clerks In railroad offlcrs In Portland,
wore arrested Sunday on Irlngraphle
advices from that dir. charging then
with the (heft of blank railroad
pasaos and tha forgery of name of
official. .
Tbalrklll and Monahan are exceed
Ing wall-drmuMHl young mn, and ac
cording to their statements, bar
boon ni ployed In railroad clrclns
throughout tha Northwest recently.
For ao m weeks railroad detectives
have been engaged la trying to trace
a number of forged panada that have
come to light In the Northwest, and
It la believed that the two men have
operated extensively.
When aearched at tha police sta-
tlon two blank Southern Pacific and
two blank Oregon Railroad Navl
gallon Company's passes were found
on them. They admit coming to San
Franrlaro on aases which they bad
stolen and forged, but deny that
they have been guilty ot other of
fenses.
According to detective, somebody
hat recently been doing a large bual
neaa In forged passes. These passes
were aold to ticket scalpers, who dis
posed of them to travelers. Tho forg
erlea have been good rnougb to dofy
detection unttl the passes were re
turned to tho general ofllcea of the
roads. Thairklll and Monatian have
agreed to return to Portland with
out extradition. When arrest od they
had but a small sum of money on

Washington, Oct. B. Tho revenue
cutter Taboma, named In honor of
the City of Taconia, will be launched
at the yard of the New York Ship
Building Company, Cumden, N. J.,
Saturday, October 10. MIbs Grace
Clark Kahler, ot Tacoma; will act
as sponsor of the vessel. The event
will be especially notable as It will
form a part of the Founders week
celebration at Philadelphia. The
Tahoma takes the Indian name In
stead of the present spelling of the
City of Destiny, because a naval
cruiser has already been named In
honor of Tacoma and It was neces
sary to avoid a confusion of names.
The Tahoma will be one of the
crack vessels of the revenue cutter
service, especially for long distance
cruising, as she has a coal capacity
of 225 tons and a fresh water ca
pacity of 65 tons.
