REPRESENT GREAT CAPITAL William Rockefeller, Brother of John D., Member or Distinguished Party That Spends Daj in the City. Three special cars brought to Portland yesterday men Tepresentlng an aggregate of over Jl.ono.OOO.OOO. They formed the party brought here by A. J. Earling, pres ident of the Chicago. Milwaukee A St. Paul. In his special train that arrived at the Union Depot at 3:9 o'clock yesterday arternoon. In addition to Mr. Karllng. the party included William Rockefeller, brother of John D., and his two sons. William G. and Percy. The visit of the party to Portland is highly significant, although none of the capitalists, who are all directors of the St. Paul, would admit it. Never yet has President arllng admitted that his road will be built to Portland. But the coming here of a large and powerful part of his directorate, coupled with the four visits of Mr. Earling himself during the past three years, shows that Portland Is one of the objective points of the transconti nental line now being built to the Pacific Coast. Immediately upon arrival here, the party was taken out in three automobiles for a trip about the city that Included the terminal sites of the railroads now en tering the city, and possible terminal loca tions along the river. It' was Mr. Earl lng's object to point out to his directors the available locations here for terminals with no other possible purpose than to choose the best remaining facilities in that direction for nis own road. Train Leaves for South. This trip occupied all the remainder of tire afternoon and at sunset the visitors returned to their special train, where din ner was served. Shortly after 7 o'clock the Earling special pulled out for San Francisco. The train was made up of William Rockefeller's private car, the Oenesta. which is one of the most splen didly appointed priva'j cars on wheels, the combination sleeper. "Ontonagon." the dining-car Xegoosa," and a baggage coach. The rarty Includes the following A. J. Earling and wife. William Rockefel ler and wife; William G. Rockefeller and wife. Percy Rockefeller. W. P. Bliss, Henry Cooper. New York: Major T. 3. Bond. New London. Conn.; J. Pettlt. pres ident Wisconsin National Bank, Milwau kee, E. W. McKenna, Chicago, all direc tors of the St. Paul and men of large wealth: William G. and Percy Rockefeller being sons of William Rockefeller, who Is a brother of John D. Rockefeller. H. R. Williams, of Seattle, president of the Chi cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul In Washing ton, accompanied the party to Portland. The visitors have Just completed a trip along the St. Paul road now under con structlon to the Coast and while in the - Puget Sound cities made a side trip to Mount Rainier. They expressed satisfac tion at the progress being made on the building of the line and President Earling said St. Paul trains will be running to Puget Sound some time next year. Just when he could not say. William Rockefeller, about whom inter est centers as one of the richest families In America, is an old man. cautious and secretive in habit and reserved in his manner. Pleased With Trip West. "Yes. I am one of 'em." he answered when approached by a reporter and asked 1f he were Mr. jioekefeller. He talked of bis trip to the Coast In pleasant fashion and showed his Interest In Portland. He appeared relieved that he was not asked for money. "This is my first trip to the Pacific Northwest," he said. "We have been for tunate In having good weather. It seems unusually warm and Summery here to day. I am enjoying this trip very much. .By the way. what is the .population of Portland?" When he was told It was well over 200. ftD. he expressed surprise at the manner in which the cities of the Pacific North west have been built up. Mr. Rockefeller Is a gray old man. his hair and mustache being almost white. His head Is con stantly a-tremhle from some nervous affection and ell his money does not seem to make him very happy. In Seattle he gave the bellboys at his hotel 25 cents each but he escaped such extravagance while in Portland for he did not stop at the hotels. Mr. Earling would not say anything worth while, in regard to his railroad entering Portland. He has been chary of Interviewers on his present trip, prob ably lest his directors who are along might think he talked too much. He took occasion, however, while in Seattle to deny the reported purchase of the Ta coma A Eastern Railroad, which has been generally accepted forthe past two years on what appears to have been suf ficient grounds and his tardy denial will hardly change the opinion of those here who have been assured of the purchase. As to building to Portland. President Earling would say nothing. Even In re gard to the Puget Sound line he did not talk much, saying he was careful of making predictions of what his road is going to do, preferring, he said, to let the work of the company speak for itself. That his company will build to Portland Just as soon as the line to Puget Sound Is finished and satisfactory arrangements can be made for entering this city. Is known to be the Intention of the 9t. Paul. The party of visitors was met at the Union Depot by H. S. Rowe. general sgent here for the company, and by J. V. O'Brien, who shook hands with Mr. Earling. whom he knows well, and Mr. Rockefeller, to whom he was Introduced by Mr. Earling. After chatting with them a few moments, he returned to his office while the party hurried away In their automobiles for a spin about Portland. The Earling special la one of the tlnest trains.

O'Brien, general manager of the Harrlman lines in this territory. R. B. Miller, general freight agent for the same lines, and E. B. Lytle. president of the Pacific Railway & Navigation Company, the line now building into Tillamook, will leave the city this morning in Mr. O'Brien's car, "Oregon," for a trip into the country about to be opened up by the new Lytle road. The party will go to Hillsboro over the West Side division of the Southern Pa cific, where the railroaders will take a team and drive along the rou'e of the new railroad to Tillamook. They expect to be away from the city about four days and will make a careful inspection of the country to be openeJ up and of Its traffic possibilities. Mr. O'Brien has never been Into the Tillamook district as yet. PLATS SHOW WIDE STREET East Side Club Considers Improve ment of Albina Avenue. Plats of Albina avenue between Prescott street and Swlnton. where it Is proposed to widen thA avenue to 70 feet, were shown Monday night at the meeting of the North Albina Push Club, resulting in extended discussion. These plats showed the present narrow and somewhat crooked condition of Albina avenue, in contrast with its appearance when widened. The first movement was to widen the avenue from Goldsmith street, in Lower Albina, but opposi tion was encountered, and hence Pres cott street was adopted ae the south ern line. After discussion the matter 71 PHOTOGRAPH OP THE STEAMER HUMBOLDT, TAKEN AT XOtlK, ALASKA. was laid over one week for further consideration. . f Bv resolution, the club opposed ae- ceptance by the city of the lighting terms of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company. The sense of the meeting was that under no considera tion should the city accept the terms of the company, but that It should take immediate steps to establish and oper ate Its own lighting plant. A resolution was adopted asking the county to gravel Patton avenue be tween Klllingsworth avenue and the Willamette boulevard, a distance of one block, so as to provide an improved street connection with the pavement on Klllingsworth avenue and the Willam ette boulevard. A committee was ap pointed to bring the matter before the Counts-Court PREACHER STILL MISSING However, Llule Vneasiness Is Felt for Rev. G. F. Houghton. No trace has yet been found of Rev. G. F. Houghton, an aged Methodist preacher who dropped from sight Sep- tember'18, in this city. W hile some un easiness was felt on his account at first, there Is arrowing sentiment that the old man has gone off on his own account and may return or may not. He had been staying at the home of Rev. C. W. Pogue, at Bridal ell. He left there September 15. saying he was going to the Methodist conference at Salem. Rev. Mr. Houghton came to Portland, his trunk was called for, but he failed to show up at the conference. There Is no clew to his whereabouts at this time. Although he had represented himself as a man of great wealth it is said by those who know him that he had little. He made a tender of $5000 to the new church under construction at Twenty Sixth and Savler streets, but the money is unpaid and the result may be finan cial difficulties of a formidable nature. The police have been notified, but have done nothing in the matter. G00DPIAN0S. What is the use of wearing a $3 hat when $3 will buy a $5 hat?

WHISKY IS FORBIDDEN Stevedore Firms Succeed in Havi ins Clause Inserted W hich Will Pre vent Men From Drinking While on Duty. With the committee of the Portland Chamber of Commerce as sponsor, repre sentatives of the stevedoring firms as -J parties of the first part and a committee of the Longshoremen's Union, Local .No. 6, parties of the second part, an agree ment was signed yesterday afternoon whereby vessels will be handled at this port for a period of two years, regardless of labor troubles in any other port. The effect of the settlement of the differences between employers and employes will be far-reaching and will put Portland on a better basis than any other Coast port. The contract which was signed yester day has been under consideration since September 1. The sticking point was clause No. 18, which was agreed to yes terday. The rule reads as follows: & Kule Regarding Liquor. No employe shall take on board of any vessel or on- the wharf adjacent, where a vessel is loaded, any Intoxicating liquor or beverage. An employe violating this rule shall be discharged and a substitute em ployed. Said discharged employe shall be prohibited from working on that vessel as a punishment for such violation, and such employe shall be disciplined by the party of the second part In such a manner as that this rule shall not be again vioiatea by mm. It has been the custom of men working on ships In Portland to take liquor on board and to drink, sometimes to excess. during the working hours. Through the efforts of W. J. Jones, local manager of the Brown & McCabe Company, incorpor ated, the above clause was inserted in the contract which was agreed to septem ber 3 at the joint meeting in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce. The long shoremen filed an objection and the steve doring firms refused to sign. Results of Secret Meeting. Shortly afterward the longshoremen held a convention In Portland which was attended bv representatives from all locals on the Coast. The conclave was held behind closed doors and It was not until yesterday morning that the results of the meeting were made . known. The plan to amalgamate all unions on the Coast was adopted ana xuu power was STEAMER INTELLIGENCE. Due to Arrive. Name. From. Date. Breakwater. .Coos Bay In port Slate of Cal. .

The plan to engage in the co-operative stevedoring business was turned down. Members decided to remain with the old firms during the life of any con tracts which were in force or should be signed during the present grain season. The signing of the contract yesterday was at variance with the resolutions adopted at the meeting last week. Xo Sympathetic Strikes. Tim .occt i nr ftf th rnnt ro ft vhfith on vitally affects Portland exporters and the stevedoring firms is as follows: The party of the second part agrees to do on the Columbia and Willamette Rivera dur ing the time mentioned in this agreement and iot to engage in any sympathetic strike, except where the grain handlers of Portland are directly, involved. This clause, which wao the original bone of contention, will permit the working of craft of the American & Hawaiian Steamship Company, regard less of labor conditions on Puget Sound or in California ports. ' During July and August labor conditions were bad on the Sound and local longshoremen is sued an ultimatum to the effect that vessels loaded in part at either Seattle or Tacoma would not be handled in Portland. The Chamber of Commerce Intervened and succeeded in settling the matter between tevedores and men. barring the liquor clause. Lumber exporters, loading at St. John or Linn ton, will be greatly benefited by the new agreement and schedule. Heretofore men have demanded either half or a whole day's pay for any frac tion of a day put in. Under the new arrangement, men will not be paid un til the hour of arriving at the work, and in case of being laid off at any time prior to a regular hour for knock ing off, --they will receive only one hour's additional pay. Wage Scale the Same. The scale of wages agreed to is prac tically that which has prevailed In this port for several years. "With the ex ception of lumber and wheat in large sacks, all discharging and loading shall be paid for at the rate of 55 cente an hour, overtime $1 an hour. Lumber shall be paid for at the rate of 50 cents an hour, and 76 cents for overtime. Wheat In large sacks calls for 60 cents each hour and overtime the same as general cargo. "Signing of the contract between stevedores and longshoremen is a great thing for Portland," said W. J. Jones yesterday. "The insertion of the liquor clause I consider to be the greatest thing of all. The taking of whisky on board ships is bad. That stands to rea son, when vessels loading at other ports can take 20 per cent more grain In a given time than can be loaded at Portland with the same number of men. Portland Is now on a better footing than any port on the Pacific Coast." TWO GRAIXSHIPS CLEAR Norwegian Slilp Vigo Carries Full Cargo of Barley. Grain shipments, foreign, for the month of September have passed the 2,0CO,00- bushel mark. Wheat exports amount to 1.4S7.005 bushels; barley, 299.938 bushels; flour, 50,723 barrels. Reducing the flour to a wheat basis the total grain shipments will total 2.015,401 bushels. September shipments were swelled yes terday by the clearance of the Norwegian ship Vigo, for Queenstown or Falmouth for orders with 71,813 bushels of barley, valued at $60,323, and the Dutch steamship Nederland, which carried 208,840 bushels of wheat, valued at $191,200 for St. Vin cent for orders. Today the British steam ship Magdala will finieh and will get away with a quarter of a million bushels of wheat, which will bring exports up to a record-breaking figure. An immense amount of tonnage has reached Portland during the month ending today nd shippers have been exerting every effort to dispatch the vessels as rapidly as possible. The wheat has not been coming as fast as necessary and as a result two of the sailing vessels which should have figured In the September list have been held up. Railroads were not prepared , to meet the extraordinary de mand of September shipments from the Columbia River. : STEAMSHIPS CHANGE TIME Slate of California Will Sail Friday Afternoon Instead or Saturday. The steamship State of California will sail for San Francisco Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock instead of Saturday morning at 9. Orders for the change of schedule were received yesterday morning by J. W. Ransom, ljcal agent of the San Francisco & Portland Steamship Company and the JJtate will be the first vessel out of Portland to be effected. During the Summer months the steam ers of this line have been sailing from Portland Saturday mornings at 9 o'clock. This was done in order to give passengers the daylight run down the Columbia. The Winter schedule will give masters a little more leeway. F. D. Williams Visits Portland. F. D. Williams, assistant superintendent of water lines for the Southern Pacific Company, is in Portland on business con nected with the company. Mr. Williams Is connected with the office of Superin tendent MacKenzie and on the occasion of his present visit to Portland will make a trip to Coos Bay on the Breakwater in or der to inspect company property. Fukui Maru Brings Hardwood Logs The Japanese steamship Fukui Maru, from Hakodate, arrived up yesterday with a million and a half feet of hardwood logs. The vessel moored at Banfield s dock, where the Japanese oak will be dis charged. The craft made a fairly good passage across the Pacific and did not en counter any heavy weather. She is not under charter for outward loading. Marine Notes. The steamship Breakwater will sail for Coos Bay ports this evening. Jerry" Dailey, of the San Francisco Merchants' Exchange, is visiting In Port land. The British ship Wynnstay, shifted from the stream to the Elevator dock yesterday afternoon.

OFFICERS MET BY CURSES Mayor Also Comes in for Share of Profanity Talk of Camp Outside City Order to Be Thoroughly Carried Out by Police. Portland's gilded cages must be vacated at once. The 200 odd members of the demimonde must do one of. three things: forsake their craven ways and haunts, leave the city, or go to jail. There will be no alternatives. Two police detectives spent all of yes terday In the bad-lands north of Burn side street notifying the nefarious ones' of their impending fate. Luxuriously ap pointed places on Seventh street received the same visitation that did the disreputable-looking dives in what Is known as the bad-lands proper. Profanity Greets Officers. The edict, a result of the Mayor's plan of ridding the city of these public un desirables, was nowhere met with calm ness. Painted women swore at Sergeant Detective Tom Kay, leader of the moral squad who had charge of the work. In the dives many of the women blamed the officers for the closing, for he has long since apparently typified the op position to their class. In the more ex pensively appointed establishments the Mayor was derided and the move was branded as a political play, the coinci dence of the closing order with the neap approach of city - election time being called attention to with many a flourish of feminine invective. Must Be Good or Leave Town. Women who wanted to argue the matter and abuse the officers were left talking to thin air. Those who wanted information as to what would become of them were given facts as to what would be expected of them. They were told that they were at liberty to remain in the city so long as they conducted them selves in the manner of decent people. Otherwise they would have to leave town or accept quarters at the City Jail. In variably the response would be an oath or exclamation of disgust. Plainly the inmates of the bad-lands didn't take kindly or to heart the latest scheme for their reformation. May Form Camp in Environs. From now until next Tuesday the. bad- 1 lands earl go on in Its accustomed way. Weird music and drunken revelry may continue rampant as has been customary during the years of Mayor Lane's occupancy of office and during the time he has been evolving In his mind the present scheme 'of re form. The dawn of Tuesday will be the signal for the beginning of the end. Bacchus must then take his pennant down and either roll it up for good or else carry it to other fields. There is talk of establishing a camp on tne out skirts of the city. As to this camp of iniquity nothing definite has been done as yet. But it may be attempted. Investors Would Finance Scheme. Much depends on what attitude the ( county might take. The state law would reach these people no matter wnat re mote section of the state they might flee to. There lias been much talk of such a place and there are investors to put up the figures necessary to finance tho proposition, it is said, but whether the idea will be carried out remains to be seen. Just at this time the city is flush, with the demimonde. They have been ar riving on every train from Salt Lake, where such a crusade was made against them that they could not re main. In that municipality the crusade 'was made by Sheriff finery, in enforce ment of the state laws, i Salt Lake Sheriff Does Work.. The Salt Lake Sheriff did the work in person with the help of a deputy or two. He notified every woman in town to leave and those that didn't obey were promptly thrown in jail. Chief Gritz macher, of the Portland Police Depart ment, Insists that It will take the entire force of ten additional policemen, the hiring of which has already been author ized.

Since Its discovery one year ago, poslam, the new skin remedy, has. In Its extraordinary accomplishments, ex ceeded the most sanguine expectations of the eminent specialist who gave it to the world. It has cured thousands of cases of eczema and eradicated facial and other disfigurements of years' standing. The terrible Itching attend ing eczema is stopped with the first ap plication, giving proof of its curative properties at the very outset. In less serious skin affections, such as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads, acne, barber's itch, etc., results show after an overnight application, only a small quantity being required to effect a cure. Those who use poslam for these minor skin troubles can now avail themselves of the special 60-cent pack age recently adopted to meet such needs. Both the 50-cent package and th"? regular $2 jar may now be ob tained in Portland at the Skidmore Drug Co., and other" leading drugstores.

THE WORK OF A SPECIALIST IS THE DOING OK A FEW THINGS .BEST There is not a physician living who can claim to be proficient in the treatment of all human ailments and diseases. To attain the highest possible degree of proficiency in all departments of medical science would require half a dozen lifetimes of study and as many more of practical experience. The regular practitioner is proficient in a large number of the commonest and most feasily conquered diseases.

Since it takes two officers only a few hours to make the rounds of the bad lands, it is hinted that ten officers are likely to find themselves falling over one another. Chief Gritzmacher insists, however, that the additional help will be useful in checking up on the women after they leave their accustomed haunts. If they go to rooming or boarding-houses he intends, as per instructions from the Mayor, to have his detectives observe their conduct and see to It that they re main in the ways of righteousness.
