14 THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 15, 1907. " V COUNCIL INTO WHIPS ITSELF VERBAL INFERNO fists nnd Words Lash Chamber Into 'Temperature Mile ' and Half Above Jllood Heat Due to Debate on Veto of Ordinance to Pay the Deposed Sleuths. 'In turmoil of vituperation. banaluK f flata. buffoonrrr and profanity In Wtilch several member paaaed th lie and nearly ram to M'wa. tha liy council yeeterday unanimously voled l sustain Maynr Lane's veto to tha ordl .Banc appropriating money to pay tlx Mlary of four dlachargad detectives. Opposing -unrllmn completely re llOuncvd their former action, when tiny passed Itio ordinance on a atrlct party vats, and 'laid down" quietly with no ether excuse thin to any tUry wished to call tha mayor a ' I'luff ' What they meant by "bluff waa nrobablv art forth In a remarkable doe ument read by Councilman Iiennatt. who wound up a long harangue by saying: "Tha mayor la endeavoring to gain political prestige through pura bluff la telling tha peopla what ha would do. aad by Impugning tha mollvaa of tha council, t believe It la high lima to call Ma 'bluff by sustaining hla veto, and thereby y it's up to you.' " Tha action of tha councilman waa tha rtault of a well-laid political plot atrhed Monday whim tha councilman decided that tha only way to cat "from under" thalr previous blunder waa to act In accord with the mayor, while tenting to differ from hla vlewa. Bennett accordingly drafted hla re markable speech which ha read from manuacrlpt yeeterday and tha raat fell la Una without other explanation than they wiahed to "are what tha mayor waa going to do about It" Beaeaahlea Mm Tight. Perhapa never befora have membera of tilt city council engaged In auch bit ter controversy aa marked tha war of word a in which Vaughn and Will played the leading rolea, ably asslstea by Jienneu. ceiiara ana ninfr. wnuu nearly avery member "explained" hi vote, none of them Indulgad In tha per onalltlea that marked tha dialogue be tween Wllla and vaugnn. iso language ", waa too strong for them and Council man Conoannon aroaa and objected to their conduct In tha meantime Mayor Lane waa rap ping for order and endeavoring to atay tha flow of words spouting from Wllla. Twlca he pounded on hla Jeak with the Civel and till Wllla kept on. Not until ayor Lane waa leaning far over to ward the obdurate councilman and rain ing bla voice above the turmoil of sound that aroae from all aldea did hla honor gain anything Ilka maatery over the . situation and even then Wills Insisted on having tha laat word by aaylng, "I have a right to apeak. Keep your Democratic friends quiet or I will keep them quiet for you. This called forth a reply from Vaughn who dared Wllla to try keeping hlra quiet Wills then turned on Vaughn and said: "If you aay that I voted to pay Mac donald any salary, Mr. Vaughn. I aay you He." Hera Mayor Lane Insisted on order and the atmosphere cleared considerably when his honor referred to the powers of tha policemen sitting in the chamber. Wills finally wound up hla remarka by aaylng the language uaed by the mayor In hla veto waa Indecent. Wills' reference to Macdonald came about through an utterance of Vaughn who drew a parallel In tha appointment ' of Macdonald aa clerk of the municipal court, which waa declared Illegal bv tha courts, to the action of the council la tha case of tha detectives. -Vaughn declared that Wills had voted to employ Macdonald and pay hla salary and called for the city records to sus tain him when Wills denied the allega tion. Mayor Lane called on Deputy Auditor Gautse whose reply bora out Vaughn's contention. Bennett SxpUlaa Teto. The councllmanlo npheaval came about Immediately after Councilman Bennett read his speech. As soon as Auditor Barber read tha mayor's veto message, Bennett waa on his feet and paid he wiahed to- explain hla vote. He then commenced reading from a closely typewritten manuscript If Councilman Hrnnett reviewed tha raae. letting forth all tha arguments which tlw ootiiu llmrn have uaed from tln time the rletecila were discharged until tha courla di-cul-d In their favor. All "f the old arguments which have hern eel forth In i rlni from time to time, arre lined by llenneit. In addition he took ocraalon to "roast" Mayor Lane at etate.1 Interval In hla apem-h He said that Mayor Lan rtlarharm.il tha rietecllvea for the PU poaa of n y lnar off rolltUal debta of th mayor w ith tba people a money and violation of the charter " At the conrhmlon of Hennett'a speech Mavor Lane aald.

One amus Ing feature was In the vote of Council mnn Melding, who at rived after tha wa waa over. All the votea had been taken but not announced, iieldlng waa aeated In the ar of the council chamber talking to friend and did not know what had oc cur red. When Mayor Lane asked Raiding he wiahed to vote, the councilman looked around In a bewildered sort of way and asked wha It waa all about Councilman ilaker walked over to Beld ng and Inatructed him to vote no. Zesotara for OonaollmeB. Without demanding any explanation or knowing wnat he waa voting lor, Ileldlnc shouted no and everybody laugnea. After the votes had been cast and the veto sustained. Mayor Lane aroaa and gave the councilmen a lecture on ho to conduct themaalvea lie deplored the feeling which had been displayed and aald that In the future he would not permit It to go on as It did yesterday He did not mines words and several of tha councilmen were noticed to squirm in tneir sests as uia mayor continued. Councilman Maker then aroaa and moved that In the future all debates be limited to four mtnulee. Tha motion waa evidently aimed at Councilman Vaughn but hit several of the others, Including Baker himself, and a amall de bate followed. Tha motion waa Anally pasaea. nowever.

(Sperlal Dlapateh to Tba Journal.) Walllsvllle, Texas.. Dec. 11. The re cent shifting of the bed of the Trinity river at a point a few miles above Pa cific haa solved the mystery of the dis appearance of a British yacht, which has been missing for seventy years. The hull of this vessel has been i brought to light, and upon the deck are tnree Grass cannon oI ancient pattern. The discovery of the vessel waa made by John M. Sparks, a well known citi sen of Nacogdoches, Texas, who was making a trip down the river when his attention was attracted to the wreck. A rise in the river washed away the sand which had covered It for nearly j three quarters of a century. The Im portance of the discovery lies in the fact that according to tradition the I hulk of the yacht contains English gold coin to the amount of $150,000. The yacht was said to have been char tered by the Mexican government to bring arms, ammunition and money to Banta Anna, ror use in nia campaign against the Texans in the war which finally gave Texas ner freedom. The versel was proceeding up the Trinity rivnr when it struck a shag and waa butik. xnu vi uiTcra auiu crew or tne vessel were said to have joined Santa Anna ana were an killed a few days later In the battle of San Juan. Sparks claims whatever treasure the vnssoi may contain Dy right of discov ery. WOEKEES OX PEOJECT ALLEGE PETTY GRAFT (Special Dispatch to The Joarnal.) North Yakima, Wash., Dec. 11.
