Snippers say that the company Is ac

which Is the same rate secured for han
dling; It less than 1000 miles on the Portland-Nan
Francisco route, and cargo for
the Pacific Coast being handled on tar
iffs that do not allow a profit, the Hnr
rlman Interests are falling behind and
that the business will not show a clear
sheet, much lesa a gain.
It Is also argued that with strong com
petition from Puaet Sound and the fnct
two rail lines haul there from the In
terior, there la no longer an incentive
for the Harlman rail tnteresta to Insist
on a large Oriental fleet as nn outlet
from the port for cereals and their
products. and that a three-steamer
schedule will fill the requirements. There
are no prnili held out that a fourth
Teasel will be permanently added and
so far as can be ascertained no negotia
tions have been opened for the charter
of one.
Hut the disinclination of the Harriman
Interests to provide more tonnage will
not work a matrriul hardship if the W.
terhouse fleet la operated on a regular
schedule. It Is rumored that the latter
lias referred to the Andrew Weir In
terests a proposal to enter the Portland
field strongly by accepting cargo In the
orient for delivery here. So far the
TVaterhouae liners have confined their
eperations solely to loading; here, coming
In ballast after calling at Puget Sound
points, but with a reduction In the Har
riman tonnage It Is believed thst they
sell! offer stronger Inducements for con
signee to patronise their service on
promises of regular sailings.

Connell aa George H. Hamilton, a no
torious Eastern counterfeiter, the lead
er of the Klamath Falls duo yesterday
confessed to his criminal record and
announced his Intention of pleading
guilty to the charges against him. He
was arrested by the City Marshal of
Klamath Falls and brought to Portland
by United Slates Deputy Marshal Hum
mersly. The prisoner was known as George
Duffy while making and passing spuri

officer, who hailed the prlspner by his
right name and asked him when he
was let out of Leavenworth Prison.
Hamilton was sent to prison from
Peru, Ind.. in 1908, after being con
vlcted of making and passing counter
felt money, and was discharged .from
the prison last August. He Immediately
came to the Coast, and after attempt
inr to get started again at San Fran

circulating- the coins. They chose Klam

used their room for preparing molds
for both halves and dollars. Their
eaulDment was seized by the officer.
together with 38 pieces of bad money.
"It seems to be an Impossibility for
counterfeiters to refrain from working
at the business." said Mr. Connell yes
terday. "As soon as they get out or
prison they hunt up a field which to
their understanding appears to be safe
for circulating the money, buy a
Quarter's worth of plaster of Paris ana
get to work. We knew that Hamilton
had come to the Coast, and I waa mor
ally certain he had gone back to work
as soon as I heard of the case. The offi
cers of Klamath Falls performed a
creditable piece of work in capturln
the man.'
Substantiating the theory of the
Secret Service agent that counterfeit
ers alwavs return to the "easy money
method of earning a living. Federal
officers were Informed yesterday of
the arrest of Frank Watson, of Port
land, made In L'tali. Watson was re
leased September 15 from McNeill's Isl
and, where he had served a term upon
a conviction in the Oregon courts.
Watson went direct to Utah and on
October IS wss arrested as a member
of a gang of counterfeiters.
