THE MORNING OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY. .TTJL.Y 23, 1915. PORT-AU-PRINCE IS TORN BY MASSACRE Governor Causing Wholesale Executions Is Mobbed and President Flees. STREET BATTLES TERRIFIC Palace Is Burned and Loyal force Is Defeated by Haitien Rebels. Situation Is Worst In His tory of Island Republic. PORT-AU-PRINCE. Haiti. July 27 A revolution, more terrible In tbe toll of lives thus far taken than any even in the days of Lord Alexis, flamed out in the Haitien capital today. It was an offshoot of the movement to the north, where the adherents of Dr. Rosalvo Bobo, twice expelled from Haiti, have been striking for several months to break the power of the Haitien President, General Vilbrun Guillaume. One hundred and sixty men, including' an ex-President of Haiti, General Orestes Zamor. have been executed by order of General Oskac, Governor of Port-au-Prince, who later in the day was dragged, from the shel ter of the Dominican Legation and riddled with bullets. President Guillaume and the mem bers of his family have taken refuge in the French Legation, an attack on which is threatened; the Presidential palace has been partly destroyed after an attack which lasted for hours, and the revolutionists are in possession of the city. Loyalists Forced to Flee. How many persons have been shot down in the streets and the govern ment buildings cannot yet be learned, but the exchanges between the loyal supporters of the President and the rebels were centered with curious de termination on the one side and desper ate resolution on the other. Eventually General Guillaume and General Oskar and the police, who were defending the palace with the aid of the President's personal staff and oth er troops who had remained loyal, were obliged to flee. At that time one sec tion of the palace was burning. Port Au Prince has been in a state of panic for days. There have been wholesale arrests, apparently caused by order of the president and some of those close to him. The success gained by the revolution ists In the north were convincing proof to the president and government officials that their course soon would be run. Therefore they viewed with suspicion various individuals and re organizations. One regiment of sol diers was disbanded. It was this body which at 4 o'clock this morning de scended upon the palace. HfBssacre Is Revenged. Guillaume and those who acted as his guard offered a stubborn resistance, but were greatly outnumbered. The palace was abandoned by the president, but some of the others continued its defense. Soon word of the massacre of the political prisoners was circulated, and a fierce wave of indignation swept over the capital. Many who had not originally been identified with the up rising took up arms. The Dominican Legation -was invaded and the Governor of Port-u-Prince paid the price with his lify. It was in March, 1908, that a similar execu tion of political prisoners, though not by any means of so great an extent, took place. Nord Alexis was then President of Haiti. It was declared by this official tbat those so ex ecuted were engaged in a revolution, but a few months later Nord Alexis was deposed and deported from the country. So far as Is known no foreigner has suffered in the present uprising, and it is expected that American warships will be sent here Immediately to pro tect foreign lives and interests. River In 186S is recalled by many of the old-timers of Portland. The old Union Sunday School was holding a picnic and had arranged for the river steamer Alert to take the party to Swan Island. The throng, which numbered 87o. crowded on board and filled the up per decks before Captain Pease was called to take charge of the vessel. I was standing on tbe deck as the boat put off, and I saw Captain Pease in the pilot-house beckoning me as though in a great hurry." says Mr. Buchtel. " "We've got to get part of this crowd off the upper deck and do It quick, or this whole boatload will be in the river," he said to me when I reached the pilot-house. "Can't you feel the Doat swinging from side to Eider " "Go under a slow bell and hold her straight in the current, and I will try to do something,' I replied. "I went below and let four or five others into the secret of the condition, and then we went up and asked every one to come down below and sign a testimonial resolution of thanks, tell ing them that we had just learned that the boat was donated free for the picnic. Enough of the crowd was brought below in this way to restore the stability of the boat, and we sta tioned men at the stairway to keep them from going up again. "Had Captain Pease been on board when the crowd went onto the ship, he would never have permitted such an overloading, for he was a mighty safe and careful man. ""We got to Swan Island In safety, but when it came to bringing the crowd back after the picnic Captain Pease split the crowd into two boat loads and avoided all risk of a repeti tion of the danger that he had been obliged to go through on the trip up." The Alert was one of the best steam ers on the river at that time. She had been in service only three years, and was owned by the People"s Trans portation Company. The Alert was 136 feet long, had a beam of 25 feet and a hold of 5 feet. MEXICAN FACTIONS SEEK AGREEMENT Peace Conference, With or Without Carranza, Is Said to Be Contemplated.

INSPECTION SERVICE PROBED Department of Commerce to Make Its Investigation Sweeping. . WASHINGTON, July 27. A thorough investigation of the steamboat Inspec tion service of the Department of Com merce, it was learned today, probably will grow out of the Eastland disaster in Chicago. A movement alreadv is on foot in the Department for practical reorganization of the service in pre paration for the organization under the new seaman's law in- November. Secretary Redfield proposes to go to the bottom of the Eastland disaster and the investigation of the entire in spection service, which has been going i quietly for some time, will be pressed with added vigor. Within the last two months five lo cal officials have been dropped from the service. As all were under the classified civil service, the retirements were effected only after charges had been filed and heard. Of the five re tirements, three were more than 70 years old, two. 60 years and one 82 years.

Many funerals will be held tomor row, and the day was officially pro claimed one of mourning. Public buildings have been draped. According to the official list, 824 bodies now have been recovered and identified. Naval Architect Condemns Vessel. William J. Wood, a naval architect, submitted to the Coroner's jury a long technical statement similar to one he made just after the capsizing of the Eastland, condemning various measure ments and arrangements of the vessel. Coroner Hoffman then took the Jurors to the wrecked steamboat, so that Mr. Wood could explain technical details more plainly. Secretary of Commerce Redfield to night issued a statement on the inves tigation of the Eastland disaster, as serting that there was no truth in re ports that there was friction between the Department of Commerce and tbe Department of Justice. Mr. Redfield said that he had arranged to co-oper ate fully with United States District Attorney Clyne in trying to place blame for the accident. The statement said that under the law the steamboat inspection service was obliged to make an investigation, but the rules provided that such an inquiry should be made by Inspectors from other cities than those concerned In certifying the steamer. It was pur posed, therefore, to call on the Mil waukee board to hold the inquiry in Chicago. Unofficial Observers Named. "In order that the seriousness of this particular accident may receive due weight," the statement continued, "we shall arrange with the local board of inspectors to have Mr. Thurman, of the Department of Justice and myself con duct the inquiry, with the assistance of the commanding officers of the steamboat inspection service. It seems right to us, however, that something more should be done than that, and therefore I have asked Harry -A. , Wheeler, vice-president of the Union Trust Company, and Marvin B. Pool, of 1 Butler Bros., to act as unofficial ob servers or partakers in the inquiry. "It is my purpose to ask that the Western Electric Company select some technical member of their staff as a '.third representative." Moving picture censors today refused permits to four concerns which wanted to display pictures of the Eastland disaster, or the ground that the com panies wanted to ' "commercialize a calamity." DISASTER ONCE NEAR HERE Eastland Horror Recalls' Narrow Escape Here. How the presence of mind of Cap tain George A. Pease and John Buchtel prevented just such a catastrophe ias that of the Eastland in Chicago Itrom occurring on tbe WiUa.mete SALEM, Or.. July 27. (Special.) Leputy state Sealer of Weights and Measures Buchtel today notified the district deputies that they muft en force a section of a law passed by the recent Legislature, which provides that siaDwocKi, Diockwood, ties and sawed cordwood. when sold for use as fuel, become firewood, and shall be sold by the cord, or fraction of cord, and not by the load. He also notified them that coal and ice must be sold by weight.. Mr. Buchtel has an opinion rrom Attorney-General Brown ,that these sections of the statutes are mandatory. The district sealers have been in structed to notify the firms in their territories of the interpretation of the law, and within a reasonable time, if they do not observe it, to take legal action. Mr. Buchtel says in the letter to the deputies: - A wagon holding of a cord of 16-inch slab wood may be properly Dined as 86 cubic feet, or as of cord, the measurements being figured. of course, upon the wood In the short lengtns, and after piling." Similar laws have been In force In Portland for seven years, and the one passed by the recent Legislature gives the remainder of the state the same protection. TAXES PAYABLE PROMPTLY Coos County Attorney Instructs As sessor to Collect Personal Tax. COQUILLE. Or.. July 27. (Special.) District Attorney L. A. Liijeovist has instructed Assessor T. J. Thrift that, in the matter of the 1915 taxes in Coos County, he must obey that section o the statutes which provides that the Assessor may collect the taxes on per sonal property where the holder of such property owns no 'real estate, immedi ately after assessing the property. Heretofore numerous instances have occurred where the property has been removed from the county before the tax on it was due. one instance las year resulting in a J2000 loss to the Coos County treasury. This compulsory payment of the 1815 taxes will hold. whether or not the owner has paid his 1914 taxes. ALBANY COLLEGE ELECTS ML McDonald Is New Trustee, Others Being Reappointed. ALBANY", Or., July 27. (Special.) M. .McDonald, of Orenco. president of the Oregon Nursery Company, has been elected a member of the board of trus tees of Albany College to succeed Rev. A. M.

Cecil, district forester: B. J. Finch, r"ad engineer, and Shirley Buck, chief of maintenance, have returned from a trip of inspection over the roads of Western Oregon, bordering the Na tional forest reserve in the Alsea and Cape Perpetua districts. The party went from Ccrvallis to Tidewater and to Alsea over the rough stretch of road there. From Waldport to Alsea the forest service is building a fine road that will serve as a con necting link between the Willamette Valley and Waldport. The road will open for travel shortly. Vhe Cape Per petua road is nearly completed to con nect with the Willamette Valley through Lane County, WASHINGTON. July 27. Efforts to bring about a conference cf military leaders in Mexico In anticipation of a final appeal to faction leaders by the United States are reported to be under way in the southern republic today. Information' reached Washington to night that representative of various factions were consulting their leaders with a view to the assembling cf a peace conference, either wltli or with out General Carranza. Diaz Lombardo, General Villa's for eign secretary. Is reported to have re turned to Torreon to consult with his hief. General Felipe Angeles. Villa s hief military adviser, is en route to Nogales, where he plans to confer with General Maytorena, Villa goveror of Sonora. The purpose of his visit, it is said, is to procure Maytorena's assur ance that he and his adherents will oin in deliberations to plan for res toration of constitutional government and ultimate recognl'-ion by the United States. Embargo Believed Contemplated. ' An embargo on exportation of muni tions of war to Mexico was said to night to be contemplated as a part of the next step of the Washington Gov ernment. Mexico City remained cut off from the outside world today, despite rffi- cial efforts to get word of actual jr.- ditions there. The Cirraaia asency here asserted General Gonzales alrcndy had reached the outskirts of tlia can ital and would re-enter the city. It also said that General ObrpRon had seized San Luis Potosi and wui.i -be joined by General Trevinj and rein forcements from Monterey, preparatory to a new offensive directed at Torreon. Burton Wilson, chairnmi of the In ternational relief committee in Mexico City, is expected in Washington to morrow to consult with Administra tion officials. Town Sacked, Americana Spared. Among Mexican advices to tbe State Department during the day were tho following: 'The department is informed that on June 6 a Carranza force, under com mand of Colonel Gayou, enterel the town of Ameca, in the Guadalajara district. It is said that the Villist-is evacuated the town without makin; any resistance and that the Carranza forces entered without firing a guru 'After the- entry of the Carranzintas stores and residences were sacked, but the Americans residing in the town were not molested. "The department is in receipt of a message dated July 2b from Lagle Pass, saying that the situation in the Piedras Negras district remains anici. It is reported that the Carranza forces have occupied Guerrera, 30 miles south of Piedras Negras. Reports from the south indicate that skirmishes are oc curring daily near Icamole. with neither side gaining an advantage. "The commanding officer of the Chattanooga reports that Guaymas !s quiet and that an attack on the town appears to be improbable at M'eent FOOD N'OT REVCHIXG CAPITAL Situation Daily Becoming More In tolerable to Foreigners.' PUEBLO, Mex., July 19. (By mall to New Orleans, July 27.) American Red Cross and consular agents who have been co-operating to relieve hun ger and illness in Mexico City today summarized conditions in the interior as follows: For more than six weeks no food in any quantity has reached the Mexican capital. The abandonment of the cap ital by tbe Carranza forces on July 17 has left a confused military situation with which it seems impossible to cope. All railroads between Mexico City and Vera Crux have been crip pled and territory along the lines has been so infested with bandits of both Zapata and Carranza factions that it is improbable relief can be sent from Vera Cruz without military aid of such strength as has not been available heretofore. Conditions in the capital are grow ing worse and it is evident they may be Intolerable both to foreigners and Mexicans a month hence. The abandonment of the capital by General Pablo Gonzales on July 17 came without warning. Two reasons were given by the Carranza forces for withdrawing: First, that Zapata's troops, by capturing Pachuca, threat ened to cut the railroads to Vera Cruz and thus Isolate General Carranza from his army; second, that Zapata's forces already were about to surround Mexico City and catch Gonzales in trap. The evacuation was so complete that only 15 Zapata soldiers entered the city at first to take posseslson of it. These were followed by 3000 oth ers. After the Zapata government evacu ated the capital, July 10, and withdrew to Cuernavaca, Gonzales, with 20,000 Carranza troops, announced he had captured the city, although he did not assume nominal control until July 12. He kept his headquarters several miles outside the city the five days during which he had nominal control. In the meantime the various Zapata leaders came In behind Gonzales, cap tured Pachuca, destroyed the railroad blew up trains filled with Carranza government employes and threatened to attack Cordoba and Orizaba. Fighting was common around Ori zaba and Jalapa. and it was reported that Zapata's troops were endeavoring to make their way to Vera Cruz. The possibility of their isolating Carranza n Vera Cruz Is said to have resulted in orders to Gonzales to leave, the cap ital and fall back toward the coast. Hundreds or Americans who own property along the railroads between Mexico City and Vera Cruz have hand ed to John R. Silliman, special repre sentative of the State Department. long lists of depredations which they allege they have suffered at the hands of bandits. from Eureka to San Francisco, and that Yates and Mrs. Freeman were unduly familiar, to say the least, while they were stopping over night at Wlllits on the trip. E. R. Freeman, through his attorneys. Is seeking a divorce. The trial began yesterday. In the proceed ing the first "available opportunity" was said to be a tunnel. Dr. Charles Cottrell testified he failed to notice, a single osculation, although he was with the pair for the first 25 miles of the trip. Mr. Tates was a speaker at the Eureka Chautauqua in 1913. He had met Mrs. Freeman then while she was seated with her husband. When he left, it is charged, he Invited her to acompany hira to McCann's. She ac cepted the invitation. Mr. Freeman says, and went clear to San Francisco, making 90 miles of the trip in an au tomobile, occupied only by herself. Mr. Yates and the driver. It is contended they were Indiscreet while stopping over night at Willits en route, and that their exchanges of kisses and caresses made them conspicuous on the train on the trip from Willits to San Fran cisco. Mrs. Freeman and her husband. E. R. Freeman, testified today in the trial. Freeman testified that with his wife he went to the station to bid Yates fare well on the morning of June 30, 1913. "You had better coit to the end of the line with me. little one." Freeman testified Yates said to his wife, and Mrs. Freeman replied: "Sure. The next time Freeman heard 'from his v.-lfe she was in San Francisco. He said she went away without any bag gage. Lat.r in the day Mrs. Freeman took the s'.and and denied every charge. She said Mr. Yates never kissed her and that she committed no Imprudent acts. She testified that she and Mr. Yates were the only passengers on the auto mobile stage on which they made 90 miles of the journey.

(Special.) Divergent views for handling the "problem" of the weak country church characterized the session of the slate interdenominational ministerial conference at the University of Ore gon today. All speakers, however. nited in the expression that at present interchurch rivalry and division of nits is destroying efficiency In the mall community. The contention of H. Paul Douglas. of New York City, was that the small town should be made the church cen- er for the rural community, and tbat it should be made such as opposed to ulldlng up smaller rural units. Professor Garland A. Becker, Ohio State University, opposed the town idea, but advocated an interdenomina- lonal combination. He preferred a nion under some lnterdcnomlnation to nameless church, and suggested interdenominational "trades." but which erritory could be apportioned be- ween churches. He also suggested he reduction of "overhead" expenses. by the utilization of the same build ing and equipment even preachers by wo or more denominations. If we, as Christians," said Pro fessor Becker, "should use common business sense In the organization and he development of our religious or ganizations there would be a great advance in the present-day methods f rural religious work. Many of our weak rural churches would die from lack of financial and moral support. The fact that many weak rural hurches are today slowly and Dain- lessly dying is no discouraging sign. The cemetery must solve many of our social problems. The solution of this problem of the country church Is not matter of a few years, but one that will consume a generation." HOOPER .TALKS FREELY Railway Detective Says Robber Sus pect Is Expected to Confess. ROSEBURG, Or.. July 27 (Special.) That John .'.ustln Hooper, arrested recently at The Dalles on a charge of robbing the southern Pacific Railroad offices at Grants Pass, will confess and tell the details of a dozen or more hold ups and robberies in which the police believe he participated, was the state ment made here today by Special Agent h.elly. of the Southern Pacific Com pany, who. arrived from the south. "Hooper is very talkative." said Mr. Kelly, "and we do not anticipate any trouble in connecting him with a num ber of crimes committed in various sections of Oregon during the past few months. .

"There are only vo ways that possibly can establish and maintain safety at sea." said An drew Furuseth. president of the Inter national Seamen's Union of America, with reference to the capsizing of the Eastland. One is to make the ship owners responsible in damages to the raveling public for Injury or death to passengers, tnus giving to in snip- owner a specific financial interest, in safety. 'Coupled with such responsibility 10 the passengers, the Insurance laws might be so amended that over-Insur ance or complete insurance wouia oe prevented, thus leaving part of the risk with the owner instead of distributing t over the public. "The second method would b to enact by law or regulation such rules for safety as shall be needed. Our In spection laws provide for a superior inspector-general and one supervising nspector for each district, in super vising inspectors, by authority of -Con gress, are to make such rules as shall nsure safe travel. "The supervising Inspectors are ap pointed either directly or Indirectly on the recommendation of shipowners.
