(Continued From First Page.) TENSION REPORTED GREATER Improved Johnson Prospects Con ceded by Some Rivals. CHICAGO, June . By the Aseo- thus greatly frightened those adroit and timid senatorial politicians who have set out to control the convention and who had deftly arranged to have something said about the league which would offend nobody, if it did not please anybody. But Johnson will not have It that way, nor do those many delegates who believe in the league and want It rati fied with reservations and who are also opposed to Johnson want it" that way. Thus Johnson has skillfully placed himself in harmony with those elements which resent the scheme of the. senatorial cabal to control. J Johnson Held In Good I-'aitfc. On superficial observation it may seem that Johnson should be content j, .with any declaration which is not 'an outright repudiation of his no .' league attitude, for no one now as ', sumes that it is a no-league conven- - tion. It will not be, unless Johnson, ;' by some masterly political maneuver, makes it so. We may give Johnson ' .credit for good faith and the courage of his convictions in his demand for '.an honest platform without dismiss ing the likely guess that he sees in straight-out opposition .to the league '.his one best chance to win. For in I that event his nomination would be a .logical consequence. : The senate majority would thus, '"iof course, find itself in eclipse, and - the senate bosses who have devised . '. the. grand project of having the con vention indorse all the republican - senators, whether for or against the J league, will have made all their fine j plana for nothing. - Strnteajle Oponlnn Provided. ' The underlying resentment of many 1 delegates against senatorial med- dling gives Johnson a strategic open- ins which he has not been slow to "a week ago it looked as if Lowden i .'was in better tactical position than - any other. 2 . Wood and Johnson seemed to be going direct to a head-on collision i .and, after the wreck should have ' " been cleared away, there would be provided an open track for the next ; ! available candidate. Why not Low den. who had discreetly steered his ! I course to avoid needless animosities ' from the followers of his competitors I I But the developments of the sena j 'torial inquiry into campaign expend! ,' itures have been hurtful to Lowden. The case of those commercial dele- ' gates from Missouri has an ugly look. No one accuses Lowden of any effort ! to buy delegates, but evidently Low- : den money did not get beyond th pockets of at least two thrifty St .' Louis delegates. They thought they ; were being bought ahd were sup posedly willing- Liowdcn Held Indifferent. Nothing worse i3 said about Low ' , den himself in the transaction than ' that there was a certain intlif ference ; I as to what should become of th ' " money. The governor has sought to ' "extricate himself from an awkward situation by denouncing the misu of his funds and demanding that the ' tu'n rfplnratftq tin nnt Htfihrinnr him hv ' . , '. their support. Yet it is generally felt ; ; that his strength has been seriously i imoalred by the incident. ; ; It is hard for a candidate to escape the taint of tainted money, though '. , certainly the taint in this instance was imparted to it after it left his '. hands. It is not so clear to what ' ' extent the disclosure as to the large . Wood fund has injured the general, 1 ' though unquestionably he, too, has suffered much thereby. The sole ac cusation against him is that money . ; was lavishly, not wrongfully, used. . A presidential candidate must have : money, and a good deal of it. But '- how much? The common opinion is that Wood had too much. The opin ion is deliberately fostered by candi dates who themselves had a lot of money expended by others for them, but not so much as Wood. Johnson Qnartera Kxpenstre, . The Johnson headquarters at Cht- " cago. for example, are the most ex pensive and elaborate of any of the candidates. Johnson is not paying for them from his own pocket. Thosa nine little millionaire votera who went on his delegate ticket at home have doubtless shown their faith by tbeir works. This is the first convention In a generation where it was not possible. live aays oeiore toe event, to see with moderate vividness the figure or the probable winner in the political horoscope. Not since 1S!6 has there been a measure of doubt beginning to approach the present situation In that fateful year the seers mostly aaw McKinley. Now they discern only a composite picture of many candi dates. It may be any one of them; it may be none of tbem. I,et any one bo suggested, and a multitude or rea sons will at once appear why he cannot make it. Wood Has Most Delegated. Wood has more delegates in structed and uninstruoted than any other; yet he is much short of a majority. It remains true today as heretofore that he has resources o"f delegates, in almost every state. : either as first or second choice, but there Is no overpowering enthusiasm for him such as there would have been for Roosevelt in the same cir cumstances, and might be for John son, if the men who have to vote for him were in deadly earnest about him. Yet no outstanding figure looms in the background to whom the Wood, Johnson, Lowden or'othcr delegates will be surely attracted when either or all of them fail, if they do fail. Here and there someone suggests Hughes, or Taft, but about all they will get is honorable mention. Taft In Ont of Tone. Taft is out -of tune with the sen atorial machine, which is the old guard in a new dress, and not in favor with the senatorial insurgents, such as Johnson and Borah. The sun- position is that Hughes would be a distasteful dose for Johnson and the delegates just now have the most tender respect for the Johnson sensi bilities and are anxiously concerning . themselves about ways and means to persuade him not to resume his high wayman political tactics. There is Lodge, , to be sure, but Lodge is a high-caste Intellectual Brahmin, with no facility for popu larity. - There Is Knox, who is said to re pose serenely In Penrose's sleeve, ready to be conjured Into view at the psychological moment, but with, all . the newspaper taiK ana corridor gos -Sip there. Is Penrose as crude as all that? The best political strategy is usually the obvious and not the devious way of getting any result, the bugaboo makers to the contrary notwith standing. No Candidate Held Certain. If Pennsylvania is wise. It will give the convention Sproul and not Knox. Summarized, all that is certain now about the candidate is that nothing is certain; and all that is certain about he convention is that it promises to be dramatic and memorable. Lefis suppose that Henry J. Allen of Kansas rises to great heights of oratory in his speech for W ood. It is conceivable that 1880, when Garfield was nominated after his great eulogy of Sherman, and 1896. when Bryan introduced his cross of gold and crown of thorns to the notice of a startled and hysterical democ racy, may be repeated. "HI BABA" GETS SETBAGK film: idea xot excocuaged BY SHRIXE COMMITTEE. ciated Press.) Presidential booms of General Wood, Senator Johnson and Governor Lowden today again were in the spotlight of convention city, and shadows of potential dark horses were reported with growing frequency. Presidential row also got another tenant in the arrival today of Sena tor Poindexter of Washington. In the dark-horse discussions names of Governors Coolidge of Mas sachusetts, Allen of Kansas and Sproul of Pennsylvania figured prominently. AH discussions seemed to range about the senate committee's investigation of campaign expenditures. Improved prospects of the Johnson candidacy were claimed and' were often conceded in some opposition quarters. In the latter it was fre quently said that the Johnson move ment "appeared to be blowing" and that, although behind in instructed delegates, the senator appeared to be formidable. Foes of the Californian, however, were equally confident that lie would not capture the convention by storm. In the discussions of selection, as against election, of some candidate not now prominent in the race, the possibility of coalition between lead ing candidates was considered, despite present cleavages. Many veteran ob servers said the tension between the leaders was on the increase, with the contest decisions as a factor. Platform affairs generally came in for increased attention today with arrival or prominent persons interest ed in its formation. Among these were Senator Watson of Indiana, mentioned for chairman of the reso lutions committee; Ogden L. Mills Jr. of New York, chairman of the execu tive committee on platform and poli cies, and who was put forth today for the resolutions committee leadership, and W. Murray Crane, Massachusetts, national committeeman, and promi nent members of the "old guard." Another arrival, but of democratic persuasion, was William J. Bryan. He said he was "only a reporter" at the republican show and did not plan to participate in republican affairs even on the question of prohibition. Knights of Kibosh Strike Snas in Efforts to Add to Gayety of Convention Week. "Ali Baba. and the Moonshiners" will not be one of the . attractions of Shrine week in Portland. At least it will not if the general committee has anything to say about it- This was made clear last night after 40 or 60 members of tbe Knights of Kibosh, an organization composed of Shriners, had put in a busy afternoon at the Beaumont gravel pits, where the first scenes of the thriller were filmed. The Knights of Kibosh decided to add to the gaiety of Shrine week by the production at that time of "All Baba and the Moonshiners," a bur lesque on the activities of a gang of illicit distillers and bootleggers. The scenario was prepared and a group of well-known citizens enrolled as act ors. Yesterday the filming began in earnest. But the general committee of the Shrine, which had not been consulted. held a special meeting in the after noon and declined to give the project its approval. The Idea of the Shrine sponsoring a bootleg comedy, even though it were put on in jest, did not appeal to the committeemen. So they voted to request that the filming be stopped and . further announced that they would not sanction its produc tion. The city has granted this au thority over concessions during the convention. Mayor Baker had been cast as chief bootlegger in the comedy, but did not participate. Instead he met with the committee that voted to put the skids under Ali Baba. The principal role In the film was taken by George O. Brandenberg. Mrs. Baba is Charles Ringler, who is to be the only "woman" in the cast. Others taking part are Gus Moser, K. K. Kubli, Phil Metschan, Harvey Wells Harry Allen, Barge Leonard, Ray Spalding and Virgil Cooper. Brod erick 0"F"arreU is the director and L. S. McNutt is camera man. Frank Coffinberrjr and A. L. Haley wrote tbe scenario. Several police and fire of ficials are scheduled to participate, in cluding Chief of Police Jenkins. Al though not officially sanctioned. It was announced that all money raised was to go to the Shrine entertain ment fund. "The general committee has made its decision and we expect that the film will be withdrawn," said W. J. Hofmann, chairman, last night. "We win oojoct to its oeing snown snnne week." "We expect to go right ahead and complete the picture," said Mr. Haley. "I th'nk any objections will be with drawn when the committee under stands just what the picture is." tive's request for a deficiency appro priation. The expense of conducting the audit was charged to the special agent fund, according to Governor Olcott, and depleted the $10,000 appropriation authorized by the emergency Jjoard at its meeting on November 2o, 1919, and later approved by the legislature. The governor' also reported that he had expended approximately $700 in making- investigations of I. W. W. activities and approximately $5750 in connection with the enforcement oil the prohibition statutes. Tbe gov ernor informed the emergency board that he did not anticipate any great expenditures in the future, as much of the prohibition law enforcement work would come within the scope of the federal officials.

IN Miss Louise Bender, 17. of 2S6 Clay street, who was clubbed over the head by an assailant as she lay in her bed Wednesday night, was reported to show some improvement at the St. Vincent's hospital yesterday, and hos pital attendants expressed the be lief that she would recover. She was still, however, declared to be in a critical, condition. Alvin Benoit, grain handler, of 288 Clay street, who is under arrest and has confessed to the assault upon the girl and her father, will have a hear ing in the municipal court next Tues day on the charge of assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to kill. The hearing was set over yes terday in order that the authorities might determine whether or. not the girl will recover from her injuries. In case she should die, a charge of murder will be substituted, It was an nounced. Benoit again was examined by Dep uty District Attorney Bernard yes terday and the arrested nan reiterat ed his previous confession of the as sault. Tbe man still fails to g-ive any ex planatlon of his reasons for the as sault upon the girL The authorities are inclined to disbelieve his declara. tions that he was intoxicated at tbe time.

Besides there is said to be a huge pile of boards beneath the window where he gained entrance to the room to as sault the glrL In the opinion of Pep uty District Attorney Bernard it would be impossible for a drunken man to gain entrance to the room as stealthily as it was apparent Benoit did. The boards were piled in such a way, according to Mr. Bernard, that I it would be difficult for an intoxicat 1 ed man to make his way without fall ing. After he asserted he had drunk the liquor, Benoit told of carrying a pitcher full of water up a narrow stairway to his room. The pitcher of water was found as he had said. It is believed that It would have been an impossible feat for him if he was as intoxicated as he would lead the authorities to believe. 13 Young Men and One Woman Obtain Right to Engage in Practice of Medicine. Thirteen young men and one young woman, as part of the graduation exercises of the 1920 class of the medical department of the University of Oregon, were given the right to place the mystic prefix "Dr." to their names at Shattuck school last night. Immediately thereafter the one time students were hailed as "col leagues" by Dr. R. B. Dillehunt. dean of the medical schooL Oie Japanese was among the graduates, six of whom had previously earned arts or science degrees. All 14 have ac quired the degree of "M. X." -The graduates are: C. Elmer Carl son, A. B., Gaven C DyotL Herbert H. Foskett. Wilmot C Foster, A. B., John H. GosnelL Irene M. Hunt, A. B., Harry S. Irvine. A. B., A. F. Walter Ivresse, James T. Pappas. Sancho P. Santos y Araneta, Raymond R. Staub, Earl J. Schuster, B- S., Ph. C, Benja min M. Tanaka, Glenn M. Yount, Ph. C. The proceedings came near an in definite postponement when Dr. Dille hunt found at the crucial moment that he had forgotten tbe necessary sheepskins, but in a hurried dash he recovered them in time. In addition to President Campbell of the University of Oregon, who con ferred the degrees, and the dean, most of the faculty of the medical school was present. Professor A- W. Hewlett of Stan ford university medical school, ad dressed the graduates. In addition to the tuition fees that each student had expended. President Campbell re minded them that the state had in vested in each $S00 or $400 for each year of training. He urged that they co-operate in community betterment. Dean Dillehunt presented the can didates for degrees and felicitated them and the school. President Camp bell and the dean both alluded to the growing improvement in scholarship and knowledge at the institution.

At least that is the prediction of George H. Bean. M. D., just at present regis tered in the "bean city," also known as Boston. "Boston Bean" fails to state whether he obtained his fore knowledge of the dire events he pre dicts will happen June 19 from the ouija board. Presumably not, as his thoughtful warning to residents in this uninformed section of the uni verse, through a letter to Mayor Baker, indicates that he gleaned his wisdom from study of the stars. The message from Boston reads: "Saturday evening, June 19. 1920. six members of the solar system will be on on sld of the world, while Uranus will be on the other side. At that time Isaiah 2iii:13 will be ful filled. The nations which partici pated in the world war. including Holland, will be submerged by the Atlantic ocean. "GEOUCB H. BEAN'. M. T." Interested persons may have some little trouble in figuring out a flood from the text of Isaiah xiii:13. which reads: "therefore I will shake the heavens and the earth shall remove out ot her place, in the wrath of the Tord of hosts, and in the day of his rierce anger. There was some uneasiness in fed eral circles last night because of the failure of Joseph Beeman, federal prohibition agent, to return from Prineville, where he went Thursday morning in company with A. L. Long, former policeman, to unearth a quan tity of liquor which Long had cached in the vicinity of frineville late last summer. The federal agent and policeman were scheduled to leae Portland early Thursday morning and had planned to return yesterday morning They had not arrived late last night. and no word of the men had been re ceived at their homes or at the fed eral offices. Plans had been made by Long to rent an automobile at the City garage and an" ample supply of gasoline had been procured for the trip. Officials at the garage last night said they had declined at the last moment to rent the machine to Long because of the long drive into eastern Oregon. Whether the federal agent and Long then rented another machine or went by train is not known. Long told employes at the garage they probably would take a, train. If Bee man fails to return by tonight search ing parties will be sent out. That the undertaking on which Beeman left has its dangers was ad mltted by federal officiaas. Locating a cache of liquor valued at more than 55000 might easily lead persons to follow and attempt to set possession of the liquor. Strong pleas were' made last night at the weekly conference of Rose Fes tival directors for a larger registra tion of decorated automobiles in the private entry class of tbe floral pageant. Both Winthrop Hammond and H. R. Blauvclt of the floral pa rade committee, laid emphasis upon this participation as being of utmost importance. A cash prize of $600 is offered for the best decorated private car dupli cating the $500 prize for the winning entry from outsioe towns and cities. At room 50tf Henry building, telephone Broadway 3832. information will be supplied. The board of festival directors re turned a unanimous vote of thanks to George W. Dean, manager of the Howard Auto company branch, for his liberality in contributing toward the decoration of the grand marshal's car in the floral parade. That James Barris, arrested eev eral days ago with two other men as suspects of the Grossman Jewelry store robbery, may be the James Bar ris who was wanted in Boise, Idaho, in 1917 on charges of having cleaned up about $5000 there on a bunco game is considered likely by inspectors. Inspector Leonard yesterday dis covered among a file of old telegram one from Boise under date of April 1917, asking that the Portland au thorities arrest James Barris. A $-i0 reward was offered for the man's arrest at that time. Captain of Inspectors Circle for warded a picture to Boise last night of the Barris under arrest here ask- ng if he is the man wanted at that time and if he is still wanted. Barris was due to have a bearing in the municipal court today on a charge of vagrancy. The case prob ably will now be postponed until ad vices can be received irom tfoise.
