ure of Inspiration to all associated with
the conference.
"If the visitors to our city and state,"

SESSION OP THE CLERICUS
International Relegates Meet at St.
Stephen's Church.
Topics of Interest to the church and
the Sunday school were discussed hy
capable speakers yesterday at trie ses
sions of the international clerlcus of the
eighth missipnary department of the
Episcopal Church. The business sessions
of the conference were suoplemented
' during the noon hour by a trolley ride to
Council Crest and the serving of luncheon
by the Woman's Guild of St. Stephen's
parish at St. Stephen's Church, where the
meeting was held. It was voted to hold
next year's conference at Vict aria, D. C.
The day's services were inaugurated
with Holy Communion at St, Stephen's
Church, Rev. H. M. Ramsay, vicar of
St. Stephen's being the celebrant. During
the morning session, "Church Discipline
and the Definition of a Communicant,"
was the subject of an exhaustive discus
sion In which several of the delegates
and seven of the Bishops in attendance
participated. Rev. A. A. Morrison, rector
of Trinity Church, of this city, introduced
the discussion. The other speakers werei
Rev. H. G. F. Clinton, of Vancouver, B.
C: Bishop Robert L. Paddock, o? Eastern
Oregon; Bishop Henry D. Roblnsan. of
Nevada: Bishop Franklin a Spalding, of
Utah; Bishop Charles Scaddlng, of Ore
gon: Bishop L. H. Welle, of Spokare:
Bishop W. F. Nichols, of California, and
Bishop James B. Funsten, of Idahp.
Sunday School Work." was the subject
of the opening discussion at the after
noon session. In this connection Rev. 1L
Beachan, of Vancouver, B. C. read a
paper on "The Sunday School, Its Rela
tion to the Church; Our Responsibility;
Organisation: Methods." The p?aker as
serted that the church was not livirg up
to Its divinely imposed responsibility for
the religious training of the youth. This
responsibility, he pointed out. was the
greater for the reason that many parents,
either on account of Indifference, lack of
Urn or Inability from per sou 1 Kngwl-
edg-e, had neglected this Important duty
and had shouldered It on the church.
Mr. Rosenthal, representing the Field
and Work Society, was allowed ten
minutes In which to present the merits
of his organization which proposes a new
solution to the problem of the, unem
ployed. Opportunity for the unemployed
to earn in an .honorable way what they
desired, rather than the gratuitous con
tributions from charitably inclined people,
explained Mr. Rosenthal, was the prin
ciple on which the society was formed. "It
proposes a co-operative plan by which
those needing assistance are given tn
opportunity to work for the necessities of
life. The society depends for. support on
the assistance of those who aid the de
pendent class by fixed contributions to
charity.
Rev. H. M. Ramsey, of St. Stephen's
Church, and. Rev. Arthur S. Lloyd, gen
eral secretary of the diocesan convention,
discussed "Luke the Physician," by
Harnack, the German theologian and his
criticism of the New Testament. - The
conference was concluded with evensong
and a sermon by Right Rev. Henry D.
Robinson, Bishop of Nevada.
During the day the Oregon clerlcus held
a meeting, transacted some business and
elected officers for the ensuing year as
follows; Chairman, Rev. J.. E. H. Simp
son; secretary, Arch-Deacon H. D. Chambers.
PENDULUM IS SWINGING
Public Sentiment Now Thought to
Favor Corporations.
CHICAGO, May 20. "The pendulum of
'public opinion, which has swung so far
from sympathy with corporate manage
ment, is going the other way, and con
fiscatory methods are already out of
fashion." This was the keynote of the
address of T. C Martin of New York,
discussing rates, franchises and regula
tions at the convention of the National
Electric Light Association yesterday.
"No questions during the last year
have had greater attention," he contin
ued, "on the part of the electric light
companies than those which concern re
lations with the municipality or the state.
It was Inevitable that the attempt to
control such corporations in the interest
of the public should come, for as the
desire for these necessities of modern
civilization increased there came also
an unhealthy process of stock Jobbing
and stock watering. .
Of course, this explanation has over
shot its mark, and. it is now seen, for
example, that public service commissions
cannot be constitutional unless they pro
tect the Interests of the corporations
as .well as the public."
Chicago Subway Bonds.
NEW YORK, May 20. A new financ
ing of the Chicago Subway Company
has been made public here In a circu
lar proposing a 20-year Issue of 5 per
cent first lien bonds to be dated June 1.
1908, redeemable at 103. Provision is
made for subsequent issues bearing a
lower rata of interest and maturing
later than June 1, 1928.
The Chicago Subway Company, 1n
which B. H. Harriman and the Armours
are largely interested, comprises the
Illinois Terminal Company and the Chi
cago Warehouse & Terminal Company.
It is proposed to exchange the new
bonds for the bonds of the Illinois Tun
nel Company, which were Issued De-.
cember 1, 1903, bond for bond, and the
coupon on this Issue, due June 1, will
be purchased at par for cash. A re
lease from the lien of the Tunnel Com
pany mortgage la provided for, as is
also the sale, lease or other disposition.
Mite of Idle Engines.
CHICAGO. May 90. A dispatch to the
Tribune from Elkhart, 7nd., says:
One mile of Idle railroad engines was
photographed In the yards of the New
York Central lines here yesterday by or
der of the company. The locomotives
numbered 120, and represent a cost of
nearly J1,000,000. It Is understood the com
pany proposes to exhibit the photographs
in connection with the arguments before
the Interstate Commerce Commission and
In the conference with the merchants and
other organizations that are making con
tests for reduced rates.
LADD PROPERTIES DEEDED
Corporation Takes Over Extensive
Holdings of the Estate,
Deeds are now being executed cover
ing the property of the Ladd estate to
the Ladd Estate Company, the corpora
tion formed during the past week to
handle the holdings of the Ladd family.
The estate will remain intact and the
heirs to the property will be given shares
in the corporation. Only members of the
family may hold stock.
The step has been taken for conven
ience In handling the various properties.
The methods to be followed In caring
for the estate had become too cumber
some. The making out of deeds and
other legal papers was tedious and' dif
ficult. The death of a member of the
family would also Involve long and tire
some proceedings to straighten out the
property. All this will be avoided by the
plan just adopted.
The Inventory value of the Ladd estate
is between $5,000,000 and $6,000,000. The
actual value of the property Is very
much larger. The incorporation of the
estate and the bank Incorporation are
distinct corporations. The capitalisation
of the Ladd Estate Company Is $2,000,000.
Old Clock Strikes Thirteen.
LONDON, May 9. A curious feature of
the clock first erected at his Worsley
depot In the ISth century by the Duke of
Bridgewater, and replaced, after renova
tion, in the entrance to Lord Ellcsmere's
new hall (Worsley), Is that It was so
designed originally as to strike 13 at 1
o'clock, and still does so.

REVIEWS POLICY II OFFICE
M&XSUSG SPEAKS TO VOTERS AT
TROUTDAXiE.
Declares He Will Enforce Sunday
Closing and Continue Prosecu
tions of Bank Officials.
TROTJTDALB. Or., May 20. (Special.)
District Attorney Manning and other
candidates addressed the citizens of
Troutdale last night. All the speakers
were well received, and the reception
tendered the District Attorney was In
the nature of an ovation. His address
was greeted with much enthusiasm, and
the number of times that his remarks
were Interrupted with applause seemed
to Indicate that the audience was in en
tire sympathy with what he said.
Mr. Manning reviewed, in a general
way, some of the events of his adminis
tration, and said that he offered himself
as a candidate upon the fairness and im
partiality of his .record as a prosecutor.
He declared that he had recognized nei
ther race, rank nor station in dealing
with lawbreakers.
"My election or defeat means little or
nothing from the standpoint of the indi
vidual," said Mr. -Manning, "but I sub
mit that some of the principles of law
enforcement for which I stand are put
directly in issue before the people of this
county. I have closed the saloons on
Sunday, and if I am re-elected. I shall
keep them closed as long as I am in of
fice. If I am defeated, I am unable to
say what will be the policy of the Dis
trict Attorney's office, but I do know
what it will be If I am elected.
"On the question of Sunday saloon
closing, the issue is now squarely before
the people, and it is up to the law-abiding
and honest citizenship of this county
to determine at the polls June 1 whether
the course I Ifave pursued in that respect
is to be upheld or repudiated.
"What I have done for the people In
the bank disasters is well known. I
claim no credit for myself, for I did only
what I saw and believed to be my duty;
but I want to submit it to you. upon the
proposition that I tried to do what I
thought to be right, and for the better
Interests of all concerned.
"In the prosecutions that followed in
vestigation of the wrecked Title Bank I
did that which my sworn duty as an of
ficer directed me to do, and I speak of it
here and now only for the purpose of
calling your attention to the fact that I
have sought to be sincere and honest in
discharging the duties of the office. I
want to say here, once and for all. that
if I am re-elected, these prosecutions will
be pushed through to the end. The re
maining cases are now set down for trial
and will be tried when the time comes.

BOMB WRECKS TENEMENT
Black Hand Angered Because Ef
forts to Extort Money Fail.
NEW YORK, May 20. The refusal of a
wealthy Italian physician to comply w'th
the demands of Black Hand criminals
for money resulted in endangering the
lives of 100 persons today, when a bomb
was exploded in the tencm gat-house at
S16 East Eleventh street. A number of
persons were injured and the occupants
of the house rushed into the street in
panic, while doors and beams which had
been twisted out by the explosion tumbled
all around them. The lower part of the
house was almost completely wrecked.
None of the injured was dangerously hurt
with the exception of Tony Lambarro,
who was crushed by falling timbers and
internally injured.
The explosion occurred when most of
the occupants of the house were at break
fast. The bomb had been placed in the
rear hall, under the stairs. The stairway
was almost completely torn away, every
door on ,fhe first and second floors was
wrenched off, windows were blown out,
and plaster and beams all over the house
were shaken down. Lambarro was on the
stairs when the explosion oceurred. The
others injured were struck by flying tim
bers in their apartments.
Dr. Attllllo Cacclnl, who had an office
on the ground floor, told the police that
he had received a number of threatening
letters of the Black Hand type.
DECRY A LARGER NAVY
Peace Conference at Lake Mobonk
Begins Its Session.
LAKB MOHONK, N. T., May 20 The
friends of peace and arbitration were
called upon at the opening of the Lake
Mohonk Conference on International Arbi
tration today to oppose the clamor to
place the United States on a war footing
commensurate with f he martial nations of
Europe.
John W. Foster, ex-Secretary of State
and presiding officer, declared that the
dispatch of the battleship fleet to the Pa
cific and "senseless rumors of a coming
war with Japan" have caused this awak
ened spirit of militarism. Colonel Foster
favored obligatory arbitration of interna
tional disputes.
The programme of the Mohonk Confer
ence includes the presenting of the result
of the second Hague Conference, and of
the recent Central American Peace Con
ference, and of a discussion of the rela
tions of colleges to the arbitration move
ment. The speakers will include Baron
Takahira, the Japanese Ambassador.
James Brown Scott, delegate to the late

ers today.

SELL BALL TICKETS
Arrangements for Rose Festi
val Function Completed.
MANY GUESTS OF HONOR
Fifteen Hundred Special Invitations
Sent Out to Larger Cities and
Towns Cowboy Parade
for Night of June 2.
Beginning today, tickets for the Rose
Festival Grand Ball, to be held at the
Armory, Friday night, June 6, will be
placed on sale at the Woodard, Clarke &
Co. store, and all those who have not re
ceived the speolal invitations may secure
tickets there. During the past few weeks
invitations have been sent out, about 1600
in all, to the leading cities and towns in
Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana,
Nevada and California, a limited number
going to each place. In sending out the
invitations to people of Portland, the
ball committee used the lists of all those
who had contributed to the general fes
tival fund, but all others who desire to
attend will be supplied with souvenir in
vitations with each ticket purchased.
A suggestion received at Rose Festival
headquarters yesterday, will probably re
sult in the addition of another interest
ing and spectacular feature to the "Spir
it of the Golden West" street pageant,
on Tuesday night, June 2. The sugges
tion comes from an "ex-cowboy," and he
says he will "round up" a "bunch" of the
"real gang" if the Festival will "only say
the word." The writer of the letter says
he has been out of the saddle for some
time, but knows where he can pick up a
crowd of cow-punchers who still have
enough of the real regalia of the plains
to make a showing that will open the
eyes of the "city guys."
His plan is to enter a detail of cowboys
In all the trappings of the "cow coun
try," mounted on their cattle ponies, in
some one of the parades of the week,
and the Festival executive committee
.will endeavor to secure a delegation large
'enough to warrant its appearance in the
"Golden West" parade in order to give
the spectators who have never visited the
cow country a life-like representation of
the cowboys in action.
Calls for Volunteers.
In line with this, the Festival urges
every cowboy or ex-oowboy in this part
of the country, who is willing to help
this plan along, to send in his name im
mediately, and an effort will be made to
get hold of a real old-fashioned stage
coach and have It entered in the same
division with the cowboy division. This
section will occupy its proper historical
position in the line of march.
Nearly 100 automobiles already have
been entered in the decorated motor-car
parade, which Is to be the longest one of
the four that will be held. The entries in
clude all sorts of cars, from the small
electric runabouts to the massive six-cylinder
touring cars, and as the parade
will carry with it a large number of
handsome trophies, competition in all
classes will probably be keen.
The holding of the two great 100-mlle
and 50-mile road races here during Fes
tival week, will bring into the lists of
the competitive automobile parade en
tries not only from Portland, but also
from Seattle, Tacoma, Denver, Salt Lake,
San Francisco, Oakland, and even Los
Angeles. In other words, it will be the
most comprehensive street pageant of the
Yesterday H. W. Stone, general secre
tary of the Portland Y. M. C. A., noti
fied the Rose Festival that the doors of
the Y. M. C. A. would be opened to the
"Jackles" of the cruiser and torpedo
boat flotilla which has been ordered here
for the Festival. Mr. Stone, in con
cluding his letter, said:
Guest9 of the T. 31. C. A.
"In behalf of the Y. M. C. A., I wish
through you, to extend the full courtesies
of our building, including the gymnasium,
library, pool-rooms, baths, swimming
pool, etc., to the use of all the uniformed
sailors while they are in Portland."
Last year, when the cruiser Charleston
was here, many of the sailors took ad
vantage of the similar otter which was
extended, and efforts will be made by the
Festival management to have the street
railway company and the local theaters
and other places of amusement extend
similar courtesies. Just as has been done
in all the cities on the Pacific Coast vis
ited by the warships.
At a meeting of the East Side Business
Men's League, at the East Side Athletic
Club's gymnasium tonight, the final de
tails of arrangement for the big cele
bration across the river will be arranged.
All standing and special committees are
expected to turn in final reports, so that
the League may know exactly where it is
at, how much money it will have to
spend for decorations, how many organi
zations will take part in the fun and
frolic, and just what the variouB improve
ment organizations have undertaken to
do to make the East Side's demonstration
a success.

SLASHES THROAT IN CAR
William M. Welch Makes Unsuccess
ful Attempt at Suicide.
Crazed by a protracted spree of three
weeks' duration, William M. Welch, of
Salt Lake City, 61 years of age. and a
cripple, made an unsuccessful attempt
to commit suicide by cutting his throat
with a pocket knife a few minutes
after 6 o'clock last night in a crowded
streetcar of the Mount Scott line,
which was Just leaving the waiting
room at First and Alder streets.
Passengers intervened in time to
save his life. The car had Just
started, when someone within the
car screamed:
"Stop! for God's sake! There's a
man (n here cutting his throat."
The car wa.i brought to a stop and
Welch was found sitting near the
front of the car with a gash three
inches long slit across his throat and
the blood streaming from the wound.
He was taken to the Good Samaritan
Hospital and will probably recover.
Mrs. Duniway's Optimism.
PORTLAND, May 19. (To the Editor.)
A careful reading of Mrs. Dunlwav's
optlmistio letter in today's Oregonian
leads me to suggest that it would be well
for the friends of the equal suffrage
movement not to take her words too seri
ously. It is little wonder, after her long
and strenuous struggle In the midst of
so many obstacles, now happily almost
overcome, that she is, perhaps, overconfi
dent, and my object in writing this is to
urge every voter to do his duty and prove
himself worthy of the confidence
in him by Mrs. Duniway and her 40,000
women aanerents in Oregon.

Protest Against Oar Service.
Complaint was made to the City Coun
cil yesterday afternoon by representa
tives of business houses in the vicinity of
Union avenue and East Burnside street,
that the present streetcar eervlce is
ruinous to the merchants. Owing to the
fact that a bridge is being constructed
across Sullivan's gulch on Union avenue,
the cars are being run but one way
across the Burnslde-street bridge, and
the Council voted to request the com

Bed-ridden Sufferer Completely Cured
by line of D. D. D. External Wanh.,
One of the most remarkable Eczema
cures recently credited to the well
known D. D. D. Prescription has just
been recorded in Chicago.
Mrs. E. Hegg, 1350 West Madison
street, under da,te of Dec. 9, 1907, writes
as follows:
"I suffered three years with Weeping
Eczema. It started with a little spot on
my knees and spread fast over my
whole body. I spent hundreds of dol
lars and went to every good doctor I
heard of, but kept getting worse.
Nothing would stop the awful itch and
burning
"I had to stay in bed from the mid

I tried D. D. D. Prescription. This Is
the 9th of December and I am entirely
free from the terrible disease. D. D. D.

ple were afraid of me I looked so ter
rible. My husband was the only one
who would take care of me. D. D. D.
stopped the itch at once so I could
sleep, which I had not done before.
Then I began to get better fast and
now my skin is clear and white, not a
