MOST RFPEClIVE
TORPEDO FOUND
DEADLY INSTRUMENT AT LONG
AND SHORT RANGE.
Expert in Bureau OF Ordnance Dis
covers Motive Power Which win
Revolutionize Warfare ON Seas.
AN AMERICAN THE INVENTOR

Washington, June 29.-The Unit
ed States government now owns anG
controls what is believed to be the
most effective torpedo in the world.
The new engine Is the invention of
an expert in the bureau of ordnance,
navy department. 1t will be one OF
the preponderating elements of Of
Tense and defense as compared with
the torpedoes In use by other ma
tons. 1t has been tested and will be
manufactured in numbers 50 that all
the new battleshlps may have them
as part of their equipment.
The torpedo used by most of the
cations is familiar to all naval pow
ers. so that there is no special bene-
TT 10 be had from their use except
in the relative daring OF the COM
handlers of warships. Ships can now
be fought at a distance which makes
the torpedo more of an ornament
than terror because II has been
found impossible to create such a
motive power as win make the tor
redo a factor both at long and close
range. The two distinctive elements
OF the torpedo of the bureau of ord
rance are the required motive power
for long fighting and the explosive
with which the torpedo is charged.
Half Dozen Schemes.
The navy department has been ex-
perimenting with half dozen
schemes for new motive power. but
all of these have been rejected in
favor of the bureaus own device.
The tests of the torpedo have been
held near Washington and New
York. These tests related only to
the motive power, one test being in
the comparatively calm water OF the
river and the other in calm sea and
|stormy sea near New York.
The experts say that the invention
being complete and practical adds
immeasurably to the fighting power
Of the new ships and in fact puts
them ahead of anything in the world.
The Florida and Utah. the Wyoming
and Arkansas win be equipped with
the new engine of destruction.

WILL. MEET
. ON STREET

No more street meetings, either
by political or religious organiza-
tons. will be allowed within the
fire limits of the city during the
present administration If Chief of
Police Rice and Mayor Moore can
prevent it. This is the decision Of
these officials, growing out of a con-
ference held between the Chief of
Police and Attorney Fred Moore,
counsel for the Industrial Workers
of the World; and A. F. Sagl and
S. O. Chinn, secretary of the organ
ization.
Discontinued with this arrange
ment, the Industrial Workers of the
World will call upon the Salvation
Army, the Volunteers of America
and all other organizations whose
customs 1t has been to hold street
meetings, in an effort to get them
to cooperate h testing the anti
street speaking OeksESa, 0sops
which the above ruling has been
made. Should all the other organi-
cations falter, then the |. w. w.
will go it alone.
S. o. Chinn, secretary of the Or
ganization, declared this morning
that they would beat the ordinance
just the same as they have done in
other cities, that they intend, in a
very short time, to congregate
again upon the streets of the en-
ployment office districts in defiance
of the authorities and that If any of
their cases were prosecuted by the
city, the |. w. w. will carry the
cases to the higher courts.

TIGHT CORNER
FOR SANDERS

r. B. Paterson is one of the fore
most boosters for C. M. Fassett for
mayor. John F. Sanders, auditor
of the Spokane Dry Goods COM
pany, of which Mr.. Paterson Is the
president, is in the race for the
mayoralty on his own hook and
intends to go down the middle and
run Independent.
Now the puzzle Is whether Pater-
son takes Sanders as a joke and
will let him go along unmolested
or whether, should he feel that the
law enforcement candidate has
strength which he will gain from
Fassett, Mr.. Sanders will be given
the choice of quitting his job or
the race.
Mr.. Paterson wants Mr.. Fassett
as the mayor and of that there is
no dispute, but Sanders presence
in the race will take Yates from
Fassett rather than from any other
candidate. 1t is ticklish position
for Mr.. Sanders to be in, with no
chance to win the mayoralty and
a god chance to lose his job pos
sibly.

BERTuLION RECORD
BROKE HIM DOWN

While his fearful wife was wait.
ing to see him, Tom Hawley,
broken down with evidence that
had been piled up by Police Inspec'
tor Lewis and Detective McPhee,
confessed today with William How
ard, alias Hawley, to having robbed
Hays second hand store. Hawley
met his wife at the door of the
chiefs Office Immediately after his
confession and both broke down
and wept in one another's embrace.
Howard now declares that he is
Hawley's brother and that Tom
smashed the window with a rock to
admit them both to the store OF
guns in the window. They were ar
rested on suspicion the following
day and the 3S guns stolen from
Hays store were found shortly af-
terward, concealed beneath the
sidewalk near Hawley's home on
East Main avenue.
Bertillion records showing that
Hawley had been arrested in Port
land with one Frank Mcdonald, for
pocket picking on street cars, was
presented by Inspector Lewis and it
was these that started both the al
legged Hawleys' confession.

HAY WILL
KILL BILL

OLYMPIA, March 3.-The vets
this morning were unable to mus
ter the necessary two-thirds vote
to sustain the rules of the house
and pass a local option bill. The
drys resisted on the ground that
they had time to digest the small
er amendments.
McMasters said the drys would
not make a further fight on the
bill, and plea for delay was not
made in good faith.
1t is rumored Governor Hay will
refuse to sign the option bill when
1t comes to him.
The house killed Teneyck's two
bills preventing the burning OF
slashings during the exposition
The object was to keep the sky
clear.
The senate killed Cotterills bill
providing for the incorporation OF

ton laws. 1t passed new state

lions of state timber lands to the
mercy of big spectators.

PREACHERS
SEE TOO
MANY

The Ministerial association has
looked over the field of mayoralty
candidates and has come TO the
conclusion that the list is too
large. AS a result a committee of
five was appointed for the express
purpose Of attempting to induce
several of the candidates to quit
the race and make it possible for
the association to indorse a candi-
date.
The committee appointed was
composed of Rev. f. L. House, Rev.
NJ e. DSnn, Dean Alfred Lock
wood, Rev. Clarence Kimbal and
Rev. n. A. Sheldon. This commit
tee was to have waited on the Fed
Grated clubs last night to get line
on the situation, but the only ones
who attended were Dean Lock
wood and Rev. Dunn. DR.. House in
speaking of the mater this morn
ing stated that the ministers de-
sired to eliminate some of the can
didates before steps would be
taken toward a formal indorse-
ment.

voted last night to stand as a unit

but with the Endorsement of any
one candidate the next move will
undoubtedly be a big bunch OF
boltefs. g. 90 q
The club ruled that candidates
for Office or members of political
clubs are to be barred from the club
and as a result Paul Priest and f
E. Sargent resigned the Offices OF
president and secretary respec.
lively, but both men remained
through the session and voted on
every proposition that came up
Sargent is a prominent Fassett
man.
The anti-Bolo element had a
resolution before the club that
every man in the club state
whether he was pledged or not to
any candidate or party and if so
to state to whom and why. This
was facer for the aggregation
and it was promptly voted down.
The plan to put all of the power
of indorsing candidates - the
hands of the advisory board was
also again taken UP and this too
was reversed, the board being
shorn of it's imperial power.
"Precendent" was the justifica-
ton given for barring the new
delegates who presented their Gre
dentlals last night. By digging
into the archives it was found that
in the past it had been customary
for the credentials to lay over a
meeting and in the meantime the
credential committee was to in
vestigate. This formality was
forgotten when the Bolo and In.
uuisitors club were admitted, but
the club evidently has noticed that
it received something hot into its
midst and concluded to take no
more such chances.
]. r. Burcham has assumed the
head of the Federated clubs and
A. G. Gray was elected the new
secretary.
