OYSTER BAY. " July 1. President
Roosevelt, in the first 10 days of his
vacation, has succeeded In doing con
siderable work in the fields and woods
on his grounds at Sagamore Hill, be
sides entertaining many visitors and
holding conferences with Mr. Taft. His
activity never halts. If there is no
work on the grounds of his estate, he
spends , his time In reading or in re
creation in the form of tennis, horse
back riding or rowing. Splendid weath
er, though somewhat warm, has fa
vored the President during the 10 days
of his vacation.
About the President's home on Saga
more Hill are several fields, which this
year grew good crops- of hay. Taking
advantage of the fine weather for the
hay-making, the President went into
the fields today and helped to do the
mowing and raking. The hay crop be
ing harvested, the President turned his
attention to the clearing of a stretch
of woods, comprising about 40 acres,
recently purchased by him to enlarge
his estate.
Works as AVoodsman.
With his ax on his shoulder, accom
panied by his attendant, also with an
ax, the President this morning started
out for a few hours' work at' tree
chopping before receiving some gueste
who had been Invited to Sagamore Hill
for luncheon. Before noon he felled a
number of trees, leaving only such as
he desired to have stand to make the
property correspond with his- estate ad
joining. At lunch today the President enter
tained S. S. McClure. Casper J. Whit
ney and James Williams, the latter a
member of the Taft campaign bureau.
President Roosevelt today asked Sec
retary Loeb to deny the report that he
was negotiating for a site in New York
City, on which he would build a city
home. The statement made by Mr, Loeb
was:
Loeb Xails Huge Lie.
With reference to the report published
this morning that the President purposes
to purchase the Union Theological Seminary
property. Secretary Loeb said that there
were certain stories started, which seemed
to be even more remarkable for their ab
surdity than for their sensationalism or
mendacity. This particular story might
just about as well have been that the presi
dent intended to purchase the Parthenon
and turn It Into a private residence.
The president n but one house that at
Oyster Bay and has not the -remotest In
tention of building another anywhere. Until
the president's attention was called to
this story in the paper he not only had
never heard It suggested, but he would not
have believed that any human feeing would
have put into type a statement so insane.
Want Book on Africa.
Since the announcement was pub
lished that the. President would go on
an extensive trip in Africa next April,
magazine and book publishers have
been besieging him for the rights to
publish his experiences in either serial
or book form. Today's visitors- Includ
ed S. S. McClure and Caeper Whitney,
the latter on his second visit inside of
a week. This lias given rise to the re
port that Mr. Whitney may accompany
the President.
It is known all the big publishers
are making efforts to have the Presi
dent write for them. Whether he has
closed a deal with anyone cannot be
learned, but it Is believed that he has
a& yet made no decision in the matter.
BARTNETT GIVEN LIMIT
Ten-Year Term for Banker Who
Took Trust Funds.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1. Walter J.
Bartnett, formerly vice-president and
general counsel for the Western Pacific
Railroad, and vice-president and gen
eral counsel for the California Safe
Deposit & Trust Company, which failed
in this city last November for about
$9,000,000, was today sentenced to San
Quentin Penitentiary for 10 years, by
Superior Judge Conley. Bartnett was
convicted of having hypothecated bonds
and securities to the amount of $205,000
belonging to the estate of Ellen M.
Colton. of which he was special ad
ministrator. Bartnett, who has been at liberty for
several weeks on $200,000 bail, was
remanded into the custody of the
sheriff, and his counsel immediately
gave notice of apeal to the Appellate
Court, and asked that Bartnett be given
his liberty on bail pending the determi
nation of the appeal. This was strong
ly opposed by Assistant District At
torney William Hoff Cook, but Judge
Conley said ,he would receive an ap
plication for Bartnetfs release this
morning and would fix the bail at $200,
000. In passing sentence. Judge Conley
declared that he could not agree with
the Jury that Bartnett was entitled to
the mercy of the court in having vio
lated the faith and trust imposed in
him as administrator of the Colton
estate, and he therefore gave him the
maximum penalty provided by law for
the crime of embezzlement.
Tortured by Mulnt Hafid.
FEZ, Jun 24 (Wednesday). Abd El
Melek, chief of El Quare expeditionary
force, wiio was captured by the forces
ofiMulal Harid, was subjected to hor
rible torture on account of his refusal
to surrender. His captors wrapped him
in chain? and left him hanging head
downward while they lashed him into
inst nsibllity with whips.

TAFT TURNS REINS
OVER TO WRIGHT
Change in War Department Is
Attended With Simple
Ceremony.
NO CHAIRMAN SELECTED
Presidential Xomlnce Holds Confer
ence With A. I. Vorys, of Ohio,"
Mho, It Is Definitely Settled.
Will Xot Be Appointed.
WASHINGTON, July 1. After a long
conference this afternoon between the
Republican Presidential nominee and
Arthur I. Vorys, of Ohio, Mr. Taft
said:
"Vou can say absolutely and definite
ly that the chairmanship of the Repub
lican National Committee has not yet
been settled. No announcement of a
decision as to the chairmanship will be
made until after I have conferred at
Hot Springs, Va., next Wednesday, with'
the sub-committee of the National Com
mittee. I hope this is sufficiently
definite, and that my statement will be
accepted."
Mr. Taft has been urged strongly to
select Mr. Vorys as his campaign man
ager, but it is now definitely settled
that he will not do so, though he enter
tains for Mr. Vorys a high regard and
much appreciates the part Mr. Vorys
played in the preliminary campaign.
At the conclusion of their conference
today neither Mr. Taft nor Mr. Vorys
would make any statement concerning
details. Mr. Vorys went to New York
tonight, and thence will go directly to
Columbus, Ohio, arriving there some
time Friday.
This was Mr. Taft's first day as a
private citizen tn many ypars. His res
ignation as Secretary orf War became
effective last midnight, and for 12
hours the American Government today
was without a Secretary of War.
Hold Final Conference.
Prior to the formail induction into
office of Governor Lufce E. Wright to
day, Mr. Taft had a long consultation
with him and with tte officials of the
War Department about departmental
affairs.
At noon Governor" Wright took the
oath of office as Seu-etary of War. Es
corted by the retiring Secretary, William
H. Taft, General Wright passed from
the private office of the Secretary into
the general reception-room. There, sur
rounded! by prominent Army officers and
officials of the War) Department, the oath
was administered to Secretary Wright by
John B. Randolph the veteran assistant
to Chief Clerk Schotield, ol the depart
ment. Mr. Randolph has administered the oath
of office to four previous Secretaries of
War, including Mr. Taft.
An informal reception of the . bureau
chiefs, division -chiefs and clerks of tho
department and Army officers stationed
in Washington was held in the Secre
tary's private office by Mr. Toft and
Secretary Wright.
Luncheon Is Tendered Wright.
Soon after the reception, Mr. Taft, ac
companied by Secretary Wright, went to
the home of General Clarence Edwards,
chief of the Bureau of Insular Affairs,
for luncheon. Other guests at the lunch
eon were Mrs. Taft, Miss Helen Taft.
Master Charlie Taft and Mr. and Mrs.
Post-Wheeler.
Secretary Taft and his family, with
the exception of Miss Helen Taft. who
left today on a visit to friends in
Georgia, were guests at dinner tonight
of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
fancy
larly
at.
Chevy Chase home. Later, Mr. and
Mrs. Taft and their son, Charlie, were
taken in an automobile to the residence
of General J. Franklin Bell at Fort
Myer, Va. They will make General
Bell's residence their home until they
leave Washington next Friday lor Hot
Springs, their own residence being al
most wholly dismantled, preparatory to
their departure from Washington.
KELLOGG' S SAME MENTIONED
Prosecutor of Oil Trust May Be
come National Chairman.
NEW YORK, July I. There is a per
sistent report here today that Frank B.
Kellogg is to be chairman of the Repub
lican National Committee. Mr. Kellogg
went to Oyster Bay by automobile, ac
companied by William L. Ward, commit
teeman from this state, and had an inter
view with President Roosevelt.
Mr. Kellogg was smiling as he left Sag
amore Hill and appeared to be much
pleased over his talk with the President.
After the conference at Sagamore Hill,
Mr. Kellogg called on Secretary Loeb at
the Executive Office in Oyster Bay.
Mr. Kellogg's trip was made unan
nounced. His absence from the Standard
Oil hearing, however, occasioned some
remarks and it was believed that the
business responsible for his non-appearance
was connected with the National
chairmanship.
BRYAN WORKS FOR REUNION
(Continued From First Pare.)
porarlly at least, reports that he fa
vored Mr. Towne.
"Mr. Towne is quoted as stating that
you some time ago assured Mr. Towne
that he would be acceptable to you; is
that true?" Mr. Bryan was asked.
Bryan's Skilful Evasion.
"He meant that I was favorable to
them," said Mr. Bryan, with stress on
the last word, and with a wave of the
arm indicated the galaxy of favorite
sons whose names have been mentioned
in connection with the nomination for
a running-mate. Mr. Bryan is silent
on all matters pertaining to probable
action by the convention, in order to
disarm, probable criticism on the score
that he is attempting to dictate.
So far as can be learned, Mr. Bryan
will not have a telegraph wire in his
house during the convention. He will
depend on the wires being strung into
a cottage 300 yards away for the con
venience of newspaper correspondents.
John M. Garman. a delegate from
the Eleventh Pennsylvania district, paid
his respects to Mr. Bryan today. Mr.
Garman was chairman of the State
Central Committee in 1896. News that
Judge Gray would not accept the Vice
Presidential nomination did not dis
please the Pennsylvanian.
"I don't believe Gray was the strong
est man we could get. He bolted the
Bryan ticket in 1896 and hsa been hold
ing an appointive job under a Republi
can administration. There are lots of
us who haven't forgiven him for bolt
ing. If he'd get back into the ranks
of the party again and work for the
common good, we might forget."
Mr. Towne left Lincoln at 6 P. M. and
is due at Denver at 7 A. M. tomorrow.
Mayor Brown, of Lincoln, and Thomas
Alien, Mr. Bryan's brother-in-law, were
in conference with the Democratis leader
at Fairview last night.
"I have known Mr. Bryan intimately
for years and am a delegate-at-large to
Denver," said Mr. Brown today. "Yet
Mr. Bryan has not intimated to me that
he desires me to vote for any particular
Viee-Presidentiai candidate. Personally,
I am for Judge Gray. I believe he would
be strong with tlm labor and with busi
ness interests alike. I have seen it re
peatedly stated that Mr. Towne claims
that Mr. Bryan favors his candidacy. I
believe, however, that Mr. Towne is mis
taken. Mr. Bryan is supporting no one
at present so far as his friends here
know."
When Mr. Bryan was shown the report
that he was credited with favoring John
B. Stanchfleld, of New York, for Vice
President in the event that Judge Gray
is not available, he said:
"The Vice-Presidency is a matter I will
not discuss."
Many delegations on their way to "Den
ver are expected to stop over and pay
their respects to Mr. Bryan on Friday and
Saturday. A movement has been started
to have Mr. Bryan receive the notification
committee at Fairview in the event of
his nomination, but he refuses to talk
on the subject before the convention has
acted.

ISSUES DEFINED
" BY DEMOCRATS
Handbook Issued by Congres
sional Campaign Com
mittee. EXTRAVAGANCE IS FIRST
Extracts From Speeches During Ses
sion Deal Also With Finance,
Tariff, Trusts, Federal Usur
pation, Cannon's Tyranny.
WASHINGTON, July 1. The Demo
cratic Congressional committee has
broken its record in the issuance
of a hand-book four months be
fore the Presidential election. The pub
lication contains nearly 400 pages of
extracts from speeches made in Con
gress during the last session, most of
them during the month preceding ad
journment. The issuance of this pub
lication is an innovation on the part of
the committee and is in line with a
similar publication put out by the Re
publican committee four years ago. It
is the work of Representative Lloyd, of
Missouri, chairman of the Congress
ional committee, and is composed exclu
sively of Congressional speeches and
consequently can be franked by mem
bers of Congress.
After the National convention the
committee will issue its regular hand
book as usual. The present publica
tion by the Congressional committee,
however, is of special interest in de
nning what are believed at this time to
be the issues of the campaign. .
Extravagance and Finance.
"Republican extravagance" is expect
ed to be the keynote of the campaign.
Representative Fitzgerald, of New York
and Senator Culberson, of Texas, pro
vided the material for this chapter In
their speeches during the last days of
the session. x
"Financial conditions" form the sec
ond subject in the book. Senator Owen,
of Oklahoma, and Representatives
Clark, of Missouri, and Houston, of
Tennessee; Lloyd, of Missouri; James,
of Kentucky ; Garrett, of Tennessee;
and Hamlin, of Missouri; all contrib
uted to this subject.
A chapter "On the Tariff and the
Trusts' occupies about 80 pages of the
book.
"Federal Usurpation," "Currency Re
form," "Philippine Policy," "Tyranny of
the Speaker and Rules Committee of
the House of Representatives," "Repub
lican Responsibility,' are all subjects
considered at length.
"The Alarming Conditions" that face
the country are commented upon and
the "publicity of campaign funds," a
vindication of Judge Parker, a chapter
on labor, the merchant marine, and the
election of United States Senators by
popular vote, conclude the category of
subjects.
The committee regards its chapter on
"Republican Responsibility' as of es
pecial importance and quotes a speech
by Representative Sherman, of New
York. Vice-Presidential candidate on
the Republican ticket.
The Republican Congressional com
mittee probably will not issue its hand
book before August 1.
Cholera in Philippines.
MANILA, July 1. The cholera has again
spread from Pangasinan Pro-lnce to the

MONETT STATES BR Y AX'S VIEW
Three Points on Injunctions He
Considers Essential.
DENVER, July 1. What is regarded As
the very latest indication that Mr. Bryan
does not contemplate changing his posi
tion on the injunction question to meet
the ideas of conservatives was brought
to town today by Frank S. Monett, Re
publican Attorney -General of Ohio from
1896 to 1900. 1
Mr. Mohett was in conference with Mr.
Bryan at Lincoln yesterday,, as the re
sult of which he says he will have Mr.
Bryan's indorsement in appearing before
the resolutions committee of the conven
tion to state the legal and political rea
sons why the injunction plank should
pledge the Democratic party to amend
ment of the law in these three particu
lars: First, to prevent the Issuing of the
writ in industrial disputes except after
notice to defendants and full hearing.
Second, to permit trial before a judge
other than the one who Issues the writ,
and, third, to allow a jury to be sum
moned in all cases where the alleged
contempt is committed outside the pres
ence of the court.
That Mr. Bryan has heretofore taken
his stand on. an injunction plank con
taining these elements is the statement
today of Mr. Monett, and the fact that
Mr. Bryan requested Mr. Monett to urge
their acceptance by the resolutions com
mittee is taken by the Ohloan to mean
that Mr. Bryan will be satisfied with
nothing leas.
Having recently been the legislative at
torney in Ohio for the Brotherhoods of
Conductors, Engineers and Firemen, as
well as having close contact with 'labor
views through his legal connection with
the miners and brickmakers in the Hock
ing Valley strike of last February, Mr.
Monett said today that he informed Mr.
Bryan that President Roosevelt's ma
jority from the industrial centers in Ohio
and 500,000 in Pennsylvania was given be
cause labor believed Mr. Roosevelt was
with it, particularly on the injunction
demand.
OXLY HALF CROP IN GILLIAM
Cold Weather Responsible Some
Sections in Good Condition.
CONDON, Or., July 1. (Special.)
Reports from various sections of Gil
Ham County regarding the wheat yield
are conflicting, but in general it is be
lieved that the crop will not be much
more than a half. This is a conserva
tive estimate, given by a wheat man
who has been looking over the field
carefully. In the sections of Clem and
Gwendolen, this county, the crop will
be a third less than last year. The
grain has been damaged, not so much
by hot winds, but by unusual cold
snaps.
Prospects In Mayvllle and Matney
Flat districts are good, and unless un
foreseen circumstances arise, the yield
will be nearly equal to last year. 'The
harvest is at least two weeks later
than last year, and will not be general
for about three weeks. At Olex, har
vest will begin about July 10.
SEVERAL REBELS CAPTURED
All Peons Who Say Leaders Forced
Them to Serve.
CITY OF MEXICO, July 1. Reports of
an attack on the village of Palomas, State
of Chihuahua, by a band of 20 Mexican
raiders are confirmed. The attacking
party was repulsed and its leader wound
ed and captured. The raiders are said
to have come from Douglas, Ariz, Palo
mas is a town of small population near
the American border.
The raiders who were near Viesca have
been scattered in the mountains and sev
eral of them captured. All of those taken
prisoners were peons, who said they were
conscripted by bandits.

ELMORE
PLAN
Columbia River Salmon King
Tells How to Save Industry.
LENGTHEN CLOSED SEASON
Stop Sunday Fishing, Prohibit Tak
ing of Salmon Above Mouth of
Willamette and Regulate
Size of Meshes.
"Stop fishing between August 25 and
June 1," advisee Samuel Elmore, of As
toria, who, as vice-president and general
manager of the Columbia River Packers'
Association, puts more Chinooks in tin
cans and salt barrels than anybody on
the river, who is salmon king of Tilla
mook, CoqulUe, Alsea, Umpqua and Si
letz, who operates Tillamook's boat line
and who is the newspaper power of
Astoria.
"Give us also the closed Sunday, abol
ish fishing above the Willamette River
and regulate the size of the meshes, and
we'll have all the salmon we want for
generations to come."
In such words did Mr. Elmore preach
the salvation of the salmon Industry yes
terday. Asked what he would do with
the canneries between August 25 and
June 1, he replied, "let em rust, as they
are now doing." Asked what that meant,
he paid:
'The salmon pack is between 30 and 40
per cent short" which means that the
supply Is still going from bad to worse.
Mr. Elmore came to Portland to present
to Colonel Roessler, United States Engi
neers, the case of the McGowans. packers
of Chinook, Wash., who by planting their
set nets in front of hie seining grounds
for which he pays the Government $6000
a year rental make the seining grounds
worthless and the $0000 so much waste
money. Mr. Elmore outbid the McGow
ans for the seining grounds and thinks
that they should retire from the premises
and have due regard for his tenancy of
Uncle Sam's domain, just as Mr. Elmore
retired from them three years ago, when
outbid by the McGowans. But the Mc
Gowans now contend that their seven or
eight set nets, being below low tide mark,
are outside Mr. Elmore's rented limits.
But Mr. Elmore considers them obstruct
tions to naglvation, and beyond the
power of the McGowan's to place in
Uncle Sam's water highway. This dis
pute imposes on Colonel Roessler the
duty of inspecting the premises, to deter
mine whether the McGowan's are ob
structing the highway.
However, Mr. Elmore did not care to
discuss this matter and he allowed the
details to be pressed out of him unwill
ingly, yet, like a true salmon king, he
has opinions about protection of salmon,
which many other kings will not accept.
That far, he is like King Seufert, King
Warren, King Hume, King Tallant and
King Rosenberg.
But as the biggest of them all King
Elmore has opinions which are entitled
to respectful consideration. He is willing
to shut off April and May fishing and
to close shop on Sunday. If salmon could
be protected that muob. there would un
doubtedly be big gains. He would not

bother the glllnetters nor the trappers nor
the seiners, except to make their meshes
bigger.
But as for tne wheelmen he would abof
Hsh their gear and prohibit all fishing
above the Willamette river. Mr. Elmore's
rivals say that is because he catches his
fish below Willamette River, and this
starts again the wrangle of the fish fac
tions, which culminated last election day
in enactment of conflicting laws, each
proposed Dy a faction hostile to the one
at which the law is aimed.
Let that trouble rest for the present.
It will not renew the wrangle to note
th at Mr. Elmore feels the pressing ne
cessity of salmon -protection, if the fish
are to be saved from extermination, and
that he urges two of the most important
remedies closed Sunday and longer closed
