Idaho. July 2. (I. N. S.) Advices were received by the authorities here shortly before noon today that 10 men. who In sensa tional fashion late Friday night kid naped Kate Richards O'Hare. fa mous Socialist speaker, were in cus tody of officers at Montello, Nev ., and Mrs. O'Hare had boarded a train at Montello for Ogden, Utah. Miss Kathleen O'Hare immediately left for Ogden. taking with her baggage aad clothing belonging to her mother, which were left behind when Mrs. O'Hare was seised at the home of H H Freidhelnu who was sonsor for Mrs. O'Hare in Twin Falls. Mrs. O'Hare had come to Twin Falls to make a speech, despite warnings that it was unwise. It developed today that when Mrs. O'Hare was seised she was robed In a kimona and that she was given no time to secure either a hat or other clothes, but was taken as she was found on the long ride across the desert. Although it was first reported she would not return here, Freidheim de clared she would carry out her plans for speaking here and had wired Governor Davis for protection. Returned service men and cttlsens supporting the sensational deportation Insist that she will not be permitted to speak if she again comes to Twin FaRa The men arrested at Montello are being held and will likely be returned here for trial. Mrs. O'Hare was In Portland last Sunday, addressing a crowd at Rohse's park at Fulton. No effort was made by the authorities to prevent her speaking on radical subjects. Her coming was sponsored by local Socialists. KIDNAPERS AIR DELIVERY IS CONTINUED AFTER MISHAP WITH GERMANY Journal Service to Seaside Re- sumed Despite Thrilling Fight With Wind and Water Friday; Save Pilot, Passenger, Plane. Despite the gale that buffeted Pilot Archie Roth and his hydro plane carrying the early afternoon edition of The Journal to the Clat sop beaches Friday afternoon, dam aging the airship and endangering the lives of Its passengers, the air delivery of papers today was not in terrupted. Official? of the Oregon-Washington-Idaho Airplane compa ny declared the second flight would be undertaken despite the weather outlook. TO SEND NEW PLANE That another plane would take off from The Journal's landing slip at the foot of Yamhill street shortly after i o'clock this afternoon was definitely an nounced by Victor Vernon, manager of the airplane company, after consulta tion with the weather bureau. He said every effort to make the delivery would be made although air conditions were not favorable. The plan was, in fact. to send two planes to the coast, one for the regular air delivery of papers and the other for 'exhibition and commercial flight work at Wheeler, further down the coast from Seaside. A brand new seaplane, driven only few times to test Its action, took off With its cargo of Journals at 1160 o'clock this afternoon. Victor Vernon, general manager of the airplane com pany, was the pilot. Vernon looked for difficult flying toward the mouth of the river and saw to It that he had abundance of gasoline. The edition loaded on the plane for Seaside this afternoon carried full re ports of the Carpentler-Dempsey fight, with details by rounds. STORM IS SEVERE Friday's initiation of the summer air delivery of Journals was featured by the worst storm through which Pilot Roth had ever flown. With Earl C. Brown lee of The Journal staff as passenger, he had taken off from The Journal slip at 2 :06 with a heavy cargo Of papers. Rough flying was encountered almost Immedi ately, with a stiff head wind This in creased in intensity as the plane shot westward until Roth discovered that his gasoline was giving out. Turning hack to the river. Roth maneuvered his plane so that it reached Astoria, unloaded the papers and sent them to Seaside by mo tor truck. He then refilled his gas tanks and undertook to start back to Portland. The wind, estimated at 80 miles an hour, lashed the Columbia into enormous waves which, before the plane could rise, beat the craft against the shoreline piling and floating logs and damaged one wing. Roth, realising that the plane was almost helpless so close to the shore in the face of such a wind, "taxied" out into the river and up stream, seeking smoother water and en deavoring to rise above the danger. ADRIFT IN RIVER Soon he discovered that the water, hurtling high, had fouled his engine and he could not rise. Efforts to clear It, with the river rolling like breakers, proved fruitless and he and Brownlee found themselves drifting- and tossing helplessly, the motor barely turning enough to make headway on the surface. After two hours, they managed to signal a fisherman named Pierson, who got a towrope to the plane and drew it for nearly three miles around the jutting Tongue point Into the quiet waters of the bay. Roth and Brownlee, soaked to the skin and suffering from exposure, were warmed and fed and given dry clothes at Pierson's cabin. A mechanic went to Astoria this morn ing to repair the damage, which was said not to be extensive, so Roth could bring the plane back to Portland this after noon, if possible. Two Girls Injured . In Auto Collision Near Glatskanie Jessie Rogers, 343 Sherman street, was seriously Injured and Florence Henry of the same address was slightly hurt when an automobile in which they were coming to Portland from Astoria was forced to run Into the ditch on the big curve of the lower Columbia river highway between Clatskanle snd Marsh land Friday evening. Two automobiles collided on the high way Just before the ear bearing the two girls came around the bend In the road. The two cars stopped in such a position that they blocked the road and the third car was traveling so rapidly that the driver could not stop in time to avoid colliding with the other two cars so he drove into the ditch. When the car swerved from the road it overturned, pinning Miss Rogers under the wreckage. She was brought to the Good Samaritan hospital at noon today and is believed to have concussion of the brain and both shoulders broken. Miss Henry was bruised aad went Immediate ly to her horn HARDING FINIS ON WAR Porter-Knox Peace Resolution, Passed by Congress, Signed by President; Group of Peo ple Witnesses Last Chapter. Raritan, N. J., July 2. President Harding signed the Porter-Knox res olution declaring peace with the cen tral powers at 3:10 p. m. Eastern standard time today. The president returned from a golf game at Bernardsville, N. J., this aft ernoon and signed the peace resolution awaiting him at Senator Frelinghuysen's residence here. The president, clad in a Palm Beach suit, sat on the veranda and leisurely examined the resolution, which had been brought from Washington by W. Smlth ers of the White House executive staff. ' After a few moments the president walked into the living room of the Fre linghuysen house and took his place at an old mahogany table. Cameramen set up their machines In a semi-circle In front of him Speaker Glllett, Senator Fre linghuysen. Senator Kellogg, Senator Hale and Dr. Sawyer were grouped around the president when he took a small black pen in his hand. Mrs. Harding was resting, upstairs, but other women in the party were in the room. Harding adjusted his glasses and signed his name on the last page of the resolution. He laid the pen down, looked around and said: The little group applauded and con gratulated the president. The pen used In signing the resolution will be given to Congressman Porter, chairman of the house foreign relations committee, whose resolution wss adopted as the form of the peace measure. Neither President Harding nor any officials present were positive just when peace becomes effective. Speak er Gillett believed that the document requires certification by the state de partment before becoming operative, but he was not certain of this.

On the eve of what has been so aptly termed the battle of the century, though a few critics think that the Marns and Verdun wss pretty near Its equal In importance, I wish to offer a couple suggestions to the gen public of this country snd Francs in regards to their conduct on and after July 3. These suggestions is called forth by some remarks made the other day by a French boxing expert that wss sent over hers to report the fight and hers Is his remarks: "France as a nation prays as one that Georges will toe returned the victor. His success or failure Is s matter of national concern ; on the result may hinge the elevation of France. His de feat would be regarded as a national calamity."

Eye witnesses could see that the thumb was badly swollen, though it was pointed out that a bad sprain some times has the appearance of a frac ture. Descamps said It was the overhand right which staggered Dempsey that re sulted In the injury. Arena, Jersey City, N. J.. July 2. (U. P.) "I was beaten by a better man real champion," said Georges Carpen tier to the United Press immediately after the tight "I broke my right hand in the second round when I landed a heavy overhand punch on Dempsey's Jaw. After that I could only stand him off, and he was too strong for me. Dempsey hits the most powerful blows I have ever felt. I felt that I was much too light for him In the fourth round I knew t was going, but after the first knockdown I decided to make one last try." Arena, Jersey City, N. J., July 2. (U. P.) "Dempsey is a real cham pion," said Francois Descamps, in the dressing room after the fight. "It w a case of the best light heavyweight in the world against the best heavyweight, another case of a Stanley Ketchell against a Jack Johnson." RAIL WORKERS ARE EAGER FOR STRIKE By Carl Victor Little Chicago. July 1. (U. P.) The majority of the two million railroad workers were held at bay today by conservative leadership. Rail union leaders, meeting here to decide what action to take on the It per cent wsge cut ordered by the United States railroad labor board, stood out against a walkout in spite of the fact that members of unions are overwhelm ingly opposed to the wage slash. Attitude of the rank and file Is shown by unofficial counts of referendums taken among some unions and by state ments of some leaders who sounded out their men before they came to the con ference. In railroad circles today it was be lieved that the will of the leaders would prevail that they would prevent a rail road crisis In spite of the $400,000,000 an nual pay reduction. Definite statement of the action of the leaders may come late today, but it is probable the conference may continue into next week. Oregon Relatives of Woman Dead in East Are Being Sought Cincinnati, Ohio, July 8. Unless Port land. Or., relatives appear soon, the body of Mrs Louise Carter, lying un claimed at the General hospital, will be buried in the City cemetery by authori ties. Mrs Carter died at the hospital as the result of an unlawful operation, according to clues unearthed by County Coroner D. T. Hansley. The only Clnclnnatlan acquainted with Mrs. Carter was a man who signed the name "Tim" on notes sent to the dead woman.

Com munications apparently from her fath er In Lebanon. Or., were also found, advising her to Join bun. Advices here today state that the father will Investi gate the and as it looks like a cinch that either Georges or Jacques la going to get knocked for a ghoul. It Is also a cinch that either France or America faces a calamity which it may take them years to recover from same, perhaps never. What is unlost everybody keeps their head and schools them self to face the worst that can happen. That Is what I want to say In a few words in regards to, as I have sa idear that maybe if I confide how I acted in different Instants like these and made the best of situations even more desper ate, why maybe the gen public of France and America can profit by my example and conduct themselfs so as no matter how the fight comes out. they wont be no collapse of the govt at Washington or Paris BOAT EACE RECALLED Well, friends, you win doubtless re member last year when the Resolute and Shamrock was racing for the Lip ton mustache cup and one day the Resolute had stomach trouble and couldn't fin Ish the heat, aad that meant that the English boat had won a temporary vic tory.
