"A tifle shot fired at a Moating log In the Willamette river by a guard fro mthe state military police at 1 efclock yertorday morning, is the only incident In the last fortr-eignt hours to cause any hint of a thrill in the man hnnt for Jeff Baldwin. es-j caped convict: The .guard was sta tioned on the Salem river front and saw an object floating in the middle o fthe stream. In the darkness th object had the rppearance of a cano, and the guard thought he heard tin splash of an oar. He fired one shot and when the object : floated nearer he was phle to determine that it was a log. The officers defend the ac tion of. the guard in firing the shot and persons living along the river are warned not to use boat at night without a light, while the man hunt is on. ; May Br Coin North. A sergeant of the state pollce who Is stationed at Wllsoavllle reported In yesterday afternoon that a man had been seen on the Oreogn Electric between that place and Malloy an1 that motorcycles had . been sent to intercept him. The Incident server to strengthen the belief that Baldwin is nicking his way north. . The state police and penitentiary posse yesterday were working on a t lew at Woodburn. It has developed that a house near that place was en tered by burglars Monday night. clothing exchanged by the Intruder and food taken from the dwelling. A brown coat was fand near the place. The Importance of the clew l sdimlnished somewhat by the fact that .a prisoner was. released from the county Jail here recently and igven a brown coat when he left the orison. Some of Baldwin's pursuers believe It was the released prisoner who entered the house near Wood- burn, not the fugitive convict. Not Afraid of Rain.. The officers do not believe the la clement weather of the last several days will discourage Baldwin In his effort to get out of the state. He encountered similar weather when me escaped before and after Vs cap ture tol dthe guard he m-a In better condition after being snaked by the rain than before. Baldwin Is some times troubled with rheumatism In his feet. This was partially respons ible for his capture -at the time of the former break from the prison and the officers believe It may im pede his progress now. , After the previous break Baldwin and another fugitive lived mainly on chickens stolen from farmyards,- but were compelled to eat. I J em half cooked over meager fires, because of dancer of being bettved by lighter smoke from their hidden-camps. Tt is believed Baldwin Is now sustain ing himself ia .m similar manner. ; Olcott Predicts He WW Take Big Lead in State Ben W. Olcott. in a statement is sued yesterday, predicted that he will carry the state for the Republi can gubernatorial nomination by a lead of from &000 to 10.000 votes. He declares that he expects to carry not. less than twenty-two counties and that Multnomah county will give him a handsome lead. Olcott says be is basing his state ment upon a systematic survey made of nearly every precinct in the state. and asserts that the reports reach Ing him are more favorable for his success than pre-election reports In any other campaign in which he has been a participant.

On the other hand, banks and citizens suffering severe losses from investments in the securities of these entirely legitimate and once promisiii g enterprises will be discouraged from lending money to the Government or deprived of the means to lend. The first and most direct relief to the public utilities corporations can be given by the State public utilities commissions and municipal and local authorities, with the broad-minded co-operation of the people generally, un derstanding the necessities of war and realizing that the more promptly it burdens are accepted the sooner they will be lifted. It is essential that forbearance and consideration be exercised by the State Commissions and municipal authorities, and that the corporations also be permitted to make such additions to their charges for service as will keep in them the breath of solvency, protect their owners against unjust loss, and give them a basis of credit on which they may obtain the funds with which to meet the strain put on them by the Govern ment needs. The breaking down of these Corporations would be a national calamity. Because of the gravity of the situation in Congress and the public this regard, I am moved to ask for it the careful attention of the ft PORTLAND RAILWAY LIGHT & POWER CO.
