Methods Proves
Attractive to East.
CHICAGO. April 7. (Special.) The
managers of Northwestern and West
ern railroads are jubilant over the
Spring movement of colonists ipto all
the territory west of the Rocky Moun-
alns from the Canadian border to the
-.Mexican line.
Although official figures' have not
been prepared regarding the move
ment of people seeking homes in a new
country, it is confidently stated that
the number will exceed that of last
year, when all records were broken.
Statistics to Wait.
No statistics will be prepared until
the Bprtng movement Is over, which
will be about April 15, or possibly
April 30. Through all the gateways,
however, the reports show that there
has been up to date a steady stream
of colonists moving into the Northwest
and the Far West.
The movement has been heavy over
all the Hill lines and also over all. of
.the Harrlman lines. Thus far the in
creases in the colonist movement over
that of last year have been greater to
the Northwest and what might be
called the Middle Northwest than to
California.
It is1 stated also that the colonist move
ment has been especially heavy in Mon
tana, Utah and Idaho, the increase over
laet year up to the present time being
many thousands.
Campaign Bearing Krnlt.
The opening of large acreage of irri
gated lands and the impetus given to dry
farming through the educational methods
pursued by the railroads and by commer
cial organizations 19 bearing abundant
fruit. , Regarding the colonist movement
which was begun on a $33 rate on March
1, P. S. u.tis, passenger traffic manager
of the Burlington road, said:
"If the movement keeps up the remain
der of the period us it has thus far,
records will be broken. The increases to
the Northwest and to Montana, and Utah
have been especially marked. The inqui
ries which have been received indicate
that many more thousands will seek new
homes In that territory before the end of
the Spring movement."
W. B. Kniskern, passenger traffic man
ager for the Northwestern, which line in
itiates a great deal of the colonist move
ment going over the Harrlman lines wost
of Omaha, said that the California and
Lower Oregon movement had been espe
cially heavy up to date.

Havi
ated Bond Issues Must
Old Parties' Support.
MILWAUKBH, Wis-., April 7. (Special.)
A statistical fiend discovered today one
grain of comfort for the adherents of old
parties in the Milwaukee Socialist victory.
The Socialists, while electing 21 out of
35 Aldermen, will not be able to pass
any important bond issue without the
support of the old "party members. The
City Charter provides that it requires
a three-quarters vote of the City Coun
cil to order a poputar election ' on the
issuance of bonds, and Socialists need 27
Aldermen to carry out any euch pro
vision. 'The old parties, it now appears, are
likely to carry out a plan of combina
tion, by which the Republican and Demo
cratic Aldermen will unite as a single
party, an anti-Socialist party, to defeat
any measures that require more than a
majority of the county.
The old parties, it is probable also,
will not name independent candidates
for president of the Common Council but
will unite on Cornelius Corcoran, the
present president, a Democrat who, by
reason of the continued absence of Mayor
Rose, was acting Mayor most of the last
two years.
TRIO UMDER TRAIN; UNHURT

The Yacolt passenger train had Just

gage truck had been stopped by the mes
senger, E. Reeves, at the baggage-car

Portland came in on the first track. The
messenger saw the truck was going to
be struck, so dropped the handle and es
caped. The children were unable to get
away. The truck was demolished.

AGREEMENT NOT SPECIFIC
Witness Before" Investigating Com
mittee Says He Can Make Only
"Rough Estimate" of Re
wards He Received. .
WASHINGTON, April 7. Testifying that
he had received in checks from $600 to
J1009 from the Merchant Marine League
of the United States to cover expenses
in speechmaking trips, ex-Representative
Joseph T. McCleary. of Minnesota, once
second assistant Postmaster-General, oc
cupied the witness stand at today's ses
sion of the House ship subsidy investiga
tion committee.
Besides the special committee there
was an array of individuals interested in
the legislation.
McCleary obtained permission to correct
the record of his previous testimony, say
ing that instead of the amounts he had
received from the league "not equalling
the expenses." he wished to say that they
did not materially exceed his expenses.
Expenses-' All Paid.
Garrett of Tennessee (Dera.) for the
committee questioned him .closely as to
this.
McCleary explained he always accepted
the league's invitation to make addresses
if he could get away at the time: that
money not being a material consideration,
he had not ' kept a memorandum; that
sometimes months passed without his re
ceiving any money from the league; that
"they simply gave me what they thought
fully covered my expenses."
He said that he had no knowledge of
any other body, similar to the Merchant
Marine League, spending money in that
way.
, "Hough Estimate" Made.
'Sometimes there would be months
without my reimbursement for expenses,
and then would come a check for a large
amount, Mr. McCleary said.
"Can you roughly estimate what has
been paid you?" asked Representative
Garrett.
"Such an estimate would have to be
very - rough, the witness replied. "I
should say between $600 and $1000. I have
been making these addresses about 15
months. Some of the trips have been
long."
"Will you file a statement of amounts
you have received? Mr. Garrett asked.
No Memoranda Kept.
"I don't believe I could," the witness
replied. 1 kept no memorandum. In
one instance I got $500. Then I had not
received anything from them for a long
time."
"ro you own any stock in any shipping
concern?" Mr. Garrett asked.
"I am sorry to say that I do not. I
have no interest other than any American
has. I never received, a dollar knowingly
from arybody having any such Interest."
Penton will testify at tomorrow's ses
sion of the committee.

Pathetic Picture Drawn in New York
Court Rumor Saves Hughes
From Being Thaw Attorney. '
NEW YORK, April 7. Mrs. Mary Cop
ley Thaw, on the witness stand today,
drew a touching picture of the plight of
an aged woman, swayed by conflicting
advice and at her wits' end to save an
erratic- son, who had committed a sen
sational murder. 0 "
"I was in Egyptian darkness." said
Mrs. Thaw under cross-examination in
Clifford W. Hartridge's suit to recover
$93,000 counsel fees and disbursements in
defending Harry Thaw for the murder of
Stanford White.
"When I reached New York after
Harry's unfortunate affair, I was. in
doubt whether to have Harry sent to an
insane asylum a decent insane asylum,
not Matteawan or have him stand trial.
I was a sick, old woman and not so
keen."
The name of Governor Hughes ap
peared in one letter read to Mrs. Thaw
and she was asked if she was opposed to
the employment of Governor Hughes in
her son's case.
No," Mrs. Thaw replied. "I was not
opposed to the employment of Governor
Hughes personally, but it was rumored
he might be made Governor and I did not
want politics mixed up in any way in
Harry's case."
PAY SMALL; CARRIERS QUIT
Rural Routes About Walla "Walla,
May Discontinue for Lack of Men.
WALIA- WALLA, Wash., April 7. (Spe
cial.) Rural mail delivery out of Walla
Waila is seriously threatened by the small
remuneration given the employes of Uncle
Sam, and unless there Is an increase in
salary soon It looks as if there would
be a discontinuation of several of the
routes leading out from the city.
Since November 1, four men have re
signed, and there are, It Is said, more
who will follow. The regulations of the
service provide that if there .1 s a vacancy
on any route for a month, that route
shall be discontinued.
At present one man is carrying the mail
only until another man can be secured.
And this is not a likelihood. The position
pays but $39 a month, although it takes
but half i- man's time.
$5000 LOST; $4193 FOUND
Diligence of Dcadletter Office Re
turns Cash to Senders.
WASHINGTON", April 7. During "March
more than $5000 went astray in the mails
and through the diligence of the dead let
ter office $4193 of it was returned to the
senders.
More than 1,000,000 pieces of mail matter
went to the dead letter office during that
month because they did not bear return
directions. That number was nearly
80.000 more than in the corresponding
month in 1909.
In these figures Postmaster-General
Hitchcock finds added arguments to sup
port his contention that no legislation
should be enacted that would stop the
Government from printing return cards
on its stamped envelopes.

The secretary of the company, B. R.
Johnston, of Pittsburg, was not named
in the indictments. He appeared as the
principal witness for the Government and
may, it is said, be granted immunity.
The indictment sets forth that the com
pany has from the beginning acted as a
selling agency and has prevented compe
tition, 'by persuading and Inducing cor
porations, partnerships and individuals in
the window glass trade to enter Into con
tract with the agency to sell their entire
outputs of hand-blown window glass,'
and that 4'the defendants were able ' to
establish, fix and maintain arbitrary, un
reasonable and non-competitive prices for
window glass, greatly in excess of prices
that would prevail if said defendants had
not engaged in unlawful conspiracy.'
It is charged when glass-blowing con
cerns declined to enter such agreements,
the defendants, leased the factories with
the purpose of monopolizing trade and re
straining interstate commerce.
Monopoly -of Trade Sought.

is paid in. furing the four-day inquisi
tion, testimony was to the effect that the
company had cleared $150,000 above all
expenses. The companies allowed by the
alleged agreement to sell only to the
Imperial Company number 66, represent
ing a capitalization of between $7,000,000
and $8,000,000. Of these 66 companies, it
was testified that 12 were kept closed, the
idleness involving an expense of $137,000
a year.
District Attorney Jordan said tonight
that the price of window glass had in
creased about 60 per cent since the in
corporation of the Imperial Window Glass
Company.

Icy, stony stares will hereafter be
the greetings of pretty Seattle High
School girls who attend dances at the
University of Washington. These frigid
glances will come from the fair co-eds
who have declared war upon the school

"It's a shame,' one fair co-ed of the

claimed. "Here we are. the cream of
the " 'varsity, and to think that these
little high schools have the audacity
to attend our dances and monopolize
everything that looks like a man.
Isn't it awful?"
"We have decided to cut and snub
any high school girl who attends any
varsity function in the future," was
the declaration.
"We're going to freeze them out.
They are nice young things and all
that, but they have no right to come
out here and have a crowd hovering
about them to our mortification. We

ture." PORTLAND STUDENT ELOPE

MOUNTAIN MURDER REVIVED
Woman Positive Tamalpals Victim
Was Miss Jensen.
DENVER, April 7. "I now feel cer
tain that Ellen Jensen was tne woman
who was murdered on Mount Tamal
pals and that the woman who said she
was Ellen Jensen and claimed the
girl's crunk at the San Francisco ware
house was Instructed to go there sim
ply to avert suspicion," said Mrs. Anna
Lytell, head of the Young Women's
Friendly Club of Denver, today.
"I knew Miss Jensen well and have
written many letters and made every
effort to find her in San Francisco and
elsewhere. Some of the letters have
been returned unopened and others
have not been returned."
The theory of Mrs. Lytell is that the
murderer either took Miss Jensen's
trunk check off her body after the
crime or that he obtained it from
among her effects and sent a woman
to secure the trunk.

000 and $100,000.
Two fishermen came upon the bodies
today. They appeared toliave been dead
several weeks. Clutched tightly in the
hand of one man was a revolver, contain
ing two empty shells. Authorities say
he may have shot his brother and then
turned the gun upon himself.
Attempts had been made to remove all
from their clothing ail marks that would
establish identity. A postcard addressed
to Nels Olson was found In a coat pocket.
The pocket also contained advertisements
from several money-lenders.
The Olsons are said to be retired farm
ers. They formerly operated a broker
age office in Sylvia, Kan., two sisters and
a son-in-law of one of the men reside
there. The brokers registered at the
Board ' of Trade here from Landsberg,
Kan. .
