ALBANY. Nov. 23. (Special.) That
Intangible something; known as "Ore
gon spirit" sprang one of the greatest
surprises of the football year today at
the Albany ball park. The University
of Oreg-on literally massacred the Or
egon Agricultural College, and,, while
the score was only 3 to 0, the wonder
. of. It is the margin wasn't larger.
A 25-yard place kick by Carl Fenton,
of Dallas, at the start of the second
quarter, decided the state gridiron
championship, but the scintillating: star
In the great battle of the year was
Halfback Johnny Parsons, a former
Portland High School athlete.
Corvallls IJne Outplayed.
Oregon's beefy line simply smothered
the Corvallls "Aggies," but It was this
dashing- Parsons, who ate his way
through the quick-closing' orifices, cir
cled the ends, zigzagged and plowed
for three-quarters of the Oregon yard
age. On the very first play he electri
fied the 6000 wildly excited enthusiasts
by biting off 25 yards around the
feeble "Aggies' " right wing-, and after
that the varsity always' hold the upper
hand.
Perfect order was maintained both
on and off the field. Between halves
the Agricultural College khakl-clad
rooters assembled In communion on the
rather slippery gridiron and liberated a
score or more of orange - bedecked
pigeons, who carried first news of the
core to Corvallls. "That's the way the
Aggies' play," shrieked one budding
George Ade. from the chrysanthemum
section. "Always up In the, air."
.And the witticism aptly described the
situation on the field of play. Dolan's
men played high and tackled woefully,
while Oregon showed a complete re
versal of past mediocrity by playing
real hard football, both old style and
modern.
Oregon's Defease Strong.
With perhaps the exception of Chrls-
inan at center and the doughty SItton I
at guard, the entire Corvallls line was
fConrluded on Pafe 12.)

Retiring Oatposts Lure Beleaguered
Garrison Into Sortie, Then Slay
With Artillery Fire.
FT FREDERICK PALMER.
(Copyright. 1912. New York Times.)
MUSTAPHA PASHA, Nov. 23. (pe
clal.) The drama of Adrlanople, with
Its g-arrlson at the point of starvation
and desperation, is steadily proceeding.
The Bulgarian method of whittling
down the defenders by murderous re
pulses of their sorties is proving ter
rlbly successful.
At 1 o'clock this morning- Mustapha
Pasha was awakened by such a heavy
gun fire that it seemed as If a general
aacault on the cltv must have been
begun.
It seems that yesterday the Invading
force saw that the Turks were prepar
i.v to moke sorties . In heavy force
to the west and south of Adrlanople.
Withdrawing their advance posts, the
Bulgars encouraged attacks upon them
and at the same time converged a kui
Ing tire from the infantry batteries and
raDid-flre guns upon the enemy.
The Turks advanced with ghastly
courage into the face of death, while
the Bulgarians showed that they could
be as skillful In night defense as they
were In night attack.
The end of the fighting- did not come
until noon today, when the Turks fell
back on their positions, leaving a large
proportion of their men on the Held.
Some estimate that at least half of the
attacking force were killed or wounded,
The sortie, according to all accounts,
was a fight for bread as well as for
Allah.
The losses of the Bulgarians was
slight, as they remained In positions
not exposed to the enemy and were
firing steadily on an object exposed by
the light of the bursting- shells.
Although the Bulgarian soldiers, for
the most part, have not been out of
their clothes for six weeks and are
sleeping on the ground, they continue
to amaze the foreign observers, by their
cheerfulness and aggressiveness. They
are impatient to storm Adrlanople, but
wiser counsels prevail among- the Gen
erals and the policy of piecemeal de
struction of the Turkish army will be
continued.
Opinion In the army here Is strongly
adverse to the signing- of peace until
Adrlanople falls. -
The sanitary conditions In the be
sieged city are reported to be ghastly.
Much of the town Is on a low level,
and the ueavy rains with the high
water fn the river Maritlza are said to
be spreading? disease as well as famine.
WOMEN SEEK BALLOT DUTY
Medford Sufragists tAsk for Place
on City Election Board.
MEDFORD, Or., Nov. 23. (Special.)
Women of Medford were quick to
take advantage of their recently grant
ed franchise tonight, when, at the first
meeting of the City Council after the
election, an application was made for
a woman member of the city election
board, and an application will also be
made In the near future for a police
matron in this city. The. women who
applied were members of the civic im
provement committee of the Greater
Medford Club.
The Mayor and Council received the
feminine delegation with every mark
of courtesy and respect and granted the
first request, appointing Mrs. A. B.
Schuster, -of Medford, a member of the
local election board. The enfranchise
ment of the women has doubled the
vote in Medford and It is probable that
there will be two election boards here
after to take care of the increased leg
islation. TOWN OF WHITE OWL BURNS

Woman Gets Hint Xot lo Return to
Courtroom Ironworkers' Offi
cials Held In Contempt At
torneys Repudiate Acts.
INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 23. Imprison
ment of Herbert 6. Hockin, one of the
chief defendants. In default of an In
creased bond which was required by
the court "because he had deceived
every one," the denouncing by the Dis
trict Attorney of a woman writer In
the courtroom as an "anarchist"; and
the repudiation by attorneys for the
defense of some of the acts of the de
fendants, were among sensational in
cidents at le dynamite conspiracy tri
al today.
I lock In was declared to have been in
the employ of detectives soon after the
Los Angeles Times explosion. He was
also accused of having told a witness
of overhearing John J. McNamara talk
to President Lynch, of the International
Typographical Union, about "an ex
plosion on the Pacific Coast."
Defense Disavow Acta.
United States Senator Kern was
among the counsel for the defense who
disavowed an article published by some
of the defendants.
The 45 men accused by the Govern
ment of complicity In the McNamara
dynamite plot;, by abetting for four or
five years In the Illegal, transporta
tion of explosives, sat In silence while
the testimony and the action of the
court brought in unexpected changes.
. The developments of the day -werei-
Herbert Sf. Hockin, secretary ' and
treasurer of the International Associa
tion of Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers, was taken to jail in default
of his being unable to increase the
310,000 bond to $20,000, ordered by the
court after a witness had said Hockin
was in the employ of a detective and
had been since soon after the Los
Angeles Times explosion, "and was not
to be trusted day or night by anyone."
Hockin la Union Officer.
Hockin Is the successor of J. J. Mc-,
Namara, the dynamiter, as an official
of the union, and Is regarded as one
of the principal defendants.
Miss Mary Field, of New Tork, was
branded aa an anarchist "who ought to
be excluded from the courtroom," to
certain articles she published concern
ing the trial In the union magazine.
All of the officials of the union, now
on trial. Including Frank M. Ryan,
president; J. T. Butler, Buffalo, vice-
president; M. J. Young. Boston, and P.
A. Cooley, New Orleans, were de
nounced for publishing what the court
said was "an outrageous contempt of
court."
Federal Judge Anderson said that as
It was Saturday night he -would not
be inclined to increase the bonds of
the last named defendants, although he
would not act on the motion at this
time."
Judge Threatens Attorneys.
No sooner had the court spoken than
Senator Kern and William N. Harding,
among the attorneys for the defense,
arose and said they had not been con
sulted about publishing the article
criticising the trial, and that they dlsa-

COURT TO SETTLE DISPUTE
Astoria Taxpayers Bring Test Case
Over Irving-Avenue Slide.
ASTORIA. Or., Nov.. 23. (Special.)
The question of the legality of paying
the Irving avenue improvement war
rants with money taken from the gen
eral fund of the city is to be tested
before the courts. That was decided
upon this afternoon when a suit was
filed In the Circuit Court by Robert
Carruthers and Franz Kankkonen
against the city, the Auditor and the
Treasurer, asking that the defendants
be restrained from paying the warrants
In question.
About four years ago 316,500 In war
rants drawn on the Irving avenue im
provement fund were Issued to pay the
contractor for 80 per cent of the work
done on the Improvement. Soon after
wards a big slide occurred on the street
and the Improvement was never com
pleted and no assessments have been
collected. On last Monday, evening, the
Council, over the Mayer's veto'and di
rectly against the advice of the City
Attorney, passed an ordinance authoriz
ing the payment of those warrants by
Issuing in their place warrants drawn
on the general fund.
The complaint filed today asserts that
the ordinance Is void, as tinder the
charier. Improvements must bo paid for
with warrants on the improvement fund
and In no other way.

Delegates to Xational Association
Convention at Philadelphia
Excited at Circulation of
Socialist Stickers.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov., 23. (Spe
cial.) The National American Woman
Suflraee Association, by an over-
wnelmlng vote, 380 to 38, sane
tioned today, after full and free dis
cussion, participation by its officers
and members in the affairs ot political
parties. -
Some women, prominent in the as
sociation, who have been ardent work
ers for woman suffrage for years, and
others who have had t-e distinction
of being liberal contributors to its
treasury, asserted that the vote in
convention today marked the end of
the National organization, but the dele
gates. 10 to 1, were willing to take
all chances.
Miss Addams Starts Things.
Misa Jane Addams, of Chicago, pre
cipitated the issue. When she allied
herself with a political party in June
she started an opposition within the
suffrage organization. She frankly told
the convention today that she had for
gotten she was a member of. the
suffrage association when she commit
ted her'silf to the political movement.
Miss Addams' political activity caused
Mrs. George Howard Lewis, of Buffalo,
N. Y.. to prepare an amendment to the
constitution directing that all officers
and members of the association shall
r-a.iT! tain a. strictly non-Drttsan atti
tude toward all political parties unless
they come from states where equal suf
frage is in torce.
It was the opinion of the delegates
from Illinois and from other states In
the Middle West, when they arrived to
attend the convention, that the opposi
tion to Miss Adams had gathered such
force that there was da,nger the amend
ment would be adopted and that Miss
Addams would be censured.
Mrs. Lewis' Campaign Vigorous.
Most of their work this" week has
been In organizing to protect Miss
Addams. The campaign which Mrs.
Lewis waged was tireless and sweeping.
It was known that she had obtained
the support of Mrs. Oliver H. P. Bel
mont, and It was thought by members
of the Illinois delegation that the prom
inent officers of the association and in
fluential leaders In strong Eastern del
egations were In the movement aimed
at Miss Addam3. Mrs. Lewis was not
present when the issue finally came
before the convention today, but was
represented by Ida Hewster Harper, of
New York. Mrs. Belmont was also pres
ent, but withdrew when the amendment
was defeated.
Mrs. Lewis prefaced her attack upon
Miss Addams with the remark that she
had taken off her gloves and had
rolled up her sleeves, and that she
would throw her hat into the ring
were it not for the hatpins. She de
clared the question to be the most Im
portant ever raised In a woman suf
frage convention. The convention for
the first time In 43 years, she said, was
confronted with the question of Its
officers affiliating with political
