is FOR TARIFF REVISION.
Washburn Sees Hope Of Republicans
In Prompt Tariff Changes.

LONDON, June 3O-Former United
States Senator w. D. Washburn of
Minneapolis, who is due to reach New
York on the Minnehaha this week.
believes that unless the republican
party speedily declares for tariff re-
national election. Mr.. Washburn re-
CARDS Bryan so formidable that Mr..
Roosevelt will have to be re-nominat-
ed.
The former senator is convinced that
Bryan will give Roosevelt an extremely
close race, even should the republicans
show themselves willing to reduce GER
tain tariff schedules. He holds that
the closeness of many republicans to
the meat and other trusts has seriously
damaged the interests of the party.
The quarrels between the president and
the republican leaders of the house and
senate, he says, may contribute to re-
publican disaster.
Mr.. Washburn is persuaded that the
republicans are in serious danger of
losing touch with the people, and de-
servedly passing from the stage of ac-
ton. He declares that the party can
save itself only by the most energetic
measures and a reorganization on
most progressive lines. From inter-
Gently in London, your correspondent
is led to believe that Mr.. Washburn's
views are those of practically all OBJ
servers who see the situation from
this distance.

MAKES PRIZE BALLAST,
Illinois Central Finds Dustless Stone
and Sand.

CHICAGO, June 3O.-The manage
ment of the Illinois Central road has
discovered a dustless ballast in the
bed of the Mississippi river. Recently
the company has been pumping the
gravel from the river bed at Men,
phis and using it to ballast the road.
1t appears that through the wash
ing of ages all but 25 per cent of the
dust that sticks to gravel had been
cleaned off, with the result that there
is nothing left to fly in the air when
a train moves over the track.
Gravel that is taken from a regular
gravelpit has the soil of ages at
taching to it, and at times makes dis
agreeable riding on account of the
dust. The cost Of securing the gravel
from the Mississippi is small and the
company purposes using it all the way
from Memphis to New Orleans

Sensational Developments in the A.

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa, June 3D.
Sensational developments have come
to light in the case of the Farmers
State bank at Clearfield, which was
recently closed by the bank examiner
The former cashier, George A. Ferrln

work has been discovered. A farmer
named John Hart borrowed $4,000 OF

counted for the proceeds. A draft
sent from Tingley to Ferrin after the

school money, but it is secured. his
wife and three children will be destl-

The representatives of the railroad
companies late yesterday afternoon
voluntarily consented 20 give to Wal

given out in the evening after the rail-
road men and the Commercial club
transportation committee, consisting
of Harry B. Strong, Fred F1afke, Ben
Holt and Fred w Kaser, had been in
conference for several hours.
Advised by Commission.
During the day the commission
members and the railroad people were
in consultation and much time was
put in going over the proposition OF
fixing the distance rates ordered by
the commission. While no definite ac-
ton was taken, it was agreed that
the commission and railroad repre-
sentatives would meet in Portland Ju-
ly when the figures on the new tar
if will be compiled. 1t is said that
during the conference the commission
put it straight up to the railroad men
that they could give Walla Walla the

so.

SOVEREIGN IN ASYLUM.
State of Luxembourg Without Ruler
Succession Is In Doubt.

BRUSSELS, June 30.-William III.
grand duke of Luxenburg, has been
interned in the asylum of st. Blasius,
Bavaria. He is totally paralyZed so
that his hand has to be guided to sign
official documents. This event is full
of consequences for the future Of the
duchy. The duke has six daughters,
but no son. He succeeded to the throne
last November.
The little sovereign state of Luxem-
burg, which has only 1000 square
miles of territory and 100000 inhabi-
tants, was one of the bones of con-
tention between France and Germany,
which caused the Franco-German war.
1t had been declared neutral territory
by the treaty of London in 1867. Its
government is a constitutional mon
archy heredity in the male line of the
house of Nassau.
On the extinction of the male line of
the reigning dynasty the crown
should pass to the Otto branch of the
Nassau house, but the only represent
ative of this at present is Queen Will

that the European powers will pc

The low bid of $1.75 per square yard
submitted by the Warren Construction
company for paving several new i'm
movement districts with asphalt, can
be traced directly to the fight that
Robert H. Johnson, Eugene Tausick
and other property owners put
I'D against the paving COM
nanies several. months ago to
secure wide and open competi-
ton on all street improvements, and
also to the stand taken by Mayor Hunt
when he vetoed the ordinance giving
the Warren Construction company a
monopoly on all paving contracts In
Walla Walla.
The bid of the Warren company, IL
accepted, means that saving OF ~
cents a yeard will be affected to prop
ertv owners on several thousand yards
of paving in Rose, Colville, Third, East
Main and other streets included in the
new ristrict. amounting to thousands
of dollars and which will also reeoit
in a material saving to property own
ers in other improvement districts that
will undoubtedly be paved within the

at the Hotel Dacres. The members of
the committee responded and for three
hours the situation was Thoroughly
discussed. Finally it was announced by
the railroad men they would grant the
request made by the Walla Walla peo-
pie and that as soon as the distance
rates could be worked out the special
tariffs would be put into operation
These figures will be worked out by
the railroads within the next ten
days and will then be submitted to the
commission and the Walla Walla COM
mittee. The Walla Walla committee
made a strong plea for the same rates
now in force at Spokane, but the rail-
road men were not willing to make the
reduction that large. 1t was finally
agreed that the new rates would be
lowered so as not to be more than
12b per cent higher than the Spokane
iobbing rates. 1t is generally be-
lieved that the rates will be about lO
per cent higher than Spokane rates,
when finally fixed.
At present the Spokane rates are
