CONFLICT RAGES
OH COTTON DUTY
Aldrich Is Object of Fierce As
sault From Dolliver, but
Has Votes.
WINS ON EVERY TEST MADE
Jo wan Insists Autocrat Remain to
Bo Roasted and Says He Has
Lost Confidence Tillman
Joins In Attack.
WASHINGTON, Juno 6. After devoting
the larger portion of the day to listening
to a discussion of the cotton cloth
schedule, the Senate entered upon a.
period of voting late in the afternoon
and rajiidly disposed of the entire sub
ject of changing from ad valorem to spe
cific duties for the purpose of prevent
ing under-valuation. On all votes taken
the finance committee was sustained by
a majority of 10 or 11. Three votes were
necessary to accomplish the result and
others would have been necessary but
for Hacon. who. seeing the futility of op
rosing the committee, suggested the
grouping of the votes after the first two
ballots had been taken. This was unan
imously agreed to, with the result that
o much was accomplished that a night
etion was not held.
Dolliver Delivers Philippic.
Iolliver occupied much of the time of
the session with a speech. In which he
made caustic criticism of the methods of.
the finance committee. He declared
that AUirich and Smoot, of that commit
tee, were at variance in their estimates
of the effect of the committee's action
on the cotton schedule, the former con
tending that there had been a change of
only 10 per cent, while Smoot had placed
the change at 30 per cent. Aldrich was,
however, prompt In his correction of this
statement, asserting that his use of the
10 per cent estimate applied to cotton Im
portations affected by the bill and not
to changes in duties.
"Ilold liana of Buccaneers."
The first vote of the day was on an
amendment consolidating the paragraph
relating to cheaper cloths, which was
won by the usual majority, the vote
standing 41 to SO. This result was so pro
nounced as to lead Tillman to make the
characteristic appeal to permit the tariff
bill to come to a vote, because, as he de
clared, there was no doubt as to what
the final result would be. Incidentally he
asserted that the members of the finance
committee were the "boldest band of
buccaneers that ever got together."
Cummins Renews Attack.
The latter part of the day's session was
devoted to a discussion of the committee's
change of the cotton rates from the ad
valorem to the specitia basis. In this con
nection Cummins attacked the commit
tee's change as in the interest of higher
duties, and when Aldrich explained that
a small percentage of the Importation was
affected by the substitution of - specific
for ad valorem duties, the Iowa Senator
responded that, however small the change,
it should be made along the right lines.
The votes on the change of system were
then taken, after which the Senate, ad
journed until Monday.
CANINE COMMITS SUICIDE
Stands Before Oncoming Train and
Lets It Run Over Him.
HOOD RIVER, Or., June 5. (Special.)
A clear case of dog suicide took place at
Hood River today, when a pet fox terrier
belonging to a resident here stood in the
middle of the tracx as tbe train from
Portland to Salt Lake pulled into the
station and, without moving, allowed it
self to be run over.
The tragedy In canine life took place
100 feet west of the station in plain sight
of a large number of people, several of
whom shouted at the animal to get out of
tho way. One of the spectators ran
toward the dog. thinking to pick it up
before the train could reach it, but was
too late. After the train passed it was
found that the head of the supposedly
despondent canine had been cut off. No
reason is known for its self-destruction,
as its owner says it ate a good breakfast
this morning and was unusually frisky.

BRITAIN IN FEAR?
Lord Rosebery Tells Press Na
vies Are Too Powerful.
IS UNEASY OVER OUTCOME
Gathering of Colonial and British
Journalists Hears of England's
Feeling at European. Plans
In Naval Matters.
LONDON, June 5. The most repre
sentative gathering of British newspaper
men ever held took place tonight at the
Garden C1tih. w h n 1 r. vi ....... i i.
. " .! " lllll 1 Li3 Ul LIIQ
United Kingdom gave a banquet in honor
of the 57 colonial delegates to the Imperial
Press congress, which will open at the
Foreign Office on Monday. Every sec
tion of the British Isles sent a delegate.
The colonial visitors will make a strong
plea for the reduction of cable rates,
and the laying of a government cable
across the Atlantic, as suggested by Min
ister Lemieux, Postmaster-General of
Canada; thus linking the United King
dom, Canada, Australia and New Zea
land by an "all-red line." A movement
will toe started for the establishment of
an imperial press association, and the in
terchange of news between the colo
nies and England.
Lord Burnham presided at tonight's
banquet. Lord Rosebery delivered the
speech or welcome. Referring to a forth
coming visit of the delegates to the fleet
at Spithead, where a naVal review will
take place", he characterized' the present
situation in Europe as ominous.
There was an absence of questions
which ordinarily might be expected to
lead to war, he said, yet the threatening
and overpowering preparations for war
were unprecedented in history. He was
confident of the power of England to meet
any reasonable conjunction of powers,
but when he saw this bursting out of
navies he was uneasy about the outcome.
Lord Rosebery asked the outcome,
carry the message that responsibility
rested on every man In the Empire .and
to tell the colonists of the pressure on
this little island.

xhibition Extraordinary
of Pianola Pianos
Six solid carloads of Genuine
Pianola Pianos, all of them the
latest styles, were shipped to Eilers
Piano House through an awkward
misunderstanding on the part of
our buyer and the manufacturers.
Rather than to return the bigger portion of these instruments to the fac
tories at additional cost for freight charges, insurance, etc., we have decided
to accept them. All of these instruments will be displayed at Eilers Piano
House during the coming week.
Never heretofore, not even in New York, has it been possible to show
such a tremendous number of latest Pianola Pianos of each of the various
styles and in the various superb and costly woods and finishes used only by
the world-renowned makers of this magnificent art product.
The second floor of our building will be devoted this week to the display
and sale of these truly wonderful instruments.
Never again will Portland witness a showing of so extensive and superb
a variety of styles and designs.
If you ever expect to own a Pianola Piano, an instrument by means of
which every member of the family can produce the best of piano music, an
instrument which will prove the greatest source of entertainment and educa
tion in any home or club or lodge, or other social organization, now is the
time to see about it at Eilers Piano House, Retail Department, "the always
busy corner" at Park (Eighth) and Washington streets.
