PORTE WEAKENS, IS BELIEF Rachad Pasha Confers With British Foreign Secretary, With Object, It Is Believed, or Getting; Powers to Intervene. LOXDON. Jan. 20. the Balkan pleni potentiaries are making- no attempt to conceal their Impatience to receive the reply or Turkey to the note of the powers and reiterate their firm deter mination to prevent Turkey from post poning longer than a week the settle ment of the war. Meanwhile the allies are occupying the time with unoffi cial conversations regarding their inter Balkan delimitations. It is asserted that long cipher mes sages received today by Rechad Pasha instructed the Turkish plenipotentiary to confer with Sir Edward Grey. British Foreign Secretary, with the object of obtaining direct intervention of the powers under the form of mediation or some other means so that Turkey may be spared the humiliation of ceding Adrtanople at first hand. Rechad Pasha called today on Sir Edward Grey, but the nature of their conference was not disclosed. Meeting Is Postponed. The meeting of the National As sembly at Constantinople has been post poned until Wednesday and the Porte's reply to the note of the powers will . . -. thi. mflnsr.

Full power to declare the resumption of hostilities against Turkey was tele graphed today to Dr. S. Daneff. leader of the Bulgarian delegation, auu colleagues, by the Bulgarian Premier, i. S. Guechoff. who told them to exer cise it whenever In their opinion fur ther peace negotiations became useless. The representatives of the Balkan al- lies will therefore directly notify Gen eral SavofT. the Bulgarian Commander-in-Chief, that the armistice has ended as soon as it becomes apparent that there Is no hope of the peace plenipo tentiaries reaching a mutually satis factory arrangement. Hostilities will commence four days afterward. The Bulgarians have now discovered that thev have been completely misled in regard to the conditions prevailing In the beleaguered Turkish fortress of Adrianople, and have consequently de cided that, a prompt change in their policy is necessary. .

"If we visited all these ' places we wouldn't have a quorum when we got back." More applause from the gallery. Speaker Taylor announced that the special train would be "dry."

By the adoption of a Joint me morial, requesting the Idaho Legisla ture to suppress horse racing and pool selling in that state, the Washington Legislature hopes to bring to an end the race track conducted at Alan, Idaho, near the Washington state line. A memorial with that purport was in troduced In the Senate today by sena tor Hutchinson and it Is thought will be adopted by both houses. It received the indorsement of the Senate memo rials committee this afternoon. The race track at Alan and the pool selling which is permitted in other parts of the state is described in tne memorial as "a foul blot on your state, which should be wiped out." The inter est of the Washington Legislature In the proposition is the tact that the track Is near Spokane and attracts hundreds of people from that city and other towns In Washington. To the track the memorial attributes the downfall of hundreds of Washington young men. "The Alan race track is a curse to Idaho and Washington." said Senator Hutchinson In introducing the proposed memorial. "It Is really a greater curse to Washington than Idaho because it gains its patronage from Washington. I do- not believe the people of Idaho generally know of the conditions or they would have suppressed the track long ago." Senator Hutchinson asked for the im mediate adoption of the measure, but upon vote it was sent to the memorials committee, which approved it ana win refer it back tomorrow for adoption. It will then be submitted to the House. Proposed liquor legislation broke Into the arena today and started on its regu lar course through committees.

The plan is to let the people pass on the question oi aDoiisn tng all saloons in a community and cre ating a city saloon to be conducted by the city and be managed by persons under direction either of tne Mayor or Chief of Police. The liquor measures are expected to stlr up a lively fuss in both branehes and in the committees. A resolution adopted by the House providing for the hiring of two attor neys to assist in drafting bills and to investigate and determine their consti tutionality met with opposition in the Senate. Senators Bethel and Landon and others attacked the proposal as a plan to throttle bills by the creation practically of a powerful third house. The resolution was referred to the ju diciary committee after a wrangle of a half hour. A Joint memorial was Introduced in the Senate by Campbell asking Con gress to pass legislation at once to check the Influx of undesirable foreign ers to the United States. The me morial explains that the opening of the Panama Canal will Increase .the number of foreigners coming to the Pacific Coast "For the protection of American laboring classes and to keep down the burden of our penal institutions we ask that steps be taken to prevent the threatened Increased Influx of undesir ables,' reads the memorial.

NO DECISION YET OBTAINED Speaker Pratt, Progressive Republi can, Attempts to Pull Wood, Speaker Pro Tem., Out of Chair Amid Tumult. CHEYENNE. Wyo., Jan. 30. In ses sion a week, the lower house of the Wyoming Legislature Is as far from organisation as when It first assem bled. A near-riot and a personal encounter between the permanent and the tem porary Speaker closed a session today marked by an apparent attempt of Speaker Pratt, Progressive Republican, hitherto working with the scant Dem ocratic majority, to secure for himself the control of the committee on privi leges and elections, upon which depends the seating or rejection of three Dem ocratic or Republican Representatives, wh.ch would In turn give either party a majority on Joint ballot and cause the re-election or defeat of Senator Warren. Pratt Nominates Committee. Speaker Pratt nominated a commit tee consisting of himself,-three organi zation Republicans and three Demo crats. A subcommittee nominated by Judge Met a by resolution named four Democrats and three Republicans, elim inating the Speaker. . The Speaker appointed as a commit tee of rules himself and two Republi cans and two Democrats, and on roll call it was apparent the Speaker con trolled the Republicans. The Democrats attempted to put through a test vote on the committee on elections, and the Speaker called a Republican to the chair, whereupon Judge Metz called upon Representative Wood, a Democrat and Speaker pro tern., to take the chair. Speaker Pratt pulled Wood from the chair, assumed It himself, and the House broke into tu mult, with both speakers assuming authority, giving contradictory rulings. Caucus Is Held. After adjournment this afternoon the Democrats caucused on the Metz com mittee and determined to force through the Democratic subcommittee on privi leges and elections. In this e'ent. It is believed the Dem ocrats will proceed to eject three Re publican Representatives from Lincoln County, and then, secure in a majority on Joint ballot, proceed with the elec tion to the united States Senate of John B. Kendrlck, Dem., or of a Pro gressive Republican. TEAL'S CASE IS URGED SEXATOR CHAMBERLAIN' CALLS OX GOVERNOR WILSON. President-elect Says His Mind Is Open on Appointment, but Gives No Clew to Probable Action. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 20. Senator Chamberlain, of Oregon, and Senator Newlands. of Nevada, conferred with President-elect Wilson for an hour and a half at Tren ton today, urging him to appoint a w estern man as Secretary of the In terior. Upon his return to Washington to. night. Senator Chamberlain was not disposed to discuss what transpired at the conference, but admitted he had se. cured no promises from Governor Wil son, and had no Idea who would be ap- pointed Secretary of the Interior, or from what section of the country he will bo chosen. Governor- Wilson said nothing that committed him to any candidate or to any action, but did say his mind was still open on this ap. pointment, and that he was glad to hear from all who could throw any light on the availability of various aspirants. Governor Wilson alluded to a joint letter sent him last week by Western Democratic Senators, but made no comment upon it. Senator Chamberlain said tonight that during the conference with Gov ernor Wilson he strongly insisted upon the appointment of J. N. Teal, of Port land, and that he gave many reasons why Teal is the most available man for this office. He also said that, while Senator Newlands voiced first prefer ence for Clay Tallman, of Nevada, he strongly recommended the appointment of Mr. Teal if Mr. Tallman is not to be considered, and seed that Mr. Teal's ap pointment would be acceptable to him and to other Western Democratic Senators. Senator Chamberlain admitted, how ever, that he came back from Trenton no better Informed as to Governor Wil son's Intentions than before, and he would not venture a guess as to who will be appointed.
