REDS ABE REPORTED ROUTED Runners From Eisleben Announce Defeat at Oberroeblingen. OBERROEBLINGEN, Prussia, Sax eny, March 26. (By the Associated Press.) Reports that the communist forces which have been fighting in Kisleben against the security police for three days had been driven out of that city were brought here last night by men breathless from running the 12 miles which lie between Eisleben and this little Saxon village. They aid that the communists were re treating across the fields, for the most part In good order, but some had thrown away their guns and others had been taken prisoner. The tidings were received without emotion by men and boys who stood, rifles in hand, ready to report for duty to the commander of the com munists. In a few minutes, however, these men and boys began to straggle away, apparently to join their com munist comrades in another stand against the police. One of the refu gees from Eisleben said to the cor respondent last night: "You haven't this sort of fighting in America, have you? Things must go better there." Jlo said that women who had been ramped in the outskirts of Eisleben day and night since fighting began there entered the city immediately after the rifle firing: ceased. "They would have gone earlier," be added, "but tho workmen would not permit them to go in. The women do not have much interest in the world revolution. To them the fight at Eisleben was just a row between workmen and the 'green police.'" Members of the communist forces which were in virtual control of Kiseben permitted the correspondent to enter that city yesterday between bursts of firing, but they were un wlll'ng to escort him back, saying that the only conveyances available were in the hands of the police, and that capture was probable. The cor respondent, however, succeeded in ob taining an automobile and left the town, but as bullets began striking the road around the machine, the chauffeur fled and the correspondent walked as far as Oberroeblingen. After his experiences in Eisleben iind scenes of bloodshed and violence the correspondent found this little village particularly peaceful. In spite of the act that heavy fighting was ffoltig on only a few miles away, church bells were ringing here last erenjng, women were praying in the churches and children were laughing and playing about the streets.

RJEIXTKRCEMEXTS RUSHED Aid Is Reported on "Way for Rioters in 3fansfeld apd Eisleben. HALLE, Saxony, March 26. (By the Associated Press.) Reinforce ment of the communist rioters at IMansfeld and Eisleben was started this morning. Armed workmen were moving from Halle and vicinity in the direction of these two towns to join their comrades, who after many liours of fighting had been driven out of Eisleben by the security police. According to information from both police and communist quarters, they planned to surround the police at Eisleben. The fugitives from Eisleben began reorganizing on the hills northwest of that town, communists here report ed. The eecurity police, however. said they had routed these Eisleben fugitives when they sought to en trench themselves. Reports that Hettstedt had been quieted were denied by communists l;ere today. The communistic forces had blown up the railway station and were reported to be in control of the city, according to these sources and the situation in the region was re garded as threatening. Here in Halle, which is credited with housing the communist commit tee directing the Saxon revolt, con ditions were growing more tense to day. The town eo far has remained quiet. An effort was on foot among the worklngmen to bring on a general strike, but no clashes as a result of this movement had occurred up to noon.

Lee Stelner. superintend ent of the hospital, recently con ferred with Governor Olcott relative to abating the nuisance but It was found that a law was enacted several years ago which forbids the discharg ing of firearms on atate lands. Poison may be tried. Woman Who Shot Herself Dies. Mrs. Mary Neagle, 30 years old, who shot - herself last Sunday morning while In a bedroom at her home, 734 East Madison street, died yesterday1 morning at St. Vincent's hospital. Be fore turn-ing the revolver upon her self Mrs. Neagle willed her personal effects to a friend, writing the docu ment on the back of an envelope. No Inquest will be held, Race for Job Has Xarrowed Down to Early, Relative of Solon, Bramwell and Daly. Still the storm center of the fed eral patronage field is the Job of United States marshal. When Senator Stanfield arrives in Portland the lat ter part of this week, he will be asked more about this appointment than regarding any of the others. The senator is on his way to Ore gon and is supposed to be in Denver today. He will be in VVeiser, Idaho, some time in the middle of the week, and from there will come to Portland. The senator's trip home is for busi ness and not political purposes, but he will discover, unless he is adroit in keeping under cover, that people will prefer talking politics to busi ness. Tw Possibilities Eliminated. Of the eight or more men prom inently mentioned for marshal, at least two are eliminated from fur ther consideration. One is E. C. Kirk patrick of Dallas, and the other is Ferdinand E. Reed of Portland. Judge Kirkpatrick was only a ten tative candidate anyway, and since Ralph E. Williams, national commit teeman, gave the world to understand that he had not been asked to in dorse, and would not recommend any one. Judge Kirkpatrick put the no tion of marshal out of his mind. "I am not and 'never have been a candidate for marshal," said Mr. Reed yesterday. "I have not made an ap plication for that or any other place, nor have I requested a single indorse ment. Reed Also Out of Race. Mr. Reed did not go so far as to say that he would refuse the appoint ment if It were offered, but perhaps considered such an expression super fluous. . So it can be taken as a fact that Mr. Reed is out of the race, if he ever was in it, and for that matter it is known that Senator Stanfield at one time did think of advocating Mr. Reed for the. place. Apparently the main contenders for marshal now are Asa Thomson of Echo, a relative of Senator Stanfield, and F. M. Bramwell of Grants Pass and formerly of La Grande. Senator McNary is supposed to be backing Mr. Bramwell, who in turn has the backing of Charles E. Early, presi dent of the Stanfield-for-Senator clu b. In the financial statement filed by T. B. Neuhausen regarding receipts and expenditures of the club is an item showing that through Mr. Early was contributed J11.&00. Bramwell Han Cood Claim. Presumably, in view of the fore going, Mr. Early's support of Mr. Bramwell should have a bearing on the decision of Senator Stanfield as to the marshalship. At one time, when the patronage brigade was mobilizing, Mr. Neuhau sen preferred as his personal choice for marshal Clarence Hotchkiss, sec retary of the republican state central committee, and opposed the ambition of John L. Day, chairman of the re publican county committee, and Mr. iteed. Since Mr. Early's reported sup port of Mr. Bramwell, Mr. Neuhausen is said to have switched from Mr, Hotchkiss to Mr. Bramwell also. It is not unlikely that the senators may fail to agree over a candidate for marshal, in which eveit both Mr. Thompson and Mr. Bramwell may De thrown into the discard. If a com promise is necessary, then the chance of Mr. Day greatly improves, for he has been a faithful party man and always has been "regular." Day Original McNary Man. He was among the first, if not the first, to suggest to Governor Withy- combe, when Senator Harry Lane died, that Mr. McNary, then state chairman, be appointed to fill the vacancy in the senate. As to the aspirations of A. A. Rob erts, chief of police of Pendleton, and W. L. Campbell, former sheriff of Tillamook county, neither is believed to have the ghost Of a chance of being picked. Among political developments ' of the last week is the well-founded report that when Mr. Williams is a candidate for national committeeman next year he will be opposed by Roy W. Ritner of Pendleton, president of the state senate. Big duinber Contract Awarded. SALEM, Or., 'March 26. (Special.) The Charles K.

A Modern Mortuary? I Webster's unadorned definition of the word describes the basic function of the old-day funeral director. But, as "Mortician" has superseded the incomplete term "funeral director," so "Mortuary," with a newer and fuller sense of service and obliga tion, succeeds the inadequate terms "undertaking parlors" and "funeral home." . JAs interpreted at Finley's, the word means much more than merely the action embraced n Webster's definition.
