RESOLUTIONS ARE PASSED Chamber of Commerce Declares That Proposed Immigration Regula tion Would Tend to Disrupt the Present Relations. SEATTLE. WMh., March 20. (Special.) Th Seattle Chamber of Commerce to day adopted resolutions declaring that the -proposed Immigration treaty with Japan threatens the commercial and social rela tions between the two countries and Is an unjust discrimination against the Jap anese in favor of European immigrants. The important features of the resolution which will be sent to the President are: "It is the opinion of the Seattle Cham ber of Commerce that a majority ot the people of the Pacific Coast are not In favor of any immigration law that will treat the people of Japan differently from the way in which we treat the people of any European country. We recognize that the United States and the Empire of Japan are bound together by ties of trade, commerce and old friendship, which in the past have proved of great advantage to both countries, and if preserved,, con tain a sure pledge of still greater benefits ior the future. "We believe that any Immigration treaty which would discriminate against Japan by denying to the people of the country ordinary rights or privileges granted to the people of other civilized countries would be uncalled for and would be detrimental to the trade and' commerce of the Pacific Coast and by checking the growth, development and prosperity of this section, would tend directly to nar row the field of employment for our own people and decrease the demand for our own labor."

Charges have been filed with the land board to the effect that 'the irrigating company has collected money and failed to perform Its part of the contract. The committee thus appointed will first make a request to examine the books of the company, which It is understood will be refused. In this event the committee is to do Its work without any expense whatever to the state. TO SETTLE LABOR TROUBLE Agreement Promised Between Seattle Union and Master Builders. SEATTLE, Wash.. March 20. (Special.)

One plant will be that of the Co-operative Com pany, which will cost $5400 and be operated Winter and Summer, while the other will probably be of smaller capacity and used only during the Summer. When the people who own the i-reameries t Haines and Richland discovered that Andrew Wllkie.

LIGHT BOXD ISSUE IS VALID Becision in Case to Prevent Invest ment of School Funds. OLYMPIA, Wash., March 20. (Special.) The State Supreme Court decided .today that the stWO.COO Seattle light bond issue was valid. This is the termination of a suit brought in the name of the state by the Attorney-General against the Board or land Commissioners to prevent the purchase by the board of the bonds as an investment for the state permanent school fund. The chief point raised in the proceed ings was that the ordinance providing for the election on the bonds was introduced at-we Council meeting and passed one week later by the Council. It was con tended that the law provided for but one meeting a month by the Council and that the second meeting was an ad journment of the first. This, It was ar gued, would bring the matter within the nhibitlon that a special election ordi nance must not be introduced and passed at the same meeting. The Supreme Court holds that the sec ond meeting was not an adjourned meet ing, and that anyway the question is not' a vital one, as the main issue is: Was proper notice of election given and did the voters- authorize the issue? Both of these questions are answered affirm atively. '-..'" LARGE SUM IX SHORT TIME North Bend Men Subscribe $70,000 for Building Association. MARSHFIELD, Or., March 17. (Spe. rial.)

Despite technical irregularities which threatened to prevent the charter amend ment known as the "free-water bill" from being submitted at the June election the voters will have the opportunity to pass on the measure. The Council yes terday passed a resolution, introduced by Annand, declaring that It was the sense of the assembly that the election be or dered, but action on the bill itself was delayed until the McNary enabling act. prescribing a procedure for the filing of Initiative petitions, shall have ' been passed upon, which will be done this aft ernoon, when an adjourned meeting will be held. W. R. McGarry. C. E. S. Wood and B. 3. J. McAllister spoke on behalf of the measure and urged that the Council order the election.- They said that even the McNary enabling ordinance would not remedy the technical defects. They said the Council was not .to determine wheth er the bill was right or wrong, but was duty-bound to recognize thousands of cit izens who had signed the petition. The speakers wanted the Council to order the election before the passage of the McNary ordinance. They said the petition had been circulated according to the precedent established before the U'Ren law was enacted by the Legis lature. . They desired the Council -to give it legal recognition before the McNary ord'nance went into effect. The resolution ordering the election would probably have passed had not Gray raised the point that. If adopted before the McNary ordinance, it might conflict with the bill of the central water com mittee that also will be presented to the voters. He thought that both measures should be on equal footing. Hold Lengthy Discnssion. Councilmen and citizens discussed the question for three solid hours. No one Beemed to have a clear conception of what he was arguing about. Frank J. Perkins, secretary of the central water committee, finally took a hand in the dis cussion, saying that th free-water bill would have an unfair advantage if adopt ed before the other measure. Annand than introduced his resolution, which pledged the Councilmen to order the elec tion on the free-water bill. It was car ried with a rush. The McNary ordinance then came up. and another prolonged discussion ensued. It provides that Initiative petitions must be filed within GO days before election, but Kellaher wanted it amended to read 46 days in order to give those who are circulating petitions more time. His mo tion was voted down. If the McNary ordinance should pass as it now stands there remains about 15 days more in which to file petitions. Belding wanted the ordinance amend ed to read 90 days, which would shut out the petitions which have not been filed. The Council would still have 60 days in which to act, but if his amendment had carried the Council would have been able to decide upon all the petitions and could have approved or rejected them at its pleasure. The Councilmen resolved to take more time for consideration, and adjourned until this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Free Employment Bureau. The Council ordered that the question of the establishment of a free employ ment bureau be submitted to the people. A charter amendment is necessary. It is alleged that innocestt loggers and la borers are often victims of "sharks," who collect fees from them and then send them to places where there is no work. A resolution was passed authorizing the city to accept a deed to the tract of land on the Montavilla carline that will be presented by Dr. S. A. Brown, and Dr. E. C. Brown as a site of a detention home for incorrigibles. Judge (Frazer explained that, while the detention home would be managed by the county, the Browns wanted the land held in the name of the city, so that in case the buildings should be removed the ground could be converted into playgrounds for children. SHEPHERD WIELDS GAVEL Presides Over Council Meeting in Place of Mayor, Who Is 111. Mayor Lane was ill with ptomaine poisoning yesterday and Councilman Shep herd, who is still withholding his resigna tion, occupied the chair at the Council. It was the first time that Mayor Lane has ever been absent from the Council meetings. Months ago when Shepherd announced that he would resign he was elected President of the Council out of courtesy. But he did not reciprocate the courtesy of the other members, who believed he would hand in his resignation,, as he has held fast to his job, and now it looks as though he will not step out until his term expires. Shepherd had great fun with the gavel yesterday. Whenever there was the least confusion he would rap for order to show his authority, and time and time again he corrected Councilmen who attempted to speak out of their turn. Every time anyone referred to him as "Your Honor" his face flushed with pride. In fact he enjoyed his distinction as much as a schoolboy elected chairman of a junior debating society. . Nearly every ordinance that came up he examined personally and read aloud to the Council. This is ordinarily done by the reading clerks. He also voted on every question that came up. Shepherd will probably occupy the chair again today, as Mayor Lane has been very ill. Tuesday night the Mayor's con dition was serious, but yesterday he zrew better rapidly. He will probably be out Tviimn a aay or two. Pupils Study Municipal Government Principal Alderson. of the St. Johns 6EE l'AOB 14, I XO&E CITY PARK COTS school, was present at the meeting of the St. Johns Council Tuesday night, with ten of his pupils, to give the latter an opportunity to study methods of city gov ernment. The pupils of the. St. Johns school have organized a Council, withVa Mayor and other officers.

On the contrary, it is understood that the school municipal government will extend an in vitation to the St. Johns Council to visit the school tomorrow afternoon to witness an up-to-date Council session. INSANITY AND CRIME. Paper by Dr. Williamson Before Local Medical Society. A meeting of the City and County Med ical Society was held last night in the Chamber of Commerce auditorium. The feature of the meeting was a paper on "Dementia Preacox as a Defense for Crime," read by Dr. W. T. Williamson. The paper stimulated a great deal ot in terest, and was especially appropriate be cause of the great Interest in the subject aroused by the Thaw trial. Dr. William son spoke in part as follows: , "Brain storm, if by that is meant ln pulslve insanity, may well be considered as a theory subject to much abuse, in that a man may be sane enough just be fore and just after the commission of a crime, and yet have been irresistibly and unavoidably compelled to its perpetration. "A Judge of the Supreme Court of Washington reoently stated In substance that he questioned the reasonableness of the claim that a man became Insane jus as he grabbed the pistol with which he shot his victim, and immediately there after regained his insanity. But however repellant such a picture is to us, medical truth compels the frank admission that it may be found in fact, although, fortu natley, so rarely as to 'be classed as a medical curiosity. "There are such things as emotional etorms. In dementia preacox. They may be found In some other conditions, as in neurasthenia and hysteria. But in the manifestations there are radical and es sential differences. The hysterical and neurasthenic ebullitions have usually been preceded by introspective or other gloom, accompanied by apparent and un derstandable motives: but in dementia praecox, the absence of motive, the ab rupt Independence of prelude or sequence of action, and the Immediate indifference to the act committed are characteristic. The act is incongruous in its associations and does not co-ordinate in the mind with the act, or with ordinary purpose or with satisfactory results. Such an act as that committed by Harry Thaw, for which he is now on trial, is by no means charac teristic of dementia praeoox, for just these reasons: That if the reasons for which he slew bis enemy were imaginary, delusive conceptions, his conduct could have been condoned by paranoia: but such a belief is neither suspected nor al leged. "What can. we say of the experts em ployed in that case? The jury system is beautiful In principle, antagonistic to tyranny, strong in the elements of econ omy and fairness, just what a Washing ton or a -Lincoln would commend. 'Jurymen cannot understand, cannot be expected to understand the import and significance of much testimony, such as that of a technical character, for in stance; and the courts have wisely pro vided that persons specially skilled or learned in such special or technical knowl edge may be called on oath to testify as to the value, the meaning and the In terpretation of those features which otherwise would be unintelligible or cha otic. The, limit of the field of the ex pert witness then evidently Is to make plain to the comprehension of the juror such points as otherwise from lack of such special knowledge could not be un derstood merely to Interpret the values, explain causes and effects of conditions presented, and proclaim the slgnincance of facts adduced in evidence. They should make the obscure or technical points so clear to the jurymen that they may as similate them with other .facts already understood. In order to reach judgment. 'It is not creditable to the honesty or integrity of an"expert witness to have it said that he carefully protected the in terests of his eide during his examination. for then he turns from being a mere wit ness and becomes an advocate: he turns his back on scientific truth andi becomes a nerjurer. It is a sad commentary on professional respect and standing that physicians on the respective staes win give diametrically opposite answers to the same hypothetical question, ana tnereDy hold the general profession up to public ridicule and contempt. 'The crimes, then, that a demented per son may commit without , responsibility are only those impulsive and unpremeai tated acts that project themselves across his mental horizon as does the meteor across the sky, -bursting unexpectedly out of the darkness from no one knows wnence, and quickly vanishing in the gloom, extinguished and forgotten, no on knows whither. GAMBLERS ARE SURPRISED Police 4 Break In on Chinese and Arrest All Present. Patrolmen Phillips and Wendorf raid ed a Chinese gambling joint on the third floor of 145V4 Second street about I o'clock this morning and ar rested the lookout, six gamblers and five spectators, all of whom were re leased on bail. Phillips located the place and, ac companied by Wendorf, rapped on the door. To a greeting In Chinese Phil lips responded with a haphazard ex presslon and, to the officers' surprise, the door was thrown open. On catch ing a glimpse of the uniforms, the lookout ran hastily, shouting warn ings to the gamblers, but the officers managed to force an entrance into the inner room before the players had time to bide all the money in evidence and placed the entire crowd under arrest. - POOLROOM CASE IS ENDED pistrict Attorney's Office Moves That Prisoners Be Discharged. Martin Ready and James Hicks, two poolroom employes, who were arrested and convicted in October. 1906, of operat ing a public gambling device, are to es cape the consequence of their miscon duct, notwithstanding their conviction on the first trial. On motion of the District Attorney, the cases were dismissed yes terday, on the ground that it would be impossible to secure testimony at this late date to convict. The case has been dragging along since- the date of conviction, at which time a motion for a "new -trial was made. The motion was granted, and the trial was to have been had at an early date.

DECREES NOT OF RECORD Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Tubbs Find Themselves Still Married, Though the Wife's Complaint Was Granted in 1890. More than 100 couples who have gone through the divorce mill of Multnomah County and fancy themselves legally di vorced are in reality still married. Many of these men and women have re married and the domestic and property tangles which this fact may involve is bewildering to consider. This state of affairs, due to defective divorce records, became generally known yesterday after noon for the first time. That the list of irregularly divorced couples easily includes 200 men and wo men Is now known, and the total may reach several times that number, as a result of the thorough investigation of the Circuit Court records, which is now being made. Neglect in completing the records is re sponsible for the faulty divorce decrees. The blame generally lies with the attor neys in the various cases, who have failed to present the divorce papers for record. According to a Supreme Court ruling made several years ago a divorce does not become effective until "this record is filed. The mere announcement from the bench that the parties to a suit are di vorced does not suffice. After being granted a divorce by the presiding Judge in open court a couple may leave the courtroom and continue to live together as man and wife without remarriage and without having the court's decision set aside. ' The first vlct'.ms of this technicality appeared yesterday forenoon and througb th'eir experience it later became known how extensive is the divorce tangle. The case in question has remained undis covered during 17 years, during which time Hilda A. Tubbs and Tona A. Tubbs, the parties concerned, have believed them selves divorced. The divorce was granted to Mrs. Tubbs In 1890 on the grounds of desertion. It is alleged that the clerk of the court neglected to file the decree and that Mrs. Tubbs in consequence has been deceived as to her legal status. The status of the case was called to the attention of Judge Sears by Attorney Idleman, who asked that the decree be placed on record and the divorce made regular, "now for then," as the lawyers say. The petition was allowed. It is believed that attorneys In many cases have failed to file these decrees because of the failure of clients to pay fees. Many instances are cited where clients, after getting their divorce, have decamped without so much as saying "Thank you" to the lawyer In the case. Whereupon the lawyer would retaliate by withholding the decree and there was no divorce. Whatever the cause may be. there are scores of incomplete divorces, capable of creating endless litigation, and many of those who have reason to believe they are divorced but are not sure of it will probably make haste to consult the rec ords. NANKEVIIiTjE CHARGES PIRACY Says the Lyric Produced "Human Hearts" Without Permission. Keating & Flood, managers of the Lyric Theater, have ben sued for $2800 damages, by W. E. Nankevllle, a the atrical manager, for presenting "Hu man Hearts," the week: of October 21, 1906, without permission of the owner. Attorney John F. Logan filed the complaint with the clerk of the United States Circuit Court, yesterday after noon. This is the first case of the kind to be filed in a court under the new law, In this state. Kankeville accuses the. Lyric man agers of piracy, but the latter say this is not a fact, as they secured and produced "Human Hearts" in the belief that they had a right to do so, by pay ing the usual royalty. Nankevllle al leges in the complaint that the produc tion of the play by the Lyric people interfered with the success of his own road company, when he put on the same drama at the Empire theater. "Human Hearts" was sold to Nanke vllle for a song. Nankevllle is a crip pie, and says he needs the money which he seeks as damages from the Lyric management.
