Speculator Confirms Reported Re tirement From Business, but Re fuses to Say He Will Give Up Game of Making "Corners.", NEW YORK, March 18. James A. Patten, tiie speculator, who arrived from Liverpool last night, explained In detail his "booing" on the Manchester exchange. "There was no violence of--fered me," he said. "The story has traveled 3000 miles and I understand that the further a story travels the bigger It grows. Here is the truth of the Incident: "In the first place, the Manchester exchange is not a cotton exchange ex clusively, but a general board of trade, to which merchants of every variety be long. I was escorted on the floor of the exchange by James Brown, one of the oldest and largest cotton spin ners of Great Britain. I noticed that the crowd looked me over rather curi ously, as if to see whether I had horns or not. "Then I heard cries of too, which I did not in the least understand, until by physical pressure it was borne in on me that the crowd meant to push me out of the exchange. We were jos tled and pressed for about 75 feet, I should say, before we turned to the door of our own volition and walked shouting 'Yankee!' "Mr. Brown led me across the street into a private office. where later prominent members of the exchange and several large exporters called on me to express their regrets. "To understand the action of the the membership, so far as the cotton mills are concerned, is largely made up of factory managers, and that these managers in great part are raw Lanca shire and Yorkshire men who never have had any commercial training or any contact with the outside world of affairs. They know how to run the mills and that is all. . "Therefore, when many of the mills were forced to close down by the high prices of cotton, these managers, in formed only by the newspapers, attrib uted the depression in the trade to me exclusively. I attach no significance to the incident and I hold no ill-feeling whatsoever." Mr. Patten confirmed his approaching retirement from business, which already has been announced. The firm of Bart lett. Patten & Co. would be managed, he said, by the junior partners, though -he still would hold stock in the com pany. Asked if he had also withdrawn for good and all from speculation, Mr. Pat ten smiled wisely and answered: "Did vou ask Mr. Morgan and Mr. Rocke feller?" LUCK MEETS FISHERMEN Sudden Run of Salmon Trout Re joices Seaside Dwellers. SEASipE, Or.. March 18. (Special.) The run of had luck experienced by fishermen on the Necanicum changed with a rush yesterday afternoon and evening and this morning, and the lucky anglers have not yet finished ex citedly discussing the marvel. The salmon trout have absolutely re fused to bite, whatever the bait used. Yesterday afternoon every angler on the river caught full baskets of brook trout. The run of salmon trout did not start until the evening, when the ascending high tide brought them up to the Seaside House. Just below Sea side riffles every angler caught almost as many salmon trout as he could carry in an hour. The biggest basket was obtained-fey Sam Lee, who came home with 17 beauties, one of which was 19 inches long. All the fishermen used angle worms as bait, salmon eggs apparently not proving attractive to the fishy palates. There is no fly fishing as yet.

His horses had just passed beneath the east guard arm of the crossing when S. W. Burkhart. the tower man, observed an approaching switch en gine. Burkhart immediately threw the levers and lowered the arms of the semaphore on both sides of the track, trapping Howell and his sweeper be tween. The horses driven by Howell took fright with the approach of the switch engine and plunged madly across the railroad tracks. The en gine bore down upon Howell and his runaway team, but the pilot only struck the rear wheels of the sweeper. The frightened animals continued on their dash across the tracks, dragging How ell and. the dismantled sweeper after them. In their freny the horses ran against the arm on the west side of the track and snapped it off in the middle. Howell still clung t- the reins and remained on the seat until the broken guard arm struck him with vio lent force in the abdomen- and hurled him unconscious to the ground. Patrolman Hennessy captured the runaway horses and found Howell ly ing beside the tracks. He sent the injured man to the hospital in a Red Cross ambulance. It is feared he is Internally injured. 0' REFEREE FORCED TO STOP FIGHT IX THIRD ROUND. Anderson Strong In Second, When O'Brien Is Floored Preliminary Causes Much Enthusiasm.

In the second round Anderson came back strong and knocked down O'Brien, who regained his feet. Both exchanged blows, Anderson getting one on the nose. In the third round, O'Brien started strong and with a vicious swing knocked down Anderson, who stood up but fell over the rope and hung there, O'Brien above him raining in blows. Referee Bud Smith stopped the bout. Anderson was all right in a few min utes. As a preliminary, Frank Rusch, of Iowa, threw J. Frankfort two straight falls. James and Joseph Carroll, brothers gave a good three-round boxing exhibi tion. Referee Smith's nose was punched accidentally until it bled in breaking the boxers from a clinch. Ed Whitman, of Portland. 128 pounds, and Floyd Mclrwin, 140, went four fast rounds. Both showed good form, though Whitman is more experienced. The bout between Plummer Ellis and A. J.

In a pretty red bathing suit and a cap of the same color perched Jauntily on her auburn hair, Miss Ross emerged from a dressing house north of Pa cific pier and, running down to the water, stuck one toe in gingerly. Just then a wave waist-high struck 'her and the ice was broken. After that the young lady, who did not appear more than 20 years old, had a glorious time In the surf. Although there were no life lines, Miss Ross ventured out some distance from shore, time and again being washed back by the rollers. After en joying a good swim, she emerged and expressed her opinion of those who lacked the courage to go in. She said the water was not cold, the only chill being in the air before and after she went into the surf.

Davis, treasurer; R. L, Ray, general man Crowned - by Little Miss Schnabel, Oregon's Grand Old Man 'Gives Sage Advice to Young Lawyers on Dignity of Profession. With head bowed in emotio'h and tears of gratitude trickling down his cheeks. Judge George H. Williams Thurs day night was crowned with a laurel wreath by a legion of his admiring le gal associates and acclaimed "the great est man in the State of Oregon" at the banquet of the Multnomah Bar Associ ation at the Commercial Club. The , emblem of high regard was placed on the brow of the venerable jurist by little Miss Kathrine Schnabel. daughter of C. J. Schnabel, president of the association. As a benediction to the impressive incident, the ban quetters joined in singing "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow." The dinner, which was given un der the auspices of the Multnomah Bar Association in honor of Judge Williams and the members of the Ore gon Supreme Court, was the first time the full membership of the Appellate Court and the state Circuit Court of this county were brought together in a social way with the members of the bar. Included among the guests also were several of the other circuit Judges from throughout the state. In all about 250 attended the dinner. Nestor of Bar Speaks. But for an unsteady step, there was nothing in the appearance of Judge Williams to support the fact that this was the first time In six months or since he submitted to a surgical operation, that he had left his home after nightfall. His entrance to the banquet hall, supported by President Schnabel, of the association, and Lionel R. Webster, ex-county judge, who' acted as toastmaster, was applauded vigor ously. Principal of the speakers at the din ner. Judge Williams responded to the toast, "Nestor of the Oregon Bar," fol lowing an eloquent presentation by Judge Webster. Judge Williams re lated that he had been a member of the legal profession for 66 years and for 10 years of that period had pre sided as judge. From 1847 to 1853 he was district judge in the State of Iowa and for Ave years was chief jus tice of the territorial government In this state. "By reason of this experience," said Judge Williams, "I believe I know something of the duties and responsi bilities of the lawyer and the Judge. I believe our profession compares fa vorably with, any other, not excepting the clerical profession." Young Lawyers Counseled. As a father would advise his son. Judge Williams urged the members of the bar to do all in their power to ele vate the profession of which they were members, remarking that the higher the young practitioner places the goal of his ambition, the greater will be his attainment. He spoke, of the impor tant relation of the lawyer and the courts to organized society and urged upon the citizen the need for a greater respect and consideration for all con stituted authority. "Lawyers and Judges do more," said Judge Williams, "in the formation, in terpretation and enforcement of laws than do all other classes of citizens combined. Every member of the bar and judge should recognize and feel that he shares that responsibility. In dustry, energy, fidelity to client and high moral character are the only pass ports to success in the legal ' profes sion." V 'It is not enough, said the speaker, that the judge should be a man learned in the law." He should Also be a man of strong moral fiber, having the courage of his convictions. The judge did not think there was any danger that Judges in their decisions would be Influenced by selfish and mercenary considerations, but he did express the fear that these of ficers might be influenced at times by popular clamor, which was sometimes called "pub-ic opinion." "As the Nestor of the legal profession in this state," said Judge Williams in concluding hi? remarks, "it is my desire to pee the profession increase in wisdom, infli:ence and moral worth. I desire to see the profession in this state compare favorably with that in our sister Mates and become the strong right arm of the Government in the administration of gov ernment according to the laws of the land." Supreme Court's Work Grows. Speaking for the Supreme Court, Asso ciate Justice McBrlde reviewed briefly the history of that tribunal, which dates from August 20. 1849. when its first for mal session was held at ' Oregon City. It was an interesting coincidence that the first written report of the Appellate Court's- findings, in any ca93 which was preserved, was a decision vrltten by Judge, Williams. Judge McBride spoke of the Increase of business coming before the Supreme Court, the number of appeals having in creased from J67 In 1904 ,to 230 last year; while it was predicted that the number of appeals this year would reach 260. Among the other speakers were: United States Jud&e Bean, Circuit Judge Gatens and County Judge Cleeton. The banquet was enlivened by the perpetration of good-natured Jests, of which prominent members of the bench and bar were the victims. The committee responsible for this part of the programme consisted of Roger B. Sinnott, Charles J. Schnabel, John F. Cahalin, W. C. Bristol and C. G. Murphy. . In addition to Judge Williams, the fol lowing Judges and prominent members of the bar were among those seated at the head table: United States Judges Bean and Wolverton, Supreme Court Judges Moore.

The failure of Gov ernor Brown, of Georgia, to introduce him to an Atlanta audience Wednesday night,, his reference to the commander in an interview as a "faker," and the small crowd that attended the lecture brought forth an announcement from the Civic Forum in New York, last night, under whose auspices Peary is lecturing, that his plans have been changed. The announcement says: "The Civic Forum has found it ad visable to cancel all of Commander Peary's Southern lecture dates owing to the desire to avoid any evidence of coldness toward Commander Peary.
