graphs of Francis Tv".. Pettygrove and
Amos Liovejoy, together with the
pretty, story of how Portland came by its
name. Here is the version as contained
on the tickets:
How City Was Named.
' Amos I. liovejoy, of Massachusetts,
and Francis W. Pettygrove, of Maine, the
first a pioneer of 1842, and the second
pioneer of 1S43, acquired the original site
of Portland in 154o.
The question of naming the place was
discussed at different times. Mr. Love-
joy wanted to name It Boston, because
that towri was the principal city of his
native state. Mr. Pettygrove desired to
name it Portland for the same reason.
Upon falling to agree Mr. Pettygrove
suggested the matter be decided, by toss
ing a copper cent, to which Mr. Lovejoy
agreed; whereupon Mr. Pettygrove pro
duced a copper cent of the year 1835, and
his choice, heads, came up twice, there
by winning for the future city the name
of Portland.
"This narrative and the pictures pre
sented herewith are from the Oregon
Historical Society's records and are au
thentic" A question that has been arousing con
siderable Interest about the city Is what
inducements are to be offered to families.
It Ib contended that the working man
with a large family cannot afford to pay
the full admission price of 50 cents for
each member of his family. This matter
Is to be taken up by the Exposition man
agement at a later date and the assurance
is given that there will be a special rate
made for children.

diamond cutters at work. The goms
will go through all the processes from

$50 a" share was afterward lovied on the
stock of the Commercial National Bank,
which Wells, Fargo & Co. alleged wa3
necessary to make it a going concern.
The plaintiffs did not pay the assessment
and consequently their stock was sold.
They subsequently sued for the value of
their stock, contending that the assess
ment, was illegal, because it was not voted
for at .a shareholder' meeting, and
charging other Irregularities. They won

stock at the time of the sale was fixed
at,?30 a share.

As City Physician He Holds That
He Should Be Summoned In
All Murder or Sui
cidal Cases.
Dr. James C. Zan receives a salary as
City Physician for Portland, and he pro
poses to attend to the duties of his of
fice. He also demands that he bo recog
nized as the head of his department, and
to that end he held a consultation with
Chief Of Police Hunt yestorday, after
which a general order was promulgated.
It was directed to Captains Gritzmacher,
Moore and Bailey, and said they must
call Dr. Zan In all emergency cases. This
means more than appears on the surface.
Samuel C. Slocum is Assistant City
Physician and he has been attending
practically to all of the police emergency
work for many months. He lives within
easy call of headquarters, and Is avail
able on short notice, day or night. There
fore he has been called, in preference to
Dr. Zan, numerous times. A stop is now
put tp this practice.
Dr. Zan claims there Is no friction be
tween himself and the police, or Dr. Slo
cum, but to this all do not agree. It Is
said that Dr. Slocum has been coming in
for a good deal of notice In connection
with celebrated murder and suicide cases
of late, to the chagrin of Dr. Zan. "What
brought the matter to a crisis. It is ad
mitted by Dr. Zan, was the attempted
suicide of a prominent dentist, Monday
night.
"I was homo all of Monday night, ready
to answer calls," said Dr. Zan. "A prom
inent man shot himself, in an attempt to
take his life. This took place at 10
o'clock, but -the first notlco I received
that anything had happened was when-1
read it in The Orcgonian the next morn
ing. I am City Physician, and it Is my
duty to attend to serious cases. I have
frequently requested the police and Dr.
Slocum to summon me in important
cases, and they have not done so. There
fore, I called Chief Hunt's attention to
the matter."
Chief Hunt's general order was brief
but to tlie point. It was couched in diplo
matic language, and went on to say that
In future cases of murder, suicide or In
jury to persons requiring the services of
a physician. City Physician Zan should be
notified. It is said that if he cannot re
spond he will direct the police on whom
next to call.
Chinese Woman Held for Theft.
Sheriff Word left Portland last night
for Victoria to bring back Sue Sing, a
Chinese woman, arrested at that place
on a charge of larceny of valuable jew
olry and money in Portland two weeks

her white 'sisters, and was about to sail

DISTRIBUTIVE HATES INLAND
Railway Men and Jobbers Will Dis
cuss Them This Afternoon.
The question of distributive rates inlasd
will bo talked over this afternoon at 3
o'clock, when J. C. Stubbs, traffic direc
tor of the Harfiraan system, and J. G.
"Wqodworth. general traffic manager of the
Northern Pacific, will meet with the com
mittee of the North Pacific Coast Jobbers
and Manufacturers' Association for tha
final conference.
The committee appointed at the meeting
of a week ago to delve into the proposi
tion offered the shippers by the, railroad
men met yesterday at the office of "W. A.
Mears, the secretary of the Association,
and a conference lasting the greater part
of the afternoon was held. At that time
the offer of the traffic men was taken up
in detail and discussed, and at the meet
ing this afternoon will be rejected.
It has been found on investigation that
the proposition would not be to the ad
vantage of Portland, and it Is believed by
the jobbers that the railroad representa
tives had no thought of its being accepted,
that the offer was tentative and was made
in an effort to see what the people of thk
Coast would accept in the way of a gift-
There are but two things definite and
certain concerning the meeting called for
this afternoon, one that the conference
will bo held and the other that the offer
of the railroads will be rejected by the
Association. All tho rest Is problematic.
It Is thought that the traffic men when
their proposition is turned down. will, like
Yankee traders, give the Association a
chance to make a counter proposition, and
upon this as a basis It is trusted that
some agreement may be reached which
will be harmonious to all.
Mr. Stubbs will reach Portland thi?
morning from Spokane, and will be ac
companied by R. B. Miller, general freight
agent of the O. Tt. & N.. who Is now with
him on his trip to the Puget Sound cities
and Spokane.
Dr. Hickey Will Probably Recover.
It is believed that Dr. Joseph Hickpy
will recover from the bullet wounds in
dieted by himself at his home on Portland
Heights Monday night. He is resting
quite comfortably at Good Samaritan Hos
pital, and is under the care of City Phy
sician Zan and Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie.
It Is not yet fully known why Dr.
Hickey shot himself, but he la said to
hnve been overworking himself of late.
He has been very nervous, it te stated,
and unablo to sleep for some time. This
Is given as a probable cause for the act.
