FAIR AND WARMER TODAY.
The weather forecast for Portland
says: "Fair and wanner. Easterly
winds." Edward A. Beall. District
Forecaster, predicts:
A high pressure area is central this
evening o,ver Eastern Washington. It
has caused clear weather in the North
Pacific -States with sllRhtly higher
temperatures. The indications are for
fair and warmer weather In this dis
trict Tuesday. Sharp frosts will occur
in the early morning.
Music filled the whole Exposition yester
day until the very leaves of the foliage
vibrated with Its enchanting, delightful
strains. Go where you might, morning,
afternoon or evening, melody flooded Into
the cars. Here one might catch a fleeting
Impression of "William Tell." or "I Pag
HaccI," or "Carmen," or "The Tanhhau
ser March"; thence came the familiar
notes of "Old Black Joe," or "Dixie" or
"The Star-Spangled Banner."
There was music for every ear. Chopin
was there, and Mendelssohn and Liszt and
"Verdi and "Wagner and Rossini. And so
were GImbel and Foster and De Koven
and Hastings. In short,, there was a lit
tle of everything, from Rubinstein's "Mel
ody in F" to "Yankee Doodle." In every
building there was a varied programme.
Nor was any of It "wasted .on the desert
air." People came early and came late.
They came in twos and threes and In
droves, Ailing every building at every con
certand there were 24 bfj,'these concerts in
all. It was a musical triumphr Itwss a day
that tended to a- higher appreciation not
only of esthetics but of ethics; and. thus
the day represented one of the mosf. Im
portant C1Clll!Slr5,v" fhe Exposltioqj-for
which too much credit may not be .given
to Frederick W. Goodrich, of Portland,
who planned and carried ihe day to a
successful termination.
Great credit, too, is due those who vol
unteered to participate in the various pro
grammes. Many of those who. took part
are well known in local music circles;
others come from different points in the
Northwest All put their very best Into
the work, bent upon making the day the
musical festival it was.

Hull Does .Not Believe Senate

THINKS ELKINS IS FOOLING
West Virginia Senator at Old Tricks.
- Dalzcll Denies Existence of
..Tariff Revision Sentiment
Among Republicans.'
OREGONIAN XEAVS BUREAU. "Wash
ington. Oct. 9. "There is going to be a
lively fight at the coming session of Con
gress over the railroad rate problem, and
the House will go with the President."
That is the view of Representative Hull,
of Iowa, chairman of the committee on
military affairs, and a man well posted
on legislative matters.
Mr. Hull, being an experienced law
maker, and a careful man, will not ven
ture a prediction as to what the Senate
will do with the rate ques'tion, but after
a conference with the President, he de
clares that Mr. Roosevelt is as determined
as everthat Congress shall act in a man
ner to cure the "railroad evil." and he Is
satisfied that the Administration will leave
no stone unturned to accomplish this re
suit.
Mr. Hull is one of those men who take
little stock In tile declarations of such
men as Senator Elklns, when they come
out and announce that the Senate will
very promptly pass a railroad rate bill.
He knows, as other practical men know,
that the Senate Is not apt to do any
such thing; he knows Mr. Elklns well
enough to be aware that this is his meth
od of campaign. In hla own state, where
other Republicans are seeking to wrest
the Sena'torshlp from Mr. Elklns, the sen
ior West Virginia Senator has cleverly
thrown out a sop to every faction in hla
party; he has. endeavored to make it ap
pear that he is in sympathy with every
party leader, and is working for his in
terests. At the same time. Mr. Elklns Is
manipulating affairs in West Virginia
in a manner that will undoubtedly result
in his own reflection,- and the over
throw of every Insurgent who takes aides
against him.
So It Is with the rate bill. Mr. Elklns
professes . to tauor ', rate legislation and
gives assurance tiiat a satisfactory M
will soon- pass the Senate. That is to
allay the' prevailing fear; It Is a clever
move or! the. part-of Mr. Elklns, who at
heart Is as anxlouw as any man In Con
gress to' prevent the passage of such, a bill
as President Roosevelt favors.
MEMBER FOR STEEIi TRUST
Dalzcll Can't Find Revision Senti
ment Because He,aren't.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. "Wash
ington, Oct. 9. Representative Dalzell. of
Pennsylvania, the most radical stand-pat
Republican in the House of Representa
tives, and the man who is supposed to
more closely represent the views of the
steel trust than any otfifcr In the lower
branch of Congress, on a recent visit to
Washington reiterated the statement he
has several times made that he "has
been unable to find In this country any
important sentiment In favor of tariff re
vision." Mr. Dalzcll is going to adhere to
his stand-pat doctrine, but It is perhaps
natural that he should.
Without the support of the steel trust,
or. .more accurately spea'klng, in the face
of the opposition of 'the steel trust, Mr.
Dalzell could pever come to Congress.
To that extent he owes his position to
that mighty corporation, which has its
stronghold In his home city, Pittsburg.
The steel trust makes and unmakes men
in Pittsburg; it can make or unmake
Dalzell. Naturally, this Congressman is
PRESIDENT GOODE URGES ALL TO ATTEND THE CLOSING DAYS OF THE FAIR
The Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition has entered upon the last week of its existence. After four
and a half months of phenomenal, unprecedented success, the greatest enterprise in the history of the North
west will terminate next Saturday evening. ,
Great exhibit and state palaces, marvels of architectural neautj- and splendor, will he razed to. th
ground, having served the useful purpose for which they were constructed. Exhibits from -the ends of the
earth will ie sent back to the distant lands whence they -were brought. Portland will cease to be the host
of a world. ,
While the people of Portland and Oregon and of the entire Pacific .Coast may look with pride upon the
wonderful success they have combined to make of the Exposition, they have yet a duty to perform. That is
to make even greater the rsults that have already been achieved. Since there are only five days for this,
all should act promptly.' The Exposition should have a larger "attendance this week than during any similar
period since its opening das.
No one can look upon It as an unpleasant duty to visit the Exposition again and again this week. There
are very few people, possibly not any, who have reaped the full benefits of 'the Fair, who have seen Intel
gently all that Is. represented of the world's arts, sciences-, crafts, governments. Institutions, In short, of all
the products of mind, of hand and of earth. Artist and artisan alike can yet find many things of deep and
practical interest. And at the same time every admission raises the score of victory achieved by Portland,
by Oregon, and the Coast at large.
Aside from .the things of practicable interest, the programme for the week has been drawn to a liberal
scale. Six band concerts a day, special dally airship flights, Hfesavlng exhibitions, muslcales. daily recep
tions to the public In all state, buildings, fireworks, and the hundred and one Incidental attractions of & na
ture appealing to all fancies, are announced by President H. W. Goode.
The weather, which Invariably plays so prominent a part in shaping the destinies of such sntorprtscs,
showed up at its best yisterday. It was an Ideal Autumn day, with a bright October sun, and Just enough
cr!spne,ssjn the air to make sightseeing pleasant- The clear atmosphere and steady sun haU an air of per
manency, .and It is probable that similar days bf Ideal weather may be expected through the week. "Atmos
pheric'condltlons," says the weather man, ."indicate that such will be the case."
"People who wish to see the Exposition must come this weeko"r never." said President Goode yesterday.
"I feel that every one should come and- bring the children. We want the. children to get all they can of
this Exposition. To thehi Its educational value Is greater than a few days in school, and I would favor sev
eral half-holidays in" all schools this week. First the schools should let the children free and then parents
should see to It that they attend the Exposition. " I am afraid there are many who do not appreciate or stop
to consider how long It may be again before they have a similar opportunity of feeing so much. Portland
will probably never have another Exposition. There Is no record of any. city or state having held two fars
of International scope.
"People ought to make It their business this week to gain a comprehensive understanding of the exhibits
throughout the Fair. Especially, I say again, ."does this apply to thechildren. Wh!lePortland has scored a
tremendous success, the people should make it even greater." x

not going to launch1 forth on any cam
paign which would be disapproved by his
friends, the steel trus- It would bo
ungrateful, for, one thing; it would be
political suicide, for another.
The steel - trust Is going to feel the
first effect of tariff revision when It
comes, whether it be this year or next,
or a decade hence. The steel schedule is
regarded as the most unjust of all the
Dlngley rates,xand there is a greater de
mand for Its reduction or absolute aboli
tion than for that of any other schedute.
in the Dlngley law. The tariff on steel
was Imposed to protect an "Infant Indus
try." The steel trust can no longer coma
in that class. It no longer needs protec
tion, and the rate on steel Is today doing
greater Injustice to American business
than any other one tariff schedule.
It is fortunate for the steel trust that
Mr. Dazell has attained, a place of con
siderable prominence and Influence In Con
gress. He Is a man of great ability; he
is bright and ready; Tie is well placed on
committees,, being not only a member of
the committee on rules, which very large
ly shapes the work of the House, but is
next to the chairman of ways and means,
which frames all tariff legislation. In
those positions Mr. Dalzell is able to do
more than any other man, save Speaker
Cannon himself, to block unfavorable tar
iff legislation; that la legislation which is
regarded unfavorable by his friends.
Mr. Dalzell does not openly pose as the
representative of the steel trust; no Sen
ator or member does that, no matter what
interests give. him. his scat and hold, him
there. But as a consistent member and a
friend of the trust, "Mr. Dalzell must, from
time io tlmt. give reasons why he takes
his stand on dio tariff question, and that
is why he repeats at Intervals that he
finds.no important sentiment In favor of
revision.
Bu. he says more. He says that the
vote returned in the election last Novem
ber shows unmistakably that the people
do not want any change In Governmental
policies. ' but a continuance of prevailing
conditions. Had they wanted revision, he
says, that fact would have become evi
dent last November. Mr. Dalzell says
the country is overwhelmingly In favor
of letting the tariff alone. He says there
will be no tariff revision at the coming
session, because there are "enough protec
tionists to prevent any lowering of the
tariff." He does not) consider those Re
publicans who Iavor tariff revision pro
tectionists; he believes the stand-pat fac
tion embraces more than . a majority of
the majority party in both House and
Senate.
FAIRBANKS PXiAYS ABRAHAM,
Sacrifices His Son to Public Protest
Against Nepotism.
OREGON1AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Oct. 9. The campaign against
nepotism, -which has been carried on by
the newspapers for the past month or
two. hag borne results la one conspicu
ous Instance. Vice-President Fairbanks,
wao -?-as crlUdfei for appointing his son
hfs private secretary almost immediately
after he himself took the oath as Vlcg
Presldent, now announces that the "tem
porary appointment of bis son" will term
inate when Congress convenes In Decem
ber, and that someone else will, then be
chosen for this position. .
The funny thing about this announce
ment Is that there are no "temporary
appointments" at the Capitol;, that is a
term that is not known among the legis
lators. Each Senator and the Vice-President
appoints, whom he chooses for his
private secretary, and the appointment
holds during the pleasure of the Senator
or Vice-President. Mr. Fairbanks is
merely yielding to pressure. He realizes
that he made a bad break when he ap
pointed his son private secretary, and he
is going to correct the error. Doubtless
some other illustrious men who have
practiced nepotism In Washington will
yield to pressure Public sentiment seems
to be quite thoroughly aroused.

PEORIA. III.. Oct. 9. (Special.) A new
sensation came in the N. C. .Dougherty
scandal tonight, when Annie Wald. aged
20. a widow employed as housekeeper In
the Dougherty home, suddenly became
violently insane. The uncle of the young
woman telephoned the Chief of Police de
manding that Dougherty be closely guard
ed, as he believes him responsible for her
condition. The story has been kept quiet,
friends' of the girl saying her sudden In
sanity was due to religious enthusiasm.
She' was taken to a hospital, but the
nurses advised that she be removed to
her old home in Tremont. 111., and her
mother will take charge of her.
This new and sensational phase of the
affair will be rigidly Investigated, as it
bears out the hints that Dougherty was
an accomplished hypnotist, something that
has been whispered among the school
teachers here for years.
At a special meeting of the members of
the School Board this evening It was an
nounced that attachment papers had been
procured for a large amount of Dougher
ty's property. The amount will reach
ISO.COO. Other attachments will be ob
tained, and his -personal 'effects-will be
taken to secure the School Board.
Locked In 3Iurdercr's Cell.
Newton C. Dougherty, but a few. days
ago president of the Peoria National
Bank, head of the National Educational
Association and trusted and respected by
thousands of prominent men throughout
the United States, is tonight a prisoner

in the mind of the Prosecuting Attorney
any doubt concerning the character of the
evidence, and there In not a chance In

the penitentiary" on an indeterminate sen--
tence for forgery.
Elghty-foUr additional true bills were
returned by the grand Jury this after
noon, imaklng the total number of indict
ments 97. and the total ball 4-53,000. Every
effort made to raise the sum of ball de
manded by the court failed, and the fallen
man came peacefully to the Jail In a
closed carriage with his counsel and sur
rendered himself to Sheriff Potter, to be
locked In the death cell that confined Otis
Botts. the wlfc-murderer, on the night of
his tragic death. Tomorrow the grand
Jury will further consider the case, and
Wednesday morning will report additional
Indictments based upon certain of the
larger counts.
Now Suspected of Murder.
In addition to latest developments In
the manipulation of school funds. Dough
erty's enemies have revived a 2-year-old.
murder case and linked his name with
the mystery. The case referred to Is the
mystery surrounding the murder of John
Porter, Janitor of the Peoria High School.
April 3. 1903. Porter was "found In the
basement of the school building at 1 A.
M. with two bullet holes near his heart.
His murderer has never been caught. It
was rumored at the time that the Jani
tor .surprised a prominent business man In
one of the school rooms in company with
a woman, and that the man had killed
him to prevent him from Involving him
self and the woman In que'stlon in a scan
dal. How much basis there is for the gossip
cannot be learned today. It is said, how
ever, that Dougherty at that time either
used his influence to hush up an' Investi
gation or that he appeared indifferent In
the matter. His attitude at that time
Is now being freely censured by persons
who kept still until Dougherty's present
difficulty.
Dead Man, Still on Payroll.
His only connection with the case that
now can be shown is the fact that the
Porter family still appears to bo on the
payrollsof the school board. State's At
torney Scholes, in going over Dougherty's
account today, discovered that as late as
last June a check had been, drawn by
Dougherty to the order of John Porter,
who has been dead more than two years.
With the shadow of the jail within
sight, Dougherty today showed the first
signs of collapse. For the first' time since
the expose. Dougherty, remained at his
home today. It Is said on good authority
that he will not confess, but will plead
not guilty and put up as a defense Insan
ity, caused by avfall from a horse sev
eral years ago.

Dougherty Talks of Shortage, Which
May Reach $750,000.
CHICAGO, Oct. 9. A special to the
Daily News from Peoria, says: "If I
have done any wrong," Dougherty said
to the News correspondent, "I. suppose
I ought to be punfshed for It."
"Do you ascribe your present prose
cution to any political Influence?" he
was asked.
"No, I do not." he answered. "It can
be ascribed to the wave of reform
which seems to be sweeping over the

Reverting 'to his dealings with the
Peoria National Bank, Dougherty de
clared that he had no personal knowl
edge of the bank's affairs. Dougherty,
it would appear, was practically a
"dummy" president. As the head of
the banking Institution, he received a
nominal salary, less than $1000 a year.
He merely attended the directors'
meetings and concurred In anything
hla fellow-officers placed before him
for approval.
"I am a teacher and not a banker."
was the way he expressed his position',
"and I left the management of the
bank In the hands of experienced men."
It may be said that the experience
as a banker of one of the other offi
cials was limited to the management
of a Jewelry, store before his connec
tion with the bank.
"I took the position of president un
der protest," declared Dougherty, "just
because there was no one else 'to take
It. I did not wantlt."
"It is saW-that SlSs.000 In securities
which you have put up to cover the
shortages in the school fund will not

Dougherty."
- "Don't call It 'shortage. No. rather say
errors that may be found In the school
funds. That Is what 1 put up the securl
tIeTor. and they will be found all' right,"
He said.
Dougherty was asked to make an ex

grand jury, involving the schooUfund
transactions.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 9. (Special.)
Earl A. Sargent, the Oregon univer
sity man and thief, must begin life
anew as a little child. He cannot ex
press the simplest sentence, though he
can think. He has been shot away
from all his paqt so far as expression
Is concerned. Now the doctors are try
ing to make anew man of him try
ing to give back the power to say
through his lips the high things or low
things his other self may feel.
The doctors will try to majce him
remember the phrases of an educated
philosopher and forget .the phrases of
an educated rascal. He is the man
who was. His past Is a nightmare; his
present fs a blank; his future is a prob
lem. Earl A. Sargent, educated at the
University of Oregon, ambitious,
young, pressed by necessity, stole a bic
cycle from a student of Stanford Uni
versity. ' Policeman McCreadle shot
him through the head. He fought on.
Tor all that, but was subdued and
taken to the hospital.
McCreadle's bullet plowed his brain.
McCreadie's bullet has cut a furrow
that keeps Sargent's thought on one
side of a field and) his words on the
other aide. The two have no ming
ling. That he can think Is certain from
the fact that he Is ever alert to escape.
That he cannot talk Is evidenced by
the mumbling gutterals that strain his
tongue when he attempts to give utter
ance to his wants.
Physicians say tp Is practically a
chjld again. He will have to learn
again . everything he once knew. He
Is In a precarious condition still, as
par of his brain has been shot away.
It" he recovers an attempt will be
made to drive out the side of his na
ture which led him Into crime.
GUT OUT THE BRUTALITY
PRESIDENT CONFERS WITH THE
ATHLETES ON FOOTBALJj
Hopes for Co-Operatlon Between
Faculty and Athletic Advisers
In Reforming Game.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9. President
Roosevelt entertained at luncheon to
day Dr. D. H. Nichols and W. T. Reld,
Of Harvard, Arthur T. Hlllebrand and
John B. Fine, of Princeton, and "Walter
Camp and Mr. Owsley, of Yale. The
six guests of the President constitute
the athletic advisers of the respective
colleges named.
The President desired to consider
with them particularly the morale of
the game of football, with a view to
eliminating much of the brutality. If
possible. A general discussion of col
lege athletics was had. but the talk
centered around the game of football.
It is hoped by the President that,
with the cooperation of the college au
thorities and the athletic advisers, tho
rules of the game may be so amended
as practically to do away with much
of the brutality which makes the game
objectionable.
