leaders from five different non-strik-Ing
brotherHbods , r-et a. committee
"from the railway executives. .

ment would be effected at once, bu
' tnere was an undertone oz optimism
that common ground would be reached
which would furnish the basis of a
settlement later on. . -
If the conference collapses the bur
den of settling the strike or of, taking
such relief, measures as will prevent
'complete Daralvsis of rail traffic will
be thrown back upon the government

tion initiating the salmon J fishing
measure la . entered . by Secretary of,
State Koaer In hie formal answer to
the complaint filed by the state fish
and game commission in an effort to
enjoin Kozer from placing the measure
on the November ballot. Kozer's an
Bwer to the. complaint admits receiving
the petition, but declares that there la
no fraud apparent In the petition as
presented to htm- The measure is in
itiated by U. a. Green of Oregon City,
who also Is party defendant tojthe ac
tion. . , j
That the,' salnion' fishing and propa
gation amendment was not conceived
In good faith, bat rather as a means
of prostituting the initiative for' pri
vate gain, ia the allegation of the com
plainants who-seek to keep the measure
off the ballot by the Injunction route.
- Carl D. Shoemaker, master fish war
den, has openly charged that after; this
initiative petition waa filed "an offer
was made by proponents of the peti
tion, for a consideration of 810.000, to
point out enough illegal signatures to
invalidate . the measure."
Since the -measure was' filed, a check
of the signatures is said . to have re
vealed enough evidence to warrant this
action. It is, expected that testimony
in the ease will be taken next week.

wife of a superintendent of construc
tion, who was questioned yesterday
regarding hia relations with Mrs. Ivy
Giberson. the fascinating blonde pris
oner. 1 j

affair today she carried a handful of
letters singing of love and clandestine
rendezvous fin nearby cities which are
alleged to have been written by Mrs.
Giberson to Ganun.
LOVE LETTERS FOUND
This is the second batch of love
letters that has come to the surface
In the investigation of the murder. The
first letters were found yesterday in
Mrs. Gibef son's v bureau- drawer and
had been -received by her. They were
written in a firm masculine hand.
The two batches of letters reveal
relations of the writers dating back
to April, 1921. Ganun has told the
Authorities -that Mrs. Giberson waa
merely, a friend, but that they often
vent automobile, riding together. He
added, however, "that sher was as
straight a woman aa ever lived."

the prosecution, , Mr- Jayne. said that
he regarded Ganuo, a very, material

Detectives are looking Into the sig
nificance of an empty chloroform hot
tie found in the , Giberson home. ' Upon
this discovery bad developed the theory
that Giberson was drugged before he
was shot, '
Unshaken by two days .of severe
grilling. Mrs. Giberson stuck to ' her
original - story of' her husband being
slain by robbers..
