4 la THE MORNING OKEGONIAff,:. SATUBDAY, , MAEGH 25,. 19(0d., EE8E WILLTfiLK Has Something to Say of the Police. HIS ANSWER TO A TOAST In Few Days He Will Declare Himself, HE SPEAKS AT THE REVIEW After Reception to Oregon National Guard the General Makes a State- -ment From Which Infer ence Is Drawn. HIGH PRAISE FOB. THE GUARD. "What do I think of the Oregon Na tlenal Guard? It Is magnificent." said General Constant Willfame, last night, after the review and inspection. "I waa particularly struck with the appear ance of the men, the manner In which they went through the- manual of arms and also the perfect manenr in which they went through the ceremony of pa rade and review. I cannot give these boys too much praise, and I was aston ished to find that they could conduct themselves as a body so perfectly in such a confined epacc. You can say for me that, compared with the various state mllltla bodies I have met. they are equal to the beet In this country, and that In no mean distinction. To sum up your state troops, they are simply splendid In every way, and I am pleased to say eo." "I cannot say that it was expected of or even intimated to me that I should say anything of the Portland Police Depart ment in responding to this toast. To tell the truth, I have nothing to eay tonight In regard to the police, but I will say that within the next few days I will have a great deal to eay. Alter the mass of evidence and testimony which has been submitted to stain the character of Port land's Police Department has been sifted out, I expect to say something in a ring ing voice, and' the reason for these re marks is to be found in the training I have received through military disci pline." The foregoing remarks made by General Charles P. Beebe, in response to a toast made by Colonel Gantenbeln formed a feature of gathering together of the Port land companies of the Third Infantry, O. N. G., unknown to the throng that wit nessed the maneuvers of last night's quar terly inspection. Inspection of Troops. The occasion was not only the quar terly inspection of the troops, but a re view by General Constant "Williams and a farewell reception to Colonel Joseph F. Huston and the officers of the Nineteenth Infantry as well. Last night's inspection of the Portland troops was one of the most notable events In the city's military career. Witnessed by General Williams and his staff. Colonel Joseph F. Huston and 32 officers of the Nineteenth Infantry and at least 1500 of their admirers, the Portland boys marched into the drillhall of the Armory not only with the pomp and glory of a ceremony, but the martial bearing of true soldiers. The ceremonies of the evening consisted of a dress parade, a review by Generaf Williams, followed by the inspec tion. Praise the Portland Men. Of the work of the Portland men Colo nel Huston had to say: "I was really surprised to see the Third Infantry tonight. I had them under me at American Lake, and thought I knew something about them, but when I see the " contracted space they have to work in at home, I can only say it is wonderful. The boys did splendidly and cannot be complimented too highly. Another thing I would say is in regard to the officers. The ceremony gone through tonight Is a ' common thing in the Army, but never have I seen the officers come to front and center so magnificently as yours did tonight." Following this compliment Colonel Hus ton said of the Oregon "National Guard In his response to a toast proposed during ' the reception: "On three or four occasions I have had to compliment this regiment, and on each occasion I said all I could. I knew that tonight I would be asked to say some thing more, but after lying awake all night I find that I cannot say anything hut what might make you mad. Tou of llcers who are here will remember that In our first battle at American Lake last year I was against you and we beat you. Next day, however, you were placed un der my command, and then we beat all the other fellows. About the only thing I want to say is that this reminds me of a story I heard once. There was a fellow who was a General, Colonel. Major or something else during the Civil War, and he was appointed in the Imlon Army. He had a good many relatives In the Confed erate portion of the country who wanted to get him on their side. During one of the fiercest battles he was found by somo of his Southern friends fighting wllojy on the Union side. When asked to come over to the Southern side, his only reply was: 'Well, I am fighting here, but you Just wait until they accept my resigna tion. Then 111 quit them.' That, gentle men, will be my excuse on our first day at American Lake for fighting against such an excellent body as the Oregon National Guard. I can only say that it Is with a great deal of regret that my officers and myself leave for the Pinip plnes." Compliments Police Department. Following Colonel Huston, General Beebe was called upon in response to a toast, in which he made tlje state ment regarding the present police In vestigation. After the remarks of General Beebe. Colonel Huston took the .liberty of making another speech. In which he paid high tribute to the Portland and Vancouver police depart ment. He stated that in his 32 years' experience as a commissioned officer in the United States army he had never found two cities so willing to aid the War Department or the enlisted men of the army. "In my experience of two years, here." he said. "I must say that so far as I know the only times that any men of my command have "been arrested Is when they have forced the officer to make the arrest. I have found invariably that the. Police De partment has always endeavored to protect and to take care of the soldiers- whenever they got a little bit foolish, and I do not hesitate to isa hat thev were derelict In their duty -because -they only made arrests- when our men forced the matter. I -wish to say to you now. General Beebe, thati not only on behalf or myseii, duc my officers and my men. that I "wish to thank the Portland -Police Department for the way In which they have treat' ed our erring1 soldiers." This was answered by a feeling re sponse from General Beebe, In which he said that this was the first compli ment that he had ever known to be paid the officers and the men of the Portland Police Department. During last night's ceremonies orders were read calling for the presence of the troops on April 1 as an escort for the Nineteenth Infantry when they leave for Manila, Under the present arrangements the Nineteenth will arrive In Portland by. 8:30 A. M. on April 1, and they will, under the escort of the Oregon Na tional Guard, parade the' principal streets of Portland. The Nineteenth will sail from Portland at noon of the 1st. While the reception was given the Officers of the regulars the enlisted men of the Portland Infantry enter tained their friends and guests In dancing. HE A SOU FOE CUTTING AFFRAY Because Fug! Testified Against Him Hanoaka Stabbed Japanese. It was the testimony of L. Fugi that sent Sakutaro Hanoaka to the Oregon penitentiary for one year, and that was why he stabbed Fugi, disemboweling him, at an early hour last Monday morning. This important fact was brought to light yesterday by Detectives Hartman and Vaughn, who have charge of the case and who are now bending their energies to locate the assailant. At St. Vincent's Hospital, where Fugi was removed after the cutting, the In jured Japanese Is much improved. It is now thought probable he will recover. At first It was believed that death was cer tain, but the vitality of the victim has "been such that he Is now said to have a chance for his life. Hanoaka, the assailant, stabbed a man in Astoria, nearly two years ago. Fugi witnessed it, and gave strong testimony. Since then he has been a bitter enemy of the ex-convict, and at the first meeting the cutting took place. It was at a ban quet la a building at Fourth and Flanders streets. A Japanese, answering the descrip tion of Sakutaro Hanoaka, wanted here for assault with intent to kill L. Fugi, was arrested by the City Mar shal of Harrisburg last night. There Is believed to be no doubt as to his Iden tity, and Detective Hartman will leave this morning for the purpose of bring ing him back for trial. CALLS ARBITRATION FAILURE Ohio Manufacturer Urges Employers to Fight Union Demands. CHICAGO, March 24. Manufacturers and other employers of labor were ad vised at today's convention of the Na tional Metal Trades Association that. their best Interests lay In opposing- all Idea of compulsory arbitration. The principal address along this line was made by J. Kirby, Jr., of Dayton, O. "Arbitration has proved a failure over and over again," Mr. Kirby declared. "If I am held up for my belongings and I re- zuse to surrender them, why should I submit the question to arbitration and take any chances of having to surrender half of what I have; then the next hold up to surrender half of what I have left, and so on until everything I ever had is gone?" Mr. Kirby's address urged on employ ers the necessity of fighting without com promise labor union demands. The question of the attitude of the as sociation toward the nine-hour move ment begun last year by the machinists was discussed at length, but no action was taken, the question being referred for settlement to the administrative council of the organization. Ohio Society Gathering. One hundred former residents of Ohio gathered last night at the Pythian Hall, in the Marquam building, to hold the annual meeting of the Ohio State Society and elect officers for the com ing year. The election of officers resulted In the re-election of Judge "W. M. Cake as president and Dr. Emmet Drake as first vice-president; J. W. Bell was elected second vice-president, "W. B. Chase third, Mrs. Prichard fourth and " Mrs. Ella K. Dearborn fifth. Dr. Byron E. Miller was elected secretary, in place of William Goldman, and L. D. Cole was re-elected treasurer. The board of directors was chosen to consist of L. Hess. G. W. Allen, John Ogilbee. C. M. Idleman, Mrs. Emma Ruble and Mrs. H. W. Riley. The society Is in a fine financial con dition, as shown by the report of the treasurer, and has, a membership of approximately 450. Portland Art Association. The curators' class, of the Portland Art Association, will meet this morning in the castroom at 11 o'clock. Examples of Greek sculpture of the fourth century. B. C, will be" considered. Attention is also called to the loan ex hibit of original prints by Jean Francois Millet, now hung In the lecture-room. The collection Includes exceptionally fine Im pressions, most of the etchings, litho graphs and wood cuts and photographs of paintings and drawings. These give an -unusual opportunity to study the art of this master. Three Women Arrested. Irene Crawford, Katie Gray and Beat rice Lerols, colored, were arrested last night on the complaint of Meatarl Caklo, a Japanese, who claimed they robbed him of 55. The women live on Flanders street. It is said they enticed the Japanese into the house and in a friendly scuffle robbed him of the money. The charge of lar cony will he preferred against the women this morning, as they, were only arrested for vagrancy. GENERAL WILLIAMS REVIEWS THIRD INFANTRY, O. N.

Northwestern & Pacific. 53 miles. The following table shows the new track laid In the United States from January 1 to December 31, 1904: Pacific Coast Vill Bs Especially For tunate In New Lines and Exten sions of Old Ones to Many Points.- The year 1905 promises to be a lively one In the railroad world, and already contracts which have been postponed or have been dormant or months are begin ning to show new life and prospect of commencement. Throughout the Northwest are spring ing rumors which each day seem to be of more definite character that large proj ects are being planned for this part of the Union and that the year wilt see gr&t things happen. The railroads,, through their managements, say nothing unless it is to deny the stories of immediate con struction, yet these denials do not seem to discourage those who have made up their minds that the time is ripe for the resumption of constructive work aban doned years ago. Out of all this mass of conjecture, how ever, can be gleaned a list of new projects and extensions, not only In the Northwest but throughout the whole United States and Canada, some of which are under contract, .some admitted to be authorized and all showing that the steel bands so much needed to bind together the varied Interests of the country are 4o be sup plied to the extent of thousands of miles. Many Contracts Let. In 1904 there was a falling off of more than 1500 miles of new track completed in the United States In comparison with the year before, but this year promises to make up the deficit. The work of last year was devoted In great part to the completion of work already begun, but now fresh life Is coming Into the busi ness and contracts are being let througll out the country for new projects of differ ent magnitude. It is shown in the Railway Age of March 24 that there are now 7500 miles of" new track under contract or construction, while live projects In different parts of tho United States promise the early con struction of an additional 9332 miles of road. Of these two 'classes the Pacific States claim 933 miles under contract or construction and 2000 miles projected. Every state and territory is represented in the list of extensions, with the excep tion of two or three New England States. The mileage will be as widely distributed as it has been in the past, though the larger percentage of extension will be "in the Southern and Southeastern States. The roads considered under the head of live projects include the entire line of the Western Pacific from San Francisco to Salt Lake City, more than $00 miles In length; 294 miles of the Denver. North western &. Pacific, and 220 miles of the Berlin cut-off of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, In New Mexico. According to the Railway Age again. State Arkansas California Colorado .

The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway is to add 3500 miles of new road to its lines, to stretch from Moncton, N. B.. west via Quebec and Winnipeg to the Pacific Coast, probably at Port Simpson. This main line will he approximately 3200 miles, and to It will be added a branch line to Lake Superior oi 220 miles. The construction of more than 1700 miles of this line from Winnipeg to Port Simp son Is said to have been awarded to Uni ted States contracting firms, and the work will be rushed to completion as rapidly as possible. The Canadian Northern has under con struction more than 1000 miles of new track in Manitoba and the Northwest, and has various other extensions under contemplation. Altogether, it is expected In railroad circles that 1905 will see a general revival in the matter of .construction, and It would appear that out of the whoe mass the Northwest would get Its share of the spoils. SPAR FOR TIME All Candidates Play a Waiting Game, EACH STRIVES FOR VANTAGE Albee's Rivals Want Him 'to Commit Himself, and Coaxing Commit tee Tries to Get Dr. Lane's Consent. Republican rivals of Mayor Williams are awaiting for one another to enter the primaries, some fearing to encounter His Honor alone In the nominating contest, and others hoping that the aspirants who shall fight him for the nomination will be killed off. thereby opening the way for themselves to run as Independents. Boomers of H. R. Albee'. George H. Howell. Fred T. Merrill. H. S. Rowe. William A. Storey, Ralph W. Hoyt and others find their candidates in the anxious class, desirous of avoiding the nominating contest with Williams, lest they go in single-handed and less courageous brethren profit by their defeat. On all sides It Is believed even by re formers that Williams can beat his rivals easier In the primaries than in the elec tion; hence the reformers are unwilling to let their champions, like Albee and Howell, run the risk of being slaughtered In the primaries. Want Albee to Declare Hlmsel All the opponents of Williams are wait ing on Albee to declare his plans whether he purposes to go Into the prl 'maries or to stay out. Should he stay out It looks as If the others would do so, too. and that Williams would have no op position for the nomination. Backers of Williams are already declaring that they expect to see- their man nominated with out a fight. What will Albee do? He says that his mind Is made Up. but that he will not announce his purpose yet awhile. If he has resolved to go into the primaries he has heard many protests from, his friends in the. last few days. Tet if he plans to run Independently, why did ho come out so soon? That Is a constantly recurring question in gossiping circles. klf he" shall now stay out of the primaries. will not people say that he was afraid to go In, and will not the effect be In jurious to his Independent candidacy? Since he has announced his candidacy and calls himself a Republican, should he not allow his party to choose between him and others at the primaries and abide by its verdict? Such questions are common topics of discussion. But on Albee's side it is said that if the advantage in the primaries lies with Wil liams. Albee is not obliged to enter a fight wherein the odds are against him. and that his opponents betray cowardice in seeking to avoid him in the election. . Watch With Eagle Eyes. Merrill and HoWell especially are watch ing Albee with eagle eyes. So impatient Is Merrill that he has declared he may challenge Albee to enter the primaries, thus to bring to a "head on May 6 the Is sue between open and closed town.

Ladies' Patent Oxfords, very latest style, broad silk, ties, $400 and $3.50 would divide the open-town vote between Williams and Merrill, hut the latter thinks Albee would be beaten anyhow. Still, If Merrill was convinced that that spilt of the open-town vote would nominate the closed-town candidate, he says he would stay out. To the people who regard Merrill's can didacy as a Joke, that gentleman himself has prophecies to make. He says that the liquor and sporting vote has not full confidence In Williams and that it fears Williams might take a notion into his head to use them hard were he again elected. Howell boomers have it figured out that If Albee shall be worsted In the primar ies the way will be open for their man to ride, to glory. Consequently, they are waiting for Albee to go In, and as their hope of securing the indorsement of the Municipal League lies in Albee's defeat, perhaps the wish Is father to the thought. Joint Coaxing Committee. Democrats are working like big folks to bring forth Dr. Harry Lane, who Is disposed to flirt awhile before taking the Dernocratlc nomination for better or for worse. The Joint coaxing committee of the two Democratic clubs has not yet had audience with Dr. Lane, and veils Its do ings In dense secrecy. Its first purpose Is to cure factionalism in the party, so as to give the doctor a united party, for this is Insisted on by him as one of the conditions on which he will accept the nomination. Then again the coaxing committee is waiting to see what its Republican breth ren are going to do. And as many of its Republican brethren hope that Thomas -will beat Lane for the Democratic nom ination, so they themselves hope that Wil liams will win the Republican nomination for they see In that outcome several In dependent candidates In the field to split the Republican power. In such a split they believe that all their chance of victory lies. George S- Shepherd, of the law firm of Shepherd, Anderson & Cellars. Is the first announced candidate for Councilman of the Fourth Ward, aside from A. K. Bent ley, who represents that ward In the Coun cil now. Mr. Shepherd, whose residence Is 374 Yamhill street, filed his declaration of candidacy &r the Republican nomina tion with the City Auditor yesterday af ternoon. As to his policy, he says: "If I am nominated and elected I will advocate the following principle, to-wit: Speak softly, but carry a big stick. " ARRESTED P0R HORSESTEALING D. W. Mays, of Portland, Taken to Oregon City. Dan W. Mays, of Portland, was arrest ed In this city last evening on a charge of larceny. He Is accused of stealing seven head of horses from farmers In Clackamas Count?. He was taken to Ore gon City last night by Sheriff J. R. Shaver and Constable H. W. Trembath. Mays Is a horsetrader and has lived in Port land for some time. He has relatives here. About a month ago seven horses were stolen from farmers living within a few miles of Oregon City. Charles Mink was the principal loser, having four head sto len. The horses were afterwards sold to ex-Mayor Burgman at Astoria. They were shipped from Columbia County to Astoria by boat. Mays, when seen last evening, stated that he accompanied the seven horses to Astoria, where they were sold, but that he only had one of Ihem, the other six head belonging to a man named Charley Decker. Mays said, he purchased his horse from two Italians in Portland, but did not know where Decker obtained his animals. An effort Is being made to apprehend Decker. Mays was seen in Oregon City shortly before the disappearance of the animals In, company with another man. It is pre sumed that this man was Decker, as Mays admits having been with him at Astoria.

Each calls Itself anointed and the other heretic The Matthews-Carey outfit re gards the other as a bunch of Slrnonites in disguise and seeking to usurp the rights that belonfc to the regular organ ization of the party; the "new deal" braves, headed by S. C Beach, resent the aspersion and say that their ranks are recruited from the camps of both the old time factions and 'from untamed brethren who have consorted with neither. Each With Headquarters. Each naa its own headquarters' pla carded "Republican" the Matthews Carey braves in the McKay building, where the captains of the war used to counsel with "Whitney L Boise, chairman of the County and City Central Commit tee, but where the thud of their footsteps now rarely awakens the sleeping echoes: the Beach stalwarts In an unplastered room at 109 Second street. Each, rival has its own ward and precinct organization, tho "new deal" contingent possessing newly-appointed workers, the other re taining its bid-time tollers, who have been doing little of late. On the door of the "new deal" temple appeared yesterday the sign "Republican headquarters" emblazoned in glaring let ters. Inside were bare floors instead of the soft carpets that adorn the headquar ters of "Whitney L. Boise. Mr. Beach, before putting up the sign Republican headquarters at 109 -Second street, did not ask Mr. Boise to take down the same sign In the McKay building. "No," said Mr. Beach las night, "I did not consult Mr. Boise nor anyone else." "Didn't you go to see Mr. Bolser "No, I was afraid, er, ah, he might throw me out the window." The "new deal" organization assumed the name Republican last week and has set about to make good its claim of being the organization of tho party. Unto its banner It has called all elements who have grown weary of service in the Simon and the Mitchell factions.

"Slats" Davis defeated Keith in a game of billiards at Reddlck's last night, and the bellow he gave could have been hard a mile in the open. .Being inclosed, it rat tled the windows. Jarred the peaceful pool balls In their racks on the walls, and even penetrated Into the 1uter open In sufficient volume to cause a "night-hawk" cab horse to lift his ears, "Slats' " voice is not so very beautlfuL but It Is lusty. It sounded as If it had come out of the sagebrush and had not had much opportunity to ease itself of late. But the occasion justified its use. Keith led off in a very, chipper manner, keeping "Slats" in his wake till he reached S6. "With 50 as game". "Slats' hammered away In the rear, and when he made k run, Keith pegged off a few more and left him behind again. But 36 was Keith's climax. "Slats" passed him and won the game, six in the lead.
