Washington, June 2S. Senator Mc
Cumber's amendment to the tariff bill
fixing a rate of $1 a thousand feet on
rough lumber was defeated today by a
vote of 24 to 44. Fourteen Republicans
voted for McCumber's proposition to
lower the rate to 11 per thousand and 11
Democrats supported the higher rate.
MoCumber then presented an amend
ment reducing the differential designed
to cover the cost of finished lumber,
declaring the differentials In the Aid
rich bill were far in excess of the dif
ference in the cost in the I'nlted States
and Canada.
Senator Stone's amendment providing
for the free admission of hides, leather,

as to those above that was also de
feated by a vote of 31 to 48.
Senators Aldrich and Tillman en
gaged In a battle of words on the floor
of the senate this afternoon. Aldrich
read a letter from a firm In Vermont lrt
which it was stated that it cost $2.60
per 1000 feet to dress lumber on both,
sides with a tongue uid groove,
Tillman arose and shouted that It
cost no more to tongue and groove lum
ber than to dress it, because It was all
done in tbe same operation, and only a
little more steam wae required. Then
turning to Aldrich. he said:
"But everything the senator from
Rbole Island," says goes. The senator
Is the senate."
A hot exchange of remarka followed,
Aldrich commenting upon the delay and
urging that work on the tariff bill be
hastened.
Tillman finally declared the state
ment was untrue and that any person
who had ever been In a planing mill
knew It was untrue.

Washington, June 23. Consistent
with previous votes on the lumber
schedule, the northwest senators today
voted against McCumber's amendment to
make the duty on' rough grades tne
house house rate. $1 In place of the sen
ate committee rate, $1.50. which it had
been confidently predicted would be rec
ommended bv the committee and accept
ed by the senate.
The committee rates on lumber made
additionally valuable bv planing are. as
predicted, 60 cents, dressed on one side j ;
16 cents dressed on two sides; il.lZH
dressed on three sides, and 41.50 dressed
on four sides, making the average reduc
tion on rough and planed lumber 25 per
cent.
The lumbermen's representatives seem
to feel assured that the house will ac
cept the senate rates, at least they claim
It without reserve.

Tha fifth count specifies that Chap

drafts drawn on the Bank of Califor

face of the drafts showed a total of
$2168.27, and the books of the bank
showed that the cash for that day

by his father, J. L. Chapman, and Cur

The case of C. W. Robnett, bookkeep

L. M. Curl of Albany, chosen su

at Pythian grand lodge meeting at
Pendleton.
(Special Dispatch to Tbe Journal.)
Pendleton, Or., June 23. The grand
lodge of Knights of Pythias of Oregon
which has been in session here during
two days will llkelv adlourn late to
day. Portland will be the next meet
ing place. The great spectacular fea
ture of the session was the public pa
rade of last night, which was by far
the biggest fraternal parade ever held
In eastern Oregon and the largest and
most magnificent Knights of Pvthlaa
parade held on the Pacific coast in
recent years.
tne parade was over a mile long and
was led off by 40 mounted. armed
knights, the horses tobed In Klu-Klux-Klan
style, followed by a number of
floats and many footmen. Thirty dec
orated autos closed the parade.
Following the public parade a class
of 120 "Tyros," the largest clans in the
history of the order In this state, was
initiated to the dramatic order of the
KntRhts or Khorassan.

J. F. Reddy of Medford. receiver of the

pany, which has been filed tn tha cir

by a general auit for an accounting on
Devlin's part of .all that he has dona

If this is done a wide field will be

Claim was filed in the circuit court by
uooert u. smith, an attorney of Grants
-as a. iouis j. Wilde is the nominal
plalntifT, as all proceedings In the Ore
gon Trust matter since its affairs were
taken over by the German-American
bank come under his name, but tha pe
titioner ia Reddy. and Wilde la inter
ested in it only as anv one else who
has large interests In the affairs of the
Oregon Trust. s
Reddy'a complaint declares that Dev
lin, In his contract with the German
American bank, agreed to pay all law
ful claims that appeared in the report
of Charles B. Pfahler. accountant and
that Pfahler listed aa a valid claim
against the bank the certificates of de
posit of the Oregon Trust paid to
Keddy by George Bstes. who- bought
the property of the Medford & Crater
Lake road in 1907, This was after the
road was In the hands of Reddy as re
ceiver, the sale to Eates being author
ised by the circuit court of Jackson
county. The sale waa for $82,500. One
thousand dollars was In cash, and the
remainder in Oregon Trust certificates.
Reddy saya In his petition that he ac
cepted the certificates in good faith,
having no knowledge of the Impending
failure of the Oregon Trust. He com
plains that as receiver of the Medford
& Crater Iake road he is being sub
lecttri to rrent nresRiire. as claims have
been filed against it aggregating $100.
000, with no money to pay. If the Ore
gon Trust certificates could be realised
upon, these claims could almost be paid.
Reddy says he Is now greatly em
barrassed by a declaration by Devlin
that he will not allow the payment of
these certificates, and it Is necessary
that Devlin be required to allow his
claim in order that he may carry out
his trust as receiver.
The suit adds complication to th
affairs of the Oregon Trust and a bit
ter contest may be expected. Other
creditors whose claims are in process
of adjustment do not like the possi
bility of Reddy's success in forcing the
pavment of $81,500 for the benefit of
the creditors of the Crater Lake road.
On the other hand are charges of mis
management by Devlin that appear cer
tain to produce another suit that will
subject his work as receiver to the
closest scrutiny.

Miss Josephine Faber. erstwhile sten

whom a charge of forgery was lodged
last week and later dismissed, appeared
before the county grand Jury today to
tell what ahe knew aoout the indorse
ment of a check for $25 with the name
of C. W. Le NOlr.
What took place in the grand jury
room Is not disclosed, but several have
averred that Miss Faber, who is re
fined, with excellent connections and
the possessor of an education, con
fessed to them the extent of her con
nection with the forgery. She is de
clared to have stated that it was done
under the direction of another.

tlon with a contemptuous toss of the
head, is what caused him to shoot, ac
cording to the story Dlckerson will
tell. Jeffrey states that Dlckerson has
told him this from the first interview,
but Dlckerson, in his first interview
with others after the shooting, stated
that he did not apprehend that Garrett
was armed.
The preliminary hearing of Dicker
son is being held this afternoon before
Justice Bell. The defense will not
produce any testimony, merely finding
out what it can from the witnesses for
tne state.
Adiitional fads establishing the
truth of Dlckerson's suspicions regard
ing his wife are said to have come to
light by his attorneys. Garrett is said
to have come from Rockv Ford. Colo..
and to have broken up the home of the
man ror wnom he worked there while
his employer was sick in a hospital.
ii is nino siaiea mat evidence can be
produced that Garrett took Mrs. Dicker
son for buggy rides, that he drove away
with her on the day she deserted her
husband, that he boaMed about having
stolen her affections from her husband,
that he had made threats to kill Dlck
erson if the latter Interfered, and that
he went with her to a lodging house in
north Portland.
It will be claimed by the defense
mat enough or tlits had come to the
ears of Dlckerson to make it wise for
him to carry a revolver, that It preyed
upon his mind, and that when Oarrett
