VALLADARES AGAIN ON
RAMPAGE IN HONDURAS
President Is Defied by Comman-
dant of AmapaIa, Who Is
Securely Intrenched

WASHINGTON, Nov. Back on
his own island and intrenched behind
a battery of machine guns, Gen. Jose
Valladares, the eccentric commandant
of Amalpa, the acific port of Hondu-
ras, has openly def1ed President Davila
to put him out of his job. The United
States gunboat Princeton, which has
been at Amalpa about three weeks to
protect American interests, has been
ordered to stay there until relieved.
Both state and navy departments
have dispatches from Honduras tell
ing of Valadares' queer performance.
Minister McCreery in Tegucigalpa tel
egraphed last night that Valladares
had left the capital in company with
Cen. Calipto Carias. who had been des-
ignated by the president as his sue
cessor.
Valladares told TIL president he
would turn the island over to Carias,
after which he would return to the
capital.
Valladares evidently changed his
mind, for he issued a manifesto which
he telegraphed to the president assert
ing that the pr, -:dent was weak and
unworthy and dominated by foreigners
and that he considered it his duty to
resume the command of Amalpa. He
promptly sent Carias back to the MAIN
land in a launch and announced that
he would make trouble if any foreign
ers interfered.
Commander Hayes the Princeton
cabled the navy department today just
after he had received orders to go to
Panama for coal that Valladares had
returned and assumed charge of Anal
pa. He added that the Princeton
should remain there at present.
Acting Secretary of the Navy Win
throp at once ordered the Princeton to
stay. The Yorktown probably will be
sent from Panama to relieve her.

TROOPS AIM BLOW At
PORTUGUESE REPUBLIC
Government, MenaCed by a New
Revolt, Probably Will Yield
to the Soldiers

LISBON, Nov. 2.-The new republic
of Portugal Is threatened with a mill
tary revolution. The Second and Fifth
regiments today addressed a round
robin to Provisional President Braga,
declaring that they were prepared for
an insurrection If they were not grant
ed the promised promotions and PEN
sions for helping overthrow the mon
archy The government probably Will
yield.
The royalists who have adhered to
the republic demand the same rewards
as the revolutionists proper seek to
exact The revolutionary crew of the
cruiser Sac Raphael, which bombarded
the royal palace during the revolution
ary outbreak, has been dismissed.
The crew of the cruiser Adamaster,
which also fred upon the home OF
King Manuel, has refused to leave the
vessel unless the members are guaran-
teed a pension of $10O month each
for life.
In order to avoid disorder it is likely
that the government will grant all OF
these demands.
A secret committee representing an
element that is dissatisfied with the
course of the new government has been
planninf q revolution for some time.
Last night it held a meeting to protest
against the leniency shown by Braga
and his associates toward members OF
the old regime. There are also troubles
in the provinces, where the people re-
fuse to recognize the governments ap-
pointees to positions of trust, on the
ground that the new officers are inca
pable.
Disorders In the provinces on the
occasion of the elections for members
of the constituent assembly are feared.
Teixeira de Sousa Abreu, Malheiro
and Reymae, former members of the
Franco cabinet, and jointly charged
with Franco with haging issued illegal
decrees were arrested TODAY.

CLAIMS FANATIC
BLEW UP MAINE
Col. Jasper Ewing Brady De-
CIares Disaster the Work of
Spanish Electrician
STATEMENT is DISCREDlTED
Rear Admiral Wainwright Asserts
No Military Board InveS-
tigated Explosion
STATEMENT is DISCREDITED
ASSOCIATED Press)

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 2.-When
day denying the truth of statements
made by him in a lecture here last
night concerning the sinking of the
battleship Maine in Havana harbor,
Col. J. F. Brady said:
II expected the denial from Wash
ington. I don't suppose more than
three or four men knew of the inves-
tigation. There is one man, however,
who has all the facts, and when the
proper time comes he will confirm my
statements"
Colonel Brady said he had been mis-
quoted to the effect that the Maine
disaster was the work of Cubans.
"The Maine was anchored over a
submarine mine" he said. "a fanati-
cal Spaniard simply turned on the
switch and caused the explosion"
In his lecture at st. Georges church
here Colonel Brady, who was one of
the four officers sent by the govern
ment to investigate the destruction
of the Maine, asserted the information
had been sent to the president and the
secretary of war.
Colonel Brady said: "Now I will tell
you for the first time the name of the
man who blew up the Maine. He is,
or was, Jose Zavaldo. He was elec-
trician at Moro castle. 1t was he
who threw the switch which set off
the powerful mine that destroyed the
ship and sent POI lives into eternity in
a fash Zavaldo was afterward shot
by order of General Blanco. We even
got a piece of the cable that led from
the mine to the room in MORO castle.
That piece of cable is now in the navy
department at Washington"
The former officer in his talk de-
scribed the condition of the Maine
after the explosion and gave reasons
for his statement that the ship was
blown up by a mine.
According to his statement the con-
crete false bottom of the vessel was
blown to pieces and particles fell on
the decks of ships anchored nearby.
Colonel Brady is a brother of Rev.
Cyrus Townsend Brady, the author,
who is pastor of st. Georges church,
where the lecture was delivered.
Jasper Ewing Brady was formerly
attached to the signal corps in the
limited States navy and held the rank
of captain, but retired in 1899. General
Charles F. Allen, chief of the signal
corps, said Brady was a telegraph
operator and had written O number of
magazine articles. He did not know,
however, that he had been on any
board charged with the investigation
of the destruction of the Maine.
Rear Admiral Wainwright. who was
executive officer of the Maine at the
time the vessel was blown up, said to-
day that there had been no military
board appointed to investigate the dis
aster.
Admiral Wainwright branded as un-
true the statement that piece of
cable that led from the mine to a room
i'm MORO castle was now in the navy
department. If there had been any
such cable, he declared, 1t would have
been discovered by the divers who
examined the hull after the explosion.

DIRECTORS ELECTED
Annual Meeting of Pacific Farmers
Union Company Stockholders
Held Monday.

Monday of this week the annual
meeting of the stockholders of the
Pacific Farmers Union, which com
pany owns The Herald and Pacific
Fairness Union newspapers and
printing plant, was held in Pullman
and a new board of directors was
elected. There was good attendance
of stockholders, there being els of
the SAL shares issued represented at
the meeting.
After the work of the committee
on credentials had been finished and
the report made and adopted, there
was some discussion as to the con-
dition and management of the plant,
An Investigation of the books was
made and these showed a net gain
for the first ten months of the ex-
istence of the paper, under the pres
ent management The election of
board of directors resulted in select
ing the following well known men:
R. c. McCroskey, Garfield; H. II.
Mclean, Walla Walla; p. w. Cox,
ColfaX; George Sieyers, Moscow, and
j. M. Reid, Pullman. Mr.. Sievers
is member of the board which has
had control for the past 10 months,
having been elected last April. Mr..
Reid is one of the founders of the
Pacific Farmers Union, and a well
known citizen of Pullman. r. c. Nc
Croskey and phil" Cox are too we'll
known to need introduction. Mr.. Nc
Lean is one of Walla Walla's most
substantial and respected citizens,
being an extensive land owner and
successful farmer. The estimated
wealth of the five men composing the
board is placed near one million dol
lars, and as all are recognized as
men of good judgment and business
ability the two newspapers published
under their direction are assured of
a wise administration
c. II. Talmage, who has had the
arrangement of the plant for the
past ten months, had rendered his
resignation and asked to be relieved
in order that he might accept an
other position. The board is now ne
gotiating with we'll known newspa-
per man to take charge of the plant,
and it is likely that Pullmans pop
ulation will be increased by the ad-
dition of another family in a short
time

Mrs. Mckenzie, wife of Uncle
Dan" Mckenzie, is lying in a cri IL
cal condition at the family home on
Mckenzie street, as a result Of a
stroke of paralysis last Thursday
night. Mrs. Mckenzie is rs years old
and grave fears are held that she
will not recover. Mr.. Mckenzie was
awakened in the night and found his
wife lying speechless and almost
rigid. She has been unable to speak
since. Uncle Dan" has been in i'll
health all fall, but has recovered suf-
ficiently to be able to be out and
around their home.
Harry Mckenzie seems doubly af-
ficted. In addition to the serious ill
ness of his mother, his home is quar-
antined, for his little daughter, s
years old, has scarlet fever, and
while her condition is not regarded
as dangerous. it is serious enough
to cause the family much uneasiness
and the quarantine is causing them
much inconvenience.

/ would be a good thing for the pros
pectiye chauffeur to have. and that
will cost so cents,
Mr.. Stacey admitted to me that
he received these money orders and
signed the name of Reed NJ. Thomas
to them, and tried to cash them at
the post office. Postmaster Allen
says the same thing. l had much
sympathy for him at first. but when
| learned that after | had talked
with him he had tried to cash the
money orders | did not feel so sym
pathetic.
h. p. Allen, postmaster at Pull
man, said: Il went to Spokane Tues
day and placed the matter in the
hands of the post office inspector.
Guggenheim had post office box All
and r. NJ. Thomas had post office
box as. | refused to cash the money
orders without Identification and
they have not been cashed."
There is a severe penalty attach
ed to any attempt to use the United
States mails for fraudulent purposes.
The postal inspectors who are at
work on the case will probably make
Ia thorough investigation and some
action is expected in the immediate
future.
G. d. Stacey, who seems to have
taken the lead in the matter, puts
an entirely different light on the
question. Mr. Stacey said: 1--WE will
be able to prove that there was no
attempt to swindle We have men
with money and automobiles who are
ready and willing to make this trip.
| admit that the use of fictitious
names puts bad light on it, but
that can easily be explained. We ex-
pect to have the matter fixed up ami
cably within day or two. | deeply
regret the publicity given to the af-
fair and fear it may reflect on the
college"
Prof. o. L. Waller gives Mr.. Sta
cey a good reputation and is anxious
to have the matter settled without
further notoriety, Prof Waller says
that Mr., Stacey has borne an enyi-
able reputation until this matter
came up and he attributes it more
to lack Of thought as to the conse-
quences, than any willful attempt to
lefraud. Mr.. Stacey has manfully ia
ken all the blame for the affair and
is shielding any others who may
have been connected with him in the
deal. Mr.. Stacey has many warm
friends in Pullman who are rallying
to his support and will do all in
their power to assist in straighten-
ing up the matter The Herald sin
cerely hopes this may be done.
