THE MORNING OEEGONIAN, SATLTKDAY, UUTOJ5JSK 31, lUUif.
TO MAKE INSPECTION TRIP
PRESIDENT ELLIOTT OF NORTH
ERN PACIFIC IS COMING.
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.

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.
Charred Bones of Man In Barrel.
DUBUQUE, la.. Oct. 30. The charred
bones of Justus Harwlg. a prominent cit
izen of Dubuque, were found In the ashes
of a barrel near Volga City today. The
skull had been fractured. It Is believed
that Harwlg was murdered.
Root Sails for Home.
LONDON. Oct 30. Secretary of War
Root and Mrs. Root left London today for
Liverpool to board the Celtic, which sails
for New York today. They were bade
farewell at the railroad station by Axn-

CHANCE TO GET TRADE
ALASKAN RAILROAD MAY ES
TABLISH OFFICES HERE.
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.

The coffee drinker who has suffered
and then been completely cured by chang

knows something valuable.
He or she has no doubt about It. A Cali

about coffee In a peculiar way. My hus
band, who has for years been of a very
bilious temperament decided to leave off
coffee and give Postum a trial and as 1
did not want the. trouble of making two-
beverages for meals I concluded to try
Postum too and the results have been that
while my husband has been greatly bene
fited, I have myself received even greater
benefit. When I began to drink Postum
I was thin in flesh and very nervous and

"We have learned our little lesson about
coffee and we know something about

now steadily for the last three years and
we shall always continue to do so. We
have no more use for coffee the drug
