passed through The Dalles and into

Boulb. of the Columbia river. On all
Mdcs the harvest was in progress, great
threshing machines a nd combine har
vesters were on every side and the gold
en grain that has helped make Wasco

stream rom , the fields to the ware
louse. The only complaint heard dur-
' ing the day was the lack of help.

gather some statistics and then the par

Chicago, July 11 .Governor Charles
S. Deneen of Illinois, in Chicago today
in conference with his lieutenants, is
expected to announce his final decision
to defy the "bull moose" cartv and re
fuse adherence to Roosevelt. That this
action will be promptly met by the thinjl
party placing complete state and con
gressional tickets in the field In Illinois
this fall is practically certain.
eaui Mccormick s statement yester
day, made after a conference with Colo
nel Roosevelt, was regarded as a chal
lenge to Deneen cither to come into the
Roosevelt fold or face a rival Republi
can candidate at the polls.
At a conference last night the old La
Follette crowd and the Roosevelt ad
herents compromised their differences
and a call was issued for a state con
ference in Chicago next Monday. At
that time a date will be set and a call
issued for the state convention to select
delegates to the Roosevelt national con
vention August 5 with 'Governor De
neen'a decision before Monday's confer
ence action probab)y will be taken at
that time on a Roosevelt state .ticket
for Illinois.

a woman 80 years old. who elves the
name of Mrs. Anna Wood was arrested
this morning in the apartments of Miss
Amanda Sleverkropp, a trained nurse,
at the Beryl apartments, 695 Lovejoy
street, afl,er the woman had vlctlm
fzed Dr. William M. Campbell out of
$20 and Rev. J. H. Black of 64 East
Eleventh street, out of $160.
The woman, who until one week ago
had been stopping at the Imperial ho
tel, declared that she was the owner
of an estate in the east valued at $176,-
wuo ana mat she had $20,000 in the bank
at Santa Rosa, Cal., and displayed deeds
to the estate and a pass book on the
bank to prove her claims, but these
have been found to be fictitious.
Two weeks ago the woman registered
at the Imperial and last Sunday called
l)r, Campbell, claiming that she was
ill. After two days' treatment she told
the physician that she was temporarily
embarrassed, asked for $500 and dis
played the, deeds and pass book, but
the physician refused to comply with
her request, although he did give the
nurse a check for $20 for her services
and for her hotel bill. The check given
to the nurse was taken from Miss Slev
erkropp's hand by the woman, cashed
by Mrs. Wood and the money kept.
When the nurse left the hotel, Mrs.
Wood followed her to her apartments
and stayed there for a week, making it
necessary for the nurse to provide her

me ooarus in the pole vault First hon
ors went to H. S. Babcock of Columbia
university, with a total height of 12
rcet 11 3-6 Inches, a new Olympio rec
ord. The old mark was made by W. R.
Dray of Danbury, Conp., and was 13
feet i Inches.
F. T. Nelson of Yale and Marc S.
Wright of Dartmouth tied for second
place.
When the finals in the pole vault
were called, there were eight Americans,
one Swedish athlete, one German and
one Canadian eligible. Halfpenny, tho
Canadian entrant, hurt himself intern
ally while clearing the bar at the 13
foot 5 inch mark, and was obliged to
quit. F. J. Coyle, University of Chi
cago, broke his pole at the 12.5 mark
and came a cropper, which Jarred him
bo much that he could not continue. H.
F. Hitz of Cornell, G. B. Dukes. New
York A. C., and Passman, the German,
failed to clear the bar at 12 feet 6
Inches and were ruled out.
While the pole vault was being com
pleted the gymnastic finals were fin
lshed, Italy winning first, Hungary sec
ond and England third.
Sow's Great Putting of Shot.
The official figures for the shotput
distances were: Rose, right hand, 15.23
meters; left hand, 12.47 meters. Mc

ney, Clarence J. Shearn, has been trying
to demonstrate for nearly a month that

his liberty has before him the opinions
of six alienists, the bsst of their clasa In

Three agree that Thaw la saae and
should be free, while three insist equally
as strenuously that if he is turned loose
lie probably will commit another mur

Johiv-WKussell, head of the Matte
wan asylum'and a friend of Thaw, told
the court that be feared if Thaw waa
released and returned to his former
habits,, especially to drinking In excess,
he might commit another murder. This
statement is expected to Jhave great
,welght with the court in arriving at a
decision.
Dr. Charles K. Mills, professor of neu

reiterated his statement of yesterday
that Thaw could be safely given hU
freedom.
Other witnesses today were attaches
of the Tombs prison in New York, where
inaw was confined; private detectives
who conferred with him in' prison, and
court attendants, all of whom swore
that they had never noticed anything
irrational in Thaw's actions.

Stockholm, July 1L It was a stolid
company of athletes that entered the
stadium from the steamer Finland to
day. The cocksureness which had
marked the Americans since their arri
val was missing and had been replaced
by a determination that was certain to
have its result in future contests. The
loss of the 1500 and 6000 meter races,
the first of which at least already had
been chalked up to the Americans, was
a bitter disappointment, and the train
ers did not omit language from their
criticism.
No attempt was made to rob Jackson
the Englishman, of the honor due him
for his victory, but it was pointed out
that If the Americans had used judg
ment in making the pace in the earlier

As a result of the bitter criticism.
oeiter work was shown by the Ameri

was not thought good enough to be sent

expenses nre being defrayed by private
funds, finished within three-tenths of a

OF SHOOTING
SHOWS IMPROVEMEN
T
The condition of Herman P. Emery,
the Stage manager of the Pantaifes
theatre, who was shot by O. W. Pence,
who Js believed to be demented, while
near the door of the theatre Tuesday
night, is much, improved today. He is
at the St. Vincent s hospital. Although
the bullet pierced the dlaphraam an.1
the right lung and lodged near the
spine, it is said that he has a good
chance for recovery.
One incident of the shooting which
was brought out yesterday was that
after Emery had been shot by Pence
and while still helpless on the floor, ho
scrawled a short note or will on the
back Qf Ms photograph. In the will he
gave all of his property to Ms wife and
charged his stepson, Ferris, 17 years
old, to care for her. The will was writ
ton when Emery thought h was mor
tally wounded. The will follows:
"Portland, July 9. I leave all my
property to my wife, Viola A. Emery,
and charge my son Perrls to take gooj
care of his mother from my Insurance
left by me. In fear,
"HERMAN P. EMERY."
A. W. Rice of the stage force, who
was present, witnessed the will.
The players at Pantages theatre are
very much wrought up over the affair.
Miss Carmen Ercell, one . of them,
fainted Just before going on the stage
yesterday afternoon.
Over a dozen letters from Pence were
received at the theatre yesterday, all
addressed to Miss Lowe. According to
later developments she was not the girl
with whom Pence was Infatuated. Miss
CarmerrErcell was the object of his ln
fatuatlons, according to Pence's de
scription. In his delusion he had con
fused the names, it is believed.
The letters contain all sorts of
strange requests and orders.
Leaders of the Apostollo faith denv
the report that Pence, who also used
the name of Pinch, belonged to their
mission.
