IS AFTER GOVERNOR OF ALASKA.
Hitchcock Is Examining the Deals
Made by Brady.

WASHINGTON, June ia special
agent of the interior department,
whose name Secretary Hitchcock re-
fuses to make public, has left Wash
ington to investigate Governor Brady's
connection with the Reynolds Alaska
Development company. Literature of
that company, issued last winter, car
ried Governor Brady's name as one of
the directors.
When this fact came to the attention
of Secretary Hitchcock, he called on
Brady for an explanation and broadly
limited that Brady would have to sever
his relations with the company or the
government Brady's reply was not
satisfactory in that he did not say he
would dispose of his stock in the COM
pany, but only that his name had been
withdrawn from the board of directors,
and that the later issues of the pros
pectus did not carry his name.
Later, President Reynolds of the De-
velopment compony, called on Secre-
tary Hitchcock and announced that at
the annual meeting of the stockholders
Brady had not been reelected direc-
tor He was asked to submit list OF
stockholders, but refused and was po-
litely told that the department did not
want to hear anything further from
him unless he produced the list.
1t is stated at the department that
snve the controversy began between
Hitchcock and Brady, letters have
been received from stockholders say
ing that they purchased stock on the
strength of Brady's connection with
the company.
Upon the presidents return from his
western trip the secretary took the
case up with him, and it is understood
recommended Brady's removal. The
president did not want to take sum-
mary action at that time, because OF
his friendship for the Alaska governor,
ana directed that further investiga-
IONS be made Until the special agent
report is received no further action IS
TO be taken.

shot and then dubbed. Mrs. Williams
lhroat was cut last Monday Her
body was found in bed. The mattress
was slashed and the murderer was

PLAN ON FOOT TO EXTEND
THOROUGHFARE FROM MAIN
TO ROSE STREET.
Matter Will Be Brought to Attention
Of Council at the Next Regu-
lar Meeting.

The need of opening First street from
Main to Rose street in order to relieve
congested travel in that part of the
business district is becoming so appar-
ent that in all probability the matter
will be presented to the council at the
next regular meeting. The plan is to
open up the street between the Armory
ana the Quinn property by bridging
Mill creek from the Main street bridge
to the curve in the bulkheading in the
rear of the Glove property on Rose
street, a distance of about $50 feet,
and then extend the street to Rose
through the Glove property. At pres
ent there is no intervening street be-
tween Colville and Second street. By
opening up the street the new Quinn
building to be erected in East Main
street for the John Smith company
would have frontage on two streets
instead of one.

landed at will while he was able to
evade the swings of his more clumsy
opponent.

stalled only to be caught by a right
hand swing to the jaw, which sent him
to the floor to be counted out. There
were loud cries of fake at the close of

was a fake it was a most clever one
