THEORETICAL WAR
RAGES HEAR COAST
Guard Officers to Solve Prob
lems of Actual Conflict in
Annual Encampment.
REGULAR ARMY MEN GUIDE
Company Commander 9 Commended
for Thorough Manner, In Which
Men Have Been Provided
For Camps Sanitary.
CAMP "WEST, near Tillamook, Or..
July 10. (Special.) An "Invasion" of
the United States has been effected
near this point by an "hostile" division
and the American troops are seeking
to delay the advance in the direction of
Portland. This is the tactical prob
lem that has been presented . to the
Third Oregon Infantry, the officers of
which are wrestling with the task of
mertlng the theoretical situation.
Late today the - first tactical battle
was fought east of camp, when the re -treating
troops went into action against
the invaders in an effort to check them,
while valuable supplies were being
driven hurriedly inland. The theoreti
cal conllict was still in progress at the
end of the day's maneuver and will be
resumed in the morning.
Thp campaign, which was formulated
by Lieutenant-Colonel Morrison, United
Etatts Army, is intended to give the
National Guard officers instructions In
tactics which will be of the utmost
value to them In the event of hostili
ties on the Pacific Coast.
Real War Condition Met.
Every condition of actual war Is
tak-iix into consideration in planning
the various theoretical conflicts that
will occur dally until the end of the
week. Battalion and company com
manders, as well as Junior officers, are
calle.3 on to meet constantly changing
situations and emergencies of battle.
Their tactics are then subjected to an
alysis and criticism by the regular
Army officers attached to the camp.
Colonel Morrison is conducting the in
vading force, while the defenders are
directed by Captain Stacey, an Army
tactician of note.
The invading army Is assumed to
have landed in lighters from a troop
of transports convoyed by a battleship
fleet. One regiment has been hurried
forward to attack an American force
of equal strength.
Forres Spar for Advantage.
Preliminary stages of tho situation
having been worked out, both forces
are sparring for tactical advantages.
Every phase of handling troops under
war conditions in the enemy s vicinity
Is thus brought into the instruction
work. . Officers are required to ex
plain what they would do under ever
probable condition of conflict. Serious
emergencies, requiring prompt and de
cisive action, were developed on several
occasions today and as a result the
Guard officers have learned the neces
sity of closer application to the rules
of the campaigning game. Information
of much value is gained through the
detailed tactical solutions given by the
instructors of the Army.
Bright weather made possible the
carrying out of a more elaborate In
struction programme today, the whole
Tegiment being given several hours of
drills In extended order, together with
instruction in battle formations and
normal attack.
Theoretical Soldiers ITaed.
These drills were directed by the
regimental commander, Colonel Martin.
The troops were not utilized in the tac
tical problems, theoretical forces serv
ing the same purpose for the studies
in tactics.
Detailed Inspection of the camp to
day was productive of compliments to
the various company commanders upon
their thorough manner of providing for
the welfare of the men. Kitchen and
messing arrangements wore found to
be exceptionally good, while- the camp
sanitation was without defect. No cases
of sickness have developed In camp.
Tonight a reception and banquet were
tendered officers of the regiment by the
citizens of Tillamook. The affair was
of an informal nature and was held
under the auspices of the Chamber of
Commerce.
MORAL ISSUE, SAYS WOMAN
(Continued, -fronnFlrat Page.)
Century" Joseph P. Byers, Commis
sioner of charities of New Jersey, said:
"Last week in Portland, I sat in a
public gathering and listened to a
sweeping arraignment and general de
nunciation of our penal and reforma
tory Institutions that disturbed me.
First, because there was In the address
a large element of truth and It is the
truth that hurts; and secondly, because
he speaker failed to voice, even If he
recognized the fact, that all of these
institutions are not all bad. He char
acterized our county Jails as the pri
mary schools for Instruction In vice
true, absolutely, and by no means a re
cent discovery our schools for Juven
ile delinquents as the grammar schools,
where the Instruction is continued.
Other Side Is Viewed.
"There Is much to "Be said on the
other side. That our reformatories are
the high schools, where criminal char
acter is furthered, is often true, but
why not speak of the larger number of
cases where criminal habits are uproot
ed by the corrective influence of these
Institutions and of our prisons as the
universities where the higher educa
tion and finishing touches In crime are
received? Too often this Is true. But
why. by implication, leave In the pub
lic mind the idea that the officials of
these institutions are themselves In
structors and teachers In crime? Why
weaken public confidence in men and
women who are fighting your battle
with crime, who are the custodians of
the hundred thousand and more con
victed lawbreakers now in their keep
ing? Why not rather take account of
the good results accomplished by them
in spite of the awful handicaps you
impose upon them in the way of in
sanitary housing, lack of facilities for
classification, political interference and
vicious systems of labor, or, what Is
worse, laws that prohibit or unduly re
strict employment?"
Probation Snbievt DlHuwd.
Frank E. Wade, of Buffalo. In a dis
cussion on adult probation and parole
in New York State, said that after a
thorough study of the history, statis
tics and experience of adult probation
in New York State, he had reached the
conclusion that courts should be given
unrestricted discretion in the selection
of cases to be placed on probation;
that publicly salaried probation otn
oers should be appointed from a com
petitive civil service examination, and
that preliminary investigations, by
probation ofllcers. are essential to pre
pare exercise of probation.
The special section meeting on pa
cific Coast immigration conditions to
day brought out an overwhelming sen
timent against any concessions to Ori
ental immigrants.
Alexander Johnson, general secre
tary of the conference, addressing the
section on children, severely criticised
the practice of some states in spend
in6 11000 per capita in building stale
institutions for defectives. He said:
"When we are face to face with the
problem of providing for perhaps one
half of 1 per cent of the whole pop
ulation, we must get down to a rational
basis of cost."
Levi Meriam, assistant chief of he
Federal . Children's Bureau, contrasted
t he millions appropriated each year
for, the bureau of animal industry with
the 33.500 for the entire work of the
children's bureau.
Professor Theresa TS. McMahon, of
the University of Washington spoke
on "Labor . Exchanges of the Labor
Colonies, and discussion of this sub
ject was led by Professor F. C. Young,
University of Oregon, and A. H. Grant,
or Seattle. .

at Cordray's Theater, Playing
Juvenile Part.
NEW YORK. -Till V 10 Anhv Rnirl.'
cault, actor ana playwright, died "' of
pneumonia today at the New York hos
pital. He had been in poor health for
years. ,
Mr. Boucicault was a son of Dion
Boucicault, a well-known English actor,
and was born in London in 1868. He
came to this country In 1890.
For several minutes after he had been
advised of Mr. Boucicault's death, by
The Oregonian, John F. Cordray could
say nothing but express his sorrow at
the news. It was when Mr. Cordray
was running his own theater in 1893
that Aubrey Boucicault played the ju
venile part the entire season, being,
as Mr. Cordray put it, "a matinee Idol
If eve there was one." '
"It was in his father's plays,
"Conn the Shaugraun" and "Arrah Na
Pogue" that he achieved his greatest
success," said Mr. Cordray. "though he
was also good in the dramatized ver
sion of Oulda's "Mars." He was a dash
ing, fine looking, somewhat slender
young fellow of medium height, and a
great favorite with players as well as
with the public. Charles C. Craig was
the heavy man at the time, Dave Mur
ray was leading man and Victory Bate
man my leading woman.
"I still have locked away the original
manuscripts of those two plays of his
father's. These the son gave me, and
I treasure them greatly as they were
much talked about and well known
throughout the whole country."
ROAD PASSES BLAME ON
NEW HAVES SAYS ENGINEERS
FORCED UNSAFE CONDITIONS.
Criticism by Commerce Commission
of Wreck; at Stamford Brings
Forth; Sharp Reply.
WASHINGTON. July 10. The Inter
state Commerce Commission's report of
its Investigation of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford passenger train
wreck at Stamford, Conn., on June fa.
In which six were killed and 20 hurt,
holds that the railroad was negligent
in placing Engineer Dougherty in
charge of a through passenger train
when he was "inexperienced and uhin
structed." NEW YORK, JuTy 10. The .,ew
Haven road this afternoon issued a
statement in regard to the report of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
on the Stamford accident, in which the
road declares that the Commission
failed to say that "employment of the
inexperienced engineman was practi
cally forced on the New Haven road, by
the engineers of the company."
"In the Fall of 1912." the statement
reads, "an order was Issued to the ef
fect that engineers with less than two
years' experience or two years' rating
as engineers would not be allowed to
run through passenger trains. This
order was protested by the engineers
on the ground that the company had
not adhered to the rule of giving the
engineers 30 days' notice before amend
ing existing rules. '
"The engineers offered the rule
which is now In effect, providing in
stead of two years' experience a re
quirement of one year. Mr. Bardo,
general manager, accepted this amend
ment because it was essential to pub
lic safety that the engineers should get
back to work without having another
long dispute to settle with the com
pany." LANDMARK S00N TO PASS

Mrs. Rlgby, Militant, Also Says She
Committed Dynamite Outrage in
Cotton Exchange "to Show
How Easy It Was."
-..LIVERPOOL. July 10. Mrs. Edith
Rlgby, militant suffragette who has
already been arrested and released on
various occasions after undergoing
hunger strikes, today voluntarily gave
herself up to the police and confessed
dramatically in court to incendiarism.
Mrs. Rigby told of having burned
Sir William H. Lever's $100,000 country
residence at Rivington near Horwlch,
Lancashire, as a "beacon lighted for
the King and the country to see
women suffering an insupportable
grievance." She also confessed to being
ine perpetrator or tne oynamlte out
rage at the Liverpool Cotton Exchange
July 5.
I placed the explosive in the stock
exchange to show how easy it is to
procure them and to place them in
public buildings," she said. "I might
just as easily have blown up the Nelson
monument.
"I chose the Liverpool Cotton Ex
change because the cotton industry has
been built largely by women s labor.
The merchants are willing to get power
and wealth out of the labor of women
while the women themselves are denied
the vote and citizenship. This Is the
first knock at the door. Under the "cat
and mouse act' one of the greatest wo
men in the land is going to be done to
death. If the government Is going to
kill that woman, this is a warning."
Mrs. Rigby has been a member of
the Women's Social and Political Union,
the militant suffragette organization
for many years and has taken a great
part in public movements to promote
the welfare of women; She is the wife
of a physician at Preston.
BOND ISSUE ATTACKED
SENATE FAVORS NEW YORK
CENTRAL IXQUIRT.
Bond Exchange Declared to Saddle
on Lines Burden of $46,713,620
That Shippers Must Pay.
WASHINGTON, July 10 An inves
tigation of the financial operations of
New Tork Central lines by the Inter
state Commerce Commission was pro
posed in a resolution passed by the
Senate. This action was taken with
out debate when the resolution was
Introduced by Senator Norris, of Ne
braska. The resolution. If concurred In by
the House, would direct the Commis
sion first to investigate and report on
the issue by the New Tork Central &
Hudson River Railway Company of
I16XJO2.400 worth of 4 per cent mort
gage bonds for the purpose of taking
up S 1-3 per cent Michigan Central
bonds amounting to $19,336,000, 3 per
cent Lake Shore & Michigan Southern
bonds amounting to $90,578,400 and
New York Central 4 per cent debenture
bonds amounting to $97,188,000.
The Commission would be asked to
report whether the Issue of the 4 per
cent bonds for 3 per cent would
not be an unwarranted and Illegal cap
italization of railroads concerned,
whether the purpose of the consolida
tion of the New York Central and

walking out of this
the Lake Shore and Michigan Central
would not be unwarranted and unlaw
ful; and whether the increase in in
terest is necessary even If the consol
idation Is unobjectionable.
Senator Norris had prepared data
which he declared shows that the 3V4
per cent bonds in question do not
expire for 85 years, and that the ex
change of 4 per cents for 34 per cents,
dollar for dollar, would saddle onto
the lines as an additional permanent
debt, on which shippers must pay rates
the equivalent of $46,713,620.
He was prepared to call attention
to the recent request of the New York
Central, on the Commission to be al
lowed to increase freight rates and had
figures to show that the fixed charges
of the New York Central amounted to
59 per cent of the road's income, as
compared with about 26 per cent for
the Union Pacific and 29 per cent for
tne Pennsylvania.

Delegation Tells Chairman Henry
Suffrage States Cast Sixth of
Electoral Vote and 4,000,000 -Women
