TAPPED The SUGAR SACK
Thief Adopts Unique Method Of Re
pIenIshing Family Larder.

While engaged in moving shipment
of sugar from the warehouse east of
the w. & c. r. depot yesterday, dray-
men employed by the Lowe Transfer
company, discovered that some enter
prising thief had adopted unique meth
DDS of replenishing his family larder.
By crawling beneath the building the
thief with the aid of brace and bit
bored a big hole through the floor di-
rectly beneath a big sack of sugar.
When the Vorkmen came to this par
ticular sack they were surprised to
find it half gone. An investigation re-
suited in their discovering the hole
and a further investigation revealed
the methods employed by the bright
thief in robbing the warehouse. By
going ON the theory that the thief was
thoroughly familiar with the premises
the police soon spotted the guilty party
and arrests may follow. The man is
married and has one child, but out of
respect for his family prosecution may
be dropped.

To Use All Steel Cars.

PHILADELPHIA, June Am or
der for $50 all-steel passenger cars for
the New York Central railroad has
been received by the American Car &
Foundry company of Berwick. 1t is
the first time that an American rail-
road has had made steel cars for pas
senger traffic with the single exception
of the New York underground road. 1t
is expected, however, that the present
wooden cars will be generally super
ceded by steel cars before long. The
steel cars are stronger than wooden
cars; they are non -combustible; they
do not shatter in wrecks, and they are
said by experts to be safer and more
econmical in every way.

WOMEN'S STATE federation over
Exciting Time 0ccasoned Over the Election Of Officers
Resolutions Of Thanks We're Passed by Convention

The convention of the Federation of
Women's clubs took a sudden turn
yesterday afternoon from the quiet
and decorous manner of conducting
business and for nearly three hours
it required all of the energy of Mrs.
G. G.. Brown, the president, to keep
egates should have the privilege OF
the floor. The change was brought
about when the election of officers oc-
Cured, and many times during the af-
ternoon there were dozens of the wom-
EN- on the floor clamoring for chance
to make a motion or to speak on the
questions that were being debated.
Under the rules of the Federation
all nominations are made by ballot,
and the three persons receiving the
highest are the candidates.
When it came to the nomination of
a president, Miss Sue Lombard of
North Yakima, received a majority Of
the votes cast, with Mrs. J. B. Bla-
lock of Spokane second, and Mrs. w.
L. Adams of Hoquaim third.
1t was evident from this ballot that
Miss Lombard would be the choice of
the convention for it's presiding officer
and a motion was made to suspend the
rules and declare the woman elected.
Discussion Begins.
This brought forth an animated dis
cussion from the delegates and at
times there were many Of the women
speaking on the question at the same
time, and it was with difficulty that
President Brown finally secured Or
der.
The election ballot was ordered
which resulted in the choice of Miss
Lombard, the vote being: Miss Lom-
bard 81, Mrs. Blalock "a, Mrs. Adams
2.
For corresponding secretary there
was no opposition to Mrs. I. H. Dills
of North Yakima, and notwithstanding
the convention had voted not to sus-
pend the rules, she was elected by the
secretary casting the ballot for her.
For treasurer the fight was between
Mrs. William Church and Mrs. Will
liams of Spokane, resulting in the
election of Mrs. Church, who is daugn-
ter of Selucius Garfield, at one time
delegate to congress from the territory
of Washington.
1t took two ballots to decide on a
choice of first trustee, Mrs. Philip T.
Beacher of Spokane, finally defeating
Mrs. T. A. Parrish of Seattle, by a
vote of IS to "a.
Big Contest of the Day
The big contest of the day came
when the convention began to ballot
for five women to represent the fed
Grafton at the biennial convention of
the National Federation.
Another effort was made to suspend
the rules and nave the secretary cast
the ballot for the first three nominees.
but it failed. Miss Sue Lombard, how
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1905-06-02

ever, was afterwards chosen in that
manner, it being the opinion of a ma
jority of the delegates that it was
proper to elect the new president of
the Federation by that method. Janet
Moore of Olympia, was also chosen by
the secretary being instructed to cast
the ballot for the convention, but as
the question of right was again raised
Miss Moore moved that here election
be reconsidered. This was carried by
a unanimous vote and she was elected
on the third ballot taken.
On the fourth ballot, Mrs. Josephine
Preston Of Walla Walla, was the
choice. On the seventh ballot Mrs. E.
S. Elwood was elected and then began
prolonged contest for the selection
of the fifth representative. The nomi-
nees were Mrs. hickman of Spokane,
Mrs. Horton Phelps of Seattle, Mrs.
Kinley Of Aberdeen, and Mrs. William
Vandoren of Pullman. Ten ballots
were taken before a selection was
made, and by the time that Mrs. Van
doren had received a majority of the
votes cast, fully half of the delegates
had became tired and left the conven-
ton hall.
Wanted to Reconsider
During the afternoon session Mrs. J..
B. Blacock moved to reconsider the
motion that was carried Wednesday
asking Governor Mead to select a wo-
man to fill the vancancy on the board
of regents of the University of Wash
ington. After a brief discussion the
motion was put to the convention and
defeated by an overwhelming majority.
The Closing Session.
The convention wound up its bust
ness this afternoon and adjourned to
meet at Port Townsend next year, the
date to be announced by the executive
committee. After the roll call and
reading of the minutes the reports of
the treasurer and auditor were read
and accepted. The Seattle City Fed
Grafton, the Spokane City Federation,
the Tacoma City Federation, the Ia
coma Woman's clubs and the new
clubs of the state federation were
read, showing the work that had been
accomplished during the year.
A resolution offered by Mrs. J. B.
Blalock of Spokane providing for the
investigation by committee of the
practicability of providing for better
and more general work for the blind
was adopted.
Resolutions extending thanks to the
Women's clubs Of Walla Walla, the
citizens in general and the press for
the many courtesies extended to the
members of the federation were pass
ed, after which Mrs. G. C. Brown, the
retiring president, installed the new
officers.
Mrs. Mary Cardwell, a physician of
Portland, gave a short address when
the convention adjourned.

SAYS JUDGE w. II. UPTON, A
PROMINENT LAWYER OF
WALLA WALLA,
Denounces United States Attorney
Heney for His Actions in Oregon
Land Fraud Cases.

Lie ulOTIllIS paper recently remark
ed on it's editorial page that Senator
Mitchell Of Oregon had many friends
in this section of the country who
would be interested in knowing what
kind Of man the judge is who is to
come from California to preside at mis-
trial; and then quoted correspondent
of an Oakland sheet as saying: Judge
DeHaven is probably the last of all
the district judges that the accused
men would have selected to try them"
-intimating, on it's own part, that
Judge DeHaven would be unacceptable
to the Oregon senator and congress
men because he was rigid and unap-
proachable,' and adding that he was
want on the bench.
Referring to this, Judge William H.
Upton remarked to a representative
of the Evening Statesman, as follows:
THE intimation is a gross reflection
upon Judge DeHaven, as well as upon
Senator Mitchell. Those of the lat
ters friends, who know what his de-
Tense will be, are absolutely sure, as
his tens of thousands of other friends
hope is the case, that he is guiltless of
the charges against him and that it is
impossible that he should be convicted
in, cix foi tr;o
trial he would nave had but for the
death of the late Judge Bellinger; and
although it has been said that the bias
of Judge DeHaven's mnd-a bias by
which all judges are probably more Or
less Influenced, unconsciOusly to them
selved-is rather against than in favor
of an accused person. his honor has
the reputation of being a good lawyer
and an upright judge. 1t is a gross
| insult to intimate that any federal
judge could have any instinct in COM
| mon with that Of such a man as this
the sake of notoriety and to promote
| himself from the position of a cheap
clerk in department at Washington
to the we'll salaried office of a United
| States attorney in Oregon, has violated
| every rule of honor recognized among
gentlemen and nearly every clause of
| the oath which he took as an attorney
and as a prosecuting officer; stole
| private letter addressed to another
indict men whom he knew to be limo
cent, and for alleged crimes over
which the supreme court of tne Unit
ed States had just decided it had no
jurisdiction; and, after taking
solemn oath that the secrets of the
grand jury and the evidence given be-
fore it he would forever keep secret
daily gave to the public press a full,
although not honest, account of what
occurred in the grand jury room. This
fellow Heney, for less than I have said
to you, mas had men indicted under
federal statute aimed against the OBJ
struction of federal prosecutions. Let
him indict me; or, better still, let him
get admitted to the bar of the superior
court or the federal court in Walla
Walla county, and 1 will move for his
debarment for conduct unbecoming a
lawyer or a gentleman so quickly that
it will make his head swim.
Don't be uneasy about Senator
Mitchell. Many newspapers seem to
be trying to convict him, but their eff
