Lumber Exports Foreign Have Been
Slow During Present Month.
Grain Shipments Will Pass
2,000,000 Bushels.
With 1,11.9S4 feet of lumber valued
at $13,749 the British ship Largiemore

phins, and the Americana, which is
taking the product of the Oregon mins
at Llnnton. will finish the export busi
ness for the month. The total will
run under 3.000.000 feet. This 1
only a trifle short of the amount sent
to foreign shores for the same period
of last year, but Is not in keeping with
the exports that have been made dur
ing the first three months of the ce
real year. Coastwise shipments of lum
ber are looking up a little.
Grain shipments have already passed
the mllion and a half mark. and. with
the Kederland and the Magdala, steam

Snit to Collect Marine Insurance.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 23. Suit to col
lect 115. COO Insurance on the steamer M. S.
Dollar was yesterday filed in the United
States District Court by the M. a Dollar
Steamship Company against the Maritime
Insurance Company, which wrote a pol
icy for that amount on the vessel In De
cember. 1904, Just previous to the capture
of the steamer by the Japanese and Its
condemnation and sale by the prize court.
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.

MR. 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.

C. W. Nottingham's Injunction against

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

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

the value of 14978.34. A valuation of
$2250 is placed on the estate of John E.
Lombard, in an inventory and appraise

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

Today part of certain commercial
functions is in charge of the Chamber
of Commerce, another part is handled
by the Commercial Club, where pro
perly every Item of such duties should
be left to the Board of Trade the same
as is done in other large trade centers.
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

also think that this can be brought

They might easily be placed under

WHY DREDGE WAS MOVED
IV. Ii. Boise Says O. F. 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.

When bad blood is caused from an infection of the circulation by the
virus of Contagious Blood Poison, it usually shows in the form of ulcerated
mouth and throat, copper-colored splotches on the body, swollen glands in
the groin, falling hair, sores and ulcers, etc. These general symptoms,
nffectino- all oarts of the bodv. show how dee-olv rioisoned the blood
becomes, and emphasizes the dangerous character of the trouble. If allowed
to remain in the system the disease will finally wreck the health and break
down the strongest constitution. No medicine can cure Contagious Blood
Poison which does not rid the circulation of every particle of the virus.
S. S. S. is the one real and certain cure; it goes down to the very bottom of
the trouble, and by removing every trace of the poison, and adding rich,
healthful qualities to the blood, forever cures this powerful disorder. S. S. S.
is the most reliable of all blood purifiers, and its concentrated ingredients of
healthful vegetable extracts and juices especially adapt it to curing this
insidious trouble. Write for our home treatment book, which is a valuable
aid in the treatment of the different stages of the disease, and ask for any
special medical advice vou wish. No charee for either.

mental faculties. No greater mistake can be made than to consider
lightly the first evidence of the introduction of any disease into your
system or to neglect the first symptoms of weakened mind and Im
paired health caused by neglect. Ignorance, dissipation, etc.
