PAT CALHOUN
FIGHTS TO KEEP
FROM TESTIFYING
HOW WOMEN
WOULD VOTE IF
THEY HAD RIGHT
Hot Stove
Ran FrantiKco, April 29. To save
hiniHi'lf from tin; Mxnni of taklni!
refiiKe behind thf phrase. " 1 can
not answer on t tie Kround that It
would tend to iniTiminate nie, I at
riik Calhoun, presidenl of the Unit
ed Hailroads, Is battling today to pre
vent being piared on the stand in the
trial of his subordinate. Tiry h.
Ford, on a charise of bribery.
The prosecution 'spruiiK U sensa
tional card when, after an Ineffectual
effort to find Thornwell Mullally.
Calhoun's assistant, it placed Cal
houn on the witness stand.
As Calhoun took his seat the de
fense objected to the witness being
questioned. This was conibatted by
the Btate and Calhoun was compelled
to remain on tile stand. ,He refused
to answer ;the first direct question
put to him and then requested per
mission to make an explanation for
declining to answer. The attorneys
then engaged in a heated argument
to decide whether Calhoun could re
fuse to answer under some other
plea than that it might tend to de
grade him.
Upon taking the stand Calhoun
gave his residence as New York, San
th Carolina. Georgia
and Cleveland, Ohio. After giving 1
his true name he was asked:
"When did you come to Ran Fran
cisco after April 18, 1906?"
The defense objected and Calhoun
refused to answer, following his de
clination with a request to be permit
ted to explain.
Special Prosecutor Heney, who had
entered the court room shortly after
Calhoun took the stand, whispered
to Assistant District Attorney O'Gara
that there should he but one reason
the witness would decline to answer,
and after O'Gara had objected to the
request. Attorney A. A. Moore, for
the defense, Jumped into the fray,
declaring that Calhoun was called to
the stand practically to be a witness
against himself, and that the defense
had a right to argue as to whether or
not he should be called as a witness.
After a long argument Judge Law
lor decided that he would drav his
own Inference from the tendency of
the questions put to Calhoun, and
should the witness decline to answer
and the court sustain his declination,
the witness would not be permitted to
give his reason for his refusal to an
swer. This was acceded to by both
sides. Calhoun then addressed the
court, an unusual proceeding, al
though he Is an attorney. He de
clared that he fully stood on his con
stitutional rights to refuse tn an
swer If pressed by the prosecution,
and admitted that should he be sus
taineil by the court in his refusal he
had no right to announce his reason.
He offered, however, to make a state
ment of his attendance as a witness,
but this the court declined to hear.
Late this afternoon Calhoun will
again be placed on the stand and In
terrogated. Calhoun Cues on Stand.
The court then acceded to tho de
fense' request that the mutter of call
ing Calhoun be argued. Moore held
that the calling of Calhoun was vir
tually calling a co-defendant to tes
tify against himself. He declared
that the real purpose of placing Ford
on trial for the third time was to
compel Calhoun to give evidence
against himself, and to give his de
fense in advance of his case. He
denounced the prosecution's action as
the greatest outrage ever perpetrated
before any court, and declared that
Calhoun never feared the Issue and
has always been anxious to go to
trial.
O'Gara conibatted the argument,
afler which the court ordered that
Calhoun must take the stand. Court
adjourned until 3 o'clock.
The following leitor from Mrs.;
Dunuiway, the "mother of the woman
suffrage movement in Oregon," Is;
self-explanatory:
PorilHiid. Or,, April 23. 1 908.1
President Campbell, of Oregon State-;
University, Kugene. Oregon.
"lh-ar Sir and Friend: The un
dersigned, as one of the large major
ity of mothers of Oregon, desires to
express a hope that the appropriation
voted to our State University at the
last session of the legislative assem
bly may be confirmed by the electo
rate at large.
"Of one thing the mothers of Ore
gon are certain, and that is that if!
they could vote, no son or daughter
of theirs would be compelled to go
away from home to complete a higher
education.
"Will you not bring this fact to
the attention of the prominent men
and women of our beloved University
town and ask them while voting! such
of them as can) for the appropriation
they seek to remember also to vote
for the equal right of mothers to vote
upon every vital question at every
election to be held hereafter?
"Respectfully yours for education
and liberty,
"ABIGAIL SCOTT DUNXIWAY."
JAPAN SENDS SHIPS
TO .COERCE CHINA
Pekin, April 29. Claiming that
Its presence has no significance and
that the visit is purely friendly, an
other Japanese cruiser squadron has
arrived in Chinese waters. The Chi
nese do not accept protestations of
friendship and say that the real pur
pose of the visit is to frighten China
into Abandoning the anti-Japanese
boycott, which continues to spread.
The people are furious and are mak
ing threats of all sorts.
The squadron, consisting of four
cruisers, has dropped anchor at
Chlng Wank Tao, near Taku. .
The viceroy at Canton advised the
Japanese admiral to bring his ships
to canton, fearing that their presence
would cause trouble, but the squad
ron will visit Canton anyhow.
Admirals Ijun and Tongakl have
arrived here with their staffs and
will be received by the dowager em
press on Friday.
