BURGLARS STEAL FOOD EVERY ItOOM JIAXSACKED IX QUEST FOR PROPERTY. Roast, Roll of Butter and Two Eggs Not Overlooked Jewels and Bric-a-brac Stolen. Entering the home of Clarence D. Kellogg, at 8 East Ninth street North, Saturday night between 7:30 and 9 o'clock, burglars secured $4 In money and jewels valued at $200, took pic tures and bric-a-brac of sentimental worth to their owners, ransacked the house, turned the furniture topsy turvy and before leaving opened every door in the dwelling. Mr. Kellogg is chief engineer of the Open River Transportation Company and was on the steamer J. N. Teal in the Upper Columbia. His wife and 13-year-old son had gone" out for an hour and a half. The thieves gained entrance by breaking the glass panel in the kitchen door. Before this they broke a win dow In the pantry and entered it first. The door was locked and they were unable to reach other rooms. Leav ing the pantry, the burglars, who are thought to have numbered three, went to the kitchen door and, after break ing the glass, turned the key from the inside. All the lids were lifted from the stove every box was opened.. Even the bread box was opened and its contents were taken. A roast, which Mrs. Kel logg had purchased for Sunday din ner, was stolen, as also were a roll of butter and two eggs. These were placed on the back stoop of a neigh boring house. The attention of the burglars was next directed to the dining-room. A cut mince pie and several pieces of angel food cake were eaten. The contents of a decanter of wine were drained to the last drop. The bedrooms were ransacked. Bedclothes were thrown on the floor, drawers were taken out and their contents scattered.

MOOR E HAS CHANGE Fate of Banker Depends on Court's Decision. QUASH MOTION PENDING Defense Contends 'Woman's Draft Was Xot Entered or Collected. State to Assail Argument. Case May End Tuesday. Walter H. Moore, ex-president of the wrecked Oregon Trust & Savings Bank, today may secure freedom from the in dictment on which the state U asking a conviction alleging that he received de posits knowing the institution was in solvent. Should Jndge Bronaugh sustain the motion made by Attorney Fulton and in struct the jury to return a verdict of not guilty, the case would be concluded without forcing the defense to place wit nesses on the stand. 'The prosecution is very confident, however, that the court will overrule the motion and proceed with the trial. Thie are a number of other indictments pending against Mr. Moore charging similar offenses. Contending that deposits received by employes of the bank after closing of the institution the day preceding its sus pension, had been refunded by the re ceiver, and that the draft deposited by Minnie Mitchell had not been entered on the books or collected by the receiver. Attorney Fulton argued that Moore was not guilty of the fraud charged. Deputy District Attorney Fitzgerald to day will submit a lengthy argument as sailing the position of counsel for the defense on the liability imposed on the bank In receiving Minnie Mitchell's draft. Attorney Fulton and Mr. Moore passed Sunday in consultation. Attorney Fulton expressed great confidence in the sound ness of the legal point upon which Judge Bronaugh will pass. Should the court refuse to instruct the Jury to acquit Moore Attorney Fulton expects to conclude evi dence for the defense by Tuesday night or sooner. The decision to be handed down by the court will be of great interest as it will establish ownership of drafts that have been deposited in a bank. In the case of the Minnie Mitchell draft, it was asserted by Receiver Devlin that Minnie Mitchell stopped payment of the paper by telegraph. The defense contends that if the bank owned the draft after deposit. Its payment could not have been inter fered with in this way, and if it still belonged to Minnie Mitchell, after being deposited in the bank, then it was a trust fund, and not a deposit. PEACOCK MAY GO FREE SECOXD TRIAIj XOT PROBABLE, SAYS ATTORXEY. Testimony of Girl Accepted as Dying Statement Deemed Improper by Supreme Court. In the opinion of John Manning, of thjs city, attorney for Dr. Fred Peacock, of Cathlamet, Wahkiakum County, "Wash., who was convicted a year ago of manslaughter in connection with the death of Madeline Longtaine, a young girl, of that place, December 10, 1908, and which conviction was set aside by the Washington Supreme Court Saturday, will not be prosecuted again. According to Mr. Manning, the prin cipal evidence of the prosecution was declared improper by the Supreme Court and without it a conviction could not be hoped for. The alleged improper evidence was a typewritten statement made by the girl some days before her death when she believed she would recover. Later, when she realized she was about to die, the statement was declared by her to be true and was introduced in evidence as her "dying statement." This was de clared by the court "improper," as it was not made in full just before her death. "The cost to the county would be too great to attempt another conviction," said Mr. Manning. "The statement was the only important evidence the prosecu tion had, and it was on it that the con viction was secured. I am inclined to think there will be no further attempt to push the case against Dr. Peacock. In addition to the legal aspects of the case, sentiment, formerly against Dr. Peacock, has changed greatly. Now it is more in his favor." At the time of the arrest of Dr. Pea cock, late in 1908, the case was a sensa tional one. The entire county was much The True Measure of Growth and Prosperity of a life insurance company is shown by the amount of increase in premium income year hv vear.
