CAMPBELL'S DESERTION BLOW Friends Are Aware Illinois Man Canot Regain Power. CANNON CAMPAIGN - ISSUE Thousands of Voters Demand',Abso . lute Denunciation of Speaker Be fore They AVIH . Cast Their . .. - , Votes for Candidates. FV HARRY .T. BROWX. OREGOXIAN NEWS BL'REAL. Wash ington. Sept. 11. Every day as the campaign approaches, sees some name added to the list of Republican members of' Congress who will" not again vote ' to elect Joseph G. Cannon, of Illinois, to the Speakership. Already a goodly num ber of former supporters of the Speaker have come out against him, probably a sufficient number, added to his enemies in the Republican party, to make cer tain his defeat if he again asks a Re publican caucus to indorse him for the highest office in the House of Repre sentatives. It has been noted that avnumber of very staunch "standpatters" who in times past have been very close and ey loyal to Speaker Cannon are now arrayed against him. all of which must have been gall to the fighting old Roman. - Phil Campbell Deserts. The bitterest dose he has thus far had . to swallow was the announced de sertion of Representative Fhil Campbell, of Kansas, the man In whose behalf he first' took "the stump during fhe" hot months of the past Summer. Campbell, of Kansas, heretofore reputed to be a died-in-the-wool Cannon man. and one who would never desert his friend, the Speaker, found it advisable to change his mind, lit' the "hopeof longer holding his seat in, Congress. There have been more prominent Republicans- than Campbell who have de serted the Cannon standard, however. Thus far the most conspicuous of the old Cannon machine to announce his purpose -to. vote for another than Cannon for Speaker is Walter I. Smith, of Iowa. Smith' has been one of Cannon's trusted lieutenants, and one of the most active regular leadeis on- the floor of the House. - Cannon Cannot lie Speaker. But Smith is enough of a politician to he aware that Cannon can mvel- be re-elected Speaker and therefore deemed It good politics to corral to his own use such benefits as might accrue from the early renunciation of hi old friend. And then, be It remarked. Walter I. Smith is a candidate for the Speakership, in case the next House is Republican, so there was double method in his madness. There will be other desertions from day to day, clear up to the day of election, though most of the desertions will pre cede the primaries or Congressional con- ASiO SSAPSHWT AS VARIOUS PHOTOGRAPHERS HAVE TAhEJ HER Author Intends to Hold Mirror I'p . to St. Louis "400" and Prom ise;?

With t'he re turn of Theodore Roosevelt -from his Western trip the struggle between the Old Guard and trie "progressives" for the control of the Republican state conven tion looms larger updn the political hori zon. Both sides have been conducting a campaign to capture delegates and the result of Tuesday's primaries in Buffalo and Rochester in a lni-ge measure will determine whether the selection by the state committee of Vice-President Sher man as temporary chairman shall be rat ified or rejected in favor of Colonel Roosevelt. Leaders of both factions profess confi dence in their ability to win the support of a majority of the 10 1 5 delegates to the convention.

Alaska, to the Dexter-ljorton National Bank of Seattle. on the steamship Hiiinboldt, was stolen in transit and lead substituted in the strong box li;at had contained the bullion. (old in Three Boxes. The gold when it left Fairbanks or a Yukon River steamer for Dawson and White Horse was contained in three wooden boxes and was in the care of. the Alaska-Pacific Express Company. When the boxes were, opened by t lie Canadian customs offi cers at Dawson the gold bars were, found to be ns stated in the express company's papers. The boxes were opened again at the United States assay office In Seattle last Friday noon, and one contained pics of lead, not of pold. The seals of the box were intact when it reached the office, and it was evident that the robbeiy had been committed by re moving one end of the box. The gold was insured against loss by the ex press company. Injiots Welsh 2.10 Pound. The boxes were received at the as say office Thursday morning: and re mained there until the agents of the consignee arrived next day to check up the ingots. It is supposed that the gold was stolen on the Yukon steamer between Dawson and' White Horse, or on the steamer Humboldt between Skagway and Seattle. There would have been small opportunity for rob bery in the assay office or in the short railroad run from White Horse to Skagway. The Bold weighed iuO pounds, and the disposal of such heavy plunder must have required time and preparation. The sold was in the purser's cabin and it is not customary on the sold ships to take elaborate precaution acainst robbery. Detectives working; on the case have made no arrests, and say they have no clow on which to work. Miller Case Duplicated. However, the robbery was very much like one four years ago. In this case JS9.000 consigned to Seattle by the Washington-Alaska Bank of Fairbanks over the Yukon River-Skagway route, was stolen from a wooden strongbox and lead substituted. The theft was committed by Bobby Miller, niriit watchman on a Tanana River steamer, which was carrying the gold from Fairbanks to the Yukon steamer that was to convey it to White Horse. Miller concealed the gold in his stateroom, got it back to Fairbanks and secreted it so well that after his arrest on suspicion the owners of the bullion were glad to make terms with hiin. He 'as promised a short prison sentence if he returned the gold, and he produced jr.0.000, alleging that the remaining 10,"00 had been stolen from him. Assay orfiee" Not to Blame. That the robbery has been known to the assay officials for several days, in fact Immediately following the ar rival of the Humboldt after the gold had been taken to the B3say office, became apparent tonight. Calvin E. Vilas, head of the assay office, de clines to be quoted, but indicates that no responsibility can fall upon his of fice. Vilas, a head of the department, does not open the vaults in the assay office at all, that being done by the .Sunset Telephone Company by an electrical device. The same system is used in locking the big dors where the wealth of the North is stored. Announcement of the theft was not made until after the Humboldt started for the return trip to the North, an1 attempts of the detectives to secure, any Information from the ship's offi cers is unavailing. Gold Taken in North Is Theory. Another theory of robbery which has been under some consideration is that the original packages contained the spurious metal' from the moment it was shipped from Dawson. The substi tuted meta! was molded into the shape of ingots and closely resembled gold. Of course the boxes in which the ship ment was made showed signs of tam pering, but this, it is explained, would be the very thing that would be done in order to throw off suspicion when the precious cargo reached its final Ldestinatiou. -
