: New Tork, July. 30,YVhen Mrs. Van
Valkenburg today hsd signed e com
plaint, for absolute divorce she permit
ted an interylew in , which she .was
quoted 1 as making a bitter attack on
her husband and declared that she had
at least, three unpleasant surprises for
her spouse, who Is scion of one of New
York's oldest families. She, is 28 years
his junior. ';. .
' "The surprise, concerns individuals,'
said "the J10.0O0.OO0 widow, , ss she is
perhaps best.known io-the, country, but
she refused to give names, , - ' , i
' "He does not realise what I know,
she said, "but he will have much" to ab-
sorb his attention when my $ut comes
; up." -'....:'-. ... :, ' .
Abandonment, penuriousness, brutal
ity and the humiliation of being; pressed
by mere clerks for such "trivial" bills
as 45 for a hat, are among the allega
tions set up by the widow of the multi
millionaire, William Hays ''Chapman,
against her present husband in. a long
bill in which the names of two women,
one of whom figures slightly in society,
are mentioned as attracting Van. Val
kenburg's rather divided attention, be
ginning within, a .week after- his mar
riage, .y .:''.-:.-:-; ,-y -;, .w .
M rs. y Van Valkenburg, who .' goes
abroad on Tuesday, is at the St. Regis.
It was there she was asked if the rather
impetuous courtship of General Spiro
dovltch and Prince Sonle might be re
newed following the divorce.-
"No. no, I will never marry again,
I might get another like Mr. Van Val
kenburg and have I not had mlsedy
enough? " ;
" "He'll suffer for this. ; My case
against him is complete. I won't give
any names but I'll have surprises at

attended and had not sent the minutes
of 'the previous meeting. The resolu
tion passed two weeks ago. calling for
the nomination of a county ticket was
read. Chairman .Gibson opened the pro-
ceemngs wun an address.
Gibson said that there seemed to be
a sentiment among a great number of
me voters of the county that the oon
vention was a blow aimed at the tri
mary law, that it was a gathering for
the purpose of throwing the politics of
tne county DacK into the, old convenlon
rack. He said that no man would have
the hardihood to go to the legislature
una attempt to amend the primary law
He was for the primary law. Gibson
said, but the assembly plan was the
only way to direct the operation of the
primary law -and get the ; best" men, in

M. J. Lee of Canbyaald that the good
men, of the countr favored organisation
and that the primary law was the refer
endum over the old iconvention svstem.
He advised the convention If it intended
to put out a ticket to go to work and
do It. If not for them all to get out and
run for office and make the primary law

a xarce. i.,ee aald that in order to find
out what the convention really wanted
. to do he would move that a full county
- ticket bo put in nomination. ..
f At this point H. W. Trembath raised
the( point of order that there was no
quorum present and that therefore the
meeting could transact no business. Gib
son declared Trembath out of order. .
JBeorge Randall also objected to fur
ther proceedings. He said that tho
meeting was very poorly attended. He
., was in ravor of the assembly, he said,
but be considered that it Would be very
poor poncy to nominate a ticket For
ine minority of the convention to take
such action, and, attempt to bind the
party would create dissension. , Thoso
wno were not present would turn the
nominees of the convention down,
l Feojjle Do Xot Understand.'
' 'C. H. Dye said he was in favor of the
i assembly movement The people of
Clackamas county seemed to have a mis
understanding about the movement, ho w-
, ever. y -. .... . . ... .-. , .. . .. ,,,
"It a small portion' of the party goes
ahead," he said, "and puts'a ticket in
. the field, when the majority are against
the plan, it -wiir split the nartv wld
npn. t I think the majority ot tne party-
'o vuuniy ooes not want the conven
tion and I believe that the minority
' ought to go home." -.. .
I Ij- Porter was of an opposite opln
. Ion. He said be did not believe that
thera was any evidence to show that
. the. people, of. the .' county did not want
a ticket nominated. He thbught that if
: a , good,, ticket , was nominated' that it
would be successful. -
Chairman Gibson took exception to
., tua language of Porter He said that
, would have to. ask the speaker to
irwdlfy his language. They were not
i there to nominate , candidates, , Gibson
said, but to recommend them.
Speaker Interrupted.' .
' V. P. Carter of Gladstone started to
upeak, but was interrupted by E. W.
. Bartlett, who raised a point of order!
' When the roll was being called he ob
. J-cted. Carter had stated that he was
.' there as a spectator and did not want
to be considered as participating in the
ronventlon., Therefore, Bartlett con-
tended, Carter ought not to be allowed
to speak on the floor of the eonven
' tion. Gibson came to Mr. Carter's aid
and he was allowed to speak. ; , y
"I was satisfied two weeks ago and
am still." Carter said, "that you are
selecting the best method at your hand
to disrupt the party in the county. I
lmve heard anti-monopoly men say they
would not vote for an assembly candi
date, and I have heard assembly men
1 sty that under no circumstances would
they support an anti-assembly man at
any time.
Wnt Party Harmony
"I am working foP harmony In the
jurty,. The leaders of this assembly

politicians and 'lawyers to . dictate to
them, you fellows go ahead and do It"
J, F. Clark tried to pull the ship back
Into calm and shallow water. , He intro
duced a resolution as an amendment
the motions to nominate a ticket. The
resolution provided that the, convention
adjourn sine die, declaring as it ad
journed that It was in favor of -the as
sembly, but that finding it opposed by
a respectable minority, the majority
would yield to the opposition and await
the educational advancement of the
coming two years when the voters would
have learned the true intent of the as
sembly movement v
: Party Should Qt Together.
X H. Revenue did not like that much.
He said he wanted to know when the
Republican party had lost its right to
assemble and talk things over. ; The
chief thing the American people had
against King George, he, said, was that
the monarch refused to allow, them-'to
assemble. ' Now, he contended, there
was a King George In Clackamas eoun
On ftae resolution to adjourn sins die
being put to a vote It was lost by a
margin, of 1 votes, the vote being S3
for the resolution -and 40 against it,
showing also, that only 73 delegates
were' participating In the deliberations
of the convention. . Then the motion to
nominate a. county ticket ' was carried
and a big bunch of the delegates who
did not think it wise to nominate a
ticket left the toll. , - y . "
.' ; Would. Pass Xesolutiona.' ,
Max Telford then introduced a reso
lution which, indorsed an assembly for
the purpose of drafting platforms and
pledging the support of thwjparty to the
ticket nominated at the primary, elec
tion. . The -resolution also provided for
a campaign conducted Strictly along the
lines laid down by the primary law and
condemned the nomination of candidates
by the assembly. . This resolution was
voted down,
The convention then commenced Ihe
nomination of candidates by chooBlng a
candidate for state senator.' EL W. Bart
lett and Lu D. Walker were placed in
nomination. , ' Bartlett destined to run
and the vote was made unanimous for
Walker, who Is assistant cashier of the
Bank of Canby.
: Hot JTominatlng Off loan..'
Again Chairman . Gibson warned ' the
delegates rto be ca.ref ul of their . lan
guage. The convention' was not nomi
nating officers, he said, but was rec
ommending them. He- did not want a
wrong impression concerning the intent
of the convention to get abroad. v
Three candidates for the house of rep
resentatives were next considered. ! E.
W. Bartlett was again placed in nomi
nation and again withdrew. Charles
Miller was placed in nomination, and
he withdrew. J. W. Exon, Dr. Hugh 8.
Mount and J. S. Toder were put in nomi
nation and did not withdraw. Frank
Jagger was put in nomination, but said
he- could not make the race, and ac
cordingly Exon, Mount and Yoder were
declared to be the unanimous choice of
the convention, t
JTame County Judge Tirst.
The first nominating ballot of the
day was taken over the office of county
Judge. J. ,F. Clark. Captain J. T. AP
person and C. T, Tooze were put in nom

son 9 and Tooze 35. Tooze was declared

they were -doubtful whether he would
accept the nomination.
, W. H-! Counsel! received 20 votes for
county commissioner, and. Nick Blair 81,
and Blair was declared to be the nom
inee of the convention.,- ,
IE, C Hackett was given the unani
mous nomination as the convention can
didate for sheriff, and C. M. Lake was
also given all the votes for the nomina
tion for county clerk.
; In. the nomination of a candidate for
cosnty recorder, I E. Williams received
-12 votes and Ed P. Deadman 34, Dead
man being declared the nominee of the
convention. ,
( So Contest for Treasurer.
J. A, Tufts was the unanimous choice
Of the convention for county treasurer,
and Dr. Thomas J.- Fox was given sim
ilar consideration in the selection 'of a
candidate for coroner. D. T. Meldrum
was chosen as the candidate for survey
or by all the votes, i i ?i y
; O. W. Eastham moved, as the conven
tion was closing, that the chair appoint
a committee of five, with himself-as
chairman, to manage the campaign for
the convention ticket, and also that Gib
son be empowered to appoint one man
from each-precinct to act as a commit
tee to fill vacancies on the ticket, if
such vacancies 'should appear , These
two motions were carried.
It was also moved to ratify the state
convention ticket but Chairman Gibson
said that would be a slap at Grant B.
Dlmlck, a fellow townsman, and advised
against the motion, so It was with
drawn. 'The convention then adjourned.

- War Clouds Lower. : '
. Early in the morning of the assembly
war clouds began to lower wheiWHoiu.
orabhs B. I. Eddy Introduced Hhe fol
lowing resolution: ; ;..;;
"Resolved, .- That this as'sembiy does
hereby ratify the list' of candidates
recommonded to the Republican party
of Oregon by the recent state assembly.
"Resolved, That this assembly ' make
no recommendations for county, offi
cers." - "
In explaining the latter nart of his
resolution he made the statement that
certain Roseburg delegates had gath
ered in secret caucus last evening and
had. come to the assembly, prepared to
put up a ticket of their own choosing.
"Suggesting a Hckety to. voters is In
Itself .a hazardous expedient." ,he said.
"But when men, after meeting In secret
caucus, come here to "dictate a ticket
it is not right and I do not think we
should lend ourselves to . serve their
ends. When we. countenance this sort
of action," he said, "we are going back
to old abuses of the convention sys
tern which resulted, in response to gen
eral demand of the people that these
things were not right in our present
primary law." , ,J
s In defense of his position he quoted
an Oregonlan editorial and a recent
UUmant .of Drndrw-rOtwtth: "

George Neuner,, Jr., assembly' candi

at thA caucus last night, but denied

Jackson, ex-state : senator, ' said he
thought a little i caucus , matter was
being greatly magnified, and couldn't
see any harm in it. any way. He offejed
an amendment to Mr. Eddy's resolution
toto
the effect that the assembly pro
ceed about its business of nominating!
candidates. . It being apparent from the
discussion that the assembly ' was
pretty evenly divided over the matter
with odds Seemingly Jn favor of Mr.
Eddy, the suggestion from those op-,
posed to him that the vote be held over
until the afternoon, when all the mem
bers could be there, was accepted by the
assembly. " , .-: , :
Mr. Eddy ; then .'said: "Gentlemen, I
will ask Just one question, Why did
not that secret caucus last night .wait
until we all got therer " ;
Delegates discussed this on their way
to dinner, with the result that they
somehow found some-reason for it for
when the meeting reconvened Mr. Jsck
son's amendment was carried by a sub
stantial majority, Mr. Eddy, himself,
saying, ;'I know . you gentlemen have
come here for the purpose of nominat
ing candidates and it would not be right
to disappoint you." ' y ,v 'y 7 ; . 1

He would not further discuss ; the
plnclple of the matter, realizing, per
haps, the futility . of it but ; sald he
would later demand ari expression of
the assembly as to whether or not they
favored the holding of such secret
caucuses. ; He did not do this, however,
and the matter is still in doubt ' After
this dlscusglon, nominations for county
officers wont through with well-oiled
precision, tha ohly contests of any im
portance, being those oyer county Judge

answered when the detectives knocked,
and they forced their way In. The
room was apparently empty, and they
turned to go when they saw a 'little clos
et under a sink in the corner.' The door
was pried open and there crouched, in the
small space, underneath, was Wendllng,
coatless and collarless. He offered' no
resistance, but denied , his identity. At
the police station tattoo marks and a
gun shot wound in his hand were shown
to tally with the description sent by the
Louisville police. The prisoner-then ad
mitted his name was Wendllng.
Wendling's story of his . reason for
flight from Louisville hinges on 'one of
the romantic chapters in his life. Ho
married Madeline - Arnold in , France
against her - parents wishes and was
forced to fly" to Alsace, Her brother,' he
said, followed him to America and ap -
peared in Louisville early in December.
After a number of fights Wendllng said
he decided to leave.
Letters from a young woman in Val
leJo. written by Wendllng.. and inter
cepted, are said to have given the police
here tha first clew to her San Francisco
address.- vv ' ' ' '

"That he should decline it in favor
of the presidency of Reed Institute is
most substantial evidence of his confi
dence in the greatness of the possibili
ties before it and of which he so en
thusiastically undertakes to be the prime
shaping power. Mr. Foster at the same
time ' had been approached by r several
other colleges for high positions in the
administrative part of their work.-'

made the subject of administrative edu
cation on of his majors and his whole
experience of college life has been full
of various official work in administra

,'It s expected that Prof. Foster will
spend considerable time during the com

colleges in the country, and making ob
servations that will be or value when
he comes upon thes ground to organise
the college here, &nd install those who
will share with him as professors and

have been contoured and laid out, a ten

"The- subsequent buildings i will be

for that purpose may be added. .It is
tha intention of the trustees and Prof,
Foster to bend all their efforts toward
opening the college with its first fresh
men class ,in - September, f 1911. ?, Presi
dent Foster probably will be in Oregon
for some considerable portion of the au
tumn and hope to. remove his family
here at that time, ultimately his home
