UNITED STEEL PAYS
REGULAR DIVIDEND
Hotted Prew leased Wire.)
New York. April 26. The United
States Steel corporation yesterday
declared Un regular dividend of 1 per
cent on its preferred stock and 114 per
cent on the common stock. The quar
terly earnings show a total of 23.
600,000, compared with $25,990,000 for
the last- quarter.
Portland will benefit greatly Insofar
as. postal service Is concerned through
the securing of the chairmanship of the
senate committee on postal affairs by
Senator Bourne, it la believed by Post
master Merrick, and In fact the prob
able selection of Bourpe for the chair
manahlp of this committee has slready
had ita effect In making it easier to se
cure the additional help needed in the
Portland finsi office.
The last half dosn requests for bet
ter 'service for Portland have been act
ed .upon with remarkable promptness,
It la said, all due to the fact that
Bourne baa been considered the most
probable candidate for chairman of thla
committee-
rertLandl Ton Vow,
Probably the moat important reault
of having an Oregon senator at the head
of this ' committee will be that Port
land, which hitherto has been uniform
ly discriminated against when It came
to securing thet1ume the postal service
had for the Pacific northwest, may in
the future get more nearly her share
of department headquarters.
For instsnce tha headquarters for the
railway mall service for the northwest
are now at Seattle, although Portland
la mucn nearer in geogTspnicai ana
commercial center of the territory, be-
sides being more of a ralroad center
than the Sound city.
The headquarters or the post offlco
Inspectors for the northwest are In
Spokane, far removed from the activi
ties where the post office Inspectors are
most badly needed. The ned of a
city Inspector In Pot Uand Is' a pressing
one, it Is said. At present Portland has
to wait If an Inspector Is needed, some
times ten or twelve days, until one can
find time to come here from some other
city.
Action Delayed.
There are many complaints from peo
ple who have lost articles in the mall
or who are concerned In cases where
the malls have been used to defame or
defraud, and frequently It Is Impossible
to get action In these matters within a
month of the time complaint Is filed.
The post office Inspectors have an of
fice in the federal building, but It Is
usually closed , because the Inspectors
are out of the city, going over accounts
of a post office In Curry county or
Malheur county or working on some
caae In Seattle or Spokane.
The help bf an Influential friend In
the matter of the new post office build
ing may also be valuable. It Is desired
that the work on the building be pushed
as much as possible when the site has
been selected and powerful 'Influence at
Washington may be required to see that
Portland, which' needs a new building
worse' than any other city In the coun
try, probably, Is advanced on the super
vising architect's Hit so that construc
tion plans will be avatlable without do-
KLAMATH CO. SHERIFF

tSnectal Dtupatch to.Tb" Joornst. I
Klamath Falls, Or.. April 26. The
burning of the Shook barn and other In
cendiary flrea near Bonanza, southeast
ern Klamath county, will probably re
main always uncleared, the- only tan
gible hope of fastening guilt having
disappeared with the release from the
county Jail of Cora Stark, the woman
held on suspicion. Mrs. Stark, who was
formerly Cora Seaton and lived in the
Shook neighborhood, was under consid
eration by two grand Juries', both of
which failed to indict. No evidence suf
ficient to warrant bringing her before
third Jury was gotten together by
either ahertff or district attorney, so
she waa let go.
