Borah, Wadsworth, Pomerene and
Hitchcock Are Charged With
Blocking Suffrage Amendment.
Chicago. Feb. 13. (U. P.) The
enemy of woman suffrage ia "a fly
sitting on the wheel of progress."
Imagining he can command It "to
revolve no more and that It will
ey." Mn. Carrie Chapman Catt,
president of the National Suffrage
association, said In her opening ad
dress at the convention of the organ
ization here today.
Mrs. Catt reviewed the battle for the
federal suffrage amendment, citing the
difficulties which were overcome in
curing Its passage by congress and
In the present fight for quick ratifi
cation by the states.
She attacked Senators Borah of
Idaho, Wadsworth of New Tork. Pome
rene of Ohio and Hitchcock of Ne
braska as "refusing to represent their
states' In the sixty-fifth congress when
the amendment failed to pass.
"As the amendment needed but a
single vote in the sixty-fifth congress,
the responsibility for its failure to
psaa may be laid upon any one of the
four," ah said. "They not only put
their own states to the expense of
extra sessions, but the other states as
well."
Mrs. Catt called on suffragists to
rally to the support of any governors
who may be attacked by their political
opponents for bringing the extra ex
pense of special sessions on their re
spective states.
When a Republican governor calls a
special session in . order to ratify, he
merely atones for the Inexplicable con
duct of two members of his own party,"
Mrs. Catt said. "They, not he. are
blamable for the fact that the special
session became necessary.
"Tha Democratic governor who calls
a special session only makes honorable
amends for the misrepresentation by
members of his own party."
Tha executive committee of the suf
frsge sssoclatlon was to meet early to
day to vote on the plan to dissolve the
organisation when the federal amend
ment Is finally ratified. Little, doubt
waa expressed by members of the coun
cil before the meeting that action rec
ommending dissolution of the associa
tion and urging members to Join the
new League of Women Voters would be
taken.
Suffragists were Jubilant today when,
they learned that Arizona haJ ratified
tha federal amendment. It was the
thirty-first state to .approve of the
amendment. Five more are needed.
tJNIOir IS AIM
Describing the work of the conference
, Mrs Catt said :
'In every conference yesterday, the
league made It clear that It is not to
dissolve any present organization, but
to unite all existing organizations of
women who believe In Its principles. It
IS not to create sex antagonism, but to
develop cooperation between men and

Mclnerney and one or two others,"
Morgan replied.
"Were you in the hall at the time of
the shooting?"
"Yes. sir." '
"Where?"
"By the stove."
"Who came in just before the shoot
ing?" "Elmer Smith." (the attorney), an
sweted the witness.
JSorcan said Attorney Smith went to
the back of the hall and talked with
Britt Smith. The conversation was not
overheard. As the attorney was leaving
the hall, he stood by the door, Morgan
declared, and asked Britt Smith if he
was sure that he had plenty of men.
"Smith said, 'Yes, sir,' " Morgan added.
Later Britt Smith, the witness con
tinued, was In the front of the hall,
pointing out over the street towards the
Avalon, the Queen and Arnold rooming
houses. He was then talking to a group
of men and among them were Wesley
Everest, the man who was lynched ;
Becker, Mike Sheehan and Loren Rob
ets. They were grouped about a small
table.
SMITH GIYYES DIRECTIONS
Smith was telling them to get front
rqoms in the Avalon, Arnold, the Queen
and the Roderick, according to the wit
ness. The Roderick was in the same
building as the I. W. W. hall, but up
stairs. " "It's kind of nice for an attorney to
come In and tell you to do your duty,'
Britt Smith said," Morgan testified, in
telling of Attorney Elmer Smith's visit.
The defendant. Commodore Bland,
came into the hall with a rifle wrapped
in a black overcoat, the witness said.
The rifle waa taken to the back of the
hall. Britt Smith asked Morgan If he
wanted a rifle, the witness asserted,
and he replied that he did not.
Everest took Mike Sheehan to the
back of the hall and talked to him
about a rifle, Morgan said. The wit-
0.038 added that Bert Bland also come
into the hall and talked about going to
change his clothes.
Attorney Abel then introduced a brown
suit of clothing, reputed to have be
longed to Bert Bland. It was identi
fied by Morgan as resembling the cloth
ing the defendant wore at the time and
was entered aa an exhibit for further
identification.
HOW DAVIS HID RIFLE
"Davis (a defendant in the case who
has not been apprehended) came into the
hall with a rifle down his pants' leg,"
said Morgan. illustrating how the
weapon was carried. "He was walking
stiff legged and his fellow members
were laughing at him, and he took it
out and wrapped It in an overcoat. He
had the gun down his leg as he came
into the hall."
Later, Davis went down on the street
and towards the Avalon hotel, carrying
the overcoat and gun, the witness testi
fied. Barnett went out of the hall a
little ahead of Davis.
Mclnerney cautioned them. If captured
not to "holler," Morgan saiS. and this
caution was voiced from cell to cell
again in the Centralia pall that nig;ht.
Morgan also , identified the defendant
Bert Faulkner, but was not sure that he
was in the hall at the time the shootiag
took place.
"I saw Britt Smith pointing out to
him the rooming houses across the
I street." Morgan said.
I "Didn't he say something to Britt
;' about doing his duty?" the prosecutor
' asked.

consider whether to sell the ships or
not.
Senator King went to the telephone
during the discussion and asked Payne
regarding the alleged purpose to sell the
fleet for 128.000,000.
PAY5E DENIES REPORT
"Judge Payne assures me." said King,
"that there ia not a scintilla of truth
In the charge that an agreement has
been made with the International Mer
cantile Marine to sell It "the German
Ships for 28,0Qp,000."
Ashurat urged immediate action on
the resolution.
Constitutional prohibition, which
makes government-owned passenger
vessels dry, was given by Payne as the
main reason for the sale of the 2d for
mer German liners.
Government operation of these vessels
under such conditions cannot be suc
cessful and the ships can be sold to
better advantage now than later, in the
opinion of the board. Payne declared In
a letter to Representative Mead, New
York, today,
Payne pointed out that the cost of
reconditioning 20 of the liners would be
$57,000,000, while the bids for these ves
sels were $20,000,600.
"In view of the present situation,"
Payne wrote, "it did not seem to us we
were Justified in incurring so large an
expense"
The chipping board chairman denied
the vessels would fall into the bands of
foreign interests, because the vessels
will be sold only under the condition
that they shall remain under the Ameri
can flag and be sailed In routes indi
cated by the shipping board.
"This, we believe, will adequately pro
tect the United States," Payne wrote.

ADMINISTRATOR IS UAMED
1 This reward is payable from Des
campa' estate, and the order was made
by Judge Tazwell at the same time
that he appointed Hector Moumal,
member of the French colony here and
friend of Descamps, administrator of
Deacamps' affairs. Descamps' fcttorneys,
Joseph St Haney, estimate hia property
is worth upward of $75,000. Moumal's
bonds were fixed at $5000 by the court.
Some opposition to the appointment of
Moumal was expressed by other friends
of Descamps, but this disappeared when
Henri Labbe, French consul, guaranteed
to supervise the administration of the
estate by Moumal.
WILL IXAMIIT PAPERS
Labbe was anxious to have an admin
istrator named so that authority to
examine Descamps' papers at his home
and in his safety deposit boxes could be
given with the hope of obtaining some
clue to enemies who might desire his
death.
There are numerous letters scattered
about the premises at his Beaverton
home, for the most part written In
French. His safety deposit box ia be
lieved to contain many valuable securi
ties. Hector Moumal, the administrator, is
a father-in-law of Deputy Sheriff Chris
tofferson, who has been active In work
ing on the disappearance of Descamps.
DECAMPS WAS WIDOWER
Police learned Thursday that Des
camps was a widower Instead of a
bachelor.
Detective Golts found a card in the
Frenchman's home at Beaverton on
which was written the address of Mrs.

victed on a charge of assault and rob
bery with a dangerous weapon. His
case was taken on appeal to the state
supreme court and a decision on this
appeal was pending in the early part of
August of that year when, he recalled.
Commissioner Fletcher, King, Alder
man Castator and Henry visited him
in hia drug store at Flint. King, ac
cording to the witness, opened the con
versation thus:
"Only about two weeks remain be
fore the primaries and I am mak
ing my last trip through the state
ironing out the rough spots. You seem
to S)e one of the rough spots. Tou
know, your organization might help us
out. What do you need to -give us your
assistance? We have a large expense
account and we can allow you what you
may require in the way of. paying ex
penses you might Incur."
AJtOU31EKT CHANGES FROXT
At this point McKeighan said he cut
King off with this reminder.
"1 am not for Newberry," whereupon
he swore Commissioner Fletcher took
over the argument.
"I told you," he Is quoted as saying,
turning to King, "that it won't do us
any good to talk money to him. He
knows how I stand at Lansing. He
knows that I'm In shape to see that
his case is either reversed or affirmed.
If he carries hia district for Newberry
he'll not go to jail. If he doesn't carry
it for Newberry he will go to jail."
"A sentence of from 2 to 15 years
was standing against me then," Mc
Keighan said. "I figured I had better
be on the safe side. So well, I kinda
sided with Newberry.
"I told my main supporters to see that
Newberry carried my district,"
"And the disposition of your case In
the supreme court?" asked Frank C.
Dalley, special assistant attorney gen
eral. "The verdict against me was re
versed." WITNESS TTVDER CROSS FIRE
Attorney Littleton during cross ex
amination went at the witness with a
degree of violence that was surprising.
"Did you honestly believe." he de
manded, "that those men could influ
ence your etate supreme court?"
"I hardly believed It," McKeighan an
swered, "but I didn't believe In taking
chances, either. Sometimes, politics Is
funny."
He explained that his case was taken
up by the supreme court some time near
November, 1918.
"Judge Murfin waa there that day,"
he said, pointing to the defense at
torney. This did not please Murfin nor
Littleton.
Littleton tried to establish the fact
that the supreme court decision was
rendered in spite of the fact that Mc
Kelghan's district did not "go for New
berry."
"Yes. my district was carried for
Newberry," the witness shot back with
assurance. "We were talking about the
primary. According to my talk with
Fletcher that's what I had to promise
to deliver. After the primary I quit
being a Newberry man."
"You thought It might be safe to quit
Newberry after the primary?" the law
yer sug&estetf.
CHARGE 18 REITERATED
"Yes after the primary, but not be
fore." At several times during the cross
examination McKeighan reiterated his
assertion that Commissioner Fletcher
had definitPly used' the words "If you
carry your district in the primary for
Newberry t$&e supreme court will re
verse your case ; if you don't carry it
the supreme court will affirm it."
"I didn't have to promise to back
Newberry, because Fletcher said he
didn't want me to promise. "The way
my district went would ppeak for' itself,"
the one time mayor explained.
