Cer tain Officials Beoense of rolitlcal B.a som Counterfeiting Oaaaa Are Being Zaaulred Into. Tba federal grand Jury received an admonition this morning from Judge Bellinger that politics must not enter 'Into thalr deliberation nor lnnd them to spare any public official whose acta have been deserving of condemnation or punlahment The warning ia regarded aa significant evidence that a rigid In- qulry ia to be madn Into tha conduct of isms of tha government offices In thla state,' and particular attention Is likely to be directed to the land office at La Orahde. One or more membera of the jury have displayed a reluctance to make thla Inquiry, for political reaaorta, and the matter waa at once brought to - Judge Belltnger'a attention by the fore man, A. T. Webb. ' Tha fudge's Admonition. ' ' Tba grand Jurors appeared In the . United 'States courtroom at. 10 -o'clock thla morning for the uaual roll call ' and as aoon aa thla waa concluded Judge Bellinger addressed the jury as follows "It haa been suggested to me by your foreman that aome of your number have cruplea about Investigating the conduct of public officials on tha ground that , to do ao would be a reflection-upon the appointing power and upon tha Influences that secured tha appointment.-' If any Juror entertains suchscruples It ia matter of aurprlse and regret This 'jury waa chosen with great care and Mts members' are supposed to be men of ' high intelligence. Your oath sufficiently indicates your duty, and I shall read it, to you again," , After reading tha language of the oath previously. administered, to , tha '.- Jury, ' Judge Bellinger concluded impressively: The truth muat be" your sole guide In returning Indictments. Remember ,that no peraon ia so high aa to be above , the law." The Jury then retired to resume Its dellberatlpns. - '. Court Decline to Talk. When questioned later as to the oc casion for the warning which he had given tha grand Jury, Judge Bellinger aid: "I can say nothing further except that tha foreman told ma that ha had dls- covered an unwlllingneaa on the part of "-one or more Juror a to, Investigate the - conduct of certain public offlclala. I do not know what officials he referred to, for I know no more than anyone elae as to the grand Jury's investigations." According to the , official roll, 1 of . the 22 membera of the grand Jury are farmera, drawn from all parts of the state j two are capitalists, and one. A. T. Webb, the foreman, is a merchant and the only Portland man on the Jury. It would, be atrange if. among euch . number of Jurors, there were not one or two who would be reluctant on ao count of personal or political considera tions, to investigate the alleged frauda In the land offlcea. Judge Bellinger's warning; was calculated to bring the jurore to a realisation of their duty. , Counterfeiters Case. ..... ' A considerable part of thla morning's session was occupied with the hearing or testimony relative to the operations of a quartet of alleged handlers of coun terfeit money. George Stratton, William , Irwin. Austin Wells and Cleve Cochran were arrested in different parts- of the state, and all of them are accused of , having in their possession counterfeit 15 gold pieces. All of them are now ,in Jail except Cochran, who was re leased on 11,000 ball. Colonel 8. C. . Spencer, who has been retained aa his attorney, says that Cochran is but 17 years old, and seems to have been in a measure the dupe of his more experl enced companions. The boy's home is . in Grant county. A number of witnesses were in 'attendance this morning from I'enaieton, where Wells was arrested, rot Ylolattoa of Postal raws. The grand Jury was occupied yester day in Investigating the charges against J. c coggins and Fred Hewitt, both of fenders against the postal laws. Cog gins Is charged with having raised money orders, ualng chemicals to ef feet the alterations. He is said to have passed money orders - thus tampered witn, dow in this state and in Washing ton. Fred Hewitt was formerly postmaster , at UKian, and Is accused of having made false returna to the postal department . and of having used stamps for the pur pose of purchasing merchandise. Washington street proved the necessity of better fire protection in the metropo lis of Oregon. Kven to the most Inex perienced the Inadequacy of Portland's fire department to rope with the flames presented Itself. While giving the fire men their Just dues for the brave stand they made, It munt be stated In truth that It was only the kindness of Provi dence that prevented the wiping out of a large portion of Kast Portland Had even an ordinary breeze been blowing at the time no one ran tell where the flames would have been atopped. Had such a lire started In other cities much larger than Portland and boasting of far better Are service, the firemen would have been appalled at the prospect of a aweeplng conftagra tlon. The call system was seen at Its best Saturday night. The fire occurred at time when all the companies were full handed and thla fact waa fortunate. While the rail men are willing, many of them are not sufficiently experienced to bs of much use, and thla is one weak spot In the present system. ' Bloeked Streets Binder. . Perhaps the greatest handicap under which the department worked Saturday nigbt was the blocked streets. On ac icount of the dangerous condition of. the elevated roadways the streets for blocks around are closed to traffic. Conse quently the firemen dared not drive close to the fire for fear the horses and ap paratus would be precipitated to the ground many feet below. As a result the hose had to be dragged aeveral bun dred feet by hand and even with the combined efforts of each company thla was a laborious taak. This resulted in some delay, Engine 4 was driven along the roadway adjoining the railroad track to East Washington street. There It waa found that the steamer could not get near to the hydrant because the track waa not planked and the company had to cut out the engine and use direct hydrant pressure. Another great danger was the draft animals had to be tied up where some of them shivered for hours In the Cold night air because tha drivers had no time to blanket thorn. That thla is poor pol Icy was shown some months ago when an engine team ran away at a fire, while the driver was busy. One of tha horses waa ao badly hurt that It has not yet recovered. Calls Delayed. Because the department waa handl capped by lack of men there waa a The Closing: Day.of the Piano Sal is in sight and if you have a,.' not already added your name lay in sending in mi cans ior extra ap- q eflg i,s ftf IimIt. nrifMI vcni namtiin ni.trlrt Thief TfnlHon h.rl . lv ulc t 1UCK UI1CS, VUU line of hose laid along the elevated road- had better, do SO at OflCC, for way on Eaat Washington from Union L , .

The chief had to hold the notsle while the plpemen straightened out the line. Before the water waa turned on the blaae grew- so hot that the chief, who had not time to don his helmet or coat, was scorched about the head and face. He called for help, and Chief Campbell sent men to his assistance. In full-paid departments the chiefs never have to handle the lines of hose. Their dutlea are to place the atreama and station the companies and direct the sending In of extra calls. For the past week either chemical No. 1 or hose 1, situated at Second and Oak streets, in the heart of the city, haa been out of commission because of the lack of sufficient apparatus to meet an emergency. The flanges on the huba of the hose reel broke and thla apparatua was out of service because there is not an extra hose wagon in the city. - The wheels have been replaced now, but one of the horses on the chemical is sick and as there are no extra horses the chemical engine Is not responding to fires. The hose company would have been of great help at Saturday ntght'a blase, but It waa out of service, because the men dared not drive with the broken wheels.

The tribunal states that there was Insufficient evidence, owing to an 'absence of complete surveys, to Identify the mountains whlcfy correspond , to those intended by the treaty. This statement contemplates and suggests a . Joint survey of that portion by the two a. governments. The mountains referred to are In the Eastern range, between Katie Needle and Devil's Thumb. Such survey would not In any sense interfere with the award. ' Washington, Oct. 20. The state de partment this morning received the offi cial advices from London confirming the news that the award of the Alaskan commission was signed last night.

Taok of Apparatus a Drawback. The lack of apparatua waa alsc forcibly illustrated. Several more en gines could have been worked to ad vantage, but Chief Campbell realised that there waa danger of other Area and he did not send In a general alarm. The wiadom of thfs was shown when another alarm waa received from Third and Waahlngton streets and a blase was discovered In Cooper's tailor shop. This was extinguished by other apparatus which - had not been called to the East Side. A flreboat would have been a great help had It been In commission. This could have been stationed at the foot of Eaat Washington street and linea of hose laid from the river to the fire. It would have been of much assistance. The fact that the drlvera have to as sist at fires, a practice cot in vogue In up-to-date departments, but necessary here because of tha lack of men, showed that It la no economy for the horses to CITY OFFICERS TALK OF THE FIRE BOAT TXDBBSTAXBXXO WRI TXB XTX- BXBWBXTXBS WAS TXAT XT BOAT WAS WBOTXSBD TXAT BATES WOUXD BB MATSBXAU.T ' BB- DTCID BT XXSUBAXCB BTBX. ..Entirely New Line..

'I cannot think that the insurance people have decided to class the pro posed flreboat as anything short of a first-rate craft," said Mayor Williams. I cannot see that such a position would be tenable. We had all hoped to see a steel flreboat, but that wae out of the question, and the wooden vessel is Just as useful In these waters. The only difference between the two characters of vessels Is that the steel craft will last longer. It cannot do any more ef fective work. I really cannot believe that the statements quoted are Intended in the light they are represented." City Attorney McNary was even more emphatic in his statements. 'If the in surance people take the stand they are represented recently in several inter views, I cannot conceive but that they are trying to work a "bunco game' upon years it had been' the practice in this oity for the person robbed to pay the amount of money loaned upon stolen ar ticles, or else to bring a suit in reple vln.
