was largely Influenced by the secre-
tary of state. who firmly adheres to
the argument, repeatedly submitted
to the Palma administration that un-
der the terms of the Plat amendment
Cuba is bound to take this precau-
ton against unsanitary conditions in
her chief city.
Secretary Taft also decided the
other three cases brought to his at
tention by Governor Magoon. and in
each instance the decision OF the sec
rotary was approved by the presi-
dent. In line with the decision on
the McGibney & Rokeby contract is
| that on the Reilly contract. which
provides for the construction of a
sewer and water system in the city
of Cienfugos, the second largest city
In Cuba. The illegal features OF the
contract are to be eliminated. The
contractors have consented to the
necessary modification and the work
will now proceed uninterruptedly.
The most difficult case submitted
to Secretary Taft was that of the
Mariana Telephone company. which
had acquired a concession in Mari
ano, suburb of Havana. and had
sought under a technicality of the
Cuba law to include in its territory
the city of Havana. The Cuban
courts had twice decided against the
claims of the company, but it asked
some relief in the form of a national
telephone law. Secretary Taft de-
cided that the company had no right
to construct its lines in Havana, but
further ruled that an open COMPETE
ton should be conducted at which
all should enjoy an equal opportunity
to bid for concession to operate
system in Havana
The fourth case submitted to the
secretary. the 5O-year concession
granted to Seovel & Co. to construct
and operate a pier in the harbor OF
Havana, was quickly disposed of
The concession is to be cancelled and
the company compensated for the
work it has already done.

That congress should authorize the

not more than $3.50 an acre was the
subject of joint resolution reported
to the senate from the committee on

The fact that the department OF

OF Oregon was brought out when
Senator Fulton OF the committee on

The Occur d'Alene & Spokane

be taken by them to the end that
their car barns could be connected
with the sewer. The committee was
asked to look into this matter the
other evening and reported that the
car barns we're outside the city lin

might be connected with a sewer an
ordinance to that effect must be
passed. The committee on ordi-
nances was directed to draw an ordi-
nance covering the matter and to
present to the council at a special
meeting on Friday evening.
An adjournment was then taken
until Friday evening.

believe the resolution was necessary,
but the attorney general wanted Il
and he thought II should be passed.
Senator Nelson said the supreme
court had decided that the forfeiture
of such grants could be enforced
either in the courts or BY congress.
Senator Hepburn said the same
conditions referred 10 in the renolu-
ton exist in all land grant states, al
though only Oregon IL referred 10 IN
the resolution. For 40 years the rail-
roads, he said. had refused Ia comply
with the terms OF these granta. The
settler could not proceed against the
railroads to force them 10 comply
with the terms OF their grants TO the
land because the proceeding could
only be brought by the government
which gave the grant.

HOLDUP MEN ON TRIAL

A jury was empanneled today in
the case of the state OF Idaho VS..
E. A. Yarbrough and o. NJ. osgood,
who are charged with robbery. and
the case is now on trial in the dis
trict court at RathdTum.
The robbery was perpetrated about
three months ago in this city upon
man by the name OF Hamilton. II
seems that Hamilton. together with
the defendants. had been spending
the evening drinking in the Horse
shoe saloon. and that when the party
broke mp Yarbrough accompanied
him. and the two were held up in the
Occur d'Alene Lumber company
yards. Yarbrough being held up az

something like $50. He made com.
plant TO the police and an investi-
CATION followed. The police, It seems
found that a man by the name oil
Niholz had overheard conversation
between the defendants when they
were planning the robbery, and upon
this. together with other evidence
the defendants were arrested They
waived preliminary examination and
since that time have been awaiting
trial in the district court. Yarbrougt
being out on bonds and 0sgood be
ing confined in the county jail.

Both men. II is alleged. are hard
characters. Yarbrough's occupation
up to the time of his arrest seems to
have been that OF musician in the
Horseshoe saloon. and Osgood bore
the reputation OF being a gambler.
Up until late this afternoon the
case in the district court had pro-
crossed no further than the empan-
neling Of jury and the introduction
Of the testimony OF Hamilton. The
direct examination Of Hamilton was
brief and was In substance that he
had been held mp In Occur d'AIene
in the yards OF the Occur d'Alene
Lumber company and robbed Of $50.
He identified osgood as the man who
had robbed him. Up until a late
hour this afternoon he was still on
the stand undergoing a cross-examin-
alton by counsel for the defendants.
The theory OF the state in the case
Is that there existed an agreement
between the defendants TO rob Ham
iiton and that Yarbrough being held
up was but a part of the plan. The
evidence Of NihoIz. II is alleged. will
sustain this theory. The defense has
not yet indicated what its line OF tes-
timony will be.

ADAMS FEARS
COLORADO TRIAL,
Quails Before the Charge of MUIR
dering Arthur Collins

SPOKANE, Wash, Feb. 10. -
Everything is on the 'other side"
writes Steve Adams from his cell in
the Telluride, Col, jail in letter to
Attorney Fred Miller of Spokane,
who helped defend him twice against
the charge of numbering Fred Tyler
in the Marble creek, Idaho, country
in 1904.
BY everything being on the other
side, Adams means that the state
has lot of evidence. He always
said that If taken back to Colorado
to stand trial for the murder of Ar
thur Collins, a mine superintendent,
in 1908, he would never live to tell
the tale. Adams did not talk as If
he feared the outcome of the trial,
but he has a feeling that the people
in Colorado are against him and will
''get" him If he is cleared.
Miller, who was formerly one of
the counsel for the Western Fedora
ton of Miners, does not think that
he will go to Colorado to assist in
the defense of Adams. He has APP
peared for him twice, but since that
time has severed his connection with
the federation, which pays for the
defense of Steve Adams.
Two Hearings MistriaIs.
The first Adams trial for the al
legged murder of Tyler was held at
Wallace. Idaho, and the jury stood
six and six until discharged. The
second trial was held at Rathdrum,
Idaho. and the jury stood eight for
acquittal and four for conviction.
There was some misunderstanding
soon after this trial, in December, as
to what would be Adams finish. He
is charged with the killing of Fred
BOule about the time he is alleged
to have killed Tyler, but the charge
was never pressed. There was a
movement to take him to Boise to
testify against George A. Pettibone
in the Steunenberg murder case, but
he refused to go. Then the Colo
RADIO indictment was brought out
1t antedated either of the other
charges, but the Tyler case was sup
posed to be the strongest against
Adams and the Colorado trial was
put aside so that the examiner could
be tried in Kootenai county, idaho.
When Adams said he would not go
to Boise he was taken to Colorado.
Mr.. Miller, who heard from Adams
yesterday. said that the prisoner did
not say that his trial date had been
set. 1t is presumed that il will be
soon, however. Mr.. Miller also re-
ceived letter from Clarence S. OAR
row of Chicago, with whom he was
associated in the Adams and Hay
wood trials. Mr.. barrow has re-
turned from Los Angeles, Cal, to
Chicago. after a successful operation
in his left ear for a mastoid forma-
ton. He writes Mr.. Miller that he
is much improved. and it is probable
that he viii make the defense for
