THE MORNING OREGOiNIAjN, FJKJLDAY. UUTUUiSK 115, 1903. NOT TO GAY PARIS Senator Mitchell Will Go to National Capital Instead. SENATOR FULTOH IN NEW YORK Doth Will Be in "WaahlHgrton Until After the Primaries and Elcfitlon Menftrs. Simon and Bourne Are Active, Opposition Passive. Senator 3Iitchell -Rill not hie away to Paris. He has changed his mind and eft 100ns will betake himself to the National :apital. Senator Fulton will Join his col league at New York and the twain will jet out for Washington, together. If the :rain on which Senator Fulton departed tast week wa3 not wrecked the Clatsop sentleman's voice is probably reverberat ing somewhere in New York at this very minute. When the senior Senator arrived at Kew York he learned that his wife, who Is at Paris, and his daughter, who Is at Carlsbad, Austria, had so far recovered from their ill health that he need not cross the Atlantic. These good tidings flashed under the sea through telegraph cables several weeks ago. And the tidings have just drifted here to the political flock which is made to He down in green pastures and is led beside the still waters. If the two Senators have kept half an eye on the President, they have seen him appoint Watson and Snider at Lakevlew, but defer the appointment of Gowan at Burns. To a man up a tree it looks as if the President somehow doesn't hitch up with Gowan. It will be remembered that the President hoped the delegation would drop to the hint when the months wore on and Knowles didn't get his job. But the delegation didn't "drop" and the con sequences 'were painful. There are wise sheep in the flock, that suffer direful im aginings of- the heart from this latest case of Gowan. it transpires that Knowles, in spite of his reputation as a man of ability and In tegrity, went to the slaughter as a sort of sacrifice for undesirable men who have been foisted upon the Interior Depart ment in this state. The department has gone so far as to insist that every new Land Office appointee must be untainted even by suspicion. "That's the safe way," says Hitchcock. Consequently Brother Knowles, of L.a Srande, does vicarious atonement for more fortunate gentlemen than himself; among them being Register Dresser, of Oregon City, whom the delegation "forced" through and whose example the delegation took for a guiding star In the Knowles case. John Hall to Hold On. It 'Is commonly understood that John Hall will retain the office of tJnited States District Attorney anyhow until November. Early next month the delegation proposes to agree upon his successor. Mr. Hall is reported to have made the very signifi cant ramark to Senator Mitchell that If let out he would have to retire from poli tics. As time goes on "George C Brownell is regarded less and less as a probable candidate, though some months ago. he appeared to be in the game as big as a woodchuck- The prospects of W. W. Banks for the deputyship are viewed, on the other hand, as having grown brighter. Should Mr. Hall remain in office Banks' chances would probably not be so favor able. Judge Moreland is said by his friends to have grown even more hopeful lately of landing the office. He is supported by Mitchell and Williamson. Fulton feels more obligation to Banks for the deputy ship than to Brownell for the Attorney ship and doubtless believes that "concen tration of his energy for one is better than for two. Hermann will presumably support Percy Kelly, of Albany, or Eddy, of Tillamook, for the position of Attorney. Kelly his been an aspirant while Eddy has not, but both are in the First Con gressional district and formidable rivals of Mr. Hermann for Congress. It will be ever so long before the two Senators plant their feet again in Oregon. The winds will whirl about continually and return again according to their cir cuits until next Summer before the Sen ators will once more gaze upon the frozen bosom of Mount Hood. That will be after the primaries, yea, after the election, and they will not be heje to share the toil and sweat thereof. ' Already each Republican faction In Multnomah is whetting Its knife on its bootleg. Simon "sees" many a fine gen tlejnan In his elegant new offices in the Mo hawk building and Carey receives in the Chamber of Commerce building, the cap tains of the hosts who hope to save the ark from the Philistines. Simon's attitude is one of brag and con fidence; Carey's of doubt and apprehen sion. And the two factions show their teeth at each other as if there wasn't a Democrat on earth. Out through the state Republican poli ticians don't know what they are going to do. "How's things in Multnomah?" they every one ask. Jonathan Bourne has been prowling around catfooted for several moons. This gentleman has a desire to be Senator, which will be satisfied only by the election of himself. Ho Is said to have enough wherewithal for politics. Mr. IJotirne Sees Mr. Simon. Mr. Bourne and Mr. Simon have been to gether several times lately. Mr. Bourne proposes; Mr Simon disposes. Mr. Bourne wants an alliance; Mr. Simon wants to see what Mr. Bourne has got. Mr. Bourne offers to put up a goodly supply of money for campaign expenses. Mr. Simon ap plies his ear, but expects something more. Mr. Simon realizes that Bourne doesn't have many enemies, but is not convinced that he has a large following. Negotia tions have been carried on by the two principals in person, but more frequently through emissaries, chief of whom Is W. K. Burke representing Mr. Bourne. Bourne is willing to succeed either Mitchell In 1907 or Fulton In 1909. He win either precede or follow Simon to Washington, just as the agreement Is struck between them. Bourne has been out over the city drumming up supporters. His -orbit ex tends from the Arlington Club to the dock front. Varying rumors wing their -flight through the political atmosphere. Some times Bourne and Simon .are said to have hitched up for better of worse and other times they are said to be apart. The truth seems to be that Mr. Simon has per sisted In holding aloof. Different motives ore ascribed to Mr. Simon's ,passiveness. Some gossips opine that he doesn't think the alliance would do him any good; oth ers that he hopes for a better combina tion and still others that he refrains from the tie-up because Bourne will insist upon carrying out their agreement and "he can't fool Jonathan." Mr. Simon is perhaps not yet doing much, but he keeps a typewriter busy in his correspondence with leaders in the several wards and Drecincts. In answer to the written summons a dozen or a score of gentlemen confer with him from sunrise to sundown. Ask them the burden of their thoughts and Its the weather or something just as irrelevant Ask them If Mr. Simon is a candidate for the Senate and they will look upon you pityingly before responding "no." ( PasKlveness of "the Enemy.' In sharp contrast with Mr. Simon's be ginnings is the passivoness of the enemy. The brag of the Simon people is depress ing to the followers of Senator Mitchell's organization. W. F. Matthews is said to iwe retired completely from political matters and things, and the dignitaries give this out on every hand. They do not deny, however, that the County Central Committee which holds the powers of the organization Is in fealt yto Mr. Matthews since It was created by him. However Mr. Matthews Is "retired" and that's enough to boost up any drooping heart. Frequent are the conferences between Judge Carey and his aids. Frank C. Baker, Chairman of the State Central Committee, is one of the strong characters. Mr. Baker some months ago was not In close sym pathy with Carey or Matthews, but he has approached nearer and Is supplying a large part of the political wisdom that oozes out in the conclaves. Whitney Boise is often there, also, dwelling on the "committee of managers" with might and main, but that idea was given up long ago. C W. Hodson offers practical advice and so do other gentlemen such as F. A. Bancroft, T. C. Powell, I. L. Patterson. Colonel Dunne, who invited Mr. Matthews to spend last Summer with him at Seaside. As the result of these conferences, plans for a campaign fund are well under way. The unds will be drawn from divers sources, not omitting the police force, city, county and state offices. Judge Carey and Mr. Matthews enjoyed an automobile ride together yesterday In one of those "big tire $3000 boys." as one of the curbstone politicians described It. POSTOFFICE IS MOVING. Work of Installing: Different Depart ments In Xctt Quarters Bejrlns. The work of moving the railway mall department and the Federal Court offices from the Postofflce building to the tem porary quarters on Sixth street com menced yesterday. The remainder of the week will probably be consumed In the accomplishment of this task, and the re moval of the postofflce will not commence before Sunday, if by that time. The temporary building Is now In readi ness for occupancy. It has been refitted for the accommodation of the postofflce and other departments that will be estab lished there, and much more room than has been available in the old building will be afforded. The Postmaster will still be crowded for space, but not nearlj' so much so as In the present quarters. Three moving vans were kept busy all day moving the furniture from the Fed eral Courtroom, the District Attorney's office and the railway mall service de partment, to the new building. These de partments are being Installed on the sec ond floor of the building and It will be several days before they arc in satis factory shape. The office of the mall service has beon fixed up temporarily so that there may bo no delay in handling the railroad mall. It has been decided to leave the city postoffice untouched until all the other offices have been moved and installed in their, new quarters, that there may be nothing to block the work of getting the office Into operation as quickly as pos sible. MANY UNCLES CLAIM HER Japanese Girl Is Detained In Dciv -ver in Spite of Relatives. Japanese living In this city are interest ed In the future of a15-year-old Japanese girl, Massa Shlnagawer, now detained by the Humane Society of Denver, Colo., in spite of alleged uncles of the girl who Jiavo visited Denver from this city, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, CaL; Chicago and 2Jew York. The girl was rescued from a Larimer-street dive in Den. ver, several months ago, and so many per sistent attempts have been made by al leged relatives to gain possession of her that the Humane Society officials have placed her In a location only known to them. One of the girl's uncles, in Den ver, communicated with Editor Ohama, who Is connected with a Japanese news paper in this city, and he started for Den ver armed with credentials from S. Tak- agi, the Japanese Consul for this city. Mr. Takagl says: "The girl Is not personally known to" us. I am only interested In the ease to the extent that I am willing to help any citizen of Japan who might have trouble In the United States of America. The matter has been placed in the hands of the Japanese Consul at San Francisco, under whose Jurisdiction the City of Den ver is. I am told that a young man in Denver wishes to marry the girl, and that she refused him. The Humane Society was consulted in the affair, and I am sure Its officers will take good care of the girl."' MOTHERS MEET MONTHLY Child Life to Me Studied at Harrison-Street SchooL The mothers' meeting, which was held at the Harrison-street school Wednesday afternoon, was largely attended and the greatest interest displayed in the course of study on child life that is to be taken up by the mothers of this school. Hereto fore these meetings have only been held occasionally at the different schools throughout the city, but the ladies in this particular locality have decided to In stitute a monthly assemblage, such as is held In Eastern States and in Califor nia, and by close study of the child's characteristics and ever-injrreaslng Indi viduality, come in closer touch with it. At 'Wednesday's meeting one of the large double classrooms In the Harrison school was completely filled, which gave testimony to the Interest this new plan has awakened. That delightful' book on child life: "Children of the Future," is to be taken up and a chapter studied and discussed at each meeting. Mrs. Dr. J. A. Gilbert gave the address of the afternoon, beginning with the first chapter of this study, and also branching out Into other phases of the question. A short talk was also given by Mrs. Thompson. Mrs. W. J. Hawkins presided over the meeting and has been largely instrumental In promoting the Interest in the monthly meetings. TOOK OFF HANDCUFFS. Insrenions Prisoner on Rockplle Plans Wholesale Jail Delivery. Guards Briggs and Johnson, of the county rock pile gang yesterday morning thwarted a schema for a wholesale de livery of the men. "Spot" Smith, one of the number, was found with a piece of steel which he had removed from a neck tie, with which he succeeded In unlock ing the handcuff he wore. Now ho Is wearing a ball and chain. It has been ascertained that after he had liberated himself Smith Intended to free his companions from their hand cuffs, and at an opportune time, either going or returning from work, they would have made a break for liberty. When at work breaking rocks the prisoners' hands are free, but they are then In a corral and the guards are stationed on the out side. The piece of steel used by Smith is about two inches long and when worked deftly slipped the cuff over tho notches which keep It closed. MAY BE THIRD BANDIT. Jim James In Custody at Everett to Be Returned. Sheriff Storey yesterday stated that Jim James alias Tom Feeney, supposed to be one of the leaders of the band of Iraln robbers, who was arrested at Everett a week ago. Is still In custody at that place. The reason that he has not been hmnirht ,to Portland ere this is that the Sheriff uiu utcn uutu uuii aa iu ins menuiy, oul Mr. Storey now says that he thinks the right man is in custody, and that District Attorney Manning has sent for requisi tion papers. Sheriff "Storey showed Harsh man, the "wounded bandit, a photograph of the man in jail at Everett, and Harsh man said It closely resembled old man James. Miner, alias, Morgaln, the remain ing member of the gang, has not yet been found. LOW RATES OR HIGH? Property Owners Ask Insur ' aifte Underwriters WILL THEY CARRY OUT PROMISE? Reductions "Were Pledged if Steel Flreboat Wan Built But Wooden Craft Is Just as Effective in Fighting; Water-Front Fires. Portland's flreboat will be of wood. Now the question bobs up whether the insur rnce underwriters will reduce rates on the water front as much for a wooden flre boat as for a s".eel flreboat. This question Is of considerable Import to owners of property on the water front and back cvei as far as Third street Al most one year ago the Pacific Board of Underwriters, through Alfred Stillman. its secretary, promised that an up-to-date, otneient rnctoat would afford a re-iuc tlon in ratps of approximately 10 re cent cn the front and for several straits back of the river on both the East and West Side. J. C. Stone surveyor in charge of this district. Pacific Board of Underwriters. hn bet-t urdcrstood to say that a en firettar -nil; not meet first-class re quirements. Mr. Stone would not admit yesterday that wood was the equal of steel for a flreboat ar that a wooden boat would b- entitled te the same benefits from in surance ccn'ranles as one of 5tel. Ilis purported afrertion .that a wool-jn roat wosilJ ro. bring a reduction in rates Mr. Stone branded as untrue and unauthor ized. "But I am really not qualified to talk on this subject," said Mr. Stone. "I he board of underwriters is the proper body of men to corslder it and I must refrain frm. rcsptr-ding to the question wiat they will decide. I was pulled into this discussion aga'.nst my consent." Mr. Stone went on to say that sttel is recognized all over the United Spates as the standard material for a flreboat. "F'.rst-class flreboats are made of steel," hs remarked. "Then won't Portland's flreboat of wood be first cliss?" was asked. Mr. Stone did not make a dlcsct reply. "There are wcoden flreboats all pver the United States," said he, "and they ren der good service. I was just goln to say that every large city has one or mete wooden flrcl:oats but I'm not ur-j of thot. Certain It is, wood has been used in very many cities. But the trend of progress is to replace wc.od with steel. "P do not deny tha a wooisn boat can pump water Just as fast as a steel Voat. I do pot deny that under manv condi tion It can light flre just as well. But I think t ie hazard of approaching close to a hot flre js mare perilous for a wooden boar.. "Suppose that in maneuvering5 aroui Q a flr a wooden boat should get stuck on a sandbar or a mudflat within reach of the flames? V. ould not a steel boat with its uoncomlmstiblc material and light draft be safer? In a harbor like Portland's where there are many shallow places near shore I believe such a consideration should receive close attention. ' "A wooden flreboat will afford much needed protection at Portland. Undoubt edly it will cause reduction of insurance rates." Property-owners are now wondering whether the underwriters are going to "tote fair." '"They're the greatest craw fishes on earth," remarked an insurance agent yesterday. If the underwriters are going to ""craw fish" in the matter of insurance rates property-owners would like to Know It. Mr. Stone would not say what reduc tions the underwriters had authorized. It is known that he and Mr. Stilltnan hai'o gone over the situation and figured out the percentages. The range of rates on the water front is from about V& per cent to 5. Property-owners of Portland are sure to protest against disparagement of a wooden boaL Insurance agents, steamboat men and others declare that a wooned boat is Just as good as steel. Chief Campbell says that In his Interviews with flreboat experts in the East he never heard them say a wooden boat rendered service infe rior to that of a steel boat. Contract for building the Portland flre boat has already been lot by the Executive Board. DOG CATCHER GETS BUSY Sheriff Storey's BIk St. Bernard Caught in Raid, on Canines. The "Black Maria" of dogdom wrought havoc in canine circles yesterday, and several loads of luckless, tagless prison ers. were ruthlessly hurried to the pound. That the dog catcher is not a respecter of classes or pedigrees, no matter how long and eloquent the latter may be, was proved by the fact that he had the te merity to hustle Sheriff Storey's aristo cratic St. Bernard Into the van, and that this scion of bluest dog blood had to ride to tho pound In company with terriers, spaniels, mongrels and curs of low de gree. The situation became so odious that his dogshlp severely chastised a few of these pretenders, just to convince them that he was far their superior. It was but a short time, however, until a permit for his release came from the "seats of the mighty," the Sheriff sending for his highly prized pet as soon as he learned of his Incarceration. SIg SIchel, of the Executive Board. Just baTely escaped having his St. Bernard suffer the same humiliation, and only a hurried visit to the City Hall, where he took out the biggest license any one dog Is entitled to saved this second member of the smart set from a like fate. From the appearance of tho well-loaded wagon It is apparent that many owners of really valuable dogs neglect to pay the license on them, for there were some beautiful animals in the collection.
