WONDERFUL POWER FOR ONE MON
J. C. Stubbs, Who Has Just Been Ap
pointed Traffic Manager of the
Harriman i.aiivoaa Interests
Explains the System to
Be Introduced.
(By Associated Press.)
San Francisco, June 20.—J. t\ Stubbs,
Vice president of the Southern Pacific
company, whose appointment as traffic
manager of the vast system of railroads
controlled by the Harriman interests
vas announced from Chicago yesterday,
lias arrived in this city.
In speaking of the innovation to be
introduced in railroad methods by the
syndicate by which he has just been ap
pointed. Mr. Stubbs stated that Mr. Har
riman has been considering the question
of diversion of traffic for a long time,
and has evolved a plan which ought to
accomplish the heretofore impossible
'task of harmonizing the interests of the
several Harriman roads.
As Mr. Stubbs puts it. it is a plan to
Ibring about a unification of interests
With a reduction of friction and the
elimination of unnecessary competition
{Without consolidating the properties
V-nder one management.
Vnder this plan one man is to have
>entire charge of the traffic of the sev
eral corporations, and in order to ef
fectually divorce the traffic from the
(other affairs of the road this official
(will report direct to the board.
This position of power and responsibil
ity, comparable to no other in the hi.3
ftory of railroading, was offered to Mr.
Stubbs, and he accepted. The position
Is an absolutely new one in railroading,

WICKLESS
Blue Flame
OIL STOVE
It will do any cooking that can be done on any
kind of a stove. It is clean, quick, convenient, and
cool for the cook. It uses the cheapest fuel—ker
osene—but without wicks and without the least
danger or odor. It does better cooking than a coal
range, with the convenience of a
gas range, at a fraction of the cost
of either. Made
in various sizes,
from one burner
up. If your deal
er does not have
them write to the
nearest agency of
CONTINENTAL OIL
COMPANY
and Mr. Stubbs does not even know whet
title will be bestowed upon him.
"In a word," says Mr. Stubbs, "I am
to be placed in entire charge of the
traffic of the Southern Pacific, the Union
Pacific, the Oregon Railroad and Navi
gation company and the Oregon Short
l.ine, and i will report to the board of
directors of the several companies. That
means that 1 am to report direct to Sir.
Harriman.
"Each company lias its board of direc
tors, and euch board of directors has an
executive committee, presided over by
a chairman. When the board of diree
tors is in session it is supreme, and
when the board is not in session and
the executive committee is holding a
meeting, the executive committee is su
preme. When the executive committee
is not in session the chairman of the
executive committee runs things."
Mr. Stubbs said the new arrangement
respecting himself was a complete sur
prise to the presidents of the Southern
Pacific and the Union Pacific, as it was
to other railroad men in the country,
who were not prepared to see such a
revolution in the methods of conserva
tive railroad corporations.
Mr. Stubbs said that when he left Chi
cago a plan was being perfected to place
the traffic of the Northern Pacific, the
Great Northern and the Burlington tn
the hands of Darius Miller, at present
second vice president of the Great
Northern, and that there would in all
probability be brought about a central
ization in the management of the great
lines, including the Missouri Pacific and
the Texas & Rio Grande lines.

BALLOT BILL FOR
REFORM DEFEATED.
Harrisburg, Pa., June 20.—The sénats
today defeated the ballot reform bill
known as the Guffey bill.
Although the measure bears the name
of the democratic national committee
man for this state and was introduced
by Senator Cochran, democratic leader,
the democrats voted solidly against the
bill because of changes made in commit
tee majority.
These, they claim, destroyed the re
form features of the measure.

FOR RENT— NICELY FURNISHED
rooms, single or en suite, also rooms

Grafters Who Worked Butte
Arrested In San Francisco
H. H. Mamlock and Mrs. K. C. Greg
ory Accused of Swindling Golden
Gate City People—WiUiam H.
Doneghy- the Principal, at
Large—Sold Fake Chari
ity Tickets.
Exposure and arrests have followed
the workings of William H. Doneghy,
alias Donnelly, alias Donehy, and his
women confederates in their professional
charity "grafting" schemes with whien
they have been coining money through
out the western country. Doneghy and
his friends have been at work in Cali
fornia for the past few months. They
carried their wholesale robbery to such
an extent that the officials of San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles were Informed of
the scheme by a morning paper of the
coast metropolis, and matters took dubi
ous for the workers for "sweet charity's
sake."
The plan of operation of the Doneghy
gang is well known throughout the
northwest, and Montana towns did not
escape the sharp practice of the smooth
money-makers.
Several months ago Doneghy, attired
in a long frock coat, patent leather
shoes. Immaculate linen, modest necktie
and high silk hat. arrived in Butte and
took quarters at one of the ' leading
hotels. He was soon followed by two ele
gantly dressed women. They gave their
names as Miss Helen Barnes and Miss
Josle Haines. A few days later Miss
Deitweller and Miss Fleming were ac
companied Into Butte by William Green
leaf. The entire troupe were connected
with Doneghy and his scheme.
Two of the women and Greenteaf left
for another part of the state to com
mence operations, while their leader re
mained in Butte, assisted by the other
women.
It was soon given out by Doneghy
that his life and those of his associates
were devoted to charity, and that It
was their intention to give a series of
entertainments in Butte for benevolent
societies and charitable institutions.
The women, carrying religious books
under their arms and with sanctimonious
looks covering their handsome counte
nances, canvassed the town with tickets.
Business houses, offices and stores were
visited by the women, and their work as
sumed large proportions. No one could
withstand those beautiful women whose
hearts were "wrapped up in the work of
God." Their smiles and winning man
ners made friends everywhere.
Dollar after dollar was paid over for
little slips of pasteboard which called
for admission to an entertainment to
be given at a future date. The time for
the charity affair drew near, and the
talk concerning it ceased to some extent,
and finally died out altogether. The
principal reason for the waning of in
terest in the charity work was caused
by the fact that those nice women were
not in evidence.
Doneghy and his confederates had
suddenly dropped out from sight. Their
pleading talk for aid for "sweet charity"
was no longer heard, and the thousands
who bought tickets realized that they
had been taken in.
The "grafters" worked their way west
ward not overlooking a single good siz
ed town on their way. Salt Lake City
and Ogden citizens put up their little
donations for charity and finally the
schemers reached the coast. Here
Doneghy went to work with all the zeal
his fertile and mis-direeted brain could
muster.
Doneghy was preceded into San Fran
cisco by Miss Helen Barnes who seem
ed to be the leader among the women.
A number of concerts were given in the
city and then the party left for Los An
geles, taking along a few recruits for
their work from San Francisco. Miss
Chase and Miss Haines left Doneghy In
Los Angeles, and went to London
