GRABS BILL OFF
 DESK IN SENATE N
 BUT RusE FAILS
As hurst's Unfamiliarity With Rules Delays Vote
 On Prohibition

Washington, Dec. Eff Senator Ashurst of Arizona had been more familiar with the rules, the Senate yesterday might have passed the Shep- pard bill making the District of Co., lumbia dry. The Prohibitionists were outgeneralled by their opponents, and the bill will not be voted on until Jan. 3. Some of its friends fear it cannot be passed after the holidays.
 It was when Senator Ashurst, n>t realizing that he was imperilling a vote on the Prohibition Bill, got unanimous consent for consideration of a Miscellaneous Land Bill, that an anti Prohibition filibuster began. The vets claimed that the bill had been displaced before the Senate and they were supported by a ruling from the Chair.
 Senator Ashurst thereupon sought to withdraw the Land Bill. In the ab- sence of a better method, he stepped up to the desk and put the document in his pocket

LOTimer defense, when Lorimer
asked Dawes directly whether he
couldn't sign in spite of Jim Forgan's
attitude Of hostility, Dawes replied:
my God, no, not if Forgan takes
that position" Asked whether this
statement of the defense is true,
Dawes replied yesterday:
mot at all. never said anything
like that. l refused before Mr.. Lori
mer told me of Mr.. Forgan's atti-

On Oct q, 1912, the Dawes bank,
the Central Trust Co., took notes
from ten men of the Lorimer bank.
They were for $125,OOO each and
were the basis for a loan of
$1,25O,OOO. This cash the Central
Trust Co. brought from its vaults
into a room in its own building
where a bank examiner counted
it. The money was stuck back in
the vaults, the bank examiner wrote
his report that the LOrimer bank had
that amount of cash assets on hand,
and everything went lovely until hun
dreds of depOsitOrs were skinned of
their savings in the bank smash of
1914. The facts of the transaction
were told by Dawes in testimony yes

that at the time there was no reason

Compressor, hoist, pump, electric

order. Little is being done in the
mine while this surface equipment is
being installed, but when this is COM
pleted the development will be taken
up energetically under the immediate
direction of Rush ]. White. Incident
ally the East Caledonia company has
had an experience which illustrates the
comparative cost of motive powers. JJp
to this time gasoline has been used
for power to run the compressor and
steam for pumping. The cost averaged
about $500 per month. Electric power
will now do the work of both gaso-
line and steam at cost of $3.50 per
month.

PAVING CONTRACT.
The Contest Seems to Have Narrowed
Down to Few Companies.

Down to rev companies.
Starting out with 81 bids for paving
the streets of Wallace, the contest now
appears to be limited to three or four
companies, two of which are the Ore
gon Electric and Construction company
and the Warren Construction company
The present paving was done by the
last named company. The bid of the
Warren company is higher than the
Oregon company, and at the same time
the Oregon company states that it's
paving Is practically the same and in
every respect as good as the Warren
bitulithic. In order to satisfy them
selves as to the merits of the two, the
two companies are paying the expenses
of four counclmen and the city engin-
eer down to various towns in Oregon
to examine the work of the Oregon
Construction company and incidentally
that of the Warren company in Port
land. However there is no question
regarding the high quality of the War
rem paving, the point to be determined
being whether it is possible to get the
same quality for less money. The fol-
lowing councilmen accompanied by the
representatives of the paving compan-
les left Tuesday for Oregon: c. M,
Johnson George Gilmore, George Moi,
son and l.. c. Reeves; also d. NJ.
