and Best Efforts Pledged to
City's Upbuilding.
Mayor Baker will be a candidate
for re-election. Ke announced his
intentions to seek a second term In a
statement issued yesterday afternoon.
The mayor's decision resulted from
the presentation recently of a petition
signed by substantial men and women
of every profession, trade and business
in the city urgins that he be a candi
date and requesting an answer to the
petition in the form of an announce
ment of such candidacy.
Immediately following this petition
personal letters urging the mayor
again Ho be a candidate poured into
his office. Resolutions' adopted by
organizations, personal calls from bus
iness men and pleas from represen
tatives of labor, civic and fraternal
bodies reached the mayor, indicating
a general demand that he enter the
mayoralty campaign for the Novem
ber election.
Plans. far Future Changed.
In his statement issued yesterday
the mayor said that his decision to
seek re-election necessitated a com
plete change In his plans for the fu

The mayor's announcement follows:
"As a result of the petition recent
ly presented requesting me to become
a candidate to succeed myself in the
office which I now hold, I have de
elded to run for re-election.
"No incident of my official life has
affected me more deeply than the
message of confidence in that peti
tion, and I am unable properly to ex
press my appreciation of the kind
things said therein of my work in the
office of mayor.
Honor Is Appreciated.'
"To me this petition and its pre
sentatlon would alone have made
worth while all the efforts I have
made to advance the interests of this
city as I saw them, and to fill worth
ily the office with which the people
of Portland have honored me.
"My decision to become a .candidate
for re-election involves a complete
change of direction and activity on
my part from what I had planned. It
is not the result, however, of a change
of opinion as to the inadequacy of
the mayor's salary to meet the heavy
financial drain upon any man who
holds that office. I had announced,
and I was entirely sincere in that
announcement, that I would not again

This recipe furnishes a meager sug
gestion of the scenes enacted today
on the White Star line piers when
Archbishop Daniel Mannix of Aus
tralia strode the gangplank of the
steamship Baltic to put Britain's or
der against his landing to the test.
A master at penning vivid pictures
of hectic moments would find that in
his most eloquent bottle of ink there
were no phrases sufficient for por
trayal of how the Irish of New York
today sped to their kith and kin of
Krin a message of cheer and to their
rulers in Kngland their hate and in
censed scorn.

For a time, indeed, it seemed that
serious casualties would follow the
few Jeers risked by English passen
gers at the rails as the archbishop's
tall form passed up the garfgplank
that took him out of America into
English "territory Forty long
shoremen smashed a passage through
the barrier of guards and clambered
up the ship's side to drub ft wealthy
coal exporter who had hooted and to
thrust aside with waist ribboned and
twisted askew the wife who valiantly
struggled to defend him. Only when
four detectives, reinforced by 30 po
licemen and CO pier guards, shouted
threats of death did the longshoremen
recede and with snarling grumbles
permit the couple to be shut In a deck
pantry for safe keeping.
But that was merely o,ne of a fast
happening fusillade of violence.
Eamonn de Valcra, "president of the
Irish republic," did not sp.il.

None, it seemed, in the wildly cheer
ing throng that engulfed the party
and the guard of police had failed to
attach at leaest a minv e strip of
most glaring gree.i to his apparel.
On the pier were twice the number
that was in the street.
It was a short way t the gang
plank, but a long passage, for the i
crowd would tolerate no hurry. Th y
bade the archbishop pause to speak
to them. But he sensed quickly that
ever, if the surging, perspiring throng
was hushed, his efforts to address it
would be o'ut-dinned. So. instead., he
responded with dignified smiles and
bows and waved his high hat, stop
ping to shake a hand or p- -- baby's
cheek.
For an hour and a half, as he stood
baring his head to p&udits, the crowd
on the pier clamored for a speech
from Archbishop Mannix, but the bed
lam was too much for the most pierc

bishop issued this farewell statement:

HART CONFESSES MURDER
Slaying Done With Sheriff's
Own Gun Weapon Is

LA GRANDE, Or., July 31. (Spe

Til Taylor, sheriff of Umatilla
county, arfB Jim Owens, Hart's prin
cipal accomplice in the jailbreak at
Pendleton last Sunday, -were cap
tured near Tollgate at an early hour
this morning by a posse; Jack
Rathie, who was attempting to flee
alone, was captured near Gibbon,
Or., and Richard Patterson and
Lewis Anderson, the last two of the
fugitive outlaws, were taken into
custory four miles southeast of Ka
mela by John McCardan and Barney
Devlin, sheepherders, both of Hepp
ner. Rathie was unarmed and was rest
ing on a hillside when he was closed
in on by a posse of six men.
Patterson and Anderson surren
dered to the two men who stumbled
across them, and neither .one- of
whom was a posse member.
. All were later taken to Pendleton.
Slaying Is Admitted.
The capture of the two half-breed
Indians was effected at an early
hour this morning at a sheep camp
on the Dave Johnson ranch about
six miles east of Tollgate. The men
were taken by a La Grande posse
which took up the chase in that sec
tion last night. Shortly after they
had been placed in solitary confine
ment at the local county jail, both
Hart an(j Qwens adrnitted their iden
tity, and Hart admitted firing the
fatal shot which ended the life of
Sheriff Taylor.
The capture was made at about 1
o'clock this morning. The posse,
headed by J. H. McLachlin of La
Grande, stumbled onto a sheepherd
er's tent house in the mountain sec
tion near Tollgate.
Perry Woodell, Arthur Firman,
Mr. McLachlin and R. E. Turner en

they did so they stumbled over a
body lying near the door. Flash
lights immediately were used, but
the man's face was covered and he
could not be identified.
The French sheepherder was
aroused by the coming of the posse,
"Have you seen any strange men
in this vicinity?" one of the posse
men asked him.
