About thirty prominent business unci professional men of Albany met lust evening at the commercial club rooms with Congressman Hawley, who stated the case well President Eastburn of the commercial ciab presideii, and Manager Stewart presented the case so far as the Club is loncerned. Tnen Portmaster Vn i Winkle reviewed the matter ot a revet- iticiiv uiuna iiiu liver, air. CBSluurn that of an upper Willamette open river in the interest of competition, Maj. C. B. Winn the locks at Oregon City, and Judge Stewart the N. P. land grant, because of a lack of approval nf which Linn county has been cheated out of thousands of dollars annually. Congressman Hawlev said that after travelling 8500 miles over his district ,hi u '." r " u" Linn county young lady, and in a beau tiful place near Albmy, on a sloping hill, he expects to build a home and spend the last years with his family. In reference to the revetment he said it can be Becured only because of the navigability of the river, without re gard to the protection of the land and bridge. He will camp on the trail of the engineers. The duties of the representatives ended with the appropriation for the locks at Oregon City, but he will con tinue to push the interests and favors the proposed compromise, demanding an early action. The head of navigation ought to be Eugene, and he will favor a svstem of six locks or dams between Salem and Eugene, costing about $75,000 each, which will insure six feet of water the year round, regardless of the bars and shifting dirt. There is hardly a thing to show for the present dredg ing syaterr. He promised to insist on immediate action for the approval of the Northern Pacific grants, held up so long. He reported a si.ouu.uuo reserve 'or forest protection, and gave the plan for securing more of it here for our pro tection. The infamous Lefene apple box . bill was punctured, and the inside of the effort to secure it was shown up. There will be another, which must be met The Oregon box is the best of all. 1 he (.ancressman dec area that the Sherman law should not be repealed, I but it should be amended in three par ticulars providing for affirmative policy inRtead of a negative one. The manner in which claim? are held up cn reports of incompetent govern ment agents was exposed, and a better law was advocated making this im possible, and compelling a patent utter linnl proof.

McNamara confessed to the enormous crimes because he was guilty, and because it was the best thing to do. Ho said ho had studied the case for months, and it presented a stone wall. This ends one of the most sensational cases in the history of the United States. The confessions are a great victory for W. J. Burns, the detective, and as well for justice. The New Manager.
