SUfFRAGETTES ARE
 ROOSEVELT DELEGATES
EstI -
CALIFORNIA CONTEST BEFORE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CON-
 MITTEE IS UNIQUE.

Chicago, June "A contest filed in the fourth California district, it de- veloped tonight is intended to affect the entire delegation from California, Oregon and North Dakota, involving 46 delegates. Among the delegates involved are the two "suffragettes' from California, pledged to Roosevelt.
 The contest which assails the le- gality of the states primary on the ground that it's provisions are not in harmony with the rules laid down for the election of delegates in the off, cial call of the national committee, directly affects Colonel Roosevelt, who carried California and Oregon, and Senator LaFollette, who was victor ious in North Dakota. The question at issue is the right of a state to en- act law making the state. rather than the district, the unit in the elec- ton of delegates to a national con- vention.
 S. F. Hogue of San Francisco, who arrived here tonight as the repre- sentative of the Taft legislative com mittee of California, to look after the contest in the fourth district of that state, intimated that the national committees ruling in this case would have a direct bearing in the case of every state where tine delegates were chosen at large by direct vote.
 Roosevelt leaders declare this con- tentiun IS purely technical
 It is said that platforms diametri- cally opposite will be presented to the committee on resolutions of the Re publican convention by the Taft and Roosevelt forces. The Taft resolu- tions intended for insertion in the party platform will, it is said, be con- servative in tone and make a feature of a constitutional government plank in addition to urging supplemental legislation to the Sherman antitrust act authorizing national control of corporations.

KERN STILL TALKING
 ON LORIMER CONTEST
LONG MINDED ARGUMENT GOES OVER ANOTHER DAY IN sEN-
 ATE DELlBERATlo

Washington, June 7.-Senator Kern of Indiana, spoke for three hours to- day in support of the resolution to un- seat Senator Lorier of Illinois.
 He will conclude tomorrow.
 MT. Kern declared many members of the Illinois legislature, including Senator Holstlaw and Charles A. White, had received large sums about the time tha, money in the interest of Lorimer is alleged to have been used
 He also declared it suspicious that so many members of the legislature hired safety deposit boxes soon after the Lorimer election.
 Senator Kern eontended that Chas. A. White, tine democratic member oi the house whose confession was the basis of the double Lorimer inquiry was not as black as he had been pic tured.
 MT Kern undertook to show MT Whites connection with Lorimer and Browne, declaring it appeared that Browne had promised White a federal place and had actually obtained a place in Cook county for him through Isorimer
 Would you have the senate under stand that a senator's effort to obtain a position for member of the legis- lature who had voted for him is an evidence of corruption?" asked the ac- cused senator
 Standing by itself, no; taken in connection with a thousand other cir cumstances, yes,' replied Mr. Kern.

HANFORD DOES NOT
 FEAR IMPEACHMENT
FEDERAL JUDGE WILL CONTINUE TO HOLD COURT AND RULE
 UPON PETITION.

Seattle, Wash, June Limited States District Judge Carnelms Han ford presided over a civil trial in his court today, He refused to discuss the impeachment proceedings against him in Washington, except to say that he would answer every charge against him
 He will hold court in Tacoma next Wednesday and it is expected he then will rule upon the petition of United States District Attorney McLaren for a re-opening of the suit instituted by the district attorneys office for an- nulment of the citizenship papers oi Leonard Oleson, a suit which on May 10 was decided against Oleson.
 On Jan. 10, 1910. in Tacoma, Leon ard Oleson, aged 33. Scandinavian was granted citizenship.
 On Sept, 21, 1910, John Speed Smith a naturalization examiner, filed in sD- United States attorneys office ir Seattle an affidavit setting forth that Oleson appered as a witness for g petitioner for naturalization in the su- perior court of Pierce county, had stated in open court Sept 12, 1910 that he himself was not attached tC the principles of the constitution ol the United States, that he believed in radically changing it and that at the time he was admitted to citizenship he was not attached to the principles of the constitution.
 The district attorneys office there fore filed in the court of United States Judge Donworth, who has since re. signed, suit to annul Oleson's cit izenship papers. Oleson denied the charges against him.
 Oleson said he belonged to the So- cialist Labor party and the Industriar Workers of the World, but denied he was an anarchist.
 Judge Hanford said in his decision that Oleson had admitted he was a Socialist and held that the evidence introduced in Oleson's behalf proved that the party with which he is affil- lated, has for it's main object the elimination of property rights in this country"
 Judge Hanford aroused a storm o' protest during the recall campaign of 1910 against Mayor Gill by issuing an injunction forbidding the recal election as confscatory upon tax pay CTS.
 Impeachment petitions circulated 1T Seattle later and forwarded to Wash ington gave as reasons for demanding Judge Hanford's removal his decision and personal habits.

BOSTON'S STRIKING
 EMPLOYES IN RIOT
SERIOUS STREET DISTURBANCES MARK STRIKE OF ELEVATED
 RAILWAY WORKERS.

Boston, Mass, June 7.-Rioting broke out again this evening in con nection with the strike of employees of the Boston Elevated Street Rail way company, which began this morn ing. Disturbances occurred in Cam bridge and South Boston. In one outbreak in Cambridge three poEce- men were badly beaten and a revolver shot was fired at the conductor of a stalled car. Several arrests were made.
 The strike had spread tonight so service on many lines in the metro politan district was only occasional. Estimates of the number of men on strike varied widely. Union leaders claimed 2,500 members were out with additional members joining the strike hourly Boston Elevated company of ficials set the number of strikers at "about one thousand"
 The total number of men of all classes regularly employed by the Boston Elevated Railway company is 5000, of whom 5000 are uniformed employees.
 Efforts were made at meetings of several affiliated crafts tonight to have sympathetic strikes declared Principal among these whose assist ance is sought are the stationary en- gineers. Company officials are said to have made arrangements to fill the places of any striking engineers and were active today in importing men from other cities to take the places of strikers.
 All the men on strike are members of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employees, the local branch of which has been recently organized. It was the refusal of President Bancroft of the com pany to treat with employees on their demands as members of this organization that precipitated the strike.
 The days disorders, which develop ed immediately on the calling of the strike at a. m., resulted in the ar rest of nearly 30 men, charged with intimidation and assault, mostly. Three men received sentences of three months each in the house of correction, while others received les ser sentences.

Then without previous warning or discuss ion of the subject with the officers of the Oriental came the demand. pub licly announced, for the retirement of the outstanding clearing house certi- ficates before February 6. In previous periods. Of financial uneasiness certi- ficates nai been permitted to snn fer six months or more. In this instance the larger institutions had recovered their deposits and their equilibrium in shorter term. and then the situation resolved itself into case of the devil take the hinimost"
 The fatal blow had been struck at the Oriental and the run, both over the country and through the exchanges which followed, compelled the closing of it's doors. Subsequent events proved the monstrous injustice that was done to it and to it's president personally The latter was made use of to satisfy condition that threatened not merely the Oriental, but every clearing house. bank in New York at the time. When that condition was past the engage ments made with him were forgotten
 Within ten days of the closing of the bank the depositors have been pro vided for and paid, and it's clearing house loan certificates relied, aiii byy by it's own resources. Thus is it's solven- cy proven"
 MT. Untermeyer then brought out testimony showing that at the time of its suspension the Oriental had col lateral up with the clearing house for the value of it's capitalization and that at the time of it's troubles was pay ing 12 per cent dividends.

partment, today, when General Schuy-
Ter reported from Douglas, Ariz., the
withdrawal southwark of the Mexi-
can rebel bands, which had been
threatening Aqua Prieta, across the

directed toward Douglas, would have
been carried out to the letter accord

involved the sending of American
troops across the international bound-
airy.
