(Iff ti(i
SEATTLE, Wash.. May 9. (Spe
cial.) That Vera Stewart. 29 years
old, who was arrested Saturday night
following her attack on Mies Marian
Elizabeth Haynes with a knife In Pike
street, may be Stella Morriss of Port
land, is a possibility the police are
investigating today. The woman Is
evidently demented. She Insists she
is a resident of Los Angeles but fur
ther than this she will vouchsafe no
information concerning herself.
The belief of the police that she is
Stella Morris is based on the piecing
together of a letter torn into small
bits that was found in a basket in
the room where she was hiding fol
lowing her attack on Miss Hayes. The
envelope was addressed to Stella Mor
riss, Portland, and was sent from
Los Angeles. Little success has been
met with in putting the body of the
letter together. The names "Goldy
locks" and "Jack" are written in the
missive.
Injury la Slight.
The attack on Miss Haynes was
made without provocation of any
kind, the police say. Only a slight
injury was inflicted down the Bide of
the nose.
Miss Haynes was accompanied by
Miss Katherine Crawford. 632 Broad
way North, and other girl friends, who
had been shopping. Miss Crawford
first noticed the Stewart woman re
garding Miss Haynes with a fixed
look, she said.
"We had just left the coliseum,"
said Miss Haynes, "and were in front
of the Seaboard building when a wom
an grabbed me from behind and cut
across my face with a knife. I felt
the cut, and remember screaming,
"You crazy woman," and then I was
taken to the doctor's office. It nearly
went into my eye.
Woman Brlleved Identified.
"As we walked along the woman
followed us," Miss Crawford said. "I

was made with a ring."
Both Miss Haynes and Miss Craw
ford said they had never seen the
woman before and could assign no
motive to her attack. They agreed
with the opinion of Chief Warren that
of expediency, to apply moral and
Christian principles to the problems of
the world. It is trying to accomplish
social, political and international re
forms and is not daunted by any of
the difficulties it has to contend with.

That the woman is insane is the
belief of Captain Tennant of the de
tective bureau. He has been unable
to locate her lodgings. It is believed
that the woman has been in Seattle
only a few days. She was well
dressed and is evidently a woman of
some culture. inquiry at Los An

the . 'express purpose of obtaining
thunder against Senator Chamberlain.
As Mr; . Starkweather in his slogan
declares himself for the ratification of
the Versailles treaty and as Senator
Chamberlain voted for the Lodge
reservations. .Mr. Wilson's assertion
Lthat the party should only elect those
who favor the Versailles treaty, pure
and undefiled, makes the issue rather
clear cut. ' .
Those democrats back of the
Hamaker inquiry got what they want
ed and they intend to tell the demo
crats of Oregon that President Wilson
prefers the nomination of Mr. Stark
weather' to Mr. Chamberlain.
"And now," declared Mr. Hamaker
last, night, as he fondled the Wilson
telegram, "I'd like to know whether
these federal office holders who Bay
they are for Wilson will come out in
the open and state, in view of the
president's reply, whether they con
sistently can support Chamberlain."
Newton McCoy Is of the opinion that
the message of Mr. Hamaker; is along
the lines of what Mr. Wilson intends
saying to the San Francisco conven
tion and that, in a manner of speak
ing, the message to Mr. Hamaker is

himself into the race for a third term
as . the only logical party leader to
continue the fight for the unamended
treaty.
Treaty Vote Is Extnae,
Of course, it must not be under
stood that Senator Chamberlain's vote
on the peace treaty- i the real animus
of tonight's telegram to Mr. Ham
aker. The peace treaty vote is only
the convenient excuse for making
the attack. The story of the breach
between the president and the Ore
gon senator goes back to the early
part of 1918 when Senator Chamber
lain in New York, discussing the ad
ministration of this nations war
activities, said that the government
bad broken down and that executive
departments had ceased to function.
The president, as is well remem
bered, gave out a public statement
two days later in which he charac
terised Senator Chamberlain's re
marks as a wilful "distortion." Sen
ator Chamberlain replied In an lm
passioned speech in the senate in
which he cited specific cases of mal
of the world. As a basis for th
armistice. I was authorized by all the
great fighting nations to say to the
enemy that it was our object in pro
posing peace to establish a general
association of rations under specific
covenants for the purpose of afford
ing mutual guarantees of political in
dependence and territorial Integrity

the covenant of the league nf nations
is the deliberate embodiment of that
purpose in the treaty of peace.
The chief motives which led us to
enter the war will be defeated unless
that covenant is ratified and acted
upon with vigor. We cannot in honor
whittle it down or weaken.it as the
republican leaders of the senate have
proposed to do. If we are to exer
cise the kind of leadership to which
the founders of the republ'c looked
forward, and whiih they depended
upon their successors to estah isli. we
must do this thin? with courage end
unalterable determination.

"They expected the United States to
be always the leader in the defense
of liberty and ordered peace through
out tne woria, and we are unworthy
to can ourselves their successors un

entertained and proclaimed. The true
Americanism, the only true American
