AS matters now stand the wooden
mill plant will be offered for sale
next Saturday. October 10, by the
sheriff under the foreclosure proceed
ings brought by the First National
Bank of Hartford, Conn, which holds
the big mortgage against the plant.
While it Is the presumption that
the bank, or its agents. will bid in
the plant to protect itself, vet the
general sentiment is that the mill
property may be had at low figure.
Mill a Money Maker.
That the woolen mill can be made
profitable Industry is the firm be-
lief of G. NJ. Rice. cashier of the First
National bank, who in his capacity
as a financier has had much to do
with the backing of some OF the men
who have run the business in the
East.

affairs of the mill that 1t has made

TREATED CRUELTY
WASHINGTON INSANITY
COMMISSION REPORTS.
Committee Appointed by Governor
Mead Finds Bad Conditions at
Walla Walla Penitentlary-Patlcnts
Kept I'm Cells for % Hours Each
Day-No One TO Blame-Separate
Building Is Needed.

Seattle, oct. s.-I'he state insanity
committee, appointeH5 by Governor
Mead to examine into the conditions
OF insane criminals and the criminal
insane confined In the state peniten-
!iaY at Walla Walla, has renortad
that the conditions were extremely
bad, and because of inadequacy, were
cruel.
Many of the patients are dagerous
and on that account cannot be grant
ed the privileges enjoyed by the con-
victs. The result is that they are con-
fined to their cells for 22 hours each
day, with but two hours for open air
exercise. This with vitiated physical
conditions due to prolonged confine-
ment, tends to sink the unfortunates
into hopeless dementia.
The commission reported that the
conditions demanded a separate
building for these patients where un-
der protective walls for the public
safety they could have light employ
ment, exercise and some freedom.
The conditions as they now exist are
pointed out to be a great disgrace to
the state though no individual blame
can be made

GLASS DRIVEN INTO
BRAIN; GIRL LIVES
Surgeons Perform Operation That May
Save Life OF the Victim.

INV VI INV FACNaahs
New York, oct. S-Although the
point Of large silver Of glass pierced
her skull and entered the brain, II Is
believed that Blanche Goldstein, IS
years old, of Brooklyn, will lose neith-
er life nor reason as the result Of an
operation performed by surgeons at
st. Mary's hopsital.
The remarkable vitality Of the child
was taken advantage OF by the doctors
and a tumor gathering at the base Of
the brain was removed and the wound
was closed antlsceptlcally and the
brain covering brought together The
puncture in the skull was small and
II will be easily trepanned.
The child was playing in front Of
her home last Friday when a large
pane OF glass ,was dislodged from a
window on the third floor of the
house. 1t crashed edgewse on her
head, sharp fragment entering the
top Of her head. The girl fell un-
conscious and cut her chin and face
severely on fragments OF the glass on
the sidewalk. Upon the removal OF the
gathering on the brain, the little girl
who had been semi-unconscious since
the accident, frightened up percep-
tibly and asked that her parents be
brought to her. She recognized them
at once upon their arrival. The doc
tors predict a complete recovery.

Crete Joins With Greece.

Canea Gsland of Crete), oct. s.
4 decree announcing the union of
Crete with Greece. was published
here last evening. Events leading up
To the climax followed each other
throughout the day with dramatic
rapldlty. The town was bedecked and
early in the morning people began
flocking in from all directions. There
was much firing of guns and revol-
vers, with plenty of cheering, but per-
feet order prevailed. Musalmans
mingled with Austrans freely and un-
molested.
At o'clock in the afternoon the
demonstrations in favor of the union
with Greece occurred on the military
review grounds. More than a hun
dred thousand people, one of the larg-
est crowds ever seen here, gathered at
this place. All the prominent revo-
mtionary leaders, each with his ban
ner flying, appeared and they were
supported by the heads of the diff
ferent political parties, the mayors
of the towns, the clergy and other in
fluential men in the councils of the
island
Speeches were made by various rep
resentatives, who declared that the
peaceful political revolution which
they had assembled to consummate
was not directed against the powers,
which had been the islands benefac-
tors, but solely at proclaiming the is
lands union with the motherland.

Sheucrman Made Money.
Among local people IT is generally
known that during the year he oper-
ated the wooden mill Jacob Sheuer-
man made a profit of $4,000 out of
the plant. An investigation of this
impression made today, indicates that
It Is true.
Charles II. Carter
For many years Attorney c. II. Car
ter has been secretary for the old mill
corporation and though the old COM
pany has seemingly failed to make
any money out of the business, Mr..
Carter is an enthusiast in favor of
keeping the mill going. He says that
from his knowledge of the business
he believes that a woolen mill can be
made to pay In this city.

Murdered slim Jasperson. Also Bar.
tender in August at Huntington.

Baker City, oct. S.-After being
out IS hours the jury in the case OF
the State of Oregon versus d. r
Trapp, returned a verdict about noon
yesterday of murder in the second de-
gree. Trapp shot "Slim" Jasperson
last August in a saloon at Huntington.
Both men were bartenders. and the
motive for the shooting has never
been disclosed Traps defense was
that he was drugged, and while un-
der such influence shot Jasperson.
The murder was a cold-blooded affair
according to the evidence, Trapp en-
tering the Frazier saloon at Hunting
ton and deliberately shooting Jasper
son. The murderer's father was here
from Missouri, and is suffering intense
ly from the disgrace of the whole af-
fair.

SENTIMENT UNANIMOUS IN FAVOR Of RETAINING W0OLEN MILLS

The Pendleton woolen mill will not
be moved from this city If the bank
ers. business men and others who
have been seen by this paper today,
act upon the sentiments expressed.
In order to ascertain the feeling Of
local people upon the subject Of the
wooden mill half dozen or more
prominentlocal people were inter-
viewed and almost with a unan-
lmous voice they declared for the re-
tention OF the manufacturing plant
that has done so much for the city in
the past.
Local merchants are a unit in say
ing the plant should be continued
here, the bankers say the business is
a paying one and sheepmen say 1t
would be well for the sheep industry
of the c0unty to have a woolen mill
here.
It is now probable that the board
Of managers of the Commercial asso-
citation will be called together shortly
to talk over the subject and to name
a subcommittee to investigate the
matter with a view to making a stand
In favor Of keeping the mill in the
city.

With less than Is minutes of argu-
ment in all the case of State vs.. John
Behrenson was submitted to the jury
at 1880 O'clock this afternoon.
But few witnesses were called in
the trial. Mrs. Sailing, mother of the
baby girl, whom Behrenson is alleged
to have assaulted with criminal in
tent, told of the discovery of her child
in the abandoned house i'm company
with the defendant OF the fact that
the baby was disheveled and crying
and that after striking the man she
rushed out with the baby, calling Mr.
Lavender the marshal at Weston.
Lavender testified to the condition
of Behrensons clothing and to the
particulars OF placing him under ar
rest.
Behrenson was his own and only
witness. He flatly contradicted the
evidence given against him in some
respects and while on the stand SEEM
ed to be greatly worked up over the
accusations made.
The theory of the defense was that
the charges were the result of the
excitement of the baby's mother rath-
er than the result of an attempt at
actual crime.
The jury in the case consisted of D.
Kimbler, d. c. McCullen, O. Alder, A,

burg, James Johns, ]. A. Isaacs, A. A.
