TACOMA. Wash.. July 30. Speclal.)
Seattle day brought to the military
tournament and the Tacoma stadium
the greatest crowds of the week, 34,500
persons witnessing the evening per
formance alone. Every seat In the
frreat Grecian theater was filled and
thousands found standing room in the
aisle and promenades. Not many more
thousands could have obtained en
trance. Captain J. J. Bradley, officer in
charge and referee, stated tonight the
expenses of staging the big Army
event had been equalled by the gate
receipts before today's performance
began and that this great crowd and
the two that are expected tomorrow
would be pure velvet for the Army
Telief and athletic funds. The receipts
art already over $20,000.
Wall Scaling Spectacular.
Something new In the way of spec
tacular events was furnished tonight,
when a wall-scaling contest was run
off between sections of the mountain
attery from Vancouver Barracks.
From a line 15 yards distant the bat
terymen charged the wall, went over
with their entire equipment, cannons
end all. set them up on the other side,
(fired one shot, advanced -5 yards and
fired again. The second section, under
command of Sergeant Spang, won in
1 minute, 40 4-5 seconds.
The battery also staged a novel con
test in which, at the start, mules were
tothered as though in camp and were
packed ready for a charge. The first
section, in command of Corporal Sleg
warth. won in 1 minute 20 2-5 seconds.
Companies A, B and C, of the First
Infantry, competed In a conical wall-tent-pitching
contest, but, although re
markably fast time was made by some
of the parties, only one tent was found
pitched according to the regulations.
This was put up by Company A in
44 1-5 seconds. The contest was a
continuation of one begun last night
and no .award has yet been made.
Tents Go Up In Flush.
Somewhat similar, but more spectac
ular, because more men took part, was
a shelter-pitching contest. The First
Battalion completed the test in 4 min
utes, 18 H seconds. The First Battalion
of the First Infantry will try tomor
row night to excel this time.
Sergeant Balllnger's team of B Bat
tery, Second Field Artillery, won an
easy victory in the mounted combat,
only losing two of its eight plumes
before it managed to knock off all
the plumes of Its opposing team.
So successful as a mlrth-provoker
the night before was the obstacle race
on mules that the tournament officials
ran another tonight. Private Bridges,
tonight's winner, on his mule Jack
was again victorious.
The bridge construction and demoli
tion by the engineers was repeated in
another tremendous success.
Private Stanley Hurt.
Trlvato Stanley, of the First Infan

at this morning's tournament athletic
exercises, but was severely ininH

THESPIAN'S FACE MARRED
Actor Tries to Steal From Hotel
Clerk and Gets Beating.
NEW YORK. July 30. (Special.)
John Lee, actor, is looking for a
Samaritan who'll give him bail and
for a face manicure who'll reset his
lineaments so they'll be more com
fortable.
The Thespian wants a bondsman be
cause Magistrate Cornell, In the West
Side Court, held him in $1000 on a
charge of grand larceny preferred as
the outcome of some trouble at the
Hotel Plymouth at 257 West Thirty-
eighth street.
John Clark, night clerk at the
Plymouth, told the magistrate he was
at the desk engaged in the blissful
duty of counting over $225 hard cash
just deposited with him by one Miss
Wilson, footlight favorite and guest of
tne house.
While in the midst of this delightful
task, Clark deposed, Lee reached over,
grabbed at the roll and got $55 of it.
ueponenf alleged Lee was almost to
the street when a bellhop tripped him
and, said Clark, "We took the money
away from him."
The process of removal must have
been painful, for Lee's face looked like
a suet pudding several days passe and
out oi piumb.
I was standing at the desk," he said,
'Just asking for a room when some
one said, 'There he is.' I guess the
root leu in arter that."
The magistrate held that, between
the two Johns, the betting average
xavorea tne story or the night clerk.
RIOTERS ARE RAMPANT
VIOLENCE AT COLTJMBFS WORSE
WHEN TROOPS ARRIVE.
Governor's Orders Make Militia
Useless to Prevent Stoning
of Strikebreakers.
COLUMBUS, O.. July 30. The pres
ence of three regiments of the Ohio
National Guard did not Intimidate Co
lumbus rioters and last night disturb
ances proved the worst since the strike
began.
A score of imported empleyes of the
Columbus Railway & Light Company
were injured by stones, bricks and other
missiles and by 10 o'clock car service,
which had been resumed at 4:30. after
the return at noon of Governor Har
mon to the city, was suspended and
cars were taken to the barns for the
night.
Mayor Marshall late tonight said he
was disappointed in the aid lent by the
troops. Promptly on his- arrival, the
Governor had declared that the militia
could not be used for police duty. He
declared they should remain in their
camps unless summoned to points
where rioting broke out.
When nightfall came the union sym
pathizers began attacks on cars in all
sections of the city. They defied the
police, as they had done on Drev-lous
nights. As they did not gather in crowds
mere were, with two exceptions, no
mobs to disperse. Before troops could
be summoned cars had been stoned and
the guilty persons had made their
escape.
Notable exceptions were on the
North Side, where, after crews had been
driven from cars and beaten, threats
were made to overturn and demolish
the cars. Battery C, of Columbus, ar
rived in time to drive the people into
their homes with riot clubs.
Retail merchants will call on the Gov
ernor tomorrow to summon the Legis
lature in special session to provide
compulsory arbitration law.
Adjutant-General Weybrecht, pfter
conference at midnight with Mayor
Marshall, In which the Mayor pre
sented a report of 39 riot calls re
sponded to by the police, announced
that tomorrow he would patrol the
city with troops and If the force
proved insufficient he would summon
either the Fifth or the Eighth .Regi

ARBITRATION HOW
ASKED DY UNIONS
Central Labor Council Sends
Invitation to Draymen, to
End Teamsters' Strike.
GENERAL TIE-UP OPPOSED
Radicals Propof It, But Saner
Counsel Prevails at Meeting.
Leaders Say Cause of Drivers
Has Been Misunderstood.
Arbitration of the teamsters' strike
In Portland is again proposed to the
Draymen's Association as the result of
the meeting of the central executive
committee representing the combined
union organizations of the city, and a
meeting which followed Friday night, of
the Central Labor Council, the supreme
labor union body in Portland.
The resolution recommended by the
committee and adopted by the Central
Labor Council inviting arbitration do
not express an ultimatum or threaten
a general strike, but union men who
attended last night's meeting say that
there was an element present that
strongly favored some such action. The
discussion of the issues at times grew
warm, it is asserted, but the sober
reasoning element in the gathering fin
ally prevailed and the threat of a gen
eral strike, involving the 12,000 union
workmen in Portland, was not ex
pressed by resolution or otherwise in a
public manner.
The disposition of the labor unions
before taking any further action, it is
said, is to give the Draymen's Associa
tion a reasonable time to reply to the
invitation. The resolution will be pre
sented to the secretary of the Dray
men's Association this morning and the
Central Labor Council will meet again
Sunday morning at 11:30 o'clock at the
Labor Temple to receive the secre
tary's report of the draymen's action.
Leaders in the union organizations
could not be prevailed upon last night
to make a prediction as to the prob
ability of a general strike in the event
the draymen give a peremptory refusal
today to arbitrate.
Whereas. The Central Iabor Council of
Portland and vicinity, appreciating the
graity of the industrial conditions In this
city, and mindful of the consequences bound
to result from aa extension of the forces
already involved in the struggle; and.
Whereas. The Central Labor Council Is
desirous of averting disaster and restoring
friendly relations between employer and em
ploye; and,
Whereas. The Central Labor Council, con
fident of the justice and fairness of the
teamsters' position in the present contro
versy, and anxious for tbe public to learn
the tiue merits of the case, therefore be it
Kesolved. That the Central Labor Council,
by authority vested In it, do hereby invite
the Draymen's Association to select three
representatives to meet with a like com
mittee, nominated bv this Council, consist
ing of Father E. P. Murphy. C. E. S. Wood
and Will Daly, who shall, if necessary, unite
on a seventh man to constitute an arbitra
tion beard to adjust any or all matters rela
tive to the contentions affecting the Dray
men's Association and the Teamsters' Union,
the award of the arbitration committee to
be bindlns on both parties. Further,
Resolved, That these repolutlons be fur
nished the dally press and the publicity com
mittee of the Central Labor Council shall Iji
sue a statement therewith for publication.
Daly Makes Comment.
William Daly, president of the central
Labor Council, in commenting on the
teamsters" strike and the efforts of union
labor to adjust the controversy, said last
night:
"I desire to refute absolutely the talk
that the closed shop has any bearing on
the teamsters' strike in Portland. There
Is but one issue and that is the payment
of an increase in wages to the teamsters
There have been no demands made for
any changes in the working rules by
which the teamsters have been governed
for a number of years. The accusations
of ulterior motives have clouded the issue
and now all that we ask is a fair con
sideration by the public, confident that
when this is had, the teamsters will re
ceive the fair increase in pay that they
are asking.
"The cries' of "closed shop' and attempt
at union labor domination of the city, are
without any foundation and are unfair
to us.
"The sub-committee that has inter
viewed a number of the merchants who
participated in the recent meeting of the
Retail Merchants' Association, and who
voted to maintain open shops, has ob
tained expressions of opinion that are
fair and just to the teamsters. Several
have stated that on account of the wav
the resolutions and arguments were pre
sented, they lost sight of the fact that
workingmen were endeavoring, to obtain
an advance In wages and that they would
not have voted as they did had it riot
been for this suppression of the real
issue. They have also expressed a desire
that the matter be taken up in an effort
to reach a settlement of the difficulty.
The friendship so expressed has been
more than gratfylng to us.
Conservative Action Advance.
"I feel that the conservative action of
the Central Council In seeking arbitra
tion is a distinct advance in our cause.
It shows that we believe that hasty
action looking toward a spread of the in
dustrial disturbance without an effort to
secure settlement would have tended to
prejudice the general public against the
draymen's employes in their contest for
Increased pay, and It also shows that
there Is a disposition on the part of the
union organizations generally to display
fairness toward the employers in the
controversy.
"I want to add a word concerning the
increase In pay asked by the teamsters,
that the public may be fully advised as to
the import of this, the only matter at
Issue. Of the 270 union teamsters in the
city, 210 under the proposed schedule
would receive an advance of 25 cents per
day; SO drivers of light rigs who are
now receiving $10 per week would get $2.25
per day or an advance of 5S cents per
day. but this larger advance would be
more than offset by the wages of 30 other
teamsters who now receive over $2.75
per day and whose wcgea would not be
increased by the proposed schedule.
Briefly expressed, then, the main Issue is
whether 210 men in Portland . who are
endeavoring to live on wages of less
than $2.75 per day in these times shall be
denied an advance of a mere 25 cents
In wages."
TOO MANY PARROTS HURT
Connecticut Man Likes Birds, but
Not In Bed.
WIXSTED. Conn.. July 6 Yielding to
no man in his affection for our dumb
friends.- Valentine Yankofski, who ap
peared before Judge Williams and ob
tained a decree of separation from Mrs.
Yankofski, said. he drew the line at try
ing to dwell in peace and amity with a
houseful of cats, parrots and dogs.
He told Judge Wilflams he believes in
pets when the pets sre kept in their
proper places, but that he is far from
convinced that (he cats, parrots and the
rest of the menagerie should have carte
blanche as to what they may do in a
house.
Ke had stood up as long as he could
under the affliction of having his wife's
trained animals sit at the tabie with him,
but when he remonstrated she said that
not only could they share the board, but
that when the time came at night for
the Yankofskia to retire, this hour was
also to be the animals' bedtime.
The plaintiff, who said his wife had
gone away leaving no forwarding ad
dress, was at a lot's to explain her exo
dus on any ground other than that she
had become piqued wh?n he kicked a
parrot out of bed simply because the
bird had chosen the Valentine Yankofski
face as a perch.
Mr. Yankofski said also that the dogs
with whom his wife had insisted that he
share his couch had developed a fondness
for sleeping in the day time and spend
ing the night roaming over him. Being
of an affectionate disposition, Yankofski
volunteered to provide separate main-.
teen-ance for the animal act, but his wife
had declined to be separated from her
pets and had gone away taking the pets
with her.

MRS. REGULA ZELTNEK WALKS
TO DEATH IN OCEAN.
Portland Pioneer, 80 Years Old, in
Demented State Takes Own
Life at Seaside.
SEASIDE. Or.. July 30. (Special.)
In a demented state of mind, Mrs. Reg
ula Zeltner, 80 years old, of 402 Park
street, Portland, wandered from her
roonr in the Colonial Hotel at 6 o'clock
Friday morning and deliberately walked
over 600 feet from the hotel into the.
ocean, just north of the Hotel Moore
pier, and was drowned. Mrs. Tom
Whalen, who was sitting on the pier
at the time, was the only witness. She
noticed the woman walk down to the
edge of the water and did not suspect
any danger until the woman did not
appear above the surface of the water
after what she thought was a dive
under a breaker.
Mrs. Whalen immediately rushed into
the 4pbby of the Hotel Moore and In
formed the clerk, who, with a few by
standers, ran to the scene of the acci
dent. With little effort they succeeded
in locating the body and hurried Dr.
Calnes to her aid, but he said she was
already dead.
Mrs. Zeltner had been a resident of
Portland for over 45 years, having
come to this country from Canton
Glaris, Switzerland, when a young girl.
She Is survived by a nephew, Henry j.
Hefty, an architect, of Portland, with
whom she had lived for the last few
years since her husband died.
Coroner Gilbaugh. of Astoria, took
charge of the body and will prepare
it for shipment to Portland, where It
will be bwried in Lone Fir cemetery,
beside her husband.
She came here two weeks ago with
Mrs. Henry J. Hefty, and intended to
return to Portland Saturday. Mrs.
Hefty said she went to a fortune-teller
last year and was told that she would
die when she was 80. Mrs. Zeltner
brooded over this a great deal and
often spoke about it, but those near
her never thought that she would end
her life in such a manner.
BAN PLACED ON BABIES
Wellesley Girls Say' Infants Mar
Commencement Exercises.
WELLESLEY, Mass.. July 30. (Spe
cial.) Space in the College News was
given up to two Wellesley undergradu
ates, who state that graduates who are
mothers should leave their offspring at
home if they attend commencement ob
servances. The letter has caused great
indignation.
The girls wrote;
"Since we must keep Tree day closed
to the public for the enjoyment of the
alumnae, should they be allowed to
bring their obstreperous infants to dis
tract their own attention and mar the
pleasure of the undergraduates?
"If it is utterly impossible for thess
young children to be left at home, we
should suggest that one of the society
houses be turned into a day nursery,
where fond mothers can leave their off
spring In care of an attendant, or, if
they prefer, remain to compare Jack with
Ruth or to discuss the latest fad in In
fants' food or clothing.
"By this plan the children could be
duly exhibited to less fortunate class
mates and the whole afternoon would be
more thoroughly enjoyed by all."

CLEVELAND. July 30. Declaring that
his faith is still unshaken in the ability
of Republicans to work out the vital
problems of tbe day. James R. Garfield,

the results of the convention concluded

and conduct of the platform fight," and
declares that the "progressives' " cam
paign has only Just begun.
The statement says In part:
"Unquestionably, the people of Ohio are '

should have started earlier.
"The fight against the domination of
special interests in politics is being waged
throughout the entire Nation. We in
Ohio have our great share in it. The
Immediate failure to obtain the entire
progressive platform should simply make
us see more clearly the need of constant
vigilance and mora firmly resolve to take
