JAP POACHERS CAPTURED.
Sealing Crews ON Forbidden Ground
and Will be Prosecuted.

Three japanese schooners with 65
men aboard were captured near the
Pribilof islands by the American pa
troll boats recently. The news came
Tuesday in a message from Attorney
General Bonaparte to Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Ray directing him to
proceed westward to take charge of
the prosecution, says the Seward,
Alaska, Gateway
The attorney-generars message
stated that the Japanese had been
taken to Unalaska and were to be
arraigned there. A message from
Deputy U. S. Marshal Lathrop at Vol
dez later stated that the Japanese
were taken to Unga. The Japs were
captured as seal poachers.
One Japanese schooner captured
near the Pribilof islands as a poacher
and taken to Unalaska by the revenue
cutters was released because the evil
dense against 1t was not strong.
This fact is learned from John z.
Thwaites, mail clerk of the Dora. who
states that the McCulloch and Nam
ming were at Unalaska when the Do
ra was there. The general story Of
the capture and detention Of the three
schooners was not learned by the
Dora and evidently was being kept Sc
cret by the revenue officers.

The latest news from Morrow
county are compiled from the Hepp-
ner Times and Gazette.
Cashier George Conser, OF the First
National bank, who recently went TO
sHot Lake for the benefit of his
health, is very sick. His condition
was such that for a few days his
many friends were alarmed. At last
reports Mr.. Conser was improving.
Newt MILESTONE returned the lat
ter part of the week from Grant
county where he has been the past
two weeks buying sheep While
away he bought $500, most of which
were lambs, the remainder wethers.
The sheep will be delivered this fall
after coming in from the summer
range.
Frank Parker, who was in town
Tuesday from Lexington, informed
the Times that he has started his
thresher and header together, thresh-
ing his crop as he cuts it. He has
900 acres of his own crop. which he
says is turning ont an average of IS
20 20 bushels per acre of first grade
wheat.
The Morrow Warehouse Milling
company has commenced the con-
struction of a large building near the
Touring mill to be used to store
wheat TO supply the mill. The build
ng is 4Oxso feet, !is being built sub
stantially and will make a valuable
addition to the mill property. The
capacity of the old storage building,
which is OF similar dimensions to the
new, was not sufficient for the re-
quirernents of the mill, hence the con-
struction of the new building.
S. A Thomas, editor of the Lex
| ington Wheatfield, certainly has all
of the other newspaper boys laid on
the shelf when It comes to work. He
is not troubled with scarcity of help.
Just now during the hot weather in
the way OF vacation, Editor Thomas
is loaling header boxes in the harvest
field at $3.50 per in the day time. At
| night he goes TO Lexington, gets out
no oil ptrin fr,l,t
plant, the creamery, and his leisure
time is occupied by the duties of
town marshal. Here is our hat,

VIII Secure Coal.
]. p. Huddleston is authority for
the statement that Heppner is in a
fair way to secure about 700 tons of
coal for a winter fuel supply. Roy
Gray. the local fuel dealer, has been
working for some time to secure
| quantity OF coal from the Wyoming
mines and has at last got the promise
of 700 tol.s from the operators of the
! mine, who promise to ship If cars can
| be secured. Mr.. Huddleston says the
cars can be had for that purpose on
short notice.
Unless something transpires to
| block these arrangements it seems
very probable that Heppner will Sc
| cure sufficient coal, with a few hun
dred cords of wood, to get through
the winter in good shape.

The trial was of great interest from the

When the case was reopened at Berlin
October y the court tried to effect d
settlement between Harden and Won
saying that he did not charge the plaintiff
with being d pervert, but that ne did
charge him with having AN abnormal
temperament, which is dangerous to the
country, from his proximity TO the hlgA-
est parsonage in the empire.
Continuing his testimony, Harden said
that Won Moltke's friends admitted that
Won MOltke and Ia Gutenberg often re-
scrred to the kaiser as ''liebchen' Oittle
darlng1. and that Won Moltke, once pick
ing up the handkerchief of a friend press

thatethere is no immediate prospect of

The rata of exchange is unfavorable. and
besides the Bank of France would be in
clined to resist Nevertheless the disposi-

would be accomplished by the purchase

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. October 29.-The
campaign here. which al yesterdays cleo
ton resulted in jefferson county going
200 at least for prohibition, was the
most spectacular in the history of the
state It is generally conceded that the
work of women and children was re
sponsible for the result.
The city of Birmingham gave a majori-
ty OF 32O against prohibition. but this was
as nothing when every village in the
county and every rural precinct went
overwhelmingly against liquor. curl
GUS feature is that places like Ensley and
Bessemer. where there are large iron
works and where hundreds of iron work
ers supposed to be against prohibition
are employed. went strongly against
whisky Nearly 12,oGO votes were cast.
\ spectacular feature of the election
was an all-day parade of hundreds of
women and children through the streets,
carving placards and banners and shout
| ing their desire for prohibition, singing
dry" to the tune of bringing in the
Sneaves." WAS sung throughout the day.
! Bread or Booze" was the plaCarded

PHILADELPHIA. October 29.-Rumors
that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
would lay off between 10000 and 300OJ
men were today denied by high officials of
the company The following statement
was given out at the company's offices:
There IS no truth in the statements that

the movement for the month the largest
in the history of the company. any ma
torial reduction in the forces would not be
practicable
