THE SUNDAY OltEGOXIAN, PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 9, 1919- RESERVATION FACTION WEAK E Chamberlain With Majority on Important Issue. FIGHT NOW NEARING END Stampede In Senate Soon Possible and Final Disposition of Treaty Coming Week Expected. OREGO.NIAS NEWS BUREAU, Washington, Nov. 8. Early disin tegration of the administration forces In their -opposition to the majority reservations to the peace treaty was confidently forecast in private inter views this afternoon with leaders of the original reservation group oh the republican side. There was much going on tinder the vurface today to indicate a breaking lown on the administration side of Vhe senate, and unless the White aouse gets busy over Sunday with a ew weak-kneed supporters the end nay come sooner than has been an--iclpated. k Hitchcock Makes Overtures. Early today Senator Hitchcock lade overtures to the majority side, iledging democratic support to the econd reservation relating to with rawal from the league if one change .'ere made. This was the change hlch was presented in the amend ' lent of Senator Nelson of Minnesota, : "provide that withdrawal from- the ague should be by "joint" instead "concurrent" resolution of con gress as the reservation now reads. The difference is that a concurrent solution becomes effective without te signature of the president, while joint resolution is a legislative act ;quirlng the president's approval to icom a Jaw. Fenotor Lodge, ma rity leader, had no particular ob-xtions-to making the change, bul could not be done without showing ' Ki faith toward Senator Hoke Smith, imocrat, of Georgia, at whose sug ;stion the committee on foreign af urs provided that the act should be y "concurrent" resolution. Wllwa "Slight" Protested. The objection advanced by Senator alson in a most dramatic speech iticislng President Wilson bitterly r his partisanship in other matters, it praising his course on the league ' nations, was that the reservation v presented to the senate was a light" to the chief executive. Itais- . g his voice to a high pitch he louted, "Let's not, for God's sake, y we don't trust him." Senator Nelson's charge that the ovision he was opposing originated .' i the spleen of fellow republicans is amusing to those who know that i author was the democratic een- .. or from Georgia. The vote on the . :lson amendment again demonstrat- I the perfect organization of the ; ajority by failure to enlist more an one other republican Vote be- les Nelson's, that of McCumber of orth Dakota, with three democrats, jed of Missouri, Gore of Oklahoma id Smith of Georgia, voting with , e republicans. The long speechmaklng of Senator slsb of Montana this afternoon, it - is charged by some of the majority i, was to delay further votes on e reservations until there was op Ttunity to bring administration essure on some democratic nenators . ported to be "slipping." Whether . ia is true or not, it is certain that ;veral additional democrats have ade up their minds to vote for res- - .vatlons there being at least s half . sen of these immediately in sight. Senator Chamberlain of Oregon 2nt over to the majority this after )on, as forecast in these' dispatches sterday, in voting for reservation : i. 2, with reference to withdrawal om the league. Every republican ited for this reservation, although nators Nelson and McCumber both rst tried to mend it, and democrats ipporting it besides Mr. Chamber In were Reed of Missouri, Uore of 'Alahoma, Smith of Georgia and -'alsh of Massachusetts. It was also inounced that Senator Shields, dem rat of Tennessee, would have voted r ft but illness kept him away. Treaty Fight IVear End. The votes of Senators Chamberlain ' ad Smith of Georgia created general irprtse and gave the first inkling of hat is ' surely coming. Senator hamberlain can be- counted on to upport at least three more reserva ions and as the vote'goes on several Cher democrats are expected to follow, .'he break away may be a stampede ,.j Tuesday or Wednesday and final disposition of the treaty during the roming week is practically assured, lthough today's sparring by Senator Valah of Montana has delayed it iomewhat. Front now on the course of the Teaty will be largely one of parlia mentary proceedure, which makes aiost uninteresting reading, but this much It will not hurt to repeat, the success of the treaty depends alto gether upon administration friends coming down off their perch at the right time and supporting a resolu tion of ratification carrying reserva tions. It Is a foregone conclusion that the reservations will be adopted. Then a resolution of ratification carrying the reservations' will be laid before the senate by the majority. Administration Most Act. Here is where the administration senators must afct or the treaty is lost. They have said that they will vote against it. If they do there are enough irreconcilable republicans who, voting with them, will defeat the resolution. Senator Hitchcock, administration leader, will move for reconsideration A point of order will be made against this from the majority side. If Vice President Marshall rules with Sena tor Hitchcock, as he doubtless will, there will be an appeal from the chair, which, the way matters are running now, will overturn the ruling and the treaty will be dead. It can onjy be revived by being picked up and reintroduced. It must then again take all of the tedious and tortuous course which has been cov ered since it was brought home from Paris by Mr. Wilson last July. It is therefore up to Senator Hitchcock and his followers to say what will happen. A republican friend of the treaty, who was active for months in the ef forts of the mild reservationists to reconcile all differences and save the pact, said today; Pride Mast Be Downed. "It is up to Mr. Wilson and the constituents of Mr. Hitchcock and several other democrats to let them know that they will not ctand for any trifling. These senators must swal low their pride and vote for the reso lution of ratification as It comesfrom . the majority or the league of nations and all els that is good in the treaty - will bo lost forever or indefinitely postponed." wjUh the treaty fi&h.t ia the senate fast reaching an exciting stage, all sight has been almost lost of the house proceedings. The house haa not been losing a minute in the last week, considering minor legislation, whil the committee on interstate and for eign commerce whipped the railroad bill into shape. This committee, of which Representative .Webster of Washington is the only western mem ber, has been working early and late to get the measure, one of the most important of the session, ready to be taken up in the house, Tuesday. Majority Leader Mondell said today that the bill would be passed by the house before the end of the week, and would complete the legislative programme adopted by the repub licans when they fook control of con gress in May. Then the committee report recommending the unseating of Victor Berger, socialist member pf congress from Milwaukee, convicted of sedition, will be taken up and. with very little debate, the report will be sustained and Mr. Berger removed from office. Immediately after this action the leaders of both houses hope to agree on an adjournment to give members a few days' relaxation before the reg ular session convenes the first Mon doy in December. This has been a hard session, which, coupled with the extreme heat of the summer, has re sulted in several deaths in the two houses and much sickness. The elections of last Tuesday are still being discussed for several rea sons. In the first place, the contest on governor in Maryland Is so close that neither candidate Id sure what has happened. Ritchie, the demo cratic candidate, has steadily lost in the official count, and today only had a margin of 127 votes. As there are few returns yet to be received, hia final majority likely will bo about 160 or slightly less. The most sig nificant feature of the Maryland elec tion in the minds of some politicians is that those counties in Maryland which run to the line of the District of Columbia, being, as It were, at the front and side doors of the White House, either turned over Into the re publican column or almost wiped out their former democratic majorities. - Now comes James D. Black, gov ernor of Kentucky, overwhelmingly defeated by Edwin P. Morrow, repub lican, and blames his defeat on Wood row Wilson, president and leader of his own party. He declares that the unpopularity of Mr. Wilson and his league of nations In Kentucky did it. PAN ENGINEER TESTIFIES DESIGNER OF ENGINE SAYS TEST IS SATISFACTORY. Witness In Fraud Trial Asserts Pandolfo Ordered Reliable Mo tor for New Automobile. CHICAGO, Nov. 8. Five of the new model Pan engines mounted on chas ses made good records In road tests two weeks ago, Victor Gauvreau, de signer of the engine, testified today in the trial of 13 officers of the Pan Motor company for misuse of the mails in selling stock. He said that Pandolfo had asked him to produce a reliable engine and a sturdy car with high clearance, low center of gravity and short turning ability and that this was- the kind of a car he did produce. Attorney Brower of the defense brought out evidence to show that the length of time taken to develop the Pan car was no longer than the time used in developing any other new model.

Is NEW HEARING PROMISED Officers of Portland Company Ac cused of Anti-Trust I.a,v Vio lation Out oa Ball. After 12 hours' deliberation the Jury in the case of R. P. Butchart and Clark M. Moore, the cement case which has been holding the attention of Judge Bean's federal court for the past three weeks, was discharged last night at JO o'clock, having failed to reach a verdict. Mr. Butchart, president, and Mr. Moore, sales manager of the Oregon Portland Cement company, had been charged by the government with vio lation of the Sherman anti-trust law. the government alleging that they had arranged with officers of other cement companies for a division of sales territory and establishment of prices. Officers of other companies in Washington and California, similarly charged by the government, had pleaded guilty and were fined $2500 each. The two Oregon men preferred to have the case go to trial, however. The Jury retired for deliberation at 10 A. M. yesterday and at 10 o'clock last night Judge Bean called the members down for a report. Foreman F. H. Dietzel reported a disagree ment of the Jury and individual mem bers expressed the belief that the Jury could not agree and that further deliberation would be useless. Judge Bean then dismissed the Jurors. The two men will be tried again, according to the declaration of Bar nett Goldstein, first assistant United States district attorney. Meanwhile they will remain out on the 10,000 bail which they furnished at the open ing of the case, it was stated. The case marks the conclusion of B. K. Haney's service as United States dis trict attorney, Mr. Haney's resigna tion dating to take effect at the ton elusion of the trial. The federal court will open again at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning for consideration of the case of the gov ernment versus T. A. Woodruff, charged with stealing goods on inter state shipment. Tho cae of Joe Riley and Dorothy Riley, charged with counterfeiting, will be taken up later. END STRIKE, U. S. DEMAND (Continued From Firat Pare.) President Wilson's denunciation of the strike and said that the struc ture of the government was endan gered by the defendants' 'Violation of the fuel-control law. Strike Declared Illegal. From that point the proceedings were pressed by Judge Anderson, who gave the attorneys for the de fense little opportunity to go Into legal points, which they tried to get into the record. He upheld in every particular the contentions of the gov ernment that the strike was illegal under the Lever food and fuel act and jaid that tho upholding of this act was the only question before the court. At one stage he indicated that the right to strike was not applicable to the case because none of the defend ants to the proceedings was earning hia living by working as a. miner, but he allowed the arguments to proceed on the theory that the union officials were proper agents of tha miners, carrying out orders given by their principals. Almost immediately, however, the court threw the discussion back, to tho wartime powers of the fuel and food control law and advised the de fense attorneys' not to. waste- time by argning other question. Judge An derson next stifled this line of debate also by announcing that tie was going to hold the Lever act constitutional and in effect until President Wilson formally decrees the end of the war. Law Marat Be Enforced. "This case," he said in issuing the injunction, "involves solely the ques tion of enforcing the law. It ia my absolute duty to uphold the law. which no man ana no body of men has the right to override. Were we to sub mit to even the slightest degree & contrary right, we would nndermine the foundations of the republic "The government is right in seek ing, to uphold its own laws and in asking its courts to aid it. These men have done an illegal act from which Irreparable Injury results to tha complaisant." The injunction, prepared by the attorney-general's department in Wash ington, repeated the restraining order of October 31. which forbade the Issu ing of any messages of "exhortation or encouragement" to the strikers and also tied up the union's relief funds. It then provided the mandate for cancellation of the strike calL Withdrawal Ia Ordered. The cancellation mandate follows: "And they (the defendants) are farther enjoined from,permltting tho strike order lsrfued on. or about Octo ber 15, 191, to the miners and mine workers in the bituminous coal fields of the United States to take effect on midnight of October 31, 1919. to longer remain in effect, commanding them to desist from aiding such a strike by permitting said strike order to remain in effect, and commanding them to issue a withdrawal and can cellation of said strike order .and communicate the same to district or local unions, committees and mem bers of the international United Mine Workers cf America, as fully and completely as the said strike order has been heretofore distributed and circulated to the said organization, its member district or local unions or any committee thereof." If left to pursue its normal course the injunction proceedings probably will rest until November 20. The de fendants have until that data to file a formal answer and when that time expires it ia within the province of the government attorneys to ask that the temporary Injunction issued today be made permanent. Miners to Appeal Case. It was pointed out by government officials that this was expected to re sult, inasmuch as Judge Anderson de cided the Issues in the case today. Attorneys for the miners indicated that they will take the case to the United States circuit court of appeals in Chicago at the earliest possible date. Such action, however, will not affect the injunction proceedings nor the government's plan to ask that the temporary injunction be made perma nent on November 20. In the mean time, it is pointed out. the court's or der to call off the strike must be carried out. GIRL PACKER IS FASTEST Miss Pearl gallzman Sets Record of 140 Boxes at Hood River. HOOD RIVER, Or..
