The insurance company contends that the steamship company purposely obscured the destination of the vessel at the time the policy was written, thus rendering the policy void. It is stated that the captain of the M. S. Dollar at the time of her seizure was supplied with duplicate clear ance papers to show to either Japanese or Russian naval officers, one set show ing his destination to be Vladivostok, his real objective point, and the other MoJI.

BRYAN AND HIS CAMPAIGN WOULD MAKE INTERESTING BOOK Eailway Officials Might Very Easily Set Forth Some of the Entertaining Features of the Democratic Candidate's Excursion Through the Populous Sections of the Great Northwest. "C AMPAIGNINO with Bryan" Is the title of a book that M. J. Buckley, general superintendent of the Hnrrtman lines In this territory, and J. H. O'Neill, traveling passenger agent Xor the O. R. & N-, might write, setting forth their experiences in escort ing the Democratic standard-bearer about the Pacific Northwest when he waa making a whirlwind campaign of this territory In 1896. It is probable the book will never be written but the ex periences of the two on that trip would make readable matter, provided they told tho truth. Superintendent Buckley went along to represent the operating department of the Harriman lines and to see that the special train was run to suit the Demo cratic candidate. Mr. O'Neill was on board to represent the passenger depart ment and to see that everything went oft smoothly. Between stations on the trip through O. R. A N. territory, both on the Ore gon and Washington lines, Mr. Bryan would retire to his car and go to sleep. Whenever a stop was scheduled, he would be awakened and would step to the rear platform of the train and make a speech. But through many of the smaller stations, the candidate's special would whisk by without even slowing down. At watertank towns and other small points Mr. Bryan would not come out to speak and it was not long before the ingenious Buckley and O'Neill found that the best way to prevent the people at the smaller stations being dis appointed in not seeing the candidate was to Impersonate Mr. Bryan them selves. In those days Mr. Bryan had plenty of hair. Either Buckley or O'Neill could easily be mistaken for the candidate if a train was scurrying through a town and they stood on the rear end, more or less obscured by dust. So It got to be a habit for either of the two to come out on the rear end and bow when they passed a waiting crowd where there was no stop scheduled and the enthusiasm they received was Immensely gratifying. To make the play stronger, one of the two would be standing on the rear plat form when the train would enter a town stuck out In the sagebrush and when he saw the crowd collected at the sta tion waiting to see the candidate; he would suddenly rush Into the car and seize the other by the arm and lead him out to the waiting multitude, when the other would remove Bryan's famous black slouch campaign hat from his head, borrowed for the occasion while Bryan slept, and bow profoundly to the crowd which Invariably broke Into thun derous applause. i WHITNEY FACES SERIOUS CHARGE Indictment for Manslaughter One of 13 Counts Re turned by Grand Jury. WORK NOT YET CONCLUDED Final Report Is Awaited With In terest as Other Than Regular Criminal Cases May Be Dealt With. Thirteen Indictments were returned by the county grand Jury, yesterday after' noon. Fourteen cases were reported on and the Jury' found evidence sufficient to hold the accused parties for trial In every case but one. By its second report the grand Jury has made plain that it is not slow in holding alleged offenders where there is some. thing tangible in the way of evidence The cases reported on were all In the regular run of criminal cases. The only one of more than ordinary Interest was an Indictment against Dr. O. B. Whitney, a young dentist, charged with having caused the death of his fiancee. Mabel Wlrtx, by mercurial poisoning. The Jury held him for manslaughter and there is no longer any doubt about the young man having to stand trial on that charge. His case had been dragging for nearly a year and there had been rumors that he was not to be prosecuted. No report was made on the case of Dr. Courtney, charged with criminal mal practice, nor was there any finding re turned In the investigation of charges that Whitney L. Boise mulcted a large sum from the Hawthorne estate, while serving as attorney and manager there for. The Jury reported at 2:30 P. M. In Judge Gantenbeln s court ana in ten min utes was back at work. Very few witnesses were examined dur ing the day. although now ana tnen someone was called In. County Clerk Fields was Questioned during the arter noon but on what subject is not known. Inasmuch as Mr. Fields' office is known as a model of its Tclnd it is not believed the conduct of his department was m nuestion. Unless new complaints are made and in vestigated it Is believed the Jury will be ready to make its final report and ask to be discharged by the ena ot me weea. This final report is being awaited with considerable interest, as it will deal, most likely, with several cases outside me regular criminal channels.

Nottingham's Injunction against the city to prevent his trial in the Muni cipal Court on a charge or violating me t hiiiMino. nrrilnnnm. was made the subject of a demurrer In tho Circuit This stunt made such a tremendous hit with the "bunch-grassers" that the two railroaders decided to Introduce another. They had heard so many of Bryan's speeches on the tour that they knew many of them by heart and one day at some little watertank town where the train had to stop for water, they de cided to make a speech of their own. Buckley got out and removed Bryan's black slouch bat with a flourish as soon as the train stopped and the waiting crowa Degan to cneer. Bryan was not soheduled to talk at that station and was Inside the train resting. The ap plause having subsided, Buckley gave them a good Imitation of one of Bryan's speeches, which was freely Interlarded with "Down with the trusts," "Up with the alfalfa," and other sentiments even more radical than Bryan espoused at that time. But the speech made a great hit and won Its share of applause, O'Neill, who was standing by on the platform, leading the handclapplng at proper Intervals. Mr. O'Neill did the same stunt at. an other town and the two thought they would win fame on their own merits as political speakers when tile Democratic candidate happened to come out on the platform at one station where one of the pair was making his speech. The candidate was much amused at the oc currence and the railroader whose talk was Interrupted made it all right by ending his tirade against the trusts, im perialism and a few other, things by saying, "And now, gentlemen, I want to In troduce to you that peerless champion of the peoples' rights," etc., etc., and Mr. Bryan made his own speech. ' At Kahlotos, though, the two imper sonators of a famous man met their Waterloo. The train slowed for the sta tion but did not stop and O'Neill rushed Into the car and brought the waiting Buckley out Into tlie limelight. The latter, of course, wore Bryan's black slouch hat and there was a crowd await ing expectantly at the station. Im mediately there went up a chorus of hurrahs and Buckley smiled broadly and bowed low as lie lifted his hat in his best imitation of Bryan. As Buckley, and O'Neill standing . smugly by. were en Joying the scene to the utmost some Dody, Just who the villain was has never been discovered by the two rail road men, shouted from the crowd, "Why hello. Buck old man. Hello, Jack." They had at last found someone who knew them, but to snub the fellow prop erly they did not even look In his direc tion but cast their eyes upward at a passing cloud. They were stung, though, for the applause died instantly and they wero branded as impostors- Court, yesterday. The demurrer was filed by the City Attorney's office and cites that there are no grounds for . a permanent injunction. Nottingham, it will be remembered, constructed a flimsy building inside the fire limits and when attacked got a special permit from the City Council. This did not deter the city authorities from proceeding with the prosecution. The demurrer will be argued at an early date. TABLE MAXXERS THE CAUSE Otto Meyer Secures Quick Divorce on Unusual Grounds. Mrs. Mary Meyer has such bad table manners and such a habit of telling scandalous stories about her husband, Otto Meyer, that Circuit Judge Cleland gave the husband a divorce on that account, yesterday. Meyer asked for the divorce on the grounds that his wife was cruel and Inhuman to him. Mrs. Meyer was in court with a counter charge. Their little boy was put on the stand during the proceedings and he told of the mother's exceedingly bad manners at the dinner table. The boy quoted a considerable amount of profanity he had heard her use in his presence. She is his stepmother. Jennie Kapsch was another disconso late wife who wanted a divorce and she got one. She said her husband, John Kapsch, was in the habit of using pro fane words. "She does the Bame to me," pleaded Kapsch. The wife then called her mother to de scribe Kapsch's language which the man's mother-in-law did in a complete and unmistakable way. L. Gerllnger Is Sned. L. Gerlinger, owner of the new Ger llnger block at Second and Alder streets, waa made defendant in a dam age suit. In the Circuit Court yester day, because of having been the owner of a basement grating which had a small bolt projecting above the side walk. Myrtle L. James tripped and fell over the bolt recently and In her suit of yesterday she asked for 1800 dam ages. William Palmer and C. G. KUi son, contractors who erected the block, are named as co-defendants. Injured Man Claims Damages. Herbert R. Nixon wants $2825 dam ages from the North Coast Co-operative Lumber Company to reimburse him for a broken ankle which he sustained while working as a lumber hustler. In his complaint filed with the Circuit Court yesterday, he says the company put him to work in a dangerous place without pointing out the dangers. A pile of lumber fell on him and his ankle was broken. The accident oc curred in May. Estate Worth Near $5000. An Inventory and appraisement of the estate of Louisa Johnson was filed with the County Court yesterday. Per sonal and real property is shown to the value of 14978.34. A valuation of $2250 is placed on the estate of John E. Lombard, in an inventory and appraise ment filed with the court. IN UNITY LIES STRENGTH Portland Commercial Bodies Should Have Joint Publicity Bureau. PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 22. (To the Editor.) In your columns of Septem ber 13 I notice that an effort Is being made to consolidate the various com mercial bodies of Portland Into one central organization. This suggestion should receive the hearty Indorsement of not only the commercial bodies themselves, but our citizens as well, as. In the estimation of the writer the purpose of a commercial organization is to advance rather than to retard progress; yet the existence of several bodies following the same line of work too often creates friction where con certed united action would on the other hand produce the most satisfactory re sults. We must remember that here in Ore gon we are In our infancy. At our hands we have resources of the most manifold description, yet untouched by the ingenuity of man. Climatic con ditions, natural resources, and an abun dance of all that Is good and a scarcity of all that Is bad, opportunities galore and many other things that would ap peal to the progressive spirit of the ever alert American citizen can be found In Oregon. But above all this, we should fully realize that In a large measure we are helpless, owing to the lack of that co-operative spirit which is so essen tial in expounding our facilities and resources to the prospective settler. Wherever all the interests of a city are working in harmony, progress and prosperity move rapidly, while on the other hand cities whose forces are scattered are always lagging behind. There should be but one source of supply through which the prospective settler, or the man with capital, or the manufacturing enterprise, seeking a new location, could secure the infor mation he desired. Such an organiza tion should be In a position to embrace every item of interest within the do main of Oregon. There should be one WHY DRUGS WON'T CURE YOU Want to know why drugs haven't cured you? Tou are doping your stomach day after day with nauseating medi cines, but don't seem to get any better I'll tell you why. The stuff that you take Is nothing more than poison, and poison never cures anybody. Instead of giv ing your body nourishme nt, something to build up, you take drugs, which tear down. To cure any thing you must help nature. " Na ture will cure you If she has the power. This power Is electric ity. You see, elec tricity runs every part of your body. Most all the ail ments of man can be traced to the folltifA in- hrenlclnz down of the nerves, stomach, liver, kidneys, heart and digestive appa ratus. The reason any organ fails to do Its work properly Is because it lacks motive power, electricity. Restore that force where it is need ed and. pain and sickness will dis appear. I do this with my Electro Vigor. Electro-Vigor saturates the nerves with a soothing stream of elec tricity, and they carry the force to every part of your body, giving strength and nourishment where it is needed.

It must immediately become evident to the man who studies commercial conditions that such a division of en ergy is not conducive to best results, and it is hardly conceivable how any business man of the community who has the prosperity of the city at heart, should oppose a movement to bring about a consolidation, I sincerely believe that the commer cial bodies should join hands, and I also think that this can be brought about without eliminating the identity of any of these bodies. Such a con solidation would save a great deal of money, and what Is more would great ly increase the influence of the organi zation. . They might easily be placed under one management with a proper divis ion of departments.

Swlgert AVas Xot Responsible. TV. Jj. Boise, who negotiated for the filling of the low land between Belmont street and Hawthorne avenue by the Pa cific Bridge Company, says Mayor Lane is entirely mistaken in his statement that the Fort of Portland dredge was taken from this work through the influence of C. F. Swlgert. "The Port of Portland dredge," said Mr. Boise, "left the work because It was not fitted for the class of work required, and we entered into an agreement with the Pacific Bridge Company to do the work for 25 cents a cubic yard, the com pany agreeing to build a clamshell dredge that would handle the gravel and sand at a great depth. When this agreement was reached I drew up the contracts and had them signed by the property-owners for the fills. 'That was the way the nils were start ed, -and the Port of Portland dredge had nothing whatever to do with them.
