Steps Taken Which Are Liable to Pre
cipitate a Revolution.
Budapest, Feb. 19. The Hungarian
parliament was dissolved today by
order of the emperor, with a great
display of military force but little dis
turbance. Hungary will now be governed by
an absolute regime, similar to that
prevailing after the failure of the
revolution of 1849.

tion of a long standing quarrel be
tween the crown and coalition lead
ers In parliament . over the recogni
tion of Hungary's right to liberty.

point In the destinies of the dual
monarchy of Austria and Hungary,

Today everything has apparently
been tranquil within the Tribune of
flee, and there are no new develop'
ments In the fight between Mr. Dodd
and his fellow stockholders in the
company. Since Dr. Vincent assum
ed charge as receiver he has rein
stated both Mr. Dodd and Arnold
Sheuermnn, circulation manager, as
member of the force. All of the
others have been retained, and con
sequently all are at work again.
As to how long the receivership
will continue nothing seems to be
known. No time has been set for the
hearing of the suits recently filed by
the attorneys for the two factions.
This afternoon A. D. Stlllman, attor
ney for the employes, said he would
file an answer to the suit brought by
the opposing side within a week, and
might do so at once. The Dodd
forces have 10 days In which to an
swer the complaint made by the em
ploye-dlrectors. According to the
employes and their attorney, their
suit will be carried through and' the
caso fought to a finish. On the
other hand, Mr. Dodd and his attor
neys seem to regard the matter as
practically setttled and that further
court proceedings will be perfunct
ory.
It Is rumored this afternoon that
Dodd has secured sufficient backing
and will endeavor to purchase the
stock held by the Insurgents. Wheth
er he will be successful In doing so
remains to be seen.

P. R. C. WON THE GAME.
Score of Saturday's ItnNchull Content
Was 15 to 7.
In the first baseball game for the
season on the local grounds, the
Athena Yellow Kids went down to
defeat before the swift playing of the
Pendleton Business college boys by a
score of IB to 7, Saturday afternoon
Although the local team outplayed
their opponents from the start. It was
by no means a one-sided game. The
visitors returned to Athena on the
evening train.
Many good plays were made during
the game by the P. B. C. boys, Leslie
Strain and Frank Swaggart scoring a
home rune and the exceedingly good
playing by Clark, White pitched an
exceptionally good game which was
largely responsible for Athena' down
fall. In fact, the entire team played
good ball, but perhaps the feature of
tha game waa the long running catch

RAYMOND RESIDENCE BURGLARIZED.
While R. Raymond and family were absent recently from their
home on the south Main street hill, the place was broken Into and
the house ransacked. Entrance was secured through the back door,
and apparently the entire house was searched by the thieves.
Among the things known to have been stolen were a shotgun valued
at $60, some rings, Jewelry and other small articles. The contents of
one trunk was plied upon the floor by the burglars, who evidently
thought It contained something of value.
When the family returned home from Seattle they found their
place In confusion and the police were notlflcl of the burglary.
However, no clue has yet been found to the culprits, and as the work
had seemingly been done some time before discovered, the case was
made difficult.

ROMESEEKERS'
KINDREDS TRANSFER HERE
FOR NORTHERN DISTRICTS.
A Majority Seem to Be Capable, En
ergetic Men Ready to Accept Op
portunities Only a Small Propor
tion Are Women and CliJIdren All
Are From Missouri River Points.
and Come With the Fixed Intention
of Locating In the Northwest-
Small Proportion Have Any Money,
The first wave of tourists for the
spring season of 1906 reached Pen
dleton over the O. R. & N. on Sun
day morning when about 50 transfer
red from the main line to the Spo
kane branch.
This morning the second install
ment was received when over 100
were transferred here, requiring an
extra coach on No. 8, the northbound
train, to accommodate the crowd go
lug toward Spokane.
Most of the first rush of tourists
are laboring men who expect to work
on some of the railroad projects now
under way in the Inland empire and a
majority of them seem to be capable,
energetic men ready to grasp the op
portunity offered In the northwest.
Among the 100 which transferred
this morning there were perhaps 35
women and children and some few
had already made arrangements
through relatives or friends in east
ern Washington to either rent land
or work on farms In that state.
All the first tourists passing here
are from Missouri river points and
all predict a very heavy travel to the
west this season. They say hundreds
of families are willing and anxious to
try the northwest states for a new
start nther than remain crowded In
the dense centers of population in the
central states, where the labor mar
ket Is glutted, wages forced to a min
imum and living expenses Increasing
year by year.
Very few people with money are
coming west with the first rush.i
Some of those passing today had
small sums, ranging from $500 to
J2500, but most of the mwere empty
handed and expect to make a start
in the west.
Very few of them had received any
literature concerning Oregon, about
the only thing soon in that line being
some Lewis and Clark fair circular
or railroad advertisement. AH of
them were anxious for facts concern
ing the state and eagerly sought In
formation on Its resources.
Not one Interviewed by the East
Oregonlan expressed the Intention of
returning to the east. All are coming
west to stay if It Is possible to make
a living here.
The present cheap rate continues
until April 7, during which time It Is
expected that 20,000 tourists will
come Into the northwest; states.
There are at the present time near
ly 6000 Americans, men, women and
children. In China. This Includes
missionaries, tourist, government
representative, people In business,
and all others.
