.Indications given by the Incomplete
count in up-state counties and Mult
nomah indicate that an extremely light
vote was cast yesterday on state meas
ures, and that all the amendments and
bills, with the probable exception of
the amendment creating the office of
lieutenant-governor, have carried.
As to some of these measures the re
sult is a practical certainty. In none
of the 15 upstate counties from which
partial returns have been received is
there an adverse vote on the Roosevelt
highway bill, the educational aid bill
fur soldiers, sailors and marines and
the market tax bill. As Multnomah
couiitj also voted strongly in favor of
these measures their adoption seems
spttied.
Kastem Orcxun for Irrigation.
While indications point to the ap
proval of the amendment guaranteeing
interest for five years on the bonds of
irrigation and drainage districts, some
of the Willamette valley counties have
gone against the measure. The eastern
Oregon and the coast counties gener
ally have gone in its favor.
In nearly all counties approval is in
dicated of the amendment authorizing
counties to create indebtedness for road
building up to 6 per cent of their as
sfssed valuation.
Tho reconstruction bonding bill, au
thorizing an issue of $3,000,000 for
building purposes and for co-operating
with the government in land reclama
tion, and the enabling constitutional
amendments that went with it, seem to
havo met a varying sentiment in the
counties of the state. The two amend
ments pertain to the location of the
reconstruction hospital, which is pro--Med
for in the reconstruction bill, and
e authority to adopt the bond bill.
Multnomah Vote Aids.
"While carlv returns Indicate si dr3l
vote upstate on these three measures,
it appears that the favorable vote cast
for them in Multnomah will pull them
through.
Tiie amendment creating the office
of lieutenant-governor seems to have
been more favorably received in coun
ties outside of Multnomah than in Port
land, yet the affirmative majority, if
there is one in the upstate counties,
probably will be offset by the adverse
vote in Multnomah.
A notable feature of the election was
the indorsement given the Roosevelt
highway and the market tax bill. The
coast counties, which will particularly
benefit from construction of the Roose
velt highway went almost unanimously
for it. Eastern Oregon, so far as re
ported seems also to have given Its ap
proval, while in turn the coast counties
have rallied handsomely in support of
the irrigation measure.

General apathy had charge of the

There was no fight to amount to any
thing on the bond, measures in any
quarter. Nevertheless certain school

them on general principles.
On Saturday a letter was mailed to
every voter in the county urging him
to go to the polls and vote yes on
every bond and construction measure.
The measures were thoroughly ex

SAILOR PUT ADRIFT
BY BRUTAL SKIPPER
STORY OF SEA MURDER AXD
CRUELTY TOLD IX COURT.
Ancient Form of Indictment Is Used
by Government In Trial
of Seafarers.
NEW YORK, June- 3. Seafaring of
the sort that flourished In the early
18th century, when a foremast hand
was virtually a slave and his brawny
skipper, -med with a belaying pin,
his undisputed master, was described
in federal court here today by John W.
Campbell, a 22-year-old high school
boy of Maquoketa, la., who answered
the call of the sea and ran away from
home to ship with Skipper Adolph C.
Pedersen -as cabin boy on the anti
quated barkentine Puako.
Campbell was the first witness for
the government, which has charged
Pedersen and his eon, Adolph, mate
of the Puako, In an old-fashioned in
dictment with trie murder on the high
seas of Axel Hansen, a seaman. They
are alleged to have driven Hansen
overboard by cruelty, and to have left
him to perish in the eea.
An old English style prisoner s dock
had been constructed in the courtroom
to match the antiquated form of the
indictment, which used to carry the
penalty upon conviction of hanging on
a public gallows.
Campbell was asked to recite twhat
happened on board the Puako on the
morning of August 6, 1918, as the ltttle
vessel clipped through the waves with
all sails set for Cape Town, South
Africa. v
t came on deck at 4 A. M. to stand
watch," Campbell began. "Jack Joe,
Henry Riley and Axel Hansen were in
the same watch and were already on
deck.
"The captain's son, who was in
charge, told Hansen to go aloft and
loose the royal'sl. Hansen went aloft
and loosened tl.e sail. He then came
down and I saw him talking to the
mate.
"Suddenly I heard a sharp sound as
of one man slapping another's face.
Then I saw the mate strike and kick
Hansen, and Hansen came racing down
the deck with the mate close behind
him. When he got to the starboard
side, near the stern, he slipped under
the rail and went overboard."
The mate, Campbell continued, ran to
the wheel and ordered Jack Toe to
bring the ship about, but a moment
later Skipper Pedersen appeared,
looked over the stern of the bark
where Hansen was clinging to a log
line and then turned to the helmsman
demanding to know who ordered hint
to swing the ship around.
"There is a man overboard and the
second mate told me to swing the wheel
about," Campbell said Jack Toe
answered.
"To hell Qv ith the man overboard,"
Campbell declared the skipper yelled.
"Then," the witness continued, "he
ordered Jack Joe to turn th boat back
into its course, and, picking up a tiller
pin, ordered both Riley and myself to
go below. As I started forward I looked
back in the sea and saw Hansen strug
gling at the end of the log line, and
I heard him shriek for help three
times. The vessel continued on its
course and Hansen was left to perish
in the sea."
The Puako left Campbell at Cape
Town while he was ill in a hospital, he
explained, and he went to the American
consul and made a statement similar in
detail to his testimony today.
During the trip to Cape Town, he de
clared, every man on board, with the
exception of himself and the ship's car
penter, were taken below, and after be
ing placed in irons were beaten until
their bodies were covered with welts.
A heavy piece of wire and a razor storp.
he testified, were employed by the skip
per and his son to administer the pun
ishment. They also kicked the pris
oners with their heavy boots, he de
clared. Skipper Pedersen, he said, re
ferred to punishment as the "third de
gree." FOG FORCES AIRMAN DOWN

tiori of the bomb explosions in eight
cities, which were intended to kill pub
lic men, has convinced secret service
chiefs here that the outrages had i
common source, and that they prob
ably can be classed as an unsuccessful
attempt on the part of a still unknown
anarchistic group to resume a cam
paign of terrorism begun with the May
day attempt to deliver a series of In
fernal machines through the mails out
of New York.
Washington police today devoted ef
forts to reassembling fragments of" the
man who was killed last night at the
door of Attorney-General Palmer's
home, while attempting to plant his
cargo of explosives.
Mr. Palmer himself dismissed the in
cidents today as "utter failure to ter
rorize the country and stay the hand
of the government," which purpose he
ascribed to the authors of the out
rages. Police Work In Concert.
Police at New York, Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, Cleveland, Newtonville,
Mass.; Boston and Paterson, N. J.,
were engaged in the widespread hunt.
Detectives were sent from Washington
to the first two named cities in order
to connect up operations.
: The hat ot the Washington bomb
planter, purchased in Philadelphia, and
other details, indicated a possibility
that the consignment of explosives ha'd
been sent out from there. Another
connecting link in the view of author
ities here was the similarity of the
anarchistic handbills found near the
scene of the explosions in several cities.
Government experts on explosives,
after surveying the site of the explo
sion here and the partially demolished
dwelling, came to the conclusion that
two separate bombs exploded, probably
when the man carrying them tripped
over a stone step at the entrance.

International Situation.
(By the Associated Press.)
THERE is a probability that Germany
may secure, as a result ,of her
strong counter-proposals, some lessen
ing in the severity of the peace terms.
Germany's pleas that it will be impos
sible to fulfil the financial require
ments of the allies, and her protests
against certain territorial relinquish
ments, have been heeded and are being
discussed by the council of four. Paris
report has it that in certain quarters
of the peace conference the German
viewpoint is receiving strong support.
A full discussion of the German
counter-proposals, especially concern
ing reparations and other economic
features of the treaty, has been held
by President Wilson and the staff of
American experts. Great Britain is
said, to favor a number of concessions
to Germany, but France continues firm
in her stand not to waver from the
original terms. The Americans are de
clared to be not averse to minor con
cessions, but are not In favor of going
to the extent the British propose.
The German government is incensed
over the formation of a Rhenish re
public. It has ordered the arrest of Dr.
Dorten, the president of the republic,
and also has protested to the peace
conference and the armistice commis
sion at Spa against the behavior of the
French authorities in the occupied
Rhineland. The French support of
the Rhenish republic Is characterized
by the German government as high
trea.-jn against the empire. Strikes by
dissatisfied Germans in the American-
occupied area, called in protest against
the formation of the republic, ended
Quickly when the American authorities
issued a warning against the move
ment.
The supreme council has been re
quested by the Lithuanian peace dele
gation to have an allied commission In
vestigate alleged pogroms and other
illegal acts by the Poles in occupied
Lithuania.
An unconfirmed report has reached
Copenhagen that Petrograd has been
captured by Finnish and Esthonian
troops.
The head of the Austrian peace dele
gation has departed from St. Germain
for Innsbruck, carrying with him the
allied peace treaty. Counter revolu
tions are reported from numerous
towns in western Hungary.
Sweden and Denmark have come into
line with Switzerland and Norway in
declining to join a blockade against
Germany in case Germany refuses to
sign the peace treaty, on the plea that
such action would be a vii latlon of
their neutrality.
Big strikes have begun in Paris, Lille
and other cities in France.
COAL PRICE WAR FORECAST

Conies True.
SALT LAKE CITY, June 3 A war
between coal producers of Wyoming
and Utah which may force the price to
low levels in August was made ap
parent here today at the annual meet
ing of the Utah Retail Coal Dealers'
association, which was addressed by
prominent coal operators of both states.
D. A. Pape, representing the Eccles
coal interests in Wyoming, during the
meeting announced that within 10 days
an announcement would be made of the
purchase by the Eccles interests of one
of the largest coal producing properties
in Utah. Mr. Pape refused to amplify
his statement, saying that the an
nouncement would not be made - for
several days.

cars carrying employes to the plant,
smashed the car windows with stones
and bricks, and pulled workers into the
streets wh,ere they were beaten. The
situation flamed into a pitched battle
tonight, when idle workers numbering
tOOO, including many women, stormed
fiw entrances of the-plant as the "em
ployes were leaving, beat them with
clubs and felled them with a shower of
stones and bricks.

A ith the Dossible ext ern ion nf th.
measure creating the office of lieu
tenant-governor, an or the measures
on the state ballot have apparently
carried in Portland and Multnomah
county.
There was a remarxably light vote
" esteraay s special election, and not
withstanding the vast sums of bonds
submitted for the approval or rejection
or the public, and proposals to add new
tax levies on the people, only 22 per
cent of the registered vote went to the
polls. This is the smallest percentage
of a registered vote that has been cast
in an election of this character since
Oregon had a registration law.
Election Wlttwut Ineide.
The election in Portland was abso-
I l'Jtely devoid of incident, other than

I tees who have been campaigning for
SOme of the more ,mP""tant measures
had hoped for a 50 per cent vote, but
the figures disclose that less than half
that per cent was attracted to the polls.
There appears to have been the
greater unanimity regarding the state
measures than the measures on the mu
nicipal ballot. The practice of voters
.was to mark their ballot yes" almost
exclusively on the staet ballot. There
had been an organized effort on the
part of friends of several measures to
get out the vote, and had it not been
for this the percentage of voters tak
ing the trouble to pass on more than
$9,000,000 of bonds would have been
even less. No organized opposition to
any measure developed anywhere In the
city.
Reports . from 75 precincts, mostly
complete, show that the Port of Port
land measure has carried by a big ma
jority of votes cast. The returns from
these precincts give 1576 votes for and
657 votes against the issue of $1,000.00"
cf bonds to aid in the establishment of
water transportation line?.
New Office Not Approved.
The Vote against the lieutenant-gov
ernor measure in 75 precincts" was 1466
to 1000 votes favorable. Twice before
this measure has been turned down by
the people. Although the measure was
the source of considerable agitation in
Salem during the legislature and a
bitter fight was made to pass the bill
and refer it to the people, when the
election was held none of the men
who had advocated the measure made
any speeches or wrote articles recom-
mending it.
With a margin of 449 to the good
the reconstruction bill. otherwise
known as the $5,000,000 bond measure,
has every prospect of carrying in Mult
nomah. There are 1481 favorable votes
and 1032 unfavorable in the totals of
'5 precincts.
Apparently the Roosevelt highway
will prove the most popular of the
measures on the state ballot. With
1949 votes for it, the bill has a lead of
1283 over the opposition to it.
The measure to increase a county's
road Indebtedness from 2 per cent to 6
per cent will carry in this county, it
having 1664 votes for it and 820 against
in the returns thus far received.
Rsral Road Favored.
Although Multnomah county will fare
worse than any other county in tne
state by the market roads tax bill, the
measure Is safe In Portland. There are
15S8 for anw 857 votes against it. Aside
from Multnomah, every county can
take from the road fund thus raised
more money than it puts in. Mult
nomah and Portland money will be
used to build roads in all other coun
ties.
Another of the state measures meet
ing with support in Portland is the
measure to have the state guarantee
the payment of interest on bonds of
irrigation and drainage districts. There
were 1516 votes for the measure In 75
precincts and 901 against, giving the
measure a lead of 615.
For the soldiers' aid bill, which in
intended to assist them to the extent of
$200 a year toward defraying their edu
cational expenses, Portland has also
placed the seal of approval, with 1670
affirmative votes to 19 negative, giv
ing a majority for of 751.
The amendment to the constitatloD
authorizing the bonding of the stata
for $5,000,000, which is a companion bUl
to the reconstruction masure, is running
BOND
about the same as the latter.
For the Industrial hospital measure,
amending the constitution, there are
1553 to 925 votes against it. The meas
ure was essential to enable the estab
lishment of a state hospital In Portland.
