It is possible, however, that the reso lution mav be called up tomorrow or Saturday and an effort made to secure a test vote, revealing the exact division of senate opinion. ' Leaders said tonight that their plans were indefinite. ., Various proposals for co-ordinating the speaking tours of senators who are to reply to President Wilson were murh discussed during the day. There Is considerable sentiment favoring a special car to follow the president on his speaking trip, but several leaders are opposed to it and the general pre diction tonight was that the senators would go out separately. Hoaae Also Talks Peace. Discussion of the league broke out in the house today also. Representative Temple, republican, of Pennsylvania, criticising President Wilsons refusal ti send the treaty text to the senate until completed. The president. Mr. Temple said, had declared he found no precedent for sending a treaty still In negotiation, whereas such a precedent was established by Washington and followed by Polk. Lincoln, Johnson and Grant. DR. MORROW CHOSEN AGAIN fi'Anttniird From Klr-t fe t"a fact. Some few may be prompted In that way. but not many. One man ns. our executive committee, who sup ported Dr. Morrow .would not serve it bamberlain Is nominated. My own cpmloa la that slate chairman should t. neutral until nominees have; been selected at the primary and then get behind the ticket." Seaater'a Keerd I - Anticipating some knocks against t-hamberlaln. Jmlse Crawford and Senator Garland had prepared a set f resolutions lauding Mr. VSilson and i lading: up as follows: -And be it further resolved that we are praud of the splendid services ren dered our state and nation by United Males Senator GeorBe E. Chamberlain: that his untiring efforts and fruitful work as chairman of the senate mili tary committee in preparing and guid ing through congress the great war measures which made victory pos sible. Is worthy of the highest praise: that his seal, manifested at all times In behalf of the American soldier in the ranks, challenges the admiration of every patriotic citizen: that his con structive record In the senate is wtth put parallel in history and places him In the ranka of the nations lesding statesmen." The resolution saa enthusiastically applauded. Dartorlnc af Mlaaten Cnargra. Indications that all would not run emoolhtv .at the meeting came when Mr. (iarland called for the minutes of the preMous meeting, meaning the one of last month a hen Dr. Morrow was elected naii"nal committeeman. Mrs. Alexander Thompson, read. Instead, the minutes of the meeting of June S3. and Chairman Starkweather said it was the last reitular meeting of the committee. George lv)oy asserted that the minutes read had not been written until recently in the office of Mr. Starkweather and subsequent rvents since the year-age meeting had colored their writing. Pertinent ques tions from Mr. Garland caused Mr. Starkweather to admit that some mem bers of the state committee got to gether last month and did something or other, but he didn't consider It legal. Asked, point blank. If he had not refused to Issue a call for the May meeting, the state chairman proceeded to explain. Dr. Morrow. Mr. Lovejoy and C. l McKenna supported a motion directing the chairman to can ina meeting, but Mrs. Thompson. Colonel K. A- Miller and himself voted against lha motion, so. there being a tic. the call was not Issued and later Dr. Morrow issued a call. Mr. Stark weather said that S.7 democrats bad not asked for a call and only three had. A few days ago. however, when X'r. Morrow, reinforced with four other committeemen, demanded a call with the alternative of using: it themselves if Mr. Starkweather declined, the call was lssuetl. Mr. West Informed Mr. Starkweather that the public had a right to draw the conclusion the state chairman was opposed to a meeting when he voted against calling one. To this Mr. Stark weather answered that the executive committee has fall power, and so far as a national committeeman Is con cerned, the national committee has been accepting the functions of the executive committee rather than the action of voters in democratic pri maries on national committeeman. Mr. M eat Names Mr. McCoy. Preliminaries having been disposed of. the meeting ot down to making nominations. Mr. Lovejoy named Dr. Morrow. Mr. West, saying he wanted the friends of Mr. McCoy to feel he had a square deal, placed McCoy in nomination, with the explanation that Js did not intend voting for him. On rollcall Dr. Morrow had Z votes ano Mr. McCoy one. This solitary vote was cast by Committeeman Wall of Wash ington, who explained thaf-he did eo out of courtesy. Mrs. Thompson, who voted repeatedly against Dr. Morrow when the executive committee was trying- to elect a national committee, man. and then voted for Mr. McCoy when Dr. Morrow's absence in Chicago was taken advantage of to elect Mr. McCoy, held a proxy for Sherman coun ty. She said she would not vote for either Mr. McCoy or Dr. Morrow as they represented factions. Following announcement of the roll call. Chairman Starkweather smilingly declared Dr. Morrow duly and regularly and legally elected as national com mitteeman. Mrs. "Weber's Meetln Ignored.- And did that end the troubles of the day? It did not. just to be on the safe side r.nd see that the antl-Cham-berlain people are not too gay when Xational Chairman Cumraings visits Portland, Judge Crawford moved the election of the following committee tp make arrangements: H. G. Stark weather, Oswald West. George Lovejoy, Dr. J. W. Morrow. Sam L. Garland, Mrs. Louise Palmer -Weber and Mrs. Alexander Thompson. Mr. Starkweather didn't like the Idea of the committee. He had already telegraphed a programme to Mr. Cum mings. The programme sounded good, except in one spot July 1 the visitors are to be taken over the highway, and at night there will be a banquet. The "nleicr in the woodnlle" came out. Mrs. Thompson has arranged a meeting for women at the Benson June zu. airs. Weber has arranged a meeting at the Portland hotel July 1. The. Stark weather programme, drafted by the ex ecutive committee, of which Mrs. Thompson is a member, had deliberated ly ignored, left out and passed up airs. Weber's meeting. Mrs. Thompson Skews Papers. From a handbag Mrs. Thompson pulled a roll of paper, which she said was an engraved certificate appoint ing her the Oregon representative of the national women's democratic com mittee. By virtue of her authority, full and complete, she has arranged all de tails for her. meeting and didn't need the assistance or advice of the com mittee suggested by Judge Crawford. She said she was born in Kentucky, near the birthplace of the man who said he would rather be right than president. Courte.y of the floor was extender to Mrs. Weber. She observed that she didn't consider It necessary to give her pedigree, although she was born near where Abraham lived for many years. Mrs. Weber had letters directing her to arrange for a meeting of clubwomen, liberty loan workers and suffragists, and she had simply complied. Mrs. Weber enumerated the well-known women who will SQjtak at her meeting She didn't see how Mrs. Thompson's meeting and her meeting would clash, and she wanted to work in harmony. Both Meetings Approved. Mrs. Thompson let the men present understand that she Is vested In au thority direct from Mrs. Bass, who is accompanying Mr. Cummings. whereas the request sent to Mrs. Weber was merely from the secretary or Mrs. Bass, and Mrs. Thompson informed the men that she intends being chairman of her own meeting. "My meeting." explained Mrs. Weber, "will be women only." "So will mine." asserted Mrs. Thomp son, "but I will have the star speaker. Homer S. Cummings, democratic na tional chairman. My authority " Suave, silver-tongued Senator Gar land interposed, lie moved that both meetings be approved, which they were, and that the two beautiful, eloquent, gracious women work together for the democracy they love. Later, when Mrs. Weber Invited Mrs. Thompson to her meeting, Mrs. Thompson refused. Fonda te Star la Oregon. The last democratic campaign was made on 11500. said Mr. Starkweather, while the republicans spent 7S00. The democrat lo candidates for senator and governor polled SS per cent of the registered democratic vote, while their opponents polled 40 per cent of the registered republican vote. Lack of funds and absence of local' tickets throughout the state were responsioie for the defeat of Candidates w est ana Pierce, asserted Mr. Starkweather. It was decided that instead of raising funds and sending the money to the national committee and then having t bea- for funds from the national committee, a new system win do triea. lr. Morrow will ral.-e funds ana turn them over to Mr. Starkweather, and after the proportion of the national committee is forwarded the reft will remain In Oregon. You can delay justice, but you can't defeat it," said Dr. Morrow. In thanking the committee for his election. "I had no part In making this factional fight. I'm s-ettina- sore ssylng that 1 am nobody's candidate and nobody believes me. It's the darndest. funniest thing. Rut I'll make 'em believe it by show Inn them. See? If I had 5000 I could nut this state In the democratic column as sure as your name Is what it is. And In going after tne money.- SEDITION CHARGE LOOMS CANADIAN OFFICIALS PREPARE FOR STRIKE JIE.YRIXG. Americans Determined That 'Their Ships Shall Kot Be Held Up. Austrian Treaty Unfinished. BY LINCOLN EYRE. -- (Copyright by th New Tork World. Pub- llsnea Dy arrangement.; PARIS. June 19. Special wireless.) British naval authorities here, while not denying that the' blockade of Ger many has been resumed, decline to comment on the reasons for the move. 'Why don't you ask at the Hotel Crlllon?" one criticiser inquired, but the Americans were unable to throw any light on tlte matter beyond reaf firming their determination not to per mit American food ships to be held up. It Is understood that vessels detained In Falmouth will proceed Immediately on their way toward Germany. The chief event in a dull day has been the appointment of an American mission- to investigate the Jewish sit uation in Poland. Lieutenant Colonel Warwick Greene, who represented Food Commissioner Hoover in the Baltic Drovinces. was offered the chairman ship of this commission but he prefers to continue at hie former line or worn. Knowledge of Baltic conditions Is spe cially needful at this time, owing to the resignation of members or tne American mission In Russia because of the big four's support of Admiral Kol- cbak. The council of five is trying half heartedly to make some headway to ward the completion of the Austrian treaty. Its progress has been unim portant and no date can be fixed for the presentation to tne Austriana i the balance of the treaty. It will cer tainly not occur during the absence of President Wilson in Belgium. Odds still seem against the accept ance of the revised treaty by the Scheidemann government Hope is ex pressed by the French orriciais mat Mathias Erzbcrger will construct a min istry prepared to accept the treaty terms.

Douglas SL Storrs, under sentence of five years tor the seduction of Ruth Garrison, slayer of his wife, returned to Seattle Thursday morning after his release from the Okanogan county jail Wednesday on a bond of J5000 de posited by Mrs. P. D. Smith, wife of his counsel. . Accompanied by P. D. Smith, his at torney. Storrs arrived in Seattle on the Great Northern Overland early this morning from OUanogan and went at once to the home of his mother, Mrs. Sibylla M. Storrs,, at 2434 Tenth ave nue North. Storrs' attorney is on his way to file an appeal from Storrs conviction with the supreme court in Olympta. In the usual course of events, Storrs appeal will not be passed upon by the supreme court until some day next November. Smith will base his appeal for a new trial on two main grounds, misconduct of the trial judge, John S. Jurey of Seattle, and misconduct of counsel for the defense. "I don't know just what I'll do." Storrs said today, at his moth er's home. "I don't know whether I'll stay in Seattle or go elsewhere until my appeal Is decided." When Storrs was convicted June 8 by an Okanogan Jury, his counsel told Judge Jurey that he would have his client out on ball, no matter at what amount the bond was fixed. His In tention provoked skepticism at the time, but the presence of Storrs in Se attle proves Smith's earnestness in the matter. CM SCENTS PLOT FAMILY IS SENT TO UNITED STATES, SAYS REPORT.
