'PARIS MEETING CITED
Mark Sullivan Declares Open Ses
sions Must Be Held or Fail
lire Is Certain.
BY MARK SULLIVAN.
. Copyright by the New York Evening
Post. Inc. PubliHhed by Arrangement.)
WASHINGTON. D. C, July 29.
(Special.) The preparation of what
, is known aa the "agenda" for the
-Washington conference on limitation
of armaments is now beginning.
Strictly speaking, the term "agenda"
applies to the subjects to be taken up,
. but there is one aspect of the manner
of carrying on the conference which
is fully as essential to success as any
one of the subjects to be discused or
all of them together. The aspect is
-the degree to which the sessions shall
be public.
Senator Borah, who feels and has a
right to feel a kind of fatherly guard
clanship over this conference, passed
the last six months advocating the
calling of It. Fos the immediate pres
ent he is now laying emphasis on the
1 demand that the sessions shall be
open, with the sunlight of public
opinion streaming through the wln
.' dowa. - .
4 Secrecy Is Oppoaed.
' It can be said that if the coming
'conference should be managed with
as much secrecy as the Paris peace
J conference was, then it is doomed in
. advance and might as well not be
- held at all. The Paris peace confer
' ence lasted for about six months.
. During that six months there were
about 12 hours of open sesssions. All
7 the rest was aa secret as anything
' could well be.
For this secrecy several reasons
were given. In fairness It should be
( said that some of them had merit. So
far as the American delegation was
concerned, its first impulse towards
, agreeeing to secrecy came when it
became apparent that if all the ses
, s-ions were public an interminable
amount of time would be wasted by
1 statesmen from large and small na
' tions who wished to make long
' speeches for consumption in their
home countries on each and every
subject that came up.
Some Merit Seen In Stand.
Another reason for secrecy was the
'. fear that certain conclusions of the
.conference, if made known at that
time and telegraphed baok to some
of the countries concerned, would
cause so much feeling as to lead to
the overturn of the existing govern-
merits. Undoubtedly this would have
, happened in some cases, and, consid-
ering the unstable condition of the
' world at that time, there was some
merit In this argument.
Essentially, however, this reason
- is based on the theory of protect
ing statesmen In office against their
home electorates by not permitting
those electorates to know what the.
. statesmen were doing. The world is
more stable now and that sort of
justification doe not exist in so
great a degree.
It can be taken for granted that
America, as the initiator and host
of the coming conference, will'advo
cate a greater degree of openness
' and publicity than France did in the
capacity of host for the peace con-
; ference. France did not want an
'. open conference.
Open Conference Opposed.
; The French government was lm-
'.placably opposed to an open con-
- ference, and the more important
, French newspapers, having relations
of intimacy to the French govern
" ment, did not want open sessions.
'. The fight for open sessions at the
Paris pvace conference was made al
, most wholly by the American jour-
nalista, and they had the thorough
; going opposition of all the more im-
portant French Journalists.
Of course, there is no such thing
as any conference being 100 per cent
open. There was a degree of com
' mon sense in Clemenceau's Impatient
; utterances that "you can't carry on
', negotiations In the open street."
Borah's Stand Praised.
Let the sessions be as open as
. they may, there will always be a
certain amount of arriving at private
understanding In the cloak rooms
and elsewhere. This Is unavoidable
and without harm. It happens in the
-American house of representatives
and the American senate, the ses-
sions of which are as open as any
: such bodies can be.
It will do no harm for Senator
Borah to keep his insistent demand
' for openness and It will help if the
- public backs him up as consistently
, as it back up his demand for the
- calling of such a conference.
The disposition towards an open
conference will always be stronger
; with America than with almost any
of the other nations concerned and
any expressions of public feeling in
. America which would strengthen the
position of our country in arguing
"' with the others for open sessions
. will be useful.
" DEPUTY SHERIFF IS SHOT
J. F. Cbatfield Is Wounded and
Alleged Assailant Is Held.
" BELLINGHAM. Wash.. July 28.
J. F. Chatfield, deputy sheriff, was
dying in a hospital here tonight and
J. Anderson, a Canadian, was held in
the county jail charged by the' police
with being his slayer as the result of
a revolver battle near the Canadian
'.border two miles east of Blaine,
Wash., this afternoon. Alfred F. L.
Tool, said to have been Anderson's
companion at the time of the shoot-
lng, was held as a witness.
Chatfield, accompanied by Richard
Drain, was scouting for liquor run
' ners when he came upon Anderson and
Tool, who claim to have been search
ing for a drug smuggler. When or
dered by Chatfield to throw up his
hands, Anderson opened fire with
revolver, according to the police,
shooting Chatfield through the ab
domen. Chatfield emptied his revol
ver at Anderson as he fell, but the
bullets flew wide. Anderson and Tool
then submitted to arrest by Drain.

umber of regular lodgers. It was
because she owned the property, it
was asserted by neighbors, and Shep-
rd was practically penniless, that
he looked upon his suit with eyes
f disdain.
Golts Maklns Inxpection.
Lieutenant of Inspectors Goltz was
inspecting the house and the prone
igures before the powder smoke had
cleared fro?h the hallway. He was
assisted by several inspectors and pa-
roimen, who answered the call with
very emergency vehicle obtainable.
An examination of the 38-caliber re
volver showed that three shots had
been fired.
The affair -was one of the most
pectacular in recent years, the
echoing shots bringing screaming
irens from all directions and col
lecting a crowd of more than a thou
sand curious spectators, many of
whom stood on the sidewalk thinking
that a fire was in progress. The lat
ter impression was given through the
coincidence that a Are alarm wai
turned in a minute or two after the
mergency call reached police head
quarters. The morbid crowd eddied
into the house and surrounded the
bodies before it could be dispersed bi
police.
Investigation Lasts Honrs.'
Following an investigation which
overed several hours, police formed
he opinion that Shepard had made
Mrs. Baira another proposal of mar
riage yesterday and she had refused
him. In brooding over his disap
pointment he was thought to have
planned to kill as he did, for James
O. Darnell, a lodger of Mrs. Baird's,
told Lieutenant Goltz that he saw
Shepard remove a newspaper wrap
ping from the revolver preparatory
firing it.
Deputy Sheriff Snodgrass, who was
standing across the street and heard
the shots, said that he had observed
the couple come outside onto the
porch and re-enter the . house. - He
said they did this several tiroes be
fore the shots rang out. It was sur
mised that Shepard wa9 using his
utmost ability to plead his suit be
fore he resorted to the revolver.
Mrs. Batrd Hit Twice.
Examination of the bodies by Coro
ner Smith showed that two bullets
entered Mrs. Baird's body. The first
struck her wrist, passed through it
and entered the Bhoulder. She was
holding the telephone receiver to her
ear. She half turned at the first
wound and the second bullet entered
the rear of the left shoulder, passing
through her body and lodging under
the .skir. of her chest. Shepard was
shot through the heart.
Mrs. Ethel Smith, 240 Fifth street,
told detectives that she was well ac
quainted with both parties. She said
that Shepard was wildly In love with
Mrs. Baird and was of a jealous dis
position. She asserted that he had
"beaten her up" several times and
that it was fear of another beating
which prompted Mrs. Baird to en
deavor to telephone the police.
Investigation by the coroner and
detectives failed to reveal the name
of Mrs. Baird's ex-husband or the ad
dress of Shepard. It was said that
the Shepards had separated and were
divorced about three years ago.
The coroner said last night that the
case was so clearly one of murder and
suicide that no Inquest would be
held.

attendance is expected. The commit
tee explains that it is not the purpose

TACOMA CONFERENCE HELD
Forest Conservation, and Lumber
Marketing; Discussed.
TACOMA, Wash., July 28 Lumber
problems of the Pacific coast were
discussed from two angles today at a
Joint conference of local lumbermen,
a visiting delegation of lumbermen
from many states of the union and
the national forest policy committee
of the United States Chamber of Com
merce. Forest conservation was the topic
at the morning session and marketing
of western lumber the subject of the
afternoon meeting, which included the
first annual convention of the west
coast forest products bureau.
That Pacifio coast loggers and
manufacturers are not wasting the
timber except In so far as economic
conditions force waste upon them, was
the defense which lumbermen pressed
home before the chamber of com
merce committee. The point was con
ceded by the committee which de
clared that the means of conserving
what Is left must be the point con
sidered. V
The viewpoint of the eastern re
tailer was described by Harry S.Gould
of Middletown, N. Y., who told of trou
bles encountered with undersized
western lumber and urged standard
ization of sizes so that eastern re
tailers might send out mixed deliv
eries with assurance that the pine and
fir would work together.-
Howard Jayne of Portland, who pre
sided at the afternoon meeting, said
the difficulty of northwest lumber
manufacturers was that the market
is Insufficient to absorb the cut of
lumber.
C. H. Hogue. manager of the forest
products bureau, made an extended
report on the requirements of the
eastern trade.
Lumbermen of Oregon and Wash
ington" are not wasting any more
timber than can be helped. Major
Everett Griggs of Tacoma declared.
"A great many of the eastern people
do not realize conditions on this
coast," he saM. "We can't shut down
or wo will los our crews. The as
sessor can tell you of our problems.
Districts insist on taxing our tim
ber. They Jauil-d the finest of schools
and force us to cut timber ahead of
time to save ourselves from loss. We
al have heavy overhead expenses and
mst keep going to meet them. 1
think perhaps that the increased rail
road rates did more to destroy tim
ber in the northwest than anything
else.
"When every act of the lumberman
is impugned I think it Is time that the
criticisms be answered. I hope you
will give proper publicity to the men
who have built up this country. It has
taken a lot of money to enter this
game and there have been big prob
lems to meet."
E. H. Polleya of Missoula, Mont.,
president of the Western Pine asso
ciation, also struck the taxation an
gle. "I don't believe that one of the
timber holders here today," he said,
"will say that his timber is an asset.
I If we could turn our timber back to
the firovernment and h. ssRiirea of a i
supply in years to come, we would be J
glad to do so."
Of the low-grade log, 50 per cent !
now goes into the w-oodpile or the
burner, said A. C. Dixon of Eugene,
Or., who spoke at length. He said !
freight rates make It impossible to i
get the waste now burned to the j
places where it could be used and
that the whole basis of rate-making ,
is against conservation. j
Carl M. Stevens, chief of the tim
ber section income tax bureau. Wash- I
ington, D. C. was one of those who
maintained that no conservation pro
gramme would be effective as long as
state and federal tax systems re
mained as they are.
R. H. Burnside and L. F. Keith were
other Portland men who addressed
the conference.
After an inspection of Washington
logging operations at the St. Paul and
Tacoma Lumber company's camp near
Kapowsin. Wash., the visiting lum
bermen left for Portland, Or, tonight.
FIREMEN'S CASE IS UPi
DEMOTED IilECTEVAXTS FAIL
TO GET REINSTATEMENT.
Civil Service Commission Reserves
Final Action on Matter
Until Tuesday.
Attempts to reinstate E. L. Bout-
right and A. L. Pullen, lieutenants In
the fire bureau who were demoted
last November at the expiration of
their probationary period by Commis
sioner Bigelow, proved unsuccessful
yesterday at the meeting of the civil
service board. John F. Logan, chair
man, declared that he doubted the j
authority of the board to reinstate
the men after it had approved their
demotion. Final action was reserved
until a meeting of the board mem
bers with Commissioner Bigelow and
City Attorney Grant is held Tuesday.
The two men were formerly as
signed to the fire marshal's office. '
They were given tests on their
duties last November by Fire Chief
Young, and were found to be un
ready to meet all the requirements.
Commissioner Bigelow demoted them
to hosemen, on recommendation of
Chief Young. Since that time they
have been given temporary appoint
ments as lieutenants. They, again
took the civil service examinations
for the rating on July 15, 1921. The
question was raised by the board yes
terday as to the reasons for wishing
their reinstatement.
"Sufi'cient influence has been I
brought to bear on Commissioner
Bigelow by the friends of the men
to induce him to have them rein
stated," said George C. Mason, mem
ber of the civil service board.
Mr. Logan stated that it was not a
question of the reasons for reinstate
ment, but of the 'actual power of the
commission to do it.
Commissioner Bigelow told the
board that he had no apologies to
make for the demotion of the men in
the first place, but they had since
proven their ability and desire to
perform their duties in an efficient
manner.
Commissioners .Veils and Mason
and Chairman Logan, the entire per
sonnel of the civil service board, at
tended.
HOTEL INTHM HMY DIE
CONDITION OF- A. W. CARR,
SHOT BY DETECTIVE, SERIOUS.
Man Ascends to Top of Building by
- Climbing Tree, and Is
Halted by Bullets.
Albert W. Carr. who was shot by
detective and dangerously wounded
on the roof of a small building ad
joining the Hoyt hotel early yester
day morning, was reported to be in a
serious condition at St. Vincent's hos
pital last night. The hospital officials
held doubts as to his recovery.
Carr was shot by John J. Snodgrass,
deputy sheriff and employe of the
Burns detective agency, who was em
ployed by the Hoyt hotel after a num
ber of thefts - had occurred in the
rooms there. Snodgrass and H. R.
Haines, another Burns operative, who
were lying on the roof of the building,
said Carr climbed up by means of a
email tree, leaving his shoes on the
ground and. hanging his coat on a
branch.
When he reached the roof on which
the' officers lay he Is said to have
started toward the windows of the
Hoyt hotel. He ran when the two
men commanded him to halt and
throw up his hands. It was then that
Snodgrass fired, the bullet entering
under the left shoulder blade and
lodging under the right.
The wounded man was taken to the
emergency hospital over night and
then removed to St. Vincent's hospi
tal. Examination showed that the
bullet had broken' two ribs, pene
trated the pleural sac and possibly
passed through the spinal cord. The
lower half of Carr's body Is paral
yzed. He gave his address as Napa
vlne. Wash., and his age as 25.
He is held at the hospital as a pris
oner, charged with carrying concealed
weapons.
