company Of this city, came up before
Judge Huffman this afternoon. Clarke

that Clarke is not only guilty OF OBJ
tanning money under false pretenseS
but also is guilty of forgery and they
intend to lodge another complaint
against him. They say that he got
persons to sign blank contracts on one
pretext and another and then filled in
different amounts of money above with
the intention of collecting ana keeping
the money HIMSELF that he would also
get payments on Il machine and then

Mr.. CaSWell was informed by wire to-

that the O. r. & n. and Northern Pa
cific would provide sufficient cars to
accommodate the large crowds that are
expected to be in Walla Walla during

Portland, Tacoma and Seattle and in
termediate points has been placed at

formulated by Secretary Caswell the
Portland excursion train will leave
Portland Tuesday night, October II,
and reach Walla Walla the next morn
ing The trains from Seattle. Tacoma
Wednesday morning and reach this
city that evening.
Advices from the secretary of the

to the effect that there will be an i'm

them to come to Walla Walla during
the week.
Arrangements are also being made
to run excursions from all the cities

Judging from the amount of interest
