Bedford Knew Much of Employer.
Pittsburg, Pa, July 11--Pau Dorm, OF
Williamsburg, a suburb Of Pittsburg. a
new witness in the Thaw case, may
of the young Pittsburger charged with
the murder of Stanford White.
Dorm is the man whom Harry Thaw
took to Europe several years ago on a
supposed summer tour, out Dorm re-
turned alone two months after sailing.
Dorm was seen yesterday, but he was
not inclined to say much about his con-
nection with Thaw.
He did say that he sailed on May %
and returned on July 19, but would not
say Why he returned so soon, when he
expected to remain all summer, nor
would he give any details of his visit
abroad. Dorm, however, said he had
been instructed to keep his mouth shuA
and not say word until he had heard
from Tfaw's attorneys.
When asked when he expected to -
to New York Dorm said: Il don't know.
But am ready to go whenever Mrs.
Thaw is willing to give me an inter
view and I won't talk, either in the
court or out of it, until 1 have seen
her."
Did you ever meet Bedford, the
valet, whom Harry Thaw engaged az
Southampton"
Eyes, 1 did, and it is too bad that
Bedford died"
Dorm was asked what he meant by
that and replied.
well. he was good fellow, and if
he had lived and had to tell the things
he knew it would not look SO rosy for
Harry Thaw.''
How do you know that Bedford
knew all these things?"

GOOD CATTLE MARKET
Sellers of Choice Lot of Steers
Report 1t Best Of the
Season
$500 HOGS MAKE APPEARANCE
This Mark, Long Predicted, Was
Reached by Choice Offerings, Sell
ers Debating Prices From tho Start
Advance of Ten in Bulk Of Good
to Choice Lambs Today.
$500 HOGS MAKE APPEARANCE

Chicago. July 1l.--Cattle--The best
market of the season was reported by
sellers of cattle this morning. The bet
terment applied to a choice lot of
steers however, lower grades being
slow and hardly steady. Prime steers
sold at $3.50, five cents above the pre-
vious high mark of the year
The cattle which have lately gone
between $500 and $5.75 have shown big
gain in values as compared with the
range in the middle days OF June.
Steers up to $500 and above have also
made big advances when Il comparison
OF the quality OF the present day $500
steers is considered with those which
made $500 Il month ago. An exam
pie Of the advance, tho hardly one fur
nishing good criterion. was the sale
of fourteen loads of Dakota Texas
steers on Monday at $500. which We're
out of the same feeders as some sold
a month ago at s5.40@55O.
Conditions facing fat steer trade are
now in pretty good shape. The shipping
demand is big, as attested by the out
ward movement of nearly 1000 cattle
Tuesday, close to a third of the sup
ply. and there is healthy demand for
the fat kinds in local quarters, tho
the grassy and plain steers are natur-
ally not meeting very keen demand in
consequence of big marketing of Texas
cattle at this time. which latter beeves
buyers say are relatively cheaper "on
the hooks" than the natives.
Hogs.
The long predicted $500 hogs made
their appearance today. Sellers die
tated prices from the start, resulting
in an advance of SOLO cents from the
levels of the previous day. Choice
hogs reached $500.
Sheep.
The bulk of good to choice lots OF
lambs and yearlings sold at a 10 cent
advance. Spring lambs that showed
the right quality, We're eagerly sought
at $3.50.

PACKER ANGRY AT ROOSEVELT.
Nelson Morris Says Present Agitation
Is Ruinino Industry,

Denver, July 11.-Nelson Morris, of
Chicago showed intense bitterness to-
ward President Roosevelt yesterday in
an interview he gave out here. He
forecasts disaster for the cattle in
dustry and insists that the whole cru
SADIE against the packers is senseless
and founded on false reports. Our
trade is vanishing, and it will be taken
by Buenos Ayres and other South
American States" he said South
America will supply the canned meat
that we have been supplying to foreign
nations The west is being injured and
will be one of the principal sufferers.
The time is at hand when the west
again will have to raise cattle for their
hides"
Who is responsible for this state of
affairs? Did the stockyards novel
have much to do with it?" Mr.. Morris
was asked.
The book-nothing, exclaimed the
packer" There is only one man who
read the book
DO you mean President ROOSEVELT"
well. you know" returned Mr. Nor
ris. that book didn't have anything to
do with it,

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-05-25
APPRECIATED WORDS.

The heartfelt compliments paid the
East oregonian for its decided stand
for public and private decency, by the
NJ. E. conference jus, closed in this
city, are appreciated.
But no sane man should be compli-
mented for doing the right.
1t rs his plain duty.
1t seems to the East Oregonian that
no thinking man should be undecided,
wavering, doubtful on moral issues
at any time. There is but one side to
them-the right side, the side of de-
cency.
And while the East Oregonian ap-
preciates the encouraging words from
bodies of thinking men such as COM
pose the churches of Oregon. it would
do its duty just as fearlessly, just as
candidly and just as unselfshly,
though not a word of commendation
were ever heard.
There is supreme satisfaction in
knowing that one is fighting for the
right, although it does not always win
at first. The reward is in the strug-
gle. No good seed was ever sown in
vain. And some of the golden har-
vests of the world come after the
sower has returned to dust.
