MOVE TO IMPEACH JUDGES ContInued From First Fage.) today as a question of personal privilege, lie had read some newspaper dispatches to the effect that Frank Hagerman, attor ney for 18 railroads, had telegraphed Vnited States Attorney -General Wicker sham, a-lleginff that the charges in the Murphy resolution "were an outrageous tissue of misrepresentation by. one who lias no knowledge of the facts." Clayton of Alabama, a member of the Judiciary committee, objected, saying the argument was not one of personal priv ilege. Hucker Backs--lTp Murphy. Cannon ruled that Murphy was within his rights and could continue, but he had . not proceeded far when Henry of Texas, another member of the judiciary commit tee, stopped him with an inquiry as to whether he did not Intend formally to fcring In charges of impeachment. -The Missouri member did not give a direct answer, but continued his recital of the charges contained In his resolu tion. He called Rucker. his colleague, to substantiate what he was saying. Rurker did so, and declared that Judge rhilltps should have been impeached 20 years ago. Murphy denied that the State of Mis souri had been accorded every cour tesy In the rate cases, as was stated In Hagerman s telegram. The state, he de clared, fcad no knowledge or notice what ver of the first injunction in those cases. Immediately after adjournment. Mur phy announced that he would bring -formal charge of imperchment against both Judges Phillips and Mcpherson v INJUNCTION IS CONTINUED McFlicrson's Course Not Chungeil by Threat of Impeachment. ' 'KANSAS CTTY;. Mo.. May fi-Judge Emith I.lcl'hcrson, in the Federal Court here today, continued in force the temporary injunction granted - recently by ludge John J. Phillips, restraining Siebert Jones, Circuit Attorney of St. Louis, from prosecuting the suit filed by him In the Circuit Court of that city, restraining the railroads of Missouri from charging a three-cent passenger rate. No other state officers are i in cluded in the injunctive order In which is to remain in force "until differently ordered by the court." The order con tained the reservation, however, that supplemental orders might be issued against other persons, should subse quent events demand such, action. Judge McPherson said that he did not include Attorney-General Major and the members of the State Railroad and Warehouse Commission in the injunction, because they had stated un der oath that they had not Inspired or encouraged the St. Louis suit and did not Intend to have anything to do with it In the future. Judge McPherson based his decision today upon the belief that the pur pose of the Et. Louis suit was to re litigate the questions settled by htm in his final decree upon the Missouri rate cases Issued March 8, 1909. "That decree is the law until It is reversed,"" said he, "and it must stand ,.... t ' " t j . i t J W i t t - - '-v J I Judge Smith McPherson. of United States Court, Threatened With Im peachment. - until It Is reversed by an appellate court. It must not be trampled upon either." Judge McPherson referred to the quo warranto suit field In the State Supreme Court asking that . the rail roads be ousted from the state, and said: "This court Is entirely willing to al low the Supreme Court to dispose of that case." EASTERN MAN TO CHINA EVERY PROMINENT "WESTERN MAN HAS SPOKEN OUT. Chinese Gorfrnment Did Not Object to Fulton, but - Trouble Awaited Him. ORBGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington. April 23. The probabilities are that the new minister to China to suc ceed Minister Rockhlll will not be ap pointed from any Pacific Coast or Rocky Mountain state. It is true that this appointment was tendered to Senafbr Fulton of Oregon and declined, and It Is also true that before the ten der was made the Chinese government was asked whether it would "object to Mr. Fulton as minister. Word came back that the appointment would be entirely satisfactory to that govern ment, but at the same time Individual Chinese, residing In this country, did enter protest aga'nst the appointment because Mr. Fulton, during his public career In Oregon, had declared in fa vor of the policy of Chinese exclusion. .While It Is true that Mr. Fulton"s re marks were not considered offensive by the Chinese government, Chinese In this country, being more intimately ac quainted with Mr. Fulton's views, took umbrage at his rpeeches and. bad Mr. Fulton gone to Pekin as minister, re ports of his antl-Chtnese attitude would have reached the Flowery Kingdom and would have resulted In more or less hostility towards him on the part of the Chinese people, more particularly the masses than officials. - " The administration now realises that any public man from the far West who has .been at all prominent would probably be open to the same objec tion on the part of the Chinese, be cause of the prevalent antl-Chlnese sentiment throughout that section. In the East or Middle West,. however, Chi nese immigration Is not a material is sue, and public men of that section can readily be' found who have never de livered themselves of utterances that could be construed as offensive to the Chinese government or to Chinese peo ple Individually. Therefore some man from that section is likely to succeed Minister Rockhlll. Seamen's Concert Tonight. The regular Friday concert will be given this evening at the Seamen's Friend So ciety.

NAME TAGQMA MAN Taft Expected to - Appoint Shackleford Judge. WAS HIS SECOND CHOICE V President Finds Man Qualified and All Delegation Favor Him Ex cept Piles Selection Is , Xonpolitical. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, May 6. Members of the Wash ington Congressional delegation expect the President within a few days to send to the Senate the nomination of John A. Shackleford, of Tacoma, as the second Federal Judge offthe Western Washing ton District. It is learned that the President has already made Inquiry into Mr. Shackleford's qualifications, and it is understood he is satisfied with the result. Members of' the delegation who .have been asked about Mr. Shackleford have all reported that he Is thoroughly com petent to go upon the Federal bench. It Is reported that after this Judgeship had been tendered to EL C. Hughes, of Seattle, the President remarked to one of his callers that If Mr. Hughes de clined, he believed he would nominate Mr. Shackleford. While all members of the delegation, except Senator Piles, are satisfied with Mr. Shackleford"s selection, none of them indorsed him prior to the time they were questioned by the Presi dent. His appointment, . if made, will therefore be purely non-political. TAFT MAY VISIT IDAHO SOON Promises, Borah In Case He Makes Trip to Coast. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, May 6.
