Implicated.

PORTLAND, Or, May 31.-A conspiracy
involving a plot to rob the registry de-
partment of the United States postoffice

suit, Julian E. Epping, superintendent
of the registry department of the Port

arrest charged with conspiracy, and
later in the day George T. Watson, a
city jailor at the police station,
John Simpson,, a blacksmith, and
Charles w. Holsapple, of the city
detective force, have also been ar
rested upon similar charges. The ar
rests have caused a great stir. The
conspiracy was revealed to the postal
authorities by Eugene Gautier, who
claims to be one of the c~onSpiratOrs.
The plan was that whenever a large
sum of money was passing through the
registry office, Epping was to inform
his associates, who We're to hold Epping
up and rob his safe. The blowing of
the safe was t be the part of Simpson.
If this had been accomplished the city
officials were to see that the guilty par.
ties were not apprehended. Gautier al
leges that it was the intention of the
co%nspirators to have put their plan into
operation some time ago, but that some
of the men We're distrustful of Simpson.
Postal Inspector Threll claims to have a
large amount of discriminating eviden t
against Epping.

headquarters.

that since the meeting at Springfield,
i'll 1890, the membership has increased
from 1000 to 10000, and the number
of camps from LOO to 1880; that the
death rate has decreased from 5.4l i'll
1893, to AGO in 1896, and the cost #
management from $1.62 in 1899 to 81
