CONGRESS FAILED TO ACT Chairman of Commission Says Sup plies Are Bought at Home in Open Competition Morton Eulogizes Roosevelt. CHICAGO. May 21. Paul Morton, Sec retary of the Navy, and Theodore P. Shonts. chairman of the Panama Canal Commission, were the guests of the Chi cago Bankers' Club at a banquet here tonight. Just as Mr. Morton had taken the floor to commence his speech, Graeme Stewart, ex-National committeeman of the Hepubllcan party In Illinois, fell for ward in his chair unconscious. He was quickly carried to a sofa at the side of the room and several physicians who were present worked over him for sev eral minutes before they were able to restore him to consciousness. , He was afterward taken home much improved. His illness was an acute attack of lndl-. gestlon coupled -with a slight congestion of the brain. Mr. Morton was asked to respond to the toast of "The President," and after expressing his pleasure at being able to meet the members of the Bankers' Club, he said of President Roosevelt: "He is, taken all In all, one of the most remarkable of all of the great men who have occupied the White House. As earnest Is his love of country as Wash ington, as far-seeing as Jefferson, as courageous as Jackson, and as much op posed to human slavery In all forms as Abe Lincoln, he stands robust In his in tegrity and sturdy In his determination that there shall be a 'square deal all around.' " Mr. Shonts said: "Congress, for some reason unknown to us, although twice asked to declare Its: wishes, failed to limit the purchase of materials and sup piles entering Into the construction of the canal to the American markets. "Whatever the absence of the instructions from Congress, the commission feels it Is its duty to make its purchases in what ever markets of the world It can buy cheapest. This policy It Is pursuing, and. inasmuch as It is getting the great mass of its supplies in American markets, the inference is plain that, notwithstanding our protective laws and notwithstanding our high wages to labor, the American markets are in the main the cheapest markets in the world." WILL HELP IN THE CAUSE Christian Endeavorers Join Hands With Travelers' Aid. A meeting of the various executive committees of the Christian Endeavor organizations of the city was hefd at the Forbes Presbyterian Church Tuesday night, for the purpose of discussing a plan by which the Christian Bndeavorers might assist in the work of the Travelers Aid Association this Summer. The mem bers of all branches o'f the Christian En deavor have been Intensely interested in the particular line of work which will b,e followed for the protection of girls and women during the Exposition, and it was decided to offer services as a combined or ganization. Superintendent Mrs. L. G. Baldwin was present and enthusiastically entered Into the plan of the Christian Endeavor to enter this useful field, and plans will Immediately be consummated apportioning certain branches of the Travelers' Aid work to that body. "We can't have too many workers In this." Mrs. Baldwin said yesterday. "You would hardly believe what I have been able to accomplish myself In the short time I have been devoting my time to this association: and If we had a great number of workers there would be no limit to the great amount of good which could be accomplished through their ef forts. Portland has been sadly behind In such movements. All Eastern cities have had the Travelers' Aid for a long time, and statistics show that It Is a great power for good and for progress." A pile of letters lay before the super intendent. They were from girls and women In all parts of the Northwest. The one on top came from British Co lumbia. The writer had seen the cards of warning which have been posted and had read articles In her home paper concern ing the Portland association. "I had intended going to Portland to get a position of some kind this Sum mer," she wrote, "but I have read in the papers that girls should not come there unprotected. Will you write me what to do? Or do you know of any position I could get there?" "This and all the others show that -we arc In touch with the newspapers of the Northwest." Mrs. Baldwin remarked. "Fully 600 papers have published our arti cles and over 3000 cards of warning have been posted in various towns and cities. That they are being read Is evidenced by these. "I have a conference with a representa tive of the Council of Jewish Women and also with one from the Catholic so cieties tomorrow, and we will formulate some plan of co-operation In the work. We want women of every creed and na tionality In this work, for It is purely nonsectarlan and every woman In Port land or in the state should lend her As sistance.' SAY ELECTION WAS ILLEGAL Attorneys Declare St. Johns Bond Issue Is Not Lawful. It is the opinion of some attorneys who have looked Into the matter, that the bond ' election held In St. Johns Monday was Illegal, and that It will be Impossible to float the 510.000 bonds voted. The char ter provides that the ballots must specify just what the bonds are for, and how much the Issue Is. In the official notice of the election, published over the signa ture of Recorder J. W. Hanks, the four bond issues, aggregating J10.000. were specified, and it was expected that these four propositions would be specified on the official ballot. It had been announced that the people could defeat one or more of the .propositions, but when the ballots were printed the official notice -was not followed. It was simply specified on the ballot that the bonds were for public buildings, a public dock, lire apparatus and for paying public indebtedness. Ref erence is made in the official ballot to the published notice for further Information as to the amount of the bonds to be is sued, and what they are for. hut that Is all. One attorney says that under the charter it must be specified on the ballot what "the bonds are for, and how much they are to call for. but as this was not done the election was clearly illegal, and that the bonds cannot be floated. On the other hand, however, the bonds were carried by such an overwhelming majority there can be no mistaking the wishes, of the people, and the courts might construe that the intent of the people is sufficiently set forth and hold the election legal on that ground. It. B. "Chlpaaaa. member of the St. Jofess Cotaiaerclal Club. says that the reason that the bond issue was lumped together as a whole was to prevent any single proposition being de feated. "The Commercial Club indorsed the is suing of bonds to pay off the Miner debt and the erection of the dock," said Mr. Cblpman, "but opposed Issuing bonds for public grounds and erection of a city hall, and the ballot was so framed as to make it impossible to vote against a single proposition without voting against the whole, and that we did not want to do. It -is the opinion of those with whom I have talked that the election was illegal and a farce. I should not care to take the bonds under the election." It Is evident .that all four of the bond Issues would have carried bad they been stated separately on the ballot, and that the lumping of them together as a whole was unnecessary, and may cause a very serious complication, requiring another special election. ROB CONTRIBUTION BOXES Detectives Looking for Boys' Who Who Steal From Salvation ArruyV Even the contribution boxes of the Sal vation Army, placed on counters of cigar stores and other olaces of business, are SOPRANO- SOLOIST AT NORD PACIFIC SAENGERBUND, LEWIS AND CLARK EXPOSITION pxtyjBSMSSSJSSpSplMBs BJPHi MRS. ROSEMARY GLOSZ WHITNEY. On of the greatest music carnivals ever held In thli portion of the country will be the Nord Pacific Saengerbund at the Lewis and Clark Exposition, and for this saengerbund Mrs. Rosemary GIosz Whitney, of this city, has Just been en gaged as the soprano soloist. The engagement was decided upon yesterday at a meeting of the governing board of the saengerbund, Paul Wesslnger, president, and It Is particularly gratifying that a Portland singer has been chosen to rep resent this city at such an important musical event. Beatrice Dierke, the emi nent planiste of this city and one of the most cultured and finished players in America, has been engaged aa planiste on this occasion. The saengerbund meets here from July 21 to 23, and musicians, especially those belonging to German singing societies, from all portions of the Pacific Northwest will participate. It will be Germany in America, and will not be duplicated in this city possibly for another generation. Mrs. Whitney, who recently arrived here from New York City, has sung In opera for several years with marked success, and she has also been engaged as the soprano Koiolst with DIerke's band that plays one month, beginning July 27, at the Lewis and Clark Exposition. not safe from attack by a trio of young boys. Within the past few days the police have been notified of the theft of four of these boxes, with cash aggregating perhaps J6. It is impossible to tell the exact sum, as contributors donate whatever amount they wish, depositing the coins in the bcyces. Not until the cash Is collected by an officer of the Army, assigned by the corps officers. Is It known what each box contains. One of the boxes was taken from the counter In the cigar store of Police Com missioner SIg Sichel. That all were stolen In the light of day is the theory of De tectives Kerrigan and Snow, who have been at work on the cases for two days. "We have worked hard on these cases, and have found out who did the stealing." said Detective Snow. "We have traced it to a gang of three boys. We will now turn the matter over to the Boys'-- and Girls' Aid Society, and let the offlclals.of that organization take whatever steps, they deem necessary." One of the boxes was recovered by De tectives Kerrigan and Snow. It was traced step by step and finally located In the basement of the Fulton building, on Sixth street. The boys alluded to had taken it there and broken It open to get the coin, it is stated. Another of the boxes was stolen from the store of Boldlng Bros., jewelers, on Third street, near Burnslde. This firm also reported the theft to-the police. The other two boxes known to have been stolen were not reported to police head quarters, but during their investigation Detectives Kerrigan and Snow ascertained that two more had been stolen.

IF GARFiELD HAS POWER President favorably Entertains Re quest From Xcw York Merchants Association May Refer It to Congress. WASHINGTON. May 2L An effort was made today to Induce the President to take an active Interest In the complica tions which have arisen In the affairs of the Equitable Life Assurance Society. Clarence Whitman, president of the Mer chants' Association of New York, had a. conference with the President on the sub ject. Details of the conference were not obtainable, but It Is known that Mr. Whitman urged the President to take up the subject with a view either of ordering a Government investigation or of making recommendations to Congress on the sub ject of insurance legislation. Mr. Whitman's suggestion was not the first of its kind that the President has received. In a letter from a prominent New York man, whose name Is not dis closed, the President recently was urged strongly to institute an investigation of the Equltable's affairs by Government of ficials. It can be said that up to this time the President has not seen his way clear to taking any action in the case of the Equitable Company specifically. Some general Investigation of Insurance cor porations has been made already by the Bureau of Corporations, but it Is under stood that the Information obtained was purely of a general character. Commissioner Garfield, of the Bureau of Corporations Is engaged now In an effort to determine whether the Govern ment has authority to make an investiga tion of a specific character into the In surance question without action hy Con gress. The impression Is general in offi cial circles that the commissioner prob ably would have no power to make such an Inquiry, unless It first was authorized by the Congress. What. If any. action may be taken by the Government at the instance of the President, . cannot be In dicated at this time. It is understood, however, not to be unlikely that the Pres ident may discuss the subject and make some recommendations regarding it In a message to- Congress. PRESIDENT WILLING TO ACT Only Question Is Whether" Govern ment Has Power. NEW YORK. May 2i. William F. King, cx-presldent of the New York Merchants' Association, has" received a reply from President Roosevelt to Mr. King's suggestion that a National com mittee be named to investigate the affairs of the Equitable Life Assurance Society Mr. King regards the reply as favorable! One paragraph from the President's let ter was as follows: "The department (of Commerce and Labor) Is now carefully going Into the matter, to see whether the Government has any power or not."

May 24. Will iam J. Bryan appeared In the Probate Court here today at a hearing on the accounts of the estate of the late Pbllo S. Bennett, of which Mr. Bryan is ad ministrator. During the examination Mr. Bryan was subjected to a rapid fire of questions from Attorney Henry Stoddard, .counsel for Mrs. Grace L Bennett, the widow, and at times con siderable impatience was manifested by boh questioner and the witness. Attorney White was first put on the stand, as counsel for the administra tor, to explain the accounts, but Mr. Bryan Interrupted so frequently that Mr. Stoddard suggested that Mr. Bry an wait until he was on the stand be fore he attempted to explain matters. Mr. Bryan then said: "Your Honor. I object to the insinu ations thrown out by Judge Stoddard. For IS months I have heard these in sinuations, and I am tired of it. I am willing to testify. I want to testify." Mr. Bryan went on the stand and was questioned by Judge Stoddard. Judge Stoddard took up the item of $2500 for Mr. Bryan's own service. Said he: "Mr. Bryan what did you charge $2500 for?" "For usual and extraordinary serv ices as executor." replied Mr. Bryan. "What were the usual and what were the extraordinary services?" "The usual services were those per formed as executor and the extraordi nary services were those In contesting the attempt to remove the executor and In defense against the attacks upon the will itself." "I ask you again, what have you done In settlement of this estate?" Mr. Bryan replied: "I have dis charged the duties of executor to the best of my ability, and while I have told the attorneys to put into the ac count what they thought to be a fair charge for my services, I Intend to use a part of that money to carry out the desire of Mr. Bennett for which he set apart certain trust funds. The inherit ance taxe.3 have reduced- the trust funds, and I shall use about $1300 to make up the deficiency." The wish of Mr. Bennett was that prizes be given In about 40 colleges for excellence In essays on the topic "Free Principles of Government,." and the money for the prizes was provided for In the will. Afterward Mr. Bryan was questioned as to the Items Included In his own fee for -services of $2503. He was asked whether It Included pay for any trips from his home In Nebraska to New York or New Haven in connection with the bequest of $30,000 for himself and family, contained In the sealed letter left by Mr. Bennett. He replied that It did not Include these trips. Mr. Bryan expected to go o New York and return here tomorrow when the hearing will be continued. Soon after the close of the session today he paid a call to Mrs. Bennctt. the wllow of Phllo S. Bennett. PREPARE THEIR OWN MEALS Domestic Science School Pupils, Cook a Luncheon. One of Miss Tingle's many classes at the Domestic Science School Is composed entlrelv of puolls from St. Helen's Hall. and this class yesterday finished its first course In cooking. A luncheon was given In celebration of the event, each dish on the menu being prepared by the young ladles themselves. Covers were laid for ten and the table artistically decorated by these sensible girls who have added the art of cookery to their other accom plishments. If they can have as much fun when they go into motners Kitcnen to prepare a meal or an emergency dish for the family dinner as they were having over their salads and croquettes yester day the high and mighty cook, who has heretofore made life a burden and the housewife's purse ofttlmes as flat as the proverbial flounder, will be looking for real work. Ten girls with their immaculate aprons and sleeves f rolled up made the kitchen end of the Domestic Science School look vcrv businesslike as they industriously plied their art. They looked pretty, every one of them, for their faces were flushed and their eyes as bright as new dollars. And the cakes and salads they were pre paring looked good, too. Recipes for each article on the menu were written on a bulletin near at hand, and there were fre quent references to them to avoid such calamities as too many eggs or not enough flour, or other tragedies such as man knows not of In the commonplace business world. "They have confidence In themselves," Miss Tingle was explaining while she su perintended the closing of a freezer into wnlch the sherbet had Just been placed "They had the privilege of inviting guests to this luncheon, but they decided they would rather eat It themselves. Now that was brave, wasn't It?" An attractive-looking girl got very busy with some tin molds in which she was going to bake potato puffs. Our old-time cooks used to "grease the pans, general ly with the end of the fingers, which were unceremoniously stuck into the lard buck et. But they dou't do things that way In these days of domestic science. One might say that she oiled the pans, for It was done to a nicety with the aid of a long-handled camel's-halr brush, kept for the purpose. A cup. of melted lard stood by her side, and with this and the brush she deftly prepared the molds so that the puffs would not stick. At the next table another girl was molding croquettes with the aid of a little glmcrack which obviated the necessity of handling the meat with the bare hands. "Why are you learning to cook just for the fun of the thing?" "Oh. it's lots of fun, but that's not the reason I'm learning. We haven't any cook just now, and mother rather expects me to help her out In such emergencies when I get home from school. Besides every girl ought to know how to cook, don't you think?" She had the right Idea, and the others had. too. They were working to get the most out of their instruction, and with a will. Miss Tingle was Immensely pleased with them, and so was the sister who ac companied them from the hall and sat in the corner with her book while the prep aration of the luncheon went on. "These are the girls every home needs girls whose accomplishments extend all the way to the kitchen." This is what they had for luncheon: Puree of Green Peas. Croutons. Veal Croquettes. Potato Paffc Hot Italic. Fruit Salad. Dates. Oranges and Nuts. Strawberry Sherbet. Nut Bars. Bock Cakes. Coffee. Orator for Massachusetts Day. BOSTON, May 34. Governor Douglas to day appointed ex-Congressman John R. Thayer, of Worcester, to be orator on June 17. Massachusetts Day at the Lewis and. Clark Exposition at Portias. COMING WITH GREAT RUSH J KANSAS FARMERS SWAR3I TO BUY TICKETS TO FAIR. Sales on Opening Day Astonish Kan sas City Ticket Ascents Great Boom for Portland. KANSAS CITY. Mo., May 24. (Special.) The sale of special rate tickets to Port land. Or., opened so briskly as to as tonish local railroad officials.

The foremost biologist of our day, XL Metsehnikoff, has shown the world of science that there are leucocyte ia our blood that act as scavengers or policemen. These policemen which are called JkafO cyies look out for the noxious or poisonous elements in oar. blood. Various offending elements are picked out of the blood and tissues by these policemen and destroyed. Therefore our lives are protected by these bloodell:policemen, the phagocytes, and we enjoy immunity from disease so long as oar blood contains plenty of phago cytes and red blood corpuscles. "A new broom sweeps clean" and ia order to pat oar own House in order we must get rid of all the poisonsin the blood with a new broom such as an alterative extract made from roots and herbs with out the use of alcohol, as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a snecific for making' rich red blood for eradicating the poisons from the blood. In some way the policemen in the blood are increased in number and strength so that we are put in the best possible shape to resist disease to .cure neuralgia, colds, catarrh, and in cipient consumption. "The more study and time is given to the subject the more we find that the blood is the center of life" says Dr. R. V. Pierce, the noted specialist of "Buffalo, "the health and comfort of the average person depends entirely on this blood supply for the heart most have pare blood or it will Hot pnmp and keep the body supplied regularly like the beautiful automatic engine ft is. The nerves must be fed on pure blood or we suffer the pain of neuralgia, which is the cry of the starved nerves for food. Head aches, cold in the head, catarrh and many other things are due to stagnation of the blood.- Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a mild laxative. No other medicine equals then for gentleness and thoroughness. Schilling's Best make gen erous business. Your grocer is generous with it. Moneyback costs him nothing; costs no body anything.

CITY reservoirs furnish the water for the vast multitudes of people who constitute the population of our numerous cities. These reservoirs are liable to be con taminated.
