Iler Change J I or Story In Order to
FVtiwpo Iniprlnoiimcnt Xorris Girl
Tells of Events Unprompted.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 14. Af
fording Btriklng contrast to Miss War
rington, both physically and in her
frank, unabashed method of testify
ing, Lola Norrls, a remarkably attract
ive girl of 20 took the stand at the
Diggs trial, beginning her part of the
story upon which Indictments against
Diggs and Camlnetti, her companions
in the escapade, were based.
The cross examination and redirect
Interrogation of the Warrington girl
concluded shortly before noon, the Je
fenso again remorselessly trying to
get whatever salacious details were
overlooked hitherto. Practically the
last testimony by Miss Warrington
was a complete refutation of the in
sinuations of the defense that the two
girls were persuaded to color their
testimony in the government's case in
order to secure immunity from pros
ecution. R. Coghlun, for the defense, asked
Miss Warrington if it was not true
she had a conference with McNab be
fore she went to the feJeral grand
Jury and was advised that "unless
she told the truth she would be pla
in jail and held as a witness." V
emphasis on the "No" the witness
nled the Imputation of coercion on
the part of the government prose
cutors. , .
It was Just previous to this thr
Coghlan announced to Judge Vf
Fleet that the opening statement f
the defense would be based on the
contention of the defense that the
Warrington girl was persuaded to col
or her testimony to save herself from
prosecution under the juvenile act on
a charge of contributing to the de
pendency of Diggs' and Camlnettl's
minor children.
With head erect, and waving aside
the preferred nupport of a friendly
arm, facing the crowded court room
with a frank, unabashed gaze, Miss
Norrls then began her recital. Her
voice did not falter and she did not
even hang her head, as Miss War
rington had done, even under the sear
ching questions ns to the relations of
the four. Her 'testimony was ex
plicit and needed scarcely any coach
lng from Prosecutor Roche, who con
ducted the examination for the gov
ernment. 200 PULLMAN CARS
FOR THE ROUND-UP
Fully two hundred Pullman cars,
will be run out of Portland over the
O.-W. R. & N. lines during the three

H. L. WILSON HITS
BRITISH OFFICE
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. Henry
Lane Wilson, the furloughed ambas
sador to Mexico, issued a statement
here attacking the recent statement
accredited to the Brllsh foreign office,
declaring that Great Britain had rec
ognized the Huerta government as a
provisional government only; that its
recognition was prompted by a de
sire to contribute to the restoration
of order and also because Wilson's
congratulatory speech on the occasion
of the reception of the Mexico City
diplomatic corps by Huerta.
Mr. Wilson said:
"If this statement really emanated
from the British foreign office it is
at variance with It's traditions and
with the character that It has main
tained before the world for two cen
turies I doubt the genuineness of
the statement, as it is a pure subter
fuge unworthy of the British foreign
office. As there existed at the time
only a provisional government in Mex
ico the government of Great Britain
could naturally recognize nothing but
a provisional government which It
did, In exactly the same manner and
practically the same phraseology as
other European governments."

his own valuable collection and he
has exhibited at numerous other
fairs and festivals in the north
west, but he has never yet shown his
complete exhibit as he intends doing

anyone having curious and relics of
frontier days add them to his own
collection for the occasion.

Acting upon a petition presented by

passed the first resolution calling for
plans and specifications for the im
provement of Water street from Main
to Vincent, Vincent street from Water

cost, together)' with the lots, parts of
lots and parcels of land against which
the cost would be taxed.
The petition was signed by four
teen property owners and asked for
the improvement providing a satisfac
tory sewer is first laid. The council
has previously passed an ordinance
calling for a new sewer on Lewis
street and the repair of the Water
street sewer. Many of the property
owners, it Is said, refused to sign any
petition although declaring them
selves for the Improvement, while a
number of others took a neutral po
sition and agreed not to sign either a
petition or a remonstrance.

ENUNCfATOR SECUREb
FOR THE ROUND-UP
Announcements of the events, win
ners and performers by an electric
enuneiator will be one of the added
features of the Round-up next month,
the action of the board of directors
last evening in closing a deal with the
Oregon Enuneiator Co. of Portland
assuring this new convenience for the
spectators. Pendleton will thus be
able to boast the second open-air park
In the United States equipped in this
manner, the White Sox ball park of
Chicago being the first to Install the
enuneiator.
In order that all sections of the
grandstand and bleachers can be
reached clearly and distinctly by the
transmitted announcements, 45 of the
Instruments, known as the multa
Musola machines, will be Installed.
15 In the grandstand and 15 In front
of each of the bleacher sections. Each
will be provided with an amplifier so
that the sound will carry well. The
company will send a special man to
Install the apparatus and to superin
tend it during the three days. In
connection with the enuneiator, a
phonograph attachment will be sup
plied and records will be played be
fore the show and during the same.
The installation of the enuneiator
is in line with the policy of the as
sociation to place the comfort and
pleasure of spectators above every
thing else. It was the same policy
which caused the directors to decide
against allowing any hawkers or ven
ders Inside the park other than those
who supply the crowd with pro
grams and soft drinks.

GRONNA OPPOSED
TO FREE WHEAT
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. Dlscuss

the proposed free listing of wheat in
particular enlivened the tariff discus
sion today In the senate. Senator
Grcrna of North Dakota proposing In
lieu ol free wheat a duty of six cents
a bushel.
Action on the amendment was de
ferred owing to prolonged debate, a
fact that has aroused democratic
leaders to a realization of the neces
sity for some action to speed up con
sideration of the measure If possible.
To this end a democratic caucus has
been called for tomorrow when a pro
posal will bo made for an agreement
that r recess of congress be taken un
til November 1 after the passage of
te tt.riff bill In the senate and the
currency bill In the house. This, some
democrats assert would Induce repuh
lutif to cut short discussion of the
tariff and would also overcome dem
ocratic opposition to currency legisla
tion at the spe-lal session.

2 GOVERNORS ON JOB
Friends of Sulzer Declare He Is Pre
pared for all Moves la Waiting to
See What Glynn Will Do to Enforce
His Authority Ca.se WU1 Probably
Go Into Court.
(By John Nevin )
ALBANY. Aug. 14. Two eovornnr
of New York are on the job today.
Despite his impeachment by the as
sembly for alleged malfeasance in of-
i.ce. uovernor Sulzer la in undisputed
possession of the executive mansion
and the executive chamber of th,
capital, while Lieutenant Governor or
- .
governor uiynn, occupied a room off
the senate chamber where the execu
tive ukases will be issued. No con
flicts and no physical clash have oc
curred between the rival governors.
Adherents of Sulzer declare he is pre
pared for all moves and is waiting to
see what Glynn will do to enforce his
claimed authority.
It Is probable Glynn will not act
until the legislature convenes Tues
day when probably he will send In
the name of Abram Elkus to the sen
ate to be confirmed as state commis
sioner of labor. Elkus will be con
firmed and his appointment will pave
the way for court proceedings to test
the legality of Glynn's title to the
governorship.
Sulxer, however, will not wait for
Glynn to act. Before that he plana
o pardon a convict at Sing Sing and
if th- pardon is not recognized by the
warden of the penitentiary he will at
on.v aplc-the lower courts to enforce
it and eventually will take the case to
the supreme court of the United
States, if necessary.
Mrs. Sulzer Is the most pathetic
ngure in the whole case. No matter
what the outcome, she has earned the
nlrr.iration of both her husband's
fri nds and foes.
Resolution is Served.
Displaying open contempt. Sulzer
accepted McCabe's service of the im
peachment resolution at noon.
The executive offices were crowded
when the impeachment papers were
served. Senate Clerk McCabe left
immediately afterward. After the ser
vice of the papers Sulzer. insisted
they would make no difference In hla
status and told the United Press his
only real care was regarding his wife.

politics.

said he would have him out of
office in six. weeks. That was
April 13.

kins files suit asralnst Governor
