Thirteen engines pumped water by the ton Into the cellar. In the mean time amoke coming out of the windows of the upper stories led many to sup pose that flames had shot up the ele vator shaft and were gaining headway there. The fire at no time, however, established a foothold above the first floor, though at one crisis it looked as If it bad got beyond control.

A clash occurred yesterday between the police and Peter Mcintosh, chief probation officer of the Juvenile Court, over two youths arrested by the po lice Thursday night on a charge of burglarising a small grocery store on Milwaukle avenue. It ended by Mr. Mcintosh curtly informing the two pa trolmen who made the arrest that any time Chief of Police Clark wished to Interview him h could be found at the Courthouse during business hours. The dispute was over whether for mal -complaints should be filed against the lads. As both have positions and h. not been In trouble before, Mr. Mcintosh wished to dismiss them with a warning, especially as xney naa tnin onlv a small Quantity of tobacco. There was evidence also that the lads had been led Into the burglary by an older boy who recently arrived from Laos Angeles and. who has not been captured. Boys Moat Face Court. The natrolmen who made the ar rest however, insisted on a complaint being lodged In Juvenile Court and they were supported In this attitude by Chief Clark. Mr. Mcintosh finally gave way with the result that the lads will appear today before Judge Gatens and there will be a record against them in Juvenile Court It was this record which the probation officer wished to avoid. In announcing his views Mr. Mcin tosh was following a settled policy of the Juvenile Court, which never brings delinquents before Judge Gatens for first offenses unless they are particu larly flagrant Often second and third and even fourth offenses are handled by reprimands and warning.

Yesterday a boy 18 years of age, Dale and emaciated, a victim of the white plague, called on Mr. Mcintosh to ask for transportation to Southern California. He said that he had Just been released from the Washington State penitentiary at Walla Walla. It was there that he contracted the dis ease. The boy declared, and In this he was borne out by an older man who ac companied him, that he had been sen tenced to tbe Washington state train ing School at Chehalis, Wash., a couple of years ago and had been transferred to Walla Walla because or overcrowd ing at. the Chehalis Institution. He was sent to the Associated Charities. "I believe that lad's story," said Mr. Mcintosh. "If that is the way they treat juvenile delinquents in Washing ton then I am thankful that I live In Oregon."

A poll of the party tonight reveals three Scandi navians, three Irishmen, two Germans, two Jews, an Italian and a few who were born In the United States. Rival ry between the various races is in tense. A contest has developed between the Scandinavians ana the Irish for the story-telling honors. The Scandinavi ans would be easy winners, but they don't do the team work like the Irish. Tbe trouble is that Bill Strandborg and H. J. Langoe continuously try to Job J. Lv Wallin. allowing John X. uou- gall, George O'Connor and P. IS. bum- van to take the money. The special train was about two hours behind schedule most of the way today, and it is largely the fault of Wallin.

Harris, Mayor of Willanrlna, conducted the party through the enter prising little city, which is less than three years old. In return for his hos pitality the boys tried to "shanghai" the Mayor, on board the train when it left for Dallas. President Strahorn will join the par ty at Corvallis tomorrow morning. Meanwhile the boys are under the pro tecting wing of Mark Woodruff, his Industrial agent and George O'Con nor, general superintendent W. T. Buchanan, of Portland, also Is expected tomorrow.

"It is beyond my power to barter away any of the functions attaching to the office in which I am placed by your Impeachment Any attempt on my part to do so or to stipulate a method by which it might be done would properly place me in the position you now oc cupy that of being Impeached for mal feasance in office. I cannot and will not attempt to do it "Lower Courts" Spnrned. "The entire matter is now in the highest court of the state the court of Impeachment No order that any lower court could make, no Judgment that it could render, would have the slightest binding force upon this high court No member of .the Court of Appeals: cer talnly no member of the lower body, the Supreme Court, can In any degree nor under any circumstances interfere with the Jurisdiction or decision of such court of Impeachment save, and save only, as the members of the Court of ADoeals shall cast their Individual votes as such members of the court -The decision of the court of im peachment once made. Is binding on every court and every person In the state and must be so respected and treated. Any attempt to interfere with the Jurisdiction over the proceedings of such court of Impeachment by any member of any lower court would be as futile as would any attempt of a Justice of the Peace to enjoin the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals from exercising his functions as such Chief Judge. AH Stlpalatloaa Krfax-d. The Constitution has fixed this as the only way for the settlement of the matters now pending. I know of no other, and I must therefore decline to enter into any stipulation whatever with you on the spbject I hold myself In readiness to perform and shall per form every function of the office of Governor, except Insofar as I am re strained by your illegal action or by physical force.- The doors of the executive suite at the capttol were "securely locked to night while guards paced up and down both within and without In the corri dor. It was said that the guards would continue their vigilance throughout the night Mr. Glynn wrote the Governor early today demanding the records of the of. tice. His letter said: "in the performance of the duty which has devolved on me by article 4, section 6, of the Constitution. I of flcialy demand that you deliver and surrender to me. as acting Governor. during the period of your constitu tional disability to act as Governor, the nse, possession and occupancy of the executive chamber and offices: and that you likewise deliver and surrender to me the executive privy seal of the State of New York, and also all books, pa pers, records and documents in said chamber or offices or elsewhere in your charge, possession or custody, relating to or in any wise connected with or pertaining to the executive department The bearer hereof is authorized to re ceive your answer to this communica tion." Sulaer Proposes Terms. Suizer addressed Mr. Glynn as "Lieutenant-Governor" In replying, and said: "In response thereto, I decline to rec ognize you as Acting Governor of the state, and decline to deliver to you tbe use, possession and occupancy of the executive chamber and offices, or in any way comply with the demands and requests in your letter. "I shall continue to exercise and dis charge the constitutional duties of the Governor of the State of New York first among other reasons, because I am advised that the Assembly at Its present extraordinary session possessed and possesses no power or authority to prefer articles of Impeachment; and, secondly, because the Lieutenant-Gov ernor of the state Is not authorized to act as Governor in case of the Impeach ment of the Governor, unless such Im peachment is sustained. "For the purpose of preventing any unseemly struggle, I suggest that coun sel for the Lieutenant-Governor and for myself agree on a method of sub mlttlng the question to the courts for decision; and for that purpose that ex traordinary sessions of the courts be forthwith called. In order that a speedy determination may be had. Mrs. Snlser Delirious. The serious condition of Mrs. Suizer tonight necessitated the recall ot Dr. Abrahams from New York. No of ficial bulletin was forthcoming tonight from the executive mansion concern ing Mrs. Suizer, but an afternoon bulle tin dictated by Dr. Abrahams, after he had learned of the patient's condition over the telephone, said that she was "still in a precariouH condition." with a temperature of 103 and pulse 118. She is delirious at times and an in creasing temperature and fluctuating pulse tonight so alarmed those at her bedside that a local physician was called in and Dr. Abrahams was hur riedly summoned from New York.
