ANGLERS, HELD UP,
USE DRINK AS BRIBE
Masked "Highwayman" With
Big, Revolver and Torch
Stops Three Auto Parties.
FISH, NOT MONEY, WANTED
Water Bailiff Repents When Bottle
or "Rare Old Rye" Is Mentioned.
Intruder Dumped by Road
as Whisky Runs Out.
GRANTS PASS. Or., July 20. (Spe
cial.) Three automobile parties were
held up on the road between Grants
Pass and Savage Rapids Wednesday
night, by a masked "highwayman" who
confined his "touch" to one bottle of
whiskey. The story of the "holdup"
did not become public gossip until to
day, when some members of the party
decided the joke was too good to keep.
Bob Taylor, of Medford, a. water
bailiff, is said to be the bojd "hold-up"
man and he was looking-for fish in
stead of cash. That is, Taylor though
he wanted flsh until he was approached
and "fell" for the bottle bribe.
Those in the first party held up were
ex-Mayor Myers, Deputy District At
torney Johnston, ex-Police Judge
Opdyke and B. M. Hall. It was Judge
Opdyke who saved the flsh.
The party was returning from an
angling trip to Savage Rapids when
they saw a torch blazing in the road.
The machine was stopped in the belief
that another automobile was in dis
tress. As soon as the car stopped the
torchbearer boarded the running board
and brandishing- a. big revolver, ordered
the motorists to hold up their hands.
They obeyed. Taylor wore a black
mask and members of the party say
he had been drinking. Judge Opdyke
caught a whiff of the "highwayman's"
breath, and with his hands still point
ing to the stars, suggested that the
fellow might like a nip of "rare old
rye."
Taylor acquiesced instanter. He for
got all about his designs on the fish
baskets and consented to Join the party
in a little Joy-ride. The bottle Judge
Opdyke had offered did not last long
and when it was empty the fishermen
had no difficulty in rolling their guest
to the roadside.
In the second party "held up" were:
E. IS. Dunbar and I. A. Robie, book
keeper and manager respectively of the
California Pine Box Company. They
also had been fishing in Rogue River.
Taylor had Just revived from his state
of coma at the roadside when the sec
ond automobile appeared. He still wore
the black mask and brandished a torch
in one hand and the revolver in the
other. The pockets " of Dunbar and
Robie were searched after Taylor had
gone through the flsh baskets and
found nothing.
Then came a touring party whose
names could not be learned. It is not
known whether Taylor relieved the
tourists of their valuables.
Taylor is said to have been sent to
Josephine County to watch for viola
tors of the fishing laws.
BLAME GIVEN TO DANIELS

and our propaganda were directed was
not one of flags, but of bread."
Socialists Blame Newspaper.
The memorial then reviews condi
tions in Seattle and alleges that a Se
attle newspaper has bent its energies
"toward the creationand infuriation of
a criminal, lawless and intemperate
mob to avenge itself upon us, .to de
stroy our liberties, offices and book
stores and to threaten our very lives."
Then taking up the visit of Secre
tary Daniels and hi3 speech at the
Rainier Club Thursday night, the mem
orial says:
"Our propaganda and our educational
efforts steadily prospered under the
daily fire of abuse and misrepresenta
tion until the coming to this city of
Mr. Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the
Navy, who on Thursday evening, July
12, delivered himself of an ill-considered
address. With vessels of the Pa
cific fleet at anchor in the harbor here,
with sailors and officers, on shore
leave, the speech amounted to and had
the early effect of most incendiary ut
terance, resulting almost immediately
In the sacking and destruction by fire
of our several organization headquar
ters. Hlgat to Speak Questioned.
"We question the practice of Gov
ernment officials speaking on public
questions to private clubs from which
the public is excluded. Although de
livered at the private club, extracts of
the speech quickly appeared in all
newspapers, with the lawless and de
structive results outlined.
"Due directly to the official emi
nence of the Secretary,- his authority
and Influence over such a large
number of naval men not ordinarily
a contingent of the city's population,
the Secretary's words afforded just
the spark needed to inflame the
artlflciallzed conflagration and at the
same time had the effect of making
cowards of the civil police and render
ing them unable to cope with the pro
gramme of riot, arson and destruction."
Socialists Shift Blame.
The memorial then recites that a
secondary cause was the attack made
on tlwee soldiers by a crowd about a
street speaker on Washington street
Thursday night. This meeting, it Is
declared, was not conducted by the So
cialist party, "and therefore cannot
be presented as an extenuation of the
lawless, riotous and unwarranted in
terference with our orderly and law
ful processes by naval and military
fragments under what appears to have
been probably foreknowledge upon
the part of those in authority, for at
the very time the riotous destruction
was proceeding, the Secretary and Ad
miral Reynolds were dining together
aboard the West sVirginia."
Concluding the memorial says:
"We therefore, after . due delibera
tion, place responsibility upon "the
Secretary of the Navy, Mr. Josephus
Daniels, who is already making efforts
to explain. But we submit, Mr. Presi
dent, that no amount of explaining can
restore to us our estate in both moral
and physical particulars held by us
prior to disasters resulting from his
remarks."
Mayor Cotterlll's emergency order
forbidding street meetings today was
the only one not overruled by Superior
Judge Humphries yesterday and It
was rigidly enforced by the police.
Charges that the riots were the re
sult of "unofficial orders issued to the
men of the Paciflo reserve fleet" were
made by speakers at a meeting of the
Seattle Open Forum on the campus of
the University of Washington today.
Several members of the Socialist par
ty and of the Industrial Workers of
the World were present and said they
had been warned of the disturbance
Friday night by members of the In
dustrial Workers of the World, who
were sailors on the cruiser Chatta
nooga. One speaker declared that he
saw an Army officer in uniform stand
in automobile and shout "Good work,
boys, good work" to the sailors as
they passed him at Fourth avenue and
Pike street.
Councilman Oliver T. Krickson
blamed the police for the trouble and
charged them with inefficiency for not
having broken up the mob.

PEKIN, July 20. The Chinese gov
ernment is still dispatching troops to
subdue the revolutionary movement in
the disaffected southern provinces, but
has not withdrawn any soldiers from
Mongolia.
President Yuan Shi Kai is anxious
to proceed south to lead his troops, but
his associates have persuaded him to
remain in Pekin, for fear that he might
be assassinated on the way to the
scene of hostilities.
It now is generally believed that
General Sun Yat Sen. former provis
ional president of the republic, who
has taken sides with the southerners
and who is now at Nanking, and Gen
eral Huang Sing, former generalissi
mo of the revolutionary army, never
intended to support President Yuan
Shi Kai permanently, but only to use
him to bring the revolution to a suc
cessful end.
HONGKONG, July 20. Governor FI1
Chan, who at Canton has proclaimed
the independence of the province of
Kwang Tung, charges President Yuan
Shi Kai with having committed 12
crimes. The list includes the contract

Russo-Chinese treaty on Mongolia with
the possible abandonment of Outer
Mongolia.
Business has almost been suspended
and there is much apprehension for
the future.
LONDON, July 21. Ten warships, in

The difficulty over the paving of

DIRECT ELECTION
METHOD LACKING
Failure of States to Provide
Machinery Complicates
Situation. .
DEMOCRATS ARE ANXIOUS
Legality of Action of Governor of
Maryland in Assuming Right to '
Issue Writ Questioned by
Lawyers in Congress.
. WASHINGTON. July 20. Complica
tions are predicted as certain to arise
over the installation of the direct elec
tion method for the selection of United
States Senators. Most -of the trouble is
expected to result from the failure of
State Legislatures to provide prompt
and appropriate methods for carrying
out the recent amendment to the Con
stitution. Leaders of the Senate majority are
anxious about the situation. Should
two or more vacancies on the Demo
cratic side of the chamber occur the
narrow margin of power !n the body
would be gone.
Many States Remiss.
There are 32 Senatorial terms- which
will expire on March 3, 1915. Some of
the states affected already have pro
vided a method of popular election of
Senators, but a. great number of them
have not, and vacancies caused by death
or resignation may call at any time for
a popular selection from states which
have not yet acted.
The Texas Legislature has been called
to meet in a special session to con
sider, among other things, the passing
of laws for election machinery in ac
cordance with the amendment. The
Governor of Maryland has decided he
Is empowered under existing laws to
issue a writ of election to fill the unex
pired term of the late Senator Rayner,
Senator Jackson now is serving by des
ignation of the Governor.
Ioue RalMd In Maryland.
Such constitutional lawyers of the
Senate as Senators Root and Suther
land are sard to entertain doubt as to
tha power of the Governor to issue the
writ, and the appearance of a. new Sen
ator from Maryland to take the oath of
office may mark the initial fight in tue
Senate over the Senatorial election ma
chinery. The situation is complicated by the
amendment further limiting the Gov
ernor's power to fill vacancies in the
Senate. In the past a Governor has
filled vacancies occurring when the
Legislature was not in session. Here
after a Governor may not fill a vacancy
unless the Legislature of his state has
empowered him to make temporary ap
pointments until the people may fill
the vacancy by election.
"HIKERS" REACH SALEM
DAX O'LEARY LEADS AT EXD OF
5 3-MILE WALK.
Foot Trip From Portland to State
Capitol in 13 Hours and
48 Minutes.
SALEM, Or., July 20. (Special.)
Dust covered and with perspiration
washing streaks down their faces, five
stalwart pedestrians with the famous
Dan O'Leary in the lead reached Salem
this afternoon at 2:48 o'clock as the
mercury was making, desperate efforts
to reach the 100-degree mark. They
sauntered up to the State House, where
ended a jaunt of 53 miles, the start
having been made at 3 o'clock in the
morning from The Oregonian building.
The time was 12 hours and 48 minutes,
the walkers having announced when
they left Portland that the distance
would be covered in 12 hours flat.
"We could have made it in the time
prescribed," said the veteran leader,
"but it was a hot day and I didnot
try to walk the men fast. It wasfun
for me, and I think the others enjoyed
the trip, too. There is no use talking,
walking is the best exercise for' men,
women and children. A man who has
been ill can do nothing better than
take a long walk as soon as he gets
on his feet."
The members of the party, besides
O'Leary, were George Leonard, of Chi
cago; Charles Olmstead, of Oregon
City; Thomas Furlong, of San Fran
cisco, and H. L. Hanfian, of Stock
ton, Cal.
FAITHFUL GREET "DANIELS
Continued from Page One'.)
Nation will be stationed in Pacific
waters, and it is probable that a move
ment will be put under way at the
dinner for a greater recognition of
Portland's availability for naval uses.
Secretary Daniels' trip through the
West was designed primarily to give
him an opportunity of inspecting the
Navy-yards on the West Coast, as, he
already has made an inspection of the
yards on the Atlantic seaboard. Be
fore he left Washington, Mr. Daniels
said he wanted to learn something of
the capabilities of the yards on the Pa
cllic, and also gather information as
to the needs of additional yards or
yard facilities.
Secretary Daniels beamed broadly
on his fellow Democrats when he men
tioned the direct election of Senators,
and said that it would be the means in
several states at the coming election
of displacing Republicans with those of
their own political faith. .
Oregon Declared "All Right."
"But Oregon is all right already, with
two Demorcatic Senators and a Demo
cratic Governor." he added.
"Not bad for a Republican state, is it.
Secretary?" chuckled Colonel Robert A.'
Miller, "and there's Washington, more
Republican territory, with a Democratic
Governor." . -
In the opinion of Secretary Daniels
the Administration currency bill will
pass with little trouble.
"It will simply be agreed to in Dem
ocratic caucus," he said, "the Repub
licans will be given a chance to re
lieve their minds concerning it, and it
will be passed."
"Do you know John Burke, of the
Treasury, former Governor of North
Dakota?" asked Collector of Customs
Burke.
"I know him well," said the Secre
tary. "He is one of Democracy's ablest
orators."
"He is my brother," said the collec
tor, proudly.
Although the time was short, men
tion of the weather was inevitable.
"Cold" Brings Criticism.
With a perfectly straight face. Sec
retary Daniels said that he was anxious
to get to Southern California, as "this
cold Northern climate did not suit his
So'uthern blood."
Colonel Miller inferred that the Sec
retary was poking fun at the heat that
he encountered in Portland, "Summer
capital of America," and like a gallant
native Oregonian, leaped to the defense
of the Oregon climate.
"It's hot today all right," he said.
"We have a few hot days in the Sum
mer, but the nights are always cool."
Municipal Judge Stevenson led the
grins as the Colonel continued, warmly:
"And you must not forget. Secretary,
that we are only 60 miles from the sea
here in Portland. Every day at 4
o'clock a sea breeze comes up and blows
for an hour, and cools us right off.
Yes, indeed!"
The grins -widened as Secretary Dan
iels drew and consulted his watch.
Sea Breeze Disappoints.
"Your sea breeze is Just an hour and
50 minutes late today," he said gravely.
- Secretary Daniels wore a dark suit
with a necktie of the time-honored
type affected by Democratic states
men a black band tied in a sprawling
bow. He speaks with a slight South
ern drawl, slowly and deliberately and
in a low voice. He carries a black
cane, on which, for no apparent rea
son except that it is a cane, he leans
picturesquely.
Mrs. Daniels remained on board the
Pullman.
OLDEST CHURCH FOUND
EXPLORERS MAKE FIXD OFF
COAST OF YUCATAN'.
Small Camera, Held In Water by Tall
Scientist, Records Key to
Early Language. .'
NEW ORLEANS, July 20. (Special.)
The ruins of the oldest Christian
church in America have been discov
ered on the Island of'Cozumel. off the
Coast of Yucatan, by Professor Syl
vanus G. Morley and Jesse Nusbaum,
of the Harvard-San Diego expedition.
Cozumel has not been visited by white
men for almost' a century, and Morley
and Nusbaum had thrilling adventures,
but deny that its people are cannibals.
The scientists were equipped with a
moving-picture outfit, but when they
left the Island for the mainland their
canoe was upset and much of the pho
tographic material was spoiled. Nus
baum, however, who is tall, held a
smaller camera above his head as he
made the mainland and saved the
plates of the Mayan ruins, which threw
much light on the early civilization of
Southern Mexico. Morley is at work
deciphering the "inscriptions and be
lieves he has found a key to the
Mayan language.
While Cozumel Is only 30 by 7 miles
in extent, it was found extraordinarily
rich in monumental architectural re
mains. It was here that Cortez had
a fierce battle with the natives end
erected what is declared to have been
the first Christian church in America.
The material gathered by th expe
dition will be displayed at the S-ih
Diego Exposition and after that find
permanent place in the Harvard
Museum and the Museum of the S-.hool
of American Archaeology in Santa Fe,
New Mexico.
REAL FOX HUNT DEPICTED
Headline Film at Columbia Theater
Is Full of Thrills.
A real fox hunt, with" a real fox
doubling his trail and throwing the
hounds at fault: a burglary, a riotous
scene on the Stock Exchange, a fly
ing leap . from horseback to a fast
moving train and a death struggle on
the rear platform are Just a few of the
thrillers in just one film at the Colum
bia this week.
A chemist has discovered a. formula
which will revolutionize the cement In
dustry, and the concrete trust wishes
to buy it, but is repelled. The head of
the trust, playing on the love of his
daughter and the chemists's young
brother-in-law, beguiles the youth into
a burglary. The chemist's wife dis
covers the act and begs a friend to
get the stolen paper back, and then
chase begins. Thrill follows thrill as
the chase of the fox and the chase of
the burglar cross arid re-cross. All
comes out right and ail is forgiven, it
goes without saying.
Scarcely less- stirring is a Western
"cow-puncher" scene, while a bibulous
clubman, and a young bride whose
husband's friends send all the trades
men in town to the honeymoon flat,
furnish the laughs of the bill.

Mexican, appeared at the home of A.
Y. Smith, 10 miles southwest of Al

Later he denied this story and so
meager is his supply of English that
It has not been ascertained Just how
he sustained the wounds. Those who
have talked to the man say he does
not appear to be insane.
Sheriff Bodine has gone to the Smith
home to arrest the stranger. When
he told the story St the killing the
man said he had killed the men on
the railroad and this led to the be
lief that a fight had occurred among
foreign railroad laborers. But no re

BOARD SEESWAY TO
SATISFY TRAINMEN
Proposal Made to, Take Up
Employes' Demands Before
Those of Roads.
CONSENT IS EXPECTED
Willingness of Men Unofficially Ex
pressed, While Managers, It Is
Believed, Will Xot En- -ter
Objection.
NEW YORK. July 20. An agreement
to arbitrate first the wage and other
demands of the trainmen and con
ductors against the Eastern railroads
and then to take up the roads' griev
ances against the men is the probable
outlook of conferences to be held here
tomorrow between members of the me
diation board created by the Newlands
act and representatives of the employes
and of the roads, according to opinion
tonight.
Judge William L. Chambers and G.
W. Hanger, the two members of the
board already confirmed by the Senate,
will arrive here tomorrow when the
conferences will begin. The business
at hand- will be to frame a stipulation
acceptable to both sides as to questions
to be arbitrated.
Employes Aro Insistent.
The employes assert that only their
demands, which have been the subject
of negotiations for months, shall be
taken before the mediation board. The
railroads, on the other hand, have pre
sented demands for changes in existing
agreements with their employes in
matters outside the sphere of the pres
ent controversy for arbitration. A. B.
Garretson and W. G. Lee, the heads of
the conductors and trainmen's organ
izations, declared that the men will not
agree to simultaneous arbitration - of
the roads' demands, announcing that
should the roads persist in their de
clared intention of pressing their griev
ances at this time, the strike recently
authorized by vote of the employes
would be called at short notice.
Separate Action Likely-.
In view of the attitude of the men,
belief exists that the mediators will
recommend an agreement to take up
first the men's demands and after these
have been decided by the arbitral body
to give the railroads their day in court,
as it were, and settle this dispute in
separate arbitration.
The employes unofficially have indi
cated a willingness to let matters take
this course and it is not believed the
conference committee of managers,
which i3 handling the dispute for the
roads, will offer serious objection.
