Preparatory orders were Issued today by the gen ersl staff of the Army for the dispatch of 5000 troops to Cuba.

Posts from which the troops to be sent to Cuba will be drawn also were notified that the forces designated should be made ready for the projected movement. . . Order Re Restored. At the War Department It was em phatlcally asserted that If the expedl tlonary forces did (to to Cuba It would not be with any thought of present In- terference In the affairs of the island or the government. The principal object would be to aid Cuba In restoring order. It was said the troops probably would be dis patched to the eastern end of the Island and would not go near Havana. The military exponents of the pro posed expedition will be the Fifth In fan try. Plattsburg Bnrrarka, New Tork; Twenty-Ninth Infantry, at Forts Porter, Jay and Niagara, New Tork the Seventy-Seventh Infantry, at Fort McPherson; the Eleventh Csvalry at Fort Oglethorpe and battalion F. of the Fourth Field Artillery, a mounted battery, at Fort D.

A statement by General Eatenei. the Insurrecto chief, denying that the ris ing was a race war or that the Insur recto bad been guilty of wanton out rages was made public at the State Department. It came from Estenos through Oeorge Colllster, the American ranch-owner who was reported cap tured. Estenos says that the negro In Cuba has been deprived of bis constltu ' tlonal rights. Estenos asserts that he has learned that American mining companies have armed their laborers and that he has warned them that If the laborers are permitted to fight the Insurrecto, -we shall retaliate by killing every gal lego on whom we can lay our hands." RUSHLIGHT WILL ASK WHY Continued From First Pea;,) them, but will insist upon their cony pllance with the law. Just when the next meeting of the Police Commission will be held to con tinue the taking of testimony the Mayor could not say last night. He will rail the meeting as soon as the evi dence already at hand Is In shape to present. The testimony of the police men, given Thursday, was taken by a stenographer and will be extended and ready for reading when the meeting Is held. aealealag Caaeea Stir. Ths Mayor's unprecedented action In railing former members of a grand Jury before blm and demanding to know where they got their Information for framing a severe letter of rebuke to Chief of Police Hlover created a pro. found Impression yesterday. Much In terest attaches to the forthcoming meelng, when Judge Taswell and Dis trict Attorney Cameron are scheduled to be the star witnesses. Chief of Police Hlover said yesterday that he Is earnestly endeavoring to work In harmony with Judge Taswell and that he hoped the letter of the grand Jury to himself and the subse quent InventlKatlon of the same by the Mayor and Police Commlsslonere would result In good. He especially approves the proposal for a night Municipal Court and additional proaecutore, which requires a charter amendment. "There Is one other thing." said the Chief, "which I think should be con tinually kept before the people until It Is adjusted, and that la regarding- ap peals In canes tried In Municipal Court. The law now provides that an appeal may be taken In cane of a fine of I JO. That la too light: It should be some thing like f 100 instead of 120. My rea son for making this statement Is that too many cases are appealed to the Cir cuit Court, after which our witnesses, wesry of wsltlng for trial In the higher rourt. dlaappear and our rases thereby go to pieces. It really defeats Justice. It la hard enough to convict offenders without the law playing into their hands." I te Mayer, Says Caaterea. District Attorney Cameron, In de fending his office against the charges made by policemen at the Mayor's hear ing Thuradsy, said that moral condi tions In the city are for the Mayor and the police to regulate; that it Is not for his office to go out end enforce the laws In regard to these things, and that. In case of laxity, the police and. In this Instance, the Msyor, are to blame, ilia office, he said. Is ready at all limes to prosecute to ths fullest ex tent all cases brought in by the police or Hherlff. In connection with the Municipal Court. It is esslly probable that Mayor Rushlight himself will be enabled to appoint a man of his own choice to that bench January 1, 11J. Judge Taswell Is the Republican nominee for Judge of the Clrrult Court, and If he Is elected at the November election he will take offlre January I. In that event, should nothing occur to change conditions, such aa a new charter, resulting In a new Mayor being Installed. Msyor Rushlight would have to name-Judge Taxwell's successor as Municipal Judge. This would place the rourt In the May or's control to a very Isrge extent. Judge Makes Reply. . Judge Tsswell Isaued the following formal statement In reply to charges: t reret te ha cnmpell.il to ssaln amk the enlumne of The Oreeonlan In dfnae of myeeir and tha work that Is accom plished In tha Municipal Court.

No amall fine, or Indeed any fine alon.. haa been meted out. Nearly all of the caaea In which eonvlctlona have been had have been appealed to tha I'lrcult Court aad In many Inalancee tha Judgment of the lower court haa ben re versed. While there have been a vaat num ber of vagrancy ohargra filed prohahly aa many ss the Msyor says the number of p.raona charged with being plmpa snd marquereaux has been very small. Many of tne.e chargee brought are agaioat man who are temporarily out of work, or hap pen to spend conaidarsbls of their time In aaloona and poolrooms, They are not va grant. withn tha strict meaning of thst word. He I fear. Are ExplaJaed. Tha Mayor aaya he will gladly provide amnle room for paraattee If tha courts will send them to tha rockplle. laat Winter tha city authorltlea were unable to take care of all tha prleonere convicted snd I wsa compelled to reieaaa many men wno ovner wl.e would have eerved time. The same condition will In all likelihood prevail again during the coming Winter, aa tha city la not aa well prepared now to take care of Ita prleonere aa laat year. I had Inranded not te take any notice of the reported Interview of the Mayor, but alnee on laat Thursday ha aubpanaed tha members of the May grand Jury snd also several police oftlrers to tell what they knew or rather what they thought the knew of the Immoral condltlona of the cllv. 1 am forced Irrefutably to the conclu- alon that ha la eeeklng to ehtft tha blame for existing condltlona from himself to someone else and that eomeone elae la tha Municipal Judge. I am not adverse to bearing my part of ths burden, but I ob ject lo sharing some one else's. Several monthe ago the Mayor stated that ha would be responsible for the moral condition of the city and the Chief of Police told the grand Jury a short time since that he took hla orders dally from the Mayor. since men the Mavor alone Is responsible for the moral condltlona of the city and ha aaya In your Issue of June 7 that ha haa been trying to clean up tha city all tha time. 1 wish to ask him .why It la that tha police officers have ordere not to molest houeea of prosti tution or to arreat nroatltiltea If the latter are not eollritlng from windows or on tha atreets? Officers have aworn to tnia xacl recently In tha Municipal Court. Statements Not Relieved. Coming now to the statements leged to have been made by tha Dears aummoned by the Mayor, must ennfesa that I am loath sl ot I to believe that tha officers made the state ments sttrlbuted to them. But until tney era denied I shall take them as being true. Of courae, sa to their slleged experiences with the TWoutv lilstrtct Attorney I have nothing to do. 1 have to act upon tha rhargea aa filed In tha court. It tne evi dence does not support the charge the eom- flalnt Is dismissed Very often, however, augg.st to the officers that they file an other charge wnicn tneir evidence win sus tain. If thev fall to carry out my aliases tlon then, of course, they should not be heard to complain. Take orncer Lima t.i.m.nl that "h, had all klnda of trou ble with Judga Taswell and aeputy District Att-irney Hennesay In court caaea." UIHa l. a aood officer and rarely comes Into court. The facta of the rase are sa fol lows: Two men and two women were ar rested by him charged technically with an "Indecent and Immoral act." Upon the trial hare w.a not a aclntllla of evidence to auataln tha eharse. I euggeeted that na file a charge or vagrancy against an oe fendanta which he did. The defendants were convicted of this charge snd escn one sentenced to pay a fins of loo snd to im prisonment for SO daya. Why ha should complain I cannot understand. as to whether hla wltneaaes were tampered with I know nothing. nor did I bear sny commotion In tha courtroom. (amblers Not Identified. Officer Ijong aays he suffered dereat In gambling cases whera be us tha men gam bling and money on tha table, -but the mm were dlamlaaed for lack of evidence. Long muat have reference to s raae tried In the court last Wednesday. Ha had ar rested nlna Chinamen, one of whom ha charged with "conducting a gambling game -and the eight othera with "gambling." On ths witness stand ha swore he aaw three or four only of the men gambling snd one conducting ths game. When asked by the City Attorney why he had all eight men charged with gambling, he ssld that he had made a blunder In making his complaint. Asked further If ha knew tne men wno were gambling, he said ha did not. On hla own atatements there wera about one-half of tha men gambling snd the othera wera not. Long did not know and of course It waa Impossible for tha court to determine whe ware gambling. Aa tha Judge of tne court Is not a mind reader, tha chargee against the eight men had to be dlsmliaed and tha ether man whoea Identity was es- tabllahed waa found guilty and nned. In the Jack Dunn eaee the atatements of Sergeanta Price and Hoyle ware talao. Tne evidence showed that Jack Dunn did not take $.1 or sny smount of money nightly from ths womsn, and ths statement that I helped Juggle the ease Is silly. It did show that Dunn waa renting a cigar atand to the woman and all tha money he ever received from her was rental for that atsnd. If st anytime officers have sny wltneaaes that the Proaecutlng Attorney does not bring forth. It la an eaay matter fot them to sug gest that fact to the court snd they will be given every opportunity to present their case. Tha Judge cannot know ths wlt neaaes they may have. "Case Pntperly Wemlaee." I do not now recall the caaa Officer Hutchinge complains about, but I do re member a elash occurring between him snd Deputy Hennea.y about certain chargee snd tha caae waa very properly dlamlaaed. aa Hutrhlnga had nothing to auatala the charge. Officer Black. It seems, was "terribly dis- sppolnted" because he was not on hand to proaecute. But I trust he haa sot suffered much loaa or aleep by raaaon thereof. If hla taatlmony In tha caae In question was no stronger thsn In snother srreat made by him of a young man of .2 years tried the day before thla crime waa that ha had been visiting pool rooms too much to suit the of ficer!, then tha officer ahould heave a algh of relief In not having to relate Is court the clrcumatsnces or making an arrest Is so heinous a crime. If my memory serves me right., thla same officer srraated a poor proatltuie on Washington street laat Winter for no other reaeon than that aha waa upos the atreata of the city. At the time of the arreat her conduct was sboye reproach. One or two offlcera complained that their cases had been dlamlaaed on Thuraday morn. Ing while they were conducting a raid. The caaea are likely to bs called at sny time a f -ler o'clock A. M. The caaes In question were not dlamlaaed nntll 10:411 A. M., before knew anything about the offlcera being engaged In any raid. Tha buaineaa of tha enurt, generally speaking, haa precedence over all other matters snd when a case Is set for trial tha officers should be there st the time to prosecute. We muat have mathod and ayetera In trying caaea. other wlae endlees confusion. Inconvenience and delay would arise. Another Pieeeeutos Needed. -Mention was wade at the meeting In the Mayor'a office of the need of another prose cutor In the police Court. That need cannot be emphaalxed too strongly. Mr. Sullivan, tha preaent Deputy City Attorney. Is an able. eoneclentloue and palnataktng prosecutor. but no one man can discharge the dutlee of that office and acquire very eattefactory results The Jurora In one case recently made mention of this fsct. stating that It aeem.d to them that the case had not been properly prepared and for that reaeon evi dence which tha city could very likely have gotten waa sot forthcoming and tha result was thst the defendant was srqultted. This was sot Mr. pullivan a fault, aa ha had been pressed with too msny raaee to so ovar the evidence with tha offlcera prior to the trial. Coming back again to the meeting held yeaterday In the Mayor'a office, do you not think that Inaamuch aa statsmenta were Ikely to be made regarding mr action Is certain casea. It would have been but com mon courtesy for the Mayor to extend to me an Invitation to be present and hear those statements from the persona making them? Hut anova all alee, let us be honeat and fair to each other and not try te put upon an ' other's shoulder the burdens that properly belong te us. Lutheran Are Meeting at Chehalls. CHEHAL1S, Wasrw.

WIFE'S LOYALTY RECITED Day Given Over Chiefly to Tactics of Obstruction, Prosecution and Defense Alternately Pro I sentlng Objections. LOS AXOKLKS, June T. Today's pro ceedings at the trial of Clarence 8. L'arrow on the charge of bribery con sisted principally of obstructive tactica, with defense and prosecution alternat ing In the blocking of the opposing counsels' attempts to elicit new facts from Bert H. Franklin, who was on the stand the entire day. The proceed Ings were enlivened by frequent verbal encounters between Aeslatant District Attorney Ford and Attorney if. li. An pel, who conducted the examinations for opposing sides. Franklin, under cross-examination. arter repeated questions as to his rea son for pleading guilty to the charge of bribery against him. made a long and somewhat dramatic atatement of how he succumbed to the pressure brought to Dear. Promise ef lasssaalty Denied. He denied repeatedly, however, that he received any promise by the Drone. cution of Immunity or anything else tor giving testimony against Darrow. The witness told how he had been Informed by Attorney Lecompto Davis that it had been arranged for him to Bet a aentence of two years In the pen. itentlary if he would plead guilty to bribing George X. Lockwood. "I went home and told my wife." said Franklin, "that the time bad come for me to make up my mind what to do, but that I thought the proper thing was to bear the burden myself and pro. tect that man sitting beside you." At this point the witness pointed at Mr. Darrow and almost with the same breath offered an apology to the de fendant, saying that he did not mean to make his statement offensive. Prteea Terse ot Feared. "My wife, told me that it waa tha right thing to do." continued Franklin; mat ine would take the children out of school and work her fingers off if necessary to keep things going until I got out. Then I went to Mr. Adams, who was my friend and attorney, to see what arrangements could be made about my case." I So you were not afraid of going to tne I'enitentiaryr asked AppeL "I never was afraid to servo time In tbe Penitentiary and I am not afraid now." retorted Franklin. The defense sought to draw from the witness the substance of his conversa tions with Assistant District Attorney Ford. Edwin Dingle, the Deputy United States Marshal, and others with whom he had talked regarding his turning state's evidence. These efforts met with little success, the objections of the prosecution having been sustained In most instances. HEALTH IS RECOVERED W. W. Cotton Returns IVoni Jive Months' Trip.

OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash Ington. June 7. Representatlvs Ber ger, of Wisconsin, the lone Socialist member of Congress, today began pro' reedlngs of Impeachment against Judge Ilanford, on the Federal bench at Se attle, who recently revoked the cltlsen shlp of Leonard Olsson. of that city, on the ground that at tne time he waa admitted as a citizen he waa not as a matter of fact willing to uphold the Constitution of the United States, as the law requires. Representative Rerger charged Judge Harford with "high crimes and misde meanors, citing a long series of decisions which he characterises aa unlawful, and also alleges that the Judge la an hab itual drunkard. The House adopted Berger's resolution directing the Judi ciary committee to make an investiga tion. Immediate Artloa Improbable. Representative Berger said after pre senting his resolution that he did not believe the Judiciary committee would take up the charges until next ces sion, though he etood ready, he said, to present his evidence wbenever the committee wss willing to hear him. Berger Intimated that among his papers was an Interesting series of photo graphs of Judge Hsnford, which he re garded as strong evidence against ths judge. Upon them he will probably rely to sustain that part of the accu sation of Hanford's alleged personal unfitness to sit upon the Federal bench. Berger asserts that President Tsft and Attorney-General Wlckersham were co-operating with him and sup plying him all Information and papers In the Government files which have any bearing on charges now of record. Berger Predicts Realgmattea. According to his statement today, Berger la confident he will be able to make out a case against Judge Ilanford whenever he la allowed to appear be fore the Judiciary committee, and he predicts that the Judiciary committee would prepare articles of Impeachment against the Seattle Judge after the case was presented. Berger personally will present the ease to the committee. He today ex pressed the opinion that Judge Hsn ford would not remain on the bench long enough for the charges to be In vestigated, but would resign to escape further humiliation.
