EFFORT TO REMOVE
POLICE MAY Be MADE

1t is almost certain that when the
city dads congregate in the council
chambers this evening they will take
an inventory of the police department
and discuss some plans for laying off
few Of the cops and trying few
new samples. Wilbur Gaines, the newly
appointed officer is at loss to know
why Councilman Minton is so anxious
to put him off the force and declares
that Councilman Jones Is another one
who is using a little insignificant knifs
on him.
II is current rumor today that both
Gaines and Sanders will feel the bite
Of the faction which is opposing their
appointments on the grounds that neither
have been residents here continuously
for three years. It is also said that
in the event these two policemen are
attacked on these grounds, officer
Fisher, the third new man appointed,
viii be compelled to resign for the
same reason. Friends Of Gaines and
Sanders declare that Fisher has not
maintained his residence in this city
having been east Of the mountains for
over year, accompanied by his wife.

WORLDS LARGEST
ARMORY NEARLY DONE
UNITED PRESS LEASED wmn.s

Champaign, ILL.,, Jan. 26,-The big
gest armory building in the world-Chi-
cagoans gasp when you tell them the
Coliseum would be lost in its single
drill room being built by the Uni
versity of Illinois here today stands
nearly completed. It's cost is above
$250,OO0, aud it will accommodate more
than 1000 cadets in maneuvers.
The structure is unique in other re-
speets than its size. 1t has no real
walls. The roof extends four feet into
the ground and rests on concrete and
steel bases. The building is a giant
half cylinder. The whole framework
consists of forty steel arches, placed
ten feet apart, each 100 feet high in
the center and spanning 200 feet Of
ground. This building is 200 by 400
feet and has floor space of 10000
square feet without an obstructing in
terror pillar. This is to be supplemented
by officers and equipment rooms at
the sides.
That the building has not been plan.
ned on too large scale is shown by
tho fact that the university squad al
ready consists of 100 cadets.
The immense armory has attracted
much attention from other universities.
The Minnesota and Ohio state universi-
ties have sent delegates to inspect IT,
and others have sent inquiries about its
plans. II is reported that the Seventh
Regiment of New York City will have
a larger armory, plans for which have
not yet been drawn.

WILLAMETTE BOYS ARE
DEFEATED IN PORTLAND
Score Of 1912 Recorded in Basketball
Contest, After Willamette Gets
First Half 7-6.
MULTNoMAH CENTER is
STAR RoUGHNECK OF GAME
Intentionally Knocks Over Two Differ
ent Willamette Men, But Is AL
lowed to Play Out Game.

Willamette University's basketball
team was defeated by the Multnomah
club of Portland in game played on
the club floor Saturday evening, the
final score being 90 to 12.
During the first half the varsity
boys seemed to have the situation un-
der control, the score at the end of the
first period being to 6 in favor Of
Willamette.
The second half the clubmen seemed
to strike new pace, and the varsity
was unable to keep up, The victory
was clearly due to superior speed on
the part Of the clubmen.
Raymond McRae, former member Of
Willamette's football, basketball and
baseball team, and now one of the most
popular athletes at the Multnomah club
refereed the game. "Mac" has been
officiating at many Of the intercolle-
giate contests in the Northwest con-
ference this season, and is establishing
an enviable record.
Good sportsmanship on the part of
Willamette allowed Darling, the big
Multnomah center to continue in the
contest after he had Intentionally
knocked over two different Willamette
men after the fashion employed by
prize fighters in dealing knock out
blows. His work throughout the even.
ing was more on the order Of prize
fighter or football player than Of a
skilled basket ball player and 1t was
due to his rough work, rather than his
superior skill, that several points were
annexed to the clubmen g score. The
lineup:
Multnomah--R -Rossman and Sharp, for
wards; Darling, center; Allen and
Toomey, guards.

"All employees Of the state, with the
exception of heads Of departments, will
be affected by the decision of the su.
preme court in the case involving the
eight-hour law against the state board
of control," " declared Labor Commits
sioner Hoff today. "The impression
prevails that the case only .eIates to

is mistake, and if the court sustains
my contentious, clerks, stenographers,
etc, in all state departments from that

eight hours daily, or As hours weekly.
Mr.. Hoff construes the opinion of tbs
supreme court in the case in which
farm hands ana engineers at the state
insane asylum were the complainants
as covering all employees Of the state.
However, another case was instituted
in order that there may be no doubt

Portland, Ore, Jan 26.-1n John Lyt-
le, under Arrest in Grand Island, Neb.,
for criminal assault upon a yourg girl,
which he has confessed, Detective Ser
geants Day and Hyde believe that they
at last caught the murderer of five-year
old Barbara Holman and cleared up
a mystery which has baffled the police
since March, 1911.
Mrs. Bertha Nelson, proprietor of
the rooming house at 1O7 Russell street,
where the Holman girl was murdered,
when she saw the picture of Lytle last
night partially identified him. She said
that he looked much like the man who
rented from her March IA, 1911, the
room in which the mutilated body of
the girl was later found.
Immediately following the discovery
of the crime in 1911, the police issued
circulars which were sent to all cities
of the Western Hemisphere. 1t was
in answer to this circular that Gustav
Sieyers, sheriff of Hall county, Neb.
wrote concerning Lytle, who is in jail
there.

in answer to this circular that Gustav
Sieyers, sheriff of Hall county, Neb.,
wrote concerning Lytle, who is in Jail
there.
Lynching Is Averted.
Lytle was the central figure of a
near-lynching in Grand Island, when, on
September 90, 1913, he attempted to
assault an eight.year-old girl. Her
cries aroused neighbors, and they sur
rounded the place of the assault, bu5
he managed to escape. He was caugh
the next day. A mob quickly formed,
and an attempt was pade to lynch him,
but the efforts of the police restrained
the mob.
Both John Lytle and his brother,
george, were in and about Portland at
the time of the Holman murder. John
admitted to the Grand Island officers
that he and his brother were engaged
in bricklaying in Oregon City in March
1911, when the murder occurred, and
John admitted that he knew some de-
tails Of the murder. Both have been
convicted of criminal attack before, ac.
cOrding to information sent by tha
Grand Island officers.

and Hyde, next to Mrs. Nelson IS iden
