Washington, April 21. Confirming
reports that Japan had recalled all its
war vessels from the eastern Pacific
near American waters, the Japanese
embassy here today announced that the
warships were sent across the ocean for
the sole purpose of hunting German
craft. As nil German vessels have been
swept from the seas, it was stated, the
recall followed. The embassy added
that the warships at Turtle bay would
also return to Japan as soon as the

Big Meeting
like sixly-five of the important cities
of the United States.
"After very rigid investigation, it
was decided to employ the Town De
velopment Compnny to undertake the
details of this work, ami the accom
plishment of this long-desired move
seems now assured.
"I believe thnt one strong body,
embracing the public activities of tins
community, will be a power for good
which cannot be realized nt this time.
We have come to tho parting of the
ways of the former methods of doing
business in a more or less haphazard
way, and it Is my desire that an in
stitution will be established here in
Portlund whose influence will be
strongly felt, not only in our immedi
ate vicinity, but throughout the en
tire Pacific ( oast. We have the men
here who ciin do wonders when prop
erly nroused, nnd I have never ques
tioned their desire or ability to heli,
and 1 nsk the earnest, consideration
nnd co-operation of every citizen of
our city who has the welfare of his
home town at heart, to nixt in this
movement in n broad-minded way, n
nil are needed by each one."
It is certainly very generous of the
ubove mentioned gentlemen to devote
the time requite,! to make this trip
to Halem for the benefit of Salem's
people, as they ure among the most
prominent nnd busiest men in the city
of Portland.
Large Attendance Assured,

of Portland in this respect, and It Is
the object of the visit of these gentle
men to tell t Portland's experience.

COLONEL THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
BY BOND P. OEDES
(Unvted Press Staff Correspondent.)
Syracuse, N. Y., April 21. Hringing
his fist down upon the firm of the wit
ness chair with rcso'inding smacks, his
teeth flashing aud his indictments shot
out in crisp, .jerky sentences, Colonel
Theodore Kuosevelt tiway portrayed
William Humes, .lr., us a political boss
of the most powerful aud dominant
type.
The colonel resumed the witness
stand today III his own defense in the
4."li,on0 libel suit brought against him
by Hnrues. After the court had ruled
thut the former president must cd-ifiue
bis testimony to evidence having an
nctinl bearing on the rase, the colonel
launched forth into nn attack upon
his political enemy with true Itoosc
velti.iu vigor.
He told how Harm's had inherited
his hold on the republican machine of
the state of New York from the Into
Senator Plutt. ami bow be had strength
ened it and used the organization to its
fullest possibilities. How Haines hud
worked with "Chief' Murphy and oth
er Tammany Hull lenders to defeat leg
islutioii at Albunv wns also leciunted
by Kuosevelt in support of statements
to the same effect upon which the
Unmet suit is based,
Barnes Sits Unmoved.
Hai nes sirt unmoved bv the nttiick di
rected ngainst him iluiing the colonel's1
testimony. They sometimes lured each j
other but neither the colonel imr Haniosl
butted nn eye. K ideally their glances
never met, as the colonel gave what he
claims to be direct evidence of Humes'
corrupt methods or lead letters which
he had received from the repobliiuii
"liot" in support of his contentions.
In one letter rend by the cn'onel,
Haines declared:
"The Ideas of gelling rid uf bosses
are absurd so lung as we have party
ortianintion. The people do the elect
ing iuit the paily diould be fiee to
I nunc up their pic.posals to the peo
ple." Itnrevett ilecbued Haines bitteilt
opus I Charles '.. Hughes, now a justice
ol' the I'nited Stntes supreme court,
but foimeily gnirrmn of New Vork.
Machine Would Not Tolerate.
"Hut the maciiiue ttnuld not toler-ite
it," the cijonel added.
touting from a 'elter he received
fioui llnines expressing opposition to
diiei-t priinniies. the colonel read:
"If the direct muni nation plan is
ever adopted it w ill lead to untold evils
nnd place in office the cheaper kind
of legislators. ' '
The cn'onel rode rough shod over th"
objections interposed by attorneys for
llarues as he pro'-ei .led with his lesti
nionv. I.owvers Would jimp to their
feet culling for a hull, but tile coloiiel
went right ahead, mooring interrup
tions, until stoppid by the court. He
evidently thoroughly enjoyed appearing
as a witnest.
Roosevelt Enjoys Occasion.
Although the court room was jammed

STINGING INDICTMENTS
to capacity with politicians nnd fash
iomibly-gowued women, extreme quiet
prevailed during tho time tho colonel
was on the stand. His sharp, piercing
vrtico could be heard in every corner of
tho room.
.Ill dice Andrews caught up with the
colo.'icl long enough to rule out letters
which be received from llflrues in 1IH)H
as to the candidacy of Hughes. He
held these letters to the colonel imma
terial. The court also excluded testi
mony ns tit conversations between
Kuosevelt and Haines regarding Hughes
except as they might prove Harm's to
be a "boss." Itoowvelt demnnded
that he be permitted to define "boss"
and "dominatiou," but. the court also
ruled against him on this point.
Tells Political History,
"In hum," continued the colonel,
"Senntor Piatt n-lied me if there were
any mon I wished to receive special
consideration in the appointment oi
committees in the legislature, 1 ex
pressed surprise that committees were
bein'g prepared before a speaker was
chosen. Piatt answered me by snying
that no one would be speaker unless he
was ready tn carry out the wishes of
the organization. When J suw Hnrues
I told In in that Kind of government led
to corruption and evils.''
" The reply of llarnes to this," said
the colonel, "un-, that this scheme of
government was the only one that could
exist under the paitv system, mi l thnt
withnit bosses tlicie could be no party
government.
"I told Haines I wouldn't let any
one choose luv appointees,'1 Kuosevelt
d-'ohied, "llanos answered that the
oriiil ii-utioii must Keep its control, In
I'.lus I told lianies my personal sym
pathies were itli him, rather than with

TELL OF RELATIONS
Juror Declares He Believes
Case Is a Mixture of
Politics, Excused
Los Angeles, Cal., April 21. Girlish
ly dad and with her dark hair hanging
over her shoulders in curls, giving the
appearance of extreme youth, Edith
Serkin, 17, took the witness stand to
day to testify in the case of Chief of
Police C. E. Sebastian, who is charged
with contributing to her dependency.
Miss Serkin was the first witness
called after the iurv had been com
pleted shortly before noon. Examined
bv District Attorney Woolwine, the
hild was led to recite the details of
alleged visits she made to the Arizona
lodging house adjoining Central police
station with Hebastinn and her sister,
Mrs. Lillian Pratt, who is charged
jointly with the chief.
Fixes Time Of VUtt.
Finally fixing the time of a specific
visit as about a week before last
Christmas, the prosecution demanded
that the girl tell what happened in the
lodging house.
At this point recess was taken until
late this afternoon.
Witness chairs were filled at tho
opening of the session in the most part
by women. Mrs. Lillian Pratt, being
tried jointly with the cnief, occupied
the first chair in tho row.
As the old panel of jurors had been
exhausted by the attorneys last night,
a new panel consisting of a portion of
tho panel from another department was
called. T. B. MeComas, the first to be
examined caused a mild sensation by
ileelnrine that he helievod had the
chief been a privBte citizen the ease
now pending would never have been
broutrbt.
"1 believe this is a mixture of
politics," he said, "and it would re
ouirc a good denl of evidence to remove
that belief from my mind."
He wns challenged by the stale and
excused.
Response For Additional Mil
lion Men Is Good-Conscription
Not Necessary
London, April ill. Indications thai
the government has decided upon a
campaign designed to arouse greater
patriotism among the workmen of the
country, rather than resort to drastic
liquor legislation nre seen here today,
lollowing the speech of I'rcniicr As
quit h before the workers of .Newcastle.
The premier refrained from any rel-i
ereti'.'c to the question of drink, but ap
pealed for a greater production of war
munitions. He made no citicism of the
workmen but addressed a strong patri
otic appeal to the men who must keep
the fighting forces supplied In th"
field.
Discussion ns to barring alcoholic
drinks from the refreshment rouiu cat
the house of coinnionn was not expected
to be tenewcil today, when il lagged to
such an extent yestetdny that the pro
posnl was finally temporarily iiIuiii
doii'd. The possiliilitv uf conscription is now
believed to have been eniiielv icinoicd
by the response to I. onl Kitchener's
call for his second army of a nullum
