VANDALS LOSE TO
OREGON FIVE SAT.
FAIL TO MEASURE UP TO EXPEC-
TAMONS, ALLOWING EUGENE
TEAM TO GAIN EARLY LEAD

Eugene, Ore-The University OF
Oregon Saturday evening handed the
Idaho basketball team their second
Pacific Coast conference defeat this
season, winning their scheduled game
here 40 to 35.
The Idaho players were beaten
during the first half, when Oregon
rolled up an invincible lead through
the fast work OF her forwards and the
comparative ease with which they
slipped past the Idaho guards. The
Vandals failed to show as was ex-
pected of them, and were plainly not
playing up to their standard of a
year ago.
Not until the second period did the
Gem Staters display any basketball
ability, when during the last ten
minutes they staged valiant rally
too late to be effective, however.
Latham and Fox were the high
point men of the game, each making
IS points for their team.
The Idaho five plays the Oregon
Agricultural College quintet tonight,
at Corvallis. The o. A. c. team is
rated as one of the most powerful
basketball aggregations on the coast,
and Idaho supporters are dubious
over the outcome.

MOSCOW FIRM SHIPS LARGE
QUANTITY OF BRICK TO COAST

The Moscow Fire Brick & Clay Pro-
ducts company shipped five cars of
friedrich to coast points last week
and three cars this week. This, with
shipments to various Inland Empire
points, practically exhausts the sup
ply of friedrich until another kiln,
which has been set, is burned. The
company is also shipping consider
able common brick to Inland En-
pire points, according to H. B. Mickey.
the secretary.
There is heavy coast demand for
the friedrich, and it is believed that
this will continue, owing to the ex-
cellent quality of the product of the
plant.

leCAL seed COMPANY
ISSUES Big CATALOG

The annual catalogue for the Wash
burn & Wilson Seed company of this
city, is being issued this week from
the Moscow Publishing company
presses. The catalogue contains 40
pages besides the cover, and 10000
COPIES are being issued. This is said
to be double the number of cata-
logues issued by any other seed firm
in the state of Idaho, and is twice
the number issued by the local firm
last season. The catalogue is COM
plete in every respect and, in itself,
mirrors the rapid growth of the COM
pany.
The Washburn & Wilson Seed COM
pany. established but few years
ago, has developed into one of the
large seed concerns Of the west, and
there is every reason to believe that
the business is just iii its infancy.
Thousands of dollars are paid annu-
ally to Latah county farmers for seed,
which is shipped to all parts of the
west
The catalogues, according to Her
man Wilson, manager Of the COM
pany, will be distributed principally
in Idaho, Washington Montana, and
Oregon

GIGANTIC CHURCH
COMBINATION PLAN
TWO METHODIST BRANCHES MAY
BE UNIFIED-WOULD HAVE
2O,000,000 MEMBERS.

/ Chicago-(A. P.)-Bishop F. j. Nc
Connell, of Pittsburgh, in Chicago,
declared that the plan of unification
adopted at Cincinnati by the Methodist
Episcopal church and the Methodist
church, South, was the greatest step
toward union of the two churches
tlat had been taken in the last ten
years.
The joint committee appointed at the
meeting of the unification commission
of the two churches at Cincinnati
was named to make suggestions as to.
the organization of the general con-
ference called for in the unification
document. This committee will meet
in st. Louis on March 27 to formulate
it's suggestions.
The resolutions adopted were as
follows:
Whereas, we hold that the Metho-
dist-Episcopal church and the Metho-
dist-Episcopal church, South, are es-
sentially one church, one in origin, in
spirit, in belief, in policy, in ministry
and in purpose, and believing that
they should become one in name, in
ritual, in terms of membership, in ad-
ministrative activities and bodies in
the home and foreign field, and in
order that this essential unity may be-
come effective, the following plan Of
union is presented for adoption by
the processes required in each church.
That a church be organized by
uniting the Methodist-Episcopa
church, and the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, under a constitution
with a general conference and two
jurisdictional conferences.
The name of the church shall be
Ito be determined.)
Jurisdiction:
Jurisdiction No. 1 shall be compos-
ed of those annual conferences in
America and various mission fields
now constituting the Methodist-Epis
copal church.
Jurisdiction No. 2 shall be COM
posed of the annual conferences in
America and the various mission
fields now constituting the Methodist
church, South
Each jurisdiction shall have jur-
isdictional conference with the full
powers now possessed by the general
conferences of the two respective
churches except insofar as those pow
ers may be limited by the constitu-
ion of the general conference herein
after provided for and by such pow
ers as may be delegated to the gen.
sral conference by the .jurisdictiona1
conferences from time to time"
Unification of the two churches,
when accomplished, it was said, will
fleet combined church population
# twenty million persons.

Five INDICTED FOR
WAR CONTRACT deal
Government Said to Have Lost
100000 Through Collision

New York, Aug. 24.-Fraud in the
sale of surplus government war sup
plies through manipulation of con-
tracts and collusive bidding Is charged
in three indictments returned yester-
day by the Federal Grand Jury against
Col. Fauncelot M. Purcell. retired,
former chief Of the Surplus Property
Divisions of the United States Army,
| and four others.
The government is alleged to have
lost about 100000 in these sales.
The merchandise included large guam
titles of duck and other fabrics, sad
dies harnesses and other equipment.
Morris Streusand, special Assistant
United States Attorney, and his as
sistants have been at work more than
| year gathering evidence. They
searched through $4,000 war con-
tracts before they hit the trail which
led to these indictments. Rumors that
frauds existed have been common for
three years, but it required the per-
sistence of government prosecutors
digging through great files of con-
tracts to put the charges into the
form of indictments.
In their search the officials uncover
ed other big frauds, 1t Is said, and the
evidence of these will be presented to
a federal grand jury in September. II
the charges are proven one general
and three colonies in the army during
the war and heads of twelve large
textile concerns in New York will be
convicted.
The officials say the case they will
present against the sixteen Is stronger
than that on which the five indict-
ments were returned yesterday. The
evidence in the second proceeding Is
all in hand 1t was ANNOUNCED, and
ready for presentation as soon as the
new jury is sworn. The loss to the gov
eminent in these transactions will be
shown to be 100000 at least, 1t was
stated.
Besides Col. Purcell those indicted
yesterday are

nam Building. at 1493 Broadway. be-
tween Forty-third and Forty-fourth
