THE MORNING OREG0XIAX, MONDAY, MAY , iwj. CANDIDATES REST FROM CAMPAIGN Coffey Denies Rumor That He Will Run Independently for Mayor. CALLS IT"SMAkL POLITICS" Interest Now Centers in Coining Bat tle Between Devlin and Lane. Zimmerman Renews Pledge to Support the Party Nominee. John B. Coffey will not come out as an independent candidate. This statement he made yesterday when asked what his future plans would be. and if there was any truth in the rumors that were out several days before the primaries. Coffey characterized the report that he would come out as an Independent can didate, if defeated at the primaries, as 'small politics," and said that in his opinion, those who were responsible for the circulation of the story have greatly lessened the chance for success of the Republican party for victory in the June election. Coffey did not subscribe to the pledge demanded of the Republican candidates by the Republican City Central Commit tee, and It was not necessary for him to state whether he would support the nom inee for Mayor. L. Zimmerman did. how ever, and he said' yesterday that he had (riven his promise not only to the Cen tral Committee, but also In a personal letter to Thomas C. Devlin, and that he intended to keep that promise. Neither Coffey nor Zimmerman were suffering an great disappointment at their defeat. They took the result of the primaries philosophically, and said now that the campaign was over, they would turn their attention again to their business, which they had neglected during the past month. Statement of Coffey. In speaking of his defeat Coffey said: 'Very small politics were re-sorted to in this campaign, and I am of the opinion that the gentlemen who were responsible for it, in their eagerness for success, have greatly Impaired the chances of the Republican party for victory on June 3. "I desire to thank my friends and sup porters, one and all, for their confidence and loyalty. At this time I wLsh to correct false reports made prior to the primaries, by stating that I will not run as an independent candidate for Mayor. Blames Liquor Interests. Zimmerman placed the blame for his defeat at the hands of the liquor in terests. He said that they were lined up against him because he advocated the closing of the saloons from 1 o'clock Sunday morning until 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon. -The liquor interests, in spite of their repeated statements that they were not going to take any part in the campaign, were largely responsible for my defeat, he said. "The vote that was polled for me was only mv personal following. The liquor people were with the organization and together with the Municipal Associa tion voted for Devlin. They fought me because I suggested some restrictions REPUBLICAN VOTE FOR WARD COUN CILMEN BY PRECINCTS. Flritt Ward. PRECINCT. & T 2 - !- 7" 32 79 37 I V .

Only a few of those who have passed through the battle which has been waged for the past 30 days were about, but those who were congregated at the cigar stores and talked politics. One topic of the gossip was the victory of 0ver ueorge rl. Thomas. . ah 01 me re publicans who discussed the outcome of the primaries foresaw in the nomination of Lane, a most formidable opponent for Devlin, the Republican nominee. Discuss Lane's Victory. Some of the political wisacres tried to explain Lane's victory by saying that it was a "frame up" of the Thomas ele ment. Just to force the Democratic nom ination upon him. because they knew that he would come out as an independent candidate, and then after making him take the nomination, knife him at the general election. While It Is well known that a number of Democratic wheel horses, who were apparently lined up with Thomas were exceedingly busy during the last few days of the primary campaign, urging the party voters to write in Lane's name, nevertheless, the majority of the Lane forces were work ing just as hard for the nomination of Lane. The first Intimation that the Demo crats would be asked to write Lane's name on the ballot came through an article that was printed in The Oregonian April 26. There is no doubt that the Lane followers had been quietly at work on this scheme ever, since Chairman Thomas intimated to Lane that unless he would place himself in the hands of those who were in charge gf the Demo cratic County Central Committee he would not be an acceptable candidate. Evidently it was the Intention of those who were framing up such a movement in behalf of the Mayor to keep the mat ter quiet until the eve of the primaries. Nothing was printed about the Lane movement that was on foot until a couple of days before the primaries. Thomas read The Oregonian story and he realized at once that his candidacy was in danger, for in a speech delivered at the Selling-Hlrsch hall, he said that If the Democrats showed by their vote at the polls that they wanted Lane and not himself, he would nromise Mayor Lane, if defeated, that he would support him, and that If Lane was defeated he wanted the Mayor to come out,, and make the same declaration in his behalf. Thomas, by his statement in yesterday's paper. Intends to keep his part of the bargain. GRAFT IN KANSAS CITY Investigation to Begin, With Gov ernor Folk Conducting. KANSAS CITT, Mo., May 5. Tomorrow morning the Board of Police Commis sioners will begin their promised investi gation of charges of police corruption. The probable advent .in Kansas City within the next week or so of Governor Folk, who has practically said he would come here and take a hand personally in the investigation, gives promise of sensational, disclosures. For a long time allegations have been made that graft was commonly prac ticed. It has been charged that It extended all the way from the protection of petty criminais to the covering up. for a con sideration, of the graver crimes of mur ders, and dangerous crooks shielded, and appointments made at the behest of cer tain factions to pay political debts. Chief of Police Hayes has repeatedly said that he courted an Investigation of his de partment, and he has offered to give the Governor and the Police commissioners all aid at his command.

LOCAL THEATERS TO CLOSE Ml Season at Baker and Empire Will End Earlier Than ' Usual. FORM NEW CORPORATION Business Changes Demand Reorgani zation of Company Owning Two Playhouses Fact Kxplalns An nouncement of Management. The regular season at both the Baker and Ernpire Theaters will close on June 1 and both these popular playhouses will probably be dark until Fall. Notices to this effect were posted on the stages of both theaters last night for the informa tion of members of the two stock com panies. June 1 has been from time im memorial the date for closing the thea trical season In most of the cities of the country, although in Portland the cus tom has not always been observed. Both t hewers have enjoyed the greatest de gree of prosperity in their history during the past eight months and would proba bly continue to do a thriving business during the Summer months hut certain business changes have determined the management to close promptly on the first of next month. A reorganization of the Baker Theater Corporation which controls both the Baker and Empire is made necessary on account of the withdrawal of John Sam polis from the company. Mr. Sainpolis, who has been treasurer and one of the principal stockholders, recently disposed of his interest to George L. Baker and severed all connection with local theatri cal affairs. He has gone to Boston, where he will have a stock company of which Lillian Lawrence will be lead ing woman. Miss Lawrence, accompa nied by her daughter, Ethel Terry, left yesterday for Boston where she will re sume acting on May IS. In order to pettle up all the affairs of the present corporation and effect the reorganization of another it was decided to close the season on the date named. All the other stockholders will partici pate in the reorganization of the new Baker Theater corporation. Councilman George L. Baker wi'l continue as gen eral manager and will have a larger in terest than ever before. Shortly after1 the city election Mr. Baker .will ask for a leave of absence from his dut.es as Councilman for a short period and will go to New York for the purpose of securing new plays and making other arrangements for next season. It Is announced that there will be no change in policy. The Baker will continue as a high class stock house and the Stair & Havlin attractions will be played at the Empire as formerly. No doubt a .number of the favorites of the Baker Company will be retained next year but as yet not any of the members of either company announce their future plans. TOOK TOLL FROM POLICE rOLITICIAXS GOT TRIBUTE FOR CAMPAIGN FUNDS. Civil Service Laws or City Have Been Abused for Years Will Put Collins on Trial. CHICAGO. May 5. That the City of Chicago has for years been violating the civil service law was brought to the light by the investigation of the police depart ment, which resulted yesterday in indict ments being returned against four city officers and two detectives under ex Mayor Dunne's administration. The investigation began ten days ago, following charges made during the recent Mayoralty campaign that ex-Chief of Po lice Collins had used his department to further the interests of Dunne by asking and receiving money from members of the police force in support of the Democratic candidate. During the investigation inspectors, cap tains and patrolmen testified that as far hack as they could remember they had been assessed a certain amount for cam paign purposes at each city election, no matter which party was in power. Ac cording to the Inspectors who testified before the Civil Service Commission it was not compulsory to subscribe to this fund, still the impression always pre vailed throughout the department that it was for the best Interests of everybody in the department to comply. According to testimony submitted, in which four of the indictments were re turned, records of the police department had been mutilated and destroyed; police officers had been used for political ends while being paid by the city to perform police duty, and that the persons Indicted had been guilty of levying assessments on city employes, together with solicit ing and receiving bribes from saloon- keepers. The penalty for each offense is the payment of a fine not exceeding 2000 or imprisonment in the penitentiary. The grand jury in its report says: "We find indications of corruption and graft on the part of patrolmen and offi cers that lead us to suggest that these matters, which we have been unable to investigate thoroughly on account of the lack of time, be fully gone into by the next grand jury. "The flagrant violation of the civil service laws by the police of this city shows the necessity Cor vicilance on the part of the Civil Service Boards to pre vent similar abuses by their departments of the county and city government under civil service regulations."- ' Preparations for the trial of an ex Superintendent of the Chicago Police De partment as soon as possible will be made by State's Attorney Healey. The State's Attorney said tonight that he believed Collins could be placed on trial by June 1. The other cases will not be taken up until Fall.

A. men's meeting yesterday afternoon on the "Mountains of Switzerland as Compared With the Mountains of the Pacific Northwest." Mr. Dummett. who is a member of the Ma zamas, told of the heights he and his Mazama friends had scaled, and showed the great ice fields of the Alpsvwith lit tle huts and cultivated fields scattered over the mountainside to the snow line. Speaking of some of his trips he said: "Mountain climbing in Europe has been xnajiA rm'h ciar- Loam in Luis cmintx yet there is no scenery possessing more grandeur or beauty than that to be found in Oregon, W ashington and Alaska. In viewing the gorges of the old country the traveler walks in on a fine board walk, in ascending the mountains he either rides on the cog railway or on a ponyto within a short distance of the summit. "The waterfalls along the Columbia River are fully as beautiful as any of those you find In Switzerland. I don't think I saw a more beautiful prospect while I was in Switzerland than I ob tained from the summit of the hills near your city, to which the trolley line now runs. I would say to you, see Switzer land, but see America first.' Following the lecture Professor Will iam M. Wilder told some incidents in the Xxte of Evan Roberts, the leader of great revival meetings in Wales. In making the usual announcements Secretary Stone said that it is planned to change the order of the men's Sunday afternoon meetings and to go out in the open air In 'groups of not more than 20 for Bible study. He advised the men Ho "get into a good bunch." LAUNCHING FOR TUESDAY Steamer J. X. Teal Will Be Chris tened on May 7. The steamer J. N.

New York. 4 Ilk tlie.- discussion that followed mo tion to accept the committee's report, a delegate charged that the President had evaded the issue. This called forth a response from Delegate Coakley. The lat ter said that the committee had con sidered the interview, and that it was not up to the President to prove that there had been a miscarriage of justice, but to those defending Moyer and Haywood. After several delegates had been heard it was decided to forward a copy of the letter to counsel for the indicted labor leaders and let them submit to President Roosevelt any evidence that there might have been a miscarriage of justice in he Moyer, Haywood and Pettibone -!ase from Colorado to Idaho. f-.J- In the course of his remarks Mr. Ctak ley said : ' ; "If we ask a man to give us a square deal, let us give him a square deal. too. This letter is not an evasion. It is right to the point and shows that the President more than 12 months ago intended to see that Moyer' and Haywood got a square deal, no matter what he thought about them personally. "Some of the delegates to this body thought it was the duty of the committee to attack the President. Consequently they still believe we did not do our full duty. There are men here who are not sincere in their sympathy for Moyer and Haywood. They are simply trying to use this case to advertise their propaganda. It is high time that organized labor began to find out where it belongs." Only one other delegate attacked the President, and he was arrested quickly by Samuel Eebus of the Newspaper Delivery Union and a member of the Actors' Pro tective Association and several delegates who are known as opponents of Mr. Roosevelt's political policies. Rudolph Modest, a delegate from a socialist union of cigarmakers, declared the President's attitude was so clear that the question whether there had been a miscarriage of justice in the .extradition of Moyer and Haywood was no longer one of discussion. It was for the lawyers of the accused men to prove to the President that there had been an illegal extradition and if they could do that it would b"e incumbent on the President to fulfill his promise to see that-they received justice. REPLY XOT YET RECEIVED President's Answer to Federated I'nion Has Not Reached Prisoners. BOISE, Ida., May 5 The reply of President Roosevelt to the Federated Union of New York had not reached either the prisoners or their counsel up to a late hour tonight. They had been notified that the reply would be sent out to the newspapers tonight. Counsel for Haywood, Moyer and Pettibone said that no reply would be made until the Pres ident's letter had been carefully con sidered. PARTY TAKES OX THE EPITHET Washington Socialists Willing to Be Known as the "Undesirable." SEATTLE, Wash.. May 5. President Roosevelt's designation of Moyer and Haywood as "undesirable citizens" was accepted by Washington Socialists as their own characterization by the state convention of the Socialist Party here today. The convention almost unani mously passed a resolution declaring that if Moyer and the other accused officials are "undesirable citizens" they wish to be known in the same way. President Roosevelt did not escape criticism. The" same resolution demanded that he show proof for his statement that the officials incited to riot and blood shed. A resolution declaring that the Presi dent himself is the "most undesirable citizen in the United States today," was barely defeated, and then only because the convention went on record as refus ing to "handy epithets used by cap italists." The Socialist convention has been, marked by the ousting of Walter Thomas Mills, author of. "The Struggle for Ex istence," and a very -prominent rvan In the party.
