OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. D. c., Dec. 3. The Secretary of
the Treasury, in submitting to Congress
his estimates, which form the basis of
all appropriations to be made at this
session, recommends the full, amount
asked for by the Chief of Engineers for
completing the Jetty at the mouth of the
Columbia River, and for continuing work
on The Dalles-Celilo canal. This is very
fortunate and will be of great assistance
to the Oregon and Washington delega
tions when they urge liberal appropria
tions for these two important projects.

cuts the estimates of Army engineers.

ington. Dec. 3. Jonathan Bourne made his
initial appearance in the senate chamber
today. Although not yet elected by the
Oregon legislature, he has been elected
by popular vote and this fact, in the opin
ion of Senator Spooner, chairman of the
committee on rules, was sufficient to en
title Mr. Bourne to the privilege of the
floor. He went into the Senate just be
fore' noon, accompanied by Senator Ful
ton, and was cordially greeted by a num
ber of Senators whom he knew, and by
others to whom he was introduced by his
colleagues.
Mr. Bourne is the first United States
Senator elected by direct vote of the peo
ple, and his admission to the Senate
chamber establishes a precedent in that
body.
"Oh. you are a Harvard man," said
President Roosevelt this morning, as Mr.
Bourne was introduced by Secretars Ful
ton and Gearin. How the President knew
is a mystery to Bourne, for he had never
before seen the President, but this college
tie will be favorable to the new Senator
in the future.

NEW OPERA-HOUSE OPENS
Bonci Rivals Caruso in Ovation at
Grand Opera.
NEW YORK, Dec. 3. The Manhattan
Opera House, New York's newest
theater, was dedicated to grand opera
tonight. The opera was Belini's
"I Purltanl," and the audience was one
of the largest and most showy that
ever gathered at a first night in this
city.
In opening his beautiful house, Oscar
Hammcrsteln Introduced to America
several noted singers, including Ales
sandro Bonci, an Italian tenor, who
had been heralded as the equal of his
famous countryman. Caruso. Others In
the cast were Mile. Plnkert, Mile.
Sacearia, M. Venturlni, M. Ancona, M.
Arimondi and M. Mugrnoz. Bonci won
his audience with his first aria, though
he appeared a trifle nervous during his
first act. Together with Mile. Plnkert,
who sang "Elvira," and Venturlni and
Ancona, basso and baritone respective
ly, he was recalled halt a dozen times
after the first act. If the applause of
the great audience may be taken as an
indication of high success, first honors
probably would go to Mile. Pinkert,
who carried the great opportunities of
her role with both vocal and artistic
success.
Not until the last act did M. Bonci
have full opportunity to demonstrate
the wonderful possibilities of his voice.
In his scene with Mile. Plnkert in this
act, he carried the house by storm and
the audience remained long enough to
give the two singers half a dozen re
calls after the final curtain.
Mr. Hammerstcin was called before
the curtain after the second act and
made a speech. He told the audience
that he had no partners, no board of
directors, and no one to tell him what
to do. but had fulfilled" his ambition in
building such a magnificent theater
and dedicating it to grand opera.

DAD FAITH ALLEGED
Breach of Contract Charged
in Circuit Court Action.
HOLDER OF OPTION SUES
D. W. Price Contends J. F. Maybach
Backed Out of Compact to
Part With Timber Land
Holdings.
The suit of D. W. Price against J. F.
Mayback and wife to recover on an al
leged breach of contract involving the
sale of timber land, occupied the day in
Judge Gantenbeln's Court yesterday and
will tie resumed this morning.
The basis of the eult is found in an
option given by J. F. Maybach to D. W.
Price on a 311-acre tract of timber land,
the conditions being that Maybach would
sell for $9000 and that at this price the
plaintiff should receive a commission of
Wi per cent, and further that in the event
of & greater price being secured. Price as
agent should receive a compensation of
half the amount received over the $9000,
in addition to the stipulated 2& per cent
on the latter sum.
It is alleged and testimony was offered
yesterday showing that in pursuance of
the conditions of the option. Price ten
dered to the defendants a sale of the land
to the Chapman Timber Company, which
was refused. The course of the testi
mony offered by the plaintiff depended
upon the fact that the sale was not ac
ceptable because it was believed then by
the plaintiffs that more money could be
had for the land and that the option was
abrogated behind the excuse that Mrs.
Maybach refused to sign a deed when
the sale was offered.
The defense offers a suggestion of fraud
alleging that Price used the sale of their
land to further the disposal of less 'valu
able property adjoining and which was
owned by Price.
Arguments in the case will be heard
by the Jury this morning.
AFFIDAVIT BV C. E. S. WOOD
Corrects Alleged Error in Answer of
Henry E. McGinn.
C. E. S. Wood, who has figured in the
Henry E. McGinn contempt proceedings,
yesterday filed an affidavit in the Cir
cuit Court correcting an alleged error in
the answer submitted by the latter in
his defense proceedings on Saturday. The
affidavit in part says:
In the answer filed by Mr. McGinn in the
contempt proceedings occurs this statement:
"Mr. McGinn retired from the grand Jury
room, whereupon Mr. Wood, believing the
contention made by Mr. McGinn to be a
correct one, withdrew immediately there
after." "The contention referred to by McGinn is
that it wa illegal and improper that Wood,
being attorney for the private prosecutor,
Mr. Larld, should be before the grand Jury
as a deputy district attorney. I believe that
Mr. McGinn acted in Rood faith in making
-that affidavit, but he is in error. I believed
then and do now that there was no impro
priety in the attorney for the prosecuting
witness presenting to the grand jury that
witness' case, which was practically the
same case that the state was bound to
present.
The facts are that when I appeared be
fore the District Attorney. Mr. Manning,
with Mr. J-add and laid before him the
libel referred to, Mr. Manning suggested it
would be better to have a grand jury art,
and said he would expect me to assist him,
and he would make me bis deputy, which
he did.
When Mr. McGinn made his protest before
the grand jury I stated that no matter how
irregularly that protest was made, I would
not remain and proceed further In the mat
ter until the question had been settled by
the court, ,and it was for that reason and
awaiting such a decision that I retired.
That afternoon, Mr. Manning came to me
and said the court had ruled that I had a
right to be before the grand Jury, and lie
expected me to abide by my promise that
1 would assist him. I replied that I would
do so. and would be on hand next morning.
I was present next morning, ready to as
sist him In laying the case before the grand
jury, when Mr. Manning suggested that on
further reflection he had concluded that I
had better not return to the grand Jury
room.
After Viat I had nothing to do with the
matter until Mr. Manning brought me an
affidavit and asked if I would sign it, which
I did after making a correction In It, and
since then I have known nothing about the
matter."
SUES FOR $1000 DAMAGES

DOING IT ANYHOW
How a Prominent Portland Visitor Found ,
. a Surprise.
'Tou don't mean to say that you can
sell pianos with everything looking
lepsy-turvy and all this work of re-buliding-
and remodeling going on?''
said a caller at Eilers Piano House
yesterday. We had to aJmit that
things were in a rathervchaotic state,
to all appearances, at least, and that
occasionally a salesman or a customer
might be annoyed by the noise and
confusion incident to the work of
practically lnstalHng a five-floor
building in one originally Intended
for but two.
But to show him that even under
these circumstances pianos ran be sold
we showed him our sale report for
yesterday and for Saturday, which of
ccurse astonished him. "Nothing as
tonishing about it," we said. "The
only wonder is that we haven't sold
out n?arly all of these fine pianos at
the emergency sale prices, represent
ing a reduction of from $100 to $12S,
yes, in some cases as much as $-0 1
from the price at which tiiese instru-
ments are usually sold by retail deal
ers When we are 'offering here to take
J164 each for choice of four largest
size fancy cased Ludwig upright pi
anos, which, to all appearances look
as though they had never been used
at all. , and are willing to take $-'
or even $14 cash, and the balance at
$7 or ti a month, it seems to us they
ought to be taken up quickly. Here
is a Krcll piano that is new. It is a
mahogany case. Some dealers ask
$32i for it. We'll take J1SS cash or
J! a month for it. A splendid Jacob
Doll piano, good and serviceable, for
$196, for which other dealers have
asked as much as $350, yes, even $37;.
A suberb little oak-cased Kimball up
right, not yet seven years old. goes
now for $22t, and another fancy ma
hogany Kimball very nearly new can
be secured for $2811. A very good ma
hogany caso Steinway upright Is now
$'-'S6, and $S less takes a splendid medium-sized
mahogany case Knube.
Remember these last named pianos
are not brand new, but we doubt If
even an expert could tell them from a
new one. There are quite a. number of
ethers: Fischers, Mathushek, Mehlin.
Decker, Hallett & Davis, aad other
brands, all at corresponding reduc
tions. But the Sale Report
Here is the report of Satin-day's and
Monday's piano selling. We have sold
mo;-e than these at various times, dur
ing the past three years, in a single
day, but we doubt if anywhere in t'ii
l uitcd States so many pianos ever
were sold under circumstances, twice
or three times more favorable, in so
fir as displuy'and chance to show the
instruments Is concerned. We are still
really very much disarranged, hut that,
is the reason why prices have been
made so low, and that is the reason
why discriminating purchasers secure
pianos now rather than waiting until
everything Is again in apple pie order.

Tho above are sales at Eilers Piano

Could any better or more definite proof
of the genuineness of our offers be ad
duced? We think not. We are anx
