THE MORNING OKKGONIAX. FRIDAY, AUGUST 10, .1906. 5 DEMOCRATS ill GO TO SEE Oregon Delegation Will Be Present at the New York Reception. ' DOZEN WILL BE IN PARTY Governor Chamberlain May Lead the Oregon Patriots Who Will Jour ney East to Greet Their Chieftain. With Governor Chamberlain possibly at the head of a large representation of Ore gon Xeraocrat3 will be among the thou sands to welcome William J. Bryan when he lands in New York the latter part of this month. There will be a dozen or more in the party that will go from Port land and Oregon,' and It is planned to have all the larger cities of tne state rep resented In the delegation. Among those who are considering be coming members of the party are: Gov- ernor Chamberlain. Alex S-week, Portland; Will R. King, Ontario; W. F. Butcher, Baker City; J. H. Baley, Pendleton; John H, Smith. Astoria; M. A. Miller, Ijebanon; J. D. Matlock, Eugene, and J. L. Booth, of Grant's Pass. Governor Chamberlain has not as yet given his decision as to whether he will accompany the party. It Is probable that nearly all of the others mentioned will be present at New York to hail the chief tain upon his arrival in this country after his around-the-world tour. Frederick v. Holman, the Democratic National com mitteeman, will be unable to make the trip, much to his regret. Mr. Holman is legal counsel for the Portland General Electric Company, and the death of O. F. Paxton makes it impossible for him to be absent from the city. The party planned to leave Portland next Monday, as the date for the mon ster reception to be given In honor of the Democratic idol had first been set for August 20. Dispatches from the East, however, state that Bryan will not arrive before the last of the month, and the Oregon Democrats will arrange the date of their departure accordingly. Every state in the Union will be repre sented at the Bryan reception, or at least that is the plan of the Democratic lead ers. Oregon Democrats are anxious that their state be represented by a creditable delegation, and for some time have been arranging their plans. Governor Cham berlain, Mr. Holman and Mr. Sweek, chairman of the Democratic State Cen tral Committee, and other Democrats, re ceived letters from Louis Nixon, chair man of the reception committee at New York, inviting a representation from Ore gon. Correspondence has been carried on with the prominent Democrats in differ ent parts of the state, and the partial list of those who it is believed will compose the party was compiled. 1 FRUITS J. E. HIGGINS, HORTICULTURIST AT HONOLULU, VISITS CITY, Exploits Tropical Products and Ex pects to Introduce Them In Markets of Pacifiq Coast. Fruits from Hawaii, particularly the alligator pear and the papaia, are to be Introduced to the people of Portland. Both varieties are delicious In flavor and contain many medicinal properties. For this purpose J. B. Higgins, horticul turist of the Hawaii Agricultural Experi ment Station at Honolulu, arrived in the city yesterday with several tons of the fruits. Today samples of the pear and papalas will be served at the regular luncheon to members of the Commercial Club. Until the supply Is exhausted these products of the Hawaiian Islands will be on sale at the fruit stores of Portland. These two fruits grow in abundance In the islands. For some reason, princi pally because the impression has pre vailed that they could not be shipped to advantage, neither the pear nor the pa paia nag nan a market In this country. People in the Inlands have imagined that the fruit would not stand the long jour ney from Honolulu to the Coast. This, however, has proven to be untrue. It is this mission that has brought Mr. Higgins to Portland. He will introduce the fruits among the people and devise ways and means whereby the shipments can be made regularly In the future to all cities near the shores of the Pacific ocean. The shipment which he brought with him arrived here in perfect condi tion, although the fruits were picked 12 days ago. From Honolulu to San Fran cisco the samples were kept In cold stor age, but since then they have been given no special care. Mr. Higgins Is also Investigating the best methods to be used In packing the rears and papalas. He will determine whether the fruits will stand the trip nest in cold storage on the decks of the Ktcamers where they will have the benetlt of the open air. Also whether rice hulls or crimped strawboard will furnish the best results for packing. Papaia. pronounced pa-pai-a. Is one of the greatest fruits In the world for the human stomach. It Is rich in vegetable pepsin and aids digestion In a number of ways. All parts of the papaia tree con tain a certain amount of pepsin. The reople of Hawaii have a habit when they get a tough beefsteak of wrapping it in papaia leaves overnight. The next morn ing It is tender as the finest sirloin to be had in the market. The meat absorbs the pepsin from the leaves and as a result becomes tender. There are a number of varieties of papaia. From one kind an extract of the vegetable pepsin Is taken and put up in tablets and may bo had for Indigestion In any drugstore In all parts of the world. The papaia grows on trees and Is as large as a good-sized cantaloupe. Mark Twain, who at one time lived in Hono lulu, once said of the papaia that it looked like the American pumpkin grow ing on a tree. Mr. Clemens, however, was a great admirer of the fruit and ate it for breakfast every morning during his stay In the Islands. Papaia can best be eaten with a little sugar or straight, or flavored with lemon juice to suit the taste. It is an elegant dish when cooked and can also be made into a sherbet. One of the treats at the table during a trip across the Pacific Ocean Is the papaia. which Is served on the Oriental and Australian boats after leaving Honolulu, where a large supply Is always taken on board. Papaia trees bear the year round. The alligator pear, avocado or palta pear It is sometimes known by all three names also grows on a tree, but only during the Summer months. Horticulturists are trying to do away with the name alligator . in connec tion with the pear, claiming that -it la somewhat of a drawback R R YAN f erring to have the fruit known as the palta pear. This pear has a delicious fla vor and is a healthful food. It Is pre eminently a salad fruit, or may be eaten with salt and pepper, vinegar or with French salad dressing. The people of the islands use the pear a great deal as a dessert. It Is particularly nutritious and has the flavor somewhat of a walnut. Another reason for Mr. Higgins' visit to the Coast is to Investigate the pine apple trade between the state cities and the Islands where the apple is grown in great abundance. The Hawaiian pine apple Is considered to be among the finest In the world. The pineapple exports from Hawaii have rot been Just what they should be and Mr. Higgins will try to de termine upon a remedy to stimulate the business. Many canning concerns have factories at Honolulu or at nearby points and put up the pineapples which are shipped all over the world. England, and in fact all Europe, buys most of these products each year. Mr. Higgins also has several samples of the Brazilian or apple banana among his collection. This is a small fruit and the people of the Island believe will ap peal to the fancy trade In this country. The apple banana possesses a certain agreeable acid flavor and will be intro duced in the markets of the Coast cities. Mr. Higgins has lived at Honolulu eight years. He will remain here several days, after which he will go to Seattle. The Hawaii station Is- a branch of the United States Department of Agriculture. MAX PRACHT STILL ALIVE Wants Screens to Keep Insects Out of Open Street-Cars. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Aug. 7. Max Pracht, of Oregon (and there's only one Max Pracht In the world), dearly loves to see his name In print. The time was when it appeared frequently in the days men Max was a special agent of the Land Office and kept himself in hot water because of friction with headquarters In ' Washington. But lately Max has been holding down an Inconspicuous desk in the Treasury De partment, and his work Is not such as to bring him in the limelight. A year ago Max tired of the simple life, so he tried to lift a Washington street-car off the track, with disastrous results for Max. Then he got a little notoriety and a black eye. But a year Is about as long as Max can remain in seclusion. His year was up last week, so he bethought him to take a trolley ride out to one of Washington s famous suburbs. The ride furnished him with the wherewithal to break Into print and be availed himself of the opportu nity. The day following the ride Max hied himself to the sanctum of the Washington Post with his tale of woe, and this Is the way that paper dished him up. It reads as If Max had written it himself: Flying- Insects, beating- against the back of fcls neck as he sat in the front seat of a suburban street-car resulted In a mild case of blood poisoning to Max Pracht.- Mr. Pracht recently spent the evening at an up-river resort, and when returning home was obliged to sit on the first seat inside the car, facing the rear. The road runs for quite a distance through a dense wood, and the speed of the car caused a current of air to enter through . the open window In front, driving the Insects violently against his neck. The following morning Mr. Pracht found his neck raw and blistered, and his physi cian promptly told him it had the effects of blood poisoning. After continuous treatment for several days the Infected spot became better and is now almost welL Mr. Pracht said last night: "With the car making spurts of 40 miles an nour. the In sects pelted my neck and kept me busy brushing them oft. They were dead as a rule, the impact being so great as to kill them outright. 'I am convinced it is dangerous to zide on the Inside front seat facing the rear. To close the front windows of the car to protect the passengers situated as I was is Im practicable the passengers further aft would rebel. 'I think that fine wire screens that would sift out the mosquitoes, galllnippers, alli gators and mock turtles might be put in. in default of that plan, a bottle of listerine or some other remedy might be hung up la some convenient Bpot, where passengers with Insect-burned skins could apply it." RAFFERTY UNDER ARREST Pittsburg Millionaire's Son in Jail for Swindling at Washington. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. G. R. Raf ferty, 28 years old, has been arrested here and locked up on the charge of ob taining money by false pretenses. He is accused of passing worthless checks here. He claims to be the son of Gilbert F. Rafferty, of Pittsburg, millionaire coke manufacturer, and Is the husband of the woman who but a few days ago sued the elder Rafferty for JSOO.OOO for alienating the son's affections. Major Crawford Slightly Hurt. WASHINGTON. Aug. 9. Major Samuel Crawford, of the Philippine constabulary, who was one of the officers reported to have been fired upon by hostile Igorrotes In Northern Luzon a few days ago, was not seriously Injured. A dispatch re ceived by the Bureau of Insular Affairs today from Manila. In answer to Inquiries about Major Crawford, stated that he was struck In the wrist by an arrow, but suffered only a Blight wound. He is from Erie, Pa. "OREGON vs. ALL COMERS A Baseball Game for the Benefit of Home In dustry First Prize Essay by Clarence Bloom. CLARENCE BLOOM, of East Forty eighth and Belmont streets, Port land, won the first prize in the "Made in Oregon" essay contest. His essay fol lows: When one looks upon the things that are "Made In Oregon" and considers them individually, the result is similar to that of an experienced boy who tried to watch, an exciting ball game through a knot hole in the fence. At the first hole he could see a part of the players, but not all Then at the next hole he could see some of the players he had seen at the iirst hole, and also a certain part of the field that he had viewed before. At the third hole he could see the man at bat strike the ball with a force that sent it soaring in a way that 'promised a "home-run:' but here the boy was again handicapped he could not see the fielders from his position, and a man inside the fence obstructed his view of ''first-base." We look at the lumber Industry In Oregon, and we are amazed at its manu factures in the state for the year 1900. The figures $11,743,702.00 mean but little tn us they are so large that we are unable to grasp fully their import. From the knot-hole we can see agri culture, dairying, fruit-growing and stock-raising, and by looking around we see that they are all In the same game as those we saw in looking through the first hole, namely, the developing of the Commonwealth of Oregon into the best state in the Union. It is the beginning of the second In ning now; Oregon is at bat. See that fellow on second? That is the manufac turer "On third," did you say? Why. that Is the grower, because he always comes first in the batting list you must have material before you can manufac- UBut then his score doesn't count for any more than the next man. I cannot see who Is on first I'll wager it Is the consumer. I should say It was about time he was playing ball we have been trying to get him away from the Eastern leagues for a long time, but he only plavs practice games with us. Don't you think that fellow ought to move, so we could see who Is on first? Oh. well. I know It must be the consumer. pre-because that is an .Eastern manufacturer BOLT IRS VICTORY Shea Secures Re-Election, but Seceders Hold Out. RIVAL UNION ORGANIZED Slate Goes Through, at Teamsters Convention, While Bolters Join Disqualified Delegates in Opening War in Trade. CHICAGO, Aug. 9. Cornelius P. Shea was elected? to succeed himself as presi dent of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters In the convention of that body here today. The delegates who bolted yesterday continued to absent themselves and took no part In the election. The vote for President stood 158 for Shea and 15 for John White, of New York. The entire ticket named or approved by Bhea went through without any serious oppo sition. C. F. O'Neill, of Buffalo, and J. Geary, of St. Paul, were made vice-presidents and James Welch, of New Orleans, and John Longstreet, of Cincinnati, were elected trustees. The other offices went to Chicago men. The victory won by Shea Is marred only by the dissension which led to the with drawal yesterday of nearly 60 delegates and the launching of a movement to or ganize a rival International union. The secession movement was kept alive today by a number of Shea's enemies who have enlisted the disaualifled delegates from New York, San Francisco and St. Louis and declare they will elect officers of their own and try to undermine the old organization. Overtures were ignored by the bolters. who proceeded to organize a convention of their own and planned to adopt by laws and a constitution. They Insisted that they would never be reconciled to the rule of President Shea. Shea's convention listened to reports of officers as a preliminary to the elec tion. Secretary Hughes' report showed the organization had gained in memDer- ship from 46,000 at the beginning of his term to 58,000. Albert Dijeau, the San Francisco representative, whose creden tials were under question, was seated. FOOD FAMINE THREATENS CITY Strike of Tugboat Men Blocks New York Ferries. NEW YORK, Aug. 9. An attempt made late today to adjust the differences be tween six railroad companies having ter minals In this city and the crews of the railroad tugboats operating In New York harbor ended In a failure. The repre sentatives of the Central Railroad of New Jersey, the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western the Erie, the Baltimore & Ohio, the New York Central and the Lehigh Valley Railroads, which were most seri ously affected by the strike, declined to accede to the demands of the striking crews for an increase of from $5 to $10 a month, and declared that they would fill the places or the strikers with new men. The movement of freight of the roads named from their terminals In New Jer sey and Staten Island to New York City was badly crippled, and many carloads were stalled in the yards on the west bank of the Hudson River. Not more than one-third of arriving freight crossed the river. It is feared that, if the strike continues, there will be a heavy loss to shippers of fruits and vegetables and other perishable freight. There is already a scarcity of these commodities. The Pennsylvania, and New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroads are not af fected. Switchmen on New Haven Road Out. BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Aug. 8. The strike of the yard switchmen of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad at New Haven spread to this city, when most of the local switchmen went out in sympathy. The strike at New Haven was called in protest against the alleged un just discharge of several of the members of the Trainmen's Union for their failure to pass certain rigid tests Imposed by the company. Building Strike in Pittsburg. PITTSBURG, Aug. 9. A sympathetic strike movement, begun ten days ago by Pittsburg branch of the Structural Trades Alliance to aid the carpenters against the employment of nonunion men, has spread so that many large building operations have been stopped.

RUNS PACIFIC IRRIGATION Henny'a Territory Extended to In- elude Nearly All California. OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Aug. 7. D. C. Henny, of the United States reclamation service, has been officially designated as supervising engineer for California, ' excepting that portion of the southern part of the state including the Colorado River and Yuma project, which has been assigned to L. C. Hill, supervising engineer for Arizona, and the Owens Valley under L. H. Taylor, supervising engineer for Nevada. Mr. Henny now has charge practically or tne entire Pacific Coast area, lnclud ing the States of Washington, Oregon and California. This change was brought aDout by the resignation of J. B. Llppin- cott supervising engineer for California and the Klamath Irrigation project lying partly In Oregon. Mr. Henny is a graduate of the Gov ernment Polytechnic School, Delft, Hol land. He was engaged for several years In reclamation work and railroad location in Holland and has been engaged in rail road construction In Iowa; in water woris construction In various Eastern states in railroad construction In Colorado bridge work In Missouri; tunnel construc tion. New York, and in many other Im portant positions throughout the United States. Both the reclamation service and the states to which his services have been assigned are to be congratulated on the possession of one of the finest en gineers In the country. His headquarters at present are at Portland, Or. EXCLUDE NEWSPAPER MEN President of Pan-American Confer ence Makes Order Press Resents, RIO DB JANEIRO, Aug. 9. (Special.) Trouble was created at today's session of the Pan-American Conference by the an nouncement of President Nabuco to the effect that newspapers reporting the pro. ceedlngs would be excluded whenever there was political or diplomatic- discus sion that might bring on a heated debate. Senor de Asslz Brazil, Secretary-General, In presenting the matter, spoke rather slightingly of the press. Local Journalists were highly indignant and withdrew from tne conference. The afternoon papers hotly attacked Senors Nabuco and De Assiz Brasil, and also brought their anger to bear against the conference itself. The morning papers are also preparing to make things lively for the two Brazilian representatives, who hold high rank in the diplomatic service, Senor Nabuco be. ing Ambassador to the United States and Senor De Assiz Brazil, Minister of Argen tina. If President Nabuco persists In his de termination to exclude the newspaper men every time there Is the likelihood of warm debate, the result will probably be that the newspapers will make general at tacks upon the conference. The action seems to be entirely due to the personal initiative of the Brazilians. The American delegates were consulted by no one on the subject. Wilson on Secret Inspection Tour. WASHINGTON. Aug. 9. Secretary Wil son, of the Agricultural Department, has left Washington, presumably on a tour of Inspection of meat packing-houses, but no Information of his whereabouts Is available at the. department.

The DallesLXJT- NTENDEDNQCRliyiE Interstate Commission on Mor ton's Rebating. STATES VIEWS OF CASE Says Santa To Continued Old Prac tice "Which Elkins Law Made Illegal Company Has Paid Heavy Penalty. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. In a state ment Issued by the Interstate Com merce Commission today regarding the conviction In the Federal Court of New Mexico of the Atchison. To peka & Santa Fe Railway Company for violating the law with regard to the giving of, rebates, the commission says: "The avowed purpose ot the practice of (rebating to the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company) tends to support the view that there was no criminal in tent on .the part of Paul Morton, ex Secretary of the Navy and former head of the traffic department of the Santa Fe, and the other railroad officials in volved. The statement calls attention to the fact that with the Imposition of the $15,000 fine on the railroad 'the history of the famous Santa Fe rebate case is practically closed,' and praises President Roosevelt and Attorney-General Moody for carrying out with suc cess the Administration's declared pur. pose to enforce the statute in all such cases. Regarding the criticism which followed the refusal of the Adminis tration to prosecute Mr. Morton, the statement says: Only Technical Violation. Too much praise cannot be given to Attorney-General Moody in carrying this case through to a successful termination, and that, too, after the adverse -criticism in many Journals because of the refusal of the Ad ministration to undertake the prosecution of Paul Morton, t'nen Secretary of the Navy, and formerly head of the traffic department of the Santa Fe system. The Attorney-General, in disagreeing wltb Messrs. Harmon and Judson, who bad been employed by the Government to make a preliminary investi gation, acted plainly with foreknowledge of the legal difficulties that attended every step la the attempted prosecution of Mr. Morton and other officials In this peculiar case, which really grew out of a long-standing practice intended primarily to develop the coal industry in Colorado and New Mex ico, which really did have that effect, and which, only became conspicuously unlawful after the passage of the Elkins law In 1003, and the courageous investigation and re port of the facts by the Interstate Com merce Commission to the Attorney-General. There was a technical violation of the law Involved In the transaction, as has al ways been plain, but that there was crim inal intent on the part of Mr. Morton and the other officials involved has always been denied; and the avowed purpose of the prac tice tends to support that view. Convicted and Had to Pay. Further on the statement says: It will be remembered that the Depart ment ot Justice first sought to use this case and others in the Kansas City Federal Court to establish contempt on the part of the Santa Fe, which was then under Injunction Issued in omnibus form and covering all trafflo against that carrier and numerous other carriers engaged largely in carrying grain, grain products, livestock and livestock products, on account ot rebates shown to have been granted generally on such trarno in a former investigation by the Interstate Commerce Commission. This attempt to establish contempt by showing rebates on coal failed, the court holding that a general injunction could not lawfully Issue. Later on, a civil case brought against the Santa Fe by coal mining companies discriminated against in favor of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company was settled by the payment of something like a half-million dollars, and now has followed the conviction, as above stated, of the railway companies and the Fuel & Iron Company.
