We will tell Eu rope that we are not a part of Europe to the extent that we will stand with ICurope, no matter what she does. When she sees Americanization day In this country Europe may well say, 'Its no time for us to start a quarrel, they are all Americans over there," "The Italian comes here to make a home for himself and to become a Dart of the body politic Although he may retain his durk skin, he is truly an American." Scandinavian Loyalty Assured. Conrad P. Olson said that, although sn American, he is of Scandinavian descent and he was glad to speak as a representative of that sturdy race in such a cause. "From the earliest times down to the present," he said, "the Scandina vian people have never allowed them selves to be oppressed. They are lov ers of liberty. They are law-abiding and law-respecting, and you will find they are good citizens. We will pledge our allegiance to this country on July 5 you know that she has our allegiance, anyway." Mrs. Mary E. Chamberlain, of the TV omen's Relief Corps of George Wright Post, Grand Armv of the Re public, spoke and Captain J. E. Perry recited.

BOXING BOUT IS DRAW AB1K GORDON AXU JIMMY HOWI3 FIGHT SIX ROUNDS. Chinese Bar Outpointed, but Because of Aggressiveness He Averts De feat White Boy Angered. Abie Gordon and Jimmy Howe, the Chinese 105-pounder, fought a six round draw that stood the boxing fans on their toes last night at the Impe rial Club on Union avenue. The Chi nese boy started after Gordon from the first bell instead of waiting as he did in his first encounter with Gor don, which he lost. The decision was well taken despite the fact that the' bout caused more excitement than has been seen in local amateur ranks for some time. The ring was crowded after the decision had been given. Gordon refused to al low the referee to hold up his hand in token of ft draw and left the ring In anger. Later, however, he said he was willing to meet the Chinese boy again. In the bout Gordon pursued his usual tactics of hitting and getting away, but the yellow boy was after him all the time. In the semi-final Joe Bwaln. the bat tling butcher, strengthened his claim to the welterweight championship of the Northwest by defeating Frank Parslow in six rounds of hard milling. Parslow claimed the title, as also does Valley Trambitas. ' The other three bouts, like the main event, ended in draws. The results: 135 pounds "Carman" Syverson and Bill Brown, draw. 135 pounds Jack Wagner and Ray Murray, draw. t5 pounds Sammy Gordon and "Nig" Pluto, draw. , The crowd that attended last night's bouta. was considerably smaller than the one that saw the first bout be tween Gordon and Howe. MARINES SENT TO HAITI Aincrlcaiis to Itelieve Forces Re cently Ijandcd by French Admiral. t WASHINGTON, June 22. Rear-Admiral Caperton with his flagship, the armored cruiser Washington, was or dered from Vera Cruz to Cape Haitian today to relieve the marines landed there last week by the French cruiser Des Cartes to preserve order. The Washington carries 500 bluejackets and 200 marines available for shore duty.

Reports to Washington told of shooting in the streets of Cape Haitlen and of the kill ing of natives charged with pillaging. On the arrival at Cape Haitien of Admiral Caperton, the French marines probably will be withdrawn, leaving the policing of the town to. American sailors. HOTELS NOT TO DO MUSICIANS WITHOUT I Managers Decide to Await New Scale "in September Before Acting CHAMBER MAY INTERVENE Theaters Likely to Let All Go. on July 4 and Get Along Without Music; Chamber of Commerce Will Aid It Requested. If the present differences between the union orchestra musicians and their employers continue to grow more com plicated, it Is probable that the Port land Chamber of Commerce will take official action to prevent serious diffi culties. The Chamber was represented In an unofficial way yesterday at a meeting held by thu hotel men who employ or-. chestras to furnish music in their dining-rooms. The theatrical managers who have served notice on the musicians that their services will no longer be re quired after July 4 had been urging the hotel men to join' them in the lock out against the musicians. Many hotel men yesterday were decidedly in sym pathy with the plan of the theatrical managers and insisted on joining with them in their attitude against union orchestra men. Delay Is Decided On. ...After a long debate the hotel keepers decided to wait until September 1, when the musicians' new sliding scale fixing a minimum number of men to be em ployed in each orchestra goes into effect. It is probable that the Portland theaters will endeavor to get along without orchestra music, following the dismissal of the union men on July 4. This, it is pointed out, would be the easiest way out of the present situa tion. To employ nonunion musicians would open the way for a dispute with other branches of organized labor. It is said that the unionized stage em ployes would walk out in the event nonunion men filled the orchestra pits. Chamber Would Arbitrate. Meanwhile the Chamber of Commerci is keeping a watchful eye on the de velopments with a view of suggesting arbitration, if need be. The Central Labor Council, of Port land, now holds membership in the Chamber, and one of the functions of the Chamber under its new organiza tion is the amicable adjustment, if pos sible, of industrial disputes. A few weeks ago an arbitration and conciliation committee was appointed, consisting of O. M. Clark, James U. Kerr. J. C. Ainsworth and C. C. Colt. This committee will have charge of any proceedings growing out of the musi cians' or any other dispute. GERMANY ADMITS ERROR Apology Made to Sweden for Dou ble Attack on Steamer.

Smith or Minneapolis Says First Hus band Was Disgraced and She Became a- Housekeeper. A suit brought by Mrs. Elizabeth M. Price, of Minneapolis, against Mrs. Marie Dewey Wallace, wife of Guy L. Wallace, of Portland, to enforce what Mrs. Price asserts should be lier trus teeship to two-tlitrds of tho property left by the late Peter B. Bmith, of Minneapolis, her stepfather, and hus band at the time of his death in 1907 of the present Mrs. Wallace, has been on trial before Federal Judge Wolver ton for the past two days. Mrs. Price was on the stand when court ad journed yesterday. It is doubtful if the case will be finished today. The estimated value of two-thirds of the property involved in the action, which differs Irom a suit to break the will of Mr. Smith, is' $100,000. One-third of this estate. Mrs. Price alleges, was to have beeii willed to her by agree ment between Mr. Smith, herself and his wife, one-third to her as trustee for her two children, and tho otuer one-third to the wile. When Mr. Smith died his will left his entire property to the wife. Mrs. Price asserts, however, that in making this will her step-father had directed that the division be made as outlined, and had left to the wife the duty of carrying out this division. This is de nied by the defense, which asserts that the property was willed without con dition in its entirety to the present Mrs. Wallace, then Mrs. Smith. ; rs. Price's mother was the second wife of Mr. Smith, being married to him when the complainant was a girl. She testified that her stepfather was affec tionate and Rind to her, treated her as his own child, provided money for her education", clothod her expensively and repeatedly assured lier that she would be his sjle heir. Al ter her marriage with his approval to Ur.
