When asked if there would be any funeral scaling down of salaries under lirf administration Mr. Orr said: "it is vny Judgment that the) organi sation of the working force Is excellent, cud I have not in my observation come twross any officer of the company whom 1 did not think to be earning his salary."

Mr. Cannon and Mr. Busboy strolled Into an up town hotel one evening recently. Two aen were standing In front of the desk, one of them a man around town and the other a stranger. Mr. Cannon wore a slouch hat, and his cigar point ed toward bis nose. Secretary Busboy was faultlessly attired. "Why, there's Speaker Cannon," said the man around town. "He's a handsome fellow," said the stranger, "but who's the old duffer with him r Pittsburg Dispatch. Htdi 5ew York Polio. Brigadier General Theodore A. Bing ham, TJ. 8. A., retired, the new poUoe commissioner for New York city, la a West Point graduate and forty -even jeors old. He was retired from the army because of physical disability. In charge of government work to Buffalo a couple of years ago General IEngbam -was struck by a falling der rick and so badly injured that one of bis legs bad to be amputated. For tix years prior to 1908 he was military aid of the president and super intendent of public buildings and grounds of the District of Columbia. By virtue of his office he bad charge of the White Ilouse and was major domo f official and social receptions. It is related of him that on one occa sion when there was a social function THEODORE A. BINGHAM. of Importance at the White House and a large number of guests were present one of the guests, a well known sena tor, began the narration of a story in a tone which attracted attention through out the room. General Bingham saw that the president was annoyed. With out waiting for anything further he stepped up to the senator and said: The president desires to have quiet'" The senator was extremely wroth, but It made no difference to Gensral Bing fcam. lie had merely stopped a rude In terruption of what was suing on.

Mi - BIRDS HAVE rtOWN, Ttmt Likely that Puwr an SlcKlis ley Will be Captured. Widaopread comment has been oc casioned by the extraordinary ease with which S. A. D. Puer and Horace G MoKinley, whose Napoleonic operations form the most spectacular chapters in the Oregon tand frauris. have made ttieir escape from the jurisdiction of the Dnited States. Few believe that they could hae escaped from Sun Fiancisco if the federal officials stationed there had been vigilant in the effort to ap prehend tliera . "The government did not want them" w the eo mm n commentary, and it finds vfi'y general acceptance. While special omenta were busilv engaged in Oregon in miming down t itles and seeking iu formation as to the fugitives, the men supposed to be fl einur, from justice were living undisturbed and apparently care free in 8nFrancico. McKinley finally decided to set rail for the orient and be took passage on the stenmer Mongo'ia for Shanghai, No vember 16. He was accompanied by a wealthy vou g easterner, who had be come interested in a project for build- ng a wheel railway in one of the large cities of China. At the time McKinley sailed b th he and Puter were very much wanted by Stite Land Agent West, wh had brought to light ttieir operations in counterfeit school Una certificate- aud was doing his utmost to run the swindlers to -arth. Apparently for the purpose of throwing West off his trail McKinley leaorttd to a chacter- utic ruse. He wrote to a friend in Portland ask ing him to maii three letters which be enc'osed, the object being that they shonM bear the Portland postmark and thus create the impression that McKin ley was io that city. The letter con taining these enclosures was dated December the 5 from SnnFrarfcisco and the postmark corresponded, showing that the letter came thiougu the San Francisco postefnee. Inasmuch as McKinley sailed to Shanghai November 16. it is probabe that he left this letter and the en closures, with instructions that they be mailed December 5, the date on the let ter. If bis wtfe, Marie Ware McKinlev, was then in San Francisco, she may have been entrusted with the letter. At all events the scheme was well calcu lated to throw his pursuers off the scent. McKinley well knew the methods of the 8-cret service and knew that if a serious effort should be made to apprehend him one of the first things to be done would be to wat h the mails. Just about tbe time that this -letter was mailed from San Francisco In spector Thomas B. Neuhausen received a letter from Sea' tie, dated December 4, saying that McKinley was endeavor ing to escape from the country. The writer was evidently in ignorance of tbe fact that the bird had flown and ex pressed the belief that McKin'ey would sail from Vanoouver, B. C. The letter further suggested the arrest of George J. Hibbard and Kay McLay, siyiug that they had been engaged in some trans actions with McKinley and might be iorced to disclose bis whereabouts. Neuhausen immediately communi cated the information he had received to State Land Agent West, and though both of them regarded tbe letter with suspicion, thinking it might be a mere decoy. West went to Seattle and made a search for some clu- which might lead to McKinley's arrest. He was un successful, and though some informa tion was secured as to McKinley's movements during the previous summer and fall, nothing was learned which was of material importance. Hubpf quently reports came from Sau Francisco to Inspector Neunausen that the two swirdlers were in California Thi information was scceptpd both by Neuhausen and by Vest as piobably correct, and they gave little credence to the rurncrs that becama current several days ago that the two men had fled the country. Two days ago thess rumors were con firmed In a manner that left no doubt as to their accuracy. Evidently Francis J. Henedy is convinced that the fugi tives have escaped, although in an in terview in San Francisco he stated that he thought they could be located when wanted. An important qupstion which now arises is whether Puter and McKinley can be extradi'ed, and whether, if this can be done the government wi'l take the necessary steps. It appears to be impossible for the state land agent to institute expedition proceedings with out the aid of the federal authorities. If Poter and McKinley were purposely allowed toescapefrom the government's clctches it is not to be expected that there will be any great effort to bring them back. The indictments now pending in the federal court against Puter and McKin ley charge them with conspiracy to de fraud the government. It is said to be doubtful whether such a charge is a suf ficient basis for extradition, as the offense charged is not a felony but only a misdemeanor.

(Continued from flrtt page.) and dead shot who went lo Frankfort to kill Goeble in return for a pardon f r having killed George Baker in a tued Personally. Howard does not fill the idea of such a person at all. He would never have been taken for a desperate man from tbe mountains. He is hand some and of distinguished appearance, of fine physique and unusually graceful with easy manners. Be boka like a man of fine intellect and a student. In deed, he lias been a student for five years, as during his imprisonment he has d voted bis time to perfecting him self in the law. Howard was born in Clay county 40 years ago. His father was a school teacher. Howard lived io the moun tains all his life and early became an expert shot, like aU Kentucky mountain eers. He was Hist a deputy sheriff of Clay county, then school teacher, law yer, general storekeeper in the govern ment revenue Bervice and finally as sessor of Clay counry, which he held when he became involved in the Goeble trouble. Howard is the victim of a Kentucky fued, whatever were the circumstances of the killing of Goeble. He was in Frai.kfort the day Goeble was t-hot, trying to procure a pardon for the kill ing of George Baker from W. S. Taylor, then governor of Kentucky. The prose cution has maintained that he was to get his pardon for killing G.'ebel. How ard has maintained that in this seeming connection he was a victim of circum stances. , f The Baker Howard tued broke out' in 1897. Th Bakers one day ambushed Jim Howard's father and two brothers, killing the brothers and desperately wouuiing tbe lather. Jim Howard as soon as he beard of it, mounted his horse nd rode to tbe scene. He claims that the Bakers tried to ambush him and that t e escaped by uting his horse as a shield. In the encounter he shot George Baker to death. Howard was iadicted for the murder of Goebel in April 1900. He was then in Clay county, where he might have remained indefinitely, as the mountain eers are republicans, and would have afforded him protection against an army. But in the month of May Howard went to Frankfort and surrendered. Hia first trial resulted in a sentence of death, his second of life imprisonment, both being reversed. Tbe third verdict was life impiisonment and was sustainad by the supreme court. Oregon's Exhibition. Tbe recent celebration at Portland of the hundredth anniversary of tbe expe dition sent to secure our title to Oregon was an event wbiob commanded the at-J tention of the entire world.
