THE MORNING OEEGONIAN, FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1904. MILITIA TO CAMP Northwest States Will. Send Troops'to Idaho. . REGULAR ARMY WILL GO, TOO Military Maneuvers Will-Be Conduct ed by the War Department-Five Thousand Men to Be Mobil ized During Autumn. ' Military maneuvers on a large scale will be conducted in Idaho this Summer for the first time In the Northwest- Ar rangements are now being made between the Adjutant-Generals of the states of Oregon, Washington and Ida.io with Adjutant-General Evans, of the Department of the Columbia, to have the militia of the three states, camp with the regular Army for two weeks next August or September and practice field work. Maneuvers of this kind are not un common in the Eastern states, but have never been known here before. They are becoming very popular and are being encouraged by the War Department In its desire to have the militia become as nearly like the regular Army as possible. Contact with the regulars will teach the rawer militiamen more than they could learn In a lifetime from the military code. Two -weeks of It and they will want to wear their uniforms all the time and snow the lining of their capes like tne troopers. No particular site has been picked upon as yet, but it will be somewhere in the rolling or even mountainous country, where a regiment can be taken out and lost and the rest of the Army be sent to lind it as if It were a hostile force. This will necessitate all the frills of war scouts", advance guard, skfrmlsh line, main body of the army, commissary de partment and rearguard. All the hard ships of war will have to be undergone, wlta the killing leffffut. Besides this, rifle practice, skirmishing, regular drills, reviews and all other practices necessary for proficiency In the art of war will find their place during the encampment. There will be 5000 men in parade every day, a military showing not seen in this part of the country before. All the men under IheDepartment of the Columbia and the militia of the three Nortnwest states and possibly California will be at the en campment. As it would be necessary to transport the California troops over 1000 miles, however, it is doubtful whether they will join the encampment. General orders are now being issued from the offices of the Adjutant-Generals which wlli inform the various companies and troops to be ready for tne Summer encampment. As the general supervision of the Commissary Department will come under the command of the regular service, arrangements will easily be made, 5000 men being a small detachment In the eyes of a commissary officer In the regular Army. BARE EXECUTIVE ABILITY. The New President of the St. Louis Lady Managers. St Louis Republic. In the selection of Mrs. Mary Margarita Manning as Its president, the board of lady managers of the St Louis World's Exposition has secured the services of a woman of rare executive ability, broad views and practical experience to preside over deliberations. Mrs. Manning is the widow of the late Daniel Manning, who was Secretary of the Treasury during President Cleveland's first administration, and who died December 24, 18S7. Mrs. Manning was, before her marriage on November 19, 1SS1, Miss Mary Margar ita Fryer, of Albany, N. T. She is a descendant of pre-Hevolutionary stock, her ancestral lineage embracing such il lustrious names as the Livingstons, Schuylers, Vandams, De Pcysters and Vancourtlands, pioneers In the history of New Amsterdam, now New York. Mrs. Manning was twice elected president-general of the Daughters of the American Revolution, which now consists of about 35,000 members, extending over 45 states and territories. One of the qualifications for membership In this or der provides that an ancestor of the ap plicant must "with unfailing loyalty have rendered material aid to the cause of In dependence as a recognized patriot as a Boldler or sailor or as a civil officer in one of the several colonies or states of the United States, or of the united col onies or states." Mrs. Manning's predecessor as president-general of the Daughters of the American Revolution was Mrs. Adlai E. Stevenson, wife of the former Vice-President of the United States. Mrs. Manning and Mrs. Stevenson represented the Dem ocratic women of the country, while be fore them as head of the society were Mrs. Caroline Scott Harrison, the first wife of President Benjamin Harrison, and Mrs. John W. "Foster, these being repre sentatives of Republicanism. As a leader Mrs. Manning is probably without a peer. She possesses the gra cious charm of manner, tact and kindli ness which go to make a successful leader. She Is tall and handsome and dresses with faultless elegance. She Is a brilliant conversationalist and as a Washington hostess her receptions were the talk of the capital. In appreciation of her ability, she was Belected by the Government as a commis sioner to the Paris Exposition in 1900. While In the French capital she acted in the four-fold capacity of a National Com missioner of the United States, represent ed the women of America at the unveil ing of the statue of General George Washington In Paris, represented the United States Government at the un veiling of the statue of LaFayette, and was chosen as the representative of the American Daughters of the Revolution at the same ceremony. In recognition of her services and un tiring energy, the French government es tablished a precedent by decorating her with the cross of the Legion of Honor after a bitter contest Many of the French officials were strongly opposed to granting this distinction to foreign women for fear it would be Impossible to with stand the importunities of other femi nine candidates. It was argued that since few French women were honored with this mark of distinction, it would be unfair to honor foreigners. But this opposition was swept away by the For eign Office, which approved the recom mendation. which was later approved by the government ooaru. While In Paris there was a literal "tem pest in a teapot" because of a diffcrenc of opinion between Mrs. Manning and tne countess bpotuswooa Mackln. of St Louis, the latter being a member of the Daughters or the American Revolution. The Countess acquired her title from the Vatican. At a meeflng of the Daugh ters of the American Revolution In Wash ington the Countess invited a number of them to attend a tea party and reception at her home in .fans auring the ExdosI tlon. and left the date to Mrs. Manning's selection. Mrs. Manning was president of the Daughters at the time. She declined to name a day to take tea or to parti cipate In any way, on the ground that it wis contrary to tne principles of the so. city for Its members to acquire and use a foreign title -Mrs. Planning is a stick ler for foreign law -and believes !n living up to to the -spirit as well as the latter of the constitution or ine juaugnters. Upon her return to the- United States Sirs. Manning was cnosen -as a repreeen tatlve to the Pan-American Exposition. She was president of the Naw York' State Board, She acquitted herself with credit, on this occasion and did yeoman service for the Buffalo Exposition. Mrs. Mann'.ig Is as well smown in W.vchiigton and Paris as she Is In her home town. Albany. Even after the death of her husband, she spent her Winters in Washington and during the second ad ministration of Mr.. CleveLona her-'an-nual breakfast" to Mrs. Cleveland was a function of such stately proportions as were seldom seen srywhera. Since her retirement from the presi dency of the Daughters of the American Revolution early In 1901, Mrs. Manning has spent her Winters In New York. ELLERY STILL. IN THE HELD. He Denies That His Italian Band Has Disbanded. LOS ANGELES, March 14, 1904. (To the Editor) Will you kindly allow me suf ficient space in your valuable columns to set at rest at once and forever the lying stories which are being circulated about my band. My attention has been called to an article in a publication called the "Focus," which states that the Royal Italian Band was recently disbanded In San Francisco and that eight of its mem- tiers are now In Portland and are soon to be joined by 16 others to reorganize the band. The facts of the case are that 12 Inferior members of Ellery's Royal Italian Band engaged In an outrageous Or. . Mosessohn. plot last October to "destroy our band, lured on by the money and delusive nrnmlsps of Rivela. our leader of last year. Twelve musicians left us on No vember 1 In San Francisco, and under the direction of Rivela formed tnem selves Into a band which they called "Royal Italian' in tne nope oi injuring mvspif nnrl their former comDanlons. In stead of which the Ellery Band has never lost a performance and has been steadily winning new laurels, while the false "Royal Italian" made a disgraceful fiasco. Rivela and a. few of his henchmen re mained In San Francisco, while eight others left him ana went to ronwna, K-hPT-p thpv are seekintr to deceive the public with unblushing lies. I believe that the sacrifices which I have made to maintain the standard of great band music will Induce you to publish this letter in order that our numerous friends in the Northwest may know that the Ellery Band Is still In the field, a nail hundred strong and with colors all flying.

The naner this morning contains the views of several well-known Indianapolis ladies on the subject of beautifying tne city, and might have had many more on the same line, no doubt, as most Intelli gent women have decided' opinions in re- crovA - IranrnvnmCTits Tiflpded in munic ipal housekeeping. While the chief feature of the new Civic Improvement leagues plan, so far outlined, involves the plant-inn- of flowers and vines and the conse quent decorating of bare walls and bits of ground, it will be noticed that tne women quoted put stress on neatness and cleanliness as tne first and most necessary reform. The supreme desire and the con stant struggle of the accomplished house ironnar 1q tn hn.ve her nremlses invested with the charm that only immaculate cleanliness can give, uurnisnings ana sxnrtitinno nrf secondary to the sweet and healthful atmosphere that belongs to the house spotlessly neat in all Its ap pointments. This attraction, too is one thnt mn- t found as well In the two- room cabin as In the most pretentious mansion perhaps is more oiien iouna there. The first thing the housekeeper under takes in entering into possession of a new dwelling is to make it cleanf and It Is nat ural and logical that she should apply the same rule of operations to city Improve ments, more especially as Indianapolis is so woefully lacking In the rudiments of the nrt of neatness. The cleaning of alleys and vacant lots, the enforcement of existing ordinances against the scattering of garbage, ashes and other waste ma terial and the securing of new 'official reg ulations against other sanitary offenses, if necessary, present themselves to the housewifely mind as more Important than the covering of walls and fences with vines. Of course. It may be possible to carry on the two branches .of work in conjunction, to inculcate principles of neatness along with a love for flowers, T-Vmnc tVint Is the ournose of the Civic League. Possibly It Is thought that the transformation or ironi ana uacK yards Into bowers of beauty will inspire in the owners of these yards an ambitloif to keep the adjoining- alleys free from rubbish, but It seems reasonable to sup pose that this part of the reform may be expedited by object lessons and enforce ment of laws. At all events, the sugges tions of the ladles are worthy of atten tion, and it will also be well for the Im provement society to reflect that flowers and vines are short-lived and for more than half the year cannot even cover the unsightly spots, while unclean alleys and garbage-laden commons are in evidence the year round. Papers Stolen From Witness in Court. NEW YORK, March 17. Checks and documents representing $30,000 are report ed to have mysteriously disappeared from the coatpocket of a bank cashier during a hearing in bankruptcy proceedings against the American Finance and Mort gage Company, a concern alleged to have received for Investment about $2,000,000 inrcelv from persons in Ohio and other Western states before It collapsed several months ago. When It was discovered that the papers had disappeared, every person In the room consented to be searched, but they were not found. Sev eral persons had left the room, prior to the search. The checks were canceled ones, used during the examination of a trust com pany's cashier. In an effort to show who received the Immense profits of the con cern. When the cashier, concluded he put the package into a coat pocket. Sev eral men Interested In the case left the room, and a few minutes later the wit ness announced that the .package had dis appeared. , . REPAIRINGJETTYTRESTLE STORM CARRIED AWAY 800 YARDS OF THE WORK. Taking of Rock Will Probably Begin About April 15-Contracts for Material. ASTORIA. Or., March 17. (Special.) Assistant Engineer G. B. Hegardt,. who Is in charge of the Government work at the mouth of the Columbia River, states .that during the present Winter 800 yards of the jetty trestle have been carried away by the storms. He now has a large force of men engaged In making repairs and about 90 feet of new trestle is being constructed each day. The piling Is not being driven through the rock, as was done In the repair work last season, but the trestle Is being built around the rock to connect with the portion of the trestle that Is still standing farther out Mr. Hegardt expects that the repairs will- be completed so that the department can begin taking rock, again about April 15. The Intention Is, a3 soon as bperations are resumed, to receive 2500 tons of rock daily, shipments being made- from the up river quarries by both rail and barges. Mr. Hegardt also says a wrong Impres- ELECTED RABBI OF TEMPLE EMANU EL OF VANCOUVER, B. C. Rev. Dr. N. Mosessohn, editor of the Jewish Tribune, a prominent clergyman of this city, has been elected rabbi of Temple Emanu-El, of Vancouver. B. C, one of the wealthiest and most influential Jewish congregations on the Pacific Coast. slon seems to have gone abroad concern ing the rock contract that was recently let to the Columbia Contract Company, as most people imagine this company Is to furnish large rock only. This is not the case, as the contract with it and the one with the Northwest Construction Com pany are Identical excepting as to the price and amount. Each contractor will furnish both large and small rock and the reason the new contract was made was because the department desires to rush the work this season and one company could not supply the rock fast enough. Concerning the placing of oil burners In the dredge Chinook, Mr. Hegardt says the matter has not yet been definitely decided, and if it is the change will not delay the operation of the dredge, as the alterations will be made after the vessel returns to the mouth of the river, and while she is at work. SPENCER'S STEEL SHAFT. Massive Piece of Metal Will Be Taken to Boatyards Today. The 7-toiv steel shaft for the steamer Charles H. Spencer has arrived from the East and was yesterday trucked to Hos- ford's dock, where it was admired by a large number of steamboat men. The shaft will be taken up to the Portland Ship Building Company's yard this morn ing on the steamer lone. The alterations to the Spencer are about completed and all that remains to be done is to place the shaft, build the wheel and paint the boat.

The boat will resume her run on the Portland- Dalles route, and it Is Captain Spencer's Intention to make tne round trip daily. except Mondays.

The steamer will dock at the foot of Washington street. HIS LICENSE SUSPENDED. Captain Good, of Steamer America, Found Guilty of Negligence.

PROBE LAND FRAUD CASE FEDERAL GRAND JURY DEVOTES ENTIRE DAY TO IT Matter Is Kept Secret by Officials but Indictment of Prominent Persons- Seems-Probable. The Federal grand jury met yesterday morning and began business .without de lay. The entire day., was devoted to the consideration of a land fraud case, and the Indications last evening were that an indictment would be returned' this morn ing. The Jury was empaneled at 10 o'clock yesterday morning and James Steel, of Portland, was made foreman. Judge (Bellinger Instructed the Jury as to the number, of votes required to bring In an Indictment and the number of members that must be present to constitute a quorum. He imposed strict secrecy upon the members of the jury and all who are In any way connected with the proceed ings that will take place in the jury-room. He called attention to the fact that at the last session of the grand jury infor mation was given out in some way to the newspapers. The Judge informed the jury that If any of them were guilty of this conduct and it could be proved, that they. would be punished. The case under investigation yesterday was one which the statutes of limitation had almost placed without the jurisdic tion of the court. It Involves alleged fraudulent timber land deals through the Eugene Land Office and a half dozen wit nesses from Eugene, a number of whom are connected with the Land Office, were In attendance and appeared before the Jury. The identity of the person accused Is a strict secret which the officials re fuse to reveal until the grand jury re ports. It Is understood that in case an indictment Is returned it will create a sensation. Judging from the fact that only a por tion of the witnesses were called before the jury, and the others excused from further attendance, the prosecution must have rested Its case with perfect assur ance that an Indictment will be returned. In fact, a blank form for an Indictment went into the jury-room before adjourn ment and its return Is expected at the opening of court this morning. The time of the grand Jury. It Is under stood, will be devoted almost entirely to the investigation of land and timber fraud cases. The officials, since the last session of the grand jury, have been unusually active and It Is understood that they have succeeded in securing evidence against a number of persons whose conduct will be thoroughly probed by the jury. One of the principal cases to come be fore the Jury will be that of Charles Cunningham, County Judge Hartman, Joe Parks and others accused of frauds in Eastern Oregon. Fearless Russian Not Expected. BER0LIN, March 17. Mandelstamm, whom Chancellor von Bulow named In the Reichstag February 29 as one of the lead ing protestors against the government's attitude toward Russia, is not included In the list of 30 Russian students expelled from Germany. He anticipated such an order by flight to Switzerland. Frau Zetkin, In a recent speech at Breslau, gave the following details of his past: "Hats off to Mandelstamm, twice de ported to Siberia, where, almost without food, owing to the embezzlement of a commissary officer, complained to the commander of the escort, who, lining them up, said: 'Who objects? One man stopped forward, and the officer shot him. Turning pleasantly to the others, the commander Inquired: 'Has any one else a wish?' A second man stepped out of the line and the commander shot him dead, and .again asked if any one complained. Mandelstamm said Ye3, I do- The offi cer, overcome by this fearlessness, lis tened to the protest and supplied the con victs with food." BUSINESS ITEMS. If Baby Is Cutting Teeth.

ALL GgOCEKS AMD DRUGGISTS, TOOK A STRAW VOTE Interesting Experiment In a Restau rant. An advertising agent, represenUng a prominent New York magazine, while on a recent "Western trip, was dining one evening In a Pittsburg restaurant. While waiting for his order he glanced over his newspaper and noticed the ad vertisement of a well-known dyspepsia preparation. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets; as he himself was a regular user of the tablets, he began speculating as to how many of the other traveling men in the dining-room were also friends of the popu lar remedy for indigestion. He says: I counted 23 men at the tables and In the hotel office I took the trouble to interview them and was surprised to learn that nine of the 23 made a prac tice of takimr one or two of Stuarts "Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. One of them told me he had suffered so much from stomach trouble that at one time he had been obliged to quit the road, but since using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets had been entirely free from indiges tion, but he continued their use, espe cially while traveling, on account of Ir regularity in meals and because, like all traveling men he was often obliged to eat what he could get and not always what he wanted. Another, who looked the picture of health, said he never ate a meal with out taking a Stuart Tablet afterward, be cause he could eat what he pleased and when he pleased without fear of a sleep less night or any other trouble. tatiu another used them because he was subject to gas on stomach, causing pres sure on heart and lungs, shortness of breath and distress in chest, which he no longer experienced since using the tablets regularly. Another claimed that Stuart's Dvsnensla Tablets was the only safe remedy he had ever found for sour stomach and acidity. He had formerly used common soda to re lieve the trouble, but the tablets were much better and safer to use. After smoking, drinking or other ex cesses which weaken the digestive or gans, nothing restores the stomach to a healthy, wholesome condition so effectu ally as Stuart's Tablets. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain the natural digestive, pepsin, diastase, which every weak stomach lacks, as well as nux. hydrastln and yellow parllla, and can be safely relied on as a radical cure for every form of poor digestion. Sold by druggists everywhere. George S. Scally, of 75 Nassau St.. New York. says: 'Tor years I have been troubled with rheumatism and dyspepsia, and I came to the conclusion to try your pins.
