Senate Sustains De
murrer to Article 1.
14 OTHER COUNTS MAY FALL
Presby's Ruling Upheld by
Vote of 21 to 18.
CHARGES NOT SPECIFIC
Hons Slay File Amended Complaint
but Tliis Point Xot Definitely Set
tledWay Now Open for
Weeks of Arguments.
OLTMPIA. Wash., Aug. IS. (Staff Cor
reapondence.) Technical objections to
the wording of the first article of the Im
peachment charges against J. H. Schlve
1 Insurance Commissioner, won over a
majority of the Senate today, and a de
murrer to the article was sustained by a
vote of 21 to 18. With Article 1. 1! and
possibly 14 other counts In the Indictment
are likely to fall, as the wording in the
other Is so similar to that of Article 1
that there is good ground for believing
the Senate will sustain demurrers to them
also.
If action goes that far, thus will one
half of the 2S counts In the Impeach
ment articles fail unless It shall be ruled
that the House has the right to present
amended articles covering the same
charges and decides to do so. The House
In preferring Impeachment charges re
served to Itself the right to amend them
at any time, but the Board of Impeach
ment managers has reached the conclu
sion and has so announced that the
House has not the power to delegate the
amending power to the board. It must
adopt amended articles as a House or
not at all.
Extended Arguments Expected.
The House has adjourned until Monday
afternoon and If" amended articles' are
filed, such action cannot be accomplished
before Tuesday at the earliest.
In the meantime the Senate will listen
to arguments on the demurrers to the
other articles, and the way seems open
for expending probably a week In argu
ment before the taking of testimony can
be commenced. If a dozen new articles
are formulated, then new demurrers and
further extended arguments are to be ex
pected, leading no one knows to what
length of time.
It Is conjectured that Bchtvely's attor
ney will not resist any assumption by
the House of authority to amend the
articles, by adding new charges, but will
resist amendments making more specific
charges than are In the original articles.
Collections Xot In Excess.
Beginning late yesterday afternoon the
arguments on Article 1 were extended
during the greater part of today, L. O.
Meigs, of the Impeachment Board, and
Attorney-General Bell replying at length
to Bchlrely's attorney, George C. Israel.
The article stricken charges that In 1905
Bchlvely collected from F. J. Martin, or
Seattle, the sum of 3235 each tor the ad
mission of seven Insurance companies to
do business In this state, and that the
stats received only 336 for each company.
It was the contention of Attorney Israel,
which Is undisputed, that the law permits
the Insurance Commissioner to collect In
addition to the entrance fee of 135 from
every company admitted the actual cost
of making an examination of Its assets.
The objection to the Article 1 was that
It did not charge that Schlvely did not
make an examination of each of the
specified companies, or that the fees col
lected were In excess of his actual ex
penses if he did make the examination.
Charges Xot Definite.
It Is practically conceded that under
tha rules of procedure In criminal courts
an information not more definite In Its
statement of facta would not constitute
a cause of action. The reply of the Im
peachment managers was that the Im
peachment court was not a criminal court
end that the rules of criminal procedure
were not strictly applicable in ruling on
Demurrers. Mr. Meigs specified 13 par
ticulars in which Impeachment proceed
ings differ from procedure In a court at
law. The ruling that sustained the de
murrer wa first announced by Senator
PTesby.' presiding, and thereafter sub
mitted without formal appeal to the Sen
ate today. In announcing his ruling.
Presby declared that the law gave
6chively the right to collect expenses of
examination.
"The article." said Chairman Presby,
"does not allege that he charged $1 more
Uian the expense of examination.
Preeby Makes Ruling.
"It does not allege that he did not
examine these companies: It does not
allege that, he did not furnish them
with an Itemized list of expenditures,
as required by law, and I know of no
law making It an offense In this state
for an officer to collect legal fees in
advance.

Mrs. Morton Imagines She Wedded
Young Man Who Placed Her
In Sanitarium.
LOS ANGELES. Aug. 13. (Special. )
Mystery surrounding Mrs. Edwin N. Mor
ton, wife of a wealthy Guadalajara
physician, remained unsolved at the Court
House today, when Judge Leon F. Moss,
with the advice of two Los Angeles med
ical experts, committed Mrs. Morton to
the Southern California State Hospital
for the Insane at Patton.
H. R. Burroughs, the young man who
admitted having placed Mrs. Morton in
a private sanitarium on East Sixth street,
followed her and the officers and nurses
from the Court House to the Sheriff's
office and sought to accompany her to
the County Hospital, where she has been
under arrest during the last lew oajs.
Burroughs was subpenaed into court
by Judge Moss In consequence of Mrs.
Morton's statement that she had gone
through a marriage ceremony, real or
fictitious, with Burroughs. He denied
that anything of the kind had taken
place. Mrs. Morton's story about the
marriage was hazy. She said she thought
it was a man disguised as a priest who
pretended to marry them.
IDAHO OFFERS TRAGEDY
Mother and Son Arrested on Charge
of Murder.
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho, Aug. 13. Mrs.
Augustine Pierre and her son Edward
are under arrest on a charge of having
murdered Gustave Pierre.- the husband
and father, at Mud Lake, In Fremont
County. A younger son, Paul, was ar
rested a few days ago.
"The Plerres owned a 330-care tract of
land near Mud Lake. A few weeks ago
Mrs. Pierre and her eldest son had the
father arrested on a charge of Insanity.
The county authorities liberated, him.
Soon afterward a neighbor noticed the
man's absence from home and caused the
arrest of Paul Pierre on suspicion.
Paul admitted that he shot his father
twice after the father had threatened to
kill the entire family.
NAVAL SCORE IS ALL OVER
Beresford's Charges Found Ground
less by Defense Committee.
LONDON, Aug. 13. The Imperial de
fense subcommittee which was appointed
to investigate the recent criticisms made
by Admiral Lord Charles Beresford of
the state of the navy, has Issued its re
port. It practically exonerates the Ad
miralty of Admiral Beresford's charge of
having endangered the country by the
unwise organization and distribution of
the fleet, but it finds that both the Ad
miralty and Admiral Beresford ara
blameable for the inharmonious co
operation. Pro-Beresford papers contend that, as
several reforms advocated by Admiral
Beresford have been adopted, his agita
tion was Justified, while the antl-Beres-ford
papers express satisfaction that the
navy scare has been exploded.

requirements at the university because
they took too prominent parts in social
diversions and athletics, but that is a
matter which does not concern myself

"I am not interested In the social or
athletic activities of the young men and

SLEUTHS EYE EVERY MOVE
Laborers Discharged by Twohy Con
tractors Grumble at Treatment
and Are Demanding Back Em
ployment Agent Fees.
BY GEORGE PALMER PUTNAM.
SHANIKO, Or., Aug. 13. (Special.)
There is ample room in the Deschutes
canyon for two railroads; further than
this, each of the roads could be double
tracked as far as topographical conditions
are concerned. So Johnson Porter, of ths
firm of Porter Bros., declared In an inter
view at Shaniko last night. He ridiculed
the statements that have been advanced
to the effect that at certain points In the
canyon the two roads would be forced to
run over the same tracks.
"Such a statement is absurd," said Mr.
Porter. "There Is no place on the entire
route where two roads, and double-track
roads at that, may not be constructed and
very few where such an operation would
entail extraordinary difficulty, as railroad
building is reckoned today."
Twohy Contractor Admits It.
After ' this remark, Mr. Porter called
upon a Twohy subcontractor, who hap
pened to be at the table, for corrobora
tion, and the latter, perhaps a trifle un
willingly, admitted that as far as con
cerned the portions of the canyon he had
seen, the statement was entirely correct.
When asked If there was anything at
present especially active regarding th
work, Mr. Porter laughingly exhibited a
large size package ,of court summonses,
which filled one of his pockets, intimat
ing that just now the lawyers are the
busiest railroad builders. 1
Building Wagon Roads Only.
Construction activity is confined, for
the most part, at least as regards the
Porter camps they alone now being at
work in this vicinity to the construc
tion of a wagon road closely following
the river on tlie west side, beginning at
a point slightly north of the HU1 ranch
and extending some 60 miles up river.
