Keller 'Workers Clear Away Debris
and American Warships Hurry
Food and Medicine Village
of Cat Is Destroyed.
SAX JOSE. C. R-, May 9. More than
1000 dead have been taken from the ruins
of Cartago. Xo one is allowed within
the precincts of the devastated city ex
cept the Red Cross workers, relief work
ers and volunteers employed in clearing
away the debris, removing the bodies
and dynamiting the dangerous buildings.
Most of the survivors of the earthquake
are now at San Jose. Medicine and food
from the American warships are being
rushed from Port Linion, but the condi
tion of those who still remain around the
city is such that extraordinary measures
must be taken to provide assistance and
shelter for them,
. Even in San Jose thi residents for the
most part are living in tents and wooden
structures, fearing to occupy their homes,
as the earth tremors continue.
No living person has been taken from
the ruins in the last two days and, al
though a thousand dead have been re
moved, it is known that there are many
still beneath the broken walls and tim
bers. Because of general panic, the
various organizations engaged in the
work of relief find it. difficult to reach
all. Many survivors are still hungry and
helpless.
The village of Cat is reported totally
destroyed and the village of Entro Rios
partially destroyed.
Mexico has contributed a large sum of
money to aid the victims, and contribu
tions are coming in from other sources.
The nature of the earthquake that de
stroyed Cartago is now being discussed,
and the general testimony of those who
suffered from it goes to show that it
resembled an explosion more than the
ordinary seismic movement, which has
been felt throughout the Republic during
the last two or three weeks.
RIVER WILL BE CHANGED
Work Is Expected to Drain Valuable
Farming Lands.
KLAMATH FALLS. Or., May 9.
Special.) The work of locating a
rhannel through which Lost River will
be turned from Its present course Into
the Klamath River has been com
menced by the surveyors of the Recla
mation Service.
When the Government first laid out
its plans for the irrigation of the
Klamath country and reclaiming the
thousands of acres of tule land along
the borders of lakes In this vicinity,
plans were laid for cutting Lost River
off from feeding' Tule Lake. Lost
River is the only apparent feeder for
this lake, which covers some 65,000
acres of the Tule Lake Valley in the
Southern end of this county and North
ern Modoc County in California. It is
ihoxisrht that without the river to feed
It the lake will evaporate to such a
large extent that a large area of this
land, considered the best farm land,
will be drained.
The plan is to take Lost River from
its channel near what is known as
Lost River Gap. By cutting a course
through the valley for a distance of
about six miles, the river will run into
'.he Klamath about eight miles below
this city.

HAMERSLEY WILL
FIGHT TO REOPEN
Legal Struggle, Arrested 25
Years Ago, Soon to Be
Waged Again.
MANY LAWYERS ENGAGED
Death of Duchess of Marlborough
Makes Possible Renewal of Fight. '
Two Boys and Girl Central
Figures in Big Struggle.
NTSW YORK, May 9. (Special.)
Twenty-three of the most prominent
legal firms of this city are awaiting the
opening of the famous Hamersley will
contest, which raged more than 25
years ago for a fortune of about $7,
00,000. This fortune now is said to
have increased to about $15,000,000,
under the handling of the Duchess of
Marlborough, whose death makes pos
sible the reopenlijg of the fight.
The central figures of this fight are
two little hoys. Louts Gordon Ham
ersley and William peresford, the for
mer living in this country and the lat
ter in England. With his sister, Kath
erine Livingston Hamersley, Louis Gor
don Hamersley has been brought up
under the care of a nurse, Mrs. D. C.
Lowrie.
During the life of the Duchess of
Marlborough an agreement signed
when the former contest was settled,
prevented the matter being reopened.
Now that she is dead, the lawyers for
little William Beresford. who was her
son, born late in life, have asked for
an accounting of the sums supposed to
have accrued to his benefit.
This was the chance for the 71 mem
bers of the house of Mason and the
house of Hamersley to make their
claims again for a 'share in the Ham
ersley millions. The claimants repre
sent some of the best-known social
families in New York, among them the
Cuttings, Masons, Posts, Isellns, Wiss
mans. Carneses, Jameses, Langdons,
Blagdons and Fearings. The legal ar
ray will be the largest and s'trongest
ever seen at one trial.
The Duchess of Marlborough had
married first, Louis C. Hamersley, -who,
when he died, left the will that Is the
cause of all the trouble. In this was a
clause providing that his "dear wife"
should have the use of the fortune dur
ing her life. Later she married the
Duke of Marlborough and still later
Colonel Sir William Beresford.
That same will aforementioned pro
vided that In'case Louis Hamersley left
no male issue the fortune should revert
to the children of his cousin, J. Hooker
Hamersley. Louis Gordon and Kath
erine Hamersley are children of his by
a later marriage. They are fighting
for the fortune, therefore, that the lit
tle English boy, William Beresford, is
now enjoying.
To have the will set aside was no
thought of the English lawyers who
have asked for an accounting. The
American claimants, however, with the
aid of the legal talent they have em
ployed, think they see a chance, and
the point they raise is this: An at
tempt to suspend the power of aliena
tion beyond two lives is improper and
illegal under the laws of New York.
The claimants wMl seek to show that
at no time was the will valid.
There are many titles among the
claimants. Mason Carnes, a claimant,
married the Countess de Bylandt, who
died. The Count and Countess du
Porzie de Rodellac both appear. The
Count de Rodellac married a daughter
of Mary Jones de Trobriand. The W.
R. Young who appears in the list of
claimants is the United States District
Attorney for Queens County. He will
appear for himself in the case.
rect nominations for New York State
promises to break in the State Legis
lature this week and the outcome Is
one of doubt and uncertainty. The
few preliminary skirmishes 'which
have marked the session thus far have
failed to disclose the strength of the
followers of the various primary meas
ures under consideration and the sud
den appearance of a so-called com
promise bill has only added to the
perplexities of the situation.
Four hbstile armies are now en
camped at the capital waiting for the
fray. The supporters of the policies
of Governor Hughes are rallying
around the standard of the Hinman
Green direct nominations bill; the Re
publican "organization" members are
preparing to risk their political lives
for the "Mead-Philltps" measure,
drafted by a committee which, inves
tigated the direct primary system In
several states; the Democrats are sup
porting the Democratic League bill,
and stragglers from the rival camps
are backing the "Cobb compromise"
bill, which abolishes intermediate con
ventions and provides for the nomina
tion of State Senators and Assembly
men at the primaries.

OREGON CITY, Or., May 9. (Spe

convene in the Courthouse tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock. The leading
state officers and executive commit
tee, together with a few of the elected
representatives, arrived here today and
took under consideration a few im
portant matters which will come up
for action during the session.
A new set of state officers will be
elected on Wednesday afternoon and
there Is already In evidence the usual
dignified efforts at campaigning for
favorite candidates- For master of the
State Grange the leading candidates
are J. J. Johnson, of Portland; Eugene
D. Palmer, of Portland, and the In
cumbent, Austin T. Buxton, of Forest
Grove. For overseer, the next highest
office, the aspirants are J. D. Chit
wood, of Clackamas County, and FVed
H. Crane, of Multnomah. E. C. Birt
ner, of Eastern Oregon, is spoken of
as the successor of the late Father
Eaton, who served for many years as
chaplain. The office of state lecturer
Is a free-for-all, as the present holder
of the position, J. J. Johnson, declines
again to accept the office. The secre
tary, Mrs. Mary S. Howard, will un
doubtedly be re-elected unless she is
promoted to a higher place.
Concerning public legislation, there
is not much known. The . promoters
of initiative and referendum measures
are keeping their ideas to themselves
until the proper time comes, when the
Grange will take- action as it sees fit.
Many prominent men of the state
are expected to be present, among
them President Campbell, of the State

showing that the finances of the Helnze
United Copper Company were in better
shape than appeared from his descrip
tion of its merry-go-round method of
making dividend payments.
The attorney objected to a reference
made by Fernsler to the Morse case as
an attempt to influence the jury and
axed Fernsler with giving out colored
statements about the Helnze case to
the newspapers. Fernsler acknowl
edged having told the newspaper men
that the Heinzes had but J2.000.000 with
which to pay $8,000,000 in dividends
from 1902 to 1908. Fernsler said it so
appeared from the books. He admitted
he had not seen the original books of
the Montana Ore Purchasing Company
In Butte. ,
In response to one question, Mr.
Stanchfield got an answer he apparent
ly did not expect.
"You drew this chart to show the
United Copper Company was an empty
shell that couldn't pay its dividends?"
he asked.'
"It couldn't pay" its dividends," re
torted Fernsler.
"But they had ample funds for the
AiiRust and succeeding dividends?"
continued Mr. Stanchfield.
"Yes, by reducing their assets," re
plied Fernsler.
