THE PROBLEM IS
STILL UNSETTLED

County Commissioner HANDLE was in Sc.
attic yesterday, endeavoring to arrive at
settlement IN regard to the handling
of the surplus water in the White and
Stuck rivers. L. C.. Smith, the King coun-
ty commissioner who has charge of the
matter for that county, was out of the
city, so the visit proved futile.
The commissioners of the two counties
tried to get together some time ago, but
failed. King county officials insisted, be-
fore proceeding with the conference, that
Pierce county drop the suit pending against
King county on account Of damages sus-
tanned by the overflow of the White river.
This the Pierce county commissioner would
not do.
1t is now proposed to divide the water
equally between the two streams, thus
greatly reducing White river and increas-
ing Stuck river to three times its normal
size.

to be much chance of the launch taking
place this week. Everything about the

check the way of the vessel after she
strikes the water, and prevent any posi-

Visitors will be allowed in all parts ol

SECRET OF AAARTINY'S DOWNFALL

The mysterious disappearance of DR..
Martiny, OF Eatonville, who is wanted for
embezzlement, has been cleared up by a
remarkable explanation. The report has
been circulated that in connection with the
search for Martiny it was found that he
had served four years in the San Quentin
penitentiary for forgery. After he got
cut he came to Washington to make a
new start. He succeeded better than he
expected, and had made for himself repu-
table name in Seattle, Tacoma, and subse-
qeuntly at Eatonville Several of his old
associates in the California penitentiary
found him and threatened to expose his
record unless he paid them hush money.

may not know it, but it is so officially de.

trustees of the United Presbyterian
church.
Mrs. Nation wanted to deliver a temper

sion was refused because the deacons decid-
ed that she is member of the giddy guild
of actresses.

actress and off the stage she is onel

Dr. Martiny did so, and once the thing
was begun they levied grinding blacl1mail
upon him that was beyond his means. All
of the profits of his hospital at Eatonville
were absorbed and in addition he mis-
applied the school funds in his hands.
When exposure became inevitable he fled.
1t was learned recently that DR. Martiny
was in Mexico. In view of the facts
which it is said led to his downfall at
Eatonville, a number of his creditors will
not prosecute their claims against him.
Commissioner Mead says that SO far as
the officers are concerned, the case has
not been dropped nor the offer of a re-
ward for his capture withdrawn.

some of his debts. Most of his visits to
her were for financial aid. She said Dun
ming was very poor. She bought him
clothing and provided him with food. She
also gave him money secured from her nus
band. She did all his, she declared, out
of the kindness of her heart. She denied
writing anonymous letters to Mrs. Dun
ming or purchasing a box of candy or
arsenic, or mailing any candy.
She declared that while being interview
ed by Lizzie Livernash, the woman re-
porter, she became hysterical and may
have said things that appeared incrimn-
ating, but she had no recollection of
them.
