Small Prospect of Action This Ses

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.

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. The report of the House
conferees showed that about 40 of the 163
Amendments under consideration have

Chief among these are the appropriation
of $o.000.000 for the purchase of a site

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.

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.

SPOKANE! Wash.. May 20. (Special.! (
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.
Dudley of Butte was the only player on
either side charged with an error, and
his fielding otherwise was brilliant. The

Bennett made two bad errors that helped

Frisk and struck out Lussi. and two run

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

once in a lifetime. McAllen & McDonnell.

FORREST SMITHSON ROME
WOS HOXORS IX OLYMPIC TRY
OUT GASfES.
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
