WASHINGTON, March 17.-De-
claring that the recent financial
stringency was brought about by
the influence of the Standard Oil
company and J. Pierpont Morgan,
Senator La Toilette today. in a
speech practically closing the debate
on the Aldrich bill, entered upon the
denunciation of men high in the
financial world.
'"There were no commercial rea-
sons for the panic" said Mr.. La Fol-
lette. "There were speculative, leg
islative and political reasons why
the panic might serve special inter-
ests. There were business scores to
settle, legislation to be blocked and
currency measures suited to "the
system" secured. There was a third
term to be disposed of and policies
to be discredited"
La Toilette was severe in his de-
nunciation of the high fnanciers,
and told how the Wall street finan-
ciers assisted in crushing the small
investor last October. He told of the
overcapitalization of corporations
and other abuses and discussed the
economic development of the coun-
try and the growing financial COM

More definite reports as to the dam

able to reach Kendrick sometime to-
day or tomorrow The track be-
tween here and Juliaetta is washed
away for a distance of about 20 car
lengths. and heavy damage is re-
ported below Juliaetta.
The loss to Nez Perce and Latah
counties will be quite severe by rea-
son of the damage to bridges and
roadways along the creek bottoms.

With the falling of Potlatch river
the railroad company has found the
damage to their tracks is not as
great as first believed, and it is ex-
pected train service can be restored
by the latter part of the week.
The work of repairing the track
will be greatly embarrassed because
of the necessity of making fills and
the impossibility of bringing in the
needed equipment, but wherever pos
sible temporary tracks will be con-
structed and service restored at the
earliest possible date. The perma-
nent work OF refilling the grade and
depositing the ballast will probably
require several weeks, but<-this fea-
tire of the repaid will be greatly fa-
cilitated by the construction Of tenn

Mr.. Orbison was the pioneer mer-

when the reservation was first
opened and opening a general stock
of merchandise and groceries for the
reservation trade. During the first
years, when markets were far away
and prices were low, many of the

Mr. Orbison continued in the mer-
camille business here until about
four years ago, when he sold his
stock. Since that time he has resid-
ed here most of the time, and about
year ago purchased the Nezperce
hotel, which he was conducting at
the time of his death. He has been
in poor health for the past several
months, being a sufferer from
