Bullet Ends Life Just After Walk
With Fiancee.
Harry W. Wetrler. a United States
Customs Inspector, last night killed
himself at his room In the Clarno Ho
tel, at the east end of the Steel bridge.
Placing a revolver directly over his
heart he pulled the trigger and died
as he sat In a wicker armchair next his
bed. Death was Instantaneous, accord
ing to T. C Peebler. a grocer of Holla
day avenue and Larrabee street, who
lives In the hotel snd was the first p'er
son to reach Wetxler's side.
Wetxler and his flnacee. Mrs. Jesse L.
Edwards, who also lives at the Clarno,
had been out for a walk and had re
turned to the hotel at 8:30. W'etzler
fired the bullet at 8:45. Mrs. Edwards
said that Wetxler had been drinking
and had made several tti rests to end
his life. She pleaded with him not to
carry his revolver, for fear ho would
lose control of himself.
Mrs. Edwarda had Just left him at
his room and was returning to her
own apartment at the other end of ths
hall when she heard ths report of the
revolver. She was the flrst one to reach
the door, but she hesitated to go In.
Mr. Peebler entered and found Wetx
ler with his revolver tightly clasped in
his right hand. Mrs. Edwards Is a
stenographer employed by the Oregon-Washington
Railroad Navigation
Company.
Wetxler was 40 years old. He hss

NAME COMMITTEES
Doubt Expressed That Rusk
Thompson Forces Can Be
Held Together."
AMBROSE BREAKS RANKS
Multnomah Member. Says TJiat 8
From His County Will Join in '
Movement to Wrest Privi
lege From Speaker.
K
Unless Speaker Rusk and Representa
tive Thompson hold their forces Intact,
Insurgent forces in the House, led by
Representative Eaton, defeated " candi
date for Speaker, will elect the 43
standing committees from tho floor of
the House next Monday. In fact, it Is
doubtful if the Rusk-Thompson people
can hold their men together.
The first serious break In their ranks
came yesterday when Representatlvs
Ambrose, of tle Multnomah delegation,
bolted and announced that he proposed
uniting with the Eaton forces in their
determination to . deprive ifpeaker Ruait
of the appointment of the committee.
Ambrose said yesterday that ho was not
alone In taking this position and' ex
plained that eight other members of the
delegation from this county would be
found in the lineup with Eaton when the
Houso reconvenes Monday.
Kca-son for Iesertlon Given.
In the organization fight in the
House, Ambrose supported Rusk. In
explanation of hla present attitude in
turning against the man he assisted to
elect Speaker, Ambrose expresses dis
satisfaction with Rusk's position on
the subject of committee organization.
It has been frankly charged by Eaton
and his colleagues that In considera
tion of Thompson's retirement from the
Speakership contest and his support of
Husk. Rusk conceded to Thompson the
naming of most of the House com
mittees. "There can be no question that such
an understanding exists between Rusk
and Thompson," said Mr. Ambrose yes
terday. "For one. I do not propose to
be a party to carrying out that trans
action. I would have no objetclon If
Speaker Husk had the untrammeled ap
pointment of his committees, but It
manifestly is not proper that he should
submit to' dictation from Thompson or
any other source as to how these com
mittees shall be constituted.
"I shall co-operate with Representa
tive Eaton, in view of the circum
stances, and assist In having the com
mittees elected by the members of the
House from the floor rather than sub
mit to the scheme of Rusk and Thomp
son to control their appointment."
Demand Made on Thompson.
Before reaching a decision Mr. Am
brose on Wednesday addscssed a letter
to Thompson, demanding certain con
cessions in the appointment of the com
mittees. His letter follows:
"With reference to your appoint
ments to committees for John P. Rusk,
the wrlttr demands the following ap
pointments and changes:
"First Elimination of Abbott from
the ways and means committee.
"Second Elimination of Fouts from
the revision of laws committee.
"Third Chairman of ways and means
committee from Multnomah County.
"Fourth Chairman of revision of
laws committee from Multnomah
County.
"Fifth Ample provision In the mat
ter of appointments for Multnomah
delegates.
"Sixth The writer reserve the right
to Inspect the . list of committees be
fore their announcement by the
Spesker.
"Kindly give me your reply before
the noon adjournment."'
Replying to the letter, Thompson In
formed Ambrose that the committee
appointments were up to Rusk, and to
Rusk alone: that he (Thompson) had
no more Influence In determining the
committee selections than had any
other Individual member of the House.
This response was not at all satisfying
to Ambrose, who immediately Joined
the Eaton Insurgents.
Lively Contest Promised.
Strenuous efforts will necessarily
have to be employed by Rusk and
Thompson If they prevent the Insurgent
forces from taking out of the hands
of the Speaker the appointment of the
42 standing pommlttees. The maximum
strength of the Rusk-Thompson forces
probably was demonstrated in the vote
on election of Speaker. In that con
test. Rusk received 35, while Eaton had
22. If Ambrose Is correct In his esti
mate that eight other members of the
Multnomah delegation will go with
hfm to Eaton tn the present fight, the
Rusk-Thompson people will be downed.
It Is true that included among these
nine votes will be Clemens. Chatten
and Cole. In the Speakership fight
they supported and voted for Eaton.
However, if six other members of the
delegation from this county Join the
Eaton camp, the Lane County man will
have sufficient votes to put through
his plan for depriving Speaker Rusk
of the appointment of his committees.
Unfairness Is Charged.
Ambrose further Justified his posi
tion by explaining that the proposed
formation of the committees by Rusk
under Thompson's influence and dicta
tion will result unfairly to Multnomah
County, notwithstanding the fact that
in the organization fight Rusk received
the TOte of nine of the 12 Multnomah
County Representatives present and
voting. Further dissatisfaction among
the delegation from this county, as
serts Ambrose, has resulted from the
appointment of preliminary commit
tees 6y Rusk which. Ambrose contends,
were rot fair to Multnomah County.
He points out that four of the five
members of the committee on resolu
tions, appointed by Rusk, are Thomp
son men Buchanan. Thompson, McKln
ney.and Brooke. The rules commit
tee, declares Ambrose, consists of
Eaton, chairman, and Abbott and Ma
honey, the latter two being active
supporters of Thompson.
A further grievance Is the fact that
the committee appointed to employ all
stenographers and clerks for the House
Is composed largely of anti-Eaton men.
the members being McKlnney, Mann,
Mahoney. Jones and Smith Of these.
Smith is the only member who did not
vote for Rusk for Speaker. y
In the Senate no effort la being made
to deprive President Selling, as presid
ing officer, of the privilege of com
posing his own committees. While
Selling is reticent about their probable
personnel. It la more than certain that
Bowerman and his supporters will be
a- t-ordlnated in the committee mem
berships. .
Supporters Get Chairmanships.
The chairmanships naturally will be
distributed among the immediate
friends and supporters of Selling;. Bow
erman. however, undoubtedly will have
a place on Judiciary or revision of
laws, although clmirmanshlp of at least
one of these committees is sure to go
to Malarkey. of Multnomah. Either
Albee or Sinnott it Is understood, will
get the chairmanship of the ways and
means committee. It Is reported that
Nottingham, also of Multnomah, has
been asked to accept a position on the
waya and means committee. Notting
ham, however, ha declined to serve on
that committee unless Wood, of Wash
ington. Is also made a member.
In the organization of the Senate,
nine members voted for Bowerman for
President, although, the name of the
Eastern Oregon man was not presented
formally for the office. In the assign
ment of committee places, however,
these men are not expecting much and
will be satisfied with whatever Selling
may parcel out to them. The Bower
man following consists of Senators
Abraham. Barrett, of Umatilla: Burgess,
Carson, Chase. Lester. Merryman, Par
rish and Wood. It Is to be expected
that Barrett, of Washington, who de
serted the Bowerman forces at the
last minute, insuring Selling's election,
will receive desirable committee as
signments. GRIST OF BILLS IS LIGHTER
Reapportionment and Service Cor
poration Regulation Will Lead.
The number of bills introduced at this
session of the Legislature in the House
and Senate is short' of the number of
measures before the same houses at
the corresponding time of the 1909 ses
sion. In the House, for example, a total
of only 3D bills has appeared, while at
the same time two years ago 43 meas
ures had been Introduced. A larger
showing is made in the Senate, where
36 bills have been offered, as against
26 at the same time In the 1909 ses
sion. Most important of the measures to
be considered at this session are those
providing for a reapportionment of the
state into Senatorial and Representa
tive districts and the creation of a pub
lic service commission. Bills covering
either of these subjects have not been
offered, but it is understood they are in
course of preparation.
In his message to the Legislature
Mr. Bowerman recommended the dis
tricting of the state Into districts equal
in number to the membership of the
House .and the Senate, one member to
each branch of the Legislature to be
chosen from the districts so established:
It Is not known that the recommenda
tions of Mr. Bowerman will be embodied
In a bill but. regardless of whether or
not they are. it is Incumbent on this
Legislature to redlstrlct the state Into
Senatorial and Representative districts.
This duty Is Imposed on the Legisla
ture by a provision of the state con
stitution which directs the state's law
making body shall so redlstrlct the
state following a state or Federal cen
sus. Not fewer than twol bills will be of
fered on the subject of a public serv
ice commission. One will propose such
an organization for the control of cor
porations in Multnomah County alone.
Another will be state-wide in its pro
visions. It Is not improbable that a
third hill on this subject will appear.

"This meeting will be a big thing for
Portland," said Mr. Raymond. ' The
number of men attending the meeting
Is problematical, of course, but there
will be representative, influential' men
from all over the country.
"I received a telegram from thov Port
land Rotary Club this morning to ths
effect that J2000 had been raised in tho
forenoon, which is to be the foundation
of an entertainment fund to be used in
showing the Rotary guests the time of
their lives."
The Rotary Club association of Port

Its purpose to be to "take pride and
Interest In civic matters and assfst in
the Industrial development of its com
munity.". Its chief aim is to throw
trade to Its members. Members belong,

give their trade orders to fellow mem
bers in preference to others.
Mr. Raymond telegraphed from Chi

the decorations are dark. The counters
are covered with glass and have marble
bases.

others. Each official has a private desk.
A noticeable feature is that the

the road alone appearing on the glass.

STRENGTH COMES
Not Prom What Yon Eat, but From
What You Digest.
A Tablet Digests a Meal. Trial Pack
, age Free.
Most people eat most foods without
discrimination It matters little what.
Few stop to think what that food does
for them. This is the first turn on the
road to dyspepsia. Reckless disregard
of the proper choice of foods, rapid eat
ing and improper mastication, are the
unquestioned causes of all stomach dis
orders from the slight ache to the
malignant cancer.
There Is nothing more revolting than
a dyspeptic stomach a very vat for
putrefaction, sending forth Its poison
throughout the entire system, de
pressing the brain, befouling the breath,
souring the taste, deadening the mus
cles, incapacitating the liver and kid
neys for their ' work, debilitating the
heart, choking the lungs and clogging
the bowels.
All of these disagreeable and danger
ous conditions are due to the improper
digestion of food and the consequent
assimilation of poison. What else can
be expected? If the food lies In the
stomach. If the system is constipated,
fermentation is the natural outcome.
It shows itself In sour watery ris
ings, belchings, heartburn and painful
breathing.
There is only one way to relieve thiei
condition. If the stomacn refuses to
digest your food put something Into it
that will. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are nothing but digestives. They are
not a medicine. They work when the
stomach will not.
Each tablet contains enough pepsin,
diastase, golden seal and other di
gestive elements to reduce 3000 grains
of ordinary food to the proper consis
tency for assimilation into tho blood.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are abso
lutely pure. There is nothing harmful
In them as shown in their endorsement
by 40,000 physicians in the United
States and Canada.
Ask your family physician his opinion
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and if he
Is honest toward you he will state
positively that they will cure your
stomach trouble whatever it may be.
unless you have waited too long and
have allowed your disorder to develop
into cancer.
