If common sense, instead
OF fine legal technicalities,
prevailed in the deliberations
Of the supreme court, the de-
pository law would not have
been killed. 1t is not right
that the state funds should be
left idle and producing no in

vested by the treasurer and

and should be revived by the

Four hundred people took part in
a monster rabbit drive near PendletOn

and eight thousand rabbits were cap
tured and it was said to be the largest
drive ever held. The circle Of hunt

three miles. The rabbits were so
thick that the ground seemed to be

corral and killed with clubs. Teams
bringing in the dead arrived at Echo

TRIAL COURT REVERSED
Ex-MAYOR AMEs OF MlNNEAPo.
LIS GIVEN HIS FREEDOM az
SUPREME TRIBUNAL.

st. Paul. Jan. 3O.-Dr. A. A. Ames.
four times mayor Of Minneapolis, is
again a free man. The state supreme
court has rendered an opinion up
holding the indictment, but declares
the evidence does not sustain the con-
viction secured hereunder.
The courts opinion is unanimous
az to result, but divided as to reasons.
The majority opinion, written by
Justice Lewis and concurred in by
Chief Justice Start and Justice Col
Inns, is a surprise alike to defense
and state. It overturns the lower
court on point hardly emphasized
by the defense. while sustaining the
state on the contention which the
state feared most and which the de-
Tense based all it's hopes upon.
The court says the indictment was
valid and charged but one offense,
but declares that the state did not
prove the offense charged.
DR.. Ames Is now free man unless
he can be indicted again upon some
other charge.
DR.. Ames was under sentence of six
years in state prison on conviction Of
the crime of accepting bribe from
women of the town.

Toxic, Feb. 3.-Russia's reply is not
expected to reach here before the
middle or latter part Of the Weeh.
From remarks dropped by high Off
cials little hope is entertained that
Russia will in any degree relinquish
her claims in Manchuria. but is sup
posed to be simply prolonging the ne.
gotiations in order to strengthen her
forces in various points.
A large force of Russians is said to

TANGO in the event of Russia deciding
to carry the war into Korea as she is
expected to do.
An impression prevails here that
hostilities may be postponed until
March, but will surely come about
then, as both countries will by that
time be fully prepared in all points
for an extended struggle.
Conditions in the Korean capital
are said to be far from satisfactory

WITH LIMITED POWERS
RESIDENT COMMISSIONER FROM
PORTO RICO IS ADMITTED
TO TtaE HOUSE.

Washington, Feb. ga report from
the committee on rules giving the resi-
dent commissioner from Porto Rico,
Mr.. Degetau, the privilege Of the floor,
the right to address the house and
representation on committees on In
sular affairs, was called up in the
house by Mr.. Dalzell as a privileged
matter when that body convened. Mr..
Williams, the minority leader, endeav-
ored to have the report recommitted
to the rules committee with an in
struction for a resolution giving the
Porto Rican resident commissioner all
OF the powers and rights Of dele
gate from q territory. This, it was
stated, would give him few addi-
tional privileges.
The previous question was ordered
on the resolution and forty minutes
debate ensued-
Mr.. Cooper (Wis.). chairman of the
insular affairs committee, although
supporting the resolution. believed
Porto Rico, with 100000 inhabitants,
was as much entitled to delegate in
congress as Hawaii, with less than
100000 inhabitants.
The resolution was unanimously
agreed to and the speaker announced
amid applause. the appointment OF Mr.
Degetau as a member of the house
committee on insular affairs.
On motion of Mr.. Mahon (Pa) the
house began the consideration Of bills
on the private calendar.

TO SAVE CAR FARE.

The Bemidji Pioneer, relates story
OF how Minnesota man bundled his
wife into box and checked her as
baggage from Mentor to Buford, n.
Oak, and but for the fact that the
train was late the plan would
probably have worked out all right.
Unfortunately, however there was a
delay Of two hours, during which time
the box with its human freight lay on
the platform in the bitter cold. The
woman was plucky and determined
and stood the uncomfortable situation
as long as possible. But fear Of freez-
ing to death together with the pain
from her cramped position, caused her
to make her presence known. Her
cries were heard by the station agent,
and he opened the box to find the
woman in q bad way from the suffer-
ing endured.

SENT TO THE POWERS
ASSISTANCE OF RUssIA's REPLY
COMMUNICATED TO INTER
EsrEp NATIONS.

Paris, Feb. 3.-The Havas agency
has circulated dispatch to the effect
that Russia's reply to Japan, the sub
stance of which has been communi.
Gated to the foreign chancellories
everywhere, has made an impression
that war viii! be avoided.
Views have been exchanged be-.
tween the United States, France and
Great Britain on the subject. The
concessions therein go beyond general
expectation and illustrate the senti.
ments of equity and loyalty actuating
the czar.
If, in spite of the very large salts.
faction Japan will receive" continues
the dispatch, "the issue Of the crisis
should be war Japan will incur the
whole responsibility and ind herself
morally isolated"
Reply Not Finally Drafted.
The reply, the Havas agency says,
only awaits it's final drafting and will
be presented Feb. 6.
The French foreign Office authorizes
. denial of the report, printed in New
York and emanan1g from Paris, to the
effect that the French and British gov.
ernments had agreed to exert pres.
sure on Japan for the acceptance OF
the coming Russian reply. It is spe-
cifcally asserted no exchanges relat-
ing to the Russo-Japanese situation
have occurred between the French and
British governments for more than
ten days. Some time ago, while re-
ports OF mediation were current, q
general understanding was reached
by which, in their own way, Great
Britain at Toxic and France at St.
Petersburg, would seek to secure a
pacific adjustment, but this related to
the former condition when the Japan
ese note was pending. Since then
there has been no agreement and no
negotiations toward an agreement
concerning the coming Russian reply.

Along with the liquidation Of bull

The fall was checked about an hour
after it began by renewed bull sup
port, said to be for the account of New
Orleans interests, and those who had
sold short hurriedly started to buy
again. These purchases caused q
quick rally of from 70 to IS points and
there the market steadied, after prob.

ever known.
