THE MORNING OREGONIAN, ' THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 12, 1914. 3 PARLIMT WILL CONSIDER WAR ONLY King Opens Session in Which Political Controversies Are , to Find No Place. MORE FUNDS TO BE ASKED Viscount Brjce Speaks Apprecia tively or "Public Opinion- in I'lilted States" Peace at Present Hot Considered. tiON2ON, Nov. 11 Kins . George and Queen JJary were heartily cheered today by great throngs that lined the route of their drive to Westminster Palace, -where the King opened Par liament. London was more patriotical ly demonstrative tharo it has been at any time since the war began. Their majesties rode in a less con spicuous carriage than usual, and the conveyance was driven by six black. instead of six white, horses. Because the court is in mourning for Prince Maurice of Battenberg and because many of the aristocracy are in mourn ing for husbands and sons fallen in the war, the scene in the House of Lords was marked more by somber khaki than by brilliant uniforms. King- Delivers II U Address. In his speech from the throne, at the opening of what will probably be a purely war session of Parliament King George said "My Lords and Gentlemen: The ener gies and sympathies of my subjects in every part of the empire are concen trated on the prosecution to a vlctori- aggrevttlng experience of Frank Wood ruff Monday. Mr. w oodruri is a plumber. A letter came to the postoffice ad dressed to the Cottage Grove Plumbing Company. As Mr. Woodruff Is the only plumber in the city, it was tfcrned over to him. Inside was a check for about 3 payable to the Cottage Grove Plumb ing Company. Mr. Woodruff did not remember having any money due from anyone by the name signed to the check, but concluded the amount must have been due to a plumbing concern he purchased years ago. Further search, however, revealed a statement for which the check was payment. The statement was from the Cottage Grove Plumbing Company. Cottage Grove avenue, Chicago. The envelope had evidently been thus addressed, but "Ave." had been placed on the line below "Cottage Grove." Being imper fectly written, it appeared to be Ore. The letter had been mailed In Chicago and the person sending it evidently had thought it was not necessary to mention the name of the city in which it was being mailed.

Bryce Praises United States. Lord Methuen in the House of Lords moved the speech from the throne. In the Commons the speech was moved by Sir Robert Price. Viscount Bryce in seconding the ad dress in the House of Lords, referred appreciatively to the attitude of pub lic opinion In the United States, which he declared was a country able to judge wisely the questions at issue. It was upon moral grounds that Its support was given, and this was there- lore more highly prized. The war, said Viscount Bryce, had become a struggle of ideals, the Ideal of a military state resolved to dominate all the neighboring countries and the Ideal of - peaceful communities dwell ing in tranquillity under the protec tion of treaties. In the conflict of principles there could be no end until one or the other triumphed. Peace at Present-tTntnoaa-ht Of. There could be no talk of peace at present. A' peace patched up now would be merely a hollow truce, dur ing which the contending nations would begin to prepare for a renewal of the strucsrle. Eurone meanwhile would be living in continual suspense and alarm. The Earl of Crawford, Unionist, urged more strenuous methods to get rid of German spies. He'aserted that In the vicinity of the great naval base of Rosyth they had a well-organized system, by means of which they sig nalled ships. at night. There had also been discovered, he said, an admirably equipped private post system between i Vilo and ports of Germany. that the Pioneers' Home at Sitka is now filled to averflowlng and that with admission of William Thompson, of Nome, and William Stewart, of Juneau. the doors would have to be closed until additional room is provided. In this Institution the territory of Alaska is recognizing the great work done by its pioneers in subduing the wilder ness. William Thompson, who is 68 years old. came to Alaska in 1865 as a mem ber of the famous Western Union Tel egraph Company's expedition to look for a feasible route for a telegraph line to Siberia from the United States via Bering Straits. William Stewart is also " 68 years old. He passed nearly . all his life pioneering In the North. He came to DESPERADO ASKS PARDON "Blue Parka Man" of Alaska "Wants Freedom, Says Letter of Board. FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Nov 11. (Spe cial.) The "Blue Parka Man," Charles Hendrlckson one of the most famous desperados of Alaska, is asking a pardon from the Federal penitentiary. according to a letter from the board of pardons received by the United States District 'Attorney's office here. Two cases against hirne ended In acquittal and as the third case was considered weaker than either of the others. United States Attorney Harlan, who was in office here at the time. seriously considered dismissing it. Hendrlckson spoiled his own chances of freedom by impatience. He broke Jail, seriously wounding one of the guards in his escape. He was indicted for that crime and, when he was arrested later, was convicted and sen tenced to 15 years in the penitentiary.
