Tells How He Started in Business
and of Plans When He Sold
to Trust.

Washington, Jan. 10.-Summoned
by subpoena after he had refused to
testify voluntarily, andrew Carnegie
appeared before the Stanley commit
tee. steel trust probers. today.
Clipper and smiling, Carnegie took
the stano, carrying voluminous docu-
ments. He told how he started the
iron business in 1861 and the next
year borrowed $1,000 900 from the
Third National bank and started
building iron bridges. THAT was my
start" he said.
Carnegie was very verbose and
lodged pointed questions by saying
he left much of his work to his man
ayers and he declined to discuss any
thing that he was not absolutely sure
Of Most of his testimony was verbal
treatises on philosophy, economics
etc.
Asked Concerning his plans wher
he sold out to the steel trust, Carne-
gle said: 'If I had remained in the
steel business 1 would have built &
plant at Conneaut, Ohio, which would
have astonished the world and abso
lutely crushed all competition. Char

MILLIONS LIVE ON WEEDS
Newspaper Correspondent Travels
Through Famine Stricken Prov
inces and Brings Out News Which
Government Has Rigidly Suppressed

London, Jan. 10.-Hundreds OF
thousands of peasants have perished
of starvation, millions of poor are in
dire Distress many are living on
weeds, and scurvy and typhus are
prevalent in the eastern Russian pro-
vinces. The horrible conditions were
made known by United Press cor
respondent who has just returned
from a trip through that country.
Russia is using strict censorship to
hide the conditions. The failure of
crops Is the cause.
Crops entirely failed in eight
provinces and-partially in twelve. En-
tire villages are feeding ntanbark
weeds in some sections and the poor
many times rollow priests through the
streets crying for sacraments to the
dying. on account of the starving
conditions.
The imperial government is trying
to alleviate the suffering, which Is
yond its powers and but little aid
reaches the real needy. owing to Of
ficials' grating.
To add to the horror it is a severe
winter. A number of villages have
been stormed by starving mobs ant
ransacked.

SCREEN TO SHIELD
LONE Female JUROR

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 10.-Mrs. Retta
Doddridge, the only woman on the
jury that is hearing the manslaughter
case, will sleep behind a screen in
the same room with the eleven men
on the jury, under a ruling made by
Judge j. H. Ronald today. Mrs.
Doddridge will have the attendance
of a woman bailiff who will occupy
an adjoining couch. This arrange
ment was made when counsel for
Joseph Bianchi, city detective on
trial for killing a prisoner who at
tempted to escape, objected to the ju-
rors being separated. The attorney
insisted that the law prohibiting the
separation of jurors in a murder case
be complied with to the letter and OBJ
jected to the idea of a screen dividing
the jury room. Judge Ronold said
the law must be applied to twentieth
; century conditions and allowances
i must be made for conventionality.
He held that the use of the screen
to provide privacy for a woman juror
did not constitute a separation of the
jury and this arrangement was made

Weston Report Tells of Refusal to

While the Reverend-sometimes

comes from Weston where he So
journed for several days and which
throws a slightly different light on
his particular brand of enlighten-
ment.
According to the story, the negro
in question was approached by a
well known Weston man who for
merly resided in a southern state and
had some knowledge of the many su-
perstitious legends harbored by a
! large proportion of the colored popu-
lation of that section. He asked the
"maneater" If he was superstitious
and was told that he, the cannibal
was too enlightened" to believe in
signs.
The Weston man approached Rev
or Prof Swackhanner and held out a
skull and cross bones ring, the story
goes, telling him that he secured it In
some unaccountable manner from a
grave yard and on leaving the grave
yard had met four darkies to whom
he offered one dollar If they would
touch the ring. Three of them de.
clined and the fourth touched the
ring, he told Swackhanner, and i'm.
medately dropped dead.
The Weston man then is said tC
have offered the enlightened Rev. ol
Prof. Swackhanner a dollar If h,
would touch the ring. The lattel
promptly declined the offer.
This is the same Rev. or Prof

FIVE MORE CONFESSED CRIMINALS ARE
GIVEN SENTENCES IN DISTRICT COURT

larceny, We're sentenced to pay a 500
fine each or to spend fifty days in the
county Jail. They have not yet rais-
ed money and are still in Jail.
Jim Roach, who only escaped fac
ing a murder charge or some other
almost as serious by the failure of his
revolver to explode when he had
placed it against the abdomen OF
Umatilla bartender and pulled the
trigger. escaped with the lightest
sentence of all because the grand
jury only indicted him on a charge
of carrying concealed weapons. He
was sentenced to pay fine OF $50 or
serve a 25 day Jail sentence. He is
still in Jail.
OF the eight men indicted by the
grand jury. seven have thus far plead
guilty and received sentences. The
other, Ed Montgomery. who is charged
with assault with a dangerous wea-
pom, is still indisposed to plead guilty
although the officials believe he will
before his case comes up for trial.

Pendleton people retired to their
beds last night with that happy
thought and for the first time in a
week their dreams were not troubled
by visions OF bursted water pipes and
the horrible nightmare of the plumber

So warm was the night that the

has been slowly giving way before
the onslaught of the Chinook. Roof
ridges soon began to appear, while
from the caves the gentle dripping
tells of the doom Of the snow. As
the snow becomes loosened on the
sloping roofs. many small slides occur
but no injuries or damage have been
reported in consequence.
