prior to the passage Of the civil

The governor calls particular
attention to the status Of Ben
Taylor and Silas Howard, both
veteran employees OF the Salem
office and who would be deprived
of their pensions under the rul-
ing of the attorney general, and
asks McNary to take steps toward
rectifying the law so as to make
provision for these employees and
the thousands OF others OF their
same status.

Asylum Deaths
Not Traced to
Doses of Salts

The autopsy conducted BY
physicians at the state hospital
here into the deaths of Louise
Birkenstock and Ellen Oldham
patients at the hospital who died
within a few hours after taking
a dose of salts Saturday, has re-
vealed nothing definite, hospital
officials stated this morning. The
intestines Of both women were
found to be in a badly inflamed
condition but this condition has
not been traced to the salts. A
third patient who was also given
a dose of salts Saturday was in a
nauseated condition Sunday, but
physicians say that this condition
is not at all unusual.
The can of salts from which
the doses were administered to
the two women, was examined by
the hospital chemist who found
nothing unusual in its contents.
Salts are purchased by the barrel
for medicinal purposes at the hos
pital the supply lasting for many
months. Except for the recent
deaths of five children in a
Washington family following the
administration of salts nothing
unusual would have been thought
Of the two deaths according to
hospital physicians.
Louise Birkenstock who was %
years Of age was committed to the
bospitaI from Multnomah county
in 1919 and Ellen Oldham, 38,
was committed from Marion coun-
ty in 1920.

FARES DOUBLED

FOR 100000 RIDERS
Order Issued by Receivers
Virtually Divides the Lines
in Half.

More than 100, 900 passengers will
daily pay 20 cents carfare instead Of
10 cents if an order promulgated to-
day by the receivers for the Steinway
line of the New York and Queens
County Railroad is approved by the
Transit Commission. The order pro-
vides not only for second fare at
Woodside in either direction between
Manhattan and Long Island City and
Woodside, Winfield. Elmhurst, Coro-
ma, Flushing and College Point. but
also compels passengers to change
cars at Woodside. The present prac-
tice is to run cars through from Man
haitian to College Point for only a
five-cent fare. The order is to go into
effect at o'clock Monday morning.
Supreme Court Justice Cal!aghan in
Queens recently appointed S. w. Huff.
President of the Third Avenue Rail-
road Company. and Robert c. Price
of Brooklyn receivers for the Stein
way line. Their order virtually divides
the New York and Queens County
Railroad in half. The receivers will
operate, for a five-cent fare, all lines
in the o,d Long Island City section
to Woodside.
The Board of Estimate will be asked
to make a new and favorable contract
to provide for operation Of these cars
over the Queensborough Bridge to
Manhattan. William Morgan of the
Third Avenue Railroad Company will
be superintendent Of transportation for
the receivers.
The parent New York and Queens
Railroad Company will continue tC
operate all lines east of Woodside un-
der the present Superintendent OF

over their old runs at the old rate Of

waited extension, armed with COW bells,
rattles, whistles and signs, Kissed and
groaned and cat-called whenever the

made a point against the Transit
Commission.

The Mayor of Chicago, grayer,
stouter and more sophisticated looking
than when he ascended the steps of
City Hall seven years ago, wore to-
day a gray, cone pointed campaign
hat instead of the expansive black,
sombrero headgear he affected on his

While here, Mayor Thompson, ia
