After a conference yesterday afternoon rith General Manager O'Brien of the rlarriman lines In this state, the delega tion of Eugene business men appointed to confer with Mr. O'Brien regarding better ranroaa laemtiea for that city left for home entirely satisfied with the result of the conference. Points on which the com mittee wanted information were cleared up and better arrangements for handling iraf no at Eugene will be ' made by the Southern Pacific Company. The meeting net ween the general manager and the Eugene citizens was a very friendly one and resulted In a better understanding on Dotn aides. The committee asked for better train service between Eugene and Wendlina and was assured that plans had already ceen made, to inaugurate a dally mixed train service "between the two points. This will be started within a short time and the Eugene men expressed themselves as perfectly satisfied with this arrangement. 'A new depot building for Eugene was also taken up. General Manager O'Brien told the committee that plans are already under way for better station facilities there and that work will probably be started wtihln the next 60 days to pro vide the necessary changes. The com mittee was also pleased with this in formation. The visitors also asked that arrange ments be made at Eugene for terminals for the Oregon Eastern Railroad, the Har rlman line surveyed across Central Ore gon from Natron to Vale. Mr. O'Brien told them that this' matter Is not en tirely under his jurisdiction and he will have to consult with others before making any definite announcement as to Oregon Eastern terminals. He pointed out that the construction of this line cannot be accomplished for some time yet and that therefore any discussion as to the loca tion of terminals Is somewhat premature. STEAM IiOCOMOTIVES WILIj GO Electric Engines - Will Supersede Them on O. W. P. tine. By the first of next year the steam locomotive now In use on the Ore gon Water Power lines to haul freight trains will go. They will ba super ceded by modern electrio locomotives, which have been ordered In the East and will be delivered by December 1. These locomotives are the latest thing in electrical construction and will be . u v. men nuiu ill HUB BlBie. Two huge electric locomotives of steel, weighing 40 ton each, are now being built In the East for delivery this Fall. Two other similar machines of 85 tons each are being built in the local shops. The 35-ton engines are of 800 horsepower and the 40-ton lo comotives will have 400 horsepower. The latter engines will haul as heavy a- freight train as the ordinary 60-ton steam locomotive. These locomotives are eight-wheelers and each wheel Is connected up with wheels. This adds greatly to the trac tive power of the locomotives. In addition to these engines, the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company-will receive a large number of passenger and freight cars during the Summer and Fall. Orders are in for 94 passenger coaches, 34 of which will go to the O. W. P. division and 60 'to the allied lines, and for 10 box cars, 40 flat cars and two cabooses. . Expenditures during the present year for new equipment on the lines of the company will amount to over $520,000. Jn addition a very large sum will be spent for trolley wire and other material necessary to change the freight system on the O. W. P. from steam to electrical power. Reduced Rate for Medrord Carnival. Southern. Pacific passenger officials have authorized a reduced rate of one and one-third fare for the round trip to Medford from all points on the Ore gon lines, on account of the Medford Merchants' Carnival and Fruit Fair, which will be held there from August 6 to August 10. The affair' will bo given under the direction of the Med ford Commercial Club, and promises to be one of the biggest events of the year in the Rogue River country. The Oregon State Horticultural Society will hold its annual meeting at Medford at the same time and the reduced fare will be used by those wishing to at tend the latter gathering. The car nival will have a long programme of athletic sports, literary and musical features and a large electrical display is promised. Xew Train on the O. R. & N. A new daily passenger train between Pendleton and Walla Walla that will make the trip between Portland and Walla Walla by daylight is promised by the O. R. & N. Company.

V By the breaking of a sewer near tha sealehouse In the terminal yards yester day, the weighing of cars was Interferred with. All cars with loads to be dis charged are weighed at this house, but the damage done by the broken sewer makes this Impossible. It is not ex pected, however, that the accident will delay the discharge. of cars for long aa the sewer will be repaired today. FEARS THEJTELLOW PERIL San Francisco Merchant Complains of Japanese Invasion. Timothy Pearson, father of the mem bers of the firm of Pearson Bros., Front street commission men. is In Portland on a visit to his sons. Mr. Pearson is In business in San Francisco. He is not very confident of the early rehabilitation of the city, but says that eventually the "Old town" will again take first place in the business of the Coast, and that even now bank clearings' show that a vast amount of trade is being handled. The greatest fear Mr. Pearson has for n Francisco's future Is the menace to HON SATISFIED trade and industrial pursuits threatened by the large and constantly increasing Influx of Japanese. He says they are en gaged In every conceivable pursuit, and are monopolizing the best parts of the city. The only line they have not Invaded so far Is the commission business, but he says it Is only a question of a short time when they will have made Inroads upon that also tor the reason that many Jap anese are buying up valuable farming lands and will soon be in a position to furnish enormous quantities of produce and enter, into competition with Ameri can farmers.

SEARCH WITHOUT RESULT Night Spent in Woods by Girls and Hunt by Campers Resumed In Morning, With What Suc cess' Is Not Yet Known. Lost in one of the almost impenetra ble canyons of the Cascades near Welch's and the probable prey of the wild animals that infest that region, is the plight of two young women, reports Thomas McCusker, who returned from that mountain resort yesterday.- - The names of the young women, who were camping with friends at Welch's, were not learned by Mr. McCusker and owing to the distance of Welch's from a tele phone, it was impossible last night to learn whether or not any trace of the missing women had been found. Early Sunday afternoon the two young women, in company of Mr. and Mrs. Robinson, of this city, left camp for a flower-picking stroll up the side of the mountain. After going a short distance the quartet separated, Mr. and Mrs. Robinson selecting one path and the girls taking another, and that was the last that has been seen of the young women. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson also lost their way and but for a pocket compass and a slight acquaintance with the topog raphy of the surroundings' they would probably not have succeeded in reaching camp. As it was they did not find their way out of the mountain until late in the afternoon. They immediately reported the dis appearance of their companions who were supposed to have wandered into one of the canyons. Several of the campers, reinforced by a party of sur veyors that was camped near by, promptly Instituted a search, but little progress had been made when darkness made it necessary to defer further efforts to locate the lost ones until morning. Early yesterday morning the search was resumed, but with what success could not be learned last night. ' At the Stock Theaters "The Royal Slave" at the Star. FRANK D'CAMP. ' heavy man and stage director at the Star for the past two months, comes to the front this week -in the title role of "The Royal Slave." The success of the play is largely due to the efforts of Mr. DeCamp, and his wife, Eunice Murdock, Without them the cast would be weak. The bill Is one of the best ever offered y the Star Stock Company and a dis tinctive hit, a success in every sense of the word. This is not Mr. DeCamp's first appearance in this difficult role. For three years he played the part on the road under the direction of Gordon T. ennett. Raymond Whittaker and Margaret Pitt, two of the Star favorites, have left 'the company and Charles Burnl son, who for some time past has been playing minor parts, is now playing leads: Claudia Coloma, the new lead ing lady, made her first appearance yesterday, and if all her work is on a par with that of last night she will become one of the most popular foot light favorites of the city. The story of the play is nothing out of the ordinary. It has some novelty, ST i -KS ? ' . :TYY?:Y :i mfzm4 T P & ' v.. ' Li but the plot runs in the usual melo dramatlo line. Miss Coloma, Miss Eunice Murdock. Mr. DeCamp and Mr. BurnUon hold the center of the stage, while -Frank Connors and little Miss Fields do a comedy stunt. Miss Fields sings a clever song that draws hearty applause. ' "Tho Royal Slave" will run all week, vtih matinees today, Thursday, Sat urday and Sunday. Frontier Drama at Lyric. THERE is plenty of life and action at the Lyric this week in "The Road to Frisco," astory of the days of '49. There are miners, and plenty of them; plainsmen and camp followers, all of whom go "heeled" armed to the teeth, each carrying a six-shooter in his belt There is also an' English lord, accompanied by his valet, also the inevitable waif and the big-hearted woman who acts as camp cook. Pic ture this aggregation and you can form an idea of the play. The plot is about the same as that of the usual frontier melodrama. It is the story of a young woman, heir to a lost gold mine, pursued through life by a heart less woman, who by lying and schem ing tries to cheat her out of her own. But her plans are foiled, mainly through the efforts of the camp waif and the heroine's ardent admirer, the English lord. Verna Felton, the favorite of the Lyric, is cast as the waif and does her usual good work. Irving Kennedy, as the titled Englishman, is another play er deserving of mention. Harry Blanchardr- as the valet; Forrest Sea bury, as Pipes - Flnnegan, and . Mrs. Clara Allen, as Moll Casey, keeps the audience convulsed with laughter. "The Road to Frisco" will make good with those who like life in a play, for there Is plenty of it. . The play will run all week. At the Vaudeville Theaters Grand. THE kind of vaudeville that Manager I Errickson continues to give his patrons should appeal to the general public as very good, indeed, barring the illustrated ballad singing of Joe Thomp son, which is calculated to fatigue those who sit patiently through his portion of the entertainment in order that they may see the rest of the show. The perform ance opens with . Cavana In a novelty tight-wire act which proves to be one of the very best of its kind ever seen on the stage of the Grand. He accomplishes some wonders of equilibrium and con tortion that entitle him to a position among the best in the business. Grace Orma, a singing and talking comedienne, proves to be properly entertaining. Burns, Morris & Co., are seen In an amusing skit called "What Happened .to O'Hara." The dancing of Gllmore and Castle la a distinct feature of the show. Allen Shaw, one of the most skillful coin and card manipulators to be found anywhere is a revelation and was Immensely popular with, the audiences yesterday. The feature act is Beatrice Moreland and Percy Hunting in a tabloid farce called "Taming a Husband." Hunting Is a very clever comedian and succeeds in keeping up -a roar of laughter during most of his time on the stage. Miss Moreland is an attractive woman and a reasonably capable actress, but she Is not the equal of her partner. The motion pictures prove to be fully as amusing as could be desired. The Grand offers a good show this week and vaudeville lovers will make no mistake In patronizing the popular Washington-street showhouse. Pantages. THIS week's bill at Pantages is an average" one and elicited a consider able degree of enthusiasm yesterday when it was presented for the first time. The Beau Valr Trio, which is featured as the top-line act is especially noteworthy. It is an Indian novelty sketch which is a wide departure from what is customarily seen on the vaudeville stage. One of the trio is a full-blood Indian and is one of t ,v... life.;:. 3k. :. f XJifEt'iiv a.: ' 1 PARALYSIS CURED PATIENT GIVES ALL THE CREDIT TO OR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS. Sorely Afflicted, He Was Cured After Ordinary Methods Failed Evan to Glvs Relief There are still people who say that partial paralysis cannot be cured. If yon have partial paralysis or some other severe nervous disorder, do you think it is better to be treated by some one who insists that you axe incur able, or to take a treatment that grateful patients throughout the United States testify has cured them? A recent case where a cure was effect ed was that of Mr. Oharlee H. Gilden of Portland, Ionia Co., Mich. Mr. Gilden is a veteran of the civil war, and fought With the Eighth New York Heavy Artil lery."' The story of his affliction told in his own words is as follows: "In 1898 I was attacked with terrible twitching sensat ions and numbness all over my body, which my physician said was paralysis and which he attributed to a bullet wound received during the war. "I seemed to be getting paralyzed all over and finally could hardly walk. My eyes became weak and I had to get stronger glasses. I could not move the lid of one of my eyes and my face and mouth were drawn over to the right side to such an extent that I oould not speak distinctly. I was also troubled with palpitation of the heart. : "In the fall of 1898 after ha ring been Tinder the treatment of several doctors and having tried electricity without help, I bought six boxes of Dr. Williams Pink Pills and got some relief. After taking six boxes more, I could stand a hard day's tramp and another six boxes cured me." i This case, like numerous others, bears witness to the wonderful curative prop erties of Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills in .nervous disorders. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure general end nervous debility because they make liew blood. They strike at the root of t hese and other blood diseases, such as rheumatism, anaemia, indigestion and nervous troubles, such as neuralgia, ner vousness and spinal weakness. A valuable booklet, "Nervous Disor ders," will be sent free on request. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on re ceipt of price, 60 cents per box, six boxes for $3.60, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y. the few genuine aborigines in the thea tjcal business. This is a splendid act and one of which the management may well feel proud. Rome and Ferguson ap pear In a rough and tumble comedy act and diffuse an excellent quality of fun. The Yalto dtio, of whirlwind dancers, are among the swift ones In the dancing line. This Is their first appearance here and they are worth seeing. The Southern Quartet, which Is not new to Portland, has some new songs and Is reasonably good although not such a phenomenal hit as to create a sensation. Ella Hazlett is a fair singing and dancing soubrette who succeeds in being entertaining for a little while. Jean Wilson, one of the few men who has a license to sing Illustrated songs maintains his reputation this week and the biograph exhibits some Interesting pictures. No body will go wild over the Pantages offering this week but it Is worthy a visit. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Mary A. and Benjamin Fallows to Ola M.

CRUSHING BLOW.TO TILYOU Ivoss of Steeplechase Park Again Makes Him Poor Man. NEW TORK. July 29. Georpe C. Tllyou, chief owno- of Steeplechase Park. Coney Island, which was burned early Sunday, has for years been one of the picturesque figures of Goney Island. He has lived near the ocean's roar practically all his lifew- and was one of Coney Island's pioneers In tho amusement line. Years ago, when only a small part of the beach was utilised as a pleasure resort, Tllyou bought much of the adjoining land, and these holdings In times of stress have put him on his feet again. Sunday's Are was only one) of several hard blows that have come to Tilyou. Some years ago, when Johnny McKane was "Czar of Coney Island." Tllyou gained his enmity by opposing certain of McKane's projects. So strong was Mc Kane's Influence that Tilyou's enterprises began to fall, and he bad himself stated that his affairs were in serious shape when McKane's downfall came because of his utter contempt of election And other laws. It Is said Tllyou was at the Grand Central station to see McKane the day the lattr started under guard for Sing Sing prison. Tllyou has announced that he will not rebuild at Steeplechase Park, but friends who know the man say he will change his mind when the first blow which has Just been received wears off. It was charac teristic of Tilyou Sunday to take what profits he could from the sad situation by selling tickets at 10 cents apiece to peo ple who wanted to enter his grounds and see how little ho has left. He also put up a cheerful sign thanking people for past f a vorH and sympathy. An idea of the size of the Sunday fire may be gained when it Is said the area burned aggregated about 30 acres. From 200 to 300 firms and individuals were put out of business by the fire, which caused a financial loss -of about il.000.000. The Insurance aggregates only 1180,000. A cigarette stub, landing In some wast paper, caused the trouble. Great Oil Well In Utah. SALT IAKE CITY, July 2S. After making a visit to the new oil well at Vir ginia City, In the extreme northeastern corner of Utah, A. F. Phillips, of the Tribune, summarizes the conditions there In this form: "The Virginia Oil & Development Com pany Is pumping 100 barrels of oil a day from Its 60-foot well. The well will un doubtedly become a gusher If shot, but. the management does not desire a nat ural flow until It acquires facilities for handling the oil. The oil la believed to have a paraffin base, although this is not positively demonstrated as yet." Samples brought by Mr. Phillips are now In the. hands of a chemist. At pres ent this is the only boring In the dis trict, but three rigs are en route to Virginia City. America, Jews' Promised Land. NEW YORK. July 29.
