BIC SEARCH FOR l RANSOM MONEY

Butte, Mont, June 12.-(UP)- The descendants of the pioneers of '49 who searched the hills for gold deployed to-day over these same hills in quest of hidden wealth. The object of the search was some $S5,- 900 of the $200,O00 ransom paid for the return of George Weyer- haeuser. Belief was general that William Mahan, one of the kid napers, had secreted the loot in some canyon. Mahan was supposed to have received $100,000 of the ransom. Of this sum $15,555 was found in his automobile which he abandoned here Sunday.
 Enterprising citizens reasoned that if the remainder of the money wasn't in the, car, Mahan must have hidden 1t. This belief was strengthened when federal agents confessed kidnaper, had buried $90,7O0 of the ransom in canyon near Salt Lake City.
 The 1895 prospcctors searched everywhere-in abandoned mine shafts, in old prospecting holes, ramshackle buildings and in can- yons, So far no strikes" were re- ported.
 Interest dwindled in the quest when it was explained that even if someone found the ransom, he could not spend it.

Long took the floor after the senate had refused, 36 to A, to table a motion to reconsider the vote by which it yesterday adopted the Gore amendment to make gov- ernment employees earning s4,000 or more subject to senate confirma- tion.
 This opened the way for recon- sideration of the amendment, which administration leaders were anxious to delete.
 Ready to. Talk
 Long gave every evidence of an intention to talk at length. He took more than usual pains to re- tain the floor. He refused to yield for more than a question even when barbed remarks that he tossed at the opposition brought other members to their feet.
 The galleries were profuse with color as throngs of Shriners took in the show. All of standing space was taken.

MOTOR PATROL
 OF POLICE DEPT
 TAKEN FOR RIDE
Commissioner Minor Told Them to Get Busy or
 Lose Their Jobs

Waterbury's police motor patrol men were taken for a decidedly ungentle ride" at the much her. aided Secret" meeting in the drill room at headquarters yesterday af- ternoon, with personnel of the prowl car division being given plain-spoken warnings that they'll be back swinging nightsticks and getting blisters on their feet if they don't get down and stay down to business seriously during their eight hours of daily duty.
 The riding" was done princi- pally by Commissioner Harry Minor, chairman of the police board, with Sergeant William Dug gan. officer in charge of the motor patrol, taking time for a few re- marks along the same line as Con- missioner Minors. The commis- sioner didn't pull any of his punches, coming out forthrightly with the charge that the boys have been loafing on the job.
 Motor PatroImcn silent
 With such being the substance o1 sAAS AhSStAhS yCSlSLudyb bAClc was little wonder that the motor pa- trolmen didn't see fit to herald to the public what had happened. They probably won't even yet ad- init they were the target for some very uncomplimentary remarks at the special gathering.
 The motor patrolmen were told that they were mixing business with pleasure, that they were mix ing duties with social engagements. and that their cars had been seen too often parked in the wrong places. Commissioner Minor told them that the complaints had come to the mayor. to Superintendent Joseph H. Mclean and to members of the police board, and he hinted that the. situation was known to everyone except the motor patrol men themselves.

 Butte, Montana

Butte, Mont, June 12.-(UP)- Still convinced that William Ma han, one of the kidnapers of g. year old George Weyerhaeuser, is in the vicinity of Butte, police and an augmented force of federal agents pressed a widespread hunt to-day.
 Only Mahan's arrest prevents a complete clean up of the crime, agents said. He is believed to have $89,445 of the $200,000 J. P. Weyerhaeuser paid for the release of his son. The remainder either has been recovered or accounted for in the confession of Harmon Wa ley, his accomplice in custody in Salt Lake City.
 Some authorities believed Ma han eluded the net spread for him after he was sighted here Sunday and, in escaping, abandoned his automobile containing $15.000 of the spells. It was believed possi-
