Delegates to Christian Endeavor Convention.
Nearly 100 delegatss are la the city
attending- the Christian Endeavor dis
trict oonvent Ion which has been la es
Mon since Friday evening at the First
Congregational church. Many good
speakers have been engaged for the ses
sion and a very profitable convention
has so far developed. The theme for
the entire three days has been "A
Larger Vision; the Inward Look, the
Outward Look, and the Upward Look.
and tha meetings of the convention have
been vary wall attended.
Yesterday Charles A. Shaw opened the
arternoon discussion with "Our Oppor
tunity aa a topic and dwelt at length
with the opportunities opened through
Christian Endeavor work. Ha waa fol
lowed by E. S. J. McAllister, who de
livered a atrong address on "The Plat
form Upon Which the Christian Cltisen
May Stand.
i ha majority is wrong." said Mr.
McAllister, "M times out of 100, and
the minority Is always right." An ex
tended study of economics and sociology
has led Mr. McAllister to the conclusion
that conservatism never wins, and those
who have accomplished results. Ilka
lean Hues. Savonarola and Martin
Luther, have always bean In a decided
Minority.
Rev. J. E. Snyder of Vancouver spoke
of the "Responsibility of Soul Winning,"
and said that the greatest Joy of ths
Christian life waa found in the consola
tion of having- saved some lost soul, and
tea Endeavorer should strive to estab
lish a high standard by which ha can
demonstrate tha efficiency of the life
he la living and make the desirability
of the Christian life aelf-appaseat
"The Call ta the Missionary Service"
was ably handled by Rev. Cephas Clapp
of Forest Orove. In his usual enter
" taialng manner he portrayed to the as
sembly the work of the missionary de
partment of the Christian service
The afternoon session was followed by
a short business meeting In which of
ficer for ths ensuing- term of two years
were chosen, aa fellows: President, C. A.
taver of Portland; first vice-president.
Rev. D. A. Thompson of Sell wood; second
vice-president, Louis Adams of Oregon
City; third vice-president, Robert L.
Ssaur of Astoria: secretary. Miss Ruth
Simpson of Portland: treasurer. J.' A.

shlp committee, O. E Baker, all of Port
land; superintendent of Junior work.
Mrs. A. H. Burkholder of Fulton Park.
and press agent. Miss LUsle Farmer of
Portland.
The aeed ef mere support for the
Nprthwest Endeavorer waa discussed and
this publication will have to be discon
tinued If financial aid la not soon forthcoming.
The evening program waa opened with
a vocal solo by Miss CI eland, after which
Rev. Paul Rader discoursed on the "Up
ward Look," the evening topic Wil
liam Shaw waa delayed by a late train
and arrived only In time to direct a
few well-selected remarks not altogether
complimentary to Seattle, from which
place he bad Just come, by way of In
troduction to his Portland audience,
which he will address this evening. Ob
account of this circumstance Mr. Radar
was given the entire evening and used
his time to advantage
According to Mr. Radar, attention Is
the chief requisite of life; men are needed
to lead, not to push: looking upward Is
not stargaslng, but striving for e goal.
emulating character and accomplishment.
Work and preparation Is the great thing
which alone will lead to success and
Mr. Radsr wished these sentiments to
be applied to the Christian Endeavor aa
a body aa wall aa an Individual admoni
tion.
When Mr. Shaw had delivered his re
marks the aasembly retired to the, committee-rooms,
where a social meeting
was held and the delegates were per
sonally made acquainted with the dls
tlngulshed visitor. This evening Mr.
Shew wilt address the congregation at
the First Congregational church and It
la also expected that Rev. F. Burgette
Short will make an address, as he was
no able to speak yesterday on account
of being 111 at that time

night Secretary Hall announced that the
labor boycott will continue until the
present waterfront trouble is settled.
Until that tlms a vaat majority of tha
100 members of No. ! will remain

kinds of labor. Tha amount of ship
ping that will actually be affected la
almost tremendous.
The vessels that will be immediately
effected are the British bark Oslgate,

the Eastern Western Lumber com
pany; the French berk Jaoobsen, dls

from Antwerp at Greenwich wharf; the

The repeated requests of representa
tives of the Exporters' association for
a larger police guard at the various
docks caused Msyor Lane to call a con
ference et hta office late yesterday i't
ernoon of representatives of both the
exporters end the Waterfront FeO.-s
tlon. J. Couch Flanders. Captain Brown
and E A. Pattulo for the former and J.
A. Medsen. P. D. HaU and Oscar Melby
for the letter.
The exporters declared that they need
more policemen end that thsy also wsnt
policemen detailed as escorts for strike
breakers passing from one dock to an
other. The unionists asserted that no
policemen ere needed on the docks at
all, that it la a renection on ineir ciu
aanshlD that policemen should be sta
tioned there. They said that the strike
has so far been conducted in an en
tirely peaceable manner and that 'the
rank and file has promised not to In
dulge In any violence whatsoever. They
Insisted, however, on tneir ngnr to
speak to passing strike-breakers snd
urge them to quit their Jobs.
After his visitors had one the mayor
conferred with Chief of Police Grits
rancher. Later he stated that he had
not aa yst decided what action he will
take In the matter.
Frank A. Spencer, manager of the
firm of Allen Lewis, In an interview
yesterday, characterized the action of
the Federated Trades Council In plac
ing the Arm of Allen Lewis on the
unfair list aa extremely unjust.

worry to Waahlngton county officials,
relented sufficiently to express her be
lief In Perry e guilt and at the same
time gave her reasons for her belief.
Her testimony may be sufficient to con
vict her husband's slayers.
Aa a result of their efforts to extort
.the woman's story from her. officials
last night declared that they bed by no
means ended tneir Investigation
Thpugh no official statement waa given
out with reference to what transpired
during the secret session, it IS states
that a warrant le to be issued for
Perry's srrest. It is also said that in
structions were wired to Kansas City
last night to prevent his escape rroaa
that city, If he has not already de
parted.
'This firm tins nothing whatever to
do with the exporting business," ssld
Mr. Spencer. 'The Colurabls docks are
owned by the Lewis estate, which Is en
tlrelv dletlnct from this firm. The di
rectors of this firm sre not the direc
tors of the Lewis sstete, and therefore
can In no way direct the actions of the
Lewis estate In this strike trouble This
firm has always been kindly In its at
titude toward labor.'
The boycott aaatnat the stevedoring
firm of Brown A MeCahe by the long
shoremen will probably cause a hard
ship to fall on a number of building
contractors because many of the ves
sels now In ths harbor are laden with
cement for which the contractors have
been psttently waiting for some time.
There are approximately 50,000 bar
rels of cement in the holds of the ves
sels that arrived from Europe during
the past week end none ef these ves
sels have yet discharged meeh of their
freight.
The Intention waa to have these ves
sels rushed through ss quickly as pos
sible In order to set the cement reedy
for delivery on the various docks but
ths step taken by the longshoremen last
night will orevent this unless the im
porters succeed in securing nonunion
men to discharge It or make srrange-
rosnts with the union men to handle the
cargo without the assistance of Brown
MtCebe Possibly the sailors will
be put to work handling the cargo
the ship's bold to the wharf.
The widow of ths murdered man also
expressed her belief thet -Perry had
left Ksnsas City on reading the news
paper accounts of the crime and his al
leged connection with it. She declared
the statement that Perry waa Snyder's
cousin waa erroneous, saying thst there
waa no relationship between the two
men. He visited at their home near
Olencoe before the bank robbery, she
said, and had not been seen since the
disappearance of her husband.
In their efforts to clear away the
mystery surrounding ths double crime,
officers have been unable to establish
ths Identity of the other man who la
aald to have taken part in ths bank,
robbery and the murder of Snyder. For
a .time It waa believed that Leonard
Bell, a noted nitroglycerine artist, who
haa figured In numerous Crimea, may
have been here at the time. Informa
tion from Kansas City, however. Is to
the effect that ha, was confined In the
state penitentiary at the time of the
Forest Orove bank robbery and the mur
der of Snyder.
Officials who are conducting ths In
vestigation express themselves as fair
ly wen satisfied with the result of
yesterday's Interview with Mr. Sny
der. However, they refuse to state Just
what action will be taken aa the result
of ths light the woman threw upon
ths crlmea
A. L. Cooper, attorney for R. M.
Snyder, denlea that his client has sealed
the Hps of ths widow. He declares
that the elder Snyder Is desirous of
bringing the murderers to trial. Ths
Journal received the following from
Kansas City last night:
Kansas City. Ma, Oct II R. M.
Snyder Is out of the city. A. L. Cooper,
personal attorney for Snyder, also
Carey Snyder's attorney In the robbery
trials here, says he Is assured no con
ditions or restrictions were Imposed on
the widow of her telling the fscts as
she understands them before she left
Kansas City for Oregon.
Cooper and Snyder .talked to the
widow In Cooper's office before she left
Snyder Is desirous of having his son's
slsyer brought to Justice. Cooper says
that there was only one motive and only
one person who could hove killed Carey.
He wouldn't say who the person was or
what ths motive, but ssys the widow
can tell. The lawyer says Mr. Snyder
heard of conversations between Carey
and a companion In which Carey re
fused to enter into toe beak robbery,
although he was urged to do so,
Cooper Is sure Snyder didn't seal the
widow's lips before she left Kanaaa
City. Hs says that. If such restrictions
have been placed on her they must be
withdrawn

All of them were smaller than their

unwise proceeding to attempt to put to

It Is said tht the Upper classmen
of the, high school decided that while
Short was a studtnt hs was "too smarT
and thought that the best way to dis
