Washington. Nov. 6 The question
of United States Interference in the
Turkey-Italian war, to prevent further
barbarities by the Italians, has been
put up to President Taft, following
Turkey's appeal to tho American gov
ernment for aid.
Although the sultan's nppoal took
the form of practically a demand, In
the name of hnmanl'y, to stop the!
Italian atrocities. It Is believed tho j
United States will be slow to act in j
the matter, as tho stato department!
he-tab's to step into the European I
situat'on, until the European powers,
directly interested, take soma action.

treatment of non-combatants, women
and children, which Turkey nsked the
United States to ed. The i-tate de

Judge. P.ordwell allowed tho chal

tho protestations of tho prosecution.
Andrews said that he could not be

unions and believed that the Times

unions were Indirectly responsible for
tho destruction. Ho stated that many
of his friends were In tho building at
tho time of tho explosion.
The prosecution maintained that
Andrews was not personally bias

Pendleton was yesterday visited
with the worst wind storm In many
months and us a result many minor
dumagts are reirortod from about the
lily. After a morn'r.g of intermittent
shower'', the stoi-i; wept down upon
tho oi.y shortly after 1 o'clock and
continued with unauated fury during
tho retutiinder of the afternoon and
far itit i the n'ght. The air was laden
v.- th dust, as tho moisture from the
showti.s quickly evaporated . in tho
wind.
To such violence did it attain that
the automobile belonging to Dr. I. U.
Temple jus carried backwards for a
block along Main street, on to the
curb of the sidewalk ar.d stopped just
before crashing Into 'me plate glass
window of thj Wonder store. Tho
machine haj oeen left standing in
front of the linker furniture store
with the top up. The top served as
a sail and the wind, catching it, car
ried It ra;Mly along.'
Ono of the large windows In

street and a number of windows In
dwelling houses failed to withstand
tho unaccustomed vlo'onco. Fences

places anil me wires or me leie-

erable extent, the service being se
riously Interfered with.
Reports from other eastern Oregon
and eastern Washington points Indi
cate that the storm was general and,
according to arrivals from Portland,
It even reuched as far west as that
c'ty.
HUNTS WITHOUT A
LICENSE; FINED
It cost Thomas Coll;s, a Greek rail
road striker at Umatilla 37.50 for the
pleasure of shooting one Mallard duck
fur the reason that he hi 1 neglected
to procure a license entitling him to
the privilege of bagging game with
out molestation. He was arrested
Saturday by Frank Gerard. deputy
game warden under H. F. Averill,
and was let off this afternoon with
the miumuiii fine of $ 2 r and costs
Thomas Manros was arrested with
Collis, but as there was but one duck
in tfie'r joint possession. only ono
man could be convicted. The Greek's
fellow union men made an endeavor
ti
save him from the vengeance of!
the law by presorting a petition sign
ed by fi men for hi release on the
protin I that he was Ignorant of tho
law and would be inconvenienced by
a fine on account of the strike leav
ing h in out of employment. Tho
deputy, however, hna no option In
the matter and turned tho man over
to the higher authorities.
Women Cannot Vote.
San Francisco, Nov. 8. California
women gem rally will not be perm tied
to participate in elections held this
year, owing to a state law that regis
tration must close 40 days before elec
tion. Women cannot vote at the munici
pal election here next Tuesday for
that reason. The I.os Angeles muni
cipal election, which takes place De
cember C, permits time for women to
legally register. Several small towns
are sim larly affected, but in tho ma
jority of California cities women will
not vote at munlt pal elecfons this
year. The difference Is caused by mu
nicipal charters fixing different elec
tion dates.
Excitement Too Much.
El Centro, Cal., Nov. C. Excite
ment caused by watching tho nutomo
bilo racers as they passed through Kl
Centro on their way from Los An
geles to Fhoenix, Ariz, proved too
much for H. L. Hobdy, an El Centro
business man. Hodby returned home
after the last racer had passed and
shortly afterward succumbed to an
attack of heart failure.

Mexico City. Nov. 6. Lavish pomp,
splendor border ng upon the barbaric
and all the show of which the Mexi
cans are capable of making, today
temporarily veneered the Internal dis
sentient of tho republic of Mexico;
when Francisco Madero conqueror;
of former Pres'dent l'oriiri Diaz,
again -t whom he led 'a successful re- i
la-llion, was Inaugurated as ch ef ex-I
ccutlvo of the repub'ie in this city, j
wirle at the same time throe distinct,
revolutionary plots are toothing in i
different parts of th'; country. I
President Madero drove sin I ngly
through the sti- ct:s of the ii.y, un
der escort of an army numbering
morn than one thousnnl troops, to
the chamber of deputies where the
Inaugural services began at high
noon.
In an nddre s which he delivered I
for the first time as president of the
nation, M.idero toid his twenty thou
sand listeners that ho would prom'se
them a re:gn of peace for at least
three months and was wildly cheered
that ho would eventually make the
ontin. country permanently peaceful.
With the conclusion of his address,
brass bands started playing the . na
tional anthem and the vast horde of
people gathered, joined in singing
afttr which the crowd made its way
to a place where a big rreo banquet
was si rved, under orders of tho new
chief.
Tonight a huge inaugural ball will
be given in the governor's palace and
a reception tendered the new presi
dent Provisional President De la
P.arra, leaves tonight for an extended
tour of Europe and a demonstration
will be accorded him by the public,
with whom he is exceptionally popu
lar. It is expected that one of the first
acts of President Madero will be the .
liberation of all political prisoners!
now confined in various Mexican
prisons on condition that they will im- ;
med'ately leave Mexico. j
Many of these prisoners are royal
ists, whose recent demonstrations for
General Reyes were too enthusiastic
for the fir-w chief.
General Gomez is now an exile in .
San Antonio. Texas-, and with the de
parture of those now in prison. Ma-j
dero believes that he will be rid of
h s most dangerous political enemies.

informed a number of railroad men
that th house, wife and child of the

he terrified many farm women by his

W.illula, where he frightened the wife
of the foreman. He was Induced to
get on the train for Pendleton but es

Foreman Hart came here yesterday
and entered a complaint and this with

Is Dangerous Man.
Twice within a week last June, it
will be remembered. Tanatas ran
amuck here in Pendleton and came
near killing someone. The first time
he was arrested by Chief Gurdane
while skulking down Cottonwood
street with a revolver in his hand. He
was released upon the prom'se of sev
eral of his countrymen to take him
back to his native coun' y but a few
days later escaped from the r custody
in the west end of the ci.y and was
captured by Officer Ed Stansberry
after he had fought the policeman off
for some time with a knife.
He was declared insane at that time
an 1 ordered committed to the asylum
but once again he was released upon
tho prom'se to transport him to
Greece. He was placed on the train
with some othr Creeks and nothing
had brrn heard of him since until his
appearance in the northern part of the
cou lit y.
