' Allied he had entered Into any conspiracy
4 , against the mayor. His direct examlna
i, tlon covered a very few mlnutea. ami at
noon the court waa listening- to argu-
ments by the district attorney on the
question of whether or not the state
hae a right to go outside of that dl-
rect story In getting at testimony given
v by other witnesses relating to Rad
' .ding's connection with the conspiracy
against the mayor.
Oare Up Her Child.
. lira. Waymlre was also on the a tan a
. for a ehort time, being the first wlt
Sess called after court opened. Fri
day ahe had testified that ahe and
bar husband had signed a contract in
JopUn, MUsourl. March , HOT, by
which the husband was to have the
- euetody of their child for two years.
Thla morning she produced thla agree
ment and after a good deal of wrang-
-- ling between the attorneys for the atate
. and defenae ahe waa recalled' to the
stand for more cross-examination. Not
much was elicited by the examination,
, though it was established by the state
- that ahe had algoed the contract Maroh
1 i. 107, which gave her child to the cua-
r tody of the father for two yeara.
Thla fact In all probability will take
a prominent par In the argument of
. me case as lenaing io snow tun ioor
. ' waa no reason for her trying1 to secure
r- poeaaaslon of the child In September,
and that therefore her representation
, of that desire to the mayor was not
made la good faith, but simply as a
v blind to furnish an excuse for visiting
his office and soliciting his aid.
- W. M. Bell, a watchmaker, and the
" acknowledged suitor of Mrs. Waymlre,

; " Frank 8. Bennett and John Annand,
two members of the council, were also
?iut on the stand to testify that In
heir belief the trouble had not dam
aged the mayor'a reputation. They so
-testified. Bennett said that the affair
was- looked upon as a loke and was
spoken of jocularly in the majority of
cases. He did not believe that the
reputation of the mayor had boen
harmed. Annand said that in his belief
" "the reputation of the mayor was no
j worse than it was before."

was not present the defense put Rad

oojeetion or Mr. Malarkey. who desired

' council, all of whom had been under

has committed a crime or these de

Mr. Logan said that he did not con
cider It a Joke but a very serious occa
sion where a woman was on trial for her
liberty. He promised to put the re-
later In the trial.
' Bell Bought the Orooerlea.
.. Bell In his testimony said that he had
tcept company with Mrs. Waymlre for
some time prior to September 26. He
then told of how he. Madding and Mrs.
. Waymlre had kept house on Fourth and
Montgomery streets, and how he had
paid for the groceries. He said he had
agreed to pay $8 a week for his board.
The witness told of his having learned
v, of the visits being made by Mrs. Way
mire to the mayor's office and of his
; having remonstrated with her. He said
she grew angry and told him her vls-
: Its were her own business. He had then
'. talked with Raddlng who had advised
him that if the mayor were to give her
' letter It might be of help to her In
getting the child away from the father.
i On oross-examlnatlon Bell was badly
tangled up by Mr. Manning. He grew
, angry and 'onfused. He said he took

following her trouble with tho mavor
i In order to quiet her and to find out
what had happened and then aald he
took hor there so that he could return
to JYn ih. i:.l and discover the cause of

(Wnblngton Barrto of Tb Journal.)
Washington, Feb. 24. The United

the Judgment of the Oregon supreme
court in the case of Curt Muller against
the state of Oregon, Involving the fin
lng of Muller for violation of the Ore
gon law regulating the employment of
females ln any mechanical or meroan

taurant, and restricting the workday
to 10 hours. Muller was fined by the
circuit court for Multnomah county and
appealed to the state supreme court,
where tha Judgment was affirmed. W.
D. Fenton arid H. H. (Jllfred appeared
for Muller. Tha deoislon quite broadly

The Baptist ministers ln their weekly
meeting this morning continued (he dis
cussion of laHt week on whether man
Is naturally the child of God or of tha
devil. A warm debate filled the entire
hour and at the close of the session
each retained his former views prob
ably ln eplte of the fact that each
speaker averred that his speech settled
toe matter finally.
Countless Quotations from scripture
calling God the father of man were
brought to bear on the one side, which
was chiefly championed by Mr. Lapham,
Mr. Schwlgler. Mr. Edmunds. Mr. Mln-
aker and Mr. Cook. On the other side
Mr. Monroe and Mr. Leonard were the
chief dissenters and Mr. Jordan seemed
to take a half way position reconciling
the two sides.
The debate hlnited upon the question
of infant salvation. One side held that
tho ntoneuient of Christ orgave the
Adamlo sin at the birth of the child
and that the child was in a naturally
(saved condition till it reached the age
of knowledge, when It could choose its
own way, when it could distinguish be
tween right and wrong and could make
a delihf-rate choice and bo be beld
responsible.
The other side maintained that every
child chooses naturally the wronar be
cause of the natural depravity of the
race descendant from Adam; that to
attain salvation and to enjoy the bene
fits of Christ's atonement one must be
regenerated, and that one Is not saved
till such choice la made. Mr. Jordan
held that the whole solution lay in
the correction of an error concerning
the fatherhood cf God; that there are
two, the natural fatherhood and the ac-
? uired fatherhood which comes later
rofn deliberate choice.
There was a good deal of argument
about tho scripture quotations. When
the fatherhood of God was auoted the
opposing side held that the "God Is
your rather quotations were addressed
to the Jews who had accepted him and
thus availed themselves of the atone
ment; and the other side held that the
"Ye are the children of tho devil" quo
tation referred to the deliberate choice
of Christ's enemies to serve the devil
and not to any natural birth ln thj
devil.
Adjournment left the debators in the
same positions.
The Muller case Is one that attracted
the attention of tha courts and bar of
this state several years ago, on account
of the constitutional question Involved.
Curt Miller, the defendant ln tha case,
was tried before Judge Sears ln tha cir
cuit court of this county on the charge
of violating a state law, which provided
that in mercantile esiaDiisnmenis, mo
torics, laundries, etc.. no woman should
be employed to work for more than 10
hours ln one day. Muller was the pro
prietor of a steam laundry ln which he
wonted women, wun meir consent, more
than 10 hours par day.
In tha trial before Judge Sears be was
convicted and appealed the case to the
state supreme court, where the Judg
ment of the lower court was sustained.
Muller's attorneys appealed the case to
the United states supreme court ana
made the argument that the Oregon
statute under which Muller was con
victed is ln violation of the Fourteenth
amendment to the constitution of the
United States. In that It sought to
abridge the right of a citizen to make a
contract.
The supreme court evidently takes the
view that women are not citizens in ine
fullest sense of the term, as It sustains
ln full the Oregon statute limiting their
right to make contracts.
Neuhausen Leaves Tonight.
Thomas B. Neuhausen, inspector of
the Interior department, will leave this

Railroad Work Suspended.
(United Praai Leased Wire.)
Guyaqullr Ecuador, Feb. 24. A fire in
the village of Daule, near this port, has
destroyed six houses.
Tho work on tha railroad henca to
Quito, which has been suspended by
reason or tna disagreement oetween tne
government and the contractor, has
Been resumed with a large working
force and new vigor.
Lucius Irons, whose home is In a
scow anchored ln the river about a
mile below the Northern Pacific saw
mill, reported to the police yesterday
that someone had attempted to blow
up his floating domicile about 8:30
o'clock Saturday evening. He says
that at the hour named some person
rowed up to the scow, attached an ex
plosive the end of the boat, lighted
the tuQ and rowed away. A minute
later an explosion resulted which blew
a hole in the end of the scow, causing
it to paniaiiv nil with water.

ness for more than 10 years and that
his business had been ruined because the
wholesalers refused to sell him goods
because he was not a member of the as
sociation. Mr. Oilman testified that
whereas his business In new furniture
alone amounted to 180,000 a year, he had
not been able to purchase $1,000 worth
of furniture slnoe the associations were
formed.
BeUerea Combination Exists.
Mr. Oilman said his credit had never
been questioned and replied that he al
ways discounted his bills when asked
whether the refusals to sell him goods
were made on account of his financial
standing. He said that many of the
men who refused to deal with him be
cause of the order Issued by the whole
sale dealers' association were life-long
friends, and named several firms whom
he had helped tide over ln times of
trouble. He said that he had a suit
coming up ln the United States circuit
court against the various associations
and dealers for a lirge sum which repre
sented the amouiu of his losses at the
time the suit was filed due to the re-J
fusals to sell him stock.
Lawyer i. P. Price, who at one time
was assistant secretary of the North
west Furniture exchange, an association
of wholesalers, was the next witness.
He stated that he did not know of an
association In existence at the present
time among furniture men. Both Kal
Ischner and Oilman testified that from
their experience they believed thnt the
furniture dealers had a secret under
standing among themselves to fix prices
and restrict sales.

Dr. H. G. Parker continued their visit
to restaurants this morning and found
several of them ln nauHeatlng condi

ington street and south on Fii'Kt street.
In all cases where filth was found
warning was issued to the owners to
clean up and thev were told that if
the places were not clean when the
health officers returned the proprietors
would be prosecuted. In no case did
tho owner refuse to disobey the in
junction of the health officers, and a
reformation for cleanliness can be ex
pected in the restaurants that will
eaual the purification of the Chinese
quarters secured by the same officers
several months ago.

Chinaman ln that quarter knows him

any of the Chinese restaurants or

The Chinamen have taken great pride
In cleaning up their places and, tho re

glorified in the cleanliness that sur
