THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY. OCTOBER 1, 1907. v. FORAKER 'S Mi 15 TURNED DOWN Roosevelt Ignores Ohio Sen ator's Indorsement for. Max Burgheim. LISTENS TO LONGWORTH eon-ln-Lay and George Cox Dictate Appointment, Which Means That Taft's Lieutenants Can Get "What They Ask For. WASHINGTON. Sept. Sfc (Special.) The procsa of eliminating Joseph Ben Bon Foraker from Ohio politics Is moving awlftly. The developments of today have emphasized the fact that Senator For aker la no longer a factor In control of the Federal patronage under the pres ent National administration even to the extent that one in his official position friendly or otherwise, is usually conceded consideration when his party is in power at Washington. Bernhardt Eettman has been selected for collector of internal revenue at Cin cinnati, according to announcement made at the "White House this evening. Sen ator Foraker. who naturally . would dic tate the appointment, selected Max Burg helm, edltqr of the Volksblatt, as his candidate fer the position and recom mended him accordingly. It la understood that Senator Dick said "me, too." A few days ago President Roosevelt practically admitted having received the senatorial Indorsement. Taft's Men Given Preference. Bcttman was appointed internal rev enue collector several years ago on For aker's recommendation and served nearly two terms, resigning about a year ago because he was tired and was in poor health. HLs deputy who succeeded him resigned a few weeks ago and Foraker then picked Burgheim. Foraker's friends now say Foraker thought Bettman did not want "it again, but at any rate the President put the question up to Repre sentative Nicholas ljongworth, and Ixmg worth and George Cox, the old time Cin cinnati boss,, fixed up Bettmann and per suaded him to assume the harness again. I,ongworth and Cox. it is said, did rot consult Foraker, which shows two things plainly: first, that the umpires In tha case didn't care for Foraker's opinion one way or the other, and, sec ond, that Cox and his organization are sticking to the movement In Ohio that means Taft for the Presidency and Foraker to the discard so far as those In power in his home city are con cerned. Bettmann's appointment was a sur prise to moat of the politicians who, analyzing thoroughly, hold that it Is designed to have a big effect on Taft's candidacy by strengthening him throughout the State of Ohio as a whole. Double Dose for Foraker. Within two days Foraker has had a double-barreled dose, the development today following upon the heels of the Republican municipal convention at Cincinnati' on Saturday, when harmony was the watchword and the factional differences were buried without any help from Foraker and without even passing reference to the services or personality of the Senator at any stage of the proceedings. Nicholas Longworth, President Roosevelt's son-in-law, presided over the convention and made a speech of great National significance, whioh thus far has received strikingly meager at tention outside of Ohio. It was a Taft speech as well as a speech devoted to local issues, and an Important feature was a significant declaration by the -President's aon-in-l:iw that Roosevelt must be taken at his word regarding a third term. Taft. it was declared; is the man who represents the Roosevelt policies which the people demand shall be continued. MAY PROSECUTE KIDNAPERS Older 1cavcs Case Kntirely In Hands of Hcney. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 30. Assist ant District Attorney Francis J. Hcney may Institute criminal proceedings asslnst R. Porter Ashe and Luther Brown, of the United Railroads, for the part they played last week in the arrest of Fremont Older, man aging editor of the Bulletin, and- his removal from the city and county with out privilege of bail. Mr. Hcney said today: "I am looking into the matter care fully, and If 1 And that an offense against the law was committed I shall take legal action. I am not prepared to say more at this time." Mr. Older said: "I have turned the whole matter over to Mr. Heney. He will decide whether criminal suits are to be brought. The statement Is being circulated that I was not kidnaped, be cause I was legally placed under ar rest and was removed from the county by officers of the law duly qualified. This Is not true. T was arrested on a warrant by an officer of, the -law a Los Angeles Constable -but he at once turned me over to the employes of the United Railroads, by whom I was physically restrained from the ex ercise of my statutory right to be taken before a San Francisco magis trate, and by whom I was hustled to Santa Barbara. It was an employe of the United Railroads who poked a pistol In my ribs and threatened to shoot me if I made an outcry." TROUBLE SIMMERS IN CUBA Troops Pursue Outlaws and Strike Ties Up Railroads. HAVANA. Cuba. Sept. 90. The small band of rebels which has been traversing the country in the vicinity of Mayari; In the northern section of Santiago province, has. according to late dispatches, again exchanged shots with the pursuing ru ralea. The latter are close on the heels of the bandits. While there are signs of uneasiness in ""various parts of the Island, the opinion prevails here that no serious disturb ances are likely. In commenting on the situation, the Dlarlo de La Marina says: "A 'combination of unpleasant cir cumstances having no link with each other appears to :puke the situation at first sight more t-rlous tia. It really Is. Kj'h one of t: problems that are st present confronting the administra tion the yellow fever epidemic, the conspiracy of Parra, Miret and Ducassl, the existence of bands of outlaws in the country and the railroad strike, Is of an alarming character, but except for the tendency of the strike to be come general and stop railway com munication throughout the island these events are of no great Importance in themselves. "The yellow fever has not spread, and there appears no danger of a gen eral epidemic, as cases are compara tively few up to the present time. The conspiracy was a very ridiculous one, and even if it had succeeded in induc ing some fools to take the field, it would have been nipped In the bud. The Mayari band of outlaws cannot be considered of more importance than many other previous bands of guerril las who have occasionally appeared In Cuba. N "There is no reason, therefore, for extraordinary alarm, or for believing; Cuba Is on the brink of an abyss. "Even the strikers have not as yet committed any act of violence. If their disagreement with the railway com panies is not settled, other men will be found shortly to run the trains. In this case, any attempts on the part of the strikers to resort to force will be pre vented and punished according to law. The situation, for all these reasons, is not so grave, and the Government has ample means to cope with it." Cienfugos may soon become the trou ble zone. The waiters there are on strike, and others plan to strike soon. Tt Is reported also that political trou ble is coming in that vicinity, where conspirators have been active. Most people think that the railroads and other strikes offer more prospects of serious trouble than the threatened revolution. The lightermen of Havana harbor will probably strike today, and the stevedores in a few days. Governor Magoon has determined to deal with outlaws and insurrectionists with a strong hand. The orders of the rurales, it is stated, are to capture, kill or drive them into the ocean. Strike Will Xot Delay Malls. WASHINGTON, Sept. 30. The railway strikers in Cuba have- declared that the movement inaugurated by them shall not Interfere with the movement of the mail so far as they, are conperned. This is the attitude ascribed to them in a dis patch received at the War Department from Governor Magoon. WILL jT ALTON BOARD HARRIM.W'tVIMi JjET CLOVER LEAF TAKE CONTROL. Could Force Election as Union Rep resentative, but Allows New Owners to Step In. NEW YORK, Sept. SO. (Special.) UE. H. Harrlman will not be re-elected a director of the Chicago & Alton Rail road at the annual meeting of share holders to be held tomorrow at Chica go. James Stillman will also dropped from the management. As a representative of the $10,340, 000 of Alton preferred stock owned by the Union Pacific, Mr. Harrlman could probably force his re-election, as the stock of the Alton has cumulative vot ing power. In view of the impending change in the management of the Al ton, however, that course will not be followed. Mr. Hawlman's official con nection with the Alton will end tomor row. ' Later this week, either Wednesday or Thursday, One or more representatives of the Rock Island in Alton will re sign in favor of the Clover Leaf Inter ests. Either Edwin Hawley or one of his associates will be placed on the Alton board. After that the Rock Island directors will gradually retire. E. H. Harrlman is still confined by Illness to his home. It Is believed, however, that he will be able to go down town either this week or next. Try Santa Fe Road for Rebating. LOS ANGELES. Cal., Sept. 30. The prosecution of the Santa Fe Railroad Company for alleged giving of rebates began in the United States District Court this morning. District Attorney Oscar I.awler is in charge of. the case for the Government. The Santa Fe is accused of granting rebates to the Grand Can yon Lime & Cement Company, which last year shipped hundreds of cars loaded with material over that road from Nel son, Ariz., to the Ganahl Lumber Com pany, of Redondo and other parties. The dt-alers are not Involved in the indict ments. The information charges that the regu lar tariff on cement between the points named was $3.50 per ton. but that the railroad company granted to the cement concern a considerably lower ' rate rh m this. It is charged that on carload ship ments by the cement qompany, where the tonnage waa mucn jess man -v tons to the car,, the railroad company agent charged the straight rate of JS.50 per ton. instead of J70 carload rate, thus affording a preferential rate. The trial will bo technical and Is expected to con sume two weeks. Hanan shoes keep your feet dry. Rosen thal s. Seventh and Washington.
