VOTING PLEDGE IS TAKEN i Prohibition of Export of Munitions of War and Cable Controlled by United States Government Mso in Platform. WASHINGTON. Jan. 31. Citizens from nearly every section of the coun try, some representing German-American societies, churches of different de nominations or other organisations, and others acting individually, held a con ference here tonight and resolved to form a National organization to re establish genuine American neutrality and to uphold it free from commercial, financial and political subservience to foreign powers." Representative Bartholdt, of Mis souri, who presided at the conference, was chosen to head the organization committee, and Horace L. Brand, of Chi cago, was elected secretary. Speakers Included Dr. C. J. Hexamer, president of the German-American National Al liance, Rev. Thomas C. Hail, of the Union Theological Seminary, New York; Dr. Kurt H. Rlchter, of the German Historical Society; Professor William H. Shepherd, of Columbia University; Professor James T. Hatfield, of Chi cago; Professor A. B. Faust, of Cor nell; Rev. G. C. Berkmeyer, of .the Evangelic Lutheran Church of North America; Joseph Frey, president of the German Roman Catholic Central Union: Dr. Edmund von Mach, of Harvard, and Representatives Porter and Barchfeldt, of Pennsylvania, and Lobeck of Ne braska. Resolutions adopted by tho confer ence declared in favor of: An American cable controlled by the United States Government, to assure possession of an independent news service: a free and open sea for Amer ican commerce and unrestricted traffic in non-contraband goods: immediate enactment of legislation (as a strictly American policy) prohibiting the ex port of munitions of war: establish ment of an American merchant ma rine. The concluding section of the resolu tion said: "We nledare ourselves, individually and collectively.-to support only such candidates for public office, Irrespec tive of party, as will place American interests above those of any other country, a candidate who will aid in eliminating all undue foreign influence from American life." JURY'S WISHES FOLLOWED Judge Stevenson Lenient to Bar tenders Against His Judgment. "It being the recommendation of a Jury of representative citizens, theo retically voicing the sentiment of the community, that Charles Fessenden, bartender, guilty of selling liquor to minors, be allowed remittance of the fine imposed, I shall do so. against my own judgment in the matter and shall also remit the fine of $250 levied in the parallel case in which Carl Nipple was convicted," asserted Municipal Judge Stevenson yesterday in deciding the case tried before him Friday. 'I urn not satisfied in my own mind that this should be done," commented Judge Stevenson later. "I doubt that the decision will have a deterrent ef fect upon bartenders who have un questionably sold schoolboys all the liquor they wished to buy, yet I wish to follow the recommendations of the jury, and as the case of Nipple, tried previously without a jury, was no bet ter and no worse than that of Fessen den, I feel it my duty to also remit the fine in that case." DEED TO LOCKS APPROVED Oregon City Title Sow Only Xeeds Secretary of War's Acceptance. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Jan. 31. Attorney-General Gregory today approved the deed by which the Federal Government will ac quire title to tho Oregon City locks, and sent his letter of approval, with the deed, to Secretary of War Garrison for acceptance. This practically closes negotiations that have been under way for- nearly two years, and it is now necessary only for the Secretary of War to affix his signature and re quest the Secretary of the Treasury to pay over the cash. When the purchase Is completed the Secretary of War will announce the policy of the Government, and It is expected that the canal will immedi ately be thrown open to free naviga tion. Until that time plans of the War Department as to future work near Oregon City will not be made public. POLICE SHAKEUP ADVISED Dismissals Slay Follow Wave of Crime In Madison, Wis. MADISON, Wis, Jan. 31. Dismissal of a majority of the members of the Madison police force was recommended today by a special grand Jury called to investigate an alleged crime wave here.

AMATEUR STRATEGIST HIT Assistant Secretary Roosevelt Makes Plea for Battleship. NEW YORK. Jan. 31. The necessity for an adequate Navy, kept at a high point of efficiency, was argued by Franklin D. Roosevelt, Assistant Secre tary of the Navy, and George von 1 Meyer, ex-Secretary of the Navy, the principal speakers at a luncheon of the Republican Club here today. "There is no harm in saying that our Navy is third largest today, and that France and Japan are progressing," said Mr. Roosevelt. "The future of the Navy is In your hands and the hands of your Congressmen, but unfortunately many people do not know where their own Congressmen are. If we had not an adequate Navy it would mean the loss of Hawaii, American Samoa, Porto Rtco, the Panama Canal and the Philippines." The secretary derided "amateur strategists, who say the day of the battleships is gone and advocate submarines. Many people fail to realize that war vessels become obsolete, the speaker added. One of our modern dread noughts, he said, could fight and sink 15 battleships like the Oregon of Span ish War fame. Former Secretary Meyer declared that an adequate Navy is aa necessary to the inland cotton grower and manufacturer as to the inhabitants of seaports. He called attention to tne lack of battle cruisers. "It was because the Bluecher was slow that she was sunk." he said. "Japan has four battle cruisers and Japan could wipe out our entire com merce in the Pacific because we have no ships that could overtake her battle cruisers. The fastest cruiser we have Is 22 knots." Herbert It Satterlee. ex-Assistant Secretary of the Navy, said: "Some people say you can raise army of 1,000,000 men over night. But vou can't raise blueiackets over night. You must have trained men in the Navy, and it's murder if they are not trained. Other speakers were General Francis V. Greene, ex-Governor of the r-nuip pines, and Representative Calder. RUSSIANS ENTER TABRIZ TURKS REPORTED ROUTED OX PERi. SIA3T TERRITORY.

' Extension of Portland, Eugene A East ern Connects With Paper and I 'nip Mills. OREGON CITY, Or, Jan. 31. Two electric railroads, both completed with in the last week, ran their first trains into Oregon Citv today. Tho Willamette Valley Southern, be tween Mount Angel and Oregon City, is considered one of the best electric lines in the state. The other, an extension of the Portland. Eugene & Eastern, connects the paper and pulp mills here with Oswego. The first train on the Willamette Valley Southern left Mount Angel a few minutes late, owing to difficulties at the Monitor power substation, but arrived in Oregon City only a few minutes behind the schedule. The extension of the Portland, Eugene & Eastern is about four miles long and will carry 60,000,000 feet of lumber a year. The northern terminus of the line is just south of Oswego, where a large electric derrick has been installed to load the cars. At this end of the line, in West Linn, the road runs a short distance south of the falls, where the logs are dumped into the river to be floated down to the paper plants. The Willamette Valley Southern was built with local capital by local men, while the road across the river is practically a part of the Southern Pacific system. BID REVELATION DENIED Postmaster Myers and Inspector Morse Know Xot of Leakage. OP.EGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan.. 31. Oregon Senators are receiving sharp criticisms on Postmas ter Myers' account because' of his al leged irregular and unbusinesslike way of getting bids for quarters for Port land substation A. It is asserted that sealed figures, submitted by bidders, have been revealed to other bidders. After reading the foregoing dispatch yesterday Postmaster Myers said he knew nothing about the handling of the bids for substation A, which had been in charge of Postoffice Inspector Morse, whose office is also in the Post office building. Mr. Morse also de nied the allegation referred to in con nection with the giving out of figures. "If any of the bidders have learned anything about the other bids they have learned it from talking the mat ter over together," said Mr. Morse. "The bids were opened two weeks ago and are still in my office. The location has not yet been chosen, because other business has crowded this question out of consideration. There Is no founda tion for the report that any figures were given out from this office." Associated Charities to Elect.

DAMAGE OVER $200,000 Streets of Nine Cities Are Under Several Feet of Water, Livestock Suffers and Animals, of Phoenix Zoo Perish. PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 31. Rain and snow in tho central and southern por tions of the state last naght brought about floods which were almost as disastrous as . those of a month ago. Streets here and in Globe, Mi ami, Glendale, Tucson, Bisbee, Tempe, Buckeye and Arlington were under sev eral feet of water. Ranchers in the lowlands were forced to flee for their lives, and much livestock. Including the wild animals in the Riverside Park Zoo here, was destroyed. Total damages will aggregate considerably more than $200,000. The Salt River rose out of Its banks, the flood attaining a volume greater than the most memorable high water heretofore. The Santa Cruz, Gila and Rillito rivers poured torrents over their vallevs. Globe and Miami were isolated for several hours today. One weak wire was working tonight. Over this came word that at one point more than 1000 feet of railroad track had been washed out. This was the only point at which railroad traffic .was completely - sus pended, although all roads In the state, particularly those on the border, which had to contend with snow, as well as conditions created by heavy rains, ex perienced great difficulty. ROAO SPAN RISES FAST WILLAMETTE PACIFIC MAY CROSS COOS BAY BY SUMMER. Assistant Engineer Explains Work an One of Longest Steel Brldses on Pacific Coast. EUGENE, Or., Jan. 31. (Special.) The construction of the Willamette Pa cific bridge across Coos Bay has pro gressed so that the engineers predict its completion by Summer II no unseen difficulties arise. 'The construction of that Coos Bay bridge is a gigantic project," said H. P. Hoey, assistant engineer in charge. With 2400-feet, or nearly half a mile, of structural steel, it is one of the longest steel bridges on the Pacific Coast." According to Mr. Hoey, the whole .structure is rising together, with five separate crews, or more than 100 men. One crew is sinking a 12-inch wooden wall, a huge cofferdam 65 feet long) about' each of the 10 piers. The 12-inch timbers form a solid waterproof box. They are sunk In to sand, not with pile drivers, but with jets of water that force the sand out from below them. Another crew is excavating within the caissons, and a third crew is driving piling at the bottom of the caissons already excavated. . Upon theso pilings, driven far under water, rests the concrete piers. No bedrock is available. A fourth crew is pouring concrete, and two of the piers already are completed. The completion of the Coos Bay line to Marshfield hangs upon the comple tion of these two bridges. Mr. Hoey states that the completed line into the Siuslaw is in excellent shape; that fewer slides have occurred, and less trouble has come this Winter than is customary on a new road into the mountains. At present nearly the entire Marsh field and Coos Bay traffic is going in and out over this line, which connects with motorcars on the beach. A. E. HAMLINJS ARRESTED Portland Warrant Served on Arrival in San Francisco. A. E.

Some lucky'genius in the instrumen tal trio composed of Mrs. Susie Fennel Pipes, Ferdinand Konrad and J. R. Hutchison must have had an unusually happy thought when it was determined to hold the series of chamber music concerts in the sketchroom of the Mu seum of Art at Fifth and Taylor streets. Another of these concerts took place there Saturday night, and so impresive was It that the impression deepened that the Museum of Art is the ideal place for such educational, high-class musical treats, meant primarily for the elect and musical entnusiast. une sKetch room, with its atmosphere of art, its statues, its pictures, creates just the necessary mental surroundings for the inner enjoyment of chamber music It is more suitable for such a purpose than the usual concert or recital hall. Last night two trios were played with exquisite skill and ensemble effect, the "C Major No. 4" (Mozart) and the "Dumky Opus SO" (Dvorak). These two trios are markedly dissimilar. The Mo zart Is German, quiet, reposeful, and the Dvorak is Bohemian, not wild, but gipsy - like, romantic, with shaded moods. The. former belongs to yester day and the other is of our own day. They were both splendidly played to rain accompaniment on the roof over head. The pleasant surprise of the occasion was the Bruch violin "Concerto, G Minor," played with Ideal, charming tone by Mrs. Pipes to the piano accom paniment of Mr. Hutchison. Mrs. Pipes played from memory. The electric lights had been lowered and the tones of her fairy music stole In aud out of the shadows as if created then and there by the wand of a master-magician. The musical effect was superb. Mrs. Pipes and Mr. Hutchison played also with perfect ensemble and agreement. Mrs. Pipes was recalled twice, and it was hoped she would play one dainty, short extra number, say "Traumerei" (Schu mann) or "The Swan" (Saint-Saens), but she just bowed her acknowledg ments. The other concerts of tho series will take place February 13 and February 27. OREGON M LOSE FUND DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY LIKELY TO HIT IRRIGATION. Unless Secretary Lane Specifics Cer tain Project, 45O,0OO May Be Lost, Doe to PrognuDne. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 31. There is a growing apprehension among members of the pregon delegation over the proposed appropriation of $450,000 for irriga tion work in Central Oregon, recom mended by Secretary Lane. President Wilson has been conferring with heads of the appropriation com mittees, telling them to eliminate all, except absolutely necessary Items, from appropriation bills and this caution as to economy 'is to apply to reclamation work along with all else. Chairman Fitzgerald, of the House appropriations committee, has declared he will not sanction any new appro priations for reclamation work, unless the appropriation is asked for some specific project, thus serving notice he will not stand for an appropriation for work "in Central Oregon." As yet Secretary Lane has not been able to designate any specific project In Oregon on which this amount can be expended and unless he does desig nate the project, the appropriation will be lost. Even if Secretary Lane names some project there is danger the ap propriation may be thrown out. Just as the river and harbor committee has refused to make any appropriation for new waterway projects, uhe situation is none too favorable and the economy w that is sweeping through the Administration is likely further to de lav adjustment of Oregon's account against the reclamation fund.

OLD DEED TESTED IN SUIT Bnll Run Property-Owners Want Right-of-Way Clause Eliminated. OREGON CITY, Or., Jan. 31. (Spe cial.) Over an agreement drawn 23 years ago Archie and Dee Meyers have filed a suit in the Circuit Court here against the Oregon & California Rail road, asking that a clause In the deed to their property in the Bull Run coun try be stricken out. The land was secured by the plain tiffs in 1891 from the railroad company and the deed contained a clause that the company always would have a right to take a strip 100 feet wide across the property for a right of way. The case is considered important by local attorneys to test this clause, which has been included in many deeds secured from the Oregon & California corporation.
