PLYMOUTH. Jan. 17. An all-day
search by a fleet of torp-do boats, to
which were attached cables to sweep
the bottom of Whitesand bay, failed
tojlnd the sunken .British submarine
A-7. Whan darkness fell the command
ing: officer reluctantly ordered the ves
sels to return to their moorings.
Although hope of any of the, crew
being- alive was long ago given up
six hours being- the maximum time they
could breathe after the ship sank the
search will be resumed at daylight. The
search has been made more difficult by
the fact that the buoy which the parent
ship placed when the submarine was
missed, was driven out to sea, and it is
believed that the submarine itself
drifted and probably lies at a depth of
SO fathoms.
Many theories haveTseen put forward
to account for the accident. A-7, with
A-!), had been ordered to attack a de
stroyer with torpedoes. A-9 hred hers,
but A-7 did not. Nothing has been
heard of the A-7 since, and It is be
lieved that the machinery got out of
order or the men were overcome by"
gas.
Ttie submarine A-7 was one of only
three vessels of hr clasa remaining in
the regular flotilla. The others are
utilized as training boats.
Commander Symington, naval attache
of the American Embassy, called at
the Admiral i.y today to express regret
In behalf of the navy department.
Lieutenant Gilbert Molesworth Wel
)nan, who commanded the A-7. was the
nephew of Lady Molesworth, whose
death from the sting rf a wasp oc
curred on September 26 last, and he
succeeded to her Trewarthenic estate
in Cornwall.

EARLE LOSES FIGHT
Artist Must Face Charge of
Kidnaping Son in France.
AFFINITY ALSO TO BE TRIED
Offense for Which Painter Mnst
Face Court Is Punishable" by
Imprisonment First Wife
Causes Couple's Arrest.
CIIRISTIANIA, Norway, Jan. 17.
The Department of Justice today con
firmed the decision reached last Tues
day that there was no legal objection
to the extradition to France of Ferdi
nand Pinney Earle, the American
painter, and Miss Charlotte Herman,
who are charged with having kidnaped
Earle's 8-year-old sou from a school In
France.
Earle and "affinity No. 6," as Miss
Herman is known, are charged with
spiriting the boy from his school Sep
tember 9. When the artist and his
companion were arrested on complaint
of the first Mrs. Earle, the child was
turned over to the detective who
trailed the trio through Europe and
was returned to his mother, who, since
her divorce, "has resumed her maiden
name of Marie Emilia Flshbacher, and
lives In Paris.
Earle was assisted in kidnaping the
boy by Miss Herman. He had a several
days' start, but his former wife lost no
time in getting after him as soon as
she learned of Harold's disappearance.
Clews were followed as far as Rus
sia and to American and Canadian
ports. Several ships, on landing in
New York and Boston, were searched
for Earle. and then the trail shifted
again to Europe.
Under the terms of the divorce
granted his first wife in France. .Earle
was to be allowed to see his son, and
frequently did so. He also was to pay
over a regular allowance under order
of the court, for the child's main
tenance. The school Harol attended is only
an hour or so from Paris. When the
boy vanished it was found Earle's
Paris apartments had been vacated,
and Miss Herman, who had gone to the
school, ostensibly to learn French, had
disappeared. She had taken the boy
out for an auto ride and hurried him
to Paris.
In letters Earle's mother gave out
in New York the artist said he took the
boy because he was "half starved" and
otherwise mistreated In the school and
was forced to associate with children
of low breeding.
Earle's offense is a penal one in
France.
Earle has been married three times.
His second wife was 'Miss Julia Kutt
ner. His present wife, who has sued
him for divorce in New York, is an
Englishwoman, and they have two
children. Earle Is the artist whose
casting aside of his first wife for Miss
Kuttner won for him the soubriquet of
"Affinity Earle" and gave the term
"affinity" the vogue and meaning It
has attained In recent years. His home,
near Monroe, N. Y., is a veritable
castle.-
SCHOOL NEEDS ARE TOLD
Investigation at Training Depart
ment Follows Attempt to Poison.
The Immediate need of larger quar
ters for the Girls' Industrial School at
Salem, and the need for some school
for the training of parents relative to
the treatment and care of their chil
dren is emphasized in the report of the
Marion County grand jury, which, at
the instance of Circuit Judge Cleetou,
Investigated the condition of the Salem
Institution following the attempt of one
of the Inmates to poison the teachers
and all the girls detained there. Judge
Cleeton was sitting on the Marlon
County bench when the poisoning waa
attempted, and directed the grand Jury
to make a thorough . Investigation of
affairs at the gjjhool. A copy of the
report of the gnind jury reached him
yesterday.
Most of the girls confined in the
school, the report says, are not in
herently bad, but delinquent because of
a lack of parental training which could
be corrected if the parents were more
attentive to their needs. The girls
have improved, the jury finds, since
they have beer in the school, and much
good would be done if adequate facil
ities were provided for the proper seg
regation of the girls. Only 20 can be
eared for properly in the present-temporary
quarters, the report savs.
The work of Mrs. Esther M. Hopkins,
the superintendent, and her two assist
ants Is commended by the investi
gators. .
Isaiah Buckman's Funeral Held.
The funeral of Isaiah Buckman, who

Corby, of the First Universalist Church,

floral tributes were received. The East
Side Business Men's Club, of which Mr.

James W. Cave.
James W. Cave, of Hillsboro,
celebrated last Friday his 44tU
birthday and simultaneously did
honor to the 36th anniversary,
of his start as an agent for The
Oregonian. On his eighth birth
day, young Cave came into town
with his father and stopped at
the old office of The Oregonian
to see Harvey W. Scott.
"While father went down the
road to buy some hardware from
Thompson & DeHart, I stayed
and had a visit with Mr. Scott,"
Mr. Cave said.
"Sonny." said the grand old
man, "come across the street
with me: I'm going to buy you
a pair of long trousers."
"Well. Mr. Scott was as good
as his word and I was the proud
est boy in the state."
Mr. Cave began that day to sell
the paper. He had only 10 cus
tomers at that time, but has
many times that number now.
He is the son of the late R. Cave,

Treaty on Terms Pro
posed by Bryan.
GIFT LIKEWISE UNPOPULAR
State Department Will Have Trouble
for Pains, In Opinion of Ob
servers Who Note Growing
Opposition to Idea.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 17. (Special.)
The Senate of the United States will
refuse to ratify any agreement with
the Colombian government which puts
this Nation In the light of an apologist
for an act which made possible the
building of the Panama Canal. This
statement is based on the rapidly de
veloping opposition to the provisions
to tender a humble apology,
pared by Secretary Bryan.
Hannis Taylor, in his capacity as
counsel for the Colombian government,
is urging that the United States not
only should agree to pay into the
treasury of the South American coun
try $26,000,000 for the Panama strip,
but that It should further smooth Co
lombia's wounded feelings by an ample
apology for an act of the Roosevelt
Administration which was indorsed by
the Taft Administration.
Colombia Pat la Bad Llfcbt.
Men who have made a study of the
whole question and some of them are
Democrats and Senators assert that if
the United States committed a wicked
act in recognizing the Independence of
Panama, that act was morality itself
when set side by side of the action of
the Colombians when the United States
was trying to persuade them to grant
canal concessions.
Mr. Bryan, Mr. Taylor, Senor Julio
Betancourt, the Colombian Minister,
and Senor Roberto Ancizar, the Co
lombian diplomatic agent, are still con
ferring on this subject, but it is vir
tually assured now that In a day or
two the United States Senate will be
asked to pay the Colombian govern
ment $25,000,000, and with the payment
to Render an humble apology.
Treaty Contemplates Apology.
Mr. Bryan ana his colleagues of the
State Department have put these mat
ters into the form of a treaty with
Colombia. It ts predicted that the
State Department will have its trouble
for its pains. Members of Congress
who object to tne preposal do not like
the idea of paying -a huge sun- of
money to a government which once
refused to accept a like sum. The re
fusal, they assume, was based on ava
rice, the Colombian government think
ing it could hold up the United States
Government for more.
There are Republicans In the Senate
whose personal and political relations
with Theodore Roosevelt are not
warmed by affection. Reluctance is
shown among them, however, to vot
ing a gift of $25,000,000 to the Colom
bian people. But the apology is said
to be more repugnant to a majority in
Congress, irrespective of party affilia

EX-MARKET INSPECTOR IS HELD
FOR GRAFT BY GRAND JTCRY.
North End Protection Fund and Inter
state Bridge Bribery Allega
tions to Be Probed.
One indictment charging Joe F.
Singer, ex-market inspector during the
Rushlight administration, with "threat
ening to injure the property of another
with intent to extort pecuniary ad
vantage," was returned yesterday by
the grand jury. The jury will continue
its investigations into the reported
"protection fund," which it was planned
to raise several years ago among the
habitues of North End resorts.
The indictment of Singer grew out
of a transaction with Tim Pearson, of
the Pearson-Page Company, during
which Singer is charged with having
threatened to condemn a carload of
fruit held by the commission firm,
which he Is alleged to have said would
be passed if a loan of (100 could be ne
gotiated. The graft investigation was begun
following the testimony of Harry Har
ris that operators in the North End
underworld were to raise a protective
fund of $150,000 a year. Following his
conviction on a vagrancy chrfrge, dur
ing the trial of which he gave the tes
timony, he skipped out and his bond
of $500 was declared forfeited.

gating the graft charges relative to the
underworld will hear evidence reeard-

Democrats Refuse to Create
Committee on Suffrage.
CAUCUS SYSTEM BLAMED
Congressional Union Adopts Resolu

Association Jader Says
Fight Will Continue.
W A SHTTNGTO JT, Jan. 17. The ma
jority members of the House rules
committee today decided against the
creation of a standing committee of
the House on woman suffrage. The
decision landed liko a bombshell in
the, ranks of National suffrage leaders
gathered here. Both the Congressional
committee of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association and the
Congressional Union for Woman Suf
frage have been pressing the Question
but a radical difference of opinion be
tween the organizations was indicated
by the comments tonight.
The Congressional Union, at a meet -
ing hurriedly called, adopted unani
mously a resolution declaring that the
meeting "regarded with indignation"
the action of the Democratic members
of the rules committee refusing to con
sider "the Justice and expediency of
extending self-governing institutions
to women."
Mrs. Antoinette Funk, lobby member
of the suffrage association, took ex
ception to the attitude of the Con
gressional Union.
"I am fearful lest the avowed policy
of the union to strike at the Demo
cratic party as a whole," she said, "and
to make war on Democratic members,
regardless or the friendliness or un
friendliness or their willingness to vote
for or against suffrage legislation, may
have contributed to this most regret
table situation. It 13 the intention of
our committee to remain entirely non
partisan and to support at primaries
and elections such National officers as
show a friendly disposition toward us,
and never to oppose any candidate un
less he has ignored a well-defined sen
timent for suffrage among his con
stituents." Mrs. Funk said that under the caucus
system four members of the rules com
mittee had been able to defeat the- will
of the whole committee. Assurances
had been received, she added, that a
reconsideration would be sought as
soon as possible by suffrage sympa-

Residents Will Give Order to March at

tf Necessary.
ALBANY, Or., Jan. 17. (Special.)
Idle Army No. 1, minus 19 deserters,
straggled into Harrlsburg tonight In
the face of a strong south wind and Is
spending the night In Linn County's
southernmost city. Her advice to turn
northward and return to Portland be
ing unheeded. Dr. Mario Equi, of Port
land, returned to Albany today and left
later for Salem.
Residents of Harrlsburg at first con
sidered a.plan of arming every man in
the city and preventing the army from
st6pplng there, but, according to word
received tonight by, Sheriff Bodine, It
was feared that they would prey on
neighboring farmers and cause them
trouble, so arrangements were made to
shelter them until morning.
The marchers will bo ordered out of
Harrlsburg promptly at 8 o'clock to
morrow morning and force will be used
if necessary. With the exception of
Albany, where the threatened use of
fire hose put tho army In motion, each
city which has entertained the brigado
has permitted the men to remain as
long in the morning as desired and us
ually they havo not started marching
until about 10 o'clock.
Only 58 men were with tho army
when it reached Halsey, a southbound
freight train last night having enticel
many. Dinner was provided at Halsey.
Dr. Equi came to Albany last night,
and, learning that tho army was
camped at Shedds, was driven to that
place.
