Two Important development projects nro provided for by two Oregon rullrondu In their plans for the reiiininln mouths of the present yeur one euch hy the O.-W. R. & N. and hy the South ern Pacific. The O.-W. H. & N. company will build a HO-tiillo extension to Its line re cently completed from Valo to River side, and the Southern Pacific will electrify the lino between Whlleson and Corvnllls as nn extension of the existing electric unit between Port land and Whlteson. J. 1). Farrell, president of the O.-W. H. & N., together with F. A. Plel. as sistant to the president; J. P. O'Miii'ii. vice-president and general niiinngor; J. R. Holmnn, chief engineer, and Frank W. Robinson, assistant traffic ninnnKer, left today for Vnlo, whence they will proceed over the newly com pleted line through Jimturit to Ri.cr Bldu. Thoy will travel from RlveroUlo over the route of the proposed lino In automobiles. The western terminus of the pro posed extension will be Crane Cieek Gap, neur the northern shore of Mai nour '.nke, In Harney county. Port land contractors have boon asked to submit estimates on the cost of this work, and several of them now are sending men Into the Interior to look over the ground. It is understood that Mr. Farrell and his pnrty will continue through Central Oregon and return to Portland via either Condon or Rend. The new lino now Is being operated from Vnle to Riverside, a distance of 80 miles. It connects with the Oregon Short Line at Ontnrla, but is a part of the O.-W. R. & N. system. It Is Intend ed eventually to extend the line across the state to a connection with the Rend. "This route then will offer the company a new main line between Portland and the east. somil message from Count von Hern Btorff, the German ambassador, was in reality Dr. Alfred Meyer, chief of the upply department of the German army, who had been secretly In the Pnlted States buying munitions of wnr. nre to be Investigated by tho state department. Simultaneously, another version of the 'story that Pr. Alfred Meyer, while not passing as Meyer-Gerhard, lins been In the country and Baile.l with the latter for Chrlstlnla. Incm;- nllo also w ill he looked Into. Officers of the department and mem bers of the diplomatic corps recalled that at tho presonal reipiest of Count Ilernstorff. ex Secretary Itryau asked the Hrltish and French ambassadors for a safe conduct for Ilr. Meyer-Ger- nnrii. JiiBscrand, the French ambassador, nt tho time impilred closely of Meyer Gcrhard's Identity and state depart ment officials recalled also that Sir Cecil Sprlns-Rlce. the llritlsh ambas sador, had suggested that there was evidence of other activity by Gerhard man Kod Cross work The upshot of It was, however, that tho state department, at the request of lounl Ilernstorff, gave a letter. "It was a letter," snld Secretary Lniisltig today, "that was given at tho request of tho Gorman ambassador, stating thnt Pr. Meyer-Gerhard, who hud been In this country as the repre sentative or tho German Red Cross, desired to return to Germany." No question, up to that time, nor until today, had arisen at the depart ment as to whether Meyer-Gerhard might renly be Meyer, or if Meyer was in the country secretly buying war supplks. One report, which referred to Dr. ai. bert Meyer as purchasing arms here. npolte of nn. attempt to buy obsolete United States army rifles, and said ex- Representative Metz had conferrejl with ex-Secretary liryan on the sub ject. Mr. Hryan said today he had no recollection of any such conversation with Met.. Secretary Garrison said he knew of no negotiations for the rifles. The department will look Into the question, not because It Involves any violation of international law, so far prisoners were taken." $00 1 i WASHINGTON. June 10. William Jennings liryan, in a statement to thp i American people tonight asks them to i r. imiiiKAii, June 1 1 f-emi-ofri- henr lilm In-fore thev oass sentence on his laying down the portfolio of secretary of state In the midst of in ternational stress. Confident that the public will credit him with honorable Intentions, Mr. liryan frankly says that good inten tions are not enough, and that if the cl.il reports today say th it the prepa rations have been made by the Rus sians to examine lmberg Ijtrge Austro-German forces nre ou the Dnel ster.

Rose Festival Is SeenByHundreds From Oregon City SPECIAL CARS ARE RUN TO AC COMMODATE CLACKAMAS COUNTY CROWDS. EXPOSITION GROPNPS. SN FRANCISCO, June II In comment. Inir on the great showing made by tho Willamette valley exhibits In the llat of awards made by the etposltlon Jtir- j lea, "Plir llnnley, the well known realdent of Oregon, who la a fair visi tor, paid a hlrh compliment to O. E. Preytag. of Oregon City, who Inat.-lled and is directing the valley exhibit for the Willamette Valley Epoaitlon aasoclatlon. While thp awarus speax a great deal for the products of our R."cat state," aald Mr. Hanley. "they speck errn more for those who had charge of placing them on exhibition. Such men as Mr. Preytag are worthy of all the pralsp the people of Oregon can bestow for they are not only showing the greatnp-s of our state to the world but thpy are Riving It a plape In history. It Is Rreat that the valley exhibits made silch a splendid showing In com petition with all the other magnificent and wonderful exhiblta here. The ae. compllshments are even more wonder ful when taken Into consideration thnt so many little details had to be ob served In collecting and arranging the exhibits." That Mr. Freytag has made a great success of his work here Is without a doubt. Pecause of the unique arrange ment and the thoroughness of the dls- J plays, the valley exhibits have attract ed more attention than any of the other exhibits. Hundreds of Oregon people who have visited the exhlbl'. have pral.crl and marvelled at thn cleverness with which they are put up. That they are attracting the profound Interest of Californians and easterners is indicated by the number visiting them and the Interest shown by the visitors. Mr. Freytag is more than gratified w ith the awards. They were Issued by a thoroughly competent Jury, -which thoroughly judged every agricultural exhibit here before marking the final awards. Mr. Freytag Is particularly pleased with the award of the grand prize for forage crops grown In the Oregon City joined with Portland Friday, the last day of the annual fes tival, in paying homage to the rose. Hundreds from Oregon City and thou sands from Clackamas county turned out to aid in making the 1915 Rose Festival the greatest in the history of the big Portland show. Special cars on the Portland Rail way Light & Power company and the Southern Pacific were required to ac commodate the throngs that flocked to the Rose City. Friday night, the power company was almost unable to handle the crowds and ali the late cars were delayed. Many did not reach their homes until early Saturday morning. Put Oregon' City's part In the Port land festival was not entirely unoffi cial.
