Was to Mine All of 33 "Cun-
ningham" Claims.
SENATOR HEYBURN NAMED
Olnvis Introduces Notebook Showing
Idahoan Was to Have Claim of
160 Acres Carried for Him In
Return lor Legal Services.
SKA TT I.E. Wash., Nov. 20. Trt- United
States Court today. In the hearing of the
Inquirr Into the validity of the Cunning
ham Alaska coal land claims, continued
introduction of testimony to show that
the filing on 52SO acrfs of land near Ka
tl. valued at JDO.000.OJU or more, was
ma!e by SI claimants ith the purpose of
consolidating the claims and mining the
coal through one company. -
Andrew Kennedy, a government ex
pert who had been all over the claims,
testified that most of them had been pros
pected with a view to ascertaining the
width of the coal veins, but th:.t there
had been no permanent development work
except on one, where a timbered tunnel
had been driven with a view, apparently,
to reaching the coal of this and adjoin
ing claims and working tbem together.
An excellent trail had been built connect
ing the various claims.
Flndlnjc or foal Described.
Dr. J. G. Cunningham, of Spokane, told
of the distovery of tho coal, as did his
brother Clarence, who interested Ills min
ing friends and induced them to file on
claims through litm.
1. Ft. Jlavis. who obtained much of the
evidence introdiM-tJ si this hearing, and
who was removed from the position of
. Field Agent of the General Lend Office
' by Secretary of the Interior Ballinger.
; with the approval of President Taft. was
called as a witness and identified a letter
j which he had written recently to Attor
'tiey J. H. Sheridan, who represents the
'Government in the present inquiry.
Heyburn's Xnnie Irasgcd In.
Pherldan hail asked for a conference
with Glavis concerning tho facts to which
tiiavis could testify. Glavis replied that
b would meet the prosecutor, but that
a conference was not necessary., for the
Government was already in possession of
. records of all the, Information to which
he could testify. He was notified that he
would be called Monday morning.
The most sensational testimony Intro
4 duced so far in the case Is a copy of
' Clarence Cunningham's notebook, pro
' cured by Glavis. in which an entry states
that Cunningham had agreed to carry a
coal claim of lt acres for Senator Hey
burn, of Idaho, in return for legal serv
ices. Other exhibits, however, denied any
connection of Ileyburn with the Alaska
claims while a Senator.

ORKGON CITY. Or.. Nov. 20. I P..
Lindsey. of Canby. who is one of tho
most prominent horsemen In the state
and lias been on the track fur 66 years,
says many fine horses will be "Wintered
on the half-mile track; of the Clack
amas County Fair Association at Can
by. There are now over 40 horses on
the grounds, with many more to come.
Sam Castro, a horseman of Salem,
brought about 15 horses to the fair
grounds this week. He says the track
here is better in Winter than the
dalem track, owing to the sandy soil
of Canby. Mr. Lindsey and his son,
Sim Lindsey. have nine horses to train,
owned by District Attorney Tongue,
the winner of the $2000 purse at Salem
this year during the fair, among them.
At the time the horse won this purse

charge are Satin Royal, trotter, also a
purse-winner, and Florence V.. a pacer,

Tacoma Judge Refuses Porllaiider"

TCOMA. Wash., Nov. 10. (Special.)
Theodore Martin, a Portland youth
who came to Tacoma some time ago.
Insisting that the body of a suicide
found in Point Defiance Park was that
of his father. Robert James Martin,
failed in his efforts today, when the
petition for an administrator for the
estate was argued before Superior
Judge Easterday. ,
At the conclusion of the arguments,
during which evidencewas heard from
young Martin and Coroner G. D. Shaver.
Judge Easterday announced that lie
would continue the hearing until next
Friday, with the hope that further evi
dence would be produced. ' He said
there was much contention.
Martin appeared In court with ' At
torney Leuders. Coroner Shaver was

body is that of R. 3. Madden, a prom
inent mining engineer who lived at

AGAIN -THEY MOVE
Return of Officer to Vancouver
Causes General Shift.
PERFORMANCE-IS REGULAR
Ranking Officer Has His Choice of
Quarters and One Below Must
Give Place, and So On Down
Through the Whole Staff.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. Nov. 30. (Spe
cial.) Because Major Abner Pickering
has arrived from Jefferson Barracks, and
has the power to "rank out" officers be
low him. the atmosphere at Vancouver
Barracks will, be tilled with furniture,
figuratively speaking. Monday, bright and
early, and no less than five officers and
families will hap changed quarters by
nightfall.
In the United States Army it is cus
tomary for an officer of higher rank to
"outrank" an officer of less degree, and
he may have his choice of any quarters
furnished by the government, If no of
ficer of higher degree desires it. When
he has once picked out his quarters, how
ever, he must remain there until an of
ficer of still higher rank "outranks" him.
and causes him to move, when he can
outrank the next man below him, nnd so
on until the lowest officer in the barracks
takes the last choice of quarters offered
by I'ncie Sarn. This Is more in practice
here than in many places, as the quar
ters are old and there am scarcely two
of tho same degree of desirability and
convenience.
Major Pickering has arrived and is now
staying at the St. Elmo Hotel in this
city, hut he lias made application, which
has been granted, for the quarters now
occupied by Captain Reasoncr; Captain
Reasoner will take the quarters now oc
cupied by Lieutenant Lister, who dispos
sesses Lieutenant Ruttencutter, who will
shove out Lieutenant Boughton. who will
he forced out of the post entirely, and
be compelled to rent a house In the City
of Vancouver.
Captain Lacey Returns.
Captain F. E. Iacey, who has been at
tending War College, in Washington, D.
C. will return to the First Infantry De
cember 6, when tills ranking-out ordeal
will be done all over again. ,
At the present time there arc not
enough quarters in Vancouver Barracks
and application h;i been 'mado to tho
War Department, in Washington for 18
additional sets of quarters, and this ap
plication has been approved by General
Maus. of fhe Di-partment of the Colum
bia. On account of the shortage of quar
ters, the following officers are now liv
ing In homes in the City of Vancouver:
Dr. Le May, veterinarian: Dr. Scott,
dental veterinarian; Lieutenant A. J.
Davis. Father Joyce, chaplain, and Lieu
tenant Boughton.
There arc in the First Infantry 51 of
ficers, but of these but 33 are present. If
the other IS were to be called back here
to live permanently, they would not be
able to be accommodated by Government
quarters.
The officers at this post are so accus
tomed to this ranking out ordeal, that
they have reduced moving to a science.
When they receive notice that some of
ficer of higher rank desires to have their
quarters, tliey get a' number of soldiers
who are not busy, or .are doing fatigue
duty, and the moving begins and Is over
In half a day. Then the wives get busy
and settle and a person calling next day
would not realize that a move had just
been consummated.
Men Forget Our Homes.
On account of this continued moving,
one officer may be in one part of the
barracks today and in another part to
morrow, so the delivery men and mes
sengers have a hard time to keep track of
the officers when they want them. The
Ice man or the coal man, when sent wjth
a load to deliver, may find he has un
loaded at the wrong quarteas before the
mistake is discovered. A person not liv
ing in the post may go to the barracks
to pay a call and when he rings the bell
be humiliated to find that a mistake has
been made, and Captain So-and-So now
lives over there on the other side of the
post.
A number of cases have been known
where an officer, shortly after moving,
will go back to his old quarters and not
discover his mistake until he takes a
peep at the furniture, sees a strange hat
on the halltree or sees a child of a
brother officer come to greet him, when
lie will retreat in haste. -
But with all this out-ranWhg, the best
of feeling prevails. An officer looks at
the proposition from a business point of
view. Includes his quarters as part of his
pay, and thinks he Is entitled to the best
there is to be liai. He wants the best he
can get according to his rank and he
thinks there must be something wrong
with an officer who will not take advan
tage of his ranking-out privilege.
Each officer has his name painted on
a tin sign, six inches high, and posted iff
the front and the rear of his quarters.

Willamette at Albany Reaches Ten
Foot Mark, but Belief Is That
"Worst of Storm Is Over In
Willamette Valley.
ALBANY-. Or., Nov.' 20. (Special.)
Tho new cement pier under the big
wagon bridge across the Santiam River
at Jefferson toppled over last ' night
and has disappeared in the swollen wa
ters of the Santiam. The pier was
erected only last Summer by Unn and
Marlon counties at a cost of 3200.
Tho big bridge still stands without
apparent damage, for the reason that
the fallen pier was erected lna place
where there had been no pier and did
not alter the shape of the bridge. The
bridge was In a weakened condition
last Summer and the new pier was
erected to strengthen It. The pier was
40 feet high and 32 feet wide and was
built of solid cement with a steel cas
ing. The Santiam is now at flood stage
and continues to rise rapidly. The flood
In the South Santiam has . washed out
the false work for' tire , new Southern
Pacific railroad bridge at Lebanon. The
boom to catch wood for the-Lebanon
paper mills also broke today, but most
of the wood had been floated, into the
canal before the high water, so little
was lost. ' '
The Calapooia River Is flooded along
its entire course through. Linn County,
but no damage along this stream has
been reported.
The Willamette Itlver has risen three
feet Blnce morning and stands 10 feet
above low-water mark tonight It is
still riBing rapidly, but from present
indications, will hardly reach flood
stage, which is 20 feet above low wa
ter at this city.
Heavy rains continued last night and(
.84 of an inch was recorded here in
the past 24 hours, according to the
record kept by F. M. French. United
States weather observer at Albany.
It is peculiar that bridges across the
Santiam at Jefferson have always suf
fered in the early Fall floods, before
the river reaches full flood stage and
before damage is reported anywhere
else. "When medium high water is ex
perienced in the Santiam it seems to
create a current which plays havoc at
Uthe site of the railroad and wagon
bridges which cross the river side oy
side at Jefferson. The wagon bridge
there has suffered several different
times, and when the first floods began
In the Fall of 1906 a whole span of the
