Finance Committee Meets and For- Bialutes Plana Mass Meeting for Thursday Right. The coming Fourth of July celebration in Portland promises to eclipse previous ef forts. If the men who are interested in the matter are able to carry out their plans, it will be an occasion worth attend ing, and all Oregon will doubtless come to town. An enthusiastic meeting of the finance committee was held last night In the City Hall, with General O. Summers in the chair. The meeting -was well attended, notwithstanding the political excitement in the city. Those who have been engaged In the canvass made reports showing that the people will subscribe liberally. There was some complaint that the larger concerns were not as liberal as the committee had expected, and the chairman ordered the canvass to continue until Thursday night, when final reports will be made at a mass meeting, which will be held In room 630, Chamber of Commerce building. Those who feel an Interest In the coming Fourth of July celebration are urged to be present at that meeting, and take part In the proceedings. All of the committees will be named then. Spirited Temarks were made at the meet ing last night by I. N. Fleischner, Julius Meier. George W. Caldwell, Louis Dam musch, J. D. Mann, E. House, S. Solomon, L. Samuel. L. M. Clarke, J. M. Gilbert, and A. D. Rockafellow. Many Interesting features were suggest ed by these speakers, and more enthusiasm prevailed than at any former meeting. General Summers made several sugges tions, which will be carried out. It was decided to begin the celebration July ?. and keep it up until the 5th. Everything will take place on the streets. The fire works and Illumination promise to surpass anything seen here in years. It is the aim of the finance committee to use care in the expenditure of money. All purchases will be made at home, and no Individual member of the committee will be permitted to disburse funds or make contracts without the sanction of the entire committee. It is the purpose of the committee to make the street parade of the Fourth a feature of the occasion. Many new things are to be provided for this. The Elks have been Invited, and have accepted the invitation to co-operate In the parade ar rangements. Seid Back. Jr., was added to the finance committa at the meeting last night. GOOD BILLIARD TOURNAMENT Many Exciting: Contents Plaj cd at Commercial Club. 1r --The tournament games at the Commer cial Club are progressing quite rapidly. Monday, May 2S, W. H. Hurlburt pyed P. H. Trumbull. These two aro In the first class. In fact being the only first class -billiard-players In this tournament. C. O. Wa'te should have been in this class, but, as there was no one to pair him with, it was found necessary to place him in the sond class, with a handicap. The game was won by Trumbull by a score of 100 to 93. Hurlburt gained at first, until he was about 20 points ahead of Trumbulll, who here made a run of 15. thereby making the score somewhat olaser, and It remained so until it reached S3 to 93 In favor of Hurlburt, and Hurl burt's next shot. Ho had the two object balls against the end cushion, and could easily have made his five points neces sary to win. but, bo'iejvlng' it was best to be as cautious as possible, endeavored to make one of the object balls strike tha cushion and return in a still better posi tion, but fumbled and failed Jn his object balls as well as count, leaving the balls in good position for TrumbuH, who mado a run cf seven and out, thereby making the flnlsn of this game very exciting. Thursday. Henry Huggins defeated Dr. J. H Davis by a score of 75 to 6S. Huggin gained at first, and bad a considerabl lead, but towards the end of the gams Davis materially reduced his lead. They played .o points, being ip the second class. Saturday, Julius Heilbron was to play J. G. Rcddick. but the latter not appear ing, the game was given to Mr. Heilbron by default. The game between Dr. C. H. "Wheeler and T. H. Potter was decided the same way, Mr. Potter being on hand. Dr. Whoe'er not appearing. Monday. June 4. C O. "Waite played D. D. Oliphant. Mr. "WaHe Is a very fine player, and capable of good-sized runs, much beyond Mr. Oliphant's capacity. Nevertheless, Mr. Oliphant played a fine, steady game: in fact, surprised the spec tators by making C7 points to Waite" s 75. As the committee had given Oliphant the benefit of a 35 handicap, this made his score 102. Mr. Trumbull now leads in the first class, and In the second Potter and Dun lop will play Saturday, June 9. and Hug gins vs. Heilbron Monday, June 11. Mr. Oliphant being a b. plays the winner of the Huggins-Heilbron game, June 14. Pool. In the pool tournament E. E. McMichacl defeated M.

It is hard to say what the winners of the second class and third class will do in the final, as they will be handicapped so as to be on as equal a footing as possible with the first-class men. WITH MACABEBE SCOUTS. Officer Tells of 111 Experienced In Luzon. A letter has been received In. this city from Lieutenant Jonn P. Hafson, of the Thirty-fifth Regiment, now In the Philip pines. Lieutenant Hasson, who is a na tive of Vancouver, Wash., went to the Philippines as a private with the First "Washington Regiment, and after the muster-out of the Volunteers was made a Sec ond Lieuterant in the Thirty-fifth Regi ment. Lieutenant Haseon, In writing of hte experience in the campaign since No vember, says: "We arrived here In No vember, and were Immediately orderec to Join Lawton In his northern campaign, but at a town called Ar?yat we were stalled for over a month. During that time I was Battalion Quartermaster Ot transportation, having all the work of transporting rations, etc, further north ward. "On December 12 we mobilized at San Isidro, then Lawton's headquarters, and made a move on San Miguel de Mayumo, taking this place with about half an hour's fight. From there I was shifted to San Ild?fonso to command that pest, with a detachment of 30 men. Here I stayed for one month, having an occasional skir mish or two. On January 12 I was detailed on duty with Maccabebe scouts, mak ing several 'kikes' with these men and, Ir fact, continually, on the go. When after a company of insurgents near & place called Capot I had the misfortune to run Into a Remington bullet, which struck me In ths thigh, so now I am rus. tlcatlng In the Reserve Hospital, and ex pect cither to get a leave of absence ana return to the United States soon or go back to my regiment." REPAIR SHOPS BUSY. They Have Plenty of Worlc Mend Ins Broken "Wheels. Portland bicycle repair shops are now busy as they can be, as this Is the height of the bicycle season, and the wheels will break down occasionally. Extra men are being employed at nearly all the shops, and In many places they work until 10 o'clock at night, as every rider wants his wheel repaired right away. The prices for bicycle repairing have not advanced, however, and even members of the Bicycle Board of Trade do not charge the card limit, as posted up in their places of busi ness. A member of the combine said yes terday that the organization had not been effected for the purpose of raising prices, but to guard against bad bills, and to make collections easier. Roads and paths are now at their best, as the Spring's dampness has disappeared and the Summer's ruts and dust have not yet formed. A few weeks more of dry weather will make wheeling In the rural districts less pleasant, and the business of the repair shops will then begin to fall off. REDUCED RATES EAST.

Seventy-are Per Cent of Present Crop Controlled by This Organi zation. The directors of the Cured Fruit Asso ciation of the Pacific Northwest held their first unnual meeting in the piflce of Secretary H. E. Dosch. 246 "Washington street, yesterday. The meeting was at tended by the following directors: President "William Galloway, of Mc Mlnnvllle; J. P. McMlnn. of Walla "Walla; C. R. Smead, of Blalock; F. L. "Wheeler, of North Yakima; J. H. Fletcher, C. T. Shaw and H. C. Borstwlck. of Vancou ver: H. A. "Weeks and C. E. Stewart, of Medford; Charles Long, of SUvccton, and "W. K. Newell, of Dllly. This con stituted the full board of directors, lack ing one. Many matters of Interest to the prune growers of the Northwest were discussed. It was decided to make a number ot rec ommendations to the stockholders of the association, who meet today In room 524 Chamber of Commerce building. Among these recommendations will e one to -the effect that in view of the fact that 75 per cent, of the prune crop Is now controlled by the association, that its efforts along the lines already laid down be continued, and that the crop of prunes be handled through the organization. Another recommendation will be that a slip bearing the name and" number of the packer be placed In each box of fruit, thus enabling a buyer to trace any bad package back to the original owner, even though the goods had beeen inspected and passed by the Inspectors. It was also declared to be the desire of the growers to fix a minimum price on Oregon, or Italian prunes, and on French prunes. "When the prices are thus fixed, each grower can sell his own fruit if he so desires, but must do It through the association, and all collections must be made through that organization. This is to enable those who have large customers whom they have been supplying hereto fore to continue to do so without any change of methods. v The -directors will further recommend that warehouses be established In the BUY A SOUVENIR BUTTON. Now the volunteer committee Is on the sale of the 16th thousand of the souvenir buttons turned out since the work began. At least 25.000 must be sold, so it will be seen the demand ehould not ceast. There are thoufands of persons In Portland, not to speak of other parts of the state, who do not own or wear one of these neat buttons. Every cent paid for a button aids o redeem the state's honor In an en terprise to which It le committed. That !s, erection of a monument .to Oregon's dead soldiers who fell In the late wnr. Voluntary contribu tions had about ceased when sale of the souvenir buttons commenced to push the work of raising the fund. A large number of buttons must be eold, and everybody not purchasing Is expected to do his part. If all will buy a button the burden will be felt by none, and a magnificent sum will be realized. Evervbody buy, and those who have bouarht should make life a burden to those who have not until they, too, become purchasers. various prune-growing centers, so that all prunes sold from such centers can be shipped direct, thus saving rehandllnff. As these recommendations are said to have come from the people Interested In prune culture, little doubt is entertained that the meeting of the growers today win unanimously adopt them. Secretary Dosch says the organization, while not controlling 75 per cent of the acreage, actually controls 75 per cent of the crop, and that perhaps 90 per cent ot the growers who have crops this year are Inside the association, or will be soon. ' New directors will be elected at to day's meeting. These in turn will elect new officers for the ensuing year. Machine Shoj Baildlnic.

Smith, two prominent fruitgrowers and. frultshlppers of Walla Walla, arrived in Portland yes terday to attend the meeting of the Cured Fruit Association. Mr. Smith bears the distinction of being the first prune dryer In the "Walla Walla country: Mr. McMir.n was second to make experiments in that line. These gentlemen Introduced an in dustry which has grown to considerable proportions In that country. Mr. McMlnn visits Willamette Valley and Western Washington prune districts yearly to gather new Ideas and methods for adaptation to the Walla Walla country- Mr. Smith has done much for fruit culture in Sputheastern Washington by making a study of Montana "and Idaho markets, and creating a demand abroad for Walla Walla garden and orchard prod ucts. Speaking of the present season's jbros- pocts. Mr. McMlnn Is hopeful. He says that In general the fruit crop of the Walla Walla Valley will be above the average. All of the fruit is developing large size and fine quality. While there will not he a heavy crop Of peaches, those which are on the trees are of exceptional size and flavor. The prune crop will ex ceed that which has been produced in any previous year. Walla Walla apples which have attained reputation as far East as Kansas City and Chicago, will be pro duced In abundance this season. The Spring was too damp to be favorable for early melons, but late melons are getting on well. The alfalfa hay crop will be larger this "season than It has ever been In the Walla Walla country, grass do ing well on both the heavy and light land. While there Is some tendency on heavy lands to rust In wheat, the stalks of the wheat have not yet been affected. When Mr. McMlnn left Walla Walla the weather had turned off dry, so that It was hoped that the wheat would mature without further Injury from the dampness and coldness of this exceptional growing sea son. PRAISE FOR OTIS. F. W. Vaille's High Estimate of the General. A business man of this city, who re ceived the following letter a day or two ago, has int It to The Oregonlan for publication. The writer, Mr. Vaille, Is well known here, having filled the posi tion of Assistant Superintendent of the Railway Mall Service here for a number of years. He is now at the head of the Postal Service In the Philippines: "Manila, May 3. The only news of In terest here to me Is the going of General Otis and the coming of the commission. For selfish, personal reasons I am sorry to see Otis going. He has shown him self to be a wonderful man one In a million. History will rank him with the great Americans. I am afraid, though, he has put off his going too long. He has devoted all of his tlmo and brain to the task set beforo him, and has worn himself out. He Is not looking well, and I am afraid he has drawn too much on his vitality. For the 20 months he has been here he has been at work before 7 A. M., and kept at It all day and Into the night. For a long tlmo he contented himself Trlth a light lunch In his office at noon to save time required in going to and returning from his home. He has not had a Sunday or a holiday for rest In all that time. He has worn himself out through devotion to his duty, and has ac complished wonderful results. "He has been misrepresented at home and by people here who could see but one side of the shield, but I believe his day will come, though I fear he may not live to see it. "He Is a brainy man, with the vital energy to direct the brain and prevent him from being In any respect a mere "visionary, or dreamer of dreams. He saw the right and clung to It, In spite of criticism and abuse, and I hope he will know that the great people do appreciate honest. Intelligent devotion to duty. "F. W. VAILLE."

Trustees of Chamber of Commerce "Want Uncle Sam to Ship Direct From Portland. Members of the Portland Chamber of Commerce are alarmed lest Congress should adjourn without providing funds for repairs on the Jetty at the mouth of the Columbia. For months they have been urging the Oregon delegation in Wash ington to insist upon the appropriation being made. A few days ago Senator McBride was asked by telegraph to notify the Presideift of the Chamber of Commerce who had charge of this matter in Washington. He wired back that Joseph G. Cannon was chairman of the House conference on sundry civil appropriations. This telegram was read at the regular weekly meeting of tho trustees of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. It was stated in this connection that it was un derstood that Mr. Cannon would not ob ject to this appropriation going through, provided It was agreeable to Mr. Burton, In charge of the river and harbor appro priation bill. After considerable discussion, it was de cided by the trustees to wire both Chair man Cannon and Chairman Burton. Ac cordingly, a telegram was sent to each of them, stating that the people of the Columbia River Valley were exceedingly anxious that the appropriation go through. This Is to be backed up by similar tele grams from Astoria, Salem, The Dalles and Walla Walla, and the trustees of the Portland Chamber hope to have a favor able report from Washington within a day or two. They declare that If the $200,000 needed for repairs on the jetty is not forthcoming this year, it will be a great loss, as the jetty will almost go to pieces, thus mak ing it necessary to do the work all over again. Goods Shipped -via Seattle. A letter was read at the meeting of the trustees yesterday from a Portland mer chant, stating that the goods bought In Portland by the Government for Alaska were being sent to Seattle for shipment. Some thought that perhaps thi3 was because the Government had a transport going up at that time from the Sound. Others thought it was done for other rea sons. The Oregon delegation in Congress was wired the particulars in the cases. These gentlemen were requested to In sist upon Uncle Sam sending his Portland purchases direct, as boats were going from here to Alaska at stated periods. The trustees think that by thus calling attention to this matter they will not only turn this busIncssinto Portland steam boat companies, but will save the Govern ment fielght from here to the Sound. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Nat C. Goodivin Coming. Nat C. Goodwin and Maxlne Elliott will bo seen at the Marquam Grand next Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. The sale of seats will begin Saturday morn ing. They will present for the first time here a new play, entitled, "When We Were Twenty-one," from the pen of H. V. Es mond. In New York, where Mr. Goodwin and Miss Elliott filled a long engagement at the Knickerbocker Theater, the presa and public were unanimous in pronouncing It the best play of the season. Tho piece is a distinct departure from the usual style of playwrights. The story Is simple, and the value of the play In Its buoyancy, freshness and sincerity, and the humor of the situations, character and dialogue. It Is said to abound In senti ment. Mr. Goodwin and Miss Elliott are credited with success of exceptional artistic value. Mr. Goodwin plays an old ish bachelor, devoted to the well-being of his dead friend's son, and oblivious to the love of a young girl who Is his ward. The opportunities afforded Miss Elliott are telling, and the manner in which she has connected herself In what Is undoubtedly her best role entitles her to equally share the honors. Prominent among the players In Mr. Goodwin's support are: Estellc Mortimer, Ysobel Hasklns, Gertrude Gheen. Catherine Mills, Nell O'Brien, Frank Glllmore, Harry Woodruff, Clar ence Handyslde, Thomas Oberle and L. E. Woodthorpe. NO LOST TIME.
