Politic," Says Blethen.
Colonel Blethen declares that tha In
dictments against him are tha result of
politics and his refusal to become the
-tool" of Dr. Mark A. Matthews, who
brousht Detective Burns to Seattle to
Jasesttgate affairs of the city.
All the Indicted persona were arrested
nd released on their own recognizance.
The Indictments grow out of the uu
Xtlcipal campaign last Sprtng and the so
called antl-vtce crusade that began last
year and resulted In the recall of Mayor
Citll and the removal and Indictment of
Chief of Police Wsppensteln.
Attorney John K. Murphy, prosecutor,
at first refused to sign the presentments.
The grand Jury came into court and re
quested that Murphy sign them. Judge
Mala ruled that he must sign the bills
and the attorney c.d so.
The grand Jury returned seven more
Indictments, which were sealed by Judge
Main. Instructions were given that the
Uentlty of tha persons accused should
not be divulged until the arrests were
Dade.
One not a trua Mil was returnej acalnst
k person whose Identity was not re

Traill "ll. Says 1U1I tor.
Colonel Blelhen made the following
statement:
-Thesa Indictments are the outcome
of politics pure and simple and neither
one of them la founded upon a grain of
trutb and no candid, honest men would
ever have found an Indictment as the
result.
"Tha city has been sconred for two
months and scores of witnesses have
been put before the grand Jury for the
sole purpose . of connecting tha editor
rf the Times with some species of
graft untWr the GUI administration,
but up to data there Isn't a scintilla of
evidence to establish any such charge.
-Even the Indictments which have
been rendered against one or two per
sona charging graft are based on the
alleged confession of two notorious
lawbreakers both of whom swore be
fore tha Investigating committee that
they tad never paid a cent to any one
for the light to conduct gambling In
the restricted district.
Minister Is Blamed.
-So far as the editor of the Times
be concerned tha Indictment brought
against him for conspiracy Is simply
the result of his refusal to become a
tool of Dr. Mark A. Matthews, who
acknowledges over his own signature
that he brought Detective William J.
Burns to this city on his own motion.
paid the expense himself and then jle
mended a grand jury.
-Four times Matthews demanded of
the editor of the Times that ha go to
Matthews study In his church for con
ference, the purpose supposedly being
to persuade the editor of the Times to
turn bis newspaper against tha ex
Chief of Police and generally support
Matthews In his rati1 against men
whom be has denounced as thieves and
double-crossera
Aa the editor of the Times sincerely
believes In the honesty of ex-Chief

ficiency and ability aa an organiser of
police force by reason of his experience
In Seattle during the last five years,
the editor refused to Join the gang
whose sole object Is to pat the ex-Chief
behind bars.
The editor ef the Times does not be

mony has been put before the grand
Jury touching the former Chief and will
continue to so believe until the contrary
be proved n open court before a trial

OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, May IS. If the Democrats hold
all the seats they now have In the United
States Senate, they will need to capture
only flva seats now occupied by Reoub
llcans in order to secure control after
March 4, 113. The prospects seem, at
this time, to be somewhat favorable to
such a result.
As the Senste Is now constituted,
there are 60 Republicans. 41 Democrats
and a vacancy from Colorado, which
has a Democratic Legislature. This va
cancy probably will be filled two years
hence, for the next Colorado Legisla
ture will have the selection of two
United States Senators.
The terras of 21 Senators expire on
March 4. 191S. Thirteen are Democrats:
the rest Republicans. Of the IS Dem
ocrats. It seems quite probable that 12
will be re-elected or' be succeeded by
other Democrats; Watson, of West Vir
ginia, alone seems In danger of being
defeated by a Republican. The IS Dem
ocratic Senators whose terms expire at
the close of the 6 2d Congress are: Bacon
(Ga). Bailey (Tex.). Bankhead (Ala.).
Davis (Ark.). Foster (La.). Martin
(Vs.). Owen (Ok la.). Payntor (Ky.),
Percy (Miss.), Simmons (N. C), Till
man (S. C). and Watson (W. Va.).
Some of these Senators will not be re
turned, notably Jeff Davis, of Arkan
sas, who has proved a "false alarm,"
and Tillman, of South Carolina, who Is
In falling health and not able to spend
much of his time at Washington. '
Bourne Seals Own Fate.
On the other hand, of the IS Republi
cans whose terms expire with the close
of the-present Administration, quite a
few are facing serious trouble, and
some are staring In the face almost
certain defeat. Senator Bourne, of Ore
gon, will not be returned, for, although
he represents a rock-ribbed Republican
state, he himself has built-up a political
system which may bring about his own
defeat by a Democrat, and that Demo
crat, like his present colleague, may be
elected by a legislature tnsi is
Ucan on Joint ballot.
Brlggs. of New Jersey, has not proved
so strong aa to make his return cer

Premier Tells Statesmen of
Colonies Alarm Baseless,

Grey Says British Policy in Full Ac

Aroused at Banquet to
Imperial Conference. .
LONDON. May 23. The dinner of the
Pilgrims Society tonlgnt in honor of the
colonial Premiers was hlstorlo because
of tho unexpected and noteworthy plain
speaking by Sir Wilfrid Laurier. the
Premiei of Canada.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, addressing an
audience composed of many of the great
men of England, handled the annexation
question without glo.ves.
He began by expressing amaxement
that during hfs three days' stay In Eng
land he bad heard so many people of
standing voicing doubts concerning the
designs of the United States regarding
Canada.. He scoffed at the Idea of an
nexation being seriously considered on
either side of the border. He expressed
hie admiration for the people of the
United States, hut said that, mnch aa he
loved the American people, he loved
Great Brlain better.
Canada In sharing the continent with
the United States, he said, had a double
Interest In the treaty of arbitration be
tween the United States and the United
Kingdom and exclaimed dramatically:
"I thank God that the relations be
tween the two peoples never were so
good as they are today."
Peace Reigns on Long Boundary.
' The Premier aroused enthusiasm when
he said that Canada and the United
States proposed to continue to show the
world two nations with the longest
boundary, extending from ocean to
ocean, living In peace and mutual re
spect, without a fortress, a soldier or a
gun on either side of that boundary.
The dinner was in contrast to the
one held at a former Imperial Confer
ence, because that was of purely British
Imperialistic tone, while Anglo-American
relations were almost the sole topic
tonight.
Lord Roberts presided and welcomed
the Premiers. Sir Edward Grey, the
Foreign Secretary, proposed "Anglo
American Arbitration." He said the
negotiations would enter the domain
of practical politics and he sincerely
hoped the treaty would be concluded.
Defining the Monroe Doctrine as
meaning that no European nation
should acquire more territory on the
American Continent, he added:
"Our policy Is in full accord with
that doctrine."

the belt was to be found.
Mrs. Beauregard, who got out of the
machine, was talking to her husband
about what had better be done, when
he chanced to spy. a long hairpin. With
out explaining, he pulled out the pin
and in a few minutes had spliced the

NEW LAW INJURES WOMEN
100 Matchmakers 'Discharged Be
cause of 8-Hour Limit.
CHICO. Cal., May 23. (Special.)
The Diamond Match Company, operat
ing big factories at Barber, a suburb of
this city, will replace practically all Its
women employes with men, on account
of the new eight-hour law. In the
matchmaking department alone more
than 100 women and girls will be let
out. Many are experts brought from
Eastern . States and receiving good sal
aries. For some time it has been impossible
for' the company to get a sufficient
number of competent women to do the
work, and with the enforcement of the
new eight-hour law, conditions are
made worse, as the work of practically
100 men depends on the work of these
women, and their hours would of neces
sity have been shortened with the
shortening of the women's hours from
nine to eight.
It had been rumored the company
contemplated, employment of Japanese
to replace the women, but General Su
perintendent Fairburn denied this.

WALLA WALLA. Wash., May 23.
(Special.) Ex-Governor Moore, of this
city, today paid a tribute to Harvey
Scott, late editor of The Oregonlan. at
the luncheon given the press of this
city by the Commercial Club.
"I deprecate the tendency of the press
to commercialism," said he. "I would
see the return of the olden days of
Journalism, when fearless editors, such
S3 Horace Greely, wrote without fear
of their advertisers. Harvey Scott, late
editor of The Oregonlan. was the last
of these, great men that they were.
With his passing is gone the last great
man of the true type of editor.
"The tendency, I fear, is more and
more towards commercialism, and this
may be necessary, but it is deplorable.
"Newspaper men, I have found, are
generally good fellows, and to be
L trusted If treated courteously."

. MEXICO CITT. May 23. Notwith
standing the official signing of th4
peace agreement, the capital is more
nearly isolated tonight than since the
inauguration of hostilities.
Ignorant, apparently, that the war Is
ended officially, one small band of
rebels under . Candido Navarro last
night cut the National Railroad near
San Felipe, south of San Luis Potosl,
and another band stopped all traffic
over the Mexican Railroad by ripping
out the rails and burning a bridge near
Huamantla.
Believing that the rebels in Morelos
would interfere with traffic over the
Cuernavaca branch of the National
Railroad, the management sent a train
south today with guards.
Rebel activity was not regarded aa
meaning that thei Insurrectos will re
fuse to abide by the terms of the peace
treaty. Yesterday the armistice agreed
upon terminated and there probably
are scattered bands of rebels unin
formed that, their country Is officially
at peace. However, Navarro Is report
ed to have said he would not consent
to peace at present.
, Battle Xow in Progress.
The motive for the cutting of the
Mexican Railway may be that a troop
train was being brought towards the
capital. Unconfirmed reports are that
the delayed soldiers have detrained at
Huamantla and engaged a body of
rebels In battle.
In the last seven days the federal
garrison has been greatly strengthened
and the capture of the capital will now
be difficult.
It is reported that Figueroa and his
chief lieutenant, Azunsolo, are at outs
and that Azunsolo has angered Zapata,
the captor of Suautla, by branding him
a bandit.
