AN oFT-ToLD LOVE STORY
Murder and Suicide Is the Result at
Hoquiam, Wash.-Mrs, Todd Makes
Her Statement Public.

sHoquiam, Wash-After several
weeks of silence, Mrs. Todd has finally
decided to make public the statement
given the officials which led to the
arrest of Ralph w. Steele for the mur-
der of her husband, and the suicide of
Steele in jail. The sworn statement
is in part as follows:
November, 1906, during the county
election, Steele and two loggers work
ing for my husband came to our house
and rented rooms. Ralph Steele acted
then the same as any other man, but
after a while he made himself one of
the family.
Il was good to him, as / was always
good to any nice man that worked for
Frank, and tried to be a mother or sis
ter to them, as most of them were out
here alone. Mr.. Steele took another
meaning to my actions and as he knew
Mr.. Todd and myself did not live hap
PLY together, made love to me, and |
let him. We planned to live together
some time in the future, and he was
to go to Mexico about the first of Sep

Trade Is More Active.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review Of
trade says:
Confidence is returning, but conserv-
atism is still much in evidence, es-
pecially in manufacturing Mills and
factories are only operated to fill or
ders, no accumulation of stocks being
permitted pending more settled condi-
tons Some idle plants have already
resumed, however, and in many cases
there are ample contracts on hand,
but work is curtailed because. custom
ers request delay in delivery as funds
are not available for settlement. These
concerns expect to have machines in
full operation when the money market
becomes normal; several are prepar-
ing to resume after January l. Retail
trade is more active, sales of holiday
goods supplementing dealings in sta
ple-made merchandise and some west
ern cities report that wholesale houses
are receiving orders of usual size from
country merchants for spring delivery.
Output of finished steel products has
declined still further and more pig iron
furnaces are idle, but the sentiment is
not demoralized at leading centers,
and some idle plants will resume next
week. Prices remain comparatively
steady, although in many cases the
figures are wholly nominal, owing to
the absence of a new business.

Theaters Closed Sundays.

Judge Smith Mcpherson OF Red Oak,
Iowa, in the United States circuit
court, has handed down a decision dis
solving the Injunction recently granted
to local theatrical managers prohibit
ing county officials from closing the
theaters on Sundays. Judge Mc1her-
son asserts that he has not jurisdic-
ton. The decision is a far-reaching
one, in that it practically seals the
fate of all Sunday amusements in
Kansas City.

Hill Comment on New York.

New York, in the opinion of James
j. Hill, head of the Great Northern
Railway company, has reached the
climax of her supremacy. In an inter
view Saturday the railroad builder of
the northwest expressed this view, his
reason being that this city can not
hope to maintain it's commercial con-
troll when its chief claim is, as he
stated it, that it is the dearest place
in which to do business.

The
General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant
and efficient liquid laxative remedy of
known value; laxative which physi-

truly beneficial in effect, acceptable
to the system and gentle, yet prompt,
in action.
In supplying that demand with its
excellent combination of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna., the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
of the laxative for it's remarkable
successf
