FORGERY KNOWN, BUT
OFFICIALS PASS BLAME
tContlnued from Page One,

revoking the commissions of these nota-
ries who made the false attests, but
there appears to be no way now of find
ing out who they were unless some or
the force employed byq Mr.. Lelande in
checking up the petition can remember
their names, and even if they can, such
evidence is as nothing compared TO the
sections of the petition itself, which
would have shown these facts, and
which have been returned to persons
who are not likely to give them back
without a struggle.
But one thing is certain If those in
terested in the extension of the whole
sale liquor zone fulfill their threat to
circulate another petition to submit
the liquor zone extension to the people
at the next general election, they will
not use any of the sections of the petit
tion which has proved insufficient, and
they will be careful what methods they
use in securing signatures and that
those signatures are not forged.
1t seems difficult to trace the authors
of the forgeries, although the numerous
perjuries could have been traced by the
petition itself The first petition sub
mitted was rank with forgeries. and
when this was proved insufficient, and
Benny Cohn engaged to "make good
with an amended petition, the amend
ment was found full of forgeries as
well.
Which of Cohn's lieutenants was re-
sponsibe for the last forgeries it APP
pears impossible to determine.

No Delay for Conference

WASHINGTON, July S.-There will
be no delay in sending the tariff bill
to conference after it reaches the house
1t is expected the bill will be sent to
that body by the senate late tomorrow.
The house will meet daily from now
until the end of the session.
AS soon as the bill is received Mr.
Dalzen is expected to offer a resolu-
ton by which the house will disagree
to the senate amendments en- bloc ana
agree to a conference. When thiS
resolution is adopted the speaker viii
announce the list of conferees. 1t is
likely the first thing agreed to in con-
ference will be reductions on neces-
saries of life and raw materials, MADE
in the house bill by the senate The
increases made by the senate on GER
tain luxuries probably will offer tenn
norary barrier to an early agreement
in conference, because of the conten-
ton that the increased rates will prove
prohibitive and will materially reduce
the revenue

MOUNTAIN PARTY IS
SAVED FROM DEATH
Members Are Equipped with Food for
Trip, but Snow Begins to Fall
and Cold Weather Exhausts
Women

SAN FRANCISCO, July '8.-A thrill
ing tale of a narrow escape from death
in a snowstorm on the summit of Mt
Eddy, in the northern part of California
has been brought to this city by Capt.
w. c. Holiday, who led a pleasure
party up the mountain early in the
morning and arrived at the summit
at 10 o'clock.
The members were equipped with
light blankets and food for three days,
as they expected to spend some time
fishing in the lake which occupies the
extinct crater of the mountain.
At midnight it began to snow and be-
fore dawn the wind was blowing a
5O-mile gale Starting at daylight, it
was with the utmost difficulty that the
party reached the foot of the mountain
and the women members were so ex-
hausted by cold and the walk that they
had to be carried by the relief party
that met them at Guerneys, ten miles
from the summit.

GENERAL REYES DOES NOT
FEAR COLOMBIA REBELLION
President of Republic Says He Loes
Not Believe Vice President
HoIquin Will Trick Him

PARIS, July S.-General Rafael
Reyes. the president of the Republic
of Colombia, who is stopping in this
city with his daughter, minimizes the
revolution which broke out at Barran-
quilla last Sunday against his govern
ment The general told the Associated
Press today that his advices from
General Holquin, the president desig-
nate. with whom he is in constant
touch, are that the trouble was con-
fined to Barranquilla.
General Reyes said: General Hol-
quin is loyal to me, and have no fear
that he will play the same trick that
General Gomez played on General Cas-
tro when the lstter left Caracas for
Europe"
General Reyes says he does not be-
lieve the trouble on the Atlantic coast
is in any way due to discomfort over
the tri-state treaty between Colombia,
Panama and the United States, which
the coming Colombian congress is pre-
dicted to ratify.

IS TELEPHONE DIRECTORY
WORSE THAN SLOT CHINE
That Is Question That Is Puzzling San
Francisco Chief of Police
at Present

SAN FRANCISCO, July SIS tele-
phone directory a gambling device in
the eye of the law?
This is the question now puzzling
Chief of Police Cook, for one of his
vigilant patrolmen has reported to him
that the directories are being used for
the same purposes as the slot machines
and dice boxes which were put out or
business the first of this month.
A new city ordinance closed all slot
machines July l, and at the same time
an old ordinance forbidding dice shak-
ing for drinks and cigars was revived.
Now, according to the police, when
a party lines up at the bar some MEM
ber of it calls for the telephone di-
rectory, opens it at random and Sc
lects the number in the lower right
hand corner. The others do the same,
and the drinks are on the man who
picks the lowest number.

WILL MAKE EPWORTH
LEAGUE DEMOCRATIC
BISHOP SAYS TOO MANY MEM
BERS ARE GRAY-HAIRED
Meeting of Methodist Society at Seat
tie Shows Tendency Toward
Infusing Young Blood
Into Organization

SEATTLE, July 8-The movement
to make the Epworth league more
democratic, to take out of the hands
of the bishops and other dignitaries,
found expression at this afternoon
session of the international convention,
when Rev. DIR. J. II. Coleman OF Al
bany, N Y, looking out on the audi
ence, of whom probably one-third were
gray-haired, said:
II do not like this audience. There
are too many old people-too many
gray-heads. The Epworth league
should be for young people. The place
for the fathers and mothers should be
in the prayer meeting, In the church.
A great majority of the delegates are
youthful, but the board of control
transacts all the business. The young
er delegates do not attend the conven-
ton, but are to be found at the worlds
fair grounds sightseeing.
Dr. Chown of Toronto, discussing the
social unrest, deprecated the trend TO
Socialism. He said:
"If adopted, Socialism would necessi-
tate a quasi-mllitary system in indus
try. Every reform must have re-
ligious basis. An industrial system
with a secular foundation must fall.
The doctrine that each man must look
out for himself is atheism applied to
business.
1.-The millionaire and the tramp are
alike loafers in the sight Of God, whose
only way of making the desert bloom is
by labor. The man who corners the
market or in other ways takes advan-
tage of the necessities of his fellows
is a thief and a robber."
This was the busiest day on the
whole program, with morning, after
noon and night sessions. Most of the
d-bound delegates have arrived, and
only a few hundred are yet to come,
among these a party of sixty from New
York city, who were in the Royal
gorge blockade in Colorado.
The speakers tonight were Rev. Pur-
ley A. Baker of Columbus, Ohio, presl-
dent of the National AntiSaloon
league, and Rev. Homer c. Stuntz, Sec
retary of the board of foreign mis-
sions.

amounting to $50 cases, broke all rec
ords for a single day. and these aliens.
with 300 others whose cases were previ-
ously passed on, were sent aboard ship
to be returned to their homes.
Bandits Make Hauls-A reign
Of terror resulted in Centerville, a
suburb of Butte, Mont, Wednesday
night, when a masked bandit trio pro-
ceeded from one saloon to another and
in the course of less than an hour ana
a half had held up three resorts and
emptied their tills. A flourish of guns
and several shots in the ceilings suf-
feed to make their work easy, and the
frequenters of the places were lined
up against the wall while the tills were
tapped.
Beefsteak Champion - Philip
Lommel, weighing 200 pounds, has won
/ the championship medal as peet-
steak eater. In a contest with Max
Movers, 275 pounds, at a political club
outing, Lommel gorged himself with
ten pounds of beefsteak without get
ting up from the table, while Meyers
was able to stuff only eight and three
fourths pounds into himself. There
were many bets on this contest, which
was watched by an excited crowd of
several hundred persons.
Students Economic - With
cabins filed with pretty girl students
and cattle tenders, made up principally
of college men, the steamship Canadian
iIol ha sala "Wednesday. V.
The passenger list was made up mostly
of students and teachers who will spend
their vacation in a tour of Europe. A
bevy of Wellesley girls is along, and
some of them seemed interested in the
college boys who went into the cattle
mems quarters to change their natty
flannel suits for jumpers. The boys
signed as cattlemen to keep down eX-
penses.
Try to Beard Edward -
Angered by their failure to gain an
interview with Prime Minister Asquith
of England, the Pankhurst faction of
the suffragettes tried new tactics
Wednesday afternoon, and attempted
to beard King Edward in buckingham
palace. Mrs Pankhurst led the van.
There was no special detail of police
to keep the women out, but the regular
palace guards on duty gently, but firm
ly elected them from the palace
grounds There was none Of the vio-
lence which attended the women's last
raid on the house of common.
Saw Man with Pistol-Detec-
tive Sergeant James P. Ward of New
Haven, Conn, is authority for the
statement that a woman saw a man
with a pistol under his coat near Pres
ident Taft while the latter was assist
ing the town of Norwich, Conn, to
celebrate it's two hundred and fiftieth
anniversary. Ward had been assigned
to assist the Norwich police, and was
close to the president during the pa
rade. A woman in the crowd gave a
shrek, he states, and when he reached
her side she told him she had seen a
small man with a glistening revolver
under his coat, and that this man was
very close to the president.

NT EW YORK, July 8.-When Judge
" Hands division of the federal
~ court opened in New York July
seven sugar trust millionaires, officers
and directors of the American Sugar
Refining company, were arraisned on
the criminal indictments charging them
with conspiracy under the Sherman

sci and director: Arthur Donner, vice
president and treasurer; Charles ii.
Senff, director; John Mayer, director;
George II. Frazier, director; Gustav o.
