The alliance formed two years ago
by Senator Gamble and Governor
Crawford bore good fruit for the gov

ago he aided Senator Gamble in his
candidacy for reelection and in Sc
curing a legislature favorable to Gam

Gamble men returned this favor by
giving Governor Crawford, in Gamble
territory, the majorities he needed
to enable him to defeat Senator Kilt

formed with Senator Gamble Governor

OREGON TWO THIRDS DRY.
Prohibition Wins in Twenty-one OF
the Thirty-three Counties.

Portland, Ore, June 12.-As a re-
suit of the local option elections held
in Oregon this month county prohibit
tion will prevail in twenty-one of the
thirty-three counties after July. There
are from four TO sixteen prohibition
precincts in each of the other twelve
counties, so that there is not a county
in the state in which there is not
some dry territory A total of 237
saloons were put out of business in
the thirteen counties that were car
ried for prohibition June / and this
number is increased to 270 by the adj
dition of the saloons that have been
removed by the precinct elections in
the other counties. Altogether nearly
500 saloons have been closed in the
state since the local option law was
enacted. Prior elections on this sub.
ject in this state carried eight coun-
ties and forced approximately 200 sa-
looms TO abandon business.

money and when Sperio refused to
give it to him the stranger drew a

PREVENT ELECTION FRAUDS
Active Intervention in Panama a Pos.
sibility.

Washington, June 12.-Probably by
way of preparing the public mind for
active Intervention in Panama to pre-
vent electoral frauds and ensure a
free expression of the will of the peo-
pie at the polls the war department
has made public copies of correspond
ence that has been exchanged be-
tween our government and that of
Panama relating to this subject. On
May IL last Secretary Taft wrote
President Amador that he had re-
ceived petitions, which he believed to
be corroborated, showing that fraud
was about to be perpetrated in the
coming election and that President
Roosevelt would not permit Panama
to pass into the hands of any one so
elected. Subsequently the Panaman
government agreed to submit to an
inquiry at the hands of commission
appointed by this government and
that commission is now at work. But
the correspondence shows that four
governors of provinces have been re-
moved because they are Arias men
and the electoral law has been other
wise tampered with. The statement
concludes:
mo opinion was expressed at the
war department whether these cir
cumstances were leading to fraud re-
quiring intervention. 1t was said that
the government could do nothing but
await tho event and then sim I'm the
evidence and reach conclusion"

TORY TOT SoVSTnoF F7ugHeS ana tHS
Supporters of the Measure by a
Vote of 26 to 25.
Albany, N. Y, June IA legisla-
tive battle which for dramatic inter
est and intensity of feeling on both
sides rarely, if ever, has been equalled
In this state came to an end when the
heroism of Senator Foelker of Brook
lyn made it possible to place upon the
statute books two bills repeating the
legal discrimination which for thirteen
years has protected public gambling
within race track enclosures, while it
was felony elsewhere in this state
The vote on each of the bills was 26
to 25.
The lineup was in general the same
as that in the regular session, when
the bills failed of passage by tie
vote, rs to rs, but since then Senator
Wallace of Niagara Falls has been
elected to the seat then vacant by
the death of Senator Fanchot and his
vote made the necessary 26
Senator Foelker, who underwent an
operation on May 10 for appendicitis
and whose condition for much of the
intervening time was critical, came up
from Staatsburg, the journey of sixty
miles being severe tax upon his
strength. He was taken to the senate
chamber just as the roll call on
a dilatory motion was being taken.
His Responses Scarcely Audible.
He was plainly suffering from weak
ness and his response when his name
was reached was scarcely audible.
He was encouraged by his fellow SEN
ators' sympathy and on both of the
roll calls on the final passage of the
bills voted with the majority After
wards his doctor said:
Senator Foelker stood the ordeal
as well as could be expected He is
extremely nervous. We have not de-
cided when we shall return to Stats
burg"
Governor Hughes would not say
when he would sign the bills, but left
no doubt that no time would be lost
after they reach him from the assem-
bly,, where they originated. Both bills
take effect Immediately after approval
by Governor Hughes.
Up to the very last moment the op.
position to the bills entertained hope
that the measures would fail Rumors
flew thick and fast that Foelker had
collapsed and that some other senator
who formerly voted for the bills had
been induced to switch" There was
even the report of an attempt in some
desperate way to prevent Senator
Foelker's presence at the critical mo-
ment., Every step of his progress
from his house to his seat in the sen
ate chamber was guarded.

New York, June 12.-Raymond
Hitchcock, the comedian, who was ac-
quilted by the jury which for several
days had been hearing evidence on

similar charges and was released on
bail of $1,000.
Six indictments originally were filed
against Mr.. Hitchcock, all based on
complaints by Helen Won Hagen, Ell

of these indictments charged attempt
ed assault and abduction of Helen
Won Hagen and were incorporated in
the case in which Hitchcock was ac-

course will be taken with reference
to the indictments still pending has
