S RATTLE, Wash., July 10. (Special.)
Speaking before the National Con
ference of Charities and Correction here
on th minimum wage law and Its pos
sible effect upon the social welfare,
Mr. Anna Y. Reed, a sociolosy expert
of Seattle, startled her hearers by de
claring that the minimum wage has
little or no effect upon the moral wel
fare of. young girls, of the department
store, laundry and factory workers'
class.
She asserted that every decent work
ing girl would resent the public as
sumption that she wag moral on ?8 and
immoral on $6 a week or In other words
that society can pay for her morals at
the rate of $2 a. week.
Mrs. teed completed, this line of 'at-'
tack by pointing out that a. Federal In
vestigation shows that 78 per cent of
delinquency is credited to domestic
service where the girls, the speaker
said, presumably are subject to the In
fluence and guidance In the homes of
the best American women; 17 per cent
to the factory and 3 per cent to the
department store. Mrs. Reed said: .
Character Great Need.
".There is Just one thing that ever
has made, or ever will make, good
morals, and that Is not money, but
character. Good character and good
morals go together money Is' . merely
'Incidental to either. It haa been well
xald that every decent working girl
will resent the public assumption that
she will be moral on $8 per week and
Immoral on $6 or in other words, that
society can pay for her morals at the
rate of $2 per week.
"Again, if the object of the law be
to deal with immorality, why does it
deal specifically with the regulation of
wages within those industries from
which immorality secures the least
recruits? Our law includes only oc
rupations without the home, while a
large percentage of the law-breaking
women come from occupations within
the home
"It is quite customary, when speaking
ot the social evil, to allow the depart
ment store and the factory to bear the
brunt of the criticism. I wonder if this
Is because-we are sure that these, and
certain other occupations are conducive
to, and actually are Increasing Im
morality,' or If it is because we know
that salaries are low and temptations
grrater In these lines, and hence we
Jump both at the conclusion and the
remedy?"
Mrs. Trumbull Spnki.
The report of the committee ou pro
bation, prisons and -parole was read
at the general session of the conference
tonight by Colonel C. B. Adams, super
intendent of the St. Charles (111.) School
for -Boys. Governor Oswald West, of
Oregon, hod been announced to speak
on , "The Honor System of Prison
Irfibor." but was unable to be present
and Mrs.. Millie Trumbull, of Portland,
took his place.
Mrs. Trumbull made a stir in the
audlrnce when she declared that she
Hd not agree" with her fellow towns
man. Circuit Judge W. N. Gatens, who
dcclartd at Wednesday's session that
ha had no use for the application of
psychology to the study of criminals
and defectives. She declared that it
v. as one of the few certain methods, of
ascertaining the nature, the limitations
and the culpability of the prisoners,
many of whom, she Insisted, were land
ed in jails and reformatories through
the blunders or the guile of lawyers
and policemen, to say nothing of
Judges, who knew and cared very little
unfortunates.SCSheralsed a loudTahfWI LS0N - LOST IN WOODS
and much applause when she added:
"I wonder what would happen If the
psychology tdst were applied to the
police, to the prison officials, to the
lawyers and to the Judges who handle
our so-called criminals! What would
we find out about them? What would
they say .or do if the psychology test
were applied to them?"
Tteaulta at Home "Feared."
( And when the applause died away
the added:
"I hope the newspapers don't print
that. . ' I don't know what will happen

FRUIT TO BE SAVED
BY STREET MARKET
DALY SEEKS WAY TO STOP LOSS
BY OVERSCPPLY.
Tons or Edibles Now Condemned to
I'lre Would II nd Way to Con
sumer Under New Plan.
Reports from . the city crematory
that hundreds of tons of spoiled
fruits and vegetables have been burned
in the last few .weeks as a result -of
temporary over supply of the markets,
occasioned the announcement yester
day by City Commissioner Daly that
he would start at once to work out
a plan whereby produce arriving here
when the market is overstocked can
be sold at public auction on the streets.
Details of the system will be submitted
to the Commission at its meeting: next
Wednesday.
At present when produce arrives and
can find no. market it remains in the
cars or in storage houses and often
spoils. It is then taken to the crem
atory and destroyed at considerable
expense.' Mr. Daly proposes to estab
lish ' an ordinance designating some
place in the business district where
auction sales , of such produce may be
held each day between certain hours.
This plan,-he says, will be a great as
set to farmers and to consumers. It
is his plan to have the sales so regu
lated that bad. fruit cannot " be sold
and so that there can be nothing fraud
ulent about the transactions. .
The latest report from Superintend
ent Otis of the crematory shows that
in the bast week there has been burned
at the plant 15 tons of cherries. The
greater - part of. this fruit was con
signed to the Oregon Packing Company
plant on the East Side, where it could
not be handled because of a strike. The
company will lose ' about ' 15000 as a
result. Other consignments of - cher
ries, arriving at a time when the mar
ket was. oversupplied, resulted In the
loss of thousands of dollars to farmers.-

MOUNT TAMALPAIS. Cal., July 10.
The forest fires on Mount. Tamalpais
are out. Here and there linger a few
smouldering fembers, but after four

WAR ON BULGARIA

LONDON, July , 11. The ..King of
Roumania has. declared vfca.r on Bul
garia.' .The Roumanian Minister at So
fia, has been recalled. The Sofia corre
spondent of the Times sends this an
nouncement early this morning.
, It. is expected that Roumania'a first
step -will be the occupation of the 2500
square miles . of territory which she
claims from Bulgaria as compensation
for her. neutrality In the late war. This
strip extends from Turtukal to Balt
chlk,' ori the Black Sea, and Includes
the city of Silistria.
The Bulgarian plan to drive a wedge
between .the Greek and Servian armies
in the neighborhood of Guevghelt has
failed completely.- The last reports of
the fighting received from Athens to
night show' ' that '.the Servians and
Greeks at this, point are combining
their forces, while the Roumanian
army is beginning an invasion of Bul
garia. : i . . , -Bulgarian
' Df saenstona Reported. .
The latter fact doubtless was the-de
ciding factor in the Bulgarian' appeal
to the powetsfor-peace: How far Bul
garia's defeat Is due to -dissensions in
high . military .quarters, . which resulted
in the resignation of -General Sa-voff,
and how far to the fact that the Bui
garlan troops, which bore the brunt
of "the hard fighting In the last cam
paign, wens ' more exhausted - than the
Greeks and Servian forces, will prob
ably never, be. known.
Nothing can be predicted at the mo
ment as to how events will shape them
selves, the. Roumania invasion of Bul
garia having- brought an entirely new
factor into the. problem. Russia and
France are devoting their efforts to
persuading the allies to adopt a mod
erate attitude in order to facilitate a
peaceful settlement.

BROTHERS CLASH
IN POLICE PROBE
Robert Armstrong Ap
pears Before Jury.
CHARGE IS HURLED BACK
Former Commissioner Gives
Inquisitors Evidence.
CAPTAIN - KELLER TALKS
Police Official Admits He and Crad
dock Studied Together but at
Same Time " Always iWas
Wary of Detective's Aims.
Brother lined- up against brother in
the grand jury -probe of municipal
scandal yesterday, when Robert Arm
strong is said to have told the jury
that A. P. Armstrong, County Superin
tendent of Schools and formerly City
Civil Service Commissioner, furnished
him the advance list of questions upon
which Joe Keller and Robert H. Crad
dock prepared themselves, for the ex
amination for a police captaincy.
The charge is hurled back by th
former Commissioner, who said private
ly, and is believed to ' have told the
Jury, that his brother, who is manager
of a billiard room, must have taken,
from his desk, lists which contained
some of the questions to be asked.
Superintendent Armstrong also
brought the name of ex-Mayor Rush
light into the case for the first time.
Ex-Mayor "Wished Keller Well.
"It looks to me," he said, "as if they
were trying to involve Mr. Rushlight In
this thing. It Is a fact that the ex
Mayor did remark to me that he hoped
'Joe would get a good rating, but that
was all that wars said."
Mr. Armstrong went before the jury
at his own solicitation and. probably
will appear again today. What line his
examination took was not disclosed by
Deputy District Attorney Maguire. but
there was an atmosphere of expecta
tion, seeming to Indicate that develop
ments today will, be interesting, to say
the least.
A feature of the-case which has not
been reported upon, but which prob-
ably has been threshed out by the Jury,
is the allegation that Detective Crad
dock spoke of having contributed ?50
or ?100 to Armstrong's campaign him
self. . This charge was made by several
of the young officers who were called
as witnesses with reference to the al
legation that they had been solicited
to pay Armstrong money for ratings
on the eligible list as patrolmen. Crad
dock, while telling frankly of othcr
transactlons, is said to have passed this
off as having been said merely as a
"bluff," but the detective was before the
Jury again yesterday and may have
been questioned on this point.
. Statement Is Withheld.
As to the major charge, that he ac
cepted 20 brought by Detective Crad
dock from C. E. Kllngensmith, an ap
plicant for appointment to the police
force, the nature of Armstrong's vol
untary statement to the grand jury .
has been withheld, and It is probable
that this will be taken up when he re
appears today.
Captain Keller, of the Police Depart
ment, was before the grand jury yes
terday, with reference to the state
ment of Detective Craddock that they
had had an advance copy of the ques
tions to be asked at the captaincy ex
amination and had met at Keller's
house to prepare their answers.
"The fact is." said Keller, before
going into the grand jury room; "that
Craddock came to me, and hemmed and
hawed and scraped the ground with hia
foot for awhile, and then said that he
had some questions that might be
asked at the examination. Naturally,
looked them over. There were IS or
20, and among them were, some how
many I cannot say which were on the
list the following day. Craddock and
I did study together, but I had been
studying for a year and I deny that his
questions were of any materiul as
sistance to me. I was wary at the
time, figuring that Craddock thought I
would be the successful candidate and
then would boost him along for - the
next vacancy." ' -
Xirkkan Now Missing.
L. II. Markham, Armstrong's former
partner, who has been mentioned re
peatedly as a go-between in the case,
is missing from the city at a time when
hia testimony is much desired. That
he knows much of what went on is evi
dent from the statements of the so
licited officers, several of whom tell ot
negotiating with him for the payment
of" money Into Armstrong's campaign
fund.
Ex-Chief of Police Slover was a wit
ness yesterday, and, as Deputy Maguire
denies that he was questioned as to the
bribery charges, is assumed to have
been examined with regard to the 100
per cent efficiency rating he gave
Keller at the examination, when Crad
dock and Sergeant Lyon were rated 00
and the other candidates at 70 or be
low. A tilt has developed between Cap
tain -Slover and Captain Baty over the
responsibility for the attempt to force
policemen to aid the Rushlight cam
paign by subscribing and haing their
friends subscribe to the Daily News.
Slover is said to have attempted to
evade the part of the proposer of this
niovc and "pass the buck" to Baty. but
