Vals. to $7.50 LOUIS EPPiM IS DEAD FAMOl'S AS HOTEti MAX IX THE EARLY DAYS OF PORTLAND. Furnished Banquet to Yillard, Be came Manager of Yokohama Hos telry and Friend of Mikado. SAN FRANCISCO, June 16. A private cablegram has been received here an nouncing the death at Yokohama of I.ouls Epplnger, manager of the Grand Hotel In that city ana one of the best known hotel men on the Pacific Coast and in the Orient. Mr. Eppinger was 77 years of age. Formerly In business In San Francisco and Portland in the '70s. Mr. Eppinger has for the past IS years been the man ager of the Grand Hotel in Yokohama, the hostelry at which nearly all Euro peans and Americana stopped when In that city. He was ott of the best-known Americans in the Orient, had a wide ac quaintance not only on the Pacific Coast but In Japan, China and the Philippines. Mr. Eppinger enjoyed the confidence of the Japanese governmenf and was deco rated by the Mikado for having sent all his employes to the army in the Japanese-Russian war on full pay and for other assistance rendered to the govern ment. Mr. Eppinger came to San Francisco In March on a visit and had but recently returned to Yokohama. Louis Epplng-er was at. one time a well-known restaurant and hotel pro prietor of this city. He came to Port land in 1S78 from San Francisco, where the panic of that year ruined him financially. Soon-after his arrival In this city he opened a restaurant In the Leonard block at First and Ankeny streets. In Its service and appoint ments it was much superior to any thing of its class in' existence at that time. Old residents declare that It has never been surpassed. It was In this restaurant that the banquet was ten dered to President Henry Villard, of the Northern Pacific, upon the com pletion of that line. The place, how ever was not a success and within a year was closed. Mr. Eppinger then took charge of the GUman Hotel and later assumed the management of the Esmond Hotel. In 1885 he removed to Salt Lake, where he had charge of the diners for the Union Pacific Jn 1SS8 he went to Yokohama and later took charge of the Grand Hotel in that city. On account of age and failing sight he relinquished the management of that hostlery, but con tinued to reside there. SAFECRACKERS AT MILTON Smash Combination, but Are Unable w to Secure Any Coin.

The robbers were either scared away or were unable to get into the eafe, but they left it in such a condition that it will require the services of an expert to open it. An p. R. & N. detective is here working on the case, but there seems to be no clew. However, a hobo suspect is being held for investigation. American Auto's Progress. NERTCHINSK. Asiatic Russia. June 16.

COPELAND CASE REVERSED Supreme Court Overrules Demurrer Granted by McBrlde. SALEM, Or., June 16. (Special.) Two appealed cases were decided by the Supreme Court today, the lower court being reversed in each Instance. The most important case was that of Richard Wills and others against the Nehalem Coal Company and M. S. Cope land, from Clatsop County. This suit was the outcome of a coal mining proj ect promoted by W. H. Copeland. Mr. Copeland secured an option on a tract of land believed to contain coal, the price being fixed at $12,000. He then organized the Nehalem Coal Company with a capital stock of $15,000, he subscribing- for shares to the amount of $100, and his wife, M. S. Copeland, $7500. so that they controlled a major ity of the stock. They then sold stock and used the proceeds to buy the land, but took it in the name of M. S. Cope land, who transferred it to the company at a consideration'of $87,000. she taking as pay the 750 shares of stock and a note for $12,000. Four years later this suit was brought to either have her stock canceled or compel her to pay for it. In the lower court Judge Mc Brlde sustained a demurrer to the com plaint, but on appeal the Supreme Court. In an opinion by Commissioner Slater, holds that the complaint states facts sufficient to entitle plaintiffs to relief. The case is therefore remanded with instructions to overrule the de murrer. Louis Sommer. N. C. Haskell and Her man Fuchs. respondents, vs. Charles A. Compton and W. F. Compton. appellees, from Baker County. William Smith Judge, reversed and remanded: opinion by Justice Eakln. This was a suit to secure possessfon of certain real property. The case is reversed because of errors In the court below in admitting evidence and In giving Instructions to the jury. Georgia Beats Coaling Record. WASHINGTON. June 16.

In the best hour, 458 tons were taken on board. The ship is on the Pacific Coast. Cfemous Old Hotel Doomed. NB YORK. June 16.
