Returns
President Enjoys Visit to Panama

The chief executive of our
country has returned from
is visit to the isthmus. The
trip was a remarkable one.
The president made a journey
of several thousand miles by
stage and covered not only
Panama but Porto Rico as
we'll. The United States is
glad to have him back.
The president is loved
throughout the entire country.
One reason for this is because
OF his strict adherence to up
right principles. A reputa-
ton for right methods carries
weight into every life and
business. The Guardian Life
Insurance company of Seattle,
has the confidence of the peo-
pie thru it's business intregity
and uprightness. Men and
women are insured at the
same rate. p. j. Perry local
agent, room IA Dabney Block.

That is, it slips back just enough
to show part Of the number un-

be made to show 81. Each num-
Der was represented on the wall
by numbers to which hung
valuable watches, revolvers and
other articles which the sucker"
supposed he had chances Of win

shoot for the prizes"
When Dixon was searched at tn
e police station a revolver was
taken from him. He claimed to
have ben a farmer Of Republic,
Wash. He already had ticket to
Republic and baggage receipt.
Under careful sweating by Ser
geant Sullivan he confessed the
whole scheme and himself a party
to it with five others. Edwards
made the same confession.
When the officers made sure or
the scheme being bunco from
start to finish, Sullivan, Lister and
Harry Draper raided the place and
secured the paraphernalia.
Other men who are supposed TO
have some connection with the
scheme approached the place while
the officers were there, but hurried
away as soon as they saw what
was going on.

STILL NO CLEW 80 LIVES LOST

Detective Alec Macdonald re-
turned yesterday from Portland,
Ore, where he went to work on
the Hutchinson murder case. He
says Mrs. Hutchinson admitted
that she had noticed her husband
was worrying much several weeks
before his murder and had fallen
off in weight. Said Macdonald:
81 ascertained bey\nd the question
Of a doubt that the person our de-
partment suspected, and whom l
went to Portland to look up, had
no connection with the murder. He
was a former sweetheart OF Mrs.
Hutchinson. | believe we will es-
tablish the identity of the murder
err. The Portland department gave
me every assistance in its power"
The detective stated today that be-
fore he will believe the report that
the bullet found was an ordinary
soft-nosed bullet he will have to
see it. He saw 1t before leaving,
and although he did not examine 1t
carefully pronounced It a steel
nosed bullet such as fired from an
automatic revolver.
No further clews have been dis
covered here.

HAS WALLER
; RELENTEO?

VIII Chief Of Police Waller be
called on the carpet and maybe
fired when Mayor Daggett gets
back from Seattle? This is the
question at the city hall. It Is
limited that as soon as the mayor
left the city raids on "tenderloin
joints" ceased as suddenly as they
began.
The chief declares that no rever-
sion Of the cleanup" order has
been attempted, and that II no
further arrests have been made 1t
Is because the work already done
has freed the city of characters in
cluded in the mayors decree.
1t is evident that what has been
accomplished has put check to
the "box rustling" trade for awhile
at least. Some of the women have
left the city. but number Of
others are said to have simply
moved their field of operations to
Second avenue and that part of the
city.

tickled today than since the times
when his little brother used to
tickle the bottom of his feet or
save him the core of his apple.
Six couples took out licenses be-
fore IL o'clock, and that was what
caused "Cupid's" large smile. They
were: Charles McHaney to Mrs.

MURDER INSTEAD
OF SUICIDE

The supposed suicide found at 6
O'Clock yesterday morning in the
lumber yard near the o. r. & N.
depot was identified today as
James Weir, a lumber man of Har-
rison, Idaho. The police have
shown a disposition to keep from
the public the fact that the man
was murdered, claiming to have
convincing evidence Of suicide.
Dan Mclsaacs, bartender at the
Cascade saloon, Is the man who
first gave the clew to the mans
identity. Weir had hung around
the saloon for the past few weeks.
Mclsaacs says that the night be-
fore he was found dead the man
had plenty of money and a bank
book and watch. When found yes
terday morning by Patrolman Rolf
there was nothing on the body by
which Identification could be made.
The police today are working on
the theory that it was a carefully

and for other alleged irregularities,
A. F. KEGS has been fired from the
position Of warden of the state
penitentiary at Wala Walla and
M. e. Kincaid, Of Seattle, appoint
ed in his stead.
Kincaid was chairman of the
state board of control that bounced
KEGS. Governor Mead has named
Senator Piles brother Mathew to
succeed Kincaid on the board.
The board of control announces
it has learned that KEGS sold
grain bags from the state jute
mill, presumably for the fun Of the
thing, as the board stated its dis
belief that he profited by the trans
action. The charge that convicts
leaving the prison were provided
with caste clothing instead of the
suits furnished them by the state
at SIS per were also considered.
Nothing is hazarded as to who
profited by this arrangement.
KEGS is now out with a bitter
statement in which he dubs Gov
ernor Mead as a "jellyfish" and at
tributes his downfall to D. B.
Croker, republican state boss.
KEGS says he won't quit until he
has been investigated. The affair
promises a ripping up In republican
politics.

planned holdup and murder from
the start. The liver Johnson re-
volver which was found between
the mans legs, lending light to the
suicide theory, was kept in a
drawer at the Cascade saloon fop
a long time and Sunday night
Weir took 1t out with him. At Sa-
cred Heart hospital, when the
nurses tied up the wound, it was
discovered that the back Of the
skull bore a fracture which was
supposed at the time to have been
caused by the bullet. Examination
later showed 1t to have been in
ficted by some sharp instrument,
probably a stone.
1t is supposed that after telling
their victim, the holdups in reliev.
ing him Of his valuables, discov.
cred the revolver and fearing de-
lection, shot him in the mouth and
then placed the revolver between
his legs so as to bear out the sui
eide theory.

A big bunco game that has
netted thousands of dollars to the
operators during the last few
weeks was unearthed this morning
by Patrolman Tom Lister. Last
night Joe Buckley, laborer on the
new Holly-Mason building, reported
to the police that he had been
buncoed out of $40 at the shooting
gallery located at 4O6 Main avenue.
Sergeant Sullivan this morning as
signed Lister to the case and Lis
ter arrested a man who gave tho
name of Charles Adams. He had
just opened up the joint. After
booking him at the station Lister
went back and got A. Stevens.
When searched Stevens had $425
in United States gold certificates
and $40 in cash. He denied that
any bunco was being worked at his
place of business and maintained
1t was legitimate shooting
gallery.
William Edwards, Walter Dixon
and Billy Nolan were also arrested,
the first two for "capping," as
batting the victim is called, and the
latter for playing into the scheme
by impersonating an officer. Nolan
was not booked on any charge, as
the evidence against him is not
thoroughly worked up.
Edwards and Dixon both confess
ed to being "cappers" at the place
at salary of So day. They ad-
mitted having worked for Stevens
with the same graft at the fair
grounds, where people were fleeced
of much money during the two
weeks the bunco game was in OPP
Grafton.
The scheme consists in shooting
with an air gun at a dial of blank
tickets. Under these blanks is an
other ticket numbered from one to

ASSESSMENT

J. NJ Moore faces peculiar
suit for 500. p. j. Mclaughlin, re-
ceiver for the Equitable Mutual
Fire Insurance company, of st.
Paul, Mimi, in complaint filed
in the superior court this morning,
says that last April Moore took
out two policies, paying $40 for
81. 900 insurance and $Ss for 81 400.
On the back of the policies was
printed a condition that the holder
thereby became member of the

That the existing coal shortage
In this city is in part caused by
the Northern Pacific Railroad com.
pany confiscating coal offered for
shipment is emphatically denied
by General Agent Mitchell and
other N. P. officials in this city.
In reply the railroad officials
point to instances where in past
periods when fuel was scarce they
have turned over railroad coal for
commercial use.
They claim to have no record of
any commercial coal consigned to
this city being confiscated. While
the company, like all consumers at
this time, is economizing as much
as possible in the use of coal, 1t is
not yet reduced to the extremity
of appropriating that consigned to
local dealers, it is stated.
Cars are scarce at this time
largely on accountof heavy grain
shipmentsh, but N. P. officials be-
lieve they will be able to obtain
all needed to bring down what
coal the mines at Rock Springs
and in Wyoming can supply.
The whole trouble, it is explain
ed, is caused by the inability of the
mines to fill their orders. Labor
has been scarce This year and the
coal mines, according to railroad
information, have suffered particu-
larly in this respect.

REFUSES AN
INQUEST
(Scripps News Associatioh.)

(Scripps News Associatioh.)
Coroner Witter today refused to
hold an inquest over the remains OF
James Weir, the man murdered in
the lumber yard near the O. Il.
& N. depot. The evidence In pos
session of newspaper men was sub.
mitted to him, but the coroner said
he didn't think an inquest would
bring out anything tending to
show who the murderer was. He
beblieves it plain case Of suicide.
Not even an autopsy was held by
which 1t might be shown whether
Weir died from the blow on the
head or the bullet wound.

OFFICIALS DENY
CONF|SCATINC COAL

That fuel would in all probability
be scarce. this fall was pointed CIT
by The Press months ago. At pres
emit dealers are unable to obtain
but little, If any, they claim. One
Of the excuses given is that the
railroad is grabbing it all, regard
less Of ownership, as it comes from
the mines.
There is, however, believed to be
no danger of suffering unless the
weather. classes corner the sup
ply as fast as it arrives at prices
beyond the reach of the average
citizen.
Wood can be obtained over sew
eral roads coming into the city,
several dealers said this morning,
but the supply available just now
Is rather limited on account of the
sudden increase in demand when
coal became scarce.
Reports of fuel scarcity in other
parts of this state and neighbor-
ing states are current daily. The
country Is confronted either with a
condition that the coal producing
and transportation companies are
unable to meet or a combine than
plans an unprecedented holdup.
The latter possibility appears ex-
tremely vague, but the fact Is ap-
parent that prices will soar clear
out of reach in this city IL a run"
on the fuel supply is inaugurated.
