Miller Is still in Jail today and some
strong circumstantial evidence has
been secured against him. He de
nies having anything to do with tho
disappearance of the baby.
However, the officers think other
wise. The Doane boys, C. H. nilv
ens, Mrs. Johnson, of South Fourth
street and others tell stories that con
flict with Miller's tale about his be
ing in North nend all day yesterday,
or rather after about 10 o'clock.
It seems that Mrs. Stanley was tho
one that rofused Miller the food yes
torday. Mrs. Kendall who lives near
the Stanleys gave him some food.
Mrs. Smith did not seo him but as
tho child was playing near tho Stan
ley resldenco, tho officers think that
Miller believed it was Stanley's baby
and that ho took the little one away
for revenge. ....,
Officers nichardson and Carter de
clare it was imposlble for the child
to have gone alone where It was
found.

Delay in Construction May
Mean Nothing Done 'on
Bar Here This Year
Tho Port of Coos Hay Commission
will probably tako action at once to
try and hasten the construction of
tho bar dredgo Mlchlo so that It ran
bo given a good test on tho bar during
tho good weather this summer. It
was first expected that the Mlchlo
would be ready for servlco here In
July or August at the latest but it la
now Intimated that It will not bo
completed at Soattle beforo tho last
of October. This will mean that tho
dredgo will bo nblo to do little or
nothing this fall as the wcathor will
bo too rough to permit her working
on the bar.
See. Sengstacken took the matter
up with Captain Polhemus and this Is
the reply ho received in regard to It
and some other port matters this
morning:
"I beg to thank you for your letter
of May 31st, Informing mo about tho
oil storage situation at Coos Day.
Major Morrow tolls mo that tho
dredgo "Mlchlo' probably will not be
ready until October, but I am sure
when she Is ready lie will bo very
glad to mako the arrangements you
suggest with the Oregon Power Com
pany. It will savo tho Government
tho expense of erecting a tank.
No doubt Mr. Hedges will wish to
use tho oil tank also and I hope It
will be large enough to accommodate
both dredges.
Our draftsman has been away, but
Is back again and tho first sheet of
tho Coos Day map Is about finished,
I trust all the sheets will bo dono
within 10 days, when I will seo that
you get some copies to Indlcato your
project.
When your dredging contract Is
completed you will havo a pretty good
bay channel which can be widened
later."
