Less Than in 1905.

Boston. Dec. 29.-The annual can
vass of the wool trade Of the United
States by the Boston Commercial
Bulletin to discover the amount Of
wool remaining unsold at the close of
the year, shows a stock this year of
94,302046 pounds Of domestic and
15.169,00O pounds Of foreign wool.
This is to be compared with a stock
OF 72,461,443 pounds Of domestic and
24,41400O pounds of foreign one year
ago, and hence shows an Increase for
this year of 21,940,6O3 pounds of do
mestic and a decrease in the stock Of
foreign wool OF 9,245,O0O pounds.
The shipments Of wool from Boston
to December gath, inclusive from De-
cember 27. 1905. according to the
same authority. were 227,575,576
pounds, against 235,S37,319 pounds at

LUCY ALLEN IS
HELD FOR TRIAL
Ceburn Thinks Evidence
Shows She, Not George,
Cut CarSaW

Justice Of the Peace Coburn made
the announcement this morning that
he had decided to hold Lucy Allen
over to the district court on the charge
Of murder in the first degree.
Lucy Allen is the Indian woman
who, it Is alleged, welded a knife on
some Indian friends on the night of
November 15, at her home in q cabin
on Lapwai creek during the progress
Of drunken bout, incidentally cutting
SO deep into the body OF It-Che- Lut-
Tat. better known as Henry Carsaw,
that he died a few days later despite
every effort made by Doctor ]. N. Alley
Of Lapwal to save his life.
The woman left her cabin soon after
the assault was made and the officials
found her near Peck a few days later
by deputising an Indian to make the
arrest.
Lucy Aliens preliminary examina-
tion was held on December s, when a
large number OF Indian witnesses were
present. The defense attempted to
show that Smith Ell George, another
Indian occupant Of the room at the
time Of the stabbing, did the cutting
Clay McNamee, attorney for the de-
fense, gave notice at the time Of the
preliminary examination that he would
move the court for bond If the de-
fendant were held, but the January
term of court will soon convene. so he
will probably not press his motion.
This will probably be the first case
for Samuel Needham, the county at
torney- elect, to try as murder cases
generally come first in the criminal
calender.

WORK SOON ON
ELECTRIC LINE
Colonel J. Spofford Says
Surveys Have Been
Completed

BOISE, Idaho. Dec. 29.-The Daily
Statesman prints the following state
ment as the result of an interview
with Colonel J. Spofford of lewiston:
Colonel Judson Spofford has arrived
from Lewiston and will be in the city
some days. Asked last evening about
the project in which he is interested
for the construction Of an electric
railway line between Lewiston and
Grangeville, he stated the engineers
had practically completed the work Of
permanently locating the line, and
much work had already been done on
the heavy parts of the grading.
1.-The proposed line, he said, would
have a branch reaching the town Of
Nez Perce, and the total length Of the
main line and the branch would be
1876 miles. The road would be laid
with S0-pound steel rails. 1t was i'm
possible to proceed with the grading
at this season, the colonel proceeded.
for the reason that the black gumbo
soil Of the prairie could not be handled
when 1t was wet; when q scraper was
filled 1t was necessary to use pick
and shovel to unload 1t.
Colonel Spofford added that they
would soon begin work on the power
plant. The site selected was on the
Salmon near Westlake, where the
river makes great bend. The plans
involved the running of a long tunnel,
it was added, and on that tunnel the
work would be stated. 1t would re-
quire two years to install the plant,
the railway line being completed be-
fore the power could be ready. Steam
would be used on the line for con-
struction purposes"

U. S. EXTENDS
HAND TO CONGO
Will Assist England In an
Effort to Suppress
Atrocities

Washington, Dec. 29.--It was stated
at the state department yesterday that
the government had pledged its sup
port in any steps taken by the
British government toward ameliora-
ting the condition OF affairs In the
Congo. This Is the first time that
any announcement had been made
and set at rest all questions as to the
stand the United States would take
in case 1t became necessary for one or
more OF the powers signatory to the
Berlin treaty to intervene. The
agitation In England for some action
by that government under its treaty
obligations looking to reforms in the
Congo has been as great, II not great
er, than in the United States, but
England has apparently been loath
to act while there was any prospect
that Belgium would annex the Congo
territory. The matter was again
before state department officials.
when DR.. Howard Guinness of Eng
land, author of the Religions beyond
the Missionary union" called upon
Secretary Root and urged independent
action by the United States. main
tanning that this country was morally
bound to act because 1t was the first
to recognize the flag of the Congo
Free State. 1t Is not believed, now
YER. that anything in that direction
will be done, certainly not until action
is taken by the senate on the Lodge
resolution. pledging the support Of
the senate to any steps taken by thi.
government toward ameliorating thu
conditions in that country.
Mr.. Guinness, however, sieft the de.
pertinent with the assurance that tai
| government would not permit itsel

Confesses, and Then
Reads Book

PORTLAND, Ore. Dec. "a spe-
cial dispatch to the Evening Telegram
from St Helens. says that Bert OLE
man, the thirteen year-old adopted
son Of Mrs. Sarah Ayres, has confessed
to the murder OF his mother, which
occurred last night on the Ayres'
ranch, near Warren, in Columbia
county. Oregon.
The boy stated that he killed his
mother because she punished him for
not faithfully performing some duties
assigned to him.

the scattered family live at Salem. and

Never Legally Adopted.
The Ayres had never legally adopted
him. The Ayres family came to the
farm near Warren from the Carrieo
valley, seven or eight miles north of
Houlon, Ore and had lived there just
about year.
Young Oleman's dreadful deed took
place last night. Mr.. Ayres was alb
sent in the hills and the youth had
been working around the place. Mrs.
Ayres upbraided him, he says. and
when she finally sent him upstairs he
was slow about retiring. Mrs Ayres
