court until Monday, when he will hear
the remainder of the arguments and
pass Judgment.
Day Killed VItk RJotinsr.'
Rioting was almost continuous to-
J day, from the time the company at-
- tempted to operate the cars out of the
. Brighton barns until they withdrew
cars from the streets at noon. While a
- riot that occurred at the Brighton barns
' this morning probably proved the most
serious, yet one a little later at Fourth
and Bryan streets was more spectacu
' lar. Small steel beams, barrels of plas-
ter and bags of cement were hurled
on a passing car from the upper floors
' of the (4-story building of the Union
. .Central Life Insurance Company.
The car was wrecked, but the list of
t injured comprised mostly men hurt to
' the extent of bruises and small cuts.
Crews and Officials Beaten.
; The crews, as well as the employes
of the company riding on the first car
i out of the Brighton barns were assault
' ed and beaten almost into insensibility
and three of them are now at a hos
pital In a precarious condition. Various
pother riots in which crews of the cars
were beaten or forced to flee for their
1 lives were common.
I Mayor Hunt asked Governor Cox for
troops after the riot at Fourth avenue
and Vine street. Receiving a negative
- answer, he reported to Adjutant-Oen-
- eral Wood, and late this afternoon,
' when he bad received no reply from
; the Adjutant-General, Instructed City
. Solicitor Bettman to file suit for a re
I ceiver.
' Police Declared Powerless.
Governor Cox. in refusing to send the
military here, said be bad information
that the police had not exhausted their
resources to prevent rioting here, and
1 In answer Mayor Hunt told the Gover
', nor that notwithstanding any informa
I tion be had received, rioting was preva-
lent In this city during the entire
Z morning, and that the police were pow-
erless to cope with the situation in case
anything like a regular schedule of
I running of cars was attempted by the
traction company.
Tonight the streetcar system Is com
pletely paralysed and the strikers ap-
pear content when this condition pre-
vails, but rioting has been Invariably
resumed when the company attempted
to operate on anything like an extend
' ed scale. .
Rererrerahlp May Bad Trouble.
In case Judge Geoghegan appoints a
receiver for the company on Monday
,' It la likely the strike will be soon set-
tied, as it Is understood the vital mat-
- ter now at issue between the company
" and the striking employes Is recognl-
- tion of their union. They have agreed
- to go back to work if the union is rec
2 ognized.
If the receiver Is denied the situation
. will revert to what It was a week ago,
' with neither side having gained any

quiet.

POTSDAM. Germany, May 17. The
marriage of Prince Henry XXXIII of
Reuss, and Princess Victoria Margarete,
of Prussia, only daughter of Prince
Frederick Leopold, of Prussia, was cel
ebrated at the new palace here this

The German Empress took charge
of the bride's ante-nuptlal toilette and

taken from the imperial treasury, only
for tho marriages . of Prussian Prin
cesses.
The grand chaplain of the court. Dr.

suits is the type for the majority." said
the speaker. "But we must arrange
our school system so that opportunities
will be left ahead for any Individuals
of marked ability.
"When it comes to the time that a
man on the street corner, without any
knowledge of existing conditions in
the community, uneducated In the
ways to meet the economic and social
problems which confront the state, per
haps barely able to read and write, is
able by the force of his speech and
example to hold up the appropriations
for the institution of highest learning
in the atate. then It is time that we
should see to it that every boy and
girl In this Commonwealth should re
ceive an education which will enable
him to cope with these problems of
citizenship.
Trained Leaders la Great Need.
"The fact, however, must be borne
in mind that the supreme duty of the
state, beyond raising the masses to
the general tableland of Intelligence is
to train leaders.
ti, nuMtioii is often asked: Is
training for leadership the business of
the state to educate the children of
a few?" If there Is anything that is
the business of the state, this is it.
"They cannot be left to private
schools. In the first place, the pri
vate endowment in the West is In
adequate, and. In the second place, the
private school, in Its demand for a
number of students, unconsciously
lowers Its standards."
The Kural School Problem of Ore
gon" was the subject of a paper by J.
C. Meurman. of tho United States Bu
reau of Education.
Mlasloa Is Fulfilled.
"The old district plan has fulfilled
Its mission." declared the speaker. "In
the work of changing our school sys
tem to conform with modern needs the
county and state superintendences
must be divorced from politics. We
must build up our rural high schools."
Professor Cubberly, of Stanford Uni
versity, made a plea for greater effi
ciency iu teaching. "Favoritism among
teachers must be abolished," he said.
"The principle of life tenure In office
or in the school is dangerous. A teacher
should be discharged the moment he
cannot handle his Job. We. should look
first to the Interest of the child and
not to that of the teacher."
John H. Lewis. State Engineer,
prophesied that the land would be
come a great iron and steel manufac
turing center, in speaking at the after
noon session, which was devoted to en.
gineering problems.
"The rapid perfection of the electric
furnace, coupled with the abundant
and cheap water power, convenient rail
and water transportation and the ex
pected influx of cheap foreign labor
with the opening of the Panama Canal,
will bring about the desired result."
declared Mr. Lewis.

n. Frank Irvine Hurt.
An injury to B. Frank Irvine, of the
Oregon Journal, who fell and broke his
arm while boarding the train In Port
land to attend the conference, and the
absence of A. E. Voorhies, of the Rogue
River Courier, prevented tho carrying
out of the programme for the editors
meeting.
The newspaper men addressed them
selves to a discussion of the cost sys
tem in conducting their business. D. C.
Sanderson, of the Freewater Press, de
scribed his remarkable success In
transforming an Insignificant country
sheet into a profitable newspaper. In
the evening the editors were banqueted
by Sigma Delta Chi, the university
Journalistic fraternity.
The women's meeting, held as a sup
plement to the general conference, was
largely attended by prominent women
from all parts of the state. The dis
cussion was divided Into three heads.
"What the Women Are Doing for the
State," What the University Can Do for
the Women of the State" and "What the
Women of the State Can Do for the Uni
versity." Mrs. Vincent Cook, of Port
land, presided.
DEMOCRATS LAY PLANS
COMING CAMPAIGNS CALL FOR
CO-OPERATION PROGRAMME:.
President Wilson Said to Approve
Joint Proposals of National and
Congrerslonal Committees.
WASHINGTON, May 17. Officers of
the Democratic National and Congres
sional committees today mapped out a
programme for active co-operation In
the coming Congressional and Presi
dential campaigns and placed it In the
hands of a joint committee, composed
of National Committeemen Palmer, of
Pennsylvania: Howell, of Georgia;
Sells, of Texas, Lynch, of Minnesota,
and Cummlngs, of Connecticut, and two
Senators and three Representatives
acting for the Congressional commit
tee. '
President Wilson has expressed him
self as being In symoathy with the
movement.
The Congressional committeemen ex
pressed willingness to co-operate and
will make their report to the full Con-'
gressional committee at a meeting to
be held June 3 or 4. Its five members
of the Joint committee will be selected
then. The permanent organization of
the Congressional committee probably
ill be effected at the June meeting
and a chairman chosen, for which of
fice Representative Johnson, of Ken
tucky, is tha foremost candidate. Chair
man Lloyd and Secretary Page, of the
Congressional committee, will confer
with President Wilson Monday, and
with a committee of Senators during
the week, regarding the proposed in
crease In representation of Senators on
the Congressional committee. It has
been suggested that the committee
should Include a Senator from every
state which is to elect a Senator In
1914 or which now has a Democrat In
the Senate.
The publicity work of the campaign
will be divided between the two or
ganizations, the Congressional commit
tee continuing to direct its activities
toward propaganda regarding speeches
and other matters concerning Congress,
while the National committee publicity
will take a broader scope and not du
plicate this exclusively Congressional
literature. The National committeemen
felt that they had a direct interest In
the Congressional as well as the Presi
dential campaign, now that Senators
are elected by direct popular vote.

LONDON. May 17. That the militant
suffragettes have taken the words of
representatives of the Women s Po
litical Union, who only a day ago de
clared their policy was to violate law
without resorting to physical violence
against persons as a sort of challenge,
was Indicated today at Cambridge,
where there was a radical departure
from the policy of limiting the actlvi
ties of the "arson squad" to unoccupied
residences.
The militants today made an attempt
to destroy a tenanted residence at the
university town. The fire was set by
an ingenious contrivance of clockwork,
powder and oil-soaked rags. Profiting
by the mistakes of the past, the per
petrators had' so adapted the quantity
of powder to the other inflammables
used as not to blow the infernal ma
chine to pieces when the fire was set.
This has been the cause of many of
the recent fiascos in the work of the
incendiary suffragettes and overzeal
may be said to have prevented many
a disastrous fire.
Today's attempt was made on a house
adjoining one of tl5e laboratories of
the university. The occupants were not
present and by the time smoke was
detected from the outside the blaze had
gained considerable headway. The in
terior woodwork was greatly damaged
and the fire spread to the laboratory
next door, only the prompt work of

Another canister of gunpowder and

ATLANTA. Ga., May 17. After three
days of business sessions at which
progress is believed to have been made
toward eventual completion of an or
panic union between at least two of
the three Presbyterian organizations
holding general assemblies here, bust
ness sessions of those bodies were tem
porarily discontinued today. Each will
resume active business sessions on
Monday morning.
Interest in the assemblies of the
United and Southern Presbyterian
churches today centered in the Joint
report of committees containing a pro
posed basis of union for the two or
ganlzations. On recommendation of the
committees, both assemblies agreed to
postpone consideration of this basts of
union until the convening of the 1914
assemblies.
Publication Board Accused.
Today's session of the United Pres
byterians was taken up by charges that
the board of publication has been un
businesslike in its methods and mis
leading in its reports. Dr. F. M. Milll
gan, new manager of the board, was
called on to explain the Increase from
$34,000 to $100,000 In the mortgage on
the publication building. He admitted
that methods, "wrong, but not crimi
nal," had been practiced. Action on
the report was deferred until Monday.
A novel feature of the Northern As
sembly today was an exchange of
greetings between Confederate and
Federal veterans of the Civil War. S.
B. Scott, of Atlanta camp of the United
Confederate Veterans, appeared before
the assembly and in extending an Invi
tation to the "Sherman veterans" to
meet the local camp of Confederate
veterans, said: "We will show you that
we can forgive and forget that little
misunderstanding which caused the
memorable fight around this . village
60 years ago."
