THE MORNING OREGONIAN. THURSDAY, MAT 3, 1906. FIGHT IN STREETS Paris Workmen Devote Energy to Skirmishes. TROOPS REMAIN ON GUARD Division on the Eight-Hour Strike Causes Many Conflicts Soldier Refuses to Shoot Seized Bombs Most Deadly. PARIS. May 2. The main force of the labor movement as it affects the city and the country appears to have spent itself on Tuesday, although detached moements continue lo aEitate various trades, requiring constant surveillance by the police and the continued presence in Paris of a considerable force of troops. However, the authorities, while prepared to meet any further widespread demon stration, no longer treat the movement as a serious menace to the community. The public, which for a week has been deeply agitated and fearful, has resumed its usual tranquillity, the central sections of the city have recovered their normal aspect and business is proceeding: as usual. All the stores were open today and traffic by cabs, street railways, etc., was not Interfered with. The cavalry and Infantry have been withdrawn from the Bourse, the Bank of France and other financial centers, where they had been held in readiness for eventualities. Many Fights With Workmen. Nevertheless the working districts to day continued In a state of efTervescence with small affrays, none, however, as suming proportions requiring interven tion by the troops. The latter remained under arms throughout the day at the Prince Eugene barracks In the Place de la Republlque. Occasionally a single company made a tour of the square as a suggestive warning to groups of loiter ers. Toward nightfall a squadron of cavalry was drawn up facing the Labor Exchange, as it was feared the close of the afternoon meeting of the various trades would result in another demon stration. The precaution proved unneces sary and platoons of police maintained order, compelling the crowds to keep moving and making frequent arrests of loiterers. The surroundings of the Place de la Republlque today showed the effects of Tuesday's disorders. A kiosk at the Boulevard de Magenta had been overturned, many pickets protecting; trees had been torn off, an omnibus overturned lay in the road and the pavement was torn up. Divisions Cause Conflict. The situation among the working men has not yet become definite. Some trades are resuming work and others have decided not to resume un til the eight-hour working day is con ceded. At the Prefecture of Police to night It was estimated that three fourths of the workmen had returned to their ta?ks, the remaining one fourth, continuing on strike. These latter are mainly masons and stone cuttters. The divisions within the trades, some striking and others not striking,' cause many individual conflicts, as non strikers are being solicited to join those who have walked out. Four msnons w.re arrested whiV they were seeking to force non-strikers to join in the movement. Another group tinging the "International" encoun tered a platoon of police, when some of the strikers drew revolvers and fired shots, but without doing Injury. Several carpenters were arrested for seeking to Interfere with other car penters working In a factory. In the suburbs and other factory centers there were isolated conflicts between strikers and non-strikers. At Helleville gendarmes and a platooon of cavalry dispersed strikers who were attempting to interfere with workers. A sentry at a suburban railway cross ing was fired on by some unknown person. Resolve to Continue Strike. Several trades, including the jewel ers, this afternoon met in the Labor Exchange and decided to continue the strike. The Jewelers' union adopted a resolution that the "working Jewelers, numbering; 6000, decide to continue the strike to tho bitter end. until com plete satisfaction Is given to their protest against police brutality, and that the meeting condemn the arrest of unoffending comrades." Another resolution welcomed the sympathetic action of Lieutenant Tisurand de Iang and appleaded to officers mid soldiers to testify their friendship for tne workingmen. Detached bodies of workingmen, who hae continued on strike, are causing some disorder. A gang of 300 laborers this evening sought to damage one of the excavations of the .Metropolitan subway, but were driven off after a tussle with the police. A portion of the carpenters' organisa tion held a meeting today and decided by a vote of lnoft to ao to continue on strike. A large number of tailors" hands have also struck, causing some interruption In the manufacture of men's and women's garments. Claims Purpose Is Gained. The Confederation of Labor apparently has ceased its efforts to centralize the movement, owing to the arrest of its principal officers. M. Grlffuols, who is the virtual head of the organization, ap plied for a conditional release on the grounds of 111 health. One of the acting chief of the Confederation. M. Deiaille, tonight summed up the situation as fol lows: "The Confederation has achieved Its chief role to stimulate the trades to de mand the eight-hour day. It now remains for the workmen to achieve the end for which- we have prepared the way. It is too early to lodge of the effect of the movement, but it is too thoroughly in grained In the workmen of France to ba defeated for a single day." Concerning the continuance of the agi tation DelSalle said that a pacific propa ganda would be continued. The Confed eration, he said, was not responsible for the Xlay-5ay violence, which was solely the work of disturbers having little real sympathy or connection with labor. Soldier Throws Down Gun. Many dramatic incidents are related of the events of Tuesday. A soldier of the Nineteenth Infantry Regiment, refusing to obey when his regiment was com manded to preserve order at the Tlvoll Vauxhall. threw hi rifle, bayonet and cap on the ground, shouting: "I am a Socialist and I will not march against the people." He was arrested. The workmen re garded this, following the Lieutenant De Ijinge Incident, as showing that sym pathy with the labor movement is ex tending in the army. Bombs Most Destructive. The municipal laboratories' examina tion of the cylindrical bomb which was discovered Tuesday night at the Auster IHs viaduct shows that the missile was of sn extremely dangerous description and that only an Imperfect fuse pre vented, an exuloaioD, the consequences of which would have been terrible. The bomb contained 27 Bmoke'.ess cartridges. 150 bullets imbedded in wax and a large quantity of powder. Several other bombs found last night also were extremely ex plosive. Of the total number of persons arrested- during the rioting on Tuesday. 173 were arraigned today on various charges. Sixty-one were sentenced to terms of Imprisonment varying from two days to six months. Among the number was M. Marie, secretary of the book printers' union, who was sentenced to four months' imprisonment. Reports from the provinces show that many of the strikes have ended. There were few riots today. BKIXG SILTA.N TO HIS SENSES Britain Threatens to Blockade Ports of Turkey. LONDON, May 2. "Unless Turkey quickly withdraws her troops from Tabah, Great Britain will take action which will bring the Sultan to his senses," said an official of the Foreign Office today. "Thus far England has shown ex treme patience, listening quietly to the contentions of the Turkish Ambassador that the district occupied belongs to the Sultan's Empi-e. but Insisting that the troops must be withdrawn before the boundary question is discussed." It is thought probable that Great Britain's action will be In the nature of a demonstration by the British Med iterranean fleet at Turkish ports. BAMBATA BREAKS HIS TRAP Zulu Rebel GHins Recruits and Raids Throughout Natal. PlETERMARITZBURa. May 3. (Spe cial.) Once again the rebel Zulu chief tain Bambata has broken through a trap set for him by the British forces, and is now sweeping the country south of Nkomo Hill, burning kraals and destroy ing all crops. Bambata has been reinforced by 1000 armed Kaffirs, and. with the large force now at his command, fears are enter tained that he will cut off the British at tacking column. WITTE IS OUT AT LftST GUREMYKIN CHOSEN AS NEW RUSSIAN PREMIER. Weak Man With Reactionary Ten dencies' No Ceremony at Open ins of Parliament. ST. PETERSBURG. May 2. The im perial rescript announcing the retirement of Count Witte from the Premiership, which had been expected to appear in the Official Messenger tomorrow and which will mark the termination of the "Witte regime, will not be published to morrow, but to all intents and purposes M. Goremykin has assumed the helm. The first evidence' of altered policy is the announcement of a change in the plans for the opening of the National Parliament, the ceremonial of which, according- to- a- semi-official Intimation, would be cut to the minimum. Possibly It Is considered that even without the blare of the imperial trumpets and the glitter of a pompous opening the Parlia ment will stand so much In the limelight tiiat its dissolution, if found necessary, wiild involve sufficient risk. It is stated tonight with great Insist ence that Minister of Justice Akymoff also will accompany Count Witte Into retirement, though not as a friend of the ex-Premier. He was in fact one of the staunchest supporters of Interior Minister Durnovo In his recent battle with Count Witte and made himself even more detested than Durnovo In Liberal circles, as the framer of the temporary laws under which Durnovo assumed to act against the reformers. His successor, it is stated, will be Cheglovitoff, at pres ent Assistant Minister of Justice. The view Is advanced in some circles that the reactionlsm of M. Goremykin, owing to the caliber of the man. may not be much worse than the "Liberalism" of the last few months. It is intimated that he is not a man of sufficient strength to Initiate and carry through a formida ble campaign of reaction, while his tacti cal mistakes would be eagerly pounced upon by the keen and united opposition which has been built up during the cam paign. Privy Councillor Goremykin was Min ister of the Interior from 1S95 to 1S99, and has taken a prominent part in Russian political life, especially during the revo lutionary period of the last few years. His administration as Minister of the Interior was not marked by harshness and his name has never been mentioned as one of the likely victims of the Ter rorists. 'who assassinated two of his im mediate predecessors. PARTIES HOLD CONTENTIONS Socialists Plan Rebellion, While the Czar Puts Trust in Ikons. ST. PETERSBURG, May 2. Practically all the political parties have planned to hold conventions between now and the date (May 101 of the assembling of Parlia ment, for the purpose of elaborating their political programmes for the" future. The most imjortant of these meetings Is that of the Constitutional Democrats, which will begin May 4. The Social Democrats' convention began a secret sitting today with 122 delegates present, including not only Russians, but representatives of the Polish Social Democrats and Jewish Bund and the Ietts. Caucasians. Little Russians and Finnish organizations. Quite a number of the delegates have been arrested while on their way here. The ostensible object of the meeting is the unification of the organizations, but the real purpose L to perfect plans for a general uprising. The Jewish convention, at which the members-elect of that faith will be present, will assemble next Sun day to formulate preliminary tactics and demands. The Conservatives and Law and Order "party will also hold a convention the same day. The religious features of Parliament will not be neglected. Like all the state institutions of "Holy Russia." the Taurlde Palace, where Parliament will assemble, has now been equipped with a profusion of Ikons. These sacred pictures, before each of which burns a taper, hang In the corners of the lower house and in the various committee rooms, and most of the Russian saints, ail of those who are credited with working miracles of some sort, rfre represented. About one-third of the SS images are of Saint Nicholas, the miracle-worker. Besides these there are 20 portraits of the Virgin, which are sup posed to have been painted by super human hands. Suit Against North-Bank Road. OLYMPIA. Wash.. May 2. Opecial.) On the ground that the Harriman north bank road is paralleling the O. R. & IS"., in violation of the Washington constitu tion, suit has been brought to forfeit the charter of the Columbia Valley Rail road Company by Prosecuting Attorney Sparks, of Clark County. Sparks has called on the Attorney-General of the state to assist him. HIKE SEEMS SURE Mineworkers Are Not. in a Humor to Back Down. NEILL SEES MITCHELL United States Labor Commissioner, It Is Expe1?ted, Will Make a Personal Report to Pres ident Roosevelt. SCRANTON, Pa.. May 2- That the Tri-District Convention of the United Mineworkers of America, which opens In this city tomorrow morning, will de clare a strike throughout the hard-coal fields is the opinion here tonight of everyone in touch with the situation. It seems that there is no way out of a strike unless the Mineworkers back down, and all of the delegates who are coming to town tonight are very far from favoring anything closely ap proaching a backdown. President John Mitchell arrived here this morning. This afternoon he met with the members of the Joint scale committee and presented for their con sideration a copy of the committee re port, which he had been preparing- for some days. The report was approved in Its entirety. At the conclusion of the meeting Mr. Mitchell said that the report would contain no recornmenda tions. . President Mitchell had a mysterious conference here today -with Dr. Charles P. Nelll, of Washington, United States Labor Commissioner and Sliding Scale Commissioner. Dr. Neill was met at the railroad station by J. J. Loftus, a close personal friend of President Mitchell, and taken immediately to Mr. Mitchell's office. Mr. Loftus had been notified over the long-distance tele phone by Ralph M. Easley, of New York, secretary of the Civic Federa tion, to moet Dr. Nelll and keep his presence in the city a secret. Immediately after .tha conference Dr. Nelll left for Wilkesbarre, and saia that he would go to Washington tomorrow morning. He would not say what the object of his visit was, except that he came in the interest of peace. He said he had been sent by no one. Asked if he was an envoy of President Roose velt, he said he had not seen the Pres ident for six weeks. Mr. Mitchell said that Dr.,Neill's visit was "of no great importance." It seemed to e the general belief here tonight that Dr. Neill will report to President Roosevelt upon the situ ation. It is believed that his confer ence was the result of an attempt on the part of the Civic Federation to "feel" Its way into the situation. The convention tomorrow will be at tended by 600 delegates. It is expect ed that the sessions will continue until Saturday, and If a strike order Is Is sued it will go into effect on Monday next. Molders Go on Strike. BUFFALO, N. Y., May 2. All the em ployes of the Iron foundries of Buffalo, Depew, Tonawanda, Lockport and Niag ara Falls, including molders coremakers and bclpers. went out on strike today. Thirty-six corporations, employing about 1200 molders and coremakers, are affected. Altogether about 10,000 employes are in volved. The cause of the strike is a demand for an increase of wages for the molders and coremakers. Granted a Nine-Hour Day. CINCINNATI, O., May 2. (Special.) One thousand union miners in Cin cinnati, O., and Covington and New port, Ky., today secured a nine-hour workday without reduction of pay. This was agreed on late this afternoon at a conference between representa tives of their unions and the Cincin nati branch of the National Associa tion. No Violence, Says Governor. HARRTSBURG, Pa., May 2. Gov ernor Penny-packer today issued a proclamation In reference to the indus trial disturbances in Pennsylvania, in which he calls upon all citizens to assist in the maintenance of the law, and declares that violence will not be tolerated. EARLING VERY RETICENT PLANS OF ST. PAUL TO REACH PORTLAND KEPT SECRET. Route Through Montana Chosen, but Location in Idaho Is Undecided. SEATTLEi Wash.. May 2. (Special.) President A. J. Barling, of the Chicago, Milwaukee A St. Paul, who arrived on the Coast this morning, will probably make a trip to. Portland before he returns East next week. Jf that trip has any especial significance, he will not say so. In fact, Mr. Earling; perfectly willing to discuss his extension Jtrom the Missouri River to Seattle, will not talk about anything south of Tacoma. . . "I cannot answer that question," he Bald, when rumors that he had trackage deals pending that would give him an entrance Into Portland were repeated to him. When pressed for other informa tion Mr. Earling insisted that he be not cross-examined. .. All this may Indicate much or little. When he .was here last Mr. Earling gave out a pretty plain Intimation that the Portland problem for his road would be solved readily enough when the time came. He has maintained a constant at titude of refusing to discuss anything or announce anything that affected future interests of the road while it might In jure -present conditions. He talks only of the present. H. R. Williams, president of the Wash ington corporation of the St. Paul road, today gave out the route from Seattle across Snoqualmle Pass, saying the com. pany Intended to use the Columbia & Puget Sound tracks to Maple Valley, go up the Cedar River to the city's electric power plant and then cross over to ihe south fork of the Snoqualmie. That stream" will be followed to the summit and over to a point near Yakima. Later in the day President Earling de clared his road had located most of Its line through Montana, but that the Idaho route Is In doubt.' Upon the Idaho line depends much the route to be followed through Eastern Washington. "We nave contracted for our materials and will send them West as soon as they are able to use them here," he said. "We will not operate our own trains over the Columbia & Puget Sound during early construction. It is cheaper, easier and more practicable to ship, as freight, over the Columbia & Puget Sound and the Northern than to use our own trains and crews. Beside, by using the Columbia & Puget Sound, we can take advantage of the Pacific Coast Company terminals here and do not have to wait to build our own docks and yards." Will See First Dirt Fly. TACOMA. Wash.', May 2. (Special.) President Earling, of the Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad, is expected in Tacoma within a day or so, where he will witness probably the first throwing of earth for his new road in . Pierce County. He reached 'Seattle this morning. He will in spect the work that is being done in Sno qualmle Pass and pass upon plans of his engineers for other work. The company has obtained practically all its right of way between Tacoma and Seattle. The last work In this direction has been between Tacoma and Sumner. Surveys have been completed within the last few days and the exact route has been selected between Tacoma and Seattle. Several carloads of graders' tools have reached Tacoma and President Williams says grading will begin at Sumner prob ably before ihe end of this week. Dirt will fly fast. A number of crews will be put at work and almost before Tacomans are aware of It the St. Paul's tracks will be stretching across tho tide flats to reach the terminals along Puyallup River. AT THE THEATERS What ti.Prm AgenU Sy. 'RUNAWAY GIRL" TONIGHT. Famous Pollard Isillipnttans Pleas Ins TIienter-Goers at the Hell if?. The Pollard Lilliputian Opera Company -will present the musical comedy success, "A Run away Girl," at the Hell Is: Theater tonight at 8:15 oVtock. These clever children have player Portland on wveral former occasions, but never to more appreciative audiences than have witnessed their artistic performances thla week. Tomorrow (Friday) eight ''The Belle of New York" will be given; Saturday night "An American Millionaire. and at the special ladies' and children' matinee Satur day afternoon "H. M. S. Pinafore" wtlL be presented. Seats are now seLling- at the box- oftire of the Heilig Theater, Fourteenth and Washington streets, for the entire engage ment. San Francisco Vaudeville. Moft liberal- patronage Is being tendered the San Francisco acts that have been, gathered together from the hundreds of refugees at the Baker this week. A strong and original bill la given by these clever people and one that pleases In every particular. The Lee Faroe Company Is a whole show In itself, and there are singing and dancing acts, acrobatic feats, and all the variety known to goodi vaudeville. This move on the part of the Portland man agers also has proved a means of taking care of these people by giving them something to do. The big vaudeville bill will run all the rest of the week at the Baker with a matinee Saturday. "The Silver Dagger" a Hit. "The Sliver Dagger" at the Empire this week is a positive hit. It is a melodrama pure and simple, and is as full of the real action, the weird and thrilling situations as Is possible to crowd into one play. It tells a strong story of crime and villainy pitted against truth and Innocence, and in the end, as It should be the scheming and unprin cipled villains get their just deserts. The scenery laid io and around the big American metropolis la moat realistic, and everything is carried complete by the Mack Swain com pany, which is so cleverly presenting the pleje. There will be a matinee Saturday. MISS XAWREXCE AS GLORY "The Christian" Finely Done at the lieilhr Sunday, May 6. "The Christian" production, home from Its long tour and opening for three nights Sun day, May 0, at the Heilig Theater, bids fair to have an ovation. They give a beautiful performance of this tremendous play. Here Is a sample of the warm pratee given to Miss Lawrence as Glory Quayle during the present triumphant trip: "SLrong and thrllJingly effective was the work of Mlsa Lillian Lawrence. It is an extremely difficult role. It could be so easily overdone. There were tense passages which another actress might have ruined with rav ings; there were fit ill graceful poises that might easily have been made 'stagey and ridiculous, but there were no such lapses. Miss Lawrence won her audiences at the start. Here is the work that wine." John Sain polls as John Storm is another great feature of the production. The sale of seats opens tomorrow (Friday) morning at the Heilig Theater boxoffice. THE BAKER STOCK. Opening Sunday, May 13 Scat Sale Opens Monday, May -7. Nothing of greater theatrical Interest has been sprung in Portland for many a day than the announcement that George L. Baker has gotten together most of the old Baker stock favorites in his permanent organization, which will open at the Baker Theater Sunday after noon. May 13, in "Prince Karl." Remember, the time to engage your season reservations is Monday morning. May T, at the Baker The ater boxoffice. Seaman and Pearl will be on hand to attend to your desires. Come early and get your same old seats that you had when the original Baker Company played here. Lota of the old faces will be sen again, and nothing but the highest class plays will be given. COMING ATTRACTIONS. The Inside Track." Next week at the Empire the attraction will be Oliver 2oud Byron's melodrama, "The Inside Track." It has been several seasons since this Lla.y has visited Portland, but It is well remembered by many. It tells an in tense and thrilling but entirely consistent storj. Vinnie Foster, the pretty daughter of an old miller, is the victim of a scheming scoundrel, who endeavors to fafcten the stigma of a crime upon her lover In order to ruin him and obtain possession of her. The dra matic action of the play is liberally supplied with a lively vein of comedy and it contains throughout the elements that go to make It one of the successful melodramas. Last Week of Burlesque. Starting next Sunday matinee "The Cali fornia Girls" Company will open the closing week of the big burlesque season at the Baker. There are shows and shows and then again some more shows, but of al? the shows in the burlesque it is claimed that the latest innovation, "The California Girls.'" takes the lead and seems determined to keep it. Some idea of the superiority of this organiza tion will be understood by the show-wise when the announcement is made that the following names appear nightly on the programme: The four thoroughbreds, Ross & Vack, Helston 6c. Hood, Sisters De Forest and Helen Rut Bell and Lillian Ardell. ILEEIG CCIHAIiYS Lxrrarx cx iieei. S JHW ?CO MS W? 3 quickly" 8 X- For it5kioai Bouillons.

To fix upon the memories of future generations the date of the adoption of the first provisional Oregon government at Champoeg, May 3. 1S. the next ses sion of the Legislature will be asked to make that day a perpetual legal holiday throughout the state. A resolution for this purpose was introduced by George H. Htmes at the celebration of the 63d anniversary of the famous convention, and was unanimously carried. There's another thing tho thousand odd people who attended the celebration at Champoeg yesterday want that la the adoption of "The Beaver State" as the colloquial name of Oregon. Yesterday was a day that made glad the hearts of the old pioneers who gath ered at the historic spot for the time honored celebration, and the native sons and daughters who attended by the hun dred "were given plenty of reason to be proud of their state. Nearly 1600 per sons, representing Benton, Polk, Yamhill, Washington. Multnomah. Clackamas and Marlon Counties were present, A number of visitors from other statea attended the exercises, which were held under the auspices of the F. X. Matthieu Cabin, Native Sons of Oregon, of Butte vllle, and were deeply impressed with the patriotic spirit manifested. Much credit Is due the members of the cabin for the success of the celebration, particularly to E. A. M. Cone and W. R. Scheurer, the committee on arrangements. Ex-Governor T. T. Gecr was president of the day. Charles V. Galloway deliv ered the principal address. Following him were five-minute speeches by W. C. Hawley, Dr. James Withycombe, P. A. D'Arcy, John Minto and Miss Laura Clay, interspersed with vocal and Instrumental music. Following Is the resolution Introduced by Mr. Hlmes: Whereas. In order that the event which we celebrate here today, the 63d anniversary of the birth of civil government in American territory on the Pacific Coast, may become more deeply impressed upon the minds of the people of Oregon; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the representatives of seven of the counties in the Willamette Val ley, do hereby urgently request our repre sentatives in the next Legislature to take the necessary steps to set apart the 2d day of May of each and every year as a legal holiday, on the ground that the notable and epoch-making event of 63 years ago, making it easily the most Important day In the history of Oregon, Justfles the request. Business Gradually Revives. SAN FRANCISCO, May 2.

The firms in business re port a light trade in all lines, but an ticipate an Increase within a few days, considering that the Army has the dealing- out of supplies. TERRIBLE ITCHING SCALP HUMOR Badly Affected With Sores and Crusts Extended Down Behind the Ears Some Years Later Painful and Itching Pustules Broke Out on Lower Part of Body Son Also Affected. A TRIPLE CURE BY CUTICURA REMEDIES "About ten years ago my scalp be came badly affected with sore and itching humors, crusts, etc., and extend ing down behind the ears.
