EXTEND
PORTAGE
TO THE DULLES
Open River Association De
cides to Facilitate Upper
M River Shipping.
LARGE BUSINESS EXPECTED
loner Kiver Iiines Agree to Handle
Wheat Crop at This End, and
Building New Section of
u Koad Will Save Time.
At the meeting of the Open River As
sociation held in the offices of J. N.
Teal yesterday, it was decided to build
the portage-road to The Dalles, and the
undertaking is expected to be accom
plished In the near future. The proposal
to extend the road three miles came
in for considerable discussion on the
part of the members of the association,
during which It was effectively shown
that the road extension would materially
assist the shipping . Industry of the up
jier river, and was unanimously decided
upon.
The portage-road now extends from a
point three miles above The Dalles to
Celilo. The bringing of the road three
miles farther west will enable the ship
pers to handle the grain this side of
elilo without the necessity of sending
the steamboats beyond The Dalles. This
will shorten the route, as it will save
the time consumed by the lower river
steamers now taken up in the trip to the
present end of the road.
J. T. Peters, of The Dalles, has been
appointed to arrange for a survey of
the route for the proposed extension,
and committees will be selected to ar
range for the right-of-way and the pro
vision of funds to put through the ex
tension. Those Who Attended.
Those present at the meeting were:
Dr. N". G. Blalock, of Walla Walla;
J. T. Peters, of The Dalles; W. J. Mar
rimer, of Blalock; V. A. Seufert. of The
Dalles; Henry Hahn, A. H. Devers. F. J.
Kmltli and J. N. Teal, of Portland.
The Open River Transportation Com
pany, backed by the association.
Is striving to make the upper river coun
try the liveliest section of the North
west in the next few months, for they
expect to handle a large portion of the
season's grain crop by the water route.
In order to do this they have built
several new steamers and made arrange
fents with the local transportation com
panies to have the crop handled at this
end of the line, and have secured the
guarantee of one firm that its vessels
will be available for the traffic expected
this Fall.
Captain Frank J. Smith, superintend
ent of transportation of the Open River
Company, will leave for the upper river
tomorrow evening to look after some
details preliminary to the opening of the
grain-shipping season, and will also
probably attend the launching of the
new steamer Relief, which is building
at Blalock, and Is to be launched shortly
after the first of the month.
Captain Thomas Shepherd, formerly of
the O. R. & N river steamers, leaves
tonight to assume the duties of first
officer on the new craft, and he will be
accompanied by Thomas Copp, who is to
have the berth of watchman on the Re
lief. AVILLi REPAIR TRAMP STEAMER
ornian Isles at Martin's Dock Will
Have Plates Straightened.
The Norwegian tramp steamship Nor
man Isles, which arrived In the local
harbor late Wednesday evening, was
berthed at Martin's dock . yesterday moro
ingp and while at this dock will under
go some minor repairs which have been
found necessary owing to the battering
the big vessel received during her voy
age around the Horn. She had several
plates sprung on the trip and other de
fects have been brought to the atten
tion o the ship's carpenter. This work
will be completed as soon as possible,
for although the steamer has 15 lay days
in this port, it is the desire of Captain
C. H. Sanne to commence loading within
a few days.
The Norman Isles is a familiar sight in
the local harbor, for she has taken sev
eral cargoes of lumber from here pre
vious to her present visit. She is a
large carrier and will take more than
3.500.0M feet of lumber on this trip. It
is being sent to Northern China by the
Pacific Export Lumber Company, and
will be loaded at the Inman, Poulson
Will.
AZTEC OX THE WAY" HERE
. w San Kranclsco Liner- Starts for
Portland on First Trip.
The steamship Aztec, the new vessel
added to the liners of the San Francisco
& Portland Steamship Company, left
the . Bay City for Portland yesterday,
and should reach the local harbor . to
morrow evening or Sunday. The steamer
Is bringing considerable freight from the
Southern port, and on her return voy
age will take one of the largest cargoes
ever shipped from here to a coastwise
port. She will take about 6000 tons of
general freight, consisting of almost ev
ery line of goods in demand in the Bay
City. She is scheduled to sail on her
first trip out of here on September 8.
The vessel was here once before, when
she took a cargo of grain and flour to
the Orient.
The steamer Costa Hica will com
mence loading for the return trip today
and will have a full cargo of 1200 tons of
general merchandise.
TWO VESSELS DEPART.
I A. Kilburn and Roanoke Off for
i , Coastwise Ports.
Laden to the hatches with all the
freight' they could handle, the steamers
Roanoke and F. A. Kilburn left on their
regular voyages last evening. Both ves
sels had their cabin accommodations
filled, the former taking about 180 and
the latter S4 passengers for the coast
wise ports. I
When the Kilburn reaches San Fran
cisco she will be placed on the drydock
for the purpose of having her hull
scraped and painted, and on this account
may be one day late on her next voyage
up the coast. Captain Merrlam expects
to make the delay up during the time
the vessel is en route, but this depends
on the state of the weather and the
tides encountered at Coos Bay.
TIIYR.V COMPLETES HER CARGO
Norwegian Steamship Will Leave
Today With Lumber Shipment.
The Norwegian steamship Thyra,
which has been loading at the Portland
Mills during the past few weeks, com
pleted her cargo yesterday and will leave
the harbor today. She is taking a cargo
of 3.000.000 feet of lumber for China and
Vladivostok. Part . of this cargo . was
loaded at Vancouver, Wash., and she
was the first large tramp steamship that
ever visited the city across the Columbia
River. Her visit there was made possi
ble by the enterprise of the citizens of
that city, who secured a deep channel
from the mouth of the Willamette
through their own efforts and private
subscriptions.
The departure of the Thyra leaves only
two large lumber carriers In the harbor,
the British steamship Vermont, loading
at the Kastern & Western Mlllj and the
Norwegian steamship Norman Isles, at
present at Martin's dock undergoing re
pairs. The large British tramp steamship
Knight of St. George Is loading wheat
for Kerr, Gifford & Co.; and is as large
a vessel as either of the lumber steamers.
Masters Up for Investigation.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Aug. 30. (Special.)
Two masters of American vessels have
failed to pay off their crews before Unit
ed States Shipping Commissioner Knox,
and both are under investigation by the
District Attorney. The men on the
schooner Alice McDonald were paid off
at Ballard by Captain Joseph Bender and
Captain Peter Nelson, of the cod-fishing
schooner Harold Blekum. paid of his
crew here without notifying the Com
missioner. Crusader Coming for Lumber.
Another large lumber carrier has been
added to the list of tramp- steamships
which will come to this port in the
next few months. The new addition is
the British steamship Crusader, which
was last reported at Sourabaya, Java,
and which is expected to arrive here to
load lumber for the Pacific Export Lum
ber Company in December. She is a
large vessel and will take about 3,500,000
feet on the outward voyage.
Marine Notes.
Trie British ship Broderick Castle is en
route from Newcastle with a cargo of coal
consigned to the Pacific Coast Company.
She is a vessel of 1770 tons, and will prob
ably receive a charter to carry grain on
the outward voyage.
Inspector Fuller and Assistant Inspector
Welden visited the drydock yesterday and
inspected portions of the steamship Geo.
W. Elder, which was done at the request
of the owners, as they desire to get the
craft off the dock next week.
Considerable difficulty is being expe
rienced by the operators of river steamers
in getting crews for their vessels, for most
of the old hands are deserting to go to
the hopflelds for the season. The men
claim they can make more in the harvest
field than as deckhands.

TELLS CONFUSING STORIES
FRITZ REPORTS ROBBERY AND
THEN DENIES IT.
According to Original Account, a
Charming Young Woman Re
lieved Him of $9400.
Anton Fritz, brother of Fred Fritx,
proprietor of a Burnslde-street concert
hall, has given out a statement that he
was not robbed of 400 in currency Tues
day night by a young woman. But the
fact remains that Frit reported the al
leged theft to the police yesterday morn-'
ing and that the detectives have been
searching the city for the woman who is
said to have made the theft
Fritz communicated with the police yes
terday and told them a rambling tale of
how he had either been robbed or had lost
J9400 in currency. He stated that the rob
bery had evidently been committed Tues
day night. The robbery, if there be any,
is fraught with mystery, and Fritz is only
able to tell a much-broken story of how
his wealth took wings.
"I deny the whole story. I was not
robbed of any money."
This was the statement Fritz made last
night. He had little to say except that
he wanted the story that he had been
robbed of $9400 denied.
According to the first story of Fritz, be
was robbed Tuesday night, near Twelfth
and Morrison streets, under very peculiar
circumstances. He met a young woman
who appeared to be in trouble and offered
to aid her. She explained that she was
in need of financial assistance. He gave
her several dollars, and she was so pro
fuse in her thanks that she threw her
arms about him and wept her gratitude.
But Fritz said she evidently needed more
than a few dollars, and afterwards when
he missed his roll he was not surprised
that Bhe had wept from Joy.
The money consisted of nine $1000 bills
and smaller currency to the amount of
$400 pinned in his inside coat pocket.
Detective Hellyer was assigned on the
case, but he has been unable to accom
plish results. The police are Inclined to
doubt the story. Fritz, who is a butcher
by occupation, came to Portland recently
from the East.

SURPLUS OP LIS
Parker Holds Legislatures Pro
duce Too Many.
SHOULD ENFORCE OLD ONES
Ex-Candidate Complains of Overpro
duction of Inferior Article at
Law Factories and Gives
Roosevelt a Dig.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 30. The feature of to
day's session of the American Bar Asso
ciation was the annual -address of Judge
Alton B. Parker on "The Congestion
of Law." He contended that there was
a. vast amount Of over-leglslatlon ; much
'of it dealt with subjects adequately cov
ered by existing law. Congress and the
Legislatures annually turn out an aver
age of 15,000 laws. The adoption of new
codes of law in each new state resulted
in a great mass of crude legislation.
New legislation especially restricted the
right of contract, treating Increasing
numbers as weaklings. Special legisla
tion was caused by agitation which grew
into hysterics. Neglect to enforce ex
isting law produced a. demand for further
legislation. He continued:
This has been demonstrated within the
past year, when. In the midst of tne most
hysterical demands for new laws aiming at
certain offenses, successful resort has been
had on a large scale to existing; laws. The
continuance of such efforts will demonstrate
the adequacy of the laws when rigidly en
forced, to put an end to the practices which
they were intended to prevent, and at the
same time demonstrate anew the wisdom of
enacting only such laws as can be enforced,
and then to secure their enforcement.
Abuses in Legislation.
There were unnecessary laws instigated
by an executive with the elements in
him of the agitator, and often of the
demagogue. His efforts to enforce law
failing, he procures a new harvest of
laws. There was legislation also for the
benefit of a party in many ways, which
he enumerated. The causes which pro
moted such laws gave Speakers arbi
trary power, made committees into
tyrants and produced bosses, log-rolling,
etc., and sectional conflicts.
These abuses added to the work of the
Judiciary, throwing upon it the work of
deciding on the constitutionality of new
laws. In 20 years the constitutionality
of over 500 statutes had been challenged
in contests. The continued resort to
blue laws illustrated the perils of inert
laws.
Executive officers invaded the functions
of legislative bodies. On this point Judge
Parker said, evidently alluding to the
President and Congress:
Aggression of Executives.
An executive officer may not only recom
mend, but is expected to urge. and. if neces
sary. In order to carry his point, to use the
great power of his office to compel, the en
actment of laws. He may call in the presid
ing officer and leading members of the
legislative department of the government of
which he 1b the executive, and demand of
them such legislation as he deems wise, and
will be considered Justified If he distributes
or withholds his patronage for the avowed
purpose of inducing or forcing legislation, if
at the time there is a public sentiment in
favor of such legislation.
When we shall learn that legislative bodies
must be made up of mediocrities so long as
quantity and not quality of laws is regarded
as the essential requisite; when some of the
temptation to legislate shall be removed by
less frequent meetings of such bodies; when
trajned official draftsmen shall be employed
to give the necessary laws legal and literary
form; when executives are forbidden, rather
than encouraged, by public sentiment to in
terfere with the orderly course of law-making
when these simple steps are taken it
will be permissible to look forward with hope
to the times when hysteria, blackmail,
partisanship, personal ambitions and selfish
Interests will not add ten new laws to the
statute books when only one is needed.
He proposed the adoption of the Brit
ish system of employing a salaried
draftsman, a lawyer of high repute, well
paid, to study the phraseology, of pro
posed laws and make a thorough exam
ination of existing legislation. The Ini
tiative should come frdm the lawyers
and the Bar Association should take up
the sbbject.
Reports of Committees.
The rest of the session was devoted to
hearing committee reports. In the after
noon the delegates were entertained at
luncheon by the Town and Country Club.
In the report of the committee on
Jurisprudence and law reform, the ques
tion, "Shall this association recommend
to Congress that a law be passed making
an indictment conclusive evidence of the
facts therein alleged?" was adversely
passed upon. The report of the commit
tee was adopted.
The committee on legal education rec
ommended many changes in the method
of granting degrees at school, both in
America and Europe. The committee
also recommended the creation of state
boards of law examiners in ever state.
The report of the committee on com
mercial law, which was approved, recom
mends that the committee for next year
be instructed to oppose any effort to re
peal the present bankruptcy law.
The report of the committee on in
ternational law recommended that the
United States Government instruct Its
delegates to The Hague Conference to
urge the adoption of recommendations of
the Inter-Parliamentary Union,
General George B. Davis, Judge Advocate-General
of the United States Army,
had prepared a paper on "Some Recent
Progress in International Law," which,
in the absence of General Davis, was
read by the chairman of the commit
tee on international law.
Parker for President.
Sentiment tonight points to the election
of Judge Alton B. Parker as president
of the American Bar Association. The
election will take place tomorrow.
MAY ENLARGE THE LOCKS
Stevens Now Figuring on Cement
Supply for Canal.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30. Locks for
the Panama Canal probably will be built
according to the dimensions recommend
ed by the majority of the consulting
board of engineers, which favored . the
construction of a sea-level waterway in
stead of the smaller type planned by
the minority of the board. Under this
change of programme, the locks would
be 100 feet wide. The plans adopted by
Congress provide for locks 95 feet wide,
with usuable lengths of 500 feet.
With this exception it ' is said the
minority plans will be followed. If
a change is made In the size of the
locks the Isthmian Canal Commission
takes the position tiiat it will be acting
within the discretion authorized by Con
gress. As ships are now being built
which would test the capacity of the 900
foot locks. Chief Engineer Stevens is of
the opinion that It would be wise to In
crease the dimensions.
Chief Engineer Stevens is computing
the additional amount of cement which
will have to be purchased for the
changed plans. He said that to assemble
the amount of cement needed would re
quire 125 carloads a clay for two years,
or 91,250 carloads. The climate of Pan
ama Is such that cement cannot be kept
In good condition for more than three or
four months, and the problem of ship
ping is of no little concern to the com
mission. As the facilities for shipping
rrom England to the isthmus axe bet
ter than from the United States and as
the foreign price frequently has been
found to be below the domestic price, it
is not unlikely that the greater part of
the contract will be given to foreign
dealers.
It will he about two years before the
work of constructing the locks will be
begun. The Association of Manufactur
ers of cement in the United States has
shown considerable activity in getting
better shipping facilities, and may there
fore be prepared to compete with for
eign cement. .

BOASTING LEADS TO CRIME
i
Longshoreman and Fireman Stabbed
by Friend as They Leave Room.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30. During
an altercation over a trivial matter at
the home of A. Lombard, 15 Silver
street tonight, Joe Gomez stabbed
Luigi Uturre to death and seriously
wounded Andrew Rocco. Gomez and
Rocco are marine firemen and roomed
in Lombard's house. Uturre, a long
shoreman and friend of the two fire

cording to Rocco they began to dispute
as to which of the trio was receiving;
the most wages and became so noisy in
their argument that Lombard ordered
them out of the house.

and as he did so, was stabbed and in
stantly killed by Gomez, who then
turned and plunged his knife into
RoccJo, his roommate, and made his
escape. Rocco will recover.

AMERICAN FIX3 RELIEF
The Cast) of Miss Irene Crosby Is One
of Thousands of Cures made by Lydla
EL. Pintham'a Vegetable Compound.
How, many women realize that
His not the plan of nature that women
should suffer so severely.
Thousands of American women, how
ever, have found relief from all monthly
suffering by taking; Lycfla E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, as it is the most
thorough female regulator known to
medical science. It cures the condition
which causes so much discomfort and
robs these periods of their terrors.
Miss Irene Crosby, of 313 Charlton
Street, East Savanneh, Ga., writes:
' Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
is a true friend to woman. It has been of
great benefit to me, curing me of irregular
and painful periods when everything else had
failed, and I gladly recommend it to other
suffering women."
Women who are troubled with pain
ful of irregular periods, backache,
bloating' (or flatulence), displacement
of organs, inflammation or ulceration,
that ' bearing-down " feeling, dizzi
ness, faintness, indigestion-, nervous
prostration or the blues, should take
immediate action to ward off the seri
ous consequences, and be restored to
perfect health and strength by taking
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and then write to Mrs. Pink
ham, Lynn, Mass., for further free ad
vice. She is daughter-in-law of Lydia
E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years
has been advising women free of
charge. Thousands have been cured
