TO AID POINDEXTER
CONGRESSMAN LENROOT WILL
STUMP Washington.
Wisconsin Congressman Says Every
Progressive Republican in Con.
greSS Is Interested in CandidaCv
of POindexter for Senator. Active
Campaign TO Begin Next Week.

One of the Eastern speakers coming
to Washington in the interest of Miles
Poindexter and his campaign for SEN
stor is Congressman Irvine l.. Len.
root, of Wisconsin. In a recent letter
to friend in Spokane, the represen-
tative of the Badger State says:
Every Progressive republican in
congress is intensely interested in
Judge PoindeXter's campaign for the
United States senate in Washington.
He is one of the strong men in Con
sress, courageous, able and honest.
'The CannOn-Aldrich republicans
are attempting to read Judge PoindeX-
ter and his associates in congress out
of the republican party and at every
opportunity denOminate them demo-
Gratis The fact is that Judge PoindeX.
ter is much better and more consis.
tent republican than those who assail
him. The Payne-Aldrich bill was not
compliance with the pledges of the
republican platform as can easily be
demonstrated. President Taft virtual.
iy admits this by demanding a tariff
commission TO ascertain the cost in
production at home and abroad. a
measure which Judge PoindeXter and
all progressives are vigorously sup
porting.
Judge Poindexter and his assVciat-
es believe that the republican /plat-
form adopted at the national conven-
tion at Chicago should be a platform
to stand upon as, well as to get in up
on, and when Cannon, Aldrich and
their associates depart from that plat.
form progressive republicans refuse
to follow them. No authority was ever
given Aldrich and Cannon to amend
that platform after the presidential
election. Instead of PoindeXter be.
ing a democrat masquerading as a
republican, those who assail him here
in congress are as rule corporation
| senators and congressman masquerad.
! ing as republicans The cases are
very rare where Judge PoindeXter has
voted with the democrats, but they
have voted with him often. Nearly
every contest in congress for progress.
sive measures has been led by pro-
gressive republicans and many demo-
Gratis have voted with them.
"lf the republican party is to live
1t must be represented in congress by
men like Judge PoindeXter, whose sole
concern is the general welfare, and it
is the earnest hope that the great
state of Washington will honor itself
and him by electing him to the United
States senate

GEO. II. PARKER ARRESTED
United Wireless Fiscal Agent Is Ac.

SEATTLE, June 27.--The long-eX-
pected pricking of the United Wire.
less bubble, so far as concerns Seat
tie, came yesterday afternoon at 5
o'clock, when George H. Parker, the
most powerful official of the company
outside of New York City and fiscal
agent for the territory west of the
Mississippi, was arrested and taken
before United States Commissioner
w. d. Totten, charged with fraudu-
lent use of the mails. Parker prompt
ly furnished a bond of $4,000 and
was released. His examination will
take place August 1 in the commits.
sioner's office.
The specific count entered in the
complaint against Parker is a letter
written by him to- B. E. Shepperd,
1886 West Twenty-seventh street,
Des MOines, la. The letter is alleg-
ed to contain misleading and fraudu-
lent statements, with deliberate in.
tent to defraud the recipient. United
States District Attorney Elmer z.
Todd stated this morning, however,
that his Office was in possession of
many other epistles emanating from
the same source. which were sufficient
in his estimation to convict Parker
on the same charge a score of times.
The trial of the reputed millionaire
broker of Seattle will follow the trials
of the New York officials, President
c. c. Wilson and Vice-President Sam
uel S. BOgart. The same evidence
and many of the same witnesses will
be brought to Seattle to appear
against Parker, who is charged with
being a party to the same conspiracy
to defraud the American public.
Parker's arrest is one result of the
expose which has been conducted 10.
cally concerning the United Wireless
Telegraph company. Only yesterday
the fiscal agent was warning brokers'
in this city that no stock could be sold
unless he officially O-K'd it. This was
his precaution to assure himself of
so per cent commission on each share
sold, which he himself admits is his
portion of each sale. His arrest came
as a Dig surprise to him, for he had
not thought that matters would reach
head SO soon.
Federal Statute $3.50, under which
Parker was arrested. prescribes
punishment of five years imprison-
ment for each offense, a fine of ST.
900, or both. Under the statute how
ever, not more than three offenses
within six calendar months can be-
charged against the defendant.

HARVARD BADLY BEATEN
Yale Makes 18 Hits and 12 Runs Against 5 Tallies
 for Crimson

The weird antics of the reunion classes seemingly had their effect on the players of the Harvard ball team at Yale field yesterday afternoon, the Crimson going down before Yale 12 to 5. The heat may have had some thing to do with it, too, the sun beat ing down on the field and open stands without the slightest breeze to give re- lief. Many women who were on open stands were obliged to leave the field, and the reunion classes grouped on stands in the rear of left field sought what shade there was in front of the grand stands.
 The scene on the field before the opening of the game was a striking one, headed by the Highland pipers, the Tommy Atkins, sailors from the navies of the world. shouting gladi- ators, rough riders firing their revOl- vers and lassoing all within reach, and the varied colored harlequins paraded around the diamond to the cheers of the occupants of the stands, but the antics were cut short on account of the heat, and half an hour before time for the game to start every one had quieted down.
 While Yale made all their runs in two innings-four in the second and eight in the third-the game was nev- CT in doubt, as Harvard was able to get but a total of five. In the fourth Long was put in the box for liar ward in place of Mclaughlin, keeping Yale from scoring more runs. In the sixth Freeman replaced Tommers, and in the seventh Carhart went in for Philbin. The scoring of Yale in the third was due to a bunch of hits, six singles, a two-bagger, and three bagger. Yale's fielding at times was ragged.

 prejudice against the black. but he finally succeeded in securing Rick S resort, a road house about three miles southwest of the town which he de- clares is an ideal place for the negro's s training. Flanagan has wired John son to come here immediately. but it is hardly probable that the giant will leave Frisco before Thursday night, reaching here Friday morning.
 Reno people have declared that they will throw open their houses to those who come to see the fight so that the light spectators will not be compelled to live in Pullman cars while here.
 Reno is 4,500 feet above the sea-level, but sporting men already here say the change of altitude will have no effect on the two fighters.
 Reno will be a law-abiding town dur ing the Jeffries-Johnson milling. Chief of Police Burke and Sheriff Terrell have united and declared they will pre- serve order on July 4. They will per init no liquor to be sold in the fight arena. believing that the natural race prejudice. inflanled by whiskey, might result in trouble for Johnson if he whips Jeffries.
 Tex Rickard today announced that he was through with the prize fighting game for all time after the fight. "I shall have nothing more to do with pugilism," he said today. T will be a miner after July 4th''

JOHNSON TO GIVE
 MANAGER S3O,OOO

Johnsons Training Quarters, Seal Rock House. San Francisco, June 22- Jack Johnson is ready. for the trip in- to the mountains. But the black fel- low is undecided when he will leave for Reno although it is expected he will delay his start until Thursday night, reaching Reno Friday morning. Johnson has received a telegram from Tom Flanagan, his temporary manag- CT, notifying him that Kicks resort has been secured for training quarters, and urging him to go to Reno as quickly as possible. . In Johnson s party when it leaves here will be his wife, Sig Hart, Billy Delaney, George Cotton, Dave Mills, Professor Burns. Barney Furey, Frank Sutton and others.
 It has not been decided whether Al Kaufman will go but it is thought he will stay with the party.
 Johnson did lot of hard work yes terday going rounds with Cotton and Kaufman and punching the bag for some time. He will take things easy today and tomorrow and be pre- pared to jump right back into train ing when he reaches Reno. It is prob able that when Johnson leaves Frisco he will have settled his differences IT., Little insists that he should be paid $40, 900 while Johnson is willing to pay him $S0,OO0. It is expected the lat ter will be agreed upon
 Jack Gleason is still here winding up affairs. He has notified all per- sons who have bought tickets to the fight in this city that they can have the corresponding seats at Reno. or that their money would be refunded.
 Early indications are that most of the men who have already purchased tickets will go to Reno to See the fight.
 Jeffries was given a great send-off as he passed through this city last night and boarded a train in Oakland at 9:30. He was followed by a mob wherever he went and cheered Justify every time he appeared. The big feI- low was in much better humor than was expected and bowed repeatedly to the crowds that followed him about.
 Jeffries told me while waiting for his train that he did not believe the higher altitude of Reno would affect him in the least. q am faster than T ever was before in my fighting career he said and am feeling like I could enter the ring this minute have been punching lighter bags and my foot work has increased accordingly''.

NEWS HAPPENINGS
 AT JEFF'S CAMP
(By Max Balthasar.)

Jeffries Training Camp, Moana Springs, near Neno, New. June 22-Jim Jeffries and his trainers are again on of Moana. three miles south of Reno. The big fellow reached here early to- day and was given wonderful ova- ! ton as he left his private car.
 This little mining town has gone crazy over the prospects of having a l championship fight and nothing is too good for the fighters. though the color line is strictly drawn. and men. wo- men and children are shouting for oeffres. It is assured that the battle
 will take place on July 4th. at 1:3O p. m. At the same time Rickard an- nounced that he would not permit the Langford- d-Ketchel fight to be held in the arena on the morning of the big fight. The promoter who is facing financial loss due to the 11th hour move that drove him out of San Fran cisco does not want to take chance at splitting the gate receipts. As result the Langford-Ketchel fight is up in the air and may be postponed.
 Jeffries and Johnson will fight in an arena erected on the same spot where Hart and Root fought on July 4, 1906. This is about one mile from the cen- ter of Reno, easily accessible.
 Reno was notified yesterday morning that it would have to raise S17,000 to get the fight, of which s16.000 was a bond and the other s1.OOO was for the State license. Early today Contractors Mclaughlin and Walsh. who were building the fight arena in San Fran cisco. set a small army of carpenters to work on the fight building here. Identical1y the same plans that had been drawn for the Frisco building will be used here and the contractors have agreed to finish the work by July 1 so that there can be no possible delay in pulling off the mill
