NOT IN CONDITION..
Probably No Trial Of Goodwin for AS
saut on Fall.

Saco Me. Jan. John Goodwin Of
Lebanon will probably not be tried at
this term of the supreme court on the
charge of assault with intent TO kill
Charles W. Fail. lumber contractor
Of Berwick. The county attorney said.
Wednesday. that the victim would not
be in condition To testify for the
state at this term. His condition is
not as favorable as Il week ago, Yet his
friends hope for his ultimate recovery.
Another reason why the prosecuting
officer has decided not to try the case
at this term is that if Fan should die
after his aSsailant had been tried for
assault with intent TO kill. this would
end the matter, as the respondent could
not again be tried. The county officer
prefers to wait until May.
Fall is still in the lumber camp. His
relatives fear that he may be strick
with pneumonia. The bullet passed
through the right lung. The camp is
not as tight and comfortable as
house.

House Aims to Reduce Unlimited De
bate to an Absurdity.

Washington, Feb. 13.-The United
States senate seems to have embarked
upon we'll nigh impossible feat, that
Is, of disposing of the business neces-
sary before the close of the session, and
also trying an impeachment case where
many witnesses will have to be sum-
moned and great deal of testimony
submitted, to the followed by the argu-
ments of the attorneys for Judge
Swayne and the managers of the house
who are conducting the impeachment.
There is a suspicion that the house
of representatives put the impeach-
ment case into the senate at this SEES
sion for the purpose Of taxing the rules
OF that body to the utmost, and to show
that its unlimited debate is impractica-
BILE in legislative body. But what
ever may have been the purpose, it is
evident that the house has unloaded
upon the senate job which makes it
almost impossible to conclude public
business and adjourn at the time con
gress expires.
Senators say there is no question
about this, and that they will be able
to get through with the impeachment,
and also to pass the necessary legisla-
ton, which must be concluded by noon
on March 4.

TANNER INDICTED
BY GRAND JURY
| MItcheII's Law Partner Charged with
Crime Of Perjury.
Swore Falsely to Protect Senator from
Second lndictment-Charges Made
Against Seven Others at the Same
Time-Brother of State Treasurer
in the Tolls.

Portland, Feb. 0. = Judge Albert II
Tanner, law partner of John III. Mitch
ell, and one OF the most prominent at
torneys and citizens of Portland, was
indicted yesterday afternoon by the
Federal grand jury for the crime OF
perjury alleged to have been COMMITTEES
on January 81 while before the grand
Jury as witness in relation to the
dealings of Senator Mitchell with Fred
srick A. Kribs, the land speculator.
At the same time this indictment
was returned three others were also re-
ported to the court, one against Ham
lton H. Hendricks for subornation OF
perjury, one against George @. Brown
ell in amendment of the indictment for
subornation of perjury returned week
ago, and the last against Henry Mel
drum, George Waggoner, David w.
Kinnaird, Rufus S. Moore, brother OF
State Treasurer Charles s. Moore; John
w. Hamaker and Frank j. Van Wrinkle,
for conspiracy TO defraud the govern
ment.
The indictment OF Judge Tanner is
the most sensational returned for some
time, for it brings before the public
with unexpected suddenness the name
of man heretofore entirely unconnect-
ed by rumor or fact with the far-reach-
ing frauds now being unearthed. The
indictment further charges that it was
loyalty to his partner, Senator Mitch
ell, and wish to spare him from the
shame of the second indictment re-
turned week ago which caused him to
attempt to hide, according to the al
legations of the indictment, the true
state of affairs as existing in the bust
ness of their law office.
1t is alleged in the indictment that
Judge Tanner, while a witness before
the grand jury on January 81, 1905,
and while under oath, said that the
firm had received moneys and other
compensation for work done for Fred
erick A. Kribs, in expediting claims
through the general land office and
passing them to patent, but that OF
these sums received Senator Mitchell
had not received any part for himself.
This the government thinks is untrue,
and it will attempt to prove that Sen
ator Mitchell did receive money, placed
to his account by Judge Tanner at the
expiration of each month.

COOLEST IN YEARS.
Great Suffering Among the Poor of
Oklahoma as Result.

Kansas City, Feb. IA. - The coolest
weather in years prevails in this sec
ton tonight. At Kansas City it was
ls degrees below zero; at Concordia,
Kan, % below; at Lawton, Okla. 8
below and at Tulsa, /. T.. 40 below.
In Oklahoma and Indian Territory the
weather is the coolest since 1899, and
there is much suffering among the
poor, who were caught unprepared
Cattle also are suffering.
Great anxiety is felt for the Indian
tribes, who are in no condition to
withstand the storm, and experts say
that dozens of them will die as a result
OF the blizzard.
Railroad traffic is impeded in Kansas
by the high wind, which has piled the
snow in the railroad cuts. Most pas
senger trains are using double headers.
and freight trains are carrying only
non-perishable freight.
The west bound Santa Fe through
passenger train No. today collided
with a freigth train which was stuck
in snow drift near Newton, Kan. One
engineer was hurt and both engines
were smashed, but no passengers were
hurt.

Below Zero Weather Clear Down TO
Borders of Mexico.

Denver, Feb. 14.-Reports OF intense
cold, accompanied in sections by snow
fall, reached here tonight from Colo
RADIO, Wyoming and New Mexico. In
Southern Colorado and Nothern New
Mexico, the worst storm since 1885 is
raging. In New Mexico the storm
reached the proportions OF blizzard
and great damage to stock is reported
In the southern part of New Mexico,
where cold weather is rare, the zero
mark was reached at certain points.
The cold snap which has prevailed on
the eastern slope of the mountains in
Colorado for several days became in
tense last night, the thermometer drop
ping to 81 below zero in Denver at 6
O'Clock this morning. The cold also
penetrated the western slope tonight,
and Telluride report 20 below zero.
At Fort Collins, in the northern sec
ton of Colorado, % degrees below was
registered today, and at Monmouth, on
the divide south Of Colorado Springs,
it was 26 below. At Twin Lakse, near
Leadville, 32 below was reported.
In Wyoming the cold has not abated
and much loss to livestock, it is feared
will result. Railroad traffic in all d.
rections is seriously impeded, and tele-
graph and telephone wires are being
snapped by the cold.
The Parma herald. (Parma, Idaho) 1903-1917, 1905-02-18

As an outgrowth of the investigation
"a the General Slocum disaster the
house today passed number OF bills
amending the laws relating to steam
boat inspection service and making far
more rigid provision for the regulation
and control OF steam vessels. A bill
was also passed authorizing the con-
struction OF bridge across the Pend
d'Oreille and Kootenai rivers In koote-
mai county, Idaho.
The entire time OF the senate today,
which was not spent in executive SEES
sion, was given TO the Swayne impeach-
ment triasl. Four witnesses were ex-
amined. In executive session eight
treaties OF arbitration between the
United States and European govern
ments were ratified. The treaties are
with Great Britain, France, Portugal,
Switzerland, Germany, Spain and Aus
tria-fiungay.

MAY BE WORSE THAN EVER.


London, Feb. IL. - There Is danger
of the Russian strike breaking out
afresh and in a worse form than the
present trouble, according to the Co.
pehnagen correspondent OF the Morning
Leader.
The propaganda being carried on by
the Russian Progressive party, the cor
respondent asserts, has been most sue
cessful. The police admit that there
are no signs OF an abatement of the
agitatin, while high official in the
Russian capital fears the trouble will
yet assume the proportions of general
uprising, much bigger than the last.
1.-THE seed of revolution he adds,
"has been sown among the soldiers
with apparent success" This last
statement Is most sinister. Had even
a portion of the troops joined the strik-
ers when the trouble first started, Rus
STA would undoubtedly now be in the
throes of revolution equaling, il not
surprising, the French revolution. Even
yet, should the disaffection obtain deep
root In the army, the outcome would be
appalling.

RECOVERED AFTER MANY YEARS
One of $4,000 900 of Stolen Bonds
Causes Three Arrests.

New York, Feb. o. - DR.. Lewis O.
Wilcoxson, who is under arrest here.
together with Joseph A. TAYLOR, of
White plains, N. Y, and James A .
Smith, Of this city, in connection with
the recovery of $40, 900 United States
government bond stolen from the Man
haitian savings institution in 1873, has
resided with bis wife and child at one
of the leading uptown hotels here for
nearly three years. He claims Chicago
as his native city, says he owns extern
slve mining interests in Alaska, and
has an income of $4,000 a month,
Nevertheless he spent the night in
prison in default of $4,000 bonds re-
quired by the Federal authorities. The
recovery of the bond was made through
the subtreasury in Wall street, where
1t had been delivered by bank mes
senger. Thirty of the same series were
taken in the Manhattan robbery. and
this is only the third one found
Two others were recovered in 1890
The police are now searching for
Samuel Warren Miller, from whom Will
coxson says he received the bond in
part payment for some Alaska minino
property last Monday.
Recovery of the bond recalls the rob-
perry, ~ years ago, of the Manhattan
bank, one of the richest hauls ever
made in America. The burglars so
cured nearly $4,000, 900 in cash and
negotiable securities.

Although the result of tho presiden-
tial election was known early In the
evening of November 8, IL was not until
today, when the house met In Joint
session, that Theodore Roosevelt and
Charles w. Fairbanks were officially
declared TO be elected. An immense
audience gathered to witness the Gers
mony.
The house devoted Ave hours today
TO debate on the railroad freight bill.
A number of the members spoke on
both sides OF the question.
Very little business was transacted
In the house today. Kearns, OF Utah,
claimed TO have voted against the joint

EIkins Bends to the Storm ana view
lands Suggests Simple Plan.
Washington, Feb. 13.--As showing
the drift of sentiment and the effect oil
the constant demand from every part OF
the country for legislation, 1t is noticed
that Senator Elkins has felt called up
on to deny that he has ever said that
there could be no railroad legislation
at this session of congress. On the
contrary, the senator is very careful TO
qualify everything he says in this re-
gard, so as to leave 1t an open question
as TO whether he opposes or faEors rail-
road legislation. The general impress
sion is tibet he does not believe in any
thing being done at this session.
Probably the most optimistic member
of the senate committee on interstate
commerce is Newlands, Of Nevada. He
sees no reason why there should be leg
islation, and he also suggests a plan
which might be practicable, and prob
ably would be adopted iii an ordinary
business institution. He suggests that
a number of prominent railroad men,
together with Messrs. Bacon and Fergu-
son, who have been most active in pre-
senting the side OF the shippers, meet
with the committee on interstate COM
MERGE and get down to business and
agree upon measure that will meet
all complaints He thinks that In
less than week these men could frame
bill which would pass both houses,
nd would be satisfactory to all inter-
ests OF the country and would not dis
turb business to any great extent.
Newlands has another idea which
might be taken into consideration by
those who are fighting all kinds of leg
islation; that is that it would be better
to pass some interstate commerce legis-
lation at special session rather than
have it wait until the long session If
congress, when it might be delayed for
many months. He takes the view that
something is bound to be done within
the next year, and it would be better
to have it done at once, even from the
railroad point of view.
