Neither did he have anything to do with Detective William J Burns' coming here. Mr. Burns resigned from his position with the government that he might be able to devote all of his time to the work here. "Any talk about the government having control over me is absurd. There was no time when I was prose cuting cases for the government that I was not at liberty to drop the work. I withdrew fro tnthe government cases so that I could give the time that was necessary to the San Fran cisco prosecutions.” Junction City, Dec. 21.—The Junc tion City high school debating team .defeated the Cottage Grove team in I the first high school league debate of this season.

The arrests are the result of an investigation by the Voters' League, and according to the best information obtainable it is possible that the scandal at San Francisco will be insignificant compared to the alleged grafting here. The following men are already accused: Councilmen Wm. Brand. John F. Klein, J. C. Wasson, T. L. Atkinson. Jacob Siffel, W. H. Melaney and Hugh Ferguson, former President W W. Ramsey and former Cashier A A. Vilsack. of the German Na tional Bank The information against them accuses conspiracy, corrupt solicitation and bribery. Bail for the accused aggregat ed $178,000, which was furnished. The seven councilmen, it is formally alleged, conspired with each other and with other persons unknown to secure the pas sage by bribery of the select and common councils of ordinances and resolutions designating the depositaries of the city, bridge ordinances, bond ordinances for freeing bridges between Pitts burg and Allegheny, an ordinance for additional filter beds for the new filtration plant, a street railroad ordinance and other municipal matters. All the councilmen are candidates for re election. A preliminary hearing will be held tomorrow. Rumors in circulation late this afternoon say that six men have left the city as the result of the disclosures in the municipal graft scandal.
