DOINGS OF TH E REIGN OF TERROR IN DURANGO Current Events of Interest Gathered From the World at Large. General Resume of Important Events Presented In Condensed Form for Our Busy Readers. The Steel trust has readjusted its schedule of prices by a considerable reduction. A French liner arrived at Martin ique from Panama with 15 cases of yellow fever on board. Diaz succeeded in getting $1,780, 000 in gold from Mexico safely into a bank in New York City. A Portland woman will have to pay $3,000 duties on diamonds inherited from an aunt who died in Germany. Officers of the United Wireless com pany have been found guilty of Using the mails to defraud in selling stock. Betting on accidents and death in the auto races at Indianapolis, In diana, is the most prominent feature of the meet. Fire destroyed the Chutes amuse ment park buildings at San Francisco causing the death of four persons and injury of many others. In a decision more drastic than that against the Standard Oil company, the Supreme court of the United' States, has ordered the dissolution of the To- bacco trust. An American - Hawaiian steamer just arrived in Seattle reports having picked up the submarine bell signals from Umatilla reef lightship at a dis tance of seven and one-half miles. which enabled the ship to proceed safely through a dense fog. A hot wave sent the mercury at Chicago up to 94. President Diaz resigns and the City of Mexico goes wild with joy. Portugal has rushed troops to the frontier and all monarchists are being arrested. ' The Wyoming, Uncle Sam's largest battleship, was successfully launched at Philadelphia. The dissolution of the Standard Oil company will not result in any reduc- tion in the price of oil products to the consumer. Mexican Rebels, Beyond Control, Burn, Loot and Murder. Parral, Mexico, May 29. Many Federal officials, including jefes polit icos, have been killed, scores of others have been put in jail, stores have been looted and hundreds of people are on the verge of starvation as the result of a reign of terror, waged in the state of Durango and Southern Chi huahua by a band of insurrectos who have heard nothing of the peace agree ment. The entire state of Durango, with its capital, a city of 22,000 peo ple, is at the mercy of roving bands, who have unsettled all the regularly constituted authorities. The worst feature is that all com munication has been cut off for weeks and the country, being a non-agricultural region, is without food. The mining camps of Ganacivi, state of Durango, are in chaos. The first act of the insurrectos after charging a town was to place all the government officials in jail. Stores were then looted and governent docu ments burned. Thomas Urdina, who claims to be the insurrecto commander of the "Southern Zone," was informed that Madero was perfecting peace plans. He answered he would dictate the peace terms for his territory, and the looting continued. In the town of V ilia tscobedo, a few miles south of here, the munici pal buildings were burned, all the res idents having fled to the mountains A previous report that all govern ment and municipal officials in certain towns had been killed has been con firmed. Robert J. Swazie, an American planter in Michocoan, was killed by a band of insurrectos; his ranch house burned and his wife probably carried off by marauders, as she disappeared the night of her husband's murder, James Mclntyre, an American miner, was held up and robbed by a band of Mexicans near Ahuijudla After they secured about $200 from Mclntyre, the Mexicans decided to kill him and promptly filled him with lead. Dr. George D. Rich, an American physician at Colima, received word of Mclntyre's fate. A battle is reported at Acapulco in which 83 Federals and an unknown number of rebels were killed. Shipping at the Mexican Pacific ports is at a standstill andTgreat diffi culty is being experienced in loading and discharging by vessels the various ports of stop. TRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE REGION GROWS FAST. Southern Oregon Is Rapidly Develop ing Varied Industries. Grants Pass That Southern Ore gon, with its varied resources, is mak ing greater strides than any other section of the state, is the belief of II. L. Herzinger, a member of the city council of Grants Pass. Fruit raising, alfalfa growing and mining are some of the chief resources, which are being developed rapidly. With a large amount of foreign cap ital being- attracted to the district, the City of Grants Pass is feeling the effect of the development of the sur rounding country and a large munici pal improvement programme is being contemplated, declared Mr. Herzinger. Mr. Herzinger has been in Grants Pass more than four years and in that time has seen Josephine county grow from a sparsely settled district into a prosperous community. "The Rogue River Valley, in which Grants Pass is the center, has become famous for its pears, grapes and ap ples, " said Mr. Herzinger. "Devel opment along this line is just in its infancy. The people of Grants Pass and vicinity have raised funds for the construction of a concrete dam across the Rogue River three miles above the city. Water will be stored by this dam to supply water to irrigate 50,000 acres of fertile fruit land on either side of the river above and below Grants Pass. This large area will be utilized for the growing of fruits. The people of the community dem onstrated that they were wide-awake when they subscribed in two hours HUGHES FOR COMMISSIONER. W calling at ALFALFA IS HUMAN DIET. Senator Borah believes there should be a Federal incorporation law fixing the retail price of goods sold by inter state corporations. A wealthy San Francisco couple have a prize ring at their home where they entertain their friends with exhi bitions by noted pugilists. An eagle attacked an aviator during his night and came near causing disas- ter. The bird was finally driven off by being wounded by a revolver shot. PORTLAND MARKETS.

Farmer at Spray Proposes to Can Roots for Table Use. Portland, Or. Alfalfa now has reached such a stage of development that it can be used for human con sumption at least the roots of it can. C. F. Waters, an enterprising farmer residing near Spray, Or., has complet ed experiments that convince him that the roots of the ordinary commercial alfalfa plant can be treated so that they will be readily edible as well as highly nourishing and palatable. He has arranged to construct a large building for canning alfalfa roots and expects to offer his product to the trade within the present year. The roots can be taken from the ground after the crops of several sea sons have been harvested, so that the plant is given an added value. Mr. Waters declares that by proper treat ment the clever housewife can con vert canned alfalfa roots into a var iety of tempting dishes, which can be served either as a vegetable or as dessert. $70,000 for the construction of th railroad from Grants Pass to the fam ous marble caves. This group of caves forms one of the natural wonders of Oregon. The railroad will tap one 0 the finest timber belts in the state and will supply transportation to the al falfa districts along the Applegat and Williams rivers. "in addition to the Horticultural re sources 01 Josephine county, mining development is going ahead on a large scale. Ihe Higgins and Anderson strikes in the old Kirby districts on the Illinois river are causing much ex citement. These properties seem to be alive with precious metal. I be lieve if they were remote from trans portation and difficult of access, we would have a stampede to the camp But, it seems, they are too near home to cause a rush. Mining experts be lieve that some of the newly discov ered claims bear tin ore in paying quantities. LEAGUE TO DEVELOP LAKE. Land Four Killed in Train Wreck. Charlotte, N. C. A double-header coal train on the Seaboard Airline went through the trestle seven miles east of Bostick Monday, killing both engineers and firemen. The trestle was weakened by fire which the first engineer did not see and gave way with the weight of the engines. Fif teen of the 29 loaded steel cars crashed into Wallaces creek, piling up on the two engines and burying the helpless victims in the wreckage. Traffic will be completely blocked until the bridge can be rebuilt. Peruvian Flag Burned. Iquiqui, Chile A mob attacked the Peruvian club and burned the flag of Peru Sunday. Troops were summoned to quell the noting and several per sons were wounded. The Peruvian consul has resigned and has asked the American consul to protect Peruvian interests at this place. The action of the mob and the rioting that followed were the result of publications in the newspapers that the Chilean consul had been attacked at Callao and wounded. Local Clubs to Be Organized; Still Open to Entry. Lakeview The Lake county devel opment league is the name of the new organization that succeeds the Lake- view board of trade and which will bend its energies toward development of the entire county and peopling the large areas of government lands open to homestead and other entry. The new organization is composed of rep resentative citizens of Lakeview and it will be their endeavor to interest citizens of the other portions of the county. It is believed that with the coming of the Nevada-California-Oregon railway, which will be at Lake- view this year, and the contemplated completion of lines into the north end of the county, Lake will receive a great impetus. Goose Lake valley has 100,000 acres of fertile land awaiting the plow, some of which can be homesteaded. War ner Valley has 200,000 acres of till able lands and some homesteads. Chewaucan valley has 75,000 acres and some homestead lands. Summer Lake valley has 50,000 acres of land that may be irrigated from artesian wells struck at depths of from 122 to 260 feet, and nearly all of which can be homesteaded. Christmas Lake val ley has 350,000 acres, some of which can be homesteaded. Horse Mountain valley has 75,000 acres, nearly all open to entry. Edith valley has 75, 000 acres, half of it under the 320 acre homestead act. Silver Lake val ley has 50,000 acres, 30,000 acres of which is open to entry. Many other smaller valleys present homes for the homeless. The members of the new organiza tion will visit every precinct in the county and organize local development clubs to co-operate with the parent organization and work to the develop ment of their sections. 1 his under- taxing is noi a small matter in a county of this size. L. Finlev. Expert in His Linn. B. comes State Game Warden. Salem J. Frank Hughes of Gold Hill was appointed by Governor West as a member of the State board of fish and game commissioners to succeed W. L. finley, who resigned as a mem ber of the board to become state game warden, succeeding R. O. Stevenson, of torest Grove. J. N. Wisner, of Ore gon Uity, has been appointed superin tendent of state fish hatcheries. . finley, who has become widely known as a student of birds and one of the foremost members of the Audu bon society, was serving as the four year term member of the new board, Ihe other, tour members requested that he resign to take the position as state game warden, which carries a salary of $2,500 annually. There were 12 applications for the position. but these were all carefully considered by the members and all of them were found to be not adapted Jo the posi tion. Members stated that they consid ered Mr. Finley would be of more val ue in the position of state game ward en where he could devote all of his time to the work, and Mr. Finlev ac cepted after a conference with Gover nor West. The board also reached the conclu sion to establish a new office of super intendent of state hatcheries at a sal ary of $2,000 annually. This superin tendent will work under the game warden and the fish warden as well. He will have charge of trout and sal mon hatcheries, the trout hatcheries being maintaned largely from the game fund and the salmon hatcheries from the hatchery fund of the state. Notification was sent out by the board to all of the mills of the state and others who own dams, fish lad ders, irrigation works or other obstruc tions to streams that an investigation will be made in the near future of all such devices or ditches and the board will determine to what extent the law in this respect is being observed. BANKER MORRIS IN PEN. Chief Wrecker ot Oregon Trust Savings Bank Begins Time, Salem, Or., May 27. After fighting for months against the inevitable, W. Cooper Morris heard the doors of the state penitentiary swing behind him and has started serving his sentence of six years for aiding in the wreck mg of the Oregon Trust & Savings bank of Portland. A two-hour argument by Attorney S. T. Richardson failed to change the decision of Governor West and no leniency would be extended to the ex banker. Shortly after 5 o'clock last night the governor announced his decision and Private Secretary Watson 1 im mediately telephoned to Deputy Sher iff Archie Leonard, who was awaiting the decision of the executive at the Hotel Marion. Morris was also at the hotel with a number of friends. District Attorney John H. McNary, George M. McDowell, Alex Sweek and Archie Leonard accompanied Morris to the penitentiary in an automobile secured by the district attorney and at 5:30 o'clock Morris entered the prison. Superintendent James refused to state what number he would give to the ex banker and stated that such would not be given out under any circumstances. "Mr. Morris will be placed in line with the rest of the prisoners and he will be treated the same as the oth ers, stated the superintendent. "It is probable he will have no work to do for some time. There are about 100 men at the institution who are not employed now and the new prisoners are not given work. For that reason he undoubtedly will not be placed at labor, and not because we intend to discriminate in his case."

BUILD ELECTRIC LINE. Eugene to Have Direct Connections to Tidewater. Eugene Stockholders of the Lane County Asset company have taken ac tion directing immediate steps to be gin construction of an electric rail way from Eugene to tidewater at Florence. The directors of the com pany will frame instructions to H. D. Fornieri, chief engineer, looking to the construction this summer of the first link of the road from Eugene to Elmira, approximately 14 miles. The Lane County Asset company is a local corporation that has been en gaged for the past two years in the promotion of a railway to the coast at Florence. A permanent survey has been completed and right of way has been acquired over practically the en tire route. Officials of the company say that sufficient capital is available to warrant the beginning of actual construction work on the 14 miles of level valley to Elmira. The company has been promised large quantities of ties by sawmills along the proposed route, and some of the rails for the first 14 miles are al ready in sight. The tentative plan is to construct an electric line, deriving power from the surplus current for sale by Eugene's power plant at Wal- terville. three of the five members of the city water board, which has complete control of the electric plant, are members of the Asset company. stockholders of the company also ordered condemnation proceedings to obtain two small sections of right of way for which private negotiations have not been successful. These places are between Eugene and Elmira. Beyond Elmira, right of way has been obtained as far as Glen- ada, on the south side of the Siuslaw harbor, at which point the company controls 800 feet of waterfront. Diaz Spends Quiet Sunday. Vera Cruz, Mexico General Diaz spent Sunday in quiet, denying him self to visitors with the exception of members of his immediate party. Crowds gathered around the house where the ex-president is staying, ap parently to watch for any chance oc curence. There were no demonstra tions. Sentries paced the verandas. La Opinion, a local newspaper, has in vited General Diaz to live here. Franx Josef is Failing. Godollo, Hungary Emperor Franz Josef has been attacked by senile de cay, and his condition is giving the gravest anxiety to those about him. This fact has been established by careful irquiry made on the spot by newspaper men. The aged emperor and his court are now at the beautiful royal palace at Godollo, 15 miles from Budapest, the ancient capita of Hungary. 1 Washroom Made Office. Salem So cramped for room is the capitol that Secretary of State Olcott has assigned the new purchasing agent, C. D. Frazer, of Portland, quarters in the wash and cloak room in the rear of the senate chamber. Mr. Frazer is flanked on one side by the state architect's office, and on the other by the office of the State agricultural board, and to get out he has to pass through one of these rifTipes ' Better Prices on for Salmon. Astoria While sales of this year's Columbia River canned salmon were reported a few days ago at $1.95 for flats and $1.85 for tails, sales have been made since that time at even a higher rate. One packer is known to have contracted several carloads at $2 a dozen for flats and $1.95 for tails the latter figure being 20 cents a doz en above the rate which prevailed season. inese prices are tor early fish and may not hold later. Mexico City., May 27. Porfirio Diaz, to whom for more than 30 years all Mexico has paid deference, secret ly left the palace at 2 o'clock this morning. Only a few friends whom he trusted followed him to the station. He went to Vera Cruz and went on board a steamer bound for Spain. In the distance he could hear the voices of enthusiastic celebrants, who were acclaiming the new president, Francisco de La Barra, and shouting "Viva Madero." So carefully were the arrangements made for his departure that details could not be confirmed until this after noon. Secrecy was due less to appre hension of a popular outburst here than to a desire that his departure should not become known to maraud ing bands. For some hours it was generally supposed that he had left over the Mexican National railroad, which has of late been untroubled by bandits. This road is equipped with standard heavy rails and it was thought there was less danger. There is another railroad to the coast, a narrow-gauge affair, owned by the government. Taking it for granted that he would take the more luxurious, the bandits did not molest the smaller line. WILL GIVE WEST BIG COLLEGE. Mrs. Harriman to Establish Great University as Memorial. New York Mrs. E. H. Harriman, America's richest woman, is to be the founder of a great university in the West as a glorious monument to the memory of her husband. It became known Saturday that Mrs. Harriman, casting about for some means of disbursing her great fortune in a way that would be of ben efit to the people of the country, had decided upon the establishment of an institution of learning as affording the best medium for such disbursement Her plans are not fully developed, but in a tentative way she has decided to found a university that will be second to none in the country in the point of curriculum and endowment. Millions as needed will be supplied from the Harriman estate to make this the greatest educational enter prise in the world. The institution will be called the Edward H. Har riman University. Washington, D. C John W. Gates told the house "steel trust" investiga ting committee Saturday the history of the United States Steel corpora tion. Present at its birth, he de scribed how it was the natural out come of what he described as the re fusal of Andrew Carnegie to be bound by the "gentlemen's agreements" that marked the early days of open competition in the steel business. He also told of millions lost and created almost in a breath; how the Carnegie mills, appraised at $160,- 000,000, were reorganized as worth $320,000,000 almost within the time required to make the transfer to the corporation; of the clash in the form ative days when John D. Rockefeller was dissuaded from joining in the cre ation of the trust. Relating how Carnegie had been forced to abandon plans for extending his steel business, Mr. Gates frankly admitted the combination was formed to throttle competition, and that, when John D. Rockefeller had sought to enter the steel business, a deal was put through which forced him to sell out for 40 cents o the dollar. Characterizing Mr. Carnegie as a "bull in a china shop," Mr. Gates told of a midnight conference between himself, Charles M. Schwab and J. P. Morgan, at which the Steel Corpora tion was conceived, and said that it resulted in Carnegie's getting $320, 000,000 in the corporation's securities for his interests, which he had offered for sale for $160,000,000 cash. The taking over of the Tennessee Coal & Iron company during the panic of 1907, he said, was confidential deal, put through by Mr. Morgan, and was forced on him. Plans made by Mr. Carnegie in 1899 and 1900 to circle his steel interests with a railroad of his own and to com pete with the National Tube company, organized by Mr. Morgan, by the erec tion of a tube works at Ashtabula, O., were factors that led to the birth of the steel combine. HEAT KILLS MANY. las the Water Turned Into Canal. West Stayton Water was put into the first mile of the Willamette Valley Irrigated Land company's canal Mon day. Everything was satisfactory and while work Jias been stopped tem porarily on account of the inclemency of the weather, only a few more weeks' work will complete the canal to West Stayton. Railroad Surveyors Espied. Baker News has just leaked out here that for some time a surveying corps of the O.-W. R. & N. company has been at work on the survey of an extension of the line from Brogan into the Lower Powder valley. To extend the Willow Creek line from Brogan it will be necessary to tunnel the divide separating the lower Powder valley from the Willow Creek valley. Bonds May Draw Low Rate. Salem In an opinion by Deputy At torney General Van Winkle it is held that the school board or electors of a school district may authorize the issu ance of bonds 'or interest-bearing war rants, bearing interest at a rate less pr more than 6 per cent. Mill Runs Day and Night. La Grande The George Palmer Lumber company's mill has resumed night and day runs and gives employ ment to about 100 additional skilled workmen. The management of the mill will continue the night and day runs indefinitely. , Airships to Fight in Air. Chicago President Taft has advised the promoters of the aviation meet to be held here August 12-20 that he will be in Chicago June 4, and will meet the committee in charge to agree on how extensively the army and navy will join in the military features of the meet. It has been announced that the president will be given full oppor tunity to test out the aeroplane as a war factor in any manner he wishes. The managers of the meet hope to have the United States government bring about the first battle in the air. Steamer Sinks, Sixty Lost. Panama The National Steamship Line steamer Tabogo struck a rock off Punta Mala Friday and sank a short time afterwards. Of the 100 passen gers on board only 40 are known to have been saved. The Tabogo had a cargo of cattle and was on her regular coastwise trip. The scene of the acci dent is about 100 miles from the near est telegraph station, which makes it difficult to obtain details of the acci dent. Hello Girls' Hours Reduced. Ulympia, Wash. When the recent egislature passed the eight-hour law for women, providing that it applied to all women and girls employed in mechanicial establishment, the law was so drawn that it included tele- hone operators. So holds Stephen V. Carey, assistant attorney-general, in a formal opinion to the State Railroad commission, and it will affect every telephone operator in the state. , Mississippi Valley States Suffer From Hot Wave. Chicago, May 29. Full effects of the terrible heat wave were beginning to appear today when 11 deaths were reported to the police. In addition there were many prostrations, some of which are certain to prove fatal. The temperature soared above 94 and was accompanied by dense humid ity, which made breathing difficult and greatly intensified the suffering. Weather forecasters predict a break in the torridity some time within 24 hours. At Toledo, O., two persons fell dead in the streets and at Evansville, Ind., a heat victim, while delirious, cut his throat. Dispatches from other cities and towns tell similar stories. St. Louis is experiencing record weather and the schools there will remain closed until the situation is relieved. In Pittsburg, Youngstown, O., Gary, Ind., and other industrial centers where large steel mills are located, work has been reduced to the mini mum, as men cannot endure the in tense heat. At Milwaukee Frank Siebel, secre tary to George Brunder, the publisher. was overcome by the heat and com mitted suicide by drowning. the health department and sanitarv bureau had an unusually large number of men out today watching the ven ders of hokey-pokey, ice cream cones and decayed foodstuffs. The offenders are chiefly Italians and Greeks, who buy putrid meat and vegetables and sell the stuff in the tenement districts. Ely Flirts With Ocean. Eureka, Cal. Eugene Ely. whose distinction as an aviator rests, to a considerable extent, ixm his success in alighting ujon the deck of the bat tleship Pennsylvania in San Francisco bay, made what he termed one of the most dangerous flights of his career here. Facing a 45-mile wind, he rose 1,000 feet, soared out over the tim bered crags and rose and dipped above the breakers that roared over Hum boldt bay bar. For nearly half an hour he hung over the sea, while thousands of spectators watched him, excited but anxious. No Whiskers on Haggin's Ranch. Lexington, Ky. J. B. Haggin, the multi-millionaire owner of Elmendorf stock farm, has caused notices to be posted requiring the several hundred employes to be shaved every other day. Haggin believes that "whiskers" propagate dangerous microbes, and the order is meant to affect particularly employes in the dairy department. A barber shop is being installed, and ac companying it is being erected a $100,0(10 bath room for the employes. Manitoba Has Snow Storm. Winnipeg, Manitoba, Mav2?. Five inches of snow was reported yesterday from Harrow Ford, Northwestern Manitoba.
