APPLE men IN ARMS
AGAINST PORTER BILL

Hood River apple growers are up in
arms agsinst the Porter bill, which
has been introduced in Congress and
proposes to increase the size OF the
apple box used by northwest growers.
In addition to the resolution which
was recently passed by the local hor-
ticultuIal society protesting against
its adoption, the Oregon delegation
in congress has been formally asked
to work against the measure, and the
apple men of Washington have sent j.
l.. Dumas. owner of the big Pomona
apple ranch at Dayton, to the capital
city to use his influence to bring
about its defeat.
Il is stated that the matter may be
taken up officially by the Hood River
Apple Growers union, which will
communicate with other similar or
ganiZations in the state, asking that
they use their utmost efforts to pre-
vent the bill from passing; and also
for their cooperation in raising funds
to send a representative OF the apple
growers OF the state to Congress
to work with Nh. Dumas in opposing
a measure which it IL stated will mean
an annual loss to growers on the coast
of 81, 100000.
One of the probable courses OF so-
tion will be to prepare memorial to
congress showing that the present box
in use in the northwest, which was
adopted several years ago as the stand
ard box of the frultgI overs organiZa.
tiou, contains 300 more cubic inches
than the Winchester bushei, at pres
ent accepted as the standard in the
United States. 1t wi also be shown
that change such as the one propos-
ed will disorganize the present method
of packing and shipping apples and
place growers on the coast under un-
fair competition until an altogether
new system could be inaugurated
Apple growers also object to the
passage of the bill in whole or in part,
particularly provision in it which
states hat boxes not conforming to
the larger size stipulated In the Port
or bill shall he marked "short tux. "
This, they say, Is placing an unfair
restriction on the abpple products Of
northwest t. 1t is also said that the
apple box now in use contains over a
bnshel OF apples that are all salable
and as near perfect as 1t is possible to
have them, and that dealers who are
pushing the Porter bill are taking an
unjust course to compel the grower
to give them more fruit in order for
the buyers to take profits which justly
belong to the grower.

FATHER, WIFE AND

Seeley, who was lawyer was at one
time a United States bank examiner,
and is supposed to have committed
the deed in fit OF insanity.
A dispatch to the Journal from
Seattle states that Seeley, bis wife,
Kate NJ. Seeley, a member OF the
Daught, rs OF the Revolution, and his
daughter, Rene Seeley, pretty girl,

ably the insane father their bodies

residence, at 307 Eighteenth avenue.
Seeley's body, his head hanging over
the edge OF the bath tut, was along
side that OF his wife Over the body

steamer trunk. This trunk furnishes
the only unconnected link In the evi.
dence theat points to murder and sui
eide for the question is asked, "How
did 1t get there?" 1t would seem inn
probable that Seeley, after having
killed bis wife and daughter and drag.
ged their bodies into the bath room,
could have taken poison and still had
strength enough to place the trunk
over the bodies of himself and wife.
Yet this was probably what he did.
Robbery WAS not an object in the
murders. Nothing WAS stolen from
the house. The deaths must have

TAFT TALKS TO COUNCIL.
of American Federation of Labor
Concerning Problems of
Working Man.

WASH NGTON, April 2O.-Presi-
dent Taft discussed the problem of
the working man for two hours to-
day with the members of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. The labor
leaders. headed by Samuel Gompers.
called at the White House and ac-
eording 10 Mr.. Gompers, found the
president deeply interested. Not
only did Mr.. Taft give the spokesman
of the party all the time they desired
so lay their matters before him. but
he Joined in the discussion.
In the delegation were representa-
tiyes of most or the trades affiliated
with the American Federation, and
among them a number of leaders
who stubbornly opposed Mr.. Taft in
the late presidential campaign. But
the greeting was cordial TO all. Mr..
Taft told his callers that he would
investigate such of the matters as
seemed TO require it and would be
glad to help in arriving at a proper
solution of the difficulties in which
the working people found themselves
The labor leaders took up with
the president many problems inelud-
ing the matter of injunction and the
eight hour law convict labor, the
recent Indictment of labor leaders in
the south for alleged violations of
the Sherman antitrust law the
danger of a dissolution of all labor
organizations under strict inter
probation of recent supreme court
DECISIONS, the maintenance of inter-
national peace, labor problems on the
Panama canal. the right of asylum
in this country for political refugees
and child labor.
President Taft told his visitors he
regarded an anti-injunetion law as
one of the most important policies of
his administration. He added that
he felt he had made his position clear
on the subject in his speech of ac-
eeptance since July, and had confirm
ed that position in his inaugural adj
dress. The president said he would
be glad to consult further with rep
resentatives of organized labor.

TURNS DOWN APPLICATION OF
MRS. SoTHERN FOR DIVORCE,
FOLLOWING RULING REQUIR-

RENO. New. April 20-Judge Pike
of the district court today announc-
ed his refusal 10 entertain iurisdie-
tion from the celebrated proceedings
begun last July by Virginia Harmed
Sothern, for divorce from her cell
ebrated husband. h. IL. Sothern.
Judge Pixies decision, it is con-
eeded settles beyond question the
fact that Virginia Harmed Sothern
cannot secure a divorce from her
husband unless either he or she
comes to the state and takes up such
residence here as proves conclusively
bona fide intention to remain here.
The particular point settled Is
that on complaint filed by a nom
resident plaintiff, with process served
on "A nonresident defendant who
happens to be temporarily in the
state, no jurisdiction is secured for
the purpose of allowing divorce
decree.
Mrs. Sothern relied on a part Of
the divorce law allowing service on
defendant in the county where he
may be found" Judge Pike declares
this means where he may be found
as a bona fide resident of the state.

Large crowds gathered at the
British Embassy, where report had
il that the Sultan had taken refuge
today and there were score of i'm
quirics concerning the truth of the
rumor that the Sultan was under
the protection of Russia ON one of
its guardships.
Al both of these embassies all
knowledge of the sultan's movements
was denied, and the Turkish foreign
Office also gave n strong denial TO
all these rumors. The abdication of
Abdul Hamid. however, appears to be
certain and IL appears that within
day or two the constitutionalists
may accept as his successor Prince
Yusof Issedin. the eldest son of the
late sultan, who is second In line. as
they are strongly displeased with
Abdul Hamd's attitude. The palace
today was under guard and even high
officials were not permitted to enter.
The constitutional forces this
afternoon sent out small parties To
reconnoiter and at 7 o'clock in the
