A jury yesterday returned a verdict
In Federal Judge Wolverton's court di
recting: the Maryland Casualty Company
to pay to Zillan Cowen, executrix , of
the estate of Christian P. Baxmyer,

the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road.
Zillah Cowen made claims to both
the Maryland Casualty Company and
the Standard Accident Insurance Com

carried policies, for death benefits.
The cause of Baxmyer's death could
not be learned and the attorneys for
the Insurance companies said it looked
like suicide. As the policies carried by
Baxmyer did not insure against sui
cide, her demands for death benefits
were met with refusal.

with his lantern, be might properly
conclude his quest for the honest man
by visiting Portland and casting a lit

tered the United States National Bank

about tbe prize and debated the possi
bility of it being a hoax. Then they
took the lost currency and their prob

TOURIST HEAD IS NAMED
EMERY OLMSTEAD TO BE VICE-
PRESIDENT OF ASSOCIATION.
Legislatures Will Be Asked to Provide
Fonda to Present Scenic Beauty
of Northwest In East.
At a meeting yesterday of the Ore
gon directors tor the Pacific North
west Tourist Association, which was
formed at Tacoma Wednesday, Emery
Olmstead was unanimously chosen as
the Oregon vice-president.

sociation Is the result of a movement

bile Club and the Portland Chamber
of Commerce. The Intent of the asso
ciation Is to combine all the scenic
resources of the Northwest in "The

advertise the beauties of Crater Lake,
that wonderful spot will be made a
feature of the big tour, and the re
sources of Washington and British
Columbia will be combined with those
of Oregon to make the tour known to
the entire world.
The plan contemplates opening of
fices in the East, each to be In cnarge
of a skilled salesman of the scenic
wealth of the Northwest. It is much
the same plan as was adopted by Cali
fornia and by Colorado in selling their
scenio wonders.
It is the Intention to ask the Legis
latures of the three districts to finance
the advertising campaign, and its pro
moters were much encouraged yester
day by the approval they received.
