Newspaper Page Text8 THE MORNING O REG ONI AN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 1903. MANY TOURISTS ON COAST PARTY ORGANIZED BY PENNSYL VANIA BOAD ARRIVES TODAY. Exeartiea Rates Me for Grand Army EBearapaeat Attract Mack Eastern Travel. A party of tourists, organized by the Pennsylvania Kailroad for the trip to the Pacific Coast, will reach Portland this morning over the Southern Pacific. The party, which is In charge of O. P- Hartel, tourist agent of the Pennsylvania sys tem, Trill spend a day In Portland. The Eastern party Is traveling In a spe cial train. It was organized by the Penn sylvania Railroad In connection 'with the O. A. H. business to San Francisco from Eastern points. Those Grand Army men -who came west with the party left It at Baa Francisco, and th& others, after a three days stopover In San Francisco, and a thorough Inspection of Interesting points in California, started north. The only stop to be made at a North west clt will be in Portland today. The special train does not go through Seattle, and only halts In Tacoma long enough to change engines and receive train orders. At Spokane a stop of like duration Is to bo made. The Pennsylvania party Is to make the Yellowstone Park trip before going East. As the Yellowstone, season is growing late, the party will proceed as soon as possible to the park. After visiting that wonder land the party will proceed eastward by easy stages. The Pennsylvania party Is the first or ganized excursion to be brought north from San Francisco since the Grand Army rates have been in effect. There has been a good movement of travelers from the south for eeveral days, but the travel Is now growing heavier than it has been at any time since the early Spring conven tions. The travel to San Francisco, Induced as a. result of the cheap Grand Army excur sion rates, attracted thousands of visiters from the East, and comparatively few of these perhons are remaining in San Fran cisco during the sessions of the G. A. R. and its kindred organizations. The exodus toward the East is expected to continue during the rest of the week, when the excursionists will be joined by the hun dreds of veterans who came to the Coast to attend the encampment. Railroad men expect the movement of tourists from San Francisco and Seattle to be In effect at the same time. In fact, tho traffic from both directions is already heavy, and is certain to Increase with tho approaching adjournment of the bod ies which drew the excursionists. The effect of the travel aouth from Se attle and north from San Francisco will be to make a large portion of the excur sionists meet in Portland. The result of this Influx of travelers will be a severe tax upon the hotel accommodations, and. Incidentally, will call upon the northern rail lines for more passenger coaches than these roads like to put out. The northern lines are severely taxed by the regular traffic, but the extra crowd will be han dled somehow. Hnilroml Notes. W. H. Myers, general sales agent of the Ienver & Rio Grande Railroad's coal and coke properties. Is In Portland. J. H. Reeves, general freight agent of the Oregon Shor! Line, with "headquarters at Salt Lake, will be In Portland today. James C Lindsey. traveling freight and passenger agent of the Illinois Central, has returned to Portland from a trip through Eastern Oregon. Colonel J. G. Eberest, goneral traveling passenger agent of the Milwaukee, with headquarters at Chicago, Is to be in Port land Monday. Colonel Eberest Is a mem ber of the Chattanooga Park Commission and a prominent G. A. R. man. CARNIVAL TO COST $12,000 Soliciting Committees Are Hard at Work. At a meeting of the Multnomah Ama teur Athletic Club carnival committee last night Superintendent Bentley report ed substantial progress in every lino of work. His little army of men have the bleachers almost completed, and by Tues day of next week the work on the fence will be finished. Considerable work is being done on the grandstand and within a few weeks it will be put in first-class condition, amply safe to contains the large crowd that will congregate In it. According to the estimate of Superinten dent Bentley. the Multnomah Club will be put to an expense of about $12,000, and for this reason the members of tho club and the committees are working with an earnest effort to make the carnival a Success. The question of confetti was up for dis cussion, and the advisability of setting aside certain rights for confetti throwing was considered. No definite action, how ever, was taken. The subscription committee has organ ized for active work and already is busy soliciting. Owing to the faot that the carnival is given by the Multnomah Club many of the business men being members It is expected that a liberal response will be given. At a meeting of the subscription committee it was decided to distribute the work among a number of subcommittees, each in a particular field. The subcommittees follow: Street railways J. C. AInsworth, A. K. Bentley. O. F. Paxton. Lumbering interests R. D. Inman, W. C Francis. B. D. SIgler. Grocery interests H. Wittenberg, Ed ward Holman. A. R. Diamond. Steamers and rail lines D. J.

Subscribers will not be called upon to purchase advertising rnvelopes as has been the practice in the past, but will bo furnished inserts and pasters free. SAVING THEIR STRENGTH Oregon Mnmxfnctnrera Not Enthnsl. aatlc About St. Loci Fair. A disposition Is being shown by Oregon manufacturers to concentrate all their ef forts toward malting a good dLplay of Ihls state's manufactured products at the Lewis and Clark Fair. In order to do this, the St. Louis exhibit from Oregon will bo sacrificed. Letters have been sent out by the sec retary of the State Commission to all tho prominent manufacturers in Oregon, ask ing them to co-operate with the board ond provide a creditable display of man ufactured goods from this state. It has been jurged that without the co-operation of the "manufacturers, it will b prac tically Impossible to get together tho sort of display planned Thouch. comparatively few of the r n- ufacturers have responded to this appeal, the tenor of all the letters received in re ply is the same. The manufacturers show a lack of interest in the St. Louis exhi bition, but Insist that they are planning to make a full exhibition at the Lewis and Clark Exposition. The only favorable response received by the State Commission thus far came from a factory that tarns out logging en gines. This corporation offered to shew examples of its work if the State Com mission dtfslred to accept a side line of logging engines. The expense of trans porting the machines to St. Louis will probably forbid any attempt to take up the offer. CONFERENCE ENDS TODAY Y. M. C, A. Officers Will Hold Fisnl Session. Three sessions of the annual conference or Y. M. C. A. officers of the Pacific Northwest were held yesterday, and the conference will end with a final session this morning.

ALDRICH ON FINANCE BILL So Asset Currency, but a. Simple, Con servative Pleasure. NEW YORK, Aug. 20. The members of the Senate subcommittee, which has been considering a new currency measure, have given up the idea of attempting to reach an agreement upon any asset currency plan, says a World dispatch from Provi dence, R. L Senator Aldrich, the chair man, is authority for the statement that while the committee has not departed from Its determination to devise some simple, conservative measure for the betterment of financial conditions, it has. decided to exclude from the bill any reference to as set currency of any other detail upon which a disagreement of Senate and House would be likely. "It is tho belief of that committee that In a short' time before Congress is con vened it would be practically Impossible to frame, with any hope of Its adoption, a comprehensive currency measure that would embrace all the larger questions which will yet have to be dealt with. The energies of the committee, therefore, are being devoted to paving tho way for the passage of a simple bill to meet present needs. When the formal conference of the committee Is resumed in the near fu ture at Senator Aldrich's home, .the new measure will be drafted. SHIP BOY'S BODY ON CAR I'ennnylvnnla Couple Try to Keep Death of Son Quiet. MOXONGAHELuC Pa., Aug. 20. The bloodstained corpse of a 5-year-old boy was discovered yesterday by the baggage man on a Pittsburg. Virginia & Charles ton railroad train en route to Dravos burg. Tho body was packed tightly in a large coffee can and was wrapped in tho blood-soaked folds of a woman's dress. The only mark on the body was a bullet hole In the breast.

They said their names were Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Jublller, of Tucker, and that the boy was their son who had accidentally shot himself with his father's revolver. When they found ho was dead, they decided to keep the matter quiet and bury him privately at Dravosburg. NEGROES FLEE FOR LIVES Entire Population of Texas Town Fears a It nee Riot. CHICAGO, Aug. 20. A dispatch to the Record-Herald from Dallas. Tex., says: News from Whltewrlght, Tex., Is to the effect that all the negroes of the town, more than 10) persons, have fled, for fear of a race war. A negro attacked a white woman about a weeK ago, and that night a negro accused of the offense was hanged by a mob, but was cut down before he was dead, by the Sheriff and a posse. No tices were posted ordering all the negroes to leave the place, and the blacks fled. A Texas & Pacific negro excursion from Louisiana and Eastern Texas to El Paso, arranged recently, has been declared off, on protests from the Mayor and Chief of Police at El Paso, who feared race trouble. NEED NOT FEAR AMERICA Gerninny'n Suecenn In Selling Abroad Certain With Good Times. BERLIN, Aug. 20. James Speycr, the New York banker, in an interview on general financial conditions today, is quoted as saying: 'Geimany has nothing to fear from American competition so long as the United States Is prosperous. America's prosperity means Germany's success In selling abroad. Therefore there is every reason for the Germans to wish the Amer icans good luck and to cultivate their good will." Doubtful About the Law, The friendly lawsuit to test the legality of the act under which the proposed steel bridge is to be built is to be brought, if brought at all, by the contractors, the Pacific Bridge Company. City Attorney McNeary said yesterday that the city is satisfied with the legality of the district assessment under the new law, and is not inclined to raise the question at all. The manager of the bridge company says that when the matter was first brought up. Mayor Williams thought it might be ad visable for a suit to be brought to settle tho question of the legality of the law. but on looking further into the matter he concluded that there was no necessity for the suit. The bridge company's lawyers are now looking into tho matter, but have not arrived at a decision. If when they conclude their investiga tions they consider it advisable, the suit will be brought There is nothing in the way of "sparring for time" in this mat ter; the company simply desires to be satisfied as to the legality of the law be fore beginning operations. Try to Save Woo Sheolc Lawyers acting for Woo Shook, charged with robbery by the San Francisco police, have served a writ of habeas corpus on Chief Hunt, and the case will be argued today before Judge Cleland.

OBSTACLES TO . FERRY THE LANDING SITES AT SELLWOOD CLAIMED. BY V. S. MARQUAM. Right of Way Mnat Also Be- Obtained Tbrosgh Cemetery to the White Horic Road. Residents of Sellwood, who seem to think that the ferry matter is not moving fast enough may rest assured that the committee appointed by .the Executive Board to handle it Is doing all that can be done at present. The first obstacle In the way of carrying out the vote of the people giving Sellwood a free ferry is in securing landings on both sides of the river. On the West Side a right of way must be secured to the White House road through the land of the Cemetery Asso ciation from the river. Whether any great difficulty will be encountered in this procedure remains to be seen. On the Sellwood side the committee has run counter to the claims of IT. S. Mar quam to the ferry franchise at the foot of Spokane avenue, where it is proposed to. land the ferry. In order to ascertain on what basis this claim rests, the matter has been placed in the hands of City At torney L. A. McNary, who is now look ing into the matter. It is understood that Marquam lays claim to a ferry franchise to all the streets of Sellwood, which, if well founded, would necessitate securing the right to land the ferry from him. The Sellwood Real Estate Company did re servo the ferry and street-car rights In Sellwood, and Marquam claims he ob tained his ferry rights from the company. Just what the situation is will be de veloped in the course of the Investigation undertaken by the City Attorney. The right to land on both sides of the river must be secured before much progress can be made toward establishing the Sell wood fern. Selling the $15,000 worth of bonds and building the boat are a com parative!) small part of the work of the committee, and the easiest features of the project. SHE.YA CREEK. MINING DISTRICT. Much Development Worlc Being Done There by Portland Men. Edward Renfer, who has Just returned from Huckleberry Mountain, in the Shcna Creek mining district, says that a great many owners of claims are working on leads in the mountain, searching for the true ledges. The mountain, he says, is streaked with leads, and while he was there he could hear blasting in many di rection's. Mr. Renfer Is Interested In the Northern Light & Bonanza Quartz Com pany, which has sunk a tunnel 300 feet into the side of the mountain. Mr. ' Renfer took In over the trail the rails and cars for the tramway to be laid In the tunnel. It was a hard Job to get the iron along the narrow path, but it was accomplished by a single packhorse In seven days. The long rails were very unwieldy and hard to get along the trail, in which there arc sharp turns, and which is Hanked by standing trees and fallen logs. The tunnel will now be extended 50 feet. While there Mr. Renfer did some ex ploring and took up another claim. He brought home somo ore from the end of the tunnel, which is now being assayed. Mining experts who have examined the ore seem to think that it will assay high in silver and copper. It is evident that Shena Creek mining district will be thor oughly prospected, and If the ledges are worth putting up crushers on, the tacf. will be ascertained as a result of the work now being done thore by Portland men and others. MAKE MILWAUKIE CLEAN. Marshal Will Enforce Ordinance Pa.ixed by the Council. The Council of Milwaukle has placed upon the shoulders of Marshal Jesse A. Keck the very heavy burden of enforcing the ordinance for cleaning up that new city. This ordinance was passed at the last meeting of the Council. The Mar shal has caused copies to be posted in three conspicuous places in Milwaukle, so that every citizen may read it. Marshal Keck said yesterday that tho ordinance would be enforced fully. He will give the people until next Monday to clean up their rubbish, the accumulation of many years. This includes tin cans, wire, scraplron and debris of every kind. The Marshal will buy a wheelbarrow and do the work of citizens who fail to com ply with the ordinance, and will then charge up the same to the property-owners. The object of the ordinance was to make a clean town. The penalty for fall ing to comply with tho ordinance is a fine not to exceed $100 or imprisonment. As Milwaukle has no Jail, the imprisonment clause is void. Will Be Lnr?e Dredger. Joseph Supple will send to Glenn's Fer ry, Snake River, the stern-wheel tender craft he has finished. It is 40x10 feet long, and is for the Raber Dredger Company. Mr. Supple has sent a crew of men to Glenn 8 Ferry to put together , the big dredger he shipped up there, knocked down, some time ago. The force will be at work on the dredger several months. This dredger will be the largest and most expensive ever designed for the Snake River sandbar, and has many new fea tures not . used in the ordinary river dredger. Ennt Side Note. W. H.

The fact that two messages of the same date reached the department, with an interval of four days between them, shows how ir regular this mode of communication has become. Tho only dispatch received to day from Minister Beaupre was dated the 12th, and was very indefinite, although It conveys the impression that further ef forts are being made tot secure favorable action upon the treaty.
