It was announced at the convention of the Associated Union of Steamshovel and Drcdgemen. held here yesterday, that a committee had been appointed to confer with the President on the matter.

H0D50N 15 NONCOMMITTAL People's Choice for United States Senator Will Have Practically the Solid Vote of Multno- mal) County legislators. -'"That Multnomah's holdover Senators in the Legislature will vote for Bourne for United States Senator Is the assur ance given, out by Senators Malarkey, Nohel and Nottingham. Senator Hod son declined yesterday to be inter viewed on the subject, but lie la ex pected, to vote the same way. Senator Mays Is In Wasco County, and could not be reached yesterday. It is con sidered doubtful whether he will at tend toe Uejcialatlve session. The holdover Senators were elected In June, 1904, and their campaign was wng-ed bofore the direct primary law. for choosing Senators by popular vote, was enacted, and two years before Kourno became a candidate. None of them, therefore. Is bound, by pre-elec-t Ion pledfces. to support Bourne, as are the two new Senators for Multnomaji, Heach and Bailey, who were elected in June, 1$06, Breach having: promised to support the "Republican voters i-holce" and fiai ley the "People's choice." Bourne was the Republican voters choice in the primaries in April, and the people's choice in the general elec tion in June. Solid Multnomali Vote.

The five are fieutgen, Chap- in, Freeman, Nortliup and "Wilson, and the eight are Adams. Boyer, Burns, I r1scol 1. . Coffey, P'arrell, Beveridge and Campbell. 1 Senator Malarkey said that since the voters of the state had declared them- pelves unmistakably as wanting Sena tors elected by the popular -vote plan of the direct primary law, and in a subsequent election had chosen Bourne for election by the Legislature by that method, he considered it the duty of the Irf'jfislature to abide by the popular method and the popular choice and make Bourne the new United States Senator for the long term, beginning March 4. 'Tliere can be no doubt as to the popular will in this matter," said Sen ator Malarkey. "The decisive major.- ties by which the direct primary law was enacted and Bourne was chosen as the people's choice, feave no ques- tion about it. On other subjects before the lrf"Klslature there may be room for dnubt, jis to what the people want. On this or that hill In the LeKlslature, I try to judge what Is the popular will and to accord with it; so do other members of that body. The result is a difference of opinion as to the will of the people. "But in the choice of United States Senator there cannot now be that dl- ver (rence of view. The vote of the peo ple lias been decisive." rcopio's Choice Decisive. Senator Malarkey continued to say that a r a holdover Senator he was not pledged to support the people's choice under the primary law, but that he felt obliged to grlve his vote to what the electors of the state wanted. The principle of direct election of Senators he believed worthy. The new plan was now put to the . test in Oregon, and should be followed out, for. if not. it would probably be cast aside, and the whole country, which Is watching the test, would be disappointed, as well as Oregon. Senator Slchel said, without heslta- t Ion. that lie would vote for Bourne. "I am not pledged to Statement No. 1," ne remarked, "as I am a holdover Sen' atnr: but I feel that I am just as much In duty bound to represent the people's wishes and vote for Mr. Bourne as 1 f I had signed that statement. Mr, Rourne la the people's choice, and otisrht to be elected." Senator Nottingham' spoke just as strongly. bald be: "I want the orin dpie of the primary law upheld. While 1 am under no obligation. In the way or a pledge, to support Mr. Bourne, the people have selected him. and I wish to be the servant of the people," CAfjJjS OV CKOMWELL AfiAlX senate Committee Also Hears Alarm- lug News About Canal. WASHTNXrTON. Jan. 8. The Senate committee on interoceanlc canals today voted to summon William Nelson Cromwell, of New York, to appear be fore It si.gR.ln to relate his relations with, the new Panama Canal Company and the sale Of the property to the United States, on which subject Mr. Cromwell on several occasions has de clined to testiry. The committee Instructed Chairman Millard to ask the Isthmian Canal Commission for a detailed report of all borings made by the Com m inn Ion along the route of the canal during the past year. The action was taken because some of th members of the committee have been informed that, the borings show that the proponed, site for the Oatun dam, the keystone of the lock canal project, is untenable. Their in formation is that the borings pass through an indurated clay bed Into mud and water, and that the founda tion Is Insufficient for a structure eo large and heavy as the one proposed. The term3 of the proposed Panama Canal con tract were considered today by the committee. It was declared by some of the Senators that the 'con tract will have the effect of making- the successful bidder only an agent of the Government and will not relieve the Government from any responsl- blllty. The committee agreed to support Senator Morgan's hill -to place the Panama Ral I road under the Isthmian Canal Commission, and thus have all the Government's affairs under only one bead. Nominations for canal com missioners were not considered. GREAT STOVE WORKS BURN l-'I II I-: TKAM WASHES INTO A CItOWD AND TKAMPLES OX IT.

Cowan, representing the Texas cattleicrowers, asked for the SLmount of damages paid by the Burlfnston. Mr. Dawes said he did not have It, and that the Burlington road had not kept Its books in such a manner as to ren der the figures available. "You come here and Justify ad- vanced rates," 1 said Commissioner Prouty. "by. claiming damage and de cline to say what these damages are. That is hardly fair. If you have not kept your books as you should, that does not alter the facts in the case." "Perhaps not,' said Mr. Dawes, "but we have not so kept our books. The matter was dually settled by the statement of Mr. Dawes that the dam ages did not exceed those on the Santa Fe road, and he would accept the au thoritatlve figures given by that line as being representative of conditions on the Burlington. J. W. Kendrlck, vice-president of the Santa Je road, wa He declared that the next witness. considered th present rates on cattle from Texas to be unreasonably low.

The men were well housed and fed. but the chief difficulty of the future, to my mind. Is the build ing of new houses. X am em phatically of the opinion that there is absolutely no necessity for the employ- merit of Chinese labor In completing the building of the canal." Mr. McKlnlay, telling of his Impres- slons of the visit, said; ''We Investigated thoroughly the work done and the conditions prevail i it K on the isthmus. X am satisfied that there Is not the slightest necessity for the employing of Chinese on the work. The ctpal zone is petting very healthy, and it seems to me to present a fine field for A me r I can workmen without employing Chinese. The work is progressing satisfactorily, and I feel assured that the canal will be com pleted within a - reasonable length of time." Congressman F".

That each country participating in the conference render obliga tory the observance of article 8 of the act of the Peace Conference of 1899 permitting- a third power to tender mediation without saving- offense between two disputing powers and aleo that the participating powers extend the BOOpe of article 8 so as to bind the signatories in case of a declaration of war, not to begin hostilities for a fortnight.

DVGDALE Judge McCredle "Would Find Little Opposition in Seattle. In answer to a telegram of inquiry, D. E. Dugdale. the ponderous pundit of baseball in Seattle, last nipht wired the sportlngf editor of The Oregronian as follows: "There Is nothing .to prevent Judge McCredle from operating; Coast League club in Seattle but opposition club from Northwestern League operated by me." It must be admitted that Dugdale would be rather heavy opposition, but it is believed here in Portland that he is not too large to be pushed aside. Opposition coming from Dugdale will not amount to much unless the Na tional Commission should declare Port land and Seattle Northwest League ter ritory. If this ie done -on Thursday Dugdale and the rest or the Northwest League, will have easy sailing-. Should the commission turn President Lucas down, as they "w ill undoubtedly do, then Dugdale, et al., must become out- laws. It may be that the Northwest people have friends in Portland who will finance a Northwest outlaw team "here. If they have, the men are keeping well under cover. It may be the hone of Dug-dale -and others that when Seattle drops, the McCredlea will follow suit. At present neither of the Mc- Credles has any notion of getting out of the Coast League.
