Representative Link Keruse9 to See State's Attorney, Who Will Retaliate. SPRINGFIELD, ni.. May 12. (Spe cial.) Complications and Important developments In the investigation of the legislative bribery scandal came today as a result of a trip of State's Attorney Burke to 6t. Louis and to Mitchell. 111. Briefly they are: Circuit Attorney Selbert C. Jones of St. Louis raised a question of the val idity of the bribery indictments in Chicago. He promised immunity to any Illinois representatives who desire to confess bribe-taking to the San samon County grand Jury. Representative Link, snubbed 'Pros ecutor Burke by declining to ee him. .Mrs. Link said he was out at home. Burke was so angry that he nsserted that he would have Link be fore the Sangamon County grand iury tomorrow and make him testify. The question of the validity of the Chica go indictments is so important that State's Attorneys Burke and Wayman are reasonably certain to get together and discuss the question. Mr. Jones' view was explained in connection with the request of State's Attorney Burke for immunity for as semblymen who would confess. Mr. Jones asserted that in Missouri there is no legal provision for formal Im munity, as in Illinois, but that he is willing to release all bribe-takers from prosecution in Missouri. It is explained that it would be im possible to get Illinois witnesses to Missouri. DIETRICH EXPLAINS ACT W. AV. r. Condemnation Cases Get Half-and-Half Decision. MOSCOW, Idaho. May 12. (Special.) Whe ruling of Judge De.ltrieh in the Fed eral Court yesterday in the Washington Water Power Company condemnation cases, wherein the power company is peeking to condemn the land of about 300 settlers bordering on Lake Cour d'Alene and river for the purpose of overflowing the lands by reason of its power dam at Post Falls, was partly galnst the company and partly in its favor. Judge Deltrlch when requested to explain tho effect of his ruling stated "I sustained the demurrer to the com plaint on the ground of uncertainties, and especially as to this particular party, because there appears to be involved in it the question of sufficient valuation to give the Federal Court Jurisdiction." The net result of the proceedings so far means that the Washington Water Power Company must amend its bill of complaint, which will be subject to at tack by demurrer again, and the pre liminary rulings mean that the power company can, in certain cases where the Federal court has Jurisdiction, condemn lands for the purpose of manufacturing electricity for sale on the grounds of being a public service corporation.

Sinn Fein Councilrnen at Dublin Vote Against Sympathy Roose velt Will Sit Amotig Monarchs. Seats for Show at Premium. ; LONDON. May 12. From a life of comparative ease and retirement, King George suddenly finds himself one -fof the hardest worked officials of the kingdom. In addition to spending considerable time daily at Buckingham Palace com forting his widowed mother, he has to attend to multifarious duties connected with receiving and entertaining the royal guests and arranging the difficult details of the lying-in-state and the funeral. Seven o'clock each morning finds His Majesty at his desk in Marlborough House to reply to the innumerable mes sages of condolence and to receive his ministers and the officials in charge of the obsequies. Today he had a long spe citl interview with John Burns, president of the local government board. The aft ernoon he spent with the queen mother, and in the evening he went to the sta tion to meet and escort the King of Den mark to Buckingham Palace. Roosevelt to Be Among Kings. Ex-President Roosevelt, who has been named as special envoy of the United States to attend the funeral, will be pre sented to King George soon after his ar rival in London on Monday. Mr. Roose velt, as Special Ambassador, will occupy a place with the visiting monarchs in the funeral procession and also will at tend the burial at Windsor. The lying-in-state involves a great ad dition to the programme for the funeral, which will hardly be completed before Sunday. The procession to Westminster Hall on Tuesday for the lying-in-state will be on almost as great a scale as the funeral procession. The cortege will in clude King Goorge and all foreign sover eigns on horseback. and the queen mother and the royal ladies in carriages. The body will be received by members of the House of Lords and the House of Commons, while the choirs of Westmin ster Abbey and the Chapel Royal and the band of the Coldstream Guards will take part in the musical service. Trafrtc Will Stand Still. When the funeral procession starts on Friday, every tram car in London will come to a standstill for a quarter of an hour. It also is proposed that all public houses in London be closed while the procession is passing. - The Queen Mother has been exceedingly busy since the death of the King. She has received a great number of visitors, who have been privileged to enter the death chamber. These Included, besides most of the members of the Cabinet and the leaders of the opposition, many am bassadors and other officials connected with the court and intimate friends of King Edward. Sinn Fein Refuses Sympathy. A note of discord in the universal mourning comes from Dublin, where, at a meeting of the corporation today, seven members of the Sinn Fein Society voted against the Lord Mayor's resolution to send a message of sympathy and condo lence to the Queen Mother and the royal family.

GREEDGAUSEDOUTBREAK JAPANESE EXPLAIN TROUBLES IX CHAXGSHA, Antl-Manchu Uprising Feared at Pekin, and Leaders of Move ment Are Hunted. VICTORIA, B. C, May 12. Japanese refugees from Changsha who arrived in Japan shortly before the sailing of the steamer Kamakura Mam, say that pecu lation by Chinese officials was the cause of the recent outbreak. Mr. Suzuki, a Japanese postmaster, said that when rice was distributed to the famine sufferers last year, the Governor, Tseng, defrauded the people of 20 per cent of the allowance of grain and many died of starvation. Their bodies were collect ed and buried In one grave and resent ment against the Governor, together with fears of returning famine, resulted In the outbreak, followed by attacks on missions and foreigners. The statement that Governor Tseng had been killed is denied. It is. said he hid himself in a poor Chinese -house end a servant who put on the fugitive Gover nor's clothing was killed in mistake for him. Many of the Japanese refugees had stirring stories of narrow escapes to tell. They got away with only the clothing In which they stood. A widespread anti-dynasttc movement is feared by the Chinese government, the ringleaders having established themselves at Shanghai, Tientsin, Hankow and other places to carry on a propaganda of revo lution. The State Council has voted a large sum of money to trace down the leaders. POLES TO AID FATHERLAND Polish National Congress Will Or ganize Permanently, WASHINGTON. May 13.

MORRIS GUILTY, VERDICT (Continued From First Paga.) knew his fate when the blue-backed verdict made out by Mr. Cameron was handed to the court, for the one made out by his attorneys was of a different color. Judge Gantenbein announced that he would pass sentence at 9:30 o'clock Monday morning. Attorney Seneca Fouts, representing Morris, asked that the time be set for Saturday, but as the law provides for 48 hours between the time the verdict is returned 'and the time of sentence. Judge Gantenbein said he did not care to inject error Into the case by passing sentence Saturday. Mr. Fouts asked that 30 days bo al lowed in which to file a motion for a new trial. Judge Gantenbein con sidered 20 days sufficient. Mr. Fouts then asked whether It would be nec essary to file a new bond, and was told that, if Mr. Cemeron was satisfied with the one already up. a new one would not be required. Arthur L.

You don't believe all the fish stories you hear; "the one that got away" is always a big one; but it's seldom as big a "whopper" as the story he tells about it. You don't believe all the clothes stories you hear, either; some of them are like the fisherman's tale; there's noway to prove it. Now, we've got a good clothes story to tell you; it's about HART SGHAFFNER & MARX CLOTHES and we've got the goods to prove what we say about them. They're better than any description of them; they're all wool, which means a lot more than those words con vey. They're correct in every detail of style and tailoring; they give a man a correct fit and make him look and feel well dressed. That's why we sell them, and that's why you ought to buy them. $20, $22.50, $25, S27.5Q, $30 and $35 : ami Rosenblatt & Go. Northwest Corner Third and Morrison John F. Shorey are Morris' bondsmen. The bond is for J5000. In instructing: the jury, Judg-e Gantenbein explained the term, "rea sonable doubt." said criminal Intent is a necessary element in embezzlement, and that "a person cannot as a director .or other officer of a corporation enter into, a valid contract on behalf of the corporation with himself In his in dividual capacity for his, own private gain. A person acting: in a fiduciary capacity," he continued, "is required to exercise the utmost good faith, and the law will not permit such person to place himself in a situation in which he may be tempted by his own private interests to disreg-ard tho&e of his principal." The judge told the Jury also that Morris must have had the consent of the board of directors of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bans: lawfully to substitute his Home Tele phone stock: or anyone else's for notes belonging to the bank. Among the Instructions requested by Morris' attorneys, and given to the jury by the court, was a paragraph rel ative to the alleged embezzlement of the $50,000 In cash, and stating that to find Morris guilty of this part of the charge the Jury must find he actually converted to his own use the "identical articles." TTntted States coins, bank notes, checks, bills, drafts, bills of ex change and valuable securities. As the state never succeeded in proving that the brown envelopes Morris took contained United States coins, or any of the other things enumerated, the Jury failed to find Morris guilty of this part of the Indictment. Judge Gantenbein refused to instruct the Jury, as requested by Attorney Fouts, Sweek and Gordon, that W. H. Moore was the ranking officer of the bank, and also refused to tell them that it is one of the usual and customary powers of a bank president to com promise and adjust claims, in the shape of notes and accounts held by a bank. He did tell them they should not take into consideration whether or not the depositors of the bank were paid, or what the telephone stock is now worth. trK.!, ni,, mUmm iisfif niiilii 'ifwii I Supreme conditions of perfection make competi- -tion impossible.
