How Did Biggy Die7-

Peter r. Lettick d San Francisco,
who II in the city oi the purpose Of
building an oil tank for the Union
oil Company, says there may be
grave doubt that Chief Of Police
Biggy Of San francisco committed
suicide BY jumping into the bay from
the launch, Mr.. Leliiek says he knew
Chief Bisgy well, and that not for a
moment could be believe that he
destroy himself and i is apparent
from what he says that many others
in the California city place little
eredence in the suicide theory. II
may be even doubted that he was in
the launch at the time il is said he
was, according 10 some Of the
theories advanced.

AN ASToRIAN REGRETFULLY
PASSES UP A DIRECT AND
LOGICAL INQUIRY.

The Morning Astorian is just in
receipt OF the following pertinent in
quiry, and eonfesses that it had quite
forgotten the pending matters Of
charter amendment;
astoria, Dec 2, 1908.
Editor Astoria:
'You state, this morning, in the
Astorian, that the l0.mill levy pro-
posed by the Council, will make, on
present assessment, as large a tax
as last year, nearly How will It be
addeda That will make the city tax
double what it was last yearl
INQUIRER"
The Astorian respectfully refers
the thoughtful seeker after figures, to
the elaborate exposition in yester-
day evenings Budget, where it is
proven to the complete satisfaction
Of the author of the SeawalI bill and
the meagre following behind that
measure that the $500 propertyholder
Of Astoria will only pay about II
cents year for the glorious privi-
lege Of helping to build this vast
strategical and commercial appen-
age to the municipal makeup. Per-
haps in that absurd, and inspired,
presentment Of delirious figures, the
anxious inquirer may find some
clever twist that will serve his pur-
pose; and in default, he may take
the Astorian's word for it that the
proposed l2-mill additional levies
will not be made by the city of AS
toria for some time to come, at least
not by seven mills.
