NEW YORK. May 17. Disclosures,
developments and charges followed in
rapid succession today in the Thomp
son legislative committee's inquiry into
the wiretapping activities o the New
York police. After hours of verbal ex
change between Senator Thompson,
chairman of the committee, and muni
tions officers. Police Commissioner
"Woods was permitted to take the stand
to attempt to justify the wiretapping
practice.
Karlier In the day, when the contro
versy between Mayor Mitchell and Senator-
Thompson had reached an acute
stage, the Mayor accused the Senator
of "cumulative treachery" to the United
States because the - committee chair
man insisted on going on with his in
quiry after Mr. Mitchell had protested
that to do so might involve the Fed
eral Government in grave international
complications associated by the Mayor
with munitions contracts.
Senator Thompson asserted that the
"United States was in no way involved.
3ie was supported in this contention
by District Attorney Swann.
Federal Opposition Waived.
This phase was complicated tonight
when United States Attorney Marshall
issued a statement declaring "any pub
lication of the facts in the case at this
time would be most regrettable from
the standpoint of the administration
of Federal justice.
Mr. Woods, In his testimony, failed
to make- any disclosures regarding an
international plot.
The greater part of the day was
epent by the committee in secret ses
sion. Late today after the occupants of the
offices of Seymour & Seymour had been
examined by District Attorney Swann,
it was. announced that the committee
was satisfied no crime had been com
mitted by the Seymours or the other
men who shared their offices. A few
minutes later a public inquiry into the
motives that impelled the police to
tap the wire leading into the Sey
mours' office was begun.
Conflicting assertions were made dur
ing the day regarding the firm of Sey
mour & Seymour, although the com
mittee absolved the firm from any con
nection with the documents taken from
the Morgan offices.
Seymour Makes Admissions.
District Attorney Swann declared that
he had obtained, sufficient evidence to
Institute proceedings against persons
whom he would not name. The Dis
trict Attorney alleged that one member
of the firm, Frederick Seymour, ad
mitted that he, together with four
other men, previously reported to have
had only desk room in the Seymour
offices, conducted a munition brokerage
business. Seymour, according to the
District Attorney, admitted that he and
his colleagues made money by supply
ing information concerning war con
tracts of the entente allies to munition
manufacturers.
A cablo message, alleged to have been
removed from the Morgan offices, was
Introduced in evidence and now is in
the possession of the District Attorney,
lie said the cablegram was found on
the desk of one of Seymour's associates.
Mr. Swann also declared that one of
the men posed, as a representative of
the Morgan firm.
Frederick Seymour denied imputa
tions against his business and declared
he had handled munition contracts for
the Morgan firm. He was supported
in his contention by Senator Thompson
and Special Counsel Moss, who declared
the Seymour enterprise to be legltl
tnate. BAKER PUPILS SAVE $963

SPURIOUS HEIR MAY

Sweet-Faced Canadian Girl
Testifies Child's Father Is
n British Army.
TALE OF DECEIT IS TOLD
Millionaire Iiady" Said to Have
Gone to Hospital Seeking Infant
to Vse In Obtaining Larger
Share of Estate.
CHICAGO, May 19. The "spurious
heir" in the case of Mrs. Dollie Ledger
wood Matters, according to testimony
today, was a real "war baby." The
testimony came from a sweet-faced lit
tle Canadian girt, Jessie Bryan, mother
of the child.
Jessie went to work in a Canadian
factory when she was 12 years old. For
three years she "kept company" with
a young shoemaker. They were to be
married. Then came the great war
and the shoemaker donned his uniform
and sailed away with his comrades.
Some months later the girl went to the
Miecrlcorda Hospital at Ottawa.
Iteal Mother la Deceived.
It was to this hospital that Mrs. Mat
ters, according to testimony, came
seeking an infant that she might pass
off on the Probate Court as the post
humous child of her late husband, of
whose $300,000 estate she desired a
larger share. Mrs. Matters is now on
trial, charged with conspiracy.
The infant, a girl, was born July 24,
1915. She was a healthy and promising
baby, but the -unwed mother was told
that she was born dead. The girl con
tinued her story:
"There were several babies to be
christened August 23. One was brought
In to me and it was the most beautiful
baby, dressed in beautiful clothes, and
I asked whose it was. The nurse said.
Isn't It pretty? It's the millionaire
lady's.' "
Baby la Jesale'a Own.
Four months passed before Jessie
learned that the baby she had admired
so much was alleged to be her own.
A chum of -mine, continued the wit
ness, "read of the Matters case. She
told me about it and I ran straight to
the hospital. All the old nuns were
gone. I begged for the truth, but no
one could tell me."
On cross-examination Joseph R. Bur-
res, for Mrs. Matters, asked:
"Did you tell Sister Celestine, mother
superior, that you wanted to abandon
the baby?"
"I never did. I wanted my baby."
"You want it now. don't you?" put in
Attorney Jiamsey. of the prosecution
but Mr. Burres-objected and a burst of
sobs was the only reply the Jury got.
LABOR SCARCE AT BAKER
W ages Advancing and Serious Short
age Expected by Summer.
BAKER. Or.. May 19. (Special.)
Revived interest in mines and lumber
ing is making labor so scarce in Baker
that employment agencies are delayed
from two to three days on an aver
age in filling contracts. There are
approximately tea Jobs for every nine
men and ranchers have in some in
stances boosted the standard wage of
3i a month and board to $40 and
board. A large proportion of the un
employed labor available consists of
expert woodsmen, but a balance is
struck here, for a large proportion oj
the Jobs open are in this line. It is
less easy to fill the orders for miners
which are placed daily, and men for
farm work are the scarcest of all.
- Employment agents predict the worst
labor famine in years for this Summer.

Democratic Slate Is Made Up
at Eleventh Hour.
I
OREGON SYSTEM VIOLATED
Cry of Ring Rule Is Consistently
Made Against Republicans Who
Are Numerically Strong but
Weak in Organization.
.MEDFORD, Or.. May 19. (Special.)
The Democratic county committee has
once more made good with an eleventh,
hour slate put forward by Judge Canon,
generally known as the political boss
of Southern Oregon. The same stunt
has been pulled off at every primary
election for five of six years and while
it is a flagrant violation of the spirit
of tho primary law, there apparently
has been no disposition on the part of
the Democrats to oppose it.
There has long been a mystery about
Southern Oregon politics. With a tre
mendous Republican registration, Jack
son County has repeatedly given large
majorities to Democratic candidates.
The cause of this is superior organiza
tion on the part of the Democrats and
superior political generalship.
The Republicans have several can
didates for local offices and there is
sharp rivalry between them. The rival
ry has been so intense this Spring that
there are two factions already in the
Republican party. With the Democrats
there is nothing but harmony, good
will and the sweetest-running little
political machine that ever gobbled up
a public office.
Credit Gives Judge Canon.
Judge Canon, who Jumped from Wis
consin to Medford eight or 10 years
ago to become Mayor of the city after
but a few years' residence, is the po
litical genius behind this clever Demo
cratic game, ably assisted by George
Putnam, editor of the Mail-Tribune,
nominaly a nonpartisan organ, but
really one of the most radically parti
san Democratic Journals on the Coast.
The way it works is this: Judge Can
on gets up his slate about two months
before the primary and the various se
lections are then approved by the mem
bers of the county committee. But
none of them enter the primary and it
is always seen to that no one else does.
Then a few days before election the
pvbllc announcement is made through
the press and reinforced by a printed
circular to each registered Democrat,
urging Democrats to write in the elate
and. there you are.
Candidate Seem PIraaed
The candidates like it. for there Is
no primary opposition and no expense.
They are handed the nomination from
Judge Canon with a directness and sim
plicity that would have made Richard
Cioker swoon with envy, and the old
convention look like a Bull Moose re
vival. But the Oregon system Is another
matter. The Democrats of Southern
Oregon worship the Oregon system
everywhere but in Its application to
themselves, and while they have the
slickest political machine in seven
states, they persistently talk about
Republican machine politics being the
bane of the state. And in spite of all
this and in spite of the general non
partisanship and loose organization
among the Republicans, the Democrats
perpetually acclaim that they are work,
inp: for the re-election of Woodrow
Wilson because he has given the coun
try such a splendid nonpartisan Ad
ministration. Jackson County Is a Republican dis
trict under Democratic management.
Republican feet with Democratic brains,
and until-the atute Judge Canon Is
matched with a strategist of equal ca
pacity on the Republican side this con
dition probably will continue.
