GOULD WILL SPEND
 HUNDRED MILLION
Iron Mountain to Be Double. Between Little Rock and Memphi, To ExpenG Ten Million T
 Year.

According to dispatches from Chi cago the sum of Sl0o,0o00O0 k f, 10 expended ill improving the Missouri Pacific and laoa Mountain system in the course of the next ten years, says the Arkansas Gazette.
 The dispatches are to the effect tbaf the sum of $1o,0oo, ,000 will he eypcnd- ed each year for ten years. This mon. ey is to be spent principally in double tracking and i'll eliminating curves. No money will be spent in extending the system, and 1t is thought that T large part will be used on the Iron Mountain in Arkansas. Stuyvesant Fish, who recently compla.ed a toHr ot Inspection of the Mi ari Pacific i system, and who, during lfs friD yis- ited Little Rock several times. spoke i'll the highest terms 0t the prospects i'll Arkansas, ami consequently it ,s thought tbat q considerable amount Of that sum will be expended on the Gould lines in this state.
 Among the improvements which :. is expected will be made ill Arkansas is the double tracking of the Iron Mountain between this city and Nem- phis and Little Rock and TeXarkana. StHyvesant Fish, when here. stated that this would uoJ be done Tor some time, but it is still lie opinion of both railroad men and the rnhIie iu gel eral that such improvements are plan ned. It is known that it is the inteH- ton of the company to double track between this city and Bald Knob, .9s statements to that effect were given out several weeks ago by General Superintendent DeBarhardi.
 While in Chicago Nr. Fish is said to have complimented the territory through which the Missouri Pacific passes, in the highest terms.

FELL THROUGH
THE sKYL|GHT
CAME DOWN ON CONCRETE
PAVING 35 FEET BELOW
Was Badly Cut by Glass, and Was
Much Bruised, But May Not be
Dangerously Injured-Mistook the
Flimsy Skylight for a Safe Place
and Stepped Upon 1t to Recover a
Button.

Charles Miller, news agent on the
train between this place and Spo-
kane, was badly cut and otherwise
injured this forenoon by falling
through a skylight in the rear of the
Hotel st. George. The place through
which he fell was the skylight over
the court which separates the St.
George kitchen from the dining
room. He dropped a distance of
about S5 feet and struck on the con-
crete walk beneath. He was badly
cut about the head and body through
contact with the glass, and was also
bruised by his fall, However, he may
have escaped serious injury.
Miller was rooming at the hotel
and says that last night he dropped
a brass button upon the skylight. On
arising this forenoon he started to
walk out on the glass to recover the
button, and says he thought the sky
light wes perfectly safe. A moment
later he plunged through to the
floor beneath and astonished the
crew of Japs at work in the st.
George kitchen.
Miller is young man, and says his
home is in New York. Immediately
after his injury DR.. C. j. Smith was
called to attend him and the injured
man was removed to the hospital.

TIME LIMIT ON GRAND ,SURY.
Prosecution Claims That il May Exist
for % Year.

san Francisco, June 2S.-Before
Judge Lawlor last evening, the pros
ecution made its reply to the argu-
ments of tlse defense In support of
the motion to set aside the bribery
indictments against Vice President
Louis Glass rof the Pacific Statek Tel
ephone company, on the ground that
the Oliver grand jury which return
ed them is and since last February
has been existing illegally and that
hence these indictments are invalid.
The argument for the defense by At
torneys Delmas and Coogan ycs1er-
day was in effect that under the law
OF California the present grand jury.
which. was drawn last October, died
when the new grand jury list for 19UI
was certified and returned to the
county clerk I'm February of this
wear. Therefore all the indictments
returned by the oliver grand Jury
are void.
The argument IN response Tor the
prosecution was made by ID. w. COBB,
the law partner OF Assistant District
Attorney Heney. Mr.. Cobb held the
meaning N the law to be this:
That the selection and return or
the new grand jury list not operate as
n termination of the existing grand
Jury. but merely confers upon the
court legal opportunity to draw new
grand jury upon the discharge by
the court OF the existing body at any
time within a year after the empan-
elment OF the latter and that nothing
except an order of discharge by the
court can end the life of a grand
jury within the 1. months for which
It was impaneled.

tory between Huntington and Port
land was given at s55,134, and from
Pendleton alone at $4,000.
Also the railroad people contended
that that the business throughout
this section had been at q standstill
during the past few years. However,
this assertion was offset when at the
instance OF Commissioner Aitchison
the company was required to produce
its sworn statement made to the tax
commission, of which Mr.. Aitchison
was a member. The sworn statement
showed a very substantial increase in
the company's business.
Mr.. Phelps declares that the rail-
road company did not make as strong
a showing in opposition to the new
train as he had expected.
At the request of the commission
the railroad company is now prepar-
ing statistics to show the cost of
passenger service considered from an
interstate standpoint When these
figures are received, the commission
will arrive at its decision. and the
case will probably be disposed Of
early next week.

One Thousand Mill Employees come
to Eastern Oregon.
Al least 100 men who will be fore
ed into idleness through the closing
down OF Portland sawmills during
the month OF July, will come into
Umatiila and Walla Walla counties
in search OF work through harvest.
This morning about so Of the ad-
vance guard OF this horde Of idle men
passed through the city to Walla
Walla and others will arrive here on
every train.
Owing to the early season In this
and walla Walla counties the idle
men will come here first In hopes Of
working in hay harvest until the
grain harvest opens. They are mostly
well dressed, good looking working
men and there should be no dearth of
labor In this county during harvest
Farmers had feared that labor
would be scarce during harvest this
year owing to the enormous number
OF men used In railroad construction
on the coast, but there is every prob
ability now that there will be no
scarcity. Very few Of the mill en-
ployes will go to the railroad caps,
as they can earn more money In the
harvest fields.

Testimony Late Yesterday.

Boise, June 27.-Ed Boyce again
took the stand and went fully into
the history of the federation.
He said his wife had an interest
in the rich Hercules mine, one-six-
teenth of which Orchard once owned.
He began as a miner in March,
1885, in the Coeur d'Alene, where
he worked two years.
He was disseminated against be-
cause he belonged to the union, and
was arrested and held in the Boise
Jail six months in 1893. Fourteen
members Of the union. he said, were
sent to Jail for violating an injunc-
ton by the federal court restraining
them from trespassing on mining
property. Hawley carried the mat
ter to the supreme court and got all
out. He said the Western Federation
had its inception in the Boise jail.
Hawley advised them to federate. as
the owners had organized in Helena
in 1890.

PHELPS BELIEVES NECESSITY FOR
ANOTHER TRAIN WAS SHOWN

Hopeful of victory In the fight that
Pendleton is making for an extra
train and better passenger service be-
tween this city and Portland, District
Attorney G. W. Phelps returned home
this morning. While the railroad
commission has not yet passed upon
the matter nor intimated their pur-
pose, Mr.. Phelps believes that the
facts presented by the two sides in
the controversy show that an addi-
tional train is necessary for the ac-
commodation Of the people.
As was expected, the railroad peo-
pie contended that to place another
train upon the run between Pendle-
ton and Portland would be unprofit-
able. In support of this contention
the company presented statistics CIV
ing the costs Of their passenger busi-
ness between Huntington and Port
land. According to their figures the
cost Of running passenger train is
$1.67 per mile. This estimate in
cludes the cost Of equipment and sta
ton expenses. The monthly passen-
ger revenue derived from the terri

NEW YoRK's BONDING LIMIT.

New York, June 28.--New York
ty today reached the limit OF its
N rowing capacity, when Controller
-.z offered for sale per cent city
bonds TO theamount OF $29,000,o00.
The money is to be used for i'm
provcSnents of various kinds. and for
the first time In some years the bonds
OF New York city will bear interest
coupons, for which variety Of security
thcre has been considerable demand
since the last bond sale, which was
unsuccessful.
Today's offering is watched with
deep interest in investment circles.
as the manner in which II Is taken
up will furnish an accurate indica-
tion Of the true condition Of the bond
market. as bankers recognize the fact
that the first general demand from
investors must come rather in bonds
than in stocks. Some fear Is express
ed that this offering. coming Just be-
fore the LIST OF July. will affect the
money market temporarily, but most
bankers agree that the time was well
selected. in that the city offerings
will get the full benefit Of the July
disbursements and whatever purchas-
ing power may result therefrom
There Is no doubt among the bankers
that the bonds will be taken, but the
price at which they will sell Is the
chief point OF interest.
The bonds carry per cent interest
and cannot be sold under par. but
ns they are exempt from personal
taxes they are generally considered a
desirable investment for estates. 1t
isthought that some Of the holders Of
United States bonds which are to be
retired before July 10 Will reinvest
their money in these securities.
