RIVER CAPTAINS
TAKEN TO JAIL
Masters of the Lurline and
Spencer Arrested for Break
ing Speed Rules. .
ARE RELEASED ON BONDS
Port of Portland Engineer Lock
wood Says That Racing Must
Be Discontinued Between
Points . Above Llnnlon.
Captain Charles R. Spencer, master of
the steamer Chas. R. Spencer, and Cap
tain W. W. McCully, master of the steam
er Lurline, were arrested yesterday
morning on charges of operating their
respective vessels in the harbor at a speed
exceeding eight miles an hour. Each
captain put up bonds in the sum of $100
and the boats were allowed to proceed
from port. The cases will be called In
the Municipal Court on the lay over days
of the boats.
The masters of the Spencer and the Lur
line have been accused of exceeding the
speed limit but it was not until last
Tuesday that absolute evidence could be
secured. The warrants on which the
arrests were made were sworn to by J.
B. C. Lockwood. Engineer of the Port of
Portland. In conjunction with Harbor
master Speler, watches were set and
the time of the boats taken between the
steel bridge and the flour mill. On the
morning of July 14 both boats mentioned
ran well ahead of the time allowed. Cap
tain Speler states that the cases will be
pushed to the limit.
Complaint has been made by many ship
masters of the swells made by steamers
passing at full speed. Recently the Port
of Portland took the matter up and
passed a resolution to limit the speed of
steam vessels between Ltnnton and Port
land. This was in addition to the munici
pal ordinance requiring that boats do
not exceed eight miles an hour between
Ross Island and the flour mill. Boats of
the O. R. & N. Company and of the Regu
lator line have adhered to the ruling but
a number of other boats have failed to
comply.
The master of the British bark Crown
of India has made a number of complaints
about the swells of passing steamers caus
ing damage to his ship. A watch has
been maintained . for over two weeks by
the Port of Portland and the Harbor
master. A number of steamboat men maintain
that the state and the city has no power
to regulate the speed of steamers; that
It is a matter for the Federal Government.
As it now stands the question will not be
settled until a test case is made.
DOLLAR VISITS PORTLAND
Steamship Owner Will Send Boats
for Cargoes of Lumber.
R. Stanley Dollar, of the Dollar Steam
ship Company, of San Francisco, Is in
Portland looking after the Interests of his
company. Mr. Dollar is registered at

shipped from Portland to the Orient on
the steamship M. S. Dollar. The vessel
will arrive here about August 1 and will
carry 3.600.000 feet.
Steamers of the Dollar line will make
frequent calls at Portland for lumber.
Mr. Dollar said yesterday that he intend
ed to send his boats to this port as better
arrangements could be made for the pur
chase and the handling of timber. This
arrangement will give Portland the ad
vantage over Puget Sound in the lumber
business.

ues to be profitable the Dollar ships will
continue to load here. The craft of the
line are large vessels and are capable of

Eugene Proposes to Amend Charter
and Issue Water Bonds.
EUGENE, Or.. July 16. (Special.) The
City Council have asked City Attorney
Bean to draw an amendment to the city
charter authorizing the issue of $500,000
worth of bonds to be used in purchasing
the Willamette Valley Company's plant
here, and securing a gravity system of
waterworks for Eugene. Last Fall, the
people voted an amendment authorizing
an issue of 300.000, but investigation
shows that to procure the splendid water
system the city wants between 3300,000 and
1400,000 will be required.
The decision of the Supreme Court on
the Portland bond issue is very satisfac
tory to the people here as It will save
them considerable time in securing the
amendment.

W. E. Skinner Plans Chain of
Livestock Shows in West.
SPLENDID ENTRIES SURE
He Praises Local Advantages and Is
Impressed With Natural Beauties
of Country Club Site Oregon's
Opportunities Unexcelled.
W. E. Skinner, founder of the Inter
national Livestock Show at Chicago,
general superintendent of that exposi
tion the greatest in the United States
for seven years, and one of the fore
most stockmen of America, is In Port
land In the interest of the movement
to establish a complete chain of shows
for the entire Northwest. This circuit
is to include Portland, and will em
brace points all the way from St. Paul
to the Pacific Coast and from Denver
to the Coast, ten cities in all. Mr.
Skinner who is now heavily interested
ki the livestock industry of Denver,
and is vice-president of the National
Western Livestock Association of that
city, arrived in Portland yesterday and
Is staying at the Cornelius for a few
days looking over the situation here.
Yesterday afternoon, as the guest of
President S. G. Reed and Secretary G.
A. Westgate, of the Country . Club
and Livestock Association, he vis
ited the Country Club tract In
specting the race-course, the racing
stables and livestock barns with
pains-taking care and declared enthu
siastically that It is the finest site for
such usage of any In the United States,
with every natural advantage in its
favor, and not a drawback that he
could discover.
The Northwestern circuit which he
is Interested in establishing will, ac
cording to Mr. Skinner, be a reality
within the next year, for he declares
that almost every state involved in this
big plan is ready to enter into the
scheme.
The cities where expositions are held
which will be Included In this chain of
livestock meets will be as follows, the
season starting at 6t. Paul, late in the
Summer, and continuing from place to
place in about the order named, so as
to route the exhibits westward over
one system of railroads and back over
another line; St. Paul will have the
opening show, followed by Fargo, N.
D.; Miles City or Billings, Mont.; Spo
kane, North Yakima, Seattle, Portland,
Boise, Salt Lake and Denver. This
would give continuous expositions from
late in September until early in Janu
ary, when the National Western at
Denver is held.
Stock Show as Drawing-Card.
"Your opportunities here are unex
celled," said Mr. Skinner, last nitrht,
"and when you are well established
there is no reason why you should not
surpass the splendid record .Denver has
made. I will tell you why. Denver,
with nothing but a livestock show and
that limited to the meat type of ani
mals and farmers' draft horses, and
without a race meet or special feature
exhibits, drew 35,000 people every day
of the week's show, last January, and
we didn't have accommodations for
them. We had to hold an overflow
show. Had we had the facilities we
would have had an average of 40,000
attendance every day.
"Here you have a city fully as large
as Denver, and you have the added at
traction of a full week's races in addi
tion to the livestock show, so that you
should outdraw Denver considerably, pro
vided, of course, your people are edu
cated up to the meaning of such exposi
tions. "What I mean is this: You are
going to have huge packing plants built
here, and the only way In the world for
Portland to develop that Industry the
way it should be done Is to provide the
matterlal for the packers to work with,
and that is best done through a livestock
exposition. -
"We In Denver have seen the force of
this, so that only a few days before I
left home I let a contract for a (200,000
brick, steel and concrete exposition build
ing, in which all divisions and classes of
entries will be housed. This magnificent
structure must be turned over to our as
sociation not later than December 1.
Portland will have to have as big or big
ger building than that if the livestock
industry' of Oregon is to be developed the
way it should and the way it deserves.
The greatest impetus to such develop
ment, to my mind, will come when we
have established this circuit of ten cities,
and Portland and Oregon have further
need of demonstrating the proper spirit
of enterprise because two of the biggest
packing concerns of the country are to
be established right at your very doors.
Need of Scientific Development.
"Agriculture and horticulture are the
basis of civic and commercial life, and
the livestock Industry m the fundamental
basis of agricultural development. So
that any city, and particularly one situ
ated as favorably as Portland is, .owes it
to herself and to the country to develop
to the greatest possible limit the livestock
industry. It should be done scientifical
ly and with some purpose. Anybody can
raise 'scrub' stock, but my friend, Mr.
Ladd, whose splendid herds I have had
several opportunities of seeing, can put
a fresh-weaned calf on the market that
will weigh as much and fetch a higher
price than a full-grown 'scrub' animal.
That is the distinction. Make stockrais
lng a business based on scientific lines,
and there isn't a spot on God's footstool
that can do this better than Oregon can."
Mr. Skinner expects to have confer
ences with the packing-house Interests
here, with the leading stockmen in and
around Portland, during the next few
days, remaining here until over Sunday,
when he will go ,to Spokane and to Seat
tle in the interests of the Northwestern
circuit. So great is his confidence that
the movement will ' take tangible form
that he advises the officials of the Coun
try Club and Livestock Association to
begin early preparations for holding a
meet under such auspices next year.
ASK FOR RATE CONFERENCE
(Continued from First Page.)
term, ''family," as used in .the act to
regulate commerce, Is one of several
Interesting rulings made public today
by the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion. The rulings are upon questions
raised or submitted to the Commission
in correspondence. This decision is a
modification of a previous ruling to
the contrary effect.
In another ruling, the Commission
holds that common carriers may pro
vide at points along their lines eating
houses for passengers and employes of
such carriers, and that property for use
of the eating-houses may be properly
regarded as necessary and Intended for
use of the carriers In the conduct of
their business. It Is provided that these
eating-houses, however, must not serve
the general public or any portion there
of with food prepared from commodi
ties which have been carried at less
than the fulf published rates, and that
no utensils, fuel or servants employed
at all In serving other than passengers
and employes of the carrier, as such,
should be carried at less than the tariff
rates.
It is held in another decision that a
belt line owned by a - municipality
which participates in interstate move
ments Is subject to the Jurisdiction of
the act to regulate commerce of the
Commission.
In still another decision the Commis
sion holds that a mlsrouting carrier
may be authorized to make a refund on
account of Its error in mlsrouting a
shipment, and. that the carrier which
participated in the transportation with
out a lawful tariff applicable thereto
"should be dealt with through the de
partment of prosecutions." In this
case a shipment .was mlsrouted and
passed over a route via a part of which
no rate was filed with the Commission,
and was thus subjected to a higher
charge than the through rate via the
proper route.
A decision of peculiar Interest is that
in the case of a shipment which was
tendered destined to a certain point,
the direct route to which was' over the
lines of two carriers, a distance of 368
miles, the rate via that route being 22
cents. It was possible to send the ship
ment around over the lines of three
carriers, a distance -of 671 miles, and
secure a combination rate of only 19
cents. Application was made for a re
fund, on account of the difference be
tween the rates, but the Commission
held that the claim for a refund is to
be denied, on the ground that the much
longer and indirect route was not a
reasonable route. '

Against Greedy Railroads.
MOUNT AIRY, Ga., July 16. Judge
Speer, of the Federal Court, yesterday
passed a decree approving the finding of
the standing master In chancery for the
Southern District of Georgia, J. N. Tal
ley, in the lumber rate case brought by
members of the Georgia Sawmill Asso

vance of 2 cents a hundred pounds on
all lumber shipped from the Southern
States to Ohio River points and beyond,
was declared arbitrary, and the court or
dered the railroads to repay the sum of
the unlawful exactions which had been
made on the shippers. This Is the first

ALIA SHOT WRONG PRIEST
FATHER LEO FELL VICTIM TO
MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
Murderer Mistook Victim as Wrecker
of Italian Home Leo Never
in Italy-- '
CANON CITY. Colo., July. 16. A
signed statement, given last Sunday by
Gulseppe Alia to Antone Sasso, an Ital
ian guard at the prison, makes It ap
pear that Father Leo was a- victim of
mistaken Identity. In this statement
Alia declares that the priest whom he
killed was an Italian priest for whom
he worked five years in Portugal, and
who, he declared, dishonored his wife.
He said he recognized Father Leo as
this priest when he first saw Father
Leo In St. Elizabeth's Church, and he
visited the church several times before
shooting the priest, to assure himself
he had made no mistake.
As Father Leo had never been In
either Portugal or Italy, there is be
lieved to be no doubt that Alla'i Iden
tification of him was a delusion.
CRUSHED BETWEEN LOGS
Clarence Dean, 1 6 Years Old, Killed

Clarence Dean, a boy 1 years of age,
while assisting In unloading logs from a

jured and his right leg broken.
MALARIA AND
WEAK HEART
The following interesting story,
told by Mr. J. H. Riley, pensioned
fireman, of South Boston, Mass., is a
sample of the thousands received from
grateful men and women who have
been benefited by the world's great
tonic-stimulant.
In an interview Mr. Riley said :
"I joined the Fire Department of
South Boston in 1890 and was lately
pensioned off because of a bad fall
while in service, which telescoped my
spine.
"A little. over a year ago I was
taken sick while in the engine-house,
and it developed into heart trouble
and malaria. I went to a number of
doctors and two different hospitals
and went through a course of treat
ment from each, but I did not receive
much benefit from any of them. The
doctors would not let me go in swim
ming, nor smoke, nor drink anything
but water. I stopped both tea and
coffee. My case was getting very seri
ous when a friend said to me: 'Why
don't you get a bottle of Duffy's Malt
"Whiskey? I know a man who was
given up for all time, and he took
Duffy's Malt "Whiskey and today he
is as well a man' as you can find.' So
I commenced taking Duffy's Pure
Malt "Whiskey, and the result is that
the doctors now say that '. I am all
right, and I never felt better in my
life. Of course, I am very little good
as far as heavy work is concerned,
owing to my injury, but I am well,
and that is a good, thing to be able to
say. I thank you for the remedy that
put me pn my feet again. "
Duffy 's Pure Malt "Whiskey is . an
absolutely pure distillation of malted
grain; great care being used to have
every kernel thoroughly malted, thus
destroying the germ and producing a
predigested liquid food in the form of
a malt essence, which is the most ef
fective tonic stimulant and invigora
tor known to science; softened by
warmth and moisture, its palatability
and freedom from injurious sub
stances render it so that it can be re
tained by the most sensitive stomach.
(Dose) : One teaspoonf ul in each
glass of drinking water during the
hot weather will kill all germs.
If weak and run down, take a tea
spoonful four times a day in half a
glass of milk or water. It stimulates
the heart action, causes the blood to
course more quickly through the veins
and builds new tissue.
Duffy's Pure Malt "Whiskey is sold
throughout the world by druggists,
grocers, and dealers, or shipped direct
for $1.00 per bottle.

ALL AROUSED BY MURDER
Killing of Aged Bridegroom Angers
Delaware People.
DOVER, Del., July 16. The supposed
murder of William Williams, the 60-year-old
farmer who lived near the Maryland
state line and who was about to marry
Elizabeth Walls, a 13-year-old girl, has
aroused the entire Delaware peninsula.
The authorities are sparing no efforts to
reach a solution of the mystery. The body
of Williams was buried today.
The evidence of the Coroner's physician
before the Coroner's jury disproved the
suicide theory and he said death was due
to blood clots on the brain, the result of
a heavy blow on the head.
Members of the family are very reticent
regarding the tragedy. In searching for
clews the Delaware and Maryland authori
ties have discovered that both the Walls
and Williams family were opposed to the
m arri age.
Is Due to the Fact That We Cure
OXTR OFFICES ARE STRICTLY PRIVATE and
equipped with the most modern appliances for
the proper treatment and prompt cure of all spe
cial diseases of men.
We earnestly request an Interview with every

eases for which they have been unable to find a
