BLAME TO BE FIXED
: FOR THEATER CRUSH
Investigation Is Begun by
Several Agencies.
DEATH TOLL IS REDUCED
Dead List Rechecked Tragedy
Causes Postponement of So
cial Affairs for Week.
WASHINGTON, D. C Jan. SO. In
TeatlKation of the cause of the
Knickerbocker theater disaster, was
begun today by several agencies of
the District of Columbia government,
Kith the probability that congress
also might undertake exhaustive in
quiries. The senate Is expected to act to
morrow on a resolution by Senator
Capper, republican, Kansas, calling
for an Investigation by a senate com
mittee. Despite the announcement
by Representative Mondell, repub
lican leader, that the house would not
authorize an Inquiry until District of
Columbia officials have concluded
their Investigations, Kepresentative
Jtyan, republican. New York, charg
ing that the collapse of the roof was
due to faulty construction and would
Ttot have occurred bad there been
proper Inspection, offered a resolu
tion proposing an Investigation.
Blame' To Re Fixed.
District of Columbia officials de
clared they would go into every
Tlia."ie of the tragedy which occurred
Saturday night when the roof,
weighted with snow, fell on an audi
ence of several hundred, not only to
fix the blame, but to guard against
possible similar recurrence.
Colonel Charles Keller, engineer
commissioner, after surveying the
wreckage, declared he believed the
cave-in was caused by a defect in
material at some point of the roof's
support.
Plans for the support of the roof,
J-e asserted. Indicate that the ca
pacity for weight was greatly In ex
cess of any requirement in a climate
like Washington's.
Preliminary to an Investigation, the
federal grand Jury examined the
wreckage today.
Engineers to Inveatlgnte.
T. J. Ramsey Nevitt, district coro
ner, declaring he would spare no ef
fort in placing responsibility, re
quested Peyton Gordon, district at
torney, to ask the war department to
assign expert engineers to determine
the cause of the collapse.
Convinced that all bodies had been
removed from the Mebrls the search
for dead was halted temporarily after
40 hours" work. The last body was
removed last night. Building In
spector Healey ordered the walls
razed at once as a safety precaution
The possibility that the number of
dead might be less than 100 was seen
tonight after police had completed
a re-check of all names In the earlier
casualty lists and had made a thor
ough Inguiry covering undertaking
establishments and hospitals, as a re
sult it was said that the death list
ao far as definitely ascertained stood
at 5.
Test Namea Dropped.
Ten names In the list heretofore
given as dead were tentatively strick
en out .pending more definite news
of these persona. The ten had been
listed as "address unknown" and there
bad been ho Inquiries by relatives or
friends for such persons. These were
W. N. Crawford, Albert Baker, F. H
Hall, Paulus Lamby, L. L. Lehler. Mr
and Mrs. Riwsell Maine, D. N. Walsh,
Mlxs M. E. Walsh and a Mrs. Davis.
The condition of K. H. Shaughnessy,
econd assistant postmaster-general.
waa said tonight to be "improved," and
It waa addtid that he was expected to
recover.
Korlnl Affnlra Postponed.
The tragedy caused postponement
today of practically all. social affairs
planned for the week. President and
Mrs. Harding were to have been the
honor guests of the Ohio society at a
reception tonight, but. at the presi
dent's request, the affair was post
poned With the exception of five motion
picture houses controlled by the cor
poration which owned the Knicker
bocker, theaters were open today.
Harry Crandall. manager of the
Knickerbocker, In announcing that
other theaters in the Crandall chain
would remain closed, said this was
done because he and his associates
did not desire to accept money for
amusement while the city was mourn
ing for those who lost their lives at
the Knickerbocker.
Officials of three foreign govern
ments in statements today, expressed
i.rrow over the tragedy. They were
Jiaron Shidehara, Japanese ambassa
dor; M. Sarraut. head of the French
arms delegation, and Minister Brun
Of Denmark.
Dead List Revised.
Rerlsloa of the names of the dead
today brought out that Wyatt Mc
Klmmle and Jack McKlmmle, both
:sted as dead, were the same person
and not brothers, while Miss France
Bikle, a victim, also was listed as
'Miss M. C. Blkle." It was also dis
covered that while Howard W
Kneessl lost his life, an error had
been made In listing a son as dead.
William Walters. Brooklyn, N. Y a
ttudent at Georgetown Medical col
Hire, It was found, was listed twice as
dead
of the Portland office of the United
States Steel Products corporation. He
is also the brother-in-law of Senator
Smoot of Utah.
Mr. Eldridge lived for many years
in Salt .Lake City, his birthplace. His
Portland brother announced yester
day that ifclr. Eldridge's body would
be taken to Salt Lake City for burial.
He was a resident of Seattle and la
coma for a number of years.
STRAIN BV SNOW SCOUTED
Professor Thinks Three Feet Xot
Great Enough to Cause Coliaps'e.
CHICAGO, Jan. 80. The theater
catastrophe in Washington, D. C, Sat
urday night caused Alderman O'Toole,
chairman of the council building com
mittee, to order the theater sub-committee
to start an investigation im
mediately into the safety of the roofs
01 tne Chicago theaters.
In Washington the average snow
weighs about 7 or 8 pounds per cubic
foot, said Professor Henry J. Cox of
the Chicago weather bureau, in com
menting upon the caving in of the
roof of the Knickerbocker theater,
"if the snow was 3 feet deep on the
theater building, I doubt if there was
a strain of more than 20 pounds to
each square foot," he said.
Some Chicago architects expressed
doubt that such pressure would have
crushed in the roof and said they be
lieved investigation would develop
some structural strain. They pointed
out that Chicago building ordinances
require a roof which will support a
strain of GO pounds to the square foot.

SHANTUNG ISSUE SETTLED
(Continued From First Page.)
Hoot submarine resolutions into a
separate treaty and it may be ready
for submission to Wednesday's plen
ary session along with the naval
treaty.
A report on the traffic along the
Chinese eastern railroad which was
prepared for submittal to the special
conference sub - committee dealing
with that subject was said to show
that the business of the road natural
ly very heavy as one of only two
great arteries of trade between Man
churia and the Pacific ocean, is
steadily retrograding.
The Chinese who are managing
he road, except the portion near
Vladivostok, where the Japanese are
in control, explain this loss of busi
ness as due to the strangulation of
the road by the Japanese officials
at Vladivostok. Japanese reports,
however, charged great incompetence
on the part of the Chinese manage
ment and declare that In the face of
failing business, the Chinese have
more than doubled the operating per
sonnel, thereby greatly increasing ex
penses.

Actress Is Accused of Fraud Be
cause She Swore Her Only Res
idence Was Genoa, Jfev.
CARSON. Nev.. Jan. 30. The Ne
vada supreme court, after hearing
oral arguments today on a motion
of Attorney-General Fowler to have
the divorce obtained by Miss Pick
ford at Minden. March 2, 1920. an
nulled, took the case under advise
ment. The court has three months In
which to make a decision, unless the
case la resubmitted before that time.
Fowler, contended; that the divorce
of Mlsa Plckford from Owen E.
Moore, another motion picture actor,
waa obtained by fraud, since she de
liberately swore she had no other
residence than Genoa. Nev although
both she and her husband were bona
fide residents of Los Angeles.
Court Decision Cited.
The Nevada supreme court and the
supreme and appellate courts of
other states had declared the state
to be a third party In a divorce case,
he said, and he Intervened since Miss
Pickford had flouted the laws of
Nevada.
Gavin McNab of San Francisco, at
torney for Miss Pickford, assured
that the attorney-general's act was
"gratuitous and meddlesome action
and interference by a stranger, with
out warrant in law , and against pub
lic policy." He declared that the attorney-general
could not have ap
peared In the divorce action for
either side or as independent Inter
vener.' and the district court's action
was irrevocably final since neither
party had appealed..
No Pnrty Held Aggrieved.
Robert Richards, deputy state attorney-general,
opened the arguments
for the state, and P. A. McCarran, ex-
chief Justice of the Nevada supreme
court, followed McNab, ' saying that
there was no aggrieved party in the
case, and therefore no foundation for
the suit to annul the divorce decree.
The courtroom was crowded.
The points of the complete argu
ment we're on the sufficiency of MIbs
Pick ford's residence in Nevada prior
to her divorce, and on the right of
Attorney-General Fowler to intervene
in the divorce.
The court extended the time of
argument from one to two hours for
each side.
MeCarren, who followed McNab,
asserted that because one of the
parties In the divorce case was "not
of obscurity, but of world-wide
fame" and the matter was full of
human interest, the attorney-general
saw and embraced the opportunity of
getting publicity and "borrowed" the
name of the state of Nevada in bring
ing suit to annul the divorce.
FUNDS AREN0W READY
(Continued Prom First Page.)
plaining that the commissioners want
to think over the matter.
" The first detailed report that has
been made of ice and snow conditions
on the famous highway was submit
ted by Knglneer Kelley, who covered
the road last week under direction of
the state highway commission. Mr.
Kelley said that the road is open
from Portland to Mist falls, but from
Mist falls to a point one mile east
of Oneonta distance 3.8 miles the
highway Is buried from 4 to 16 feet
on the center line. Then there are
about 8000 feet free, or practically
so. From the point east of Oneonta
to Tanner creek it Is practically all
clear, with some four to eight-foot
drifts.
Snow Packed With Sleet.
The snow is packed with strata of
sleet and will melt by July, except in
the heavier drifts. The snow is not
packed bard enough so that powder
can be used effectively. A powder
man experimented with it last week,
the shots blowing out without shat
tering effect. Hydraulic, flame ma
chine, rock salt and steam streams
are all capable of removing the snow
and ice, said Mr. Kelly, but the most
practical method Is to break it up
and shovel it by handpower or steam
shovel. He Inclined toward the manual
plan.
Two projects were considered by
the engineer. The first was to clear
an eight-foot strip on the outside of
the pavement. This requires moving
20,000 cubic yards. Of this 7600 yards
would be side cast; 6700 yards would
have to 'go over the railroad tracks
and 6000 in end hauls. This project
would cost $7600. The second project
called for clearing full width of -the
highway. 61.000 cubic yards, divided
Into 19.500 yards side cast; 13,700 over
the tracks and 17.800 end haul. This
project would depend on the railroad
assisting with rotary and snow equip
ment. Cost of second project, $15,000,
which Includes $790 for work east of
Bonneville.
About 9IOOO Is Spent.
About $1000 has been spent in Rood
River county to save the parapet
walls and $2500 will clear the Hood
River section. Shell mountain is the
worst part In that county and Mr. j
Teon announced that there Is no use !
for the highway commission to clear
Shell mountain and up to the Multno-'
man line if Multnomah county doesn t
intend clearing Its end.
Considering the storm, very little
damage has been done to the high
way, according to Mr. iveiley, but in
places cracks have developed near the
edge of the pavement Into which
melted snow Is e-rsdually flowing and
as this freezes it will damage the
rock walls.
In submitting his proposal Mr. Lan
caster said that he would use. a
steam shovel. The right kind of
powder will break up the packed snow,
he asserted. He had no estimate as
to cost, but said he could clear the
highway, full width, in three weeks
Manual Labor Favored,
If it will cost $7600 to move the
obstruction with machinery, Mr. Teon
suggested that it would be better to
hire men as it would tend to relieve
the problem of unemployment. The
state department placed all its truck
equipment necessary at the disposal
of the county and also the engineer
ing force. The highway commission
had even inquired as to how labor
could be cared for. Mr. Kelley sug
gested a river steamer to house 200
men. Mr. Yeon said he had inter
viewed bus owners and they may take
workers to the Job and back in com
fortable, closed busses for about $1.25
a round trip. Some men can be board
ed at Bridal Veil.
S. B. Vincent, of the Oregon
Tourist bureau, and George O.
Brandenburg, of the Oregon State
Motor association, urged immediate
action in clearing the scenic highway.
"How to do it and what it will cost
is what we are trying to find out,"
declared Chairman Kudeen. "The
county has funds for the work. It is
a question for us to decide whether to
clear the highway by force account
or by contract."
The county commission Intimated
It might decide by Wednesday. While
there was a crowd which filled the
courtroom. It contained a large per
centage of contractors.
