MEAGRE REPORT OF BOLD HOLDUP The Enterprise ha the distinction of being the first to notify the peni tentiary official at Salem of the whereabout of tho two escaped con vict who took French leave last Sat urday from that Institution. The Ore gonlan also got It first report from the editor of thla paper Wednesday evening of the escape and their ad venture at Buena Vista. The report In the Oregonlan wa nearly exact with the exception of the name of partlea In the ordeal. Mr. Star wa accompanied by a neighbor boy, Claude Whltenian, whe they were overtaken by the convict who undertook to aecure their team and vehicle. Mr. 8tar remonstrated with the convict when they et upon him and beat him up In a frightful manner. Claude Whlteman Is sup posed to be with the convict, whom they are supposed to be using as a shield in case they are pursued by a posse. Gld Phillips brought word to Bue na Vista Wednesday night of the en counter of Mr. Star with the convicts. Mr. Phillips reported that Star was bally wounded about the head at the hands of his asfa lanU. Word from Buena Vista yesterday gives the In telligence that Star is badly hurt but that ho is resting comparatively easy at his home across the river from Buena Vista.

Siletz Settlers Lose. PORTLAND. On the advice of Secretary Ballinger, President Tafi declined to sign Representative Hawley's bill confirming the titles of some 80 odd settlers on the Siletz Res ervation and by reason of this "pocke veto" the bill is dead. This bill passed the house of repre sentatives several weeks ago, was promptly reported to the senate and lay on the senate calendar for two weeks before it was called up by Sen ator Chamberlain and passed. The bill was engrossed, signed by the speaker of the house and Vice-President Sherman, and was laid before the president when he came to the capitol. As the bill relates to affairs of the Interior department the president re ferred it to Secretary Ballinger, who was present, and he advised against Its approval, contending it would leg alize titles that might better be han dled in the regular way by the inter ior deprrmen.
