After reviewing the attempts to ob tain an aareement between the parties, the official report continues: -The Prime Minister stated that the a-nvemment would aak from Parlia ment a legislative declaration that a reasonable minimum wage, accom panied by adeouate aafeauards for the protection of the employer, should be made a statutory term of the contract mnlnrmrnl of persons H(tfM in underground coal mines.

Writing to H. C. Campbell, of the Hoard of Education, regarding the .i.....imlnn siralnst the Hoy OcOUt movement mado by tfi"e goclaJIste of Portland. General Baden-Powell aaia ik:i in no other Dlace that he had vtttei bad his meeting been Inter runted as It was here. He attributes the hostility of the Socialists toward it.. nof Remit movement to Ignorance. on their part, of the true purpose of the organization. General Baden-PoweU'a letter to Mr. Campbell follows: I am so serr that yon should bare been out to trie trouble of s.kln for a hearing for me from the fmsil but conspicuous part f Interrupters In to audience at my ad dress to the boys of Portland the other os. Though I have visited many Socialist cen ter.

The literature prepared by the Oregon 5wlallt partjr as a -true exposition" of the aims of the. Hoy-Pcout movement Is so untrue that It elves the exact opposite of what we sre dnlns for the lads, and the Interrupters had probably takea this as their sulci. Hut I have ao doubt whatever that the fair-minded men of their party will look into both sides of the question and see whst the msnual for the Boy Hcouts of America reallv does and then Judge for themselvea whether there Is sr.:hin at all that they t-sn object to In tha movement, whose main object Is the good of the poorest boy.

T. R.'S COMMITTEE QUITS iCeattnaee! From rtrst Tsge reelirator reaches town he will find that the headquarter are closed and t'le etate organization Is out of exist ence. The crista waa reached Saturday, when a telegraphic ultimatum waa served on the Chicago managera ot the Rooaevelt campaign that tha state organisation would expect recognition vr qnlt. In response word came back Monday that a special representative would be sent to this atate to tnrulre Into the fight, conferring both with O. C Moore, of tSpokana. and hie ad herents and tha Rufua Wilson follow. Ina throughout the state. . In the meantime antl-Wilson leaders began sending prominent Insurgents to tee George If- Walker and to serve notice on him that Wilson bad to be tllmtnatad. K. C Snyder and W. T. I leek a. chairman and secrstary. respec llvely. of the Cotterill campaign com mittee; Allan Pale. Tore Murphlne and other prominent Insurgents, voiced their protests. Msrtkls La rellette Maa. Murphlne Insisted, as chairman of the Republican county committee and tn admirer of Robert M. La Pollette. n keeping out of the Roosevelt move ment, but he was strongly against Wil ton. The flgbt waged by O. C Moore, of Spokane, against Rufua Wilson orlgb isted tn the Polndexter campaign when rVllson waa accredited with being; the nanager of. that fight. Moore precipi tated a new fieht when Wilson soucht o Isunch a Roosevelt movement In this itate about two months ago, but In irgat leadara here were ao busy with municipal politics that they paid no at tention to Moore's protests. Moore waa overwhelmingly voted down In the meeting called to perfect a state organisation In Roosevelt's be half, and when he attempted to organ ize In hia own behalf at Tacoma. he only gathered a handful of followers. What Wilson might have done had the fight gone to a showdown In the King County organisation Is problem atical. He quit and In quitting prob ably eliminated himself as a candidate for Rcpresentatlve-at-large. upon which he was figuring confidently a few weeks ago. Wilson demonstrated In bis letter writing campaign about the state prior to the organisation of his state com mittee that he had the confidence of a large number of prominent Insur gent leaders. His derision to abandon the contest and disband the state Roosevelt organization leaves them in the air. FROMISK BY T. R. IS DENIED 1 41 Follette Declared to Be Tnder Xo Misapprehension. WAS-HINGTOX. March IS. Roose velt headquarters today gave out an open letter by Glfford Plnchot. which quotes a letter written by Ollson Gard. ner. a newspaperman, to Walter L. Mouse r. Senator La Follette's campaign manager, denying that Colonel Roose velt promised his support to the Sen ator's candidacy, with assurance that he himself would not become a candi date. The letter was given out as an an swer to Mr. Housera statement today that "Plnchot knew Roosevelt not only encouraged. but was favorable to I .a Follette's candldiu-y until It came to appear that It might succeed." Gardner's letter to Houser declares untrue any statement that Colonel Roosevelt urged Henator La Follette to become a candidate. It then goes on to say that Colonel Roosevelt sent word by Gardner that he did not believe sen ator La Kollette could win. and he be lieved Taft'a renomlnation would be forced by money and patronage and. therefore. Colonel Rooaevelt aald he did not feel like urging La Follette to go Into a loslnsr fight. FRANCHISE IS DISCUSSED JO.SELYX SAYS 3 -CENT-FAKE CLACSE IS PROHIBITORY. If Included, He Declares, Money Cannot Re Borrowed and "Slab Ends" Can't Be Buill. In explanation of the attitude of the atreet railway company with regard to the "stub-end" extensions, the fran chise for which is now before the City Council. President Josselyn, of the Portland Railway. Light A Power Com pany, said yesterday: "Our present franchise and the city charter as well provides that we shall charge & cents and no more upon the streetcars for a ride In one general di rection In the city. As a result of thla provision we are compelled to carry passengers irom Lents to bt. Johns, a distance of 17 miles, for 5 rents. Passengers are carried from Portland to St. Johns on through trains, a distance of 9.9 miles, for 5 cents. In each one of these cases there Is a distinct loss to the company. "A regulation In the stub-end" fran chises so that the fare might be cut to less than 6 cents puts the project be yond the pale of safe Investment for those aeeklng public utility securities. It doea not take a very broad concep tion of business to come to any other conclusion. There is no one in Port land, and for that matter no one In the Kast. who desires to put bis money Into securities where the revenue in support of it can be cut in two. I do not believe there la anyone out in Rose City Park. Eastmoreland. Mount Tabor. Montavllla or any of the other outlying points who desires to be hauled into the city for less than S cents. If that is true, the Insistence of the fare regulation does not meet with their approval. The application for tha "stub-end franchise was made at the request of the people In the outer districts. In some placea they are desirous of paving and seek the aid of the company tn paying a share of the work. They also desire addi tional streetcar service. The whole project represent" an In vestment of 9500.000. We cannot make the Investment unless we have the right from the city to do so. The 'stub- end' franchise will expire at the same moment as tha general franchise under which the company operates. We have felt that the terms and condltiona should be the same as In the franchise under which we are now operating. still we have consented to many adill- lonal strictures at the request of the City Attorney and the City Council. There are more than 30 distinct Tent ative sections to the franchise. In add!- Ion to the many provided for In the general charter of the city. We have asked that thla proposed fare rrgula- Ion be omitted, so aa to Insure the building of the 'stub-ends this year. hus RivinK the people In the suburbs he service they desire. The propoal lon la a very plain one. We cannot borrow the money If the conditions of he franchise are such as to endanger he stability of the Investment, and If we cannot borrow the money we can not do the work."

BANKER PHILLIPS TELLS OF CAREER On Witness Stand in Own Be half Vancouver Man Relates of Bank's Loans. C0RDW00D CUT FOR LIVING Ex-Prebidcnt of Defunct Savings In-t-tltntlon. Now 50 Years Old, Wa Born In Missouri and ATent to Goldendale "When Young. KAUMA, Wash., March 15. (Spe cial.) The defense closed its testimony in the Phillips bank case this afternoon and court took a recess till 7 o'clock, when counsel began their arguments before the jury. The question of the solvency or Insolvency of the defunct Vancouver bank will soon be. defined. Most of the day was passed by the defense In establishing the values of various properties owned by the four firms most heavily Indebted to the bank when it closed, vis: Aldrlch Co., who owed the bank 198.000: Rec tor (c Paly, who owey) $5.1, 000; Moore ft Hardin, whose Indebtedness to the bank was 9S1.000, and Swank & Co., who owed 941.000. These values were important, as they affected the bank's securities on Ita loans, and therefore affected the solvency ot the bank at the time It closed. . J. T. S. Paynter. of Vancouver, was the first witness this morning, and tes tified that the stock of merchandise carried by Swank & Co. at the time the bank closed was worth JSi.000 to 990.000. Paynter was manager of the grocery department for Swank & Co. Firm Mad Trulpmeata la I'se. Rector, of the firm of Rector &Xaly, contractors, testified that his firm owned large equipments then in use on vsrlous contracts, including street paving In Vancouver, a Bull Run pipe line contract, a railroad contract on the Astoria Southern and others, and that his firm was solvent on December IS. 1910. and would have continued so haj not the bank closed and claims against his company pressed for payment-Several character witnesses testified to Phillips' good character and reputa tion, dating back to his boyhood. Dur ing the examination of one of these Lee Kvans, formerly of Goldendale It developed that' Mr. Phillips had cut cordwood for a living when a boy at Goldendale. H. C Phillips. the defendant, took the stand In the afternoon, and testi fied In answer to questions from his attorney that he was born In Missouri 50 years ago; had gone to Goldendale. Wash., when a young man and had been a farmer, stockman, deputy coun ty auditor and Auditor of Klickitat County for four years prior to (joins' Into the banking business in Vancou ver. Loans Made oa Inquiry. He stated that the loans made to Swank & Co. had been based upon personal Inspection of what appeared to him as a stock worth nearly 9100.000, and upon a statement submitted by that firm giving their assets at !M. 000. He considered Swank & Co. and Rector Daly as solvent concerns at the time the bank closed. It Is admitted by -she receiver of the bank that the Aldrlch properties will pav all claims against that company. Phillips testified that the notes giv en from time to time by the firms above mentioned were generally to cov. er overdrafts made by the said firms In the course of their general business. W. COOPER MORRIS ILL COXVICTKD BAXRKR SAID TO BE IX NEED OF OUTDOOR LIFE. Penitentiary Physician, Declares Alex Svreek, Has Kxprcesed Great Ineasiness at Condition. SALEM. Or.. 'March 15. (Special.) That W. Cooper Morris, convicted bank er. Is liable to succumb to confinement at the State Penitentiary and that com plications which have set In since he waa put In prison may prove ratal un less he Is allowed outdoor life and ex ercise, was the statement made by Alex Sweek today, who was In the city on other buslnesa. but visited Morris at the Penitentiary. "Mr. Morris la now slightly im proved." aald Mr. Sweek. "He has been seriously 111. however, and the Peni tentiary physician has expressed great uneasiness at his condition. "While at the present time his sick ness Is not ot a nature to result In im mediate fears of Ita proving fatal, nevertheless the complications whicli have developed In his condition, I gravely apprehend, will result In ex ceedingly serious consequences for Mr. Morris If he is continued In confine ment at the prison." J u dare Sweek declared today that Governor West had never made him a promise that he would pardon the for mer banker. "While I sincerely wish that he had riven me such a promlstf," said Sweek. "he never did. He has talked to me, or rather I have talked to him on sev eral occasions relative to the chances for a pardon for Mr. Morris, but each time the Governor refused to commit himself and said he would act within a reasonable time. "He also asked thst he be not deluded with letters or petitions for the pardon of Mr. Morris. He said such letters and. petitions would have no influence with him In one way or another and that he would prefer that there be no arlst of requests for clem enoy for Mr. Morris." Judite Sweek was Insistent today thst the Governor had never made any promise as to the future of .Morris, either to him or to anyone else In his knowledge. It Is probable that Gov ernor West will pass on the Morris case shortly after his return to Salem. SMALL SHIPPERS AIDED "Warehousemen Permitted to Ixnd In I.est fhan Carload Lots. Shippers on the Southern Taclflc lines In Orejton, beeinning today, will able to load less -than carload lots of frelnht In quantities of 15.000 pounds or more from their own ware houses or from their Industry or team tracks. The new tariff bears the fol lowing; clause relative to this plan: letss carload rates wli! apply from and to warehouse, industries or team tracks of tht" company on shipments of less than carload frelsht. not otherwise speclflerl. loaded In cans by shippers in rots of l.V00 pounds or more per car. and on Individual articles or separate pieces of freiftht weigh ing rO0O pounds, more or less, on which a minimum charge equal to first-class of 6000 pounds Is paid, the frrlRlu In all css'-s to be for one consignee, at one destination and covered by one bill of lading. Individual ar ticles or separate pieces weighing 5000 pounds, more or less, as described, to he unloaded by consignee. Heretofore the Southern Pacific has not accepted less than carload ship ments excepting through the company warehouses, requiring shippers to haul their small lots to the warehouses. Tha new arrangement will effect a consid erable saving to small manufacturers In Portland and at points on the Southern Pacific in the Willamette Valley, on the new Tillamook line and the Corvallis & Kastern.
