12 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JUNE 11, 1906. DYNAMOS RUED AT OREGON CITY Great Damage and Threat ening Fire Result From Cross-Circuit at Portland. SERVICE BADLY CRIPPLED Street-Car Traffic Is Shut Down Between the Two Cities, Arc Lights Extinguished, and Falls City Is in Vtter Darkness. I REGON CITY, , Or., June 10. (Spec ial. ; Fire tonight did extensive damage to the Portland General Electric Com pany's Jl.ooo.000 plant in this city. As a result of a cross-circuit In the com pany's plant at Portland three of the largest dynamos at the Oregon City sta tion were burned out, three others were ruined by water, a switchboard was burned out and all the connecting wires destroyed, rendering the plant inopera tive. Portland and Oregon City streets were left in darkness and street car traffic between the two cities was tem porarily interrupted. Superintendent Olsen reports the ex tent of damage cannot be ascertained before morning, by which time it is ex pected some of the destroyed connections can be re-established, although it will be fully six months before the company can resume its complete service. Valuable Plants Threatened. Fire started at 8 o'clock and for some time the entire electric plant, as well as the valuable property of the Wil lamette Pulp & Paper Company and the Crown Columbia Pulp & Paper Com pany, were threatened. Promptly with the discovery of the blaze the roof sprinkling plants at both the paper mills were placed in operation and further damage from the flames, which partially destroyed the roof and cupola at the electric station, was prevented. All the fire apparatus with which the paper mills are equipped were then di rected on the fire, which was brought under control within an hour. At the Bounding of a general tire alarm, church services were dismissed and citizens rush ed to aid in saving the threatened prop erty. With the cessation of light and power service grocery stores were opened and a wholesale business followed in candles. Good Work of Volunteers. Superintendent Lang, of the Willamette Mills, a large force of paper employes and the members of the city Volunteer Fire Department united in bringing the fire under subjection. Little damage resulted to the building of tne Portland General Electric Com pany, which !s of expensive concrete con struction, the principal harm being con fined to the valuable machinery and equipment of the plant and the utter destruction for an Indefinite period of the company's service. CANDLES LIGHTED AT FALLS Band Plays "A'hile People Wait for the Cars. From 8 o'clock until nearly 9 o'clock last night the City of Portland and its nearest suburbs were in almost total darkness because of the fire in the Port land General Electric Company's plant at Oregon City. A crew of men was put at work at once at the auxilliary steam plant of the company at Twenty-first and Nicolai streets in North Portland, and it was but a short time until sufficient electricity was generated there to give light everywhere and complete power service to the streetcars and factories throughout the city. During the shut down all the cars were stopped except a few lines on the East Side. At the Oaks several thousand people were gathered when the accident came. Manager Friedlander had candles lighted all over the grounds and the band work ed overtime amusing the crowd while it waited for a resumption of the elec tric light service. About town people gathered in groups waiting for the cars which did not come, and the office force at the police station was kept busy tell ing the officers who reported in what had happened to the lights on their beats. The seat of the trouble was in the steam plant in North Portland. A pot head at the end of a feeder cable burned out and this caused a cross-circuit, which was transmitted through the sub Btation at Seventh an Alder streets to the main plant at Oregon City. The damage, it is claimed at the head office of the company, is not so great as was at first thought. O. B. Coldwell. operat ing superintendent of the Portland plant, left last night for Oregon City with a crew of men to begin repairs. He ex pects to have current coming out of Ore gon City this morning in sufficient quan tity to supply all demands satisfactorily. "I do not think the actual money loss will exceed $3000," Mr. Coldwell said. "I do not believe any of the generators at Oregon City were injured beyond repair. Outside of the damage to the three ma chines, the wire tower and part of the roof were burned and considerable dam age was done to the switchboard. No fear need be felt about the supply of current. AVith what we can generate in our steam plant here and what we .can get out of Oregon City there will be plenty of power for all consumers." AT THE THEATERS What tha Press Agent Say. "The Bounders Tonight. The attraction at the Heilig Theater tonight at 8:15 o'clock, and every night this week with, the popular matinees "Wednesday and Saturday, will be the Kendall Musical Com pany, in the musical comedy uccew, "The, Rounders." This ia without a doubt the best musical company Portland has had in a Ion 5 time, and, judKlns from the hit this excellent company made lat night, crowded houses will b the rule, at every performance. The cast is composed of such artists as Lottie Kendall, Bessie Tannehill, Myrtle Vane, Rob ert Pitkin, Ben Lodge, Millar Bacon, Ned Lynch and chorus of 30 people, which com prises a bevy of beautiful girls who can both sins; and dance. Remember the first popular matinee next Wednesday afternoon. Real Earthquake and KIre. The San Francisco earthquake and fire Is to be reproduced on the Lewis and Clark fair grounds, the only ones of sufficient size In the city to allow a demonstration of what actually happened. In San Francisco during the disaster of April IS. Oro, Pollard & Hall have secured, the fair grounds for the nights of June 13. 14, 13, Id and 17, and will give not a minature, or automatic ex hibition, but a full-sized reproduction with real people, real brick, stone and wooden buildings, and all are destroyed by what appears to be a real earthquake and fire. The inventors and promoters of the spec tacle were eye witnesses and well acquainted with the city as It was. consequently no de tail escaped them, and the disaster will be reproduced exactly as It happened, or as near as human beings can come to It. It requires 110 Imagination on the part of the spectators to believe they are gaiing on Market street, from Valencia to the ferry, where the ruin was greatest. All the prominent buildings are seen, together with many lesser ones. In fact, as much of the city as possible is spread before the audience. The buildings are seen to topple and fall, the streets and car track to move. The inhabitants dash from the houses only to meet disaster in the streets, which by this time are covered with debris. Fire Is dis covered In eeveral parts of the city simul taneously and as no water Is available the city was rapidly consumed, save such por tion as are saved by dynamite; which Is fchown by the razing of several large brick and wooden buildings. In plain view, a wonderful sight to one who has never seen the terrible power of that explosive. The value of the automobile Is clearly demonstrated, several being used In order to truthfully portray the value they had in San Francisco. The service rendered by the army, navy and Red Cross Is shown by real men and women. In fact everything is real, life-size and natural. AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS All Feature Bill at Grand. An all-feature bill is promised this week at the Grand, beginning with the matinee this afternoon. Bach act on the programme Is or has been a headliner. The act most heavily featured is Rapoli, the juggler. His act is filled with sensations. Bert Levy, the car toonist and artist, is making his first vaude ville tour In the WeBt.

"Her Anniversary Present" will be given by Mr. and Mrs. Lock wood. Clifford and Orth are rapid-fire Jokers, and the rest of the bill Is up to the standard of the Grand. Noted Singers at Pantages. It will be welcome news that the famout Techau Tavern Quartet is back for another week's engagement at Pantages Theater. When these delightful grand opera singers were here a few weeks ago they took the town by storm. Now they are back with a new programme, which includes a part of the famous opera "Martha" in costume. Supple menting this big musical feature will be a long list of attractive vaudeville features, every one of them worthy of the vaudeville house at which, they will appear. The blo graph will picture a lively moving-picture comedy, "That Limburger Cheese." Hotel Film -Flam at? Star. Today the iStar Stock Company begins its sixth successful week with another musical farce called Hotel Flim-Flam." This is one of those comical affairs with musical Inter ruptions which the Star Stock Company has been producing for the past few weeks. The "Hotel Film-Flam" will be open to guests every afternoon and twice each evening this week. This week the chorus girls will be heard In new songs and seen In new dances and costumes. The vaudeville part of the bill will be up to the mark established at the Star. There will also be life-motion pictures projected by the Staro scope. Lyric Stock Company's Bill. At the matinee this afternoon the Lyric Stock Company will present a new play. "Brought to Justice" is the title of the coming attraction. This is a powerful play, showing that no one can do wrong without paying the penalty. In this case the villain Is a man of the deepest dye. and his plans against the hero, although successful for a time, are eventually overthrown, and he Is forced to receive his punishment brought to justice, in other words. "Brought to Justice" will be played each afternoon next week and twice each evening. FRANCHISE IN ST. JOHNS TELEPHONE COMPANY WILL ESTABLISH SYSTEM. Present Service With Switching In Portland Unsatisfactory Short Term Grant Contemplated. City Attorney Greene, of St. Johns, Is framing an ordinance granting the Pa cific States Telephone Company a fran chise In that city. An effort is being made to prepare a franchise that will prove satisfactory to the company and to the city. St. Johns people want an improved telephone service and the tele phone company wants to provide better service. This can only be done by estab lishing a central station. At present all switching is done nine miles away, at Portland. The company will establish a central station at St. Johns. Officials of the company this week held a conference with Mayor Valentine and Councilmen of St. Johns, In which it was agreed to try to. draw up a satisfactory ordinance. The City Attorney was in- BBOKEN MIRE BLOCKS TRAFFIC. t Shortly after noon yesterday & trolley wire on -the electric railway line crossing the Madison-street bridge broke, grounding and setting Are to several cars, besides burn ing about 300 feet of wire. The accident occurred at a time of day when the travel to the Oaks was at Its height, and created an ex traordinary demand for rowboats, launches and other craft with which ' to reach the resort. Traffic was blocked for several hours. structed to prepare an ordinance on the following terms: To run 15 years, cen tral station to be established within three months from granting of fran chise; wires in business district to go under ground; company to build sub stantial station in three years; free tele phones for city officials; use of poles for stringing fire alarm wires; 2 per cent of gross income in three years. The City Attorney will have an ordi nance ready by next meeting of the Council. The telephone company will object to paying a tax on its gross earn ings, but this part may be eliminated. D. C. Rogers, of the Commercial Club, says that St. Johns does not want any enterprise excluded. - MUST FIND GOOD HOME Don't fall to see that beautiful Lewis and Clark Exposition style piano in ele gant massive mottled walnut case.

Dingee Is at the head of the water company, FATHER BLACK IS HOME Tells of Visit to Holy Land and Audience with Pope. Rev. Father J. H. Black, pastor of St. Francis Church, East Eleventh and Oak streets, returned from his trip to the Holy Land and Rome on Saturday, and yesterday conducted services in his church. Father Black had been absent several months, received a most hearty welcome from his congregation, and was kept busy yesterday greeting friends. He first went to the Holy Land, where he spent several weeks making investiga tions among the ruins, which he found highly Interesting and Instructive, and then proceeded to Rome, where he re ceived a personal audience with Pope Plus X. His experience with the Holy Father was the most interesting and important part of his whole tour. He was accorded honors rarely given even the highest dig nitaries of the church. "I was ushered into the presence of the Holy Father," said Rev. Mr. Black, "by a distinguished priest, one who had been my professor at Notre Dame. The Pope was sitting at an ordinary table with a lot of papers, which he was examining. We dropped on our knees, of course. My companion introduced me, when the Pope arose and motioned me to a seat. He was standing, and the thought entered my mind that I could not sit down whll the head of Christendom was standing, so I waited until he was seated. Then fol lowed a most cordial chat. He was most amiable, and the picture of health in body and mind. The papers picture him as afflicted with gout and kindred trou ble, all of which are without foundation. "I presented him with my requests, all of which he gTanted except the last, which he denied with a most gracious smile. Then I asked htm for a blessing for myself and congregation. To my sur prise and gratification, the Pope took two of his recent photographs and wrote the apostolic blessing of myself underneath, and then did the same for St. Francis Church. This was a special favor, and rarely ever granted. I attribute the favor I received at the hands of the Pope from his friendship for our Archbishop Christie." Father Black highly prizes the auto graphic blessing written by the Pope un der his pictures, and esteems It a high and unusual honor for his church. Ar rangements are being made to welcome Rev. Mr. Black back to his charge. Fred erick Goodrich is arranging a musical event in his honor, and Father Dominic Is preparing an ode of welcome to the re turned priest. IDEAL CAMPING TRIP.

Frohman Has Exciting Experiences in the Orient. SANDSTORMS IN CHINA Narrowly Escapes Bubonic Plague Quarantine at Kobe Land of the Chrysanthemum Experiencing Unprecedented Prosperity. f Residents of the Pacific Coast who were in foreign lands did not all escape the earthquake, for under date of April 21 Mrs. I. Frohman writes from Yokohama that she has experienced four shocks, one of them being particularly violent. In ad dition to earthquakes In Yokohama, she went through sand storms in Tientsin and Pekln, a "baby" typhoon on the Yellow Sea. and barely escaped being quarantined at Kobe on account of bubonic plague. "Traveling in China and Japan has Its charms," she writes, "but also its draw backs, and these are a few of them." Commercially, - Japan is thriving as It never thrtwd before, according to Mrs. Frohman, the great flood of tourists who have invaded the empire since the close of the war Bending prices skyward, and creating a great demand for all the prod ucts of the country. "Tourists have bought up everything," she says, "and, strange as it may seem, the Russians are spending millions of dol lars here, buying up everything they can get hold of and placing orders for more. But there is this consolation for the tour istthe things the Russians buy are so hideous that no one else would have them. High Honors Paid Schlff Party. "The Jacob Schift party left here to day, and I am told that the Japanese have never treated foreigners with such especial courtesy and attention. There were launch loads of beautiful flowers sent to them on board their ship, even the Empress sending a basket of wisteria and iris. The Minister of Finance personally sent flowers, and the Imperial officers and all the bankers of the city did the same. The Emperor gave them a private audi ence, and everywhere they were the re cipients of great attention. "During the two months the "Schiffs were here they are said to have spent 50.000 yen for curios, paying 5000 yen for one piece of Jade alone. They bought more jade than anything else. Every one seems crazy for this mineral at present. and I could have sold my own collection several times had I cared to do so. "The Japanese trades people tell me that the reason there are so many tour ists here how Is that foreigners are anx ious to see what kind of people they are since they were victorious in war. They are very proud of the capture of the Rus sian guns, and on the day of the great military and naval review in Tokio they had the 17,000 guns and swords arranged like an immense fence or bulwark. There were 800.000 people assembled on that oc casion. Can you imagine so many people at one gathering? ' Wages Fast Increasing. "Everything is prosperous here, and wages are increasing with the prices of merchandise. The embroiderers are now paid nearly twice what they got last year, and merchants have trouble in filling their immense orders, and, with prices having doubled in one year. It seems that the time for getting cheap curios in Japan is at an end. 'Perhaps you will be Interested In the fact that Japan Is slowly but Burely get ting her clutches on China. While in China I learned from an authentic source that they are gradually discharging all white schoolteachers and employing Jap anese in their places. Since the war with Russia, the Chinese think Japan is the greatest nation in the world, and the Jap anese influence is growing stronger there all the while. The Japanese tell me frank ly that they are going to trade with China in preference to the United States when ever It is possible to do so." Unless Mrs. Frohman Is unfortunate enough to have been caught by another quarantine, she will arrive home next week, having been absent in the Orient five months. LESSONS OF THE ELECTION Dr. Montgomery Cautions Temper ance' People to Remain Vigilant, "A great peril lies in radicalism. Drastic measures are not now called for. A good law has often been ren dered odious by its foolish friends. The result of last Monday's elections is not a vote of confidence, I take It. in any set of temperance men, but rather in the principle that each community should have the right to determine, in a legal and entirely orderly way, whether It will tolerate the saloon." Rev. Andrew Montgomery made the foregoing remark in the course of his sermon yesterday morning on the "Les sons of the Recent Election," at the Third Presbyterian Church, East Side. His talk contained words of caution to the temperance people. Among other things Mr. Montgomery said: "The temperance forces have won a tremendous victory in the defeat of the repealing amendment to the local option law. The plurality against the measure is simply astonishing. No one at work during the campaign was ever sanguine enough to dream of such a vote. But here it is and all the friends of temperance are greatly rejoiced. This decisive result must be Interpreted as a vote of confidence, on the one hand, of the principle of local option. On the other hand it must be considered as a long-overdue rebuke to the liquor interests of this state. For years they have meddled into everything. They have tried to dominate politics to such an extent that the voters have administered this sa lutary lesson. "But there is peril in every victory, and I desire to point out two sources of danger that lie square in front of the temperance people. The first of these is the feeling that victory at the polls is all that is necessary and the end of all struggle. A president of one of our coast colleges told me the other day that whenever his foot ball team gained a victory and then went and Jollified over it, they were Invariably defeated In the next game. Now, if we sit down to nurse the illu sion that the temperance millennium has come in Oregon we are about the worst mistaken people that ever lived, and we will get defeated soundly the next time there is a contest. "This victory is the loudest call for more work that has ever been heard in our fair state. We shall not only have to fight for every inch of ground we may hereafter gain, but there will be a battle to hold our present posi tion. "Furthermore, this victory puts upon the churches of Oregon in the Anti Saloon League the responsibility of educating the people to see that the saloon, as the exponent of the liquor evil, Is an economic wrong, a social evil and a frightful menace to the best interests of humanity." BEETHOVEN CONCERT GIVEN. Second of Special Musical Services at First Congregational. The second of the musical services given at the First Congregational Church was given last night, when Beethoven was the subject. The choir gave five se lections, the quartet giving three, Mr. Rathbone and Mr. Montgomery giving a solo each. The work of the choir and soloists was of the highest order, as well as the work at the organ by A. N. De Vore who was called suddenly to take the placa of Miss Fisher, who has had a nervous breakdown and must rest for a few days. The pastor. Dr. E. L. House gave an interesting address on "The Sorrows of Beethoven," In part he said: "Years ago, Beethoven calling upon a Countess who was in deep sorrow said: 'Today we will talk in music' and then he began to play, and before he had ceased the mother was weeping her first tears since her boy's death. Tonight we are preaching mostly through music, and it is effective as of old. Beethoven was the saddest of composers, although one of the great geniuses of music. The envi ronment of Beethoven was continuous with the dark side of life. His father was a drinking man: his mother an ordi nary woman; his first teacher a hard task master, and his manhood followed by hard circumstances that would have burled in oblivion an ordinary man. Bee thoven's personal appearance was against him. And yet what Mozart said of him came true: 'The world will hear from him.' "The Ninth Symphony of Beethoven is one of the world's masterpieces, and is a marvelous attempt to interpret the mean ing of existence In melodic form. It Is a Samsonian endeavor to wrench the gates of life's mystery from their hinges and to force a way into the heart of the citadel. The many-voiced clamors of that incessant strife which Is ever raging be tween man and the limitations' of his na ture: the fitful gleams of light which play through the rifted cloud: the gather ing shadows, the swelling yearnings, tne bitter defeats, the unconquerable aspira tions, all are uttered with a Titanic mas tery of musical expression. But at last the potencies of Interpretation which sleep in the elements of nature have reached their bound: the soft whisperings of the wild shriek of the strings, the ca ressing carol of the wood, the thrilling blare of the metal, all have become ex hausted. "Then the climax comes. The sound of a human voice is heard. Melody becomes clothed with personality, sound passed into song. The yearning river sinks into the watting bosom of the sea, as with the voice of many waters a mighty chorus pours forth the exultant measures of a hymn of Joy. This hymn Is a parable of life, and no doubt Beethoven so intended it- It might almost be said to be an in terpretation of his own life. Beginning in storm it went on In storm to the end and then in the new world came the hymn of peace." The next In the series will be Gounod, and will be given Sunday evening, June 24. One Little Finn Was Drowned. ABERDEEN. Wash., June 10. (Spea ial.) While five or six little Finnish boys were playing on a plank in the river today the plank was upset and they were thrown into the water.

A bill recently introduced In Congress provides for the drainage of the great "Dismal Swamp" of Virginia, thus ful filling the prophecy made a hundred years ago by General Washington that some day this swamp would be converted into farm lands. This same movement ulti mately looks to the reclamation for farm ing of the hundred- lllion acres of swamp lands in the United States under a "Na tional drainage fund," which will be sim ilar in its purpose but directly opposite in its methods to the National irrigation law. .
