the Government of all power to protect
the election of members of the Senate
from such fraud, violence or corruption
as may taint Senatorial elections North
or 'South."
He said that the adoption of the I
amendment would give substantlaL I
though limited National aantCcs 'o the
disfranchisement of negroes in tne
Southern States.
Congress Would Loe Power.
"In their disfranchisement.- said Car
ter, "we now passively acquiesce, but
with this attitude fens tors are not con-
tent; hey ask us actually to strip Con- j
gress of the power to question elec
tion methods and actions Insofar as the
election of United States Senators may
be concerned and by way of inducement
to the Congress and to the Nation to
consent to the permanent suppression of
more than a million votes at elections
to choose Senators, they will co-operate
in the adoption of a constitutional
amendment providing for the election of
United States Senators by a direct vote
of the people."
Carter admitted that perplexing ques
tions confront the people of the South,
but warned the Senators supporting the
proposed constitutional limitations "that
they had better allow time and a toler
ant public sentiment to aid In the solu
tion of cej-taln problems rather than to
invite the country to give constitutional
sanction to deplorable expedients which
every patriotic citizen must earnestly
pray might not long be deemed neces

Lodge Bill Is Itecalled.
The Senator recalled the Lodge elec
tion bill, its defeat and the reaction
"that swept practically every section
of the old Federal election laws from
the old statute books, but there the re
action stopped and the country set
tled down in patience for a period of
reflection and observation."
To the Senator there occurred no rea
son for fear that this period would not
long be continued, "unless the men of
the South shall insist upon immediate
and final disposition of the issue by
the abrogation of the power of the Fed
eral Government to deal with it."
NEW COMMITTEES TO BE LARGE.
Democrats Prepare for Enlarged
Membcrslilp of House.
WASHINGTON, Jan. II. Large com
mittees will be the rule In the lower
liuusu of the 63d Congress. Under a
resolution offered by Representative
Covington, of Maryland, and carried by
the caucus of the Democratic Representatives-elect
Thursday njght, the import
ant committees will have a membership
of 21 each.
There is no disposition to cut down
the minority representation on these
bodies and it if felt by Democratic lead
ers tmu some time In the future the nu
merical strength of the House will be
augmented. These points were taken into
consideration in adopting the proposi
tion. The rules committee, on account
of Its particular functions, will not be
so enlarged.
Chairman Underwood, of the prospec
tive ways and means committee, which
will have the duty of naming the com
mittees, said that, aside from the rules
committee, the standing committees prob
ably will not be constructed for months.
Despite Underwood's declaration that
none of the 'chairmanships have been de
termined, it is pretty generally under
stood smong Democratic leaders that

In a complaint In equity filed with

fraud, deceit, cheating, fraudulent col
lusion and wrongful conversion of large
sums of money to his own use.
One hundred and thirty-seven full
typewritten pages are embodied in the
complaint, which covers the entire
period of the Portland manipulator's
connection with the Stanfleld concerns.
The title of the case is set down as
the Inland Irrigation Company, the Fur
nish Ditch Company and W. J. Furnish
against Henry. W. Coe, Viola Coe, Co
lumbia Land Company, the Hlbernla
Savings Bank, Sloan & Company, E. N.
Wheeler and George C. Coe.
Wife Charged AVith Conspiracy.
The Hlbernla Bank is brought In
merely as trustee of the companies in
their transactions with Coe. The other
defendants are specifically charged
with participation with Coe In his vari
ous alleged schemes for mulcting the
properties, controlled mainly by Mr.
Furnish, of large sums. Mrs. Coe, who
looked after her husband's interests
during the protracted period last Fall
when he was soJournTTig In parts un
known following the first announce
ment of his alleged shortages, is
charged with having since conspired
with Coe to defraud the companies.
In taking up and dissecting Dr. Coe's
connection with the companies the com
plaint harks back to February, 1908.
when a contract was entered into
whereby Coe was to sell land under the
Furnish irrigation project at $40 an
acre. A year later a new contract was
entered into and at the same time pro
vision was made for an elaborate ir
rigation system to include a big reser
voir. All outstanding obligations were
met and the companies took a fresh
start, making a bond issue of $280,000.
the bulk of which became the property
of Mr. Furnish. These bonds were to
run four years and to bear interest at
the rate of 5 per cent per annum and
all outstanding contracts on land sales
were pledged for payment of these
bonds, excepting an item of $7000 due
Loe in commissions. ,
Sales Agreement Male.
ut. Loe, Dy me terms of the new
agreement, was to buy, at a cost of
$20,000, tne site of the proposed reser
voir and accept therefore 10 $1000
bonds, half numbered from the first and
half from the last of the issue. The
bonds. It was provided, should become
payable and due in rotation. Dr. Coe.
it is shown, has long since secured $1000
eacn. ror nis nrst 10 bonds.
To Mr. Furnish went $260,000 of the
bond issue, out of which he was to pay
tno aeDis or tne lniana company, amount
ing to $100,000. Coe, as manager and
sales agent, was to receive 15 per cent
of the, groHS selling price and was to
bear all selling expenses. It was stipu
lated that the land, now provided with
adequate irrigation facilities, should be
sold for not leas than $120 an acre. Coe
was required to make a report of all
transactions on me loin day of every
montn.
He was to keep 26 per cent of the
proceeds and turn 60 per cent over to
ine treasurer lor corporation expenses
ana tne otner Zo per cent wa to be
applied for Interest and taking up of
bonds, which were to run for a period of
four years. All overplus of the operating
and Improvement fund was to be credited
to the bond and Interest fund, the Hl
bernla Savings Bank performing these
functions as trustee. It waa agreed that
Dr. Coe must sell $150,000 worth of prop
erty by" March, 1. 1910. and $100,000 worth
each year thereafter until the bonds were
taken up. One-third cash payment was
the basis of all time sales.
In the event Dr. Coe lived up to all
the requirements ox the contract It was
stipulated and agreed that he should re
ceive the Mock of the Inland Irriga
tion Company. It was to pass from
escrow into his possession when 50 per
cent or the bonou were paid up, the re
maining CO per cent to operate as a
Hen on the Mock until fully pid.
Shortage Is Charged.
Up to July lu. 1310, Dr. Coe made his
reports as required, it is shown, but these
reports were not accurate, so it is
charged. The money coming in from his
sale did not suffice to pay for improve
ments and operation, while a very small
turn accumulated (or the repayment of
the bonds. $U3.0CO of whtun were held
unredeemed by Mr. Furnish. Demand
waa Immediately made for an accounting
and wttlement. but Dr. Coe Is represented
ss raying he could not settle at once,
admitting shortages in large sums.
When the situstion was gone over
with Dr. Coe. the complaint recites
he admitted having retained $24,291.80
received from first payment receipts:
$32,860.10 proceeds on cash sales; $33,
491.95 received on incomplete first pay
ments; $11,962.9 from deferred pay
ments and $tSUs on options; a total
Of $109,611.81.
So. it is set out. an extension of
time was given him to remedy the
tangle, with the understanding that
he pay the contractors for their "work
on the reservoir and dam and provide
funds for the completion of the work.
He also signed all contracts held by
the' trustee bank.
But in admitting these shortages, he
fell far short of the whole, truth. It
is charged. It Is set out thit he col
lected even greater sums, but that
through his system of "agents, sub-
agents, devices
a. schemes and methods
t it Is found Impossible
of concealmen
to ascertain the exact amount without
the services of a receiver and ac
countants." It is next represented that he broke
every contract made with him by will

complainants. His connection with the
Furnish interests were accuiuiuij
severed October 19, when written no
tice was served, on him and upon his
attorney. Charles H. Carey, of Port
land. Many Instances of alleged fraud are
cited. It is noted in the complaint
that he collected $167 from E. J.
Thomas on a land sale and reported
only $-0; that he collected $954 from
V. S. Wlsner and reported nothing. A
long list of similar cases is quoted.
It Is further charged that Dr. Coe
exceeded his authority as exclusive
sales agent by making contracts
whereby purchasers might receive a
refund of their money. should they be
come dissatisfied with the land. It is
charged, too. that he undertook the
sale of competing land companies ana
that he entered into an agreement
with the Columbia Land Company, rep
resented In the complaint as insolvent,
whereby Furnish lands were to be
bought for a pittance and sold at a
large advance, the profits to be di
vided.
Mrs. Coe, it is alleged, advanced the
company $3090 for expenses Septem

RECIPROCITY AGREED Oil
AMERICAN AND CANADIAN" COM
MISSIONS OF ONE MIND.
Negotiation Are Quickly Terminated.
Terms Will be Announced
Thursday at Capitals.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 21. The Ameri
can and Canadian Reciprocity Com
missioners shortly after convening to
day began their last session of the
treaty conference. All members were
present and also Secretary Knox. At
the conclusion of the session the Com
mlssloners Jointly Issued the following
statement:
The negotiations have reached an
understanding which, when certain
formalities are completed, will be made
public at Washington and Ottawa. It
Is thought this may be done next
Thursday."
The present Canadian reciprocity
conference, which terminated so suc
cessfully today, was preceded by other
attempts which came to naught, the
last being about 10 years ago. The
present movement differed from others
in the absence of long drawn out nego
tiations, as the agreement was reached
ithln a remarkably short time, con
sidering its importance.
It may' be said to have grown out
of conferences between he United
States and Canada, Incident to allow
ance to Canada of the minimum tariff
rates under the Payne-Aldrich tariff
act of 1909. Canada was one of the
last important countries to take advan
tage of that section of the tariff act.
It is not even known what form the
announced agreement will take;
whether It will be presented in the
shape of a treaty or take the shape of
a simple Joint resolution to be laid be
fore the American Congress and the
Canadian Parliament.
