PRISONER
SHIPPED
WHlZ OF BULLET NEAR HIS
HEAD, AND THOUGHTS OF
h FREEDOM VANISH
LACKED |. W. W. SPEED

"Npp!" whistled bullet past the
head Of Charles Louden, would be
jail escape, this morning, and pIunk
fell Charles upon the earth, with
all thoughts Of freedom vanished
from his brain.
Emboldened by the near-escape of
Pansner last Saturday, Louden
seized the first opportunity to leave
his sidewalk celaning companions
and started across the lot north of
the courthouse.
Deputy Sheriff Max Anderson
was on the job, however, and three
bullets which whistled perilously
near the fugitive made him think
better Of his plans for flight and
throw himself upon the ground to
escape the fusilade of bullets. Lou
den is still at work in the side
walk gang, but drags around a
couple of balls as mementos of his
attempted flight.
Louden was sentenced to three
months in Jail, $3.50 fine and e75
costs by Judge j. Stanley Webster
on November for conspiracy. He
and John Logan framed up a deal
whereby J. l.. McCrea bought
worthless moving picture machine
upon the representation that he was
to have a 80 weeks job at $50 per
week.

Of the American Federation Of La
Dor are today In session at the

Although no definite reports have
been sent out, 1t is believed thar
the purpose of the meeting at the
Twin Cities Is to consider the re-
suits of the work of Chairman Per
ham of the railway department,
who has been at the national capi-
tai in an endeavor to bring about
an agreement between the roads
and the strikers.
Local switchmen admit that the
result of the present conferences
will be either a settlement or a
sympathetic strike on the part of
the other railroad orders of the
A. F. of l..
The striking switchmen here
place no credence in the reports
that the roads will blacklist men
who take part in the strike. 1t Is
believed that the announcements is
only bluff on the part of the roads
to swing the strikers into line.

WORRIED
PNCHOT HAS BEEN IN
COMMUNICATION
WITH T. r.
(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-Gifford
Pinchot Is preparing a statement
which will be designed to vindicate
his position in the controversy
which led to his dismissal as chief
forester by President Taft.
Stories that Pinchot has been in
communication with Colonel Roose-
welt, since the former president
went to Africa, are not denied by
Pinchot's friends today. The Taft
administration supporters appear
to be much concerned over the pos
sible contents of the PinchOt state
ment 1t is expected it will point
out in strong terms what Pinchot
considers the dangers of the atti-
tude of the Taft administration to-
ward the conservation of the ma
tional resources.
Pinchot is preparing his state
ment in his capacity as a private
citizen. The work so far has been
slow, as he has been constantly in
terrupted by a stream of sympa-
thetic visitors, who called to eX-
press their regret that he has left
the government service. He is be-
ing almost buried under an ava
lanche of mail and kilograms from
sympathizers throughout the coun-
try.

JUDGE MANN THINKS A STAND
PATTER WILL NOT HAVE

The congressional bee is buzzinz
In the cars of Justice s. A. Mann,
judge Of the Spokane police court.
The bee was set in motion by his
friends and of late has been work
ing harder than ever.
Judge Mann has thus far resisted
the opportunities Of his friends to
make the race. He has the matter
under consideration and there Is
strong probability that at the time
the word is given Judge Mann will
be among the entries In the great
race.
Judge Mann today, In response
to the question of whether or not he
would be a candidate, said:
when the matter was first
broached to me I dismissed it with
the statement that the place was
for older heads in the political
game. But the suggestions to en-
ter the race have continued to come
until / am forced to give the matter
serious consideration.
Should I conclude to enter the
race you will find me standing close
to the people and supporting men
and measures that people approve
Of. coincide with the, statement
in the Sunday Press that the next
congressman from this district
must be a progressive, for none
other will gain public support.
However, if I become candi-
date / will announce my views on
