RECEPTION MADE
PRES. ROOSEVELT
FLEET IN BATTLE LINE, GAY
WITH BUNTING, SALUTES THE
MAYFL0WER WITH 1886 GUNS
REAR ADMIRAL PAYS RE-
SPECTS

OLD POINT COMFORT, Dec. 10
The Mayflower swung around the
water battery of Fortress Monroe
and into Hampton Roads shortly
after o'clock. The saluting guns
of the army post were first to sig
nal the arrival of the president.
Aboard the warships at anchor a
mile further up the roads, bugles
were summoning the officers and
men to quarters, but it was not un-
til the Mayfower had nearly reach
ed Old Point pier that the president
had his first view of the splendid
fleet.
Each ship was gaily dressed from
jackstaff to f1agpost, with long lines
OF varied colored bunting fluttering
in the early-morning breeze. Black
smoke was pouring from every fun
mel, indicating that the engineers
forces were building up steam for
the first step in the memorable voy-
age.
The Connecticut, flying the flag of
Rear Admiral Evans, was first to
speak to the president. Following
the motion of flags, other ships kepe
up the firing and in less than two
minutes 336 guns had doomed.
The Mayfower entered the war
ship lane and proceeded slowly to a
point about midway of the assem-
bled fleet let go her anchors and
swung round partly to face the flow
of the ebbing tide. No sooner had
she done this than the torpedo
launch of the Connecticut, with Ad-
miral Evans and staff on board,
darted swiftly to her side and the
party repaired on board, all in re-
gala of full dress uniform, to pay
their respects to the nations chief.
The ceremonies were brief, and
within half an hour afr Admiral
Evans first stepped on the deck of
the yacht all of the officers were
back in the launches and retiring
to the ships.

TO Be TRIED
FOR PERJURY
CASE OF HENRY CLAY PIERCE,
WHO SWORE FALSELY IN THE
WATERS-PIERCE TRIAL, TO
BEGIN TODAY

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 16.-The case of
Henry Clay Pierce, who was arrest
ed last spring following a Texas in
dictment against him charging per-
jury, is on the docket for hearing
tomorrow in the United States cir
cult court of appeals here. Follow
ing his arrest last May Mr.. Pierce
applied for a writ of habeas corpus
before Judge Adams in the United
States circuit court. The writ was
denied, and Mr.. Pierce took appeal
to the circuit court of appeals and
the United States supreme court.
The indictment found against Mr..
Pierce by the Texas grand jury
charges false swearing in connec-
tion with the affairs of the Waters
Pierce Oil company, of which Mr..
Pierce is chairman of the board. The
indictment was returned by the
grand jury of Travis county, Texas.
1t charges that Pierce, on May
1900, made an aff1davit that the
Waters-Pierce Oil company had not
entered into any agreement or un-
derstanding with any corporation,
partnership, firm or individual to
regulate the price of any article or
commodity. 1t is now claimed that
at the time that Pierce made the
affidavit he knew that the company
had entered into an agreement with
the Standard Oil company, John D.
Rockefeller and his business part
ners to control the price of oil in
Texas, and that the Standard Oil
company had acquired a controlling
interest in the Waters-Pierce Oil
company. In denying the applica-
tion, for a writ of habeas corpas
Judge Adams upheld the contention
of the Texas authorities that the
federal court cannot inquire into the
validity of an indictment issued by
the state court, except, possibly,
where a constitutional question is
involved
Perjury in the state of Texas is
punishable by Imprisonment in the
penitentiary for term of not less
than five years. The minimum pun.
ishment for false swearing in the
same state is two years,

PASSING OF
OLD LANDMARK
PIONEER STAGE COACH, HIS
TORIC LANDMARK OF PILOT
ROCK SECTION, TO GIVE WAY
TO RAILROAD

PENDLETON, Or, Dec. ia
special to the Portland Telegram
says: The numbering old stage
coach, drawn by four jaded horses,
running between this city and
Ukiah, by way of Pilot Rock, will be
discontinued at an early date. The
passing of this historic institution
marks the close of operations of the
long line that once extended from
Ogden to The Dalles.
The Pendleton-U -Ukiah stage has
been in operation for over 40 years
over part of the route now trav-
ersed. 1t has been used to carry
the mails into the southern part of
the country all this time, but has
now lost it's usefulness through the
advent of the Umatilla Central.
From Pendleton to Pilot Rock it
follows a part of the route travelled
by the stages which formerly ran
to Heppner, but which were discon-
tinued 20 years ago, when a branch
of the o. R. & n. was built to that
city.
At one time Pendleton was a
stage center. Lines coming from the
east, The Dalles and from Walla
Walla met here. Before that Cay
use, a sidetrack on the o. R. & N.
at the present time, was the sta
tion. Through the efforts of Lot
Livermore, pioneer of this city, the
station was finally changed to Pen
dleton. Livermore was postmaster
at that time. The Ukiah stage is
the last remnant of those stirring
days, and many of the pioneers view
with regret the passing of the last
landmark connecting them with the
thrilling past.
A round-trip daily stage now COW
ers the so miles between Pendleton
and Ukiah. 1t is the old-time forty
miner, rocking back and forth on the
long leather springs, drawn by foul
! horses. This relic of the early-day
| transportation has been a pictur'
esque and interesting sight to East
ern visitors and students of Western
history for many years. Rumbline
down the street, rocking back and
forth on it's springs, the old coach
has never failed to attract attention

NORFOLK, Dec. 16.-With a
"bon voyage" from the pesident of
the United States and a salute from

PRICES OF WOOD
COME down
THE BIG AK GETS IN IT'S WORK
ON WOOD PRICES AND MAKES
A CUT OF 81 PER CORD-FUEL
COMBINE BROKEN

After being passed through al of
the towns. of the Palouse country,
the big AK that has been hueing
down the fuel prices has reached
Lewiston, and cut of 81 per cord
was made in wood today.
The fuel combine in the Clearwa-
ter country has been broken for the
past month, but local dealers were
stocked with wood bought at the
trust prices, and this had to be un-
loaded before a reduction to con-
sumers was made.
Reports from Clearwater points
indicate that large quantities of
wood can be secured there from 81
to $3.50 per cord. There are also
several thousand cords at Troy, and
with the placing in operation of the
Culdesac-Vollmer line a large guam
tity of wod will be placed on the
market at Reubens.
Reports from all sections indicate
that more wood will be cut this sea-
son than for the past several years,
and the general cut in all wages
will place this wood on the market
at a much lower cost. In view OF
these conditions, it is generally be-
lieved it will be many years before
the Lewiston pople will again be
compelled to pay 50 for a cord of
wood

Law CONSTRUED
IN LOCAL CASE
FULL SYLLABUS IN O'NEILL VS..
POTvIN, WHERE QUESTION or
ATTACK UPON JUDGMENT
WAS MADE

BOISE, Dec. 16.--In the supreme
court Friday, says the Statesman, an
opinion was handed down ON the APP
peal from the decision of the NeS
Perce county district court, Judge
Edgar c. Steele presiding, in th@
case of Eugene O'Neill, appellant
VS.. Edmond ID. Potvin, respondent,
in which the judgment for Potyine
the defendant in the lower court, In
affirmed.
The original action was brought
to quiet title to about 157 acres or
land. In his complaint O'NeilE
prayed to have the title to which
Potvin made claim quieted in HIM
self. Potvin, in his answer, denied
any ownership on the part of the
plaintiff and claimed title under
sale by execution issued in the case
of Edmund D. Potvin vs.. William
Malanfant, to enforce judgment rem
dered in the district court in his IA
vor. The plaintiff based his title
upon a deed from Malanfant.
The real controversy arose over
the validity of the judgment in the
case of Potvin VS.. Malanfant, for
unless the deed was void the plain
tiff had no title. Counsel for the
appellant contended that the 5udg-
ment was absolutely void by reason

summons on his by publication al
requied by law.
Judgment was entered in favor of
the defendant. The syllabus of the
supreme court in affirming this
Judgment is as follows:
!. The attack upon a Judgment
| is collateral if the action of proceed
ing has an Independent purpose and
contemplates some other relief or
result than the mere setting aside
of the Judgment, although the set
ting aside of the judgment may bo
necessary to secure such indepen-
dent purpose.
2. Where the main object or
purpose of an appeal, writ of error
or motion, if taken or made in the
original action, or in an indepen-
dent action, is for the purpose OF
setting aside a judgment, such ac-
tion is direct.
3. In an action where the serv-
| ice of the summons is made by pub

visions of subdivision 1, section
4456, Revised Statutes, the follow
