HISTORY EXPERT WITNESS
PROFESSOR DOMXG TESTI
FIES AT FORD LIBEL TRIAL.
Tcuc-liings or Emma Goldman De
clared Not Found In Manu
facturer's Writings.
MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich., July 31.
Inference again was made to Samuel
Johnson and the doctrines of Kmma
Goldman, and Prince Peter Kropotkin
was quoted today in the hearing of
Henry Ford's libel suit against the
Chicago Daily Tribui.e.
Professor William A. Dunning of
Columbia university, an expert on his
tory and political science, was under
cross-examination by Elliott O. Steven-
ton, sen ior counsel for the defendant. I
It was finally established, according 1
to the testimony, that when Dr. John
son said "patriotism is the last refuge
of scoundrels," he referred to Edmund
Hjirke.
TCropotkin was quoted by Mr. Steven
son as writing:
"We specifically disavow treating
others as we would not have them
us."
Mr. Stevenson adduced that the scrip
tural equivalent of this is found in
Love thy neighbor as thyself." and
Do unto others as thou wouldst be
ione by."
"You told us yesterday that the es
sence of government is force?" re
minded Mr. Stevenson. Witness nodded
and was reminded that the stenog
rapher could not hear nods.
"And loyalty is another element of
government."
Professor Dunning said he did not
understand and the lawyer endeavored
to show how disloyalty can weaken
or destroy an army.
"I mean that if a soldier is worried
about those at home it would tend
to shake his loyalty."
"You start out with a broad ques
It ion and now you are becoming quite
ftpeeific," countered the witness.

where the word violence was included
as an essential in the definition of
anarchist."
"That agrees with my understand
5ng." said Professor Dunning.
"Does the law of the United States
allow anarchists to come into the
country ?"
"The law excludes

them," replied
Mr. Lucking quoted Emma Goldman
as writing:
"Anarchism rouses man against that
black monster (Ood;
Religion fetters the mind of man
"The state, with its theory of prop
erty, fetters the needs of men;
"Society enslaves the spirit of man!
The lawyer said these quotations
represented the essence of the teach
ings of Emma Goldman, and asked if
he found any such sentiments in Mr.
Ford's writings.
"1 did not." said Professor Dunning

the issue being extreme cruelty, was
satisfactory, the court said.
Countess de Bernard said her hus
band refused to work after their mar
riage, despite her solicitations, and
those of his and her mother. He drew
all of her monthly allowances out of
the bank, the plaintiff said, leaving
her nothing with which to pay bills
and this was a source of continuous
violent quarrels. During those quar
rels, the countess said her husband
often struck her. His actions, she said,

Reason Olvcn for Refusal of Dele
gates to Sign Treaty Giving Japan
Rights to Shantung.
CHICAGO, July 31. China will bo
the fitorm center of international poli
tic and commercial activity in the fu
ture, accord ing to C. C. Wu, vice -minister
of foreign affairs for the southern
government ot China, and ono of the
principal delegates of the Chinese peace
commission. Mr. Wu spent the day
here on his way to the coast. He is re
turning to China irom Paris.
To meet this condition. Mr. Wu ex
plained that his country was taking
.steps toward greater commercial effi
ciency and was a!o contemplating a
reorganization of the army so as to be
in a position to defend her rights.
The reason the Chinese delegates re
fused to sign the peace treaty which
gave the political and economic rights
of the Shantung province to Japan was
because China does not want to preju
dice herself as to Shantung in the fuT
tu re, M r. Wu declared.
"We want to be free to bring the mat
ter before the learrue of nations," he
said. "The concession which Japan has
made Is of no value to our country.
Practically the only part of the lease
hold to be returned to China under the
concession would be a bathing beach."

trict of The Dalles during the evening
The car was found this morning in a
road about two miles southeast of the
city.
Mr. Leclercq, with members of the
night police, secured a machine last
night and spent most of the night
looking for the stolen car. They fol
lowed one clue to Mosier. The car, when
taken, had not more than three gal
lons of gasoline, according to Mr. Lec
lercq Jr., who has been driving the
car. There were still two gallons

believed the party intended to get away
with the car, and not knowing the
roads got out of town on the wrong

FRANCE TO RATIFY AUG. 20
Japanese Signature to German
Treaty Expected Earlier.
PARIS, July 31. (By the Associated
PresnO It is expected in French cir
cles that the discussion of the German
peace treaty will open about August
10 in the chamber of deputies and will
continue for three or four days. There
will then be a three or four-day dis
cussion in the senate.
As Japan is supposed to have a copy
of the treaty by this time and the
emperor's ratification is expected at
an early date, French officials are of
the opinion that the treaty wili become
effective when the French ratify about
August 20. England already has rati

other great powers are necessary to
make if effective.

Ping ooaru tnat 100 steel ships of the
hike type have been sold to J. Herbert
Anderson f New York, representing
the Anderson Overseas corporation. The
best information at hand Indicates that
this buyer is J. Herbert Anderson, who
was for many years one of the leading
mining promoters of the northwest, am:
whose promotions were spectacular and
found worthy of much notice by the
newspapers, first favorably, then un
favorably.
J. Herbert Anderson lived at Spokane
tor several years, promoting the I'en
deroy smelter near Sand 1'oint in Pend
Oreille county, Idaho. Several hundred
thousand dollars were put in the smel
ter by moneyed men of the northwest
and one bank invested heavily in the
imelter's securities. The smelter was
not a success. This was only one of his
many promotions that attracted atten
tion in the northwest from about 1906
to 1911.

This was done, Mr. Robinson said, as
the result of an order by the Inter
state commerce commission, following
the Astoria rate case In which Astoria
was put on a rate parity with the
sound and Portland.
C'OHt Theory Asuatlrd.
The Northern Pacific's general freight
agent. Mr. Blakeley. testified -that In
Tils opinion nothing less than chaotic
conditions would result from the ap
plication of the cost of service prin
ciples in the making of freight rate.
He contended that any such advantages
as were claimed for the cost of serv
ice theory should be demonstrated be
fore they were accepted.
fahould cost of service be applied In
rate making. Mr. Blakeley said, the
Northern Pacific would be given the
advantage In its down-grade haul from
the Cascade tunnel east to Pasco, Port
land lines would be handicapped for
their up-river haul from Portland to
Pa scO.
The witness declared that the volume
of traffic feeding into the main lines
should bo considered in cost of serv
ice rates, and he contended that the
Northern Pacific had a big advantage
over the Spokane, Portland & Seattle
in this respect.
I.ambrr ftntea Considered.
This morning Mr. Blakeley testified I
regarding lumber rates, declaring that 1
they were established first from Port
land before the Northern Pacific was
built, and that when that road went
Into Tacoma it made the same rate,
although lumber had to be hauled the
additional distance to Portland and had
to bo ferried across the Columbia to
reach that point.
Henry Thurtell. chief examiner for
the commission, asked Mr. Blakeley if
the investments in terminals did not
make it necessary for rates from the
big stations to be greater than those
out of the smaller station, and the wit
ness said this was true.
The witness told J. N. Teal, cross
examining for Portland, that he could
not tell him to what extent service
costs entered into the making of ratrs.
"I dont know what it costs to move
any particular commodity over any par
ticular section of the Northern Pacific,"
he said. ,
Costs an I nkiown Matter.
"Does anybody know?" asked Henry
Clay Hall, chairman of the interstate
commerce division hearing the case.
"No. I don't think o." was the reply.
Mr. Teal asked a number of questions
regarding Mr. Blakeley's use of t" -i
word "chaotic." ask It. g if conditions
were as bad a- that In New York-Chicago
territory. The rep was that
those rates were standard rates.
The witness said that he considered
it desirable to obtain costs for rates
making, but that he did not think that
they could be ascertained exactly. He
said he had never undertaken to deter
mine what it cost to haul a ton or a
train over any given amount of road.
Ralph Blaisdell was recalled to the
stand to give detailed statements re
garding the O.-W. R. & N. and the
O. R. As N., and J. C. M. Dodds, to cor

FORGER PASSES CHECKS
I'our Firms Victimized by lale Sig
nal ure of Doctor.
Four business houses have been vic
timized with forged checks bearing the
purported signature of Ir. George Par
rish, city health officer, one having
been cashed two weeks ago and three
others showing up in the past three
days. The checks thus far have been
drawn on banks with which Dr. Farrisn
docs not do business.
Prominent display of Dr. Parrish's
signature on restaurant and eating
house permits makes It easy for some
crook to produce a facsimile, the doctor
explained yesterday, in giving warning
lest others be victimized.
The first of the forged checks was
fr $12 and was cashed by the Million
aires' club, Dr. Parrish reported. The
People's market accepted one for $9,
the Walkover (Shoe companay took an
other for $12 and the third of the re
cently passed checks calling for $10
was cashed by a restaurant the name
of which he did not recall. The $12
checks were both drawn on the United
nd the $9 check
on the Ladd & Tilton bank.
