Centralia, Wash, Nov 1s-Bert Bland, IL W. w. fugitive and sus- pected slayer of Lieut.. Warren O Grimm, one of the four American legion paraders killed here Armis- tice Day, was taken without fight late today by Sheriff John Berry and a company of deputies. Bland is in the county jail at Chehalis.
 According to Sheriff Berry, Bland was found in cabin 12 miles north west of Independence and is suppos- ed to have taken refuge there yes terday after he was seen near Rochester and Kelsing Junction, when he was driven forth to seek food.
 Bland was armed, it is understood, and had plentiful supply of car tridges. After the trail from Ro- chester had been traced, Sheriff Ber- ry gathered his posse and drove with two automobile loads of armed depu- ties to the shack. The shack was surrounded from all sides and rifles were levelled at the door.
 At the call to surrender, Bland emerged, his hands held high above his head.
 Posses in the mountainous region northeast of here where I. w. w. fugitives still are believed to be in hiding, sought for the Armistice Day murderers, have been to large ex- tent withdrawn. according to Lieut.. Frank Van Oliver, in charge of the searching parties.
 But the search for the two or three radicals yet at large and who have been accused of participating in the killing of the four ex-service men, has not been abandoned. It will be concentrated with a smaller number of men in the field, that ac- cidental shooting of possemen such as the fate that overlook John Ha- ney, volunteer from the Tenino dis trict, may not happen. it was said.
 The sorrowful sequel to the futile death of Haney, who was slain last Saturday in the mistaken skirmish between two squads of deputies at Hunters Cabin. 23 miles northeast of here, came this afternoon when Coroner Livingston held the inquest. The verdict was that Haney came to his death by the rifle fire of other deputies after he had failed to re- spond to signals previously arraign- cd. and had been mistaken for an I. w. w. fugitive.

WAGES FOR SHEEP HERDERS

Meetings of flockmasters in western
states have been held to fix standard
wages for herders and camp tenders
and definite rate for shearing. The
wage suggested for herders is $75i
and $50 is proposed for camp ten
ders. This includes board in each
case.
Within the last three years the pay
of this class of help has advanced
from $50 and $40 month, respective
ly, as high as 800 and 500 an month
and board during the past season.
The shearing figure which the wool
growers will try to make standard is
1914 cents head when board is fur
nished and ID cents head when the
shearer boards himself.
The importan fact is rapid declines
in the wool market Abnormal pro-
ductioin costs can injure the wool in
dustry as well as any other.
