THEY ESTABLISH HOSPITAL J)r. R. A. J. Mackenzie Makes Report of Good Work Done Dr. Huge lor's Outburst Is Just an Hysterical Kxprcssion. Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie, who left Portland for San Francisco the day following the earthquake, in charge of the relief psrty of physicians and nurse sent out from this city, re turned last nisht. and spoke in high praise of the work that has been done by Oregontans in the stricken city. He Is inclined to overlook the action of Ir. H. Kugeler. of San Francisco, who presented to the doctors of the Bay City resolutions requesting the Ore gon physicians' to return home, which were subsequently tabled. "This incident should not. he taken too seriously, he said. "Everybody in San Francisco Is still hysterical and nervous. There is no composure and no poise and incidents of this kind are therefore easily explained. The rank snd Ale of the profession in Ban Fran cisco are very Rrxteful for the help that was brought them, especially from Oregon. The best elements. I know, feel profoundly grateful and at the proper time will express their appre ciation." Will Make Complete Report. Pr. Mackensie will make a complete report of the work of the Oregon del rggtion before the general relief com mittee at th Chamber of Commerce this morning. In his report he will ex press the appreciation for the part the ladies of Portland took in beginning the movement to pend a relief expedi tion and the promptness with which the doctors and nurses of the city re sponded to the call made through him. He will trace the movements of the Oregon party from the time-vit left Portland, and will speak of the kind attention paid the members by Gov ernor Pardee, Mayor Schmitz and the people of San Francisco. The portion of his report dealing with the work of the Oregon physicians and the present conditions in San Francisco follows: The physicians of the party received orders to report at different districts of the Presidio military reservation. Drs. Swenson. Spencer. Gavey. Coffman. Bil derback. Hickman and Norris reported to Captain Rand, who had charge of the Bast Cantonment Hospital. Thoy received Instructions and at first their work was that of sanitary inspectors. Had Authority to Impress. "Kacb one had authority to Impress the services of any person, and they super Intended in this manner the digging of trenches and the construction of latslnes, and observed that order and cleanliness were maintained In their tent camps. They also conducted a relief station and visited the sick and gave a dispensary service. Their work was of a most valu able character. Captain Rand has many times spoken of it to me in the most ap proving terms. "The same general service was main tained at Harbor View Camp, which was under the charge of Captain David son. Here Dr. McKechnle, Dr. McCusker, Dr. Barber and Dr. Ellis gave a splendid service. The district is a very large one and occupied by the poorer classes, and it was only by the exercise of firm disci pline and maintaining a very high ef ficiency of service that this splendid body of young physicians succeeded in pre venting much sickness and contagion in their camp. It must be remembered that at least 6000 or 6000 refugees were In camp immediately adjacent to this hos pital. In all there were probably 30.000 refugees in the Presidio district. Fine Hospital Organization. "Although a full report will be. given of the work of the hospital corps of the O. N. Q.. it will not be out of place to say at this time that under Major Stern berg. Captain Carll and Captai Wight a very remarkable hospital organisation was effected almost in a single day which enabled tills bod op young and energetio men to convert a schoolhouse, the Wllmerding Technical School, at the Fotrero. Into a busy modern hospital where they were enabled to give outdoor relief to an average of 100 patients a day and at th same time receiving In wll-efiulpped wards about 100 cases, a feat of hospital management to which it will be difficult to find a parallel. Colonel Torney detailed me Monday fol lowing the -earthquake to take charge of the United States Army Hospital, which was designated by him as the receiving hospital for all contagious diseases in the City of San Francisco except small pox. The place was formerly a pleasure resort, with bathhouses, pavilions for dancing etc. The grounds are surroundel by high fences and divided into rectangu lar spaces by cypress hedges. 12 to 15 feet high, affording shelter against the biting winds of the bay. The bathhouses, about 100 in number, were converted into little wards to receive children sick with diph theria, scarlet fever, chickenpox, mumps and erysipelas.- Each disease was isolated in a different bath pavilion. Vse Dancing Pavilion. "The large dancing pavilion at the other end of the grounds and away from the bathhouses, was converted into a large hospital. It was partitioned by burlap and unbleached muslin into six wards, each capable of containing 40 cases or 240 in all. Only cases,of measles were received In this pavilion. On Sat urday last I took the first step to in stall a tent hospital in one of the large rectangular spaces to receive cases of typhoid fever, which are beginning thus early to appear. "The tent hospital will be capable of harboring 340 cases of typhoid. Each ward will consist of four .hospital camps, placed end to end and each tent will accommo date six patients, or 24 patients to a ward. Every tent and every ward will be pitched in line on both sides of the cam pus, and each will have sewer connec tion. All sewage will be swept into the bay. The wards will be floored 'and the outlay for this hospital of 340 beds will cost less than J1O00. or, to be exact. J2.81 for each patient. Tentage of course will be provided by requisition by the United States Army. "This is mentioned merely to show that in a great crisis hospitals can be built in a day which will possess for the benefit of the sick greater sani tary facilities and advantages than even the most costly modern hospitals. o Disease Epidemic. ' "At the present time there is no disease epidemic in San Francisco. Harbor View Sanatorium is a safe index of the epi demic pulse. Contagious diseases are not abnormal in numbers, but the conditions are at present highly favorable for their propagation and spread, and the numbers-will Increase steadily. The exami nation of the water of San Francisco demonstrates the presence of Colon bacil lus and the bacillus of Eberth. which, of course, implies that the water supply has been infected by sewage. It is quite likely that the surface infection and contam ination will affect the broken water mains for some time to come. The catastrophe of the fire would probably have been pre vented had not the earthquake destroyed immediately the water supply and the great fire chief. "The reports of epidemics of smallpox and bubonic plague are false, misleading and mischievous. It is the greatest out rage to perpetrate sucli wanton cruelty upon a people already afflicted beyond all human endurance." ; f REGISTRATION FOR MtXTNOMAft I The total registration in Multnomah f County follows: Republican IB. 777 ? lmfxratlc 4.02 Miscellaneous l.O'i 4 Total 21,873 . MEETING OF CLUBS ACCUSED OF FIRING CHURCH Iowa Baptist Preacher Arrested on Charge of Arson. "WATERLOO, N. Y.. May 7. Rev. C. C. Stuart Bain, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Waterloo, was arrested here yesterday on a charge of arson in the third degree and arraigned in the police court. The hearing was adjourned until Tuesday and Mr. Bain was committed to jail. His church here was burned March 6 last. The pastor's arrest followed a long ex amination before District Attorney Bo dine, during which Mr. Bain was asked to explain certain letters he is alleged to have received concerning the church and which the prosecution claims he wrote himself. Mr. Bain denied having set fire to the church. He came here last Octo ber from Newburgh. and no cause can be assigned for his alleged acts. j Trolley Car Wreck In Jersey. NEW YORK. May 7.

PURPOSES OF THE CALL More Perfect and Harmonious Or ganization, It Is Thought, Will Result From the Gather ing Tomorrow Night. With a view to forming a more per fect and harmoniously working or ganization of the Republicans of Mult nomah County, a mass meeting of representatives of all the clubs will be held in the quarters of the Republican Club of Portland, in the Columbia building,, tomorrow evening. This meeting was called after a conference between leading members of a number of the larger clubs of the county. In the last few years many clubs have been formed. Some of them discon tinued their meetings and their exist ence is almost, forgotten until some of the officers find occasion to call the' members together. Republicans, after a lapse of considerable time without any meetings, forget to which of the many clubs they belong, and at tendance dwindles. In some instances the officers constitute In reality the club and perform all the work. Will Remove Difficnlties. It Is chiefly to remove these difficul ties that the general conference has been called. Some time ago it was as serted by the president of one of the clubs that vague charges of grafting have been circulated, much to the In Jury of Republican workers. The story that was circulated was that the offi cers of one of the clubs tried to ex tort a payment of money from candi dates in consideration of Indorsement by the club for nomination. Whether these stories were true or not, was not asserted, but the gentleman who called attention to them said that the preva lence of these reports made it neces sary that united action be taken to prevent such practices and relieve the clubs from the suspicion which may rest upon them. Men do not always distinguish the names of clubs and an evil reputation gained by one club must be borne in some degree by others. The meeting of representatives -.,t all the clubs is therefore expected to result either in consolidation or some form of concerted action which will keep all the clubs alive that are working faithfully foe the good of the party and devise some means of put tins an end to any that may be car ried on for purposes of graft. Call for the Meeting. The call for the meeting was issued by Charles E. Lockwood. secretary of the Republican Club of Portland, in a letter which follows: "At a meeting of the executive board of the Republican Club of Portland, Or., held last Wednesday evening, a report of the committee of said club on reorganization was considered, and I was directed to invite you, together with the other general Republican clubs ' in this county, to Join in the consolidation of all such clubs into one organization. "I therefore extend to your organi zation such invitation and suggest that you appoint a committee of five to meet with a like committee of other general organizations Wednesday eve ning May 9, at S o'clock, at the head quarters of the Republican Club, 21 o Columbia building, to carry out the above-name consolidation." Will Open State Campaign. The Republican state campaign will be opened at Corvallis tonight, and will he followed tomorrow evening with a rally at Salem. The Salem meeting promises to be no less enthusiastic than that at Corvallis, the home of the Republican nominee for Governor. Salem Republic ans are showing the get-together spirit, as indicated by the fact that ex-Governor Geer. the leading opponent ' of WMthy combe for the nomination, will preside at the meeting and deliver an address. Geer will make a number of addresses In this campaign. The third important rally of the campaign will be held at Ore gon City on Thursday evening, when nearly all the Republican candidates will be present and speak. Walter I Tooze. of Woodburn. will be the principal speak er, in addition to the candidates. Dr. W'ithycombe will be at both the Salem and the Oregon City meetings. Democrats Plan Campaign. Multnomah County Democrats have ar ranged for a lively campaign and have opened elaborate headquarters at .127 Seventh street, between1 Washington and Alder. From all appearances, the general supposition that the Democrats are shy on campaign funds is erroneous, but somehow and from somewhere the where with has been obtained to make a good showing at the start at least. The Dem ocrats have established their headquar ters on the ground floor and have ar ranged a desk for each ward In the city. They expect to have a strong force at work and perfect an organization that will make the Republicans sit up and take notice. At the state headquarters in the Lange Hotel, on .Washington street, a less elaborate equipment is provided, but after the meeting of the state central committee, which will be held on Wed nesday evening, it is expected to oarry on an active campaign from the state department. George H. Thomas is in charge of the county headquarters, while Alex Sweek Is managing the state campaign. C.RAV HAIR QUICKLY RESTORED To Its natural color by using Alfredum'a Egyptian Henna.
