Strikebreakers Smash Car Windows
and Ther Report Riots.
San Francisco, May 28. A lively
row developed between the police
and the United Railroads in connec
tion with the withdrawal of cars on
Kentucky street and San Bruno ave
nue lines yesterday, owing to alleged
violence of union sympathizers and
inadequate police protection.
Chief of Police Dinan made pub
lic reports of some of his officers, in
which it is charged that some of tbe
strikebreaking motormen and con
ductors deliberately smashed the
windows in their cars to make it ap
pear that violence had been commit
ted and then reported to the com
pany that the cars had been greeted
with a fusilade of stones.
Captain Duke, of the Southern
Police Station, in whose district are
the lines on which the cars were
withdrawn, in a report made to
Chief Dinan, declared that the re
ports of some of the non-union em
ployes of the United Railroads are
malicious falsehoods, and in support
of which he submitted the reports
of some of his men.
Corporal of Police John Morlarity
reported that he saw Inspector B.
Gorman deliberately break all the
windows of a car on Eighteenth
street yesterday morning with an
iron bar, and declared that Gorman
subsequently reported that the car
had been stoned. Officer A. G. Skelly
made a written report that he saw a
conductor fire a brick through three
windows in his car on San Bruno
avenue. The car was running at
such speed, according to the officer,
he could not board it.
Thornwell Mullally, assistant to
President Calhoun, was very indig
nant when he heard that the police
had made public such reports. He
admitted that some of the company's
employes broke windows in their
cars, but said that it was done in or
der that flying glass might not en
danger the passengers.
It was a comparatively quiet day
About the usual number of cars were
run. There were Isolated instances
of rock-throwing, but no serious
disturbances occurred.
About 7 o'clock last evening a riot
call was sent In from California and
Presidio avenues, where a car had
been derailed and was surrounded
by a crowd. Several rocks were
thrown from behind a hedge which
skirts the road at that point. No one
was injured. Although partial ser
vice has been maintained for nearly
two weeks, the number of passen
gers that patronize the cars daily is
still less than one-third of the nor
mal number carried before the
strike.

"Ireland for the Irish" Boycott
Things English.
London, May 28. When Parlia
ment meets today Sir Henry Camp-bell-Bannerman
will tell the Com
mons what the Cabinet proposes to
do with the Irish Council bill. Every
one expects it will be dropned with
as little ceremony as possible, but
Mr. Balfour, the director of the op
position, is not likely to let it pass
without a chance to remind the coun
try how the Liberals in his opinion,
muddled the business.
The chances are that the govern
ment will do nothing for Ireland this
session, since the members of the
Cabinet resent the repudiation by
their Irish allies of the Irish Coun
cil bill. Mr. Birrell, Chief Secretary
for Ireland, betook himself to the
country before the Dublin convention
and his secretary refuses informa
tion as to his whereabouts to all in
terviewers.
A revival of troublous times for
Ireland after several years of quiet
is discussed. The society called
"Sinn Fein," meaning literally "for
ourselves," composed of the hottest
of the anti-Britons, a majority of
them young men, has gained much
importance lately. Its purpose Is for
Irishmen to refuse to enter into bus
iness or social relations with the
English in Ireland, and as far as
possible for Irishmen to abstain from
entering the employ of Englishmen.
BERRY SEASON OPENS.
Hood River Valley Thronged With
Pickers of Many Kinds.
Hood River For the first time in
two years Hood River will have a
characteristic strawberry season,
with all its attendant rush and ex
citement. For two seasons the river
has not been high enough for bouts
to land at the town and deliever their
merry cargoes of berry pickers from
both up and down the river. This
year there is high water. The boats
began landing at the town today, and
from now on until the season ends,
Indians, school teachers, residents of
Portland and towns in the Wlllam
ette Valley and along the Columbia
River will pour into Hood River for
the berry season. Hood River mer
chants always expect a brisk busi
ness' during the berry season. In
some years more money is realized
from strawberries than apples, and
the returns being quicker, it gets to
circulation at once. Pickers who are
adept and industrious earn from $2
to $3 per day, and some as high as
$3.50. A ride through the valley
during the season shows strawberry
fields everywhere dotted with pick
ers in a variety of picturesque garbs,
from girls in blue overalls to the
stately Indian in his flaming red
blanket or head dress.
Long Detour to Reach Albany.
Albany Though living within 15
miles of Albany, residents of the Santi-
am country are now forced to tiavel
twice that fai to reach this city. Un
safe and damaged bridges are the cause.
Wnen the Sanderson bridge was par
tially washed out in the Santiam floods
last winter, residents of the "Forks of
the Santiam," as that country is local
ly termed, could reach the county seat
via Jefferson. But new that tbe big
wagon bridge at Jefferson has been
closed to traffic by order of the courts
of Linn and Marion counties, the near
est open bridge across the Santiam is
at Lebanon. This makes the distance
to Albany about 30 miles.
STATE HAS LAND TO SELL.
Kelliher Tracts to Be Put on Market
Soon.
Salem The State Land Board has
decided to stand by its act cancelling
siaie juna ceruncates held by A. T.
Kelliher, covering some 30,000 acres
and next week, after the new law
goes into effect, the board will renav
to Kelliher the portion of the pur
chase price already paid, and then
aaveruse tne lands for sale to high
est bidders in tracts of not to exceed
320 acres.
Kelliher was before the board with
a request that deeds be granted to
assignees of certain certificates
which he claimed were granted upon
genuine applications. The request
was denied. He also requested the
privilege of buying for members of
his family some 1,300 acres of land
at $2.50 an acre, in consideration of
which he would give the board the
crulsings of his 30,000 acres of can
celled lands, but this was also re
fused. The board took a strong "stand
pat" attitude, and refused to com
promise or make any agreements,
but will put all cancelled lands up
for sale on equal terms to all. As
some of Kelliher's lands are sup
posed to be quite valuable, there is
likely to be some scrambling for de
sirable tracts when they are offered
for sale, which will probably be early
next month. I
THOUSANDS "SICK" IN KANSAS
Stilf, Applying for S. P. Lands.
Eugene The refusal of the South

by Lane County people for railroad
lands, has not affected the interest

Adrift in a disabled ferry boat in the
swift running waters of the Snake

State Superintendent of Public In
struction, and Miss Louise Johnston,
State Librarian, were snatched from
the jaws of death. The women were

Chicago, May 28. Following a

the Christian Catholic Church, found
it necessary to call for police Inter

tined to overthrow Voliva at the Sep
tember church council.

Druggists Worked to Death Filling
"Prescriptions" for Liquor.
Topeka, Kan., May 27. A large
part of the people of Kansas were
"ill" yesterday. Untold thousands
were victims of all sorts of com
plaints. A record of the "sick" ones
makes Kansas look like an Infirm
ary.
Colncidentally the drug stores did
more business than they have done In
many years probably than ever be
fore. In spite of the epidemic of
variegated diseases the doctors had
a sleepy Sunday, but before night the
drug clerks were wan and worn from
over-work.
All Kansas' used the same medi
cine beer and whisky. Skeptical
persons see a connection between
this condition of affairs and the fact
that the saloons have been closed
and the brewers and whclesnie li
quor dealers driven out of business.
There is just one way to get a
drink In Kansas now go to a drug
store and sign a certificate to the
effect that the beverage Is for medical
purposes. Moreover, the purchaser
must designate the malady with
which he is afflicted. Every disease
known to medical science has its vic
tims, according to these certificates.
Insomnia and indigestion are the
most common, but St. Vitus' dance
is running wild and the palsy is
staggering through the state Chick
enpox is flying around and yellow
fever victims walk the streets, and
nobody seems afraid of caching
from them. Grip, Bright's disease
mumps, bronchitis dandruff, epi
lepsy, typhoid fever, scarlet fever
pneumonia, cuts and burns, deafness
not to mention corns, warts and
bunions for all these things and
many more beer or whisky is the
only sure remedy, guaranteed to
cure or money refunded.
Not in many years has this town
been "jointless." The dens where
Intoxicants were sold openly in vio
lation of law, are closed, locked and
barred.
The consequence is that drug
stores of a certain class are now do
ing a thriving business. The certifi
cates signed by purchaseds are filed
monthly with the Probate Court.

Passed Away Peacefully and Painlessly
at 1:05 P. M. Sunday.
Canton, May 27. Mrs. Wm. Mc-
Kinley, widow of the late President,
died at her home here at 1:05
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
For many years Mrs. McKinley had
been an invalid. She recovered from
the shock of her husband's tragic
death, but it left its mark, and when
it was known that she had suffered a
stroke of paralysis, little hope was
felt that she could survive. The end
came peacefully, almost .impercept
ibly. Mrs. McKinley never knew of
the efforts made to prolong her life,
or the solicitous hope of her sister
and other relatives and friends for
her recovery.
At the McKinley home when death
came there were present Secretary
Cortelyou, Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Bar
bour, Mrs. Sarah Duncan, Mrs. Luth
er Day, Justice and Mrs. William R.
Day, Doctors Porteman and Itixey
and the nurses.
"Mrs. McKinley lived longer than
was expected," said the Secretary.
It was announced last night that
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Loeb will arrive in Canton Wednes
day morning to attend the funeral
services. Vice President Fairbanks
who had often been a house guest o
he McKinleys, is expected to reach
here in time to attend the funeral
services.
The body of Mrs. McKinley will be
placed in the vault in Westlawn
cemetery, which holds also the re
mains of her martyred husband, un
il the completion of the Nationa
Mausoleum on Monument Hill, when
both caskets will be transferred to
receptacles in that tomb From num
erous friends of Mr McKinley, Mrs
Barbour received telegrams of con
dolence on the death of her sister
Among them were telegrams from
President Roosevelt and Vice Presi
dent Fairbanks.
President Will Attend Funeral.
Washington, May 27. While lit
tle hope was entertained here for her
recovery, the news of the death
caused profound sorrow in the Na
tional Capital where she so long
made her home while her husband
was a member of congress and later
President. President Roosevelt learn
ed of her death shortly after 2
o'clock, when he received a telegram
from Secretary Cortelyou, who has
been in Canton since Mrs. McKinley
was first stricken. He immediately
announced that he would attend the
funeral.

Another Week to Get Jury,
Boise, Idaho, May 27 From pres
ent indications it would seem that
another week must elapse before the
taking of testimony can begin in the
trial of William D. Haywood, first of
the alleged "inner .circle" of the
Western Federation of miners to face
a jury to answer to the state's charge
of conspiring to murder ex-Governor
Steunenberg. But 12 members of
the second special venire of proposed
jurymen remain. A 13th talesman
was drawn Saturday afternoon.
San Francisco, May 25. "The
people of San Francisco want acts,
not words. I will only say that we
will make good wherever we accuse"
was the brief comment of William J.
Burns last night, and it was the
only statement made for publication
by the prosecution after it had ac
complished what half of the citizen
ship of San Francisco declared to be
Impossible the indictment of one
of the most powerful magnates
known to Wall street in the person
of Patrick Calhoun.
The prosecution has traced the
$200,000 with which the United
Railroads secured its franchise from
Wall street to the San Francisco
Mint immediately after the big fire
in April, 1906, when the Mint was
used for banking purposes. There
the money remained for a few days,
when it was drawn out piecemeal in
lots of $50,000, converted Into cur
rency and paid over to Ruef and by
him passed on to the Mayor and
the Supervisors. The evidence is
strengthened by bits of conversation,.
records or conferences at the office
of Tirey L. Ford, attorney for the
United Railroads. The fact that the
Mayor received $50,000 for signing
the ordinance granting the overhead-
trolley permit was learned through
the testimony of Ruef.
Fourteen indictments were re
turned charging Calhoun, Mullally.
Ford, Abbott, Schmitz and Ruef
jointly with the bribery of the Sup
ervisors. Seventeen Supervisors were
bribed, so It may therefore be seen
that three of the indictments were
held in reserve. This Is the Heney
method. The 14 indictments will
act as a sort of advance guard to
draw the fire of the defense.
If the defense succeeds in shooting
any holes in them, the three in re
serve will be altered to make them
impregnable, taking advantage of
the facts brought out.
Judge Coffey announced, after
running his eye over the indictments
that he would fix bail in the sum of
$10,000 on each of the 89 counts.
He gave the accused until 11 o'clock
today to furnish bonds and remarked
that he would accept in lieu thereof
cash bail of $5000 on each count.
Assurance was given that pending
the arrangement of bail no arrests
will be made by the prosecution, so
the nine men accused of the giving
or taking of bribes are at liberty on
their own recognizance until 11
o'clock today.
The statement was made unoffi-
ially that all but $140,000 of the
entire amount of the bonds of $890,
000 will be forthcoming at the ap
pointed hour today.
Schmitz, in addition to $50,000 se
curity he has already given to se
cure his liberty pending the trial of
the five counts of extortion brought
against him and Ruef jointly, will
have to put up $160,000 In bonds.
Ruef will have to put up $140,000.
but, inasmuch as he now is and for
more than two months has been a
prisoner without any immediate hope
of release, it Is understood that he
will make no attempt to give ball.
It is said, Indeed, that under the
circumstances and in view of the fact
that he turned state's evidence, he
prefers to remain the prisoner of
Elisor Biggy.
President Glass, of the Telenhone
Company, already has given bonds in
the sum of $90,000. He will have
to put up $20,000 more to retain hia
liberty.
Halsey has put up $110,000 in
bonds, covering the 11 indictments
previously found against him. He
will have to put up $10,000 addition
today.
When Foreman Oliver, of the
grand Jury, filed the 19 indictments
In court, he stated that these were
