THE MUKJNJLNt OKE GONIAL, WEDNESDAY, HAIECH 2, 190 SECOND HORSE SALE Buyers From All Sides Tor Blooded Stock. GOOD PRICES ARE RECEIVED Portland's Place as Horse-Market of the Northwest Fixed by Bidding for All Grades From Rac ing to Draft Stock. Portland's second .annual auction sale of blooded horses -is In progress at Irving ton track. It opened yesterday morning at 10 o'clock and will, continue until Thurs day evening, there being about 300 fine animals, ranging in class from fast track horses to heavy draft stock. Among them are fancy saddlers, roadsters, stallions, brood mares and colts. The sale is being conducted by J. L. Mc Carthy & Son. the well-known horsemen of this -city, who inaugurated the move ment to make Portland the principal horse market of the Northwest last year. The first sale proved such a success that they decided to repeat it this year, and from the interest manifested yesterday it seems certain to be a permanent annual event. Prominent horsemen are in attendance from all over the Northwest, and yester day's bidding was spirited. "While the prices paid 'averaged well, there were many bargains, and some very fine ani mals were bought much cheaper than they could have been secured at private sale. The figures paid for the aristocratic horseflesh ranged from $50 for an untried yearling to $500, -the price which N. K. "West paid for Hallie Hinges, a 4-year-old ay mare with a record of 2:1S4, consid ered one of the best racing prospects in the "West. The sale was conducted in the betting shed, and, in spite of the inclement weath er of the forenoon, a large crowd was present all day. The auctioneers were J. I McCarthy and T. Tonner, of Seattle, and the sale was admirably conducted by them. A large number of local horse fanciers were present, but the majority of the buyers were out-of-town men. , Today's offerings are probably the best of the many horses consigned for sale, although a number of good ones will be reserved until Thursday. Among the prominent visiting horsemen who are bidders at the sale are; .S, "White, Victoria. B. C; J. J. Bottges and Q. Hardy, Vancouver. B. .C: W. F. Miller and P. A. Barnhart, Kamloops, B. C; A.

March L Perhaps the most interesting detail of the after math of the Corbett-Sulllvan fight at Me chanlcs' Pavilion last night, when Dave Sullivan was beaten by the champion, is the fact that, though defeated, Dave will get more money than Corbett. By 'an arrangement with the club the fighters were to get 65 per cent of the receipts. Of this Sullivan was guaranteed $2500, win or lose. There was only $5500 In the house, and when Sullivan's $2500 had been subtracted from the 65 per cent of this there was only $1000 left for the win ner. Corbett had confidently expected that the ,fight would draw an $SO0O or $10,000 house. Sports agree that Sullivan was entirely outclaused. Hanlon Outpoints Decker. PHILADELPHIA.

He Denies His People Are Prlest-Rld- den and -Says -Church'. Did' Not Work for Smool's Election. Mathlas F. Cowley, one of the 12 apostles of the Latter Day Saints, com monly called the Mormon Church, deliv ered an address last evening to a large audience in the Burkhard building on the East Side. Mr. Cowley, who occupies the same position In the "Mormon Church as Senator". Reed Smooth travels through the territory aslgned him looking after the missions contained in it He is ac- oompanled -by Nephl W. Pratt,- president of the Norfhwestern States Missions, and is considered one of the ablest men in the Mormon Church. He said the word "Mormon" means "more good" and . "Monnonlsm" means "the system which stands for -all truths.'' "It contemplates." said he, "the develop- COLONEL CHARLES WELL-KNOWN AGENT OF NATIONAL MANUFACTURERS' ASSOCIATION. KNOXVILLE. Tenn., March 1. Colonel Charles Kahlo, of Indianapolis, rep resentative of the National Association- of Manufacturer?, headed by D. M. Parry, killed himself at a local hotel today. He was in tho United States Con sular service under President Harrison, and has held positions of trust in In diana. No reason is assigned for the act. (Colonel Kahlo Is well known in Portland, having visited the city last summer-In the Interests of th! National Manufacturers' Associayon. HIs mission was to interest Portland manufacturers and business men"' in the organiza tion whose primary object is to resist the growing power of the labor, unions. He made many friends and Impressed them as a genial man of wide experience.) ment of every Godlike attribute In every human being." He admitted that simi lar claims were made for Christianity In general, but failed to discover the fruits of It, dwelling particularly on the lack of unity. Mormonlsm. had gathered its vo taries from every nation and sect without the influence of an educated ministry, not by the arguments or eloquence of the preachers, but by "the testimony of con viction brought to their own souls by the spirit of divine truth.'' He quoted Joseph Smith as saying In reply to one who asked him how he governed so many people: "I do not govern them; I teach them true principles and they govern them selves." By this spirit of unity, without being bound by ironclad rules, the Mormons had achieved great results against many ob stacles and bitter opposition. He denied that they were priest-ridden and had no dissension in the election of church offi cers, and quoted the "Book of Doctrines and Covenants," as requiring that all things be done by common consent in the church, that no person be ordained to any office without the vote of the church, that "no power or Influence ought to be maintained by virtue of the priesthood, but by long suffering," etc He continued: Indeed, there Is no power nor authority in the church to place a man in office it the peo ple, by majority vote, reject him. In several instances in the days of our respected brother. President Brigham Young, when he presented the names of men of high position, they were turned down by the vote of the people. Nor did the president seek to force his wishes, for he knew the laws of the church governed such matters, and must obey them with the same humility required of the humblest mem ber. The Gospel of Christ is the "perfect law of liberty." and that freedom finds its. fullest expression in the workings of what is called the Mormon Church. Mr. Cowley went on to claim the ful fillment of the prophecies of Joseph Smith -in the rise of spiritualism, in the general acceptance of belief in the re demption after death of those who died without a knowledge of the gospel in this life, In the abrogation of the doctrine of infant damnation, in the increased favor with which the law of tithing Is regarded by the churches. He predicted that the Ideal condition depicted in Bellamy's "Looking, Backward," where there shall be such an equality among men that there shall be no rich and no poor, will yet be realized. He said that this doctrine was taught and practiced by the Mormons, and that Bellamy drew many of his ideas from the writings of Joseph Smith. He said: "Each event affecting the welfare of na tions, you will find to be a means in the hands of God to more completely rivet the truth of Mormonlsm on the souls of men, and to point out the fact that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God." On the subject of tho attempt to ex clude Senator Reld Smoot from the Sen ate, he said: Senators and politics are no part of our re ligious' cervices, and as a Senator Mr. "Smoot does not represent any church nor any one clan of people. He was elected by a Re publican Legislature consisting of Mormons and non-Mormons, and no church influence was used to elect him. We do not use church. Influence in politics. We are Republicans and Democrats, and aa citizens of the United States have a right to take part in the elec tions' of our country. Mr. Smoot Is & prac tical, wide-awake, business man a promoter of the mining, manufacturing, agricultural and stockralslng Industries of our state. Some of his most ardent admirers and supporters in Utah are Gentiles, and as a Senator he represents them as much as he does the Mor mons. He represents them all alike. The church has no concern about the retention of bis seat In the Senate, it had nothing ta do with his election. It the Senate casta him out. It will not retard the progress of thjj church in the least degree. The church depends upon God to promote her Interests upon the earth, and not upon a United States Senator. W low cur cou&to; aa& U tlartam tolUa- tioca. We have always ben loyal and always shall be. He closed with a declaration that the Mormons are loyal citizens, the progeni tors of Smith, Brigham Young and many other leading' families having fought ii the Revolutionary WaT.&na- tfce.lr de scendants in the Spanish iWar, WATSON STDjL WILL NOT TELE Court Decides to Question Him No More in Famous Porter' Failure. CHICAGO. March 1. Examination of James S. Watson in connection with his knowledge -of the businessaffairs of the Porter Brothers Company, the bankrupt fruit and produce concern, was abandoned today by Attorney Bach, reprenentative of New York creditors, during the. bearing at the case before Referee in Bankruptcy Wean. Mr. Watson, who was president of the fruit company before it became bankrupt, has been called as a witness several times since the hearing began. When Watson. was called to- testify; today, he appeared to be Ignorant, of jthS'bVslness transactions of the-"defunct company, as on former occasions, and It was decided it would be Useless to question him further. "On previous occasions you have pfead ed that if you werejjiven time to inspect your books you could give intelligent an- KAHLO ENDS HIS LIFE swers to my questions," said Attorney Bach. "Do you think you could answer the questions today if this examination Is further prolonged?" "I don't know." replied Mr. Watson. Attorney Bach then asked Referee Wean if he believed any more information could be obtained If the witness be allowed fur ther time," and the court gave it as his opinion, but not as an official suggestion, that the examination of Mr. Watson might as well end now as at any future time. Mr. Watson was then excused from fur ther examination by Attorney Bach. Nelson R. Doe, of New York, who was a partner with Porter Bros, until 1S99. was the next witness called. Mr. Doe said he did not know what liabilities the firm had when ho retired from It, but it was tho custom of the company to pay off all debts as fast as they accumulated. Examination of several other witnesses in the case, which Involves more than $1,000,000.' will be resumed tomorrow. , Steel Syndicate Finally Formed.

Nebraskan the First to Load on At? lantic Coast for This Clty-Buford ! Sails From Portland. The American-Hawaiian Steamship Company will include Portland in Its schedule. Word to that effect was rer ceived yesterday, by the Charles -F Beebe Company, the Portland agents otl the line. The steamship company operates a fine line of vessels between New York and San Francisco, occasionally going to Puget Sound. The return trip includes Honolulu or San Diego. The first of the line to come to Port land will be -the Nebraskan, a new steam ship of 8000 tons, capacity. She," will Sail from New York on April 15 ior Sari Francisco -and Portland, and will make the trip in about SO days. She is now a month out from San Diego for the AtT lantic coast. It is hoped that this will be only ari opening and that the service will become permanent. A few years ago, vast quantities of merchandise were brought direct tor Portland from . New York by American sailing vessels, ono arriving every month. Of late these goods .have been- shipped out to San Francisco and there transferred to the O. R. & N. steamers and other coasters, and brought to this city. A through line will offer many, advantages and as the business has -reached great propor tions, it is believed the- arrival of Amer- Uican-Hawalian steamers will be a regular thing in the future. The. fleet operated by the company be tween the two seaboards numbers seven vessels, the Nebraskan, Californian, Ari zonan, Oregonlan, American and Hawa iian. The Nebraskan and Nevadan are sister ships and are oil burners. DIX SAILS FROM ASTORIA. Nothing More Hyard From Schooner 1 Garms. ASTORIA. March 1. (Special:) The succession of gales that has been raging off. tho." coast during the past 12 days'. has, ceased and today for the first time since February 18. the bar was smooth. This morning the wind shifted to the west and then to the northwest, where it now remains, an Indication of pleasant weather. During the day the harbor was cleared of all the outward bound vessels that were ready for sea, Including the transport DIx. Only three vessels crossed In. They were the steamers Oregon and Elmore and the schooner Laura Madscn. The latter was 13 days from San Fran cisco and had been driven to the north ward by the gales. During the trip a portion of her head gear was carried away, but no great damage was done. Nothing has been heard Xrom the schooner William F. Garms since she was off the mouth of the river several days ago, but among shipping men who are familiar with the vessel, no alarm is felt for her safety. She has been driven north by the gale and. belnsan unusually 'poor sailer, has been unable to work back. The tug people expect "she will show up at the bar tomorrow If the north west wind continues. BUFORD LEAVES FOR THE SOUTH Takes a Small Quantity of Lumber From This City. The Army transport Buford, bound for San Francisco, . left down the river at 32:30 yesterday afternoon in charge of Pilot Paterson. She carried as cargo only about 560,000 feet of lumber.- No ma rines were taken, contrary fo the first expectations. It la probable she will re ceive troops! at San Francisco for trans portation to the Philippines. The Buford is arranged as a troop ship, with only enough room aboard for the men and their baggage and supplies. Why spe was sent here for cargo 13 what people along the waterfront want to know. According to first reports, she was ordered to take about 1,000,000 feet of lumber, but somebody evidently made a miscalculation, for only a little over half a million could be put aboard of her, and that by utilizing space intended for soldiers' quarters. The transport has no cargo hatches or other facilities for load ing lumber, and it was slow and unsatis factory work putting the cargo .in her.
