PADDER
IS ARRESTED
A. C. PIERCE, SECTION =,
FOREMAN, is IN JAIL.
Buncoed o. r. & N. Company by
Drawing Pay for Greek Who Does
Not Exist - Capture Effected
Through Activity OF o. r. g. N. De-
tective Z. B. Wood-Bail Fixed at
s25o.

A. C. Pierce, former section fore
man for the o. r. & N. company at
Umatilla, now languishes in the
county Jail charged with having pad
ded his payroll and thereby buncoed
the railroad people out Of various
sums Of money,
Pierce was arrested at Umatilla
yesterday by E. B. Wood, o. r. & N.
detective. He was brought here on
the evening train and when brought
before Judge Gilliland, the only mag
istrate in the city then, his bail was
set at $3.50. This morning Pierce
waived preliminary examination and
he will now be held for the grand
jury.
To Detective Wood and to the o. R,
G. n. paymaster Pierce admitted his
guilt yesterday and If he could be
arraigned at once he would doubtless
plead guilty. But under the provis-
ions of the grand jury law now in
force he cannot be indicted except by
a grand jury and consequently he
must wait until September before he
can plead.
Worked Old-Time Game.
The scheme worked by Pierce was
a familiar one in this country years
ago. but it evidently does not oper-
ate as successfully now as in the
palmy days of old. Under the scheme
the foreman had fictitious names up
on his roll and by working some of
his Greeks to draw the checks he
drew down the money for himself.
The particular charge against
Pierce is that he buncoed the COM
pany by claiming that a George Ha-
mis- was one of his crew when such
man does not exist or If he does is
not upon the Umatilla section gang,
A Greek was induced to sign for Ha-
mis- pay.

RAILROADS WOULD

Ask Permission 10 Grant Steamship
Companies Special Privileges

San Francisco, July 1S.-Southern
Pacific, Santa Fe and Pacific Mail
Steamship companies are preparing
to have a hearing before the inter-
state commerce commission on the
question Of transcontinental rates for
goods shipped over the Pacific ocean.
The commissions rules compel the
railroads to charge the same price
for these goods as for Others, where
as 1t has been customary for roads
to make a cheaper rate to the steam
ship companies. The plea is to be
made to the commission that the
steamers travelling through the Suez
canal will get the trade II the trans
continental roads are not allowed to
juggle with the rates as they please.

In a fire that might have been
much more serious than 1t was, the
Pastime picture show. owned by Cass
Matlock and Jesse Sellers, was dis
mantled shortly after 2 o'clock this
afternoon.
At that hour the show was starting
on its afternoons performance and
Will Trites was serving as operator.
About 80 people, largely ladies and
children, were in the house spark
from the picture machine ignited one
OF the celluloid films and almost be-
fore the operator could grasp the sit
uaton the little steel box room was
a mass OF flames.
Quickly pulling the wire that low
cred the doors of the steel room
Trites jumped out OF the place just
in time to avoid being scorched him
self. o..
Meanwhile those in the audience
became frightened when the doors Of
the box were closed and they all made
q hurried exit in safety.
Damage TO the extent of $500 or
$500 was inflicted by the fire. The
picture machine itself was valued at
sl75, a graphaphone at $50. while
two reels of films burned are said
to have been worth $500.
Steel Box Useful.
Had the picture machine not been
enclosed in a steel room, as required
by the city council and fire depart
ment. there would likely have been a
bad fire at the Pastime. Owing to
the rapidity with which the film be-
came ignited It is probable the entire
front OF the show shop would have
been ablaze before the people could
escape had the steel box not saved
the day,
In the opinion of Fire Chief John
Vaughan there would have been some
lives lost had II not been for the
steel box and 1t is safe to say the
rules regarding the housing of pic
ture machines will be closely observ-
ed hereafter.
All OF the picture shows have their
machines inclosed in steel rooms and
consequently there is little danger
from fires because the boxes will hold
a blaze long enough for the people to
escape.

Now that the campaign against tu-
bercular cows has been started there
is good possibility that at last PEN
dleton will obtain a thorough, far
reaching ordinance for the protection
Of the towns food supply.
At the last meeting OF the council
the task Of drawing an ordinance reg
ulating dairies was left with City At
torney ]. r. Raley, DR.. w. G. Cole
and S. w. Mcclure. Up to this time
the ordinance has not been drafted,
but the subject is being given much
attention and it will be presented In
due time.
Aside from barring dairy cows hav-
ing tuberculosis it is now proposed to
further protect the milk supply of the
city by prescribing certain sanitary
measures for the dairymen. At pres
ent no cream may be had Of the los
cal dairies and patrons asking for
the same are told by the dairymep
that the cream sours on them.
Milk Shouldn't Sour.
According to DR.. Mcclure and
other authorities neither cream nor
ordinary milk should sour If the milA
cans are properly scalded and cared
for. Likewise it is held that dairy
men should not leave their own milk
bottles or cans at houses where ty-
phoid, scarlet fever or other infec-
tious diseases prevail, for there Is no
better media than milk for the trans
mission Of disease germs.
1t is also probable that the ordi-
nance will have something to say re-
garding the sanitary condition OF the
barns or corrals in which dairy cows
are milked.
Then the methods Of the man who
does the milking is also said to be of
vast Importance for If he does not
have a proper idea of cleanliness the
iairy's patrons suffer. According to
the doctors, milk Is not fit for use II
when lert standing a dirt sediment
forms at the bottom Of the bottle.
Taboo for Near Milk.
Furthermore the quality of the
milk sold may be regulated, as Is now
done in nearly all progressive cities
At Present a dairyman may sell
SKINNED milk for milk il he wishes
% and his patrons will stand for such
reatment. In many places milk sold
BY dairies is required to measure up
10 a certain standard, under the Bab-
cock test, and the forthcoming ordi-
nance may have a provision to this
effect.
Since the agitation for the regula-
ion Of the dairies was started a short
line ago the public has become much
in the subject and there
S now a widespread demand for the
natter to be sifted to the bottom.
Many have been heard to declare that
+ any of the local dairy cows have tu-
oerculosis the fact should be discov-
ared. 1t is held that the children OF
he city should not be fed upon milk
rom afflicted cows and in the work
If enforcing the ordinance, when II
has been passed, the authorities will
'e fully sustained by the public.
