White, former United States minister at St. Petersburg, and more recently United States ambassador at Berlin, and who returned from Germany only last week, says that Emperor William and President Roosevelt have many points of resemblance. He says: "The kaiser is as much like Presi dent Roosevelt as a German could be, and the president is as much like Em peror William as an American could be.

ROYAL DIAMOND WEDDING A RARE EVENT Is Being Celebrated in London Today —The Duke and Duchess of Mecklenburg. London, June 27.—1t is a thing as delightful as it is rare to see an eld erly couple celebrating their diamond wedding, and perhaps the sight is even a goodlier one when both of the two venerable people happen to be royalties. There is to be a royal dia mond anniversary celebration in Eu rope tomorrow, and on in which the royal families of both Great Britain and Germany are much interested. It is that of the Grand Duke and Duchess Mecklenburg-Strelitz, who were mar ried in this city sixty years ago this summer. At the time of his mar riage the grand duke had not yet suc ceeded to his duchy, which is one of the smaller German states. His birde was the English Princess Augusta, daughter of the last Duke of Cam bridge but one. and own cousin of Queen Victoria. Now the is the eld est woman of the English royal fam ily. The years have treated her more kindly than they have her husband, for the Grand Duke has been blind for some time. Always renowned for his high spirits, however, not even this affliction has been able to make him morose. The royal couple were married at the chapel of Buckingham palace, in the presence of Queen Victoria, the late prince consort, the Duke of Cum berland and other members of the British royal family. During their earlier wedded life the grand duke used to he in London a great deal, when he and tiie grand duchess lived at St. Janus palace in apartments set apart by Queen Victoria especially tor their use. At present the grand duchess has a small house of her own near Buckingham palace. She is frequently in the metropolis and is one of the most picturesque figures in British society —as full of spirits and energy as ever in spite of her 81 years: a guest at nearly all the big parties and receptions and an indefa tigable patroness of tiie theater. The grand duke has many American friends, as he is accustomed to make a prolonged stay each year at Hom burg, where he mixes freely in socie ty. The grand ducal couple have but one son, the hereditary Grand Duke George Adolphs. He married a prin cess of Anhalt. and one of his daughters was united to Lanilo. hered itary prince of .Montenegro thus be coming a sister-in-law of the present Queen of Italy. Another daughter. Duchess Marie, married Count George de Jamstal. the son of an extremely wealthy French patent medicine man ufacturer. FACHON i I DEFAULT. Fails to Answer in Action for Dam ages by Blanche Mascleg. The complaint of Blanche Mascleg against Alexander Faohon. asking $15,000 damages for breach of prom ise, was filed yesterday by the girl's attorney. Wilson R. Cray, the paper having been served June 4. and no answer made, says the Post-Intelli gencer. The case will be tried before a jury. Blanche Mascleg is the French girl who claims that Faclion prevailed on tier to travel with him from Paris to the United States as his wife, by promising to marry her on their ar- rival in this country, which promise, she alleges, he failed to keep. Faction is now in the county jail as a federal prisoner, on the charge of importing a woman for immoral purposes. It is stated that he has much property in Walla Walla county. A CONUNDRUM. The state board of control, which has just returned to Olympia from a visitation of state institutions, reports the increase of convicts at the state penitentiary beyond any previous rec ord in the state. There are now (173 prisoners at Walla Walla, an increase or 7u since the first of April. This is the largest number on record in the state and the most rapid increase ever recorded. There wili lie an increase of at least 44 before the first of August, and pos sibly more, while only 33 will be dis charged during that time, thus assur ing the state of a net increase of 11 in the next month. The board of con trol in its report to the last legisla ture estimated the needs of the insti tution on a basis of 075. It will be seen that number will be exceeded be. fore the close of the first six months of the biennial period. The hoard does not attempt to ac count for this unprecedented condi tion. They say it may possibly be that the prosecuting attorneys are fitting more vigilant, or what is nioiv likely with the increase of the staters population, its criminals are also increasing. Five years ago there were less than 300 prisoners in the state penitentiary and four years ago there were less than 4*to there. A Guaranteed Cure for Piles. Itching Blind.

WILL CELEBRATE. Unions of This City Will Fittingly Observe Labor Day. At iast night's regular meeting of the Trades and Labor Council many suggestions were made and discussed regarding the celebration of Labor Day. The committee on location, re ported that they had secured the Ab bott grove, now leased by W. A. Hunt, as a central meeting place where (he speaking and sports of the day will take place. Abbotts grove is sit uated just south of Maple street and between Second and Third. It can be easily reached on each side by teams and on South Second the side walk runs to the very entrance of the grove. Garrison creek runs along the southern border and its banks are fringed with many shade trees. The Singleton property adjoining, and also bordering the stream has been secured for the day. The own ers kindly donating the latter free of charge. The grove itself will ac comodate about 750 to 900 people and the open field may be used for a base ball game between the Fats and Slims or the "Capitaii'sts" and "Hard-Ups." On these grounds the oratory of the day will take place. Prominent labor leaders have been invited and among the number signifying their acceptance is Labor Commissioner William Blackman. In the early hours of the afternoon what promises to be one of the largest and most in teresting parades in years will be seen in the city streets ending finally at the gates of the grove. Many of the business houses have signified their willingness to participate in the parade by floats while each union in the city will put its best efforts into a striking display that will tend to amuse, instruct and interest the on lookers. Pendleton unions have invited to visit Walla Walla and join with local unions in tiie grand turn out. It is expected that city will be well represented. A committee on parade consisting of Pres. George Hippie, of the Cigar makers union Thomas E. .Mason and Julius Baldwin of the Typographical union, were appointed at this council meeting. This committee will have charge of the exercises of the day and will be assisted by various sub com mittees. A committee on program and sports consisting of Vice-presi dent F, J. Heister of the Cigarmakeis Dave Stokes of the Clerks and Fred Ramshat k of the Painters' Unions were also appointed. This committee will outline the sports, entertainment and other features of the exercise- While it may seem rather early for the Council to get this work afoot, it is absolutely necessary owing to the fact that time must be given each affiliated union to make arrangement-' regarding its display on tiiat day. Tht» expenses pertaining to floats an.', music and incidentals will foot up to a very large gfiure. hence a great deal cf care is necessary to keep within the means at hand. After the exercises of the day Ar mory hall will be the center of at traction. A grand ha!! will be held there by the Trades Council and a most enjoyable time will be given all who may attend. CENTRAUZATION OF CAPITAL. Theme of a Discourse by State Or- ganizer Vanderhoof. One of the attractive features of last night's Trad.' Council meeting was the address of the visiting brother F. I*. Vanderhoof of What com. Wash., state organizer for the Washington State Federation of La bor and general organizer for this Siate and British Columbia for the American Federation of Labor. Mr. Vanderhoof has b East Main street at the hour of seven-thirty. This meeting will be called to order by General Organizer Vanderhoof and plans looking toward the securing of a charter will be at once projected. Every tailor in the city has been notified and if it should hap pen that any person, not at present at work, should have been overlooked, he is hereby urgently invited to be at tonight's meeting.

DEN IKS ONE CHARGE Mayor Hunt informed the editor of the Statesman this morning that it is not true that his foundry is now mak ing an elaborate cornice for the high school building. "That is the silliest lie that was ever published." he add ed. The Statesman is always pleased to correct any erroneous statement that appears in its columns. It willing to accept Mayor Hunt's word for it that no cornice for the high school budding is being made at his foundry or anywhere else. However. Mr. Hunt did not deny Hiat his foundry sold nearly one-thou sand dollars worth of material used in the repair of the Paine school, that it supplied $500 worth of iron bands for the Worley flume that it is to fur nish all the iron used in the con struction of the new school building nor any oilier charge made by the Statesman against his record as may or or school director. If the mayor has any such denial to the Statesman will be pleas ed to give it space, ami. furthermore, if he will prove that the Statesman has not told the truth in any particu lar we will frankly admit the mistake. Many voters would be pleased to see Mayor Hunt take advantage of this invitation from the Statesman. A SOUND LEGAL PROPOSITION The Statesman submits as a sound legal proposition that the Gilbert Hunt Company was primarily liable for the infringement of th" Allen pat ent connection used in the construc tion of tiie Worley flume on East Alder street. The device was manufactured by Mayor limit's foundry and used in the face of a warning given the water committee by Mr. Allen on his visit to this city. The infringement of the Allen patent by Mr. Hunt's company cost the city over ?7"". Of this amount It'iiT. was paid in settlement of the suit and 37". was paid Attorney W. H. Upton for his services in as sisting the city attorney Besides i is known that the city attorney made a trip to Olympia during the sena torial contest to have the mayor sign some papers relating to the settlement of the suit, ami no doubt the expenses of this trip were also charged up to the watl> UOVS 6.

MILES DEFENDS His Report on Army in the Philippines mil OFFHIRX 10 BLAME For Any Acts of Cruelty That Were Practiced on the Natives. H adquarters ol the Army. Washington, I). C. To the Editor —Pear Sir: Referring lo my reports as presented it; your i's •-uo of May 2, you will understand how ane might seriously and rightly ob jeet to having a communication pub lished in part with some vital portions omitted. When that is done. ,t is im possible to appreciate the relative bearing of certain portions, and tiie writer is liable to be misrepresented and the reade rto be misled. In youi journal no reference was made t.> my order of November 28. 1902, which formed a part of my report. It is proper to say that I went to the Philippine islands, not as a "tour ist." but in an official capacity. Par araph 2'>:> of Army Regulations reads is follows: "'The military establishment is un &BT the orders of the commanding g aeral of the army in that which per ixtiiis to its discipline and military control Moreover, the instructions address ed to me as lieutenant general "com manding th,- army" came from the high- st authority, viz.. the president, in which I was directed to give es pecial attention to the "instruction, discipline and supplies of the army." En route I visited several military stations in this country, and inspected the entire Pacific coast defenses, in cluding very gun. mortar, magazine and garrison. 1 went very thoroughly over the Philippine islands, visiting all the principal garrisons, seeing nearly all the troops, complimenting them in person and in my official report. The idea that I was governed by prejudice in any way is as idle as it is untrue. However, certain facts (tune to my knowledge from officers of ranis and experience, as well as from prominent citizens, relating to offenses that I had never heard of he fore; and found an impression ex tain acts that have been prohibited in our army, and in every other civi lized army, were justifiable, ami the ideas of "not guilty" to offenses that had been committed were sustained on the ground that they were com mitted under instructions or in ac bal orders. I duty to rescind any orders that might convey such dangerous and erroneous impressions, and directed that the or der above referred to he issued. It read as follows: Headquarters of the Army -Manila. P. Nov. 28, 1902. The Cammanding General, Division of the Philippines, Manila. P. manning the army directs me to inform you that his attention having been "ailed to matters concerning "the in struction and discipline of the troops." it has come to his knowledge thai certain methods have been used to ex tort information from Filipinos in the custody 0 f the military, and that other acts hav«> been committed which are not in accordance with the rules of civilized warfare, and are detrimental to the honor and discipline of the ar my. The misconstruing and adroit misinterpretation of orders may be as injurious to the service as a "wanton disregard of them. The evil methods above referred to are. more injurious to the service, whether designedly a r inadvertently followed, and the practice of such un authorized and unwarranted acts tends to give the junior officers and soldiers of the army an impression that such acts are justinable and cus tomary in civilized warfare. In order to correct such a dangerous and inju rious impression, and that there may be no misunderstanding in the future, the lieutenant general directs that any orders, circulars or personal instruc tions, or any parts thereof, from what ever source, that suggest, inspire, en courage or permit any acts of cruel ty and unwarranted severity be an nulled, canceled and rescinded, and such acts are hereby strictly prohibit ed. Acts of retaliation can only be authorized by the highest military authorities, and then should only be THE EVENING STATESMAN, SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1903. resorted to as measures for the safety of an army. The attention of your entire com mand is directed to paragraph 16, gen. oral orders No. 100, war department. O. G. April 24. Ist;:',, which will be strictly complied with. The excuse that the unusual condi tions justify the measures herein con demned is without foundation and can not prevail. The lieutenant general is gratified to know that a very great many officers of the army, including yourself, of high rank, great experi ence and most commendable records, a.- well as those occupying subordinate positions, with their commands, have in the prosecution of hostilities in the Philippines effectively conducted their military operations without resorting to any of the methods prohibited by tamed the best results, thereby re flecting the highest credit and honor upon themselves, their commands, the army and the nation. It is the duty of the army to pre serve unsullied the high character it has maintained for more than a cen tury, and ii is gratifying 10 know that have'upheld thai standard under all MARION P. MAIS. Lieutenant Colonel, Aide de Camp. It will be abserved that no names were mentioned, but subsequent cor respondence required a special re port, which was accordingly made. The object of the order was not only to rescind any' injurious orders that might have been issued, either verbal or written, but to prevent the possibility of the commission of any stub offenses in the future. You will also observe that the order does not criticise or condemn the acts of a single American soldier. During my eight years that I have occupied my present position I have issued but few orders of a general character, and those had for their ob ject the general welfare of the army. No one can have a more sacred re gard for it's honor than myself. The officers of the law who arrest ed, tided, convicted and executed a theretofore honored member of the faculty of Harvard college, who had committed a great crime, were not called the enemies of Harvard, nor was the honor of that institution in volved or "smirched" by the punish ment of an unworthy professor. The authorities who persecuted and con demned Tweed and his associates were not accounted the enemies of New York .or as those who "smirched its honor." The postoffice officials who are now investigating alleged offen- ses are not enemies of the adminis tration or of tli-' department. In the greatest and bloodiest of all wars, covering four years, and in which were engaged 3,000,000 of brave men. I never heard of a single case Of human torture. and those who falsely assert that it was practiced in sult alike those who wore the blue and the gray. For leu y. ais the army has been waging w;ir against savage Indians and there is no namable atrocity that at some time some Indians did not commit —but retaliation in kind and violence towards captive and surrend ered Indians have always been pro hibited. It is idle to assume that campaign ing in tiie Philippines has conditions that warrant resort to medieval cruel ty ami a departure fro mthe honor able method of conducting warfare, and that such departures as have ex isted should be overlooked aud con doned. la is most gratifying that the serious offenses have not been committed by the soldiers unless they were under the direct orders of certain officers who were responsible. Soldiers have withheld fire when ordered to shoot prisoners, protested against acts of cruelty, and written to relatives at bome*urging them to take action to put a stop to those crimes. It will vet- be mi" of the glories of the army that such deeds, committed by what ever authority, are abhorrent to the American soldier. The officers who an- responsible, using chiefly cruel Maccabebes, do not by any means constitute the American army, and there must be a very unmistakable line drawn between the great body of honorable and faithful officers and brave soldiers whose faithful officers and brave soldiers whose records have been commendable and those, of what ever station, whose acts have received and should receive the earnest con demnation of all honorable men.

Ten Birds a Day Limited tc Sports men in Eastern Washington This Season. The sportsm »n of the state of Washington will find many changes in the game laws of this state as amended by the last legislature. As tar as the protection of game fish is concerned, the laws remain practic ally as they were before, but hardly a feature of the measures for the pro tection of game birds and animals is as heretofore.? Undoubtedly the laws have been framed for rigid protection of every species, but it will require a close watch on the part of the coun ty game wardens to make them ef fective, in the provision limiting the number of birds and ani mals to be killed by each hunter. A new feature of the new iaw is the introduction of provisos which practically change the laws to con form to certain localities in the state where the general statute would not offer the needed prot iCtion. For this reason the laws for Eastern and West era Washington in many instances are widely different. A feature which may arouse some opposition in cer tain parts of the state is the absolute protection for all imported pheasants. In the Ciiehalis valley, and especially in the vicinity of Chehalis and Cen tralia. Chinese pheasants are the most plentiful of game birds. However, their protection there will insure their propagation in other parts of the state as well. Hunter's License Required. The last legislature again placed on tiie statute books the measure compelling hunters to take out a lic ense. The law was formerly declared unconstitutional, because it contained a clause exempting from its provis ions th.' small lioy. The new law has remedied this effect, and the lad with the "22 rifle'" if he hunts, must pay th.- annual license, which is fixed at $1. Tiie money derived from thes.> licenses goes into The county game protection funds and helps to pay the salaries of the game wardens. The county auditors issue the licenses. Hunting without a license is punish able by a fine of from $1" to $100, im prisonment in the county jail from five to thirty days, or both fine ami imprisonment. Digest of Laws.

What did Alan say?" (To Be Continued.) HIS VICTIMS ARE MANY. Seat tl.-. —The police have learned of a smooth swindling game that has been practiced hy one Colpitts in which his victims perhaps will num ber about lift., from each of whom he secui d sums ranging from $2 to $10. His grai'i was the old picture-en larging game that has been worked -o often and so successfully. He came acre about a month ago. He said his name was Colpitis. He didn't tell where he came from or anything about his business associations but claimed to have the only proper and economical way of enlarging pictures He opened an office at 614% Second avenue and started out in business. He canvassed the city himself. Here is his game: He approached a victim and asked to enlarge a picture of some dear t ela, the or a friend. He had a sample of expensive frames, and showed how tiie picture would look. His price for die work amounted all the way from $7> io $15 on which he required a de posit of from $2 to $10 as an act of good faith. Each order specified that the purchaser was to call at 2021 Sec ond Avenue just thirty days after the order was signed and then the enlarg d picture wouul be turned over to them on payment of the balance agreed upon. But Mr. Colpitts did not make the pictures. He simply pocketed the money and when the time for deliver ing the pictures approached, he pack ed his baggage, (dosed his office and walked out of town with several hun dred dollars to tiie good and a great laugh on his easy victims. The first knowledge of the swindle came to light this morning when Col pitt's victims began calling at 2021 Second avenue for their pictures. This number is the home of J. E. Stanley, proprietor of Ye Old Curiosi ty Shop at the foot of Madison street. More than twenty-five persons called •it Mr. Stanley's home before noon to la v and asked for their pictures. Mrs. Stanley could not account for the Hidden onslaught of people aud she •ailed up her husband. He started an nvesication, and soon learned that ,-olpi.ts had used Mr. Stanleys ad dress simply to throw off his victims. Mr Stank--- went to ColpUt's office ami found it closed. On the door was a notice asking the customers to call it 2021 Second avenue. Mr Stanley at once reported the case to the police and now the officers are trying to find Colpitts. There is but little chance of their doing so for without a doubt, he is now out ot the state and probably on his way to some other field that will be as easy picking as Bear- the SV'lve Ai A3jS Boi'Cfll THE EVENING STATESMAN, SATURDAY.

THE EVENING STATESMAN, SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1903. IN PATH OF STORM Charles McEvoy Visited Devastated Heppner BRINGING ORDER OUT Of CHAOS Will Take Six Months to Clear Up Wreckage —People Do Not Yet Realize Their Loss. Diaries McEvoy, a retired farmer residing in Pleasant street who left j for Heppner in the week, returned last; night after spending two and a half] days in the devastated town. .Money and provisions, he says, continues to pour into the relief committee, and order is somewhat restored out of chaos. fVhile there Mr. McEvoy visited the path of the storm several miles above Heppner and clearly de-scribes how such a storm would generate the flood of water that swepi over the town. Several canyons lead into Balm creek, which enapth s into Willow creek three quarters of a mile above Heppner and it was down this stivam that the built of the water came. Earmers living on Balm creek, he says, told him that every lit tie canyon spouted floods of water into Balm creek at about the same instant, showing that the storm covered an area of several miles square and was as severe in one spot as another. Balm creek became so congested with water that the force of the flood as i t rushed into Willow creeek raaj; still i»' seen on the side hill 50 feet above the bed of the scream. The hill served only to turn the flood swiftly down Willow creek onto the unsus pecting town. Several farmers ami their families residing on Balm creek had narrow escapes for their lives, in most instances losing much of their pi opei ty. In the matter cf clearing up ttic wreckage and debris strewn up and town the valley from Heppner to [one, Mr. McEvoy said it will take months to complete the work. Sev eral hundred- men from other towns are making slow progress owing to the packed nature of the debris. The sun has dried the mud and the whole is a solid mass, in many instances making it necessary to remove drifts almost by piece meal. Bodies are being recovered slowly.
