TTTE MORNING OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 19Q3. IRK TO DEVELOP WESTERN STATES Trans - Mississippi Congress Opens With Notable Speakers. IMMIGRANTS FOR WEST John Barrett Condemn Neglect ol Latin-American Trade and Says Other Nations Are Ready to Selxe It. SAX KRAXCISi0. Oct. . Assem bled to pronmte the common Interest of nearly a score of states comprising; the West, several hundred delegates In attendance upon ttie opening- ses sion of the Nineteenth Trana-.Missla-slppi Commercial Congress today lis tened to gratifying assurances of co operation and support from the Na tional administration, from the repre sentative of 20 republics of the West ern continent, who are Interested in the pending deliberations, from the two leading candidates for the presi dency of the I'nlted States and from the leading citizens of the states and territories comprising their own or ganizations. Welcomed by City and 6tate. Reserrlns for the succeeding days of the congress the spirited debates promised on the conservation of nat ural resources and kindred topics, the visitors this morning basked In the warmth of a welcome extended by practically every official representa tive of the state and city honored by their coming, and this afternoon re reived wttii enthusiastic delight the of nilal assurances of two speakers who promised a splendid fulfillment of Western hopes and Western ideals. Not the l-;ast striking feature of the session was the astonishment ex pressed by delegates who witnessed for the first time the rapid rebuldlng of Sen FrancUco. A dosen speakers de clared that the marvelous restoration of the city destroyed less than three years ago would prove the Inspiration of the congress. Sending Immigrants to West. Attributing his presence to the in terest felt by 1'resident Koosevelt in the Western states. Assistant Secre tary of Commerce and Labor William R Wheeler, the first speaker of the afternoon session, devoted the greater part of his address to Immigration. In part he said: I sm here as a manifestation of the Fr0tdent'B good will and of the hearty In terest ha takes In your work, and I wish to ak up a little of your time with the sub ject o( Immigration. I reailsc the difficulties the West has encountered in a lack of the hewers of wood and the drawers of water. Of the vast wave of Immigration breaking -on the At lantic t'oast you receive but a filmy spray. In attempting to prevent congestion In tha Kesl the Department of Commerce and Labor is simultaneously endeavoring to di vert a part of this surplus to your regions. Through Intelligence bureaus established In the Kaatero territory -we have succeeded ad mirably in tlie attempt to bring the em ploer and the emplo.ve together and. when the machinery is a little more firmly estab lished, we will extend this system, operated bv personal correspondence with farmers and business men, to the Western States. The completion of the Panama Canal will opea to you the widest avenues of European Immigration. It will be ready sooner than you expect. Through this me dium there Is a certainty that a great flow of Incoming Immigration will be diverted to the tlulf states and the Pacific Coast, and I think it la time you were preparing to recele it. - John Harrett, director of the Interna tional Hiireau of American Republics, spoke at length on the lack of enter prise indicated by balances of trade ex isting between the I'nlted States and the countries of Central and South America, lie said: Cultivate Latin-American Trade. There Is danger of Irreparable injury to the commercial Interests of these Western Plates unless realisation of the opportunities presented by these republics comes at once. The countries of Europe, China and Japan are dolnr more now to get in touch with the coasts of South America than is the I'nlted tilates. They realise that the com pletion of the Panama Canal will be the opportunity of opportunltiea te the United States, and they hope, by sending their strongest diplomatic and commercial repre sentatives to these Southern countries, to become so strongly entrenched that It will be Impossible to oust them when we awak. It is rlrmlnal to exploit the United Stales In the Orient at the expense of our trade with I.atln-Amerlca- If the United States had spent In Latin-America one-twentieth of the amount disbursed In strengthening Oriental trade, the relations would have been 21 times as great as they have peeji. You may not know that the 0.000.000 people of Argentine carry more of our trade than do the S0.0O0.OOO or the 100.0OO.O" of Japan or Chins. Hraall spent J2J.0O0.0O0 f.r Irrigation before this country Inaugurat ed Its policy and annually appropriates more for that purpose than does this country. The last speech of the afternoon was by J. F. Morgan, of the Honolulu Cham ber of Commerce, who. heading a dele gation of ten from the Hawaiian Islands, came to thank the congress for its sup port In obtaining an appropriation for Pearl Harbor.

Taft: "I beg to send my greetings and good wishes to the Trans-Mississippi Commercial Congress and hope the meeting will be productive of much good. -WILLIAM H. TAFT." President Case's Speech. The first session closed with the ad dress of J. B. Case, president of the con gress, who reviewed the subjects to come before the congress. He declared that the reclamation work of the government rivaled the Panama Canal in magnitude and expressed the opinion that the gov ernment would hasten the settlement of unoccupied land and establish large dry homesteads and small Irrigated ones: He urged co-operation between the Recla mation Sen-ice and companies operating under the Carey act. and that title to Irrigated land be granted as a result of cultivation and use rather than length of time. He dwelt on the importance of Improving the Missouri and lower Arkan sas rivers and condemned legislation hos tile to railroads. OVERWORK AXD COLD TOO 311X11 TOR HIM. Under Care of Physician and Trained Xurse, but Illness Xot Thought to Be Serious. CHICAGO, Oct. . Norman E. Mack, chairman of the Democratic National committee, cojlapsed tonight as a re sult of fatigue and a severe cold, and Is under the care of a physician and a trained nurse. The illness of Mr. Mack came sud denly and alarmed fellow members of the Democratic committee. Dr. Ham mond, of the Auditorium Hotel, was summoned and he said that Mr. Mack was suffering from overwork and nerv ous exhaustion. He did not believe that the illness was serious and inti mated that the patient would be able to resume his duties In a few days. Chairman Mack arrived in Chicago from New York yesterday afternoon. BUFFALO. N. T.. Oct. 6. Mrs. Nor man E. Mack learned of her husband's Illness late tonight. After conferring with friends tn Chicago by long dis tance telephone, Mrs. Mack decided to leave for Chicago at 10:30 tomorrow morning-. OBJECTS TO CERE DALAI LAMA WILL NOT SEE EM PEROR OF CHINA. Audience Canceled Because of Holy One's Balking; at Observances Demanded. PEKIN". Oct. . The scene of the Chinese Tibet comedy has been trans ferred from the provinces to Pfkln. The latest act is the cancellation of the proposed audience of the Dalai Lama,- of Tibet, with the Emperor of China. This was to have occurred today and elaborate preparations for it had been made. The Dalai Lama had been brought into the capital for the meeting, but he firmly resisted the coaching of the Chi nese officials in the ceremony that China wanted observed at the auspices, and his attitude finally made any meeting impos sible. Instead of conferring with the Emperor, the Dalai Lama has been engaged in granting audiences to the diplomatic rep resentatives in Pekln and he Is described by those who have seen him as lacking in intelligence and character. There is no love lost between the citr officers and the followers of the ruler of Tibet. The head priest of the Dalai Lama has bad several encounters with the officials who are prone to call him uncomplimentary names to his face. PARALYTIC BOARDS TRAIN Missing Pendleton Youth Said to Be Headed for Portland. PENDLETON", Or.. Oct. S. (Special.) Will Boner, the partially paralyzed young man who disappeared from this city yesterday morning" under rather mysterious circumstances, is making his way toward Portland, according to Information received by the police to day. It was learned that he had walked to Barnhart station. 10 miles west of here, and there boarded a freight train at 6 o'clock last evening. The frantic father hopes to overtake his son be fore the latter reaches Portland, It Is believed the young man Is par tially demented as well aa paralysed. Found Dead in Bed. Mrs. Xstttie Thompson was found dead In her bed. at 112 Twelfth street, at 1:30 o'clock this morning. She was un attended when ahe died and passed away apparently without a struggle. Mrs. Thompson was 30 years old and her husband is In Walla Walla. He has been communicated with and will probab ly arrive today. The woman has been quite ill for some time and was considered sufficiently recovered to leave tha hos pital about a month ago- 'S ARE CARRIED OUT Unfortunate Women Driven Away From Tenderloin District. NO -ARRESTS NECESSARY Some Move to Residence Sections, Others to Roomlng-Houses. None Resists Edict to Leave Haunts. The women of the tenderloin have obeyed the command of the police to "move on." They have abandoned the parlor houses and dives of the North End, and some of them have sought shelter' in different parts of the city. Perhaps SO of the women, or 25 per cent of the total number, have departed from the city. Others remained, some finding accommodations In uptown apartment-houses, others in flats and dwelling-houses In localities where their presence, if known, might cause a storm of protest. It is said that sev eral of the ex-inmates of one of the parlor houses hava secured a flat in exclusive Irvlngton, and have estab lished their residence there. Indeed, the big crusade for the eradi cation of the social evil has so far re sulted in, something that does not re semble very closely Mayor Lane's an nounced policy. Houses and , resorts that were openly known as bagnios have closed, by order of the police. Rooming-houses, of doubtful character, on the other hand, and even thoroughly respectable hotels, have new feminine guests. Several of the unfortunates who had succeeded In saving a portion of their earnings have rented rooming houses and profess to have determined to engage in a legitimate business for themselves. Various Rumors Afloat, Various rumors have been started concerning the probable location of the women. It Is stated by some that they will gradually assemble at a certain point outside the city limits within easy access of the city. However, little credence is attached to these reports. Chief Grltsmacher was decidedly averse yesterday to discussing his plans for carrying out Mayor Lane's orders. His force of men who have been se lected for that work has not been thor oughly organized, and did nothing yes terday except to visit the various houses in what was formerly known as the restricted district. Strangejy enough. Tom Kay. whose previous rec ord made him the legitimate heir to the command of the angel brigade, was sidetracked and will have no part In di recting raids or in carrying out the Mayor's orders. The omission of his name from the list has given rise to many surmises in police circles.-. It is hinted that per haps Mayor Lane may not intend a really active crusade to drive the women out. and for that reason failed to' include Kay in the list selected to execute his orders. Detective Baty In Charge. Detective Captain Baty, whose dis cretion and ability have never been doubted, is in charge of the special de tail. He declared yesterday that the women would leave the city gradually and quietly. However, every effort will be made to avoid taking them to jail, he added. "As a matter of fact," he said, "they may remain- in Portland as long as they please so long as they behave themselves. They have left the tender loin district and have gone to their homes. We can't remove them from their homes." Captain Baty's evident plan of ac tion is not according to the advertised intention of Mayor Lane to rid the city of these women. It Is also eald that proprietresses of the various houses may remain in their homes so long as no other women are permitted to reside there. Tf u-n a At an earlv hour Yesterday morning that the unfortunates began ( to leave their haunts. There were no evictions, for all the women left before the arrival of a detail of police which was sent out to Inspect the district. Large crowds of curious men lined the streets of the district until an early hour yesterday morning and many thronged the streets during the day. However, they were disappointed if they hoped to see any unusual oc currences, for the women departed early and the police made their tour of inspection late in the afternoon. Few of the women have taken ad vantage of the offer to provide them with transportation and expenses to any city In the United States to which they may desire to go. Offers have also been made to send any of the 111 or ailing unfortunates to tha hospitals, where accommodations for them have already been provided. The offers are made by thoroughly practical persons who will use no coercive methods at reformation. The place where such aid is to be provided has been quietly cir culated through the district and it la believed that most of tne unfortunates know of the otfer. ALL HIS DOLLARS CLEAN SIBLEY ANSWERS CHARGE OF BEING STANDARD OILY. Xo Secret He Has Been Associated With Archbold Asks Hearst to ' Publish AH Letters. NEW TORK. Oct. 6. Ex-Congressman Joseph C. Sibley, of Pennsylvania, tonight made public a letter in connec tion with references made to him in a recent speech of Wllltam R. Hearst. Mr. Sibley says that for thirty years he has been more or less closely asso ciated in business with John D. Arch bold. of tha Standard Oil Company, and has written and talked to him with all the freedom and frankness due to a busi ness associate and personal friend. In this association there was nothing dis honorable to him as a public man. No secret was ever made of his con nection with Standard Oil. says Mr. Sib ley, that fact being known to three pres idents of the I'nlted States, members of the House and Senate and to his con stituents. Giving his are as f-S. Mr. Sibley says that when 60 years old he retired from all active business pursuits, and adds: "No man has aver charged me at any MAYOR ORDERS time or dace with having a dishonor able dollar in my possession." He has this to say about Mr. Hearst: "'Mr. Hearst has copies. I believe, of every letter written by me to Mr. Arch bold from 1900 to very nearly the close of my term of public service. I there fore request that he will do me the Jus tice to publish them one and all in their entirety and in their orderly and natural sequence, giving dates of letters and not separating text from context.'" John D. Archbold also requested that Mr. Hearst give these letters to the press. Portland Presbytery Meets. At the meeting last night, of the Port land Presbytery, Rev. W. S. Holt and Rev. A. J. Montgomery were the prin cipal speakers. The meetings yesterday were under the direction "of Dr. 'William Hiram Foulkea. AT THE HOTELS. Hotel Portland J. M. Anderson. Tacoma; J. B.
