SALEM, Ore, June 4. Reports
were current here today that suits
would be started in the courts
within the next few days to enjoin
Senators Beals of Tillamook coun
ty and Garland of Linn county from
serving as nivmbers of the state
fish commission.
Attorneys here today said that
the appointments of Senators Beals
and Garland were in violation of
the state constitution, and would
be so construed under an opinion
of the state supreme court In the
case of Gibson against Kay, report
, ed in the tsth Oregon, on page
696.
Article 3 of the constitution pro
vides that the governmental af
fairs of the state shall be In three
departments, legislative, executive.
Including administrative and Judi
cial, and that no person connected
with any one of these three shall
infringe upon the other.
It was charged by attorneys that
Inasmuch as the state senators dic
tated the appointments under a po
litical agreement entered Into with
Governor Pierce at the last session
of the legislature they Infringed
upon the executive and administra
tive departments.
It is not likely that the governor
will take any action to recall the
appointments, but will be guided
by any decision that may be hand
ed down by the courts.

I'KKINO. June 4. M. Karakhan.
8ovlet ambassador to China, today
denied that his country was res
ponsible In any degree for hostile
activities of Chinese students at
Shanghai.
The Soviet ambassador said. In
his opinion America anight well
take this opportunity to prove pro
fessed friendship to China by
standing aside, saying to the other
implicated powers:
" 'This is your , business, not
ours'.
"Why should America assume
any responsibility for Shanghai
outrages?" continued M. Karak
han. Every effort will be made to sad
dle America with a share of the
blame, the ambassador said, and
the American legation joining with
I other powers replying to the Chi
nese protest will be a tacit ac
knowledgement of respqislbillty.
"This Is America's opportunity
to take a stand which will further
promote friendly feeling upon the
part of the Chinese, particularly
the educational element, the
friendship of which America has
hitherto enjoyed," M. Karakhan
'added.
1 The ambassador's analysis of the
'situation was that Industrial condi
tions alone were responsible for
the rebellion of Shanghai workers,
pointing out there was ample evi
dence of that fact In the records
of foreign administrations in China

today denied that Soviet propa
ganda was responsible for disor
der, unrest and riot conditions,
now obtaining in Khanahat as tha
result of demonstrations by Chi
nese students protesting against
the action of the mixed court In
sentencing the strikers to jail.
The Soviet consul general de
clined to be Interviewed by news
paper men but he replied in writ
ing to a series of written ques
tions submitted to him, branding
the statements from other quar
ters attempting lo connect his
government with the disorders,
"as nothing else thun prevarica
tion aiming to discredit the Soviet
government." '
The reply of the Soviet consul
was made att-?r statements were
made that the i'eklng radlraln.
through Chinese and Moscow
agents, were supplying the fin
ances and directing the strikers
and demonstrations from Peking.
Announcement wns made also
that Chinese stuirenta. In oppo-ing

wing of the Kunmlntnng pjrty,
an organization of which the lute
Dr. Hun Yat Sen, first president
of the Chtnexe republic, was the

A Russian nnisnevist Is held In

LONDON. Jittre 4. A very
grava view Is taken here of the
disturbances at Shanghai and the .
outlook In China generally, fear j
being expressed, that things ara
moving toward a situation ro
semtding the Itoxer uprising.
As regards the agitation among
the workers and students, the edi
torial writers of the London pa
pers are almost unanimoua In at
tributing it to bolshevik Influ
ences, and the activity of the So
viet ambassador, M. Karakhan.
Aside from this feature the
whole position Is held to he
symptomatic of the utter disloca
tion and chaos existing In China
due to the lack of a strong central
government and tivs capacity and
contribution levies of the Tuchuns
or military governors.
The Times and other leading
papers see the only remedy In
earnest ar.-tfnn by the powers to
restore peace and order. The
Times say, they will soon have
a favorable opportunity as France
wHI shortly ratify the Washing
ton treaties, after which the tariff
conference, provided for by those
agreements will automatically,
come into existence.
"That will afford the best pos
sible occasion for common deliber
ations, a common decision and
presentation of the common de
mands with a common resolve
that those d"msnds must lie ac
cepted and observed" the paper
declares.
Further Indications of the seri
ousness of the general situation
in China was given today by dis
patches received by the Ilritlsh
official circles thst Chsng Tso-
, l.ln. the wsr lord of Manchuria, is
about to withdraw from the central
I coallt'on government of the ooun
try With aid which It Is reported
I will be supplied by Japanese inter
ests. Chat will attempt to take
jinking from the troops of Tieneral
Feng Yti'llalang. the "christian
'general", who has commanded the
city since the coalition was' form
ed. -
It was said lo official circles,
that the government was taking
all necessary steps to. safeguard
British suhjcts and Interests in
China. The sdmlrallty stated that
2.000 Ilritlsh bluejackets have
been landed at Shanghai and that
soon there will be reinforcements
stationed nearby, awaiting call.
The Ilritlsh cruiser Diomede has
arrived at Shanghai, and tire crui
ser Carlisle signalled near there
this morning. Part of the fourth
submsrine flotilla and gunboats
are expected to teach Shanghai
today.
WASHINGTON, June 4. Dis
