LUXOR, Egypt. Feb. 16. (By As
sociated Press). Regarding tho diffi
culties between Howard Carter and
the Egyptian government In connec
tion with the tomb of Tut-Ankh-Amen
tho Associated Press was officially In
formed today that tho Egyptian gov-
ernmont had decided to take energetic

public :
ROSEBUnO. Ore., Feb. 10. Fred
Thomas and Joe JIayberry wcro in
dicted on a charge of larceny by tho
Douglas county grand Jury today.
They are ccuscd of having stolen two
bicycles belonging to Jtov. Joseph

rested with tho bicycles nt Grants
Puss and returned to Itoseburg last
December. A not true bill was re
turned in tho cases of Floyd D. Drown
traffic officer at Corvnllls, who was
accused of passing bad checks while
resident of Itoseburg. Ill a lengtny

Improvements nt tho county home to

PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 18. For
mer Governor T. T. Gccr of Oregon
ho was stricken with apoplexy ten
days ago whllo acting as bailiff for
the Multnomah couhty grand jury,
continues In a semi-conscious condi
tion and little hope Is held out for
is recovery.
LONDON, Feb. 10. Tho dispute
botwoen Howard Cnrtor and Egyptians
over conditions surrounding work In
tho tomb of Tut-Ankh-Amen has
reached a deadlock, according to cllB
Hatches received here and the pecu
liar position of tho momont Is that
Carter holds the keys to the tomb, but
Is not allowed to enter.
Mr. Carter, according to the Cnlro
correspondent of the Dally Mail wrote
to Premier Said Zngloul Pasha,
threatening to take legal nctlon
against tho government, to which tho
premier replied that Cnrtor wan free
to take action, but tho government
wim determined that tho appointed
days for visiting the tomb be ob
nerved. He added: "I am sorry to
have to remind you thnt tho tomb Is
hot your property. The scionco wnicn
you rightly lnvoko cannot conceive
that owing to the Incident over tho
visits of people whom you wished to
favor, you nnd your colleagues win
abandon your investigations in which
not only Egypt, but tho wholo world
Is interested."
' The Cairo correspondent of the
Morning Post reports that tho Egyp
tlan cabinet deckled that Mr. Carter's
nctlon In closing tho tomb on his own
Initiative constituted Infringement of
contract and thnt tho government con
sonuontly is free to contlnuo tho work
Unfit if It wishes, a courso to which
the Egyptian press Is strongly urging
It. . Tiiti correspondent says, however,
that Carter probably will bo given the
option of continuing the work, nubject
to corjaln definite conditions. '

Officials Hoi-ply Stirred
Today It was apparent, however,
thnt the shooting of Senator Greene

said they were ready to demand that
something be done.
It was not entirely clear whether
blame ever could technically he placed
