MAYOR GILL DENIES
BILLINGSLEYGHARGE
I
Federal Grand Jury Cannot In
dict Him for Alleged Liq
uor Graft, He Says.
POLICE VOICE DISCLAIMER
Various Officers Named Invite In
vestigation Sheriff's Office Ex
cited, as Many Deputies Are
Said to Be Involved.
SEATTLE, "Wash., Jan. 7. (Special.)
Mayor Gill denies absolutely the
graft charges of BlllingsJey, and de
clares that the Federal grand Jury can
not possibly indict him on such a
charge.
"Even If I had been fool enough or
crook enough to accept a bribe from
Billingsley," he said, "I fail to see how-
It would lie within the province of the
jury to bring a charge against me.
Lundln, the county Prosecuting Attor
ney, is the only man who could start
action of that kind, and he has not
anything to start it with for the very
excellent reason that I never took a
cent. If I had committed such an of
fense I fail to see how it could be con
strued to constitute a Federal offense."
Police Sergeant Guy I Carleton, re
cently promoted, said:
"If my name has been mentioned be
fore the grand Jury, I am perfectly
willing that an official inquiry, into my
conduct be made now, or at any time
in the future. I am at a loss to under
stand 'why I should be connected with
the Investigation in any way whatever.
I have never had any dealings with the
Billingsleys, and my only connection
with Margett was in assisting in - his
arrest when he was caught at the First
avenue South warehouse the night he
was taken into custody."
Officers Deny All Knowledge.
"Nothing to it," tersely remarked
City Detective Ben Corneilson.
"My record as a police officer is open
to anyone," declared Detective Meyer
Peyser, when asked if he had been
subpenaed.
Jack Poolman, Peyser's working
partner in the detective department,
likewise said he was not advised of
any attempt to Identify him with the
Federal Inquiry. .
City Detectives James Doom and Dan
McLennan said they had never had any
dealings with any of the Billingsleys
or any other person or persons sus
pected or accused of violating the
liquor laws.
Chief of Police Charles L. Becking-
liam -reiterated his statement classing
the reported implication of Mayor Gill
and himself in any compact insuring
the Billingsleys or any one else of
protection and immunity as "bunk."
"Perhaps the rumors may have ema
nated from the assertion made by this
Margett, who, after he was fired from
the police department, asserted he
would 'get those responsible for his
discharge. I don't believe the Bil
lingsleys made any such statement, but
if they did they are plain liars. I would
rather believe it -of Margett If these
rumors are in any way founded on fact.
Matter Called Trivial.
"Anyhow, it is too trivial a matter
to bother about. I don't believe I in
any part. Furthermore, I have abso
lute confidence in Sergeant Carleton,
and likewise in Sergeant Putnam. It
Is a wonder they have not involved the
latter, who has borne the brunt of the
whole fight against the bootlegging
fraternity.
The police department and Sheriff's
office fairly buzzed with excitement
when the purported disclosures of the
Billingsleys became known. The names
of more than half a dozen detectives
who are supposed to have been the sub
ject of inquiry at the Federal grand
jury are freeJy discussed around head
quarters, and as many Deputy Sheriffs
serving under the present administra
tion are said to be involved.

"PRETTIEST YOUNG ARTIST
BEAUTY WINS AT ART
Miss Thelma Cudlipp Gets
Prize for Best Poster.
HONORS WON ABROAD, TOO
Work of Winner of New York In
ternational, Flower Show Is En
tered In Royal Academy.
War Sketches Praised.
NEW YORK, Jan. 3. (Special.)
Miss Thelma Cudlipp, reputed to be the
"prettiest young artist in America,"
has won the prize of $500 in gold for
the best poster submitted for the In
ternational Flower Show in New York
next Spring. Miss Cudlipp won from
a field of 136 contestants, the judges
being Theodore Havemeyer, Mrs. Edna
Woojman Chase, editor of Vogue, and
several authorities on art.
Alfred Sutro. the English dramatist,
bought the first painting she ever sold.
It was her ambition to enter the RoVal
Academy in London and in 1912 out of
many competitors she was admitted to
the Royal Academy, winning a three-
I year scholarship (only two or three
competitors a year being selected).
She is one of the few and the youngest
of American girls ever to achieve this
honor.
During the Allied Bazaar last Spring
Miss Cudlipp made some war sketches
which elicited the high praise of many,
including the Marquis de Ponignac,
who came here as the French govern
ment's representative in charge of
France's war exhibit. Some of these
were later produced in Paris Journals
as notable examples of war art by an
American girl.
GRADE CROSSINGS TOPIC
i
Public Service Commission Dis
, cusses Proposed Legislation.
SALEM, Or., Jan. 7. (Special.) At
another conference held at the Pub
lie Service Commission's office here
Saturday on the question of elimina

the bill reported by the sub-committee
was changed in some of its minor de
tails and it also was decided to pre-
sent two bills, one providing for elim
ination ol cro
ssings and the other for
their protection.
Among other things it is planned to
give the commission complete Juris
diction over the crossings and it also
is planned to place warning signs BOO
feet away from the crossing at each
side.
Much discussion arose today as to
who should stand the expense of the
elimination of crossings, the railroad
insisting that the expense be borne
equally, but final decision was reached
to leave the question an open one for
the Legislature to decide. .

VANCOUVER, Wash.. Jan. 7. (Spe
cials) Mystery, how a child under 4
years of age could climb and fall bead
first into a heating stove, the top of
which was a foot higher than the chair
she stood upon, surrounds the death of
little Lillian Klva Smith, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. William P. Smith, burned
to death at her home 12 miles above

oner Victor H. Limber. Sheriff Bert

She is 25 years old. and the mother
of five children, Helen, 7; William. 6:
Elma. 6: Lillian Alva, nearly 4, and
Agnes, 1 year old. The three oldest
childfen were upstairs, and the baby

RIFT IN HOUSE WIDE
Repubjican Split Likely
to
Cost Speakership.1
MANN AND LENR00T FAIL
Gardner Cannot Realize His Ambi
tion to Be Floor Xeader Party
Lacks Cohesion and Cannot
Command Independents. .
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Jan. 7. Utter lack of harmony
among the Republican membership of
the next House of Representatives, in
ternal bickerings that have come to the
surface among those Republicans of the
present House who will hold over after
March 4, a controversy over party lead
ership, and general lack of party or
ganization make It practically certain
that the Democrats will organize the
next House, will elect the next Speak
er, will select the House officers and
direct the business of the House for
the next two years.
This is seemingly true In face of the
fact that the Democrats have not
elected a majority.
Independents Hold Balance.
The balance of power In the next
House will be held by independent
members, who owe their seats to nei
ther of the old parties and who are at
liberty to vote as they will. How these
independents will vote no one is au
thorized to say, and each of the inde
pendents has been profoundly silent.
But when they come to make their
choice, the independents will choose
between a united Democracy, In har
mony with the President and with the
Senate, on the onettide. and a disorgan
ized. inharmonious and faction-ridden
ReDUblican party on the other.
As such things go. Representative
Mann, of Illinois, the Republican floor
leader, is the logical Republican can
didate for SpeaKer when the next
House comes to organize. But there is
opposition to Mr. Mann, and he cannot
command the solid support ot tne lie
publican, membership.
-Revolt Llkrlr to Defeat Mann.
How many Republicans would refuse
to support him is impossible to say,
butihe probabilities are that enough
Republicans would revolt to make im
possible the election of the present
floor leader, and any such revolt would
only operate to make certain the re
election of Speaker Clark.
Representative Gardner, of Massa
chusetts, recently opened the fight on
Mann by proposing Representative
Lenroot. of . Wisconsin, as the Repub
lican choice for Speaker. With his
DroDosition there are two serious de
fects; one is that Gardner 1s the leader
of the revolt, and the other Is tha
Lenroot, the man of his choice, is abou
as noDUlar personally with the mem
bershin as is Mr. Mann, of Illinois. Mr.
Gardner wants to become a big facto
in the House, but no other members
are in accord with him, and he will not
get far. His idea was to have Lenroot
made Speaker, and he himself would
like to become floor leader. That will
never come about.
Republicans Lark Cohesion.
The way In which Gardner staged hi
revolt is only another indication of
what is the trouble with the Republic
ana of the. House. They are a group of
individuals, each acting for himself and
each acting without consulting others
there is no organization; there .ire n
party conferences; there Is no spirl
of harmony, and. apparently, no deep
seated desire for harmony. FdV this,
Representative Mann is partly to blame.
For years, Mann has been heralded
as a great party leader. He is not.
As a party leader in the House, Mann
ts decidedly a misfit. Under his lead
ershtp, the Republicans do not caucus
or hold conferences; when partisan
questions arise, there is no effort to
ascertain the prevailing Republican
sentiment and have the Republicans act
together. Mann is not supported by an
organization. His has been a one-man
leadership. He has not attempted to
develop lieutenants to aid him in the
conduct of legislation, as did the lead
ers who preceded him: rather, he has
attempted to do the whole thing, and
he has undertaken more than one man
can accomplish.
Mann Would Make Good Speaker.
Yet for all that. Mann would make a
good Speaker; he is as well fitted to be
speaker as any man the Republicans
can put forward; he ts much better
equipped for Speaker than floor leader,
for he knows parliamentary law better
than any other man in Congress, re
gardless of party, and he would' know
how to preside. Mann's fitness is all
for the Speakership. Yet, because of
his conduct as fjoor leader, he has
made enemies who rise and threaten
to defeat him for the Speakership In
December.
So the prospect favors the retention
of Mann as floor leader of the minor
ity, the re-election of Clark ' as
Speaker and a continuance of the old
party bickering on the ttepuDiican siae.
Unless this situation is remedied be
fore the new House undertakes to or
ganize, there is not one chance in
10 that enough .of the Independent
members will vote with the Repub
licans to give them control. Lack of
Republican harmony Is going to drive
the Independents to the Democratic
camn on the organization vote at
least.
