President-elect Tuft by his re fusal to take a hand In the contest, and National Chairman Hitchcock by his Filence, have put a quietus on the anti statement No. 1 movement, backed by Senator Fulton and his lieutenants, to ireak down the Statement No. 1 ma jority In the legislature and defeat Governor Chamberlain before that body. The Insurrectionists, privately, have thrown down their hands, thourh tn jiubllo they still look wise and predict mysterious things as about to happen. J. H. Brown, the most active of the Fulton men who have been working for the Fulton scheme, has returned from the east, where he witnessed the failure of his chief In the effort to gain help from the men at the head of the kov- rnment. Brown's hands are high above jus neaa, so tnose wno taiKea to mm say. ' '"What's the use?" says Brown. "There's nothin" doln'. Hitchcock . 'wanted to butt In. but Roosevelt and Taft wouldn't let him.

They are tak ing up the personal liberty slogan and beginning to chorus that every man in the legislature ought to be allowed to vote for United States senator according to the pledges he has given, uninflu enced and without pressure upon him. MoArthur to Quit. . C. N. McArthur, who has been the Fulton candidate for speaker of the house, has. come to the conclusion that Fulton is a "dead one," so the story , goes, and is willing, nay. anxious, to assure his colleagues of the house that he wants to and intends to keep his bands off any movement to break down the Statement No. 1 majority, or place ' any pressure by promise or place on Statement No. 1 men. He wants to get in the band wagon on an even seat with Bean' of Lane, who he considers has won an advantage by his ntatetrient that he would not allow the senatorial question to enter his fight for the speakership since that question had been settled by the people of the state in June. McArthur Is now willing, according to . the storv, to sign up an agreement with members of the house pledging them that he will keep his hands off the senatorial tight and not allow his of- flee or his official Influence to be used for the defeat of Chamberlain In the vent of Ills election. Talk for Bowarmtn. Bowerman's friends contend that Bowerman knows nothing of any plan tending to the defeat of Chamberlain. They say that lie has not meddled In the fight, that he. wants to be elected president of the senate and that if he were to be elected he would make "the best president possible." B. C. Beach Is about the only one left who believes that there. Is any hope for the anti-Chamherlaln scheme. He lias aent out petitions to I'matllla. Wasco and Wallowa counties, addressed to the representatives there and seeking sig natures of voters who will ask these men to violate their pledges. Beach's petitions, however, are meeting with the time frosty reception In eastern Oregon that was accorded them in Multnomah county. No one has greeted the peti tion bearers with cordiality, and in many Instances they have leen Invited to leave the premises. There Is noth ing stirring in the petition line. As a matter of fact the anti-statement fight has blown up even before nwarz : urvui.-n iJ to get a fine collection of big game, Ini idiilHlly their new pur- nHasts 8maller mammals and birds from s much to the Schwarz Ac rle"- Africa, and I believe the chance should iiifs Thev already own their , . . , ...m .!, llnh hnlri ninnt miirket location, together with a packing house In the rear and likewise the recently constructed Empire building on Webb street.

O'Brien general manager of the Harriman lines In the northwest contributed 11000 to the general Rose Festival rut)d, on neuair or uie muroaii lines in his 'lurfsdfctlon. this morning This subscrlDtion Is the same in amount as that which the Hill lines in this ter ritory mve. and in both instances the rail road officials -have commended In most gle ments to pay the expenses of myselr and son. But what I would like to do would be to get one or two taxidermists and field naturalists to accompany us and prepare and send back the speci mens collected. I haven't the means thnt w!uld enable me to pay for the field naturalists, the taxidermists, with their kits, and for the curing and trans porting of specimens for the national museum." He explains that he would desire to keep a few personal trophies, hut that the Smithsonian would get the bulk of the specimens. He says that as an ox president he feels that the Smithson ian Institution is where the collection should go. (United Press Leased Wire.) Calcutta, Dec. 17. Englishmen 'in In dla strongly suspect Japan of responsi blllty for much of the increasing unrest among the natives. In View of the. Anglo-Japanese alliance, the European press and officialdom handle the subject very gingerly. practically confining tnemseives to expressions or surprise at the growing number of Japanese tourists In the country and hinting that their Dusiness seems strangely mysterious. In commercial circles the situation is openly discussed, however. The tourists are boldly called spies. Japan, it is asserted. Is positively known all over the orient to be planning an eastern Asiatic federation under the mikado's domination. The present period of agitation dates, too. It is pointed out, from the begin ning or inaia s popularity witn the so- called Japanese "tourists Just after the Manchurlan war. The Hindus make no secret of their belief that when the insurrection which they are planning breaks out the Japanese will help thejn with men and money despite the alliance with England. The visiting Japanese generally call themselves students of Sanscrit litera ture. Buddhist archaeology. Indian art or Anglo-Indian governmental and edu cational methods. But native disorders, it Is declared, follow so persistently in their wake that the colonials say it is no longer possible to attribute trie con nection to mere coincidence. The Anglo-Japanese treaty is every where the object of the bitterest denun ciation, and what promises to develop into an organized movement has already been begun to bring pressure on the home government to abrogate It or at least to declare against its renewal at the expiration of the period during which It binds the two countries the heavy fogs that are a menace and Hindrance to navigation.

Marcia Dwyer, well known as a W. C. T. U. worker in the northwest, died in Anacortes yesterday of heart disease. In 1895 she was married to Joseph D. Dwyer, a rich cattle king of Raton, N. M. In 1897 he died suddenly while at tending the Inaugural exercises of Pres ident McKlnley. Mrs. Dwyer then re turned to Anacortes.

Modern Devices for the Reproduction of Sound Magnificent Display Now Being Madle By Eilers IVlusic House Prices Range From $10 to $500 What Choicer Gift Than One of These? The Only Place Where All the Makes May Be Tested Side By Side. Numerous display parlors at Eilers Piano House on Washington and Park streets are now devoted to a most wonderful display of the latest instruments for the reproduction of tone. To designate some of them as talking machines would not do them justice. The finest instruments displayed is unquestionably a new $225 style Reginaphone, this being undoubtedly the highest achievement as yet attained in the phonographic field. The marvelous Victor Victrola is shown in several superb styles; the prices being $200 and $300. Another instrument, shaped somewhat like a miniature piano, is designated as a "Symphony Grand." It possesses a most wonderful velvety tone and is priced at $2U0. An instrument known as the "Auxetophoiie," wherein an electric motor creates a powerful air current, which is forced against the reproducing diaphragm, thereby greatly increasing the volume of sound, is also displayed. This instrument costs $500 and is particularly adaptable for very large gatherings. Tne double-sided Victor and Columbia disc records are now being sold in large quantities at F.ilers Tiano House, as are also the latest achievement of the "Wizard" Edison, the new Four-Minute Edison Amberol Records. Eilers Piano House is the only place in Portland where all the best makes of Talking Machines and Records are shown impartially side by side, where yon can determine just exactly what you want, whether a $10 Victor a $500 Attxtephone a $225 Reginaphone or any instrument at a price within this range. All instruments sold on a weekly (75c or $1) or monthly-payment plan, if desired.

Deputy t'itv Attorney Grant stated that It appears that the city is out of court, alhough It may he possible to amend the answer On some other theory of the case. ' The answer that was held not to be good by the court set up the fact that the ex -detect Ives have had other post-( Hons since they were discharged by the city, and that some of them have earned more since they quit working for the city than before. It was claimed that under these circumstances they had sus tained no damage to their pocketbooks and that the city was entitled to an off set to the extent of what they had , earned on outside employment. 1 .ludre Gnntenbeln said that the au thorities are practically unanimous In. agreeing that where an officer Is sus pended and afterward reinstated he Is entitled to compensation for the time he was not permitted to work. As to the right of the city to deduct the sum ; earned in some other employment from I the amount due In salary there have been conflicting decisions, but by the! weight ol authority, said the court, the city Is liable for the whole amount that' the men would have earned had they! been working for the city every day in.; ueimnrer iu xne answer was therefore sustained. : ALL SlZdS.
