They found the men In rooms, the doors of which were barricaded and within which was a store of revolvers, knives, jimmies, daggers and guns as if In preparation for a big tong war. ' Immediately both factions in the Bow On tong, the old faction to which the suspects belonged, and the new to which Lee Tai HOI had been attached, be gan preparations for a lesral battle. The Lee Tai , Hoi faction, led by tha im- passive little Lilng Foo, secured Dan Matarkey as special prosecutor. The defense was conducted, by Chinese from Pan Francisco who retained Frank Freeman and John Logan. This arrayed the ablest criminal lawyers in the state in the case and no stone was left un turned on tha' one side to hang tha prisoners ana on we outer nana to save men necks.

On tha other band, the defense had nothing, excepting the allegation that L.em woon was not the defendant s name; that he had never been called that, and that he had a brother who re sembled him, and whose name was Lem woon. But from the dramatlo moment when the widow of Lee Tai Hoi hobbled over to where Lem was sitting In the court room ana pointing uie stick that she carried at his face, declared excitedly that he bad killed her husband, there was little doubt which- way the case was going. Every move made by the state's law yers, Mr. Ualarkey, Deputy District Attorney John H. Stevenson and J J. Fltcgerald, was objected to by Mr. Lo gan and an exception was taken to every ruling of the court. It was an exceedingly bard fought battle on both Ides.

Men with their clothing ablaze, writhing In agony, dashed madly out on the deck. Instantly there..was a concerted rush to the rescue and some cool heads sent In a fire alarm. Bosen Injured. The firemen quickly responded, know ing that there must be some men in the flame-swept hold, and went aboard the ship. Time after time they were driven back by the blaze, which soon spread to all quarters of the ship. A doxen of the firemen fell victims to the dense smoke. The longshore gang was made up of white and colored laborers, and most of them were unknown to each other ex cept by number. When, the eploslon occurred the flames leaped skyward and spread out over a wide area, and every person within a radius of 25 yards was caught In Its path. Scores of men, after recovering from the first shock of the explosion, rushed to the rescue. Repeat edly the workmen plunged up the gang Dlank trvlns; to save their companions. and in several Instances they were suc cessful. Edward Mooney. a stevedore, was the hero of heroes. He was on the deck of the liner when the first terrific ex plosion occurred. Mooney saw a dozen or more of the men at work in the hold runnlnar for safety. He realized at once that there must be other men who had not been so fortunate as to escape. The boss stevedore ran over to the hatchway which was belching flames and smoke like a volcano and sprang Into the fiery furnace to save life.

WARHORSES Contending that the ordinance passed by the city council at Its last meeting might be used by designing persons to evade the provisions of the olty charter. Mayor Lane has vetoed the measure passed defining manufacturers jptme.lt liquors. This ordinance was passed without a dissenting vote and was understood as a protection to the Welnhard brewery wnicn nas so rar escaped tne wnoie salor's tax. The state law prohibits wholesalers from selling liquors with in 400 feet of a public school and inas much as the Welnhard brewery Is across the street from the Atkinson school the measure was popularly supposed to be nimea so as to protect tne brewery. The text of Mayor Lanes message follows: "I return herewith ordinance No. 17960 not approved. This Is an ordi nance which defines and prescribes a license fee for manufacturers of malt liquors. "This ordinance If It becomes a law It seems to me would operate to give countenance to the sale of malt liquors witnin tne distance from public school buildings which is prohibited by the city charter, and might be used by de signing persons to evade its provisions in tnat respect. , "If It is the Intention to secure addi tional revenue for the city from the brewery Interests, the terms of the measure providing for eame should be drawn in such a manner as not to con flict with the higher law, else auch object might be defeated.

BURTON TO READ FROM EUR BEAUCAIRE (Continued from Page One.) today Is reform that has for its ob ject the election of United States sen ators by direct vote. It has five times been Indorsed by the national house of representatives three times when the house of representatives was Re- mbllcan. It was indorsed by nearly wo-thlrds of the states of the union and there Is probably not a state in the union in which It would not be Indorsed at any popular election and et In spite of the record made in the ouse of representatives and bv the various states, this reform Is rejected by a seven to one vote In a Republican national convention. Here are seven propositions uDon which the Republican party, in national convention assembly, has retreated from the position talcen by that party In con gress or from the position taken by the president.. What nave nooseven KepuDiicans to say? The president has awakened a spirit of reform within his party, he haa at least revealed to the world that there are reformers In the Republican party, can tnai spirit now te queued by a stand-pat convention? Millions of Republicans have enlisted at the presi dent's call , to arms and are ready to march forward; will thev furl their banners and turn back merely because the tiresldent acquiesces in the sounding or a retreat r Well Known Essayist and Litterateur to Be, Heard Here Saturday. Dr. Richard Burton, who Is to give a dramatic reading or Booth Tarklng ton's "Monsieur Beaucalre" Saturday evening, June 27, at the Unitarian chapel, has had i in New England and the middle northwest a reputation as a man of literature for many ' ears. While this appearance will be his introduction to Portland he has previously given lec ture courses at the California universi ties. At Seattle. June 17, he delivered the commencement address at the Uni versity of Washington. Dr. burton held ror some years tne chair of English literature In the Uni versity of Chicago, accepting a similar position at the University of Minnesota In 1898. His teaching work was inter rupted for a year or two, during which he served at a high salary the publish ing house of Llppinoott & Co., reading and passing upon all manuscript sub mitted -to them for publication. But the lure of the classroom soon called him back, where his popularity Is at tested by the fact that although his lecture-room accommodates 200 stu dents, the demand for his courses al together optional is so great as to crowd his room to its capacity, with a residue or students rringmg doorways and window sills, all eager to come under the peculiar charm and Influence of his inspiration. For his extensive and Intimate acquaintance with litera ture, his sympathetic Interpretation of all its phases, his Intellectual vigor, his goodfellowshlp and his wit help to explain this popularity a popularity by no means confined to the classroom. The Students' Dramatlo club numbers htm among Its most active and Inter ested workers and he at times assumes roles In their productions. Dr. Burton Is known not only as a teacher and a public lecturer, but as an author as well, having put forth a num ber or volumes of both poems and es says. His interpretative readlna of "Mon sieur Beaucalre," which he Is to give In Portland has been received by eastern audiences with tremendous success. In Buffalo the Commercial had this to say of him: "His fine voice and sym- fiathetlc Interpretation made his render ng altogether delightful, and the fact that he was able to hold an a vera a-a audience spellbound throughout so sim ple ana quietly moving a story was an evidence of his real power."
