Washington, Nov. 3. Details of
the raiding "f a government pack
tram by the only party of Utea now
running loose, have arrived. THe sup
plies were destined for tho camp of
the Tenth and Sixth cavalry near Ar
vada, Wyo.
According to Driver James Forgen,
no Indians were rn sight until a bunch
of about 100 mounted redskins sud
denly dashed from a defile In the
hills and surrounded him. There was
little noise outside of a few sharp
yells In the nature of commands, and
while several Indians kept Forgen
under their rifles, the balance looted
his wagon train of 3000 pounds of
flour, the sucks tif which -were strap
pe"d to the caynses of the ITtes, who
then disappeared Into the hilts.
As the result of the raiding of the
supply trnln, the troopers at Arvada
are In need, and operations looking
to a chirse of the Utes are prnctlcnily
at a standstill until supplies can be
hrtd. More supply trains will be sent
nutlroin Arvndn nt once. "The troops
from Keogh with supplies are now at
Ashland, en route to the camp of the
Tenth near Moorhead.

8cut Knsculp, who Is thoroughly
conversant with the section of the
country which the Utes are now be
lieved to be In, floes not think the
renegades will be given any assistance
by the Cheyenne, as four-fifths of

Crow fair nenr Forsyth, Mom., and
have Yinrdly had time to return and
concemrate a force of armed men of

Japan Will Disavow.
Washington, Nov. 3. It Is stated
on hlah authority today the govern
ment will undoubtedly make represen
tatlons to Japan on account of the
arrest of the officer found sketching
the fortifications at Manila. No re
sults are expected as Japan Is certain
to disavow all responsibility and apol
ogize that the "officer should be so
Indiscreet."
One army officer says he doesn't
cure If foreigners do manage to sketch
the forts, as It will only show them the
futility of trying to capture them.
Virginia and Monroe Collide.
Norfolk, Nov. 3. The Virginia,
while passing up to the Norfolk navy
yard was ranmcd on the starboard
quarter by the Old Dominion steam
ship Monroe coming in from New

rcarrlng of the battleship and dis
placing some of her guns and fixtures.
The stem and severnl bottom plates
of the Monroe were stove in.
Doth vessels were steaming slowly
up the river, the Virginia leading.
The wnrshlp suddenly came to a
standstill and the Monroe could not be
stopped In time to avoid a collision,
although reversed. Neither ship ha
given out an official account, al
though apparently the Virginia was
to blame either frorr. an accident to
the mahclnery or a misunderstanding
of signals.

Now Claiming a Landslide for Mr,
Hughes RookowH's Personal In

Country Chairman Griggs Now
Claims the Next House Will Have
20 Democratic Majority.
New York, Nov. 3. Attacked on
both flanks, the Hearst fire Is divert
ed from Hughes to Root and Croker,
and the last three days of the cam
paign will be an effort to repel their
onslaughts. Tammany Is today In a
chaotic state, as the defeat of Hearst
means the unhorsing of Murphy, and
reorganization. The lines are clearly
drawn. All the forces of McClellan
are now unequivocally for Hughes.
Croker will return after the elec
tion and It Is expected will give ad
vice in organization. .
Interna Centers In New York.
Washington, Nov. 3. President
Kootuvult Is running today In many
states. His name is not on the bal
lot, but his record and principles are
being used to bring people to the
polls.
Although an off year, the presl
dent's Interest Is shown by his send
Ing cabinet members to all parts "of
the country, the necessity of a con
gress favorable to him being para
mount.
The greatest Interest centers in New
York. It appears the efforts to save
the state from Hearst will be suc
cessful. Hearst Is still a quantity with
which Hughes must reckon, but all
signs on the surface point to a land
slide overwhelming the editor. It is
by no means certain, but the best pre
diction that can be made today fa
vors the republicans.

Washington, Nov. 3. Chairman

RUSHING WALLOWA BRANCH.
O. R.
&.X. Will Have Trains Into
Joseph by July 1.
Elgin, Nov. 3. Grade work on the
Wallowa extension of the O. R. & X.
Is progressing very satisfactorily. In
the canyon the grade from the fish
hatchery to Victor's, a distance of
about six miles. Is finished. The force
thnt has been at work on this section
has been transferred to points above
Victor's nnd from the latter point
eastward four camps are established.
From the end of the finished grade
from Elgin to the Junction of the Wal
lowa to the fish hatchery, a distance
of six miles, the work Is estimated to
be half done.
The firm of Mears & Gould have
taken a sub-contract of three miles
nt the upper end of the canyon nnd
they put In n considerable force this
week. J. M. Mitchell has the con
tract for grading between Enterprise
and Joseph, and he also, has a big
working force. In the lower valley
there Is quite a stretch of finished
grade Just this side of the town of
Wallowa, nnd three miles are finished
between the latter point and Lostlne.
A great deal of the valley portion
of the grade Is light, and at the pres
ent rate of progress the heavy work
in the canyon will soon be well In
hand. It Is considered quite probable
that trains will be running Into Wal
lowa valley, If not all the way to
Joseph, by the first of next July.
Registration frauds on a big scale
have been unearthed by the grand
Jury nt Los Angeles. Eight thousand
fradulent names were found on the

was the secretary of the State Wool

now held by Dan P. Smythe.
PENDLETON
MAY BE MURDERERS.
Suspicion That Lake and Lnrklns
Killed Several Men.
Kennewick, Nov. 3. Lively suspi
cions are entertained by Franklin and
Benton county authorities thnt several
mysterious murders along the Snake
and Columbia rivers the past two
months will be traced to Jncob Lake,
the outlaw killed In Wednesday
nlght'B battle below Kennewick, and
young Walter Larkln, the other out
law lOj Jnll nt Prosser, charged with
the murder of City Marshal Mike Glo
ver of Kennewick and Deputy Sheriff
Joe Hosley of Prosser.
Since Wednesday night's fight, of
ficers of the two counties have started
an investigation Into the movements
of Lake and young Larklns, which
they confidently believe will result In
showing that the pair have been part
of a gang of hold-up men and thugs
preying on laborers employed on the
north bank road since construction
work started nearly a year ago.

AN U
MEETING
FUEL SHORTAGE
GROWS
Seventy-four Empty Cars Pass
Through Pendleton, But Lit
tie Fuel Arrives.
DEALERS PARCELING OUT
FUEL IN SMALL AMOUNTS.
Shortage Is Really Serious as Winter
Is Approaching and Mnny People
Are Entirely Out of Coal and Wood
Spell of Severe Weather Would
Cuusc Actual Suffering Association
Committee Finds O. It. & X. Doing
Rut Little to Relieve tlie Situation
Pays Better to Rush Empty Can
AVestward to Loud With Lumber.
Notwithstanding the promise of
General Freight Agent R. B. Miller,
of the O. R. & N., to assist in reliev
ing the fuel shortage In this city, it '
continues to grow more serious.
l.Htring the month of November, or
In three days traffic, 74 empty cars
have passed through Pendleton going
west, over the O. R. & N. and yet It
Is Impossible to secure cars at Ka
mela or Meacham for wood shipments
to this city. Coal cars which are un
loaded at those places and especially
at Kamela are not allowed to remain
there for wood but are ordered west
Immediately and consequently the
shortage Is not being relieved as It
should be, with the near approach of
winter.
The committee appointed by the
Commercial association two weeks
ago to co-operate with Mr. Miller in
relieving the shortage have been In
vestigating quietly the car movement
and it Is ascertained that sufficient
empty cars to make two full trains
have passed through this city within
the past three days, and as many more
In the three days previous to the first -of
November.
This Is considered by the people in
general to be a direct breach of the
promise made by Mr. Miller, when the
Commercial association Invited him to
come to Pendleton to discuss the mat
ter two weeks ago.
No Westbound Competition.
The reason why the O. R. & N.
will not stop cars westbound to load
with wood and coal, is believed to be
tecause there is no competition In the
westbound wood and coal business,
and that the company feels that it can
deliver these commodities as it see?
fit.
But there Is a sharp competition In
the eastbound lumber trade and every
effort Is made to rush empty cars to
Portland nnd other sawmill points, in
order to load them for eastern ship
ments promptly, before the Northern
Pacific enters the field and secures
O. R. & N. trade.
H pays them better to rush the cars
westward and load eastbound lumber
than It does to haul coal and wood
westward.
Very little wood or coal is being re
ceived by Pendleton dealers and the
scarcity Is becoming serious. Winter
Is approaching and very few people
have their winter supply of fuel, ow
ing to the failure of the dealers to fill
orders during the summer season.
Dealers are selling only small amounts
to each consumer. In order to make
the supply go as far as possible, untli
shipments are Increased.
Should a few weeks of severe weath
er be experienced In this section, there
would be actual suffering from a lack
of fuel and unless shipments of wood
nnd coal are received more frequently
the Commercial association committee
and tho people feel that strenuous
meisurc-s will necessarily have to be
adopted.
Miller Again Promise.
Agent E. C. Smith today received
a letter from General Freight Agent
14. R. Miller saying thnt a personal
representative of ths O. R. S- X. had
been sent to Wyoming to look into
the coal situation and that everything
possible is being done to furnish cars
for fuel shipments. He said anions
other things that he was also making
arrangements to secure a supply of
Crow's Nest coal from British Colum
bia and that he wished to assure the
people of Pendleton that he Is doing
what Is within his power to relieve
the situation here.
