it ran into e. E. Johnson's yard and
was making straight for Mr. johnson.
Just then his pet dog came out of the
house and the mad dog pitched on to
it biting it in one of its legs. 1t then

IRWIN Bros.
CLAIM GRAIN

The preliminary hearing Of J. L.
Irwin and A. Irwin of lilo is being
held in the probate court this after
noon. l.. +. Williams Is the COM
planning witness in the case and he
alleges that the defendants are guilty
of grand larceny by breaking and en-
tering into a building with the intent
of committing larceny.
1t appears from the evidence that
Williams leased his farm, near Ilo, to
Sam Hollenbeck for last season. Mr..
Hollenbeck released it to the Irwin
Bros. and they raised a crop and had
it threshed. While the grain was In
the field some of it was stolen and
the Irwin brothers claimed the stolen
portion belonged to Williams. They
then hauled all of the grain and stored
it in house on the Williams farm.
williams ordered the defendants to
take the wheat out. which they did not
do at the time and he locked up the
house. The defendants later went in
and took the wheat out and hauled 1t
to Culdesac and sold 1t.
The defendants claim that the land
was not the property Of the complain
ing witness at the time the wheat was
taken out this with the question Of
ownership Of the grain Is the strongest
point made by the defendants.

FUEL FAMINE AT WALLA WALlA
Committee Appointed to Investigate
the Situation.

The Walla Walla Union says Of
the fuel famine in that city and the
efforts to relieve it:
The inability of dealers in Walla
Walla to supply the demand for coal
has caused some CONSERVATION among
the citizens and the reports of the
possibility of a fuel famine this win
ter have caused considerable uneasi-
ness. While there is an inadequate
supply of coal. and the prospects are
not favorable for any large shipments
in the near future. the dealers are of
the opinion that the supply of wood
will be sufficient to prevent suffering.
At a meeting of the directors of the
Commercial club Friday evening the
question Of the fuel supply for walla
Walla was discussed and committee
consisting Of RI. Fl. Turner and Ben
G. Holt was appointed to investigate
existing conditions.
Cause OF shortage.
S. p. Calderhead. general freight
and passenger agent Of the W. & c.
r. railway. was present at the meet
ing and gave some valuable informa-
ton In regard to the cause of the
scarcity Of coal at the present time
He stated that the shortage was due
to the inability Of the mining COM
panies to secure laborers and that
most Of the output Of the mines was
consumed by the railroads and steam
ship lines which are handling an un
precedented volume of business On
account Of the exceedingly heavy
shipments Of all kinds Of freight
throughout the entire country It has
been impossible for the railroad COM
panies to fiji the demand for car.
which fact also has considerable Il
do with the coal shortage.

GARRISON OF AMERICAN TROOPS
IN SANTA CLARA PROVINCE
LARGELY INCREASED.
LAWLESS BANDS OPENLY PILLAGlA6
INABILITY OF CUBAN RURALES
TO CONTROL SITUATION
PLAINLY APPARENT.

Washington, Dec. 27.-Secretary
Taft has received advices from Gov
ernor Magoon, at Havana, stating that
a more or less unsettled state Of af-
fairs exists in certain parts Of Cuba
and that in Santa Clara province law
less bands are operating and pillag-
Ing. Therefore at the governors in
stance General Bell has ordered con-
siderable reinforcement of the gar
rison of American troops in that prov
ince. ~.
For the first time since the second
occupation Of the island by the Amer
leans it has become necessary for the
troops to undertake the suppression OF
these disorders instead Of leaving this
task to the native Cuban rurales,
which in some quarters is regarded as
an Indication of the inability of the
Cuban civil authorities permanently to
maintain peace in the island. General
Bell, in company with General Whit,
who will succeed him Jan. 1 in COM
mand of the American troops in Cuba,
is now making a tour of the island
with special reference to the military
necessities in case further disturb
ances occur.
