s THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 25, 1905. PRISONERS CALL HER "LITTLE Reform of Desperate and Vicious Criminals Is the Mission in Life of Mrs. SOME years ago the Booths had a family Quarrel and there was disaf fection in the ranks of the Salvation Army which the old General founded and commands pvlth Iron hand. Out of this disaffection grew revolt, and the son Bal lington and his wife led the secession movement In America. They declared their Independence and set up a new ban ner. This was the beginning of the Volun teers of 'America, which has waxed strong In numbersand Influence. Mrs. Ballington Booth, who, with her husband, leads the Volunteer forces, was in Portland yesterday. She came down from Salem, where she addressed the state's prisoners, and spent a busy day in the Interest of her cause. Afternoon and evening meetings were addreesed by her at the White Temple, and In the interim she was engaged with local Volunteer leadera In planning, future campaigns She alpo dined with Dr. and Mrs. Stephen S. Wise. Mrs. Booth, and the distin guished rabbi were fellow-soldiers In the struggle for civic righteousness in New Tork when Theodore Roosevelt and Jacob Rils were field officers. Mrs. Booth Is a comely young matron with a sweet face and dancing eyes. She is eloquent of speech, animated but pol ished In her manner. She has a splendid eense of humor, and is almost rare enough to be set down' as a brilliant woman. She has a tinge of affectation, and one who observes closely will declare that she poses somewhat. She is a Booth by mar riage and much egotism must be forgiven a Booth. Her particular branch of the volunteer work is that of prison reform, and she is known and loved in almost every big prison in the land. To her the convicts are "my boys." and to them she is"""The Llttlp Mother." Prison walls and iron bars have no terrors for her. She has carried her mes sage to the thief and murderer, repent ant or unrepentant alike. In season and out she has ono motive which Impels her the betterment of those who suffor for their sins. Thanks to her efforts hun dreds of desperate and vicious men have been turned to better things than plann ing escape and revenge upon society. Hun dreds of them have patiently served out their terms and gone out into the world to benave themselves. Iir the gloomy corridors of Sing Sing, Leavenworth and Salem she has told "her boys" the way of life and the telling has borne fruit. She is doing a groat deal to make the world better, and her reward Is coming opulently in the respect and lovo of thousands of her fellow-countrymen and in treasured laid up where moth.. and rust corrupt not. She centralizes all her energies on the work in hand, and because of that will discuss only prisons, prisoners and their betterment. When an effort was made to secure an expression concerning the control of the social evil which seems to be the first local problem at this time she declined to take up the subject, in sisting that her present mission had to do with another phase of reform. Mrs.vBooth seemed pleased with condi tions at the Oregon penitentiary, and if she is pleased nothing radically wrong can be the matter, for she knows more about how to run a prison than a dozen legislative committees. Before coming to Oregon she visited all the principal pris ons In the West, and from here will re turn to New York by way of Seattle and Spokane. A. A. G. MAKES PLEA ''OR EX-CONVICTS Mrs. Ballington Booth Asks That They Be Given a Chance. To an audience that tested the seating capacity of the White Temple, Mrs. Bal , llngton Booth last evening protrayed the difficulties and obstacles that have to be faced by the convict when he emerges from the prison walls a free man only in words. The subject of Mrs. Booth's lec ture was, "After Prison, What?" Mrs. Booth 6ald that when a convict had GOES TO YOKOHAMA Cargo of Steamer Olmypia Disposed Of. 3APS BUY WHAT CANNOT SEIZE Orders to Proceed to Orient Received After Work of Discharging Oats Had Begun Pythomene Is Off River. The steamship Olympla will go to Yoko hama with her cargo of Oregon oats. The Japanese have decided that they might as well buy what they cannot seize. When the Olympia left Portland last month it was the intention of her char terers to land the cargo at Vladivostok, notwithstanding they cleared her for-Moji for orders. After coaling In British Co lumbia an accident to the machinery made it neceesnry for the steamer to re turn to the Sound. Her repairs were com pleted a few days ago, and the Olympla was about to resume her voyage when word was received of the blockading of Vladivostok. The Russian agents who had chartered the vessel then made overtures to the owners, the Northwestern Com mercial Company, toy cancel the charter. It was announced yesterday that the char ter had been canceled and the work of discharging the steamer at Seattle was begun, when word was received that the oats had been disposed of to the Japanese government. It is expected that the Olym pla will be -able to start again today on her trip across the Pacific. The Japanese from now on will be heavy buyers of feed and other supplies on this Coast, and the winding up of the Russian trade will have but little effect. Port land will get Its share of the business, and in the coming month will dlspatcth two and probably three tramp steamers to Yokohama. Several fixtures have late ly fceen made at San Franclwco for thl kind of business. The Brinkburn, which sailed from the Bay City some time ago with hay and barley for Vladivostok and afterwards put back, will carry a full cargo of barley to Yokohama. The Glen turret's cargo has been reconsigned to Japanese buyers, and the Stanley Dollar and Thade Fagerlund will also take sup plies to the Far East. The steamers In verness and Forerlc have been chartered fey the Pacific Mall to load for Yokohama, the former on a ?4 rate. NORWEGIAN FLAG FOR SEALER Captain McLean Loses Protection of the Mexican Ensign. VICTORIA. B. C.. Feb. 24. Captain Mc Lean, a San Francisco sealer, is now here fitting out the pchooner Carmencita, and will sail her under the Norwegian flag. As this country is not a party to the modus Vivendi regarding pelagic sealing, . served his term and had been released, while In reality free, there still remains with him that despondency and feeling of utter hopelessness that Is brought on only by confinement In penal Institutions, She said that the people, instead of giving what aid they could, refused to give even a little show, forcing released con victs deeper and deeper Into the grasping walls of crime until they had completely obliterated from their souls all that was good and honorable. "People wonder how criminals can be come habitual criminals." said Mrs. Booth in the course of her lecture, "and at their utter recklessness of the terrible consequences that ensue from perpetra tion of crimes similar to the ones that had forced them Into the clutches of the law. They wonder why they will again commit crimes when they have experienced the deprivation of their lib erty. They think it should be a lesson that could never be forgotten or disre garded. It is a lesson and one that will always be remembered by these poor un fortunates who have experienced it, were they given half an opportunity to realize and understand the bright side if life instead of an existence shrouded In gloom and the mistrust of their fellow-beings, "When a prisoner emerges with the slain of a convict and criminal upon his character, he is facing a situation he is not bound to respect its regulation and can seal at all seasons. Last year he carried a Mexican flag, but this- was with drawn, it Is said, at the request of the American Government. When cruising last year McLean at tempted to raid the Copper Island rooker ies In August and had two men wounded, ono of whom afterward died at Port Townsend. Steam-Coasters Come and Go. The steamer Nome City sailed for San Francisco yesterday afternoon with 20 passengers and S03.000 feet of lumber. She will stop at Stella and take on 269 cedar poles today. The steamer South Bay, loading at the Portland Lumber Mills, and the steamer Cascade, taking cargo at St. Johns, will leave down today. The steamer F. A. KHburn arrived up last night from San Francisco and Coast ports with a full load of passengers and a good cargo of general freight- The steamer Acme also arrived from San Francisco and proceeded to Vancouver, where she will load back with lumber. Steamer KHburn Fined. ASTORIA. Or.. Feb. 24. (Special.) A fine of $500 was Imposed by the local cus toms authorities today on the steamer F. A. KHburn, which arrived In this morn ing from San Francisco via Coos Bay, on the charge of carrying more passengers than her license permits. The Kllburn's license allows her to carry 7C passengers during the day and 34 at night, but she brought In 66 tills morning. From San Francisco to Coos Bay she had but 31 passengers and picked up a number at the latter port, from which she sailed yesterday. Pythomene Is Outside. The square-rigger reported off the mouth of the Columbia several days ago proves to be the British ship Pythomene, from Antwerp- She was spoken again Thursday seven miles off Wlllapn Harbor, and last evening was again beating about outside the Columbia. The ship is bringing gen eral cargo to Taylor, Young & Co. She has made a good passage, being out only 148 days today. Expert Ready to Splice Cable. ASTORIA, Or.. Feb. 24. (Special.) Cap tain Gregory, of the lighthouse tender Heather, received a telegram from Weath er Observer Beals this afternoon, asking that he make aii attempt tomorrow to pick up the ends of the Government tele graph cable that runs across the river be tween Fort Stevens and Fort Canby. and stating that an expert will be here to splice the broken cable if it Is picked up. Numantia Arrives From Yokohama. ASTORIA. Or.. Feb. 24. (Special.) The German steamship Numantia arrived In this afternoon. 17 days from Yokohama.

The American Bridge Company Is now shlpping from Seattle to Japan a dupli cate of the materials, for bridge building BALLTNGTOX BOOTII AND SOME OF HER AUDITORS. that cannot be appreciated except by those who have experienced it. He is shunned by his former friends, and Is pointed out as a jail-bird. He Is refused employment and told there Is no room or use for criminals. They are looked upon as vile creatures of depravity and degeneracy who are born to commit crimes when often they are men who have entered once more upon the world to start at the bottom of the ladder with the determination to win success and right the wrongs they might have In flicted when youths. "We, who have Interested ourselves in the reformation and righting of theso poor unfortunates, do not ask that they be honored and treated like heroes. We only ask that they be given a show to regain the narrow path of righteous liv ing, out of which they have strayed. Glvo them the same show that Is afforded all American citizens who have not been convicts. If they show a willingness to start life over again they should be encouraged. Let an ex-convict try to do what Is fair and honorable and be In dustrious, and people will say his refor mation is only temporary or feigned." Mrs. Booth told of an Instance of a man who was sentenced to prison for a crime which he had committed In a moment of recklessness. He proved a model prisoner and was released after lost on the-Knight Commander when that vessel was sunk by Russian warships. The material weighs 1500 tons and Is worth $250,000. Th schooner Mable Gale has cleared Tor San Francisco with 900.000 feet of lum ber. The schooner Mahukona went down the river yesterday morning with 00,067 feet of lumber for San Francisco.

Becoming weary of school, and In the possession of over So spending money, Er--nest Robert, 12 years old, and residing at S26 Corbett street, ran away yesterday with another boy whose name cannot be learned. Roberfe mother thinks that her son has been abducted by his companion. A story was current last night that the two boys had left for this reason: "To get the pot of gold waiting for those who find the way to the end of a rainbow." "When this was told to Mrs. Berger, Er nest Robert's mother, she said: "Stuff and nonsense! My boy has been persuad ed to run away by an older boy. I think he has been abducted. My boy looks as if he were 9 years old, and he has been playing 'hookey lately from the Falling School. He was at home this morning, and. saying 'Excuse me a moment,' he went out and I haven't seen him since. I now find that his aavings bank, which contained more than 15, is empty. I sup pose the money will be all spent when he gets back." Convict Breaks His Parole. WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Feb. 24. Spe cial.) Thomas Nelson, a convict at the penitentiary, decamped last night, and no trace of him has been found today. Nel son has been mailcarrier for the peniten tiary for several months and failed to re port after going to the city. He was sent from Snohomish . County for assault in 1SCC, and would have been out next June. riuo'd Cure for Consumption is an ffrrtnj remedy lot coughs suxA colds. 25c MOTHER Ballington Booth. several years of Imprisonment on parole. He, under a false name, secured employ ment In a large factory. By the strictest and most careful attention to his duties, he succeeded in securing a position of responsibility and trust. His employer, through an accident, learned of his past history and discharged him without even an explanation, although for several years this ex-convict had lived a life of Industry and progresslveness. In despair he took to drink and In a few days found himself once more behind the prison bars having violated the conditions of his pa role. There he attempted to dash out his "brains by beating his head against the walls, but only succeeded In crip pling and disfiguring himself for life. Mrs. Booth told similar stories taken from the lives of convicts whom she had met in her work which carried her Into the prisons In all parts of the country She made a stirring appeal to her listen ers not to discriminate against ex-con victs. She also told of the good work that had been accomplished by the Vol unteer Prison League of which she Is one of the Organizers. At different times dur Ing her address she was Interrupted by bursts of applause. When Mrs. Booth finished many of the men and women In the audience thronged to her side and insisted upon shaking hands. Mrs. Booth leaves this morning for Seattle. CHARITY AND EXPENSE MR. STRONG RENEWS HIS COM PARISON WITH MINNEAPOLIS. How the Work There Is Carried On Significant Tacoma Figures. PORTLAND. Feb. 24. (To the Edi tor.) Misled by a similarity of names. The Oregonian in its editorial of today nas apparently made a serious mistake. Besides this it also seriously mis states In this editorial my former com munication. In my communication, after stating our oneness with Asso ciated Charity organizations. I said, to use my exact words, "How do we com pare with similar organizations?" and then I gave the figures of the Associat ed Charities of Minneapolis with abso lute accuracy. This society Is the exact counterpart of our own, supported by prlvato subscriptions based upon a sim ilar constitution and having- for Its purpose "to encourage 'tnrif, to help each applicant to help himself, to raise tne poor above the need of relief, to prevent children growing up as pau pers, to inculcate the best principles of poor relief, to prevent fraud, beg glng and indiscriminate begging," etc. etc Its report is before me, and Its ex penditures are as I stated them, and It apparently does not deem' It wise to spend nearly as much for direct relief as we do. I did not use the words given as an apparent quotation in "the edito rial, as follows: "Jn Minneapolis In 1903 the total expenditures by the City Board of Charities were 57003.CG," or any words like them, for to have done so would have been to .write myself down as very ignorant of both charity and municipal matters. There Is no charitable board like ours in Minneapolis by the name of the City Board of Charities, but there Is an official Department of Charities and Corrections, and its exact name is "Board of. Charities and Corrections of the City of Minneapolis." It Is a part of the city government, and Is, as Is usual In many Eastern cities, the coun terpart of our County Court In charity matters, and this Is the one your cor respondent evidently refers to, but even then he does not give all the figures. It is supported as our County Court is by public taxation, and its report for 1903 is before me. Its entire receipts in 1903 were 5147.201.36. Its disburse ments were: Poor department, 533,69).- 51: City Hospital. $54,333.91; City Workhouse, $19,SS5.57; hospital build ing improvements, $37,653.72; total $145,563.71. This organization is no more subject to any comparison with ours than the nurses' association of this city is comparable with our Coun ty Court. In other words, the comparison made in The Oregonian is exactly as if you nad taken the expenditures of the Charitable Department of the County of Multnomah, which I3 strictly a pub lic Institutional, charitable agency, ex pending tens of thousands of dollars on poor farms, poor hospitals, transpor aUloj? afld tjoor xrJfS juii coJJ&4 that expenditures for charities and called the superintendent's salary the only salary ulsbursement. Even then your Minne apolis correspondent's report of what is Btrlctly a disbursing and Jlsnensinsr charity apparently shows that its net disbursements for charity out of a- total disbursement of perhaps $150,000 was only about 524.481.69. About what I would expect of a municipal charity and correction department and prob ably proportionately just about the same showing that our county poor de partment could make. We have hundreds of charity reports on hand. They are at your service and at the service of anybody at our office. I only wish that our subscribers could be sufficiently agitated 'so that tney would come to the office and look up our accounts and compare them with otherj, but as it is they remain as ob stinately unruffled and easy as an, aioatross in a gale of wind, and it Is only by reason of the fact that some of them, by way of a friendly pat on the back are sending in their subscrip tions in advance of their being due, that we know that they appreciate that there is any windstorm at all. In regard to the friendly little let ter in the same issue by Miss Anabel Russell. I do not think that Miss Rus- ! sell's action as described by her in ncr letter could or- would be called im pulsive or misapplied. There is no kind- i lier and more effective charity In the J worm tnan the friendly visiting and 1 help cf families by neighbors who keep j themselves informed of the situation, and help wisely and judiciously any unfortunate family In their neighbor hood. This is the help the City Board of Charities seeks for every destitute fam ily, and it will not interfere with or discourage any such effort. If Miss Russell or any oilier woman has tlmo for this kind of work sne cannot do better than to so use it. THOMAS N. STRONG. President City Board of Charities. If The Oregonian was misled by a similarity of names. It was misled be cause President Strong in his former communication failed to make clear his comparison with Minneapolis. The Ore gonian took him on his own ground and obtained the figures for the City Board of Charities and Corrections for Min neapolis. Notwithstanding Mr. Strong's protestations, it thinks that the compari son between the Portland City Board of Charities and the Minneapolis City Board of Charities and Corrections Is quite as fair as the comparison between the local board and the Minneapolis Associated Charities, which Mr. Strong now drags forth. In Minneapolis, It Is evident that the City Board !. the central organiza tion for the relief of the poor, sick and needy. It disburses a large amount for the relief of individuals and families. The Multnomah County Court maintains the County Hospital, but gives a comparative ly amall amount to families, pensioners and individuals not at the hospital or poor farm. No doubt it will be agreed that the Portland City Board is the cen tral organization here. But It Is not neces3nry to go to Minne apolis to make comparisons, fair or un fair. The Associated Charities of Ta coma Is doing the same work the Port land City Board docs, or is supposed to do. From the annual report of Manager William Hoover for 1901. the following extract Is taken: The total receipts of the year are $3334.58. the expenditure being: Salary. $904.10; office expenses, including telephone, $01.05; relief, transportation, etc.. 5.T04S.44. maklnr a total of $4044.58. thus leaving a deficit of $110. In addition we have distributed 3070 pieces of clothing: at an estimated value of $550. wc have secured 14 GO odd Jobs and 30 permanent posi tions for those out of employment, we have In vestigated 120 new cases and have secured as sistance from parties In the East for friends here 29 times, we have alno distributed 1G5 pieces of bedding-, four wire mattresses, six muffed mattresses, four bedsteds. four tables, blx chairs, four stoves, relief was extended 816 times. Thus It is seen that the maintenance expenses of the Tacoma board are about one-fourth the total disbursements. In Portland the similar expense is about three-fourths of the total. Much other charity Is dispensed In Tacoma. For ex ample, 3079 pieces of clothing were dis tributed. The report of the Portland board (page 13) shows that 1443 pieces of clothing were distributed. On page 14 the information Is given that 395 pieces of clothing were distributed. There Is like confusion In other Items of the sta tistical report, so that It Is hard to know just what the local board Is doing. If Mr. Strong was misquoted In the edi torial It was entirely because he was misunderstood and the words "City Board of Charities," which It was supposed he meant, were Inserted for purposes of making his meaning clear, when "Asso ciated Charities," which he says he meant, should have been substituted. MACKAY CABLES EXPANDING Pacific Line Will Be Extended to Japan and China. NEW YORK. Feb. 24. The first report of the trustees of the Mackay companies was made public today. It shows that the Mackay companies own the entire capital stock of the Commercial Cable Company and 1642 shares In other cable. telegraph and telephone companies, rep resenting a total value of y7C.602.574. from which holdings dividends were received from December 19, 1903, to February 23, 1905. amounting to $1,643,676.
