$180 TAKEN FROM CORSET
Relatives of Martha Metcalf Say

Him Two Claims In.
NEWPORT. Or.. July 31. (Special)
Trouble among- the different tribes
on the Silets Indian reservation la
pected to result from the double murder
and suicide which occurred at fillets on
Saturday morning. When Martha.
Louie Metcalf. the Indian woman mur
dered by Bob Felix, was picked up
from a pool of blood by Dr. Clauslns,
the agency physician, he found a purse
containing; $180 secreted In her corset.
Now the purse has disappeared with
its contents and trouble Is expected.
The Metcalf woman was shot by Bob
Felix, with whom she had been living;.
Now the members of the tribe to which
Bob Felix belonged say that the woman
carried Bob's money. Marthas rela
tlves. members of another tribe, say
the money was Martha's own and de
manded it. The disappearance of the
money has put a phase on the situation
which Is at least disquieting. The only
thins; known Is that the money was
stolen from the corpse and the thief.
whoever be or she may be, la keeping
quiet.
There was but one witness of the
tragedy of Saturday. This was Mrs.
John Spencer, the wife of one of the
victims. At the inquest Mrs. Spencer

stayed about half an hour, but the
Metcalf woman did not want to return
tlvated by the bibulous Spencer. Wh(fl
the gate was reached Spencer took the
baskets out of Bob's wagon after Mrs
Metcalf had said she would stay.
Felix at once demanded that Spencer
put the baskets back in the wagon, but
the Intoxicated man paid no attention
to him. whereupon Felix drew a .38
caliber revolver and shot him through
the head, killing him instantly. Mrs.
Metcalf at once exclaimed. "You kill
man for nothing!" whereupon Felix
turned his revolver upon her and fired
twice, both bullets taking effect, th
second piercing her heart. As Felix
turned to shoot Mrs. Spencer, she says
she pleaded with him. saying: "Don't
shoot me. Bob. I'm your friend." At
that, she says, he drove off to his camp
a mile away, where he shot himself
through the head.
Mrs. Spencer quickly staggered to
the agency in an Intoxicated condition
and told of the killing. At first she
was not believed, but it was not long
before other Indians brought in an
account of the tragedy. Coroner Carter
soon arrived on the scene and held an
inquest, at which the facta of the kill
ing were brought to light.
Knott C. Egbert, the Indian agent In
charge, disclaims all responsibility for
the conditions existing among the
Indians previous to the murder. The
drinking and the neglect of obedience
to the marriage laws, he says he cannot
control, as his Jurisdiction does not
extend to the deeded farms upon which
all the principals In the tragedy live.
A condition of drunkenness and lm
moralitr has been in existence for some
time among the Indians, according to
the better class of the redmen. who are
anxious that the Government put
some stop to the present state by send
ing In officers with authority to act
wherever the Indians live, on the
agency ground or on deeded farms.

Pittock Peak was named. There now
being only enough provisions left for
the return, the party started back on
July 16, with 60 pounds each, and made
two days' Journey in one.
Return Journey Speedy.
The last 13 miles of the glacier was
made In one day, in a pouring rain.
Camp Rodney was reached late July 18,
and the whole party started down the
river In the boat July 19. The Journey
to the mouth of the Chulitna. which
ascend, was made In four hours. Two
days were lost at Talkeetna on account
of bad weather, but on July 22 the
party ran down 65 miles of the Susitna
to Susitna Station In 9 hours, coming
Into Seward by way of Turnagain Arm
and the Alaska Northern. Cool and
Ridley arrived Thursday, and I and
Rojec got here last night. Cool and
Ridley left on the .Alameda for Seattle
this morning. I and Rojec will go on
the Bertha tomorrow, by way of the
Inside passage, to secure more pictures.
Although the expedition failed to
reach the summit. It cannot be regard
ed as a failure. A wonderful set of
pictures was secured. The mountain
wax Dhotographed from points never
before visited.
Cook's Story Utterly Disproved.
The utter impossibility of Dr Cook's
story was demonstrates Deyona a
doubt. The expedition also disproved
the statement attributed to Tom Lloyd
that the glaciers cannot De traveiea
without snowshoes. The entire length of
Ruth Glacier was traversed without
snowsobes.
The Packer Brown expedition was
seen several times. One member had
a narrow escape from death In a cre
vasse. When last seen. July 12. they
were still making a heroic struggle,
but were short of provisions.
The ascent of McKinley from this
side Is such a tremendous undertaking
that It was impossible with the means
at the command of the Mazama expedi
tion.
I am confident that the mountain
can be climbed from this side and I
shall endeavor to organise an expedi
tion on a larger scale for next year.

him of money when conducting a collec
tion agency in Glendale, and then ran
away with his wife.
McDonald and Mrs. Clement, although

ent apartments. Both assert that the
charge against McDonald is trumped up.
Mrs. Clement lays all the trouble to
her brother-in-law, who, she says.

Question Is Whether Corporation
Entering Into Contract to Carry
Passengers Can Alter Rates
Without Due Notice.
VANCOUVER, Wash.. July 31. (Spe
claL) Preliminary steps to determine
whether a corporation entering into
contract to carry passengers for a cer
tain price' for a certain length of time
can break the agreement at will, with
out any notification whatever, will be
started tomorrow at the regular meet
lng of the County Commissioners.
Before May 1, 1907, the ferry rate for
foot passengers crossing the Columbia
River to Hayden Island on the ferry
owned by the Portland Railway, Light
Power Company was 5 cents. The
County Commissioners. A. A. Quarn
berg, Robert Lowe and J. C. Eddings,
at that time reduced the entire traffic
sheet, from six-horse teams down to
foot passengers. Foot passengers were
given a rate of 3 cents one way or
5 cents round trip, on the ferry.
The traction company was notified
and without protest It accepted the re
duction and It went Into effect May
1907. The license waa paid for six
months. The second time it was
granted for six months, the third time
for one year, which expired January
1. 1910. At that time the company was
granted a contract for three years, at
the same rates. The company paid tor
the license and accepted the rate,
Each time It applied for a license to
operate the ferry it asked for five
years, but this was never granted.
The traction company advertised
new traffic schedv.le to go Into effect
July 26, 1910, and the rat e was en
forced. The County Commissioners
were not notified and no agreement
was made with them lor the traction
company to raise the ferry rate.
The new rate was advertised, accord
lng to law, and was approved by the
Interstate Commerce Commission, and
no protests were filed.
That the county has a right to enter
Into a contract to regulate the price
charged by transportation companies
Is the opinion of J. P. Stapleton, County
Attorney. "The County has the right.
if the law covering that is constitu
tlonal," he said -today.
The outcome will be watched with
keen interest by thousands who travel
between Vancouver and Portland.
STRIKE MAY TIE UP ROAD
Electric Line Refuses Demands of
Electricians' Union.
CHICO, Cal., July 31. (Special.)
The entire system of the Northern
Electric Railway will be tied up by a
strike, if efforts now on foot succeed.
The company has failed to grant a rise
In wages to linemen employed by It
and they were ordered out by the elec
trical Workers' union. This prevents
the completion of the double-track
work under way In Sacramento.
The company still has not granted
the rise and the union's next step will
be the ordering out of all men em
ployed In the electric sub-stations,
through which power is supplied to the
system at various .points. This would
prevent the running of streetcars in
Chlco, Marysvllle and Yuba City and
Interurban lines between those places
and Orovllle, Sacramento and Hamil
ton City. '
The company at present employs only
five linemen. -Some time ago notice
was given by the union that these must
be paid 34 per day for eight hours, in
stead of $2.50, but the demand was not
met. As Chlco is the headquarters of
the Northern Electric Company, the
Electrical Workers' Union has sent
Frank Llnder here to manage the
strike. The demands of the union were
granted by the Central California Trac
tion Company and the Sacramento
Street Railway Company.

BELL-TOPS CAUSE REVOLT
Patrolmen Sign Petition to Get Rid

The "bell-top" cap now worn by every

of no little complaint from the men in
the ranks.
A petition already bearing the names
of more than 75 per cent of the men is
now being circulated, to be presented to
those "higher up" for consideration.
The petition Is an upshot of several in

Curing Catarrh
Accept Our Advice and Try
this Remedy at Our Risk
Catarrh is a disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane is,
one may say, the interior lining: of the
body. Catarrh therefore may exist la
any part of the system.
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane. Inflammation
and congestion are produced and na
ture fails to throw off the accumulated
poisons. The organ which has been
afflicted ceases to perform its proper
function as nature intended it should.
The result is, complication upon com
plication, which may lead to other even
more serious afflictions.
We honestly believe Rexall Mucu
Tone will do wonders toward overcoming-
catarrh. It is made from the pre
scription of an eminent physician who
made a long study of catarrh, and his
great success with this remedy was an
enviable one.
We want you if you are a sufferer
from catarrh in any . form, to give
Rexall Mucu-Tone a thorough trial.
Use it with regularity and persistency
for a reasonable time, then if you are
not- satisfied, come back and tell us,
and without question or formality we
will hand back to you every cent you
paid us. This is certainly the fairest
offer that any one could make and
should attest our sincerity of purpose.
