SEVERAL DAYS OF IT.

Washington, Jan. A cold wave
with zero temperatures will spread
over almost the entire country within
the next three days, a special bulletin
of the weather bureau to-
day. The northwest will feel the cold
almost Immediately and be hardest

days.
Indications of the coming of zero

Alaska and the north Pacific this
morning in an area Of pronounced high
pressure, the first of the present
winter. Areas of low pressure pre-
vail over the south Pacific and In
terror Of the country. In this com
bination of atmospheric conditions

REMAINS
IDENTIFIED
MAN FOUND DEAD IN. SEATTLEtI
WAS SON OF WEALTHY
ENGLISH RESIDENT.

tF-
Seattle. a 4.-Identification as
George Bowen, son of a wealthy resi-
dent Of Manchester, England, was
made today of the man known as K.
Lirhus, who was asphyxiated in a
Japanese lodging house New Years
morning, after celebrating the passing
of 1912 with William O'Connor, who
was found dead beside him. Identi-
fication was made by James Shan
non, who met Bowen when he am
from England in 1909, and to whom
Bowen confided his identity. Shan
non said Bowen, who was 30 years
old, ran away from home and that his
father, William Wentworth Bowen, fol-
lowed him to America and was in Seat
tie a month ago searching for his son.
The elder Bowen went from here to
British Columbia to continue the
search.
When Bowen, or Lirhus, came to
this state he went to work for o.
Conner. The two came to Seattle to
celebrate the advent of the new year,
and it is believed by Shannon, that
Bowen's death resulted from a sui
cidal mania with which O'Conner Is
said to have been afflicted.

LONCL0ST HE|RESS
IS FINALLY LOCATED

Council Bluffs, Iowa, Jan. AFTER
searching 25 years for the heirs of
Mrs. Anna Whitaker, the administra-
tor of the $50, 600 estate has just To-
Gated a daughter. Mrs. Julia Sanford.
in Olympia. Wash.
Mrs. Sanford is said to have mar
ried at the age of 13 against her
mothers wishes, and shortly ccom
panied her first husband, Charles Be
bee, to South America, where he died
soon after arrival. Mrs. Bebee re-
turned to the United States and mar
ried her present husband, Joseph San
ford, in Ell Paso, Texas.
Recently Mrs. Sanford wrote to
relatives in western Iowa, n admin
istrators of the Whitaker estate thus
learned of her whereabouts. To-day
an officer of the court was informed
that Mrs. Sanford would return to re-
ceive her share of the fortune, the
alu of which has greatly increased
since Mrs. Whittakef's death.

CANNOT HANG MAN
LEGALLY DEAD
TIME FOR EXECUTION OF COLO.
RADOAN EXPIRES AND HE
SEEMS TO BE SAFE.

Denver, Jan. 4.-Attorneys for Oscar
Cook, sentenced to hang for the MUIR
der of William j. Mcpherson, said to-
day that their client had been legally
dead since the week of November II
the period originally set for execu-
tion-and that the state now has no
right to execute him or set q new
date for the hanging.
Cook has been confined in the coun-
ty Jail here since his conviction. He
was not taken to the state peniten-
tiary because his attorney had Sc
cured a writ of supersedeas from the
supreme court. 1t was discovered to-
day, however, that the family of Cook
had failed toy provide funds for
printing the abstract of record, as
required by the supreme court. When
the go days allowed for filing the abb
stract expired, the appeal to the SUI
preme court died automatically. There
was then no obstacle in the way of
carrying out the execution. The au-
thorities, however, supposed the APP
peal was still pending. Therefore the
execution never took place.
Attorneys assert that as there is no
legal bar to the execution, it took
place, theoretically. on the ate set
and Cook is legally dead. Cool
stands charged with the murder of
Andrew j. Lloyd who was Killed at
the time of the Mcpherson murder,
out attorneys say that Cook, being
legally a dead man, cannot be tried
on this charge.

JA|LBREAk EFFORT
IS FUTILE
=
INMATE USES NITRO GLYcERiNE
TO BREAK OUT, BUT FAILS
TO GET AWAY.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Jan. with d
bottle of ni~troglycer.na in his hand,
Harvey Lee, charged with burglary,
held a squad of officers at bay for
nearly an hour today in the county
Jail, at Marion, six miles from here.
In the riot which followed, Officer
Charles Gilin Of Cedar Rapids. fell
dead with a bullet wound through his
breast and Detective John Cook was
shot through the hand.
Lee evidently had been provided
with nitroglycerine by a visitor. He
first blew off the loci of his cell and
was attempting to blow out the bars
in his window when the officers APP
peared. Lee claimed he had no pistol
when captured and the officers ad-
mitted they found no weapons on him.
Who fired the shot which killed Gillin
has not been ascertained.
The fight followed an attempted Jail
delivery in which WI explosions oc-
Cured in rapid succession. They cut
all means of communication SO that
only n telephone wire was available
after HI explosions.
Sheriff Ives was awakened about /
O'Clock this morning by an explosion
in the rear of the Jail. Before he
could dress, a second explosion oc-
CURED. He discovered that the tele-
phone wires had been cut but finally
got into communication with the p,-
lice department. A squad of six
officers was sent to the scene.
After Gillin was killed the remain
ing officers ISL Lee and over
powered him. The other prisoners
in the Jail We're demoralized but NO
one had attempted to escape. They
We're brought to Cedar Rapids for safe
keeping. Sheriff's deputies are
searching for the man who attempted
to liberate Lee.
The Jail wall vas only slightly dam
aged, the job apparently being the
work of inexperienced men. Nitro
glycerine had been used.

New York, Jan. 4.-Better resist
ance was offered by the stock market
today to the weakness of various

day. Nearly all of the important rail-
roads and industrials had made mod

troleum stocks sold off sharply. st.
Paul, the strongest of the important
railway stocks, was helped by the No
vember report of the system, disclos-
ing large gains in gross and net earn
ings for both the present corporation
and the Puget Sound.
A strong showing was made by the
banks in their weekly report. The re-
turn flow OF money paid out at the
opening of the year was reflected in
an expansion of over $4,000, 600 in de-
posts. and the cash gain of nearly
$50 0 200 paralleled with predictions.
The loan increase was considerably
smaller than the first week of 1912.

gigantic avalanche sweeping down a
steep mountain side near Java last
evening carrying with it trees and
boulders in it's path as if they We're

Northern and paralyzed traffic for
hours east for two days.
The slide in its curse piled the
mixed conglomeration of snow, trees

a distance of a quarter of a mile and
from 10 to 20 feet deep, and defied all
modern snoW-tighting machines to get
it off. Rotary snow ploWs were USE
less trying to bore through Sc much
green timber, and dynamite had to be
resorted to after a While. An army
of shOvelers and laborers cleaned i,
out.
In one place 100 feet of road was
swept away and carried down the
slope into Bear creek, 1000 feet below.
Two passenger trains had been held
in the blockade lear Summit but the
passengers have been receiving every
possible comfort from the officials and
it is expected that they would be able
to move forward tonight. East-bound

How are the inequalities in society

result of a thorough analysis of all

Vain Fears.
1T is easily seen tina under the
progressive platform the whole
machinery that had peer SO carefully
built up by the older statesmen of
this country and Of England to save
to the individual and the minority
freedom, equality before, the law, the
right of property and the right to
pursue happiness, Is to be taken apart
and thrown into a junk heap and he
preservation of such rights or privi-
,eges, if o choose to call them such,
is to be left to the charitable impulses
of a benevolent administration
n one familiar with the principles
of free government and the tendency
of efring II power-loving human
nature would be ontent to have his
liberty or his right Of property or his
right to pursue happiness dependent
upon the benevolence of any one.
Now it has been suggested that the
republican party unite again with
many of the progressive party if only
a different rule can be put into force
through the convention or the nation
al committee by which the reduction
of southern representation would be
secured and a fairer method of Sc
lecting the candidates for president
by the republican party could be de-
yised.
Il haven't any objection to any
method which shall be fair. That is
not a reason for joining or giving up
the party. 1t is the principle that the
party advocates that should control on
it's support.
Not Cast Down.
1T is not that the republican party
is DESTROYS of holding office or power,
though neither is to be despised, but
it is that in this crisis we feel that
we have the means of preventing the
country from taking a step which
if taken will precipitate us into gov
ernmental chaos, will set the com
mun;ty on a chimerical chase for an
ideal that is impossible to realize, and
in that chase the community will
lose the inestimable benefits of a
permanent, popular government that
we have developed after a thousand
years of struggle and have created,
maintained and preserved inviolate
for 125 years of national liberty. We
are not bitter; we are not cast down;
| we are not vengeful.
IF the people of the United States

to their capacity for endurance in this

ourselves of is that neither through
