APPARENT SHORTAGE.
Discovered in the Accounts of Ex-Sberif

Discovered in the Accounts of Ex-sberif
| M'Graw,
SEATTLE, March 2O.-As side issue
of the investigation now going on al
the county courthouse to discover the
exact condition of the road and bridge
fund, from which it is claimed much
money has been stolen by road super
visors and their confederates, expert
accountants have reported an. appar-
ent shortage in ex-Sheriff John II. Nc
Graw's accounts of between $4,000 and
$4,000. Ex-Sherif McGraw is now ex.
Governor McGraw.
In talking of the alleged shortage to
the associated press correspondent to-
night, the ex-governor said that up to
the time he had been afforded the op-
porUunity of making hasty examina-
tion of the experts report, he had inn
plicit confidence in the thoroughness
and integrity ofhis deputies and clerks.
He said, however, that he was inclined
to think that there was shortage, and
he would take immediate steps to see
that it was covered. The amount
claimed to be due from the ex-sheriff Is
SSS9O, and he will put up that amount
on the condition that, if the claim is
excessive, he will be allowed rebate.
OF course, this is subject to the provis-
ion that an investigation shall show
that there is an actual shortage.

Up to Date Service.

A great many Pacific coast people
when contemplating a trip east and
when bringing friends west, know
very little about the interior lines, and
the object of this article is to afford re-
liable information.
In the first place for good time and
service select a route via st. Paul and
Minneapolis, because the lines that
wav are continuous under one system
without any change of cars, and every
man from peanut agent up, is cour-
teous, reliable and experienced officer,
ready to aid and protect you in every
emergency and capable of making you
feel at home and comfortable during
the long journey. Then see that your
ticket reads via the Wisconsin Gem
tral lines, because that thoroughfare
affords strictly first-clsss service, and
the meals on its dining cars always
reasonable in pricel are equalled by
few and excelled by none. Geo. S.
Batty, 246 Stark ST., Portland, Or, is
general agen. for this company and
will cheerfully furnish you neat and
handy calendar and full information
on the subject of transportation, If adj
dressed or called upon, and any agent
will upon application, sell you ticket
over the Wisconsin Central Lines#

BLOCKADE HAS BEGUN
Greek Ships Will be Prevented
From Approaching Crete.

Umpqua Trapper.
Ex. Governor McGraw Was short in His
Accounts When Sheriff-Democrats

Expire.
HAL WAS MURDERED

CANEA, March 21.-The situation ! n
Crete today may be described as one of
expectancy. This morning the fact
that the blockade had formally begun
was generally communicated from
Canea to all points in the island in toe
telegraphic circuit.
Pillaging still continues. Three
Turkish soldiers who were caught in
the act of pillage Saturday night at
Halepa fired on the gendarmes, who
returned the fire, killing one of them.
Some doubt is now expressed by Of
fc, ais here as to whether Colonel Vas
sos. commander of the Greek forces in
Crete, will be able to hold out long,
owing to the scarcity of provisions. 1t
is denied by the officials that there
is friction between the admirals and
the consuls.

A Toothsome story.

Mr.. George Donahue, who is en-
gagged in mining in the virtue mining
district made an important discovery
few days ago, but it was not a rich
quartz ledge this time, but the tooth
of some prehistoric monster that used
10 cavort and ramble around the sage
brush plains of Oregon ages before
Noah was a sailor, says the Baker City
Republican. This tooth even in its
extreme old age, weighs 81 pounds
and measures 9 inches in length and
5x3 inches across its face. Trigss and
circles are in perfect condition and
bears no sign of ever being afflicted
with the toothache. A few years ago
some bones belonging to some extinct
an imal were found in the same section
