The case will be heard at Hutchinson, July 2J. "We assert that the Democrats or any j " other party candidates for elector have as much right to have their names printed under the name, emblem -and circle of the Republican party as a set of men who openly declare they will not support the party nominee in the elec toral college, should they be elected. said Mr. Stanley. Eight electors named before the Chi cago convention have said they would not support President Taft if they are elected. cago, Burlington A Quincy Railroad last Sunday, costing1 the lives of 13 persons, once was confined in the Dun ning asylum, caused Coroner Hoffman to summon her for Investigation to morrow.

"He was Informed that ill-feeling existed between the party who mad the complaint and Mrs. Wilcox, and we concluded that the charge that she was unbalanced was prompted, by malice, not an unusual thing in our expert ence.

Van ; Valkenberg. of Philadelphia, two of his leaders in Pennsylvania, In support of the- plan for placing the same candl dates for Presidential electors on both the Taft and Roosevelt tickets. Colonel Roosevelt said today that he would not recede from the position he has taken in regard to a compromise giving rec ognition to Taft claims in the primary states. The ex-President explained that he had no objection to having the same electors on both the Roosevelt and Taft tickets, as contemplated in the Flinn Van Valkenberg plan, but he objected to any agreement under- which Presi dent Taft should receive the entire elec toral vote of the state in case a great er number of votes should be cast on election day for the Taft ticket than for the Roosevelt ticket. So far as possible It will be left to each state to work out its own arrange strictions imposed by the National com. tions. if the Colonel has his way. will be the provision that there must be no agreement with the Taft forces which will give official recognition to the President as the legitimately - chosen Republican candidate in the states which the ex-President won in the prl maries. He will insist, also that any plan adopted must be nonpartisan and ap plicable to Democratic as well as Re publican organizations in furtherance of his plan to run upon a genuinely in dependent ticket. SUSPECT FREED ON BAIL Police Confident Murder of Gambler Mill Be Solved. NEW YORK, July Is. While the police continue to declare their con fidence that there will be a speedy so lution of the problem of who shot and killed Herman Rosenthal, a gam bler, early Tuesday and what were the motives behind the murder, the net apparent result of yesterday's action on their part was the apprehension of "Bridgie" Webber, an East Side sporting man and his release on small bail after he lia,d been questioned. Webber admitted that he was the man who had heard a suspicious con versation the day preceding the crime between members of a poker party on a steamer excursion, during which threats were made to "get" Rosenthal If he persisted in continuing his revela tions of alleged partnership between the police and the gambling fraternity. After Police Commissioner Waldo had forwarded to District Attorney WTilt man a written request that the latter began "a complete" Investigation of charges of partnership between the gamblers and the police and that mem bers of the force were guilty of in stigating the murder of Rosenthal, the district attorney Issued a state ment declaring that he had never charged that the police were respon sible for Rosenthal's death. SWINDLE CLAIM SETTLED A. B.'Olston, Brought From Illinois, Pays Up and Gains Release. Albert B. olston yesterday was brought back from Evanston, 111., by Detective Craddock. only to be released upon his arrival after paying the amount he is alleged to have secured by the swindle. The swindle Is alleged to have taken place in 1910, and Olston was Indicted in February of this year. By selling SO shares of stock in the Range Boiler Insulator Company, whose assets conststrd of nothing, and by promising a position at $100 a month, Olston Is alleged to have ob tained more than 12400 and title to 130 acres of valuable timber - land from John Wood, of Orenco. It Is charged Olston represented that he would pay 40 per cent in dividends on the stock. Oiston is alleged to have used a woman named White as a catspaw, to In duce Wood to part with his money and land. The woman is said to be a clever worker. She is now believed to be tn Los Angeles, assisting two brothers of Olston In a similar scheme. Wood's claims were settled by John Schram, of Seattle, a brother-in-law of Olston. Thomas McCusker. manager of the progressive Republican campaign com mltte. has rushed to the front to block efforts on the part of promoters of the Roosevelt third party move ment to win over the following and supporters of Senator La Follette. In a letter Issued yesterday, Mr. McCusker denounces the new party and advises all La Follette people to stay away from it. The letter Is as follows: I notice at a meetlnar of the "Third Par ty" advocates, or Bandana Club, last Mon day evening, the gentlemen in question em phaslzed the necessity of inviting the lf Follette - people to Join them in the great DroKressive movement, name v to elect progressive aa President, and as they have written Into their by-laws the name of Theodore Roosevelt, it follows that there is only one progressive In the country. A convention of this faction is called for the near future to elect five delegates in structed for a progressive candidate well hardlv. Instructed for Roosevelt only and there is no other progressive, no one else will be considered. They Invite thj laboring people to Join their club, but inform them in advance that they are Invited In merely out of courtesy and as a great favor to tnem. They invite the La Follette people be cause they need them, and in order to at tract them they name an alleged La Fol lette man as a member of their committee. who says he thinks as much of La Follette now as ne ever din; wnicn l grant is true, but outside of voting for Roosevelt, they will not be considered. Thev remind me of the man who fell In the well and tried to lift himself out by his boot straos. Without wishln- to Influence vour action in any way, I would respectfully suggest that no La Follette man should be in a hurry to loin anv new narty floundering around In a sea of political disappointment headed hv a neraonal Dronoun. Notwithstanding the prophecies to me contrary, the Republican- party will no tne dominant party tour years nence, aixnousu inn nemnnniM nrnv ne'somewnai cnanKeu do not put yourselves In the position of having to knock for readmittance. . .- . If vou desire to vote for a progressive candidate, you will be given the opportu nity and can atlll remain In the party. The letter is one of the results- of the recent meeting of the third party men. at which Mr. McCusker was blacklisted. "They blacklisted me, said Mr. McCusker, "because of an interview printed In a Chicago newspaper, in -which I was wrongly quoted as saying that six of the Oregon delegates were ready to jump from Roosevelt to Taft. What I really said was Just the op posite. The action of tne itooseveit people in blacklisting me saved me the trouble of blacklisting myself. I could not have been a member of the party with out a purging of the role. And now 1 want them to know that although they have burled me, my feet are still sticking out and somebody is liable to stumble over them. As far as the third party Is con cerned I do not believe it will amount to anything." HILLES MEETS LEADERS TAFT HEADQUARTERS TO OPENED IX 'EW YORK.

Charles D. Hilles. chairman of the Re publican National committee, yesterday formally opened the Taft National cam paign In New York. After numerous conferences at the Hotel Manhattan, be ginning with William Barnes, Jr., and continuing down the line until most of the old guard stalwarts had paid their respects, the young manager of the President's cause authorized the open ing of offices In the Times building to- morrow and said that permanent of fices of the committees of the National committee would be chosen Friday. Mr. Hilles said that the suggestion of Rep resentative Rees, of Kansas, looking to the withdrawal of President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt from the race had not gone far. "In fact," said Mr. Hilles, humor ously, "the Colonel halted any serious consideration of the matter by say ing there was a conspiracy on foot to retire him from public life." Regarding the move put forward by William Flinn In Pennsylvania, ex Governor Stokes In New Jersey and George Galther In Maryland to place the same names of Presidential electors on both the Republican and "Bull Moose" tickets, Mr. Hilles became se rious. "Even this early in the campaign I think that any such proposal will be resisted to the limit," he said. "There will be no compromise. I believe such a proposition is opposed to the spirit and letter of the law In the different states." Mr. Hilles has been duly Impressed by the dominating personality of Barnes. He said the Albany man would be on either the advisory or executive committee, but could not saj which. It haa been the custom, Mr. Hilles said, to build the executive committee of members of the National committee. The advisory committee may Include one er two National com mitteemen, but will largely be com posed of outsiders. Not at Home. Kansas City Star.

STAXB Regulars Xow Out Will Be Supported hy Third Party If They Climb on the Bandwagon. For Republican candidates, tor the various state, county and city posi tions, the Roosevelt third-party sup porters in Oregon promise their sup port, - provided the candidates will climb into the third-party bandwagon. This was the announcement Wednes day of Dr. Henry Waldo Coe. one of the Roosevelt supporters who has called a meeting of Roosevelt sup porters for nert week to perfect working organization to begin an active political campaign. Dr. Coe says it Is his desire to have the candidates express their opinions as to which side they want to be on, and he therefore will await with much interest the answer to the question of affiliation which has been put up to the candidates by the county central committee. Candidates who line up with the Taft people will be snubbed by the third-party supporters. Dr. Coe returned from the East Mon day after spending some time visiting Eastern relatives, following the Re publican convention in Chicago. When he arrived in the city he issued a call for the third-party supporters to hold meeting to arrange for a complete organization. "The third party is working on the supposition that the Republican party now stands without a nominee for the Presidency. - This is because President Taft got the so-called nomination by majority of 21. and he had a total of 75 stolen votes. Morally he was not nominated and that Is the basis we are working on. It is our desire to get every one of the candidates on the Republican ticket, from United States Senator on down the list, to show their colors. We want them to come out in public and say whether they are for Taft or for Roosevelt. M e want to know whether they want to take a chance 1th Roosevelt and his 21,000 votes or Taft with his 7000 votes. Whether we will put candidates out in the field or not we have not decided as yet and we probably won't know until we hear from the present candidates. "In the East some of the politicians have talked with have figured out the situation In detail and they de clare that Taft will carry but one state In the Union Rhode Island. He has bare fighting chance in Delaware and New Hampshire, but that is as far as it goes. The Idea of Roose velt regarding the third party does not coincide with a great body of his supporters. It Is necessary to have the third party to get candidates properly placed on the ticket in many of the tates. Out of it may come a great ew party, but the time is too short to absolutely create this party for the present emergency. "In the matter of electors for Oregon the Roosevelt people will take no chances in voting for a set of men, no matter what they say, who are not well known as genuine progressives, who will support the nominee of our convention. The plan probably will bo to put up new men. along with such candidates already nominated, as can be relied upon. This will not be done until after the convention in August.1 KLICK INDORSES WILSON KEXTUCKV ORDER TO WORK FOR DE3IOCRATIC SUCCESS.

As soon as practicable thereafter demolition of the old bridge will be started regardless of pending nego tiations between the railroad company and city and county officials for use of the upper deck of the new bridge. Operation of the lift span in the new bridge was started, suooesslully yesterday morning. Tracks now are being laid across It As soon as this work Is oorapleted, work trains will be run over It. The first train will con sist of a heavy engine and a string of steel oars loaded with ballast to be used In filling the tracks between the west approach and the yards adjoining the Union depot. Engineers say there is no necessity of testing the new bridge, aa they are confident it will operate successfully. 'As soon as the bridge is done It will be ready for train service, said George W, Bosohke, chief engineer of the 0.-W, R. A S, Company, yesterday. We don't have to test It. as it can't be wrong.

It Is probable that street railway traffic will be inaugurated over the the upper deck within the next few months. The O.-W. R. & N. Company and the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company reached an agreement several months ago for a monthly rental of $1600 for the use of the upper deck by the streetcar company. Al though the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company has accepted the terms of the railroad, it has no franchise for approaches on either side of the struc ture. However, Mayor Rushlight said a short while ago that he is willing to have the Council grant a revocable franchise over the streets approaching the bridge pending an agreement for permanent franchises. Negotiations between the O.-W. R. & N. Company and the city and county authorities are no nearer a solution now than ever. The city and county still are in an attitude of "passing the buck" to one another and the railroad officials are not doing muoh to relieve the situation. Tommy at Dinner. Judge.

An army court-martial here began taking evi dence today In the case of Captain Augustus H. Bishop, of the First In fantry, who disappeared from Van couver Barracks, Wash., last , March and reported here at division head quarters one day before he would have been dropped from the lists as a de serter. Because he reported within the time limit, the charge now against him Is that of absence without leave. Captain Bishop is under arrest In quarters. The accused officer's regiment is sta tioned In Honolulu and the necessity of obtaining depositions from there will prolong the trial. The shortage of labor in Australia Is not improving. - 7 ar OTII Best for Biscuit Experienced housekeepers who have tried many dif ferent kinds of baking pow ders, find that Rumford 'biscuits are lighter, whiter and better flavored.
