the large representation of Portland
men. The Drat session. In the after
noon In the contention hall of the

San Franciscan Icpieta Troubles.
rr. J. K. Wetherbee waa toastmaater
of the banquet. , William L. Gerstle.
president of the Citizens' Alliance of
han Francisco, said that the "closed
hop" bad killed man u fact urine; In bis
city.
"There are a few manufacturers In
cur city." he said, "who are able to
make roods for local consumption, but
when it comes to competing with the
Fast ard with the cities of the Coast
that do not bare the closed shop. It Is
out of the question. We are simply
out of I:. The only people who are
setlinc In our territory are those
manufacturers who are working; nnder
the rule c? tha 'open shop.' They arj
doing well and bare a good business.
"I am not an alarmist. I have been
classed aa an optimist-by friends -In
fan Francisco, and when I say that
the manufacturing- Interests of the
I iwb are dead. I am not telling- any
thing new. for everyone In San Fran
cisco knows It Is true. I do not. wish
to be called a "knocker. I believe that
the truth told here in this manner may
do the people of San Francisco aoroe
good."
W. D. Wheelwright of Portland, dis
cussed the labor question In Its appli
cation not only to the Pacific Coast
bnt to tha Nation at large.
Poller Called Dishonest.
"However much wa may differ, there
ran be no difference of opinion about
the monstrous doctrine of the labor
unions that a man shall reduce the
work that be shall do In those limited
hours to an amount below his capacity
to perform." said Mr. Wheelwright.
-The religious advocates of the claims
of the union are fond of quoting from
Holy Scriptures The laborer Is worthy
of his hire.' That is trne. and by an
irresistible logic be who pays the hire
Is entitled to the labor that the man
can do not three-quarters, or such
fraction of it as a hostile and unin
telligent association ahall prescribe.
. Therefore, the first objection to this
policy is that It la dishonest and fraud
ulent. And the case Is lust as bad from
the practical standpoint; all wealth and
all excellence come from sustained ef
fort: to relax it at the suggestion of
an Indolent disposition means failure:
to reduce It deliberately In order that
a greater number of laborers may be
employed to do a certain piece of work
or that a normal force shall take more
time In which to do it is an economic
crime.
San Francisco FacMj Fight.
"San Francisco, only Ave years ago
tricken by a calamity of unprecedented
proportions, rising out of her ashes with,
a strength and splendor that exhaust all
metaphor, is seized at the throat, aa It
were, by the ravening wolf of organized
labor, her Industries threatened with
paralysis, her buildings with vacancy,
her great facilities with useless nesa.
ha has demonstrated her right to have
the greatest exposition of the century,
which promises to be the exposition of
all centuries, within her borders and
under her control; she is engaged in a
struggle for the maintenance of her
rights as a self-governing community
against forces that would reduce her
to Industrial slavery, that would take
away her power to carry out her own
magnificent plana for the exposition
and put her under the bondage of the
closed shop. Let us stand shoulder to
shoulder with her In this fight. In sym
pathy wl'.h her laudable ambitions, in
appreciation of ber splendid achieve
ments, in absolute loyalty to her, our
beloved sister, and the principle for
which she stands."
Willis Dodd. of San Francisco, said
that the purpose of the "open shop"
could be attained only by an enlight
ened public mind. He believed that
If the public were educated to the
truth of the situation It would respond
promptly and bring relief in the form
of satisfactory legislation and protec
tion. Politicians Are Blamed.
T.p In British Columbia." said F. T.
Cope, of Vancouver. B. C."we have the
same difficulties as you have here. The
politician plays with the labor vote
and as a result we have laws which
re choking to death the manufactur
ing Industry. We have the same Ideas
up there aa you have, and when I left
one friend told me that he did not care
whether Canada wanted to annex the
I'nlted States or the TTnlted States

J. V. Peterson, of Seattle, represent

CAR PKXTEKS KKKP SILENCE
Itrqaest for Support to Be Presented
to Iabor Council.
The Portland branch of the Carpen
ters' I'niop held a meeting at Its hall.
40 Grand avenue, last night, but what
action.Jf any. waa taken In regard to
a general strike Ralph O. Rector, the
representative of the union, refused to
say.
"I do not care to nay what we have
done toward precipitating a general
strike." he said. "It will be .' time
enough " for the public to know about
that when the strike comes.
"I waa a delegate to the meeting of
the Building Trades Council last Mon
day night, but I do not care to say
what action waa taken then or whether
a general strike was discussed.
"The reason the union carpenters
struck Is because the Employers' Asso
ciation Is trying to Institute the nine
hour day. We consider it a step back
ward and desire the eight-hour day to
continue. If a man Is obliged to slave
nine hours every day he has little time
for his family or for study. We Mon't
consider It Just to compel a man to
work nine hours, and Intend to prevent
It if possible, and also to establish
union conditions wherever we can."
A meeting of the Central .Labor
Council will be held tomorrow night.
The request of the. Carpenters' Union
for the support of the allied trades In
the present strike probably will be pre
sented at that time.

COURTS TO DECIDE
'Henderson to Fight Banish
ment From Baseball.
M'CREDIE SUPPORTS HIM
Portland Twlrler Seeka Permission
to Play With Beavers Despite
Ruling by Baseball Commis
sion Rights to Be Tested.
BAN FRANCISCO, Aprlf 12. tSpeclal.)
Benny Henderson, the PortJand pitch
er who has been kept out of organized
baseball for the past three years, will
take his case to the Federal courts to
get justice at the hands of the Na
tional Baseball Commission, which in
sists on preventing Henderson from
earning a livelihood on the diamond.
Henderson and Walter McCredle will
bold a conference with Attorney Ellas
sen, of Oakland. Thursday and plans
will be outlined to make a fight to test
the authority of a body of men to rule
that a man cannot follow his chosen
profession. Henderson has been great
ly perturbed by the seeming Injustice
of the commission in handling the cases
of the players who cast their lot with
the Ca'ifornla State League the out
laws and McCredle Is willing to ex
pend money to see If the baseball com
mission has the right to prevent a play
er from playing the game.
"What makea me particularly "sore
Is that they are picking on me," ex
plained Henderson. "There was Mor
larlty and others who were let back
and their cases were worse than mine.
Morlarlty Jumped his contract in mid
season and still he got back In the fold
a couple of years ago. I simply did
net report and so notified McCredle be
fore the 190 season started. It Is true
that I had a contract but I did not
Jump the team."
Walter McCredle hacks up Hender
son In his stand. "I think the com
mission is making a big mistake in
not allowing Benny to play," he said.
"A ballplayer's life on the "diamond only
averages about eight years and they
are depriving this boy of earning a
living on the diamond when he is good.
The commission does not seem to show
any Judgment in this case. Henderson
waa with tha Portland club when he
went with the outlaws and' I think If
any one should object to his coming
back it should be the Portland club. I
think, however, that he has been suf
ficiently punished."
GRAHAM DEFENDS HENDERSON
Coast League President In Favor of
Showing Leniency.
SAN vFRANCISCO, April 12. (Spe

ident of the Pacific Coast League, has

eligible to play ball here. President
Graham at once replied and In a long
message to Farrell urged that Justice
be done.
He called attention to the fact that
Morlarty and Chase, as well as count
less others were reinstated and that
he thought Henderson had been suf
ficiently punished. Farrell was asked
to take the matter up at once with
the National Commission, which makes
rulings about as it sees fit.

each team. Columbia was disappointed

Jefferson ha"s been working all the
harder, and some new stars have been

rett was one of the best twirlers In the
Coast circuit In 1909 but last season
had an uphill struggle against sick
ness and other obstacles.

thing of a setback for us," said Mana
ger Williams yesterday, but the pitch
ers have managed to warm up now and
then at the Armory and we hope to
give a good account of ourselves at
Spokane."
Wednesday's game with the Multno

that I knew anything about. While I
knew I was Innocent. I did not know

nervous, all right. I am going back to
Portland on the nnst car 1 can get."
The State Chemist In his report says
'that ptomaine poison cannot be deter

form of poison waa found," he adds. "I

Into three classes: Volatile, such as
chloroform, carbolic acid, etc.; non-volatile,
the alkaloids, euch as morphine,
strychnine, etc and mineral poison,
such as arsenic mercury, copper, lead,
etc.
"I made examinations and tests for all
of these, but In every case the reeults
proved negative. There was no evidence
to show that a corrosive poison had
been taken, leading one to suspect a nar
cotic I took particular care to make
thorough tests that such a poison would
not escape me, but In spite of my care,
no trace was found."
