MORE CHARGES
FOR 'WAPPY'
TOANSWER
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SEATTLE, April 10. = That
there has been an understanding
for years between the police de-
partment and big steamship COM
panies, so that the boat officials
could always count on special po-
lice protection, is the charge
made by union men here today
following the indictment late Sat-
urday of Chief Wappenstein on
a charge of extortion.
Wappenstein is accused of col
lecting 5000 from the Pacific
Coast Steamship company for pro-
tecting its piers. AS he had bail
in the amount of $65,000 up on
three previous indictments, Judge
Main only required an additional
$4,000.
"Under Wappenstein when he
was chief before, and under other
administrations" said an official
Of the Seamen's union today, "the
unions always had a bitter fight
every time they had any difficult
ties with the steamship companies,
because the police were always
rushed to the aid of the COM
panies at the first sign of trou-
ble."

SeymourWorkers
Favor Opening
OF District

The Railway Mems Political
club seems to be for. Seymour
and the restricted district.
F. H. Petit, candidate for COM
missioner of public safety. was
given hard grilling by the. club
Saturday night when he went be-
fore it to state his views.
Petit is opposing Roys. He is
against his policies. He is against
the restricted district and he said
so plainly. He declared II he took
the place of Roys he would not
tamper with the evil but would
apply the law on the social evil
just as he wo~a on murder and
robbery.
This did not suit some Of the
railway club agitators who are
working for Seymour. They pro-
ceeded to argue the proposition.
Wilburn Fairchild, who ran for
commissioner himself last year,
declared he was for the restricted
district and he tried to argue
Petit out of his position. Sam
Page helped. They showed they
were for the district strong. 9th
er railway men took hand but
no one seemed 10 encourage Petit
in his statement that he was
against the whole thing and that
he would hit it on the head"
whenever he got a chance.
No official action was taken
but the apparent sentiment of this
bunch of Seymour workers was
entirely for the restricted district
as no one took the side of Petit
against it.
Petit finally asked Sam Page in
the controversy whether he would
have the city own the building for
a restricted district. Page said
yes.
This is the view accredited to
Seymour ON the subject, he hav-
ing so indicated to a North End
citizen before the campaign start

Tacoma Girl Finds
Brother With Rebels

Pretty Miss Mary Smith, of
718 North L street, who left home
ten days ago supposedly on a
business trip to California, but in
reality starting for the Mexican
border in search of her brother
Alexander, wired her parents this
morning that she had found him
and had been successful in per-
suading him to leave the rebel
forces and return home.
Z II had not the least idea of the
real object OF her trip" said her
mother this morning. 81 guess
she was afraid to tell me for fear
she wouldn't succeed. But when
she kissed me goodbye, she said:
Don't you worry, mamma; every
thing will come out all right"
The Smith family were not
aware that the only son Alexan-
der, 20 years of age, had gone to
the Mexican border until they re-
ceived a letter from him saying
that he was with Williams forces
in Mexico. The parents were al
most prostrated by the news, SO

A year ago the street car COM
pany ground to death a woman on
the Fern Hill line because II fall
ed to obey the law and equip with
tenders and now again a coroner's
Jury is compelled to find the COM
pany once more harvesting death
by it's refusal to obey the DEGREES
of the law.
Following the publication of
the law last year by the Times
the authorities got busy. Prose-
cutor McMurray, who had been
asleep all the months since taking
office, finally took the matter up
and the state labor commissioners
came to Tacoma. The street rail-
way company agreed to equip
with drop tenders and it was CIV
en- out that they had ordered
equipment.
Then the agitation quieted
down, the prosecutor went to
sleep again and the street railway
company went on as before run
ming its juggernauts of death up
and down the streets ready to slay
the innocent.
Again has. the natural result
followed criminal negligence and
another little grave shows for the
Inactivity of lazy prosecutor.
The law gives the county attor-
neys entire jurisdiction to prose-
cute and compel compliance with
the fender law. 1t especially ap-
points him to the task.

WARD HEELERS WORK
WITH SEYMOUR PRESS
Strong Effort Made to Hold Woman and Saloon
Vote Together.

The Seymour special interest
crowd sees the handwriting on
the wall and is making a desper-
ate effort to hold the women and
the church vote in line for the
corporation candidate by bald
faced lying.
"The mayor is playing the old
game of winking at the saloons
while trying to make the people
believe the saloons are against
him." shouts the subsidized organ.
Ward politicians of the Jim
Foster stripe are talking before a
few sympathizers and bowling
against the mayor. Then the sub
sidized organs exploit this rot in
big black headlines.
This sort of thing has been 60
ing on for the last two weeks.
It Is getting fiercer and more de-
termined now that the church vot-
ers are beginning to see through
the game.
None of these politicians has
ever brought forth a single item
OF evidence. They have howled
that the mayor is in league with
the saloons and never ventured to
give a bit of evidence.
One of the canards sprang by
the subsidized organ was that the
mayor was not enforcing the anti
treating ordinance.
The very day this lie came out
new complaints were signed and
new saloonkeepeps were arrested.
Seven of them had been arrested
Saturday and three convicted, the
trials of the others not yet having
been held.

down his license money and says

TAFT GAVE MEXICO SIX
DAYS To- BACK DOWN

President Taft gave Mexico Just
six days to back down" and that
the proof of the compact was
brought to Washington by Am
bassador Wilson in actual photo
graphs of parts of the secret
treaty were revelations which
have caused the greatest suppress
ed excitement. OF course, no de-
partment officer will confirm the
statements, and the presidents
advisers are mute. Little doubt
is expressed, however, that the
secret story of President Taft's re-
markable mobilization has at last
been fully set forth.

the saloons stand.
When Tony Berens says he is
not buying any more goods but
getting ready to close up because
of the activity of Mayor Fawcett
against the saloons there is evi-
dence which counts.
If these Seymour shouters have
any evidence that Mayor Fawcett
has let up on the saloons or is in
any way tied up with them trot
the evidence out, the people want
to know. They have a right to
know.
And the people are not so green
but that they know that If these
facts existed the Seymour ranters
would give them.
On the face of it the statements
are false. Seymour got the sa-
loon vote in the first election and
he still has 1t.
What is bothering his corpora
ton supporters is that the people
are getting onto it and many who
were deceived before are leaving
him now.

Jute Mill Bill.

olympia, March 2O.-Governor NJ
E, Hay disposed of five of the eight
bills still before him today. All five
received his approval, but the section
OF senate bill PIP, the penitentiary
Jute mill bill, was Topped off by the
veto. This section provided that the
board of control should run the jute
mill up to its full capacity through
out the year, and the governor felt
this mandate would prove a serious
obstacle to operating the rock quar-
rles steadily, and that the best inter
ests of the state would be conserved
by removing the mandatory provis-
ion.
