the felted States (Article 1. Sec. 6
guarantees to Members of fonirress
that "for any speech or debate In
either houoe. they snail not be ques

-should happen, however, that Sena
tor Tillman has jiven utterance to
charges against Dorr at any place
outside of ConaTess In the news

could be brought-
Bryan R. Dorr, on whom the spot
light of National publicity has been
thrown aa a result of the war between
President Roosevelt and Senator Till
man, announce his Intention of bring
ing? ult against the South Carolina
Senator for 100,000 for malicious libel.
Mr. Dorr Is president of the St. Paul
& Pacific Timber Syndicate against
whom Senator Tillman thundered on the
floor of the United State Senate. The
syndicate In Its literature had adver
tised that Senator Tillman had applied
for nine quarter sections of land in the
Coos Bay Wagon Road grant through
the firm of Reeder Watklns, Maish
fleld attorneys. Senator Tillman's name
was used with the Idea of attracting
other applicants. The circular reached
Senator Tillman's notice and In a
speech in the Senate he denounced Mr.
Dorr, declaring that the facts In Dorr's
circular were false, saying that he had
no connecCon with the land deal. He
also demanded that the postal depart
ment Issue a fraud order against Dorr
and the St. Paul & Pacific Tlmjer Syn
dicate. This was done pending an in
vestigation which was made by the
postal m?tectors.,The latter exonerated
Dorr and procured photographic copies
of Senator Tillman's correspondence
with the firm of Reeder At Watklns rel
ative to the Cooa Bay land. These doc
uments found their way to the Postal
Iepartment.at Washington, D. C, the
fraud order was withdrawn, and re
cently were given to the public in
President Koosevelt'e message to Con
gress. The newspapers have recently
carried many columns pertaining to the
clash between the President and Sena

original attack upon Dorr. .
Since the President's message was
Issued The Oregonlan has endeavored

WASHINGTON. Jan. 16. (Special.)
There was merriment at the Capitol today
when it became known tVat the appro
priation committee of th.3 House might
"Investigate" William Dulany. the Presi
dent's negro barber, who last March was
given a position In the Navy Auditor's of
fice at tl0 a year, but continued to serve
as the President's tonsorial artist.
The President having been a stickler
for technicalities, several members of the
House now see a chance to "get even" by
asking why the Navy Auditor's office
should pay for the President's daily
shave. It i? reported also that Mrs.
Roosevelt's private messenger. Jackson.
Is drawing his S0O pay from the Bureau
of Printing and Engraving. Tills is
termod another Irregularity. Yesterday
a member of Congress called up the
Treasury Department and Inquired about
Jackson. He was told Jackson was as
signed to the Bureau of Engraving and
PrintVi;. but Is supposed to be still at
the White House.
Barber Dulany, who is a native of Alexandria.-
Vs., has for years shaved the
TreslJent every afternoon b-fore lunch
eon, and often when the Chief Executive
was talking to Congressmen or close per
sonal friends. Members of Congress have
also benefited by Dulany'a skill. It Is
understood free shaves have always been
awaiting Senators and Representatives at
the White House. ,

forms Daring Deed of Loyalty.
ASTORIA, Or.. Jan. 18. (Special.)
A thrilling Incident of the wreck of
the French bark Alic,e came to light
today when It was learned that the
mess-boy of the Alice left the lifeboats
of the stranded vessel Just as the crew
were putting off, and went down Into
the cabin to get the vessel's flag. The
crew did not wait for him. and the boy
remained on the wreck with the- waves
drenching him to the skin for some
time.
Later, seeing that he would get no
help from his shipmates who had
reached the shore, tie tied the flag
about his waist. Jumped into the polling
seas, and swam through the breakers
to the beach, where members of the
crew pulled him to safety.

Simple Life on Farm Appeals to
II I in More Than Fine
Mansion at Topeka.
TOPEKA. Kan., .Jan. 16. (Special.)
Governor Stubbs and his family took pos
session of the Executive mansion last
Monday, but their residence there will
be only temporary and spasmodical. The
Stubba family balk at the idea of living
In a mansion and entertaining political
friends. The principal reason is that they
do not like that kind of a life, and that
no house can take the place of Stubbs
home on Windmill Hill at Lawrence. The
Stubbs are strict Quakers, and that or
ganization has a large membership at
Lawrence.
The Stubbs boys are In open rebellion
against the Idea of living in Topeka. They
have their own pigs and other animals,
besides numerous pets. They have their
dogs, which are their companions In their
many hunts, and these they cannot Install
In the Executive mansion. The Gov
ernor told his boys one day after elec
tion that It would not do to bring to the
fashionable "Governor's square" a pack
of fowling, barking dogs, that neighbors
were making complaint, and that it would
bo a "scandal" to the society of that
community.

CRIMINAL LIBEL CHARGED
Grand Juries in Washington and
New York to Question Men Who
Wrote Charges, but Attack
Aims at Publishers.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 16. Six Washing
ton correspondents of out-of-town 'papers
and a local news bureau were today sub
penaed to appear next week before the
Federal grand Jury and testify, presum
ably in ' connection with statements ap
pearing in their publications bearing on
the Panama Canal purchase.
So far as it has been possible to ascer
tain, these were the only ones cited: Otto
Carmichael, Charles S. Ambert and E.
Jesse Conway, of the New York World;
James Homaday, Indianapolis News;
Jeremiah Matthews, New York Sun: Har
ris M. Crist, Brooklyn Eagle; and William
Smith, a newsboy of Washington, en
gaged in selling New York papers.
. Crist Summoned to New York.
With the exception of Mr. Crist, who Is
commanded to go to New York and pre
sent himself today before the Federal
grand Jury, the parties are directed to
appear before the Federal grand Jury
of the District of Columbia next Tuesday.
The World men also were directed to
bring with them files of the paper for
September, October, November and De
cember, 1908, "In the case of the United
States versus the Press Publishing Com
pany," publishers of the New York
World. . . '
No Doubt It's Libel Suit.
.There Is no doubt that the suhpenas
have all to do with a suit for libel which
it" Is believed has been brought by the
Government, in New York, against the
World.
The publishers of the New York Sun
and the Indianapolis News, Mr. Lafflin
and Delavan. Smith, were denounced by
the President In a letter dated December
t last, to William Dudley Foulke. In
his special message to Congress of De
cember 15, regarding the charge of cor
ruption, the President announced that the
Attorney-General had under his consid
eration the form In which proceedings
for libel against Joseph Pulitzer, pub
lisher of the New York World, should be
brought.
Nowhere In the Government annals has
such an action been taken as the Govern
ment suing for criminal libel. The Presi
dent In his message was most emphatic
in saying that it should not be left to a
private citizen to enter the suit, and was
particular to state that he did not believe
"we should concern ourselves with the
particular Individuals who wrote the lying
and libelous editorials, articles from cor
respondents or articles in the news col
umns. The real offender is Joseph Pulit
zer, editor and proprietor of the World."
It, therefore. Is inferred that the corres
pondents were summoned as witnesses
and not with the ultimate idea of making
them co-defendants. ...
Precautions Against Leak.
All efforts to get any information re-'
garding the statute under which the suit
has been brought failed. That every ef
fort was made to prevent a "leak" in
New York before the subpenas were
served is evidenced by the fact that Mr.
Crist'a subpena was directed' to "John"
Crist, the Indorsement later being writ
ten upon It that "John" was a fictitious
name. The fact that Mr. Crist has been
ordered to appear In New York is re
garded as evidence that, if any purpose

With Revolver at Temple He Asks
Her Hand She Consents', but
Causes Arrest.
SAN FRANCISdO, Jan. 16. (Special.)
An extraordinary romance of violence, In
volving a marriage at the revolver's muz
zle was disclosed this morning .when
pretty 17-year-old Mary Jackson appeared
before Police Judge Shortall and secured
a warrant for the arrest of her husband,
James Jackson, who runs a tailoring es
tablishment In the St. Francis Hotel, on
the charge of threats against her life.
According to the girl-wife's story, she
came here last. December from her home
In Cleveland. She met Jackson at a five
cent theater. On the night of January 2.
she declares, Jackson appeared at her
room and asked her to marry him.
"Why should I marry you?" she ques
tioned. "This is why," he answered, drawing a
revolver and placing It against her
temple. "Will you marry me now?"
Again she refused, but at the third com
mand, given in a threatening tone, she
consented.
Two day's later, still displaying his re
volver, the tempestuous lover escorted his
unwilling fiancee to a Justice of the
Peace, where the ceremony was per
formed. It was several days before the
bride could elude the watchfulness of her
husband, but she finally managed to slip
away from him and at once hurried be
fore the Police Magistrate to secure the
warrant for his arrest.

PBK IN, Jan. 16. Prince ChinR. presi
dent of the Board of Foreign Affairs, ha
assured the American and British Minis
ters that the dismissal of Yuan Shi Kal
means no change in Chinese policy, but
bltterneFS has arisen between the British)
and Japanese representatives here on ac
count of Japan's refusal to Join Great i
Britain In her representations to Princo

acts In bad faith, while the Japanese lega
tion explains that, it agreed to concur lrt
the opinion of the majority and that
majority of the ministers favored the)
taking of no action in this direction.
No Change of Policy. -
William M. Rookhill and Sir John
Jordan, respectively the ministers to
China from the United States and Great
Britain, today expressed themselves aa
pleased with the reception accorded them
yesterday by Prince Chlng. They say the
Prince received them in the spirit in
which they came, as representatives of
two friendly powers. Ho listened to
Messrs. Rockhill and Jordan respectfully,
who Inquired whether the dismissal of
Yuan Shi Kal meant a change In tho
policy of China.
Prince Ching authoritatively assured
his callers that this was not so. This as
surance, it is understood, puts an end
to the bad impression that followed the

The mission under Tang Shno Yl. thef
special Chinese Commissioner now In the
United States, will ho permitted to con
tinue on Its tour of the world, but a re
stricted schedule will be adopted. This
chunge Is due to the intervention of
Prince Ching, who persuaded the Regent
to modify his determination to recall. tha
mission. The Prince at first desired that
Tang Shao Yi's mission be turned over
to the Chinese ministers in Europe, but
It Is said Shao Yl will now pass a fort
