VOL. XLYI.-XO. 14,312. PORTLAND, OREGON, MONDAY, ! OCTOBER 22, 1906. PRICE FIVE CENTS. HEARST AT OUTS WITH BIG LEADERS Democrats Keep Away From Gotham. CONNERS BIDS FOR ORATORS Enemies Made by the Yellow Press Spurn Overtures. FLATFORM IS A PUZZLE New York State Chairman Declares Candidate's Personal Pronuacia mento Includes All the Wide ly Divergent Planks. NEW YORK. Oct. SI. (Precis!.) Stats Chairman William J. Conners. after eirnest but unavailing efforts to Indues leading Democrat from other sections of tha country to come Into New York, has given up the attempt In despair. "Hearst may absorb an the local Issues, but I am going to put some National Finger Into this fight or know the reason why." he declared. Now he knows the reason why. for everyone of his Invita tions hag been courteously spurned. John Sharp Williams. Congressman from Mississippi and the rvemocratio leader in the House, positively declined to consider It Hearst has roasted him for several years and ths two do not speak. Called Bailey Standard Oil Lacker Senator Joseph Ballsy, of Texas, the biggest Democrat in the Upper House. Is another man who doesn't like Hearst. The latter has called hlrn a Standard Oil lackey, and assailed him strenuously In his newspapers. Mayor Edward F. Dunne, of Chicago, who was warmly supported by Hearst a year ago. is now on ths outs with htm. That Is because the Independence League Is running an Independent ticket In Chi cago. William Jennings Bryan, soon after ths nomination, offered to come Into the state n1 ma.ke a few speeches "If National Is sues were involved." But the Gllsey House crowd have made It. clear that they do not want him. "We can win without his aid" Is the way they put It. "His coming here would not bring Hearst a vote, and he'd claim all the credit in case of victory." Governor Folk, of Missouri, is too busy to speak. Besides he don't like Hearst. Tom Taggart. chairman of the National committee, cannot think of words hard enough to say about the Democratic can didate for Governor. They got Into a snarl over Taggart' s gambling-house at French Lick Springs, whloh was "ex posed" a few days after Taggart declared for Bryan. Gompsrs Working Against Hearst. Samuel Gompers, head of the American Federation of Labor. s quietly working against Hearst. Gompers tried to beat Congressman Llttlefleld. of Maine. In Sep tember. Llttlefleld's opponent. MoGllll cuddy, was a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 1904 and voted for Alton B. Parker. Hearst is accused of sending men and emissaries to Maine to help Llttlefleld in his fight. George Fred Williams, the most pic turesque New England Democrat of re cent years. Is sulking Hearst's man. John B. Moran. won the Democratic nomina tion for Governor of Massachusetts, and Williams has practically been kicked out of the organization. You could not hire him to speak here. Some of the National committeemen who have pronounced grouches on. so far as the head of the New York State ticket Is concerned, are Norman E. Mack. New York; Roger Sullivan. Illinois; William A. Gaston. Massachusetts; W. B. Gourley, New Jersey, and J. M. Guffey, of Penn sylvania. Mack's friends in Buffalo are in open revolt because of the Independ ence League county ticket there, and It Is expected that Mack will vote for Hughes, although he means to keep quiet about It to retain his regularity. Sullivan I'ses Awful Language. Roger Sullivan is fighting Hearst and Bryan simultaneously, and the words he used to describe the "idol of the people." In conversation with Chairman Conners the other day, would make an ordinary man shudder. Gaston has been given the "merry ki bosh" In Massachusetts, and does not like it. Gourley. of Paterson. N. J., has been roasted because he supported Parker two years ago. Guffey has been called everything ex cept a horsethief. and any Pennsylvania Democrat who talked for Hearst would feel the weight of his wTath. The only outsiders who will consent to come into the state compose the little knot of Rep resentatives known at Washington as "Hearst Congressmen." And they are few in numbers. After he had carefully looked over the field. Mr. Conners authorized the follow ing statement: "We will fight this campaign on state issues." "But what are ths state Issues?" he was asked. Chairman's Speech Halts. "Why. the end of corporation rule, and pure elections, and " Then the state chairman halted. He thought deeply a moment and said: "Have you read Hearst's speeches?" "Yes." "Well, them's state issues." and he smiled triumphantly. "How about the Democratic platform?" was the next query. "Is that a state Issue?" 1 "Sure." was the reply. "Every word of it." "Eut Mr. Hearst is standing on his own personal platform." "Of course, of course." said Connors hurriedly. "But our platform is in his platform. See?" And the state chair man, with this far from lucid explanation of the situation, hurried away. Watson Essays an Explanation. Billy Watson. sergeant-aUarms of the state committee, who fills the same posi tion with the Democratic minority in the House at Washington during the sessions of Congress, then tried to explain the situation. "Everj body knows where Hearst stands. " he volunteered "He is a Demo cratthe best kind of a Democrat but he has issues of his own Do you under stand? Now he is standing on his own platform, and he has a perfect right to do so, but he Indorses every word in the Democratic platform every word. "You see. any Democrat can indorse everything that Mr. Hearst indorses, and. of course, he can indorse every thing that any Democrat indorses. That's why he is on both tickets." Then Mr. Watson mopped his brow nervously. 1 Platforms Are at Variance. "But the two platforms do not agree." the interviewer pointed out. "And Mr. Hearst he declared in favor of expan sion, a larger' Navy, protection and a number of other things which the Dem ocratic National Convention declared against." "Ah." retorted Mr. Watson, trium phantly, "but -you see we are running this fight on state issues. Those sub jects really do not matter in an election for Governor." "But the Independence League plat form differs radically from the Demo cratic state platform adepted at Buf falo." "Of course It does." replied Mr. Wat son, "but you see Mr. Hearst Is running on his own personal platform, and of course that includes both of the others " And that is about ns much as any of Mr. Hearst's supporters will say upon the subject. Meanwhile outside Demo crats are conspicuous by their absence. Act-tally, they seem to shun K'.r York, although the city is a very, attractive place at this season of the year.

Secretary Shaw arrived in Washington today for a conference with the President, the na ture of which is not known. He will leave for New York tonight and tomor row he will deliver a political address at New Rochelle, N. Y. When the Secretary laft the White House tonight he said he had discussed a great many subjects with the Presi dent, but . declined to make any state ment or indicate the nature of the mat ters taken up. As the President is put ting his message to Congress in final shape and expects to complete It before going to Panama it is regarded as prob able that he desired to discuss with the Secretary at this time financial matters in connection with the message. Mr. Shaw laft on the midnight train for New York mm MOTHER III INSANE ANTICS Washington County Woman Is Suffering From Intense Re ligious Hysteria. ROLLS STRIPPED ON FLOOR Daughter Seems to Be Affected in Hypnotic Fashion After Visit to "Healer" Holding Forth In Portland. HILLSEORO. Or . Oct 21. (Special ) A strange case of temporary dementia, su perinduced by religious hysteria. Is re ported at Farmington. seven miles south east of this cityt where a mother and daughter are giving the neighborhood considerable alarm over their actions. The two cases are at the home of Charles Morrlng, a farmer, and last evening the patients became so violent that Dr. J. P. Tamlesle, a Hillsboro physician, was called to administer to them. The doctor found the elderly woman, Mrs. Anna Mack, hopelessly demented, and the wife of Mr. Morring. who Is Mrs. Mack's daughter, in a hypnotic or cata leptic state, following the actions and suggestions of the mother The physician found the elderly woman beyond all powers of reasoning, and unless there Is improvement she will be brought Into court for a test of her sanity. Attend Healing Meeting. The story leading up to- the deplorable condition was given by the husband and son-in-law. Mrs. Mack has been very deaf for some years and the daughter and wife has been suffering from a bone dis ease in one of her limbs. This Fall Mrs. Mack, who has always been of rather a religious turn of mind, went to some of the "healing meetings" held in a tent on the East Side. Portland, and upon her return she induced her daughter to go with her to a ha!! on Sixth and Main streets. Portland, where these healing meetings are conducted by a man named Sawtelle for treatment along religious and faith lines. Upon their return Mr. Morring says that he noticed that his wife and mother-in-law were more frequently in prayer than formerly, and that Mis.-Mack was the leader In the religious manifestations, the daughter being more of a subject. A day or so ago Mr. Morring became alarmed when Mrs. Mack laid down by the stove and declared that the Lord commanded her to do so. The next day Mrs Mack denuded herself of her cloth ing, and It was then that the neighbors were called in. Rolls Like Holy Rollers. The unfortunate elderly woman would roll on the floor not dissimilar to the Holy Roller contingent. She would shriek. "Praise, the Lordl" and the daughter, who remained in bed, would assume" a devout attitude and echo the elderly woman's words with violent laughter. Mr. Morring says that never before were the women in such a deplorable condition, and the first few days he did not look upon their actions with any particular dis favor, thinking it religious fervor. The attending physician separated the two women, and then found that the daughter was able to converse in telligently, from time to time, until the mother would again enter the room. He found'that when the mother would make motions, the daughter would follow the suggestion, and that when the mother would pray the daughter would assume a position of adoration, -with clasped hands, devout ly looking into space. Dr. Tamlesie thinks this is a case that requires the attention of the State Board of Health, and also the State Medical Board, if not the peace author ities themselves. In Devotions for Hours. According to Mr. Morring's story, the two women, when in Portland at the healing meeting, went into a room upstairs and prayed for hours, al though he was not with them at the time. The physician thinks that the daughter would soon regain her nor mal mental condition, provided the in fluence of the mother were removed, as the young woman's condition is the re sult more of the law of hypnotic sug gestion than from a purely mental dis turbance. Another daughter of Mrs. Mack is expected at the Morring home any day, and the husband has been ad vised to remove the mother-in-law to a place of safety before there are fur ther complications. BELIEVE IX POWER OF PRATER Superintendent of Missionary Alli ance Denies Teaching Fanaticism. C. D. Sawtelle. superintendent of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, whose meetings are held in a hall at the corner of Sixth and Main streets, declared last night that he did not remember anyone by the name of Mack or Morring having been to see him. "Two women were at one of our Friday afternoon meetings several weeks ago." said Mr. Sawtelle, "and thev told me they were from Farmington. I could see that they were inclined to be radical, and if they had been given the least bit of encouragement would no doubt have gone farther with outward signs than we go. While we believe that the sick are cured by Jesus Christ now Just the same as during the time he was on earth, we do not have any fanaticism about our teachings. We simply believe in the power of prayer." Conflagration at Wellington. WELLINGTON. N. Z.,1 Oct. 21. The biggest conflagration in the history of the city occurred this morning. The Union Bank, the new building of the Bank of New South Wales, the Com mercial Hotel and several insurance and other business houses were de WARM WELCOME TO GJOA Captain Amundsen to Be Decorated by King Haakon.

Captain Amundsen has received a ca blegram from Prime Minister Michaelson. of Norway, stating that King Haakon will decorate him with the grand cross of the St. Olaf Order as an acknowledgment of his distinguished services. . The deco ration referred to by the Prime Minister is the highest honor within the gift of the Norwegian monarch, and. with the excep tion of the Prime Minister. Captain Amundsen Is the only person who has re ceived it during the present reign. About a carload of samples and speci mens of the animal and bird life and min erals discovered on the three-years' voy age in the far north will be shipped East. Captain Amundsen expects to be ready to start East next Thursday. On the way East he will, by request, stop at Minneapolis. St. Paul. Chicago, Washing ton and Philadelphia, where he will speak briefly concerning his voyage. PACKERS MAKING MONEY Talk of Sale to English Syndicate Is Xot Credited. WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 The Agricul tural Department officials are very much interested In the report from Chicago that the big packing-houses are contemplating a gigantic company to be financed bv English capital. They do not look for the carrying out of any such project. For years the packing companies have been straining every effort to create the im pression that they are actng Independent ly of each other Officials here declare tha' notwithstand ing the rigorous beef inspection measures now being enforced, the packing-houses are being operated with a big profit. They cannot see wherein there would be any serious disadvantage for the packers as the outcome of such a deal, for foreign corporations would be absolutely at the merry of the- respective s'-ates.

WIDE AREA IS DEVASTATED Wind Reaches a Velocity or Fifty Two Miles an Hour and for Hours Kept a Thtrty-Elght-Mile Gait. SALT LAKE CITY. Oct. 21 For the past 24 hours this city and vicinity has been swept by a wind storm of unpar alleled severity. In addition to three seri ous accidents to persons, property has been devastated over a wide area, a fire fanned by the wind has obliterated the new plant of the TTtah Packing Company and a monetary loss of approximately J250.000 Is entailed. During: the full period of the storm trains have arrived Irregularly or not at all. For much of the time the street-car Fervlce has been at a standstill and the electric lighting plants are out of com mission. The burning Bf the Utah packing plant. north of the city, which occurred last night, is the most serious single loss. The building had Just been completed at a cost of $100.0io and was to have been put in use In a few days. The project was in augurated by Western cattlemen and was in opposition to the large packing-houses of the East. The cause of the fire has not been ascertained. Only a small frac tion of the loss is covered by insurance. Great Havoc by Wind. Ruined buildings, fallen-ln chimneys, broken windows, loosened signs and top pled trees throughout this and adjoining towns are the most common souvenirs of the storm and aggregate an immense loss. The wind attained a maximum velocity of 52 miles an hour at 9 o'clock Saturday night and between 5 and 6 o'clock Sunday morning. For hours it maintained an average speed of 35 miles an hour. The local weather bureau has been handi capped, but expresses the opinion that the storm Is local and with little effect north of Ogden or south o! Prove The greatest sufferers from the storm were Captain William G. Cahoon and Driver Fred Culbranson. of the fire de partment. They were caught under a 'ailing tree as they were driving to a fire. Cahoon had both legs broken and Cul branson was Injured internally. Both are in a hospital Beautiful Window in Fragments. A beautiful MoFalo window, which cost J30"fl. in the new Presbyterian Church, was broken to bits; the Grand Restaurant, on Second South street, was demolished, and the Belmont Hotel was ' unroofed. A freight car In a Short Line freight train coming from Ogden was lifted bodily from the tracks. The only mall received today was from Los Angeles over the San Pedro. Los Angeles & Salt Lake line. The only tele graph wires available tonight are two to Denver along the Rio Grande Western and one to Los Angeles. Last night the city was dependent upon a single copper strand to Denver for outside communica tion. The wind is blowing tonight, but with Its violence diminished. GREAT COLD IX WYOMING.

Oct. 21 Parliament reassem bles next Tuesday, with two vexatious controversies before it. and the meeting promises to attract renewed attention to publio questions The session will be marked by two conflicts, one being in the House of Lords and one in the House of Commons, over the education bill, and the other between the government and labor party over the workmen's compensation bill. During the recess now coming to a close the Socialistic, wing of the labor party has opposed the government's candidate and the political measure is considered something of a test of the government's ability to hold the support of the labor members of the House of Commons. The controversy between the House of Lords and the House, of Commons over the education bill may lead to serious consequences, and possibly cause an ap peal to the country, for the two houses are apparently irreconcilable over the measure. The House of Lords shows lit tle disposition to yield to the lower house, and the main purpose of the bill, that of giving the country a better educa tional system, is for the time being for gotten in the intensity of the strife be tween the two houses. The Irish question is a slumbering vol cano which may break out at any mo ment, but there is believed to be a tacit understanding that it will go over to the next session for full discussion. CHANGES IX EXGLISH CABINET Campbell-Bannerman Soon to Be Raised to Peerage. LONDON, Oct. 21. According to the Morning Post, the close of the Autumn or the beginning of the next session of Parliament Is likely to see Important changes in the Cabinet. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman. the Premier, probably will be raised to the peerage, and will lead the Liberals In the House of Lords, remaining, however, as Pre mier. This would enable the aged Marquis of Ripon to retire as Liberal leader in the House of Lords, and H. H'. Asquith would become Liberal leader in the House of Commons. Chief Secretary for Ireland Bryce is also expected to go to the House of Lords, succeeding the Marquis of Ripon as IOrd of the Privy Seal, and Winston Churchill will enter the Cabinet as Chief Secretary for Ireland. TUNNEL UNDER THE STERN Divers Pass Hawser ' Under the Sunken French Submarine. BIZERTA, Tunis. Oct. 2L The divers who are working on .the French sub marine boat Lutin, which went down off this port October 16 with 14 men and two officers on board, today suc ceeded In digging a tunnel under her stern, through which a hawser was passed. The operations were conduct ed under the personal supervision of M. Thompson, the French Minister of Marino. All efforts' to remove the bodies from the Lutin have proved v: isuccessful. Through the window of the hatch divers have perceived two corpses with arms interlocked. The position of these bodies Is such as to make it Im possible to open the manhole, and therefore ingress to the submarine cannot be had. The two bodies seen from outside cannot be Identified, but there Is reason to believe that one clad in a white snirt Is that of Lieutenant Fepoux. commander of the Lutin. The weights of the submarine, with the exception of those on the star board bow. are in position. The star board weight has been broken off, and. with Its fastenings, lies on toe bottom.

ANSWERS ARIZONA OBJECTIONS Assume No Repudiated Debt of Counties. SCHOOL SYSTEM IS GOOD . English Taught and Spoken Ameri can Populaiion ' Fast Overtaking Mexicans Vast Development of the State s Wealth. BT IF A E. BENNETT. SANTA FE. N. M . Oct. 21.-Herbert J. Hagerman. the young and handsome Gov ernor of New Mexico, was discovered by President Roosevelt. Strange as it may seem. Hagerman was not one of tha Rough Riders, and he never saw San Juan Hill. He went to Washinuton to push through the statehood bill, saw tha President, and impressed him. He was not a candidate for Governor. The Pres ident gave him the place and upset tha plans of many old-time politicians. Governor Hagerman sat at his desk in the little capitol at Santa Fe the other day and discussed the statehood question. It was pleasant to see the flash of his ey when he listened to the tales of Arizona politicians regarding New Mexico and her motives In working for Joint Statehood. Will Not Assume Repudiated Debt. "They tell me in Arizona." I said, "that the reason why Kew Mexico is so anxious to marry Arizona Is that the new state, will be forced to assume the repudiated debt of New Mexican counties, which amounts to $rjfl0,ono or more." "That." replied Governor Hagerman. coolly, "is a it- it is an Arizona lie. At tempts have been made several times to have the Legislature of New Mexico as sume the debt of the county of Santa Fe. and they have always failed. The mora prosperous counties will not stand It. Now. with the additional representation of Arizona In the proposed State Legisla ture, Is there any reason to think that tha New Mexican counties can saddle their debt upon the State?" Public School System. "They say also that New Mexico has practically no public school system" here Governor Hagerman sniffed "and that denominational schools are essential ly a part of the system, getting a shara of the public money." "The public schools of New Mexico ara as good, as those of any State In tha Union," said the Governor. "It is diffi cult to be patient in the face of such will ful misrepresentations. Now, as to tha payment of public moneys to denomina tional schools, I am not sure, but I shall look it up." He did so, upon the spot, and added: "I find that with the exception of JWO given to a hospital conducted by a sectarian, society, but which Is open to everybody, not a dollar of public money Is given to any denominational institution. New? Mexico has a population of about 300.000. There are 900 school teachers and 40.01Y1 pupils. The receipts for school purposes are $0O0OO a year, and the. value, of school houses and furniture is JWXono." "How about the speaking and teaching of Spanish in the schools?" "Spanish is spoken to a great extent, of course." said the Governor. "Tha Mexican population is about 60 per cent! of the total. But every teacher is re quired to speak the English language, an English Is taught in every school. Within 10 years every child in New Mexico, practically, will speak English. Mexican parents are almost invariably anxious to educate their children, and will go through; great hardships to keep them in school. Americans Will Soon Prevail. "Great stress is laid upon the fact that the Mexican population predominates In this Territory." continued Governor Hag erman. "It is true that it does now, but it will not continue long. During the year ended June 30, 1906. there were homestead entries aggregating 1,115.575 acres In New Mexico, and desert land entries aggregat ing 150.S95 acres, practically all of this land being taken up by American farmers from Iowa.
