Mr. Over at one time, had hopes of having the' construction of the depot under way this fall. J. W. Maruney, president of tho Sa loin Floral society spoke in favor of a water system for the city, bringing water from Clear lake. He believed that so vera I cities in the valley would co operate with Salem and that the ex pense of a new water system for the city would probublv not be more than 2,000,000, to be secured by tho voting of bonds. Tho financial condition of tho Com mercial club is becoming better each month, according to the report of Man ager McDaniels. There is a balance of $2707.11 in the bank and members nre paying their dues promptly. The over head expenses of tho club have been reduced by half and from a financial standpoint, the club is in better condi tion than at any time sinco its organ ization.

This is a slight decrease from the report of October 17. The general increase in the seriousness of the shortage -is shown by the report of October 2, which states that then there were 1437 cars short. Articles of incorporation of tho John Day Stock company were filed this morning with the state corporation com missioner. The incorporators are Lyle Beeny, H. V. Whitney and J. R. Rnley, and they propose to operate and man age stock ranches, deal in cattle and horses and farm products. Their capital is given at $25,000. The report of Lincoln Savage, Jose phine county school superintendent, has been submitted for the school year 19151010 to the state 'school su perintendent. Reports from various counties it i expected will all be in shortly. Suirintendent Savage reports general conditions good and that a cam paign for better school houses, better lighting, heating, aad ventilation has resulted satisfactorily. He reported that it has been difficult to got district boards interested in standardization of their schools but with the splendid co-operation of the teachers and the pu pils tour schools have now ncen siana- ardized. The industrial work ho said was moving slowly as it was easy to organize but hard to keep up interest during vacations. He declared - this phase of the subject needed ' ' follow up work." Prowler Enters the Dunsford Residence George Dunsford, of 5.13 South Liber ty street, caretaker of the grounds and parking at the state house, had his house entered last night by persons as yet unknown. Mr. Dunsford at present ih at Newport on his vacation. Nothing so far as is known, was taken, although a Buit of clothes might have been lift ed without disturbing the articles sur rounding. Officers White and Varncy investi gated but found nilthing disturbed and they are o'f the opinion the woman who walked on the porch frightened the in truder away before ho had time to make any haul. The .woman, a neighbor, told TOTHE Episcopal Delegates Tackle What Cleveland Called an "Innocuous Deseutude" St. Louis, Mo., Oct.. 19. The . im portant divorce question in the Protest ant Episcopal church conference, which was killed in the house of deputies last Saturday, may again be brought before the ruling bodies of the conference. It wag learned today that the house of bishops, the "senate" of the church legislative body, in secret session dur ing the night, had practically decided to bring the question before the bishops for action. The proposed new canon, which was defeated last week, would have prohibit ed the marriage of any persons who had been a party to a divorce for any cause whatever. The present canon permits the marriage "o'f the innocent" party of a divorce decree. The present law was ruled in order for at least three more years by the deputies when th lay men in body refused to concur with the clerical members. The proposed canon was defeated after a two day debate. It was said the canon may be taken up by the bishops because the lower house has not officially notified the up per branch of its actioa last week. This brings it up as unfinished business. It is thought the question will be voted on some time next week. If the house of bishops passes the resolution for a new canon, it will be sent back to the deputies for concur rence. Its fate in the lower house is not known, but some of the "pro" cam paigners said they hnd a better chance to ge it through than last week. The defeut of the question Saturday was attributed to the fiery speech o'f the Rev. Melish, of Brooklyn, who ar raigned wealthy couples, who, tiring of their mates, were divorced and remar ried. He said he favored the canon if it would affect only these persons, but opposed it because it would also prevent the remarriage of women who had been abandoned by their husbands. Brook lyn's socialist minister could not be found this morning, but his friends say he would undoubtedly again be lined up against its passage. "JOINT AGCOUNT WAS CAUSE OF Bank's Refusal to Honor Checks Started Cyclone in Business Circles IE L British Steamer Gets Message Think It the Trouble some U-53 the officers she saw a man in the house, nnd that the up stairs was lighted up. She told the officers she went to the door and that she found the glass brok en which fact frightened her. Then she said the light up-stairs was snapped off. It is the belief of (lie chief of police that this job was also done by James Murray, the escnped trusty from the peuitentinry, as this house is located only a short distance from that of K. V. McNeeham, on Mission street. Mrs. R. W. Shields, wife of an Amity, Ore., barber, had an interesting time in Salem yesterday. So did the chief of police, and so did E. T. Barnes of the Barnes Cash store and the manager of Woolworths Ten cent store. All this because Mrs. Shields drew checks on what she termed was a joint account of Iter's and her husband's in the Amity bank. E. T. Barnes cashed two checks, one for $25 and one for $15, and then found that the bank at Amity would not honor them. He was also informed that Mrs. Shields had no account with the Amity bnnk. Woolworth'B also cashed a check amounting to $4.35. Altogether she cashed checks amounting to nearly $45. Chief of Police Welsh, who had met Mrs. Shields earlier in the day when she entered a vigorous protest against the way in which the O. C. T. company conducted their boats in leaving earlier than they said they would, was notified ' by Mr. Barnes that her checks would not bo honored in Amity. She was taken ' into custody and, bundles of purchases j and all, she was taken to the police station, where she gave highly-colored specimens of her vocabulary free rein. She protested volubly and in pictur esque language that did not falter at: strong words that she was not doing any wrong, and that she had a right to write checks on her joint-account. She was sore at everything, and smiled and frowned and berated her husband, the city, nnd everybody with lighteniiig-like rapidity of change. She declared her actions in cashing the checks and buying all the articles was under the advice of attorneys. She said her husband well, she was excit ed and her opinion will not be repeated. She offered to give her note to Mr Barnes for 30 days but he could not ac cept it. She berated him also and when she called tip her husband at Amity she started in to give him a red-hot tirade, which caused the telephone operator to cut her off to protect the wires. Chief Welsh-told her that sort of stuff would not get her anywhere, and she wanted to know what they would have her do. Mr. Barnes wanted his goods back, and she began to tear the bundles open and throw suspenders, neckties, socks, combs, silks, buttons, shoes, and other articles of wearing apparel out of the packages. She took off her hat, pulled combs from her hair,"and piled them up to be checked. Then it was found she had $31.50 from Mr. Barnes. By this tim tliti twilica mitmi.

A German submarine, possibly tho U-53, has been sunk off Nantucket, according to a message the British' steamer North Pa cific claims to have received. Tho North Pacific is taking on bunker coal here today. Although sho arrived here Momluy -night from New Orleans, the North Pa cific did not report receiving the mes sage from what was said to be a Brit ish cruiser until today. Tliu, message. read : "German submarine sunk east Nan tucket." Officers of the North Pacific saiL the cruiser was lying off this coast. A London cable to the United Pros a tew days ago said a sudden reduction in insurance rates on t rails-Atlkvlirt shipping by Lloyds had aroused sieeu lation as to whether the U-53 had been sunk, captured or had returned to a German port, it being believed that jhi reduction was ordered because Lloyds had received "inside information." immediately to the polite station to get their goods.
