FACTORY IS BURNED Fire Does Much Damage on East Side, PART OF POWER PLANT OF HOTEL PORTLAND BEING OPERATED ON SEVENTH STREET PLANING MILL BADLY WRECKED Wicked Blue Early Yesterday Mera iag Destroys flC.OOO "Worth of Property Firemen Have Plenty of "Work. Fire broke out yesterday morning at an early hour In the pulley manufacturing establishment of W. M. Parellus on the southwest corner of East First and East Yamhill streets. It spread to the Enter prise planing mill alongside, owned by Peterson, Rosetlne & Jackson, and be fore the fire was extinguished 515,000 worth of damage resulted. It was due to the work of the firemen that the fire was confined, and did not spread to the big warehouses adjacent, causing damages to the amount of hun dreds of thousands of dollars. "When the alarm was eounded calling, the depart ment to the warehouse district, represen tatives of the big firms hurried to the scene with quaking hearts. For the first .time there was plenty of water, and for the first time a fire in this district was held in check and quickly extinguished without burning itself out. The wure- 'housemen openly expressed their satisfac tion and admiration for the firemen long end short, 3ight or heavyweights. The main building of the pulley fac tory stood about 75 feet from East First street, and was a two-story struc ture. On the east side was the boiler house and In the rear the dry kiln, while the office and store stood on the corner of East First and East Yamhill streets. An alarm was struck from box 214, and Chief Campbell soon sent in "a call for the big engine. ,As the buildings were flimsy and dry as tinder they burnea nice a uasn. Soon the entire range from the pulley factory to East First street was aflame. The Enterprise Planing Mill, which stood alongside the pulley factory, caught, but the firemen drenched it with water, and prevented the fire from extending to the Harris Ice Machine Factory on East "Water and East Yamhill streets. It was a. hot fight at this point, but it was soon won. The ice machinery factory was in operation and did not stop. For a time the Christenson Machinery company, south of the blazing buildings, was endangered, and while the heat was intense the roof caught fire, but was quickly extinguished. The Buffalo Pitts Company's big warehouse on the east side of East First street, was scorched with the heat but Chief Campbell kept a close watch that it did not catch fire. The ob ject of the Chief was to confine the flames and prevent their spreading to the Chrls tensen's machinery-house on the south or to the warehouses on the opposite side of East First street, and this was done. It was the first fire in this district on the East Side when the firemen had plenty of water. Three streams were laid in from the hydrant on the corner of East First and East Yamhill street. Engines 7 and 1 were stationed at the in tersectlon of Belmont and East First streets and engine No. 3 was placed at East Morrison street. This disposition gave enough streams to flood the burrfng buildings and effectually protect the sur roundings- Hose Companies Nos. 2 and 3, truck 4 and chemical 4 were also on dbty. From the pulley building to East First street all the structures were practically burned to their foundations, but the fire men guarded underneath so the fire did not creep under the elevated roadway in any direction. The building of the En terprlse Planing factory was left standing. but was badly wrecked. The losses -were mainly confined to the stock and machinery. M. W. Parellus, owner and manager of the pulley fac torj". arrived on the scene after the fire was over and he saw only the ruins of the prosperous plant, which he left intact the night before. Parellus said he valued his plant at $9009. He had recently put In some new machinery and had considerable stock on hand. The loss seems to be complete. Perhaps some of the machinery may be saved. Mr. Parellus carried $3500 insurance. The main two-story building was the property of the King estate, but the other buildings were the property of Mr Parellus. The Enterprise Planing Mill plant owned by Peterson, Hostlne & Jackson was valur d, stock and machln cry. at $5000. -Mr. Peterson said his firm carried only $1500. Their loss is mainly on the large stock. Many orders were on hand partly filled, the material being de stroyed. The building occupied by the mill is the property of Joseph Paquet. It was only partially destroyed, but being a box building was of no great value. At this fire It was shown that the new water main on East First street furnishes ah abundant supply, and its presence yester day morning prevented another far-reach Ing and disastrous fire in this district. The flro is supposed to have started In the dry kiln of the pulley factory. How- over, Mr. Parellus says that his foreman -was at the plant Saturday night at 10 o'clock. At that tlmo there was no fire about the plant. 'There is some indication that the fire might have been the work of an incendiary, but there were no develop ments in that direction, yesterday. TJ.

"William E. Ran dall, by a vote of 60 to 49. some time ago. All efforts of the conference of Portland Baptists to bring about a harmonious agreement have failed, and now it Is an nounced that all those who are standing by Mr. Randall, numbering about 75 of tho influential members, will ask for their letters this week.

Just what the effect will be if this wholesale withdrawal prevails, is prob lematical. Those who opposed Mr. Ran dall and his supporters say that if a new church be started it cannot hope to se cure recognition In Baptist official circles, and that It will bo an outcast, but this threat does not seem to worry the organ izers of the new church. Rev. Stanton C. Lapham. who "accepted a call to supply the pulpit for a time, was counsel before the conference for the majority in the controversy. He says, however, he was there to help to heal the trouble. In the morning Mr. Lapham preached on "The Known and Present Christ." He handled his subject from a practical point of view. In the evening he spoke on "Chlldllkeness In Conversion and Chris tian Character." Mr. Lapham has a flu ent and pleislng manner of address. He makes practical all the lessons he draws out of the text. He was pastor of Eman uel Baptist Church for three years, and has preached in most of the Baptist churches in Portland, and is not a stranger to the members of the Second Church. average of three 'to four points.

The Koelnlsch Zeltung re ports that the uncovered home demand for half-rolled goods for the June quarter amounts to from 0,000 to 120,000 tons.

Portland's temporary Postoffice, during the remodeling of the present building. will be in the San -Francisco Saving & Loan Society's buil'ding.'Jat Sixth and Burnsldo streets, now . occupied by the Pacific Coast Biscuit Company. C. T, Cramer, a superintendent of con struction for the Government, has been working on the sketch plans for the re modeling of the prospective Postoffice since Friday, and will mall them tomor row to the authorities in Washington for approval. Postmaster F. A. Bancroft and United States Marshal W. F. Mathews have made some vers valuable sugges tions during the planning and 'are well satisfied with the facilities that will bo had in the new building. Owing to the peculiar shape of the build ing It has been very difficult to arrange the different departments, ane aimen slons are: Forty-two feet on Ankeny street. 134 feet on Sixth street, 65 feet on Burnslde street and 120 feet length of back walL Mr. Cramer and the Postoffice otu dais, however, think that the building, according to the sketch plans, will answer the nurnose for the length of time it win be In use very well, and expect to recelvo the approval of the authorities Imme diately after the plans ore received at Washington. Owing to the present rate of Increase of business in the Postoffice It was desired to 5eure a building whose facilities would be at least 50 per cent greater than tho so of the present office. The new miuaing is in every way much better than the pres ent one, and while some departments will not be greatly improved, the service as a whole will be much better than at the present time. According to the sketch plans, the entire first floor will be used for the Postoffice. On the second floor will be the offices of Postmaster Bancroft, the assistant post master, cashier, railway mall clerks. Dis trict Attorney, and the money order de partment. The third floor will bo devoted to the United States Courtroom, the offices of the Judges of the District and Circuit courts. United States Marshal. District and Cir cuit Court clerks, prisoners' rooms and toilet. The District Attorney will also bo on the fourth floor. He will be provided with a public and a private office, as well as an office for his assistant. The court room will be two stories In height and will, therefore, take up a large part of the fourth as well as the third floor. A gallery will be constructed on the first floor for the purpose of storing supplies, while a small room will also occupy a part, as an office for the special deliver' boys. The heating and elevator apparatus will occupy the basement, also a "swlngroom" for the postoffice clerks. Along one side of the driveway that Is cut through un der the building a four-foot platform will be erected, thus making an 11 Instead of a 15-foot driveway. In case the plans are satisfactory to the department In Washington a contract for the building will be made at once, and the building will be vacated by the Pacific Coast Biscuit Company. This will con sume nearly two months' time, owing to the heavy machinery that must be moved. The Improvement of the present post office building will take all of two years, thus making It necessary to handle all the business Increase owing to the 1905 Fair through the temporary office. iMr. Cramer will leave for Salem today, where he is superintending the work on the new Salem Postoffice. Phllinnines. General Randall met General unsion in Portland. Saturday evening, and re turned to Vancouver the same night to see that the necessary preparations for receiving the new commander were car ried out perfectly. General Funston went over yesterday morning on the electric car, and was escorted to the headquarters at the east of the barracks. It was exactly 10 o'clock when General Randall led Generr.l Funston Into the main offices and suld simply: "Here Is the headquarters of the Department of the Columbia." That wa3 all there was to It, and the rest of the day was spent by the famous little fighter from. Kansas In looking over the barracks, and en- Joying the matchless Spring day that evidently happened along Just to show him that Oregon weather was not so bad after all. As the warm rays of the smiling sun beat down on the parade ground, and shimmered alike on the neat quarters and the waters of the mighty river that rfve3 the department Its namo, General Randall went from house to house bid ding friends farewell. For nearly two years Vancouver Barracks hatl been his home. and that he says he will come back to It In two years seems to be the most conclusive evidence that he likes the place. It was, therefore, with some slight display of feeling that he visited the homes he knew so well, and finally took the connecting ferry for Portland. A number of officers In uniform, and. General Funston himself, were at the slip to see the old warrior off to his new duty. On Inquiry, General Fuston said: "I am very much pleased with Vancouver. What I have seen has Impressed me very much. Ceremony at the change or com manders? Why, there was nothing doing at all. Simple as could be." Again the fact that General Randall was thinking of the change showed It self on the trip to Portland. As he stepped on the car, he was respectfully greeted by the motorman, and the salu tation was returned with thanks. The General sat for a few moments In silence as the car flew by the scenes that had become familiar during the past two years. "There, now," he said with emphasis, "see that fellow's orchard? He knows about trees. See how he's plowed up all that ground so the water can get to the roots. I tell you, too- many people expect Nature to do everything. They don't give her any help. Why, there are people up back of Vancouver complain-; Ing they can't get any prunes from their trees, and they think the trees ought to do It all. No, sir, they won't do It all. But that man knows his work. He al ways has a good crop, Just because he understands." Again there was a silence, and the General's eyes had a far-away look. "Have a cigar. Don't smoke?" Then with a chuckle: "We'll Just see If the old man wants it," and he slipped the cigar slyly Into the hand of the motor man, and was rewarded by a meaning glance. The General looked kindly to the man. and then changed quickly to the green things passing outside the car. "These big vestibules are great, aren't they? Why, when I came" this with an air of a man who had been In the coun try for years "they didn't have them. We had to stand up all the way over. Yes, there has been much done since I came here. Look at all this part of the city. It's Just wonderful how it's been been built up in the time I've been here. "I've known so many fine people in this place during my stay, that I don't want to go. But that's the way with the soldier. Makes friends in one place, and then has to move on to another place. Now I've been In the business"! a long time, and I'm just getting ready for the Philippines. But it's only for two years, and then I'm coming back. I won't say home, for we haven't any home, but I'm coming back to this climate." Then with another quiet chuckle, "I've got all my stuff In a warehouse over In the city, and It'll be already for me when I get back. Yes, in two years I II be retired and then I will be back to Portland, yes, I might say back home." recent meeting, decided to erect a com modious castle" hall at once.
