BERLIN, March 9. (By wireless to
Fayville, N. Y.) Germany formally de
clared war on Portugal at- 3:30 o clock
yesterday and handed his passports to
the Portuguese Minister. The German
statement issued at the same time em
phasized the fact that this step was
made necessary by the recent illegal
seizures of German Ahips in Portuguese
ports, which is the gravest sort ot
breach of neutrality, and of special
treaties. Germany, therefore, is obliged
to give up her former attitude of for
bearance, which she tiad maintained
because of Portugal's awkward situa
tion. The declaration enumerates a long
series of breaches of neutrality by the
Portuguese government, such as the
permission of free passage to English
troops through the colony of Mozam
bique; the permission given to English
men-of-war to use Portuguese ports
for a time exceeding that griven neu
trals; the permission given the Eng
lish navy to use Madeira as a naval
base; actual engagements between
Portuguese and German troops on the
frontier of German Southwest Africa
and Angola; frequent Insults to the
German nation by members of the
Portuguese Parliament, who never were
reprimanded. '
Issue Are Cited.
The deciaration- says that according
to the treaty between the two nations
the ship seizure ought to have been
preceded by an agreement regarding
the price to be paid the owners, and
that the seizure was only justifiable
In case of public necessity in Portugal,
whereas the tonnage of the ships was
evidently larger than needed to remedy
the scarcity of the tonnage at Portu
gal's disposition. It is further stated
that the Portuguese government did
not even try to enter into communica
tion with the German owners or the
German government. The declaration
continues:
"The Portuguese government by
these acts openly gave evidence that
Portugal considers herself England's
Vassal for whom England's interests
nd wishes are paramount in compari
son with other considerations. The
Portuguese government seized the ships
in a fashion which must be considered
as an international provocation of Ger
many. The German flag was hauled
down on board the ships and the Por
tuguese flag raised with the war em
blem set. while the Admiral's ship
fired a salute.
Denials Are Changed.
Regarding events of the last few
fays it is further known that on Feb
ruary 27 the German Minister to
Portugal protested against the illegal
Foizure of ships in Portuguese ports.
Nevertheless, the Portuguese govern
ment declared semi-of f iclally in Lis
bon newspapers that there had been
io German protest.
The Portuguese Minister of Justice,
in Parliament, also denied the exist
ence of a German protest. The Portu
guese Minister of Foreign Affairs de
clared on his word of honor to a mem-
I'er of the staff of the Italian news
paper Secolo that Germany had entered
no protest.
The German Minister asked for
rectification of the semi-official dec
laration, but without suecesn. It was
only on March 4 that the Portuguese
Minister at Berlin handed to the for
. eign office a Portuguese note denying
the Justice of the German claims.
A copy of this Portuguese note was
sent to the German Minister at Lisbon,
together with instructions to transmit
the already quoted declaration to the
Portuguese government.

Butler, of New York, president of Co
lumbia University, is to speak.
This announcement was made yester
day by John MeCourt, president of the
Oregon Republican Club, under whose
auspices the rally will be held.
Nicholas Murray Butler is one of the
most distinguished educators in the
United States. He has been president
of Columbia University, which has the
largest attendance of any 'American
university, since 1902. He is as prom
inent politically as educationally.
The Republican electoral vote for
Vice-President was cast for Dr. But
ler in 1912. James Sherman. Vice
President during President Taft's first
term, was the Republican nominee, but
he died before the electoral vote was
cast. The Republican National Com
mittee designated Dr. Butler to receive
the honor of the electoral vote.
Dr. Butler was chairman of the New
York Republican convention in 1912.
He was also a delegate to the National
convention that same year. He is a
speaker of power and eloquence.
As the choice of a mass meeting of
voters of Eastern -Clackamas County
held at Estacada a couple of weeks ago
H. C. Stephens, a farmer living near
George postoffice. seven miles east of
Estacada, announced his candidacy for
the lower House of the Legislature yes
terday, subject to the Republican pri
mary. Mr. Stephens has lived in Oregon for
eight years and in Clackamas County
since 1913. He came to penaieton in
1908 from Denver, Colo., where he had
been cashier for several years of the
Interstate Savings Bank. In Pendleton
he was vice-president of the American
National Bank. He came to Portland
in li09 and in 1913 took up farming on
his present ranch near George.
B custom and tradition Eastern
Clackamas is entitled to one of the
county a three seats in the lower House.
When Guy T. Hunt, of Garfield, decided
not to run for re-election, voters of
Eastern Clackamas County held a meet
ing in Estacada to unite on a candidate.
Mr. Stephens was the majority choice.
Mr. Stephens announces his candidacy
as a man of business training and ex-
nerience. as well as one with first
hand knowledge of farming conditions
and the legislative needs of the farm
ers. He is president of the East Clack
amas County Fair Board, which con
ducts the annual fair at Estacada, and
president of the George Commercial
Club.
John R. Latourette, well-known Port
land attorney, who has been mentioned
.frequently as a prospective candidate
for the Republican nomination lor Dis
trict Attorney against Walter H. Evans,
incumbent, announced his definite de
cision yesterday not to run. ' Mr. La
tourette was a member of the lower
House of the 1913 Legislature from
Multnomah County. He is even better
known as "Jack" Latourette, the fa
mous University of Oregon and All
Northwest quarterback 10 or 12 years
ago. With hie withdrawal from the
field there is some talk that George J.
Cameron, District Attorney from 1908
to 1912. may be a candidate. Mr. Cam
eron -himself says he does not intend to
run. It begins to look as if District
Attorney Evans would be nominated
for a second term without any oppo
nent in the primary.
Thomas B. Handley, of Tillamook,
joint Representative in the 1913 and
1915 Legislatures from Tillamook and
Yamhill counties, hopes to be promoted
by the voters to a seat in the Senate
this year. He will be a candidate for

prising Yamhill, Washington. Tilla
mook and Linooln counties. "As two
other candidates, John U. Smith, of
Newberg, and Francis L. Michelbook,
of McMinnville, are already in the field
the campaign gives prospect of being
a lively one.
The country press has combined
against candidates in Oregon this year.
No more free announcements, no more
free pictures, no more eulogiums of
naif a column or so. Like the rail
roads, the papers have shut down on

LONDON. March 9. Official dis
patches from Berlin today record the
capture by the Germans of the village
and armored fort of Vaux, northeast of
Verdun. The War Office announcement
says that in addition to the village and
fort of Vaux numerous adjoining forti
fied positions were captured. The as
sault was made in the night by Posen
reserve regiments.
Tonight's official report of the
French War Office, received from Paris.
reports further progress for the rencn
in the Corbeaux wood, as well as a
German repulse along the front from
Douaumont to Vaux. Today s jj'rencu
report issued earlier in the day, says
that in the Verdun sector, west of the
Meuse. repeated attacks on the village
of Bethincourt were made today.
The Germans have been repulsed be
tween Douaumont and the village of
Vaux after several heavy attacks, ac
companied by intense artillery fire, the
report also says.
METZ. March 9. German operations
around Verdun still continue on mod
erate scales. At this time they are con
fined largely to attempts to improve
flank positions and to press closer to
the fortress girdle at individual points
north and southeast. In attacks of this
nature. German infantry successfully
stormed the villages of Forges and
Fresnes.
Like other villages along the foot of
the hills. Fresnes is built solidly of
stone and constituted a veritable fort
ress outpost which had to be carried be
fore the advance could be made to the
foot of the slopes.
Forges, loss of which is admitted by
the French, lies on the flank and rear
of the German lines east of the flooded
Meuse, and covered artillery positions
from which German works could be
bombarded.
The correspondent saw Germans who
had been fighting' continuously since
February 21. They were in good condi
tion and spirits, though from the ap
pearances no one would guess that
they had come recently from a period
of recuperation and had been newly
uniformed.
Officers with whom the correspond
ent spoke paid high tribute to the fight
ing spirit of the French, although say
ing this was due to some extent to the
continuous pouring in of fresh troops.
Not only the troops, but the com
manders are constantly changing. Thus
far three generals have undertaken the
defense of the fortress since the Ger
man operations began. General Herr
the original commander of the defend
ing army, was replaced by General
Humbert, who in turn was replaced by
General Petain. So far as is known
General Petain has not been supplanted.

WAR SECRETS NOT TOLD
Ex-Commander-in-Cliler Says De
troit Man Gave Valuable Indus
trial and Technical Services
to Allies Without Charge.
LONDON. March 9. Viscount French,
the former Commander-in-Chief of the
British army in France, appeared in
the Court of the King's bench today as
a witness in the libel action brought
by George Gordon Moore, of Detroit,
against Hulton &. Co., publishers of the
Manchester Evening Chronicle.
Th libel comDlained of consisted oi
an article accusing Mr. Moore of be
traying British military secrets wlilch
he had learned through his intimacy
with Lord French. After evidence had
been Eriven on behalf of Mr. Moore, the
defendants withdrew all charges and
apologized. The case was then with
drawn on terms which were not made
public, the defendants paying the
costs.
Many prominent people were in court.
Henry Edward Duke, who acted as
counsel for Mr. Moore, explained that
Mr. Moore had been a cloBe friend of
General French and had visited him at
headquarters in France. He said fur
they that the libel grew out of the
friendship between General French
and Mr. Moore and the fact that they
shared a residence in London.
These facts, he said, were made the
basis of odious imputations that Mr.
Moore had obtained military secrets
and betrayed them to Count von Bern
Etorff, the German Ambassador to the
Lnited States. It was charged further
that Mr. Moore had used his own posi
tion and the (services of a memVr of

his family to work mischief against
the cause of the allies.
Mr. Duke denounced these charges as
malicious inventions, the fact being
that General French had consulted Mr.
Moore on military problems requiring
scientific knowledge and industrial ex
perience, problems which it is not in
the public interest to divulge.
Regarding the charges involving
Count von Bernstorff, counsel said that
the visit Mr. Moore had made on Long
Island was to see Theodore Roosevelt.
Lord French confirmed the state
ments of Mr. Duke in general. Asked
whether Mr. Moore became acquainted
with any military secrets. Lord French
replied emphatically:
"There is not a shadow of foundation
in such a charge. I absolutely deny it."
Lord French testified further that
Mr. Moore rendered valuable services
gratuitously and continuously and on
occasions of some danger to himself.
Mr. Moore on the stand testified that
after he had made a speech in Detroit
advocating the cause of the allies he
received letters threatening his life.
