Special to The Herald.
SEATTLE. July 13.-Mrs Maud
Crefied, who melted Esther Mitchell to
kill her brother George, the slayer of
. Edmund Creffied, .1ader OF the Holy
Rollers, declared tonight that none of
the other members of her sect knew
anything of the plot.
This statement was made in answer
to the theory advanced from Portland
and Corvallis that conspiracy existed
among the Holy Rollers to kill Nit
chel if he were acquitted of the Cref-
field killing.
I'VE did not talk to anybody about
it," said Mrs. Creffield tonight. I'VE
we're afraid if we did that some one
would talk too much and we would be
prevented.
Warned Sister Not to Talk
ESTHER does not talk as much as
do and after we had decided to Kill
George she came to me time after time
and warned me about telling our plans
to anyone else. Mrs Burgess Starr, a
sister of Esther and George, was the
one person above all others that we
tried to keep in ignorance. Esther
knew that she could not keep secret,
and she kept warning me not to let her
know anything about our plans. No one
but Esther and l knew what we were
going to do"
Acting under orders from the county
attorney DR.. McLeish, former superin'
tendent of the Fort Stella COON insane
asylum, and Dr. X. b. Loughar, his as
sistant, made an examination as to the
sanity of both women today. The two
physicians will continue their investi-
cations daily until the trial is held.
An authorized statement today by
John F.. Miller deputy county attorney,
announced that the women would be
regarded as sane and prosecuted for
murder in the first degree, something
which both expect.

STRIKE THREATENS
BIG LUMBER FLEET
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO, July 13-The
water front strike and lockout Of union
seamen, which has been on for severa,
weeks, bids fair to extend to the large
fleet Of lumber schooners which has
continued to ply between this port and
northern points while the steam vessels
have been tied up.
The United ship owners association,
which controls the large fleet of sailing
vessels from this port, at a meeting to-
day voted to join issues with the United
Shipping and transportation associa-
tion.
The latter control the steam vessels.
1t is feared that this action on the part
of the United Ship owners association
may be followed by lockout of all
union sailors on the sailing fleet which
has not been affected by the strike.

BILLPOSTERS TO
CAST OUT DEVILS
By Associated I'resa


CHICAGO, July 13-The National
Bill Posters association at its meeting
Nre Yesterday decided to eliminate
q lis in all forms from Advertising dis
tr ,uted by the association.
Ihe principal reason given for the ac-
ton taken was that such pictures "sug-
gest evil"
II. G. Sanders of Pittsburg made the
only objection, saying that his interest
lay entirely in his desire to oppose the
sacrifice of so large a fund of artistic
material as that made available by
pictures of his Satanic majesty.
Charles Bernard of Chicago, secre'
tary elect of the association, speaking
in a psychological vein, dwelt upon the
power of suggestion in the minds of
youth.
Suggestion and unconscious imita-
ton are the strongest factors in form
ing the child mind" he said, "and the
accumulated influence of constantly
seeing hideous pictures of devils, carry
ing every suggestion of evil, cannot be
estimated"

DREYFus TO RETURN TO ARMY
Final Vote of Reinstatement Is Over
wheImingly in His Favor
BY Associated Press

By Associated Press.
PARIS, July 13.-This was the clos
ing day of parliament. and 1t was largely
devoted to the reha bilitation of Alfred
Dreyfus, so that the national holiday
tomorrow may witness his return to
the army and the official effacement of
the stain on his good name.
The chamber of deputies met at Q
o'clock in the morning for the purpose
of Fastening the proceedings, and War
Minister Etienne presented two govern
ment bills, one restoring Capt. Dreyfus
to the rank of major of the artillery
and the other promoting Col. Picquart
to that of brigadier general.
NJ. Etienne asked for speedy action,
adding that it was the governments in
tention to inseribe Dreyfus' name on
the list of candidates for the cross of
the Legion of Honor% This announce
ment brought out a storm Of applause.
The bills were referred to the army
committee, which at once went into ses-
sion, approved them and drafted strong
favorable reports, which will be de-
bated later. 1t is expected that both
bills will become law before the close
of the day.
Would Prosecute Prosecutors
The radical supporters of Dreyfus are
seeking to force the government to
prosecute the many generals, colonies
and high functionaries responsible for

The amnesty law protects them, but a
movement is on foot to repeal this law

The government newspapers declare
that the affair is closed but others,

PEACE To FOLLOW
REGALADO' s DEATH
President Cabrera Holds Key to Stu
ation-One Word From Him
Would Stop Hostili-
ties
BY A ssocia ted Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON. July 13.-During
the day a cablegram was received
at the state department from Mr..
Brown, the secretary of the American
legation at Guatemala City.
He reports continued fighting near
Contempque, in the neighborhood of
the place where Regaldo was killed
yesterday The aggressive attitude of
Salvador toward Guatemala was, Mr.
Brown says, really on account of the
personal acts of Regaldos troops, con-
sequently his death has removed the
principal obstacle to the restoration of
peace.
The situation in Guatemala City was
very satisfactory. Martial law had
been declared and perfect order and
security existed last night when the
dispatch was sent.
Cabrera Holds the Key
Minister Merry at San Salvador also
sent a cablegram today to the depart
ment stating that Salvador was quite
willing to cease hostilities, but COM
planned against the aggressive attitude
of Guatemala
From these advices the impression is
given here that President Cabrera of
Guatemala holds the key to the situa-
ton and the question Of war or peace
depends upon the success of the eff
forts which the state department is
now making to induce him to forego
attacking either Salvador or Honduras
in retaliation for the part played in
the attempted revolution by Salvador
can troops under Regaldo
1t is reported to the state depart
ment that Cabrera has gathered a
force of not fewer than 1000 men under
arms, which is regarded as a distinct
menace to the neighboring states, and
he will be asked to disband this force
upon satisfactory assurance that no
further movement shall be directed
against him from without.
