(Spwltl Dlptch to Ttm Journal.)
Butte, Mont., Detf. SI. William T.
Clark, an old tlm prospector and a
familiar character In this city, was
found murdered in a lonely cabin on
Fish creek In the mountains south of

; A neighbor found Clark's frosen body
late yesterday when' he went up to the
told prospector's cabin to. sharpen some
tdols, Clark had been shot twice, caus

breast. He apparently had been shot
from ambush and had made one effort
.to fight for his life, as a rifle was

empty shell. i

number or possibly 11 or li votes. In
addition to these two blocks of -votes
Is Campbell with his two colleagues in
Clackamas county. These men have so
far refused to go into caucus. There' are
14 Statement No. . 1 meniberswho have
agreed to go in a body to some speaker'
ship candidate when the proper time
-omes,- and thejr will not ko to Mo Ar
thur. Besides these are those members
who may be called middle-of the road
men who want a caucus -but will not
pledge themselves tetany one In pr-llcular-at
this time. - j . -
Bean his an understanding with th
Multnomah men some eight In number,
that as soon as he is able to show 13
votes sure they will go to him and' thus
give him the majority of 27 necessary to
secure the nomination. The Multnomah
men are a majority of the 14 Statement
No. 1 men who have agreed to- go to-
g ether and It Is safe to say that should
fan pick up IS votes he will, be given
the added 14.. r
Instead of Bean being out of -the race
his strength Is so formidable that Mi
Arther is willing to break aw&v from
the antl-Chamberlaln tight that has been
waged up to this time by the -Fulton
following and sign up in an agreement
to keep Tils hands and his influence oft
the senatorial question entirely. For
the past week or more MoArthur has
been negotiating with statement No. 1
men, complaining - that he was being
discriminated against because of the
statement prevlouly made by Bean on
the senatorial issue, and contending that
he was willing to put himself down In
writing to the effect that he would not
allow himself or his influence as
speaker to enter Into the senatorial
fight to defeat Chamberlain. So , far.
however, he baa not written out his
statement for any. member, though it is
expected that he will do so as a last re
sort to put himself back on an. equal
footing 'with Bean before the other
members of the house.
Judging from the changing conditions
the organization will be a fight be
tween the different candidates on their
own personal strength Irrespective of
the senatorial issue neiore the next
three weeks has brought -the 'organiza
tion to the last day. The Fulton move
ment to break down the Statement No.
1 majority- seems to have . blown up
and the tendency is to eliminate it
from - the organisation. . However, .the
fact that McArthur was the leader of
the Fulton forces and plan in the house
has caused the statement no. l mem
bera to look at him with their eyes
wide ' open. Before he Is given much
Statement No. 1 support he will, in the
language or one oz tne Muitnoman
members, "have - to show them" that.
he will not mis; in the senatorial fight.
At the present time therefore Bean
sems tq have the best of it. He would
have the best of it in a--caucus and
he would not lose at all- by going
onto the floor of the house with his
fight. There Is no change in the situa
tion. The 14 Statement No, 1 men
are sitting tight, ; waiting for Bean to
show a nucleus of 13 votes. The mid
dle of-the road men, .are waiting for
Bean to show what-he can do. They do
not contemplate going to MoArthur, but
nave not signea up witn any one. jeotn
bands win go to Bean it ne snows any
thing like a winning streak. . If Bean
wants to be speaker, all he has to do
is to get IS votes and the rest will be
handed to- mm. ir ne can not no that
there may be some sneaker who has
not yet entered the fight, but Bean
thinks he can gather in the is.

Las Angeles. Dec. 21. Jerome T.
Harvey, an aged farmer from Leon.
Iowa, is near death at the receiving
hospital today after being;, struck by a
streetcar last night. , . ,
-Harvey dodged an automobile and
was hit by the car. - His v bodv was
hurled from the fender against the

then dropped back into th fender iimt
as the car came to a-standstfiL

"Whether or not my father returns
to Washington in time to assume tho
office of governor on the first day of
his term, will not make any material
difference. In so far as the execution of
his plans is concerned. All that Is ar
ranged. There will be no clash at
Olympia. Everything Is harmonious,"
said Howard Cosgrove, son of Oover-nor-etect
S. O. Cosgrove of Washing
ton, this morning. The governor's son
has just returned from a visit to his
father at Paso Robles and says that the
latter a health is rapidly Improving,
"This newspaper talk about the con
tlngencies that may arise In the event
that my father should not come home
is not worrying either him or me. We
bold that lie becomeB governor as soon
as the certificate or his election Is Is
sued by the legislature." continued Mr.
Cosgrove. "There Is no provision in
the constitution of the state by -which
a governor is required to take the oath
of office, but simply as a matter of pre
caution my father will be sworn in at
Paso Robles in case he should not de
cide to go to Olympia to be on hand at
tne nooning session or tne legislature.
"My father is able to make the trip
to Olympia at any time now If It were
necessary, but it Is not probable that
he will. The. question of his coming
north at tnis time is merely one oi ad
visabllity. When I was sent for two
weeks ago Dr. Sawyer believed that my
rattier would- (tie Deiore l could ar
rive. The sudden change for the bet
ter was a complete surprise to the nhy
slcians at Paso Robles, but they now
say that recovery Is assured and that
my lather is absolutely out or danger.
"As,, to the probable distribution of
political patronage, l am unable to
make any official announcement today.
but several appointments will be made
cubllo soon. No oiriclal announcements,
hv fact, have as yet been made by my
father., He does not know with a cer
