I.loTil It. wilkins. wasted for the
order of Lou L. Winters early Sunday
noralig, was seen yesterday morning
at Vancouver. Wash., where he visited
the e trice of the Northern Express
(omninr and asked to have a checlc
for 971 cashed.
Wilkins entered the express of flee a
little after S o'clock and made himself
known to H- D. Sanders, an employe of
the eomnany. who lives at SOU East
Twenty-eiaThth street. Sooth. He pre.
seated a railroad Identification card
and told Mr. Sanders that he wanted a
' money order Mr. Sanders told him that
he would show the check sad the card
to S. J. Miller, ticket agent, this
Mil kins In sneer refnsed.
Sanders says Wilkins wore a black
derby hat and tan shoes and had light
sandy hair.
The detectives later learned that
Wilkins visited the home of Jeweler
Rice and Induced Mrs. Rice to no to
esrby srrocery store, where his cheek
wns cashed. ,
With a state warrant charging; mur
der sworn out against him. by the
' brother of the murdered man. Lloyd
H. Wilkins. the engineer wanted in
connection with the killing of Lou L.
Winters, is still at large, but is being
sought vigorously. Telegrams were
pent to principal points in the Coast
states, to Kootenai Falls, Idaho, wher
Wilkins" sister lives, and to Superior,
Wis., where F. L. Wilkins, father or
the wanted man, Wilkins' mother,
brother and sister live. The theory
that he had fled East is only a sur
mise on the part of the police, because
investigation of his actions during the
day he is alleged to have been In Port
land show that he had not much more
than a dollar in his possession.
Further investigation by the detec
tives detailed by Detective Captain
Baty have failed to reveal other than
corroborative evidence agreeing with
the clues gathered Sunday, say the of
ficials. A. J. Winters, brother of the dead
man. and the complainant In the war
rant out against Wilkins, placed his
automobile at the service of the detec
tives yesterday morning, and In their
company toured through the North
End, the out-lying residence sections,
railroad and streetcar shops and other
places where it was thought Wilkins
possibly was In hiding.- Mr. Winters
has turned his business over to assist
ants and is devoting all his time in
searching for the alleged murderer of
his brother.
Use of a newly adopted addition to
the Bertlllion system, of which the
peculiarities of human hair, and the
distinctiveness of eacn sample taken,
are features, will be brought Into play,
according to announcement made yes
terday, in case Wilkins is caught.
Three hairs, caught in the nap of the
felt of the mask used by the murderer,
correspond superficially with " the de
scription furnished the detectives of
Wilkins' scanty growth and these are
locked up in a safe at the police sta
tion and will be carefully kept. Drs.
C. F. and G. A. Cathey. the inventors
of a formula to discover erased blood,
also have apparatl with which to mag
nify and classify human hair, no two
samples of which are alike, it is de
clared. This the police will use in
connection with the evidence gathered,
which is purely circumstantial.
Funeral arrangements for Mr. Win
ters have not been definitely set, but
either will be Wednesday or Thursday,
under the auspices of the Mansonlc
fraternity.
WIFE SOUGHT AT CORXELITJS
Merchant's Mate Confused With
Spouse of Wilkins. '
CORNELIUS. Or., Oct. 13. (Special.)
Suspecting that Mrs. Ernest Wilkins,
wife of a local merchant, was his wife,
Lloyd H. Wilkins, Winters' slayer-suspect,
was In Cornelius Saturday trying
to locate her. He said the person whom
he sought was his sister. He gave his
name, address, engineers' union num
ber and other information about him
self. Wilkins traced Mrs. Wilkins through
the V. W. C. A., of which both the lo
cal Mrs. Wilkins and his wife are mem
bers. He sal-d he found his wife's Y.
W. C. A. card in the Winters residence.
By a strange coincidence Mrs. Wilkins
and Mrs. J. A. Lemmon, who also lives
here, were In the Y. W. C. A. Thursday
afternoon when Wilkins entered and
Inquired for Mrs. Wilkins. saying she
was his wife. The two local women
saw him at that time. Later he was di
rected to Cornelius. When he told Mrs.
Lemmon here that he was hi search of
his sister he was confronted with the
fact that in Portland he had said the
woman he sought was his wife. He ad
mitted it. but gave the excuse that the
woman had passed herself off both as
his wife and as his sister but was really
his. sister. He said her father had
come out from Superior, Wis, to locate
her and that both were using every ef
fort to locate her. Wilkins returned to
Portland on an Oregon Electric train
In the forenoon.

NEW WATER TOWER URGED
Apparatus to Fight Fire in Tall
Boildings Is Mayor's Proposal.
Portland is to have a new type of
wetter power to fight dangerous fires
in the upper stories of buildings, 'if
a proposal, made by Mayor Albee in
his annual budget, is finally adopted
by the City Commission. The machine
asked for by the Mayor is an ordinary
looking piece of automobile fire ap
paratus, with a collapsible tube 65
feet in length, which can be extended
into the air.
In case of a fire In the upper stories
of a building which cannot be reached
safely by firemen with ladders, the
tower can be raised and streams of
water played through nozzles at the
top in any direction. It is possible to
play a stream directly Into a window
on an upper floor by merely operating
a lever at the bottom of the tower.
The tower has been used successfully

OFFICERS BLAMED
FOR SHIPS WRECK
Licenses of Captain and Sec
ond Mate of Glenesslin Tem
porarily Suspended.
SKIPPER TELLS HIS STORY
Disaster Attributed to Inexperience
of Assistants and Charges of In
temperance Are Denied.
Court Expresses Regrets.
Findings of the court of inquiry Im
paneled to determine responsibility for
the loss of the British ship Glenesslin
t Necarney Mountain, October 1, as
announced yesterday at the office of
British Consul Thomas ErBklne, were
that the license of Captain Owen Will
iams as master be suspended for a pe
riod of three months and the license of
Secdnd Mate John K. Colefield be sus
pended for six months. British Consul
Erskine said the penalties Imposed were
deemed just, but that himself and other
members of the court, captain jjavia-
son, or tne Lora Tempietown, ana cap
tain Daltoh. of the steamer Border
Knight, dlslikel being compelled to pro
nounce them.
The result of the Investigation was
summarized as follows:
Thut the master. Owen "Williams, was I
negligent In his duty and the court orders
that his certificate as master ba suspended
for three months.
That the first mate. L. W. Hawarth. Is
reprimanded for not acting; Immediately on
his being notified or tne tnreatenea danger,
but was not notified in time to save the
hit)
That the second mate was acting under
orders, but showed great negligence in run
ning as close to shore without Insisting on
the master coming on deck, and also when
the master did not answer his second call,
in not taking matters into his own hands
and nrrlRrinn- the crew to wear Shin In
the critical position in which he considered
the vessel to be, and the court, therefore,
orders thnt his certlflcte as second mate
be suspended for a term of six months.
Captain's Version Told.
Captain Williams made th following
tatement yesterday, this being the
first time he has recounted in detail
events leading up to the wreck:
First of all. September 29 I was
coming inshore and at night time I sent
hands aloft to see if we could pick up
any lights, as I had not seen anything
after leaving Santos. At this time we
were steering a course for the Colum
bia River. Next day the wind came
from the northwest and north-north
west, which headed the ship towards
shore. About 8:30 P. M. we sighted
Tillamook Bay light, which put the
hip in the position where I expected
to see her.
We came inshore until 1:30 A. M.
and then we tacked ship to the west
ward. Then we were about eight miles
from Tillamook Bay light. This Is
also according to the mate's logbook,
We stood out to the westward until s
A. M., sailing about five or six miles
n hour. At 8 A. M. we tacked inshore
gain, heading about northeast. At
8:30 A. M. took observations for longi
tude. At noon I found my latitude
After working out both, found my po
sition 45:38 north, longitude 134:26
west.
Position Is Determined.
The mate's position, also 45:38 north.
34:31 west, made my position 20 miles
offshore at noon. I had been on deck
off and on for two nights, as I had not
seen any lights or any land for 124
days, and I was very anxious to una
out whether my chronometer was
Ight. Of course, on sighting Tilla
mook Bay light, I found that the
chronometer was correct. At that time
It was hazy. As I felt rather tired
fter being on deck at night, I went
to the charthouse and lay down, fully
dressed, and told the second mate to
call me sharp at 2 o clock, as i was
miles offshore at noon, at iz:4o
was about 16 miles offshore. At 2:10
the second mate came to call me and
imply said: "It is 10 minutes past 2.
He did not say the ship was approach
ing land, I did not come out immediate
ly, as I had not been warned of any
danger. A few minutes later the first
mate came to call me and saia tnat tne
ship was getting pretty close inshore.
I at once jumped out ana rouna tne
ship was pretty close. The first thing
did was to order tne man ai tne wneei
to put his helm "hard up' and called
all hands on deck to take in the main
sail and crossjack and square the
yards and to get the ship around as
quickly as possible.
The only way for some people 10
save their own necks Is by cutting an
other's neck and in this case by kill
ing the master. In my opinion, u i
had had experienced officers, I woula
have been called In time and this
would never have happened. Both of
ficers were about 22 years old.
I have many friends here whom I
ave known for years who can testify
as to my sobriety. I was not intoxi
cated at the time the ship was nearlng
shore or after, and further, I have
never been under the Influence or
liquor."
CaDtain Williams win remain in me
ltv a few days to adjust all affairs of
the ship and then proceed to England.
Four of the sailers have gone to Ne
halem to accept work In a sawmill and
others will ship on the German bark
Thlelbek. The six apprentices are to
be sent home on the British ship West-

Result Meetings to Continue.
Face to face with the problem of
trimming at least ' 1600,000 from the
budget of expenses for 1914. the city
budget committee yesterday held the
first of a series of meetings. The po
lice, pound and water estimates were
taken up.
In the police department the only
questions considered was the amount
of supplies needed. It was found that
little or nothing could be trimmed. The
salary or proposed police signal sys
tem appropriation were not discussed.
A movement is under way lor tne
transfer of the dog pound from the
health bureau to the Oregon Humane
Society. Nothing can be cut out of
the proposed pound expenditure if the
city retains it. Humane officials prom
ise a saving.- iso aerinite action was
taken on this. 1
Several small amounts can be elimi
nated from the water department, al
though the saving will not be great
In the street cleaning department no
great reduction was made, altnougn i
few items were cut out. This depart
ment will be considered at greater
length at future meetings.
The committee, which comprises
Commissioners Bigelow and Brewster,

Bridge May Mean Extensive

VANCOUVER, Wash, Oct. 13. (Spe
cial.) That the Washington-Oregon
Corporation, or some other concern that
may take .over Its traction holdings,
will build a line from Vanceuver to
Seattle and other Puget Sound points
is believed inevitable. There is a per
sistent rumor that A. Welch, until
lately head of the corporation, will
.head a new organization, or the trac
tion department of the Washington
Oregon Corporation, and that ultimate
ly there will be one direct line from
Vancouver to Seattle, connecting up
various stretches of electric line al
ready In operation by this company.
Recently a franchise was granted by
Clarke County for a power line over
the Paclflo Highway from Woodland
to Vancouver and other franchises
have been given in other counties.
It is thought by many that when the
Pacific Highway bridge Is built be
tween Vancouver and Portland that
several trolley lines will be extended
Into Clarke County and up and down
the Columbia River. There is much
undeveloped water power on the Lewis
River and this has been filed on and
Is ready for development at any time.
SCHOOL LUNCHES TO START
Sixty Will Be Served at Arleta Now
and 200 Later.
- Lunches will be served today to chil
dren attending the Arleta School
through an arrangement by the Board
of Education and the Parent-Teacher
Association of the neighborhood. The
Board bought the building in which the
lunches will be served, while the asso
ciation fltted it up. Sixty children and
all the teachers have applied for lunch.
For three days a week there will be
soup, bread and butter and cakes for
5 cents for the children. On other days
there will be a change. Later, when
the rainy season sets in, about 200 chil
dren will be served.
It will be less costly, it is urged, for
the children to pay 5 cents than to go
home in the storm, besides the lunch
will be served hot. Mrs. L. E. Ward,
chairman of the committee, will be in
immediate charge.

BAKER, Or., Oct. 13. (Special.)
Efforts are being made by the wife
of J. Thorneywork to clear hlra. He
was arrested in Portland tor passing
a bogus check and was indicted by the
last grand jury under seal, charging
the embezzlement of funds from the
Oregon Lumber Company, of which he
was formerly cashier.
Since the Indictment has been re

There is a host of pills, powders, tablets
and what-not for rheumatism, but they
all lack the first essential to being u.
natural medicine. To begin with, rheu
matism Is simply a name given to desig
nate a variety of pains, and can only b
reached by irrigating the entire Wood
supply with a naturally assimilative anti
dote. True, the pains may be eased with
narcotics or the acids may be neutral
ized for the time being. But such
methods merely temporize and do not
even lead to a cure. There is but one
standard rheumatism remedy, and is sold
in all drug stores under the name of S.
S. S. Attempts are often made to sell
something claimed to be "Just as good."

The recoveries of all types of rheuma

just as well ordained as the most accept

Relief Comes After Taking
Few Doses of Croxone
It is needless to suffer with rheuma
tism, and be all crippled up, and bent
out of shape with its heart-wrenching
pains, when you can avoid It
Rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood the poisonous waste matter
and uric acid; and the only way to
overcome It Is to remove the cause.
Croxone does this because It neutral
izes and dissolves the poisonous sub
stances and uric acid that lodge in the
Joints and muscles, to scratch and irri
tate and cause rheumatism, and cleans
out and strengthens the stopped-ui. In
active kidneys, so they can filter tho
poison from the blood, and drive It on
and out of the system.
Croxone is a truly remarKaoie medi
cine for rheumatism, kidney troubles
and bladder disorders. You will find it
differs from other remedies. There Is
nothing else Just like It. It matters not
how old you are, or how long you have
suffered. It Is practically lmposible to
take It without results. Relief follows
the first few doses, and you will bo
surprised how quickly all misery and
suffering will end.
An original package of Croxone coots
but a trifle, and all drugglHts are. au
thorized to sell It on a positive mon'y
back guarantee. Three doses a day for
a few days Is often all that Is ever
needed to overcome the worst back
ache or urinary disorders. Adv.
