SAYS He WAS +.
NOT IN HIDING
RETURNS FROM
WASHINGTON AND DENIES HE
TESTIFIED AGAINST ERWIN.

SAN FRANCISCO, October Sd. S.
Richardson of the local Postoffice, who
was one of those involved in the
meanderings of the postal scandal
which is being Investigated at Wash
ington, arrived at his home in Oakland
at 10 O'Clock last night, having come
direct from the Nations capital. Rich
ardson said that he had no particular
statement to give and denied earnestly
that he had been keeping himself in
hiding. 2
Il can say nothing more about the
postal matter" said he, than has
already been published. 1 was called
to Washington to testify in the inves-
tigation that is now in progress there.
and at no time during my absence did
l make any attempt to keep in hid
ing. l have not to my knowledge
| been indicted. 1t has been said that
Mr.. Erwin's Indictment was brought
about through statements made,
! and 1t has been alleged that l tried
to throw the responsibility on Erwin.
! All that is false. 1 believe that his
! indictment was the result of his own
straightforward statement While
) was in Washington l stopped at a
well-known hotel, and could have
! been found there at any time. All
/ of this talk about my secretfug myself
! has been simply rubbish.
I THE investigation by the authori-
ties at Washington is being conducted
with the greatest care, and vigor-
out attempt is being made to ferret
( out Irregularities in the department ir-
respective of what heads may fall.
J do not believe that there is any like
/ .Iihood of an indictment being returned
/ against me, and am pretty certain that
none has been as yet. 1 went to
/ Washington purely as a witness, and
| testified as regards the Postal Depart
ment on this Coast"

STEAMER RATES
ON FLOUR co UP
NORTH PACIFIC ASIATIC LINES
ALMOST DOUBLE CHARGES, AND
WHEAT Is LIKEWISE AFFECTED

PORTLAND, Or, October AT a
meeting OF the freight bureau of the
Northern Pacifc-Atlantic steamship
lines held in Seattle the rate on Hour
from Portland and Puget Sound ports
has been raised from SO to 50 per ton.
The rate on wheat nd all other COM
modities has been raised in corre-
spending ratio. The new tarin Will go
into effect on November LIST
The rate war which has prevailed for
several months was precipitated by the
China Commercial Company, operating
a line from San Francisco to the Orient.
The rate on flour to the Orient from
San Francisco was cut to 81 per ton,
but the Northern lines never made a
lower rate than SO per ton.
The determination to increase the
rates, it is asserted, will have an inn
portant bearing upon the local wheat
market. Japanese importers took ad-
vantage of the rate war to secure large
quantities of flour presumably for
speculative purposes. All the mills in
Oregon and Washington have been kept
running to their full capacity to supply
the demand. They had agents through
the inland empire gathering up all the
wheat that could be secured for imme-
date delivery. AS a consequence the
price of wheat began to rise, and many
farmers refused to sell.
Exporters who are anxious to send
cargoes to Europe were unable to buy
wheat for export at the prevailing
prices, and as a result there have been
practically no ships chartered to load
for European ports. 1t is now believed,
however, that there will be a change in
the situation.

be a contagious disease and he was
taken ashore at the island port AS a
result of the diagnosis the steamer was

larly careful scrutiny, and DR.. Cum

CHARLES EDWIN LEvEs DEAD.
Oldest Compositor on Evening Star
and Longest in Service.


After an illness of about a year and a
half, the latter months Of which he was
confined to his bed, Charles Edwin Leves,
the oldest employee Of The Evening Star
composing room and the longest in con-
tinuous service, passed away this morning
at his home, 1928 Corcoran street.
Mr.. Leves was born February 4, 1926.
He was of an old Maryland family, and
was cousin Of former Governor Hamilton
of that state, He. came to. Washington
when a boy and learned the printing trade.
AS a young man he assisted in setting the
type for the first numbers of The Evening
Star. . . z
From the little dingy Office at Sth and D
streets where The Evening Star had its
unpretentious birth, Mr.. Leves remained
on the pay roll Of the paper through all
the wears of Its early vicisstudes and up
to the time of his death. He saw it grow
from a modest five-column folio, printed on
a hand press, to a modern mulu-page met
ropolitan journal, with linotypes and per-
fecting presses.
Mr., Leves was devoted to his trade and
unremitting in his loyalty to the paper he
loved. He was a favorite among the men
with whom he labored. all of whom regard
ed him with reverence and affection. Year
in and year out he placed the 'leaden mes
sengers of thought on end. When ma
chimes supplanted hand composition he was
too Feeble to perfect himself III NudL - III
reality a new trade. His long and faithful
service with The Evening Star was not for
gotten, and he was retained in the compo-
siton Of advertisements.
The disease which undermined his constt-
tuition made it's appearance several years
ago, but it was not until the summer of
1901 that he found himself unable to per-
form his usual daily labors. Often he was
compelled to remain away from the COM
posing room day or so at time. Finally
it became necessary for him to cease work
altogether.
He evinced great interest in the half
century anniversary of The Evening Star,
and to his friends who visited him ex-
pressed the earnest hope that he might live
to see the paper celebrate the event. This
he was permitted to do, and he read with
pleasure the history of The Star, mar
rated in the columns of the souvenir num-
berlin the history Of which he had borne
so conspicuous a part.
Charles Edwin Leves was Of lovable
disposition. He was a man who made
friends and kept them. He leaves widow,
Mrs. Rosamond c. Leves, with whom he
lived in happiness for fifty-three years.
The funeral will be held from the home
tomorrow at $50 am. The body will be
taken to Hagerstown, Nd, for interment.
A committee Of employees from The Even
ing Star composing room will attend the
funeral and will act as pallbearerS.
