With complete returns from 29 out
of 34 precincts in I. inn county up
utilil 3 o'clock this afternoon, the in
dications are that all of the measures
with the exception of the workmen's
compensation act are defeated in this
county. The referendunis on the uni
versity are upheld hy substantial ma
jorities, as is the sterilization hill. The
vole on the county attorney act is
close. It is believed though that the
results from the few missing pre
cincts will not change the present
outlook. Ity 6 o'clock this evening, it
is expected that the full returns will
be in.
The vote polled in Albany was
:lose on the university measures and
the sterilization bill, but on the coun
ty attorney bill and workmen's com
pensation act, sate majorities in favor
have been recorded. Albany went
lor the university repair fund but sus
tained the referendum on the build
ing appropriation.
Albany voted as follows:
University repair fund, yes 3H7, no
317; university building appropriation,
yes 334, no 335; sterilization, yes 332,
no 2M; county attorney, yes, 415, no
263; workmen's compensation, yes
405, no 217.
That Linn county is strong for the
workmen's compensation act and the
county aUorey bill, hut that univer
sity measures and the sterilization
bill has been thrown down, was indi
cated this morning by the returns
from sixteen out of thirty-four pre
cincts. The returns as complete from the
sixteen precincts are as follows: Uni
versity repair fund, yes, WW, no 120H;
university building appropriation,
yes 792, no 1297; sterilization, yes
917, no 1 145; county attorney, yes
10.SO, no 944; workmen's compensa
tion, yes 1298, no 771.

County Clerk Marks is compiling the
returns as rapidly as possdde.
Indications of the vole polled in Al
bany, this city ha favored the univer
sity bills but it appears that all of
the outside precincts arc returning
heavy negative majorities.

A bottle dropped overboard by the
I lydrographic expedition of the Pa
cific ocean three years ago to ascer
tain the rate and direction of the cur
rent, was found at Yaquina Bay Oc
tober 31, by an Albany man, A. E.
Bowlins.
The bottle contained a piece of pa
"r on which i'e following was writ
ten in three different languages: This
bottle is thrown over board in order
to ascertain the rate and direction of
the current from Russian surveying
-hip "Kamander Rering." Dated 1 3t K
Inly 1910. Lnt. 56 degrees 53 minutes,

ward it to the following address: Ily

The finder has already forwarded
it. The bottle waa on display at

sent and attracted considerable attention.

The fire department was called out
last night in answer to an alarm for
the first time in several weeks, when
the flue in the home of Ed. Cusick
on Ferry street 'between Seventh and
Eighth streets cought fire and burned
out, without doing any damage.
The alarm was sounded shortly af
ter 7:30 o'clock. It was sent in over
the Bell telephone and owing to some
mistake in giving the location on the
part of the person who sent it in, the
department experienced some diffi
culty in locating the blaze.
"Wlhoever sent in the alarm" said
Fire Chief Htorsky this morning, "gave
the wrong location. W got it over
the phone as being between Fourth
and Fifth street on West Seventh and
we hardly knew where to go. How
ever, we proceeded up Fifth avenue,
thence to West Seventh where we fin
ally located the fire. I hope that ev
erybody will hear in mind that in
sending in a fire alarm, if they give
the names of the nearest cross streets,
that is all that is necessary to expedite
matters for the department to work
quickly and effectively."
