VTEXXA. March 19. According to a
telegram received hero from Czernowits,
an Austrian town close to the boundary
of Moldavia, Roumania, advices have
been received there from the Austrian
frontier police stationed at Itzkani and
Suozzawa, that the anti-Jewish outbreak
in Roumania is assuming serious propor
tions. Peasants have attacked and plun
dered Jew.s at Burduzhene. who wfire
fleeing over the frontier to Itzkani. About
2000 -fugitives, mostly women and chil
dren, already have crossed the frontier.
Other reports declare that further pcH
ous disturbances have occurred at Boto
sahnla, where the peasants have set tire
to the houses of the Jews, and as a result
almost the entire town is in flames.
The British Alliance of Vienna is pre
paring to take care of the Roumanian
fugitives.
The towns of Itzkani and Suczzawa, in.
Austria, are about three miles apart and
each is within one mile of the Rou
manian frontier. Burduzhene is about
two .miles within the Roumanian i fron
tier and about three miles from both Itz

Weary of Oppression, Mob Takes
Revenue on Jews.
BUCHAREST, March 19. The Agra
rian movement in North Moldavia,
where the peasants are in revolt
against the exactions and tyranny of
the farmers and the new taxes re
cently "voted by Parliament, is rapidly
spreading. The town of Botosahnia
was raided yesterday by 2000 peasants,
who plundered the Jewish quarters
and maltreated the keepers. Troops
have been sent there and to other dis
turbed points.
Further reports from Botosahnia say
that during the rioting there March 17
four peasants were killed and two sol
diers mortally wounded.
Both houses of Parliament today
passed an urgent bill authorizing the
government to call the army reserves
to the colors for a fortnight or longer
if necessary.
It Is reported that many thousands of
peasants are preparing to enter Jassy.
The Prefect of that district telegraphed
to the government asking that a large
number of troops be sent there.
Students here are agitating the same
questions as the peasants. The Jewish
population is in fear of excesses.
The following official version of the
riots has been given out:
In consequence of the agitation going
.on in Bessarabia and neighboring dis
tricts of Upper Moldavia, several hundred
peasants from the Botosahnia district
raided a number of houses and shops in
the town, including the premises of some
large Jewish firms. The military sent
against the rioters were fired upon with
revolvers and stoned and finally were
compelled to use their weapons. They
fired, and left four men killed and nine
wounded.
DOES XOT CAKE ABOUT JEWS
Roumanian Prefect's Brutal Reply
to Premier's Rebuke.
VIENNA. March 19. Telegrams re
ceived here from Bucharest declare that
the Prime. Minister, George Cantacuzene,
demanded of the Prefect of Kazsou, in
the Botosahnia district, why he did not
maintain order in his district. The Pre
fect replied, according to these reports,
tfiat no Roumanians were in danger,
while as for the Jews he would not give
one Christian for a million Jews.
When the Prefect was informed by the
Premier that he was unfit for his post,
lie answered that he would not resign,
"but that he was ready to be dismii-'iied.
Barort von Aehrenthall, the Minister of
Poreign Affairs, has addressed an urgent
appeal to the Austrian people on the
Roumanian frontier to afford shelter and
protection to'all Jews driven out of Rou
mania, and as a result the refugees are
being kindly received in Roumanian ter
ritory. 8TRIKE BLOCKADES HAMBURG

E. B. SMITHFOUND DEAL
Officers Arrest George Havey for
Crime.
KELSO. 'Wash.. March 19. (Special.)
The body of E. B. Smith was found
lying on Northern Pacific track by the
crew of a work train about two miles
from Olequa Saturday afternoon under
conditions which plainly indicate murder.
A man giving his name as Andrew Havey
has been arrested for the crime.
Coroner Bell was summoned and at an
inquest, held at Castle Rock, the
Jury brought In a verdict declar-
ing that Smith came to hiB death at the.
hands of a party or parties unknown.
It is known that the murdered man, in
company with a man giving his name as
Andrew Havey,- had been drinking all
day in sight of both the railroad
section gang and the workmen in a
rock quarry near by. Shortly after
noon they passed down the track out of
sight in the direction of Castle Rock.
Nothing more was seen of them until
about 4 o'clock when Havey returned
toward Olequa walking rapidly and wear
ing clothes much better than he had
previously had on aYid which are thought
to have been Smith's.
Havey went direct to the Olequa hotel
where he was arrested by Deputy Sheriff
Patterson on suspicion. Patterson took
his prisoner to Kalama and turned him
over to Sheriff Kirby.
The murdered man was born in- Wash
ington County, Oregon, about 30 miles
from Portland in 1ST1. He was a grand
son of William Meeker, one of -the old
pioneers of that section, and a nephew
of ex-Sheriff William Meeker, of Colum
bia County, Oregon.

years ago, the parishioners refused to

old adobe house, which the earthquake
has kindly spared.
Oldest in New York City.
New York's oldest church building
is St. Paul's, dating back to 1764-6,
while Trinity is the oldest and richest
organization. The land owned by Trin
ity was part of the old West India
Company's -farm before the English
came to take possession of the island.
It then became the "King's farm," and
he granted it to the church. Much
of the land has been given away for
charitable purposes, but the church has
still enough left to yield an income of
$500,000 a year. The 'money is used
to maintain the church. Its six chapels
and its many missions and charities.
The graveyard Is said to be worth as
much money as gold dollars placed side
by side and stood up edgewise would
cover. It can never be sold, and the
dead there in reach, of busy "Wall
street can lie forever undisturbed.
Alexander Hamilton was buried there
after his fatal meeting with Burr, and
his wife was laid by Ills side 50 years
later. A monument to the memory of
the patriot soldiers who died on the
prison ships during the Revolution is
in this churchyard.
New Orleans' Miracle Chapel.
New Orleans has a miracle chapel,
where the visitor may see stacks of
crutches that were made useless by
the intercession' of the saint. The chap
el was built by a priest with his own
hands in fulfillment of a vow that, if
the great scourge of cholera were di
verted from his flock, he would build
a chapel in honor of his patron saint,
the good Saint Roque. The city was al
most devastated, but the plague
touched not one member of this flock,
and the thankful father erected the
quaint edifice stone by stone. It still
stand3 as a lasting monument to his
faith. It Is in this chapel that young
girls pray to the saint for husbands,
and where the little amulets contain
ing St. Joseph's are blessed for the
same happy purpose. One of the old
est churches in Louisiana is St. Mar
tin s Church, on . isayou xec.ne. it. was
a refuge for the exiled Acadians, whom
the Knglish drove from Canadian
shores, and ' tradition declares that
Evangeline lies under an oak in the old
burying-ground.
President's Church, Washington.
St. John's, in Washington. D. C, is
in some respects the most famous
church in America. Once when a young
man applied to President Lincoln for a
position in the Government service and
presented a handful of letters of rec
ommendation, Lincoln said:
"You had better keep these. They
might now mind you, I don't say will,
but they might gain you a member
ship at St. John's."
Thus early had this most aristocratic
of all America's churches earned its
name for excluslveness. It was built
in 1S16 and. though it has since been
remodeled, it still seats only 700. Be
fore the church was consecrated a
committee waited on President Madison
and stated that pew No. 28 had been
set aside for his use.
Ever since then it has been known as
the "President's pew," and St. John's
has been known as the "President's
church." Although all the Chief Ex
ecutives since its building have not been
members of that faith, most of them have
attended it as some time or other. Me
morial windows have been placed there
to Presidents Madison, Monroe, Van
Buren William Henry Harrison, John
Tyler 'and Zachery Taylor, "who wor
shipped in this church while In office."
One of the most notable gathering;, ever
held here was in 1897 at the time of the
World's Postal Congress, when the fu
neral services were held over the young
delegate from Hawaii who had died dur
ing the convention. The congregation
was made up of people of almost every
nationality and race under tne sun.
Benjamin Latrobe, the architect of the
Capitol, designed the church and it has
eathered under its roof more representa
tive people than any other house of wor
ship In America.
The : bells of old . St. Michael's in
Charleston. S. C, have had a widely
traveled life and a checkered career. It
is said this church was designed by
Gibbs, architect of St. Martin-in-the-lields,
London. When it was finished
February 1. 1761. the clock in the tower
and the bells in the tall steeple had been
In ought at great expense from England.
In 173 Major Fraillc, a British officer,
took the bells away and, despite the
pleadings of the Charleston people, the
English government would not restore
them. However, they were sold in Eng
land and bought by a man who returned
them to St. Michael's. When the Civil
War broke out, the vestry had the bells
taken from their seaport home and car
ried inland to Columbia for safety, la
doing this they had not reckoned on Sher
man, and when he burned Columbia the
hells were rendered useless, and two of
them were stolen. In 1866 the remaining
ones were sent again to England to e
recast by the successors of the firm th;;t
had made them, and in 1S68 they wore
rehung.
An old story of St Michael's tells of
negro slave who once saved the sacred
structure from burning. "A building was
on -fire nearby there was no flrefighting
paraphernalia that could throw water any
distance and when a brand was blown
high on the steeple of St. Michael's the
people were in distress for they knew
it meant the destruction oi tneir beloved
church. Then a negro slave sprang from
a cabin nearby made his way through
the crowd climbed the steeple and threw
the brand far out In the street. He
managed to reach the ground in safety,
and his master set htm free for his brave
act.

the railways must cultivate the good
will and co-operation of the people
by the adoption and promulgation of
economically and commercially sound
principles in the conduct of their busi
ness. He said:
Facilities Befpre Low Kates.
IE the railways are to secure the large
amounts of new capital required to enable
them to meet the rapidly increasing demands
for their services, their credit must be -such
as to assure 'Investors of a reasonable return
upon their money. The -South now ha new
rates that enable Southern producers to mar
ket their products on such terms that they
can compete successfully with similar prod
ucts from other localities, but it has not the
means of moving the products to market as
promptly as is desirable. Every shipper wants
lower rates, but when rates are so low as to
enable him to reach competitors, prompt and
efficient service becomes of more Importance
than rate reduction. The Imperative need of
the South today la improved transportation
service. I am sure that the business men of
this section will agree with me that improved
facilities are more urgently needed than any
reduction in charges.
Contract With Water Carriers.
While approving: the policy of- im
proving: rivers and harbors at public
expense, Mr. Finley contrasted the atti
tude of the public toward carriers by
water and by rail, pointing out that
the former pays nothing: for his high
way; that it is maintained and im
proved at public expense, while the
carrier by rail must construct his own
highway, pay heavy taxes and is sub
jected to increasing Governmental su
pervision and , regulation. He urged a
popular understanding of the fact that
rail transportation is more important
than water transportation, expressing
the belief that when the inter-dependence
of the railways and the people is
understood the people will be as reluc
tant to place obstacles in the way as
they would be to oppose the improve
ment of waterways.
Banger in Demurrage Laws.
Expressing the belief that "there is
danger that legislation intended -to
regulate railways may prove to be an
obstacle to their extension and devel
opment, and may tend to make worse,
instead of better, the conditions sought
to be remedied," Mr. Finley cited as
an illustration the legislation propos
ing to impose penalties for failure to
supply cars or to perform other serv
ices, without regard to whether such
failure is the result of willful negli
gence. He declared the demand for
cars is beyond the capacity of the rail
ways and the car-builders to supply,
and that the Imposition of car-service
penalties would compel discrimination
in favor of shipments wholly within
the borders of the state imposing the
penalty. He continued:
It must be apparent that the inevitable
results of this will be to bring about a
competition of greed and rivalry between
the states to see which can Impose tha
heaviest penalty and secure the largest
number of cars and the most prompt serv
ice, and ;hat every penalty imposed, for
failure to do the Impossible must reduce
the ability of the road to Be cure more cars
and other needed betterments. It must
also be apparent that such a policy is in
direct violation of the common-law rule
forbidding discrimination, which- has been
Incorporated in the Federal and state stat
utes. It compels discrimination in favor

imposing the heaviest penalties against
other states and against Interstate traffic
After referring to the radical difference
between the obligation on the shipper to
pay demurrage charges when he with
holds from its proper use property which
does not belong to him and the proposi
tion to penalize a railroad for failure to
perform services beyond its ability, Mr.
Finley said:
Essentials to Getting Capital.
In this matter and others which it la
proposed to regulate by legislation. It is
for the best interest of all concerned that
the relations between, the railway and those
. mt, . f
buying transportation from It should con
form to the well-established business rules
that govern commercial transactions of all
kinds. A railway corporation differs from
other corporations generally in that it re
quites a larger amount of capital for the
construction and operation of its plan than
Is needed in most other lines of business.'
Its capital can only be secured if those seek
ing investments can be reasonably sure of
a fair return and its business can only be
conducted successfully and its facilities ex
panded if its income can be kept up to
the point necessary to sustain its credit and
enable it to secure new capital when re
quired for these purposes.
The transportation problem c.tnnot be
solved in prejudice or passion or in any
misunderstanding of the conditions that sur
round It. Its just solution callH for moder
ation and justice on the part of the people
and a full understanding and co-operation
between our state and National Governments
and the railroads. In such an effort to work
out eurcessfully the problem, which Is the
great business and Governmental problem
of the times and which can only be solved
on principles of construction and not de
struction, and in full recognition of the
high and Just purposes on both sides, may
pod speed the railroads and the people of
the great State of Ucorgia.

It has become popular to discredit the

NOT DEAD.SLEEPING
Ship Subsidy Bill to Be Re
vived Next Session.
HAS ROCKY ROAD AHEAD
Republicans Have Reduced Majority
and There Is Division on Form
of Subsidy Pacific Coast
Will Make Demands.
OREGON! AX NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, March 19. The ship subsidy bill is
not dead, but sleeping. When Congress
reassembles in December, the bill will be
reintroduced: in fact it will probably be
reintroduced in various shapes, and then
the friends of subsidy will join hands and
attempt to pass some compromise bill.
The probabilities are that they will unite
on a bill more drastic and more extensive
than that which passed the House of
Representatives a few days before the ad
journment of the recent session.
Whether a subsidy bill will pass the
next Congress Is another matter. The
friends of such legislation believe it will.
They are encouraged by the fact that
they have at last pushed some kind of a
subsidy bill through the House of Repre
sentatives. Heretofore the House has
been the stunvbling block: this time the
subsidy bill passed the House and died
in the Senate. From this it might be
argued that the House, having passed one
bill, will pass another, but an examina
tion into the situation does not necessa
rily lead to that conclusion.
Reduced Majority to Draw On.
In the House which expired on March 4
the Republicans had a majority of 113,
not counting seven vacancies. In the
next House the Republicans will have a
majority of only 58. When it is recalled
that the subsidy bill in Its mutilated form
only passed the House by a majority of
five, it is decidedly doubtful if it can
pass in any shape in the next Congress.
Tho Democrats will vote solidly against
it, and It is very much to be questioned
whether there will be enough Republicans
to put the bill through. The men from
the middle West are not in favor of sub
sidy legislation, not even a pure mail
subsidy for South American lines, and
there is no reason to believe that these
men will change their attitude within the
next year.
It is a well recognized fact that the
ship subsidy bill was put through the
House of Representatives last session
only because of the pressure brought to
bear by the President in support of the
so-called Llttauer bill the bill granting
mail subsidies only to lines running be
tween the United States and South Amer
ica. The President, by personal appeals,
brought a number of Western Rrepresen
tatives into line and In that way secured
votes enough to get the bill through the
House after a very hard fight. The Presi
dent can, unquestionably, bring into line
these same Republicans when the House
next takes a vote on the subsidy bill,
but It remains to be seen whether he can
influence a sufficient number of Republi
cans to make sure of its passage. He
will have to get at least 30 recruits before
the bill will be safe.
The United States Senate is in favor of
a liberal ship subsidy bill. One of its
strongest opponents. John C. Spooner,
of Wisconsin, is now out of public life,
and his retirement strengthens the cause
of the advocates of a cargo subsidy bill.
The Senate may therefore be expected to
again pass a bill drawn on the general
lines of the original Payne-Hanna bill
that met defeat some years ago..
Where Subsidy Forces Spilt.
' In the next Congress, as in the past,
the real fight will occur In the House of
Representatives. The House has time
and again refused to stand for a cargo
subsidy bill and.' if a House with a
Republican majority of 113 would not pass
a liberal bill, it is to be seriously ques
tioned whether a House with onlv 58
Troubles
Republican majority will go on record
as favoring subsidy for all manner of
steamship lines. The probabilities are
that the House committee on merchant
marine will amend the liberal Senate bill
and bring out a measure very similar to
that which recently passed the House
granting mail subsidies only to steam
ship lines plying between the United
States and South America. The com
mittee, however, will probably insert pro
vision for a subsidy to lines running be
tween the Pacific Coast and the
Orient and for a line between the
Pacific Coast and Australia. Pro
vision for such lines was stricken out
of the late bill by the House, but it may
be set down for a fact that Senators
from the Pacific Coast states will never
consent to the passage of a subsidy bill
that does not recognize the shipping in
terests of the West Coast. Had not the
Carmack filibuster killed the recent bill.
Pacific Coast Senators would have In
sisted upon an amendment taknig care
of the lines from San Francisco and
Puget Sound, and their very insistence
would probably have led to a disagree
ment with the House that would have
been as fatal as the filibuster.
All in all, the outlook for ship subsidy
legislation in the 60th Congress is not
especially bright. It all depends, ap
parently, on the President. If he can get
the necessary Republican votes in the
House, some sort of a subsidy bill will
go through, but, if the Congressmen from
the Middle West refuse to yield to pres
sure from the White House, It may be set
down as a fact that the subsidy bill will
again die in the House.
TWO STEAMERS DOOMED
Suevlc and Jebba Both In Danger of
Going to Pieces.
LONDON, March 19. The White Star
Line steamer Suevlc, which ran ashore
near The Lizard lighthouse on the night
of March 17, is still in an exceedingly
dangerous position. She has shifted
slightly and is now leaning over to
starboard. There appears to be but
little chance of refloating the steamer.
The seas are running high and it is
thought that, if she remains long in
her present position, she will break in
two. The work of salvage has had to
be discontinued. The Elder-Dempster
Line steamer Jebba, which ran aground
the morning of March 18, almost with
in sight of the Suevic, also Is In a dan
gerous position, and there is little hope
of saving this vessel.

chair. My pood old doctor, -who has been
a lifelong friend, recommended DUFFY'S

bronchitis failed. As you may imagine, tho
diseased condition was chronic by this time.
I took it and at once began to improve. In
writing my application for membership in
the Century Club of the First Baptist
Church, Portland, Oregon, of which I am an
honorary member, I said I was indebted toj
DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEY, for
my improved state of health. " I am now in
my 87th year, and have a good appetite,
good digestion and a better use of my limbs
than I formerly had, due to the use of DUF
