Regardless of DaTrow's Enforced
Absence.
Spokane, Oct. 1.-THE Steve Ad-
ans case was taken up in the district
court at Rathdrum this morning and
Attorney c. L. Heitman, acting on be-
half of the. defendant, asked to have
the case carried over TO the next term
owing to the fact that Clarence Dar-
row, the leading attorney in the case,
is also in the Pettibone case, which
is set for October 2S in Boise, Idaho.
The state was represented by L. P.
Knight of Wallace, who vigorously
opposed the motion for delay, After
much argument Judge Woods decid-

AS to whether or not an appeal to
the supreme court will be taken In
behalf Of Horseman seems matter
of doubt. After the sentence had
been imposed this afternoon Colonel
Raley and Judge Fee intimated that
an appeal would be taken. But such
step will not be taken according 70
Judge Fee, unless a certificate of
probable cause can be secured for
Horseman. II such a writ can be
secured he can remain here while
his case is pending in the supreme

have to go to the penitentiary mean

San Francisco, Oct. 1.-THE fate
of the Union Iron works in this city
hangs in the balance, depending on
a visit OF Charles NJ. Schwab within
the next three days.
Schwab will decide within that time
whether he will close the great coast
plant or enlarge it. Schwab arrived
last night from the east.
Schwab says that he is bitterly dis
appointed in the state of Nevada. He
is quoted as follows: 81 have put
more money in that state than any
other one man, but I'm greatly dis
appointed. Never yet have 1 found
a man who has told the truth about
that state. Confidence in the east
in Nevada has evaporated."

was arrested yesterday upon inform
alton contained in the circulars sent

Is we'll educated intended to teach
school and secured a position in one
of the district schools of the county.
However he apparently found other
fields more alluring. He worked for
a time in the eXcavating crew en-
ployed in making the improvements
on the Odd Fellows building at the
corner of Main and Alta streets. He
then secured the position of night
clerk at the Hotel Pendleton and
worked there until he became book
keeper for the meat company.
At the time Brown left the city a
week ago Manager r. Harras was at
Pasco and Brown had been left In
charge of the business. He is said
to have gotten drunk and while in
that condition may have squandered
much of the money he is accused of
having stolen.
On the evening he left the city he
was seen at the depot by a friend
and said to him that he was going
"up the line" and intended to start
a billiard and pool business some
place.
Arrested in Idaho.
Brown was arrested at Sand Point,

Oregon library extension and the
development of free public Libraries
in the cities of the state are now
receiving more attention than ever
before and Pendleton is in line to re-
ceive some excellent help from the
Oregon library commission, il she
decides to create a free public IL
brary for her new city hall.
Mrs. Ida A. Kidder, assistant to
Secretary Cordelia Marvin of the
state library commission, is in the
city today on her way from Baker
and Union to Weston. At Weston
she will complete the listing and cat
aloguing of the books of the Weston
Normal school library and while here
today looked over the library situa-
ton in this city.
Mrs. Kidder was surprised to find
such an admirable foundation for a
first class public library, in the 1000
volumes of the Commercial associa-
tion library and hopes to see spacious
quarters for a free library provided
in the city hall which it is hoped will
be built in the near future.
Library Spirit Grows.
She cited Baker city as an example
of the excellent growth of the library
spirit of the state. Baker has a IL
brary of but 5000 volumes, but she
has provided elegant quarters for it
in her new city hall, where the peo-
pie feel an interest and take a pleas
ure in patronizing it.
The Baker city library now has an
average daily circulation of rs vol
umes and this year the city voted
$4,000 for maintenance, while last
year but $1,000 was voted.
A trained librarian is in charge
and about 600 books per year are
added. The schools cooperate with
the city and students of the schools
use the library every day and night
i'll pursuance of theiy studies. A
cosy, secluded, quiet and comfortable
library room is provided and it is
well filled with people most of the
time, and is real source of enjoy
ment and profit to Baker.
Mrs. Kidder urges Pendleton to de-
velop her excellent library and to take
advantage of the free information and
free aid provided by the state IL
brary association. This is one of the
most faborable locations in the state
for large, free library and she says
u will be mistake to build a city
hall without providing room for the
library.
State Debating Libraries.
A new departure which is proving
to be highly beneficial and attractive
in western Oregon is the state de-
batting library which has just been
started. The plan is to organize de-
batting teams in the various schools.
and after choosing subjects TO debate
upon, to use data and statistics pre-
pared especially by the library COM
mission in preparing for the debates.
practically all of the schools of west
ern Oregon are taking advantage OF
mis- excellent plan and finally the
best deoaters in the state will be Sc
ected and a state contest will he
held.
Municipal libraries in which copies
II all new or advanced city charters
nay be found and in which statistics
IN municipal questions such as fire
insurance, sewerage, street improve
nents, water systems and other prac-
lcal subjects will be collected for the
lse of Oregon cities, are also being
tarted and already there is a brisk
iemand for the information collected.
Mrs kidder will leave for Weston
his evening.

Four hundred dollars became for
feited to the county this morning
through the failure Of Hensley and
Dewey. charged with larceny of a
trunk, to appear for trial at the ap-
pointed time. The two men were
accused of having appropriated to
their own use a trunk that was the
property Of another guest at the Alta
House last summer. 1t was valued
at SIS. and after charges had been
made against the two men they were
released on cash bail to the above
amount.
Bail Is Ordered Forfeited.
When the Hensley and Dewey case
was called this morning Judge Fee
stated that he had been consulted by
the two men, though without COM
pensatlon to himself, but that he
could not say whether his clients
would appear or not. At his last in
formation they were near Walla
Walla. The cash bail was thereupon
ordered forfeited by Judge Bean.
State Would Have Been Handicapped
Amusement was caused among the
attorneys by the above case, for the
state was likewise handicapped.
though the fact did not become Of
ficially known. At the time set for
trial, the district attorney was shy in
the matter of the prosecuting witness,
the erstwhile owner of the trouble
some trunk, and had the case gone
to trial the defense would appar-
emily have had walk-over. But as
this condition of affairs was SEEM
ingly not known to Messrs Hensley
and Dewey justice was able to win
out by default and the county has
their $400.
Gardner Case Continued.
In the case against Gardner, ac-
cused OF stealing a watch and other
valuable things from one Williams.
the district attorney announced this
morning that he was awaiting for
witness from Spokane. He was eX-
pected this afternoon and the case
was continued. Gardner is being
represented by Attorney Roland oil
yer.
Through the fact that none of the
cases were ready for trial an ad-
iournment was taken about $3.50 and
