OFFICIALS ARE PUZZLED
AT ACTIONS OF SU8PECT
Thinking of Beginning Investigation
Along New Lines to Determine
Cause of Perry's Peculiar Actions
in Face of Widow's Statements.
Official of Washington county are
vainly trying to explain the amaslnc
"mm" of George Perry, who has been
publicly accused of complicity In the
Forest Grove bank robbery and the sub
sequent murder of Carey at. Snyder.
His attitude of utter Indifference Is
the most startling feature of the fam
ous ease. Knowing that Washington
county officials hare In their ppaaaa
slon evidence which points directly to
his guilt and knowing that a warrant
may be Issued for his arrest at any
time, he has mad no effort to escape,
.nor has ha shown the least apprshen-
slon as to the result.
Parry Is at Independence, Missouri.
At frequent intervals hs gives out 1n
tervlsws denying the statements of Mrs.
Madge Snyder and at the earns time
casting insinuations which she refuses
to explain. Perry's wonderful compos
ure la causing the officials to begin In
vestigations along altogether different
Unas.
hows Wo Alarm Whatever.
Perry Is one of a class of alleged
"crooks" who, as a rule, do not hesitate
to vanish aa soon aa suspicion is dl
fee ted toward them. In many instances
fee has been under suspicion for various
crimes and Is well known to the police
of Kansas City and Independence. He
knows aa well aa any one how one of
Ills reputation and habits Is supposed
to be guilty of any crime of which hs Is
accused uattl he establishes his Inno
cence. He also knows every accusa
tion that has been made by the widow
and how a chain of apparently incrimi
nating evidence has bean drawn about
him.
, But hs has shown no alarm whatever.
On the contrary, he has related his side
of the story with aa much freedom as
Mrs. Snyder told hers, and to many of
the officials his story carried aa much
conviction as did that of the woman.
Tha widow attributes his Indifference
to bis belief that she knows nothing of
the plans ho is accused of having made.
Her explanation, however, la regarded
aa of no consequence.
ifhlla officials profess to believe In
the guilt of Perry and to hare almost
conclusive evidence of his guilt, thsy
refuse to cause his arrest. They freely
admit, however, that practically the
only evidence they have consists of the
statements and accusations of the
woman. They aay the reason they do
not Issue a warrant la that they think
It unwise to rely solely on her testi
mony. Perry In ail probability has al
ready retained an attorney, and Wash
ington county officials fear that a
clever crqss-questlonsr would play
havoc with their case. Therefore they

They Are as True aa

THREE HOTEL CUE8TS
WITH THE SAME NAME
Another Who Three Times in aa
Many Tears- Visited the Hostelry
and Was Always Assigned to the
Same Room.
Nathaniel K. Clark, clerk of the Port
land hotel, was telling stories about "ar
rivals" yesterday, and here are a few
of them:
When I was working In a certain
hotel In a certain Canadian city," aald
Mr. Clark. "I remember distinctly ons
morning of three men arriving at the
hotel. Now theee men came on different
trslns snd st different times In ths
morning, but each bore the name of
Kllbourne. They had never met before
and were not related to each other.
Now, don't you think that a peculiar
coincidence? And It Is true. too.
That reminds me, he added, "of an
Incident that happened yesterday. A
gentleman cams to the hotel and regis
tered. I assigned him to room Sio. He
was shown to his abiding place by one
of the bellboys and I . had forgpttsn
about him. I was busy at my work a.
few minutes later when he stepped up
to the desk and told Ms that he was
sitting In his room when he happened to
remember that he had Just come down
from Seattle. While In 'the Bound city
he was stopping at a hotel where he bad
room 841. Be thought It rather, pecu
liar that he should have- the same room
in two hotels straight hand running.
So did I, bat here Is one about roam 45
that la still more peculiar.
"A gentleman from Indiana, arrived
the other day and was assigned to
room See. While a guest of the house
he came to me one day and said: 'It la
rather peculiar that I should have room
645 again. I have ijQpyitl at thle hotel
three times la three yeara and each
time I have had room S4S. I wonder
why It happens that way?'
"Now there are many things," con
tinued Mr. Clark, "that come up In a
hotel man's Ufa and these are but a
sample of them. There are others that
I could tell, but I see by ths expression
on your faces that you havs your doubts
as to the veracity of the stories I have
told you. Still they are Just as true aa
I am standing here. If you don't be-He-ve
them I will ehow you the names
of the men on the register and then
take you up and ehow you the room."

The oar shortage In the Pacific north
west Is unprecedented, even at this sea
son when there la always the heavleet
demand of the year for care to move
the crope. The transportation problem
Is having a strong effect on timber
values. A well-known eastern timber
dealer said:
'Ths demand for timber aa an Invest
ment for future profit Is good enough
in the Interior, but for mill purpose'
the need Is for Umber that Is Immedi
ately accessible to mills that can be lo
cated for eargo shipments. The lum
bering Interests are perhaps the great
est sufferers from the woeful lack of
railroad cars, and the short-sightedness
of railroad ewnere who have failed to
provide for the Increasing business.
Lumber Is a low grade commodity, and
aa the freight rate does not offer eo
lsrge a return to the railroad It la dis
posed to furnish cars to the lumber
mill after everybody else hss been sup
plied. As there are not enough cars to
go ground, the lumber mills suffsr
heavy lossee continually by being un
able to deliver their products within
the time limits allowed by the customer.

"For theae reasons timber accessible
to navigation is la demand and new
mills In Oregon from this time forward
will be built to a large extent on loca
tions where they can command cargr
shipments. If the lumbering interests
ware forced to rely wholly on the rail
road companies for transportation faclli
tlee there would not be half of the
lumber mills In Oregon running today."
The Northern Pacific Is claiming that
the scarcity of cars at this time le n
greater than It has been in former
years. The men who demand cars for
shipping tbelr products say It la grow
ing worse every year. The Great
Northern claims, it hss enough cars for
normal demand and that there la no
occasion for complaint. The O. R. A
N. has. It la said, refused to let any
more of lta cars go to ths Great North
ern and claims that the Hill road has
already In use about 5.000 O. R. A N
ears. The extreme '.stringency on th
Southern Pacific contlnuea and It will
be many months before the oar shops
can turn out the cars ordered by the
Harrlman companies to relieve the
growing shortage. Even after present
orders are filled It le expected by ship
pers that thsy will not be half suf
ficient to meet the needs of buelneaa
Interests.
While population, banking, telephone,
postal, manufacturing and other lines
of commerce have doubled In Oregon
and the Pactflo northwest generally, the
supply of '"railroad cars has been but
slightly Increased. The Harrlman and
Hill lines have an average of but four
and five cars to the mile, while the
Santa Fe has double that number, al
though the Increase of business in the
southwest has not been nearly so great
as In the northwest The ruinous car
shortage Is a natural result.
