TIIE ; MORNING -OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 22, 1910. 3 ADELE CASE WEDS "OM QUIET" Portland Singer Refuses to Wait Till June to Be Bride. HUSBAND IS WILLARD BEAM Without Even Serving Xotlce on Families Interested Young People Take Matters Into Their Own. Hands Will Live In South. SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 21. (Special.) Once again the charming young con tralto, known to the music world as Miss Mary Adele Case, of Portland, has given her friends and family a Burprise re garding her personal affairs. s Without hint or indication. Miss Case and Wlllard Metcalf Bean were married Thursday evening in the studio of Rev. Dr. William Rader in the Calvary Pres byterian Church, in which choir the bride is the contralto. Ever since the return of the young singer from Europe last Fall, her matri monial horizon has been prominently be fore the public. A sensation was created upon her landing at New York by the rumor of her engagement to Claus Bpreckels, son of John D. Sprockets, who was a passenger on the same steamer with Miss Case and who had been a co- student with her in Paris. Though stren uous denial was made of the existence of an engagement between them, the im pression would not down with the public until the formal announcement a few weeks ago of the engagement of Miss Case to Mr. . Beam. Tin go fof Romance Noted. Even that was surrounded with the tinge of romance in that it was said Miss Case's mother denied the engage ment and refused to sanction it. Be that as it may, the fact remains that the erstwhile Miss Case is now Mrs. Wlllard Beam. The marriage was to have taken place In June, but the youthful pair were Impatient and, taking matters into their own hands, they were mar ried without the pomp and social prom inence which was expected, and Quietly proceeded to the study of their min ister, who pronounced the words before a very limited few of even the rel atives. None of the bride s family was present, and Mrs. Beam, Sr., said today that she was not present. The bride's family, however, lives in Oregon and might not have been able to comply with a railroad schedule for the cere TOony, but the Beams reside in this city and are in easy reach of various resi dential portions of the city. But there is a clash of statement in this matter, for young Mrs. Beam de clared today that the groom's mother was present at the ceremony, though she said that she and Mr. Beam had decided so suddenly upon the marriage it was out of the question for her own mother to come. Miss Case Tires of Notoriety. "Why," she said, "even my sister only left lor Europe a short time ago, miss ing my wedding by a week, but I had set no dh-te then. Mr. Beam and I took the matter into our own hands. I am so tired of all the notoriety I have had that I determined to have none about this, and we chose an apartment on Hyde street, furnished it and then went to Dr. Rader's studio for the little wed ding. I shall continue to teach and in April Mr. Beam and I will give a song recital, for he has a beautiful voice too, and in another year 1 am going Into grand opera, as I have always planned. "I expect to make my operatic debut in America, for I am an American, and even with all the study I have had in Europe nothing can change my love for our country, nor could 1 have ever been Induced to marry one of those foreign noblemen." Wlllard M. Beam is the son of the late I. Wlllard Beam and a nephew of ex-Secretary of the Navy Victor H. Metcalf of Oakland. During her resi dence In San Francisco since return ing from Europe the bride has made her home with Mrs. Beam on Fell street. The young couple went at once into their own apartments, 1757 Hyde street. after a wedding supper down town. The bride wore for her wedding i handsome tailor suit of blue broad cloth with a large picture hat to match and was entirely unattended.

Another party of European avia tors will come to America in the early Spring, and Los Angeles will see more air navigation -within a few months. Portland, too. will see the flyers. K. L.

I shall hold meets here, in San Francisco and Portland on the Coast, and then "will move East." POSTAL WILL COMPETE MACK AY DENIES HIS SYSTEM IS IN COMBINE. When Competition Ceases, Monopoly or -Government Ownership Will Be Only Choice, He Says. NEW YORK, Jan. 21. (Special.) Clar ence H. Maokay. in his testimony today before the committee of the Legislature of New York appointed to examine the Question of whether telegraph and teie phone companies should be placed under the public service law. stated tnai oy reason of the competition given by the Postal Telegraph Cable Company, tele graph rates had been reduced from 20 per cent to 60 per cent. Mr. Mackay also stated that tho Postal Company was the only company that had ever succeeded in competing with the Western Union, and that If the Postal Company should combine with the Bell Telephone Company and the Western Union, there could be no competition. On account of it being impossible to obtain entrance into larjre commercial centers and to obtain rights of way on highways betwen great cities such as New York and Philadelphia, and also on account of the vast sum of money that would be required Mr. Mackay declared that the Postal- Telegraph Company would be the last competitor in tele graphy, and when that competition ceases there will be a choice only between mo nopoly and government ownership. Mr. Mackay again stated that the Postal Company was absolutely free from any combination merger, control, or un derstanding with the Bell Telephone in terests or the Western Union Telegraph Company." To the direct question, do you favor placing the telegraph companies under the Public Service Commission T' Mr. Mackay answered; "We have no objection to being FORMERLY MARY ADELE CASE. placed under the Public Service Com mission if that Is desired by the state. I would, however, call attention to the fact that the telegraph business is different from the telephone business in that our records show that about seven-eighths of the telegraph business in New York State is interstate, over which, I suppose, the Public Service Commission would have no Jurisdic tion." "How much salary do you receive?" counsel asked the Postal president. "I occupy a unique position In that respect. I draw no salary whatever from any of the companies." Mrs. Mackay wai .-n interested audi tor while her 'husband testified. The Russian reply states that the Rus sian Government considers the alter native proposition, for its participation In an international syndicate for t?ie construction of the Chinchow-Aigun line,, acceptable in principle, but be cause of the political and strategic value of the enterprise, and Its bear ing on the East China milroad, Russia will defer a final answer on this sub ject, pending the receipt of information as to the principles of the American project. Russia reserves the right -to pass upon all such projects affecting its political, strategic and economic in terests.

GIVE POWER SITES TO STATES IS CRY Governors Would Turn Over Whole Matter of Devel opment. ADVANTAGES TO BE GAUMED Senator Carter to Introduce Bill Monday Which Would Reitfc Remove Problem of Regulating Use of Lands and Streams. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Jan. 21. Senator Carter, of Mon tana, has prepared and will introduce a bill carrying out the recommendations of the Governors of the country at their recent meeting in Washington with ref erence to the disposition of waterpower sites on the public domain. The bill provides that all public lands immediately adjoining streams and form ing a part of power, sites shall be ceded to the various state in which they are located; the states to retain perpectual ownership of such lands, with authority to lease them for power development In such a way as to prevent monopoly. Carter Explains Bill. In explaing his bill. Carter .said that the states in most instances now have control of water In streams on which power can be developed, but much of the abutting land belongs to the Federal Government. It is lvis contention that the control of both land and water is essential to the Intelligent regulation of the development and use of water power and with this divided authority, neither the state nor the Federal Government can work out a satisfactory and effective memoa or control. Therefore, he would transfer all public lands necessary to power development to various states and allow them to make their own regulations under which leases for limited periods shall be made. This bill Is at marked variance with the bill heretofore approved by the Ad ministration, but In view of the firm and unanimous stand taken by the Governors and the strong sentiment In favor of state regulation on waterpower sites, it will receive strong support. Opposition Is Foreseen. The Carter bill will be presented Monday. It is expected that the pressing of this measure will evoke a storm of op position from supporters of the Taft conservation programme. Carter, how ever, takes the position that when his plan "is understood it will command the support of the conservationists. His bill provides that "any state may enter any unappropriated public lands located within its borders which is chiefly valuable for use in the de velopment of water-power upon making proof to the satisfaction of the Secre tary of the Interior that the lands ought to be entered chiefly for such purpose. If, upon submission of such proof, the Secretary of the Interior Is satisfied that the land Is as de scribed, the bill directs that official to Issue a patent to the state for all of the land or such portion thereof as he may deem necessary." " It is provided that the "state never shall alienate the title to the land and shall, by law, reserve to its Legislature the right to fix rates ofi rental for the use of the land, based on capacity for power development, and regulate the price tobe charged by any person, company or corporation for electric current generated by the power de veloped." MONEYS MAY BE . RETURNED Hawley Would Give Back Fees to Registers of Land Offices. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash Ington, Jan. 21.

THAW FAMILY ASSAILED PERSISTENT EFFORTS TO FREE JIURDERER DENOUNCED. Special Committee of Bar Recom mends Amending Habeas Corpus Law. ROCHESTER, N. Y., Jan. 21. In a re port that scathingly rebuked efforts to liberate Harry K. Thaw from the Mat teawan asylum, the special committee on the commitment and discharge of the criminal insane today recommended to the 33d annual meeting of the New York State Bar Association the amendment of the habeas corpus law. It is suggested that the law be so amended that a person. confined in a private asylum, may ask for a writ of habeas corpus at any time and without supporting affidavits, -but that a person confined in any state hos pital for the Insane may make ap plication for a writ of habeas- corpus only on a written, verified petition, ac companied by the act, made under oath by two , qualified medical examiners in lunacy. The report continues In part: "A youthful debauchee of great wealth, trained to believe that his money gave him a right of freedom from all re rtraints, whether Imposed by laws or the rules of decency, inheriting an ab normality of mind with tendency -to de velop Into homicidal acts, leading a de based and Ignoble life without the respon sibility which wealth imposes upon its owners, commits a foul and cowardly murder in a public resort. "To the shame of the medical profes sion be it spoken, the expert who at one time swears him out of jail on an opinion of insanity at another time at tempts to swear him out of an asylum by an opinion of sanity. So forgetful are the murderer's fam ily of their duty to society, their obliga tion to uphold tha law, that they aid and abet the plot and. Instead of leaving him to his fate as It Is their duty as citizens to do, they claim, forsooth, that he is an object of persecution-. "It Is a question of time and money when this particular murderer will be set free to direct his homicidal inclina tions against some other citizen who h already fallen, or may nerearter come under his displeasure. And everything done according to the form of law." E TEST ABOUT DUE RAILWAY' MEN PICK OUT ROAD FOR DEMAND FIGHT. Real Dispute Comes on Question of Pay When Men Report for Duty. Conference Monday. CLEVELAND. O., Jan. 21. President W. G. Lee of the Brotherhood of Rail way Trainmen and Grand Chief A. B. Garretson of the Order of Railway Con ductors will-meet in the East Monday to formally enter upon negotiations that will determine the outcome of the present dispute between the railways and their employes. - President Lee announced tonight be fore leaving for Chicago that he al ready has picked out one railroad on which a test of the trainmen's demands will be made. Owing to the fact that replies re ceived are virtually uniform the two brotherhood leaders believe that a set tlement on-one road will lead to a slm ilar adjustment on all the others. The real dispute, It is conceded, will come on the question of payment to the train crews for work done before starting on the day's run. The men want pay from the time they report for duty. The statement of Chairman J. C. Stewart of the General Managers' Asso ciation that wages undoubtedly will be raised was received with satisfac tion at the brotherhood headquarters here. "The railroads are meeting us in the same spirit of fairness as we are meeting- them," said President Lee. "I can not say when things will open, but it will be soon probably as soon as Grand Chief Garretson and I arrive in New York." Mr. Lee will be in Chicago Saturday and Sunday in connection with the mat ter of the yardmen's wage demands there. BIG ROADS REJECT DEMANDS Eastern Trainmen, Fighting for Higher Wages, Lose.
