: THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL PORTLAND;; SATURDAY,. MARCH 201820. 3 s RISH POET AND WIT IS SPEAKER ATDMU ' William tiutler Yeats addressed Portland folk at the Masonic Temple on Friday evening under the aus pices of the Drama League X Port land. The Irish theatre movement ;-wm the original subject in hand, but 'the story tod by Yeats, brimful of Irish wit, proved more than enter k tainina. With Lady Gregoty and John Synge, a score of years ago, Yeats worked for the success of the first Little theatre in ; Ireland. It' was housed In a small building hidden in a dim street In Dub- lln. With players selected from their "own number the product.ons were of- fered. but received scanty support ; In w fact; for one year the money subscribed for the work was the 30 pounds given . by Lady Gregory and the 20 pounds j donated by Yeats. When the cold weather set in the players could no longer use the little house and It was only through the kindness of an Inter ested friend that an old factory build ing was obtained, remodeled and of- , fered to the Lltlle theatre players for use. In a year the Little theatre was on Its own feet financially and has since met with unusual success. Irish poetry, the comedies and real ' Istic plays of the day and folk lore of Ireland were discussed by Yeats, with Interesting first-hand glimpses of the works and characters of his two col I'HUM. Lariy Gregory and John Synge. The fact that Lady Gregory's first play, written after she was 50 years of age. ' was not accepted because of the lines i in which a policeman made a patriotic I speech, was humorously commented , upon by Teats, who said "that to allow a policeman In Ireland to make a pat riotic speech is to permit an unpatri otic act." Explaining- the circumstances of their Inspiration, Teats concluded his lecture ? with the reading of t&o of his own '.. lyrics.

V OF VOTE CONSPIRACY (Continued From Pe One.1 front of the bar of justice as Judge Sessions passed sentence. No one spoke when the court asked if anyone had anything to say before sentence was pronounced. By J. L. O'Snlllvan Grand Rapids, Mich., March 20. (U. P.) Truman H. Newberry, United States senator from Michi gan, was found guilty of fraud in obtaining his election in 1918 by a jury in United States district court here today. . The Jury reported a verdict of guilty at 12 :20 o'clock, after deliberating since 5 p. m. Thursday. The Jurors found that Newberry conspired with .his associates to cause-, the expenditure during the campaign of a, sum of money in ex cess of the amount allowed under the federal corrupt practices act. The maximum penalty provided for the offense is. two years' imprisonment and a fine of $10,000. .Stxteen others were found guilty wih Senator Newberry. They were all lead ing defendants. One was the senator's brother. The remainder of the (5 defendants were acquitted of the charge of con spiring to violate the corrupt practices act. All of the defendants were found not guilty" on the Sixth count, charging conspiracy to use the United States mails to defraud. CAMPAIGN. IS; BITTER The "Newberry case" grew out of one of the bitterest campaigns ever waged for a seat in the United States senate. Truman II. Newberry and Henry Ford were the leading contestants. Newberry, a member of one of Michi gan's oldest and, before the automobile Industry hit Detroit, wealthiest families ; a member of the navy during the Spanish-American war; assistant secretary of the navy in Roosevelt's cabinet, and an aide to the commander of the Port of New York during the World war. based his appeal for election on a war platform. Ford, head of the Ford Automobile company, head of the Ford peace ship, and, before the United States entered the war, leading pacifist, built his plat form on support of President Wilson's policies. SEWBEERT MACHINE HUGE The .Newberry supporters built up a huge organisation entering Into every county, city and village in the state. By their own admission. $178,000 was spent. The government attorneys contended that they had showed $22,000 was paid out to "purchase a seat in the senate" for Com mander Newberry; Testimony given at the trial stated one defendant in a con versation said $800,000 was spent. Paul II. King headed the Newberry campaign committee in Michigan. The government claimed that Senator New berry and Frederick Cody hatched the alleged plot to corrupt the 1918 elec tions In Michigan while they resided in New York. Newberry worked directly through King in .carrying out the details of the campaign, the government contended. The case hinged on the question of whether or not Senator Newberry "caused to be expended" an amount in excess of the sum allowed by the Michigan- statutes In procuring his election. This amount is $370, HE -DIDST KNOW The defense contended that Newberry had nothing to do with the spending of the large sum of money ; declared that he did not contribute .one cent to the campaign fund, and was not Informed of the huge amounts! spent in his be half during the campaign. A grand jury summoned . In the autumn of 1919 t-e turned indictments ac cusing 135 men of conspiracy to violate the federal statutes by spending an ex cessive amount of money In the cam paign. A conspiracy- to defraud the whole state of .Michigan: by using the mails In the alleged fraudulent election scheme was also charged ;'L These were the two main accusations whicTi went before the Jury, Four other indictments were either quashed or com bined with these 'two principal charges. The trial covered ' a period pf eight weeks. Monrt. than 400 witnesses testi fied for the- government and approxi mately '250 for, the defense, f. When the case finally reached ' the Jury's hands only 85 defendants were in volved.'

Rockefeller III, accompanied by his father. John D. Rockefeller Jr.. has made an exhaustive examination of the United States treasury and incidentally 'has shown he possesses that kinship with money that so long has characterized the other members, of his family. Rockefeller, father and son. met John Burke, the treasurer, on their arrival in the , huge gray building that houses Uncle Sam's treasure. . "I came to see how much you have In the treasury, Mr. Treasurer," said Mr. Rockefeller, smiling. "That's easily ascertained." replied Mr. Burke, "but it would be infinitely more Interesting to knew how much money you have." With Frank A. Thiel, assistant treas urer, as a guide, the Rockefellers were piloted through the building and little dismissed. ' One man was not appre hended and-another was too ill to stand trial. The investigation and trial cost the government and defendants a huge sum, estimated by court attaches at approxi mately $1,500,000. The defense alone cost nearly $1,000,000, they estimated. NEWBERRY MAKES STATEMENT Senator Truman H. Newberry issued the following statement on his convic tion : "There is nothing in the Jury's verdict that will cause me to hang my head. Until my conscience and the supreme court decide that I have wronged the people of Michigan, I will retain my seat in the United States senate." "Kather will not resign from the United States senate," Phelps Newberry, son of Senator Newberry, said. The senator said he would have a formal statement later in the day. MOTION FOB SEW TRIAL Immediately . after sentence was passed a motion was made for a new trial. The Jury's first ballot was on the question of whether there was a con spiracy. It stood eight in favor to four against. Within a few minutes the vote was unanimous, according to Juror reports. , Senator Newberry sat as if in a daze when his name, the first to be read, was followed by the word "guilty." Mrs. Newberry, sitting at hto side, patted his hand. His son put his arm around his father's shoulders and blinked to keep back the tears. Tears of Joy and Borrow came to the eyes of wives of defendants as the other names were read. "1 am awfully shocked, sorry," said Martin W. Littleton, chief attorney for the defense. Mrs. Thomas Phillpps, wife of one ac quitted man. left the courtroom sup ported by friends. She was nearly hys terical with Joy. CONVICTION WILL NOT IHIT INVESTIGATION BY SENATE Washington, March 20. I. N. S.) Conviction of Senator Newberry, by the federal court in Michigan will have no effect on the senate Investigation of the charges made against both sides in the Ford-Newberry contest, according to Senator Dillingham, chairman of the senate investigation committee. The committee will hear Newberry's coun sel as soon as he can come to Wash ington. . In the event of the resignation of the Michigan senator from the senate, the Republican majority would be reduced by one. "The senate will begin on Tuesday the countiof the ballots of the Newberry election," Senator Watson, Republican, of Indiana, chairman of the Dilling ham sub-committee conducting the In vestigation, ald. "The senate cannot take any action on the case until after the appeal, which I believe Senator Newberry will file, 1b decided." This count will dftermine, eo far as the senate is concerned, whether New berry or Ford is elected. 75 Villa Bandits Killed by Federals, Report of Mexican El Paso, Texas, March 20. (U. P.)

LEGISLATURE LI DEFEAT OF TREATY IS CRIMEAGAINSTNATION DECLARES W.J. BRYAN 'New Haven, Conn., March 20. (U. P.) "The defeat of the treaty Is a co lossal crime against our own country and the world." William J. Bryan de clared in an interview here today. If we allow a minority of the sen' ate to dictate the policy of the senate on this momentous question, we betray de mocracy and turn our faces back to ward 'arbitrary power, and arbitrary power as exercised by a few is scarcely less hateful than arbitrary power as ex ercised by one. "The action of the senate is the more disgraceful because the rejection was bf ought about by a union between a group of Democrats and the irreconcil able foes of the treaty, whom the Dem ocrats have been denouncing for eight months. If the action of the senate is permitted to stand we invite confusion at home and chaos abroad. "But the action of the senate should not be allowed to stand as the verdict of the nation. The majority in congress should assert itself at once, first by declaring the war at ' an end ; second, by declaring in favor of the nation's participation in the League of Nations on such terras as the majority shall agree upon : third, by proposing an amendment to the constitution permit ting a majority of the senate and house to ratify a treaty by Joint resolution and in the same way define the nation's foreign policy, thus making it as easy to end a war as to begth it. "In the meantime the people should wire and write to senators and the presi dent urging ratification. A change of four votes will be sufficient." Bryan, who was on his way from New York to Boston, declared the situ ation is so full of possibilities that It must be brought to the people in every possible way.
