Fort Ross, Feb. 1S.-On Saturday morn
ing McAllister brothers and l.. Melina's
cabins were robbed in broad daylight by
two thieves. The men had gone out to

The thieves stole provisions, dry goods,

One of the thieves had been here before,

ble-barrel shotgun. When seen they ran
for a canyon. The people will try hard to
capture them. The total loss will cover

The Oregon Navigation Company Wants
Receiver McNeiI Removed.


Receiver McNeit Removed.
PORTLAND, Or, Feb. 1s.-The Oregon
Railway and Navigation Company to-day
filed its answer to the complaint of the
Farmers Loan and Trust Company, under
which Mcneil was appointed receiver of
the Oregon Railway and Navigation Com
pany.
The answer alleges that Receiver Nc
Neill has not controlled or operated the
lines and properties in the interest of the
defendant or for its benefit; and further,
that Receiver Mcneil, for the express
purpose OF preventing the earning
and receipt of sufficient revenues
with which to meet and pay off all the
erestrequirementsa and the coupons now
due on the mortgage of the Farmers Loan
and Trust Company, has diverted the
| freight and passenger business originat-
| ing at Portland and destined to Port
land, and which ought properly to be
transported over the whole main line of
the o. R. and n. to a connection with
other lines at La Crosse Junction and
other points in the State of Washington
! and elsewhere.
This allegation refers to the traffic ar
rangements between Receiver McNeill and
the Great Northern, under which con-
siderable amount of through business
comes via Spokane instead of Huntington
The defendant further alleges that not
withstanding the diversion of business
from the main line by Receiver
Mcneil, he has received and now
has in his possession sufficient reve-
nues not subject to lien or prior
demand to meet and pay off all the inter-
est of the coupons of the Farmers Loan
and Trust Company mortgage; that this
| should be done, and that the road should
be returned to the corporate officers of the
Oregon Railway and Navigation Company.
Defendant asks that the complaint be
dismissed, with costs.

:. Leon Dennery, member of the execu-

Committee, said:
Naturally the first steps viii be taken by the
Republican State Central Committee, but after
that the movement should be non-partisan.
There should be no question about that, Tor it
would be of the greatest advantage to this city
and 10 the whole West to have the national
convention meet here. A meeting should be
called OF those most interested of both parties
among the down town merchants, the capital
lists, and, in fact, all our most active, energetic
citizens. Committees should be appointed,
composed of such men as those who have
takenhold of the San Joaquin Railroad project.

PLAcERv1LLE, Feb. 1S.-Henry Riley shot
and instantly killed man named Jere-
miah c. Wood in the doorway Of the lat

attempted to drive Wood from the house,
which the former claimed was on the land
of his employer at the time of the shoot

THE FIRST STEPS TAKEN.
A SPECIAL COMMITTEE TO ARRANGE
FOR A PLAN OF CAMPAIGN.

P. B. Cornwall, who had called the meet
ing of the executive committee of the State
Central Committee, said:
The members OF the committee have had very
short notice of the purposes of the meeting
and were not, of course, prepared to act The
questions as to what influences could be
brought to bear on the National Committee to
affect their decision in our favor and what
would be the political effect of holding the con-
vention here were discussed, and most of the
members were very much inclined to think
success was possible.
A resolution was adopted instructing me as
president TO appoint committee to look into
all these questions and report at the next meet
ing, which viii be held on Tuesday, and giving
me the privilege of using my own Judgment as
TO inviting other prominent Republicans not
members of the committee to the meeting,
which 1 shall probably do.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1S.-B. D. Caldwell, chair
man of the Western Trunk Lines Commit
tee, left tonight for st. Louis to confer
with the Missouri Pacific and the NJ. K.
and I. roads regarding the membership OF
these lines in the committee.
The attitude of the Rio Grande Western
in declining to become member as long
as the Union Pacific allowed its side trips,
which are allowed only because the Rio
Grande Western gives stop overs at Salt
Lake City, is likely to cause further com
piications in the West and it may be some
time before they get Strengthened out.
The Rock Island and the Burlington,
which are Eastern connections of the Rio
Grande Western, are disposed to take an
amieable view of tae situation and the
chances are that the trouble will be adj
iusted within short time.

AGAINST THE NEW LExOW Bill
Democrats Are Not as Friendly to the
Measure as SMpDOsed.


SACRAMENTO, Feb. 1S.-The new Lexow
bill introduced in the Assembly is
pronounced more barbaric than its
predecessor and will not command the
support of the Democrats who were sup
posed to favor the original measure.
1t is claimed that if the new bill becomes
law the whole method of procedure will
be reversed and that man accused, in
stead of being regarded as innocent until
proven guilty, will be regarded as guilty
and with little opportunity to establish his
innocence.
Under the provisions of the bill it is said
that the accuser will be entitled to an
attorney and to immunity from punish
ment, not only for the crime in which he
gives evidence, but from any other crime
which may be charged against him, while
the accused will have no attorney and will
not be able to introduce evidence before
the commission to establish his innocence.
There is little likelihood of the new bill
becoming a law, and if it should pass the
Legislature, a most improbable contin-
gency, it is thought the Governor would
veto the measure.

will confirm Mr.. Colnon's appointment
without opposition tomorrow.
Ed McCabe, the executive secretary, will
succeed Mr. Colnon as private secretary. The
appointment of Mr.. Colnon is in line with
Governor Budds views as to the necessity
of investigating waterfront matters, and
he will without doubt carry out the wishes
of the Governor in this matter. While
