Chicago, Oct. 10. Tho Detroit
American League team suffered Its
second successive defeat at the hands
of tho Chicago Nationals today, scor
ing only one run, whilo Chicago tal
lied five times, four of her runs be
ing the result of solid hitting. St-
ever started to pitch for Detroit but
tho locals took kindly to his curves
and batted him out of the box In the
lourth Inning. Kllllan then took
up tho work and was found for three
hits and another run In the fifth.
Detroit vainly tried to break through
tho Chicago defense. Reulbach
pitched strongly In tho opening In
nings and when ho showed signs of
weakening In the fifth and sixth In
nings his team mates came to his res
cue with fast double plays. For
some unexpllcable reason, tho game
failed to attract the usual crowd to
tho grounds. The official attendance
measured a total of 13,114 and many
empty spaces In the extended bleach
ers made tho gathering appear smal
ler than It was.
FREE FERRY FOR
EAST MARSHFIELD
County Court AVill Install Conven
ience Long Needed Mai slit It-Id
to ISuild Slip.
Tho county court has been In ses
sion two days at Coqulllo and dur
ing tho meeting a very Important
matter was decided for Marshflcld
and Its sister city across tho bay. A
largo petition, signed by taxpayers
of both Marshfield and East Marsh
Hold, was presented to the court,
praying that a free ferry be estab
lished between the two places. Tho
action was taken on Wednesday, and
tho petition was granted with tho
understanding that Marshfield will
provide a slip and landing for tho
ferry. Interested parties were pres
ent who guaranteed as much, and
thus the ferry is to becomo a reality.
Tho county obligates itself to put in
tho slip on tho East Marshfield sido,
build the ferry boat, and repair the
approach to tho landing at the Asso
ciated Oil company building.
Bids will soon bo advertised for
for building tho boat which tho plans
show to bo a scow with gasollno
power. TKo boat will bo constructed
Jargo onough to accommodate teams
ns well as passengers, thus making
It convenient for delivery wagons
and freighters to cross to tlie other
sido and deliver goods whore as now
they must bo shipped across nnd re
handled. This convenience will bo
welcomed by both tho residents on
this sido nnd tho other sido as some
thing long needed. Tho Marshfield
slip will likely bo put in at tho
Third street dock.
James Conro, who was lately In
Curry county with Frank Cameron
to inspect a farm they own in
partnership, returned with great
ideas of the territory surrounding
their place. Mr. Conro says it is an
entirely different climate where they
are located, and it Is quit a little
warmer than here. He noticed
among other things that the country
Is well adapted to the growing of
fruit. This place ' situated 12
miles from tho coast and has a num
ber of creeks, being well watered
and convenient for irrigation if
such were, needed.
But Mr. Conro waB Interested In
another matter, and though absent
from Marshfield but a week he
prospected tho Immediate neighbor
hood qulto extensively. He found
that the country Is heavily mineral
ized and in his search uncovered
gold bearing gravel which runs
from six to 25 feot In depth, a great
part of which, according to Mr.
Conro's findings,, will give up as
high as 50 cents per yard In coarse
gold, some of It going even higher.
He predicts for that country a very
great future In the way of develop
ing Into a mineral bearing country,
and says he Is going back to look
into tho matter more throughly be
fore the winter, Is over.
Mr. Conro spent several years in
tho Alaskan territory and brought
back with him the miner's pans he
used on the beach at Nome. He
took one of these with him to
Curry county for use in prospecting.
There are a number of miners who
work in that vicinity during the
rainy season, about four or five
months when the water Is high
enough to afford good sluicing.
These men take out sufflcient gold in
the short runs to make good wages
for the year. The principal trouble
which has held mining back is the
lack of water in the summer months,
but this is being remedied by several
companies which have built flumes
and dams so that they now have
water the year round. It takes con
siderable capital to prepare for
working the gravel for big returns,
but capital is constantly being in
vested there and the mining is cer
tain to show wonderful progress
within tho next few years.
BUILDING SLIP
FOR "NAN SMITH"
Smith Compnny Drhcs Piles
Home to Accommodate Lum
ber Cairier.
for
The C. A. Smith Co have started
driving piling for a slip near their
new mill for the Nan Smith. The
Nan Smith is the new boat 18 feet
draught and a capacity of 2,500,000
feet of lumber now being built for
that company. It will be named af
ter C. A. Smith's eldest daughter.
It Is refreshing to note the way the
managers for the C. A. Smith Co. do
business. The average Oregonlan
would wait till ho heard the whistle
of tho tug bringing tho boat Into the
bay before he would think of hav
ing a dock for her. He would also
wait till there was thirty feet of
water In the bay before he com
menced building the boat. Not the
Smith people. They order the boat
built with the capacity desired and
then start working for the required
depth of water. In less than a year
the Nan Smith will bo on Coos Bay
and It is a good betting proposition
there will be plenty of water for her.
It means much for Coos Bay when
tho truth goes out to the shipping
world that a vessel of 18 feet
draught onters this port at will.
The small launch bought by the
Smith-Powers Co. on the Coqulllo
river some time ago has been remod
eled and put In fine shape for tow
ing, the purpose for which it was
bought. It has been dignified by the
name of Teddy Bear and, while the
smallest of the fleet, will be the
flagship. Th,e Nan Smith Is the larg
est and the Mabel H. the fastest.

next few months It is expected that
work on another largo reclamation
project will be in progress. The
contract required by the state land
board and signed by President J. E.
Morrison, of the Deschutes Land
company, stipulates that the com
pany shall reclaim 31,000 acres of
land adjoining Rosland at an es
timated cost of $20 per acre, and
the Hen price of the settler is $30
an acre. This land has a deep,
rich soil, is very level and is al
most entirely fieo from rock.
This project has beon held up
for some time, but it is expected
that It will now go forward and
Its successful completion will be of
much value to this entire section.
Tho lnnd to be reclaimed lies for
25 miles along Little river, its low
est extremity being a short distance
below Bouge's place, at Rosland,
and extending into Klamath county,
Rosland, 32 miles south of Bend,
will be tho headquarters of this enterprise.

ARREST WRONG MAN
IN OLD ST. LOUIS
St. Louis, Oct . 10. Railroad
ticket number 13,523 Is responsible
for tho fact that Oscar Blaven, 21
years old, of Pendleton, Or., spent
two uneasy nights and a day in the
four courts, where he was held as a
murderer suspect.
Blaven wns arrested Saturday
night at Union station by Detective
John f-Ioward on a telegram from
Sheriff Taylor of Pendleton.
"Why, the sheriff was the last per
son to bid me good-by boforo I de
parted, said Ulaven, alter his ar
rest. "There must have been some
mistake I am not wanted for any
thing."
Tho police wired to Pendleton that
they had arrested tho holder of

for construction company and has
fingers off at first joint,' read the

WILL PROSECUTE
SOUTHERN PACIFIC
California Shippers, Learning that
Rebates Arc Given, AA'ill Seek
Revenge.
San Francisco, Cal., Oct. 10.
Amazed by the revelations made In
the Inquiry before Interstate Com
missioner Lane of the seceet rebat
ing practiced by the Harriman rail
roads, a number of the small ship
pers have organized and engaged
special prosecutors to carry the
matter to the courts and secure a
measure of justice. For years these
small shippers have been at the
mercy of the railroad monopoly,
and they see now a chance to get
some of the benefits of the new in
terstate commerce act, which makes
rebating Illegal. It is possible that
the state board of railroad commis
sioners may be drawn into the prose
cution, as it has been notoriously
lax in its duty. Shippers who have
been "cinched" by the railways have
mado repeated demands upon tho
commission for relief and have
asked for the tariff sheets, which
are supposed to bo in the custody
of the commission. Tho answer has
alwajs been that tho commission
hnd not received the schedule of
rates from the railways, so the
shippers, wero obliged to pay what
ever the railway demanded. Action
looking toward legislation to abol
ish the commission is contemplated
by the angry shippers.
