PUBLIC BURIAL
TOMAHAWKS
Williams and De Armond For
get Quarrel and Are
Reconciled.
BUT OPPOSE EACH OTHER
Two Democrats Have r,ove-Fcast in
House, but Disagree on Policy.
De Armond Fears an Effort
to Block legislation.
WAPHT.VGTON Jan. S. In the pres
ence of the entire House, Williams of
Mississippi and De Armond of Missouri,
whose physical encounter on the floor
just before the Christmas adjournment
Attracted general attention, today en
gaged in an exchange of amenities which
was generally accepted as a public an
nouncement of their respective intention
not to permit their, personal differences
to Interfere with the courteous discharge
of their public duties.
The Incident occurred In connection with
an effort by Dalzell. of the committee on
rules, to Ret the House to agree to a
rule giving right-of-way to the bill au
thorizing the codification and amendment
of the pnal laws of . the United States
and limiting general -debate to four hours.
Several Democratic members expressed
the opinion that the rule was a scheme
to sidetrack other legislation. Dalzell,
however, refuted this.
Gives Way to His Enemy.
Williams came to the rescue , and fa
vored the rule, saying that Congress
ought to get rid of the report, as it em
bodied the result of the labor of the
Commission for id years. He said the
matter was wholly non-partisan In every
way.
To the surprise of every one, Williams
then yielded 10 of his 30 minutes of time
to De Armond. who politely bowed bis
acknowledgments. The two men consti
tute the minority of the committee on
rules and are necessarily thrown to
gether tn the committee's work, and
, other members of the House expressed
satisfaction over their evident intention
to preserve amenities in their official re
lations, v
Do Armond Attacks Rule.
De Armond attacked the rule because,
in his opinion, the bill, which is a very
long one, would be used as a buffer
through the entire session against other
and more important legislation.
Williams was vigorously -supported by
Sherley of Kentucky: Watkfns of Louis
iana. Houston pf Tennessee and Maceon
of Arkansas, all members of the com
mittee on revision of the laws.
The rule was passed by an overwhelm
ing majority, despite efforts of De Ar
mond and seven adherents to secure the
yeas and nays, and the House at once
proceeded to the consideration and read
ing of the bill. At the conclusion of the
reading, which consumed two hours, the
bill was laid aside and the House again
tnnb tin tVitt raanlnHnn licit i-l Kn ti n tr the
kPnosMint' mMsnirn to the "several mm- 1
mlttees, in ordr to permit Gaines of
Tennessee to address the House in favor
of an appropriation for The Hermitage,
the home of General Andrew Jackson,
near Nashville, Tenn.
LOEB GOES INTO OTHER WORK
President's Secretary to Manage
Washington Car I lues.
"WASHINGTON, Jan. . Investigations
In local financial circles by Representa
tive Smith, of Michigan, Chairman of
the House committee on the District of
Columbia, warrants him in saying that
there to be a consolidation . of the
streetcar companies of the District of
Columbia and that . 'William Loeh, Jr.,
secretary to President Roosevelt, is to' be
given the active management of -the con
solidated properties.
Mr. Smith has been making inquiry into
the streetcar situation, with the view of
getting legislation authorizing, the con
struction of lines to the now Union Sta
tion. He bad a conference with Mr.
Loeb at the White House today.
While not denying the statement
which have been made regarding his
prospective change of occupation, Mr:
Ioeb indicated that he is not yet ready
to make a' statement on the subject.
Mr. Smith said on leaving the White
House that the proposed consolidation
would Telieve the proposed legislation of
probable amendments for universal trans
fers and three-cent fares. He believed
ljoeb's Influence would greatly aid in ob
taining legislation for street railway im
provement for the District.
ARMY REDUCED TO SKELETON"
Enlistment Almost Stops and Ranks
Are Depleted. .
WASHINGTON. Jan. 8. The hard times
In the industrial world that have driven
Into the Marino Corjis and the Navy near
ly all of the men needed to fill the author
ized quotas have not helped the Army so
far in the matter of recruiting. Reports
still flow in upon the War Department of
failure t6 secure recruits: of privates
buying their discharges; of non-commissioned
officers refusing to re-enlist and
tf resulting skeleton organizations that
are little more than travesties upon fight
ing forces. A report just at hand is one
from Fort Mcintosh, Texas, in which tlie
rommandlng officer -of a battalion of the
Nineteenth. Infantry says;
"I have present today in the four com
panies 5t men and 29 of these are to be
discharged this nfSnth. . At the end of
this month if we get.no recruits one com
pany will, have three men and another
four. The other two companies will have
11 and 12 men respectively."
The report Is one of a number being
collected for the enlightenment of Con
' press (n dealing with the great question
of "what is wrong with the Army?"

Cape Hatteras, on tne North Carolina
coast., reports the stranding and loss on
the Diamond Shoals yesterday of an
unknown schooner, out of whose crew
of seven men, five perished and two were

the name of the lost vessel, reports her
as bound from JLong Point, Me., to
Charleston. S. C, laden with flsh scrap.
The captain of the vessel was among
those who were lost. ; .
The schooner, according to" the 'des
patch, went to pieces within" 33 minutes

TELLS STORY OF KOLDUP
But Turner's Statements Cause Po
lice to Become Skeptical.
A hurry call over the- telephone shortly
before 1 o'clock this morning notified the
police -that Turner Bros. saloon, on
Washington street, near the corner of
Fourth, had been held up and robbed.
The speaker gave his- name as F. . C.
Turner and said that he was one of the
proprietors. An officer dispatched to the
scene was informed by Turner that a
few minutes before, while be was making
up his cash, preparatory to 'closing, a
man entered and,- grabbing $50 which
was counted out on the bar, made a
break to get away with it. Turner says
that he grappled with the thug, but was
overcome, and he succeeded in getting
out on the street with the money in his
possession.. There were several people
passing at the time, said. Turner, and, al
though he called to them, none offered
assistance or attempted to stop the flight
of the thief.
Investigation throws some suspicion on
the story told by Turner. Turner said
that he was alone in the saloon and 'that
the thief displayed no weapon, that he
had never seen the man before and could
not give a good description of him. It
would appear that the alleged thief, af
ter grabbing the money, dallied in the
saloon long enough to permit Turner to
come around from behind the bar an-
close with him, which would be very
careless of any thief, even -the .veriest
amateur. In addition, "the driver- of a
hack who had been standing on the cor
ner, without leaving it since 11:30 P. M.,
said that Turner did not call to any -one
on the street, but that he did see Turner
throw a man out of the place at the. time
the alleged holdup was supposed to have
taken place, administering sundry blows
and giving him a good strong kick from
the rear. ,

PROMISES BIG SENSATION
Trial of George Putnam for Libel
Begins Today.
MEDKORD, Or., Jan. 8. (Special.) The
trial of George Putnam, editor of the
Medford Tribune, upon a charge of crim
inal libel, "will In all probability com
mence In the Circuit Court in Jacksonville
tomorrow. The charge against Putnam is
the outgrowth of an assault made upon
Mayor Reddy, of Medford, by W. S. Bar
num, president of the Rogue River A'al
ley Railroad, In which it was charged
that the railroad magnate attempted to
change the map of. the Mayoral anatomy
by the free use of an ax.
Barnum was bound over to the grand
jury upon the charge- of an assault with
a deadly weapon. The grand Jury re
turned a not true bill, which action' was
caustically criticised by Putnam, with a
libel suit as the result. The defendant
will, attempt to prove the truth of the
alleged libelous publication, and has sub
penacd a number of witnesses to the Bar
num assault. Considerable feeling Has
been aroused over, the manner, in which
Putnam was arrested and incarcerated in
the Roseburg jail, while eri route to spend
Christmas with his mother, and the out
come of the trial will be watched -with
interest. -

lic Buildings Advocated .
In Message. - -
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 8. The last
remnants of the Schmitz administration,
under which this community suffered for
six years, .were cleaned out of the elty
government today. It was the long-anticipated
8th of January, and the of
ficiate voted into office last November
assumed the positions to which a re
generated electorate 'had raised them.
Not one vestige of Schmitz or. Ruef in
fluence remains in the administration
which began today, for even the two of
ficials elected on the M'Carthy ticket have
abandoned the standard that flew from
the Jounty Jail, and the treasury and
county clerkship will be conducted with
out reference to the felons' cabal. Every
other office in San Francisco, including
a complete board of Supervisors,' is oc
cupied by men elected on the Democratic
and Good Government tickets. The ap
pointive offices were likewise filled by
officials of Mayor Taylor's choice, or men
selected by the commissions he named.
Thomas P. Woodward., who was city
engineer under Schmitz,. resigned at
Mayor Taylor's request, and his place
was taken by Marsden Manson, who was
a member of the Board of Works dur
ing the Phelan administration. Wil
liam P. Shaughnessy resigned as Super
intendent of Street-Sweeping, anl John P.
Rogerson was named by the Board of
Works to assume the duties. When the
Board of Education met, Thomas Boyle,
who has held a place therein . for -several
years, was selected president.
' The new Board of Supervisors organized
during the noon hour. Mayor Taylor, in
his address of welcome to the Board, de
voted considerable attention to the sub
ject of an auxiliary water system, dis
cussing It in detail, and recommending it
highly to the new Board as a- splendid
thing for the city. He also dwelt upon
street improvement and urged the rapid
rehabilitation of public" buildings. 'He
thought it was high time that the city
did its part in the wofk of rehabilitation,
and hoped that as. these structures would
be raised for generations to come that
their architectural beauty and adornment
should not be neglected for mere utility.
Mayor Taylor this' afternoon appointed
J. Harry- Zemansky to be Registrar of
Voters, to succeed" George P. Adams. For
several years, Mr.- Zemansky has been
chief deputy in the office of the registrar,
and he is therefore well acquainted with
the duties of the office.
RUEF TRANSFERRED TO JAIL
Despite Opposition From Both the
Prosecution and Defense.
SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 8. After be
ing held for 10 months in a private
prison, in the custody of an elisor ap--pointed
by the court, with private
guards, his own cook and his. own au
tomobile. In which he was allowed to
go out for an airing or attend to
business matters, Abe Ruef, former po
litical boss and the central 'figure in
the San Francisco bribery-graft inves
tigation and prosecution, at 6 o'clock
tonight was taken from his comfort-,
able quarters at Fillmore street and
Pacific avenue and placed in a cell at
Branch No. 2 of the County Jail at
Ingleside. Not far removed from him
are his former chieftain, cx-Mayor Eu
gene E. Schmitz, and Louie Glass, ex
general manager and vice-president of
the Pacific States Telephone & Tele
graph Company. . '
The transference of Ruef took place
today, when Sheriff Thomas J. O'Neill,
who was disqualified by Judge Ilunne.
went out of office, and Sheriff-elect
Lawrence J Dolan was Installed.
It was done despite the influence of
the prosecution and the desperate ef
forts of Ruef's friends to prevent It,
the District Attorney's office being ap
prehensive that contact and conferring
between Ruef and Schmitz might re
sult in placing obstacles in the way
of the prosecution.
Sheriff Dolan stated today that for
several days he would make no change
in the quarters of Schmitz and Glass.
Each one of these prisoners is occupy
ing a large and comfortable room in
the administration building of the
County Jail, and each eats at the table
with the officers and guaVds. Later,
Dolan Intimated, he probably would put
Schmitz and Glass in cells. '

greater interest will be sent out by .the
committee. . -

souvenirs ever devised in this part of the
country, and no design that is not abso
lutely original will be considered- The
Invitations will be engraved and printed
in the official colors of the Festival As
sociation, and each one is to be sigred
by President C. A. Whttemore and Sec
retary B.' I. Dasent.
Aside from the mere formal Invitation.,

ALL FOR GOOD OF THE BANK
WALSH TESTIFIES IN DEFENSE
" OF HIS DEALS.
Bought .Receivers' Certificates Be
cause They Were Good Securities
and Cheap, He Says.
CHICAGO. Jan. 8. John R. Walsh, in
bis first public explanation of the affairs
of the Chicago National Bank since its
closing by National. bank examiners.' took
the witnesststand today in the United
States District Court to defend himself
against charges of misapplying funds.
He admitted that he had possibly engi
neered' the loans. o'f millions of dollars to
the. railroads ,and other enterprises In
which he held large blocks of stock. He
also acknowledged that the "memoran
dum" system of notes used in the banks
was his. He denied, however, that he
ever had any thought of personal gain,
saying that the Interests of the bank and
Its allied institutions, the Equitable Trust
Company and the Home Savings Banks,
were his chief concern.
Walsh told of the founding by him In
1884 of the bank: As Its president, he
said he purchased in. 1897 and 1898 certain
receivers" certificates of the Centralia &
Chester Railroad at 95, Prior to the, pur
chase, he said, a careful Inspection of 'the
property was made' by himself. F. M.
Blount, then vice-president of the bank,
and others. The legal status of the road
was also investigated by H. F. Hatch,
attorney for the bank, the witness assert
ed. Efforts by the prosecutor to have
Walsh admit that in purchasing the re
ceivers' ' certificates, he had in mind the
ultimate control of the railroad for. the
benefit of holdings which he may have
had at that time were without avail.
' "I had nothing in my mind except that
I thought the certificates were good se
curities for the money and that they were
cheap." said Walsh. '
Walsh was on the stand four hours.
Every seat was filled When he took. the
stand. Hia replies were given in so low
a tone that they were scarcely audible to
the attorneys and he was admonished to
speak .louder several times by his own
counsel. With this exception, the wit
ness gave tittle Indication either of his 70
years or the strain of the long trial.

Greatest Day of All in Portland's Greatest
Sale of Muslin Underclothes
Do you i now what it means when a sale grows bigger every day,' bigger in every way?
More people, more money. It means that everybody who comes tells everybody else her
friends, and neighbors how good the values are, how low the prices.
It isn't what we say here in our store news about the Underwear that brings the crowds.
Not. at all. It's like the fame of a good play; the critics can't make it any more than they
can ruin a production. Those who came on the first night go away and they tell everybody
they know not to miss so and so's comedy; orelse they say "'twas poor, you'll be bored."
The goodness of our sale Underclothes and their superiority to that in other sales, and
the little prices we've put on them, have gotten into the very air and it's all gone out in
sound waves like a wireless message which has reached every part of the city. EVERY
