TIIE MORXIXG OREGONTAX. THURSDAY, MAY 21, 190S. FAILS TO AGREE Nil DNS House Republican Talks Hours to Purpose. Caucus No LJTTLFIELD STANDS FIRM Small Prospect of Action This Ses sion, hut Caucus Will Meet Again.' Abuse of Powers . hy Courts Is Denied. W ASHINGTON". May 20. The Republi can members of the House met in con ference tonight to determine what should bs the altitude of the majority toward the enactment at thlit session of legisla tion modifying the power of the Federal courts to issue Injunctions. The con ference failed to reach an agreement end at 31 o'clock adjuurned until to morrow night. It Ik apparently a foregone conclusion that, if the caucus agrees upon a bill, it w ill not exceed the scope of the Fayne bill, and the Republican leaders tonight express grave doubt that any measure will be passed at this session. Dozen Amendments Offered. Nearly all of the so-called anti-injunction bills introduced at the present ses sion and now reposing in the judiciary committee until reported were brought to the attention of the conference tonight snd more than a dozen amendments to them were tentatively offered. The dis cussion provoked by these proposals was free and at tlnus spirited, but not dis putatious. Representatives Littlerield, of Maine; Jenkins of Wisconsin, and Parker of New Jersey, argued against any legis lation. Representatives Hubbard, of Joa; Townsend of Michigan, Madison of Kansas and Stirling of Illinois took the opposite side in the debate. Deities Courts Abuse Power. Mr. I.ittletield took the ground that there ought not to be any change in ex isting law with reference to the Issuing of injunctions. He said that any attempt to restrain the power of the courts with re Terence to the quest ion of notice and Jieariitg or as to time during which a restraining order should remain in effect, would in his judgment be beyond the power of Congress. He said there was no occasion for legislation on the ground that the courts had abused the power to issue writs of injunction; that the official reports showed that during the last five years only HJH injunctions had heen issued that 20 of these being in labor cases and five of those were issued after notice and hearing. There was nothing In the books, he said, to shoSv that the court In any instance had ex reeded or improperly exercised its power. Qle stated that within the last week or bo the American Federation of Labor Ihad filed with him 23 different injunctions covering a period from 18J3 up to date, hut had tiled ho. criticism 1n connec tion with any. ajid only one of them appeared to have been modified by the court the Elkins injunction, issued in 3$3, and thai was modified in only one particular. CONFERENCE CAN'T AGREE 2Uany Appropriations Held Up Pend ing: More Discussion. WASHINGTON, May 19. The confer ence report on the sundry civil appropria tion bill was submitted to the House to day and action on it has been postponed vntil tomorrow.

LILLEY'S CHARGES UNTRUE Continued from Page 1. lng upon the floor of the House the let ter written over hU own signature to 5off, reflecting upon certain members. The charges of corruption against the Electric Rout Company were found to be unfounded, no official of the Navy, no member of the House, no member of the committee on naval affairs, and no re porters of the preis having been ap proached by it with motives of bribery or corruption. No contribution to any cam paign fund was found to have been made by the Kloetric Hoat Company. The 1-tfike Torpedo Boat Company was shown to be behind the charges of excessive profits from submarine contracts, the figures being compiled by their agent for the purpose of perverting the testimony of Admiral Howies in Ii2. The reading: of the report was the lengthiest document presented before the House this session and put the two reading- clerks to a severe test of their vocal pojvers. I'pon the conclu sion of the reading- Payne, the major ity leader offered a resolution ap proving tho report and its conclusions and adopting them as the conclusion of the House. Higgins of Connecticut, a colleague of Lilley, announced that the delega tion from that state would vote against the resolution. Calls Mlley a Traitor. After a statement hy Payne that the committee was justified in its report and conclusions. Williams of Missis sippi, the minority leader, denounced IJIley as being guilty of treason. "The very worst form of treason to a government like ours," he said, "is cor rupt practice on the part of a repre sentative of the people.' He maln ,iained that any member of he House guilty of corrupt practices was an enemy of the people themselves, "not only an enemy, but a traitor." Such a member, he declared, waa not a gen tleman, for no gentleman betrayed a trust. "The very worst form of treason to the people," he exclaimed, "is to stigma tize as being guilty of corrupt practices fellow-representatives of the people who are not guilty of the charges." Committee Too Lenient. He said he had no hesitation in saying that such a man ought not to be allowed to remain a member of the House. The committee, he contended, had acted very leniently with Lilley, but he. waa sorry to observe that the Connecticut delega tion did not seem to appreciate that fact. Williams presumed that the reason the committee did not recommend expulsion was that Lilley was sick. "No man," he said, "ought to be ar raigned and visited with a heavy penalty without the opportunity of being heard," and he felt that was the reason the report had not been carried to its logical con clusion. Raising his voice to a high pitch, Williams exclaimed: . Tired of False Accusations. 'I am tired of the degradation of the representatives of the people. I am tired of my own association with that degra dation." It had, he declared, reached the point that simply because a man had been elected by the people to fill a place on the floor of the House he at once be came a suspect. After an unsuccessful attempt by Par sons, of New York, to obtain a postpone ment of action on the resolution' until the next session, 'the resolution waa adopted, yeas 157, nays S2, present 36. It was a non-partisan vote. THREE-GOBNERED BUTTLE MAX HQT DEAD BY ANOTHER MAX AND WOMAN. Oid Quarrel Beginning in Salt Lake Ends in Bloodshed in Hotel at Oakland. SAX FRANCISCO. May 20. (Special.) In a three-cornered battle with revolvers, in which a woman and two men, all armed, figured as the principals, George Jotinson, alias Moore, known as "Indian" Johnson, was shot dead In the Central hotel at 145 Twelfth street, in Oakland shortly after 7 o'clock this evening. Mrs. Robert Anderson, who fired at least one of the shots, was arrested, while her husband made his escape after he had been shot by Johnson. The men are said to be plumbers from Salt Lake. The shooting was the outcome of a quarrel started early this morning. John son, whose wife witnessed his murder, was by a former marriage a brother-in-law of Anderson, and it was said that the latter today accused Johnson of be ing responsible for the death of his sis ter in Salt Lake several years ago. Johnson and Anderson, with their wives, came to Oakland together from Salt Lake about a week ago and both couples se cured rooms in the Central hotel. Mrs. Johnson, who is being held In her room as a witness, said that her husband had worked as a plumber in Salt Lake and other cities in Utah.

Portland Ijf Angeles ... Oakland 21 23 .561 .488 .48fi .462 3 1, 9 17 Lost BY WIL.L, O. MAC RAE Lonj? Bobby Groom, and that elusive right soup bone of his, yanked us out of the cellar yesterday afternoon on the Vaughn-street playground. By his marvelous whiffing ability Groom sent the nameless wonders from Oak land away stung to the tune of 6 to 3. Mr. Groom's wind carom machinery was working like an antiquated swain trying to convince a 16-year-old mai den that she's his first and only love. During the melee Mr. Groom and his fllnger struck out 1? of the visitors. Only once did the elongated Portland twirler fight shy of the hard-swatting Mr. Sla-ttery. With two on the way stations in the fourth canto. Groom quietly issued the Oakland slugger a pass. 1 Captain Van Haltren sent a Mr. Kil lian to the altar. Killlan was killed off before the opening chapter was half out of its swaddling cloths. A base on balls to Casey, two singles and Danzig's long drive for two bases, giving us four runs, had finished Kil llan. Van Haltren trotted In from center field, shooed Klllian to the rest cure and handed us McFarland. Mc Farland kept us from doing much but get on the bases until the seventh. Then Ryan opened up with a single. Tom Raftery sent Ryan to third and took second himself on a long wallop to left. Ryan started for home and fell. He would have been caught, but Cook also took a tumble. Ryan hit the mud again when he went to score. He would have been morgued. but this time Slattery took a mud slide and Ryan hit him so hard that he dropped the ball. The sixth and last run was a gift at the hands of McKarland, who, in a weird effort to nail Babe Danzig, heaved the ball so that it caromed off Danzig's shoulder and went to the fence, scoring Raftery. Mr. Groom, while his ozone market was gilt-edged, was a bit wobbly. Once, after filling up the sacks, he escaped without a scratch, but in the fifth inning he walked Smith and Van Haltren. Heitmuller's single ad vanced them each a peg and both scored on Johnson's bad throw to first. A double steal figured in the third Oakland score. The score: OAKLAND. AB. R. IB. P.O. A.

( t-pokane was unaDie to make a run to day because of the good pitching of Claflin, released recently by Spokane, and the timely Kiting of Centerflelder Swain, of Butte, also released by Spokane. The fielding was silt-edged and the crowd, quite large for a weekday, had thrills galore. Deadly throwing both catchers to the bases was the feature of infield play. Butte scored all the runs of the game In the third inning, when two men walked two singles scoring the first run and Swain's .double scoring two more.

After the awful trouncing, they suffered at the hands of the locals yesterday,, the Black Cats turned the tables today. They pelted Allen all over the lot, and he was retired In four innings. Ehmke relieved him, but could not stop the run-getting. Bennett made two bad errors that helped along the visitors' scoring, but "clean fielding would have made little difference: Thompson pitched a nice game for Aber deen. He was in danger once, but walked Frisk and struck out Lussi. and two run ners died on. the sacks. Once after that Seattle got men on second and third with one out. but Aberdeen was so far ahead there was no chance of winning. Two fast double plays by Adams, Ben nett and Lussi were features.

TO THEPUBLIC. It may seem strange that this firm, enjoying as it has the confidence and re spect of the public for 25 years, should de cide to close out a lucrative business. However, such Is the case. There are some things in connection with this closing-out sale which in no wise concern the general public. The character of the stock we carry is- too well known to need mention here. Suffice to say the stock will be -closed out at once, afford ing a bargain opportunity you'll find but once in a lifetime.

Portland Athlete TIls of Visit to California : Noted Performers Will Attend P. X. A. Meet. Forrest. C. Smithson. Multnomah's champion track athlete, returned from San Francisco Tuesday night on the steamer Rose City. Smithson was sent to California by the club to take part in the Olympic try out games and while he made no new records he easily- demon strated that he is in a class by him self, so far as athletes of the Pacific Coast are concerned. Smithson succeeded in getting five crack athletes to sign en trance applications for the big P. N. A. meet, to be held here on June 6. ' Among them is Ralph Rose, the champion weight man of the world, who took first place In every event In which he was entered In the try-outs, .including the hammer throw, shot-put and discus-throw. Port landers will have an opportunity to see one of the world's greatest athletes in action when he comes here. Glarner, the great quarter and half-mile sprinter of the OlymrJi; Club, will also be here fjid the race between him and Edmundson, of the University of Idaho, should prove a feature of the programme. Edmundson is . considered the best distance runner in the Northwest and should give Glarner a hard run for,, first place. ' Munn, the high jumper, pole vaulter and weight man is another star who will appear here June 6. while It Is probable though not certain that Forest Stanton of the University of California, will accompany the Olympic team. Stan ton is a quarter and half-mile man and is the best in these events that the uni versity has ever turned out. Gerhart, the junior champion of the United States in the 100-yard dash will be the fifth member of the Olympic team and is considered a almost sure winner In the 100-yard dash. Smithson took part in a number of track meets while on this trip and had little difficulty In winning a majority of the events in which he was entered. A big meet was held at Berkeley for the benefit of the visiting sailors Thursday, May 14, and one of the features of the entertainment was a 100-yard dash with Ollie Snedigar, Gerhart, Paul and Smith son entered. Smithson won the event with ease covering the distance in a little over ten seconds. Smithson refereed the San Francisco In terscholastle annual track meet held at Golden Gate Park. Over 20,000 people witnessed this contest Smithson gave an exhibition run In the 100-yard low hurdles, covering the distance in 12 seconds flat. The world's record In this event is 12 2-6 seconds. Smithson will make an effort to lower the world's record in both the 100 yard and 200-yard hurdles here June 6, and from the manner in which he has been improving there is every reason to believe that he will accomplish the feat. RELAY RACE NEXT SATURDAY . Grammar School Boys Will Contest for Glisan Cup. Next Saturday will be a gala day for the city Grammar schools. This is the date fixed for the big relay race from Oregon City to Portland. Five teams of 13 men each have been entered and the race is creating plenty of interest among the Juvenile athletes. The teams entered are from the Hawthorne, Failing, Alns worth, Holladay and Mt. Tabor schools. Last year Hawthorne won the cup given by Rodney Glisan, and has high hopes of duplicating the trick this season. A school, to .become the permanent holder of the cup. must win it three times. The course lies along the west side of "of the Willamette River, and Is 13 miles in length. Each runner will cover a mile and there will be judges of the race at every milcpost to see that the rules of the race are complied with. The run ners will be distributed along the course by a launch and an automobile, and after the race will be brought back to the city by the same conveyances. The race will end at the Y. M. C. A.

TVIIililAMS-AVENCE TEAM WINS Defeats Brooklyn and Will Probably Land Championship. The Williams -Avenue baseball team, of the Portland Grammar School League, defeated tlm Brooklyn school team in the semi-finalH yesterday afternoon by a score of 9 to 1. The game was played on the grounds at Bast Third and East Davis streets and was attended by sev eral hundred people. The hard-hitting of the "Williams-Avenue team, coupled with the pitching of Arthur and the speedy infield work, prove- too much! for the Brooklyn team. This game leaves but three teams in the run for the league championship, and from a comparison of scores. It looks as though the "Williams-Avenue team will win the cup. Williams Avenue will end its schedule by playing the winner of the Chapman-Arleta game. This gives Wil liams Avenue the best chance to win, as the 'other teams must win two straight games to land the championship. The batteries in yesterdays game were: Wil liams Avenue Arthur and Haughey; Brooklyn Wilson and Older. American Women Successful. ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, May 20.
