In the custody of E. T. Maaa, dep
uty United States marshal, and Mrs.
3. C. Sampson, police matron. Dr.
Marie Equl started Sunday night on
her Journey to San Quentin penlten-i
tlary, where-she is -to serve a year
and a day. She was sentenced tai
three years in prison uid fined $500
for violation of the espionage law,
but the president commuted the sen
tence. Unsuccessful efforts- were made by
United States Marshal George Alexan
der to keep Dr. Equl's departure a secret-
Mrs. M. F. Wall, a close friend,
learned of the arrangements, as well as
members of the press, and visited Dr.
Equl at the station before the train left
at 11 :30 p. m.
Before leaving Portland, Dr. Equl
expressed a hope that she would be par
doned before she had served her time.
As serving of sentence does not begin
until Dr. Equi is received at the prison,
she waa anxious to be on her way, as
all the time spent here in the county
jail Is for naught.
Since Dr. Equi surrendered herselif
Friday she has been continuously in a
happy mood and did not cause offi
cials any trouble. Matron Sampson
was chosen to accompany Dr. Equl be
cause of her long experience at the po
lice station in handling women prison
ers. Dr. Equl has also been in Mrs.
Sampson's care so many times when
under arrest, that she and Mrs. Samp
son are good friends.
Resolutions protesting against the
conviction and imprisonment of Dr.
Equi were adopted at a mass meeting
held in the Machinists' hall Sunday

Henry Turrish of Puluth, Minn.,
head of 'the Potlatch Lumber company ;
Coffin of the Western Timber company;
A. J. Keith, president of the Kir Tree
company, and other owners of timber
land in Columbia, Clatsop and Wash
ington counties, are interested in the
development of the iron ore deposits.
The three companies named own oyer
80,000 acres of land in the district,
much of which is said to be underlaid
with mineral.
DEPOSITS OS XEHALEX '
In Western Columbia county along
the Nehalem river are deposits of coal,
much of which Is said to be of a qual
ity suitable for coking. With the de
velopment of smelters foiyhandllng the
iron-ores of the district at Is proposed
to open these coal deposits and work
the two industries in conjunction.
Finley and his associates have ex
perimented in the use of charcoal r in
lieu of coke with much success and if
this method is adopted a market will be
opened for waste wood products frpm
the mills and logging camps. Coke for
iron emelting is also offered in large
quantities by coal mine operators in
Washington.
The Oregon bureau of mines and ge
ology has made a number of tests of
iron ore taken from deposits at Pisgah
mountain and Bunker Hill and, accord
ing to H. M. Parks, director of the bu
reau, these tests show contents of hem
atite ranging from 43 per cent to 58
per cent, with a small amount of sul
phur. Clay and silica are the principal
impurities, according to the tests made.
LABORATORY INSTALLED
The bureau of mines and geology has
installed a laboratory in the Chamber
of Commerce building for testing lignite,
bituminous and other coals found; in
Western Oregon and It is expected by
officials of the bureau that these experi
ments will be of great assistance in the
development of the iron and coal indus
tries in the state.
C. A. Finley stated today that his
holdings in the Pisgah mountain dis
trict are valued at approximately $25,000.
The timber companies owning land in
the lroh ore district are capitalized at
about Sff.000,000. Several thousand acres
of land in the district are owned, by
small holders.
NO STOCK FOR SALE
No corporation has yet been organ
ized by the timbermen forvthe develop
ment of the iron mines, according to
W. K. Coffin of the Western Timber
company. "We have been making in
vestigations as to the responsibility of
successful mining operations in Colum
bia county for some time and the pros
pects seem bright for such a develop
ment," said Coffin. ""Whatever corpo
ration is formed .by the timbermen Inter
ested will probably be capitalised by
them. We do not expect to offer stock
in the company for public purchase,"
The Milton Development company,
organized among local capitalists by J.
W. Flannery of Cleveland, Ohio, and
A. M. Martin of Chicago, also has inter
est in the development of iron deposits
in Columbia county.
