MURPHY HADN'T BEEN FOUND.
Missing Laber Union President Probably
AcrOsA the Boundary.

Joseph L. Murphy, president of the
Western Central Labor Union, who is
charged with embezzling funds placed in
his charge, and who disappeared from the
city about a week ago. is still at large, and
there seems to be a diversity of opinion as
to the direction in which he has gone
After the case was placed in the hands of
the police Thursday afternoon descrip-
ton of Murphy was telegraphed to the au-
thorities in Portland, and a request made
to hold him, if found, on the charge of en-
bexxlement. Last evening nothing had
been heard from that place, which leads
the police tc think Murphy may have
gone elsewhere.
Tho fact that the missing president is
we'll known to all labor unions on the
Pacific coast. and these organizations will
have no object but to deliver him to JUS
tice. gives ground for the belief that he
may have gone to British Columbia W..
g. Armstrong. delegate. who discovered
. Murphy's peculiar transactions, is inclined
to that belief, but says he has heard moth
ing of his whereabouts. In speaking of
the Roslyn relief fund he said that the
sufferers should not lose cent, and steps
were being taken to have the money re-
placed by the union.

The Question OF Buying . Plant to Go

Tho Question OF Buying . Plant to Go
Before the PEOPLE.
Last night the joint committee of the
council to consider the question of pur-
chasing an electric lighting plant met.
Besides the members of the committee
there were present Mayor Ronald and
Corporation Counsel Donworth. In reply
to questions, the latter said that the ques-
ton of purchase must be submitted to the
people. 1t was hoped that the state legis-
lature would at the next session amend
the laws so that the outstanding warrants
which could not be legalized under the
existing law could be funded. An election
would he necessary, and at the same time
the question as to the lighting plant could
be submitted. That would probably be
next February.
Mayor Ronald said plant could not be
procured and set UP within six months,
and as it would be muca more economical
to make contest for gear than for six
months. he suggested t5at the plan out
lined be adopted.
The committee agreed to this. and will
so report to the council

A. L. Walters has been arrested on in
formation filed before United States Com
missioner Kiefer by +. H. Coy. charging
him with violating the postal laws. Coy
alleges that he was negotiating the sale of
some mining property and that Walter,
who is mining broker, wanted TO get in

location of the mine, as well as the names
of the owners and the conditions on which

however, said that he had sent for . bond

sent in care of Walter. On its arrival at
the postoffice it was put into Walters box.

OPENING FOB FRAUD.
Democrats Trying to Put a
Scheme Through Court.
THEY OBJECT TO REGISTRATION.
Attempt - Annul Commissioners' Action
on Martins Creek Prscinct-En-
forcing Postal Lev.

The Democratic scheme for the colonial
ton of voters in this county in the newly.
created election precinct Of Martin Creek.
ia the extreme northeastern part of the
county, where the Great Northern line
crosses the range. having been baked by
the action Of the board of county commits
sioDers in also creating it q registration
district, the Democrats have resorted to
legal measures in order to win their point
and perpetrate a monstrous fraud on the
voters of King county. In this attempt
they have been Joined by their all but
avowed allies, the Peoples party.
An action was begun yesterday before
Judge Liehtenberg. who is Democrat
and candidate for reelection, by Gerald
Brown, vino is represented by Richard
Winsor, candidate for the superior
bench on the Peoples party ticket. petit
tioning for a review Of the proceedings Of
the county commissioners, and an order an
nuiling and vacating 80 much of the same
as orders the organization Of said Martin
Creek election precinct into q registration
precinct.
In his complaint Brown alleges that on
October the petitioners for the creation
OF said election precinct appeared before
the commissioners, who assured them that
two precincts would be created, one to be
known as Stevens City and the other, ly-
ing further east, as Martin Greek, and told
the petitioners to 60 to their homes and
tell their neighbors to prepare to vote at
tho general election in November. The
petitioners allege that, relying on this
promise, they went to their homes, but on
October the board created only one
precinct, and without authority of law or
dered registration made of the voters
In the precinct Brown further alleges
that unless the registration order is an
nulled and vacated he and others residing
in said precinct will be injured aud virtu-
ally deprived of the right Of casting their
ballots in the approaching election, on
Z account of the large extent of territory en-
braced in the precinct, and the wild and
unsettled nature of the country, and by
reason of the fact that the electors resid.
Ing in that territory are widely scattered
and remote from means of communication
with the outside world, or among them
selves, and that compliance with the order
OF the board is impossible. and its enforce
ment would result in the practical dis
reimbursement Of the petitioner and the
greater portion of the other electors resid-
ing within the boundaries of the precinct.
Judge Lichtenberg made an order re-
quiring the board of commissioners to
show cause on October 8, at 2 p. m, why a
writ OF certiorari should not issue to re-
view the records and proceedings of the
board in establishing tho precinct, and
why the relief prayed for should not be
granted. The defendants had to fight tor
any time whatever in which to prepare
their case.
