THE MORNING OREGOJTIAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1906. POLITICS IN NEW YORK CAR RIOTS Democratic Leaders Behind Crusade Against Tran sit Company. REJOICE OVER THE RESULTS Common People Kicked and Beaten Jn the Interest of Various Polit ical Booms Judge Gay. nor's Queer Decision. ' NEW YORK. Aug. 20. (Special.) week of rioting has followed the efforts of certain politicians to gain the good will of the "common people" by Inducing them to believe that the fare to Coney Island is only 5 cents. The politicians are happy, but It has been mighty tough on the Brooklyn Rap id Transit Company and the grateful 'common peopie." The corporations have lost large sums of money, while the ple beian Individuals have been kicked and beaten until they are beginning to get tired of it. Hostilities have suspended by the company's agreeing to give a rebate re ceipt to every person paying a 10-cent fare. 5 cents to be returned to the holder if the Court of Appeals upholds the de cision of Justice Gaynor that 5 cents Is the legal fare to Coney Island. If the court should decide that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company Is acting within Its rights in charging double fare, how ever, the 'receipt is to be null and void. Court of Appeals' Ruling. The Court of Appeals, the highest legal ' tribunal in the state, decided some time ago that the swert-car company' could charge 10 cents If It desired, because the Coney Island trolley lines were created by the amalgamation of various former steam roads, which were permitted under the law to charge 3 cents a mile. And it is betVeen eight and ten miles from the Brooklyn bridge to Coney Island. There was no trouble until the other day, when a man was arrested for re fusing to pay his second nickel on a trolley car. He got out a writ of habeas corpus and when brought before Supreme Court Justice Qaynor, was discharged, the luBtice announcing at the time that the company had no right to arrest anybody, and besides was not entitled to more than one nickel anyway. This was the signal for great munici pal excitement, and the "common peo ple" were editorially urged to go to Coney Island in droves and not to pay more than S cents for the round trip. Those who tried were enthusiastically kicked off at various points along the - line, and the damage suit market is look ing up. With Mayor McClellan and Po lice Commissioner Bingham out of town, the city officials! have been much at tea and have been bitterly scored by every body concerned. Nobody doubts that Judge Gaynor was honest in his decision which overruled the Court of Appeals, but it certainly has given impetus to his boom for the Demo cratic Gubernatorial nomination and has aroused the jealousy of aspiring poli ticians. Bird Coler to the Front. Bird S. Coler, President of the Borough of Brooklyn, who was defeated for Gov ernor by 8tW0 votes In 1902, when Benjamin B. Odell, Jr., was re-elected, Is known to have aspirations. Mr. Coler wa elect ed to his present office as a Hearst man, but Is no longer a follower of the news paper publisher. He describes himself as the "Independentest kind of Independent Democrat," and privately believes he could unite all factions of the party were he made the etandard-bearer. Since the present trouble commenced, Mr. Coler has spent most of his time at the "bouncing stations." He has been thrown off several cars himself "for principle's sake," although he was al ways careful to announce before hand who he was, and thereby escaped rough treatment. He has also condoled with varloue victims, told them It was a shame and advised them to "be firm and con tinue to demand your rlghtst" In one case Mr. Coler was heard to give this cheering advice to a gentleman who was so weak that he had to be carried to the waiting ambulance. As borough president Mr. Cole has an army of city employes at his command, men In the highways, sewers and public buildings departments, most of them have been massed at the scenes of dis order, and whenever they get a chance they arrest somebody, preferably a mo torman who stops his car while the bouncers are busy. The charge In such a case Is "blocking traffic." Sherlfr Flaherty's Game. The Interests of William Randolph Hearst, outside of the publicity depart ment, are carefully guarded by Michael J. Flaherty, Sheriff of the County of Kings. Mr. Flaherty was walking dele gate for the Musicians' Union before no became a power in politics, and is sup posedly admirably fitted for the high po sition he holds. Sheriff Flaherty, like Mr. Coler. spends all his time on the battlefield and speaks words of hope to the wounded victims. He declares that nobody should be com pelled to pay more than a nickel for a ten-mile ride and loudly laments the fact that he has only a handful of deputies and Is unable to preserve order. Mr. Flaherty has already, called upon Governor Hlggins to send as many mili tiamen as he can spare to Brooklyn, so that the former walking delegate of the Musicians' Union can take command, but the Governor has ignored Flaherty's frantic cries, and has been editorially de nounced In consequence. The police have been out in force, but the orders they have received have been so contradictory that they hardly know what to do. , One day they are instructed not to per mit any violence on the part of rapid transit employes, and to arrest every man who they see commit an assault. The next day they are Instructed to keep quiet, while an hour later some other kind of an order Is Issued. McGowan Loses Temper. Acting Mayor McGowan has lost his temper and publicly declares that Coles and Flaherty are "posing and Inciting riots." Acting Police Commissioner Rhlnelander Waldo is plainly very badly rattled, the Brooklyn rapid transit rulers are plainly very determined, while the "common people" are plainly very In dignant: also much hurt, mentally and physically. . Mayor McClellan and his administration are scored because the police do not take the side of the people, while Governor Hlggins Is criticised because the militia have not received their marching orders In consequence the Independence League leaders believe that the third party vote in Brooklyn and New York will be vastly Increased, all because of the fact that a Supreme Court Justice has overruled the dignified, learned and august Court of Appeals. PEACE MAY REIGN IN ZION Vollva Offers Prayers for Dowie for First Time Since Trouble Began. CHICAGO, Aug. 20. Further evidence of peace negotiations between John Alex ander Dowie and Wilbur Glenn Voliva and his followers came out at two meet ings held in Zlon City yesterday. It was Dowie's day at the tabernacle, -but the First Apostle failed to appear, although it was announced from hour to hour that he would soon be there. Deacon A. Er rington represented Dowie and declared that the deposed leader would give to the publfc in a few days a statement of his side of the controversy. For the first time since the differences arose between Dowie and Vollva, the gen eral overseer prayed for Dowie and asked the people to do the same. They were asked to pray that Dowie be guided aright in any step he was about to take. According to the Inter Ocean, an agree ment was reached yesterday which Dowie will, for the remainder of his life retain the title of "First Apostle" of the Chris tian Catholic Church, while the temporal affairs of the community will be In the hands of Vollva and his supporters. It was finally agreed that Dowie should drop all attempts to dispute the ruling of the Federal Court in the contest case between himself and Voliva for the pos session of the assets of Zion..

PORTS ARE OPEN AS TJSCAIf Valparalso Only Damaged Port Du ties May Be Reduced. NEW YORK, Aug. 20. The Consul General of Chile at New York today gave out the following statement: "Now that the proportions of the ca tastrophe at Valparaiso are known, it Is necessary to Inform the merchants In this country that all the consulates of Chile in the United States and posses sions will continue, as customary, to revise shipments destined for Valparai-, so, giving the shippers authority to land their merchandise at their own option In Valparaiso or in any other port of Chile. "It is timely to mention that outside of Valparaiso the other ports of the Re public have not suffered by the earth quake and will continue as usual dis patching cargoes. "We can assume that on account of this disaster the Importation of foreign goods will surely become mors active and probably the custom house duties on certain goods will be lowered." Astronomers Foretold Quake. LONDON, Aug. 2D. In a dispatch from Santiago the correspondent of the Daily Mail says: "It Is a curious fact that the earth quake of August IS was foretold by astronomers, who based their predic tions on the conjunction of Jupiter, the earth and the moon."

In order to more effectively check the un lawful Importation of firearms and explo sives Into the Russian ports In the Bal tic, has decided to extend to the flotilla of revenue cutters charged with the sur veillance and prevention of smuggling the aeistance of the warship of the imperial navy. The Ambassador adds that there Is nothing unusual In this co-operation and that the Instructions Issued' to the offi cers of the war vessels are In every case consistent with the provisions of the Russian custonus law and the general rules of International maritime law. GITY HEAP OF MIS Valparaiso Editor Describes Effect of Shock. SANTIAGO TO THE RESCUE Troops Drive Cattle to Ruined City to Feed Homeless Many Towns Destroyed With Great ' Loss of Life. ' ' SANTIAGO, Chile, Aug.: 20. The situa tion la becoming clearer. A relief com mittee was organized here today, and the street railroad service was resumed. - It was feared that Santiago would be plunged In darkness owing to lack of coal to supply the gas works, but the of ficials of the gas company say they have a sufficient supply to last a week. Carlos Edwards, one of the proprietors eyes and the formation about the eyes of the Mercurlo, of .Valparaiso, has ar rived here on horseback from that city. He confirms the reports that the Almen dral quarter and the principal avenue of Valparaiso have been transformed into heaps of ruins. When he left the city the Inhabitants were , wandering about looking for relatives and friends. The majority of the Inhabitants, he says, have sought refuge on the hills, In the parks and along the seashore. The Adminis tration building and the Victoria Theater had disappeared even to their founda tions. The Marine Arsenal was only slightly damaged, but not any of the pri vate residences were habitable. Cannot let Count Dead. In aplte of the desolation, perfect order was maintained by the troops, which were bivouacked an the Grand avenue and Victoria Square. The military ambu lances were gathering up the wounded and the dead. When Mr. Edwards left Valparaiso it was impossible to deter mine the number of persons killed, but according to his estimate, the number of lives lost was small when the extent of the catastrophe was taken into considera tion. At one depot he saw 60 bodies. The main hotel was standing, and all the guests escaped Injury, but Mr. Edwards regards Valparaiso as being uninhabitable for the present. " The squadron of cavalry forming the Presidential escort was started from here for Valparaiso with Instructions to requi sition al! the cattle met with between this place and Valparaiso, and to drive the herds to the latter city In order to prevent a famine. A large number of people have sought refuge on the various ships at anchor in the Bay of Valparaiso. The report that the naval school at Valparaiso has es caped the disaster is confirmed. A num ber of families have sought refuge in the school building, where they are being cared for by the naval authorities. Medical supplies have been sent from thla city to Valparaiso, and everything possible is being done to assist the home less people. JLoss Is Hundreds of Millions. No accurate estimate of the damage done by the earthquake can yet be made, but it is considered certain that it will run into the hundreds of millions of dol lars, and it Is feared that a commercial crisis will follow the earthquake disaster. It is believed that steps will be Immedi ately taken to relieve the situation. Busi ness Is being slowly resumed here and at Valparaiso. The Ministers of War and Interior, with detachments of volunteers from the army and Are departments, left here this morning for the purpose of re-establishing telegraphic communication with Val paraiso. A train which left Santiago for the north today arrived without any dif ficulty at Calera. Contrary to the gen eral belief the tunnels were not wrecked, and It is hoped that the trains will be running regularly tomorrow. The government has advised the Prov incial Governora to spend all money nec essary to help the earthquake sufferers In their districts. When the earthquake first shook this city, the prisoners in the penitentiary began singing hymns. . There was no loss of life among them so far as known, but at Valparaiso, the prison walls fell and crushed 140 prisoners to death. Vina del Mar All Ruins. A telephone message received here to day from Vina del Mar announced that the portion of that town between the Royal Hotel and the Custora-House is not seriously damaged, but that "the re.t of Vina dej Mar Is almost totally de stroyed. President Rlesco has received dispatches from Lazarena. capital of the Province of Coquimbo, saying that no damage has been done In the north, but that the majority of the houses In the Ambaga district have collapsed, as did a hill between Valparaiso and Vina del Mar, destroying railroad communication be tween those two places. Despite the fact that the stores of pro visions here are intact, a number of mer chants have considerably increased the price of provisions. Many Other Towns Wrecked. A great deal of damage has been done at the mines In the Noglals and Calona districts. A number of houses have fallen at Talca, 60 persons were killed there and 160 were wounded at Mellpilla. It Is be lieved that all the houses will have to be pulled down, owing to the severe shaking which they received from the earthquake, and at Salvador and Santa Turnlno a number of public buildings will have to be razed. At Llaillal, 70 houses fell. A number of small villages in the Terre mote district were destroyed. At Terre mote the populace tried to pillage busi ness houses of Rose-Innls, which had re mained standing, but the employes of the firm successfully defended the place. It was stated at the observatory today that It Is not likely there will be any repetition of the seismic disturbances In the near future This has gone a great way towards calming the public mind. Indicating the same firmness, de form the most striking similarity of the It was at the request of Mme. Pedro Montt, wife of the ' President-elect, that the municipality of Iquique has decided to vote the sum of money ltch had been. BuuBcnuea lur ine ceieorauon or the elec tion of Senor Montt to the relief of the earthquake sufferers. The banks at Valparaiso are safe and the damage to the commercial center is not serious, but the populous quarter has been completely wrecked. Quake Has Raised Coast. Refugees from Valparaiso declare that the seacoast has been lifted at several places noticeably above its previous level. A relief committee has been organ ized here. It will receive subscrip tions in all the banks and at other public places, and agen.ts will be sent through the city to solicit money, food and clothing to be sent to Valparaiso and other places where assistance Is needed. v The people of Lemache have re quested the government troops to put a stop to pillage. Preparations are being made to de stroy buildings left in a dangerous condition by the earthquake and ef forts are being made to perfect organ ization to prevent famine. DYNAMITE CHECKED FLAMES Eruption of Wonin Ominous and Damage Throughout Andes. RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 20.-The free use of dynamite, according to dispatches received here, was very effective against the progress of the fire at Valparaiso. The firemen were thoroughly exhausted when the flames were finally subdued. Hundreds of people took refuge on the ships In the harbor. It is stated that a new danger Is threatened by the volcano "VVonin, which has become very active. There are indications from the reports received that the arthquake caused great damage throughout the .Andes re gion. It Is probable that there was con siderable loss of Ufa and destruction of property at remote points, which have not been heard from. All of Chile was ap parently affected by the shocks as well as numerous points in Argentina in the vi cinity of the Andes. Saved by Earthquake Clause. HARTFORD, Conn.,. Aug. 20. Fire in surance companies with offices in this state are not losers by the earthquakes in Chile, as none has written risks there. Officials of Connecticut companies say that most of the British companies carry ing risks in South America have clauses In their policies relating directly to loss by earthquake, total exemption being the rule. Methodist Missions Felt Shock. NEW YORK, Aug. 20. The General Board of the Methodist Missionary So ciety report that they have a large mis sion in Santiago and smaller missions in Valparaiso, Iquique and Concepcion, but feel confident that no serious damage has resulted to these missions.

IS Secret Service Police Making Arrests Indiscriminately. LIBERALS ARE FAIR PREY American Capitalists Who Were Balked in Isle of Pines Are Al leged to Be Behind Pres ent Movement in Cuba. HAVANA, Aug. 20. (Special.) Although presenting the attitude they assumed last week In publicly belittling the outbreaks against the Palma administration, high officials of the government In private con versation admit that conditions are seri ous. This is chiefly due to the fact that Just who are mixed up in the plot to de pose President Palma is not exactly known, and secret service police seem to be mystified. They are going about the problem of arresting suspects in general, and all persons who have been conspic uous In the Liberal ranks are fair prey for1 the officers. Armed demonstrations in Havana Prov ince have so far only indicated that tne rural guards, on whose Integrity the ad ministration has staked very much, are honeycombed with rebellion: in fact it is openly stated that of the 150 revolution aries now operating in this province, 40 of them are deserters from the rural guards. In Pinar del Rio Province, the revolu tionists are decidedly strong. It is now estimated that fully 700 have taken the field there, but so far they have content ed themselves with looting arms and am munition from loyalists, and but one clash between them and the loyal troops has taken place. In tnat It was a case of one side being afraid and the other badly scared. Volleys were exchanged at long range, - but so far as Is known, no damage resulted. A force of 600 picked men under com mand of General Rafael Montalbo, Secre tary of Public Works, whose war record Is of the best, left here on a special train tonight for Pinar del Rio, whore they are to take the field against the rebels. There is a disposition in official circles to blame Americans for the present trou ble. In fact, it is openly asserted that when the Liberal leader. General Gar cia, was in the United States, some months ago, he was promised financial aid by the capitalists who are back of the Isle of Pines settlement. These men are decidedly wroth over the action of President Palma In insisting that the Isle is Cuban territory, and. It is openly as serted, would go to any length to over throw the present government. Liberals, it is asserted, would permit the Isle of Pines to become American ter ritory, if for no other reason than that capitalists interested there have signified a desire to contribute liberally to their cause. LIBERAL LEADERS ARRESTED Castillo and tiomcz Charged With Inciting Revolution. SANTIAGO DEJ CUBA. Aug. 20. Gen eral Demetrlo Castillo, who was Gov ernor of the province of Santiago, and J. G. Gomez, one of the editors of La Lucha, of Havana, were arrested quiet ly by rural guards at El Caney last night, charged with Inciting a revolu tion. Both men disclaim treasonable In tentions. INTERFERENCE OF AMERICA Cnba May Call for Help if Insnr gents Get Too Strong. HAVANA7 Aug. 20. Conservative esti mates place the number of the insurrec tionists at from 1000 to 1200. There is con siderable discussion as to whether, in the event of Cuba being unable to suppress the insurrection, she should ask the United States for assistance, or whether the United States may not intervene un der the terms of the Piatt amendment without such a request being preferred. In the meantime the government alleges it Is entirely able to cope with the situa tion, although the condition of unrest may continue for several weeks. President Palma has appointed General Rafael Montalvo, Secretary of Publio Works, to be in charge of all military operations 'against the Insurgents. Pres ident Palma has also decreed the increase of the rural guard to 4000. The first death resulting from the in surrection occurred this afternoon. While Governor . Nunez was automoblllng he overtook a detachment of 20 rural guards who were following the trail of the In surrectionary leader Bandoras. Governor Nunez Joined the party and with it went some distance off the main road, when suddenly one of Bandoras' men waa en countered.

'Many men who served as officers in the Cuban revolutions against Spain have volunteered their services to President Palma. A special train tonight took 100 rural guards from Santa Clara and B0 artillery men from Havana to Pinar del Rio. Not even the railroad officials have been in formed of the destination of these troops. It is evident that the Pinar del Rio insurgents are concentrating In the vicinity of the clt- of Pinar del Rio, intent on making it their head quarters. Both the government and the West ern Telegraph wires were cut today between Consolaclon del Sur and pinar del Rio for several hours. Finally a guarded train took workmen from Pinar del Rio and repaired the lines. The workmen were not molested. To night the telephone wires in that re gion were cut.
