BOOTH TO SIT IN COURT
Periston In His Favor Considered
Significant Defendant's Coun
sel Argues at Length Senate
Decides Xo Night Sessions.
OtYMFIA. "Wash.. Aug. li (Staff Cor
respondence.) The challenges of J. H.
Bchlvely to the qualifications of 16 mem
bers of the Senate to sit as Judges In the
Impeachment court now trying him for
high crimes, misdemeanors and malfeas
ance as Insurance Commissioner, were
riled In the Senate today. There were IS
rolls called on these challenges, one eacn
Jnr 13 Senators and two each for Senators
Allen. Flshback and Paulhamus, against
whom challenges on two separate grounds
were made.
On the question of seating the Senators,
the roll calls ranged from 11 negatives to
none at all, the greatest number showing
opposition to the retention of Senator
Allen, who Is chairman of the Investigat
ing committee which preferred written
charges against Schlvely to the Governor
and recommended his removal by Im
peachment or abolishment of the office.
Loses on Every Hand.
In addition to these roll calls, another
was taken on the qualifications of Sena
tor Booth, of King, who this morning
asked to be excused from sitting because
lie had already made up his own mind
that Schlvely should be removed from
office. With his own vote Booth re
ceived only six In behalf of his request.
' Not only did the day's proceedings go
against Schlvely In these particulars, but
also In the matter of his demurrer to
article 25 of the impeachment charges,
which Is based on the perjury Indictment
against the Insurance Commissioner now
pending In the Superior Court of Spokane
County, this demurrer was overruled by
Senator Presby presiding, after both sides
had argued at some length on the Issue,
and there was no appeal from the de
cision of the chair.
Article 38 Is considered the most Impor
tant of any of the S articles In the im
peachment charges. The perjury charges
alleged to have been committed by Schlve
ly occurred In his testimony before the
Spokane grand Jury last March In the
Pacific Livestock Association probe.
This article is not opened to the objec
tion by the defense that the statute of
limitations has run against It, or that the
crime charged was committed while
fk-hlvely was a deputy and not a state
efficer. Attempts will be made to invoke
the statute of limitations against all but
about a half dosen articles, while every
article, with fhe exception of numbers 25
and 36. deal with the conduct of Schlvely
as a deputy. Article 36 charges him only
with neglect of duties since taking office
as Insurance Commissioner. January 13.
Vote on Booth Significant.
The vote on the request of Senator
Sooth that he be excused Is taken gen
erally as the most- Indicative of any ex
pression given today of the present
eentlment of the members of the Sen
ate toward the accused Insurance
Commissioner. In connection therewith,
today, for the first time, attention was
called fo a comma In the constitutional
provision relating to Impeachment, that
may have an important bearing on the
final result.
Booth's written request that he be ex
cused wss followed by a motion by
Falconer, seconded by Bryan, that It be
the sense of the Senate that Booth should
resign as a member of the Senate. At
Presby's suggestion, however. Falconer
withdrew the motion until Booth could be
heard, and it was after considerable argu
ment as to procedure that a vote was
Anally taken, denying Booth the right te
retire from the court of Impeachment
Comma Raises Fine Point.
Booth then asked for a half hour In
which to consider his further action. On
his return to the Senate chamber he an
nounced his readiness to take the oath
as a member of the court of Impeach
ment, he not having been present during
previous proceedings. Booth then called
attention to the comma In the constitu
tion. The constitution provides that a
state officer may be impeached "for high
crimes and misdemeanors, or malfeasance
In office."
"I have compared the printed copy of
the constitution with the original in the
office of the Secretary of State." said
Booth, "and have ascertained that the
comma after the word misdemeanors ap
pears In the original, i am now con
vinced that this Senate can Impeach
Schlvely for offenses committed when
he was not a state officer. If the comma
were absent we could Impeach only for
crimes or misdemeanors committed In
office. Under the circumstances I am
prepared to take the oath."
Those who had voted to excuse Booth
were Booth HuxtaMe. Presby, Smith,
Williams and Ruth.
It was the middle of the afternoon be-

SPOKANE, Aug. 12. Two thousand
names were drawn today for the Flathead
Indian Rerervatlonf and Joseph Furay. of
Warsaw, Ind., was the winner of the

day there was about the same number
around the drawing stand, many coming
and going.
The weather was cool and the sky over
cast at the beginning, but It soon be
came extremely hot.
Cheers Greet Winner.
Judge Witten, superintendent of the
opening, made a brief address at the out
set, explanatory of the method to be pur
sued In the drawing of names, his speech
being practically a duplicate of that at
the opening of "the Coeur d'Alene draw
ing on Monday last.
The 81,863 applications, each In a buff
envelope, had been dumped upon the plat
form, and Judge Witten announced that
2000 would be drawn today, 2000 to 2500

little Miss Donlan at 10:30, and the an
nouncement of the name of the winner
was greeted with a cheer.

functory. A striking oath was found in

Goliath to shame by measuring 63 feet

Throw Down Gauntlet
to Grainhandlers.
WAGES ARE FIXED AT $3 A DAY
Serious Situation on Qocks Is
Brought to Crisis.
WHEAT DIVERTED TO SOUND
Refusal of Cnlon to Enter Into an
Agreement With Exporters the
Cause Immense Cost 'o
Port Likely to Ensue.
The three big local grain exporting
houses of Kerr, Gifford & Co., the Port
land Flouring Mills Company and Bal
four, Guthrie & Co. will this morning
put Into effect a sweeping order declaring
an open shop on all grainhandling work
at their various docks, on the flat wage
scale of $3 for a ten-hour day.
This action marks the crisis of trouble
that has been brewing between the ship
pers and members of the Grainhandlers'
Union since last April. It Is the direct
result of the refusal of the grainhandlers
to sign a contract for one year at 35
cents an hour and 60 cents an hour over
time after ten hours' work. This scale
prevailed during the season which ended
in April, and is 5 cents an hour higher
than is paid for loading ships on Puget
Sound.
Men Refuse to State Position.
All efforts on the part of the exporters
to get the union to renew this contract
proved fruitless and yesterday a final
meeting of representatives of the ex
porters and grainhandlers was held to
settle the matter definitely one way or
the other. The officers of the union
again refused to sign. They would not
state their position as to the wages they
wanted at all.7 further than to say that
at present they could not get together
enough members of their union to Justify
them in signing up for 35 cents.
Rather than run the risk of having the
union demand 40 cents an hour and per- ,
haps strike for it, tying up all shipping
operations after the wheat season is in
full swing, the exporters broke off nego
tiations with the union and declared an
open shop on the same wage scale of 30
cents an hour as is paid on Puget Sound.
The rupture between the exporters and
the union is complete. The exporters
will from today refuse to recognize the
union in any way, or to enter into nego
tiations with it. More than that, men
who are known to be members of the
union will not be allowed to work on the
docks. All grain that Is handled will be
handled by nonunion labor.
" In the Grainhandlers' Union at present
are about 250 members who will be af
fected by this order, but this Is not all.
