Club Proves Better
Weapon Than Knife

William Ward, age l6, with club
about seven feet long and Halford
Martin. age Is, with knife about ten
inches long and keen of blade, got into
an alteration yesterday afternoon
with the result that this morning Mar
tin was unable to appear before Judge

conflict, which began at Fred Schind-
ler's shop on Center street and pro-
ceeded south through an alley to Che
meketa street and out on Commercial
street and from there on into the po-
lice station.
Although Martin had the knife, it
was apparent that the boy with the
club had the advantage. They were
arrested by Officer De Long, who learn
ed from them that the quarrel started
over the purchase of knife in Sehind-
ler's shop. According to the story told,
Martin was buying knife when Ward

the allev to decide, with the above re-
suit.
udge Bushey continued the ease un-
til Martin is able to appear in court

fore and was out on parole. He was
charged with larceny and with raising
tally checks at. the Tom Kay Woolen
Mills. Mr.. Kay at that time refused

of coffee were all he could eat, and as
he pushed his chair away from the
table he ordered that O cab be sent
for and told the girl that for "a few
days he should be out Of town on
a business trip.
That evening he landed In. the lit
tie country town where he had first
met Ida and went to call upon his
mother-in-law.
With artful carlessness he ex~
plained that he had run out to look
Into some investments which he had
made In the neighborhood and had
dropped in for g greeting. 1t was
very evident that Mrs. Kilman knew
nothing, so the next train east car
ried him to the little mountain town
where sometimes they spent their va
cations. Ida was not at either OF
the hotels, and with growing sense
Of disappointment Vaughn took train
again.
In the weeks that followed be was
almost coaetantly on the trains. Each
place they had ever visited was gone
over, and he even made trip to New
York In the hope that she might have
gone there. There was one hotel at
which they always stopped, and when
the register lid not show her name
he went to other hotels where she
] might possible have gone.
He even had recourse to yelled
personal in the "agony column" and
waited a week for some response; but
| the effort bore no fruit, and at last
Vaughn decided to return TO Mrs,
Kilman and throw himself upon her
mercy. She must have had some
word from Ida In two weeks. Per-
haps she would tell him where she
was, even In the face OF Lida's pro.
hibition.
The Sunday trains did not stop al
the unimportant station, but by leav'
ing some ten miles down the road
II was possible to obtain ltbery rig
or, for that matter, to walk the dis

Commissioner Miller
Becomes Chairman

On account of the retirement of t.
K. Campbell from the public service
commission and the filling of the posi-
ton by Fred G.. Buchtel, recently
head of the department of weights
and measures, the commission was re-
organized yesterday and Commissioner
Miller became the chairman. Although
there was some reports that change
would be made in the secretaryship of
the commission, there was no action
taken by the commission and the mat
ter did not come up for discussion, al
though Commissioner Buehtel declared
that he would oppose the candidacy of
Ed Wright of La Grande, who opposed
H. II. Corey in the primaries in May.
No further action was taken by the
commission and the matter of a secre-
cary is 1still to come up for considera-
ton. Commissioner Corey stated he
could see no reason why Commissioner
Buchtel should oppose Wright as he
supported him in the primary cam
paign. Commissioner Buchtel is said
to base his opposition to Wright on
the ground that he has not the tech
nical training.

HOUSE WANTS TOKNOW
IF It IS NSULTED
Spends the Day Wrangling
Over LawsOn's Charge
Of Leakage

Washington, Jan. 3.-The fight in the
house over the proposed congressional
Investigation Of the leak to Wall street
fof advance information on the presi-
dents notes to belligerents took its
most sensational turn this afternoon.
Representative BenSett, New York,
named Bernard Baruch as one of those
through whom Wall street got its ad-
vance tip.
"The rumor is" Bennett declared
FROM the house floor, "that Bernard
Barueh, member of the council Of ma
tional defense, 30 minutes before the
peace note was made public, sold short
on rising market $4,000 shares of steel
cnnmon.
That congress will investigate the
laws ON leak charges seemed certain
following Bennett s declaration, when
Speaker Clark ended an acrimonious
verbal battle by ruling that the reso-
lnti0n of Representative Wood, of In
diana, demanding the investigation is
privileged and is therefore to be con-
sidered at this time.
Debate over the investigation pro-
duced the bitterest wrangle of the ses.
sion
At one point Representative Gardner,
Massachusetts, jumped to his feet.
"lf were member Of the rules com
mittee," he said, "I'd summon the
president of the United States before
il and ask it who was present when his
note was under consideration. ri d
subpoena every stenographer and clerk
who had access TO this confidential in
formation"
At another time, when Chairman
Henry announced Lawson had not given
him "a single fact nor single name, -
the republican side jeered and hooted,
while, Speaker Clark pounded his gavel
for order.
Five minutes after Wood made his
first motion the house was full of DO
tential defenders of its dignity and of
opponents who thought the house didn I
need any defense and should not have
any, anyway. Republicans demanded the
defense. Democrats--whose administra-
tion Lawson attacked-did not want it.
They claimed the house had not been
insnlted, because while Lawson charged
there would not be quorum in either
house or senate if there were an inves.
tigation, he did not specifically specify
what members would absent them
selves. %
| 1t took something more than an hour,
with an average of 10 members seeking
the floor at all times, for the house to
decide whether it had been insulted OF
not
Representative Gardner stated he
knew there was leak. He urged sub
Epoening President Wilson, among 9th
ers, to testify.
| Speaker Clark agreed to cali the reso
luton privileged, if Gardner would
write out his statement Gardner did
| Clark declared the resolution in or
der and on motion of Representative
Wood, it was referred to the rules com
mittee, with instructions to report fa
vorably or unfavorably to the house
within 10 days

Bulls Have Innings
and Stocks Advance

New York. Jan. s.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
says:
Today's stock market was of a high
" professional character, with strong
bullish sentiment unserlying it. Con-
Trajectory news developments with
respect TO the outlook for peace and in
connection also with our relations with
Mexico, served to make the public
cautious. That the clustering of the
Berlin press does not forecast the ac-
tion of the German imperial govern
ment on the allied reply to the recent
peace overtures, would seem to be in
dicated by the report from the German
capital that Ambassador Gerard had
sent a long communication to Wash
ington following an interview with
Bethmann Hollweg.
The feature of today's trading was
the demand for the steel group and
for the shares of these companies
which have property in Mexico. I'm
portant banking interests were credit
ed with aceumulating United States
Steel common. There was also good
demand for Laekawanna Steel, Re
public Iron and Steel, Sloss-Shefield,
on the big board and for Midvale on
the Broad Street curb.
The Washington governments report
ed efforts to avoid break with Gen
eral Carranza by the withdrawal of
Pershing's forces caused sharp ad-
vance in Mexican Petroleum and
American Smelling and Refining, the
former gaining six points and the lat
ter nearly three points.
As the afternoon session advanced
the market continued to gain in some
what brisker trading, United States
Steel touched ll4 and there were cor
responding gains elsewhere in the in
dustrial list.
