IN STRIKE RIOTS
Five Hundred Militant Wives of
Press Steel Car Company's
Men Attack Restaurant.
TROOPS BEAT THEM BACK
Attempt to Burn Company's Shop la
Also Mad and Threats of
Dynamite Frighten Fer-ry-Boat
Men.
PITTSBURG. Aug-. . Five hundred
women took a hand today In the agita
tion resulting from the Pressed Steel Car
Company strike. After tossing paving
tones at the company's property, the
women went after the company's restau
rant A number of the company's office
employes, who were eating, ducked under
chairs, tables and lunch counters when
bricks and stones came flying through
the window.
The clerks could not be persuaded to
face the female mob until the state troops
got into the fray. The troopers rode
horses- The soldiers could not scare the
women, however, and had to hammer
some of them on the heads with riot clubs
before they could be subdued.
A supposed attempt to burn the com
pany's plant early today caused some ex
citement. Later some of the strikers ob
jected strongly fo a squad of new work
men marching into the plant. Shots were
fired, but no one was injured.
As 140 new men were being taken
Into the Pressed Steel Car Company's
mill today, a large crowd of men and
women gathered and half a dozen shots
were fired Into the air by strike sym
pathizers before the state constabulary
charred into the crowd.
Hearing that strike sympathizers had
threatened to dynamite the ferry steamer
H. H. Pfiel. used to carry employes to
the works, the crew of the boat quit to
day rather than take the risk of an ex
plosion. WHAT ASTRONOMY ISN'T

Going up In a balloon with telescopes

The probability of the destruction of the
earth by comets. This Is characterized
as 'pure idiocy."
Talks of comets plunging Into the sun

to burn up the earth. More "idiocy."
Talk of satellites of the moon. Ludi

HARRIMAN DEAL STILL ON
rairell Denies Report Trains Will
Not Run to Seattle.
SPOKANE. Aug. 20. (Special.) J. P.
Farreil, president of the Oregon & Wash
lngton Railroad and E. H. Harrlman's
personal representative, gave out an In
terview this evening In which he branded
as absurd the report emanating from
Portland that the Union Pacific would
not run trains to Seattle.
Howard Elliott, president of the North
em Pacific, expressed himself similarly,
saying that Inasmuch as the Union Pa
cific had actually acquired an interest in
the Northern Pacific's tracks from Port
land to Seattle, it was Inconceivable thai
It would not use them.
"The papers have been signed and are
actually in the malls." said Mr. Farreil.
"The deal la closed and is highly pleas
Ins; to both roads. We expected to be
operating Union Pacific trains into Se
attle by this time, and will surely do so
early in September. It is possible the re
port that the Union Pacific had aban
doned its purpose to enter this city Is
the result of being confused with the an
nouncement that the Harriman line would
not enter Lewiston over the Northern Pa
cific" SAYS PROHIBITION WINS
Chairman of Drys Gives Figures to
Show Less Liquor Used.
CHICAGO. Aug. 20. Statistics compiled
by National Chairman Jones, of the Pro
hibition party, from an advance' report of
the United States Internal Revenue Bu
reau, for the fiscal year 1309. are put
forth as a counter to assertions of the
Texas Brewers" Association that prohibi
tion never prohibits and that more liquor
Is sold in dry than in wet territory.
The statement shows that In four years
ending June 30. 1909. internal revenue
reports sales of spirits and fermented
liquors fell short of estimates 3S9.0S7.333
gallons. There Is a decrease in liquor
production of 1908 and 1909 from 1907 of
14.667.329 gallons of whisky and 2.142.614
barrels of beer, which Is a decrease of
1.045. OS". 6S5 drinks. On an average of
four drinks a day, this is said to mean
that 1.406.09 men have ceased to patronize
saloons since June 30, 1907.

POLICE CHANGE SURPRISES
Detective B. F. Smith to Don Uni
form, Endicott to Become Sleuth.
Chief of Police Cox will make a
change In the city detective department
WOMEN.TAK
i
tonight. Detective-Sergeant B. F.
Smith, who has been connected with
the plain-clothes staff of the police for
a long time, will be transferred to uni
form duty. His place among the detec
tives will be taken by Sergeant D. En
dicott, who has hitherto been stationed
on the East Side on the first night re
lief under Captain Moore. Sergeant
Smith will be assigned to the place va
cated by Sergeant Endicott.
The transfer, has been made princi
pally on account of the desire expressed
by Sergeant Smith to go back to patrol
duty. He was transferred to the de
tective staff about two years ago, and
was promoted to the grade of sergeant
shortly afterwards for meritorious
work. He has long held the reputation
of being an energetic worker. A few
weeks ago he was removed from super
vision over the pawnshops for a reason
unexplained by the department head,
and since that time rumor intimated
that Smith was disastisned with his po
sition on the detective staff.
The announcement that his position
In the secret service branch of the de
partment will be filled by Sergeant En
dicott has caused great surprise in
police circles. Sergeant Endicott has
been In the department for many years,
serving as patrolman and Jailer, and
several months ago was appointed ser
geant, but he was not mentioned before
as a possible candidate for detective
work. The advancement of Sergeant
Endicott over Sergeants Keller, Kien
len. Goltz and Reilly, whose records
have been regarded as more brilliant. Is
the topic of much gossip among the
rank and file of the department.

SEATTLE, Aug. 20. That K. A. Bal
linger. Secretary of the Interior, may not
be present at the National Conservation
Congress, which convenes here next
Thursday, became known tonight when

tary Ballinger omitted. Officers of the
Washington Conservation Association
who are engineering the congress admit
that there Is little probability of Secre-
tarv Ballinger appearing.
Immediately before leaving Seattle for
Spokane, where he spoke before the Na
tional Irrigation 'Congress, Secretary
Ballinger notified the officers of the Con
servation that he would be unable to re
turn to Seattle In time to participate In
the congress. The officers of the asso
ciation kept this quiet, hoping that he
would change his mind. Since then no
word has been .received from Mr. Bal
linger, but his friends have said that
they felt sure he would be on hand.
Having heard nothing from Secretary
Ballinger, the executive board today
drew up the programme for the congress,
omitting his name.
Chief Forester Pinchot Is down on the
programme for the morning of the second
day, his subject being "Principles of Con
servation." Besides Mr. Pinchot, other prominent
speakers will appear, among them being:
A. B. Farquhar, of Pennsylvania; Airs.

MRS. MAUDE JOHXSOX TELLS
LIFE HISTORY.
Declares Her Many Damage Suits
Have Been Bona Fide Sprains
Her Ankle In Jail.
SEATTLE. Wash., Aug. 20. (Special.)
One of the few survivors of the Va
lencia steamship disaster, nose broken,
ribs fractured, teeth knocked out, ankle
broken, back sprained, chest crushed,
arm broken, nervous system shattered,
right eye badly damaged, ankle
sprained and now suffering a fibroid
tumor, Mrs. Maude Johnson, who was
brought here yesterday from Oakland,
charged with being queen of damage
suit fakers, declares her claims have
been bona fide and that her total col
lections through personal Injury suits
have been but $2875.
From the occasion In early girlhood,
when she fell from a wagon tongue on
her father's farm near Salem and broke
her nose, until she wrenched her ankle
badly in the County Jail two hours after
reaching Seattle, she claims her career
has been characterized by painful acci
dents. She contemplates a damage suit
against the county as soon as she re
gains her liberty as a result of the ac
cident in the jail. En route from Oak
land, a 200-pound woman stepped on her
foot, causing a blood clot to settle on
the toes and a physician says the nail
will come off. He fears blood poisoning,
which would eventuate in another dam
age suit.
Mrs. Johnson Is charged with having
mulcted the Seattle Electric company
out of- W00- by simulating a fall from a
streetcar and falsely representing that
she was injured. After effecting the
cash settlement for this accident she
started for Portland. Several months
ago. while on her way to Yacolt she lost
some teeth and sprained her ankle. She
secured a settlement from the railroad for
$1250. In more than a dozen accidents In
Missouri and Coast cities where she has
operated Bhe is alleged to have collected
many thousand dollars through bogus
damage claims. t

TO TELL ALL
CLERK TIRED OF BEING "GOAT"
IN HEINZE SWINDLE.
Birmingham Says He Only Obeyed
Orders of Superiors Clark
Is ex-Convict.
NEW YORK. Aug. 20. Sterling Birm
ingham, the dismissed loan clerk of the
Windsor Trust Company, said today,
through his counsel, that he was "tired
of being made the goat." An Investiga
tion was what he would most welcome.
It would give him the chance to show
that throughout his connection with the
loan of $50,000 to M. M. Joyce, a broker
for F. A. Heinze, he had acted under
orders from hls superiors.
Birmingham was arraigned in Police
Court today, charged with , a misde
meanor in accepting $250 as a fee for
his services In pushing the loan through.
Three other men who are under indict
ment appeared before Judge Mulqueen
today Charles Katz. president of the
Eastern Brewing Company; A. D. 3.
Adams, of Boston, and Walter L. Clark,
a note broker.
In Clark's case the records of the
Court of General Sessions, which show
that he has been previously indicted for
forgery and has "done time" In Elmlra,
were produced before the grand Jury.
The present attitude of the District
Attorney's office is that nothing criminal
has been proved against the trust com
pany or Its officers.

HAWLEY TO BE BUSY
Oregon Man to Be on Three
Important Committees.
GOOD 'PLACES GIVEN HIM
Appalachian Forest Reserve Meas
ure and Child Labor Question
Among Important Legislation
He Will Have Hand In.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Aug. 20. As a member of three
active committees agriculture, claims
and labor Representative Hawley will
have his hands full during the two reg
ular sessions of the 61st Congress. And
it was largely uecause he devotes him
self diligently to his committee work
that he was placed on these three com
mutes. The committee on agriculture, in ad
dition to framing the agricultural ap
propriation bill, will again be called
upon to wrestle with the Appalachian
forest reserve bill, one of the most
troublesome pieces of legislation com
ing over from the last Congress. This
bill, starting as a simple measure pro
viding for the purchase by the Gov
ernment of the Appalachian watershed,
has been enlarged from time to time
until today it is a measure which might
better be termed "a bill to create for
est reserves in all states of the Union."
That, in effect, is what It is. ' v
Appalachian Bill Left,
In the last Congress the committee on
agriculture, after many hearings and
much deliberation, made a divided re
port on this bill, some favoring it in
its entirety, others favoring It in part,
and still others opposed to it In toto.
When its ramifications were laid bare
and it was found to be a bill contem
plating the expenditure of billions upon
billions of dollars out of the Federal
Treasury for the purchase and reforest
ing of lands in practically every state
from- Maine to California, many men
previously in favor of creation of the
Appalachian forest reserve were turned
against the- measure. Other members
of the committee have always opposed
the 'creation of such a reserve by the
Federal Government, maintaining that
the several states traversed by the Ap
palachian range should buy up and
control such lands as might be needed
for forestry use, and for the conser
vation of water supply.
Committee Has Its Own Ideas.
The committee on agriculture, as now
constituted, will not report such a bill
as is asked for by the Forest Service.
It will not adopt the policy of appro
priating unlimited money to buy up all
over the country forest lands, or what
once were forest lands, and placing
such vast areas under the control and
administration of the Forest Service.
If anything is done, the committee will
report a bill for the creation, by Fed
eral aid, of forest reserves In the Ap
palachian and White Mountains, but
any such reserves will be of modest
proportions, and stipulation will be
made that excessive prices shall not
be paid for lands acquired by the Gov
ernment. On this bill Mr. Hawley has always
maintained a conservative attitude, and
it was because of his conservatism and
because of his antagonism to radical
legislation that the Speaker Insisted
upon his remaining on the committee
on agriculture.
Civil War Claim May dome.
Unless the demand for economy pre
vents the passage of an omnibus claims
bill next Winter, Mr. Hawley, as a
member of the claims committee, will
be in a position to have Oregon's Civil
War claim incorporated in the general
measure. That is the only means by
which this claim can be paid. A sep
arate bill authorizing the payment of
the claim cannot pass Congress, thougn
it is customary, before an omnibus bill
is framed, to introduce Individual bills
authorizing the payment of such claims.
The omnibus bill is in reality a con
solidation of these individual measures.
Without the individual bills the claims
committee has no basis for action. That
was the object of the bill introduced by
Mr. Hawley at the special session. He
never anticipated that it would pass as
a separate measure,-but merely intend
ed to whip into shape the provision
which he hopes later to have incor
porated in the omnibus bllL
Child Labor to Come Up.
When Congress reassembles in De
cember a report will be submitted on
the Investigations made during the past
year by the Department of Commerce
and Labor Into the employment of
women and children in factories and In
other lines of industry in the United
States. The findings of the department
will undoubtedly lead to the introduc
tion of all manner of bills affecting
child labor, and these bills will proba
bly go to the committee on labor.
So strong will be the demand for leg
islation that this committee will be
compelled to go to the bottom of the
subject to determine wehther or not the
Federal Government by law can under
take to regulate the employment of
children and women in various indus
trial pursuits. This Is a difficult prob
lem, and if it shall be held that Con
gress has the authority to act, it must
then be determined now oeai me uo
sired results can be attained. As a
member of the labor committee Mr.
Hawley will be compelled to devote
much time and study to the child-labor
problem, as well as to all other legis
lation proposed in the Interest of the
laboring classes or tne unnea oiaies.
