Miss Skinner said that Potts at first wanted the remains embalmed until Coroner Glaze told him it might reveal the cause of death. Then, she said, POtts said he had talked to his wife Just before she died, and had promised her he would not have her embalmed. The sensation of the day came when Miss Shive, a striking blonde, under cross examination, leaned forward with emotion and said Mrs. Potts had given her to understand that they made their living by blackmail, and that Potts waa a blackmailer of women. She told Mrs. Potts, she said, the evening be fore her death of the insistant pro posals Potts had made her, and that Potts was continually approaching other women. There Is considerable evidence show Ing that Potts and his wife were In a continual state ot turmoil and that he told numerous persons that his wife was a burden, not a wife, and that in fact she had but a short time to live. us up ouuv ipcl wnere w re mained stationary for a time until th clouds of the storm obscured the sun slble, the governor said, for tfie benefit and we dropped to 500 feet and re- of the state land board, which has been iHCa outhward course. besieged with offers of promoters to v- planning 10 cross the buy or lease the lakes from the state """"J " a " ""r .aiouni Jei- The board, owing to complications arls tirtn .v 7 .Z K, V n tnat mrec- 'ne " connection with various offers. inh... rm'"';:.f:":"!""ea"r recently turned down an offer of $2. i-M -V u lu """t ine 000,000 for the lakes. ----v ujl Dfrry whs w npn hi Petition for Mail Route.

Salem, Or., June 12. Positions have shifted again in the exciting race for the fourth place on the Republican ticket for supreme court Judge, and Justlcn Charles L. McNary now leads Judge Henry L. Benson by seven votes, according to apparently authentic ad vices received last night and today by Justice McNary from persons who have rechecked the tally sheets in a number of the : counties. . Yesterday morning, owing to an error of 20 votes found in Multnomah county, Benson was credited with being seven in the lead. A telegram from Prineville to day advised Justice McNary that "a plain error had been found in East Prineville, which counted you out of 10 votes. " Another error was found in Wasco county, which gave McNary five votes. In. Baker Benson is report ed to have lost one vote. In Harney county discovered errors reduce Mc Nary's vote by three, and Benson gains one, making a total loss of four for McNary. In Yamhill county McNary is reported to have gained two. These errors apparently give McNary a lead over Benson of seven votes. But Jus tice McNary said today that the vote was too close to let the mattes drop. He made the following statement: "Prom advices at hand, several coun ties in the state, where a recheck of the tally sheets have been made, I am apparently seven votes ahead of Judge Benson."
