WAR DECLARED.
Ballard and Seattle Clash Over Pro-
gram for King County.

SEATTLE, Aug. 15.-Trouble has
broken out between the Seattle patron
esses of King county's week at the
Lewis and Clark fair, and the patron
esses of Ballard, which promises to be
further developed after Mondey, Aug
ust %, when the week opens at Port
land. Mrs. Hawley, the Ballard host
ess, ever since her appointment has
insisted that there be a Ballard day
while Mrs. Bowden, the Seattle hostess
has arranged her program with the
day claimed by the Ballard ladies set
aside as King county cities day." Mrs
Hawley is named as hostess for that
day, but this is not satisfactory to
the Ballard women, and they propose
to have it changed. No such change
will be agreed to by the Seattle hostess
and war has been declared The pro-
gram, as now arranged, has been sub
mitted to the Lewis and Clark fair
committee on special days and has re-
ceived its approval. The Ballard
women are going ahead making their
preparations under the heading of
Ballard day, and when this arrange
ment is made known at Portland

At Huntington a couple Of nights
ago, in a box car, which had come
across the continent, a man named
Ryan, was held up and robbed of 1913
by fellow hobos who mad been travel
ing across the continent. The man
who was held up is now in the Gus
to1y of Chief of Police Jackson, and

WOMAN CREMATED,
Despondent Seattle Woman Seeks
Horrible Death.

BELLINGHAM, Aug. ia dis
patcn to the Herald from Anacortes
states that Anna Hood, of Seattle,
committed suicide by throwing herself
into the brick refuse burner Of a saw
mill on the waterfront. The workmen
about the mill heard the agonizing
screams of the woman, but were at
loss to locate the source from which
they came for some time.
When discovered she was still alive
but it was impossible to afford inn
mediate relief, owing to the intense
heat. A stream of water was turned
upon the fire and it was soon ex-
tinguished. After the water was turned
on the woman was seen to turn over
twice, but she was dead when re-
moved from the burner.
1t is not known whether she climbed
to the hole near the top through which
the conveyor dumps tine refuse, or en-
tered at the hole which serves as
draught near the bottom. The woman
was identified by ring upon her
finger. She has been visiting her
friend, Mrs. ]. H. Leadbetter, at Ana
cortes, for three weeks, and it said to
times. She was SO years of age.

FROM NORTHWEST PAPERS
Will Make Survey.

John H. Lewis, state engineer, and
w. c. Sawyer Of the United States
geological survey, returned last night
from Milton and the Walla Walla
river, where they have been taking
the measurements of several different
streams in that vicinity. The import
ant feature of the survey is the fact
that it is the result of the suit that is
now pending in the courts in regard
to the distribution Of water. Mr.. Lewis
will be in Pendleton for some time and
will in a few days commence to make
a nydrogaphical survey of that part
of the country where the irrigation
dispute is on. The case involves
great many people who are living on
the stream and who are taking the
water out in an indiscriminate man.
ner 1t is the intention of the state
engineer to ascertain just the exact
amount of water that is available at
the low and high stages of the river
in order that just apportionment
can be made to those who are taking
water from the stream.-Pendleton

Celebration This Year-Beqins
Tomorrow.

TURIN, Italy, Aug. 15.-This is a
great day for Turin, being the fif-
tieth anniversary of the battle of
Tel rI.aya, during the Crimean ex-
pee 'tion, in which about $4,000 Sarii-
MAN hoops took part. King Victor
Emanre, arrived here this morning
and was received with great military
and Civ nonors. The town is profuse-
ly d-tOrate ted and thousands of visitors
are tfrcnging the streets. In the af-
ternOon there will be a grand parade
and a review of the few survivors of
the Sandman corps under General La
Marmora. The survivors of that bat
tie, among them Senator and General
Bava Beccaris, former minister of
war. The Bersaglieri regiment of the
Italian army, organized by Gen. L.
Marmora, who saw their chief service
in the Crimean expedition will take
the most prominent part in the cele-
bration and will nave the place of
honor in the parade and review. One
of the interesting historical features
of the parade will be the old battle
flags which will be taken out of the
royal armory and carried in the pro-
cession.

NATIONAL CONFERENCE scHED-
ULED FOR COMMENCEMENT IN
CHICAGO THIS AFTERNOON
Many Questions of Much Importance
Will be Taken Up and Discussed
by Delegates.


tional Reciprocity Conference called by
a meeting of prominent commercial
AID industrial organizations of the
west and northwest for the purpose of
considering plans for extending our
foreign commercial relations, finding
new foreign markets for American
pl odIcts and establishing reciprocity
p. .wers, will be called to order at the
Auditorium this afternoon. 1t is by far
tie most important movement of Its
kind ever begun in this country
broader in it's scope and more far
reaching in its results.
The movement was inaugurated
few weeks ago in Chicago at a meet
ing of representatives Of the National
Ii ,: Stock association. the Shorthorn
Breeders association of America, the
National Live Stock Exchange, the
Chicago Commercial association, the
Illinois Manufacturers association, the
National Grange, the Millers' Fedora
ton. the Chicago Board of Trade, the
cultural Implements Manufacture
"a s association and other similar or
carnations. The meeting at that time
practically agreed upon the general
Principe of trade extension and recip-
rocity end decided to call a national
conference on the subject.
The United States government was
at first inclined to take but little no.
tice Of the movement, but 50 great
was the interest manifested by COM
ne rcial and Industrial bodies all over
tie country, that there could no longer
be any doubt of the fact that the
movement would have to be reckoned
with in the future. The result was
that s'ecretary Wilson of the depart
ment of agriculture and Secretary
Metcaif of the department of labor
and commerce decided to send repre-
sentatives to the conference. Secre-
tary Metcalf has also decided to ac-
c2ot an invitation to address the con-
ference.
1t is expressly and emphatically
stated by the promoters Of the move
mant that it is not a political move
ment ard no effort will be made to
make ire movement a political issue.
Former Senator W. A. Harris of Kan
sas, VINO is one of the most prominent
supporters of the movement, said in
az Interview this morning: 1.-The sole
design Of the movement is to be ready
effectively to meet the combined COM
Un:te1 States. We must find foreign
cid rkets for our enormously increased
all lines or face one Of the greatest
periods of commercial stagnation in
our IL SplCIy. W. are USlIlS Suul Oul VI
the continent of Europe and, if some
TINS s not done soon, Great Britain
Will be our only customer in Europe.
Germany is our most dangerous COM
marcjal rival and is making desperate
eff rts to exclude our products from
tn, markets in Central and South
America by keen competition and by
Obtaining trade advantages by means
OF commercial treaties with the Amer
ic IN republics. Reciprocity is the only
remedy and we hope to be able, to
present the situation to the merchants
and manufacturers of the United
States in such a strong light that the
government will be compelled to yield
to ihe reciprocity sentiment"

ately and without ignoring or failing
to give full consideration to the law
upon the subject.
L therefore respectfully dissent from
the opinion of the court ordering a re-
hearing of the decision. 1 do this with
unfeigned respect for the opinion of my
colleagues and with feeling of salts
faction that in this case, as heretofore,
we have no difference of opinion con-
corning rules of law, the only question
now being whether there is anything
in the case which shows that the lease
to MendOnca was not to give him the
right to subsequently accruing rent
while he should not have got posses
sion Of the land then held under the
Ahlo leases. As the court, according
to its majority opinion, have consider
ed that a reargument on this matter is
proper, I shall take great pleasure in
listening to and considering the argu-
ment which may be presented.

declaration was not recorded. Bottles
continuing to demand of Ahio rem
upon the Silveira leases to him may,
in the absence of evidence to the con-
trary, be presumed to have been done
in conformity with the understanding
between Silveira and Mendonca as to
the meaning of the written declaration
of the latter. AS the claim of rent
from Ahlo was matter solely between
Silveira and Mendonca, they had a
right as between themselves to place
this meaning, if they wished to do so,
upon Mendonca's declaration, although
il may not be the meaning which in the
absence of construction of it by the
parties the law would place upon it.
PAYMENT A PROTECTION.
Payment of rent by AhIo to Silveira
would have protected him from a claim
by Mendonca, and a payment now
made in the absence of any claim by
Mendonca would seem to protect him
against the latter On the other hand.
a payment of the rent to Mendonca
made by Ahlo would protect him from
a claim by Silveira, on the theory that
unless otherwise notified by Silveira
Ahlo would have had the right to treat
the declaration as merely a statement
of the general rule of law applying
to conveyances made subject to exist
ing leases. The law and the facts in
this case were before the court
as far as I can say and We're
fully recognized and considered in it's
decision of which the defendant asks
rehearing. It is true that the ques-
ton argued by the defendant concern
ing Mendonca's written declaration
was confined to its admissibility, and
that the conclusion of the court nee
essarily went to the extent, not only
of declaring it to be admissible, but
of passing upon its effect in law as
equivalent under the circumstances of
the case to an agreement between Sill
veira and Mendonca that the latter.
until he got possession of the land
leased to Ahlo. would not claim the
rent from Ahlo. As far as l know or
can infer, this construction was placed

outstanding leases and upon notice of
the transfer of the title given to the
tenant either by the grantor or by the
grantee the latter becomes en-
titled to the subsequently accruing
rent. Until such notice the tenant
must pay the rent to the grantor, his
immediate landlord, and such payment
protects him against any claim thereto
by the grantee. After such notice he
is released from obligation to the gran
tor created by the lease in respect of
the payment of rent, while the grantor
is released from obligation under the
lease to the tenant, excepting such liza
bility as may have been incurred by
him in consequence of breach OF an
express or implied covenant of title.
Such being the law, conveyances of
land would be subject to it's provisions
and requirements. whether therein ex-
pressed to be so or not, although
conveyance which does not mention
that it is made subject to existing leas-
es would be regarded as giving the
gIantor the right to take immediate
possession of the land and as implying
that at the time of delivery of the deed
the grantor was himself in possession,
having the right to place his grantor
on the land. If a conveyance of land in
fee contain an express covenant or
words which imply covenant on the
part of the grantor that he is in pos
session and has a right to give pos
session to the grantee the expression In
the conveyance that it is made subject
to certain leases would modify such
expressed or implied covenant, and
would mean nothing more than to re-
lease the grantor from an obligation
to give immediate possession to the
grantee.
