STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or.. March
ltf. (Special.) No appropriations for n'or
nml schools were made by the Oregon
Legislature, which ended its special ses
sion at 8:40 tonight. The lawmakers quit
the Capitol, leaving dead in the House a.
Senate bill granting the schools $S000
each for maintenance until next June.
The normal forces repudiated the bill
nnd its supporters could not muster the
two-thirds vote necessary to advance It
to second reading. The vote on suspen
sion of rules was 3 ayes to 16 noes.
This afternoon in the House. Repre
sentatives from normal counties sang
swan songs. They declared indignantly
that the members who killed the normal
appropriations will be remembered in
future politics and punished by the peo
ple. They asserted that the people want
the three normals supported. Jones of
Tolk angrily declared the normals more
alive than ever. Mahone. their Multno
mah friend, promised the people's venge
ance, saying that since the normals have
been driven Into politics, their foes will
.-. urn poimcs tney want.
Normal Krlends Insistent.
Barrett, of Umatilla, averred that the
legislature had neglected one of Its most
Important duties. Buchanan, represent
ing Jackson County, denied that the
normal forces were traders or logrollers.
These men said the normals will stay
open until the people claim them next
election. Jones, speaking on this score
for Monmouth. Barrett for Weston and
Buchanan for Ashland, each of them
thanked their allies in the House.
Tonight on the question to suspend the
rules for the bill in the House. Barrett
shouted :
"I want every friend of the normals to
vote no." The vote was:

Conference la Denied.
The bill passed the Senate this aft
ernoon against but four votes Albee.
Johnson. Smith of Umatilla and "Wood.
It was the lost declaration of the Sen
ate to the House that the Senate would
not keep up the three Normal systems.
Karlicr In the day the Senate refused
to consider a proposal of the House
for a conference committee and indef
initely postponed a, Joint resolution of
the House for a referendum on each
of the Normals next election. In the
House Mahone made the motion for the
conference committee and the Speaker
named Mahone. Hawley and Buchanan,
all Normal men. to represent the House.
When they called on the Senate they
were told by the leaders there that
the Senate had nothing to confer about.
The Senate bill was introduced by
Smith, of Marion, and originally appro
priated JIO.00O for each Normal. Bow
erman demanded a less sum, and the
bill was referred to the Judiciary com
mittee, where the amount was S000
each. This -completely disgusted the
Normal forces, and they announced they
would give it no support.
House Sees Fireworks.
Before reference to committee. Smith
of Umatilla, representing Weston, tried
unsuccessfully to have the bill indef
initely postponed.
The amended bill was reported back
from the judiciary committee. Johnson,
representing Monmouth, sought to head
off further consideration by propos
ing adjournment sine die. This mo
tion was voted down and further dis
cussion was shut off by Coffey, -who
moved the previous question. The bill

cial.) In the San Jacinto Mountains,
near the edge of the Coachella Valley. B.
P. Bond, of Long Beach, has just made

cal discovery, and one that will be of
worldwide Interest. While rambling up
from his desert land claim, he found the
ruins of a prehistoric city containing
from 700 to 1000 well-preserved stone
houses. Evidences of well-paved streets,
strange earthenware of fine type scat
tered about and he general aspect of the
place shows that it was no mean com
munity, but savored of civilization.
Bond arrived here today and after con
ferring with Charles F. Lummls and
other scientists, arranged to place accu
rate information concerning his remark
able nnd before the Smithsonian Insti
tute. He already has assurance by wire
that an Immediate and thorough ex
ploration will bo conducted from Wash
ington and has been asked in the mean
time not to divulge the exact location of
the ruins, lest relic-hunters and others
strip them of probable valuables. He
states the silent city lies within 15 miles
of Indio and not over five miles from
the old Los Angeles-Yuma road.

Taken and Orders Out
Military Forces.
HAVANA, March 16. The first real up
rising against the new Cuban Republic
occurred last night, within a little more
than six weeks after the Inauguration
of General Gomez as president. How se
rious the trouble is it is impossible to
determine.
A sergeant of the rural euarrf. -
tioned at the town of Vueltas. Santa
Clara Province, with a party of seven
men. some other members of the rural
guard, and a number of peasants, took
to the woods, and troops are in pursuit.
Find Big Conspiracy.
While the. movement apparently is un
important, numerically, all indications
are that it is part of a widespread con
spiracy. Its nature is indicated by a dis
patch stating that a special train, earrv.
ing a detachment of rural guards, under
command of Major-General Monteaeuerin
was proceeding as rapidly as possible for
vueltas.
President Gomez declared his intention
of suppressing the rising and making an
example of all concerned.. He ordered the
rapid; concentration. of trenps !-vtrii Ktc'n
ity of Vueltas to surround the fugitives.
Orders were Issued to the trnnrw ,
no prisoners, if they encountered resist
ance, ana not to cease the pursuit until
an naa Deen Killed or captured.
Rebels Under Arrest
It was learned later that a conspiracy
had been unearthed in whieh -
. . . , uljU
guard was implicated. At Placetas, an
ex-captam of the rural guard, LaVastida
by name, and at Vueltas, Corporal Rich
ardo and two civilians were arrested on
me cnarge or complicity in the insur
rectionary movement.

An Interesting theory in connection

WILL PRESENT BILL TODAY
House Committee Awaits Cushman's
Approval as New Member and
Keeps Measure Locked
Up Over Xlght. .
WASHINGTON, March 16. The mes
sage of President Taft recommending
prompt and thorough revision of the
tariff and its consideration at the extra
session of Congress, to the exclusion of
all other subjects, was received with loud
and prolonged applause in both Senate
and House. The 'message is brief and
to the point and is as follows:
"To the Senate and House of Represen
tativesI have convened the Congress in
thia extra session In order to enable it to
give Immediate consideration to the re
vision of the Dingley tariff act. Condi
tions affecting production, manufacture
and business generally have so changed
in the last 12 years as to require a re
adjustment and revision of the Import
duties Imposed by that act. More than
this, the present tariffsact, with the other
sources of Government revenue, does- not
furnish income enough to pay the au
thorized expenditures. By July 1 next the
excess of expenditures over receipts for
the curreDt fiscal year will equal $100.
000.000. Reasons for Quick Action.
"The successful party in the late elec
tion is pledged to a revision of the tariff.
The country- and -the business community
especially expect 1C The prospect of a
change In the rates of Import duties al
ways causes a suspension or halt in busi
ness because of the uncertainty as to the
conditions to be made and their effect. It
Is therefore of the highest importance
that the new bill should be agreed upon
and passed with as much speed as pos
sible consistent with its due and- thor
ough consideration. For these reasons, I
have daemed the present to be an extra
ordinary occasion within the meaning of
the Constitution, justifying and requiring
the calling of an extra session.
"Jn my inaugural address I stated in a
summary way the principles upon which,
in my judgment,' the revision of the tariff
should proceed, and Indicated at least one
new source of revenue that might be
properly resorted to in order to avoid a
future deficit. It is not necessary for me
to repeat what I then said.
"I venture to suggest that the vital
business interests of the country require
that the attention of the Congress in
this session be chiefly devoted to the
consideration of the new tariff bill, and

NEW TORK. March 1 (SneMal 1
Panics ha-e been caused In Wall street
oy tne merest rumors, and great ex
citement has followed the most trlval
happenings in the financial ritat-i.t
but the furbulent half hour just before
the closing of the market today had
a. reai iounaation.
It was a sheath gown.
At the first glimpse of the fair wear
er, a mob oi brokers made a rush for
the real curb where hn ntn cQQtnff
their employers leaving, the messenger
ano runners followed In turn.
Seeing everybody moving made other
brokers, their clerks and messengers
leave their offices, while those who
were too high In the office buildings
to reach the street in time, craned
their necks as far out of the window
as possible. It did not take many min
utes before the young woman and the
sheath gown were surrounded by about
6000 men. g
The police had become active by this
time, and when the traffic men saw
how large a crowd was getting their
nerve left them and they called for
help. The call resulted in the reserves
being hurried to the scene.
The police finally called a cab for the
young woman, and with a guard of six
bluecoats she was escorted out through
the Wall-street entrance. The cab was
driven to the office of a well-known
spice firm on Front street.

The lower court, which refused dam
ages to W. W. Rumsey, who sued W. A.

of this court takes judicial cognizance
of the fact that in Georgia to call a

him with a weapon, most generally
means, fight. There may be exceptions
to this rule, but they are exotics and
find little nourishment on Georgi: soil

LONDON. March 16. Dramatic reve

Germany's extraordinary development In
her capacity to build big battleships rap
Idly seems likely to mark a crisis in
Great Britain's naval nistory. Quite cer

maintaining naval supremacy. Its effect
was electrical.
Immediately - the debate on the navy
estimates was concluded a hurried meet

the situation -thus unexpectedly revealed
was anxiously debated. No decision was
reached, but the speeches showed little

It becomes, as Mr. Balfour pointedly
put it in today's speech, which greatly
