Take Up Option on Ma jority of Stock. $1,000,000 IS PAID OVER New Owners Plan Big Improve ments, Including Change of Ground I'loor and Use of Court Bowers to Stay. Xegotiatlona were . closed Tuesday for tile transfer of the majority of stock in the Portland Hotel, which was purchased by Ben. and William Nor man, of Spokane, and by Harry and Kufrene Day, of the Coeur d'Alene mining- district, at approximately 900, 000. There are 4965 shares of the stock of the hotel company outstanding1, and of these 95 per cent was taken over by the new owners at $190 a share. The purchasers have also deposited in the first National Bank the required amount of money to purchase any other shares of outstanding stock which the holders may care to sell. Announcement -was made last- night by William Norman that H. C. Bowers, the present manager o( the hotel, would be retained at the head of the cara vansary and would be elected as a di rector of the company at a meeting of the stockholders, to be held this morn ing". Air. Norman also "announced that he will tpend the next several weeks in furthering plans for improving- the ground-flopr frontage of the hotel, to make it into-renting property,- to in- j crease me aivicienas. 'ines immediate J Improvements, he . estimated, may cost t between $150,000 and $250,000. ' 1 K'iil Begun Four Months -Ago. The deal was closed at 4 o'clock yes terday afternoon. Norman Bros, se cured a four months' option on the hotel stock last October. Last Sat urday Ben Norman appeared with less than half the money raised and asked for an extension on the option. This was refused by the .Corbett estate, wners of the majority of the stock, and Mr. Norman, returning to Spokane, managed' to secure the full amount just j In time. ' Wednesday night William and Ben ; Norman, Eugene and Harry Day, A. F. , McCleane. president and one of the j largest stockholders of the Traders National jiank of Spokane; Thomrfs H. Brewer, vice-president and one of the largest stockholders of the Exchange National Bank of Spokane, and Charles VV. Beall, of Wallace, Idaho, counsel for Day Bros., came to Portland, carrying with them, in certified checks and banknotes, the $1,000,000 necessary to take up the options on the stock and deposit enough additional in the banks here to pay for the stock which us as yet outstanding. Money Changes Hands. This money was paid over yesterday afternoon and the stock was delivered. Mr. Norman said last night that every penny of the money had been raised in Kpokane and that it was collected in E4 hours. "I wish to deny emphatically that here has been any bad feeling between .. .. Mr. Corbett and ourselves," said Will lam Norman. . "The deal is atf plain business one. brought to a suecesful conclusion, and the Corbett estate did not put any difficulties in our way. If we had not succeeded in taking up x the option that would have been an end of the deal, but there has been no fric tion. "As for the hotel, we are more than pleased with our bargain. We do not Intend to purchase any other hotels. We have always wanted to be in Port land and to have the Portland Hotel, because it has a commanding position here and is situated on a piece of real estate which makes it doubly valua ble. Big Improvement Planned. "It is this real estate valuation that v I intend to develop. I already see many opportunities to Increase returns on the ; property. First of all we will tear out j the ground floor frontage and put in stores there. We have always developed ! our street frontage and we intend to ! improve the Portland Hotel along lines which will astonish the city. Of course, we will do something with that court. It is too valuable to waste and we will change it in some way to increase the room space of the hotel. "We are often asked if we intend :to- buy a hotel in Seattle. I can say posi tively 'no.' We want a hotel centrally located. That is what we believe we ha,ve here, while in Seattle there is no hotel located in the heart of the business dis trict." Bowers Is to Stay. AVitta the change of ownership of the hotel minor changes in the management of the hotel may be brought about. Mr. Norman said last night, however, that 11. C. Bowers would be given absolute authority. It is probable that the hotel altera ( tions will not bo undertaken until next Summer That a Portland architect would set the contract Is the assurance given by the new owners. The big deal will not go on record as a real estate transaction in Multnomah County. There has been no change in the title to the property. The Hotel Company still owns the property, unen cumbered by any mortgage, and the transfer represents simply sale of the greater part of the stock. The new owners are W. S. Norman, Ben Norman, Harry 1 Day. Kugone K. Day, Mrs. Ed ward Boyce, formerly Eleanor B. Day, Mrs. Robert 31. Kllis. formerly Blanch Day. and Jerome J. Day, of Moscow, Ida-. William S. Norman, as well as his brother Ben, Is a native of Englarfd. He was one of the pioneer mining and busi ness men of the Coner d'Alene and Boundary districts. Norman Bros, own the Hotel Spokane. Hotel Yakima, and .Hotel Taconm. as well as valuable real 'estate throughout Washington. Harry 1 and Eugene Day, immediate representatives of the Day family inter ests in the Portland deal, are types of sturdy Western business men, their suc - cess being Interwoven with the history of th Hercules mine, one of the famous silvtT lead properties of the Coner d'Alene mining district and known as the richest mine of its kind on earth. The mine was originally located by Harry Day in ISS9 and in 1901 the great strike was made which made the property one of the biggest dividend-payers in the world. LANGF0RD IS THE LOSER Ucferee Hives Decision After Ten Rounds to Klynn. I.09 ANGELES. Feb. . Jim Flynn not only stayed through ten rounds of tierce lighting with Sam Langford here tonight, but won. the. newspaper deoisiim over the colored man, "Charles Eyton. who refereed the contest, said after leaving the ring, that Flynn had the better of the fight from start to finish. Flynn went after Langford like a demon in the first round-and had Mm backing up until pressed against the ropes. Lang ford fought his way back to the center of the ring and squaring hims-alf. put a right on Flynn's cheek, that brought blood. Flynn crouched low throughout the fight and repeatedly rushed into clinches. In the second round Flynn caught Lang ford in the center of the ring and wrestled him to the floor. Lang-ford was up instantly, fighting back, but in this exchange at close quarters, as in all the others which followed, Flynn seemed to have the better of the in-fighting and gave Langford no chance to - back away. He landed right and left repeatedly to Larigford'e face. The fourth, fifth and sixth rounds were .all Flynn's. . It was in the seventh round that Flynn. after receiving a hard right on the neck, retaliated with a right straight from the shoulder which landed on Langford's sore eye. Langford's long arms were going like flails. Flynn had learned how to crouch and cover his head, and he wa still in his fighting mood.- After a clinch in the ninth Flynn sent Langford's head back to a butting match until the- end of the round. They rushed furiously at the beginning of the tenth and Langford was forced to break ground. TheGround ended, without Lang ford having had" an opportunity toland any of his famous right-hand swings. Throughout the - fight. .Referee By-ton was repeately torced to separate the two men. MR. GRAY COMES HOME BUSINESS MAX RETURN'S FROM TRIP TO NEW YORK. Gotham's Cafes and Theaters, lie Says, Are Crowded Nightly, and loney Is Easy. R M. Gray, a well-known Portland busi ness man, returned from an extended business trip to New York yesterday. "Portland never looked better to me n my life, and it compares well with the best of them," said Mr. Gray. Tliat- the country never appeared as prosperous as now and that there Is a general feeling of optimism among the substantial business interests in New York, was'thjB statement of Mr. Gray. "I was closely observant of business conditions during the whole of my stay in New York he continued, "and I am in the belief that the country is enjoying right now the greatest season of pros perity thus far in its history. New York is crowded with strangers. The streets are filled with taxicabs and automobiles, and thecafes nightly have an extrava gant patronage- It is almost impossible to get a ticket to any of the big theaters under three weeks in advance. "Right here I wish to register a kick against the system of selling theater tickets in New York. Before 6 o'clock in the evening it is Impossible to buy tickets to any of the larger houses unless through the .Tyson syndicate, which sells for all and charges about 25 per cent commission to the purchaser for doing it. I was impressed with the extravagance everywhere in evidence. I am inclined to agree with James J. Hill that high living is partially responsible for the high cost of living. I never saw it more pronounced during all the years of my semi-annual visits to the Ka-st. "Occasionally there is a little flurry in Wall street, but I am told the substantial and legitimate business interests pay lit tle or no attention to them. There are also rumors that an attempt will be made to punish President Taft for some of his policies, but it is not taken seri ously. "I wajS surprised for this season in view of the general impression concerning the results of the new tariff law. There is little advance in prices. "I found, too, that there is much more of common sense in the designs of both men and women's clothing for this1 year. I think the-y are much prettier and I am sure the buying public will be pleased."

The proceedings yesterday were the outcome of disputed "claims that amount to less than $30,000 and negotiations are on to settle. Only recently the re-port was current that a syndicate of creditors intended to bring suit for $1,000,000 against Prince Miguel, the claim being set up that he had refused to pay, to the syndicate, for borrowed money, one-fifth of the dowry of his marriage to Mies Stewart, which amounted to $5,000,000.

Rolling Green School, near Colton, I Is without a teacher, as the result of trou ble in the school. Melvin . Crumbaker, the teacher, has "resigned" at the request of the directors, whom he accuses of hav ing locked him out of the schoolhouse after he had trouble with the pupils in a rough and tumble fight. The trouble, as told by the pupils, the neighbors and Mr. Crumbaker, shows that the teacher emerged from the fight with torn clothes, broken eyeglasses and nu merous bruises. Phoebe Mclnturff, a girl of 14, daughter of A. R. Meln,turff, direc tor and clerk of the district, is given credit for putting the teacher, a well built man, down and out. Crumbaker said he had undertaken to whip one of the kids ot a director, and they jumped on to me in a rough manner." ' A. R. Mclnturff asserts the school children all say that Mr. Crumbaker seized Clyde Mclnturff by the collar, jerked him out and threatened him. Phoebe, fearing her brother would be seriously injured, seized the teacher by the hair, which is long and curly, and getting both hands well fastened in his locks, proceeded to wool him around. Then Clyde took a hand, the teacher was thrown to the floor and "roughed," the pupils cheering their classmates to vic tory. ( The fight was reported to the directors, A. R. Mclnturff, Levy Wiggins and Sam uel Uillgards, who held an investigation and decided that the teacher's "days of usefulness werft nvpr." Mr rmmhakAr rwent to Colfax to consult with County fauperintendent Mattoon and upon his re turn was refused admittance to the schoolhouse.

Children Bear First Husband's Patronym, She Known as Mrs. Seaman, Complications Follow. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 9. Special.) Mrs. Bessie Hume Seaman, former wifeof Joseph Hume, known along the entire Pacific Coast as the "Salmon King.' today filed an application with the Superior Court to be allowed to change her name to Mrs. Bessie Hums. She gives as her reason the fact that she had three children by Hume and inasmuch as they bear the name of her first husband and she the name of her second, the result is embarrassing. Her marriage to Joseph Hume took place in 1893. The three children are: Helen, aged 13; Edith, aged 11, and Chauncey, aged 15. In April of 1901, she declares, her husband died, leaving a large estate in which she is a bene ficiary. In 19Qfi she married Seaman and ac companied him on a tour of the world. In the tour, less than a year after the marriage. Seaman died. Mrs. Seaman says that because of her bearing his name it is difficult for her to make herself known among old friends and business associates, who know her only as Mrs. Hume. She also asserts that old friends have considerable difficulty in locating her by her present name. DRINKING CUPS BANNED Madison, Wis., Prohibits Common Use of Infectious Receptacle. - MADISON, Wis., Feb. 9. The com mon drinking cup must go in Wiscon sin. Its doom was sealed by the State Board of Health at a recent meeting in this city.

CONFESSION IS PUNISHED Ioiva Decision. Penalizes Saloon Man Who Agrees to Injunction. DES IMOISTES. Feb. 9. The Iowa Su preme Court today decided that an in junction against the illegal sale of liquor, but not asainst the property, is valid; that a saloonkeeper who -con-Bents to the injunction admits that ha was maintaining a nuisance; that the lawful sale of liquor is not a nuisance, and that those who violate the decree to which they agree are guilty of con tempt of court and are barred for five years from engaging in the liquor busi ness. The decision in effect declares that by agreeing to an injunction a saloon keeper admits himself a lawbreaker and loses his right to engage in busi ness. DEFENDS FAIRBANKS' ACT Methodist Episcopal Prelate Replies to Archbishop Ireland. NEW YORK, Feb. 9. Rev, Joseph C. Hartzell, Methodist-Episcopal bishop of Africa, made a spirited reply in New Tork last night to Archbishop Ireland's de nunciation of methods of the Methodist Church in Home, which was prompted, by the Fairbanks incident. Archbishop Ireland's specific attack upon what he terms 'the Methodist Asso ciation' in Rome is unjust." said Bishop Hartzell. "But his heated verbiage will not de cieve the American people or the Protest ant world. The simple fact is that the Roman Catholic Church accepts the pres ence of any other church organization in Rome and Italy only because it is com pelled to do so by the law of the land. "Another well-known fact is that, de spite the laws of Italy, Rome does not believe in religious liberty and, wher ever it has the power, forbids it." Bishop Hartzell said Archbishop Ireland sought to cover up the real issue involved in the incident in which ex-Vice-President Fairbanks, "so nobly stood for, his rights to address a Methodist ' congrega tion in Rome, even if in so doing the Pope saw fit to give so distinct an illus tration of the seemingly unchangeable purpose of the Roman Catholic Church to refuse proper recognition of all branches of the Christian Church outside of itself.'' RACE RIOT KILLS THREE WHITES AND BLACKS CLASH IN TENNESSEE COUNTY. Negro Preacher and Rltigleader of Rioters Meets Death Others ' Flee to Mountains. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Feb. 9. In a pitched battle between whites and ne groes at Hale's Bar, this morning, three negroes were shot to death. One was "Daddy" Baker, negro preacher and ring leader of the black rioters. All night 40 unarmed white men "bluffed" off an attack of the 200 armed negroes. Barricades had been erected which looked to the enemy sufficiently threatening to Inspire fear. Helpless women and children were thus protected from the attack loudly threat ened by the negroes. At any time before the arrival of the squad of police the negroes could have captured the white camp. But they did not know it. At daybreak, when the first shot was fired, a fusillade followed, and the crack of rifles did not cease until the negro camp had been vacated and every weapon that could be found in a negro's hand or house had been seized. The negroes had fled, carrying with them what of their effects they could, but leaving behind them the- three dead bodies. HENRY L.

Prevention of trouble rather than expensive ways to fix up after the trouble has happened is what you want. And that is the Franklin method. Reliable tire equipment instead of extra tires is our plan. , - The proportion of jre size and strength to the automobile is purely a mechanical question, subject to exactly the same treatment as construction questions in any other part of the automobile ; i. e., the tires should be large-enough and strong enough, with mar gin to spare, to do the work. Light and flexible, the Franklin is easy on any - tires it has always been noted for that and now all Franklin models with their large wheels have, extra large tires so that tire trouble is not a factor. The Franklin tire equipment is so reliable that it is not necessary to carry extra tires. Remember that extra tires are carried because of . blow-outs and not because of punctures. Ordinary tire equipment is ruined by blow-outs. Proper equipment does not blow out. The tireswearout. You do not want your tires to break down or burst. You want their full life and service. You get this with the Franklin. The tires give service for more than double the mileage of the average automobile. , The time to take care of tire trouble and insure economy in tire expense is when you select your auto mobile. The way to do that is to buy a Franklin. No other automobile offers similar advantages.
