LETTER TELLS OF
31 OTHER, IN IRELAND, DESCRIBES
EVENTS IN MESSAGE TO SON.
Country Overrun by Spies, Moves Si
lently and Quickly l ister Men
and Nationalists Join Forces.
Henry T. Atkinson, former pastor of
the McMinnville M. E. Church, but at
the present time secretary-treasurer
of the Investors' Building Company,
at 308 Lewis building, has received an
interesting letter from his mother in
Ireland, concerning the war situation
and its effects. The "George" re
ferred to in the letter is Mr. Atkin
sons oldest brother, and the "Doro
thy" Is his niece. Following are ex
tracts: "Many of the retired officers have
been called out, including George. The
fact that his call was for home duty
makes me glad, but even Mayme, his
wife, does not know where he is; all
have to take an oath to divulge noth
ing. "The country is full of spies, but,
owing to the secrecy of their move
ments, our troops got away without a
hitch.
"Lord Meath said that he was think
ing of erecting a monument to the
Kaiser, because he had effected a
union between Irishmen north and
south, for now the Ulster volunteers
and the Nationalists are standing
shoulder to shoulder.
"Our rector is held up in Switzer
land, a neutral country, whither he
had gone for a vacation. Dorothy has
volunteered as nurse and the govern
ment has assured her that her po
sition will be kept open for her when
the war is over.
"On the way to the North Wall,
when the Lancers were leaving (their
horses having been put on board dur
ing the day) the troops extended four
deep from the extreme end of the
North Wall to Grattan bridge at Four
Courts. As the troops went on board
at evening all the ships saluted, but
the noise of their sirens was more
like a requiem than anything else.
"One young officer had just been
married and his young wife marched
all the way beside him, weeping; this
was only one of very many sad scenes.
The Prince of Wales relief fund has
reached far over a million pounds. All
eligible horses have been bought, but
the government will not take white
horses and on this account we have
heard that a few unpatriotic persons
have whitewashed their horses In or
der to save them.
"T wonder how much news you get
and if It is all true. Because of fear of
spies, which are numerous, nothing Is
told here until it is done."
IMPORTANT LIFE INSUR
ANCE APPOINTMENT.
A matter of much Interest to life
insurance men will be the announce
ment that Mr. Joseph H. Gray has
been appointed supervisor of agents in
the State of Oregon for the Columbia
Life & Trust Company.
In speaking of the matter. Mr. S. P.
Lockwood, the vice-president and gen
eral manager of the company, ex
pressed his gratification at securing
the services of Mr. Gray for this very
important work.
The new appointee has spent all his
business life in insurance, having en

1896, and serving for 15 years with

That the war is being severely felt
In South America is evidenced from the
letter, under date of August 12. just re
ceived by M. O. Nelson, manager of the
Cherry Park Development Company,
Troutdale, Or., from his brother. Justus
H. Nelson, a medical missionary in
Para, Brazil. He writes:
"The topic of highest interest here
in all circles Is the European war. The
effects of the wir are being felt from
top to bottom of the Brazilian nation.
The first thing that touched the people
was the rise in the price of articles
Imported from Europe, such as pota
toes, cheese, condensed milk, and from
the United States such as flour, kero
sene, etc. For a few days we supposed
that we should have no more English
or German shipping from anywhere,
but the English vessels are now ad
vertised to run regularly both to Eu
rope and New Tork. The German ves
sels are waiting orders, apparently
afraid to venture out. The last Ger
man steamer which arrived here a few
days ago sailed the last part of the
voyage with lights out at night and
flying the Brazilian flag by day. so it is
reported.
"The Brazilian government received
a tremendous shock In its finances when
war was declared In Europe. The gov
ernment is'hard up for money, and was
negotiating a loan with a combination
of English, French and German bank
ers. The loan was almost a settled
matter when war was declared,
and that ended the loan business,
ers. and that ended the loan business.
The surprise was so great, in order that
the Brazilian government might keep
on its feet and gain time to make some
other plan for meeting itB liabilities,
the President, Hermes de Fonseca, de
creed the next 13 days to be holidays
I in which it should be illegal to bring
suit for collection of debts or do
anything else not permitted on holi
days, except the administration of gov
ernment and ordinary commerce. Banks
are closed; no rates of exchange are
published; the courts of justice are
closed; there Is nothing doing in the
custom-house; business In general has
come almost to a standstill, although
most business houses are open. The
forced holidays will be over on the 17th
inst. We do not know what the gov
ernment will do to meet Its pressing
need for money. It probably will issue
unredeemable paper money, which prob
ably will run exchange down.
"The feeling against Germany, as
most to blame for the war's having
taken on such large proportions, is be
coming quite general, and the popular
feeling has today been greatly aroused
by telegrams relating the killing of
Brazilians at Stuttgart and Berlin. I
suppose that the telegrams will be con
tradicted tomorrow, but the people be
lieve the stories and are impatient to
take revenge. Tonight, while I have
been writing, about 75 men in citizens'
clothes marched past the door armed
with guns, marching to the sound of a
drum almost at double quick step. I
have no idea of what they Intend to do,
but it looks like an attempt to slepeat
what was perpetrated at Sao Paulo yes
terday in an attack on the German con
sulate there. The morning papers will
tell all tomorrow."
HOTELMAN J3IVES SELF UP
9 O-Day Sentence for Vagrancy Is
Begun After Two Years.
Harry Harris, north-end hotelman,
surrendered to the police yesterday and
began serving a 90-day rockpile sen
tence. Harris was convicted of va
grancy in Municipal Court July 12, 1912.
He and his former partner, John Par
ker, were alleged to have been extort
ing money from underworld characters
when the plot was nipped by Captain
of Detectives Baty.
Parker and, Harris and a score of
others were arrested during the inves
tigation. Several forfeited bail and dis
appeared. Parker appealed . and the
Supreme Court affirmed his sentence.
He completed serving his sentence last
May. Harris likewise appealed and
when bondsmen complained of the risk
yesterday, Harris went to the police
station and asked to serve his sentence
immediately.
Dr. James Makes Statement.
"The article that appeared in The
Oregonian September 2, with reference
to a 'Doctor' Frank D. James, an em
ploye of the Rosarian Cafeteria, who
was arrested charged with theft of sil
verware and groceries, has done me an
injustice, as I am the only physician in
Portland by the name of James," said
Dr. R. F. James in the Morgan building,
yesterday. "So far as I can learn the
