ELLIOTT GIRLS BROTHER
MAKES A STATEMENT

Greenacres. Wash, April Is, 1910.
To whom it may concern: The
undersigned, Glen Gross. is a
brother of Rosie Elliott, the girl
mentioned in the affidavits affect
ing Policemen Glider and Hood.
came to Spokane from Cody, Wyo.,
about December 7, 1907 / went
to the home of j. H. Elliott, E1722
Riverside avenue, and there re-
manned until the 10Th or 18th day
of January, 1910, when | went to
work at my present place at Peter
Morrison's, Saltese Lake.
While. | was at Mr.. Elliott's
house l learned that my sister
Rosie had gone to the rooms of
Officers Glider and Hood. E1326
Sprague avenue. | tried to get her
to come away, saying that it did
not look right to be there alone
with two men, especially at night.
She paid no attention to me. A
couple of other times | tried to get
her to leave, but she would not.
PECULIAR CASE. OF "MUMPs."
Rosie told me that Officer
Hoods illness was due to pri-
vate disease and that she was nurs-
ing him. He had swelling around
the neck. and claimed it was the
humps, but l didn't know what
his ailment was. One thing that
made me think he did not have the
mumps was that he could swallow
anything sour or sweet, which you
can not do with mumps. l saw him
take a drink of vinegar and eat
sugar.
Things did not look right to me,
and in the evening | went over
and stayed at the rooms of Police
men Hood and Glider every night
until 8 or 10 o'clock, when l re-
turned to Elliott's, where l slept
Rosie remained in the officers
rooms day and night for two weeks.
l went there two or three morn
ings and found the doors locked
one day until noon. | asked Rosie
why the doors were locked. and
she said that she was lying down
and did not want to be disturbed.
GIRL WAS WELL TREATED.
Rosie told me that she was treat
ed well by Mr.. and Mrs. Elliott un-
til she got of age, when she had
some trouble with Mr.. Elliott be-
cause he would not give her her
own way. GLEN GROSS.

WAR ON PLUMBING
COMPANY ENDS

War between the Manning
Plumbing company and organized
labor in Spokane is at an end. The
Manning Plumbing company, which
has been one of the chief factors
in opposing organized labor in Spo-
kane, has now signed with the I'M
ions, it is declared, and every man
in its employ is carrying card.
Settlement of grievances that
have existed between this concern
and the labor unions of the city is
declared to have been brought to
a close yesterday evening, when
the board of business agents of all
the unions in the city and the eX-
ecutive board of the Structural
Building Trades alliance called
upon the warning concern and eff
fected an agreement.

NOT
LASTING At
CITY HALL

The peace on the Upper floors of
the city hall is of only temporary
duration, it seems. While the
storm at the city hall is at present
raging about the police department,
there promises to be few more
eruptions soon in other places.
First, however, in the line of ne
cessity for housekeeping is the po-
lice department. After this there
are a few things that must be
threshed out with the board of pub
lie works, chief of these is the reas-
on for the issuance of orders to tie
up the building of the water extern
sons.
1t is said that the crematory de-
partment is reposing over vol
cano that may break forth G.t any
time, and a few other little matters
loom that will remove any chance
for dullness at the city hall for
few weeks, at least.
Out at the isolation hospital old
man Harris is still pulling down the
coin, but not in such large chunks
as he did few weeks back, before
The Press put molasses in his hair.
With Ralston, Lee, Blair, Bur
cham and Tuerke retired to private
life, it seems that peace should
reign, but then there are such
high counsellors as II. D. Merritt
still at large, who can start few
things when it is necessary.
The members of the "EX-City Of
ficeholders' association, formed
recently by Carl w. Tuerke, may
not be on the payroll, but they are
nevertheless active and can stir up
q little trouble occasionally.

JEFFRLES HAS AN
ATTACK OF CRAMPS

1t took rubbers about five min
utes to ease the pain and put the
arm in condition SO Jeffries could
use 1t again.
Near the end of the third round
Armstrong biffed him on the side
of the head. Jeff grunted and the
next moment stopped fighting.
THAT cramp is in my neck now,"
he exclaimed.
Those sudden attacks have set. a
number of fans to wondering jK
what would happen If Jeffries
should be taken with cramps while
fighting Johnson in 60 days.

TESTIMONY IN BALliNGER
CASE.
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
WASHINGTON, April 16.-E. c.
Finney, an assistant to Secretary
of the Interior Ballinger, testified
today before the congressional in
vestigation committee that Balling-
err had never written a contract in
the Truckee reclamation projects.
Ballinger had been criticized for
his attitude in the matter because
it was alleged that the government
would have surrendered valuable
water rights. Finney declared that
Ballinger had nothing to do with
contracts affecting the Tahoe NE
ada-Californiaj project. He said
that the reclamation service had
sought TO acquire additional water
for the Truckee- Carson project.
