Gettysburg, July 3.-About a third

that southern born president has
visited a battlefield. His reception

One hundred confederate veterans,
survivors of Pickett's brigade. gath
cred at this afternoon on the En-
mettsburg road about a quarter of
miles from the stone wall about which
so years to the hour, the fiercest con-
flict in modern warfare was waged.
Behind stone wall were 100 surviv-
ors of the Pennsylvania division of
the Grand Army who stopped Pick
ett's charge. Each group carried tat
tered battleflags, borne so years ago.
At the sharp command the confeder-
ates advanced in double quick time.
They met the union soldiers at the
stone wall and stopped and shook
hands. The veterans have inaugural
ed plans for a national monument to
be erected at this spot.

LATE RAINS HELP
CROPS SOWED LATE

Though the unreasonable rains are
making the reservation farmers look
down their noses and threaten to mar
the Fourth of July celebration, there
are a number of farmers in the Pilot
Rock section of the county who are
rejoicing at the wetness according to
j. p. McManus veteran journalist of
that town who spent last night in the
city. Even in that section, he says,
the rains have spoiled a good deal of
alfalfa. but this damage is more than
balanced by the benefit to the wheat
crops of quite a number of ranchers.
Because of the wet spring, many
of the farmers did not get their crops
in until late he said. 'In fact,
know of several who did not SOW
their grain until the latter part of
May and then they did it largely on
a gamble. They took a chance on Sc
curing late rains and now that they
are coming the belated crops will de-
rive much benefit

Matter Will Be Referred to New York
Prosecutor-Mulhall Charges VIII

May BE Retained as Special Counsel
I'm Matter.

Washington, July 3.-Twenty thou
sand letters, kilograms and other re-
ports will have to be waded through
by the lobby probers in connection
with the lobby charges of Mulhall.
Mulhalrs latest revelations refer to
the alleged activity of officials of the
Manufacturers association in the
campaign of former Representative
James Watson for the governorship
OF Indiana In 1908
Members of the senate committee
admit they cannot punish Lamar for
his impersonations of public men but
propose to ask the New York prose-
cutor to act.
Members of the house rules COM
mittee began drafting a sweeping res
olution for a separate probe of Null
halls charges. 1t probably will be
adopted Saturday and the inquiry will
start on Tuesday.
Henry b. Martin, secretary of the
National Antitrust league. told the
lobby investigating committee today
that he and David Lamar, who tes-
titled yesterday. were the authors of
the original resolution authorizing the
Stanley steel trust probe. declaring
Lamar's draft was passed "substanti-
ally as drawn" Martin characterized
lamar as a public spirited citizen and
bitter foe of the railroad trust.
The suggestion is being made that
Samuel Untemeyer will be employed
as special counsel to assist the house
in the Mulhall probe. They probab-
" will ask the senate to concur in a
10000 appropriation to provide
funds for the house probe
Martin declined to name the men,
bers of the National Antitrust
league. asserting the business life of
its members would I've threatened by
the trust If 1t became known they
We're members of the league. He as
serted the powers would destroy and
blacklist them and cut off their
bank credits" He detailed instances
ces where such threats were fulfilled.

CITY MAY HAVE

PerpIexing Question Confronts Tax

versed Decision in Johns Case.
NO LAW TO EXEMPT CITY
Mistake in Describing Assessment
District, May Mean Warren Con-
struction Company Can Hold the
City Irresponsible for Cost OF Inn
prOvement-WOuldM Mean 2 Mill TaA

VIII the taxpayers of Pendleton as
a whole be required to pay for the
pavement on Jackson street as a re-
suit of the opinion of the supreme
court in the case of Johns VS.. the City
OF Pendleton? This is a question con-
fronting the property owners of the
city and as yet it is without an ans
wer, for the lawyers are all perpleXed
and none will hazard a positive opin-
ion.
The supreme court decision, which
is for the plaintiff. is based upon the
fact that an error was made in de-
sCribing the assessment district which
invalidates the whole proceedings. In
this event, the Warren Construction
company can probably hold the city
responsible for the cost of the i'm
provement for, though there is a
clause in the company's contract with
the city which seemingly exempts the
city from any responsibility, local at
tCrneys have expressed themselves
to the effect that there is no law that
own mistakes.
This being so, the city would doubt
less be held for the payment of the
assessments originally made against
the property of Mr. Johns andF3ne
four or five others who have opposed
payment, for the error which caused
the reversal of the lower court de-
cision was made by the city engi-
neer. The plaintiff lost out in all of
hic nthnr nnntnntinnc that praptin-
ally the Warren Construction Co.
stands exonerated of the charges made
against it.
Assuming that the city can be held
for the payment of the Johns ct al as
sessments, the question arises as to
what will be the attitude of those
other property owners who have al
ready made part payment for the inn
provement. Though in accepting the
privileges of the ten-year bond issue
they signed waiver to any rights
they may hold through irregularities
discovered, it is a question for the
courts whether or not they can be
held for payment when all of the
proceedings have been declared void
Several have already declared they
would resist further payments should
the city be forced to assume the as
sessments made against the property
of Johns ct al. If they can not be
forced to make further payments
then every taxpayer in the city will
have to pay his share, for the bonds
have already been sold and are now
an obligation of the city.
