropriating
money for Eastern Oregon districts.
Senate Disregards Warning.
After receiving the special message
of the Governor today upon the subject
of salary bills, the Senate at first adopt
ed the policy of sending such bills to
the committee on county and state of
fices, with instructions to insert a
clause providing that the bills shall not
take effect until the end of the terms
of present incumbents. But when the
Senate reached House bill 69, raising
the salary of the County Superintend
ent in Vamhlll County, Barrett and
Caldwell, from Yamhill, raised a pro
test. They called attentlonto the fact
that the Governor had not said he
would veto a measure where it ap
peared that the Immediate raise was
meritorious. The bill was passed, as
also was II. B. 69, raising the salary of
the County Superintendent of Morrow
County, and H. B. Ill, raising the sal
ary of the Superintendent in Sherman.
The Governor announced that lie would
veto all salary Increases for officials now
