ONE SHOT HITS JAPANESE Bix Bullets Fired at Armed China man and Assailants Elude Pur- suing Police Bing Kong-Bow Leong Members Suspected. 6EATTLE. Wash.. Aos. 26. A Chin ese, identified as Tee Bing-, alleged head gunman for the Hop Sing tong on the Pacific Coast, was shot through the head and Instantly killed in the Chinese quarter of Seattle early tonight by two Chinese alleged to be members of the Bing Kong-Bow Leong tong. The murdered man, who was walking along the street with a loaded revolver In his belt, was set upon and killed be fore he had any chance to defend him self. Two policemen made after his assailants almost immediately, but the latter managed to elude their pursuers. Six shots were fired at Tee Bing. One of them struck K. Susuki, a Japa nese expressman, in the neck. Ills wound was not serious, however. Tee Bing was wanted in Seattle on a charge of murdering Charlie Ling, a rival tongman. June 11. He is believed to have been responsible for numerous other murders along the Coast. Local police officials are fearful that another outbreak of tong warfare along the Coast will result from tonight's shooting. Peace pacts between tong leaders and Federal and state officials hav resulted in a condition of com parative peace during the past two or three months. 3 0-DAY ARMISTICE ORDERED Tong Headquarters at San Fran cisco Order Truce. A 30-day armistice to pave the way for permanent peace has been declared by warring Chinese tongs on this Coast, to begin August 30. News of this truce came yesterday to Detective Tichenor, who has been working for weeks to arrange a permanent settle ment of existing differences between the opposing Chinese societies here. A telegram from tons headquarters at Ean Francisco ordered the truce into effect. Detective Tichenor, acting under the direction of the city authorities, has been striving to reach a basis for a permanent reconciliation of differences for some time. Saturday it seemed that all efforts would be fruitless, for the Bing Kong-Bow Leong tong closed their headquarters and refused to con sider further negotiations. Orders re ceived yesterday include these tongs. as well as the Hip Sing tong, their ally, and the Hop Sing and Suey Sing tongs, with whom the first namea so cieties are at war. Since last February local Chinatown has resembled an armed camp. There have been frequent outbreaks between the rival tongs and several Chinese were killed in pitched street battles, while several white persons and Chinese spectators were wounded. Fre quent attempts to arrange permanent peace have been unavailing heretofore. BUTTE MINERS ARE IDLE all, copper mixes of district are shut dowx. Three Thousand Men Q.nlt Work at Wahoe Smelting Plant of Anaconda , Company Strike la Spreading. BUTTE, Aug. 2 6. Butte's streets to day were crowded with thousands of miners, idle because of the shutdown of all the copper mines of the district, made necessary by the closing Friday of the Washoe smelting plant of the Anaconda Copper Mining Company at Anaconda, when, of 3000 men employed on the day shift, only 110 reported for work. It is expected the company's plant in Great Falls will be closed with in a day or two, as soon as the ore in transit has been sent through the smel ter. Indications are that the independent mines of the district, which did not shut down Friday, will be compelled to cease operations in the near future. These Include the zinc-producing properties, among them the Butte & Superior, Elm Orlu and others. Miners gradually are falling to report for work at the inde pendent properties. There is a belief here that the ma chinists' union will declare a strike soon. The machinists have formulated new demands, which, they declare, they will insist upon. tJeveral weeks ago they accepted the agreement reached between the operat ing companies and the State Metal Trades Council. MUGK CLAIM IS SCORED DA'S MALARKEY SATS SITE OV MTT- AICIPAL DOCK IS SECURE. Former Owner Points Out That Pre vious Attempt to Get River Prop "' erty Was a Fallare. "There is not the least shadow of merit to the claim," said Dan J. Ma larkey, attorney, and one of the own ers of the elevator site which recently was sold to the Public Docks Commis sion, in denouncing the contention of A. A. Muck, County Commissioner, that be has established a homestead along the river in front of the elevator prop erty. "There is ' absolutely nothing to it," he continued, in disposing of Mr. Muck's contentions that he has discov ered an unappropriated piece of land between the elevator site and the ac tual meander line of the river. "Mr. Muck went down there about five years ago and squatted in front of the Weyerhaeuser property. He filed his homestead claim at the local Land-office and they rejected it. Then be appealed to the General Land-office and finally to the Secretary of the In terior. He was thrown out all along the line. He filed a second claim and went through the same procedure and was thrown out every time. Now he has a third claim pending. "It is Just the same as if I'd pretend to file a homestead on the corner of Blxth and Alder streets where The Oregonian building stands, or on any other occupied piece of property. Any- one would know that I was there merely to make trouble." Mr. Malarkey explained that he and his associates have given the Dock Commission a binding contract to pro tect and indemnify the city against any difficulties that may develop through the Muck case or any other case. Construction of the grain ele vator need not be delayed, he said. "We would be only too glad," he added, "were Mr.' Muck or anyone else to start injunction proceedings or any other kind of proceedings on the ground that the Commission did not have title to the elevator site. "We have been familiar with Mr. Muck's case for the last five years and know every record and every step that he has made. The highest au thorities of the National Government have ruled against him and we are confident that the city will not be mo lested in its plans to build a grain elevator." Mr. Malarkey continued with a vig orous defense of the property obtained by the Commission. It has every ad vantage necessary, he enumerated: first, it is below the bridges; second, it is accessible to both railroad sys tems, the O.-W. R. & N. now serving it direct, and the North Bank system be ing only a short distance away; third, it is on the east siCe of the river, where most of the grain coming to Portland arrives; fourth, the river at that point has ample width to permit vessels to turn around; fifth, the sur rounding territory will permit indus trial development at lowest possible cost. "Neither myself nor my associates own. any property In the neighbor hood." he concluded, "and we have sold the tract to the city without strings tied to it. "Any Investigation, we are confi dent, will prove that the Commission obtained the best possible site at an entirely reasonable figure." 4-UIHUTE MEN TO TALK EXPERIENCED SPEAKERS WILL IN FORM PUBLIC. Motion Picture Theaters Throughout Country Will Be Forums for Dissem ination of Kewi on War Topics. Once upon a time. In the days of Co re cord and Lexington, an organization known as the Minute Men was a power ful aid to the Nation in war. Again the Nation is at war, and again the echo of the Minute Men Is heard. This time, however, it Is the Four-Minute Men, under the direct control of the Four-Minute staff at Washington. The Four-Minute Men are all experi enced public speakers, who will. In the future, deliver four-minute addresses in the motion picture theaters of the various cities of the country on sub jects of which the Government wishes its citizens to be informed. Material for the lectures Is to be fur nished by Washington. Some of the subjects to be explained in the near future are the National Army, the se lective draft, the Red Cross, the liberty loan, increased efficiency and produc tion, universal service for war, rea sons why the United States Is at war and food conservation. A good many Americans who-think they know all about these subjects are scheduled for some surprises when they hear the Government s theories and intentions. Washington appoints state chairmen for the movement. Sherman R. Hall, In the Lewis building at Portland, has been appointed for the state of Oregon. The state chairmen will in turn appoint community chairmen, and committees will be organized to select speakers and make arrangements for the deliv ery of the addresses. The movement Is official and strictly non-partisan. It Is under the direction of President Wilson, Food Adminis trator Hoover and other high Govern ment officials.

MEN TEACHERS ARE FEW Principals In Iowa Schools Are Nearly All Women. DES MOINES, la, Aug. 26. Women of Iowa are rapidly monopolizing a field of work which was practically un known to them 15 years ago. The field la that of principal in the high schools of the state, and the method used by the women in crowding men out of this niche in the educational world has been to accept smaller sal aries than men would work for. These are the facts which have been disclosed in a study of 200 Iowa high schools by two graduate students at the State University, under the direc tion of Professor E. E. Lewis, of the department of education. In 1903, when men principals were three times as numerous as women principals, the average salary for the women was $725, or $91 higher than the men principals' salaries. Ten years later, when there were three times as many women principals as men, the medium salary for women had dropped $59, while the men's salaries had leaped to $1091, an increase of $457. A study of 183 high schools in the past five years has revealed that nine out of this number pay less now than they did in 1912; 18 towns pay the same salary paid five years ago; 42 In creased the salary less than $100, and 52 towns increased from $100 to $199 in the five-year span. The average increase In salary in this time has been $135, or 13.3 per cent. . REPORT FOR PRESIDENT JUDGE COVINGTON COMPLETES LABOR INVESTIGATION. Summary of Conditions Found la Ore Ton and Washington Is Given Without Comment, Chief Justice J. Harry Covington, of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, sent to the Northwest by President Wilson to make a personal investigation of labor conditions in the lumber camps and mills, left Portland last night for home. Judge Covington will report direct. and it will depend upon the President himself whether the report becomes public property. While In Portland Judge Covington conferred with various timber oper ators, lumber manufacturers and rep resentatives of the workingmen. He was not sent here, he explained, to at tempt a reconciliation of any differ ences, but rather to find, if he could. the fundamental underlying causes. Although he would make no com ment on his observations, Judge Cov- ngton found conditions in Oregon and Washington substantially as follows: The white pine belt of Northern Idaho and the Inland Empire is oper ating about 60 per cent of its capacity production. The I. W. W. have secured domination in several small mills. Shingle mills of the Puget Sound country are demoralized on account of the strike for the eight-hour day. This triko is distinguished from the L W. W. strike, as it is conducted by the International Shingle Weavers' Union, opposed to the L W. W. and their methods. The fir mills of Western Washington are in bad shape. Many are prepared to close and remain closed until relief of some sort is provided. The fir mills of Western Oregon are running on practically a normal basis. Mill workers of Portland and ' imme diate vicinity are organizing under the protection of the American Federation of Labor, and may sooner or later pre sent demands for higher wages and shorter hours.

COFFEE 60 CENTS A CUP Passengers Arriving From Denmark Paint Picture of Starving In habitants Who Cannot Face Next Winter's Hardship. NEW YORK, Aug. 26. (Special.) Passengers arriving today at an Atlan tic port from Denmark said that eco nomic conditions in Germany at the oresent time were so strained that they did not believe the war would last through the coming Winter. The sol diers in the battle fields, they said, were feeling the lack of proper food and numbers of them, when they were home on leave, had told their families that the? armies could not stand an other Winter's hardships in the trenches. William Bartholomew, manager for 20 years of the Holland Oil Company In Hamburg, returned today in poor health through lack of nourishing food. He has lost 50 pounds In weight since the commencement of the war. When asked about food "conditions In Ger many, Mr. Bartholomew said: Bartholomew Kept Prisoner. "It is impossible to get a square meal anywhere, so you can imagine that liv ing in Germany is pretty tough. For the last six weeks before I left Ger many I was kept at my house in what the German officials call seclusion, and not allowed to go anywhere or see any body, which, I assume, was done to prevent my carrying any news away with me. I was glad to get away and am going to my native city, Philadel phia, where I hope to remain for the rest of my days." He told his friends that all the food in Germany was sent to the soldiers on the battle fronts and the suffering among the civilians was very severe. Miss Petronella Johnson, another passenger who had been spending three months in Northern Europe, said that the American embargo would cause Intense distress among the people of the Scandinavian countries. She said cof fee costs 60 cents in American cur rency for a cup at a restaurant and a square meal costs the equivalent of J2.50 in United States currency. Crops Are Said to Be Poor. Another passenger on the ship was Axel Bahnson, who said that two years ago the living conditions in Germany became so poor and difficult that he sent his family to Denmark and Joined them there a month ago. When he left Germany everything was much worse and the prospect for the people in re gard to the food supply next Winter was serious. This year's crops are be low the average, he said, and would not be sufficient to supply the demands of the nation. WEST PLEASES AT OAKS RECORD-BREAKING CROWD EX- JOYS PARK FOR DAY. Maslcal Extravaganza Prove to Be Two Hoari of Best Hnmor Man ager II aa Developed. Continued record-breaking crowds are attending the Oaks and yesterdays visitors almost doubled the correspond Ing day of last year. When the season draws the curtains on the Oaks this year, it will be after the best in four years, all of which may or may not be due to the fact that Willis G. West and his musical extravaganza put on a new bill, which scored more clean numor istic knockouts and catchy songs than any show which they have staged this season.

All of that created situations that just tangled and tangled and when the end finally did straighten matters out. a good many brand-new jokes and some clever character songs had been passed out to the crowd.

PEACE NOT TO BE URGED CATHOLIC FEDERATION TO IN DORSES POPE'S NOTE, HOWEVER. Any Effort to Embanau United States Government Will Be Opposed by Delegates. KANSAS CITT, Aug. 26. Peace and Pope Benedict's proposal to the bellig erents that a way be sought to end hostilities are expected to occupy an important place in deliberations of the 16th annual convention of the Ameri can Federation of Catholic Societies which began here today to continue until Wednesday. Federation officials today practi cally admitted that the Pontiff's pro posals would be indorsed, but said they expected it would , be entirely along broad lines. They characterized as absurd the idea that the convention might urge the American Government to accept the proposal, declaring any attempt to force action which would tend to em barrass the Government in the war against Germany would be frowned upon by the delegates. The conven tion opened today with a pontifical high mass at which Mons. Giovanni Bonzano, an apostolic delegate to the United States, officiated. The sermon was delivered by Arch bishop Edward J. Hanna, of San Fran cisco. Tonight the visitors attended a mass meeting at which Archbishop John J. Glennon, of St. Louis, presided.
