THE MOKND'G OKEGONIAN, TUESDAY, MAT 22, 1906. If JUMPS TO D EATH E Edward D. Pittman, While Temporarily Deranged, Commits Suicide. RESISTS PROFFERED AID He Was Superintendent of Portland Cordage Company, and Was Known to Be Worried Over . a Timber Claim. Temporary insanity caused by worri ment over the inability to secure a patent on a timber claim he had taken up some three years ago at White Salmon, Wash., is believed to hav. been the motive for the suicide of Edward D. Pittman, super intendent of the Portland Cordage Com pany, who Jumped from the Victoria dock shortly after 1 o'clock yesterday after noon. The unfortunate man. who had a wide circle of friends in this city, had been In the employ of the cordage concern ever since its organization in 1887, and previous to that time had acted in the capacity of foreman for the old Molson Cordage Company of the early '80s. Had Acted Strangely. According to the officials of the com pany, Pittman, who had left the plant ostensibly to go to Vancouver to file some papers in connection with his claim, had been acting strangely for some time, and the cause is believed to have been an hallucination that he was eventually to lose all rights to the claim which he had taken up some few years ago. for he was especially nervous over the frequent pub lication of land-fraud swindles, which he seemed to think would eventually involve me , claim he .had acquired. Outside of this one peculiarity of de meanor, nothing had been noticed by his associates or employers that would tend to indicate any reason for the suicide. Pittman selected a time of day when there were few persons about the dock A longshoreman who was near at the time Pittman walked to the edge of the dock stated that the man acted queerly but he paid no heed to the visitor until the plainly audible remark of "Here goes nothing" attracted the workman's atten tion, and on looking up saw the man throw down his umbrella and hat and Jump Into the river. The witness of the act promptly gave the alarm and threw ev eral ties and planks to the struggling man in the water, which were promptly pushed away, denoting that the man was determined on suicide. Take Body From River. Patrolmen Glttings and Inskeep, of the mounted squad, soon arrived on the scene, and, with Harbormaster Ben Big- lin and Captain of Police Bruin, they succeeded In taking the inanimate body of the suicide from the river, but all ef forts at resuscitation were fruitless, and Coroner Finley was notified and took charge of the remains. Pittman leaves a wife and three grown daughters, one of whom is married to Harry C. Llebc, of The Dalles, and the others are with the mother at the tim ber claim near White Salmon. Mrs. Pitt man is In poor health, and the news of the unfortunate end of her husband is likely to have a serious effect on the frail woman. Speaks Highly of Pittman. S. M. Mears, general manager of the Portland Cordage Company, spoke in the highest terms of Pittman, who, he stated, was one of the most reliable workmen the firm ever had, and had always Justified his appointment to the responsible position of superintendent, rendering the best of service. Pittman fame from a family of ropemakers, for the father and grandfather of the dead man occupied positions at the head of large manufactories of hemp products in the Fast, where Pittman formerly lived. During his connection with the local company, Pittman had always paid strict attention to business and was a man of exemplary habits, and thought a great deal of his family, and was al ways with"them whenever possible. Up to a few years ago the family occupied a cottage at Woodlawn, where one of the daughters was postmistress for several years, but about three years ago they gave up housekeeping and the mother, whose health was failing, went to White Snlmon and lived on the claim taken up by her husband. With the exception of periodical visits to Portland, which were usually of two or three weeks duration, the wife and daughters have resided on the home stead ever since. Mrs. Pittman was in Portland recently, having come down for a visit, but returned within the last ten days. Pittman was about 65 years of age and was an active member of the A. O. V. W., and is said to have belonged to other organisations. The body was identified by means of his Workman card, which contained the only clew found on his person. Friends of Pittman say that he would have befn able to commute on his claim within a short time, but that Government red tape and delay in re ceiving final papers preyed on his mind and caused the commission of the -act of self-destruction while temporarily deranged. EXGIXEEHS WILL SURVEY BAR Expect to Map Mouth of Columbia In Next Ten Pays. A party of United States engineers left for Astoria on the steamer Arago yester day for the purpose of surveying the Col umbia River fear. The party is composed of seven experi enced men. under the leadership of W. G. Carroll, and expect to be able to finish their labors in mapping the bar in about 10 days. The length of time it will take to accomplish the survey depends on the weather. No attempt will be made to secure data unless the bar la smooth, and by adher ing to this rule the engineers expect to securo absolutely reliable figures. OVERDUE LIXER ARRIVES.

In cluding 17,000 barrels of Japanese ce ment. The Numantla left Yokohama May 1, and as she usually makes the trip in 17 or 18 days, some uneasiness was felt In shipping circles over her nonarrival, which has been dispelled by her ap pearance at the lower harbor.

E STEAM THE SLANDER Municipal Association Acts Upon the Request of Mr. Bourne. HIS LETTER TO THAT BODY Defamatory Circulars Issued to In' jure His Standing as Candidate for Senate Promptly Met by Republican Candidate. At the request of Jonathan Bourne,. Jr.; the Municipal Association of Port land, has appointed a special commit tee ftrr the purpose of Investigating the charges that were- made against Mr. Bourne during the primary cam paign. This committee, composed of E. C. Bronaugh, Samuel Connell and H. R. Albee, has been in session several days and it is understood has examined about a dozen witnesses. What the testimony has been, is not disclosed and probably will not be until the com mittee gets ready to make a report to the association. It Is not expected that the committee or the association Intends either to Indorse Or disapprove any candidate for the United 8tates Senatorship, but .will merely state the facts it has discovered In this Investi gation. Calls Many Witnesses. Miller Murdock. a prominent member of the association, has jbeen conduct ing the examination and has called every person who would probably know anything- as to the facts con cerning the character of the head quarters Mr., Bourne conducted at Salem during the Senatorial cam paigns. While the names of the per sons who have been called have not been made public. It is understood that some of those who caused the publicity of circulars attacking Mr. Bourne dur ing the primary contest, have been be fore the committee and have told what they know. It Is also understood that a number of Bourne's political friends and political enemies have been before the committee, while some who were asked to be present refused. A member- of the association said last evening that the committee would be in Besslon this afternoon in the office of E. C- Bronaugh, in the Fenton building, between 4 and 6 o'clock, and thataany person who knew anything pertinent to the matter being investi gated was requested to attend and tell what he knew. lietter of Mr. Bonrne. The letter received by the commit tee from Mr: Bourne, is as follows: Portland. Or., May 10. 1906. Mr. John Bain, Secretary Municipal League, Portland. Oregon. Dear Sir: As you are probably aware, I am the Republican candidate for the office of United States 8enator. having been given the nomination therefor at the late primary election, notwithstanding slan derous assaults upon my character to defeat me. The defamatory attacks were made In anonymous circulars sent broadcast through the malls, charging me with having main tained political headquarters In the Eldrldge block at Salem, where I debauched men with money, wine and women to accomplish some diabolical political outlawry. Your organi zation, standing for civic righteousness, will be an important factor in the June election, and in my Judgment it owes It to me. to Itself and to those citizens who are guided by Its counsels in political action, to In vestigate the charges and make public its findings In the premises. I therefore re spectfully ask you to appoint a committee of your members to make such investigation and to publish the findings therein. On ap plication I shall be pleased to furnish you the names of many persons who were visit ors and sojourners at my headquarters, and who have personal knowledge of all that was done there. Respectfully. JONATHAN BOURNE. JR. The association did not feel that the scope of Its work included the Investiga tion of the records of candidates for the United States Senate, and such an inves tigation would not have been undertaken except upon the request of the party in terested. The association felt that Jus tice to the candidate and the general public required a thorough investigation. L OF THE OBJECT TO FAVORABLE RATE MADE FOR PORTLAND. Northern Pacific Railroad Reduces Tariff on Merchandise for the Alaskan Trade. Railroad men are commenting unfa vorably on the wail that comes from Seattle because the Northern Pacific has put Into effect a rate on Alaska business that allows Portland jobbers to do busienss in that territory by ab sorbing a rate of 7 cents on all classes of merchandise shipped from Portland to Alaskan points by way of the Sound. The protests from the Sound Jobbers Indicate that they do not care to enter into competition with Port land merchants for business even when the Oregon metropolis labors under a handicap. The rate on Alaskan goods from Portland to the Sound was formerly 30, 25, 23 and 20 cents, depending upon which of the four classes the commodi ties were to be shipped. A week ago a rate of 7H cents to the Sound was put In for first-class merchandise and other grades of goods, with certain excep tions, but the rate covers everything shipped by Portland wholesalers to Alaska. Portland Jobbers are now get ting a foothold In Alaska under this rate, absorbing the cents on every hundred pounds themselves. But the Seattle spirit evidently could not allow fair competition, even when its opponent for the business labors under a disadvantage and loud . pro tests have been coming to the North ern Pacific from the Sound since the rate was Instituted. In a territory where they are strongly entrenched It would seem that the Sound merchants could hold their own with a differen tial against their nearest competitor, but Portland has evidently already made serious Inroads into the Alaska market, whtch has formerly been con sidered the preserves of the Sound merchants. Despite the protests from the Sound, there is every reason to believe that the rate, which means much to Port land, will be continued. President Elliott Coming Here. Howard Elliott, president of the North ern Pacific, will reach Portland next Thursday afternoon by special train. With him will be C. M. Levey, president of the Portland & Seattle Railway; H. J. Van Horn, of St. Paul, general mana ger of the Northern Pacific: B. Palmer, assistant general superintendent, with headquarters at Tacoma. and W. C. Al bee, superintendent of the Pacific .divis ion, with offices at Tacoma. The party will probably remain in Portland until Sunday, and a trip along the Columbia by steamer to Inspect the work on the PortlRnd & Seattle will probably be made by. the party, accompanied by engineers in charge of the work from Vancouver. New Electrical Conveyor. Superintendent M. J. Buckley, of ' the Harriman lines, yesterday afternoon in spected the new electrical conveyor that has Just been Installed on the O. R. & N. dock at Albina. This conveyor la 90 feet long and will be a great help in loading vessels. The contrivance carries a stevedore and his loaded truck from the wharf to the ship, and when he has dropped his load he climbs back on the conveyor and both man and truck are carried back to the wharf. A new der rick for handling machinery and other heavy freight has just been set up. The derrick lifts heavy loads from the cars to the wharf, and thence to the deck of the ship moored alongside. Must Abandon the Office. The station of the West Side division of the Southern Pacific Company, which has been maintained in the southwest cor ner of the ground floor of the Chamber of Commerce building for the past few months, has been ordered to move by June 1, and officials of the Southern Pa cific are wondering where they will go. After having been busy for the past few days looking for a new location along Fourth street between Stark and Mor rison, passenger officials have about given up hope of securing a suitable station. In case no satisfactory quarters can be found, passengers on the West Side division will have to take trains and alight at the Union Depot. Made City Ticket Agent. . H. C. Munson, formerly chief clerk in the office of the general agent.' of the O. R. & N. at Spokane, has been made city ticket agent at that place, the ap pointment becoming effective imme diately. This change was made neces sary by the reorganization of the force in that .territory and the segregation of freight and passenger business. George J. Mohler, formerly general agent, has been made district freight agent, with headquarters at Spokane. Will Build Five Bridges. ; Contracts were closed yesterday by President E. B. Lytic of the Pacific Railway & Navigation Company with Wakefield & Jacobsen for the construc tion of five bridges on the main line of the road between Banks and Buxton. Contracts stipulate that the bridges shall be completed in 30 days. . Rate for Eastern Star Chapter. On account of the convention of the Grand Chapter of the Eastern Star of Idaho at Boise, June 1-i 13 and 14, the O. R. & N. offers one and one-third fare from all points in Idaho and from Spo kane, plus il.ld, for the round trip. MUST KEEP FOOD GLEAN RULES WHICH THE BOARD OF HEALTH WILL ENFORCE.

"If anyone had told me all these things were made in Oregon before I had a chance to see for myself I'd have thought he was filling' me." said one admiring spectator after viewing the Washington-street display. His re mark very nearly portrayed the pub lic mind, as it wasbefore the opening of the "Made-in-Oregon" exposition. That the flagship Chicago, with Ad miral Goodrich aboard, is to reach port at an early date was made known at exposition -headquarters yesterday. Sec retary D. C. Freeman received tele graphic Information from Washington, D. C, stating that the Admiral sailed yesterday morning. With good weather and no mishaps the vessel should reach Portland by Thursday or Friday. Whether the Chicago will be accompa nied by other vessels of the Pacific squadron is not known at this time. Yesterday afternoon a brass band in a tally-ho drove about the principal, streets of the city dispensing gay music in honor of the exposition. This fea ture will probably be repeated today.
