Years.
Rx Associated Press.

Portland, Ore, July 31.-The Ore
gonian says today:
Arrested on the charge of embeZ-
zling $4,000 in Chicago eight years
ago, r. j. Maloney, a prosperous Seat
tie real estate broker who for the past
few weeks has been an inmate of a
private sanitarium in this city, is fac
ing the unpleasant prospect of term
In jail or confinement in an insane
asylum. On the report of committee
of physicians, appointed by Judge
Weber to examine into Maloney's men,
tai condition depends the laws course
in the matter.
Step by step since he disappeared
from Chicago in 1898, detectives have
been following Maloney's trail From
Illinois to Texas. from Texas to Cali
fornia, and from California to the
state of Washington logged his foot
steps until they found him at Seattle
about four months ago. Then after
they had communicated with the r
clients, the losers by Ma,oney's al
legged populations and the trap was
about to be sprung, their plans were
again foiled by the action of Maloney's
relatives and friends in removing him
to this city on the ground that his
mind had become affected by business
worries.
The case came to an end here yes
terday when detectives of the Port
land police department placed Ma
loney under arrest at a san tarium~oa
a fugitive warrant sworn out byJ. w.
Greer, a Chicago lawyer, who had
come to Portland to take up the case
1t Is asserted that for some time
prior to 1898 Maloney had been con-
Quoting an investment business in
Chicago and that his alleged pecula-
lions for the most part were from wo-
men, ignorant Of business methods,
including widows, who were induced
to entrust their money to him.

FLAGLER TO MOVE

PLAN TO TRANSFER IMMENSE
ATLANTIC BEACH HOTEL
no KEY WEST.

ValdoSta, Ca, July 31.-Flagler's
scheme of building his road, the Flor.
ida East Coast, across a string OF
keys to Key West Is not the only
monster undertaking that he has
planned. The other has to do with
one of his great hotels, the Cont;nen
structure, four stories high, with YER
andas and promenades. nearly a half
a mile long, and said to contain 5000
rocking chairs, alone, Is to be moved
from Atlantic Beach to Key West on
bsrges.
II is said -1at the big rotel has
never been paying proposition end
Mr.. Flagler has decided that he will
move it to some point where profits
nay be more certain. The plan is to
cut the hotel half in two and place
each half upon barges constructed for
the purpose. Then these are to be
towed to Key West, about as the dry
dock Dewey was towed across to Ma
Mia. It is said that several large
hotels and boarding houses are on
barges down below Miami and the
men who are at work on the East
Coast extension board at them. The
idea of moving the Contental to Key
West without tearing the building to
pieces grew out Of this, it is said.
A gentleman who Is close to Mr..
Flagler and who may be said to be
on the inside on the East Coasts
plans said to-day that when the Cont
mental closes this season, which will
be very soon, the big hotel will not
open again until its doors are opened
to tourists who alight at Key West on
their way to Cuba.

Washington, July 31.-Secretary
Wilson today discussed at length the
meat inspection law. He said it is
not desire to evade the law which
causes certain firms to fail to arrange

meat enters in whole or in part. He

N THE FOURTH DISTRICT.

The Democrats Of the Fourth con-
gressional district have adopted a new
plan. Convinced Of the futility of try
ing to defeat Congressman Miller along
strict party lines, they have thrown
party lines to the winds and nominated
a Republican. Now they invite all
Republicans who do not believe in Mr..
AIiler's stand-pat tariff ideas to help
elect to congress J. w. Moore Of Mar
ion, the Independent Republican named
by them.
The Democrats have undoubtedly at
tackled Congressman Miller in his most
vulnerable point. Mr.. Miller came to
Kansas few weeks ago and made a
stand-pat tariff speech in the Republi-
can state convention. The Republicans
of Kansas are not stand-patters. They
may believe in a protective tariff for
infant industries, but they do not be
lieve in a protective tariff for trusts
They do not believe IN keeping a tariff
on steel, for instance, that enables the
steel trust to Pile up millions at the
expense OF American consumers while
# sells It's product in Europe much
cheaper than it does in America. The
Kansas farmer believes in taking the
tariff of of lumber and everything
else controlled by trusts. Therefore Mr.
Miller's ideas are not representative
of the people Of Kansas.
But Mr.. Miller has strongs hold on
the Republican organization In the
Fourth district. He cannot be pried
loose from the nomination, and his ma
Jority of about $500 IN 1904 shows that
it is futile to try to defeat him in
partisan contest.
Whether he can be beaten bv an in
dependent Republican on the tariff re-
form issue remains TO be seen. Party
claims are strong on most men when 1t
