on Curtis' Demand Stubbs
Aching for Fight.
TOPEKA, Kan., July 10. (Special.)
The resting here Is that the people of
Kansaa are opposed to the tax on cor
poration embodied In the Aldrlch tar
iff bill. The square-deal Republicans
Were inclined to be dissatisfied with
President Taft and now that he is in
favor of a corporation tax, it is be
lieved the square-deal faction, headed
by Governor Stubbs, Attorney-General
Jackson and Bank Commissioner Dol
ley, will find other reasons for dis
agreeing with him. These leaders look
to Senator LaFollette for Inspiration
and they advised Senator Bristow, when
he went- to Washington, to follow the
lead of Senators LaFollette, Dolliver,
Cummins and Nelson in National poli
cies. Slights Bristow and Stubbs.
There is another reason why Mr.
Etubbs and his barkers would like to
break with the President, and the cor
poration tax may furnish them the ex
cuse. So far Mr. Bristow has not been
able to secure any patronage for the
square-dealers, and it looker as it he
is not in very close touch with the
White House. This fact is commented
on in Kansas freely, and It Is pointed
to as an indication that the LaFol
lette followers In this state will not
fare very well in the distribution of
Federal offices.
And then, the turning down of the
Governor a month or more- ago by the
President has left a sore spot that will
not heal. Mr. Stubbs, It will be remem
bered, secured the appointment of Rob
ert Stone, a Topeka lawyer, to a lucra
tive office, but the appointment was
speedily revoked upon representations
made by Senator Curtis and several of
'.he Kansas Representatives.
Say Tax Will Discriminate.
The contention of Kansans is that
the corporation tax is discriminatory in
Its workings and that it gives one mer
chant or business man a big advantage
aver another. The square-deal Repub
licans of the state have been rabid
against all corporations, and it seems
peculiar now to hear them defending
these organizations against the policy
Of Mr. Taft.

Dhlnagrl Says English Have Mur

LONDON. July 10. Maderlal Dhtnagrl,
the Indian student, who on July 1 shot
and killed Lieutenant-Colonel Sir William
Hutf Curxon-Wyllle and Dr. Cawas
La.loa.ca, was today committed for trial
at the Old Bailey for murder. The pris
oner denied the right of any English law
court to arrest or sentence him.
"If It is patrtotio for Englishmen to
fight against Germani If they occupy this
country," ho said. "Then It Is much
more Justifiable and more patriotic In
my case to fight against the English. I
hold that the English, people are respon
sible for the murder of 80,000,000 of my
countrymen during the last 60 years and
that they are also responsible for th
taking from India of 1100,000,000 every
year."

ST. PETERSBURG. July 10. The
Russian expedition from Baku which
landed at Enzeli, a Persian seaport on
the Caspian yesterday, is made up of
1000 Russian and 800 Cossack cavalry,
with eight field guns and eight machine
pruns. Despite the correct attitude
maintained by the Russians, the natives
are demonstrating their unfriendliness.
The unopposed advance of Slphldar,
the leader of the revolutionists, and
Sardarasad, the chief of the Bakhtlarl
tribesmen, towards Teheran, is taken
here to mean that General Llakhoff,
the Governor of Teheran, considers his
force inadequate to engage in a general
battle, and that he has decided to em
ploy his Cossack brigade merely as a
guard over the life of the Shah.
Persons well informed here regard
the entrance of the revolutionists into
Teheran as a foregone conclusion, while
the deposition of the Shah, which sev
eral times has been mooted, will now
cause no surprise.
ECHO OF ESTACADA FEUD
Attorney Bartlett Arrested for Carry

OREGON CITY, Or., July 10. (Spe

F.stacada, who is allied with the Heyl
man faction there, was arrested today
on a charge of carrying a concealed
weapon, and the hearing was set before
Justice of the Peace Samson on July 23.
Mr. Bartlett was represented by Attor
ney C. D. Latourette. The charge was
made by H. V. Ashburn, who states that
Bartlett drew a gun on his son, John
Ashburn.
According to reports received from
Estacada young Ashburn had been
drinking freely on the Friday preced
ing July 4, and insulted Bartlett while
the latter was walking on the streets
of Estacada in company with his wife.
Bartlett knocked him down, and the
young man, who is 22 years of age,
vowed vengeance, and when the two
met on the following Sunday near the
pavilion. Ashburn pulled his coat and
Bartlett drew his revolver and warned
him to keep away.

WASHINGTON. July 10. (Special.)
According to well-informed members of
Congress, one week or ten .days will
suffice for the conference committee
to reach an agreement on the tariff bill
and the programme to follow the lines
of the Senate bill, as far as can be
done without provoking a veto. The
President wants free oil, lumber at $1,
hides at 5 per cent, with a correspond
ing reduction on all leather goods, iron
ore free, and the corporation tax put
at 1 per cent, instead of 2. It is safe
to assume that the Persident's wishes
in these respects will be granted.
W1U Pass Aldrlch Bill.
The - composition of the- conference
committee practically Insures the vic
tory of the Aldrlch bill, modified as in
dicated. With all its bluster of yes
terday, the House will have to give in.
Sereno Payne, chairman of the ways
and means committee, demanded that
the conferees from his committee
should be chosen according to their
seniority, . but Speaker Cannon refused
to accede to his demand. Cannon, of
course, was opposed to low-tariff men
HkJMoCaJL-but he could not Ignore
the Massachusetts man, so he added
Dalzell, Fordney and Calderhead, then
put on Boutell as his own personal rep
resentative. Payne and McCall will
tight for the House bill. ' The other
four will be against them. Needham
might have been a conferee, but, as.
he believed he ought to stand for the
bill he helped to make, the Speaker
feared to put him on the committee. .
Cannon Spike's Brlstow's Guns.
Calderhead's appointment was a
clever political move. The Kansas
delegation asked for it and by granting
the request the Speaker made sure of
six or eight Nebraska votes for the
rule, beside which he spiked Senator
Brlstow's guns. The progressives in
Kansas, behind Bristow, Murdock and
Madison, have been making it look om
inous for Senator Curtis. It is hoped
by the latter and his friends that the
bill finally passed will demonstrate Its
own merits and rehabilitate the politi
cal fortunes and forces of the regulars.
TWO SUBJECTS OF CONFLICT
Cheaper Woolens and Cottons Are
Issues Before Conferees.
WASHINGTON, July 10.-Cheaper cot
ton and woolen goods and cheap hosiery
and women's gloves the fdrmer de
manded by the House and the latter by
the " Senate promise to be among the
most stubbornly fought questions in the
congressional conference on the taTlff
bill. At least that is the way things ap
pear at the close of the first day's ses
sion. There was a great deal of speculation
today among leaders In Congress who
are not parties to the conference as to
what shall be done with those items.
Many members express the opinion that
the House will yield on cotton and wool
and the Senate on gloves and hosiery in
compliance with the protectionists ideas
of etandpattlsm. If this should be the
outcome, it Is predicted . that vigorous
protests would be made in both the
Senate and the House from advocates of
downward revision. Some members went
so far as to Bay that an effort would be

Man Who Killed Gittings Found
Defiant After Arrest.
THIRSTS FOR MORE BLOOD
Blacksmith Who Shot After Charg

XTp Home Expected to Return
for Trial Without Protest. '
Melville G. Bradley, the slayer of
John W. Glttings, Portland policeman.
has been run to earth and captured af
ter a search that extended as far as
South Africa and continued almost con
stantly since the date of the crime,
December 18, 1907. He was arrested
yesterday morning by Chief of Police
Fisher, of Idaho Falls, Idaho, and is
being held in that town awaiting the
arrival of Portland officers.
According to advices received from
Idaho Falls by the police, Bradley has
confessed his crime and is' sullen and
desperate. It is probable that he will
waive extradition and submit to, being
brought back to trial without a legal
figh-t.
Xo Doubt of Identity.
The following" telegram, received by
Chief of Police Cox last night at 6:30
o'clock closed a telegraphic correspond
ence between the' two chiefs which had
been under way during the day, and
settled beyond doubt that the man
caught in Idaho Falls is really Bradley
Undoubtedly have right man; says
he killed him and if ever gets out will
kill another policeman. Signed.
"IRA FISHER."
Chief of Police Cox telegraphed:
"Hold Bradley; will send officer with
proper papers."
Another message was sent a short
time later asking if Bradley would
come without legal process. An an
swer had not been received up to a late
hour 'last night, but the belief is ex
pressed, that, in view of Bradley's con
fession, he will return without formal
ity. Petective . Coleman was selected
by Chief of Police Cox and Captain of
Detectives Baty to go after the long
wanted slayer. He will probably leave
for Idaho Falls on this morning's train.
Located for Two Weeks.
The first intimation the police had of
Bradley's discovery' came more than
two weeks ago.-when ex-Chief of police
Gritzmacher received a letter from
Chief Fisher saying that a man who
had aroused his suspicions was living
in Idaho Falls. The suspect corre
sponded closely to the description
which the local police had sent out of
Bradley In January, 1908, soon after
the murder. The man was being kept
under surveillance, and a more detailed
description was asked for. A photo
graph and the description were sent
back. Nothing further was Veard until
yesterday morning, when a telegram
was received saying that the man had
been arrested.
From earlier correspondence between
the two police officials, Bradley had
been In Idaho Falls for some time at
work at his trade, blacksmlthlng.The
details of how he had hidden his Iden
tity have not yet reached here.
Story of the Shooting.
The news of the capture caused many
expressions of satisfaction among the
members of the police department, . for
no killing which has occurred In Port
land for years has excited more feeling
among the police than did the murder
of Gittings. The crime occurred out
side of the old Tlvoll saloon, at Sell
wood and Delay streets. The shooting
followed a quarrel between Bradley
and Joe P. Slvener, Bradley's brother-in-law,
Glttings being present. Back
of It all were ugly rumors which asso-

FIGHT IS STARTED
ON LAFOLLETTE
"SILKXT WILLIAM" COXXOR

Wisconsin Senator Sees Signs of
Xational Campaign and
Will Watch.
MILWAUKEE. July 10. (Special.) In
dications now seem to point to another
political duel between Senator LaFollette
and W. D. Connor, commonly known as
Silent William." Three years ago Con
nor beat LaFollette when, as state chair
man, he picked up Davidson for Gov
ernor after LaFollette had pinned his
faith to Lenroot, whom he has since
helped Into Congress. Now, Connor is
planning, it Is said, to come out for the
United States Senatorial nomination.
LaFollette is fully aware of what is
going on in Wisconsin. He is satisfied
that the fight made upon him in this state
has far deeper significance and is only
part of a Xational fight against him and
the principles which he says he repre
sents. As soon as Congress adjourns,
LaFollette will be back at Madison, and.
barring some speeches at county fairs
and a few Chautauqua lectures, he will
remain at home, where he will meet his
friends from every part of the state as
occasion demands.
ESKIMO WILL SEEK POLE
Boy Brought Here by Peary to Try
for Arctic Honors.
NEW YORK. July 10. (Special.) Sepa
rated from his native home for 13 years,
Mene Wallace, an Eskimo boy brought
to this country with five of his people
by Commander Peary from the polar
rogions, sailed today on the Ked Cross
line steamship Rosalind, for St. Johns
X. F., whence he will be conveyed to
his home in Greenland.
Before Mene sailed, the Arctic Club
extracted from him a written agreemen
that he would not again return to thi
country and that while in Greenland he
would not bear arms against the Peary
expedition. This was due. it is believed
to the fact that Mene, angered at the
attitude of Peary and the Arctic Club in
refusing to take him back to Greenland,
once safe in his native home, might seek
revenge for the treatment he received
while in this country.
Mene said he would organize an expedi
tion of Eskimos to find the North Pole.

Defective in his hearing since his birth,
John Jochimsen, 13 years old, by being

Jochimsen's hearing had been such

school, although he was recognized by
his teachers as a naturally Intelligent
boy. While playing last evening, a
thrown ball struck him in the head
and he fell to the ground. It was feared
by his companions that he had been
seriously Injured, but he quickly
Jumped to his feet, and said something

It was immediately noticeable that

SPOKANE, Wash.. July 10. (Special.)
"My name hasn't spelled defeat yet, and
I propose to continue to have it spell

Arkwright Hutton, upon her return from
Seattle this morning, where she attended
the American Women's Suffrage Asso
ciation. "The Spokane delegation. 43 strong,
w-ent to the National convention with a
purpose and It came away victorious."
said Mrs. Hutton. "I feel that we ac
complished our end and that we got a
great deal more than what we hoped
for or deserved. It Is true that the Spo
kane delegation was thrown out bodily,
but right here I want to remark that 22
other clubs, the majority from Seattle,
were also unseated.
in lo Jtear of Mrs. DeVoe.
"The National officers were eminently
fair. They are good Christian women,
and they won't tolerate ward politics in
suffrage conventions. It is too bad that
women' heelers were allowed In the con
vention, but they gained nothing in tha
end.
.Right will always win out. I feel
that Mrs. Emma Smith DeVoe hanged
herself by her own weight. She is down
and out now, and we have nothing to
fear from her. Even her own towna
women went back on her.
AVants to Fight in Ranks.
"I propose between this day and tha
meeting of the new state organization
In October to reconnoiter the situation
and touch the pulse of the state on
woman sufTrage. I don't propose to
have my name spell defeat this time
in life, and if I discover, after careful
investigation, that the cause is best
served with me out of it, I shall step
down. I shall not accept office in the new
state organization. I want to work in
the ranks, shoulder to shoulder and el
bow to elbow with the good women of
this state. After I get hold of a stenog
rapher I will dictate a statement which
I will sisrn. and which may be circu
lated anywhere. It will explain the po
sition of the Spokane women at Seattle,
with particular reference to myself."
Leaders Stand by Delegates.
Mrs. LaReine Baker, another dele
gate, said:
"When we went to Seattle, there was
one state' organization whose guests the
National and state delegates were. This
organization, controlled by Mrs. DeVoe,
was of so belligerent and destructive a
character that the National officers were
compelled to throw them out of the con
vention. They also unseated the Spo
kane delegation because they asserted
that we had padded our membership.
Mrs. Hutton, being a vice-president an I
member of the executive committee, and
myself were allowed In the convention,
but had no voice.
"Immediately after onr delegation wa
unseated we decided fo stick by our
delegation. If our women could not at
tend the convention, we decided the best
thing to do was to form a new organiza
tion, and consequently we met In Ellers
Hall and formed a new state organiza
tion. This new state organization will
meet in Spokane in October, about Oc
tober 10 to October 17. Delegates from
all the state clubs will be represented.
We will invite every man and woman In
the state over the age of 18 years.
