House to Hold Night Sessions
to Rush Through Second-.Anti-Trust
Measure.
SENATE MAY WORK LATE
Effort to Be Made to Adjourn In
July and L.ong Meetings May Be
Ordered to En Debate on .
Tolls 'Repeal Bill.
WASHINGTO.v. May 24. The House
of Representatives, in an effort to rush
through the second of the Administra
tion's anti-trust measures, will begin
niht sessions this week. I
The Senate is also ehdeavorlng-" to
peed up legislation to Insure an ad
journment in July, and Majority leader
Kern may order late sessions to end
debate on the tolls repeal bill before
Friday. ,
Congress leaders admitted late today
however, that if the Senate undertook
to put through' anti-trust legislation
of a comprehensive nature adjourn
ment could hardly be taken until late
in the Fall.
Death Delays Tolls Conclusion.
The death- of Senator Bradlev and
the fact that the Senate undoubtedly
- will adjourn tomorrow out of respect
for his memory makes it probably, that
debate cannot be closed on the tolls
repeal bill before late Friday. As many
amendments and substitutes have been
offered a vote on the bill itself prob
ably cannot be taken until next week.
Meanwhile the House will take up
the second of its 'anti-trust measures,
having: put through , the trade commis
sion bill without a change. The sec
ond bill, drawn by Mr. Clayton, chair
man of the Judiciary committee, car
ried provisions dealing with Interlock
ing directorates, -holding companies,
price-fixing and the issue of labor
rights and demands.
Labor Demands Rene-wed.
The American Federation of Labor is
: Insisting: on' stronger provisions to ex
'.pmpt labor unions from anti-trust
prosecution and to liberalize injunction
processes and contempt procedure. The
judiciary sub-committee on trusts con-,
tends that the labor sections were ap
proved by the labor leaders when
drawn. The bill may be acted upon by
Saturday.
House leaders are much interested
In the President's declaration that lie
will not be satisfied unless the whole
anti-trust programme goes through
both Houses. Some think the Senate
may be counted on to pass the trade
commission bill, possibly without
amendment, and to go no further at
tills session, except, possibly, to pass
the general dam bill, now privileged to
tome up any time in the House.
The dam bill, regulating water power
' on navigable rivers, would empower
the Federal Government to make regu
lations of practices, rates and charges
for water power when, a, state fails to
perform that function, and would pro
vide that after 50 years the Govern
ment may take over any water power
project under the bill.

Are Later Arrested.
ST. LOUIS. May 24. George Michael
and Joseph George are held by im
migration officials here and will be
recommended for deportation on the
ground that they worked a confidence
game on President Wilson, Senator
Stone, of Missouri, and Secretary of
AVar Garrison.
The two men were arrested here
after soliciting funds from the Busi
ness Men's League for an orphanage
In Van. Syria. They showed to the sec
retary of tho charities committee of
the league letters of recommendation
from President Wilson, Senator Stune
and Secretary Garrison.
The secretary of the committee re
ported the matter to James R. Uunny,
Immigration Inspector. The Inspector
already had been informed that letters
of recommendation had been given by
the President, the Secretary of War
and Senator Stone.
Investigation, it was stated, revealed
that the letters of recommendation
-which the men had purported to bring
from church officials in Syria were
bogus and that no one . ad been author

FLORENCE, Or., May 24. (Special.)
Again when the rhododendrons be
gin to show color. Empress Rhododen
dra VII (Miss Eleanor Saubert) called
the queens of all the provinces together,
asking them to meet at Florence to
discuss the welfare of her subjects. In
response to her call came Queen Lulu,

Jenica, of Glenada (Miss Jenica Colter),
and Ceres, of North Fork (Miss Alfreda
Llndgren) came with their attendants
on Thursday to.be the guests of Queen

The royalty gathered at Acme and
there was formed the beautiful water
parade, with the Empress' barge in the
lead under command of Admiral Berg
man. After the royalty came barges
decorated with the lovely pink and
green of the rhododendron blossoms.
At Florence Queen Mary received the
empress and queens of the realm, anu
conductd them to the royal bower,
where Empress Rhododendra was
crowned by Judge Guerry, of Coos Bay.
The address of welcome was deliv
ered by the Lord Mayor, represented by
Bert Williams, and each province
through her prime minister told of her
resources and pledged allegiance to
Empress Rhododendra.
During the two days in -which the
carnival was in session the programme
included drills by the schools, music
and plays. Addresses were made by
Fredertck Hollister, of North Bend, and
Colonel E. G. D. Mercer, of Kugene.
An address on "County Division," a
topic of interest to the people of West
ern Lane County at the present time,
was made by Judge Guerry.
The afternoons and evenings were
devoted to sports of various kinds, in
cluding basketball and baseball be
tween the Gardiner and Florence teams.
The school fair held for the third

under the supervision of Miss Goldle

good work in the schools of this su
pervisory district. Exhibits included
cooking, gardening;, sewing, fancy
work, carpentering and other industrial
work done by the pupils. Eleven of
the schools In the district made displays.
HUERTA SAYS HE'S CALLED
(Continued From Flrat Fg-e.)
grievance against the American peo
ple or Government. I do not well see
how I could make this stronger or
use words less confusing. Even Presi
dent Wilson agrees with these state
ments, for he has said that his Gov
ernment Is not hostile to the Mexican
government or people. He does assert
that the United States is at odds with
Mexico and that the aimed forces of
this country are not being ued against
Mexico, but against General Huerta. Is
it not rather strange that I am singled
out as the object of the ire and the
subject for punishment by the United
States
"Americans did not realize the con
dition of affairs in this country dur
the brief regime of Senor Madero.
Possibly a few Americans resident
within the City of Mexico and pos
sessed of unusual means of ascertain
ing political and industrial conditions,
had. an inkling of the chaos and
tragedy intermingled in the doings of
the government. But the great public
of tho world was deaf and dumb to the
heartaches of the Mexican people. A
stern and terrible national offering of
blood and treasure was being made by
a nation that sought peace and pros
perity instead of riot and treachery.
Call From Heaven Heard.
'Then it was that I was called by a
mandate from as Heaven it?erf to take
upon my shoulders the burden of tear
ing our fair, loved land from the awful
grin of political anarchy and de
bauchery. "There would be no anarchy or re
bellion in Mexico today but for out
ride influences and encouragement. The
republic, ever since its earlier days,
has ever been able to master Its own
affairs. Serious rebellion has seldom
menaced the stability of the govern
ment or the peace and tranquility of
the people, and the present outbreak
In some of the-northern states woull
be quickly and effectually put down
were it not for many extraneous trou
bles that have been foisted upon us.
"It is absolutely true that so-called,
constitutionalists have no guiding
principle in their warfare. I have yet
to learn what they are fighting for ex
cept to overthrow if possible the con
stituted authorities in the national
capital. One leader has been pleased
to announce cej-tain alleged grievances
against the general government; an
other leader declares something else,
and a third has an entirely different
pronunciamento. As a matter of com
mon knowledge, the various heads to
this rebellious propaganda are seeking
only their own narrow interests and
this at the fearful cost of blood, treas
ure and peace regarding which we all
know so well. They are willing to see
a nation go to ruin In order that they
may accomplish their seKish ends.
"But I am ready to assert, with all
the strength of which I am capable,
that my glorious country will not be
allowed to go to the international
graveyard in this manner. Mexico shall
not perish, least of all by her own
hand. She has weathered the storm
before and soon again to the joy of her
friends at home and abroad and to the
discomfort of her enemies, wherever
they may be, she will rise far above
all her distractions and once again
take her place among the nations in
peace and prosperity."
Asked if he was willing to abide by
the results of the mediation confer
ence, whatever they may be, Huerta
said:
"I would prefer not to make definite
reply to that question at this time.
Not that I have not my mind made up
on the matter, for I have, but for rea
sons which will not need explanation I
would only wish to be silent on such
vital matters at this juncture."
Arising to his feet and speaking with
emotion. General Huerta ended the in
terview with these words:
"Mexico wants peace; peace at home,
peace with all the world; peace with
the great United States, peace, peace."
OXXY FOUR MINISTERS REMAIN
Three. Episcopalians-, One Catholc
Still in Mexico City.
MEXICO CITY, May 24. According to
a canvass made today, only four Ameri
can clergymen remain In the city. They
are Father John A. Rets, of the Ameri
can Catholic Church at San Lorenco,
and three Episconal ministers, Allan L.
Burleson, William Watson and A. H.
Mellen. They said they intend to re

parish of Father Reis has diminished
from 500 to 75 members. The Episcopal
congregation of Christ Church has been
reduced from 600 to 250.
The Methodists. Southern Methodists.
Presbyterians and Baptists have gone.
Miss Laura Temple, the only Methodist
missionary here, refused to So when

can secretaries of the Young Men's
Christian Association will remain and
the work will be conducted as usual.
There has been no interruption of the
classes and exercises.
George W. Babcock, national secre
tary for Mexico, and Richard William

RULER OF ALBANIA
IS III PALACE AGAIN
Attended by Italian Admiral's
Staff Prince William Re
. turns tor Conference.
ABDICATION IS REPORTED
Fears or Pillage Given as Reason
for Hasty Embarkation of New
Ruler Additional Warships
Are Erpected at Durazao. '
DURAZZO, Albania, May 24. Prince
William of Albania, formerly Prince
William of Wied, upon whom the ruler
ship of Albania was conferred by the
powers last February, is again in the
Palace of Durazzo, guarded by Italian
marines. ,
Outside the city the insurgent sup
porters of Essad Pasha, former Min
ister of War, who a. few days ago was
deported, are threatening the existence
or the new regime. Representatives of
the insurgents demand of the commis
sion that they be allowed to confer
with Prince William, who had fled from
the town and taken refuge aboard an
Italian cruiser.
Prince William, accompanied by the
staff of the Italian Admiral, came
asnore last night and was followed to
day by the Princess Sophie, but their
children and suite were left aboard the
cruiser.
Conditions in Durazzo were quiet to
day, but preparations have been made
for the re-embarking of the Prince and
Princess should danger arise.
' ROME, May 24. According to a dis
patch to the Tribuna, Prince William of
Albanfa has signed a treaty of abdica
tion. This, however, has not been con
firmed, and the exact situation in Al
bania is obscure. The Italian Minister
at Durazzo, in a message to his gov
ernment, says an engagement occurred
between the insurgents and gend
armerie, whtch resulted in the capture
of the Dutch officers of the gend
armerie. He further indicates that Prince
William, under compulsion, has signed a
document conceding certain of the in
surgent demands.
It appears that fears that the in
surgents would pillage the city led to
the hasty embarkation of the new ruler
and his family and the removal of the
Italian residents to the legation or
Italian warships for safety.
" It Is understood that both Austria
and Italy are sending additional war
ships to Durazzo.
JUNTA MAY BE SUGGESTED
(Continued From First Page.)
Huerta government in the establish
ment of an entirely new government In
Mexico City.
Occupation May lie Alternative.
They realize that unless their efforts
are successful American military occu
pation of Mexico may be the alternative.
The mediators are of the opinion, it Is
said, that they may be obliged to admit
a representative of the rebels to their
deliberations, but it is unlikely unless
Carranxa agrees to an armistice.
There was no formal meeting of the
delegates today.
FEDIX DIAZ PREDICTS PEACE
Method of Settling Land Question in
Mexico Suggested.
TORONTO, Ont., May 24. General
Felix Diaz, who is staying in this city,
today said he heartily approved of the
mediation proceedings at Niagara Falls.
In the event that a new provincial
government results from the mediation
conferences, he said, he would be among
the first to swear allegiance to it, for
he believed the Interest of peace In his
country, now of all times, required the
subordination of personal desires to the
national welfare.
General Diaz suggested that the
mediators consult informally with the
directors of all the political parties of
Mexico taking part in the last two
Presidential elections. Thus they could
obtain for Provisional President a man
satisfactory to all factions. He also
said the land problem could be settled
by imposing prohibitive taxes on the
larger estates, compelling the owners
to relinquish them. He thought the
peons should receive only the usufruct
of the land, otherwise they would soon
sell it rather than cultivate it.
General Diaz said he did not come to
Toronto to be near the mediation con
ference, but thought the Mexican peo
ple would not approve of his staying on
American territory in case hostilities
should be resumed. He saw no pros
pect of war, but believed it was more
patriotic for him to be on neutral soil
at this time. He expects to remain in
definitely. BUTLETS FIV SEAR JAPANESE

at Mnzatlan.
ON BOARD U. S. S. CALIFORNIA,
Mazatlan, May 23. (Via Wireless to
San Diego, May 24.) A new interna
tional element entered into the situa
tion here today when rebel bullets.
fired at some launches that were bear
ing provisions to the beleaguered fed
erals in the city, fell dangerously near
a launch belonging to - the Japanese
cruiser stationed here. The commander
of the Japanese warship at once for
warded a protest to General Obregon,
rebel commander.
So far no concerted movement of
the rebels to take Mazatlan lias been
attempted. A desultory artillery fire
is being kept up by both armies, who
seem content for the present to oc
cupy their fortified positions.
A report reached the American fleet
stationed here that the constitutionalist
commander at San Bias has forced a
loan sufficient to pay his troops.

LA GRANDE, Or., May 24 (Special.)
Four years of effort to erect a T. M.
C. A. building in this city were today

stone of a $30,000 structure was laid in
the presence of a large audience.
George Curry told of the efforts of local
men and State Secretary Rhodes to ob
tain subscriptions for this building, and
the successful campaign in which do
nations to the amount of $40,000 were
received. He spoke of the work of
local Secretary John Rudd In enlisting
the aid of the business men and the
juniors and school children.
The work of laying the stone was
entrusted to Charles Cochran, of Port

address of the day.
Mrs. Hohnan, who contributed a large
sum, and J. L. Roberts, president of

the tin box with its contents in the
receptacle prepared for it. Rev. J. D.

city, invoked divine blessing and of
fered the benediction. The building is
a two-story brick, and will be one of
the most complete for its size in the
Pacific Northwest.

SALEM BEER
the most popular beverage on the
Pacific Coast?
SALEM BEER is brewed in one of the roost modern
plants on the Pacific Coast. It is aged in steel
glass-lined tanks. It is conveyed by modern pipe
line system direct to the bottle house, bottled under
pressure and therefore never comes in contact with
the air from the time it leaves the fermenting tank
until the bottle is opened by the ' consumer. The
consumer is absolutely assured a beer of ideal
effervescence, snap and purity.
A trial will surely convince any one of the ex
