The three men were engaged in busi

son was on a business trip in Mexico
two months ago he was captured by
bandits. He succeeded in getting word
of his plight to his friends In San
Diego, and they set out to secure his
release. They say they accomplished
this by bribery. Later they were cap

of stealing a horse. They escaped but
Barke was shot in the thigh by a Mex
lean soldier and they were recaptured
and taken to the fort at Endlardo,
where they were kept for nearly
month. They escaped and started for
Sonora, but after wandering through
the mountains for five days, came to
Guadalupe, where they obtained pass

But In the meantime the government
had changed and the passports were
worthless. They then were recaptured
and when the letter was written they
were held at Real Castillo, about 40

Building- to Front on Park Block.
That the main entrance to Portland's

WASHINGTON", April 14. Thirty-
three veterans of the Union Army in
the Civil War, who compose the "Old
soldiers' roll" of the Senate, are in

TRADE IN CITY PARALYZED
Gas, Electric, Street-Cleaning Sctt

Brussels Continue In Opera
tion as Usual.
BRUSSELS, April 14. The grout
strike of workingmen In Belgium to
force the government to grant man
hood suffrage began quietly today, and
at nightfall It was estimated that 200..
000 men throughout the country had
quit work. This number is at least
100,000 short of the Socialist predic
tions, and the clerical press is begin
ning to call the movement "a pltlabl
fiasco."
Nevertheless, the strike has shown
greater strength than was expected by
impartial observers, and because of the
fact that the numbers increased as the
day advanced, tt is believed generally
the strikers will be reinforced by sev
eral thousand tomorrow.
Trade Is at Standstill.
The. strike thus far has been un
marked by disturbances or any special '
Inconveniences to the general public.
The gas, electric and street cleaning
services and the streetcars and rail
roads are in operation as usual, but
Brussels merchants say trade Is at a
standstill. The city is full of children
of the provincial strikers who are being
cared for by the families of Liberals.
The only act of "sabotage" occurred
in a suburb where three big machines
In a leather factory were damaged.
Brussels .is not an industrial center.
There are about 50.000 workmen here,
of whom less than 20,000 are out.
Strikers at Charlerot Arrexfed.
Twenty strikers were arrested at
Charleroi today for interfering with
workers. The total number on strlko
there is 60,000 out of 79,000 employed
in the various trades.
The comparatively small number of
strikers at Antwerp Is explained by the
fact that the steamship companies have
been diverting so much business from
this port in anticipation of trouble thut
there is little work to do. It is expect,
ed that the number of strikers will be
augmented tomorrow, although the
clerical workmen's unions are striving
hard to break the strike by offering a
bonus of two francs daily to every mau
working after the first week.
The forces of the strikers at Ghent
were increased this afternoon and at
nightfall there were 9150 on strike out
of 30.OT0.

DICE LEADS TO LIFE TERM
Ex-Convict Makes Throw to Deter
mine as to Plea.
NEW YORK, April 14. A throw of
the dice today sent William Rooney to
prison for the rest of his life unless
he succeeds in getting a parole from
the Board of Pardons. It was the pos
sibility of this parole that left Rooney
undecided between a lite sentence and
one of 10 years with, no possibility of
commutation. -
He was arrested for burglary and
adjudged an habitual criminal, and the
court gave him his choice of pleading
as a second offender and taking the
10-year sentence or as a fourth offend
er and receiving a life sentence with
a possibility of a parole. After delib

Rooney left the decision to the good
