"A. B. C." MEDIATORS
DOWN TO BUSINESS
Have Begun To Discrsss Plans for
Pacification of Mexico Negotiations
Will Be Continued in Toronto
By Fred 8. Ferguson.

Niagara Falls, Ont, May 26.-The
ga. B. c." mediation conference got
down to actual business today.
ut is agreed" said Justice Lamar,
on of the two American ENJOYS "that
/ may say we have begun to discuss de-
tails of pacification plan for Mexico.
''On number of these details we
find ourselves in substantial accord.
Others are still being considered.
cit would be improper for me to
speak concerning the points under dis.
cussion--either those ON which we are
agreed or those which are to receive
further consideration.
This was the first direct information
yet given out concerning the mediation
conferences progress. Justice Lamar
made his statement following a two
hours conversation between himself, his
fellow envoy, Frederick Lehman, and
the IA. B. c." mediators.
Lamar and Lehman enlarged from
this conference smiling and obviously
pleased.
Tomorrow the mediators, envoys and
their suites will go to Toronto, where
they will be the guests of Lieutenant
Governor of Ontario, Sir John Gibson
They will continue their negotiations

0REGONIAN FIGURES
GIVE M'NARY LEAD
Unless There Is Error Probability Is
That Salem Jurist Has Won Place
On the Oregon Supreme Bench.

The contest between McNary and
Benson for the supreme justiceship took
another turn yesterday, and according
to the OregOnian this morning, McNary
has lead of 23. The Orergonian says
the figures are reliable, but there is
no way of verifying them here as the
official returns are not all IN. The
Oregonian claims though, that it has
the Official returns from all the coun-
ties but Clackamas and Yamhill, and of
these it has the full unofficial returns.
The nomination is not certain but it
looks as though it would be McNary.
The Official returns of Multnomah
county gave MeNary gain of 154 and
Benson gain of 19, or net gain foi
McNary of 1876 votes. The officia
count in Lane gave McNary a gain OF
six, but it also gave Benson loss OF
SO or total gain for McNary over
Benson of 70.
Unless there has been an error in
Transmission it seems probable that
,McNary has won. The secretary OF
state has the returns all tabulated anC
kept up to the minute and so soon as
the five missing counties of Multi
nomah, Clackamas, Washington, Yam
hill and Lane are heard from the of
ficial vote will be learned in a very
few minutes. The law requires tha
the secretary of state shall canvass thu
votes in the presence of the governor
who then issues his proclamation an
nouncing the results OF the election.

SITUATION IN ULSTER
TENSE But QUIET

Belfast, May 26.-The Ulster situa-
tion was tense though quiet today.
The passage of the Irish home rule
bill of course lacked the element of
surprise and since the law is not yet
effective there was no occasion for an
immediate outbreak. Orangemen were
still resolute, however, IN their declar-
alton that they would never submit to
an Irish parliament rule.
Moreover, there were threats of a
clash any moment between Catholics
and Protestants. The former were ju-
bilant; the latter gloomy, and in an
angry mood.
Constables from Dublin were polic--
ing Belfast. A strong force of armed
police was also watching today's coun-
ty council elections in County Tyrone.
If the 0-fngemen we're defeated, there
it was feared there would be an imme-
diate outbreak of rioting.

An Amendment to the Clayton Anti
Trust Bill Is Asked by Rrepre-
sentatives Carl and Flood.
WOULD NOT ALLOW CHANGE
MAKING UNIONS IMMUNE
Wilson Was Not Impressed With the
Representations Of Senator Hughes
Asking for a Compromise.
By John Edwin Nevin.

Washington, May 25.-Widening of
the breach between organized labor and
President Wilson seemed certain today.
The situation loomed up as strong
probability here this afternoon when
Representative Webb of North Caro-
lima, acting chairman of the house ju-
dietary committee, and Representatives
Carlin and Flood of the subcommittee,
in charge of the antitrust bills, called
at the White House and told the pres
ident that organized labor would insist
on an amendment to the Clayton bill.
By this action, organized labor 3 de-
mand for complete exemption from the
terms of the Sherman law was put di-
reetly to President Wilson. Webb and
the members of the subcommittee got
an immediate answer.
President Wilson made it perfectly
clear that he would not permit any
change in the Clayton bill which would
"erect stone wall" around labor
unions, making them immune from pen
alties for illegal actions, He declared
that house laborites had accepted the
Clayton bill with the provision that
nothing would be included in the mea.
sure which could be construed as af.
fecting the legality of unions.
The president said this was as far as
he was willing to go.
Senator Hughes asked President Will
son and the house Judiciary committee
to get together in some sort of com
promise which would prevent employ
ers associations from manipulating an
thrust laws to organized labor. The
president insisted that the Clayton bill
does not go far enough, saying organic
ed labor had been promised consider
alton in the last two democratic ma
tional conventions.
President Wilson, however, did no
seem to be impressed with the repre-
sentations voiced by Hughes.

WIFE'S AFFECTIONS
WERE NOT ALIENATED
Jury Finds for Defendant in Lang
Madison Case-Verdict Rendered
This Morning

The jury in the case of G. T. Lang,
who sued D. A. Madison for $4,000
for alineation of his wife's affections
returned verdict for the defendant
this morning at lO:30 and Lang will
receive not single dollar from the
former Salem liquor dealer.
Lang alleged improper relations be-
tween his former wife, now Mrs. John
son, and Mr.. Madison, but the testi.
mony of the defendants and Mrs. John
son in denial evidently had more
weight with the iurymen, who reached
their verdict after about an hours de-
liberation. The jury who heard the
case was made up of the following
citizens: J. NJ. Gentry, foreman, B,
F. Ramp, Louis Diekman, f. f. Beings,
G. NJ. Voris, Hal D. Patton, C.. J. Nor

Tne supreme court this morning
handed down Is opinions. One of these
was the case of the state OF oregon
against Jesse s. Barton, In which the
opinion was written by Chief Justice
Mcbride, which was reversed and re-
manded for new trial. 1t was an ap-
peal from Coos county, and the defend
anr vas q member Of the legislature
from that county last winter.
Barton had been indicted by the
grand jury for assault to commit rape,
II seems that attention of the grand
iury had been called especially to his
case in communication signed BY lfO
citizens of Marshfield, and the defense
asked for instructions to the jury that
preiudico and rumor SHOULD not sway
them. but they must decide the case
ON its merits, and that the plaintift
must prove beyond reasonable doubt
that the defendant Was guilty. This
\ instruction was refused.
Another point raised by the defense
and pussed upon by the court was the
lipsistence of the district attorney in
stating in the presence Of the jury what
he expected to prove by the witnesses
aud his repeated violation of the orders
Of the court in trying to prevent these
statements. Ali Of which is held error
and in violation of the defendant Z
rights. The district attorney in this
case was George M. Brown, present
candidate for attorney general.
The other cases were as follows:
