the grand jury this afternoon by JUS
tice of the Peace Glen Unruh to ans
wer to a charge of being implicated
in the robbery on the night Of June

committed at Astoria, and his appear
ance is thus assured
When Louis Tebeau and Howard
Coffman ARE released from the state
penitentiary tomorrow they will be
Immediately arrested again and TAX
en- to the county Jail and held as wit
nesses against Wagner. Their bail has
been fixed at $3.50 each.
Tebeau and Coffman were arrested
for the burglary but were able to es-
tablish an. alibi, showing that they
were working at Portland ,shipyard
at the time the robbery was commit
ted. They were arrested, with Wagner
in the car, for speeding near Port
land. Wagner escaped in some near
by brush. Tebeau and Coffman then
placed all blame for the crime on
Wagner.
Several weeks later Wagner was
taken into custody at Astoria and was
committed to the penitentiary. Later
information that he was implicated
in the burglary at Silverton caused au-
thorities to bring this charge and
cause his arraignment today.

King was with the posse of eight
men which left Centralia Friday in an
effort to round up three men who
were stationed on Seminary Ridge, ov-
erlooking Centralfa, and were ordered.
1t is alleged. to pick off men in the
Armistice day parade from that van
tage point when firing began.
The posse, says King, approached to
within $50 yards of the cabin, when a
fusiliade of shots poured out upon
them. John Haney was shot through
the head and probably was instantly
killed. Kings hat was shot off but he
was not hurt.
Rescue Is Impossible.
Every effort was made by the rest
OF the posse to reach Haney but each
attempt was met by a volley of shots
which seemed to come not only from
the cabine but from behind nearby
trees. After several such attempts, the
posse decided to wait for more men
and more supplies.
No sound came from Haney after he
was hi. and he did not answer pre-
arranged whistle signal which King
used in an effort to attract his atten-
ton. s-&sz
The sody, says King, lies between
two large trees $50 yards from the

The president, 1t was learned,
directed that the administration
supporters should vote against
the resolution of ratification, y
which is now being prepared by
the senate sitting as committee OF
the whole and which contains the
Lodge reservations.
If it is defeated, Hitchcock will place
a substitute resolution of ratification
before the senate and II this is defeat
ed, he hopes for compromise.
Pigeonholing Likely.
However il the administration sena-
tors do not succeed in defeating the
first ratification the president will
pigeonhole the treaty.
He has the power to do this--sin,-
ply to lay the ratification aside and
ignore it.
Wilson evidently is taking active con
troll of the treaty fight as it enters it's
most critical phase.
Hitchcock said he found Wilson
much improved. He is standing pat
on his contention that the Lodge reser-
vations, especially the one qualifying
article 10. nullify the treaty. Appar-
emily he is proceeding in the theory
that the opposition will not dare kill
the whole peace settlement by refusing
to let more ratifications resolutions be
introduced after the first one is re-
jected.
Immediately after the conference,
Hitchcock hurried back to the capitol
to make his report to other senators.

that this action was due to come up

the logical time to take such action is
said to have halted the proceedings

only held on to crafty the faith placed
in him by citizens. He said that, he had
been offered several better positions
paying a greater salary, but with the
interests of Salem at heart has always
declined them.
1t is expected that formal action will
be taken by the council tonight to re-
move Patrolman Ganiard and Traffic
Officer Moffitt from the force. Mof-
fit, it Is understood, has already ar
ranged to work for Portland.
