Jencks, NOR shall he tell us whether
we shall have supper or not? The

will stay out until the strike is won.
Things are going beautifully, and
prospects were never brighter for us

seek a settlement of the strike.
Notwithstanding the efforts of the
local leaders there We're indications
around strike headquarters that some

PARIS, May 17.-Gen. Porter, the re-
firing American ambassador, was CIV
en- notable farewell tonight, which for
sumptuousness of appointments and
the distinguished character of the
guests present has not been exceeded
by anything of the kind held in recent
years in Paris.
Practically the entire diplomatic
corps was represented. The American
guests, who numbered several hun

Pierpont Morgan and President Dallie-

merce the latter acting as presiding
officer.
In presenting the guest of the even

Gen. Porter's public service in saying:
"a congressional medal of honor
crowned his military career; the degree
of LID. marked his literary career;
the Grand Cross of the Legion of Hon

career; the building of the tomb of

TAFT AT OUTS WITH SHAW
President sympsthlzes With Former
and Test Case Arises on Pur-
chase Of Materials for the
Panama Canal

Special 20 The Herald.
WASHINGTON, May 17.-The polit-
ical pot, as far as the Republican
camp is concerned, is boiling and siz-
zling at a terrific rate, and all sur
face indications point to a divided
party with Secretary Tawt at the head
OF one faction and Secretary Shaw at
the head of the other. Both men are
candidates for the presidential nomi-
nation and both see fine opportun-
ity to make a bid for public support.
1t is the old tariff question with
some new trimmings upon which the
party is splitting and there Is bitter
struggle for supremacy.
Secretary Taft is leading the pro-
gressives, while Secretary Shaw is at
the head Of the reactionsts or stand
patters. The fact that both are MEM
bers of the cabinet gives the fight the
appearance of an administrative row,
of a house divided against itself.
No one doubts that President Roose-
yelt sympathizes and sides with Sec
retary Taft. The president firmly be-
l1eVeS In tarlff reform, ana ne cneer-
fully accepts the row over the purchase
of material for the Panama canal as
battle that will clear the air. The de-
termination of the administration, as
represented in the canal commission, to
buy in the cheapest markets of the
world is likely to have great signifi-
canoe.
Labor leaders today have begun to
ask themselves and their political
friends how far this thing is to go.
They wish to know if the rule of buying
in the cheapest market applies to labor
as we'll as to machinery and supplies.
If so, they propose to put up the hard
est battle possible on behalf of the
"stand-patters."

PISTOL HELD BY
NAN PATTERSON
ATTORNEY SAYS HE HEARD
HER TRUE STORY
SHE WAS MAKING A "BLUFF"
Sioux City Lawyer Says Abe Levy
Related to Him the Account
of Tragedy Given to Him
by the Girl

Special to The Herald.
SIOUX CITY, May 17.-C. A. Irwin,
a reputable lawyer of this city, says
he discussed the Nan Patterson case
with Abe Levy last November. and
that Levy told him according to her
own statement she held the revolver
that caused the death of Caesar
Young.
Irwin says Levy repeated to him the
girls story of the shooting.
Levy told me-" he said; that Nan
Patterson admitted that the revolver
was in her hands when the fatal shot
was fired. According to Levy's state
ment of Miss Patterson's story, both
she and Young were considerably un-
der the influence of liquor and when
in the cab began quarreling about the
intended departure OF Young.
Nan Patterson finally drew a re-
volver. which she declared to Levy was
done for the purpose of a bluff. Young
grabbed the gun and in a struggle
which followed the trigger was pulled
and Young was shot. That is the true
story and all the other theories and
newspaper stories are incorrect.
Levy told me that if he put forward
that defense Nan Patterson would
have been convicted. Levy enter
tained fears that such a story would
not be believed by a jury. That is
the reason suicide was the theory of
the defense"

Accident
ONE DEAD, OTHERS IN DANGER

Special to The Herald
SANTA BARBARA, May 17.-Anoth-
er victim Of carbonic acid gas lies at
the end of the city water tunnel at the
Santa Ynez river. A. y. McDougall is
dead and Charles and William Packard
of this city are in very serious condi-
ton.
Five men were working in the tunnel,
which Is 100 feet into the mountain,
when the drill penetrated a pocket Of
gas, and before they could escape three
of the men were overcome. The two
who managed to reach the open fell
to the ground unconscious. A relief
party was made up from the night shift
and the remaining men were brought
out McDougall died Immediately
upon reaching the mouth Of the
tunnel, but heroic work saved Card and
Packard. Packard was badly burned
about the breast, presumably from his
torch, which may have fallen upon him
when he succumbed to the fumes.
The trail to the tunnel is one of the
most trying that can be imagined, but
Mainhardt set out on foot and made
the run of twelve miles in the blister
ing sun, arriving in this city at a very
late hour with the bare information
that the accident had happeped and
that medical aid was needed. Doctors
left Immediately for the scene and at
an early hour this morning G. Welch
walked over the trail and gave full par
ticulars of the affair.
This is the second death due to this
gas, and several have been badly in
jured. Every effort has been made to
keep the matter quiet as it is feared
that workmen will not be found who
are willing to work in what they may
consider death trap If the facts be-
come generally known.

CREATION OF YELLOW PRESS

After having suffered Typographical
exposure to the extent of spacious col
umns of yellow journalism-its inner
most mysteries dissected and strewn
to the four winds-the story of So
called black hand, or Malta, died yes
terday at the scene of it's birth.
Hearts that for weeks past have pal
pitated in terrified anticipation of an
impending crime, slaughter or massa-
ere relapsed to their normal regularity
last night when the news was hur-
riedly heralded from door to door, or
nervously whispered over back fences,
that, so far as this ominous sign was
concerned, there was naught to fear.
The mystery has been solved. There
is no black hand or Malta society that
in the dead, still hours of the night
would .swooop down to crush out the
lives of a sleeping community. There
is no cleaning eye, watching for the
moment that a daggered hand might
descend cruelty to bury itself In a
crime of murder, nor are there skulk-
ing, bearded men haunting houses
that are significantly marked for their
prey.
To chance and the alertness of a
housewife are to be awarded the hon

Innocent of Wrong
To Wong Kai Lee, fruit and vege-
table merchant, whose pleasure 1t is
to serve those in outlying districts
with luscious delicacies, may be at
tributed the origin of a reign of terror.
1t might be said, however,, that he did
so innocently, and that when his pa
irons were in the most abject terror he
was thoroughly unaware of his "evil
doing"
Wong Kai Lee conceived the idea of
keeping a set of books on the outside
of each house in which he sold his
goods. Finding no more favorable
place on which to balance his accounts
he utilized a space of about three feet
in diameter for the purpose. Accord
ingly, while Mrs. Jones or Mrs. Smith
was in her kitchen examining a box of
newly arrived strawberries the sinis-
ter sign of impending evil was being
innocently placed outside her door.
Thus 1t developed that what was sup
posed to signify the death warrant of
peaceful families meant nothing more
nor less than that "stling beans" sold
at ten cents a pound.
