POSSE GOES IN PURSUIT Fleeing Kobb 'rs Carry Away 1100 of Bank's liquids in Raid lliat Kesembles Tliat Made by Cans at Elraa, Wash. NEW HAZELTON, B. C, April 7. outlawws were killed, three others were wounded and two of them cap .tured this morning in a battle between a band of robbers and a large posse headed by Provincial police and citi zens, following the robbing of the lnion Ban kof Canada branch here. The third wounded man -and a sixth member of the band escaped with $1100 in cash. A posse is searching for them. The bank, which is a substantial building of losconstruction, standing by itself apart' from other buildings, had opened only a few minutes for business when the robbers ap peared. Two men armed with rifles sauntered up the road, two others came from the woods at the rear of the bank, and two more came from another direction. The first two stepped in side the door of the bank and with rifles raised called out "hands up." The other four appeared almost at the same instant, taking up positions out side the bank. Customer I Robbed. The only customer In the bank was John Gaslin. manager for a contracting firm. Uaslin had a sheaf of checks and postal orders in his hand, and less than $50 in cash. While his companion covered the employes with his rifle, one robber stepped forward and took iiaslin's cash, also reaching over the teller's desk to the drawer and taking all the currency within reach. The robbers were not more than half a minute in the bank. As they backed out. the clerks began to reach for their pistols and in reply to this move ment, the robbers fired several shots through counters and walls. The only wsn hit was Fenton, a ledger keeper, who suffered a scalp wound from & fcplinter knocked out of his desk. Tfce shooting alarmed the town and several cowboys who happened to be In a hardware store got their pistols intu play at once. The Provincial po lice, who have been on the watch for just such a robbery, also began shoot 1C from cover at the outlaws. Citizens Aid 1 They were backed n Battle. up by citizens and within a. few moments the fusil lade was general. Shooting under cover the posse did such effective work that two of the robuers fell dead in their tracks as the raced along tbe road toward the bush. Two others fell and were captured. Neither of the dead has been identified. All the robbers are believed to be Russians and the gang may be the same that two months ago robbed the same bank and got-away into the hills. The posse at 1 d'clock was still out In pursuit of the robbers, but the chances of killing the other two until the chase is thoroughly organized are not good. There was Btill some shooting going on. Gang; May Be F.I ma Outlaws. . The band of robbers may have been tne one wnicn nad in tha past year robbed tne.nanKs at .ew Hazleton. B. :., Oranite b aIT!Syasli.. Abbotsford. B. C. and Klma, WasliN. It was the custom ut the gang to appirtir suddenly at bank during business iidw-s. compel the tellers to hand over all wb money in their cages, and then disappear. The robbers were always unmasked and were dressed like loggers or railroad laborers, with slouch hats, boots and rough coats. After the four robberies no one who saw the robbers could give a good description of them, or even be sure of their number. Some said there were five,, others six or seven. The team work of the robbers was wonderful, ISach one knew just what to do. Here- toiore a great snow or llrearms was made, but shooting was avoided. After each of the four robberies the men took ostensibly for the woods. but it is evident they had a means of flight carefully arranged, for they were never intercepted. Instead the posses were soon besieging and even firing at one another, as wa notably the case after the Elma robbery last month, when the robbers escaped with 94-80. COQUILLE PORT IS SUED Mill Company Claims Damages Result of Winter rreshets. MARH FIELD, Or.. April 7. (Spe cial.) The Port of Coquille, which com prises the watersheds of the North Middle and South Forks of the Coquille River and east and south of the city or t oquiiie. has been sued by the Myr tle Point Mill Company, of Myrtle Point, lor i:8.io damage the company claims was done its business through carelessness of the Port Commissioners. In the Summer of 1913 the Pbrt Co mlssioners ordered the cutting of brush, which overhung portions of one fork of the river, to aid navigation. During the Winter when the freshets came, this brush collected and jammed in the vi cinity othe Myrtle Point sawmill and 2200 feet of boom washed away, logs held by the boom were lost and the water caused from the jam made i necessary to close down the sawmill The suit will be heard at the April term or the Circuit Court. MORE BANKS DEMANDED Continued From First Pas. building by adopting a resolution urg ing Congress to turn over to the West ern states 5 per cent of the public do main within their boundaries, the pro ceeds to be used for the improvemen of the -highways. Governor Ammons -in his address welcome outlined tne plan or the ex ecu lives to demand more liberal Fed eral policies in administering the pub li' domain, adding: v e don t ask anything unreason able; we Intend to ask only the rights that wtre granted to all the olde states." Brief speeches were made by Gover nors West. Lister and Spry, afte -which Governor Carey took the floo to discuss Carey act irrigation projects. He declared that 900.000 acres of land in Wyoming had been reclaimed unde the provisions of the statute. "But," he continued, "restrictions tne part or the Federal Government and the long delays thereby occasioned have largely neutralized the good re. 2 suits of the law. Lack of co-operation by the general Government baa driven men away from, this form of Invest ment." A part of the faults he charged against the Federal Government he laid at the door of the civil service, declaring that department heads "are unable to discharge men who are In efficient." Of conservation he said: "Conservation of resources is right In fact and right in theory. But Just as soon as you go so far as to say that the Government of the United States shall assume complete control and stop the parceling out of land among the people, it will bring stagnation." Governor Oddie urged the Governors to take measures to check the emigra tion of farmers to the Canadian North west, declaring that more .liberal land laws, with this In view, were impera tively needed. Shnckleford Bill Opposed. Governor Ammons then presented Federal aid to states In road building. There was a spirited discussion, in the course of which it was brought out that the Western executives consider the Shackleford bill, appropriating money for road building. Is unjust to the more sparsely settled states. It was announced that the early ses sion of tomorrow would be devoted to the leasing system In the administra tion of the public lands. Chairman Carey appointed Governors Spry, Am mons and Lister as a committee to prepare a programme of addresses on that subject ST. JOHNS BONDS LOSE SOCIALIST ELECTED MAYOR PLURALITY OF 34.

(Special.1 The Supreme Court, in an opinion to day in the case of Walter Scibor against the Orego.i-Washlngton Rail road & Navigation Company, held that. under certain circumstances, a person charged with crime who is wounded by an arresting officer is entitled to damages. A verdict for $2000 damages awarded by a jury In Circuit Judge McGinn's court was affirmed. W. A Mack, a watchman for the company, in February, 1912, detected Scibor carrying wheat from its termi nal yards In Alblna and followed the man to his home. There, he found about 30 sacks of wheat, which he be lieved had been stolen from the yards. Scibor. who was in the basement where the wheat was stored, was Im mediately charged with being impli cated in the robbery. He resisted ar rest and is said to have thrown boil ing coffee on the watchman. Mack is alleged to have used his club and to have severely beaten the plaintiff. The evidence showed that the watch, man was In the employ of the defend ant and -the court held it was respon sible for his acts. Instructions of Judge McGinn, attacked by tho defendant, were held by the Supreme Court to be proper. . RAILROAD WORK IS RUSHED Contractors Have 600 Men Busy on Coos Bay Part of Xew Road.

RESOURCES Immense Possibilities of Fish eries and Mines Cannot Be Estimated. SHIPPING FIELD BONANZA Jolly Mike Martin, Former Portland Citizen, Pioneer in District Other Oregonlans Live in "Southern Gate of Awakening Xorth." BY ADDISON BENNETT. KETCHIKAN. Alaska. Anrll 2 (Staff Correspondence.) Since early this morning the Stetson has been dis charging coal. The captain says we win sail rrom here about 6 o'clock this evening. We will thus have nearly all day here, and I. at least, have taken advantage of the opportunity to talk to as many people as I could and get an or tne facts 1 could. I have interviewed a good many mer chants, and many of them hail the new steamship line from Portland with de light. Whether we get a good share of the trade depends largely upon the service. Its regularity principally. ltn so many Sound boats comlnar and going, tne merchants say they can generally count on getting goods In their stores in six to seven days from tne date of the dispatch of the order. But they quite generally say that a lit tle longer time would not amount to much If they could be sure as to whe the goods would arrive. W hile it Is true that many merchants talk that way, and others much strong er, alleging that they have not received the treatment from the Sound Jobbers that they think they deserve, it Is like wise true that thetSound Interests ram ify the trade here to a large extent by Invested capital. The only way to get around that is for the Portland capital ists to gradually reel their wav along and also become interested. That will take time, but by pursuing a liberal policy it can- be done. And the field will never again be in as good shape to take nold as It Is today. ivetchlkan is In most respects a typi cal Oregon town. There is very little Indian, Spanish or Russian about It. There are. It is true, a couple of totem poles standing in the town and a large numDer in a graveyard across the bay; but the stores, even the buildings them selves, are typically American. Twi Built Osj Hilly Ground The streeta to be sure are not paved. they are all well planked. They run around In -various directions to a de gree. At least one of the business streets Is less than 40 feet wide, with nine-foot walks on each side. In some of the older portions of the town It is difficult to tell which Is Smith's back yard and which is Brown's front yard. Many . of the cheaper dwellings are the merest shanties, sit ting In many cases up on stilts along the side hill, for the town Is on unlevel ground. Usually If one Is not going uphill you are going down. The first thing that attracts the at tention of the newcomer is a vast con crete building near the wharf. It Is something like 60 by 100 feet, five sto ries, but not a window above the first story. It is a new cold storage plant. Just getting ready for business. An other large plant of the same kind is In the upper part of town. It handles a large amount of salmon and halibut, two Important industries here; in fact, the most Important at present. Newspapers Arc Prospering. My first visit this morning was to the office of the Daily Miner, an even ing paper that seems very much alive. It has a good office and does a big job business. A Mergenthaler sets the type and they have good presses. Rich ard Bushell. Jr., and his wife own and run this plant and they seem to be prospering. There Is also a morning paper, the Morning Mall. This is also a good look, ing paper, but does not have as good an office as the Miner. I received every courtesy at the Miner office. But then the Ketchikan people are all courteous so far as my mixing goes to show. Little Brewi Brook" Dreauny Stream. Usually the first place people go when they arrive , here for the first time is to see what Ella Higginson calls "The Little Brown Brook." She raves over it in prose and others have ranted over it in verse. The real name of it is Ketchikan Creek. You can't miss it if you come here, for there are signs all over town, sort of finger boards, pointing to The TCreek. . Well, I did not go crazy over It- I followed It up for a mile or so, up to the power plant. It is a lovely stream. Truly and really a stream to dream about. But to rant and rave over it you must see It later in the season when It Is a mass of salmon and trout. Thousands of fishermen catch millions of trout out of it every year, still there are trout galore. Its waters are as clear as distilled water can be then some. It flows over varl-colored stones and rocks: it dashes, plunges and "sallies" down waterfalls and through gorges and over "pebbly reaches." I only hope some day to see it again, and In the season. Now I must go back- to the newspa pers, back to the Morning Mail, for I missed a cog in my notes and failed to ention an old-time Oregon lan who is Its proprietor. His name is E. A. Heath. Long years ago he stuck type on The Oregonlan, for many years was in the newspaper business in Eastern Oregon, had papers at Harney, w estfall and Vale. May this notice call attention of many old friends to this genial gen tleman of the olden time. Winter Weather Reported Balmy. I am 750 miles from Portland, mostly north. The oldest inhabitant here. Mike Martin, says since, he came here In 188d the thermometer has never been lower man 2 -degrees below zero. This inter, or rather the past Win ter, it fell no lower than 16 above. Last Winter It snowed here to a depth of less than two inches. Think of that And today is almost like Summer and in Alaska. "Ketchikan, the southern gate of the awakening North." That is the Ketchl kan slogan. I cannot as yet' vouch for Ita full truthfulness; but from present observations It seems no great flattery. Anyhow, they are doing things here. This may never be a great agricul tural region, probably never will be. The soil is not suitable. But the fish eries and mines may have possibilities beyond our dreams. Two prospectors, L. S. Rush and George E. Brown, have opened a mine 40 miles from herV, on Prince of Wales Island would that we could change it to a good American name have opened a "prospect" from which they have taken ores valued at $500,000 and have another half million in sight. They are down only 147 feet. These mountains are full of copper and gold, with Ketchikan as the, center. Ploieer Oaee Lived la Portland. What a wealth of material for so small a space! Why, Mike Martin, -the old est inhabitant of Ketchikan, gave me the material for a page in The Oie gonian a paper he has taken- -every day he could get it since he came here in 1885. Ketchikan was then not much more than a name and a location. He came here, after a residence of 11 years in Portland, as an employe of the coop erage establishment of A. D. Tufts, came hero with Jimmy Carroll, on the good ship Ancon. a ship that carried the mall to these parts at 85 per let ter. She was supposed to come once a month and bring the mall to Sitka. Juneau and Lor ing. (Where is Lorlng now?)" Mike Living; la Luxury. In 18S7 one Berry, of Astoria, started a small cannery here and Mike became head fisherman. There were only 420 white men In all Alaska at that time He held the Job for 1 years. Ketchi kan was nothing but a center then no buildings, nothing but the faith of Mike and a few others. The first house was built here In 1886. Mike built a residence In 1887. and on this site he now has one -of the finest residences in town. His wife died eight years ago. Mike Uvea In luxury in his fine residence and has the same Jap servant he has had for 14 years. Mike was the' first Mayor when the town was organized and was re-elected three times. Genial. Jolly, Mike has grown rich and stout. He is a splen did specimen of Celtic manhood. He was born In Ireland, and glories in it. Last Patrick's day his pride was so great that the enthusiasm broke his leg. Mike now keeps a thirst parlor. From the day he started to ship goods from the South he has never sent a penny to any city but Portland and has never spent a penny for groceries or wet goods to but two bouses there. Business Houses Modern. The time here is an hour later than at Portland. So we have set our watches that Is, those who have watches back for an hour. The ho tels, eating-houses, mercantile estab lishments, picture shows, docks, saw mills and canneries are up to date as any round In a city of 2000. The elec trie light plant, run by power from The Brook, is as fine as any anywhere. The pipe line running from above the falls to the plant has a fall of 320 feet and the pipe is 46 Inches in diameter. This would furnish light and power for a city of 44,000. Traveler Will Return to City. The agent of the Portland line here is John A Beegle. He Is a fine gentle man and a business getter. The com pany could have made Sio better se lection. And thus I might go on for an hour and tell of things of Interest. 1 might tell of the hopes of the people here of the opening of the Grand Trunk Rail way to Prince Rupert, which will place them two days nearer to the great East: I could tell of the churches, the schools,' the various Interesting facts going to show that Ketchikan is not a hamlet, village or town, but a city. 1 might mention the two fine hotels, the Stedman and ReveHa. might say that it is a moral town and permits no gambling, and might tell of Its auto mobiles and its. progressive merchants. It time and space permitted. However. I hope to come back to Ketchikan with more time at my disposal and tell the readers of The Oregonlan the full facts about this splendid little city. EX-TEACHER CLAIMS JOB O.IINCY RECALL KLECTIOX AT TACKED BV Ol STKU SOCIALISTS. Woman Who Led Crowd That Stormed School Only Tried Prevent Illegal Seisins; of Place, Lawyer Asserts. ST. HELENS.
