THE SUNDAY OREGONIAX, PORTLAND, MAT 27, 1906. SMOKES THEM OUT Pucker Tells How Members Voted in Committee. DODGES CHAIR'S RULING Attitude on Publicity of Campaign Donations Comes to Light. Speech on Western Union Telegraph Profits. WASHINGTON. May 26. During the course of a llstles day's legislation on the diplomatic and consular bill In the House today. Champ Clark, of Missouri, stated that he had heard whisperings that the Chinese exclusion law was to be modified to affect all classes of Chinese, with the exception of coolie labor. He gave notice that. If there was any such intention on the part of the majority, he would fight such a change to the last ditch; that he hd been somewhat lnstrumentl in putting the Chinese exclusion law on the statute books, and that for one he would not agree to Its modification. Under general debate, the House having met at 11 o'clock for further consideration of the diplomatic bill, speeches were made by Rusker. of Missouri, on his publicity bill; Samuel Smith, of Michigan. In favor of a postal telegraph: Lamar, of Florida, on railroad rate legislation; Perkins, of New oVrk, on the benefits of civil' service reform: Murphy, of Missouri, on state hood, and Rhodes, of Missouri, on giving .the provisional militia of Missouri a pen sionable status. Rucker found occasion to speak on pub licity before and after election, and men tioned Gillespie (Tex.), Hardwick (Ga.) and other Democratic members of the committee as having voted for his bill in committee, while the Republican mem bers voted against it. The chair, now occupied by Curtis (Kan.), called Rucker to order for mentioning committee-room secrets. Rucker Ingeniously got the names Into the record by stating that. If the bill were In the House, the Republican mem bers of the committee, to be consistent, would have to vote against it. Rucker created Democratic applause by predicting a Democratic House. He said the brightest sun of the Republicans now in the White House is like a lightning bug alongside of "the man whom we shall elect, our peerless leader, William J. Bryan." 1'KOPOSES POSTAL TELEGRAPH Mould Keduce Rates and Extinguish Dcricit, Says Smith. WASHINGTON. May 26. The idea of a postal telegraph has a warm advocate In Samuel W. Smith, member of Congress from Michigan, who In a carefully pre pared speech today in the House Insisted that If tile Government would undertake such a system, the deficit In the Postal Department would be almost wiped out. "We should," he said, "have a first class postal telegraph in the I'nited States in connection with our splendid postal facilities, and the rates can be re duced at least one-half, leaving a suffi cient amount to dispose of the deficit and have money left to evtend the rural service to practically every home and pay the city and rural carriers a com pensation fitting their services and ex penses." Wherever the postal telegraph has been adopted, according to Smith, It has at once been followed by a reduction In price and by an Increase in the number and kinds of messages. Smith is authority for the statement that "the Western Union octopus in one year declared dividends which reached the astonishing figures of 414 per cent." REFORM CONSULAR SERVICE Root Appoints Board to Prepare the Rules Under New Law. WASHINGTON. May 26. Secretary Root today made public an order Intend ed to mark a great advance in the con sular service and to carry out the most Important feature of the plans for reor ganization which were not dealt with In the act recently passed by Congress. This order creates a board of five experienced consults which will meet in Washington Juna 4. The board la charged with the consid eration of six topics, the first being "Reg ulation and New Inspection Service." Congress provided for the r ppolntment of five Inspectors with a view to keeping the service at tho highest point of efficiency. The second topic is "The Relations Be tween Consulates and the Embassies or Legations." The board will undertake to say how far the diplomats shall go In in specting consulates. The third topic is "The Rules Which Should Govern Promotion and Appoint ment." Here the merit system is to have a test. Consuls are to be promoted In ac cordance with their service records and adaptability for certain work. The board is to consider whether It is good policy to retain a consul indefinitely at one post. The fourth topic is "The Scope and Character of Examinations for New Ap pointments." Mr. Root has already laid down certain general rules, such as a re quirement that the applicant shall have a knowledge of more than one language and be otherwise fitted for his work, but he desires to supplement these rules. Tho fifth topic is "The Tariff of Fees for Consular Service." Considerable changes in the fees formerly arbitrarily fixed by law are now possible under the discretion conferred upon the President by the reorganization act, and It will be possible, for example, to vary the charges for Invoices accordingto their length and complexity. The sixth and last topic is self-explanatory, being "Amendments of Existing Regulations Rendered Necessary or Expe dient by the New Statute." The board Is ordered to report to Wil bur J. Carr. chief of the Consular Bureau. Its detail is: Frank H. Mason. Consul Goneraf a tParis; Charles M. Dickinson, Consul-General at Constantinople: Rob ert S. Chilton. Jr.. Consul at Toronto; Ed ward H. Ozmun. Consul at Stuttgart, and George H. Murphy, Consular Agent at SL Catherines, Ont.

CIVIL WAR MAY RESULT People Will Resist Attempt to Dis solve Parliament. ST. PETERSBURG, May 27. (Special.) The gravest apprehension ' is felt throughout the country over the crisis in Parliament. The position of the Douma was well expressed by Deputies yesterday, when they declared they must stick at their posts and carry on the fight for the people until they are dis persed by armed guards. This is what the government is expected to do. The rumor gained circulation yesterday, and it was generally believed that the Czar wll tissue an .edict today dissolving the If the government attempts to do this. Douma. it is almost certain to result in open warfare on a greater scale than any of the armed revolts that have recently oc curred. The Douma is backed by the great majority of the people, who feel that upon It depend all their chances of gaining any degree of liberty. The dis solution of the Douma will be met by armed resistance In all probility, and this will mean bloodshed. No one realizes the dangers of the pres ent situation more perfectly than do -the Deputies. They are prepared for any emergency, and believe it is better that the great question of defining the powers of the Douma shall be settled once for all. If the Czar fails to heed the mean ing of the Douma's vote oflack of .con fidence in his Ministers, as he refused to receive the' representatives of the Douma who wished to present their ad dress to him In person, the Deputies will proceed with their legislation. Ignoring the Ministers. This Is certain to result in a clash of authority. There is little hope that the Czar will yield to the de mand for the appointment of a Ministry representing the majority. Reactionaries are sure to utilize the op portunity to attempt to persuade the Czar to dissolve the Parliament. If they succeed, trouble is certain to follow.

CHINA MUST PAY Secretary Root Insists on Hav ing Boxer Indemnity. OVERRULES HAY'S POLICY Latter Favored Remission of All In stallments After First, but Other Nations Would Not Agree to the Plan. WASHINGTON. May 2.-Secretary Root is taking ground the opposite of that accredited to Secretary Hay In the matter of exacting $24,000,000 from China as the price of her Boxer rebellion. The international agreement with China was that fe was to pay the United States $24,000,000 in 40 annual payments. It is known that after the first payment Sec retary Hay stood for letting up on China, and it is said that he made inquiries among other nationalities as to whether they were willing to forego the payments on account of the financial predicament in which it placed China and because of her generous agreement to the open door, which was Hay's policy. No nation, it appears, would agree to the taking of less than the pound of flesh. Secretary Root, however, is strongly of the opin ion, and is practiciu it. that China pay up in full and regularly. About one--eighth of the full amount has been paid In. Mr. Root, in his desire for Consular reform generally, is now advocating the appropriation of $1,000,000 of the Chinese indemnity for the purchase of lands and houses for the diplomatic and Consular officers in China.

In one place the Chinese themselves com plain that the Japanese have built a bridge across one of the principal streams so low that it cannot longer be used by the Chinese boats, with the result , that the traffic is diverted entirely to the Japanese-owned rail road. .
