HOUSE OF LORDS TO
Be SH0RK OF POWER

London, Dec. 21.-A secret confer
ence held today between King Ed
ward and Premier Asquith gave rise
to the belief that the king has de-
cided to create a sufficient number
of liberal peers to out-vote the con-
servaives on legislation and to deprive
the house of lords of it's power to
veto. 1t is known the conference was
upon the veto question but no other
information has been given out. 1t is
probable nothing definite will be
known until the king addresses par
Lament when it convenes.
Already politicians are discussing
probable legislation to be enacted by
the approaching parliament. That the
semi-public execution of Crippen will
have an influence upon the penal laws
was intimated today by A, C. Benson,
son of the late Bishop OF Canter-
bury, He is preparing a bill abolish
ing hangings and substituting death
by Lethal means.

SAYS HER HUSBAND
PAINTED HIS FACE

New York, Dec. 21.-The judge
was so astonished last week when the
Weisses took their domestic troubles
to him for settlement that he decided
it would be best to fix the husbands
bail at $500 and let him return today
to face the wife's charges. No lawyer
could put it better than Mrs. Weiss,
whose testimony is as follows: l
could tolerate his looking occasionally
at other women, judge, and also his
staying out late at night, even though
We were married only a year, but I
couldn't stand his painting his face,
it's bad enough for a woman to do so.

fifteen minutes before the mirror everv

penciling his eyebrowsl Well. Judge,

and her husband is two years her sem
ior. The Judge will decide today
whether she ought to have a separa-
ton or an out-and-out divorce.

that the report will be very encour-

by Clark Bell, the well-known lawyer,
wants Governor White to commute
Patrick's sentence, pending a scientif-

most famous in the country, because
of the number of distinguished men

Question to Be Decided With
in Twenty four Hours, Says
President Stone,
COMMISSIONER NELL UNABLE
TO AVERT OPEN RUPTURE
Engineers are Firm in Their Demands
and Railroads Refuse to Make Ad-
ditional Concessions Sixty-on
Western Roads VIII Probably be
Tied up Before Tomorrow Night
All Offers of Compromises Have
Been Rejected.

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 21.-Whether To-
comotive engineers will strike on sixty
one western roads is to be decided
within twenty-four hours, according
to President Stone today.
He said: I'VE won't tolerate fur
ther delay. There must be short,
sharp and decisive action"
Commissioner Neill who is trying to
arbitrate the differences has held a
conference with the railroad manag-
ers and holds one this afternoon with
the employees. Indications are that
they are not near any settlement.
UNLESS Neill is able to do something
for US this afternoon. we are going
to act" said Stone. Delay in intoler-
able.
The best the railroads have offer
ed US thus far is an increase of 9 1-2
per cent. This of course was refused
All other offers of the roads made re-
garding the questions at issue have
also been rejected"
Railroad officials say Stone is only
bluffing. Neill said he is doing all he
could to prevent strike. He would
not discuss the situation.

SALOON ORDINANCE
NOT PR0H|B|T|vE
PRESENT DISPENSERS
ARE NOT DAUNTED
Applications TO be Made Tonight for
Full Number Allowed Under New
L..W--All Thirteen Near Beer Men
Uarr Petitions in and Others are
~ -ted-Licenses Also Requested
.Jr Drug Stores.

That the new saloon regulating or
dlnance as adopted recently by the
city council is not so stringent as to
be prohibitory is proven by the num-
Der of persons who have made appli-
cation for licenses. Every man who
is at present conducting a near beer
establishment, and there are thirteen
of these, either has already filed or
Will file before the council meets this
evening, his application with Recorder
F1tz Gerald and it is probable that
two or three others not now in busi-
ness Will do likewise. AS the new Or
dinance limits the numbers of saloons
to IL, it is certain that Pendleton will
have the full number allowed.
Up until o'clock this afternoon
the following men had filed their ap-
plications with their $4,000 bonds:
Antoine Nolte. Alfred Schneiter, Will
liam A. Hook, w. G. Bogart, Antoine
Kraft. David Gorgon, James Harvey
Taylor, and w. A. Brown while Mar
tin Anderson, George Darveau and
others had signified their intention of
applying before evening. The Pen
dleton Drug Store Tallman Drug COM
pany and the Red Cross Drug Store
had filed their applications and bonds
for drug store licenses, while Gus La
fontaine, proprietor of the Quelle had
applied for restaurant license.
The council will receive these appli-
cations at the meeting this evening
but will probably refer them to a COM
mittee for a week.
