lnxton, March 2. Senator Fulton today
notified the Oregon Congressmen that
there would be a meeting of the delega
tion at his rooms tomorrow evening to
elect and recommend another man for
District Attorney. Senator Bourne could
rot be found, but will be notified in time
to be present. Since the announcement
was made that T. J. Cleeton would not
be appointed, neither Mr. Fulton. Mr.
Hawley nor Mr. Ellis has received a
single application for this appointment.
It appears as though good men do not
care to risk their reputation In going after
thl doubtful honor.
The Attorney-General said today that he
had authorized District Attorney Bristol
to appoint two assistant district attorneys
for temporary service. Judge Wolverton
having certified that there is immediate
need for their assistance in clearing up
accumulated matters. Both assistants will
be retired when the affairs of the office
are straightened out.
Mr. Bristol's application for authority
to appoint two assistants was contained
In a "24-word lelegrrfm to the Attorney
General, which led the Department to
inquire what manner of man is about to
retire. There Is a suspicion that Mr.
Bristol, piqued at hjs inability to collect
old expense accounts, took this means to
make the Government spend its money.
WILL GET DOWN TO BUSINESS
Bristol to Clean Up Docket and May
.Try Land Cases.
United States Attorney Bristol yester
day received instructions from Washing
ton Immediately to proceed with the work
of the Federal Court In this state. The
orders came direct from United States
Attorney-General Bonaparte and will be
compiled with. In the Vnlted States
Court this morning Mr. Bristol will aalc
Judge Wolverton to call a grand Jury to
gether at once and to assemble a petit
jury as soon as indictments can be re
ported by the former. This means 'that
the Federal Court in Portland will again
be in full operation in about two weeks.
Accompanying the orcter to resume
activities in the Government's prosecut
ing branch here were Instructions author
izing Mr. Bristol to appoint two assistant
United States Attorneys." This morning
Mr. Bristol will also announce the ap
pointment of his assistants. While ad
mitting last night that he had made his
selections. Mr. Bristol would not give
out the names for the reason that the
men he wanted had private business in
terests to consult and would be Unable to
decide on accepting the proffered posi
tion until this morning. It is surmised
that Walter H. Evans will be one of the
appointees.
It will he the Intention of Mr. Bristol
first to clear up the large number of cases
that have accumulated on the Federal
docket. There are not less than a score
of criminal cases awaiting Investigation
by a grand Jury and many of the accused
are incarcerated In the Multnomah
County Jail In default of required bonds.
Among the first cases that will be taken
before the grand Jury will be that in
which R. H. Wells, S. N. Saylor and
Frank Cavlness. who had their prelim
inary examination yesterday before Unit
ed States Commissioner Slatten, are
charged' with using the mails for fraudu
lent purposes.
It la considered more than probable
that Mr. Bristol will be instructed to pro
ceed with the trial of the 33 pending land
fraud cases when he has disposed of the
minor criminal and civil business In his
court. This Is regarded as more than
certain since Tracy C. Becker, special
assistant to the United States Attorney,
who is now in California, has announced
that his work in California will not per
mit htm to return to Oregon In time to
take charge, of these cases, as had been
arranged, on April 13 next, when they are
scheduled to be taken up. This announce
ment from Mr. Becker la considered es
pecially significant, coming as it does
. simultaneously wtth the news from the
Attorney-General that Mr. Bristol is
actively to assume the duties of his of
fice. Mr. Bristol said last night that he had
not been adivised officially aa to the pend
ing land-fraud cases and his relation to
them. His instructions from Washing
ton are understood to direct a disposition
of all pending cases aside from those that
have been delayed because of the ab
sence of Francis J. Heney. But he did
intimate that, if it was the intention
of the Department of Justice that he
should prosecute these cases and he was
ordered to do so. he would not hesitate
to assume the responsibility.
Further significance attaches to the
action of the Attorney-General on the
very eve of the meeting of the Oregon
delegation to consider recommending an
other randidate permanently to succeed
Mr. Bristol. It is taken unmistakably to
indicate that the problem of selecting
Mr. Bristol's successor Is no nearer solved
tlian It was before Congress met and
that an umlerstanding probably has been
reached by which the Incumbent of the
office Is to be retained indefinitely. Other
wise. It Is argued. If it were to be a
matter of only a week or two before the
delegation should select a candidate
favorable to the President, the Attorney
General would not be apt to direct Mr.
Bristol to assume undisputed possession
of the office and appoint two assistants.
It Is believe by a great many that Mr.
Bristol, by keeping Quiet and holding his
own counsel, coupled with the inability
of the delegation to agree on his suc
cessor, has prevailed against a determined
effort to opst him. Some even consider
that the same conditions may keep Mr.
Bristol in the office for some time.
Pecide on District Attorneyship.
WASHINGTON. D. C. March 2,-The
Oregon delegation has arranged to hold
a meeting tomorrow evening to take ac
tion in the District Attorneyship matter.
None of the members will indicate his
preference among the many candidates
for the place or predict the outcome of
the meeting.

DRIFT ACROSS POLAR . SEA
AMUNDSEN TELLS OF HIS J?LANS
FOB ARCTIC VOYAGE..
Not Going to Find North Pole, but
for Scientific Study Follow
Drift of Ice.
SALT LAKE CITY, March 2. Captain
Roald Amundsen, the discoverer of the
Northwest passage, expects to spend the
next five years in drifting from the Pa
cific to the Atlantic through the Polar
channel. In an Interview with the Tele
gram today he said:
"I will have a strong little vessel but
little larger than the GJoa, in which I
made the passage. I expect to have most
of my old crew with me. Mine will be a
purely scientific expedition and the search
for the North Pole will not be its object.
The discovery of the North Pole would
be of absolutely no importance or use to
the world.
"I am going to study the ocean cur
rents of the great unexplored waste north
of Bering Straits, to measure the speed
and movements of 4he ice-drift pack, take
deep-sea soundings and study meteoro
logical conditions. I expect that the drift
of the ice will take us over the North
Pole or in reaching distance of it. From
my observations made on the former
voyage, I think it will .take about five
years to drift from the Pacific to the
Atlantic."
REFUSES TO FREE WALKER
Connecticut Absconder Will Prob

SAN DIEGO. JIarch 2. Judge Cardena,
of the Federal Court of Lower California,
has denied the motions of F. P. Ramirez,
attorney for William F. Walker, the ab
sconder of New Britain, Conn., who
sought release from the Ensenada Jail be
cause the necessary extradition papers
had not arrived In Ensenada inside of the
40 days designated in the extradition treaty
between this country and Mexico.
Walker was remanded to the custody of
his jailer to await a review of the case
by the Minister of Foreign Affairs at the
City of Mexico. A last resort in a peti
tion for a writ of "amparo" is possible
after this decision and that petition is ap
pealable, so that Walker is likely to re
main in Jail for some months yet-

INFLUX FROM INDIA
Emigration Agents Turn Atten
tion From Japan,
OLD FIELD MOT PROFITABLE
Nippon Authorities Themselves Op
posed to Being Represented by
, Inferior Class of Coolies and
Will Enforce Restrictions.
TOKIO, March 2. Information reach
ing Tokio in a roundabout way from India
Indicates that the steamship and emigra
tion companies are now turning their
attention to India, emigration from Japan
having been cut off by Japan's voluntary
action. It is stated that a very large
number of laborers from India are taking
passage from Hongkong to Vancouver.
A .first installment of these Is said to
be going by the steamship Monteagle.
So far as the Japanese authorities are
concerned, every day there is additional
evidence of the determined attitude of
the government. Emigration to Hawaii,
Canada, Mexico and America actually
stopped pending the final conclusion of
the negotiations with the United States
and only certain classes will be allowed
entrance to American ports.
The delicate question f Japanese pres
tige has been comfortably settled by the
reiteration from headquarters and from
leading men who have influence in Japan
that injury to the prestige of the country
comes in much greater degree from per
mitting the emigration of an undesirable
class of coolies who misrepresent the na
tion abroad, than from any emigration or
Immigration restrictions placed by Amer
ica or Japan Itself.
NOT IN PORTUGUESE WATERS
Exact rosltlon of Vessel Sustains
Claim or China.
VICTORIA. B. C, March 2. An in
terview published in the Hongkong
Telegraph, received in today's mail,
witn A. J. Bast, a Portuguese attor
ney representing the consignees of the
firearms on board the seized Japanese
steamer Tatsu Maru, is interesting
with regard to the statement made in
yesterday's Pekin dispatch that the
steamer was seized in Portuguese
waters. The Pekin dispatch says the
Portuguese minister supported the
contention of the Japanese minister
that the vessel was seized In Portu
guese waters. Mr. Bast said:
"Following the seizure of the steam
er off Point Cabrltta report was made
to the harbormaster at Macao, who
deputized his assistant. Second Lieu
tenant Garclas Venture, to ascertain
the' exact- position of the Tatsu Maru.
On the following day Lieutenant Ven
ture, with a chart and accompanied by
representatives of Kwong Vo. steamed
to the vessel at Point Cabritta. True
enough, he found that the steamer was
beyond Macao waters.

Exempt Unions From Sherman Law.
CHICAGO, March 2. An amendment to
the Sherman anti-trust law exempting la
bor unions and agricultural associations
from being held liable for damages as a
result of strikes, boycotts and the "un
fair list" was demanded yesterday by ohe
Chicago Federation. The action was
based on the recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court in the case of the
United Hatters of North America and D.
L. Lowe, a hat manufacturer of Danbury.
Conn., In which it was held the Hatters'
Union had violated interstate commerce
laws by declaring a boycott against the
product of the Lowe factory.
A number of delegates urged Independ
ent political action by labor as the only
remedy through which "workingmen can
gain their rights."
The question was referred to the execu
tive board with Instructions to obtain
from ever local union affiliated with the
federation suggestions as to ways and
means of obtaining the desired amend
ment to the Sherman anti-trust law.

ACCORDING TO STRAW VOTE
Canraes Gives Secretary More Sup
port Than Fairbanks in Indiana;

CHICAGO, March 2. (Special.) Secre
tary Taft Is the '.'favorite son" of four
big "favorite-son" states, according to a
straw vote being taken by the Chicago
Weekly Inter-Ocean, a newspaper which
has not been supporting the Secretary of

Taft has more votes In Indiana than
Fairbanks: more in Wisconsin than
La Follette; more In Illinois than Cannon:
over 15 limes .more in Iowa than Leslie

state.
Taft, with a total of 3220 votes in
Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan. Iowa. Illi

the 12 states reported, has a strong ma
jority over the combined strength of Can

The Taft support in all states except
the favorite-son states, can better be com
pared with the nearest rival by a process
of division, than by mere subtraction. In
Nebraska, Taft has more than four times
as many ' as Cannon, , and five times as
many as La Follette. his nearest rivals.
In South Dakota, he has over 13 times as
many as La Follette; in Missouri, more
than six -times as many as Cannon; in
Kansas, nearly seven times as many as
Hughes: in Oklahoma, nearly six times
as many as Cannon; in Minnesota, where

the strength of "Uncle Joe"; in Iowa,
Taft scored over four times as often as
Cannon, and nearly seven times as many
as La Follette, who ranks third.

COAL COMBINE TO BE TRIED
Indictment -Against Harriman Lines

SALT LAKE CITT, March 2. The most
interesting result of the Investigation
made by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in 1905 of an alleged combination
to control the marketing of coal Was the
indictment by a Federal grand jury of
the Union Pacific Coal Company, the
Oregon Short Line Railroad Company and
others for conspiracy. The jury , found
that the defendants had refused to de
liver coal to D. J. Sharp, a Salt Lake
dealer, presumably because Mr.' Sharp
had made a 'cut of 50 cents In the retail
price. The defendants demurred on two
counts In the Indictment an5 the demurrer
was sustained today by Judge Marshall.
It was contended that the count was not
