OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Nov. 16. There -were unmistak
able evidence of joy on the faces of Sen
ators Foster and Ankeny today, -when the
President sent to the Senate the nomina
tion of Hugh C. Philips, of Goldendale,
k bo Rogister of the Land Office at Van
:ouvor. Wash., and simultaneously with
2row tho name of Frank E. Vaughn, who
iras last week nominated for the same
fllcc
Tho Senators were determined to pre
vent Vaughn's confirmation. If his nom
ination had not been withdrawn, and In
an lntoniew with tho President today
were prepared to make this statement.
The President, however, as soon as he
was told that Vaughn had been nomlnat
td, said the namo had gone to the Senate
by mistake, and without his knowledge,
fcnd would be immediately recalled, which
was done.
Tho President said he Intended all along
lo live up to his promise made tho Sen
ators last Spring, that they could namo
the new Rogister at Vancouver when the
Senate convened. He as promptly on
tholr recommendations prepared and sent
to tho Senate the name of Philips.
The Senators aro Inclined to gloat ybe
causc of Philips appointment, for .they
aro firmly convinced that Vaughn's "nom
ination a few days ago was brought about
by Secretary Hitchcock, who, they think,
smuggled in the name with several oth
ers, and by having It sent to the Senate
by the President hoped to give the im
prosslon that the President was favorable
to Vaughn's confirmation as against tho
appointment of Philips or any other man
the Senators might Indorse.
Philips Is sure to be confirmed, and it
Is presumed that when his bond is ap
proved, Vaughn will be reinstated In his

NEW LIEU LAND BILL.
Hermann Also Fathers Measure for
Oregon City Building.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. 16. In line with his belief,
as repeatedly expressed In his annual re
ports, while Commissioner of the General
Land Office, Congressman Hermann to
day introduced a bill to amend the lieu
land exchange law by providing that
wherever lands within forest reservations
are relinquished to tho government and
other vacant surveyed public lands are
taken in exchange therefor, the lands so
Eolectcd must be of approximately the

vivors of tho Cayuse War have already
beon recognized.
He also Introduced a bill establishing

New Scheme to Increase the Circu
lation. '
CHICAGO, Nov. 16. Financier John
iiambert, of. this city, has what many
men In public life pronounce a feasible
scheme for increasing the country's cir
culation by about $50,000,000. The plan Is
simple. It will requlro only a brief
amendment of existing fiscal laws. For
this reason it is not probable the Idea
will be submitted to OongresB during the
present season. Several prominent mem
bers of both Houses have discussed tho
project with Mr. Lambert, and have ex
pressed themselves In favor of it.
Condensed in a sentence, Mr. Lambert
would have each National Bank take out
In actual circulation not less than eight
tenths of its capital stock and empower
the Secretary of the Treasury to deposit
In the National Institutions all revenues
over and above a fair working balance.
Before starting for New York and Wash
ington, where he will confer with finan
ciers and members of the National Legis
lature, Mr. Lambert commented on his
financial plan as follows:
"To my mind, there are too many banks
doing business with practically no circu
lation. On September 9, the date of thei
last call by the Controller of the Cur
rency, the capital stock of all the Na
tional Banks totaled $753,733,000. Against
this there was a circulation of only $375,
038,000, or 49.76 per cent. You will see that
If the banks were to take out the circu
lation to which they are entitled, the cur
rency would be enhanced by $300,000,000,
without a dollar of "inflation.
"I shall also suggest that the revenue
law be changed so as to authorize the
Secretary of tho Treasury to deposit the
surplus revenues with the exception of
about $50,000,000 for a working balance
with the National Banks, the Secretary
to charge, say 1 per cent for the use of
the funds. To secure tho Government's
deposits, the banks should furnish good
state, county and city bonds, mortgages,
such as would be approved by a compe
tent commissioner or by largo Insurance
companies for trust investment.
"The Government, of course, should
have a first, lien on all the assets of tho
bank, in case of insolvency. My scheme
would add approximately $203,000,000 to
the circulation and Increase the total by
$500,000,000."

Bpooner4 Introduces the Bill Moody
Got Through the House.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. 16. Senator Spooner today
Introduced In the Senate the bill which
Representative Moody had passed through
the House last session, providing that all
qualified homesteaders who, under order
of tho General Land Office of October 22,
1SSL made- settlement upon and improved
any portion of the ordered sections within
the conflicting limits of the Northern Pa
cific and The Dalles Military Wagon
Road grant. In Eastern Oregon, and who
wore thereafter prevented, by decision of
the Suprome Court from perfecting title
to such lands, and were ultimately ousted,
shall, in making final proof upon home
stead onirics made for other lands, be
given credit for the period of their bona
fide residence on the land or their Improve
ment of the land for which they were
unable to obtain title. In order to secure
these benefits, however, such settlers
must make entry within two years.

CHOYNSKI FIGHTS TO A DRAW
Californian Goes Six Fast and Furi
ous Rounds With Hart.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16. Marvin Hart
and Joe Choynskl went six rounds to a
draw at the Washington Sporting Club to
night. The bout was fast, both men tak
ing severe punishment, and both were
bleeding freely at the close.
The two fighters started out at a terrific
pace, hitting right and left with telling
effect. There was no perceptible difference
in the men during the first two rounds.
In the third round, Hart sent Choynskl
to the floor with a terrific punch on the
jrfw. Choynskl remained on the floor until
the referee counted eight, and then rose
to his feet and came back vigorously at
Hart, but the latter managed to hold his
own. The fourth round was rather tame,
but in the fifth the men again went at
each other with terrific smashes and
rights and lefts. In the sixth round. Hart
hit Choynskl almost at wIlL The latter
was weakening rapidly and was a little
groggy until 30 seconds from the end of
tho round when he rallied. Ho rushed
at Hart and kept puncnlng him until the
bell announced the end of the fight.
Notwithstanding the amount of punish
ment received, neither man was badly
hurt.

Police Force Will Be Increased by
Five Hundred Men, and Screens
Protect the Gripmen
From Missiles.
CHICAGO, Nov. 16. Encouraged by tho
successful operation of a regular. servlco
on the Wentworth-avenue lino today, the
management of tho Chicago City Railway
announced tonight that an effort would bo
mado tomorrow to resume traffic on the
Cottage Grove-avenue cable line. The In
tention Is to start trains early In tho
morning, and unless too much opposition
is met with the service will be gradually
extended later In the day.
Fivo hundred policemen will bo added,
tomorrow to tho number already detailed
to guard tho property of the company.
This additional force will be assigned to
tho Cottage Grove-avenue line, and the
cars will bo run under the same protec
tion as those on Wentworth avenue.
Screens have been, provided for the grip
cars to shield the grlpmen, and the trains
will be run at a high rate of speed In an
effort to prevent crowds from blocking
tho tracks.
Riots Are Frequent.
Although considerable Interference
marked the operation of tho Wentworth
avenue branch today, still a flve-mlnuto
servlco was maintained throughout tho
day, and an attempt will be mado tomor
row to install a closer schedule. Riots
were frequent all along the line, but the
police charged, on the crowds with such
quickness and farce that but one serious
blockade was roe with. When tho last
of tho 25 cars thatnad beon in tho service
reached tho barn at 4:30 o'clock tonight, it
was decided to suspend further traffic until
tomorrow morning.
Small Hope of Peace.
The inquiry of the State Board of Arbi
tration asking that the difficulty be sub
mitted to arbitration, it was announced
tonight, would be replied to tomorrow by
S. R. Bliss, counsel for the company.
The communication, It is said, will agree
to arbitration of the wage question only,
and will entirely ignore tho demands of
the men that the recognition of tho union
also be submitted to tho board. As the
latter jclausein the demands of the men
has been the 'stumbling block' all along to
a peaceable settlement of the trouble, it is
said there is little chance, for the present
at least, of a conciliatory adjustment of
the controversy.
Reports to the effect that union men
were going over to the company and
deserting- the organization are declared
by both President M. C Buckley and
Secretary L. D. Bland, of the union, to
be falsehoods. Said President Buckley:
"Within the last four days 75 men
have mado application to join the union.
Among this number are many who have
worked for the company for years and
who heretofore have refused to join tho
union."
Tho company started two boilers at
Fifty-second and State streets power
house today, where 20 nonunlonists
have quartered as though In a hotel.
At tho State-street power-house 15 men
had been similarly installed. Twelve
strikebreakers were smuggled into tho
barns at West Seventy-seventh street
and Vincennes Road,
Strikers Stone Passengers.
' Cases aro becoming numerous
where passengers who ride under police
protection on cars manned by non
union crews, it Is alleged, havo been
followed, by strike sympathizers after
leaving the cars and been beaten or
stoned. Tho first case in which wom
en figured Is that of Miss Beatrice Kim
bark and her mother, who assert that
they were assailed by a crowd near
Thirty-ninth street and Wentworth
avenue. Miss Kimbark has sworn out
a warrant charging Charles Harper, a
union conductor, with having struck
her In the face.
Tho strikers aro making much of an
attack on Mayor Harrison by Clarence
S. Darrow, who was one of the counsel
for the miners In the big anthracite
coal strike, and who has been ono of
Maybr Harrison's strongest supporters
politically. Mr. Darrow has declared
that if the street-car strikers aro beat
en Mayor Harrison, will be responsible
for the reason of having authorized tho
arrangements whereby tho police ride
in all the cars that are being operated.
According to Mr. Darrow, also, tho
Mayor, in conducting negotiations for a
renewal of the company's franchise,
could, by a little pressure, promptly
force tho company to arbitrate.
As part of a plan of the Street Railway
Men's Union for a campaign of education
In the fight on the city railway, circulars
were sent broadcast today dealing with the
financial features of the "richest street
railway corporation" In tho country. The
body of the circular is an extract from
the Chic Federation's report on the City
Railway. The report says that in 16
years the company has earned 44 2-3 per
cent on the capital Invested. The real
value of the company's property, it says,
"is $9,800,000. The market value Is $37,
$630,000, and the original cost, $12,OS4,000.
The circular concludes:
"And yet the Chicago City Railway
Company, by far the richest street rail
way company In the country, cannot af
ford to pay Its employes fair wages and
grant them decentxhours of work."
The State Board of Arbitration re
mained in continuous session today await
ing a reply from the railway company re
garding the board's profler of voluntary
arbitration with the alternative of
compulsory Investigation which the
board IS" empowered to make. At a confer
ence of the union officials a call was
Issued for a meeting of thej)filcers of

Miners Reject Peace Terms.
DENVER, Nov. 16. Contrary to the ex
pectation that obtained on Saturday, coal
mining was not resumed today In the
Northern Colorado field, the operators'
proposition to concede an eight-hour day
pending the result of the strike In South
ern Colorado, having been rejected by the
miners. Information from the southern
field is to the effect that neither the odg-
rators nor the strikers showany signs of
weakening and a prolonged struggle is
now expected.
Because of lack of coal, owing to the
miners' strike, the Rocky Mountain Paper
Company has closed its mills for an Indefi
nite period, throwing over.200 persons out
of employment. I
It Is possible that another confer
ence looking to the settlement of the
strike In Northern Colorado will bo ar
ranged In a few days. Both the operators
and many of the miners were disappointed
at the failure to come to an agreement
on Saturday. The majority against a set
tlement was so small that it Is believed
that if It can be arranged to'have another
ballot taken those who favor a settlement
will be in the majority. j

PIANO LETTER NO. 11
Piano Buyers Today wo aro going to
tell you where your piano troubles begin,
and if you will follow out our suggestions
you will save yourselves a heap of trouble
and perplexity.- It Is, according to the
old adage, "a wise man who lctteth not his
right hand know what his left hand
doeth," and wo are almost tempted to
believe that tho man who wrote It was
thinking of the piano business when he
did it
Piano Buyers Keep your business to
yourselves. Don't tell every dealer that
asks you what piano you havo looked at
In some other store. The reliable dealer
doesn't caro to know, and tho unreliable,
one only wants a chance to "run It down"
and pit some cheaper instrument against
it, hoping to strike a balance in his favor
by "talking price." Some dealers aro more
prone to launching abuse at their compet
itors' pianos than to dissertating on tho
merits of their own goods. Such dealers
should be shunned by every sensible buyer.
When a dealer shows an Inclination to
want to know what piano you have looked
at, which piano you rather favor so far,
what price has been quoted you, all be
fore he shows any Inclination to tell you
about HIS goods and prices, he betrays
his weakness and a lack of confidence In
his ability to meet open, honest competi
tion on equal footing. Should you be so
unwise as to tell him all he asks of you,
you have placed at his disposal a com
plete survey of a battle-ground which will
prove your Waterloo unless you are far
more worldly wise than most people.
Now, Piano' Buyers, while we KNOW
that all the "looking around" in the whole
world will not secure you a GOOD piano
at a better price or on more desirable
payment arrangements than wb are able
and willing to tender you, still you are
going to "look around" anyway, so gd
ahead. What you look at or what prices
are quoted you does not concern us In tho
least.
We do not gauge our prices by the size
of our customer's pocketbook, neither do
we shape our coursNe by what any com
petitor may have said to you.
We have our own Ideas regarding the
equitable and honest way of conducting
our business and should you place your
confidence In us your Interests will be
safe In our hands.
But don't forget that "a wise man
keepeth his own council."
Very truly yours,

URGE PARTY FOR UNION MEN.
Federation of Labor Delegates See
Financial Depression Ahead.
BOSTON, Nov. 16. Two spirited debates
enlivened which would otherwise have
been a dull session at tho convention of
the American Federation of Labor at
Faneull Hall today. Tho first was upon
the question of whether tha Federation
should grant a charter to the insurance
agents of the country, and after a some
what acrimonious discussion the
matter was referred to the Executive
Council. This was regarded by the dele
gates as a defeat of the plan to or
ganize and charter Insurance agents.
The second debate was upon the sub
ject of Industrial depression. It was call
ed forth by the report of the committee
on the President's report, indorsing the
statement of President Gompers that a
period of Industrial depression was com
ing. Several delegates expressed their
opinion that no depression was probable,
but the Socialist delegates insisted that
the President's forecast was true. They
urged as a possible preventative not only
organization on trades union lines, but
also the formation of a political organi
zation by labor workers.
