GILLFFT TALKS BIT "SASSY"; KHIGHT L RISE California's Ex-Governor and Bay City Attorney 'Almost - Come to Blows; But They're Friends, Says Gillett. (RiK'chl Dtenstch to The Journal.) San Francisco, Jan. 7. An excited al tercation, which the bystanders exacted every minute would develop into a lively game of fisticuffs, took place between ex-Governor James N. Qlllett and At torney George A. Knight in the entrance to the Crocker building, shortly after 1:30 o'clock this afternoon. Both men have offices In that build ing. Knisht was coming out and Gll Iftt was entering. They ;j met in the doorway and a duel of words ensued. miner, u and' going out and city.

VUV.S UI AQTICe. uuniway waited one day before he again telegraphed the National Shawmnt bank, this time saying: "Read what city officials published In today's Oregonlan. If the supreme court In the original proceedings decides In Klernan's favor, the bonds would simply become Invalid and the purchasers and not the city or Mr. Klernan as a taxpayer would he the losers." Also. "After Mr. Benbow re ceived a copy of the Injunction yester day he said he believed the sufreme court had granted the Injunction upon the theory that If the bonds are permit ted to change hands at present thpy would get Into the hands of an innocent purchaser who would suffer in case the bonds are finally found to be invalid. Paper sent by mail." The last telegram Is dated October 21 and Is apparently addressed to the tel ler of the Shawmut National bank. It reads: "Supreme court of Oregon hearing ar gument of Klernan case merits refused to continue temporary injunction because court holds your bid for bonds is sub Ject to the decision of supreme court J In Klernan case and purchaser buys at his peril and is not innocent purchaser and that his pendens applies to these bonds and that Klernan does not need Injunction. Started new suit against city and Ladd & TUton bank today." Since the supreme court as well as tho state circuit court has decided not only that the obstructionist case of Klernan and Duniway is without merit, but that the Port of Portland has no power over bridge building In the city limits, Dunl way seems to have spent telegraph tolls In vain for his clients. ?ffiiiisBi Few Likely to Resume Before March 1, Demand Being , Too Light. . , others who ran to see what tne trouble was, believed that blows would result Uut Gillett finally made his way to the elevator and wen to his office-after a loud exchange of recriminations. ' Qlllett Zs Sorry. When seen this evening at the Key Route Inn, where he spoke at the ban quet given to the counties committee of the California development board, ex-Governor Gillett said that he had no liurd feelings toward George A. Knight and expressed himself as very sorry that the incident should have happened. "I was entering the Crocker build ing," said the former governor, "when George came up to me and said: 'Well, you're ouj of office now, and It jyl.ll be a long time before you get into another, that is if I have anything to say about it.' " 'Now look here, George,' . I replied, 'I have been hearing that you have been saying a good ninny things about me, on the street and with your -back up against bars, and then when you meet me you have always .heretofore been very friendly to me. Now, what havo I done to you? I have always treated you right, haven't IT If you go about talking about a man behind his back you are going to get a reputation of being an old scold, and that is the kind of a reputation you have gained al ready." "Knight came back at me with some hotheaded remarks. Just what they were I don't remember, but I did not pay much attention to it. Father O'Malley, who was standing near, saVI: Don't pay any attention to what he says. That is not the real George A. Knight that Is speaking.' Ho I simply turned on my heel and walked away. 'I have nothing against George; I have known hlni lor many years: I know Just the kind of a man he is, and know his weakness and I have too much to do to pick a quarrel with him." Wouldn't Strike, Him. Did you threaten to strike him?" was asked. "No." said Gillett. "I never thought of striking him." In regard to the cause of tho out burst on the part of George A. Knight, ex-Governor Gillett said that ho was t a Iofs to know what actuated litu friend. "1 know," said he, "that Knight has been rather sore for some time, be cause tie thinks that he has not re ceived sufficient recognition during my administration, but he has received more than anybody else. He got enough, at least. I was running my own adminis tration and not George A. Kplght." Directly after the encounter. Knight took the train for Sacramento. His friends say that he has long believed that Gillett did not properly repay po litical adherence, and that this prompted his outburst. The Columbia River Loggers' associa tion held its regular monthly meeting yesterday afternoon to study the ' log situation. From individual members" expressions it is apparent that few of the camps now idle will resume opera tions before March 1. It Is said that logging . Is carried on In the higher timber at a loss during the wet months. By employing a man In a gasoline boat the loggers have taken a complete Inventory of the jogs In the river, and tt is said there la sufficient to fill all demands until the camps resume oper ations, the demand being light because of the great number of mills In Port land and down the river having shut down for a general overhauling and to reduoe the output, which It Is held has been too heavy for the demand from the markets reached by Oregon lumber manufacturers at this time of ihe year The proposed "log pickup bureau" has now practically been organized and will be ready for business In a few weeks. This bureau is designed to pro tect loggers and mlllmen against the log pirates who for years have made a practice of stealing sawlogs from rafts anchored In the river. The bureau will maintain a patrol to catch the pirates. It is understood that in view of the fact that country produce has advanced materially la cost the logging camp boarding houses will charge $5.25 a week instead of $6, the ruling figure for board up until the closing of the camps before the holidays.

(United Press Leased Wirt.) Des Moines, 'Iowa, Jan, 7. With the standpat Republicans refusing to enter any sort of a party caucus that would defeat Senator Lafayette Toung, who has been appointed to. Senator Dolllver's seat in the United States senate by Gov ernor Carroll, the progressives divided between at least four candidates and the Democrats united as never before, and pledged to take no part In the Re publican row unless they can gain the senatoishlp themselves, Iowa politics Is worse tangled up-thah ever "Before In a state' noted for political tangles. The ,Young men assert that, with their share of the state patronage given them at today's caucuses, and the United States senator, they will stand pat and not en ter any caucus unless they are given a special statewide primary, In which, they think, Young could defeat the field on the Issue of protection for Iowa food producers... The backers of Judge W. 8. Kenyon, government "trust buster," say he Is second choice of the progressives, and also second choice of the railroad ele ment of the standpatters, and that both factions will struggle to nominate him within 10 days, when they see their fa vorltes are impossible. The backers of Governor Warren Garst and A. B. Funk, Cummins' choice, say they have nothing to say, and await developments. While all. the candidates have opened neaaquariers ana nave managers wim out end, not one has given out a figure nor made a specific claim. The 'Democrats held a three hours' conference today and decided, first, "to demand the Oregon primary law above everything else; second, to hoe their own row and not help either faction of the Republicans out, and third, not to favor or oppose a special state primary to se lect the senator. If this primary is ordered. It means the legislature, will reconvene In the spring and elect the winner, and meanwhile Young will' hold down the Job In Washington.

In order to secure better protection for: game birds and .wild animals, the Oregon Audubon society has begun an active campaign for the passage or several new game laws at the approach ing session of the legislature. At an open meeting of the society, held last night at the-public library. It was voted to use every effort to separate the use of game birds from political Influence. The plan agreed upon Is to place the enforcement of the game laws In the hands of a game commission., President Flnley reported that Governor-elect west had expressed unqualified ap proval of the bill drawn by the society for presentation to the legislature tak ing the appointment of the state game warden from the governor and giving It to a commission of five members, who are to be appointed, by the executive of the state. Mr. Flnley reported that the governor-elect will lend every aid to the society In Its efforts to give better protection to game and song birds and wild animals. . President Flnley appointed H. H.

"I shall do In other counties,' he said, "where I may hold court, as have done here, whenever I can secure sufficient evidence to warrant an In vecitlsatlon.

MIME OF THUGS' CASTLE Theory Recast Regarding the Houndsditch Criminals; Just Counterfeiters, or Did They Coin to Finance Anarchy. (United .Press Leased Wlre. London, Jan. ,7.That there were eight or more desperate men, armed with the most modern of high power auto matic pistols, barricaded In the Sydney street house during last Tuesday's bat-, tie with the p6ltce and. Scots guards, was ", proved tonight when searchers' found six additional charred, bodies In the ruins. Two were found immediately after the" battle. ' -. . ... In addition to the bodies the polloe found on of the most complete coining i plants they have ever seen, As many of , the dies were for foreign coins, the con tinental police have been notified, and an interchange of cables Indicates that the men "were, conneoted with an Inter national band of counterfeiters. Perhaps the most startling admission of the police, however, Is that the dead men may have had no connection what ever with the recent tragedy 1n Hounds ditch, when tnree unarmed policemen were shot dead by a band of robbers engaged In tunneling their way Into a large jewelry establishment It Is certain from evldeno discov ered In the burned fortress that the dead men were connected with the earl ier Tottenham outrage, with the notor ious bank robberies in Scotland and with a number of other daring crimes which Scotland Yard has been unable to fathom. That the men were desperate foreign criminals there can be no doubt, but the belief is lessening that they were notorious anarchists. In tplte of this, there are many offi cials connected with Scotland Yard who still maintain that the men were mere ly engaged In counterfeiting and other bold crimes to secure money with which to carry on their propaganda of anarchism. In the ruins of the Sydney street house tonight, near the six oharred bodies, the police found a number of Ingeniously constructed time bombs which had not exploded. The great care exercised in their manufacture strengthened the belief of .the adher ents of the anarchist theory, that the men were really anarchists. These of ficials say they have secured evidence that there was on foot a plot to kill King George, either before or at the time of his coronation In June.
