SCOPE IS W
Exhibit of Fine Arts to
8e Surpassing.
TO HAVE EXTRA BUILDING
Structure Will Be Erected for
This Department
MANY NATIONS REPRESENTED
Paintings From Brushes of Masters,
Valued at Fabulous Sums, Will
Be on Exhibition, and Closely
Guarded Night and Day.
The scope -of the .fine arts and sculpture
exhibit at the Lewis and Clark Expos!
ton "has "become such that it will be im
perative to erect an additional building
in which to house the paintings and statu
ary which arc to be sent here by the vari
ous nations and art aMocIatlons.
No provision was made originally for a
line arts building, as it was not sure the
offerings of artists would be sufficient to
warrant an art gallery. But every nation
that is to participate in the exposition
has .signified an intention of bringing se
lect worksto properly represent the art of
uip country- or tnis reason a site nas
been set apart at tne Exposition grounds,
and action looking towards the construc
tion of the building will be taken immodi
atoly upon the return of President Goode
and staff from St. JuLs. The site Ik on
the lake front, fronting Gray Boulevard
Its size will be determined when the exact
amount of space required has been deter
mined.
Exhibit Will Be Notable.
That the art exhibit will be one of the
notable ones in :the history of expositions
is already assured. The paintings will be
from the best brushes of such art centors
as France, Italy, Germany and Russia.
The other nation will also have repre
sentative works here. For Instance, China
has decided to, send a famous collection of
fcrolls, done in six water colors, showing
omeial and religious ceremonies in the
imperial kingdom. China will also con
tribute albums of paintings from the best
artist? of Canton, Hongchow and Pekin.
As befits the nation of art. France will
have the most extensive exhibit here and
Exposition visitors will have an oppor
tunity of seeing the works of such mod
ern painters as Bonnat, Duran, Bou
gereau, Penner, Fleury. Besnard, Simon,
Monet, Constant and Menard.
It is not assured that any of the old
masters will be shown here, though some
may be included in the Italian art ex
hibit, which is now being selected from
the royal galleries by Sig. Zlgglo, who re
cently sailed from New York for Venice
for the express purpose of making the
selections.
More Painting Than Sculpture.
The greater portion. If not all of the ex
hibits, will bo made up from the works of
modern painters and sculptors. Sculpture
will, of necessity, take second placo in
point of scope, owing to the dangers and
difficulties of transportation.
Russia's art offering will be made by the
Russian Art Association of St. Peters
burg, and will be made up of paintings by
the notable modern Russia artists.
From far away Persia will come an
elaborate display of Oriental art The
Persian government has announced Its in
tention of sending a valuable collection of
rugs, paintings, pottery and tapestry. This
will be supplemented by the Jl.000,000 col
lection belonging to Dirkran Khan
Keklan. the Persian Exposition commis
sioner, who has just placed this valuable
collection at the disposal of Director of
Exhblts Henry E. Dosch. It will be
brought to Portland early In the Spring.
Just what the American school will send
has yet to be decided and the plans of
England, Japan. Holland. Switzerland,
Turkey and other nations are yet in
embryo. Germany has not designated the
nature of the art contributions from that
country, but it is expected the paintings
will be selected from the imperial pal
aces. The art display will be fabulous in
value. There will be not a few single
paintings worth, on the market, at least
5100.000. which is no uncommon price for
a good picture from tne brush of a mas
ter. The art display will represent more
money than will tie spent in producing the
entire Exposition and will be kept under
the closest guard day and night
SELECTS BUILDING SITE.
Coos County's Pavilion Is 'No't Mere
Idle Talk.
Coos County demonstrated that the
recent plans for a county pavilion is
not more idle - talk by sonding an' official-representative
to Portland yester
day for the purpose of selecting a
building site. L.. L. Deffenbaugh. rep
resenting the Coos County Chamber of
Commerce, reached Exposition head
quarters during the forenoon and was
escorted to the grounds by D. C. Free
man, who went over the dlfforent sites
with the visitor. Mr. Deffenbaugh de
cided on a plot of ground. 100 feet by
100 feet, situated a short distance north
and oast of the Plaza of States.
Coos County will have a building
force here at work shortly after the
first of the year. Mr. Deffenbaugh said.
The pavilion will be 50x60 feet, con
structed entirely out of Coos County
woods. The plans will shortly be ready
to be placed in the hands of a builder
The pavilion will- cost. $10,000.
Coos now loads the counties of the
state in the matter of Exposition en
terprise While Marlon, Clackamas
and several others have applied for
large space allotments. Coos County
bears the distinction of being the first
to provide for a separate exhibit pavil
ion. The funds are being provided by
enterprising merchants and citizens, no
appropriation having been made by the
County Court
Phil Sheridan's Blockhouse.
A historic log blockhouse which served
as the headquarters of General Phil Sher
idan during the Indian wars of 1S53-56,
now stands in good condition at a point
about 15 miles from Sheridan, Or. The
Exposition management may decide to
mo'e the structure to the Portland Ex
position some time during the Winter
Besides its value as a historical relic, th'e
structure is picturesque and would no
doubt be an attraction of great Interest
Band of Ostriches May Come.
A Los Angeles man wants to bring a
band of ostriches to the Exposition. In a
letter to headquarters he writes that he
has a large drove of the big birds and
would.be willing , to .-bring them all here
if he could get a space allotment on which
to build a corral. He wishes to have a
concession and to pay his expenses by
selling ostrich feathers, which, he says,
could be secured by the rather painful
method of allowing purchasers to pluck
a choice feather from one of the live
birds.
- - -
To Erect Perfyme Fountain. . .
An Eastern perfume, m'anuf acturei .
has asked for space-for a.perfurhe foun:
tain In the Liberal Arts building. His
idea is to have a huge supply bottle of
perfume which will spout forth from
fountain superstructure during exhibit
hours. He also states that he would be
willing to offer cash prizes for those
guessing nearest xto the capacity, in
gallons, pints and ounces, of the supply
Dottle.
MEYERS' GOOD LUCK
MANY DOCTORS COMING.
Medical Association Convention Will
Be Largely Attended.
The meeting of the American Medical
Association In Portland next Summer will
f be one of the best and fn6st widely at
tended conventions of the Fair year. The
local committee on arrangements Is al
-ready beginning to receive Inquiries from
all parts of the country, seeking informa
tlon regarding the accommodations for
delegates and the possibility of securing
room for their wives and children. The
American doctors are apparently going to
come from many sections and attend in
large bodies.
This, however.- was anticipated by the
Portland doctors, who have agreed from
the start to throw open their homes to
the visitors, but it now seems as If even
such hospitality would not Insure room
sufficient for the delegates-, and a plan
has been hit UDon to cD-ODerate with Man
ager Bowers! of.-the Portland Hotel, and
leave the matter largely to him. By the
aid of the bureau which he has now in
working order, he can secure bcVvrejm 2000
and 3000 rooms in hotels, apartment
houses and private houses, which can bo
contracted for Id advance. Rates will bo
reasonable, much more so than in any
other Exposition city the country has
seen, for the Portland Hotel Itself will
charge but a moderate rate.
The doctors are not low to make their
contributions to the entertainment fund
necessary for the convention, and It
probable that the meeting here will be one
of the most enjoyable and memorable in
the history of the association. It Is ex
pectcd that 510.000 will be raised here in
Portland, and already considerable contrt
buttons have been made. The rest of the
state will also aid, and even outside near
by states will contribute. The Idaho Med
leal Society at a. recent meeting took up a
voluntary subscription and raised $000 on
the spot
Thte convention will be extremely Im
portant, and may result In medical discov
eries which will turn the eyes of the world
on this city. Doctors often save the re
suits of their Investigations for such oc
casions, and deliver addresses before the
assembly which prove to be discoveries
which revolutionize the medical science,
DUPIUS HOTEL BTJENS.
Oswego Hostelry a Victim of a Greedy
Conflagration.
The disused Duplus Hotel at Oswego,
which lost Its trade several years ago,
when the Oregon Iron & Steel Company's
plant ceased operations, was burned to
the ground about 6 o'clock yesterday
morning, and as a consequence a portion
of the power of the Portland General
Electric Company from Oregon City was
shut off. Lighting plants in apartment-
houses and office buildings in this city
deriving their power from the Oregon
Olty electric plant were plunged Into
darkness for several hours, and many
trolley cars were forced to stand Idle.
A large pole standing In front of the
old hotel "building bore heavy power wires
and when the flames reached them there
was a brilliant electrical display which
was seen for a considerable distance -on
both sides of the river. The pole that
had weathered the blasts of many stormy
nights ulttmatoly went down beneath Its
load of wires, and it was at least four or
fli'o hours before enough cloctricity could
be harnessed and distributed to trolley
cars and elevators waiting for it The
hotel was built at a cost of $2000, whon
times were good around Oswego, but at
the time of the fire the two-story deso
late-looking frame structure was esti
mated to be worth $300. As to the cause
of the fire, there is no positive "knowledge.
but the unknown tramp that is univer
sally supposea 10 sieep o- nignis in uis
used houses Is blamed for carelessnes in
lighting his cigarette.

Ai the recent sale of the Pacific

erties, George T.. Meyers, Jr., of this
fc'lt. made his v reappearance into the

vOni? of the most valuable southeastern
Alaska canneries.
His purchase consisted of the Pacific

the total price being $40,00d.
Mr. Meyers has been extremely for

the price paid. The cannery was built
four years ago at a cost It Is said, of

notably organ playing. Last Septem
ber, Mr. Alexander came here from
Seattle, practically a stranger, to rnaXo
his home with hln relatives, who live
In this city. ,He had received his mu
slral training in Chicago and othor
Eastern cities and in ' France. Mr.
Alexander was honored with a recep
tlonmulcale at the Hobart Curtis, and
won admiration for his beautlfully
clear tenor voice and for the sIU he
alio displayed In playing piano accom
paniments. Most of the notable, rep
resentative people of the city were
present, and it was hoped that the
gucrt of the evening would make this
clly his permanent home. He was
appointed to the directorship of the
choir of the Cathedral-of the Immac

came the director of the Orpheus male
chorus. In addition, he has appeared with marked success as a slmjcr and accom
panist before the University Club. But a tempting offer has been made to Mr. Alex

been offered a position as choir director and organist of a Paris church. Sometime
between Christmas and- Ndw Year's Mr. Alexander wll. appear at a concert to b

p'Telegram Received. at Exposition
Headquarters "Here States That
Mernbers of Commission Will
Ask for $60,000.
New York has suddenly come to view
the Lewis and Clark Exposition In a
broader light than before, r Notwith
standing that the . Empire Stae set
aside the substantial sum of $35,000 to
be expended herd, this sum Is to be
nearly doubled.
A telegram, to ttiis effect was re
ceived yesterday at Exposition head
quarters from F. R. Green, chairman
of the New York State Commission for
the lwls and Clark Centennial. The
telegram stated that the members of
the commission have concluded that at
least 550,000 Will be needed by New
York for the Portland Fair and that
this amount will be secured at the coin
ing session of the Legislature.
While no statement of the use to
which the extra appropriation will be
put was made In the telegram, it Is
believed New York intends to construct
a larger state building than the 515,000
structure previously decided upon.
5125,000. It Is fully equipped with all
modern appliances for the packing of
salmon and has a capacity of 75,000
cases per season. Since its oroctlon,. a
period covering the poorest output of
salmon for many years, this Chatham
cannery has averaged 45,000 cases per
season. Its location and equipment
make It one of the best salmon prop
ertlcs on the Alaskan Coast.
Of the floating equipment, tho tug
Philip F. Kelley is said to have cost
53S.000 when built, and It Is today one
of the best tugs In tho fishing industry
Tho ship Kate Davenport has a carry
ing capacity of 2000 tons and was used
for lighterage purposes between Seattle
and the canneries by the former own
ers. There is also included in tho float
lng equipment two large gasoline
launches, and another purchase gave
Mr. Meyers the ownership of tho tug
Geo. T., for 53500. This latter tug was
built by Mr. Meyers a few years ago
and sold to the Pacific Packing & Navi
gation Company for 510,000.
Of tho different bids offered for the
Various properties of tho Pacific Paok-
Ing & Navigation Company that of Mr.
Meyers is probably the only ono that
will be confirmed. In many cases tho
bids were so ridiculously small that the
courts would not entertain them, and
such properties will be again offered
for sale next Saturday along with those
upon which no bids were rocelved.
The former sale was disappointing In
many ways, and it is a safe prediction
that when everything Is disposed of
there will be but little in tho way of
remuneration for the creditors and
stockholders of the defunct combine.
The Demlng & Gould Company did
not enter Into tho sale to the extent
expected. They had only two bids in.
335,000 for the Chlgnlc cannery and
520,000 for the Orca property, these In
eluding valuable floating equipment.
such as the ships J. D. Peters and SL
Paul and various largo tugs. These
bids, however, were so far below the
former upset price on the properties
that It is doubtful if they will be con
firmed.
Acting for Cudahy.
While this latter bidding was done in
the name of E. B. Demlng It Is gener
ally understood that he was acting for
the firm of which he Is a partner and
which in turn represents the Cudahys
of Chicago.
Recent developments strengthen the
prediction made a short time ago that
the Cudahys, through Demlng & Gould.
are again entering the salmon business
and propose to be a strong competitor
for the control of the market.
When McGovem failed to complete
his purchase of the Pacific American
Fisheries, Demlng' & Gould assumed
his bid and the courts have since con
firmed the sale to them. Should thevM
chases the two canneries bid on at tho
last sale they will be in a position to
carry the war almost to the Alaska
Packers Association, the hitherto domi
nant factor in the market. Owning,
as they do now, the properties of the
Pacific American Fisheries and the
North American Fisheries, Doming &
Gould will control the Puget Sound
sockeye pack, and with the Alaska can
neries bid on they would have a suf
ficient pack there to force the Alaska
packers.
That everything woold tend toward
their success in such a fight can be
judged from the war In which the
Alaska Packers' Association engaged
the Pacific Packing & Navigation Com
pany and which forced the latter, into
bankruptcy. At that time the combine
put up the largest Individual pack of
sockeyes on Puget Sound and of the
cheaper grades of fish in Southeastern
Alaska while the Alaska Packers con
trolled the Alaska red fish.
Alaskans Cut Prices.
The tactics adopted by the Alaska
packers in their flght was that of price
cutting, and In spite of their disad
vantage In the matter of Puget Sound
ockeyes, they forced the combine to
sell its pack at what was to it a ruin
ous price. A good price was maintain
ed on the Alaska red salmon, but a big
cue was maoe on tne aouna socKeyes
rtd cheaper grades of fish, with the
method of sale, however, that In order
to receive the benefit of the cut prices
living at 4SS Tenth street, has been tacitly
agreed upon as Councllmen of the Fifth
Ward, to succeed B. D. SIgler. who re
tires January 1, to take the County As
sessor's office. Mr. Boothe says he is a
candidate for the position.
From the beginning it was understood
that Mr. SIgler should have the privilege
of naming his successor, who Is to be
elected by the Council. Mr. SIgler will
present his resignation at the next ses
sion. A .number of residents of the Fifth
Ward have been after the chair to be
vacated, and the nominations will prob
abty be made at the same time Mr. Slg
ler's resignation Is presented.
