ARRESTED CHARGED
WITH THE DA[LES MURDER

Ed Gosson, charged with the brutal
murder of Ernest Bonomi near The
Dalles Monday morning, was arrested
here this afternoon and to Sheriff
Taylor belongs the credit for one of
the best captures made in eastern
oregon for many months. He ar
rested Gosson upon the street here
this afternoon about $3.50 after hav-
ing watched vigilantly for him for
several days.
Gosson was a former neighbor Of
the murdered Italian gardener and
Immediately after his arrest Mrs.
Bonomi broke down and admitted
that she and Gosson together had
planned the murder of her husband
and that the latter had carried out
the diabolical deed. He went to the
Bonomi home Sunday night and kill
ed the sleeping husband by firing a
load of buckshot pointblank at his
head. According to the story of the
women he then left saying she would
hear from him later, and that he
would come here to work in the har-
vest fields.

RAILROAD MEN AND NORTH
CAROLINA OFFICIALS MEET
Governor and State Corporation
Board Have $4,000 of State Money
to Use I'm Defraying the Expenses
of an Inquiry-North Calorina
Claims Discrimination I'm Favor of
Virginia Points-Gov. Glenn States
the Grounds.

Raleigh, n. c.. Aug. "a meeting
of representatives of the freight traf-
fic departments of leading North
Carolina railways with Governor
Glenn and the state corporation COM
nilsson was held today, for the pur-
pose of discussing charges of freight
rate Determinations against various
shipping points.
An appropriation Of $4,000 was pro-
vided by the last legislature to probe
this matter and defray the expenses
of an Investigation. Governor Glenn
hopes to effect a settlement without
litigation and has appealed to the
roads to cooperate with him in ami
cably discussing the subject.
In regard to the alleged discrimina-
ton which s being considered today
Governor Glenn has said:
"All our shippers and merchants
desire is that they shall be treated in
the same way that Virginia shippers
are treated and should have on or
more distributing points in North
Carolina to which and through which
we can get the same rates now given
Lynchburg, Richmond and Norfolk.
The railroads now put us at great
disadvantage In competing with mer-
chants of other states and are, to
say the least Of It, unjust to our peo-
pie.
Goods are shipped to Lynchburg
through Winston, Greensboro and
Durham for less than they can be
shipped to these points; in fact, our
shippers can have their goods ship
ped to Lynchburg and then pay the
local rate back to their place cheap
err than they can have them shipped
direct. This, upon its face, is un-
fair"

Boy Shot at Hilgard.

Hilgard, Aug. s.-Walter Young,
the 17-year-old son Of Lee Young Of
Grande Ronde river, was accidentally
shot through the foot by a 22-caliber
rifle last evening. He was taken to
La Grande, where the foot was dress
ed and it is not thought the accident
will necessitate an amputation, al
though the foot is badly shattered.
The gun was accidentally discharged
by 7-year-old brother, who was
handling the gun.

Apparently Gosson did not believe
he was suspected of the crime and
doubtless thought the secret of the
murder had been kept by his woman
accomplice. When arrested he ad-
mitted his identity, but claimed to
be in ignorance of everything pertain
ing to the murder. At the time he
was not informed by Sheriff Taylor
of the charge against him, which is
that Of murder in the first degree.
Gosson is a man of about 25 years
and is smooth shaven, light COM
plexioned and of medium size.
Several days ago Deputy Sheriff
Wood of Wasco county, was here
looking for Gosson, and since that
time the sheriff and all the peace
officers of the city have watched
night and day for a man answering
the description. A reward of $500
was offered for his arrest, and by his
watchful eye the sheriff will now fall
heir to that sum as we'll as to the
gratitude Of The Dalles authorities,
who have been making earnest ef-
forts to locate Gosson.

AS a result of the strike order from
the Boilermakers' union on the entire
Hartman system, seven boilermakers
employed in the La Grande shops Of
the o. r. & N, walked out at 8
o'clock last evening and have not re-
turned to work.
The strike on the Hartman system
was caused by the discharge of three
union boilermakers from the Los
Angeles shops, the company refusing
to reinstate them after repeated con-
ferences with the union officials.
Consequently secret orders were
sent out to every union boilermaker
on the entire Hartman system to
quit work at 8 o'clock August s. The
order was obeyed everywhere so far
as is known.
The men who walked out at La
Grande were John Whitby, Fred
Synhorst, ID. c. Hennessy, Fred Bic
yer, r. Walker and c. P. Ellsworth.
They are all experienced men and
have been employed In the La Grande
shops for a number Of years. Their
services are badly needed now with
the large number Of engines located
at La Grande and 1t is impossible to
fill their places. 1t is hoped that
settlement of the strike will be ef-
fected soon.
AS boilermaking is special
branch of railroad mechanics, few
regular machinists can do the work,
and as the machinists are also strong
ly organized, they would not do the
work of the striking union men, so
the situation all over the Hartman
system is serious.

prospect of finding the body of Wes-
ley ]. Smith of that city through the
confession of Steve Adams.
The associated press dispatch
which reached here yesterday regard
ing the discovery of ]. w. Barney's
remains near Telluride has special
significance to the friends of Wesley

9, 1903, and it is believed by the
same agents or association responsible
for the death Of Barney.
Several months ago, during the
Haywood trial in Boise, Mrs. Smith,
who at that time was a resident Of
this state, made the statement that
she believed her husband was the
victim of the Western Federation Of
Miners, and according 20 the state
ment of her friends in Walla Walla,
1t is believed that Smiths murder
was not unlike that of Barney.
Mrs. Smith acknowledges that her
husband had incurred the enmity Of
the federation. and also that she
feared the organization. She is now
in Idaho.

Mrs. Smith for several years, said
last evening that he would forward
to her the newspaper account of Bar

Day Force Ont in Chicago.
Chicago, Aug. 9.-Nearly all the
day force of the Western Union op-
orators struck this morning in synnpa-
thy with the Los Angeles operators.
Fifteen operators now comprise the
Western Unions entire working force
In Chicago. Sub-stations all over Chi
cago and in the suburbs are closed
and the operators are being brought
to the main offices.
Responding to a hurry call from
company officials who declare they
had discovered a plot to blow up
switchboards, so policemen were sent
TO the main office in the Western
Union building, which is now a min
iature fortress. Policemen are on
short beats in the basement where
the batteries are located.
General Strike Expected.
I'VE expect a general strike" said
Superintendent Cook today. "Our op-
orators were offered the alternative
today of handling the business COM
iaS from Los Angeles, and most of
them struck. We Immediately closed
the branch offices and brought in op-
orators from the suburban towns. We
are not seriously embarrassed. and
have enough chief operators and su-
perintendents to handle the business"
Five old operators remained at
their keys all night. Members of the
order of Railway Telegraphers are
pulling out Western Union plugs as
fast as they hear of the strike.

The farmers Of Umatilla county are
not the only ones who have been in
convenienced by the rain and by the
general scarcity Of labor this sum-
mer. This forenoon the o. r. & N.
tracklaying crew at work on the
Umatilla Central was forced to re-.
main idle, and the men passed their
time lounging about the bunk tents.
At present there is now a crew Of
40 or more men at work upon the.
Pilot Rock branch and less difficulty
is being had in securing men. A few
weeks ago it was almost impossible
to secure laborers. However, the
work is being relayed through the
difficulty of getting rails. The rails
are being shipped to the branch line
from the Washington division of the
r. r. G. NJ, and according to H. A.
Brandon, engineer in charge Of the
construction work throughout the in
land empire, men cannot be gotten
to load the cars over in Washington.
This morning Mr.. Brandon made a
brief visit to the Birch creek camp
for the purpose of settling some en-
tanglements there.
Birch Creek Bridge Completed.
The big steel bridge across the
Umatilla at the mouth of Birch creek
is now completed and a crew of
painters is now at the camp for the
purpose of painting the structure.
A temporary spur connects the
branch line with the o. r. & n. main
line, and the track upon the Pilot
Rock road has been laid for a dis
tance of mile and quarter. It
will be rushed to completion by Mr..
Brandon as fas as circumstances will
allow.
The tracklaying crew is under the
charge of Foreman Casperson, while
the commissary and camps at Birch
creek are under the management Of
George Carey, formerly in the dining
