Special Steamer Will Be Placed at HI Dlttponnl for His Trip to New York. BERLIN, Jan. 14. It has been an nounced that Prince Henry, of Prussia, on his return from the United States, will be deputed to renresent Emperor William at the coronation of King Edward. The correspondent of the Associated Press here has received a telegram from the North German Lloyd Steamship Com pany at Bremen, saying that the date of Prince Henry's sailing has not yet been fixed. The telegram concludes as fol lows: "It Is probable that the company will send a fast liner, not in the published sailing schedule, to convey Prince Henry to New York." An arrangement has been made between the German Admiralty and the North German Lloyd Steamship Company, by which the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern, when she arrives at Hoboken, will be freshly painted in order to remove all traces of her long voyage, and that she may present her handsomest appearance for the festivities. German paper- print long cablegrams from New York dwelling on the interest developed by Prince Henry's projected visit, describing the tentative plans for his entertainment and giving the com ment of the Ncv York press on the mat ter. These latter have created the best impression here. Prince Henry will ar rive at Berlin next Thursday, where he will remain for the court festivities. PlniiM for the Prince Reception. WASHINGTON, Jan. 14. Cable advices received at the German Embassy here In dicate that Prince Henry will arrive off New York about February 18. While Dr. Von Hollebcn, the German Ambassador, has not yet been advised fully as to the details of Prince Henry's visit, it is the opinion of the embassy officials that the stay will not extend over a fortnight. The vojago of the Hohenzollern will be so timed that the vessel will arrive off New York in season to Join the steamer which will bring Prince Henry. so that he may board the yacht and then proceed on to "be met by the reception fleet of naval vessels and steamers, which will escort the Hohenzollern Into New York harbor. The President is showing a great deal of interest in the arrangement for Prince Henry's reception and he himself called the matter up in the Cabinet today. It was jet too early to map out a definite programme for the reception, but to Sec retaries Hay and Long were left the ar rangement of details. It Is probable that when the Hohenzol lern takes Prince Henry from the liner, he will be escorted down to Sandy Hook by the Olympia or the San Francisco. Both of these fine ships have been almost completely reconstructed. As It has been suggested that the Captain of either of the ships would not have sufficient rank to meet the German Admiral, Secretary Long has taken under consideration the propriety of bringing Rear-Admiral Rob ley D. Evans for this occasion. He Is known personally to Prince Henry, who was in command of the great naval dem onstration at Kiel, where Admiral Evans represented the United States on the cruiser New York. AIMED AT UNITED STATES. Proposed Amendment to the German. Tariff BilL BERLIN, Jan. 14. Baron Heyl zu Herr isheim (National Liberal) proposed an amendment to the tariff bill in committee today. It was aimed at the United States. The amendment authorizes the ssyecaraentaAply to .Imports Jcom any foreign state such regulations respecting the consular authentication of Invoices of such Imports, the declaration of their market value and the cost of their pro duction, as may be enforced against Ger man exports. The language of the amendment is fashioned after the Ameri can law, and Is regarded by the commit tee as undoubtedly designed to offset the custom requirements of the United States and to satisfy the complaints of German manufacturers. This amendment has not yet been discussed, but inquiry of some members of the committee has elicited the statement that It is more than likely to be adopted. There was a tempestuous session to day. Supporters of the bill put In prac tice a new set of rules which enabled the majority to close the debate and so de feat the tactics adopted by their oppo nents. The latter, however, when they found violent vocal protests unavailing, began to introduce slightly-varied word ings and amendments which were reject ed. Among other resolutions proposed was one appointing ajgovernment com mission to study the effects of the tariff in promoting syndicates and trusts. The resolution empowered Ihe government to suspend duties when any protected article produced in Germany is sold lower abroad than at home. Herr Fls'chback (Radical Association) announced to the committee that the German wife manufacturers aro selling their products at 25 marks per xnetrlo hundredweight at home, and at 14 marks abroad, and that bar-Iron and rolled iron are sold for 125 marks per ton at home and for 100 marks abroad. WXtlGHT BRIBED THE PRESS. Method of the Financial Papers of London. . LONDON, Jan. 14. The Bankruptcy Court was engaged yesterday and today with the examination of Whltaker Wright on the affaire of the London & Globe, British America and other corporations, of which he was managing director. Very little developed beyond what has already been cabled, until today, when Wright revealed the extraordinary meth ods of the 'financial press of London. "It is well known in the city," said Wright, "that all the daily financial press and those publishing reports of transac tions on the Stock Exchange and every thing of that kind, will not do so and will not assist companies in any shape or form unless they have a consideration, in some form or other." Asked if it was the custom in the city to benefit the press to the extent of 9000 in the case of each company floated, Wright said the price was higher. He proceeded to name the Financial Times, the Financial News, the Citizen and oth er papers as beneficiaries from the Lon don & Globe Corporation. When ques tioned as to whether representatives of Henry Labouchere's Truth had not large ly benefited, Wright replied: "No, the beneficiaries were connected with the Citizen, and one of the editors of Truth Is proprietor of the Citizen." Wright named Editors Brousson and Spensley as beneficiaries through the Citizen, and also referred to others con nected with the Financial Times and the Financial News, including Harry Marks, editor of the last named paper.' Pursuit of Oeiret LONDON, Jan. 14. Perhaps the most important point in Lord Kitchener's week ly report dated Johannesburg, Monday, January 13, Is the omission of all men tion of General Dewet, from which it Is deducted that the British Commander-in-Chief Is more than usually hopeful of ef fective results from his present effort to surround Dewet. Since the disaster ' at Zeefonteln strong British columns have been persistently dogging Dewet's force, while armored trains have prevented him from crossing the railroad line and have forced him northward. Lord Kitchener is supplying Dewet's pursuers with relays and remounts. Lord Kitchener, in a dispatch from Jo hannesburg, dated Monday, January 13, reports the narrow escape of General Botha from . capture by General Bruce Hamilton. Hearing of a concentration of Boers at Knapdar. Bruce Hamilton went to the spot, but hardly to find that the Boers had been given the alarm and that 400 of them were trekking, three miles distant, with General Botha In a cape cart leading. Bruce Hamilton chased the Boers for seven miles, until his horses gave out, and captured 22 Boers and quantities of ammunition and stqek. LEFT BOOTH FOR DOWIE. The Commaader-ln-Chlcfa Sen-In-Lavr and Daughter Leave Army. LONDON, Jan. 14. The Central News learns that on account of grave doctrin al differences, General Booth's son-in-law and daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Booth CUb born, have resigned from the Salvation Army anfl joined the church of John Alexander Dowie. According to the Dally Mail, Mr. and Mrs. Booth-Clibborn had many communi cations from Dowie while the latter was in England. They demanded the right to preach the Dowie doctrines of faith healing while remaining In the Salvation Army. This demand was refused by General Booth. The leaders of the Army say their secession from the Army will riot cause a serious split in that body. ItuHuIa BHdsret. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 14.

The design of Joseph M. Huston, a Philadelphia architect, haa been accepted, but for some reason the detail plans have not yet been made public. A perspective of the Capitol was, however, placed on exhibition at Harrlsburg last week, and from thla the aboe photograph was taken. The building- la to cost $4,000,000. ways and means 435.547.75S rubles. The report of the Finance Minister, M. De TVitte, which accompanied the budget, says the equilibrium of the budget leads to the conclusion that the Empire's finances are in a perfectly satisfactory condition. "Our monetary system," says the Min ister, "leaves nothing to be desired and our railroads continue to develop under good conditions. Notwithstanding the vexations and complications of recent years, owing to bad harvests, the scarcity of capital and the embarrassments of cer tain branches of our industry, the general prosperity of our country shows no sign of decline." Prince of Wales' Visit to Berlin. BERLIN, Jan. 14. The North German Gazette, which contradicted the statement from England that Emperor "William presslngly Invited the Prince of TVales to bo present at Berlin on the occasion of the Emperor's birthday, January 27, to day published an authoritative contradic tion of it. It now seems that Sir F. C. Lascelles, the British Ambassador to Ger many, asked Emperor William on New Year's day; "Would it be agreeable to your majesty that his royal highness the Prince of Wales, visit you on the oc casion of your birthday?" "Agreeable Is not the word," responded Emperor Will iam. "I should be rejoiced if he would visit me." This proposed visit of the Prince of Wales Is received here with the utmost coldness. Not a Political SHaKlon. BERLIN, Jan. 14. Tho inference drawn by the London Times today from the fact that Admiral von Baron Senden-Blbran chief of the Naval Cabinet of Emperor William, had delivered to King Edward a letter from the German Emperor, has been quickly dispelled by an official note to the effect that the Admiral was not entrusted with any political mission, but was merely paying an annual visit to friends interested in the Helioland yacht races. An anti-dueling league has been organ ized at Kassel, which intends to uphold Emperor William in his views on dueling, and by vigorous social agitation make the practice socially unpopular. The Barcelona Strike. BARCELONA, Jan. 14. The metal workers here at a meeting decided to con tinue the strike, which is considered not unlikely to last for six months. The metal masters have addressed a memorial to the Senators and Deputies, making a final ap peal to the metal workers. The masters say the factories will be opened' tomorrow on a basis of 10 hours a day and offer to consider the strikers' just claims. But if the strikes and riots continue they will close their factories and claim the right to emigrate and place themselves under the protection of a foreign flag. An Aristocratic Wedding. LONDON, Jan. 14. There was a great gathering of members of the aristocracy at the wedding of the Earl of Wlcklow to Lady Gladys Hamilton, daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Abercorn, here today. Life Guardsmen belonging to the bridegroom's regiment lined the aisles and the band of the regiment furnished the music. The archbishop of Armagh offici ated. The presents, which Included "gifts from King Edward and Queen Alexandra, were magnificent, diamonds predominat ing. To Save the Wet Indie. LONDON, Jan. 15. The Dally Mail says that at the Cabinet Council held Monday it was determined that steps should be taken to prevent the ruin of the West Indies. "We undersand this to mean," says the Dally Mail, "that the British delegates will be able to announce at the Brussels Conference that unless sugar bounties are abolished, Great Britain will prepare to impose a countervailing duty on bounty-produced sugar."

Hla Coanection With Neely and the Latter's Letter The Prisoner Confronted by Reeves. ' HAVANA, Jan. 14. The examination of Estes G. Rathbone, formerly Director General of Posts of Cuba, was continued this afternoon, when the trial of the charges growing out of the Cuban post office frauds was resumed. Private cor respondence between Rathbone and ex-Postmaster-General Smith was Introduced. Rathbone said he did not take part in any campaign having for its purpose his ap pointment as Civil Governor of Cuba. Some overzealous friends began one, but he did not Indorse it, and wrote to the President and Postmaster-General saying he did not want the position. The Gov ernment introduced a letter from Charles F. Neely. which accompanied a petition to the President asking for the appoint ment of Rathbone. Rathbone said he did not know of its existence until six weeks ago. A dramatic Incident of the trial this afternoon was the confronting of Rath- CAPITOL AT HARRISBURG, bone with Reeves, regarding the state ment Reeves alleged Rathbone made after the latter's return to the United States In November, 1SS9, and two months after the stamps were burned. When Reeves took the stand, Rathbone was sitting opposite him. Reeves said that Rathbone told him that Neely had arranged the matter burning of the surcharged stamps so that fraud would not be discovered. Rathbone here asked Reeves If he was willing to swear to this statement. Reeves ( repuea, "xes, to wnicn itainDone saia: "God help you." Rathbone admitted having received a let ter from Neely after his arrest. He said it was in answer to a cablegram he sant him to return when Inspector-General Charles Burton reported a shortage in , the postal accounts. On the bottom of 1 this letter was written "destroy this let ter." Rathbone said this letter was de livered to him by special agents, and that he opened it In their presence. He said that Neely wrote that he did not want to return then; that Inspector-General 1 Burton was making an unnecessary stir, J and that he would explain everything, sat- j lsfactorily by letter. Rathbone said he sent a copy of Neely's letter to ex-Postmaster-General Smith, and that he had a conference with the heads of different de partments immediately after the frauds were reported. He said that C. M. Rich, Neely's assist ant, stated that he had seen Neely do something which he did not understand, hut that he did not remember Rich stat ing that Neely wrote on the books, "ap proved by the special agents." Rathbone said he had stated to Inspector-General Burton that in charging the Havana of fice with stamps, it did not make any difference to Washington whether they were In the form of surcharged stamps or otherwise and that the total amount of the value of the stamps was charged. He said he had consulted General John R. Brooke, then Governor-General of Cuba, about burning the stamps, and that he had also written Postmaster-General Smith on the matter. Every one had pride in circulating the new Cuban stamps, said Rathbone, and -when they were issued ho advised burning the old stamps, as they took up too much room in the vault. No account was made of the burn ing of the stamps, he added, and it was natural that Neely and Reeves "should be appointed on the commission. AT ICING EDWARD'S CORONATION. Representative of the United States Are Named. WASHINGTON, Jan. 14. The Cabinet meeting today was devoted largely to the consideration of the appointments of rep resentatives of this country at the corona tion of King Edward VIL At the conclu sion the following designations were an nounced by the Secretary of State: Special Ambasador, Whltelaw Reld, of New York; representative of the United States Army, General James H. Wilson, of Delaware; representative of the United States Navy, Chaptaln Charles E. Clark, commander of the battle-ship Oregon dur ing the Spanish-American War, and now Governor of the Naval Home at Phila delphia. There are to be three secretaries, as fol lows: J. P. Morgan, Jr., son of J. Pierpont Morgan, of New York; Edmund Lincoln Bayles, a barrister of New York, and William Wetmore, son of Senator Wet more, of Rhode Island. Mr. Choate, our Ambassador to London, who sailed today for his post, will not, strictly speaking, have any official con nection with the special Embassy. This was the case during the golden Jubilee when Ambassador Hay was not even ex officlo a member of the special representa tion of the United States Government. As a matter of fact, however, the United States Ambassador is a very Important figure in the ceremonies, and is In al most every instance attendant upon all the functions In which the special repre sentatives participate. General Wilson had a conference today with Secretary Root at the War Department and formally accepted the appointment as military member of the special Embassy. .The approaching visit of Prince Henry of Prussia to attend the launching of the Kaiser's yacht, now building In New York, also was considered. No definite plans for the Prince's entertainment have been arranged, but It is tho purpose of the President and Secretary of State to re clve and entertain the Prince in a way to do the highest honor to the Kaiser and to the German people. Several notable functions are certain to be arranged, in-1 eluding a state dinner at the White House. Nothing will be left undone to make the Prince's first visit to the United States a memorable one. After the Cabinet meeting it "was an- 1 nocaced that Judge Nathaniel Shlpman, United States Circuit Judge for the Sec ond District, comprising Vermont, New York and Connecticut, had resigned, ow ing to falling health and that William K. Townsend, of New Haven, had been ap pointed to the vacancy to take effect March 22. Straus a Member of HsKHe.-CoHrt. WASHINGTON, Jan. li-Oscar Strauss, of New York, formerly United States Minister to Turkey, today was ap pointed as a member of the committee on arbitration atThe Hague. The ap pointment is to fill Ihe vacancy caused by the death of ex-President Harrison. Stand of Chicago Unionist. CHICAGO, Jan. 14. Eighty thousand trades unionists of Chicago have decided to take uniform action against the build ing of warships and naval machinery In any but Government shops. FREE BATHS IN OTHER CITIES Mr. Samuel Describes "What He Savr in St. Paul Other Enterprise. ST. PAUL, Minn.. Jan. 6. (To the Editor.) I have Just completed a most thorough examination of St. Paul's free bath system, and I realize more than I J ever did before, that the projectors of i the Portland free baths have undertaken I a big contract. Notwithstanding this, however, I am glad that it has been un- dertaken. The Commissioner of the bath PENNSYLVANIA. system here, kindly gave me considerable of his time and explained the absolute satisfaction that the citizens of St. Paul express with having erected this insti tution. Previous to the creation of the bath system, the hungry maw of the river claimed 12 or IS youngsters each season. Not a single case of drowning has been recorded since the baths were opened. From a sanitary standpoint they are also proving a great blessing. Although the population Is constantly Increasing, there has been a noticeable falling off In the Summer death rate. To tell you about the details of the Institution and Its work of maintenance, would fill sev eral columns. V have gained consideraole knowledge today and after I examine the baths of Boston and Brookllne, Mass., I hope to be somewhat of an expert on free baths. I was very much Interested In another institution hero which was brought to my attention. I refer to "the Baby Day Nursery." Mothers who work for a liv ing bring their babies here for the day; they are fed and taken care of, and If ill, receive the very best medical attention, a)l free of charge. The city foots the hills, as a business proposition. When this is clearly looked at from all points of the compass. It is certainly a good Investment. Several years ago Portland Imported a lot of little foreign songsters and turned them loose to the cold charity of the world. St. Paul values her songsters more highly. All over the parks I noticed pretty, whlte-palnted and red-roofed, lit tle bird houses. I am told that hundreds of them have already been put up and more are being added to constantly. Every little house rias a veranda, undoubtedly to permit the baby birds to take a little airing -without endangering their necks. The doors of these little houses are of various sizes, which, no doubt, make the birds understand what particular species is intended to reside therein. L. SAMUEL. DAILY CITY STATISTICS.

The members of the Portland Kennel Club held their annual meeting last even ing in the rooms of the Oregon Mining Stock Exchange, in the Chamber of Com merce building. President Frederick V. Holman, In his address, stated that the club was In a very prosperous condition. The treasury of the club contains some thing over $SO0, over 5200 of which was realized from the last bench show. It is the Intention of the club to hold bench shows every year in this cit7 so long as the public will patronize them. The show last year was very successful, but tho building was somewhat crowded. If some of the plans advanced in the preliminary discussion held at the meet ing are carried out the show this year will be one of the largest ever held in the Northwest. It was proposed that the Exposition building be secured, which will give the club abundant room In which to exhibit the dogs. A larger judging ring will also be made, so that all may be able to sec the dogs In the ring. The question of Judges is, perhaps, the most delicate subject In regard to bench shows. Last year the Judges did not give the satisfaction expected. Of course, since every man thinks that his dog Is the best, it 13 Impossible to give entire satisfaction. This year the selection of judges will be handled most carefully, and it Is very likely that at least one of them will be brought out from the East. When it came to tho election of officers for the ensuing year, Mr. J. A. Taylor moved that a nominating committee of three "be appointed to select the officers and that the meeting be adjourned one week for the election. The purpose of this motion was to secure a larger at tendance at the postponed meeting. The motion was carried but was afterward re considered and lost. All of the officers were unanimously elected. The follow ing officers were chosen: President, Dr. E. F. Tucker; vice-president, J. A. Tay lor: secretary, TV. TV. Peaslee: treasurer, TVlllIam Goldman; directors, TV. F. Bur rell, Frank Thorn,-and E. House. Mr. Taylor, Mr. Peaslee and Mr. Bur rell were re-elected. Tho retiring offi cers were: Frederick V. Holman, presi dent; P. TV. Llngley. treasurer, and Di rectors C. F. TVlllis and T. J. A. Tiede man. MEDALS GO TO SCRATCH MEX. Team Bovrln a Total Score of 730 at Multnomah Club. Again: the scratch men have the medals to adorn their breasta as the results of the weekly bowling contest at the Mult nomah Club. This time they bowled a respectable score. With Kerrigan and Craft, the two substitutes, with 211 and 191 respectively, the team finished with a total of 739. Culllson also did some good work, but there Is room for Improvement In Mallory's work If he Is to get on the club team In the Interstate contest. A new bunch composed of Oliver, Kahn, Gllman and Van Duser gave the winners a run for their money, but could not keep up the pace. Brigham's aggregation bowled a good game. Rauert's team also bowled, but the fact that they finished at the bottom Is credited to Ford. Tuesday night only two teams bowled Ball's and the "Alley Pounders." Holmes has given up the hopeless task of trying to win the mednb?. and his team has gone 'way back. Ford deserted to Rauert, Syd ney doesn't want any more bowling, and Holmes says that he Is going to get a rest until he gets his eye back. He -ftM moat likely turn" up In a few weeks under an assumed name, like that fellow who so gracefully resigned from the scratch team. Neither Ball's team nor Church man's did any good work.
