10 THIS JlOKMJNtf OKEGOMAN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1905. HOBOES HIRE ' FREIGHT TRAIN Defy the Crew and Ride All the Way From Tacoma to Portland. TWO SUSPECTS ARRESTED Tramps Threaten to Kill the Rall way 3Ien if They -ttempt to Eject Them From the . Car by Force. The crew' of a jpeclal through froight on the Northern Pacific Railway had a sensational time with a sang of hoboes, who practically took possession of ' tho train from Tacoma to Portland, reaching i'his city at noon yesterday. Shortly after the arrival of the train in the Portland yards. Policeman Hlrsch and Hoesley, of the Union Depot squad, -were notified of the affair, and at Third and Burnside streets placed George and Charles Miller under arrest on ousplcion of being members of the gang that defied the reight crew. The pair wore locked up at the City Jail, and booked on charges of vagrancy. After the arrest of flic two men, North ern Pacific officials refused to prosecute them on any charge, and it Is probable they will escape punishment, if they are really those who assisted in taking pos session of the- freight train. They will come before Municipal Judge Cameron to. day for a hearing. It was with great difficulty that the de tails of tho affair were gathered, for Northern Pacific officials positively denied bai any fuch thing occi'rred. and Acting Chief of Police Grltzmacher denied re ceiving any report regarding it. According to the report made to.Mhe police by the conductor of the special freight, a gang of eight hoboes, of very tough appearance boarded the train; southbound, as it left the yards In Ta coma, Four of hem went into an empty boxcar and took possession. When or dered out by the brakemen, they refused to go. The train was stopped and all of the crew got "together and demanded of the hoboes to como out of the car. They refused. The hoboes were In a very ugly mood. and threatened to kill the first man who molested them. Fear of murder kept back tho train crew. The quartet clotod the door and barricaded it. declaring that they would ride to Portland or kill some One. They made good their words, for every ono of them wan -carried to the yards in this city, whore they Jumped from the car and scattered. The Miller brothers weir arrested from descriptions furnished Policemen Hirsch and Hoesly by the tram crew. NOTICE TO PRIZE-WINNERS TI1EY WILL BE MAILED BY THE EXPOSITION.

Notwithstanding the barometer at the present writing Is high and the winds arc from th northwest the conditions arc 'not favorable for a clear day Sat urday, but on tho contrary It will probably be cloudy with "some rain. The winds will shift to southorly. It Is not spected that the day will be wet and windy and altogether dis agreeable, but rather one with light winds and gentle rains. t x EDWARD A." B EALS. District Forecaster. If no unforeseen difficulties .arise, the exhibitors at the Lewis and Clark Expo sltlon will, by tonight, all have been mailed announcements of tho decision of tho group Jurors. There, are a score or Wore of cases "before the superior Jury of awards, but Henry E. Dosoh, director of exhibits, thinks they will all be settled today. While the exhibitors will be apprised of the- awards today, they will not receive the medals and diplomas for a week or two. The medals and the diplomas are n.ot finished yet. The official lists of the awards will be given out sometime next week. 1 The exhibitors will get bronze medals ivlth their diplomas, but no gld medals will be presented. The diplomas specify gold, silver or bronze medals. Colonel Posch says this has. been the custom at oiher expositions, and that many of the exhibitors who receive diplomas have the gold and sllvor medals made themselves, provided,- of course, the "diplomas entitle them to such. Nearly every mall brings one or morn letters to 'Colonel Dosch from the ex hibitors, who express their appreciation of the treatment they have received at the Exposition at the hands of the de partment of exhibits. Several of the let ters received were from exhibitors who had only been awarded diplomas for sil ler rtedals. A complaint was made recently over the rules and regulations governing the department of exhibits, which require ex hibitors to put- up $20 -when they appeal to the$supcrlor Jury of awards. Colonel Dosch' says the $20 Is held as a fund to cover any expenses that may result in the investigation conducted by the supe rior Jury of awards. If all the money Is not used in the examination, it is re turned to theexhlblton, AERSHIP MAllES -FLIGHTS.-' Aeronaut Beachey JIas Two Succcss---' Jul Ascensions. Two successful flights were made by Lincoln .Beachey, the lS-ycar-old boy aero naut. In the City of Portland at the Lewis and Clark Exposition yesterday. In the morning -the airship arose abbut 11 o'clock and remained invthe air not more than 15 minutes.- It crossed Guild's Lake, circled tho Government building, and then returned-to the landing place. Tho afternoon flight was one of the prettiest ascensions that have been made by airships at the Exposition. The weath er conditions could hardly have been Im proved upon, the waters of Guild's Lake being eo calm and -still-that It resembled a mirror, as there was not the slightest brt'ezcLp disturb its surface. Thevspeed of the airship was remark able, dnd Beachey had,lt .under porfect. -vintrol.'- Crossing over ..Guild's Lake, Beachcy passed out of the grounds, then 1 returned to Government Island. He de scribed a figure S around the two lhf mense towers of the Government -building. The airship was ro lqw that the anchor rope, which hangs down from the . framework, dragged across the roof when Beachey passed over the Government building. He alighted with 'perfect case within a few feet of tho spot whence he began the tour In his aerial craft. Portland people will see the City of Portland at the. Exposition for the last time today, or- at least for many years to come. Flights today will be made n't 11 O'clock In the morning, and at 2 and 4 o'clock in the afternoon. When it re turns to the shed after the last flight, the gas,, will be let out from the balloon at tachment and the framework disjointed for shipment. Idaho BullTling to Be Sold. BOISE. Idaho. Oct. 13. (Special.) Gov ernor Gooding has wired Executive Com missioner McBrlde, In charge of the Jdaho exhibit at the Portland. Exposition, to dis pose of tho Idaho 'building to the best advantage and prepare all portions of the exhibits which can he preserved for .Ship ment to Boise. It was proposed to move the building to the capital, the plan being to organize a commercial clubroom. the. building to be used both as a rlubhouse and as a hall for a permanent display of these and other exhibits.

The tribute to the resolute pioneer, whose bronzed and beardod face, as lie journeyed over the scorched plains, told tho history ot a future empire. The demol ishing ax will echo where once' joyous laughter and inspiring melody lingered In the arms of tho adoring air. This realm of beauty by day and night Is ahoukto take its place In the perspective of the-past.

Especially when I reflect (hat after tomorrow my pass will be as valueless as Chinese money. But something too much of this. Away with meuincholy details. Let us all go to the Fair onco more; to leave our tears with the scenes which wo shall behold no more tho Trail, that iiotley medley of music and mirth; those strange Orientals who deal In'European "novelties- (made fa Chloago), withlexiblotprlea. and varirgutcd English with .va riations; the rfrt gallery, harbor pf long-haired men and short-halrou women we shall leave QUr'uara with these.

Portlanders. in par ticular. wrJU And It hard to dl.panse with the constant round of pleasures and dL versions that have marked the Fair since its beginning. There is no doubt but tlmt today's crowds will be of ynofmous proportions, regardlesy of weather. There seems litle doubt but that tho attendance of open ing day will be passed and there are many who believe Portland day will be closely rivaled. While that is barely probable, the attendance. It is believed, will not run very far short or 50.000.' Never before -faas there been so' elaborate a programme as that announced for to day. The list of special events Includes every hour, of the day and night. The most Impresslvehour will be at midnight, vchen the-grim reaper will take the Expo sition to himself, and the Fair will be known thenceforth only by Its work of good In the building up of a vast new region. A strange medley or sounds will speed the dying Exposition. At 11 o'clock the Ellery Band will open a farewell concert. A'tthe hour of midnight this concert will be concluded, and President Goode will arise, and, standing uncouered in the lake front bandstand, declare the. Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition' at an end. The band will then play- that lmmor. tal farewell greeting. "Auld Lang Syne." With the last notes' bedlam will break forth. Six terrific explosions will destroy Admiral Huber's navy, while a veritable hail of rockets and Roman candles ,wlll Illuminate the sky. This demonstration will end with the firing of a set piece bearing In letters of lire the words "Goode Nlght-" .

Crumbaugh, when questioned shortly aftenihe made his narrow escape. "I was sleeping, when I "was suddenly awakened by smoke. . I opened the door and saw the dome fringed with flames, which in the next instant spread over the whole hall. Seeing my exit was cut off In that direction. I ran to the window' Commissioner Garver could say nothing about how the fire originated, as he. was not near the bulldlnc at that time. He "Twas greatly depressed over the loss of the building.. and Its contents, and refused to J be comfortedby his friends. He found a I little consolation, however, in., the- fact that the desk saved held nearly all of the I papers of the commission. Several of the guards say the fire started at the buck j of the ouiiuing, ana tnnt wnen tncy ar rived it was sweeping- underneath and up through the floor Into the building. Commissioner McJInisey's Statement Commissioner McJImsey. when seen last night, said that the grain pictures were probably the most valuable of the exhibits In the Missouri building. He said one of them was valued as high ao 515CO- He said the primary and secondary grades dlyplay in the 'educational dhplay was also much prized, and that it would be years before It could be replaced. Missouri wa3 awarded gold medals for the primary and secondary grades exhibits, and for tim othy, blue grass, leaf tobacco, installation of agricultural product!, grains and for pcveral of the statutes.

Tlfe Missouri building at S Louis was burned upon the nljrht of November 19. 1904. Jut tun days be fore the close of the Exposition. The Missouri building at the Louis iana Purchase Exposition was con structed by that state at a eo!t $1-45,000. and the furnishings were es timated at $75,000. It was not erevt- J for a permanent structure, and one ni the Exposition officials stated that t could not have been sold for nwre tl. i SSOOQ at the time of its destructjn The contents, however. reprhfnt-- . more than the monetary value, as tin Included many paintings of famou citizens that could not be replaed. The fire wan caused by the explosion of a hot-water heater in the baseme?
