THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER, 6, 1906. 3 PERRY TALKED WITH SNYDER Admits He Was in Hillsboro Night of Forest Grove Bank Robbery. CONVERSATION OVER PHONE "Maybe "erer," Was Reply of Sny der. "When Asked by Perry When He Was Coming t to Hillsboro. KANSAS CITT. Mo, Oct. 6 (EpecIaJ). Georga Perry, whose name has been men tioned in recent dispatches from Port land as having had a telephone conver sation with Carey Snyder, the eight of the Forest-Grove bank robbery, is at his home in Independence. Mo. He does not deny tie story that he talked to Snyder ever the telephone from Hillsboro the night of December 3, 155. But he ex plains the circumstances in this man ner: "I went to Portland in 1905 to visit the fair, and while there wrote to Snyder. He replied begging me to come down to the ranch and spend a week with him. I went and spent the week with him and then returned to Portland. Then he wrote to me again, asking me to come. I answered, telling him that I was going hack to Kansas City and would stop off end see him and for him to meet me. "When, I got to Hillsboro, Carey was not there and I decided to stay all night. Then I called Carey over the telephone end asked him why he did not meet me. He was 'sore' for some reason or other. I supposed he had had some trouble with his wife. I asked him when he was com ing to town and he said he did not know, maybe never. ' That made me 'sore' and I said 'All right, this Is good bye for me." He said, 'all right,' and rang oft and I went back to Portland. So far as my having any thing to do with the murder of Carey Snyder, that, is all a put up job on the part of the Pinkertons to implicate me In the bank robbery at Forest Grove. I was In Hillsboro the night it was pulled off but I know nothing about it. The first knowledge I had of it was through the newspapers. "Carey is largely responsible for my name being connected with this affair. It was his idea of a hero, because he and I were coniined together at the county Jail here. He was crazy over dime novels and whenever he talked of pulling off some big hold-up or train robbery he in variably connected my name with it." BOMB FOR PENNYPACKER Practical Joker Sends Bogus In fernal Machine to Governor. HARRISBURG. Pa.. Oct. 5. A suspicious-looking package containing what appeared to be an infernal machine was found in Governor Pennypacker's mall at the executive mansion today. It was about three Inches square and resembled In shape a baking powder box. News paper clippings were tied around the box with small pieces of yellow ribbons. The peculiar appearance of the package ex cited the suspicion of Executive Clerk Lynch, who placed It In a bucket of water and let It soak for several hours. X'pon being opened it was found to con tain a small case resembling a car tridge shell surrounded by black powder, and was intended to be exploded by the removal of the lid. The package was addressed to the Gov ernor. On the outside there was a red band, on the outside of which was pasted the name. "The Ridgeway Company. 31 East Sev enth street. New Tork," and this news paper extract: . "Help, help, help." On the Inside were other words care fully clipped from newspapers and closely pasted to the tin as follows: "Capitol dedication;" "Keep to the right;" "Penrose;" "Pennsy;" "Why is it;" "Anarchist." The remainder formed a jumble 'from which no sense could be extracted. None of the attaches would -discuss the subject, but it was generally regarded as a practical joke. The construction of the "machine" was not such as to render it. very dangerous even though it had been exploded. There is no clew to the sender. TROUBLE JS RESUMED Agitation Again Breaks Out at St. Petersburg. ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 5 Agitation by the workmen of St. Petersburg, who for some time have been tranquil, has begun again. There were several largely attended demonstrations in various quar ters of the city tonight and last night, on account of the tri3l of the 51 members of the Council of Workmen's delegates, a revolutionary organization which operated during the troublous times of last October and November. These men have been in prison 10 months. They are accused of high treason, the specifications being the preparation of armed uprisings to over throw the government. Troops occupied the courthouse, and the street outside was patrolled by Cossacks. From the answers of the accused it was i seen that a remarkably small proportion of them actually were workmen. Of three successive presidents of the coun cil. Krustaleft said he was a lawyer; ;Eernstein declared himself a writer, and the third president, Knudiansk frankly (admitted himself a professional revolu tionist. Other members of the council are physicians, engineers, teachers, and i students, the last clas3 including three l-women. The trial will be protracted, as j there are more than 400 witnesses to be heard. The council planned to overthow the government by arming workmen and en deavoring to precipitate a financial crash hy means of a December manifesto. IT IS DIFFICULT COURSE Octoberist League Fights for Popu lar Support. MOSCOW, Oct. 5. The National com mittee of the Octoberlst League, which is in session here to draft a programme for submission to the coming convention, is attempting to steer a narrow and dif ficult course between approval of Pre mier Stolypin's policy and the Liberalism necessary to win popular support. The document.denies that the league is committed to the support of the Cabinet, but states that as a legal, constitutional psrty. it cannot approve indiscriminate assaults by the radical parties upon serv ants of the government which, at the present time, when there is no hope of the replacement of the Cabinet by one less bureaucratic and more liberal, mere ly strikes a blow at all authority and weakens any future ministry. Therefore the league adopts a policy of benevolent noninterference, in order to' give the Ad ministration a chance to put its promised reforms into effect. The resolution of the committee in re gard to drumhead court-martial, while it recognizes the necessity for strenuous ju dicial procedure in fighting anarchists, disapproves of the establishment of -summary courts, but declines to aid the ex treme parties by using this as a cam paign cry. The original draft of the programme contains a personal attack on Dmitri Shipoff, the veteran Liberal, and an out spoken attack on the Constitutional Dem ocrats. There is, however, a strong senti ment in favor of moderating such references. REBELS CAPTURE $125,000 Hold Up Mail Train, Defeat Guards and Carry Off Treasure. UFA. Russia, Oct 5.

After killing a soldier and wounding three others who were in charge of the mail the robbers de camped with $125,000. DROPS SMALL FORTUNE VALEXTIXE FORCED TO UNXOAD WHEAT, CAUSING SLUMP. Big Chicago Operator Sells $2,000, 000 Bushels, but Eastern Buy. ers Cause Recovery. : CHICAGO. Oct. S (Special) "Valentine has been shaken out of his line of wheat." This was the cry raised on the Beard of Trade today, when amid a scene of fren zied activity large quantities of the cereal were thrown into the pit from all sides, causing prices to slump. More than 3.000. 000 bushels were thrown on the market shortly after the opening and brokers hastily figured out that, if this was the same wheat bought by A. I. Valentine a few days ago, it showed the loss of a small fortune. It was ascertained later in the day that Valentine had personally sold out nearly 2,000.000 bushels of May wheat. Many did not hesitate to declare that the big speculator's plunge on the bull side of the market had cost him at least $50,000. Others, however, were of th opinion that the wheat bought by Valen tine last Tuesday was not for his personal account and that he had lost no such sum of money. The market ran into good supporting orders on the break and this revived the talk that C. M. Schwab and others in the East holding 25,000.000 bushels, are backing a big deal in the hope of being able to boost the price. Old-time brokers declared the market was the most puzzling that they have ever had to deal with. Opening at 75Hc, a shade better than the close yesterday, December sold up to 75 l-4c to 75 3-Sc, then slumped to 74 5-Sc. $84.50 BUFFALO ' AND RETURN $84.50.

The Weather Bureau issued a bulletin announcing that its seismographs recorded "another ereat earthquake" beginning at 9:05 P. M. Oct. 1. but that the earthquake probably was not disastrous. The official bulletin says: "The distinctive features of the record consist in the long duration of the earth quake and especially the long duration of the relatively strong motion. The ampli tude of the strong motion, as recorded at Washington, was only about 0.3 of a milli meter, which Is very much less than in the case of either the San Francisco or the Valparaiso earthquakes. The record indicates, however, that the disturbance was at a great distance from Washington: in fact, almost at the Antipodes, or within an indefinite region in the Indian Ocean westerly from Australia. "There is every evidence from the records that this 13 another great earthquake. It would seem unlikely that it was especially disastrous, in view of its probable loca tion In the bed of the Indian Ocean. It might, however, have been accompanied by strong tidal waves. "Advices have just been received from the London Daily Mail that a great earth quake has been recorded on the seismo graphs at. Perth and Sydney, Australia, which are not far distant from the esti mated origin as deduced from the Wash ington observations." Ume Back.
