Evidently expfM-tinff adverse rulings from Judge Dooling, Ruef yesterday flayed his last card and applied to the Fupreme Court for a writ of prohibition and writ of mandamus, prohibiting Judge Pooling from continuing the trial and ordering him to transfer It to some other flfpartment of the Superior Court.

The original motion was adopted and Mr. llonnecker elected per manent chairman. Chairman Flays Tibbies. .Mr. llonnecker made an address of considerable length. In which he vig orously attacked the courts of the country in whose rulings he de clared many gross Injustices had been committed. He attacked tho Demo era tic party for the conduct of Presi dent Cleveland in the railroad strike of 1 S i and the Republican party for the sending of troops Into Idaho dur ing the miners strike. Following his address, the report of the committee on resolutions was read by Joseph A. Parker, of Kentucky, and on a motion to adopt T. H. Tibbies, of Ne braska, objected, saying the more im portant part of the planks adopted by the committee last night were omitted. Mr. Parker, in explanation, said that att a subsequent meeting of the commit tee, the plank on money had been mate rially moditlcd. Mr. Tibbie. In trying to gain the attention of the chairman. erame engaged In a heated colloquy with that individual. Mr. Tibbies insisted lie bad tho floor and asked the chair hat be be permitted to speak. "I cannot furnish yon with English words to express yourself," said the chair. "I rannnt furnish you with a set of drains to preside over this convention." Jiotly retorted Mr. Tibbies. After considerable wrangling. Mr, Tib bies went to the platform and read that part of the platform that he said had been omitted from the original draft. A motion to incorporate the resolution ad voca ted by Mr. Tibbies In the platform was made and was laid on the table by a, voto of to 3"7. Nebraska ns Beaten Finally. At the afternoon session the platform was .adopted and immediately afterward H call w::h made for nomina tion for President of the I'nited States.

The Watson men shouted, "No. no." at the top of their voices. Mr. Jones mounted the platform, but for a time was not given a chance to speak. H refused to yield, however, and Mr. Jlonnecker finally restored a semblance of order and Mr. Jones demanded that nominations be put off until July 16. Rev. Thomas Wadsworth, of Indiana, followed Mr. Jones in an Impassioned address, de claring against any adjournment or fusion with either the Democrats or Republicans. He waa followed by T. B. Tibbies, of Ne braska, who urged that the convention postpone nominations until after the Dem ocratic and Republican conventions. Then occurred the colloquy between Mr. Parker and Mr. Tibbies, after which the motion to proceed with nominations was carried. The bolt of Nebraska and Min nesota followed. No disturbance or comment marked their exit, except that Mr. Ferris asked that they not leave the convention. They declined to listen to him and went on their way. Alabama, on the roll call, yielded to New York, and Jay A.

His name was presented by Dr. J. VT. Clarke, of Washington, Ind. There were no other nominations and his nomination was made by acclamation. A committee was sent to notify Mr. Williams of the honor that had been accorded him and to escort him to the convention hall. Mr. Williams, upon entering the hall. ma greeted with Enthusiastic cheers. He returned his thanks to the convention in a brief speech. In which he promised to do all things possible for the success of the ticket and urged his hearers to do everything In their power to keep up the party organization. At the conclusion of Mr. Williams' ad dress the convention arjourned sine die. I PLATFORM OF THE POPULISTS Let Government Issue Money and Own Public lTtllitles. ST. LOUI3. April 3. The platform adopted today by the Populist National convention declares that the issuing of money Is a function of the Government alone that should not be delegated to any corporation or industry. The demand is made that money be Issued direct to the people without the intervention of banks, and be a full legal tender for- all debts, public and private. The working of the National banking law Is criticised and the demand made that the power to issue money be taken from the banks.- The Aldrlch bill Is denounced as a "method by which the Nation and the people can both be robbed. It has not In It an in telligent purpose that Is honest." The Eowler bill is also denounced. The plank on trusts demands that the Government own and control the rail roads and all public utilities which In their nature are monopolies. Ownership of the general telegraph and telephone lines and a parcels post are also asked. The taxation of monopoly privileges while they remain In private hands is another feature of this plank. Other planks submitted favored Initiative and referendum and the power to recall from office disloyal or Inefficient representa tives. The enactment of legislation looking to the Improvement of conditions for wage-earners; abolition of child labor and suppression of sweatshops; abolition of convict, as opposed to free labor; ex clusion from American shores of foreign pauper laborers; eight-hour work day and legislation in favor of safety ap pliances for workingmen; enactment of an employers liability act within consti tutional bounds; immediate adoption of precautionary measures to prevent a repetition, of recent mining disasters; work on public Improvements in times of depression for unemployed men; the passage of l law prohibiting courts from assuming Jurisdiction involving the con stitutionality of any law enacted by Congress and approved by the Presi dent; the maintaining of farmers or ganizations and extension of their power and influence1. AVI LL V I N BACK AVA VDEHERS Once a Populist, Always a Populist. Is Watson's Opinion. JACKSONVILLE, Fla,. April 3. Thomas R. Watson, who was today nominated as the Populist candidate for the Presi dency, when seen by an Associated Press representative here-today, refused to say whether he would accept the nomination. Mr. Watson sakl It would be Improper for him to say anything until officially notified of his nomination. Mr. Watson said he realised that there has been a great falling away from the Populist party In recent years, "but," said he, "I believe every man who has been a member of the Populist party once, still is a Populist at heart and. If the proper efforts are made, they will return to the party and give its candidates their support." CORDIAL TOWARD DR. HILL German Ambassador to France Meets Diplomatist at Reception. PARIS. April 3. Dr. and Mrs. David Jayne H ill met Prince Radolin, German Ambassador to France, and the Princess Radolin at the reception given by Am bassador White yesterday afternoon. Both the Prince and the Princess mani fested particular cordiality toward Dr. Hill, the Prince assuring him that the reception accorded him as American Am bassador in Berlin would be all the warmer on account of the unfortunate Incident of his acceptability at the Ger man court. Dr. and Mrs. Hill will return to The Hague on Monday. The impression here is that the Hill incident will help the movement in Congress for the purchase of befitting residences for the American Ambassadors abroad. Regret is expressed In Paris over the report from Berlin that the Japanese Government has stolen a march on Wash ington by arranging to purchase the pres ent residence of Ambassador Tower, in Berlin, it being understood that Wash ington Jnad made inquiries and intended to buy this property if Congress granted the authority. Should the Bacon amendment, appropri ating $-tMY for an American Kmbassy 1n Paris, pass, it is considered likely that the Government will purchase the prop erty now occupied by Ambassador White.

SAILORS AGAINST SEALS Garrett AVlll Pitch First Game for Portland and Oscar Jones for Ri val Team Oakland to Meet I.os Angeles Nine. SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., April 3. (Special.) Portland and Sun Francisco are now riaily for the opening of the 3908 , baseball" season at Recreation Park, In this rlty. tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. The new park, on which $.1000 was expended to. construct a prass diamond. Is in the best kind of condition, and the prospects are strong for a banner crowd. Festivities will start with an auto mobile parade at 12:30 o'clock. Tho hand will be stationed at the Park after the parade. The customary warm-up of the teams will follow and then will come the game, umpired by Jack O'Connell. Sheriff Larry Dolan will pitch the first ball. . McCredie has made up his mind to work Garrett the first g-ame and send In Groom and Klnsella for the two Sunday affairs. Oscar Jones will go on the firing: line for the seals tomor row and Willis and Henely will work Sunday. The line-up for tomorrow's game: Portland. Fan Pranclnco. HUdfbrand, If. Tfper, cf.

"Play Pall." This cry In Pan Francisco, when Manager McCredte's pennant chasers will meet the Seals, and in Los An geles, where the Oaklandcrs are. will formally open the Pacific Coast League baseball season this afternoon Before the game. In each of the citlos, there will he the usua.1 street parade, band ptaylng and the tossing of the ball over the plate by some well-known fan. The Oregonian has printed the Port land ilne-up so often during the train ing weeks that every fan knows the batting order by heart. For weeks past, they have been following the news of how the players have shown up during practice, so beginning with this afternoon both the faithful fan and the bug will get a chance to judge for himself whether McCredie has sur rounded himself with ballplayers or ping-pong players. On paper the team looks good. In the practice games they have played they looked better, but the real test of what kind of material Manager Mac has in his new recruits will be com pleted by the end of the opening series against San Francisco. Oscar Jones will be the curve mixer for the Seals, and this pitcher, when he is right, is hard to beat. Such men as Casey, McCredie. Johnson. Raftery and Bassey have batted against him, so that they will be. able to put the strangers on the team wise to what he has. Jones also knows the weaknesses of the old faces on the team, so the break is about even. When it comes to Danzig, Cooney or any others of the recruits. It will be a question which Is the best guesser. Klnsella. when he is right, has always had something on the Seals. Judging by his game of Thursday, the big fel low is about ready. Groom sure Is ready, and so Is Garrett, so there Is no best bet when It comes to the pitching staff. McCredie will make no mistake In sending Garrett to the firing line. The Texas graduate has everything and the best of all, a good .head. It cost Man ager Mac $1000 to get him, and from his record he should be worth the pur chase price. PORTLAND ACADEMY WINNER Beats Hill Military, 15 to 8, at the A'anglm-Street Grounds. The Portland Academy baseball play ers had the better of the argument with the 11111 Military Academy In their opening contest- In the Interscholastic League, at the Vaughn-street grounds yesterday afternoon. The final score was 16 to 8 in favor of the Portland Academy. Owing to the rough condition of the ball grounds, good fielding was practically imposslble and the cadets suffered most on that account. In addition, the Port land Academy lads got busy with Mays' offerings early In the game and batted him out of the box in the fourth Inning. Myers, the pitcher for the victorious club, was invincible in all but three of the nine innings, hut as he hsd the game safely stowed away, he could afford to case up toward the end.

Tetrazzini has made one of the greatest suc cesses in operatic history in this country, and has met with a reception almost unparalleled. The great Man hattan Opera-House in New York has been crowded every time the famous soprano has appeared, and she has been greeted with a series of the most tremendous ovations. It is not the habit of blase New York audi ences to go wild over a singer, but the Tetrazzini per formances have been the scenes of some of the most remarkable outbursts of enthusiasm ever beheld in America. It is perhaps enough to say here that this marvelous voice has been recorded in all its beauty and power on nine superb Victor records, and the list contains all the numbers with which Mme. Tetrazzini has made her greatest triumphs. Come in and hear these marvelous records. Onr store will be open tonight. Sherman Mlay & Co.

At a meeting last night of the mwma ft-, Double breasted 17. Russian and for 3 U10 year Mazamas It was decided this Summer to climb Mount St. Helens. Secretary Giltner of the Chamber of Commerce, who has made seven trips to the sum mit of the mountain, appeared before the meeting- and presented his opinion as to the best route to be followed in making the ascent. The starting point is at Woodland. Wash., and from there to the foot of the mountain along' the banks of the Lewis River. The time consumed in climbing' the mountain from the timber line Is about six hours. From figures given by intrumcnts taken by Mr. Giltner on these various trips the heisrht of the mountain is given as 12,000 feet. Tiiis would give it a greater height than Mount Hood, but Mount Hood, Mr. Giltner believes, will be found to be several hundred feet higher than the figures given for St. Helens. .
