WASHINGTON, May 28. A protest
aeainst the action of certain Demo
cratic members of Congress in oppos
ing the appropriation of $3,000 for the
president's traveling expenses, covering
the President's Southern trip and an
oiler to make up the deficiency was
telegraphed to Speaker Cannon today

merce, the Cotton Exchange and the
(ieorgia-Carolina Fair Association.
The telegram announced that at a
called meeting of the three organiza
tions held today the following memorial
was ordered sent to the Speaker, to be
presented to the House and to Presi
dent Taft:
1 mlignatrou Is Aroused.
'Augusta, the Winter home of Presi

mi-mhers of Congress in defeating by
technical yhjection the proposition to
make retroactive, so as to cover all the
expenses of his last Southern trip, the
appropriation of . $25,000 for the Presi
dent's traveling expenses.
"At a joint meeting of the Chamber
of Comnxf-oe. the merchants and Manu
facturers' Association, the Cotton Ex

thts day, it has unanimously agreed
that we respectfully tender, through
you. to the Government of the United
States, the $5000 necessary to meet the
deficiency of the President's recent
transcontinental trip, which did so
much to cement the ties between the
different sections and bring the Na

in closer touch and in sympathy each
with the other."

to about $V(I00 or S00O.
Representatives Hard wick and Bart

FARMER'S LOT IS " HAPPY
Senator Smoot Talks to Senate About
Improved Conditions.
WASHINGTON, May 2$. Presenting
a series -of tables, Senator Smoot to
day addressed the Senate with refer
9nce to the condition of the farmers of
the country, as compared with their
condition in 1U06.
"While the prices of practically all
commodities have shown some advance
during the last few years,", he said,
"the products of the farm show a much
srreater advance than do the prices of
the products of the mines and fac
tories." He gave the following specifications:
Corn, US per cent: wheat, 88 per cent;
cotton, 92 per cent; oats, 1X2 per cent;
rye, US per cent; bailey, 1 2 per cent;
hay, 49 per cent; hops, 640 per cent;
potatoes, 73 per cent; flaxseed, 142 per
cent; fat cattle, 92 per cent; fat hogs,
172 per cent; dairy butter, 57 per cent;
eggs, 107 per cent. Commenting on
general conditions, .Mr. Smoot said:
"The financial condition of the grain
raiser of the Northwest, the general
farmer of the Middle West, the cotton
planter of the South, is better than
ever hefore. Financially, the farmer
has Become independent. The general
free delivery and the telephone have
placed him in touch with the world and
lie is as familiar with current events
as the city dweller."
PINCHOTISM TO BE SPREAD

WASHINGTON, May 28. Plans are un

paign into every stat. With Gifford Pin
chot ns its president, the National Con
servation Association, which has its- head
quarters in the Colorado building here,
lias begun a vigorous campaign to extend

DRAW CLOSING POSTPONED
. (Continurd From First Page. )
today, that Portland will have to be
content with closed draws during the
morning rush hours and continue to
submit to delays in the evening.
Representative Kills has no hope the
closing can be brought about by legis
lation and thinks the conference com
mittee will not yield.
IWSSKXGKKS NOT AFI'KCTED
Xo Traffic to He Impeded by Closing
of Draws at Xlglit, Say IJiverinen.
I'nofficiul observations of bridge oper
ators in the local harbor do not indicate
that there is any passenger traffic that
would be impeded if the suggestions of
Senator Bourne to close the bridges be
tween 5:30. and 6:30 each evening should
be accepted by General Marshall, chief
of the corps of United States Engineers.
Most of the passenger business is han
dled by the steamers during the after
noon, with a small percentage in the
morning and virtually none during the
evening. It la assorted, b ttia bridge-
men that so far as the morning hours
are concerned, nine-tenths of the de
mands to swing the draws are from
steamers towing log rafts and sand
scows, and they declare that absolutely
no inconvenience could result to the own
ers through having to wait until one of
the 15-minute periods for a clear channel
is allowed.
-The steamer Lurline,' operating to .As
toria, usually arrives up at 5 o'clock each
morning and her passengers have ample
lime to catch trains and cars. She leaves
for Astoria on the return trip at 7 o'clock
and there are no passengers aboard who
are bent on making close connections
with trains at local points, for she makes
no stop until after entering the Colum
bia. The steamers America and Iralda, ply
ing between Portland and points about
Rainier and St. Helens, arrive about 11
o'clock in the morning and depart at
2:30. The Jessie Harkins and lone ar
rive about 11 o'clock and depart at 3.
Steamers for The Dalles leave at 7
o'clock, with no passengers seeking train
connections, and arrive in about 5 o'clock.
The steamer Hassalo. for Astoria, ar
rives at 5 o'clock in the afternoon and
departs at 8 in the evening.
The Upper Willamette craft depart
about 6:4B o'clock each morning and re
turn between 4 and 6 o'clock, according
to the amount of freight handled, but
as they do not have to be guided at pres
ent by the Madison-street bridge, they
have not been watched closely.
River pilots say they do not antici
pate delays if the arrangement is made
effective, because they can time the
movement of vessels through the bridges
to take place before or after the rush
hours.
As the Willamette and Columbia rivers
are virtually paralleled by rail lines, and
travelers wishing to hasten do not pa
tronize the water routes, the bridgemen
argue that closing the draws cannot work
hardship either morning or evening and
that towage business will not be hamper
ed by brief delays.

KIEV, May 2S. One thousand and
two Jewish families have now received
notification that they must leave the
city in accordance with the determina
tion of the Russian government to
drive back into the pale all Hebrews
who are unable to establish their legal
right to remain outside its confines.
This number includes' r.O families . to

today.
An additional 193 families living in
the suburbs outside the city proper are
subject to deportation before June 1

It is impossible to get statistics
showing the number of those already
expelled. Even the Jewish Relief Com

between 200 and 300 Jewish families
have left the city.
MINNEAPOLIS HAS BIG FIRE

Cotton Men Attack Payne TariTf.
NEW YORK, May 28. A "cost-of-living
exhibit," aiming to show that the Payne"
Aldrich tariff law has worked "gross in
justice and terrific advances" in cotton
goods, has been prepared by the general
committee of the wholesale drygooda men
organizations here. Typical classes of pop
ular white ooris are taken as illustrations
of the committee's claim that the "new
so-called specific rates on cotton goods
show increases that have hit materials
in common use by the people of the coun
try." According to the committee, "these
item?, picked at random, expose percent
ages of advance up to &o per cent in
crease in goods actually imported since
the law went into effect."

VANCOUVER. B. C, May 28. It Is
feared here that six persons who set
out In a small sloop for Plumper Pass
10 days ago may have been lost in the
Gulf of Georgia. They were to return
four days ago, but nothing has been
heard of them since they left Van
couver and yesterday relatives of those
in the party reported the matter to the
police. The party was made up of Mr.

Child Makes Dizzy Trip in Flume.
GLOBE, Ariz., May 28. Thomas Gard
ner, a 5-year-old boy of Thatcher, rode
a mile a minute down a seven-mile lum
ber flume yesterday and arrived at the
end of his thrilling journey unhurt.
Tommy was playing at the head of the
flume in the Graham Mountains. He
slipped and fell into the water and was
carried at the speed of an express train
down the flume, which in stretches is
almost perpendicular. He was scratched
slightly about the face and arms, but
that was all.
Quake Adds $75,000 to Water Value
SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., May 28
The earthquake of two weeks ago has
resulted in something of a freak of na
ture in that it has increased the water
supply of the city of Corona. The Te
mescal Water Company secured its
supply from the Coldwater, Mahew and
Gregory Canyons. During the entire
year the flow varies but slightly, but
since the quake the total increase for
the three canyons amounts to 75 Inches.
As water sells for $1000 an inch this
increase la worth. $75,000.'

BUYING OF VOTES DENIED
Disagreement With Publisher, He
Declares, Had Origin in Cam
paign of 18 84 Personal At
tack Marked by Invective.
WASHINGTON, May 28. For two hours
today. Senator Lorimer, of Illinois, stood
in the Senate and in vigorous language
denounced as untrue the charges of
bribery made against him in connection
with his election to the Senate. Upon
leaving the chamber at the conclusion
of his speech, Lorimer hurriedly put his
affairs in order and caught a late train
for Chicago. In his address Lorimer
made emphatic denial of all the allega
tions of corruption and sought t turn
the accusation of wrongdoing upon the
Chicago Tribune, in which the charges
were first published. He declared the
attack was aimed not only at him but
at his bank.
The speech was devoted to a review of
Chicago and Illinois politics for the past
25 years. He charged the Tribune with
sinister motives in its attacks, saying
that it had been fighting him ever since
1884, charging that it was inspired be
cause of its failure to control his course
as a public man.
Deneen Accused as Traitor.
Lorimer gave many particulars con
cerning his Senatorial election, saying
that after persuading him to enter the
race Governor Deneen had deserted him
and sought to turn against him those
whose support he had formerly procured
for him.
At the close of his speech Lorimer of
fered a resolution directing that an in
quiry into the charges be made by the
committee on privileges and elections.
The resolution was:
"Resolved, That the committee on
privileges and elections be directed to
examine the allegations recently made
in the public press charging that brib
ery and corruption were practiced in
the election of William Lorimer to a
seat in the United States Senate, and
to ascertain the facts in connection
with these charges and report as early
a.s possible; and, for that purpose, the
committee shall have authority to send
for persons and papers and to employ a
stenographer and sucti other additional
help as it shall deem necessary."
Bank- Object of Attack.
Opening his speech, Lorimer said that
the Chicago Tribune was -nspired by a
desire to destroy him and his friends,
financially and politically.
"I have been compelled," he went on,
"to defer my return to the Senate, owing
to the fact that the story was timed and
published with a deliberate purpose to
destroy a new banking association in
Chicago whlch I have been organizing
with some of my friends. The assault
was made to prevent the bank from open
ing. It utterly failed of its purpose, but
it required my constant attention to build
an impregnable bulwark around the
bank to safeguard the interests of those
who have intrusted their funds to the
care of my associates and myself against
any malicious or vicious assault that
may be made against It by the Tribune."
Relating that it had been charged that
the bribe had been paid through Hon.
Lee O'Neil Browne, the Democratic lead
er of the Illinois House of Representa
tives, he defended Mr. Browne as entire
ly above participation in such a proceed
ing. He declared that Medill McCormick, of
the Tribune, ffad threatened that the bank
should never open and asserted that
White did not write the story as had
been claimed, but that it was "the work
of a trained newspaper hand, skilled in
the art of creating scandal out of lies
when it is thought necessary, to blacken
the character of one whom the newspaper
cannot control.'
Dead Legislator Defended.
Defending Charles Luke, a deceased
member of the legislature, against a
charge that he had been a beneficiary of
his (Lorimer's) bribery, the Senator told
how Mr. Luke, a Democrat, had prac
tically risen from his death-bed to vote
for him, a Republican, but without other
motive than friendship.
Senator Lorimer then proceeded with
unmeasured words of bitter invective and
epithet to attack Medill McCormick per
sonally. He -asserted that Representa
tives Link and Beckmeyer had not made
confessions, as had been charged, but
that, on the contrary, they had said that
the "charges stand as they stood April
30, the uncorroborated lies of the Tribune,
supported only by the bought signature
of their weak tool, White."
Senator Lorimer went on with in
creasing vehemence to assert that the
Chicago paper "lied, and knew it lied"
in charging that money was used to pur
chase his election.
"Not one dollar was paid to a single
member of the General Assembly for his
vote for me," the Senator declared, and
he added that when the truth was known
everybody would understand that the
publication of the article by AVhite was
"a part of a political conspiracy to drive
me out of public life, to ruin me finan
cially because I will not .do as other
Republicans in Illinois have done place
myself under the absolute control and
dictatorship of the Tribune."
Deep Waterway Point of Difference.
He declares that by subserviency he
could at any time have made his peace
with the newspaper.
He traced his breach with Governor
Deneen largely to a difference of opin
ion between the two as t the wisdom
of spending, independently of action by
the National Government, the $20,000,
000 p edged by the state toward the
deep waterway to the Gulf project,
which the Governor favored and he op
posed. Lorimer further attacked the Chicago
Tribune's policy in opposition to .the
Payne-Aldrich tariff, attributing It to
its failure to put on the free list wood
pulp, which would have saved it $40,
000 a year.
Lorimer's resolution for an investi
gation of his election was referred
under the rules to the con.mittee on
contingent expenses. Upon a report from
that committee, it will go to the commit
tee on privileges and elections, which will
decide whether an inquiry shall be held.
FOREIGN CAPITAL OPPOSED
Chinese Protest Against Hallway
Iyoan Written in Blood.
PEKING, May 28. The opposition of
the gentry and other popular leaders
in Hunan and Honan provinces to the
acceptance by the Chinese Governmental
of the Hankow-Scheuzen Railway loan
has not diminshed. On the contrary,
the anti-foreign sentiment regarding
this particular subject is becoming
more pronounced.
This extremely hostile feeling was
expressed in a startling manner re
cently. President Siu Chi Tchang, of
the Board of Communications, received
a letter of the opposition in Hunan
Province, protesting against the con
clusion of the loan. The communica
tion was written in the blood of the
writer's severed finger.
During the negotiations between the
financial groups of the United States,
Great Britain. Germany and France,
there were occasional manifestations
against the government in the (wo
provinces, and the trouble became
acute a few weeks before the loan
agreement was signed in Paris by the
members of the International Banking
Synidicate. It is generally beiieved
that the violence organized by the gen
try and done by the natives at Chang
sha, the capital of Hunan, was influ
enced to a considerable degree by op
position to the acceptance by China of
foreign capital and foreign direction
In the construction of the Hankow
railway line, which influential person
ages in the province wished to build,
if at all, with Chinese capital.
REBATE CHARGE IS MADE
Chicago Merchants Cause Illinois
Central to Be Investigated.
CHICAGO. May 28. Hundreds of
books and records belonging to the Il
linois Central Railroad have been
seized by the United States Govern
ment following charges of discrimina
tion in tariffs made by commission men
of Chicago, according to the Tribune.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
has reported the alleged rebating to
the Department of Justice at Washing
ton. As a result the Federal grand jury
in Chicago next week, under the di
rection of District Attorney Sims, will
begin a thorough investigation of the
situation.
Edward G. Davies, one of the com
plainants,, alleges that the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad has discriminated against
him and certain other commissionmen
of the South Water street district, in
favor of consignees. More than half a
dozen comjilaints have been filed by
Davies charging that the Illinois Cen
tral exacted from him one cent a 100
pounds for unloading shipments of cab
bage, while others were charged noth
ing for the unloading services.
WAR PLANS ARE HURRIED
Conflict Appears Inevitable Between
Ecuador and Peru.
WASHINGTON, May 2. Official
dispatches received at the State De
partment both from Lima, Peru, and
Quito, Ecuador, indicate that warlike
preparations between Peru and Ecua
dor are being rapidly pushed forward,
and that conflict seems inevitable.
In view of the fact that both Peru
and Ecuador had accepted without re
serve Secretary Knox a proposition for
the United States', Brazil and Argentina
to mediate between these two countries
In the matter of their boundary dis
pute, the State Department officials
are at a loss to understand their pres
ent attitude.
It was the understanding of the of
ficials that In opening the mediation
proposition they had of necessity ac
cepted the conditions' proposed by the
offer, the principal one being the im
mediate withdrawal of their armies
from the common frontier.
PARDON GRAFT CHARGED
King to Secure Freedom for Convicts
Alleged In Colorado.
CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo.. May 28. In
a complaint filed in a justice court here
yesterday by District Attorney J. E.
Ferguson, C. E. Hagar, former secre
tary of the State Board of Charities
and Corrections, is charged with- hav
ing taken a bribe of $180 for using
his- influence to secure the pardon of
Samuel Haas, a convict in the State
Penitentiary at Canon City. The com
plaint Is sworn to by John F. Wright,
a business man of Cripple Creek.

charges that for the last ten years
there has existed in this state a "par
don ring" by the members of which
pardons were secured for convicts, pro
vided "Inducements" were offered.

SWIFTS OPEN NEW BRANCH
Klamath Falls to Be Headquarters
for Interior Trade.
KLAMATH FALLS, May 28. (Special.)
That the business of Klamath County
is to be reached out after by the largest
concerns of capital in the United States,

of the Union Meat Company of Medford,
which is a branch of the Union Meat
Company of Portland, which is owned by
