practises this worship of high explosives and
seeks to propagate anarchistic doctrines by
dynamite is a recognized. if a detested, element

reason for the reluctance of nearly every variety
of crank to experiment with dynamite lies IN It's

buy his material in smaller bulk than twenty
five pounds in this city, and this is quantity
that none but the most insane of fanatics cares
to handle To it store it he must have
permit from the Bureau of Combustibles. If he
buys a smaller quantity and brings it in from
New-Jersey a ferryboat he is at once liable
to five year prison term for violating the
United States law. In point of fact the umbrta

nence where dynamite was employed. The local
bomb belongs to the class one might call the

drowned before assistance reached
him. The facts in the case. as they
were detailed to Coroner Henry, are
as follows: The Gettles own a place

were at the mountain ranch, and the
mother was at Hilgard. The old gen
tleman was at the house and the son
was working about the place. The
old gentleman needed some water,

spring into which he fell in some
manner. About o'clock the son
came to the spring for a drink and

Probable Identification.

1t is now believed that the body
floating in Big Eddy a little over a
month ago and buried here, was that
of Pat Kelly, who came to Antelope
from Hartford. Conn, last fall. and
had been working for sheepmen of
that section. He niysterlously disap-
peared a few days before the body
was found, and his continued alb
sence has led to the ,belief that he
lost his life by drowning in the John
Day river between Clarno's ferry and
the Farquhar McRae place, and his
body was carried down to the Co
1umbia.
Kelly left Antelope on the morning
of the 9Th of March on the Fossil
stage, and went as far as Clarno's
ferry on the John Day river. From
there he was directed to the ranch
of Farquhar McRae, to which he was
going, and during the day he left the
FERRY for that place. He never
reached the McRae ranch and since
that time no trace of him has been
found. The McRae ranch is down the
river from the ferry, and II Is thought
that while on his way down, or In
crossing the river, he lost his footing
and was drowned.-The Dalles Chron-

REoUIsITIoN FOR MILLER.
Aftermath From Failure of Bank OF
Sumpter.

The affairs of the Bank of Sumpter
which closed its doors last June, dr.
ter operating under the management
Sf Roy II. Miller, as president, for
something like four months, are to
be ventilated after n lapse of nine
months, says the Baker City Herald.
Sheriff Harvey X. Brown left here
Sunday morning for Salem, to secure
the necessary requisition papers from
Governor Chamberlain. and will go
from there to Tonapah, where he ex-
poets to place Miller under arrest.
For six months past Miller has been
bookkeeper at Bella Kadish's sampling
works at Tonapah.
The steps which are now taken are
the outgrowth of indictments found
by the recent grand jury Of Baker
county
The Bank of Sumpter, private In
stitution, was established in 1899 by
A. =. Goss, who had been in the busi-
ness In Canyon City. Its capital was
an unknown quantity, but Goss had
the reputation of being wealthy and
his loans and investments indicated
this. But the business waned and he
was for over n year, prior to last Feb
ruary, looking for a buyer
Just prior to that time Miller, who
was cashier of the First National
bank at Sumpter. had returned from
an extended trip to various points and
went into the latter institution.
1t was known that Miller was short

Scriber and others relieved him of
his holdings. The odium of freaky
finance had attached, however. and
there were several runs made upon
the First National, but Baker city
parties and others came to the rescue
and collapse was avoided.
Miller, in the meantime, was skirm-
ishing to cover his own shortages,
which involved the city of Sumpter,
of which he was treasurer. This
condition was not generally known,
however. until later.
Miller had known that Goss wanted
to sell, in fact was becoming more
anxious each day. and through the
kindly offices of C. II. McCulloch and
j. w. Connela, the deal was put
through, Goss taking some paper, a
$1,000 account, and leaving in the
vault $4,000. Miller said then that he
was buying the bank for other parties,
but by system of bookkeeping that

About this time Miller disappeared.

condition prevailed for n few days
and A. p. Goss was seen to be behind
the counter wearing n worried look.
