kIsHENEFF TRIAL A MOckERY.
Public Opinion Seems United That the
Perpetrators Will Go Free.

LONDON, Nov. 20.-Private advices
from Russia unite in the opinion that
the trial of the perpetrators of the
terrible massacre of Jews of kishen-
eff is to be mere mOCkery. Accord
ing to official announcement the trial
begins today at kisheneff. The ar
rangements for the trial all tend to
show that the Russian government
does not intend light to be thrown on
its responsibility in connection with
the outrages. The minister of JUS
tice has ordered that the striCteSt Sc
crecy regarding the testimony shall be
maintained. thus excluding all report
erS from the courtroom. No report of
the proceedings viii reach the public
except through official channels, while
the Judges will all be dependents OF
the government. and the examination
of witnesses will be under the influence
of the administration authorities.
Although rumOrs of impending mas
SaCres We're current a fortnight be-
for the outrages, the indictment de-
MES that the massaCres We're the result
of previous organization. The indict-
ment. however. proves that the massa-
ores were not provoked by the exploit
alton of the local population by the
Jews, since it states that the chief par,
in the riots ives played by wOrkingmen
of the Russian central provinces, where
the Jews do not possess domiciliary
rights, and therefore cannot exploit
the Christians.

SERVED TERM IN WALlA WALLA Pen

The officers of Portland are seeking
a man named T. w. Parker alias T
w. Brown, who is wanted to answer tC
a charge of forgery. Parker has beer
operating extensively in the Oregon
city and although the officers have
been hot on his trail, he has eluded
them and disappeared. Parker is the
son of Colonel Parker, a wealthy stock
and mining man of Deer Lodge, Mont
Parker'S daring and audacity and his
success in battling the police and de-
tectives, who have been after him for
almost a week, is accounted one of the
most remarkable feats in criminal
practice on the Northwest coast. His
operations started last Sunday morn
ing. when he cashed a S65 check at
the Girard cafe. Next he tackled the
hotel Portland, then followed the re-
mainder of a long list on Monday and
Tuesday. Monday morning checks
were presented at the First National
bank, and it was then that Parker S
first crime was discovered. The police
were promptly notified of the facts in
the case, and Headquarters Detectives
Day and Weiner were detailed by Cap
tain of Detectives Simmons. They
some peculiar circumstance favorable
to Parker he has evaded them and
has at last managed to get out of the
city with his liberty.
At all of the places where the young
man passed checks he did so by the
aid of friends who had known either
him or his parents in Deer Lodge and
Butte, Mont. He is the son of Colonel
Parker, who was at one time Congress-
man from his district, and is one of the
most widely known men of Montana.
To queries sent him as to whether he
would make good the losses of those
suffering at the hands of his son, he
has replied that he would not; that his
forged checks, and that he is not re-
spOnsible for it.
Parker served a term in the Wash
ingtOn penitentiary of two years for
forgery being sent up from Pierce
county. After his discharge he secur-
ed position as head waiter in one
of the hotels in this city. About a
month ago he attempted to pass a
forged check at one Of the business
houses here but was unsuccessful. He
was arrested and taken to Jail, but the
charge against him was dismissed
He left Walla Walla as soon as he was
released from the county Jail and has
since been operating in Portland. A
few months before his release from the
Walla Walla pententiary he professeC
conversion to the Christian Science
faith and wrote a book entitled Let
terS of a Convict" which was full OF
expressions of piety and of desire te
lead an honest life. On his release he
was given a chance to make himself
a useful member of society but he
soon returned to his old tricks.

The Trustees Of the StubbIefeld Estate Make
Report to Commercial Club.
Place Total Vau on All Property Donated at Nine Thousand DOaS
Committee Makes Canvass Of Business Men and Secure Sucrp
tons...The Difference to be Raised

It has been practically settled that
the Stubblefield home will be located
at or near Walla Walla. This cOnclu-
sion was reached today, when the
trustees of the home gave to President
Harry H. Turner of the Commercial
Club the decision they had arrived at
concerning the donations that had been
offered.
The trustees met this morning and
after considering all the propositions
made and discussing the subject from
every point finally unanimously agreed
upon the matter. Their final conclu-
sions are outlined in the following let
ter:
Walla Walla, Wash. Nov. 20, 1903
Mr. H. H. Turner,
President of Commercial Club.
The trustees of the Joseph L. Stub
blefield estate beg to say that they
have carefully, as they believe, con-
sidered the values Of the several dona-
tons offered in connection with the
amounts to be donated to secure the
establishment of the Stubblefield home
in or near Walla Walla. The values
as placed below are as liberal as the
trustees feel they are justified in plac-
ing on the several pieces of property
and the donation offered. The trus
tees may possibly be mistaken in the
values but have exercised their best
efforts in doing full justice to all par
ties concerned.
The values as placed on the several
donations and what the trustees are
willing to receive the same at, are as

How ZONES Feels About It.

The Oregonian's special correspondent,
wiring from the National capitol last
Friday, has the following to say of our
own yakima" Jones:
Congressman Jones, of Washington,
arrived in the city today and called at
the White House to pay his respects to
the President. The President was an
xious to learn Mr.. Jones' attitude to-
ward the Cuban reciprocity treaty for
he recalled that in the last Congress the
Washington Congressman were among
the most vigorous opponents of reel
procity with Cuba Mr.. Jones said his
personal opinion had not changed, but in
view of the resolutions passed by the
State convention indorsing the treaty,
he would vote for the resolution.
Mr.. Jones later took up the case of
Bonded Superintendent Lynch, of the
Yakima Indian reservation, who rests
under charges of inefiiciency and neg
lect. He had no opportunity to review
the case at length, but next week will
hold another conference with the In
dian Office. He maintains that Lynch
is an honest, efficient official, and
will insist upon his retention.
The charges, however, and the show
ing made by Inspector Dickson.

Pretty Music by Local Composer.

Arie Hover, manager OF the local house
of the d. S. Johnston Piano Co., has
placed upon the market as publisher, a
beautiful piece of instrumental music
entitled "Tndian Belle Waltz" The mu-
sic is by Sidney S. Barker, either
player of local repute. 1t has been out
but short time, but the sales have been
phenomenal, and all musicians who have
tried it pronounce it very pretty indeed.
The title page is embellished with half
tone picture of a Yakima Indian maiden,
dressed in all the finery to which the ma
tive maidens are so susceptible. The
piece is the first bit of music ever pub
lished by local party and bids fair to
extend in popularity far beyond the
confines of Yakima.

To Build the Railroad Cutoff.

w. N. Granger, of Zillah, who is with

from that point:
Tell the Prosser people for me that
the railroad is sure, and that l have in

struct and operate the road in return
for the right-of-way and the grading of
the same"

While nothing definite is given out for

THOUSANDS OF SCIENTISTS.
Followers of Mrs. Eddy's Cult Gather
in Boston

A dispatch last night to the New York
World from Boston says: Thrice the great
area of Mechanics Hall was filled today
for the communion services of the Chris
tan Scientists. Fully 1900 people attend
ed the three services.
Contrary to expectations, Mrs. Eddy, the
founder of the church, sent a message from
Pleasant View, her home in Concord. N.
H. 1t was not the long annual message.
for Mrs. Eddy has communicated with her
church at intervals during the year and
had issued short letter.
The message was read to the great con-
gregation al each of todays public services.
1t contained an invitation to the Christian
Scientists gathered in Boston for this
nual convention to visit the mother Of the
church at her home tomorrow
Many thousands of the Scientists will
make the pilgrimage, and already numer-
Gus special trains have been chartered 1t
is estimated that about $4,000 members of
the denomination have come here to attend
the services. The first or mother church.
on Norway street, was open today and
services were held there. but there was no
hope of getting even a small part OF, the
great tnrong which has come to the con-
vention into the edifice. Accordingly, to
avoid crowding, tickets were issued to the
membership of the church. and none was
admitted to the church without a ticket.
Prof. Herman s. Herring. formerly OF
Johns Hopkins University. first reader of
the First Church. presided at the meetings
in Mechanics Hail. Edward A. Kimball
of Chicago read "a communication. which he
offered as message to be sent from the
meeting to Mrs. Eddy. 1t read:
Many of us have been redeemed from
the most obdurate sim Others who once
were dying have been restored to health
and usefulness. Coming thus. a peculiar
people, to bow in mute gratitude before our
God. we give thanks to Him for the Chris
tan salvation which legitimately heals the
sick as wen as the sinful.
No eucharist of material sort was pre-
pared for the communion. but the whole
conversation fell on their knees and dwelt
a moment in silent prayer. Then the Lords
Prayer was recited In concert and COM
munion was over.
