Itufus Cantroll, tho Indianapolis
gravo robber, was found guilty Thurs
day night. ,
London, April 25. There is a
strong belief in government circles
that Russia in her demands on China
relative to Manchuria, is trying to
perpetrate a bluff to see how strong
tho Anglo-Japanese alliance is. It is
believed that Russia will make a dis
play of force in an endeavor to oaus.i
England to break from her new al
lies. But if tho alliance resists with
a contra demonstration, she will back
down.
Will Take Action.
London, April 25. Up to lato this
afternoon the foreign office had to
fusel further Information concerning
tho eastern crisis. It's unusual rctl
cence Is construed as showing an CX'
trcme delicacy in tho situation.
Despite tho refusal of the foreign
office to give out any Information, It
Is rumored that plans for a joint pro
test by Great Britain, Japan and the
United States is being formulated
with the greatest rapidity, and that
wrao action will be taken within the
next 48 hours.
Declaration of Good Will.
Washington, April 25. Secretary
Hay received a note from tho Rus
sian ambassador reiterating Russia's
previous declarations of good will to
ward the United States and reassert
ing her policy In Asia, calculated ns
one far from working harm to this
country.
Its tenor is like that of all the fore
running Russian notes on Manchuria,
so extremely general as to throw no
light upon Russian intentions.
Will Play Lone Hand.
Meanwhllo Secretary Hay has sent
to President Roosevelt a complete
statement of the case and its bear
ing upon American interests. No re
ply has yet been received and it Is
apparent that tho matter is looked
upon hero as ono which Is so import
ant and so fraught with posslblo dan
gers that It would bo given the most
careful consideration.
The. stories that a Joint protest
will bo mado by Japan. England and
the United States aro unworthy of
consideration. The United Stntos will
play a lone hand .

TO BUILD CUT-OFF.
O. R. & N., It Is Reported, Will Cut
Out 45 Miles of Curves In Umatilla.
A report has sprung into sudden
prominence which has Its origin In
railroad circles, that the O. R. & N
will within tho next two or threo
yeniH lnalso two cut-offs In tho wost
em pnit of Umntllla county tnat will
abbreviate tho mileage, of the road
approximately 15 miles.
It must not bo considered that this
has yet reached the authorltntlvo or
cemcluslvo stage, but the fact re
mains thnt the report originates In
railroad circles. Tho first proposi
tion Is to the effect thnt the road will
be built almost In n direct lino (nf
proximately direct) from Echo to
Coyote. This will save a distance of
23 iuIIoh. The second proposed
"straightening" vlll bo between Wul
lulu and Foster, and the dlstanco
unveil it this is done will bo not less
than 20 miles. Of course all thin
presupposes the abandonment of the
Kclm-Unuitllla line and of the line be

Tho currying out of this scheme
