LONDON, July 6. It is reported that
King George is likely to honor post
humously the late Joseph Chamberlain,
who died on Thursday night, by con
ferring a title on his widow, formerly
Mary Endicott, daughter of the late
William C. Endicott, of Salem, Mass,
Mr. Chamberlain himself persistently
refused to accept any title.

Loot Found on Robber.
When arrested the two train robber
were walking along the railroad track
In the direction of La Grande and less
than 20 miles from the scene of the
holdup. Neither man was armed and
they offered no resistance when placed
under arrest. They had $385 in cash
and the 2700 diamond ring taken from
H. B. Royce. the Walla Walla brewer,
who was a passenger on the train, and
a smaller diamond, but the diamonds
were thrown away when they were
arrested to prevent their being used to
connect them with toe holdup.
In conjunction with other officers.
Batchelor had been watching the rail
road track In the vicinity of La Grande
ever since the holdup. When he saw
these two men coming down the track
he stopped them and not being satis
fied with their explanations as to their
presence there, took them Into - La
Grande.
Denial Blade at First.
Despite the amount of money found
In their possession, both stoutly de
nied any connection with the robbery
until Sheriff Taylor and Special Agent
Wood arrived from this city. Soon
after their arrival Sheriff Taylor had
obtained a complete confession and a
promise from the men that they would
lead him to the point where they had
thrown away the ring and also to the
spot In the mountains where they had
cached their guns and the valuables
taken from the passengers on the
train.
According to the confession made by
Meadors and Stoner, they are both
sheepherders, while Manning was a
professional gambler. They say Man
Ming was the leader and the man. who
first suggested the career of crime to
them.
Cheek Is Traced.
Even without the arrest and confes
sion of the two confederates Sheriff
Taylor and Agent Woods would have
been practically certain of the Identity
of Manning today. Taking the check
found in the dead man's purse, they
started an Investigation, which showed
that In January, 1913, Manning won a
sum of money from F. C Woods, of
Salt Lake, In a grambling game In
Cokeville. Woods gave Manning this
check for 2150 In payment of his
losses. Manning cashed It at the
Cokeville saloon of Boomer & Fuller,
but by the time the check reached the
Utah State National Bank of Salt Lake
the payment of the check had been
stopped and Manning was forced to
redeem it from the saloon.
The officers had also found that the
prescription found among Manning's
effects was originally written by Dr.
C. Madera, of Cokeville, and that it
was filled in Baker June 23 of this
year.
Credit Given McDuffy.
It also developed today that Joseph
Jones, chief special agent of the Ore
gon Short Line, with headquarters In
Salt Lake, had become so firmly con
vinced last night the dead man was
Manning that he dispatched an officer
from Salt Lake to Cokeville to trace
out the recent movements of Manning.
The capture of the entire gang of
robbers within three days after the
holdup sets a record for the apprehen
sion of train robbers in the. West. It
Is said. Local officers ascribe much
of the credit to the good work of Dep
uty Sheriff McDuffy In breaking up
the robbery, killing the leader and
causing all the well laid plans of the
robbers to go awry.
Men Glad of Arrest.
"I am mighty glad to come In and
have It all over with," said Albert
Meadors. "That Is exactly the way I
feel about It." agreed Clarence Stoner,

That th what crop of th three

authority In th Northwest. Th gen

Th crop In these states last yar

ATHENS, July 5. The Athens papers
publish dispatches from Chios, an

a Turkish destroyer on July S attacked
and captured a Greek sailing ship
which was transporting refugees to
Chios. The same destroyer proceeded
to Gouni Islet and bombarded and de
stroyed a monastery.
