Matters of Interest to Oregon and Washington Will Be Brought to His Attention. Information has been received here to the effect that Howard Elliott, the newly elected prerfdent of the Northern Pacific, and the general officials of the lino will make a visit to Portland and othei coast cities within the next ten days or two weeks. Notice has been received by the local representatives that the general offi cials will be here, and it is believed that President Elliott will be with them. The trip will be in the nature of an introduc tory tour for the new president. Ho is expected to spend considerable time at the chief points along the route, making himself thoroughly acquainted with the line and considering matters of proposed inprovement. The entire system Is to be traveled over by the party before Presi dent Elliott returns to his headquarters at St. Paul to devote himself to the routine duties of his office. According to the information received the party will leave St. Paul and travel westward to Seattle, where a stop of sev eral days will be made. It Is understood that President Elliott desires to look over some of the company's property there, with a view to determining: the advisa bility of leasing it for the erection of business-houses. The officials will then, it is understood, make the trip down to "Vancouver and on to Portland. The visit of the party here Is looked upon as having jio little significance, as it is the general opinion that several matters of great In terest to Oregon and Washington wlU be "brought up for the consideration of the new president. Foremost among these will probably be the proposition to bridge the Columbia Biver, thus doing away with the ferry that Is maintained at a great expense by the Northern Pacific. That the road has planned a bridge across the river and that 7lans for It have been drawn is well liiown. The recent consolidation of the two Northern Pacific branch lines run ning into Vancouver has given rise to the belief that work in the carrying out of the bridge plan Is contemplated. The Visit of President Elliott is looked upon as giving color to these presumptions, and it Is thought that this matter will be one K)f the important ones for his consldera tlon when he roaches Portland. The recent announcement that the Northern Pacific has a party of survey ors going over the line of the proposed route along the north bank of the Colum bia is the basis for the belief that the construction of this road may also be a matter for the consideration of President Elliott. The party will probably remain In Port land several days. THE DELEGATION LEAVES. Passenger Agents Will Work to Win National Convention. i An enthusiastic delegation of local rall- way passenger agents will leave this even ing to attend the annual convention of passenger agents, -which meets In New Orleans November 11, 12 and 13. The del- j egauon is headed by a committee of three consisting of James Casey, of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul; J. P. Jones, of the Southern Pacific, and "William Sea chrest, of the New York Central, which will have charge of the campaign which will be made to bring the convention to Portland In 19M. The entire delegation Is determined to leave nothing undone tow ard securing the meeting for next year, a it is believed that the results which would follow would prove highly advan tageous to the Lewis and Clark Fair. The association consists of some 700 members from all portions of the United States, Canada and Mexico, the individual memL-ershlp being highly Influential. Port land has a very serious competitor in the City of Mexico, which Is asking for it. Some time ago the association promised representatives of the 'Mexican railway's to hold a convention at their capital at eorne future date, no year being desig nated. Now the delegates from Mexico, backed by President Diaz, are asking for the meeting next year. Portland will have th'e solid vote of the Pacific Coast and has received assurances of support from many other sources. The local delegates elieve that they will succeed In captur- ng the prize and are departing full of ope. TO IMPROVE SOUTHERN PACIFIC Bridges Are Overhauled and "Heavy Rails Are to Be Laid. Extensive alterations are In progress on the bridges along the line of the South ern Pacific between Portland and San uTrancisco. The abetter bridges ard- being thoroughly overhauled, the ' wooden bridges are being replaced with modern teel structures and the smaller bridges ,and culverts are being filled In with tearth ballast. As a result of the new work the track will be greatly Improved, and a much better speed schedule will be maintained. The cct is very heavy. Us the company is using the best of ma terials. John D. Isaacs, head of the bridge de partment at San Francisco, is in the city with a party of friends In his private car after a tour of inspection of the Portland 'Frisco line. Mr. Isaacs announces that when the present Improvements are com pleted the road will equal any In the country, and that the company will fol low up the bridge building by laying 90- pound steel rails. The work of replac ing the old rails is completed in Califor nia, and will be commenced at once in Dregon. TIME-CARDS WILL BE REVISED O. R. & N. and Union and Southern Pacific Arrange Conference. SALT 1AXE Oct. 30. An Important meeting of the traffic and operating offi cials of the Union Pacific, Oregon Short Line, Southern Pacific and Oregon Rail road & Navigation Company will be held here Monday- The meeting, it is stated. Is for the purpose of arranging f5r changes in the existing time cards, and discussion of general traffic matters, in cluding the needs of additional rolling stock. The meeting will probably last three days. It Is believed no Important changes in the time cards will be made until after the completion of the Luclen cutoff across Great Salt Lake, now-rapidly ap proaching completion. Tunnel Under River Nearlng Finish. NEW YORK, Oct. 30. Workmen in the first tunnel under the North River from Jersey to Manhattan are rapidly ap proaching the end of their labors, the boring having proceeded to a point within a few hundred feet of the shore. Much still remains to be done, and it is un likely that the tunnel, which is designed lor trolley lines, will be completed by next Spring. It will come to the surface in this city at the foot of Morton street. The tunnel was begun 21 years ago, but work was abandoned after having been pushed a short distance under the river from the New Jersey snore. Laying Rails on Montana Cut-Off. KALISPELL, Mont., Oct. 30. The work of laying the rails upon the Columbia Falls cut-off has begun and will be pushed to an early finish as far as Whltefish. The work of grading the roadbed is completed for five miles out p -Columbia Falls. It is thought that by the last of November, at least, the steel will be laid as far as the new town, and trains run that far. This cut-off will connect the Great Northern with the Northern Pacific Railway. J. W. Ransom Off to Orient. J. W. Ransom, chief clerk of the Port land & Asiatic Steamship Company, left yesterday for a three months' trip to China and Japan. His visit to the Orient will be for both pleasure and business. He will visit the various ports of China and Japan that the ships of his company run to and will gather such suggestions for improve ments as he can. Mr. Ransom will return in January and resume his duties here. Block System Will Be Adopted. COLUMBUS. O.. Oct. 30. General Su perintendent Conners, of the Hocking Valley and allied lines, announced today that the American Railway Association has decided to abondon. on January 1. the operation of all trains by telegraph orders on all double-track roads in the country ..and the substitution therefor of the blocic system. PROM ICR. HERMANN. Began Investigation Into the Land Frauds, He Says. ROSEBURG. Or.. Oct 2S. (To the Edi tor.) In The Oregonlan of yesterday I ART IN NEW YORK The Citizens' union in New York has engaged a poeter artist to aid in the fight against Tammany. Posters, of which that herewith reproduced is an ex ample, are being put up in great numbers. notice a cotnmunlcatI6n from your "Wash ington City correspondent in whfch there is a false Insinuation that I favored se lections by Hyde, of San Franclsco, while I was Commissioner, and that I delayed action in such cases, whereas the truth is that It was I who suspended all such j selections, as the record shows, Immedi ately on receipt of Information that a wrong was being perpetrated on the Gov ernment, and further, that I placed In the hand of the head of the department all the confidential Information I had re ceived, and this now forms the basis for subsequent inquiry. Previous to this I directed the attention of a trusted special agent to the charges made and instituted a prompt Investigation through this means. Your correspondent has, at different times heretofore, and as I think malicious-' ly. Indulged in various covert attacks. In his endeavor to create an impression that I indirectly aided in conveying informa tion to Interested parties of actual or contemplated withdrawals for reserve purposes. Any such suggestion Is as false as it is apparently vindictive. My con stant aim while Commissioner was to enforce the land laws clean-handed, im partially and vigorously, and to this end the office records bear evidence In numer ous circulars and Instructions Issued by me to the local land officers and special agents, urging them to constant vigilance in upholding the laws and regulations. Wherever fraud was discovered, the pen alty was enforced, entries cancelled and the lands unlawfully secured restored to the public domain. As to the scandalous abuse of the lieu land law, I was the first. In various reports made by me to the Department, to urge a repeal or modi fication of that law, which permits such an unfair advantage upon the Govern ment. ' It does not seem consistent that while a hue and cry Is made against one who can only enter 100 acres at $2.50 per acre of timber lands, and who is under the suspicion of the Government, and pursued by special agents, no objection Is urged, and no cry of fraud and specu lation uttered against the rich syndicate standing by and only waiting to appro priate thousands of acres by so-called scrip, based on little value to the orig inal holder, as soon as the timber entries of some poor entrymen are cancelled. The first bill passed by the regular session of Congress should be one which would deal the death blow to the law which permits such unjust conditions. You will excuse the necessity which has prompted me to resent these frequent reflections from your correspondent. Respectfully yours, BINGER HERMANN. Our Impression of the part Mr. Hermann has played In our Washington dispatches hardly coincides with his. The record, on the other hand, seems to us to have coincided with his own narrative of the facts. This was notably the case in connection with the account of the Blue Mountain reserve. Steam Schooner Rainier Wrecked. VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct. 30. The steam schooner Rainier, 179 tons, owned In Seattle, and fishing for halibut In Northern waters, jvas wrecked near Ju neau last Saturday night, and will prob ably be a total loss, according to news brought to Vancouver this evening by the steamer City of Seattle Her crew was saved.

Representative Will Submit Proposi tion to Board of Trade at Meeting Today., The promoters of the Valdez & Copper River Railroad will try and secure Port land capital to construct the proposed line Into the Tanana mining district of Alaska. At the meeting of- the executive com mittee. of the, Board of Trade this after noon Captain Richard Chilcott. of Valdez, will submit a proposition to the assembled Interests and ask for local assistance up on the theory that the building of the new road and the consequent development of the Alaskan mining district will result favorably to the trade of Portland. It is proposed to construct 450 miles of road and Mr. Chilcott is prepared to show tha,t the line will earn 17,000,000 net each year. Ths estimate Is based on the cost of construction and operation and the volume of business which will be han dled. Under present conditions thousands of ton's of freight are annually packed Into CITY CAMPAIGN. the Tanana. country from the Coast points at an enormous expense. This- freight con sists of machinery and miscellaneous supplies, most of which are sold by the merchants of the Puget Sound cities. Mr. Chllcotfs plan provides for a line of steamers from Portland to Valdez. It Is believed that the trade can be secured for Portland provided the steamer line is put Into operation to connect with the Val-' dez. Copper River & Tanana Railroad. The company which Mr. Chilcott repre sents Is an Alaskan corporation, capital ized at $25,000,000, In shares of $100 each. The engineers estimate that the road can be constructed for $20,000 per mile, as the grades are very light. In few Instances ex ceeding 1 per cent. The proposed termi nus. Eagle, Is 450 miles from Valdez, and the distance from Portland to Valdez by water is 1100 miles. If the company re ceives the requisite encouragement the headquarters of the road will be estab lished here and the steamships will be op erated In connection with the railroad.
