Frank Caviness', as Leader of
Notorious I Gang, Smuggled
in Tons of Opium Over the

DIRECTED OPERATIONS
FROM FARM PLANT
Criminal Career Started When
; Still in Teens; Born in
'. Baker City, Or. '
Frank Caviness, known both to the po
lice and government officers of " the
VnltedN States and Canada, must have
got a tip that the federal authorities
Were' on his trail with a warrant for
Smuggling, for last night when Deputy
United States Marshal "Bill"; Griffith
.arrived in , Eugene", iOr,, where Cavlness
and his gang have been making their
headquarters -on a'; farm, he found his
fluarry had fled. '-'; ,, .
Cavlness Is wanted as the ; .accused
leader of a gang of daring .smugglers,
which for more thaa a year has been
eluding the vigilance of customs offl-
: cers and which, during- that time, smug
gled in 'tons' of ttplum 'over t tha horder
between Canada and the United States.
And, although the government officers
won't: say much about It, they believe
If they capture Cavlness they can force
blm to reveal the Mrtlsg p1are of the
original enjrrave-d plate, from " which
thousands of dollars In notes on the

moved to the jurisdiction Of the federal
court of Oregon. Ahout two .weeks ago,
after- customs officers tried In vain
for more than a year to' capture Cavl
ness or members of his criminal band.
detectives found the leader had for that
length of time made a farm near Eu
gene his hiding place, and from there
, directed the operations of his band. But
Caylness, who lsln touch with hundreds
cf criminals on- the Pacific coast, must
have got a hunch that the officers were
ftr him, for he find. . , ' ;
. Cavlness' capture would clear up a
lot of things about rhlch the federal
officers want to know. They would
practically like to know about the-New
Brunswick -bank note plate, although
they say-It is none of their business,
for the notes manuiactured with It are
not counterfeit because ttie issue was
withdrawn 40 years ago, One odd little
feature Is that when Cavlness and his
gang, were In jail In Portland In 1908
and were tried on charges of using the
msils for fraudulent purposes they were
et free. - ' -. ;

Back of the story of Cavineas' life are
, many Interesting facts. He was born
In Baker City, Or., and before- he was

about him R. H., "Wells, alias Charles

Edward Sheehan. who goes by the name
of "Doe," And James Stanley. .
Back In 1859, or 'thereabouts, a state
bank at New Brunswick, Ga., known as
the Planters' & Traders' bank, began,
as did many other small banks, to man

cotton and products, during the Civil
war It failed and the notes became val

; Seattle, June.' 15. The stampede to

denly as it arose. Steamship travel to
Alaska Is very little nnove normal. Con
tinual reports from Fairbanks, such as
a cablegram esterday from -W. B.

"rank failure" have killed the wild en
thusiasm that arose over the tales 'that
came out of the interior, of "35 miles

, While-the reports are constant from
Alaska that the Iditarod never has been
promising,, th deprecation of the new
diggings is cot unanimous., and a fairly
steady travel will continue all summer.
Coincident with the sudden end of the
Iditarod stampede, come sensational re
ports from Stewart City, B. C, near the
Alaskan line. -A mammoth gold -reef,

that Plntro Fonegona; a carpenter, was

This, of course, Is denied by all who are
promoting It and there may be pome
grounds for these denials. But the fact
remains that both men have been negli
