Heav ily armetf and bearing evidences of having traveled far without much nourishment, Adolph Jules, the Italian murderer who last TueBday killed two men In Western Pacific camp No. 20 in the Big Bar hills, boldly walked into the town of Mer rimac last night, went to a store and asked for a bottle of beer. On be ing told there was no beer for sale, he struck off again into the woods before anyone had time to give the alarm. Merrimao Is on the boundary be tween Plumas and Butte counties, and today posses, from both counties are looking for the man. The officers are working toward each other, and are con fident of bagging their quarry before night. Jules possessed the boldness born of desperation last night. Every one in the county is looking- for the murderer and he took big; chances in going into Merrtmac. He walked right up the main street with his rifle' over his shoulder and two pistols hanging from his belt His clothing; was torn almost to shreds, as thouirh he had scrambled through the underbrtlsh in his long tramp. His face was covered with an unkempt beard and drawn with hunger and thirst. As soon as the alarm had been spread about Merrlmac, word was sent to Sheriff Chubbick, who was at Orovllle attending the Inquest over the bodies of the murdered men. He Immediately wired to Quincy and two deputy sheriffs were sent out rrom buck s rancn. Meanwhile, Sheriff Chubbick left Oro ville on a railroad automobile over the Western Paciflo tracks for Berry creek There he organised a posse and struck out this morning toward Merrlmac to meet the Plumas county posse coming in. The original posse sent from Orovllle Tuesday night is still searching the oountry south and east or Big Bar. Chubbick stated before he started out this morning that he expected to round up the murderer before night. He expects a stiff fight, and it Is like ly that the Italian will never allow him self to be taken alive.

AT IE Bonds Are Available for Im provements If City Can Procure Right to Certain Waterfront Properties Alleged Overcharges. Under the terms of the people's initiative declaration at the last elec tion, Portland is now face to face with the building or purchasing of docks and the city ownership and operation of docks. Under a similar system San Francisco has become the greatest shipping center on the Pacific coast of the United States. Portland has available $500,000 in bonds for the acquiring of or build ing of public docks, yet it finds its waterfront all but usurped by cor porations. The Independent shlo owners and shipping companies doing business here are urging that this question is the most Important confronting the city, and is paramount to every other navi gation problem. It is declared that the city of Portland should immediately take steps to provide deckage of ample capacity for all vessels coming into this port at a cost not to exceed 6 cents per ton for all tonnage passing over the docks, or make these docks absolutely free if such a thing la pos- siDie. Improvements Discussed. Various ways, many ot which seem feasible and desirable, are being dis cussed lor making Portland the most popular port of entry on the Pacific coast.
