MYSTERIOUS WOMAN (Continued from page one) A lovely church wedding took place at Vancouver, Washington, when Miss Irene Eobins became the brido of Thurman Cave. The impressive cere mony was read by Uev. L. K. Grimes at the Presbyterian church in Van couver. After the wedding which took place Monday, the couple returned to Salem where they are .making their home at 1389 Court street.

Several, includ ing Daniel Wi.lafd, president of the Baltimore and Ohio, hale Holden, pres ident of the Burlington and Fairfax Harrison, president of the Southern are mentioned. The director of traffic, it is presumed will regulate priority and direct move ment of all freight, co-ordinating with the director or operations. APPEARING AT THE OREGON SUNDAY AND MONDAY maintenance, new projects, and reason able dividends to stockholders, will con stitute the crux of the courerence be tween railroad officials and McAdoo today. Congress also will talk itself hoarse on the government's decision to com pensate the railroads on a basis of the maximum earnings of the past three years instead of the pre-war period. The railroads regard the governments intervention primarily as financial re lief.

Deficit Is Seduced, The railroads predict that advancing expenses will necessitate the govern ment making good a deficit on most of the roads. Diversion of freieht, pool ing of equipment and other war effi ciency measures will make some lines prosperous and reduce the revenues of others.

As the guarantee merely serves net income, the division of this income may be varied to provide more for improve ments than ill past years, just as stock holders have enjoyed different divi dends in the past. ay general or special orders, the pre load improveemtns and added rolling sident 's proclamation provides, Mc Adoo may do most anything he deems necessary to run the railroads as a war machine solely for efficiency and vic tory. The only guarantee the roads have that ho will not supersede the present individual managements with a groat government bureau occupying several buildings here, with branches every- stock, and of disposing of any excess earnings the government may make, also are expected to come under him. Below these three sub-heads, highlv centralized working organizations will gradually be evolved, utilizing present organization as far as it is compatible with the plan ot divorcing private in terest from the management.

It is asserted J a kupalch was murdered after a drunken quarrel. Knox is al leged to be wanted in Columbus, Ten enssee, for murder. AVhttther there is any direct connec tion between Jakupalch's death and his association with the alleged master spy is a question under investigation by fed eral agents. The cabins the two men occupied aro situated within 200 yards of each other. In a high powered auto; mobile Schulenberg would come fre quently to the cabin in company with a stranger, mauntaineers declare to be French, but appeared Austria.
