Hood Announces Extension.
General Manager OBrien and Chief
Engineer Boschke. of the Harriman
lines In the Pacific Northwest, were
advised late yesterday afternoon of
the proposed extensions in the Oregon
Eastern. The information came in a
letter from Chief Engineer Hood, of
the Southern Pacific at San Francisco,
who requested that Portland contract
ors be advised and given an opportu
nity to submit bids.
While the Oregon Eastern is located
entirely within this state, its construc
tion and all details relating thereto
will be directed from the San Francisco
offices of the Southern Pacific. When
the road has been built, it will be
turned over to the operating depart
ment, but not until then does it come
under the Jurisdiction of General Man
ager O'Brien.
Cover Third or Length.
The two extensions, aggregating
about o miles, for which bids have
been asked, cover about one-third of
the length or the proposed road, which,
according to the approved survey, will
he 198.6 miles in length from Klamath
' Falls to Natron. The extension of 34.24
miles out of Natron is all In Lane
County and la regarded a heavy piece
of construction work. It will extend
in a southeasterly direction and will
penetrate both a mountainous and a
heavily timbered section. Construction
of the Klamath Falls end of the author
ised extensions will not be as difficult.
From Klamath Fail ...
- - . "uic Ul LUfl
railroad extends northwesterly and the
extension of 25.24 miles will terminate
in the vicinity of Survey station, at a
i'"'"' oomewnat northerly from Sprague
River.
The action of Harriman in calling for
x bids for extending this road by begin
ning work simultaneously at Natron
and KlnmntVi Poll, i - .
. . la aipiea as con -
evidence ot his determination to
complete its construction. It is figured
that to build the 60 miles of track for
which bids hare been invited will prac
tically exhaust the appropriation that
has been made for this road for the
ensuing year. For that reason addi
tional appropriations for further exten
sions are looked for next year.
Means Completion or Road.
There can be no question of the ulti
mate purpose of Harriman to complete
this road between Natron and Klamath
Falls. Completion of the extensions for
which proposals have been asked can
not In themselves add materially to the
value or the property. By extending
the road 25 miles northerly from Klam
ath Falls, the northern terminus of the
southern extension would reach only
Into the heart of Klamath County. The
construction of an additional 35 miles

a detached portion of our globe, was
the announcement made tonight by
Professor T. J. J. See, astronomer In
charge of the naval observatory at
Mare Island. In a report to the
Astronomical Society of the Paciric
He rejects entirely the long-accepted
theories or La Place and Sir George
Darwin, ascribing earthly origin to the
moon, and asserts that his discovery Is
supported by rigorous mathematical
proof based on the methods of Hill,
Poincare and Darwin.
Professor See's announcement was a
further development of his discovery
promulgated last January, that all
planets and satellites are captured
bodies whose orbits have been reduced
since in size and rounded Into perfect
circles under the secular action of the
nebular resisting medium once pervad
ing the solar system.
In a second paper, Proressor See ex
plained the famous outstanding Hi
equality or six seconds In the secular
acceleration of the moon's mean mo

was still slowly nearing the earth. Pro
fessor See said he had removed the last
difficulty and the result would be a
decided improvement In astronomy.
CO-OPERATIVE FIRM FAILS
Labor Union Laundry in Spokane Is
Forced to Wall.
SPOKANE, Wash., June 25. (Special.)
Heavily in debt. Judgments of consider
able amount and $3000 or thereabouts in
unpaid mortgages hanging over It, the
Union Laundry, the first co-operative
venture in speculative fields by Spokane's
labor unions, has changed hands and prac
tically gone to the wall.
Labor unionists have lost their money
and the mortgage and have been notified
that the machinery and all other effects
aside from its trade and name are at their
disposal.
With a mortgage of $1500 on the ma
chinery, the Traders National Bank comes
first, and when that institution is satis
fled the Spokane Labor Temple Associa
tion's mortgage of $900,' and that of $600
said to be held against the property by
J. H. Stevenson, a prominent team-
owner, will practically stand for naught.
according to the way labor unionists have
the thing figured today.

Pleadings or Government Agent
Sent Among Them.
SPOKANE, Wash., tlune 25. (Spe
cial.) Located in the valley of the
Pend .d'Orellle River, the Kalispel In
dians are ruled by Chief Mas-alow in
the old-time Indian form, according to
Captain John Mc Webster, special In
dian agent for the Government.
So thoroughly contented are the
members of the Kalispel tribe with
their location that they cannot be In
duced to move. Captain McWebster
states that about four year, ago, at
the request of the officer, at Washing
ton, he spent several day. with the
Kalispel. and Implored them to give
up their land on the Pend d'Orellle and
remove either to the Coeur d'Alene or
the Spokane reservations, but the In
dians stubbornly refused to go.
The Kalispels occupy a rich tract of
land extending about eight mile, along
the Pend d'Oreille River, opposite the
town of Cusick.

LAW IS FARCE, SAYS JUDGE
Spokane Police Court Magistrate Re
leases Cigarette Smoker.
SPOKANE, Wash., June 25. (Special.)
"The cigarette law may be a good law,
but it appears to me to be very farcical.
I am in great doubu vhether it will
stand the test If contested. It is un
fortunate that some ' person who has
money will not contest the law. Until
that Is done, such men as you, who have
no money, will be compelled to pay the
penalty. The cigarette law is in the na
ture of a farce, like a great many laws
included in the new code."
So said Police Judge Mann In the Po
lice Court this afternoon, in the case of
Richard McCarthy. McCarthy was re
leased on his own recognizance.

House Appropriates $40,000 ror
Expenses and Miscellaneous Bills
Are Presented ror Considera
tion at Extra Session.
OLYMPIA, Wash., June 2S.-(Staff Cor-respondent.-By
unanimous vote and
without comment or debate, the lower
house or the Legislature today adopted a
resolution Impeaching J. H. Schlvely,
State Insurance Commissioner, and au
thorized the appointment or a committee
of seven members to formulate the
charges.
This action was taken after it was
learned that the Palmer House bill
abolishing the office of Insurance Com
missioner had not succeeded In passing
the Senate, and was doomed to defeat
if it came before that body for final
passage at the present stage of the
proceedings.
Committee Has Palmer Bill.
The Palmer bill now rests in the
hands of the Senate commitee on pub
lic morals, where its friends succeeded
In sending it after a test vote had
been taken on a motion Indefinitely to
postpone. The motion indefinitely to
postpone lost, ayes 19, to 20 noes,
showing that the friends or the bill
could muster not more than two short
or the constitutional majority neces
sary to pass the bill. The bill will
remain in tho hands of the committee
according tq the present programme,
as the committee is friendly.
There are Beveral Senate member,
who have declared that they believe
the proper procedure against Schlvely
is by Impeachment, that , he , should
have a rair trial and a day in court,
but that if on Impeachment a con
clusive showing of guilt is made
against him and the Senate then fails
to impeach, they will support the
Palmer bill and abolish the office.
Session May Last for Months.
One Important effect of the action
by the Legislature today Is the post
ponement of the end of the session to
an indefinite date.
Estimates expressed In debate placed
the length of the session from three
weeks to three months, and one of the
first moves made after it became
known that impeachment would pre
vail as the course of action was the
increase by the Senate or the appro
priation of $12,000 passed by the House
for legislative expenses to the sum of
$40,000. The House Just before ad
journment today concurred In this
amendment.

stealing cattle in that vicinity and H.
Rolfe, one of the cattlemen, who has
suffered heavily at their hands, with one
of his men, was on the lookout Thurs

got away and so I came down to swear
out a warrant for him," he said In the
District Attorney's office yesterday morn
ing. A John Doe warrant was issued
and was placed In the hands of officers
yesterday morning. A search of hospi
tals and physicians' offices is being made
