This is the first time that United States Army officers have acted as judges of the drills participated in by the Oregon teams of the Woodmen of the World. Hereto fore the officers of the Oregon National Guard have always acted as judges. Lieutenant A. M. Brown, of the Oregon National Guard, Is captain of the Portland Camp, which won the first prize at the contest yesterday. The three teams from the Portland lodges drilled at night, and the teams from the Newberg and Oregon City Camps drilled in the afternoon, Im mediately after the exercises which were held in the Auditorium.

REED PROMISES TO COMPLY Investigation by Fair Officials Gives Color to 'Charges Against Wal ter Reed Concession. Methods Irregular. " ANOTHER SUIT FILED. Mrs. L. McCully, of Jacksonville. Or., who alleges that she has been buncoed by an agent of the Walter Reed Optical Company at the Fair, flled suit In Justice Reld's court yes terday to recover $22.30 and costs.' Mrs. McCully alleges that ber fears were played upon by an agent In or der to havi her buy a pair of spec- -tacles, saying that unless she did so she would lose the sight of her left eye. Mrs. McCully now claims that the spectacles wer? not worth more than $2.50 and is suing for the dif ference. The result of President Goode's inves tigatlon into the business methods of the Walter Reed" Optical Concession was made public yesterday. It was announced that the company had not been dealing in a fair and businesslike manner, and that the complaints of overcharging and causing people to think they were going blind seemed well founded. However, there was no direct violation of contract. It was said, and President Goode stated he did not think the case called for the expulsion of the company from the grounds. Walter Reed was summoned, yesterday morning, to the executive office, where he stated that any faults were the result of over-enthusiastic agents and attend ants. He was advised that honest, open business methods must be followed. Pro fuse promises of future good behavior were given. The charge Investigated by tho Expos! Uon management was brought a week ago by an elderly couple from Michigan. They complained to President Goode that they had been persuaded Into the booth and relieved of $35. for which amount they received a half-doren pair of spec tacles and the assurance that the glasses would save them from going blind- Many similar charges have been mado. and the Exposition management has heard no Wallace M'Camast.

GEVURTZ & SONS, 173-175 First St, Portland UN mm Railroad Magnate Expected in Portland Today. OTHER OFFICIALS ARRIVE No Conference of Traffic Officials Has Been Arranged, but Com plicated Questions May Be Disposed Of. From Spokane comes the report that E. H. Harrlman, the great railroad mag nate, head of the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific system and of trans-Pacific and Pacific Coast steamship companies, has changed his route to San Francisco slnco the announcement was made from Chi cago a few days aco. and Is on the way from Yellowstone Park to Portland, byt way of Seattle. Today It Is understood that Mr. Harriman and his party will make the trip from Seattle to Portland, after making only very brief stops on Puget Sound, arriving here this evening. This visit of. the president of the South ern Pacific and Oregon Railroad & Navi gation Companies will be a complete sur prise to Portland business bodies and commercial Interests. There is no other one Individual whoso power is so great to aid in the development of Oregon that is now so well assured by reason of the large Influx" of people from more popu lous sections of the country this year, nwiy of whom come as visitors now, but seeking opportunity for future locations. Recent announcements of railroad build ing for the immealate future aggregating Investment of approximately 59,000,000 In Oregon and Idaho, to which it is expect ed that the extension of th,e Columbia Southern will Immediately be added, rep resenting an additional investment of per haps $2,000,000, make this an opportune time for Mr. Harrlman to make a visit to Portland. Mr. Harrlman, it is reported, is on his way to the Philippines, to sail from San Francisco about the middle of this month, the intervening time to be spent In looking- over his interests on the Pa cific Coast. J. C Stubbs. traffic director of the Harrlman system, arrived from the East last evening, occupying his private car, attached to the O. R. & N. through train, having been preceded by P. C. Stohr, assistant traffic director, who spent yesterday in conference with local traffic officials of the Northwestern lines. General Manager O'Brien returned last night from a trip over the Southern Pa cific Oregon lines, having traveled over the entire main line to Ashland In the past three days, making stops at the more important places. The coming of the high traffic officials is said to have been for the purpose of meeting Mr. Harrlman here and accom panying him on the trip from Portland to San Francisco. No Information was to be bijd concerning the itinerary of Mr. Harriman, or how long he will remain in Portland, last night, but it Is sur mised tnat, as considerable time inter venes before the sailing date of the steamer for the Orient, he may remain for a day or two. Simultaneously with the c6mlng of this party, it is announced that Louis W. Hill, vice-president of the Great North ern, and an official of several other Hill lines, accompanied by Darius Miller, vice president of the Burlington; Benjamin Campbell, traffic manager of the Great Northern, and a party, are also en route to Portland from Spokane. Traffic Manager Woodworth. of the Northern Pacmc. accompanied by several of the freight department officials of the Western division of that system, has been in Portland for two days, and it is a coincidence that traffic heads of all of the transcontinental roads Reading- to the North. Pacific Coast will probably bhere ALL FULL ! THIS! at the same time. No conference- has been arranged to consider traffic prob lems, but it is considered probable that some of the more complicated questions submitted to local traffic officials may be disposed of. L AND TICKET CASES TWO IMPORTANT DECISIONS TO. BE HANDED DOWN. Irrington Track Injunction Suit and Constitutionality of Antl-Scalp-lng Law Rulings Anticipated. Judge Frazer will this morning- decido the case of Elizabeth Ryan against tho Multnomah Fair Association, in the matter of the demurrer to the com plaint and application for preliminary injunction. In this case an injunction is asked restraining" the sale of pools at the Irvlngton racetrack. A decision will also be rendered by Judge Frazer on the petition of Charles J. Murray, a ticket broker, for a writ of habeas corpus. The court In this caso will pass upon the constitutionality of the anti-ticket scalping- law. The at torneys for Murray have submitted many autnorlties to show that the act is unjust and creates a monopoly In favor of the railroad companies, and the attorneys for the latter have argued that the law is good and that similar acts have been sustained in other states. Approves Sale of Stocks. Charles H. Carey, administrator of the estate of Joseph Holladay, deceased, reported the sale of 625 shares of stock In tho Willamette Steam Mill Lumber ing & Manufacturing Company to D. L McLeod for $4000.

The property is de vised to the widow, Clara K. Oehme. ' I SHOW AT TIE FU IiOCAIi FANCIERS WANT PLACE AT LIVESTOCK EXHIBIT. Portland Kennel Club Asks Exposi tion to Offer Premiums Mat ter Is Under Consideration. The Exposition management is now considering the advisability of giving a dog show In. connection with the live stock exhibits which open next month.
