THE MORNING OREGOXIAN. MONDAY. SEPTEMBER 16, 1912. KELLAHER SAYS HE 15 FOR ROOSEVELT Nominee as Taft Elector at Last Breaks Silence and Joins Bull Moose. CONSPIRACY IS REPORTED Candidate Bequests Words "Progres sive, for Roosevelt," Be Placed on Ballot After His Xame-Republican Situation Complicated. ' "In accordance with section 3394 of Lord's Oregon Laws, I hereby request that the following words be placed after my name as Presidential, elector. viz: 'Progressive, for Roosevelt." " The foregoing is the text of a let ' ter forwarded yesterday by Dan Kel- - laher to Secretary of State Olcott. It amounts to a repudiation by Mr. Kel laher of his nomination as a Taft elec tor on the Republican ticket in the April primary election. At the same time Mr. Kellaher has evidently forced his name on the ballot as a Bull Moose elector. This will be the result if the Secretary of State complies with the request of Mr. Kellaher. It was reported yesterday that as a result of a conspiracy hatched among the leaders of the Progressive party in 'Portland everything was arranged for putting the skids under Mr. Kel laher when the party holds its conven tion at Salem Tuesday, and select some body else for his place on the electoral ticket of the Progressive party. Brown Dentee Sidetrack Story. George Arthur Brown, chairman of the state committee of the Bull Moose party, last night declared that he knew nothing of a plan to sidetrack ' Mr. Kellaher. He professed to know nothing of what the Progressive party convention would do when it assembles in Salem. However, the feud that has existed between Dr. H. W. Coe, National com :' mltteeman for the new party, and Mr. Kellaher, since the organization was effected several weeks ago, was only - increased as a result of the recent visit of Roosevelt when further clashes oc--curred between the two rivals over im portant details relating to the enter tainment of the Bull Moose leader. This - fact gives evidence to the suspicion that it was the intention of the Salem convention to shelve Mr. Kellaher. But the action of Mr. Kellaher In making the request he has mailed to the Secretary of State has not only . further complicated the situation as to the Republican electoral ticket but it has produced unexpected confusion among the Roosevelt forces if they really Intended to get rid of Mr. Kel laher. Briefly, the situation Is this: Mr. Kel- ' 'laher's name was written on the Re publican primary ballot a sufficient - number of times to nominate him as a Republican elector. Within the re- fl uired time following the primary eleC' ' tion, he filed his formal acceptance of ; the nomination in the Secretary of Slate's office and became a Taft elec tor. By the nature of his oath, he can ' not withdraw from the electoral ticket. 1'nder the law his name can appear on thj ballot only once, regardless of how many times he may have been nora inated for the same office. Taft Might Lose One Vote. If the Secretary of State complies with Mr. Kellaher's request, the Port land man preempts one of the five places on the Republican electoral tick et, but goes before the voters as a Roosevelt elector, as the words he re quested should follow his name would clearly indicate. In all probability, this precludes the Republicans from either getting the name of Mr. Kella her off the ballot or selecting another elector to run as a Republican, com pleting the party's quota of five elec tors. Under these circumstances, should Taft carry Oregon, he would receive only four of the five electoral votes to which he would be entitled. Charles B. Moores, chaiman of the Republican State Central Committee, when informed last night of the ac tion of Mr. Kellaher. said he would await the decision of the Progressive party convention as to an electoral ticket before making a legal inquiry into the status of Mr. Kellaher's posi tion and what was possible for the Republicans to do In order to get i full representation on the ballot. Progressives la a Qnandary. If Mr. Kellaher has correctly antlci pated the scheme of the Progressive party to displace him from its elec toral ticket, he has placed that organ! nation in a quandary also. If the re quest of Mr. Kellaher Is granted by the Secertary of State, he becomes to all Intents and purposes a Roosevelt elector. For this reason if the conven tion at Salem should nominate - five electors, exclusive of Mr. Kellaher. the Roosevelt vote In the state would be divided in the election among six In stead of five electors. In view of the complicated situation Mr. Kellaher has presented, the Progressive party may be expected to nominate only four elec tors. For the same reasons. Dr. Coe ami the other .local leaders of' the party may conclude It wiser to take the belligerent Mr. Kellaher -Into-their fond embrace rather than to under take to nominate five electors and split the Roosevelt vote six wayu. Oyster Company at 24S Ankeny street. yesterday. In which Louis Wachsmutn was adjudged' the superior of William Souls, of the Portland Press Club, in that particular branch of the culinary art. The voting was done by the steamship men and the members of the Portland Press Club wno were present, and the final count showed the pro verblal ratio of 16 to 1 In favor of Wacnsmuth. The challenge was Issued to 'William r-ouls who has long enjoyed an en viable reputation as a chef. Souls readily accepted and the conditions the rontest were arranged forthwith, B.' the ingenious device of putting the chowder in bowls bearing numerical numbers the official testers were un ab'e to determine whose dish they were eating. Those who favored Souls claim that their man was "jobbed by the win ner. . who, It Is alleged, slipped 300 transplanted Eastern oysters and bunch of small bivalves into the mix ture In order to make his offering the more palatable. There were about 30 present, all of whom made speeches under the monl- torship of George McCord, who acted as toastmaster. Crawfish, bacon and the usual "trimmings" were also served. GLOBE THEATER OPENS HTJXDREDS ATTEVD PERFORM ANCE AT SEW HOUSE. PRESS CLUB HAS FEAST Musician, Magician .and lecturer Add to Evening's Entertainment. Another of the now .famous "Dutch treat" affairs at the Press Club was attended by a large gathering of "Saturday ntghters" at the clubrooms last night. The principal feature of the programme was an interesting lecture on the Hawaiian Islands, delivered by Walter G. Smith, who is now touring the Pacific Coast under the auspices of the Hawaiian Promotion committee. The lecture was illustrated by slides.. George Raymond, the eminent ma gician, was present and delighted the clubmen with his fancy illusions while Fred Vowles tilled in between numbers with musical skit numbers. "Clam bordelaise" was served in inimitable style by the famous Press Club chef, William Souls, who fully demonstrated to all present that he was still "some" artist with the clams. In spite of his defeat yesterday at the hands of Louis Wachsmutb. "PADDED" CHOWDER WINS Press Club Chef Loses In Contest With iouls Warhsmuth. A spirited but nevertheless friendly contest in the miking of good old fashioned clam chowder was waged In a rather unusual way at the Oregon Fireproof Structure Will Accommo date 800 Persons Fine Organ Is Notable Feature. I To the hundreds who visited the Globe Motion - Picture Theater at lte opening performance Saturday night. It seemed as though the management had not spared expense In looking after the comfort of the audience and In making a beautiful theater. What is more, films truly wonderful in char acter and of a remarkable clarity were presented, interspersed with songs and selections on the organ. Entering the theater., the first the observer will notice is the. spacious aisles, and the freedom with which the spectator is able to walk to his seat. This Is due to the sacrifice of more than 100 seats by the manage ment, with the purpose of doing away with the cramped feeling so common in some theaters. Accommodation is made for 800 persons, and last night, though the theater was filled so that manv were kept standing, there was no crowding. As announced by J. L. Cohen, the idea of the proprietors is to supply the very highest form of entertain ment, coupled with education. Films of the latter nature will be shown at every performance. In connection with their desire to present only films fit for all, a strict personal censorship is placed upon the films before they are shown here, in addition to the National censorship. Three films sent here as especially suitable were rejected by the managers. ' In addition to the moving pictures, an especial attraction Is the wonderful organ that has been erected. It was built for the theater, and the manu facturers sent an employe to measure the hall and to test its acoustics. It has taken almost six months to build the instrument, which was completed Just before the opening performance. It is supplemented by an echo organ and by chimes. The building Is fireproof, and has far more, exits than is legally neces sary, while the space devoted to aisles and between the seats is more than sufficient. The theater is a daylight one. In other words, films can be shown equal ly as well In the day time as at night, and to avoid delays every worker is duplicated. Last night's programme contained some humorous pictures, an education al reel and a reproduction of a ship on fire at sea. By a system of chang ing the colors of the films the eyes are not tired, even by the two long reels necessary to portray this latter picture. Selections on the organ and songs by Miss Ruth Reed, who possesses a con tralto voice, completed a programme highly interesting, entertaining and educational. The scenic effects and the tasteful decoration of the building were noted and appreciated on all sides.

STOCK TAKEN, IS CHARGE Secretary of Treasury Under Roose. velt Aided Moore to Promote Company-Attorney Explains Shaw's Action In Case. Roosevelt Held to Be Dangerous Nation Taft Said to Be Out of Harmony With Progress. DENVER, Colo.. Sept. 15. W. J. Bryan has opened his campaign fn the West in behalf of woodrow Wilson and the Democratic National ticket. Be fore a large audience In the Auditorium he denounced both William H. Taft and Theodore Roosevelt as unworthy of election. Mr. Bryan spoke vigorously against the third term. "It would open a door which no man might be able to close." he declared. Mr. Bryan's argument against Taft was that he was not in harmony with the progressive spirit of the day. "He already has been repudiated," Mr. Bryan said, by a majority of his own party; so he cannot hope to poll more than one-third of the vote of the country, if that large a proportion." The speaker disputed Colonel Roose velt's right to . the leadership of the progressive movement. "The Democratic party was lighting for all the National reform measures when Mr. Roosevelt was opposing them," he declared. "Mr Roosevelt's position on the trust question and on the third term are dangerous to the country. Mr. Bryan dwelt at length upon Col onel Roosevelt's attitude on the trusts, and his relations to George W. Per kins and the United States Steel Corporation.

Tne assassin es caped. SEATTLE, Sept 15. Affidavits inti mating that Leslie M. Shaw. ex-Secre tary of the Treasury,- aided James A. Moore to promote the Western Steel Corporation, which has been through one Federal receivership and is now in the state courts on petition by Moore for another, were filed in the Superior Court today by the Metropolitan Trust Company of New York, which is being sued by Moore for 31,000,000 damages alleged to have resulted from the first receivership. The Metropolitan Trust Company at tempts to show by the affidavits that Mr. Shaw aided Moore in obtaining a 3600,000 loan from the trust company and that Shaw received 750 shares of Western Steel stock with no record of having paid for it. - Telegrams Are Quoted. Among the affidavits are copies of letters and telegrams that passed be tween Mr. Shaw and Mr. Moore re garding a visit by Shaw to General Brayton Ives, president of the Metro politan Trust Company. The following excerpts are taken from the - affidavits of Miss Grace Dickey, who swears she is in charge of the files of the Western Steel Corporation. From James A. Moore to Governor Leslie M. Shaw, under date April 19, 1911: 'Dear Governor: Inclosed please find copy of letter today sent to General Brayton Ives; when you call on him don't fail to extol the virtues of James A. Moore and the possibilities of West ern Steel Corporation. Use the strong est adjectives that you have and give a sustaining power there that will be without question the strongest Indorse ment that you can give. Tell him that you expect to buy some stack in the corporation and believe that every dol lar's worth of stock in Western Steel will be selling at par value within one year. . "Be Positive ' In Word. ' Please don't fail to do this. Gov ernor, at your - earliest opportunity. Don't qualify any statements that you make; simply make them positive and in the superlative degree. Please drop me a line after your interview with General Ives." Shaw's answering telegram to the foregoing, under1 date of New York, April 25. to Moore, .said: Have made the deposit and sung a eood son? and' impressed them, with cold-chisel sample of knotted steel." Miss Dickey swears this original re ceipt of Shaw's appears on file: Received of Western Steel corpora tion certificate 535, covering 250 shares of preferred stock, and certificate 478. covering 500 shares of common stock of Western Steel Corporation. One thousand shares more of common due me. Dated 13th day of August, 1911." The books do not show that fanaw Miss Dickey in her affidavit recounts that in the middle of September, 1911 about three weeks before the company passed into bankruptcy, the trustees of the Western Steel Corporation dlscov ered that stock sales were being made and passed a resolution disavowing all stock sales and resigning In a body, all but two members leaving the board. Miss Dickey declares it to be her be lief that the company was utterly In solvent at that time, but that stock sales were continued. Copies of telegrams from Moore, to Warren Hilton, secretary of the West ern Steel Corporation dated In July, 1911. and Instructing him not to let the books show a loss by operation, but to make charges to construction work were also filed. Date of Loan at Issue. Scott Calhoun, attorney for Moore, said tonight that the correspondence between Mr. Shaw and Mr. Moore is dated after the 3600,000-loan was made and doubtless Mr. Shaw was using his efforts to Induce the Metropolitan Trust Company to live up to a prior agree ment alleged by Moore to have been made by which the trust company was to supply $2,000,000 to Moore. It is charged by Moore In the suit brought against the Metropolitan Trust Com pany that the $600,000-loan and the de mand for payment made a few months afterwards were made by the trust company for the purpose of wrecking the steel corporation. This the Metro politan Trust Company denies. SOCIALISTS ARE SCORED ATTACK ON EX-PRESIDENT RE SENTED BY ALL. C. W. Fulton, Opposed to Roosevelt, Says Regard for Truth Should Be Observed In Campaign. While leaders of all political parties in Portland are denouncing as infa mous and disgusting the attack on Colonel Roosevelt published in pam phlet form and distributed on the streets by members of the propaganda committee of the Socialist party, dur ing the ex-President's visit here, the Socialist party itself is divided into two contending factions, one upholding the action of the committee and the other denouncing It as improper. A lively factional fight is expected at a Socialist meeting called for Tuesday night, at which the pamphlet will be brought up for Indorsement by the party. As yet the attack has not received the sanction of the party as a whole, but has been adopted by the propa ganda committee. Socialist leaders and street speakers are for the most part not in favor of the screed. It Is the work of a rabid class of persons," said one Socialist leader last night. "In Germany we had the same sort of trouble. It nuris our cause ana x, tor one, will attempt to have the persons responsible kicked out ot tne party." Political leaders, regardless of their stand on the National issues, are up in arms over the pamphlet, brandings it as an Insult to Americanism and decency. They all insist that the persons re sponsible should be punished. ' ' - C. W. Fulton, ex-United States Sena tor, said yesterday: T need not say. for I believe it is quite generally known in this vicinity that I am neither an admirer nor sup porter of Colonel Roosevelt. I do not regard him as either a sincere man or a safe leader of the people, hence, as a candidate for the Presidency, I hope to see him defeated. "I hope, even more earnestly, how ever, that the opposition to him will be conducted on lines of decency and with, at least, ordinary regard for the truth, as opposition to every candidate for public office should be. The pamph let distributed Wednesday does not ad vance arguments against the candi dacy of Colonel Roosevelt, but assails him and members of his family In language too utterly vile and filthy to be repeated. It is, in truth, one of the most scandalous and disgusting documents I have ever seen. Of course, no respectable citizen of Portland will justify or defend such an attack, but. if the authors' ot this paper shall be permitted to go unpun ished, we not only invite repetition of the offense, but. in a measure, assume responsibility therefor. It is my judg ment that the Mayor should personally take the lead in a movement to hunt down and bring to punishment the of fenders. Possibly he has already en tered upon the work. If so, he should receive the active support of all good citizens. If he has not taken the mat ter in hand, then an organization of citizens should be at once formed to do so. Not in the interest of Colonel Roosevelt or his candidacy, but in de fense of .the good name of this com munity and our loyalty to decency and the laws of hospitality.' Dr. Henry Waldo Coe, National com mitteeman from Oregon, of the Bull Moose party, said: "I do not take this disgusting pamphlet as an insult to Colonel Roosevelt; I take it as an in sult to common decency and civiliza tion. No person with any .sense of honor or honesty would be the author of or responsible for such an outrage. ' "The Socialist party is the great champion of free speech, yet when one of eur great statesmen comes here they attempt to interfere with him. They shout their lungs .out for free speech and yet they are not willing that every body else should have the same priv ilege. They insult and slander' our speakers, and I dare say they would be ready to shed blood If those not be lieving in Socialism should interfere with their idea of free speech. No body objects to them blocking the streets night after night the year around, yet when we attempt to have a meeting they are out with insults such as that contained In the pam phlet." George Arthur Brown, state chair man of the Bull Moose party, said last night that the pamphlet of the Social ists was too filthy for decent people to pay any attention, to. "People who have any humanity about them are not paying attention to such things," he said. "Such actions as this hurt the Socialists far more than they hurt any one else. C B. Moores, chairman of the Re publican state central committee, de clared last night that the proposition should not be dropped without some punishment of those responsible. "The person who wrote that pamphlet and the persons who distributed the copies on the streets have committed an act which should justify them being given the full extent of punishment provided by the law. There is no excuse for such things. They cannot do any pos sible good to the Socialist party inas much as decent people will resent such a proposition as disgusting. If the So cialist party wants its ranks filled up with the bomb-throwing type of an archists and the unthinking scum of the earth this Is the way to get It. If not, the party should put a heavy foot on such actions." , Ralph Williams, Republican National committeeman, said 'that he considered the pamphlet disgusting. 'It would be hard for roe to tell just what I think of such a pamphlet as that put out when Colonel Roosevelt was in the city," he said. "No person with any degree of honesty or decency could approve of any such political campaign matter as that. I believe the persons responsible should be punished and I think the people of Portland owe it to the good name of the city to see that those responsible are prosecuted." Bert Haney, chairman of the Demo cratic State Central committee, said last night: "I think that screed is an outrage. I think the continuous in dulgence in such acts as the issuance of this doctrine will eventually be the cause of curbing real freedom of speech, which is the very thing the Socialists are most clamorous for." The police are investigating the af fair and the arrest of the authors and publishers of the pamphlet probably will be effected.

WOMAN'S FREEDOM IDEA MOTHER UPHOLDS DAUGHTER'S MARRIAGE CONTRACT. CAR SKIDS, DRIVER DROWNS Auto Plunges Into River and Chauf feur Meets' Watery Grave. RAYMOND, Wash, Sept. 15. (Spe cial.) Seaman Wallbaum. a chauffeur; aged 18, was drowned in the South Fork River, at the end of First street, this afternoon, when the car which he was driving skidded and crashed through the city dock at that point. A. Cllne, who witnessed the accident, attempted to rescue the young man with a board, but Wallbaum evidently had become too frightened to know how to avail himself of his opportunity, for, after grasping the end of the board, he fell back into the water, and sank out of sight. The body was re covered two hours later within a few feet of the place where he took the fatal plunge. Mrs. Chandler Dubious, However, About Clause Relating to Choice of Parental Responsibility. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15. Mrs. Julia Davis Chandler, whose daugh' ter, Mrs. Heluiz Chandler, is reported to have entered into an unusual pre nuptial agreement with Carleton W. Washburn, was much agitated today when shown the Los Angeles dispatch setting forth the marriage contract. "If my daughter has entered into pre-nuptial contract such as is de scribed, I have' no doubt that she was influenced by the unhappy marriages of many of her friends, -she said. "My daughter is a youner woman of high ideals and I have no doubt that she acted with a full and proper regard for her opinions and principles She has been a deep student of every subject relating to the emancipation of woman and may be carrying out her own ideas along that line in her marriage." While a certain lack of restriction placed upon the contracting parties meets with the approval of Mrs. Chandler, she was dubious about that clause of the contract which permits the assumption of other parental - re soonsibllity In case their mutual re gard for each other should languish.
