snIt involves Ricl, Lands.

SILVER LAKE, Ore, Nov 10
George and Margaret Conn, old set
tiers of Lake county, have brought
suit to invalidate the contract under
which they sold certain real estate in
the vicinity of Paisley. The defend
ants are the Northwest Townsite COM
pany and the Portland Irrigation
company whose officers and stock
holders chiefly are residents of Port
land, and persons who have bought
lots in several new additions to the
town or farming tracts in that vicin-
ity.
The Conns allege that the compan-
les are delinquent in their annual
payment for the land. The defend
ant reply that Georgia Conn sold wa
ter rights to which he did not hold
title.
Title to irrigahle acreaEe valued at
thousands of dollars will be clouded
until the suit is settled Persons
who bought land from the townsite
and irrigation companies are made
the innocent victims.

and field athletics will be decided in
the annual meeting Of the Amateur
Athletic Union which opened today at
the Waldorf Astoria. Several radical
amendments to the constitution of the

Secret Pact Alleged

LONDON, Nov. 16.-The Morning

According to statements made by
a diplomat here, Turkey was compell-
ed TO enter the war by a secret treaty
made some years ago with Germany,
whereby Turkey agreed to assist Ger
many II war was declared on Germany
by Russia.
"In return Germany likewise agreed
to assist Turkey II Russia declared
war on Turkey.
AT the opening OF the war Ger
many demanded Turkeys assistance,
but the Turkish cabinet, which re-
garded such an act as suicide, replied
that Turkey would be unable to assist
because she had no money, because
the army was going through a period
of reorganization and because the
fleet was powerless to defend the cap
ltal.
Germany answered these objec-
tions by sending money. men and
ships, whereupon Turkey was COM

GERMAN SPIES INFEST
TERRITORY OF ENEMY
NOVEL METHODS USED TO SEND
INFORMATION OF RUSSIAN
MOVEMENTS.

PETROGRAD, oct. 24-(By Mail
to New k.)-Fresh examples of
the ingenuity displayed by German
spies are being - discovered almost
daily, and the utmost vigilance has
to be maintained In territory occupied
by Russian troops. Recently It be-
came apparent that information as
10 the positions and movements of
troops at Insterberg was being con-
yeyed to the enemy, but try as they
might the Russians could not locate
the Spy or fathom his methods. There
were no telegraph or telephone wires
available. nor was II possible for
courlers to do the work. BY day or
night the socalled optical connec-
tions," hellographs, lights. smoke, etc,
could not exist, yet the Germans were
obtaining accurate and rapid informa-
tlon.
The Russian staff came up TO the
conclusion that the only solution was
submarine lines laid before the out
break OF hostilities This assumption
was justified in several instances. and
in the village OF Margraboff the local
school teacher was found TO be US
ing a telephone. the instrument and
wires OF which were hidden in a hat
box. The Russians had searched the
mans house but the hat-box lying
among a heap OF mems. women's and
chlldren's clothes in a wardrobe at /
tracted no attention. From this hat
box the telephone wires went to pla-
ces were German troops were station
ed. and the operator actually had a
small branch exchange by which he
could communicate with particular
commanders.
The spy gained his information
either by his own observation or from
Russian soldiers whom lie called into
his home and regaled with dainties.
the while he was pumping" them as
TO their movements. AS soon as the
telephone was discovered the Rus
SLAMS telephoned to the Germans some
false and misleading information
(with satisfactory results TO them
selves and then destroyed the instru-
ment. The teacher was shot.

YALE DOPED OUT TO
BEAT HARVARD 75-O
FOLLOWERS OF FOOTBALL SEE
DEFEAT OF THE GRIM
SON TEAM.
(By Hal Sheridan. Written for the
United Press.)

| (By Hal Sheridan. Written for the
United Press.)
NEW YORK. Nov. 16.-It's all off
fellers. The dope has been figured
and Yale will beat Harvard 75 TO O..
You know the old wheeze someone
pulled off to the effect that figures
don't lie, but this is not advising a
bet on the figures to appear herein
and hereafter as this tangle of dope
is unravelled.
In guiding up the fabric. 1t is first
necessary to point out that Michigan
beat the Michigan Aggies to 0. Fol-
lowing this momentous event, Nebras-
ka beat the Michigan Aggies "a to 0,
making Nebraska 81 to better than
Michigan. Following closely for
South Dakota tied Nebraska and may
therefore also be credited with being
21 to 0 better than Michigan. That
brings us to a cruical point, so we'll
start new paragraph.
Notre Dame beat South Dakota 33
to 0. Adding 81 and S3, Notre Dame
must therefore be 81 to better than
Michigan Notre Dame then Journey
ed east Yale beat Notre Dame 2Sl
to 0 and by the dope is therefor 81
to better than Michigan. And now
comes the crusher. Harvard defeated
Michigan by the measly score of to
O. Hence and therefore, Yale must
be rs to 0 better than Harvard-and |
there you are.
This about represents the value of
dope and figures which all pursue and
then stand idly by and see spilled over
several acres when the actual COM
bat comes. In these wild days. the
lest to expect when everything looks
rosy is a jump in the opposite jirec-
tion. Everything promises one of the
most interesting fights in years when
Yale and Harvard get together. AS a
last resort Harvard may have Charles
Brickley's left foot educated well
enough for him to step in and take
shot at a goal from field II the Grim
sons get inside the .25 yard line, but

ley will have a month between him
and his recent visit to the hospital
by that time. The wound resulting
from the operation from appendicitis
permits the swinging of the left foot
against the pigskin and Brickley may
be expected to take shot If Harvard

ENGLISH VIEW OF CAPTURE.
Critics Wonder If kaiser's War Ma
chine Has Been 6affled.
By HERBERT TEMPLE,
European Manager Of international
News Service.

European Manager Of international
News Service.
LONDON, Aug. 21.-Is the German
advance through Louvain and Brussels
great thanking movement aimed to
drive the French toward Sedan, and
cut them off from English help as they
have been cut off from the Belgians.
or has the Kaisers war machine been
baffled?
Within ninety-six hours We probably
shall have the answers to all these
questions. From military standpoint
the occupation of Brussels means that
the Germans are steadily advancing.
The forces of their right wing are only
few miles to the north, and a few
miles to the east of Waterloo.
1t is possible that a battle may be
fought on the field where 80 years
ago Napoleon Bonaparte's army was
smashed, but it is more than probable
that the colossal shock impending will
come along the Meuse. and the French
frontier, north and northeast of Sedan.
This much may be stated without
making any disclosures that must be
regarded as harmful to the military In
terests. The allied nations are not
disuuieted by the massiveness and
swiftness of the German advance.
This had all been foreseen and pre-
pared for. If the Germans are defeat
ed upon the battle field that has been
selected for the combat, they will be
liable to attacks on both flanks.

HOLD UP BRIDGE
PLAN TO LOWER
Rate OF TAXES
County Commissioners Heed
Plea of People and Will
Not Replace North End
Structures.

The cry of the populace for lower
taxes will be needed by the county
commissioners who have decided on a
policy on the repairing of bridges.
1t has been decided to make only
emergency repairs next year and to
build no new bridges. The Tenth and
Twelfth street bridges will not be re-
placed until the following year. It is
estimated that the Tenth street
bridge would have cost $4,000 to $751;
900.
The commissioners will not drop the
matter of the Improvement of the two
bridges even temporarily but will con
tinue to Investigate plans for replac-
ing them so that after another year
everything will be in readiness to STRAIT
work
Meet August 20.
The commissioners will hold meet
ing Aug. 20 to check over the items on
the county financial statement which
Auditor Bowman now has in prepara
tion. Under no circumstances will this
be given out until the commissioners
have seen it, according to today's an.
nouncement.
The meeting Of the county council
to consider the tax rate will take place
Sept. 8. The council fixes all county
levies except the free gravel road rate
which is fixed by. the commissioners
Unofficially, this rate has been fixed
at nine cents. an increase of two
cents.
Advance payments of taxes for next
year to settle up estate and for other
reasons are being made at the rate
of 80 for the city ofsRichmond, max
ing twelve cent increase, on the
whole rate. The county, city. state
and school rates probably will remain
the same as last year but the contem
plated increase is in new improved
roads which are to be added this year
