Conu-nllon Is That Trial Is
Matter for Co art.
SAX FRANCISCO, July 20. Governor
Johnson said today that he would give
hl decision on Saturday morning In
the extradition of Louis J. Wilde, the
Sail Diego banker, to Portland. Or- to
answer a chance of having embezzled
$.000 from the Oregon Truet A
Savings Bank.
The reason for postponement, the
Governor said. lay In the novel ques
tions presented, which require further
(tudy.
The unusual spectacle of the Got
imor of a state sitting as a court to
pass not only upon the form of an ex
tradition demand, but upon the sub-
tance of the Judicial findings upon
which the extradition Is based, has
caused general comment, not only la
legal circles, but throughout Fan Fran
rlsro generally.
Ills; QurMlon ArlM-.
Whethe Governor Johnson, who has
eeen conducting such a hearing, would
have given several days of his time to
the extradition papers bad Wilde not
been a Johnson appointee, none pre
sumes to sy. WUde Is a member of
the State Commission appointed by
governor Johnson to supervise the ex
poBllture of the 1:50.609 appropriation
made by the slate fur the benefit of
the I'anama Canal Exposition at &aa
I'lrgo.
District Attorney Cameron, of Port
land, has argued before Governor
Johnson that the Indictments of an
other state should be respected and
that the extradition should be honored,
the papers being In regular form. Ac- ;
companylng Cameron Is TVputy heri3
Leonard, one of Portland's experienced
thief-takers, ready and willing to escort
Wilde back to Portland to atand trial.
Assisting Cameron In the argument be
fore the Governor has been Charles
Jones. Assistant Attorney-Oeneral of
California. But In spite of the uniform
custom of Governors to honor requlsl
tlon demands of other states, there Is
muoh hope In the Wilde camp that
Johnson will send Leonard Back empty
handed and retain Wilde upon the State
Commission.
While no Indication has been given
by Johnson how he will decide the Is
sue, his demeanor and expressions at
the hearing today seemed to denote a
groping for an avenue by which he
might Justify himself In refusing to
lonor the requisition. The Governor
said several tl.nes during today's hear
ing that he wanted to assure himself
that an crabexxiement had been com
muted. lKTcrnor ALs Qnolions.
As all the attorneys were In the
room the Governor said he would first
like to clear op a few points. He then
asked District Attorney Cameron, of
Portland, why so long a time had
tlapsed before finding an indictment
tgainst Wilde, and whether there would
lave been a prosecution If WUde had
lettled with Stow, the principal witness
Tor the state. Cameron answered that
he knew nothing about the financial
.roubles between WUde and Stow, but
ould say that the state did not obtain
the evidence needed to Indict until
lately.
Ia response to the Governor's ques
tion whether WUde could not obtain a
.'air trial In Portland. Attorney Wilson
jf that city said he thought not. De
positors still blame Wilde for the
bank's troubles, he found, and besides
this, he feared the recall would In
fluence the courts against the alleged
smbexsler.
I "arts -V ff Courts.
It Is the contention of attorneys
that the Governor his no business
inquiring Into the facts of the Indict
ment and that It Is for the courts of
foa to say whether or not an em
texsiement has been committed.
Ia discussing the case District At
torney Cameron said: "In the case of
owttt. indicted In connection with the
recking of the same bank. Governor
3hffrota.of Colorado, honored requisi
tion papers In precisely a similar situa
tion. Governor tha(roth said that If
the form of the extradition papers was
t.l risht and the Indictment regular,
ae could not go behind the Indictment
to Inquire Into the facts.
The Governor of California has ad
mitted that the papers are la proper
form and that we are not here to try
the case. I cannot understand, then,
why we do not have our papers honored,
so that we can return to Portland with
Wllde."

LONDON, July 20. Amended In par
ticulars so vital that a crisis with the
Commons is sure to be forced, the veto
bill u passed today without division
by the House of Lords. The changes
made by the unjer body will be sub
mitted to the lower house, and. It is
thought, will be sent back next week
with a demand for recession from the
amendment.
It is this contingency that may impel
Premier Asqulth to ask the King to
create enough new Barons to insure
the success of the government. The
situation has been foreseen ever since
the Issue first arose,
The "Insurgent" peers held a caucus
today under the leadership of the Earl
of Halsbury, and a strong feeling was
expressed that If the Houee of Com
mons struck otu the Lords' amend
ments the Upper Chamber should insist
on them, even to the extent of forcing
the creation of a host of new barons.
The last ditchers," therefore, have
not been squared yet. so the real crisis
may still artee on July 25, when the bill
is returned to the House or Loraa lor
final acceptance or rejection.
Lord Morley In moving the adoption
of the measure this afternoon disasso
ciated the government from the amend
ments introduced in the upper chamber.
Despite all the transformation which
the bill had undergone. Lord Morley
naiil he hoDed and believed it would
receive a third reading. He concluded
"I would like to have this inevitable
through without anything like a social
shock. I do not mean a superficial
shock, but a real wide reaching social
shock."
Thl was the only passage in Mr.
Morley's speech which could be con
strued Into a reference to the possible
creation of Peers.

BUILDING PLANS UNDER WAY
Schwarzchild & Sulzberger
Announce Big Plans. i
STOCKYARD SHARES TAKEN
Lehman Levy, Construction Enci
ncer of Important Firm, Approves
Place Chosen Xear Swift Prop- j
erty City to Be Center. !
Official announcement of the imme.
diate construction of a packing plant
on the Peninsula to cost $600,000 was
made yesterday by Lehman Levy, gen
eral construction engineer for Schwarz
child & Sulzberger.
Mr. Levy spent the day in inspect
ing the situation relative to shipping
facilities and stockyard accommoda
tions. Selection of the ten-acre tract, just
south of Swift & Company's plant, aa
the sits for the proposed Schwarzchild
t& fcuizDerger plant met with Mr. Levy a
approval as being adequate for the op.
eratlons of the Chicago packers.
Tentative plans for the various
buildings have been drawn by one ol
the company's packing-house archi
tects in Chicago. According to Mr.
Levy, It will be necessary to make only
minor changes in the plans. As soon
as the new plans are approved the
company will proceed with the con
struction of the plant with all rea
sonable speed.
City's Position Wins Plant.
It Is the purpose of the company to
install a plant that is modern in all
details. While the plant will not be
as large as some of the company's
Eastern establishments, it will be the
largest and best equipped of any on the
Pacific Coast. One of the important
features of the enterprise will be the
preparation of products for transporta
tion to foreign markets.
The strategic location of Portland aa
a shipping center and as a common
point for the assembling of stock from
the Northwestern States was the chief.
factor which won the plant for this
city. It Is expected that a part of the
plant will be ready for use by the
first of next year. Until the buildings
are ready, the company will continue
to operate at Its temporary location at
the Zimmerman plant in South. Port,
land.
Stockyard Shares Obtained.
By an arrangement made between
Frank Sulzberger and Louis Swift, the
company has obtained ownership of
25 per cent of the stock In the Union
Stockyards Company and title to about
ten acres of land. This plan places
Schwarzchild & Sulzberger on an equal
basis with Swift & Company in the
operation of their business here.
The entrance of Schwarzschlld & Sulz
berger into the Northwest territory is
considered not only of great Importance
to Portland's Industrial situation, but
also to the fact that it will stimulate
the stock-raising Industry In Oregon ts
considerable extent. Since the Union
Stock Tarda was established in Portland,
one of the notable effects has been in
creating an open market for livestock.
With Schwarzschlld & Sulzberger operat
ing In Portland, It is believed that th
competitive market will be made much
stronger, with the result that the Puget
Sound buyers will be eliminated from
the Oregon field altogether.
Representatives Long Here.
The company has had representative!
in Oregon for more than two years.
On the showing made by them the Chi
cago packers became Interested in th
situation here. Mr. Levy said yesterday
that the possibilities for a great live
stock center in Portland were enormous.
He believes that eventually Portland
will become the base for the livestock
trade with all of the Important Paclfio
markets on both hemispheres.
"I have found the situation here ex
tremely favorable for our plant," said
Mr. Levy. "We feel that we are wanted
by your people, but we are even more
anxious than are the citizens of Port
land to get established in this city. For
that reason we will proceed with the
construction of the plant with all reason
able speed. In fact, the work on tha
foundations for the buildings will be
started before the present plans are
revised.
Plant to Be Complete.
"We will build a complete packing
plant with all the necessary buildings
and equipment. The plant will be fully
as big as the Swift property, and will
represent an Investment of between
$500,000 and $600,000. We have 10 acres on
which to construct the buildings.
"Our company has for some time re
garded Portland as a most desirable
and logical field for a plant of the pro
portions we shall build. There is no
question but that Portland has wonder
ful commercial possibilities. We are
coming to your city amply prepared and
equipped to participate in your business
activities and to share with you the
prosperous conditions prevailing in your
oitiV"
