DENVER, Aug. 7. It was learned to day that Charles H. Moyer, president of the Western Federation of Miners, ar rived in the city last night. Mr. Moyer was accompanied by Mrs. Moyer and sis ter and went immediately to his home. The reason for his delayed home-coming Is that he desired to have no demonstra tion of any kind. It is his Idea that such things are unnecessary and do no good. Owing to the strain to which he and MOORS HREATEN EI 0 W N S Mrs. Moyer have been subjected, they kept closely at home, denying themselves to everybody. Mr. Moyer will attend the next meeting of the executive committee of the Federation, which win be held this week probably.

A meetingf the executive -committee of the Western Federation of Miners has been called and will be held as soon as President Charles H. Moyer arrives here, which will be in a few days. There is a re port in circulation to the effect that at this meeting the question of deter mining upon counsel for George H. Pettibone, who will be tried in October at Boise. Idaho, on the same charge that Secretary-Treasurer Haywood was acquitted of, will be brought up. The report also has It that Clarence Dar i'ow, the Chicago lawyer, who assisted in the defense of Haywood, will not be retained In the Pettibone case, but that E. F. Richardson, of Denver, also of counsel for Haywood, will handle the Pettibone case. Mr. Richardson has de clared in published interviews that he would not under, any circumstances again associate himself with Mr. Darrow, and a morning paper prints an inter view. In which he is credited with reiterating the above statement. A further significant remark follows: "I will try no more cases with Clar ence Darrow. I could work with Mr. Darrow, but I don't propose to do so. We (the firm of Richardson & Haw kins) have handled Western Federation litigation for years, and are still open to their employment. Mr. Haywood was in my office for over an hour today."

He ad mitted that there were personal differ ences between him and Mr. Richard son, and expressed the view that each of them would be relieved to have the other go on with the cases. SURPASSES HER SISTER THE BATTLESHIP CONNECTICUT MAKES SPEED TRIALS. First Test of Government-Built Ves sel Shows Her Swifter Than Contract-Built Rival. ROCKLAND. Me., Aug. 7. In a series of 14 runs over a measured mile course outside of the hrbor today, the first class battleship Connecticut, the first bat tleship of the class built by the Gov ernment, made a showing which was highly satisfactory to Rear Admiral Evans and the trial board. The average speed of the best five runs was 18.78 knots. The number of propellor revolu tions required to make that speed was 127.7. The fastest mile was made In 19.01 uncorrected. When the tidal corrections are made, it Is estimated that these figures will be reduced to 18.8. In her five best runs the Louisiana, a sister ship of the Connecticut, which was built by the Newport News Shipbuilding Company, attained an average speed of 18.53. The trial was marred by a fatal acci dent. T. M. "furner, a fireman of the first-class, who was borrowed from the battleship Ohio for the test, was killed by a bucket of ashes falling on him.

SUMMONS CAUSES ALARM Denizens of Disreputable Roadhouse Called as Witnesses by Defense to Tell How the Portland Team Was Entertained. WORCESTER. Mass., "Aug. 7. (Special.) Owing to the unexpected and sensa tional developments today In the 1906 Na tional regatta scandal, there Is now con siderable doubt If sportsmen who have always stood high in the councils of the National Association of Amateur Oars men will. have the nerve to go on with the suit of the Wachusetts Boat Club vs. Thomas J. Harrahy, the president of the club in that year, scheduled for trial Fri day, if they care to save their reputa-s Hons. Mr. O'Hara. attorney for the defense, caused the sensation with the issuance of witnesses' summonses to John Henry Meagher, who Instituted and brought the suit; Charles A. Mann, with a long po lice record, who now conducts the notori ous Mud Pond House at Lake Qulnslga mond; Mrs. Mars, Lottie Bartholomew, Julia Goulding, M. J. Maher and W. F. Donovan. The club sued Mr. Harrahy for 1600 which it charged he took from the club treasury and converted to bis own use. Mr. Harrahy says the money was spent in the interest of the club, which brought the regatta to Worcester, entertaining the visiting oarsmen from New York and Portland. Or., at J126 a day for automo biles and $25 a round for drinks. This money, he said, was voted back to him. Meagher led in the entertaining. Four other-women at the roadhouse are being sought by the summons servers to tell of the orgies that took place during the en tertainment. It Is doubtful now If the case Is ever tried, for Its withdrawal would effectually Bhut off the sensqglonal disclosures. , DEFY STATE LAW'S BAN 'Continued from First Page.) terly license of $7.50 to the city. In that way the public gambling has been regulated by the Police Department.

The officers will be in structed, to arrest all persons caught gambling and to confiscate all gam bling devices found in operation after that hour. PENDLETON CLOSED 3 YEARS Efforts to Resume Have Been Raid ed and Fines Imposed. PENDLETON. Or., Aug. 7. (Special.) Up to three years ago this Summer, Pendleton was a wide open town in every sense of the word, but at that time an official decree went forth that gambling must cease and since then the knights of the green cloth have had a strenuous time. They have persisted at various times in carrying on games behind closed doors, but after flourishing for a few weeks, dens have always been raided, and the gamesters fined. In the last raid, in addition to capturing the professional gamblers, three or four of the prominent citizens were taken In by the police and the heavy fines Im posed at that time seem to have had the effect of stopping every joint in the city. It Is stated by those who are in a posi tion to know that there has not been a game pulled off in Pendleton for months. A gang that was here last Winter and ran games In three dens as well as the back rooms of one or two saloons has scattered, most of the members now being located at Echo or Baker City. This was the bunch that fleeced the retired physi cian from La Grande and one or two other innocents. JAPAN IS COOLING DOWN Natives Who Went Back Have Al layed" Much Prejudice. VICTORIA, B. C, Aug. 7. Tatsuya. editor of the Japanese Trade Journal of Toklo, arrived here today to study the condition of Japanese on the Coast. He said little further difficulty was expected with regard to tho complaints from San Francisco. Yamoaka and Hattori, from Seattle, who went to Japan to represent real conditions to the Japanese had been very successful, and Japanese who had not known the real state of affairs were less prone to complain.
