TO ANNUL HIS PENALTY
Japanese appeals case to unit
ed STATES COURT.
Attorney for 31. 3Iatoba Argues That
So tli Flna and Imprisonment
Cannot De Imposed
The agument In the habeas corpuB pro
ceeding of SI. Matoba, a Japanese, who
was convicted in the Municipal Court of
ragrancy and sentenced to pay a line, and
ajso to serve a term of Imprisonment In
the City Jail, was heard by Judge Bell
inger yesterday.
The point made by the attorneys for
the prisoner was that the City Council
has no authority to pass an ordinance
providing both line and Imprisonment as
a penalty for its violation; that the only
penalty shall be a fine or imprisonment.
This means that a person can only be
Incarcerated who has been convicted of
violation of a city ordinance, who is un
able to pay the fine imposed, at the rate
of ?2 per day.
Deputy City Attorney Fitzgerald,
among other things, argued that the
Federal Coyrt has no jurisdiction under
the statutes of the United States to de
termine a- question of this kind In a
habeas corpus proceeding.
Counsel for the Japanese contended to
the contrary, and asserted that tho case
was properly brought because the de
fendant Is not and cannot be a citizen of
'this country. Briefs are to be submitted
to the court, and after an examination
of the same, a decision will bo announced.

FAVORS CITY VIEW PARK
'"Where E. W. Bingham Thinks the
1005 Fair Should Be Located.
PORTLAND. Aug. 13. (To the Editor.)
I agree with Mr. Dosch that It is high
time the site for the 1205 fair should be
selected. But I have my Individual pref
erence of proposed sites, which I venture
to present, with some of my reasons. It
appears the City Park site has about
been abandoned because o its elevation
and the great difficulty In elevating bulld-
lng materials and exhibits, and visitors,
and for some other reasons.
Hawthorne Park and "Willamette
Heights would have to be served entirely
tby street and steam cars, many of the
lines yet to be built, and the approaches
restricted. That might be a good thing
for some street railway companies, but
1 that Is not the object of the fair.
We have one of the most beautiful and
useful rivers In America, extending
, through tho heart of our city, and already
a busy and useful channel for commerce
and travel, and the fair site in my judg
ment should be -upon Its bank. The Uni
versity site is nearly 'five miles below
Morrison street and is near 259 feet ab
ruptly abo'e the river. It has other ob-
Jcctlonable features, and would necessl-
ftate many expenditures to utilize It. It
is not nearly -so desirable as a river site,
in my Judgment, as the City View Park,
near Sellwood. m I understand the owners
' of the City View Park tract havo made a
liberal and-satlsfactory offer of the prem
ises. The approaches to It from the O.
R. & N. and Southern Pacific tracks are
easy and practicable, and also from tho
river front. Tracks could be easily built
and operated from the river front into
the main exhibition grounds and build
ings, upon which to transport heavy ex
hibits which arrive by "water, of which
there will no doubt be very many from
the Orient, and afterwards used for street
cars and passengers. Heavy exhibits a'r
rivlng by vessel could bo swung on the
outside of steamers or ships on to barges
or river steamers and thus cheaply and
conveniently transported to the fair site
Many heavy Oregon exhibits in the shape
of cedar, spruce and fir logs, and many
other exhibits might similarly be brought
to the fair site by water from up and
down the Columbia and the "Willamette.
An Important point In my judgment is
to thus secure the natural and most ad
mirable water lines of transportation for
both exhibits and visitors for the fair
site, and not to depend entirely upon rail
road transportation.
Guild's Lake, in front of Willamette
Heights site, Is nothing but a pondvery
worthless, except for breeding mos
quitoes and Asiatic carp, the fore
ground or liver front filled in with saw
dust and refuse from the mills. It is
filled by the annual Columbia rise, and Is
about as warm as fresh milk in Summer.
No Oregonlan would give a rap for a
ride down upon its waters In Summer
time, whereas, a ride of three miles up
and down the cool and clean Willamette,
between City View Park and Morrison
street, would be a treat for every one.
The steamers operating in concert might
start from Alblna and touch at several
wharves on both sides of the river, and
might thus furnish most agreeable ac
commodatlons every 15 minutes, and at
the very lowest rates, not over 5 cants
each way may be 5 cents for the round
trip.
For those who are In love with Guild's
Lake and its possibilities. I oay: "Long's
Bottom," or swamp, on the north of
City View Park site, has finer possibil
ities than Guild's Lake. Small canals
could be easily dredged through it. and
on the banks all sorts of 'aquatic and
other plants might be cultivated, and
thus all the agreeable features of trav
eling by canoe, or skiff, or small gaso
line or steam launch, would be secured
with the additional attraction of an ex
cursion through either of the three chan
nels around Ross Island and to a stag
ing or wharf anywhere in the city. At
least two or three commodious ferries
running on cables -and operated very
cheaply by electricity or sawdust steam
power, would make quick, safe and satis
factory connection with the Southern Pa
cific Railroad on the west bank and the
Macadam road, and the electric cars
might thus be ferried across from the
west bank and run right into the fair
grounds. As every -resident knows the
"Willamette Is backed up by the Colum
bia, and is like a lake of pure, clear
water from the Clackamas and Upper
"Willamette, from April until October.
"We used to think It was good enough to
drink. The city sewers and refuse thrown
Into the river from wharves and vessels
render the river banks below the city and
around the Guild's Lake river front of
fensive, if not unwholesome, whereas,
above the city the water and banks are
fresh and clear, and not unsightly. Bull
FINE NEW BUILDING
WHICH JAMES If. FLOOD WILT, ERECT ON SITE OP ILL-FATED
BALDWIN" HOTEL.
The new Flood building, on Market. Eddy and Ellis street, not only la caa
of the best situated In the business part of San Francisco, but Is one of the
largest structures In the down-town section of the city. The site Is that formerly
jccupled by the Baldwin Hotel, the burning of which made way for tho superb
structure now under way on the lot. Tho new Flood building will have 12 stories,
and will rise to a height above the street of 180 feet, whllo Its foundations
descend to a depth of 35 feet. The Inside finishing will consist of a concrete floor
In the basement, and marble and tile on the floor corridors, they being also wains
coted In marble. The flrst two stories of the building aro to be used for stores,
which may be In number from one to 15. Above will be CS0 offices, either sep
arate or in suites. The etyle of architecture adopted by. Albert Plssls Is based
on the classic Classic orders and details have been used and adapted to the
requirements of a 12-story structure. Large Corinthian columns will extend
through the fifth, sixth and seventh stories, and an arcade with Ionic columns
at the t03 of the building will extend through the 11th and 12th stories. Too
store stories are to be entirely of platcglass In copper frames, with tho exception
of tho pavilions, which are to be of stone. As to the cost, the new Flood struc
ture may be roughly sot down as a $1,000,000 building. James L. Flood Is tho
owner.
Run water and perfect sewerage can bo
had for City View Park at very reason
able exnense. At nresent no doubt many
sewers empty into Guild's Lake, and It j
would be costly to sewer even tho fair
side from Willamette Heights into the
river.
In and about City View Park are many
groves of fir and other trees which would
make the elte attractive for the shade
and variety they would give, and under
proper regulation many tents and Sum
mer houses could be erected to accommo
date families who might come very
cheaply by steamer from both sides of
the river below Eugene and between As
toria and The Dalles on the Columbia.
Excursions of this sort by rail and water,
run right into the fair grounds, and all
under proper management, would bring
about even' man, woman and child In the
Northwest to the fair at a trifling cost.
provided It Is located at City View Park,
just north of Sellwood, and the visitors
stopping at the hotels all over the city
might take any one of a half-dozen lines
of transportation cheaply and economi
cally to reach tho fair grounds. Horsemen
and automobiles on the West Side might
speed along tho White House road and
cross by ferries opposite Sellwood. This
road Is now being widened to 80 feet, and
by fair time could be adapted to all sorts
of travel, Including double bicycle paths,
which would reduce risks of collision. On
the East Side equal facilities could be af
forded. Nothing like these facilities can
be afforded anywhere else than In River
View Park and vicinity. Therefore, I fa
vor selecting River View Park In prefer
ence to every other site that has been
proposed. D. W. BINGHAM,
SWIFT SCOUT SHIPS.
England Lags in One Department of
Sea Efliciency.
London Chronicle.
It is the duty of every Englishman, ac
cording to the measure of his opportun
ity, to assist In waking up the governing
classes. Lord Brassey, who speaks with
much authority on naval topics, raised a
debate In the House of Lords yesterday
afternoon, In the hopo of waking up the
authorities to certain deficiencies In the
sea service of the empire. Britannia is
supposed to rule the waves, and so let us
hope, In the general, she docs. But In
one particular at least she most certainly
does not. She Is altogether loft behind in
the supply of "ocean greyhounds." The
merchant cruisers that sail under the
British flag are not, as they ought to be,
the swiftest vessels afloat.
This means that In one Important de
partment of naval efliciency we arc lag
ging behind other countries. Now, It -is
perfectly true that merchant cruisers can
not be regarded as substitutes for ar
mored cruisers proper. We are glad that
Lord Selborne laid down this proposition
clearly in his reply to Lord Brassey.
Merchant cruisers are not fighters. But
they are scouts, and in war time they
would In that capacity and In some other
ways become most valuable auxiliaries to
battle-ships. This Is common ground.
Let us .see, then, how we stand in-the
matter. The figures produced by Lord
Brassey are striking. Lloyd's Register
gives a list of 2S ocean-going steamships
having a speed of 20 knots. Of these only
seven are under the British flag. " Since
1SS3 11 such vessels have been built for
foreign countries, and only one, the
Oceanic, has been added to the British
fleet. No attempt has been made In this
country to rival the speed attained under
the German flag.

MORE BARTHOLIN CLEWS
CHICAGO POLICE INTERVIEW, A
MYSTERIOUS "WOMAN. .
Two Lanndrr Employes Implicated
Thompson Shows Signs of Break
ing Down Other Crime.
CHICAGO, Aug. 13. The police obtained
their first clew of value In the Bartholin
tragedy tonight, and developments that
will go far toward solving the mystery
are expected within 24 hours. Inspector
Hunt late tonight found a woman who
declared that the morning following the
night Miss Mitchell disappeared in com
pany with Bartholin, she saw Oscar
Thompson, driver for a laundry company,
and who Is now held In custody of the
police: John Claffy, the barn boss for the
same concern, and a man wearing a Pan
ama hat in front of the laundry at day
break. They were standing-, beneath a
bright arc light and she saw them plain
ly. She resided in the neighborhood and
knew both men well.
The woman tonight was confronted with
FOR SAN FRANCISCO.
Thompson, and while ho was forced to
admit that he knew her and that she
knew him, he denied the story. The
woman denied that a light-colored cap,
which Thompson had attempted to throw
away, was the one that "he wore at the
time she eaw him under the electric light.
When asked why be threw the cap away
to wear the one he had on when he waa
arrested, ho hesitated and then said:
"Give me until tomorrow, I will talk with
you then." This plea was taken as an
Indication that Thompson's wall of stol
idity was 'broken down at last by the
strong evidence he hid been confronted
with, and the police think he will toll all
he knows tomorrow. They expect he will
confess to a share In the murders.
Claffy, after Thompson, was confronted
with the woman In black. He at flrst said
he did not know her, but immediately ad
mitted that he did when she called him
by name. Claffy is a man about 45 years
old. The woman repeated the story in
exactly the same way she told It at
first. Claffy denied being with Thompson
and Bartholin at the time, and was im
mediately locked up again.
The police, during the day, received a
number of clews concerning the where
abouts of Bartholin, but none of them
amounted to anything. They admitted to
night that they did not know what had
become of him.
Today the feeling grew stronger that
the body of the young woman found last
Thursday In the field at Seventy-fourth
and- State streets and burled as Miss Mlo
nle Mitchell was not that of the young
woman. Coroner Traeger today was asked
to exhume the body, but inasmuch as the
family of the girl did not Join In the re
quest he declined. He said the body was
so decomposed that such action would be
of little avail. The Coroner's physician
and other well-known medical men, how
ever, state In positive terms that eight
days' exposure could not have effected
such a change In the body.
Working on this theory the police have
sent out tracers to find William J. Bartho
lin and his fianceo together alive. Ef
forts are also being made to identify the
supposed Mitchell body as some one of
the numerous other women who have been
mysteriously missing. The Mitchell fam
ily has taken no steps to clear up the
mystery thereabout, apparently being sat
isfied that the clothing scnttercdabout
tho field where It was found was sufficient
Identification.
It was rumored with a show of posl
tiveness late tonight that Bartholin had
been arrested in Waukesha, Wis., and
had been secretly brought to Chicago.
The Chief of Police at Waukesha at 1
o'clock this morning said that no arrest
had been made In connection with the-
Bartholln case.
Played Cards With Bartholin.
GUTHRIE, O. T., Aug. 13. John Golo
ble, a Guthrie newspaper man. made a
statement today, after seeing pictures of
tho Chlcigo man, that he Is positive that
he played whist during the early part of
Sunday night with William J. Bartholin
In ,thc parlors of the Hotel Royal. In
Guthrie. Two traveling salesmen won
the partners of Bartholin and Goloble.
Goloble s3y3 that the stranger gave a
name that he falls now to remember.i
The last seen of the man here. It Is now
said, was Monday morning. He was con
siderably sunburned, as If having driven
a long distance in the country. No fur
ther trace has been found of the man.
Bartholin Roomer Goes to Chicago.
DENVER, Aug. 13. Milton Edwards,
who roomed at the house In which Mrs.
Bartholin was murdered in Chicago, left
tonight for that city. Chief of Police
Armstrong received from Superintendent
O'Neill, of Chicago, a. tolegraphjc draft
for the money for his railroad fare and
Edwards took the 10 o'clock Burlington
train for Chicago.
Not at Joplln.
JOPLIN, Mo., Aug. 13. The man who
stayed at the Forney Hotel In this city
Monday night, and who was afterward
said to be W. J. Bartholin, the alleged
Chicago murderer, proves to have been a
quarryman named William Stevens, of
Carthage.
WALTER STEBBINGS HELD.
Coroner's Jury Makes No Charge,
but Recommends Investigation.
CHICAGO. Aug. 13. Walter I. Steb
blngs, who on Saturday stabbed to death
Walter A. Scott, president of the Illinois
Wire Company, In the latter'a office In
the Monadnock building, was held to the
grand jury by the Coroner's Jury today.
No charge of crime was made against
Stebblngs. but the jury recommended that
the grand Jury investigate the killing.
Stebblngs testified In hla own behalf at
the Inquest, and stated that at no time
during the time Scott was striking and
kicking him did he knowingly stab him.
The thought of such a thing, he said,
never came to him. He eald that just
before he called upon Scott he had re
ceived a letter. This was being opened
with a paper knife when he went Into
Scott's office. Stebblngs said he was in
a dazed condition from the attack of
Scott, who kicked him and pushed him
from hla office. He struck at Scott, but
did not know he had used the knife.
Miss Myrtle Shumate, Scott's stenog
rapher, testified practically to the same
story, save that ehe said she heard
Stebblngs call Scott a liar. The verdict
is said to be the mildest In the history
of the Coroner's office.
Stebblngs was released from the County
Jail tonight on bonds of $20,000. The ac
tion was In accordance with the recom
mendations of the Coroner's Jury, which
held Stebblngs responsible for the death
of Scott. In view of the fact that the
grand Jury would not convene before Sep
tember 15, the verdict at the inquest,
while holding the prisoner to answer to
the Criminal Court, recommended that he
be released on bond.

VERMIFORM APPENDIX.
A Cnrlons Vestige in Hainan Anato
mical History.
London Chronicle.
People ob a. rule know nothing regarding
the appendix. They talk about appendi
citis, but the organ affected is to them a
profound mystery. Let me endeavor to
make plain the nature of this curious
vestige In human anatomical history. The
digestive system of man. and that of all
other animals. Is a canal or tube, where
of the stonfach Is elmply a dilated part.
Now. beyond the stomach we find tho
Intestine (or bowel), which In man aver
ages 26 feet In length, it Is divided Into
the small Intestine, measuring about- 20
feet, and Into the large Intestine, which
makes up about six feet of the total
length.
Where the small Intestine which la thr
part that Immediately succeeds the
stomach joins the large we find tho
caecum. This, as Its name Indicates. Is
a cul de eac. a kind of blind alley, lying
between the point of junction. Attached
to the caecum we And the appendix, a
little fubc-like vestige, averaging about
three lnchco in length, and of the diame
ter of a goose quill. If the caecum Is a
blind alley the appendix Is a kind of trap,
lying as It does to the back of the cae
cum. When Indigestible things find their
way Into the appendix cherry stones,
grape seeds and even the hairs of tooth
brushes they cause irritation, and when
this irritation goes the length of Inflam
mation we get the ailment known as "ap
pendicitis." The removal of the appen
dix la an operation of modern surgery
which, under ordinary conditions. Is both
safe and successful.

"I am 61 years old. From earliest girl
hood It has seemed Imperative during the
waking hours for me to be constantly at
work. In the getting up of my meals,
the paramount consideration was pleas
ing the appetite rather than the preserva
tion of health.
"As was to be expected, years of toll
and careless . living resulted In the grad
ual 'breakdown' of. my whole system; I
did not realize It until three years ago,
when I was such a wreck, mentally and
physically, that life was a. burden. I
'had frequent attacks of.severe headaches,
accompanied by nausea terrible to en
dure, sluggish liver and kidneys, circu
lation weak, appetite gone, digestion ser
iously Impaired: I was on the verge of
total nervous prostration, and my -condition
seemed hopeless.-
"A friend, who had suffered, from stom
ach trouble and indigestion, told me of
the great benefit she had received from
Grape-Nuts, and I decided to try the
food, and I am thankful for the Impulse
that led me to do It. J began by using
three teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts soft
ened In milk three times a day. In a
week I was conscious of renewed vigor.
My aches and pains lessened; the nerv
ousness disappeared; the fog, that had
enveloped my brain and obscured my
memory was lifted, and In place of rest
less wakefulness came refreshing sleep.
"I continued to Improve until at the
end of three weeks I could add to my
breakfast and supper a baked apple or a
dish of some kind of fruit, and ate more
hearty food at the mid-day meal. I have
had no relapse; my recovery of health Is
a constant surprise and unbounded thank
fulness to mc and mine. I have not
found the fountain of eternal youth, but
I have -found something that so nour
ishes and strengthens my vitality that I
can endure as great an amount of fa
tlsraintr labor, and accomplish as much n.t
I any woman'of my age can reasonably ex
pect." Name given by Postum Co., Bat
