The flagship Lamberton. It devel oped, was at the mercy of the sea for about 15 minutes, when the oil in the tar.ks ran away from the suction pumps, allowing air to enter the pipes and causing the fires to die down. Except for this, and the fact ' that everything loose on board the cestroyers was tossed about all night. no serious damage resulted. The destroyers came into the river shortly after 6 o'clock yesterday morning. A short stop was made at Astoria, departure being made from there at 10:10 A. M.

The Wisdom docked at Terminal No. 4 to await the arrival of the destroyer division, and the majority of the committee hurried to the Term inal cafeteria where sandwiches and coffee were obtained. The deep KOunding whistle of the flagship warned the committeemen of the ar rival of the division, and it was neces sary for Mayor Baker to obtain auto trucks in order to rush the party through the long freight sheds in time to climb aboard, the Wisdom before the first of the destroyers reached a point off the terminal. Committee Taken Aboard. The committee was taken aboard the Lamberton, and brought into the city on the destroyer.

Sailors Do Not Want to Meet Another Such Blow. Portland Visitor Hoping; They Will Not Be Assigned to Columbia River Base. EXPERIENCED sailors do not usu ally complain of storms at eea or discuss them to any extent, but the gale which the destroyer flotilla encountered outside the entrance of the Columbia river early yesterday morning has not only started the boys talking but also to hoping that they will not be assigned to operate from the Columbia river naval base when It is completed. Lieutenant-Commander Elder, In charge of the naval recruiting sta tion in Portland, was the busiest member of the entertainment com mittee yesterday, for he hopped from one destroyer to another greeting friends and ex-shipmates among the officers assigned to the various ships, Commander James T.

H. Ledbet ter. who served in the British navv During the ride up the river Admiral McKean and Mr. Ledbetter had a long "shop" talk, "The wildest and best ride I ever had in my lifetime." was how Ad miral McKean spoke of his dash into Portland from Mrs. Henderson's Co lumbia highway chalet in September, 1919.

Powers, president of the United Farmers of Ontario Co-operative company declared today at a hearing before the Canadian tariff commis sion.

Deputy District Attorney Takes Down Evidence Given in CiTil Suit Over Card Game.

Bernard had providently ob tained the services of a court reporter and when the taking of the testimony was concluded he had a complete record of the alleged transactions involving H. J. Seeck and Paul Brad shaw. The civil case was thrown out of court. Paul Bradshaw, who said he is an executive clerk in the offices of the Standard Oil 'company, an ex-service man and formerly with the army in telligence division, had filed a com-, plaint against Seeck, who said he is a farmer, in an effort to obtain money for checks received after a -gambling game. He said that on the night of October 30 he had given Seeck $50 on a check and that when this money was gone he again cashed another for $65. The third time Seeck asked for money, he said he declined to give it. Bradshaw declared payment on the checks was stopped. He asked $115 and costs. Seeck maintained the plaintiff got $25 and two checks out of the game. The men were playing "pitch" and "seven-up" with Ed Hornbeck, who did not appear at the trial. ..

LLOYD HOLDS IRISH ISSUE BALKED HERE Disintegration Between lied Nations Seen. AI- RADICALS ARE BLAMED Real Object Is Declared JCot to Be Concerned With Republic or Willi Ireland. PROVIDENCE. R. I.. Dec. 3. De marest, Lloyd, president of the Loyal CoaliWon, speaking on "the problems of Ireland," before tne economic ciuo tonight, said: The Irish movement nas oeen oci- nitely balked in the realm .of Amer ican politics. It is not definitely dls- osed of. It will continue to ojieraie one. form or another. 'ihe real hlect it not primarily concerned with the Irish republic or with Ire land It is a movement of disinte gration between allied nations and particularly the i,nglisn-speaKing DeoDles. Since the democratic convention, therefore, the ,effort has taken tne form of the MacSwiney resolutions and cablegrams, the Villard committee of 100 to issue Sinn rein publicity, flag riots and the like. Picketing Held Intended. "Washington dispatches on Decern- bed 1 dealing with the reorganiza tion of the Irish movement in Amer ica, tell of the avowed intention of he more radical group to resort to picketing, militant suffrage and rev olutionary methods. When De Valera was in Boston he counseled his followers that they would be more effective for Ire land with something that spoke more determinedly than words. That revolutionary activities of the Sinn Kein are perfectly logical, but in addition to being pro-German, the Sinn Fein movement is an ally of bolshevism. Both Sinn Feinism and bolshevism were pro-German and anti-British during te war. The pres ent Russian revolutionary govern ment is the only one which has ac corded an official recognition to the Sinn Fein republic. Soviet money has been traced to England, where it was sent in the interests of Irish and Eng lish revolutionists. Cuba Compared to Ireland. "Bolshevists In England, here and everywhere are practically unani mous in their support of Sinn Fein. In. America the socialist and farmer labor parties are the only ones which favor recognizing the Irish repub lic." . Drawing an analogy between Cuba and Ireland, Judge Daniel F. Cohalan of New York declared that "America may at any time call forth similar action to that taken by us in Cuba in the interests of humanity." Describing conditions in Ireland he said that the English government had broken down there and had been replaced by "uniformed thugs" and "organized bandits." " He outlined what he termed Eng land's aspirations to control the world's trade and stated Ireland was being blocked in her attempt to ex pand foreign commerce. Ireland, he asserted, was being held in subjugation while England devises means to meet the competition cause by the new mercantile marine of th United States. MRS. MacSWINEY IX PORT Widow of Late Lord Mayor of Cork to Land in America Today. NEW YORK, Dec. 3. Mrs. Muriel MacSwiney, widow of the lord mayo of Cork, who starved himself to death in a British prison, will- not set foo on American soil until tomorrow morning. The liner Celtic, bearing Mrs. Mac Swiney, arrived at quarantine shortly before 5 o'clock today. The shin arrived ' too late to be passed tonight. Arrangements ha been made to bring Mrs. MacSwine to Manhattan tonight by tug for th reception planned for her here by Sinn Fein sympathizers. Two hundred members of a worn en's reception committee appointed to greet Mrs. MacSwiney and headed by Mrs. Oswald Garrison Villard, board the police boat Patrol late this after noon and went down the bay to quar antine, where the Celtic was lying. In the party also were Harry Boland secretary to Eamonn de Valera, and Grover A. Whalen. commissioner of plant and structures. Mrs. MacSwiney appeared at the ship's rail waving the flag of the "Irish republic" and was greeted with cheers and the singing of Irish songs. Most of those aboard had the tri-color of the "Irish republic" and waved it as they sang.- The Patrol, after remaining near the Celtic for some time, returned, but will take the committee down the bay again tomorrow morning to par ticipate in the official greeting.

TILT MARKS HEARING (Continued From First Paga.) that the war corporation would "function" should congress recreate It, but he added: "I believe it would be against the public interest." He said he believed the country was In for a period of price recession and that "nothing more fateftul could hap pen than that this nation embark on unsound fiscal policy in banking in seeking relief for the growers." 11 on ton Sees A o Solution. Co-operation between producers, bankers and the public is necessary in the present situation, the commit tee was told by Governor Harding. Mr. Harding compared the situation to that obtaining when crops failed. and said he was quite sure that the merchants and banks would stand by the farmers if the latter showed a disposition to "do the right thing." Secretary Houston of the treasury department previously had stated that he saw no specific solution to the present problem, although treas ury officials had given the subject more thought in the past few months than any other subject. Governor Harding told the commit tee he was more apprehensive a year ago than he was today. "A year ago we were living in a fool's paradise." he said. Credita Held Kot Denied. Governor Harding asserted that there had been no denial of credits to agricultural interests, and that the farmers were concerned now bout their ability to sell their prod- cts under pay for credits extended to them. Mr. Harding said that if the.farm- rs sell part of their products, even if at a lower price than they would like to have, and use the proceeds to educe their indebtedness, it would ease the whole situation. The federal reserve board chairman said he had expected to see a stabili- ation in business after the holidays. with either an advance in prices of those articles which have fallen sud denly or a drop in the prices of arti cles which have remained high. Foreign Markets Urjced. In disposing of its surplus cotton. grain and manufactured goods, tne country must look to the foreign mar kets. Governor Harding said, adding that some way of opening trade with central Europe would help the sit uation. Two measures looking to the re lief of farmers have been drafted by Representative Dickinson, republican. of Iowa. One is a bill Imposing a tax of 10 per cent on the total value of all -contracts for the sale of grain when delivery is not made within 30 days, and the other Is a resolution authorizing the appointment of pecial committee to investigate grain. livestock and cotton pr'ces and to recommend legislation designed to remedy present conditions. OIL OFFICIALS INDICTED JURY VOTES TRUE BILLS IN BLACK DIAMOND PROBE. Company Declared to Transfer Holdings and Then Market Worthless Stock. CHICAGO, Dec. 3. The Cook coun ty grand jury today v-ted true bills against nine men in connection with its investigation into the Black Dia mond Oil company, and the bills will be returned to Judge MacDonald to- morow.

Chambers, who was said to have sold some of the company's stock, be dismissed. The true bills were voted after Chambers had furnished the jurors with a mass of information concern ing the activities of the company. Some time ago, in a statement given out by his attorneys. Chambers de clared that "he no longer would be the goat," and was willing to tell everything he knew. That was after a true bill was said to have been voted against him. Chambers was said by state officials today to have told the jury, today that many false representations were made to him concerning the company and that he had been led into It in the belief that everything was being conducted le gally. The company was organized in 1917 and shortly afterwards was subjected to federal investigation. Chambers said. He said that later it was an nounced that the company was to consolidate with certain producing companies of recognized standing. Then the Massachusetts Franklin Oil company was organized and the val uable assets of the Black Diamond company were transferred to it, ac cording to the testimony Chambers was said to have given the jury. Only "insiders," he said, . were given stock in the new company, while stock in the Black Diamond company, which Chambers testified was worth less, was placed on the market.
