Hawley told the President that. If

but. as he understands the agreement.
It will prove of slight benefit to Ore

Canada.
He rr gar da thtg agreement as dis

particularly against several of the

therefore lie will oppose it.
The Tresidcnt ssld he was sorry
Ilawley could not see his way clear
to support the pending bill, but made
no attempt whatever to coerce him Into

Horatio Moses Confesses to
Embezzlement-1-Retracts.

After Few Hours' Confinement Pris
oner Denies He Stole $3500 la
Xevr York He Smashes Win
dow in His Ruse.
COLFAX. Wash., Feb. 11. (Special.)
Horatio B. Moses, said to be from
New York, made a voluntary confes
sion of embezzlement to Sheriff Carter
today and later retracted It- Moseg reg
istered at the Whitman Hotel last week,
from Portland. He visited tho County
Jail Saturday and aroused suspicion by
looking- through the pictures of men
wanted for crimes.
Today he walked to the desk of Sher
iff Carter, saying he wished to make a
confession of embezzlement, as de
tectives were hot on his trail and he
could stand the strain no longer. He
said he had embezzled 13000 from Belas
tt Hess, 668 Broadwsy. New York, a
mailorder house, while selling silks for
them, and admitted embezzlement from
the Holland Gallery. 500 Fifth avenue,
paintings valued at 1500.
While making this confession he
smashed a large window la the Jail
office with his fist. Tonight, after get
ting several hours of Jail life, he called
for ex-Mayor William Llppltt and made
the second confession, contradicting; his
embezzlement acts, saylns that he was
sent West by his father from New York
to learn farming and his father was to
back him later In the purchase of a
ranch.
He had a letter from Julius Llppltt,
at Portland, asking his brother William
Llppltt. at Colfax, to aid Moses In tret
ting farm work. Moses said he was
out of funds and was too proud to ask
aid.
Moses Is a well-dressed, well-groomed
young; man.
William Blonder, of Portland, form
erly of New York, who Is acquainted
with young- Moses' family, said last
night that Moses arrived In Portland
about a week ago, bearing letters of
Introduction to various people here.
Among- these was Julius Llppltt. of 70
Lucretia street. Upon learning from
Moses that he wished to learn farming-.
Mr. Llppltt advised him to go to Col
fsx. where Mr. Llppltt's brother would
assist the young man to find a suitable
place. On hla artval In Colfnx. Moses
registered at the Hotel Whitman, but
his lack of funds obliged him to leave
there. Not wishing to Impose on any
one, according to Mr. Blonder's state
ment, the young man went to the Sher
iff and told a story to the effect that he
was wanted In New York on a charge
of embezzlement. This, he afterwards
explained to the Sheriff, he Invented In
order to procure food and lodging In the
Jail. Mr. Blonder said last night that
arrangements are being made by the
young man's friends to assist him to
return to his home tn New York.
France Foresees Great Results.
PARIS, Feb. 11. The French Govern
ment is much Interested In the plan for
reciprocal trade relations maturing be
tween the two great nations of North
America, while French exporters are
plainly apprehensive. The first foreign
arrangement by France under her new
scientific tariff wss with Canada and
there Is a feeling here that a close
commercial union of the United States
and Canada will have the effect ulti
mately of diminishing' French trade
with the Dominion. Writing for the
Journal des Iicbats. Baron Robert de
Calx says the proposed agreement Is a
force tending to detach Canada from
Great Britain and draw her Into a po
litical nearness to the United States
through great material advantages to
both nations. The writer thinka that
the relatione of the other great colonies
to the British Empire may be also af
fected by the action of Cansda and the
results of the new policy.
Man Throws Self Before Train.
WE3SKR. Idaho, Feb. 13. An Inquest
was held thla morning on the body of
the man who was killed by the eastbound
fnst-niall train on the Oregon Short Line
Railroad about 11 miles west of thUs city
yesterday. The evidence of the engineer
and trainmen showed conclusively that
the man deliberately threw himself In
front of the train with the Intent to
commit suicide. He was walking on the
track In front of the train, looked back
when the whistle was blown, stepped off
the track and when the train, which was
going at the rate of 40 miles an hour,
was In 30 feet of him, threw himself
directly acress the rails. The Jury In ac
cordance with the evidence exonerated
the train crew. There was nothing on
his person by wmch he could be Identi
fied. He was about 43 years of age,
weighed about 1T0 pounds, had light
brown hair, streaked with gray, light
blue eyes and sandy moustache. The
body wass burled In th Waiter Cemetery
todax.
IN
Senator Confronted on One Hand
by Peclarations of Policy and
on
Other by Insistent De
mands of Constituents.
BT HARRY J. FROWN'.
OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Feb. IX So much opposition
has developed tn the Senate to the Ca
nadian reciprocity acreement negoti
ated by President Taft that Its adop
tion this session Is generally regarded
as Impossible. Not only are many Sen
ators outspoken in their opposition, but
a great many more are lukewarm, and
would shed no tears if it should fall
to reach a vote, notwithstanding they
would support it under pressure from
the White .House, If forced to go on
record.
The number of Senators enthusiastic
ally in favor of the ratification of this
sgreoment Is comparatively small. Polls
thus far made have shown that. But
It is equally true that a minority of
the Senate Is outspoken in Its opposi
tion. Uncertainty as to how the Sen
ate would vote grows out of the non
committal attitude of a great many
Senators that the President expects to
get votes enough to ratify the agree
ment, if arrangement can be made for
taking- a vote.
BlvlFlon Not Clear.
Continued dlscus.slon of the agree
ment has failed to bring about a clear
division of the Senate, for a number
of Senators are unable to satisfy them
selves whether such reciprocity Is de
sirable or otherwise. Particularly Is
this true of Senators from the border
states. Among them the feeling is
quite strong thst the reciprocity agree
ment might work to the benefit of some
of their people, but would prove dis
astrous to others. They have difficulty
in determining whether the benefits
would offset the presumed injury.
Another Interesting- -development In
connection with this agreement Is the
growing suspicion in the minds of a
number of Senators that President Taft,
In negotiating with the Canadian Gov
ernment, sought to play a little poli
tics, and embarrass some of his In
surgent friends, who expressed such
dissatisfaction with the Payne-Aldrich
law. It so happens that the Canadian
agreement affects the principal prod
ucts of a number of the Insurgent
states, and so far as the Senators from
those states are concerned, the agree
ment becomes a local issue.
Insurgents Are Embarrassed.
Naturally these Senators are opposed
to the ratification of the agreement,
notwithstanding It lowers a number of
the rates fixed by the Payne-Aldrich
law. They fled themselves confronted
on the one side by their past declara
tions of policy, and on the other side
by the clamoring of their constituents.
The two can not be reconciled. Hence
the embarrassment of the aforesaid In
surgent Senators.
Whether or not the President intend
ed to "play" politics with this agree
ment, he has done that very thins, and
to the great discomfiture of some of
the men who were loudest In their con
demnation of the administration's tariff
position during the recent campaign.
Of course, the President would never
admit that he was seeking to embar
rass these Republican Insurgents by
the negotiation of the Canadian agree
ment: he could not afford to allow the
Canadian Government, that entered into
the negotiations in good faith, to be
lieve that he was using them for aty
such purpose. And yet the suspicion
Is strong that the President chuckled
to himself when he paused to consider
the feelings of the Insurgents. If he
deliberately played politics, he played
good, clever politics from the stand
pat position.
- Outlook Not Bright.
As stated above, the outlook for the
ratification of the Canadian agreement
is not bright. There will be but two
weeks to consider it in the Senate,
after it comes from the Finance com
mittee, and with 15 or 20 Senators
ready to voice their opposition at
length, there would seem to be Inad
equate time In which to close up the
reciprocity debates. The last two weeks
of the seraton will be crowded with
important business; the remaining ap
propriation bills must be considered
and disposed of: the unfinished busi
ness has right of way when the ap
propriation bills are out of the way
and there will be little time at the dis
posal of the Senate In which to discuss
Canadian reciprocity.
Such a situation makes it possible
for a very few Senators to block ac
tion. They need only make a deter
mined, filibusterer for a few days, hold
their for-cs together, and in that way
prevent a vote. And that is what is
expected to happen.
Treasure Slay Re Brought.
There Is always a possibility that
pressure from the White House will
swing a number of Senators into line,
but among those who oppose the Ca
nadian agreement Is Senator Heyburn,
of liiaho. the most determined and most
successful filibusterer of recent times,
and Senator Heyburn has declared
that there shall be no tarrlff
lnrlslation this session. If his health

holds out. Senator Heyburn can take
advantage of the parliamentary situa
tion and sinple-handed prevent a vote.
He Is one Senator who can not be
"pulled off" by the White House. Sen
ator Heyburn insists that it is not In
the province of the President to take
any hand in legislation while it Is
pending in Congress: he has so publicly
expressed himself, and therefore It is
not probable the President will send
for him.
It will be recalled that while the
Payne-Allrich bill was before the Sen
ate, the President sought an interview
with Senator Heyburn, and the Idaho
Senator refused to go to the AVhite
House. Undoubtedly he would do the
same thing now. Therefore, if for no
other reason, it Is reasonably safe to
bet that the pending agreement will
not bo voted upon in the Senate be
fore March "4th, because of the objec
tion of Senator Heyburn.

ALBANY, Or.. Feb. 18. (Special.)
Albany's complement of public build
ings, which was increased last year by
a $60,000 pressed-brlck High School and
a $30,000 brick armory, will be aug
mented by at least two more struc
tures, and possibly four. In 1911. Sev
eral business blocks. Including a pos
sible five-story structure, are also in
prospect for this city this year, and
plans ara developing for a large num
ber of residences and a few apartment
houses as soon as weather permits the
opening of the active building season.
Public buildings which may be erect
ed are a $65,000 Federal building, a
$40,000 City Hall, a $20,000 Carnegie
library and a new public school build
ing. The site for the Federal building
was purchased at the southeast corner
of Second and Broadalbin streets more
than a year ago. and It is assured that
work on it will begin during 1911. It
Is not expected, however, that the build
ing will be completed and occupied be
fore next year.
The Issuance of $40,000 bonds to build
a City Hall was authorized by popular
vote eome time ago, but the City Coun
cil is hopelessly divided on the selec
tion of a site.
A tax levy has also been made to
purchase a site for a new public school
building. So rapidly has the school
population of Albany increased that,
notwlthsanding the erection of a new
High School building and the conse
quent affording of more room In the
other building last Summer, a new
grade building is already needed. It
may be built this year, but It is more
probable that only the site will be
bought this year and construction of
the new building begin in 191.
Several new business blocks are also
assured for this year and. though It
will be hard to eclipse the record of
1910 in new business blocks In Albany,
indications are that this is possible.
The First National Bank Is planning to
erect a new building this year, and It
may be a five-story structure.
A number of warehouses were built
last year along Water street, the city's
wholesale district.' A switch of the
Southern Pacific traverses this street.

and a franchise has also been granted
there for the Oregon Electric freight
line through Albany. The granting of
this franchise caused the erection of
several warehouses there in 1910, and
others are said to be In prospect for
this year. .
There has been a great deal of
building every season for the past few
years in the residence district of this
city, and this will continue this year.
In fact work has been progressing all
Winter in building In the residence dis
trict, and with the beginning of Spring
weather considerable building will be
gin. Plans have been made for many
dwellings and apartment-houses here,
especially for dwellings in the eastern
part of the city, the building activity
in that section having been stimulated
by the fact that $40,000 bonds have
been voted' for the extension of tho
city's splendid sewage system to the
extreme eastern part of Albany.

TWO LETTERS
TELL HIS STORY
How can physicians and hospitals af
ford to hold chronic kidney patients
to certain failure on the orthodox
treatment' when by a simple addition
recovery Is possible In many cases?
We have snatched another brand from
the burning. We record below another
recovery madeby Fulton's Renal Com
pound In a case of Brighfs disease de
clared Incurable by the books.
Mr. John Anderson, 660 Bryan Ave
nue, Forth Worth, Texas, wrote on De
cember , 1910, from which we make
the following extracts:
"I would like to have your opinion
and I will give .you my symptoms as
clear as I can. My legs, thighs and
stomach are badly swollen. My doctor
tried strong purgatives to relieve the
dropsy, but to no purpose. Four months
ago the welling was eo bad that my
lungs were full and the elimination wa
almost solid with albumen. 1 was in
bed three months previous to taking
the Renal Compound. It has done me
more good than anything else, but I am
still bedfast."
Prescriptions were sent to aid the
compound to reduce the dropsy.
On January 27. 1911, Anderson again
wrote a follows:
"I wish to thank you for the letter
and prescriptions. I have completely
recovered. I had a test made two days
ago and am perfectly free from albu
men. Barring weakness I feel every bit
as well as I ever did. I have been out
of bed Just three weeks, having been
confined to bed nine months, it has
taken about twenty-five bottles to cure
me. Of course I was in a terrible con
dition and the results have surprised
all who knew how bad I was. I do
not suppose you need a testimonial, but
you are perfectly welcome to use my
name if you wish."
