He is busy sawing wood today. . Bennett Thompson is the man who murdered Mrs. Helen Jennings and l"ea iustman, rortiand jitney driver, near Tualatin two years ago. He waa sentenced to life imprisonment in the state penitentiary. But two weeks ago he and Fred Thur- ber left for a short outing. They took their departure by night by cutting a bole through the bars in the flume which runs through the prison yards. Ihompson was icaptured yesterday afternoon near Rainier, in Columbia county, as he was taking a drink from the Columbia river. While he had his face down to the water, Deputy Sheriff James Jesse slipped up behind him. When Ibompson turned to se who was there he looked into tho barrels of a brace of revolvers, and had no choice but to quietly surrender. Warden Murphy, who was in Port land with his automobile, was notified and he went to St. Helens, where depu ty Sheriff Jesse, took Thompson, to get the prisoner. The warden, with Prison ! GSiard MJoreloek, Tdturned Thompson to the prison last night And his vacation is over. Thompson told his captors that if he had been given five minutes more time ho would have crossed the river and caught a freight train for Seattle, from where ho expected to beat bif way into Canada, where he intended to join the Canadian army. "And then I would like to have seen you fellows try to get me back," he said. "You sure would have had some time trying it, belieVe me." He said he and Thurber, when they left the prison, hiked along the Oregon Electric to Malloy, and tnen to uswego. Next they went to Milwauki iand Lents, where they separated. Thomp son made his way to St. Johns, where he got a row boat and crossed to Linn ton, from where he made his way over mpuntain trails to Rainier. Use Commission Funds For Hospital Beckwith Harvey Beckwith, chairman of the state iudustial accident commission, is in favor of using funds of the commis sion to build a special hospital for the commission on the grounds of the Uni versity of Oregon Medical school in Portland. He says the business of the commis sion is grown until a hospital is badly needed to give the best attention to the men injured in industrial accidents throughout the 'state. The revenues of the commission are now so large, he points out, that one month's income would bo sufficient to build the hospital- It is his idea that in connec tion with .the hospital should be1 an administrative building for housing the commission and its large force of em ployes. But before any such plan takes def inite shape, he says the employrs and employes who are the chief contribu tors to the industrial accident fund should be consulted and should give their approval, "The money really belongs to them," said Chairman Beckwith, ".and if they approved the plan for building a hos Dital I do not believe there would be jany objection from oher sources, as the hospital wouiu De uum wuu meir money and would not cost the general taxpayer a cent." Mr. Beckwith is going to take the matter up with some of the biggest employers, who contribute the largest sums to the fund, and if they approve the proposition would be put up to the next legislature. State House Notes The Great Northern Railway Com ,pany cleaned up a net income last vear of 2-'J,021.7gl, which is 16(i,0:J ile?s than the company's net income the previous year, according to the com pany's annual statement filed with the public service commission. The eompany 's operating revenues for the year were $SS,534.163. Its operat ing expnses were $59,243,785. Fire losses in the state outside of olliAlLlil ui ruin DOES NOT INCLUDE USflESWil Only limited Objectives Were Sought In Recent Offeushre By J. W. T. Mason, (Vaited Press Wfir expert) New York, Aug. 13. The allies' ad vance is slowing down in conformity with Marshal Fuch's settled policy of not wasting the lives of his troops when time i working so powerfully on the side of the allied cause. In substitution for direct assaultt with their heavy casualties to the at tacking troops, Marshal Foes is again reverting to his squeeze plays Pres sure at strategical points is now the dominant feature in plans now being formed at Foch's headquarters. The Germans must eventually fall back to the old Hindenbnrg- line and beyond the Cheniin-Des-Dames, as well, and Marshal Fork is showing that he will not force this retirement within any given number of days. Neither the Marne attack nor the present drive in Picardy constitutes a true major offensive. Marshal Focn, issued a firm veto in each series of operations against any extension of the assaults beyond strictly limited object ives. The enemy was caught in traps on both occasions and outguessed and out-generalled. During the Marne engagements, as well as now, Marshal Foch has revealed that it is useless for von iliudenburg to seek to entrap the allies. At the point where Von UindenDurg sets out to "lure the allies on," Marshal Foch immediately brings his commands to a 'standstill. This display of caution and or regard for the lives of his men is in full conformity with Marshal Foch 's ultimate strategy. Neither Picardy aor the Chenim-Des- Dames, nor even, the Belgian border contains the allies' main objective. That objective is the River Rhine and beyond. It would be short sighted policy for Marshal Foch to use up his man power driving Von .tiindcnDiirg back to Belgium by direct assaults through French territory, in preference to use this same men power for an invasion of Germany- Once the ab lies, led by America's millions, are well into Germany, the rest will folow. Bat. in the meantime, whenever Von Hindenburg commits gross errors of strategy, Marshal Foch's purpose is to take full advantage of these mistakes Thus the allies' casualties will be kept down for the great drive to the Rhine, but meanwhile German morale will be subjected to steady deterioration. BY COMMITTEE TODAV Professor Matthews' Report Was Considered at Secret Session This Morning When the state consolidation commis sion met today, its first official action was to adopt a motion in favor of hold ing a secret session, and the newspaper men present were invited to leave. The motion for a secret session was made by Herman Von Burstel, secretary of the commission, at the request of Pro feasor J. M. Matthews, the consolidation expert employed by the commission. No one seconded the motion, but Chairman Johnson put it to a vote. Von Borstcl voted aye; no one voted no, so the mo tion was declared carried. It was stated that the commission wanted to talk over a few things, and probably this afternoon an open session would be held when the newspaper rep resentatives could be present. . The plan, as outlined, is to abolish all elective state offices, except those 'of the governor, secretary of state and state treasurer, which arc constitutional and cannot be abolished without an amendment to the constitution. In place of the elective offices the governor will be given authority to appoint practical ly all the state officials, the same as the kaiser now does in Germany. It is proposed-to divide tho state gov ernment into eight or nine departments and provide for a chief or a commis sioner to head each department. In most cases, these commissionerships will be new and extra officeg, while the pres ent officials might be retained as bureau chiefs under the commissioners, One of the changes proposed in to take all ilie state institutions from the Portland during the month of July totaled $273,835, according to figures compiled by Slate Fire Marshal Wells. These figures include the $170,000 loss sustained by the big Heppmer fire. There were 55 fires in the state, of which nine were eaused by defective flues. That the passage of senate bill 313. now pending before congress, will be a big, boost for inland cities as it will give them, a lower freight rate from eastern points, is the declaration of Public Service Commissioner Corey in a letter to C. K. Cranston, secretary of the Commercial Association of Peudle ton. The purpose of the bill is to render the interstate commerce commission powerless to grant lower rates from the east to Pacific coast terminals than is granted to inland points .having a shorter haul. "I believe that now that the rail roads are under federal control it is the opportune time to secure this legis lation," says Commissioner Corey. SPAIN HAY BREAK WITH GERMANS IS LATE LOND ON REPORT Torpedoing of Two Spanish Steamers Has Caused j Sericss Rapture London, Aug. 13. That a break be-1 twea tyai- and Germany is likely i was reported here this afternoon. The sinking of two Spanisb steamers i by German submarines fed to con- j sidersble unrest in Madrid. This was, followed by the internment of the crew of a U-tat that sought refuge iu a ! Spanish port. I spite of 'his, the Spanish cabinet, following a special j meetiag Sunday, issued statement i declaring that it was vital for Spain to maintain its neutrality. Rumor Creates Interest. Washington. Aug. 13. Reports that Spain may bo, about to break with Germany were received here with un disguised' interest today. Confidential reports here have long ndicated that Aluhonso's has been "ou the fence" awaiting developments. There is a strong Germanophile elem ent in the country, particularly in the army, but reports show this element has been greatly tempered by the thiuK- ng classes in Spain. Curtailments of raw materials to that country, hampering its great manu factures, also had a contributing in fluence toward changing public opinion and enthusiasm over German prowess. The crudity of German diplomacy, combined with the Teuton U-boat activity against Spanish ships, shortago of food and raw materials, and the growing strength of the allies in the west, all tended to win favor for the aJliea. Recjentiv, reports here show, even former Ipro-German newspapers have exclaimed over the great wrk of the American army and have ceased to prate of German military prowess. Spain is understood to have about 2,000,000 men who could be put fully equipped, into military service. control of the state board of control and appoint a commissioner to run them.
