ABOUT GERMAN AGREEMENT
Message Krom President Calls 1'orth
Charge of Exceeding Powers.
Accused of Surpassing Kaiser
' in Autocratic Action.
"WASHINGTON", Jan. 22. President
Roosevelt today transmitted to the Sen
ate and House copies of the tariff regu
lations negotiated some time ago between
the United States and Germany, to
gether with a proposed amendment to
the customs administrative act, putting
the same in force as a statute. In the
Senate the message aroused lively dis
cusslnn in executive session when taken
up. The remarks were not addressed to
the message so much as to the policy of
considering it 1n executive session, as
Roll as the policy of the President in
connection with the agreement.
His course, not only in negotiating that
Instrument, but in proclaiming it to the
world as he did last July, was sharply
criticised. It was declared tiiat the
agreement makes changes which are
equivalent to legislation and it -was
pointed out that all legislation affecting
the tariff must, under the constitution,
originate in the House of Representa
tives. Attention was called to the third
section of the McKinley law as possibly
permitting the President's course, but
his critics contended that his action in
this case had pone far beyond the limits
permitted by that section.
More Autocratic Than Kaiser.
Stress was laid on the fact that the
President had not only negotiated the
treaty, but that lie had given it out as
a complete performance without refer
ring it to the Senate for action. This
the Senators seemed to consider espe
cially reprehensible and far beyond the
authority of the chief executive. It was
pointed out that the German Kaiser had
not only referred the agreement to the
Reichstag for its action, but that he
liad even consulted both the local and
National boards of trade. Hence, the
President was charged with being even
more autocratic than the head of the
German empire.
It was alsc declared that under the
system of valuations provided for by
the treaty great Injustice would be done
to the United States.
Open Session Wins.
Heyburn made' strenuous objection
when the question was raised that the
message was a subject for consideration
In open Senate instead of behind closed
doors. The Idaho Senator maintained
that an open Senate debate would only
plunge . the Senate intq an almost end
less tariff discussion. McLaurln, Teller
and others called for an open session
and their plea finally won, but not before
Gallinger and one or two others had de
livered their sentiments concerning the
action of an executive in calling for
legislation whenever the spirit moved
him.
It was finally decided to refer the mes
sage to the committee on finance. If the
bill is to be forthcoming, it will be from
that committee.
VI Lli BE SAFE FROM INVASION
Canal When Completed ' Will Be
Easily Guarded.
"WASHINGTON", Jan. 22. At the hear
ings of the Senate committee on inter
ocennic canals today. Colonel Goethals
gave assurance that the Panama Canal
when completed, would be reasonably
safe from military invasion and said
that the chances of the crippling of the
canal by spies armed with dynamite will
be very small, providing armed guards
are maintained at the Miratiores and
Gatun locks. The locks themselves.
Colonel Goethals explained, are located
sufficiently, far from either coast to ren
der them safe from naval attacks.
Colonel Goethals said that average
ships- probably would be able to pass
through the canal in less than eight
hours.
"The entire United States fleet," he
said, "can bo accommodated at one time
in Gatun Lake, when completed."
Ho said he had little apprehension
about earthquakes.
In discussing the financial needs of the
Canal Commission during the next fiscal
year. Colonel Goethals said that it was
necessary to have t;!2.403,Tt3, an increase
of mora than JD.WO.000 over the appro
priation of last year. The enlargement is
mainly due to increase of work.

ANSWERS CRITICS OF SHIPS
Capps Says No Change in Naval
Construction Proposed.
"WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. Rear-Adml-ra!
Capps, chief of the Bureau of Con
struction, United States Navy, yester
day spent some time with the house
committee on naval affairs in defend
ing, denying and controverting some of
the various charges brought by news
paper and magazine writers against
Navy methods of battleship construc
tion. The gist of Admiral Capps" state
ments was that the methods of con
struction employed in the navy are
correct in principle and highly suc
cessful in results.
The two main subjects considered
were armor belt and freeboard.
Charges that the six to six and one-half-foot
armor belt width in use in its
placement Is insufficient to protect the
vital parts of a battleship from high
explosives were taken up in detail and
denied in all points by Admiral CapQS,
who said the Bureau of Construction
contemplates no changes In this regard,
either as a result of published criti
cisf or professionel experience. Coin
cidently he remarked that' the perfec
tion of armor hardening processes in
the last 12 years has enabled the reduc
tion of armor belts from the 19 inches
used on the Indiana to the ten inches
of the present-day construction.
Scliwerln's Reply to Bristow.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 22. Com
menting on the report of J. L. Bristow
on traffic conditions at Panama, R. P.
Schwerin, vice-president of the Pacific
Mail Stean.si.-p Company, said yester
day that the Pacific Mail holds itself
in no way responsible for the falling
off in traffic over the Panama Railroad
and declared that if the Government
builds a line of its own to run be
tween this port and Panama it may
lose money on its operation. Traffic
is being diverted from Panama to
Tehuantepec. he says, because of the
aid given to the Hawaiian-American
Line by the Mexican Government,
which exacted no percentage or other
charge. He added: "We cannot com
pete with the more cheaply operated
and more favored lines which run to
the Mex.can port."

ONE- BOATLOAD IS MISSING
English Steamers Collide and Dozen
Passengers May Be Lost: '
&
ROTTERDAM, Jan. 22. The steamer
Amsterdam, belonging to the Great East
ern Railway Company, and the British
steamer Axminster, from New York, De
cember 20, for Rotterdam, collided last
night near Nieuwe Waterweg. The Am
sterdam was badly damaged, and pro
ceeded to Massluts, where she was
beached.
The Amsterdam was coming from Har
wich and had 56 passengers on board.
A dense fog prevailed, and the two
steamers came together before either had
time to sheer off. The Amsterdam had
a great hole stove in her bow and the
water began coming in so fast that the
capaln lowered his boats and transferred
her passengers to the Axminster. The
stem of the Axminster was badly dam
aged. There Is much anxiety over the fact
that one of the Amsterdam's boats still
Is unaccounted for. It is reported to
contain a dozen or a score of passen
ger and members of the crew, several
women being included. No list of pas
sengers on the Amsterdam is available.
Therefore, it Is impossible to say how
many people are missing. It is con
fidently believed by the Great Eastern
officials that the boat has been picked
up by a passing vessel. The fog con
tinues so thick that all efforts of search
ing parties thus far have proved un
availing. According to the latest reports, the
missing boat was well provisioned for
several days. It carried oars, sails and
compass.
z The transfer of passengers from the
Amsterdam was carried out in an orderly
manner, the passengers being carefully
distributed, the women- first with a com
plement of the crew for each boat.

Woman Shoots in Crowded
Cafe Man Who Had Turned
From Her.
THEN TAKES HER OWN LIFE
Mrs. Mary Roberts Avenges Cold
ness of Frank Brady," Whom She
Had Befriended When He
' Was Less Prosperous.
NEW YORK. Jan. 22. Sweeping
through the crowded restaurant, which
takes up the eighth floor of Macey's
great department store, and into the
men's cafe, a tall, stylishly-dressed
woman today bent for a moment over
the ehoulders of a diner, whispered
something in his ear, then drawing a
revolver from her muff, emptied the
contents of the five chambers into his
body. As her victim, Frank Brady, a
newspaper advertising solicitor, slipped
to the floor, the woman flung the
weapon to the floor, and taking a sec
ond revolver from her muff, shot her
self first in the head, then in the breast.
She died half an hour later.
A note in her purse revealed her- to
be Mrs. Mary Roberts, a clerk and
manicurist, widow of a police officer,
and stepmother of a 6-year-old son,
Raymond. Brady was 30 years old, and
the sole support of e helpless and aged
mother, for whom he had made a home.
Carries Out Dire Threat.
The shooting was the culmination of
a series of violent quarrels, and, ac
cording to the woman's intimates, in
fulfillment of a threat to murder Brady
in a public place, before the world, un
less he renewed the attentions she as
serted she received from him when he
was' less prosperous, andshe in a posi
tion to befriend him.
The police had little difficulty In
tracing the tragic story: The suicide,
who was about 30 years old, was Mary
McLean when she married John Rob
erts. When the latter died, a year ago
she assumed the name of Clark, and
supported herself and child, first as
wardrobe woman at an uptown theater,
then as a manicurist. She was a pre
possessing woman, and had marked
business ability.
Brady Avoided Her. v
"While Mrs. Clark was in "prosperous
circumstances and before the death of
her husband, Brady had lodgings at
her home, and she declared she hepled
him. A few months ago he left her
home and made a home for his mother,
whom he brought here from New Jer
sey. Recently Mrs. Clark thought that
Brady was avoiding her, and when he
called at her home occasionally they
quarreled. A few days ago Mrs. Clark
called upon her attorney and told him
that something serious was going to
happen.
Today Mrs. Clark went to her bank,
made a cash deposit, wrote a note iden
tifying herself, and addressed It to her
attorney, and purchasing three revolv
ers, she visited the store where she
knew Brady usually lunched. Stepping
into the elevator, she asked the waiter
who approached her if he had seen
Brady, then stepped intb the smoking
room just outside the main hall.
The dlning-hall was filled with wom
en lunching after the morning shop
ping, and amid the buzz of conversation
Mrs. Clark entered and her agitated
manner attracted little attention, only
one waitress noticing her approach the
men's cafe, asked if she was seeking
some one. She brushed the girl aside
and the shooting took place a few sec
onds later.
HENDRICKS AGAINST HALL
(Continued from First Page.)
Steiwer, but I told him that I thought
it would be better for him to speak with
Steiwer personally."
Hendricks followed his astounding
statements by saying that he never
talked with Hall on the subject again and
that he had never discussed the matter
with Mays, Hall's deputy, although he
said that he had had other business with
Mays in an official way, the witness at
the time being United States Commis
sioner. Hendricks was asked by Heney
as to the relations between Steiwer and
Joseph Simon, but an objection by the
defense was sustained before he could
ftDswer
Letters from Mays to Hendricks, writ
ten prior to February 15, were offered by
Heney against both defendants. After
an extended discussion as to the rele
vancy of the letters as to both Hall and
Mays, Judge Hunt held that tney coma
be introduced only as against Mays.
Heney's object In Introducing the let
ters against both defendants was for the
purpose of proving the intimacy of the
friendly relations existing not only be
tween Hall and Mays, but Detween Dotn
Hall and Mays and Hendricks. Judge
Webster, attorney for Hall, seriously ob
jected to the introduction of the letters
against his client, for the reason that
they were written more than three years
prior to tne date tne indictment aiiegea
the conspiracy had been formed, and for
the further reason that any declarations
made between Mays and Hendricks, al
though tney were co-conspirators wun
Han, could not relate to Hall particu
larly when they had been made prior to
the date of the inception of the alleged
conspiracy.
Judge Hunt was of the opinion that the
letters might be introduced if they showed
a relation of Intimacy between the co-conspirators,
even if the letters antedated
the period to which the statute of limita
tions might apply. But the court ruled
that tne letters could be orrered only
against Mays, the ngnt being reserved
to extend Its scope to Include Hall if the
contentions of Heney were supported by
the authorities.
Mays "Writes Hendricks.
Only one of the letters was of particu
lar significance. It Teiated to a deposi
tion Hendricks had forwarded to Mays In
some minor case for approval. Other
than a aiscussion of the deposition tne
letters from Mays to Hendricks contained
the following:
"Thank you very much for your good
wishes and offers of assistance. I think
that things look favorable at this time
for Mr. Hall and the rest of us to hold
on. Should, however, occasion demand,
we should be very glad to avail ourselves
of your kind offer.
Trusting that you will call upon me
This woman says that sick
women should not fail to try
Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound as she did.
Mrs. A. Gregory, of 2355 Lawrence
St., Denver, CoL, writes to Mrs.
Pinkhani :
" I was practically an invalid for six
years, on account of female troubles.
I underwent an operation by the
doctor's advice, but in a few months I
was worse than before. A friend ad
vised Lydia E. Pinkham's -Vegetable
Compound and it restored me to perfect
health, such as I have not enjoyed in
many years. Any woman suffering' as
I , did with backache, bearing-down
pains, and periodic pains.should not fail
to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

"Assistant U. S. Attorney."
Hendricks was afterwards asked what
promises of assistance he had made
either to Hall or Mays, but he could not
remember. Tho witness then identified
the Putnam map as the one Hall naa
shown him when he called at Hall's of
fice in May. 1900. He further told of the
visit of Special Agent Loomls to Wheeler
County in June, liKE, and tho Interest
Loomis took in having as many of the
settlers who had filed on homesteads for
the Butte Creek Company to be on their
lands when he should make his Investi
gation, in order that his report to the
Department might be as favorable to the
claimants as possible. Heney was ex
amining Hendricks on the visit of Loomis
to the unlawfully fenced premises when
court adjourned for the day.
Hall's Letter to Attorney-General.
While concluding the examination of
Special Agent Edward W. Dixon yester
day, Heney introduced the letter Hall
wrote to the United States Attorney
General on March 30. 1903, in which Hall
reported that he had received complaints
of numerous unlawful fences in Crook,
Grant, Klamath, Lake and Harney Coun
ties; that he had tried to secure the
services of various special agents to
make the investigations, and that he
wanted the Department to assign a good,
"live"man who could spend six weeks
investigating the conditions complained
of.
The reply to this letter, written by M.
D. Purdy, acting Attorney-General, was
also submitted by the Government. This
letter referred only to the five counties
that were named In Hall's letter of re
quest. The purpose of Introducing this
correspondence, explained Heney, was
to show that Hall in his letter to the
Attorney-General did not mention the
counties of Wheeler and Gilliam, In
which the Butte Creek Company was
operating unlawfully, although five other
Eastern Oregon counties were specific
ally named. With the other correspon
dence already introduced, and detailing
the correspondence between Putnam and
the Secretary of the Interior, the Gov
ernment will contend that the assign
ment of Special Agent Dixon to the
Wheeler County cases was brought about
directly through this correspondence of
E. A. Putnam and other settlers with the
Interior Department, and entirely inde
pendent of any effort on the part of
Hall.
Until yesterday afternoon, the t-ti-mony
offered by the Government served
conclusively to establish the conspiracy
charge against the officers of the Butte
Creek Company, and only Indirectly con
nected Hall and Mays with the alleged
crime. Were the officers of the com
pany alone on trial, the jury would be
able to return a verdict of guilty with
out leaving the box, so completely was
the charge proved against them. Heney
will next proceed with the testimony of
Hendricks and Zachary, and probably
Steiwer. to complete the case against
Hall and Mays by proving their alleged
Improper relations .with the officers of
the Butte Creek Company. In order to
complete its proof against the defend
ants on trial, It Is altogether
probable that the Government Is
relying principally on the testi
mony of this trio of witnesses. That
evidence, the general Impression is, could
not be procured without granting assur
ance of immunity to the three Indicted
defendants, and that is believed to
have been done.
Zacliary Pleads Guilty.
Clarence B. Zachary, who yesterday
entered a plea of guilty to the con
spiracy charge, was foreman of the
Butte Creek Company. He was a prom
inent figure in superintending the dif
ferent schemes that were hatched by his
associates.
When court convened yesterday, Heney
announced that Hamilton H. Hendricks,
ex-United States Commissioner, was in
the courtroom and desired to plead to the
indictment. Hendricks promptly entersd
a plea of guilty, having been named as
one of the defendants in the conspiracy
indictment on which Hall and Mays' are
being tried. Judge Hunt inquired if
Heney had subpenaed Hendricks as a
witness and Heney replied that he had
not but that Hendricks would remain at
his, Heney's, request. Zachary pleaded
guilty at the opening of court in the'
afternoon.
Other witnesses examined for the Gov
ernment during the day, were: Fred W.
Ball, -who served as guide to Special
Agent Dixon when he inspected the ille
gal inclosures; John H. Alexander, an
other Special Agent, who examined the
unlawful fences In January, 1906, and
found them practically intact; J. L.
Combs, C. Henry Neal, James Johnson
and J. C. Vantis, who assisted to build
the fences by which the Butte Creek
Company inclosed Government land; W.
S. Thompson. Rufus King and C. T.
Scroggin. whose cattle were driven out of
the Butte Creek Company's inclosure by
C B. Zachary, the company's foreman.
Mr. Heney expects to complete the
Government's case probably tomorrow
afternoon and not later than Saturday.
Hendricka will be on the stand during
the morning session, and possibly a

part of the afternoon today, and will
be followed by Clarence B. Zachary.
Mr. Heney last night would not dis
cuss the probability that W. W. Steiwer
would be called as a witness for the
Government, neither would he admit
that Steiwer will follow the lead of his
associates, Hendricks and Zachary, of
the Butte Creek Company, and plead
guilty. But there is every Indication
that Steiwer will take the immunity
bath and testify for the prosecution
either today or tomorrow. That Steiwer
will be a witness against Hall and
Mays, even should he not confess, Is
considered highly probable, from the
fact that although he is still In the
city, he has not frequented the court
room since Judge Hunt announced his
ruling instructing all witnesses not to
attend any of the sessions until after
they had testified.

SHAMEFUL SACRIFICE
CANNOT BE AVOIDED
Factory Says Few Remaining Pianos
Must Be Sold Without
' Further Delay.
There are only a few more of the
high-graoe instruments left which
were embraced In the two-car ship
ment made to our Portland repre
sentative who encountered financial
troubles and could not take them, and
which we have been disposing of at
forced sale at the office of the City
Transfer & Storage Company, at 103
Front street, rather than ship them
back to the factory at additional
freight expenses.
These instruments are so well
known here in Portland that, you
doubtless have friends among - your
own acquaintances who own one of
them. They are strictly high-grade,
an old-established make, and have
been always sold by our regular rep
resentatives at $45J, J500 and $550, but
the prices which we are quoting now
to dispose of them in short order to
avoid storage charges, insurance, etc.,
are so radically reduced, and so far
below the prices that you would be
obliged to pay at any regular retail
establishment for equal quality, that
vou will not need to be urged to buy,
I am sure, -when you look them over.
See them at once. You'll find them
splendid instruments- they contain
many Datented, exclusive features that
are lacking in other high-grade
pianos. They represent gome of the
best examples of high-class piano
building ever turned out fom my
factory. You'll like their tone, and
their finish, and their careful con
struction. And you'll recognize in
them a tremendous bargain. But you
must make a point to come at once.
There are only a few more on hand.
