No Attempt Made Yet to
Answer Statements of
Steenerson.
SHIP INTERESTS
USING THREATS
Have Tried to Intimidate
congressman Into Vot-
ing Wrong.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-(Special
to the Statesman mo attempt has
been made as yet to answer the
charges made by Representative Hal
vor Steenerson of Minnesota (repub-
lican) to the effect that the interests
behind the Humphrey-Ta ship subsi-
dy bill have attempted to "intimidate,
terrify and influence him into aban-
doning his opposition to that measure.
Believing that the payment of $4,000
900 annually from the treasury to pri-
vate ship owners, as provided for in
the Humphrey bill, constitutes
class legislation of the most vicious
type, Steenerson intends voting
against the bill, as do other republic
cans as we'll as nearly every democratic
member of the house. Because of this
attitude toward the pending bill, Steen-
erson has been attacked by the Mer-
chant Marine league of the United
States and other interests behind the
ship subsidy bill, the hirelings of
which organization have eRdeavored to
create the impression that Steenerson
and all others, including the news
papers, opposed to the Humphrey bill,
are in the employ of foreign shipown-
ers. Vast sums of money have been
spent to carry On the blackmailing
campaign. Millions of letters have been
written by these agencies to discredit
opponents of the ship subsidy graft.
Steenerson introduced a resolution
providing for a congressional investi-
cation of what he declared was a
conspiracy" on the, part of the inter-
ests which would profit by the passage
of the proposed legislation to "unduly
and improperly" influence members of
congress. This resolution was referred
to the committee on the judiciary, and
is now in the hands of subcommittee
consisting of John 4. Sterling of nlin-
ois, (republican); George r. Malby
of New York, (repiblican), and Will

Opposing leaders in the rules fight
began a conference at 3 o'clock. They
occupied the greater part of the morn
ing in an effort to effect compromise.
Cannoas.g aron sed -effacement from
the house rules committee was the
point upon which the conferees could
not agree.
Then an official announcement that
the fight would go on upon the floor
of the house was made by the leaders.
OF the regulars, Dalzell and Mann pre-
vented the compromise by insisting
that Cannon remain on the rules COM
mittee.
Martin, of South Dakota, intro
duced a compromise resolution, pro-
viding for a committee of ten men,
bers and after the expiration of the
present term, the speaker would not
be eligible. This was rejected by both
sides.
Mann, of Illinois, declared the allies
did not offer the regulars anything in
the way of compromise, but on the
other hand demanded every conces-
sion. When asked how he expected
the fight to result, he said:
'I expect the regulars will be beat
en-
This, coming from the staunchest
supporter of Cannon, is taken as one
of the strongest indications of the
possible downfall of the Cannon re-
gime. Tawney said every compro-
mise offered involved the humiliation
of the speaker.
Shortly after the house reammesbled
today, Speaker Cannon sustained the
point of order raised by Dalzel,
against the consideration of the Norris
resolution to change the organization
of the rules committee and eliminate
the speaker therefrom.
A roll call was ordered on Dalzelrs
point of order, which was also mo-
ton to lay the resolution on the table.

Details of Transfer Comes Through an
Agreement a to Territory.

Further confirm alton of the sale of
the Northwestern corporation, publish
ed first exclusively in the Evening
Statesman, comes from Portland, in
the news that the n. M. BylIesby COM
pany has sold the Northwestern cor
poration holdings to the Electric Band
& Shares company. The release of
the newly acquired holdings was
brought about by an agreement be-
tween the two rival firms as to ter
ritory.
The price paid is $4,000, 900, and the
Byesby company comes out ahead
some 100000 or $500,O00 on the deal.
The Electric Bond & Shares company
will take over holdings in Walla Walla,
North Yakima, Eugene, Lewiston, Pen
dIeton, Vancouver and other places,
and the buying company already owns
the Portland Gas company.
Officers Reach Agreement.
The transfer comes through an
agreement between officers of the two
companies Under this agreement the
Byllesby company will hencefcrth con-
fine its operations to Oregon and the
willamette valley outside of Portland,
allowing the Electric Bond & Share
company. which is said to be connec-
TED with the Standard Oil company in
terests. full sweep of other sections
of the northwest.
Some time ago the H. NJ. Byl.esby
company secured an option on the
North Yakima, Walla WIalla, Pendle-
ton and Lewiston systems of the
Northwestern corporation. This op-
tion was to have expired March 16,
hut was renewed until Monday next
to allow the Chicago company an op-
portunity to complete the transfer.
One story had it that when the
Byllesby company found the Pendle-
ton and Lewiston plants were not max

the terms of the option changed so
that only the North Yakima and Walla
Wa Ia pants would be included. Bu9,
SO runs the ~umor. the Northwestern
corporation would not allow this, and
then the Byllesby company set at
work attempting to relieve itself OF
the burden
Strahcrn Interests Involved.
But this rumor is denied by officers
OF the company, who say I that the
transfer was made to the Electric
Bond * Share company because of
division of territory. The North Coas-
Railway company, known as "Stra-
horn's mystery" enters in the deal. 1t
Is known, also, that the Northwest

Copper shares were a trine stronger
today, although the public buying was
inconsequental. Naturally after much
a break was experienced during the
past few days, a rally of some impor-
tance might be expected. Such being
the case the action of today's market
was disappointing. Closing prices for

change from yesterdays final trades.

special issues were attempted but
proved unsuccessful. North Butte

as 5Sh and UP again to 60. The trad
