WRONG SHELLS SENT OUT FEDERAL RAID IS MADE Shrapnel Persistently Supplied to Troops 'Who Needed High Ex plosives, Say Many Friends Jtallj to Support. X LO.NDON, May 21. One of the most I remarkable features of the ministerial - crisis in Great liritain at the present moment is the sudden outbreak, more or less severe, of newspaper attacks r, upon Field Marshal Earl Kitchener, the !. r.ritish Secretary of War, who at the - outbreak of hostilities was the nation's military idol. The Daily Mail and other newspapers under the same ownership have been x most violent in their attacks. The Daily ' Mail says: i. -It never has been pretended that - Kitchener is a soldier in the sense that - Field Marshal Sir John French is a soldier. Kitonencr is a gatherer of men. and a tine gatherer, too, but his V record in the South African war as a j lighting general, apart from his excel- - lent organizing work as chief of staff, was not brilliant. 'Nothing in Kitchener's experience 7 suggests that he lias the qualifications required for conducting a European , campaign in the Held, and we can only ; hope that no such misfortune will be- - fall this nation as that he should be ; permitted to Interfere with the actual " strategy of this gigantic war." foully Object LrMoa Keared. Proceeding to accuse Dord Kitchener - of having "ordered the wrong kind of shell," the Daily Mail asserts that, "de- t-pi'e depcated warnings that a high explosive shell was required. Lord Kitchener persisted In sending shrapnel such as he need against the Uuers, thus - causing the deaths of thousands of - lii-lli-sh soldiers and incidentally brins ; ing about a Cabinet crisis." The Dally .Mail adds: "It by any chance Kitchener went to France to conduct the campaign, we should prob " ably have a costly object lesson in the I difference between African and Euro- pea 11 warfare." 'I'he Times, in an editorial, says: "Our armies in the field require rein ; fon ements and shells of the right kind. 1 Neither has been provided in adequate quantities for the simple reason that Lord Kltchenar's orders were given too - late. 'Plain warnings were disregarded find the nation was lulled into a false security by misleading oftlcial reports, ' with the result that thousands of Brit ish lives were sacrilleed in an unequal contest. The whole trouble arose when ' Lord Kitchener assumed a burden to which no man could prove equal." i, French llally to Support. X Whllu some newspapers are thus al- most calling for Lord Kitchener's re t lireinent, other organs, like the Morn- ing Post and the Daily News, protest ,- that a "dead set" has been made against him. The Morning Post says: "The new government will hot likely be so foolish as to throw over the man ' whose presence has held the confidence " of the nation and of our fighting forces ' since thi beginning of the war." J The Daily News protests in the I strongest language against what it terms "a press campaign against Lord 7 Kitchener, organized by some of the " newspapers who at the beginning of the -war forced him upon the country." The Stock Exchange held a meeting i today in support of Earl Kitchener. A ; resolution whs adopted unanimously ex- pressing confidence in the War Minis- ter and strong Indignation at the : "venonmous attacks upon him" by a part of the press. i The members of the exchange then formed a ring, piled n large number of copies of the Daily Mail in the center .and made a bonfire of them. I Kitchener Xukkch tcl for llc(aor. The Pall Mall Gazette, discussing the , "quite astounding newspaper attacks J on Kitchener," says that they have X created an overwhelming sentiment of public indignation and have made the X Secretary for War, who seemed weaker - n Wednesday, more powerful and pop ular than ever before." After referring to the wide powers ' possessed by the War Secretary in T times of war, the Gazette says: 1 "It is not possible fully to explain " how many matters that seem in a fair way of settlement, are complicated or put In jeopardy by the attacks on Kitchener. We fear the result will be J an increase in the stringent regulations ..imposed on newspapers. If the working of the constitutional machine is made f more difficult, we shall be very near Mich a situation as drives democracy Jin war to a dictatorship. If we are to have a dictatorship. Lord Kitchener tin luubtedly will be dictator." WAR PLANE GIFTS STARTED Aero Club of America ISegins Sub-- script ion for lleservc l'lcct. v NEW YORK. May 21.

LAW CODE IS ADVOCATED Lake Moliouk Conference ltecoiU' mends Creation of Permanent International Police ljrce to Keep World's Peace. MOIIONK LAKE. N. Y., May 21. Delegates appointed to attend the Lake Mohonk conference on interna tional arbitration by chambers of com merce and similar business organiza tions in most of the large cities aligned themselves today with the advocates of greater military preparation for National defense. These delegates in cluded manufacturers, merchants and bfflcers pf the country's principal com mercial organizations. The rebort of the business men's committee, read by Chairman L. M. Cuthbert, of Denver, said disputes be tween nations "ought to be justly set tled through the proceedings of inter national tribunals instead of War." Nevertheless the committee asserted its belief "that it is the part of wisdom at present for the United States to be fully prepared to defend itself from possible injustice and aggression," and advocated "the strengthening of our military and naval forces so as effect ively to protect our coast." The report recommended the forma tion of a code of international law, the establishment of a permanent in ternational court of justice and of an international police force to execute the decrees of the court. War Insurance Suggented, Simon E. Baldwin, ex-Governor of Connecticut and a student of interna tional law. In an address on "Avoiding the Occasions for War." approved of the idea that some of the great com binations of capital might undertake to Insure nations against war. "There are combinations of capital in this age, and even individuals," he said, "holding funds far greaiter than the total amount of property of some sovereign states. Why not let some such combination set up the business of insuring nations against pecuniary loss by any future disaster? "In one respect, this would promote war. It would tend to make a na tion that was well Insured careless in reckoning iis risks. On the other hand, it would bring in a strong influence toward peace: namely, the capitalist or combination of capitalists granting the insurance." William A.'Wier, Justice of the Su preme Court of the Province ot Quebec, praised the attitude of the United States In the present War. and the humanity of Americans. His theme whs "Oemocracy and Peace," "Should the Central Kuropean pow ers succeed," he concluded, "there wilt follow, apart from the penalties to be Inflicted on the defeated nations, serious interference with the rights of the people of the Balkan Teninsula and an attempt to control In the interest of German Industrialism the great markets of India, China, Africa and South America. "The expansion of German rommerce in South America has been very large in recent years and its further exten sion by a dominant military empire Would be carefully planned. Sooner or later its methods would hrlng it In conflict with the Monroe toctrin and further calamitous contests would ensue. Canada might tfren become the Belgium of the Western Hemisphere. Rnnslan Autocracy May Figure. "If (treat Britain and her allies suc ceed, the world will have to face the j possibilities resulting from the growth land predominance of Russian autoe- X y. Hi Xaylyf . racy, whose control by her people is still a dream of the future. "It the issue be a stalemate, prep aration for future wars will doubtless follow. "Who -will deny that the diplomacy of oligarchy haa signally failed?" Kear-Admiral C. M. Chester, of Brooklyn, pleaded for greater military preparation. He said: "I can assure you that you must be prepared for the inevitable that is certain some time to come. One of the dangers to the country is wom en's propaganda against militarism. Don't try to bring your boys up to dread the inevitable. Don't bring them up to be mollycoddlers. Only the great Prince of Peace himself will ever bring about cessation of war." CREDIT BILLS BEGGING WAR SUPPLY ACCOUNTS RtN HINDREDS Of MILLIONS. United States Becomes Increasingly Important aa World Ceo ter of FlnsBi-e and Commerce. NEW YORK, Miy 21. Bankers with international connections were con cerned today with the course of the foreign exchange markets, all of which, with tne possible exception of that of Germany, continued to move in favor of this country and point to Its Increasing- importance as a world center of finance. Demand bills of London declined to 4.78, which establishes the minimum quotation for that form of remittance since the panic of 1872, when our bankers were resorting to every de vice because of home necessities, to obtain gold from abroad. Francs and lires also went to low est prices recorded since the outbreak of the war, and, so far as could be learned, today's rates for remittances to Paris and Rome have not been equaled in a generation. Reichmarks or exchange on Ger many were steady, with moderate transactions. There is no way of computing the amount of bills of exchange held by our bankers against purchases here by the leading countries of Europe, mainly on war supplies of foodstuffs aJid textiles, but the figure runs into hundreds of millions of dbllars. It is partly the pressure of those bills for sale by American holders which has brought about the existing unpar alleled situation. Sales of American securities for for eign account here and receipt of more gold from Canada and France have relieved conditions only in part, but students of the situation declare that real relief can only come from the Lawrence Sullivan, Polltlelan.

I k A j ARGUMENT IS ENDED Court to Take Time to Decide Riggs Bank Case. INJUNCTION IS REFUSED Judge JSajs Ho lias No Evidence of Misuse of Power by Officials and He Thinks Malice Was "Kather on Other Side." WASHINGTON, May 21. At the con clusion of five days' argument. Justice McCoy, of the District Supreme Court, took Under advisement today the mo tion of the Government to dismiss the suit brought by the Riggs National Bank to enjoin Secretary AlcAdoo, Con troller of the Currency Williams and Treasurer Burke front alleged unlawful persecution of the bank-. Relief sought by the plaintiff pend ing litigation waa denied by the court, except as to the payment into the Treasury of 15000 interest on bonds due the bank and withheld to covef pen alties Imposed by the Controller for failure to furnish certain reports. A temporary restraining order against the payment of this money intOsthe Treas ury was granted at the outset of the proceedings, and the court later will pass upon question of continuing it. Arbitrary Power 7t Observed. Justice McCoy indicated that he would occupy some time considering the case, but would endeavor to dis pose of it before July 1. In denying the prayer for an injunction pending litigation he said that without consid ering what evidence hereafter might be presented, there waa nothing in the record before him now which showed the Government officials had exercised arbitrary power in regard to the re fusal to select th" Riggs bank as a re serve agency "It seems to me on the record as It stands that the Government officials would be remiss in their duty In select ing it as an agent for new applicant banks," said the Justice. "The evidence here is of persistent Violations of the law and those violations did not begin when Mr. Williams-came into orflee and they have continued to this day." Malice IVeted on Other Side." The court also considered on the record as now made up the charge that Becretary McAdoo showed malice in an Interview in his office with Riggs bank officials. The Justice said it ap peared to him that the malice was rather "on the other side." At the opening of the day's session, Samuel TJnternryer, of Government counsel, presented a bookkeeper's af fidavit that there were 6000 stock transactions showh on the books of Lewis Johnson & Co.,- stockbrokers, id the name of the Riggs National Bank.

Correspondence Between Men Inter ested in Alleged Gambling tn terprise Brings Charges of Violating Mails. IXS ANGELES, May 21. Lawrence Sullivan, once a plunger and broker at Goldfield, and since then a private de tective here, was arrested late today with W. J. Danford, a disbarred attor ney, in connection with the operation of a local branch of the Hermosillo lottery Company at San l-'ranclsc-o. Federal warrants were issued against both men, charging illegal use of the mails. Twenty alleged agents of the lottery company arrested yesterday are said to have declared that they had been "pro tected" by a private detective agency for a consideration of $100 a week. W. H. S. Young, known as the "Los Angeles lottery king," and three of the 20 other alleged associates who were arrested by the police yesterday, were rearrested today on Federal warrants charging the same offense, using the malls In connection with a. lottery. These men were William Pettit, J. P. Buckley and A. L. Daniels. None was able to furnish bail. Warrants are out for the arrest of four men in .San Francisco alleged to be the princi pals for whom the Los Angeles men acted aa agents. Correspondence between these men and those arrested here was the basis of the complaints. The letters, along with lottery tickets and other evidence seized by the police yesterday, will be placed before the Federal grand Jury for the purpose of securing indict ments. One of these letters said that the principals "expected to make a million.'' St Ma VAX AVKIvL. KNOWN" HEliE Career Varied and Picturesque, Say Old Residents. Larry Sullivan, as Lawrence M. Sulli van waa best known in Portland and Astoria, came to the Pacific Coast in 1885 from Pittsburg. He set up a sailor boarding-house at Astoria and from the first succeeded, being one of the few men who had never been to sea to make a success of the venture. Several- years later Sullivan embarked in the sailor boarding-house business In Portland, associating himself with Peter and Jack Grant. Although the Grants and Sullivan were distinctly different types of men and conducted their operations in widely dirrerent manner, their association held for a number of years. Sullivan left Port land about 10 years ago, but hot before he had made and lost a fortune. In the sailor boarding-house and mining busi ness; had been tried for "crimping" or shanahaiing " and had amassed a rep utation as a prize fighter and a politi cian. In his boarding-houses in Portland and Astoria Sullivan was identified at different tlmea with Joe Baker. Dick McCarron. Matt Dee. "Bunco" Kelly and Jim Turk, all meh who figured in ar rests and trials at one time or another for questionable traffic in seamen. Sullivan began his prizefighting ad ventures shortly after arriving at As toria, and one of his famous tights was a 92-round bout with Tommy Ward on a. barge down the river. His last big fight was with Dave Campbell, who later became chief of the Portland Are department. Sullivan was recognized as an Al fighter but lacked "sand," ac cording to old-timers who remember seeing him in some of his escapades and exhibitions. Sullivan met his Waterloo in busi ness and otherwise in Mysterious Billy Smith, a. boarding-house keeper who opened a house in opposition to Sulli van and practically run the latter out Of business and eventually out of the city. Their encounters on the street and In their favorite rendezvous are matters of picturesque local history. Sullivan made considerable money In Portland. He won as his bride during his palmy days a Miss Hoare, sister of Captain Tim Hoare, of the Portland po lice department. Sullivan built a handsome home in Portland, at Seventeenth and Irving streets, the house still being in good condition. When his fortunes began to fail him, Sullivan and the Grants operated in the Bohemia gold regions, near Cot tage Grove. They also engaged in the fishing business, owning some fish ing grounds down the Columbia. Eventually Sullivan sought new fields at Goldfield, Nov., during the rush days and amassed a fortune from gold mining. This he lost, and a few years ago he became a "local" character at Los Angeles. Sullivan has had experiencf in bis particular kinds of operations through, out the world. He was known in Lnn don and Singapore, as well as in Pitts burg and Portland. Fiction writers fell on his spectacular and romantic career for material, and the late Mor gan Robertson, writer of sea stories, who died only a few days ago, incor pbrated some of Sullivan's episodes in his vivid stories. Frank T. Biillen. who also has -won place as a writer of sea fiction, has characterized Sullivan. A good story once went the rounds in Portland on Sullivan. He is rred ited with having enticed a crew of sail ors from a British ship then docked at Portland. The tars were gathering: up their bags and clearing the decks when the skipper hove in sight at the cabin door. In his British accent he asked his men what they were up to, about the time that Sullivan called to them from the dock to "como on." "And who are you?" bellowed back the skipper. "I'm Larry Sullivan," shot back the Portland boarding-house keeper. "Oh, and sure I know ye, too," re torted the skipper. "You're as well known In London as ITing George the Fifth." j NOTE STILL HELD BACK f Continued From First Fae. erence to the arrangements between the cotton Interests and the British gov ernment, the memorandum issued by the British Foreign Office attracted much attention. It was generally re garded as having been put out to an ticipate complaint by the United States on various detentions of American car goes, It did not, officials noted, refer to the legal principles under which the American cargoes are being detained and purchased by the provisions of the order in council. It is this acalns which the American Government is pre paring to protest further. There have been intimations that a note might be forthcoming soon from Great Britain replying to the American communication of March SO explaining the position of the allies. Leave Portland 7:35 A.

"At the beginning- of the strike." Walsh asked, "did not Governor Am nions refuse to Rend the militia to the mining camps to install strikebreak ers ?" "I believe he did at the outset." "JsrVt it a fact that he directed publicly that the militia should, not be used to install strikebreakers and that when the militia first appeared they were cheered, by the strikers and that good feeling existed for three weeks?" "I believe so." "Following that did you not get the letter from Bowers, telling you that he had used the bankers and nnaocial Interests to 'whip the little boy Oor ernor into line?'" Receipt of Letter Admitted. "I received such a letter. I inter preted it that he was urging the Gov ernor to protect life and property." "Would you meet violence with violence?" "I would do whatever was neces sary." In answer to questions connecting officials of the coal company with elec tions, Mr. Rockefeller declared: "Anything that prevents elections In a proper way is deplored and ehould be terminated."
