Members of Sailors' Society t Aber
deen Tells of Hunting Trip He
Once Took With Gohl Offer .
to Gamble Is Refused.
ABER23EKX. Wash., Feb. 8. (Spe
cialsThat the Sailors Union of the Pa
cific Coaat wlli not stand behind "Wil
liam Gohl. Its local a -rent charged with
murder. Is the statement today of an ex
eailor now employed in this city today
If thjs statement should prove true,
the strongest prop which Gohl has relied
upon In his defense has been taken from
him.. because it was thLs source that he is
credited with relying upon for his finan
cial help.
"I do not believe the SoiloW Union
will spend a dollar in defense of Gohl,"
paid -the ex-seaman. "I was a member of
the union for many years, and I know It
1 not its policy to spend money in de
fending members charged with crime. It
would establish a precedent which might
result In wholesale expenditure of the
funds which are supposed to be for the
benefit of injured sailors or their fam
ilies. The local branch may appropriate
from its funds, but it is very improbable
that the general union will take a hand."
Fund Is Thus Cut Short.
This, it is admitted, would be a death
Mow to the securing either of Xelphin M.
TJelmas, or Clarence J. Darrow. In case
either one is secured it is stated that
Darrow is the more likely selection.
The same sailor also tells of a trip
made down the bay with Gohl a few
years ago.
"I was then a sail6r," he said, "and
had just been paid off. getting quite a
um of money. The fact was known to
Gohl. who asked me to accompany him on
a hunting trip, planning to - spend the
night at the cabin of a man known as
Iutch. On reaching the cabin. Gohl was
surprised to "find r3utc"h at home, saying
he thought Dutch was going to Aberdeen.
Revolver Carelessly Exposed.
"During the evening Gohl several times
ssked me to play poker for money, but
I refused and during the conversation
pulled my handkerchief from my pocket
exposing a revolver which I carried. Gohl
expressed surprise, and I, thinking noth
ing of It, told ' him it was natural to
carry a grin in spending a night in a
place like that. After that we went to
bed and the next morning returned to
Aberdeen.'
Searchers-are still continuing the hunt

being continued in the old records of tlie

sBy various means, some explained, some
half understood and others wrapped
wholly in mystery. 33 men are known to
have gone to their death in the waters
"surrounding Aberdeen during . .the past
4ivc years.
These deaths have been constantly oc
curring since the Fall of 1905, with the
exception of June, July, August and Sep
tember, 11(07, when the better element of
this city raised a great hue and cry ;
secret service men were reported in the
city and outside newspapers sent special
correspondents, giving the "floater fleet"
wide publicity. The absence of deaths
continued until the popular remonstrance
subsided, when they again have come
into prominence, the last victim being
recorded January 5 of this year.

UNIFORM CODE DESIRED
RAILROAD MEX AND SHIPPERS
MEET AT SALBM.
"Average - Agreement" Clause Re
ceives Most Attention and Views
Are Widely Different.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 8. (Special.)
The "average agreement" clause re
ceived perhaps a little more attention
than any othr phase of the subject at
the hearing before the Railroad Com
mission today in the matter of the
proposed uniform "demurrage-'code.
. Attorneys J. B. Kerr, W. W. Cotton'
and others todk the position that the
proposed "average agreement" would
operate to favor the large shipper at
the expense of the smaller, and would
not Increase the car- efficiency ;of the
carriers The opposite view was taken
by soma of . the shippers,, including
Oeorge Estes, representing the. Port
land Fuel Dealers! Association, which
uses about 12,000 cars a year.
It was 'contended by some of the
railroad attorneys that, under the Ore
gon law creating the Railroad Com
mission, the uniform code proposed by
the National Association, of Railway
Commissioners cannot be adopted by
the Oregon Commission, as there are
too many points that conflict. It is
believed, however, that the Commis
sion will make such changes as are
necessary and adopt a code that will
conform as nearly as possible to the
proposed uniform code, whicti already
has been adopted by Kentucky and In
diana and is being considered "by
various other states. i
Shippers and carriers represented at
the hearing today agreed that uniform
rules were desirable, the only question
being as to the probable effect of some
of the proposed regulations.
Every important railroad and ship
ping interest were represented at the
meeting.

Joseph J. Ryan, son of Thomas Fortune
Ryan, of New York, and his bride, left
Hotel Green today and are on their way
East, the young man to enter a petition
In person, as he has done many times by
wire, for paternal forgiveness for his
marriage to Miss Fanny Morse, which so
far has not been granted.
ITp to yesterday the anxiety of the
youthful bridegroom was not only filial
but financial, but a letter from his mother
came In answer to importunate telegrams,
well filled with yellow-back bills and he
Immediately settled accounts and pre
pared to leave.
The foundation for this beautiful, but
uncomfortahle, romance was laid a
month ago when young Ryan, with the
impetuousity which his years and emo
tional state begot, eloped with Miss Fan
nie Morse, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Alexander Porter Morse, of Washington.
D. C.
Here they began to be shy on ready
money. Hence, young Mr. Ryan wired to
the elder Mr. Ryan for funds, and the
answer came.- There was not a day that
the happy, but anxious, young man did
not dispatch a. telegram to the author
of his being as well as of hie troubles, but
whejj the ample supply of cash came
there was not a line of forgiveness.
Although he and his bride were having
such a delightful time, without any one
to bother them, Mr. Ryan, Jr., thought
the situation was so urgent that he had
better hurry back to New York and pre
sent himself and his cause to his obdurate
father.

Jurisdiction Over Baker's Bay
Traps Settled.
ACTION ONLY TEMPORARY
Though Not Binding' on .Either
Washington or Oregon, Agree
ment ATI 1 1 Obviate Controversy
Over License Collection.
ASTORIA, Or., Feb. 8. (Special.)
The question of jurisdiction over the
Bak&rs Bay fishtraps, a matter that
has been in controversy ever since the
recent decision : of the United States
Supreme Court establishing the boun
dary line between! the two states, was
amicably adjusted- today. ...
f An agreement, signed by Pish Commissioner-Riseland.
of Washington, and
Fish Warden- McAllister, of Oregon.
while, of course, only of a temporary
nature and not binding upon the states,
will obviate any control pthy between
the fisheries departments over the col
lection qflicenses from traps in that
part of the river.
The agreement was the result of a
meeting held in Chinook today between
Commissioner Riseland, Deputy Com
missioner White, Representative Burke
ami Senator McGowan, representing
Washington, and Warden McAllister,
Deputy Rathbun and Assistant Attorney-General
Vanwinkle, representing
Oregon. Practically all trapmen in
terested were also present, and acr
quiesced in tile action of the officials.
The court decision was that the
boundary line runs north of Sand
Island, but as the line had nefer been
definitely fixed by surveys made by the
two states, there were in the neighbor-
hiiood of 100 fish traps over which each
state claimed jurisdiction and the right
to collect licenses.
The agreement Is that the channel
designated by the United States Gov
ernment surveys for the passage, of
boats plying to and from Ilwaco, north
of Sand Island, shall be considered as
the boundary line between the two
states until some further designation
of the line can or may be made. This
agreement gives Oregon jurisdiction
over several of the disputed fish traps
and from which the state has never be
fore collected licenses.
- It will also forbid the possibility of
any friction between the fisheries de
partments over the collection of trap
licenses, pending the making of proper
surveys to specifically locate the boun
dary line, which will have to be au
thorized by the Legislature of the two
states.

it is said the company will have $1,500,

stock and the sale of bonds.
The first road to be built will be
from Albany to Sweet Home, which is
situated on the South Santiam River,
30 miles southwest of Albany. Two
routes are under consideration, one by
way of Lebanon and thence up the South
iSantiam River, and the other by way of
Brownsville. Crawfordsville and Hol
ley. In case the Lebanon route to
Sweet Home is selected, it is probable
a second line will be built to Holley
by way of Brownsville and Crawfords
ville. Until the Albany-Swet Home j-oad is
completed the company will devote its
energies entirely to that project.
When that line is in actual operation
the company will consider the con
struction of other lines in different di
rections from Albany. It is planned
to tap country now without transpor
tation facilities.

A GREAT CURSE OF MODERN LIFE
There is no more serious danger to
health than, the presence of too much
uric acid in the body. It is the duty
of the kidneys to rid the system of
uric poisons as fast as they accumulate.
When the kidneys fall to do this work
thoroughly, uric acid attacks begin,
first in one part, then in another.
The pause of these attacks is so like
ly to be mistaken, even by a doctor,
that it is well to post yourself on the
subject. If uric acid troubles are
recognized in the beginning, it is easy
to cure' the weakened kidneys with
Doan's Kidney Pills, and when the
kidneys are working right again, the
uric acid will be driven off as fast as
it gathers in the urine.
It is dangerous to neglect sick kid
neys. -It leaves the uric acid free; to
attack and damage every organ of the
body. The blood gets so thick with
waste matter that it moves slowly, the
heart beats queerly, the veins and ar
teries harden; uric acid crystals are de
posited in muscles and Joints, and are

The pains from uric acid attacks are
characteristic: backache, sciatica, mus
cular or articular rheumatism, neural
gia, lumbago, pains through the hips
and groin, headache and nervous dis
orders. When sediment appears in the
urine and you begin to feel odd twinges
of pain, the kidneys are not doing their
duty and treatment with Doan's Kidney
Pills should be begun at once. 'What
this remedy has done for others It will
do for you.
PORTUNO PROOF.
H. J. Young, 290 Morrison St., Port
land, Or., eays: "I have had no occa
sion to use a remedy for my kidneys
since Doan's Kidney Pills cured me
some years ago. At that time I was
bothered by backache which had been
present for some time, always being
more severe when I contracted a cold.
Doan's Kidney Pills, which I procured
at the Laue-Davls Drug Co., gave me
speedy relief, and there has not been
the slightest symptom of the trouble
since. I feel that this lasting benefit
is sufficient proof of the curative
qualities of Doan's Kidney pills."
