CUSTOM-HOUSE FIGHT ABANDONED Too Late to Select a New Site, Thousli the Present One Is Open to Serious Objection. The Chamber of Commerce has aban doned its effort to have the new custom house enlarged, and is now directing Its energies to bring about enlargement of the postoflice. If this plan succeeds, the Unit ed States courts and their officers will stay -where they arc, and there will be plenty of room In the nw building for officers -who otherwise -would be crowded out. Sol Hlrsch, J. Thorburn Ross and 3T. .Zan, composing the committee to which the custom-house subject was re ferred last fall, made their final report to the trustees of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday morning. The report follows: The site selected by the government for thla building: Is an undesirable one. It is remote from the business center of the city, and at a .considerable distance from, any business. It is in a low-lying- district, subject to overflow by backwater from the Columbia In June- freshets, and in the judgment of your committee should never have been chcaen for so important a .structure. But the work of construction Ie now well ad vanced; the wells are up; the structure Is about ready for the roof, and It Is conceded that it 4 nn Inttt nrrar -tn nhnnflon this site and eelect another. There has been criticism also of the j plan of the building, on the ground that it would not afford accommodation for all the departments of the service assigned to It. Many of lte rooms will be small and the rooms will be too few. To remedy these deficiencies, it has been pro posed to change the plan of the building. En largement of the ground plan was at first pro posed, but the work of erection has gone so far that this had to be abandoned some time uince as Inadmissible. The latest suggestion lt that another story be added to it. As an altematlx'e, which seems to us every way preferable, we suggest that the present poctofllce building on Morrison street, between Fifth and Sixth streets, be enlarged, and that the new building, now ready for the roof, be completed according to the original plans. En largement of the postoflice building is certainly practicable. There is ample space on the ground, and the postal service Is greatly In need of the additional room. The United States courts, with clerks', marshals and attornejs of fices, now in this building, may then remain, and In the new building, where the room will ba insufficient for the accommodation of thesa officials, together trlth' those of the other nn snerous branches of the service, alterations of the Inside plans, which wilj ccst little or noth ing additional, will give excellent results. If this course be adopted, the United States courts and their ministerial offices "may remain where they are, and the postolflce will be pro vided -with the additional room that is becom ing indispensable to Its work, while accommo dation may be had in the new building for the offices of the customs and internal reenue, for the engineer corps and the various military of fices, for the engineers of steam inspection, for the sun ej or-general, and for ouch other cerv jce as the United States my require. Instead of another story for the new build ing, we therefore earnestly recommend ex tension or enlargement of the postoflice build ing, the site of Which is the very best in the city. We think the United States courts should remain where they are, since their removal to the new building, would be inconvenient to them,to the public and to the bar, as set forth in the" resolutions passed by the State Bar As sociation, herewith inclosed." Finally, we desire to repeat our statement that enlargement of the postoflice building seems to ub an Indispensable need. The committee made as part of its re port the resolutions protesting against the removal of the United States courts, recently adopted by the State Bar Asso ciation. They follow: "Whereas, It is generally understood that upon the completion of the new custom-house now being erected in the northern part of this city it is designed to remove to that building the United States courts, now located inthe post U"ce building; therefore, be it Resolved, That it Is the unanimous desire of this association that the United States courts be retained, in the building where they are now lo cated. That the present. location Is convenient and easily accessible for attornejs and all those having business therewith. That they are now located In the business center of the city, and are in close proximity with and con venient to the state and other courts in thla city, and their removal to the locality con templated would occas'on delay, annoyance and -confusion to those practicing before them. That their removal to the new building "would place them at the extreme end of the city from all other courts. In an inconvenient and inaccess ible section, off the usual lines of transit, and distant from the offices and resorts of attor Treys: That their retention in the present build ing will give needed room for other federal of fices in the new construction. And it Is further Resolved, That cur senators and representa tives in congress be requested to eee that no action in taken by congress to remote the fed eral courts from their present location. The trustees adopted the report of the Hirsch committee and ordered that cop ies of it and the resolution of the bar as sociation be mailed to the Oregon delega tion in congress, with the request that they give the matter their best atten tion. CELEBRATEDTHEIR NEWYEAR All CliinatOTvn "Was Given Festivities. Over to All the Chinese residents of Portland took a day off yesterday and celebrated the beginning of their new year. Chinese stores and laundries were closed, and most of the Chinese restaurants and "hop dens" were open only to Celestial custom. Fire works figured In most of the festivities. and a continual popping and cracking of 7K-nch, solid colors, gold 7Er pa traced, $1.15 grade, at.. iJt Cd 5-inch, same style, our QEr no $1.35 grade, for OJt CO OLDS & Kl squibs and bombs has been going on ever since Monday evening. The celebration will continue for several days. Fruit ven ders did a thriving business In Chinatown last evening. Wagons were lined up along the curbing on Second street, and large quantities of sour oranges and overripe bananas found their way into Chinese hands. "When are you going to burn the devil," was asked a laundryman last night. "Kb burn devil; ain't no devil," came the reply, "llkee white man, nailee holse shoe over door." 3 HELD UP A TICKET AGENT. Jefferson-Street Station Believed, of a Small Sum. George H. Pettinger, night ticket agent and Janitor for the Southern Pacific Com pany, was held up last night at the station, foot of Jefferson street. The highwaymen involved were the usual long and short men. They wore black masks, slouch hats and dark clothes. The amount of the plunder is between $8 and 10. The affair happened about 9:40, when Pettinger was making his customary rounds of the depot with the night lantern. As he was quietly walking along he was suddenly confronted by two masked men, each of whom had a pistol leveled at him. One of the men ordered him to hold up his hands. Thinking it might be a joke, he refused to do so. The robbers then used such persuasive language that there was no doubt as to their Intentions, and Pqt tlnger's hands pointed beavenward like two church spires. After making a hasty search of their man, the highwaymen took him into the ticket office and ordered him to open the cash drawer. At this he began to remon strate, but the long and short men In formed him that they would send him to a place where It was much -warmer, unless he complied with their demands. The cus tom of the office is to carry over night just about enough money for change, and the amount in the drawer at the time of the robbery was under 10. This the rob bers put in a sack, and, telling Pettinger they expected him to remain in the office for five minutes, departed. Mr. Pettinger Is an elderly man, and as he was probably much frightened at the time, cannot give a very good description of the men. He says they are both re markably slender people, and the taller be declares to be not more than average height, while the smaller Is nearly a half bead shorter. The place of the robbery is a very Isolated one, while it is also ex ceedingly dark, and no amount of yelling could be expected to bring aid. o OIL STORAGE ORDINANCES. Council Committees Will Consider Them. Meet to At the last meeting of the common council two ordinances were introduced having in view the object of regulaling the storage of coal oil and other inflam mable oils in this city, the cause of this being the fire at the Standard Oil Com pany's establishment on the East Side, which was burning at the time. One ordi nance, introduced by Hanson, provides for a graduated scale of licenses, Increasing with the amount of such oils stored, and being so large for large amounts as to be practically prohibitive against the storing of any great quantity of oil In the city. The other, introduced by Harris, proposes to provide against danger from large quan tlties'of oil by requiring strong walls to be built around the tanks and -warehouses where the oils are stored. In some -way one of these ordinances was referred to the committee on health and police and the other to the license committee. It has been arranged for these commit tees to meet together to consider the or dinances, and this conference -will b held today, and it is expected that the Stand ard Oil Company will be represented at the meeting. No one has any idea which, if either, of the ordinances will be recom mended for passage. A permit for making repairs was taken out by the Standard Oil Company yester day, from "which it would appear that they have decided to rebuild their warehouse in any event The question Is a grave matter, "which the committees and council will probably consider and act upon with out fear or favor. a OBSTRUCTIONS TO TRAVEL. Probable Improvement of Russell and "Vnuprhn Street. A. great part of Russell street has been. Improved ly planking, but there Is a break of one block in this improvement, which spoils the street. There Is a demand for the improvement of this block, and a brlckmaker in that vicinity bas offered to give $100 toward paying for the improve ment. Other property-owners on the block are not to desirous of the improvement, but -will probably consent to it. The mat ter was discussed by a number of coun cilmen yesterday, and it was Intimated to Jameson that here was an opportunity for him to benefit his constituents. He was told that It is not a good thing for the continuity of an improved street to be broken by leaving one block unimproved. "Vaughn street has long been opened for its entire length, with the exception of two blocks, and the greater part of it im proved, but it has not became a traveled thoroughfare on account of the obstruc tion of the two blocks unopened. Mayor Storey has been looking Into the matter, and has ascena'ned that the proprty-own-cra on these two blocks are willing that they shall be opened and Improved with macadam, and he has requested Council man Harris to have a petition for this improvement circulated. The Council will have the improvement made as soon as possible, and when It is completed Vaughn street will be an Improved street from Nineteenth to Twenty-second, a distance of about 16 ordinary blocks, and will then j become a well-traveled thoroughfare. ONLY A FEW OF o o I TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO MAKE YOUR PURCHASES AND AVOID THE FINAL RUSH etteettoioot99cciie8tseetie9eoiete(eocee((iit9it SOLDIER DfAD RETURNED BODIES OF FIFTEEN OREGON BOYS IN SAN FRANCISCO. They Came Over on the City of Pe king; Arrangements for Bring ing Them to Portland. Authentic Information reached Portland yesterday that 15 of the soldier dead brought to San Francisco recently from the Philippines on the City of Peking, were the bodies of Oregon boys. This is the first official report of this fact .ilthough the transport reached San Francisco Jan uary 25. The government officials are said to hold the remains subject to the order of parents or friends, but neither would ever be able to know "wnen their dead ar rived, without standing constantly at the dock in San Francisco. There has never been any Information given out as to how parents should act to secure possession of their sons' remains, and hence In but few Instances have applications been made at the quartermaster department of the Presidio. Governor Geer, General Sum mers nor any other official of the state or regiment have not been furnished any thing definite as to time of arrival or man ner in which Oregon parents should pro ceed. A copy of a San Francisco paper, dated January 26, arrived In Portland, and from It it was seen that a part of he dead brought over by the Peking were Oregon men. General Summers at once tele graphed Colonel Iong, chief of tne quar termaster department at the Presidio, for Jg. ---. "J T . ill PLOT 18 RTVEirVIEIW CEMETERY RECOMMENDED FOR BURIAI PLACE OF SECOND OREGON DEAD. particulars, and the following reply was received: "Referring to your telegram of today, remains of soldiers belonging to Second Oregon volunteers arrived on the Pekin, and instructions for disposition of them have been received as follows: John Spler lng, private company H, to be sent to John Splering, Greenville, Washington county, Or.; Lewis E. Miller, private com pany A, to John Miller, MoMlnnvllle, Yamhill county, 'Or,; Edward W. Hamp ton, private company H, to John Hamp ton, S97 San Rafael street, Portland; Har ry G.

Hawthorne, Eu gene, Or.; Charles H. Ruhl, private com pany H, to C. S. Ruhl, Portland, Or. Re mains of the following soldiers were also received, arid are unclaimed: Michael P. Crowley, private company D; Frank E. Rofeno, private company G; John H. Fen ton, private company B; Percy C. Oliver, private company H; Charles A". Horn, pri vate company C; Fred J. Norton, private company F; Frank F. Hlbbs, private com pany A, and Richard E. Perry, private company A." As soon as this dispatch was received, General Summers telegraphed the secre tary of war as follows: "Have any of Second Oregon remains been shipped, or are you waiting Instruc tions?" Up to a late hour no answer had been rpr.eived to this disoatch. When It does come the date for the remains to 'start? from San Francisco will probably be linown. Until then preparation to receive them, or other arrangements, cannot pro gress with any degree of certainy. The sudden arrival of some of Oregon's soldier dead has rather frustrated plans that were being evolved by the volunteers. At the recent convention held it was de termined to secure a plot of ground to be, used for Interring the regimest's dead 't in tne islands. This, of course, would with the assent of parents. The vol eers had selected a spot In Riverview cemetery adapted to their plans, which they were negotiating to obtain, with fair prospects of success. Work was not be- J mg nurried, as no one thought the remains would begin to arrive before March, ac cording to the assurance of the war de- DAYS LEFT partment. Corresponding with parents would require two or three weeks, at the outside. When the fact became known yesterday of the arrival in San Francisco, General Summers, who commands the state or ganization of veterans, began laboring to ascertain what could be done. Realizing that it was hopeless to communicate with all the parents before the remains would be shipped to the state or interred at the Presidio, he asks, through The Oregonlan, for each family of the 15 dead now in San Francisco to notify him immediately, by postal card or otherwise, if they are will ing to have the remains of their soldier dead burled in the common cemetery for volunteers. In the meantime the date when the government Intends to ship the remains from San Francisco will be learned, and plans for the reception and final services may be perfected. The plot In Blvervlew which the volunteers wanted Is on the highest part of the inclosure, next to the western line, and commands the entire cemetery. If it is secured and parents consent to the remains of their sons being buried there, a small monu ment Is to be erected In the center of the semicircle, the design being a life-size statue of a volunteer in field uniform. Immediately back of the statue is- to be a large flagpole, for the display of the na tional colors on patriotic occasions. The account of the landing of the re mains at San Francisco Indicates that triere is a lack of system and method In the work of returning remains to this country. The following appears In the Chronicle, January 23: "For six hours yesterday steam hoists and two squads of stevedores were busy transferring the remains of dead soldiers from the lower holds of tlie big transport, City of Peking, to the decks of the steam er Caroline, as the vessels lay side by side, a mile north of Black point. Before 5 In gontf the afternoon the hearse ship was relieved of the cargo she brought all the way across the Pacific from the three military cemeteries near Manila. She then weighed anchor and steamed around to the trans port pier, after a delay at anchor of more than 30 hours. This delay was "caused largely by the .negligence of some officers In the Philippines, who had sent a ship load of dead soldiers homo, with no rec ord of who they were Except the painted names on the ends of the casket boxes, that often did not agree with the incom plete certificates of death insecurely past ed on by an army surgeon in Manila. Offi cial intelligence was to the effect that there were just 150 bodies aboard, gen eral report gave the number as 153, and the actual count during the process of un loading and recording the names and com mands, proved that there were 159 bodies. "These soldier dead were taken to the little pier at the Presidio, and there dis embarked, the task keeping a large force of stevedores and soldiers busy until after midnight. From the Presidio pier, the caskets were conveyed one by one, to the commodious frame structure near the Lombard-street entrance to the reserva tion and placed In the hall used by the Young Men's Christian Association build ing and reading-room during the days when the hundreds of tents all about were occupied by volunteers. Fourteen two mule wagons were engaged in the work of transferring caskets from the pier to the storehouse. Every wagon was pro vided -with a flag to drape over the casket box. A military guard, with an officer Mn charge, patrolled the approach to' the pier, and a similar watch was kept at the temporary mausoleum, three-quarters of a mile away. This little guard will be maintained- at the storehouse until tho last casket shall have been claimed by a relative or taken away for burial in the Presidio cemetery. Probably 90 per cent of the J59 caskets are marked, Applied for,' which means that relatives of the dead have requested that the remains be sent to' them. Transportation to the ulti mate destination will be'iJaid for by the government. "No one knew what bodies were aboard the transport until the unloading labor iously developed the complete list. There were three captains, one of them a chap lain: seven lieutenants, 12 sergeants, 11 corporals, seven musicians and 119 prl- SATURB, After that date regular prices will TIEIO vates. Three caskets were marked "Un known United States Soldier." One of these was designated as a 'corporal,' and another 'a member of the First Califor nia volunteer Infantry.' "The total -weight of the i59 bodies, in closed as they were In supposedly sealed metallic caskets, Inside thick redwood "boxes, was something like 31 tons, each box weighing about 400 pounds. "The dead are from 16 volunteer and nine regular commands. - Fourteen differ ent state regiments are represented in the list. Nebraska leads with a total of 18. Then come California, Oregon and South Dakota, with 15 each from their regiments. Washington has 12 and Idaho 10. Nine from the Fourteenth regulars, five from the Eighteenth regulars, four from the-Twenty-third regulars., four from the Fourth regular cavalry, three from the Third regular , artillery, and two from the regular hospital corps are figures that come home to San Francisco, for these very commands were very largely re cruited right bere before they went to war. "These are only about one-sixth of the soldier bodies now being disinterred ard shipped to the United States from Paco cemetery, Battery Knoll cemetery and San Antonio, the three military burying grounds adjacent to Manila. This con signment Is from Paco cemetery, which contained the remains of about 300 Amer ican soldiery. It is one of the most beau tiful spots In Luzon. "The officials at this end of the line ex pect a good deal of trouble with future consignments of dead If this first is an ac curate description of the methods pur sued by officials In Manila, who are sup posed to provide every box with a. certifi cate specifying accurately the full name, the command, the cause of death and oth er information of interest to the quaran tine officers- here and to the relatives of the deceased. Many of the bbxes unload ed yesterday had certificates with no cause of death given. If by any chance a casket had fallen overboard during the transfer from the big transport to the lit tle steamer there was no record anywhere that would have shown what body was lost. The only Tecord Is a flimsy toft of paper pasted on the end of the casket box. Duplicate records could have been prepared by the officers 'in, ManO, burr they ware not, and it took six hoursi constant watching yesterday to secure the complete and accurate list herewith for the different commands "What disposition "will be made of the bodies stored just inside the Presidio gates Isnot yet known, but it Is expected that they will "be quickly applied for by the 'proper persons as soon as the relatives Jearn of the remains arriving here.

"All day yesterday the harbor military flags floated at halfmast out of respect for the soldier dead that were being re turned to their native land." ON A MOUNTAIN MARCH. Captain O'Neill's Colored Toole Tvro Towns. SoIdiera Captain J. P. O'Neill, whose home is In Portland, and who was on recruiting duty here after his return from the Cuban cam paign, recently made a memorable march in the Philippines. The Manila American, of December 7 gives a three-column account of the ex pedition, -written by its staff correspondent, who accompanied the command. Captain O'Neill took a battalion of the Twenty-fifth colored infantry, comprising 400 men, and started, December 3, acrosg the mountains of the Zambeles province. The Filipinos said that Americans could not stand the rough trip. There Tvere no roads, and for the most part only a dim trail. The command captured two towns, Batalan and Iba, and only one man was wounded. It was impossible to take along carts, so the ammunition was carried on 20 pack ponies, in charge of Fred Scholling. Ten days' rations of hardtack and bacon was carried on the heads, backs and shoulders of 150 Filipinos, hired for the trip at the rate of ?6 per month. The command "had to march strung out in Indian file, Lieutenant Lyon, with the scouts, heading the column and piercing places that looked f avoraDle for ambushes, which caused an endless amount of rough climbing and scrambling. At intervals the trail led into forests which are still as a grave, and dark almost to moonlight, and then emerged once more Into the fierce Philippine sun, but ever went up and up to the summit of the Zambeles moun tains. After crossing the summit the command captured the village of San Fernando, and 'just beyond there the trail widened into a road, making marching to the coast much easier. No Negritos were seen on the trip, al though the column passed directly through their mountain preserves. Their habita tions consisted of desolate little gras3 patches, here and there in the mountains, on which were a few lowly hovels. The Insurgent garrison at Balatan of fered battle, but could not stand the charge of. the American soldiers, and Captain O'Neill's command drove them out of town In very short order. A dozen insurgents "were killed and an old Spanish cannon was captured. Next morning the column marched five ENDS feed at sped s a Now rll THE SILVERFIELD FUR MANUFACTURING CO.

BLIND BE6GARJPPD5- 1 Jury Trial Resulted, in a Svyif t Con-;, victlon. A jury trial in the- municipal court yes terday resulted! in the conviction. o the blind beggar. J. H. Fifer, who has, been defying the police for several days. Fifer has been wearing a placard stating that his blindness Is due to sickness, and holds out a little tin cup for charity from the passers-by. At the time of his previous arrest for begging, the officer taking him into custody did not produce in court the placard and cup, nor had he seen him soliciting aid. Fifer was discharged, and Immediately commenced taking his sta tion daily on the most popular street cor ners, as before. Being spoken to repeat edly by the police, he became- defiant, as serting that they had no right to make him quit his vocation., He "was- then taken into custody for obstructing1 the streets, but after his arrest the charge was again ma'dfr begging. Fifer demanded a jury- when he was arraigned the last time, employed an at torney in his defense, -put up cash Jball as usual, and prepared to fight for "the privilege of begging on the streets of Portland, Considerable interest had been aroused among the charity officials over his first acQuIttal. and a good attendance was present at Ills trial yesterday. No defense of any Importance y-as made. The arresting officer produced the placard and cup, and stated that he had seen persons deposit coins In the cup for theJSlind man. Fifer's attorney raised the technical ob jection that his client had not been beg ging, as he had not solicited aid by. word of mouth. A moving plea was made for the blind man. Judge" Hennessy con strued the ordinance prohibiting begging to coyer even the case of a dumb man, and Fifer's case went to the jury. No possible verdict but guilty could be re turned. In a few moments the six jurors came In with the announcement that the prisoner was guilty as charged. "With the verdict was a recommendation for the mercy of the Court, which his honor said he would fully heed by inflicting the low est possible fine, $10. to WHY DO YOU SUFFER From Itching scalp, eczema, dandruff, or any skin eruption when Smith's Dandruff Pomade will cure you?
