DEMOCRATS SEE VICTORY Vnt!nued mm First Page.' ed a Democratic ijenator under her new primary law last year, and as Ne braska la trying the Oregon plan and Insurgency Is rampant In the state, rwmocrat Is likely to be chosen to succeed Norris Brown, who Is him self a progretslve. The regular ele ment In the state will not stand for Brown, and his term is likely to end with tbe present Congress. Over In the neighboring State of tienabllcans are. In dire stralta. Curtis Is a candidate for re election, but his return Is regarded as doubtful. The same It true of Gamble. of South Dakota. Carter Will KlgUt Dixon. w-K.t wilt haDocn In Montana two years hence nobody can foretelL Cer tain it Is. however, mat Lxon win have the flgtot of his young political life with Thomas H. Carter, who wan defeated at the last election. Carter has the habit of sticking to the Gov .m.nt nav ro'.L and' he prefers the ftenatorshlp to any other Government office in hl reach. Therefore, he will go after Dixon with a tomahawk ana. If he does not succeed In getting Dlxon'a seat, may at least so embroil the Republicans as to force the ele'c nn f nmli.r nvmoeratlc Legislature. la that case. Montana will bays two Instead of one Democratic Senator. Hard-and-fast Republican Maine aent a Democrat to the Senate In place of Hale last Fall. If Maine can get along wltbout Hale It cenauuj cm gtl aiocg without Frye. for Frye. while one If the most highly respected members of the Senate, la an old man and a sick one. and the chances are he will not be a candidate for re-election. The Democrats have filed on his seat, and will make a mighty effort to carry Maine In 1)11. They wast both Sena torial p. If the Colorado Legislature remains Democratic In 1912. UuRgcnhelm will have to go. If the Legislature Is Re publican, he will be returned, and the present vacancy will be filled by an other Republican. Colorado Is very essential In the next Senatorial elec tion, for It vrjll throw two votes one way or the other, and may decide the political complexion of the next Sen ate. Iowa Kepobllcans Spilt. Iowa Republ'cans of e the regulsr persuasion are very disgusted over the recant lect!jn of young Mr. Kenyon to sncceed Laf Young. Kenyon has never been much of a political factor In Iowa polities, but he has been a rery active Insurgent since he made h's debut In the Senate. Wherefore the regulars are very Indignant. Kenyon sans eleoted to fill the unexpired terra or the late Senator liolllver. and If the Iowa regulars can bring It about his career In Congress will end after two yeara. It may be necessary to elect a Democrat to defeat Kenyon, but some of the regulars would even go to that extent to get Kenyon out of office. . William Alden eJmith. of Michigan, Is reasonably certain of re-election, but not so Wsrren of Wyoming. In the last election the Warren mach'lne In Wyoming did Its utot to prevent the election of Oovernor Carey, Insurgent Republican, who accepted the Demo cratic nomination. Carey Is Warren's bitter enemy, and has his eye on the Senate, of which he was once a mem ber, when he became father of the Carey Irrigation act. In the last elec tion Carey was decidedly on top. and bowled over the Warren machine. .If he can retain his hold he not only can defeat Warren, but can probably come to the Senate, but If eo. It will have to be by the aid of Democratic votes. How he would classify himself. If elected. Is problematical, though his actions and beliefs undoubtedly would make him out more of a Democrat than a Repub lican. Democratic Contest Probable. This, briefly, is the predicament in which a number of the Republican Sen ators find themselves, and out of all these doubtful states, the Democrats, assuming there le no revolution In the meantime, certainly stand a very ex cellent chance of making a gain of at least six seats In the Senate. Six will give them control: five will give them bare control If the next Vice-President Is a Democrat and there Is a full Sen ate, for a gain of five would tie the Senate (If the Colorado vacancy la filled by a Democrat) and the Vlce Prealdent. In the event of a tie, could cast the deciding vote. L CASE URGED SF..YATE ASKS WICKERSHAM ABOCT OIL MEX. Supreme Court Decision Against Standard Causes Prodding; of Attorney-General. WASHINGTON.

Garros and Gil bert, contestants In the Parls-to-Madrid airship race for the Petit Parl slen prize of $20,000. arrived here today In the order named. They will con tinue the race to Madrid tomorrow. Vedrlne reached here at 10:6 o'clock this morning, after battling with death near the Spanish town of Fuenterrabia, where he encountered dangerous air eddies and nearly met disaster on jagged rocks. Although the wings of his machine grazed the crags, bending one plane, he continued the flight. He made no stop between Angouleme, France, and San Sebastian. Leaving Angouleme at 6:13 o'clock this morning, Garros made the flight to San Sebastian, arriving at 11:40. He waa forced to stop two hours at Fuen terrabia for fuel. . ' Gilbert, the last of the trio to reach San Sebastian, did not sail into the city until :62 o'clock this evening. After leaving Angouleme this morning he lost his way in a dense foj over the Bay of Biscay. He flew over water for two hours and then encountered land where he could alight. He took on fuel, but was delayed several hours making repairs to his motor. Only the three succeeded in reaching Angouleme and will continue the flight to Madrid. The first -stage of the flight from Issy Lea Moullneaux. Just outside Paris, to Angouleme was begun Sunday In the presence of thousands of spectators. On account of the accident at the opening of the race, however, which resulted in the death of Minister of War Berteaux and the Injury to Premier Monis, all of the contestants were not able to get away. Some of the aviators, including M. Train, whose machine was the cause of the tragedy, retired permanently from the competition.

In fact, the Premier's condition was I regarded as so satisfactory this morn ing that he was Informed or M. Ber teaux's death. When he asked as to the condition of M. Berteaux, a member of the Cabinet replied: "All Is over." For a moment It was feared that the shock was too much for the aged Pre mier. He fell back in the bed. tears filling his eyes. Later, however, he recovered and talked of the qualities of M. Berteaux. who was an Intimate friend of the Premier a well as his associate in the Cabinet. Weymann to Race. NEW YORK. May 23.

Dr. Matthews, an elder of whose church Is foreman of this grand jury, that Matthews' friends have been determined to get an Indictment against the editor of the Times to discredit what the Times may hereafter say touching these trials In open court. Parson Called Conspirator. "The circumstances surrounding the bringing of these Indictments are of a character to convince any candid and unbiased man that Instead of the edi tor of the Times being subject to an Indictment for conspiracy, the only con spirators subject to criticism or Indict ment have been Matthews and his sup porters, who have raked the city for two months In an endeavor to find some thing of a tangible nature to declare against the editor of the Times. "To my friends everywhere, I desirs to say that this Is simply the outcome of a political fight and that the cases will never be brought to trial, the aole purpose being to discredit this publica tion during the trial of the cases now pending before tbe criminal court." Tftappensteln Charges Grow. The grand Jury also returned two ad ditional indictments against ex-Chief of Police Charles Wappenstein. making a total of six now filed- against him. Still more Indictments were returned against Ludovlc Dallaglovannl and Charles Berryman, formerly proprietors of a large dancehall In the old King street vice district. Bail was nxed at $5000 on each in dictment and all the defendants were released on their own recognizance to appear In court tomorrow to furnish bond. The grand Jury adjourned until July . Attorneys for Wappenstein today moved to quash the Indictment charg ing him with accepting a 11000 bribe to permit a disorderly house to oper ate in the Sixth-avenue district last yesr. They argued that the grand Jury was selected Illegally. W. J. Burns, pri vate detective, and Prosecuting Attor ney John F.

A second affidavit filed by Wappen stein sets forth a contention that Su perior Court Judge Main Is prejudiced In the case and that the trial should An opportunity and good judgment is responsible for this sale. - Having purchased many hun dreds of petticoats from this maker we were certain of his tailoring, cut and style. Of his quality we were equally sure, as this manufacturer has the reputation of making none but the best petticoats. Being fortified with the above facts, it was an easy matter for us to make an offer for his entire stock of made-up petticoats. - It is probably the largest single purchase of petticoats ever made by a firm in Portland. Many sell regularly at $3.95, $4.50, $5.00, $6.00 and $6.50 each. Messalines, in plain and stripes, soft taffetas, Persians, Dresdens, Dresden and messaline com binations.

Natural, brown and black. , either be assigned to another judge or postponed until the close of the grand Jury's sessions. In the event Judge Main denies the motion to quash tbe Indictment the attorneys for Wappen stein ask either for a continuance or the transfer of the case. In the Wappenstein affidavit it is set forth that several persons who would testify in his behalf have been Intimidated by Detective Burns and Murphy and have been threatened with prosecution and penitentiary sentences If they did not appear against the po lice chief. The grand Jury Is also de clared to have threatened these wit nesses and the ex-Chief of Police de clares that so long as the grand Jury remains in session he will be unable to call these witnesses or to procure a fair trial. Foreman Church Member. Touching on the disqualification of Judge Main the exeChief of Police re cites the fact that Detective Burns was brought to Seattle by the Rev. M. A. Matthews, and -that the minister has Just Issued a lengthy appeal to the public to sustain his action in bring ing the private detective lib Seattle. The fact that C W. Corliss, foreman of the grand Jury, Is an active member of Dr. Matthews' church and a member shipment of untrimmed milans, of the Board of Aldermen, and that Judge John F. Main was formerly an elder in Matthews' church is also set forth. Dr. Matthews is now attending the National Presbyterian assembly. Astoria May Get Rock Crusher. ASTORIA. Or.. May 23. (Special.)
