RECALLS OLD PREDICTION Says He Told President Koosevelt That He Was Inviting Trouble With Passage or Interstate Commerce Law. NEW YORK. Dee. 1. An Impromp tu speech of a breezy nature by E. H. Harriman. in which the railroad man took exception to the statements that lia been made by preceding speakers of the evening and referred pointedly to what he declared was the fulfill ment of a prediction he had made to the President of the United States three years ago was the feature of the prosperity dinner of the Economic Club at the Hotel Astor last night. - Mr. Harriman mane a late entry Into the speaker's "pulpit." responding to the Invitation of the toastmaster after the delivery of the formal address. Ieclaring that he hesitated to speak even to an economic organization. Mr. Harriman went on: Is Economic Subject. "I'm a sort ot an economic subject myself, an economfc morsel, a bone of contention. I've been pursued by the pack and the scent is getting pretty slim. I don't intend to do" anything to renew It. I wish I were able to say, free to say. what I would like to you, but I am not yet freed from a situa tion that prevents my speaking my mind to you fully. "While my mental and moral being were being Investigated." continued Mr. Harriman. "I thought that my physical being required some atten tion, bo I turned myself over to the care of- the physicians. I was dis charged yesterday with the happy as surance that there was nothing the matter with me; that I had only been taking good care of myself. I was told to go out and eat what I pleased and go where I pleased.. Perhaps when the time comes I'll talk as I want to talk, as I'd like to talk, but that time is not here yet. Some Things Xot Kight. "Some things that have been said here tonight are not right and some day you will know they're not righf. Surely you'll know It. I've tried to do things satisfactorily in a lasting way, and to give right transportation. I've held many confabs with representa tives of the Government, and I've heard some of them agree that what they proposed was not right. I told the President of the United States three years ago that in pussing the present -interstate commerce act without changing the Sherman act he was In viting a great deal of trouble. Now he will probably recommend at least I think that he will recommend the very thing which I suggested. "There are two things that menace the prosperity of the country Idle money and Idle labor. The one is as mis chievous as the other. It should be the object of the Government to create a condition whereby each may be used both properly and fairly." "The outlook for prosperity," was the general topic for discussion at the din ner. Paul Morton. ex-Secretary of the Navy; Cyrus H. McCormlck, the well known manufacturer. and President Nicholas Murray Butler, of Columbia University, being among the guests and speakers. .The tone of the addresses was markedly' optimistic, the keynote being set by Paul Morton In his speech insist ing that tiie chief menace to the coun try was that it might travel too rapidly long the path of prosperity. "We are sure to meet with success, he declared, "If we keep our feet In touch with the earth and do not get the "speed craze. Nothing can be gained by exaggerating our prosperity." Mr. McCormick testified to the pros perity of the farmer, and President But ler and Augustus Thomas to the many encouraging economic signs of the times. 'KEFTSES TO RESTORE GRAYS HARBOR'S OLD RATES. Aberdeen Business Men Will Decide Today on Definite Action to Continue Fight. ABERDEEN, Wash., Dec. 1. (Spe cial. ) Peaceful eforts with tl North ern Pacific Railway Company for re tention of terminal rates on Gray'a Harbor have been exhausted and noth ing remains but to appeal to the Inter state Commerce Commission. The Gray's Harbor committee met the two traffic managers Sunday at Tacoma and went over the entire subJectN Mr. Hanaford was inclined to lay the blame for the action of the railroad on the interstate commerce law. He said the decision In the Spokane case laid particular stress on the long and short haul clause, and only permttfed the long haul at terminal rates where actual competition by water was met. When asked about Olympla, Astoria and Vancouver being allowed the rates, lie replied that Astoria has actual water competition by steamer plying to Portland, and that Vancouver was re gal ded much as a switching yard for the port of Portland. As to Olympla, he is quoted as admitting that It was given the rate for "political reasons. It being the state capital and the head quarters of the Railroad Commission. He said water-hauledf freight could be lightered to Olympla for 11.50 a ton. The subcommlttece at the Tacoma conference will report to the general committee tomorrow. when a definite line of action will be determined. It Is probable that the Idea of seeking a court Injunction will be abandoned and a formal complaint filed with the In terstate Commission. LURES VICTIM TO SUBURB Seattle Man Sandbagged and Shot in Peculiar Manner. SEATTLE. Wash.. Dec. 1 One of the strangest crimes ever committed In this city occurred tonight when Prank At wood. owner of tlie Glole Art IVnipany. was lured to a house In the suburbs by a man who proposed to purchase a large tract of yruperty and tUsrs Dot ouiy as sailed with sandbags, but shot at six times, only one allot, however, being effec tive. Several days ago a man called Mr. At wood up on the telephone and said that having arrived from the East he wished to purchase some of his property. He said he had no time to talk to him then, but would meet him on his return from Portland. The same man called tonight and said that owing to an Injury a guide would mest him at the car. By devious routes Atwood was taken to a house dimly lighted and asked to step Into the dining-room after removing his coat. As he did so he was knocked down, struck a number of blows and fired at. but owing to the door being open, made his way during the fusillade to the door and got to the next house. The police are baffled. Atwood received a shot In the knee, which Is not serious. II. P. TO WILL START LIXE TO ABKli DEEX WITHIN' OC DAYS. Harriman Agent Makes Announce ment Railroad Activity In Harbor Country. ABERDEEN, Wash., Dec. 1. (Spe cial.) Within SO days a large crew of men will be set to work on this end of the Grays Harbor & Puget Sound (Union Pacific) right of way throwing up dirt for the grade and preparing the road way. Thisi la the statement made this afternoon by W. J. Patterson, general manager on the Harbor for the Union Pacific. He added: "I am In a position to say this from the very best authority. The people of Gray's Harbor will no longer be in doubt as to the probable Intention of the Union Pacific. This action has been brought about by the urgent demand of certain large business interests which have been showing the Union Pacific how great the need is to get cars sufficient to do business." Several corps of engineers in the em ploy of the Northern Pacific left this morning for the Queets country and the district that lies between. They are pre pared for a long stay. The entire route from Moclips to the Straits is to be gone over thoroughly, and the engineers ex pect to be busy until early In the Spring. The St. Paul Railway engineers, who are also in that section of country, are said to be planning a route more in the line of a logging road than a direct one. in order to reach some of the big timber belts of that section. In which the St. Paul Is Interested with other concerns. It is the belief of the engineers that the entire northern section is to be the scene of some big railroad undertakings within the next six months. TIMBER SHARKS ME HIT MUST PAY VALUES FOR LAXD UNDER STOXE ACT Government Will Fix Value Within Nine Months Ruling Dora Not Affect Old Entries. OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Dec. 1. Beginning December 1, unreserved public timber lands entered under the timber and stone act must be paid for at its appraised value and will no longer be sold for a flat rate of $2.50 per acre. Secretary Garfield today pro mulgated a regulation to this effect, bas ing It upon the language of the law, which says that timber land shall bo sold "for minimum price of J2.50 per acre." Garfield holds that if 12.50 Is the minimum price, a greater amount can legally be charged for valuable timber lands. Under the new regulation a person da pirlng to make a timber entry must file his application, accompanying It by an affidavit stating that he has been per sonally upon the land and must submit his own estimate as to the amount of timber and Its value and value of land when cleared. These filings will give him a preference right to the land. Within nine months the Government will undertake to make Its own appraisal and. when this is done, the applicant can rave the land at the Government's price, but his preference right will be forfeited if he falls to make payment within 30 days after the Interior Department com pletes its appraisal. Whenever the Gov ernment falls to complete appraisnl with in nine months, the applicant can secure the land by making payment at his own appraised valuation. Where the Govern ment's appraisal Is considered too high the land can be reappraised at the ex pense of applicant. In no Instance will timber land be sold for less than J2.60 per acre. No entry man can cut timber during the time ap praisal Is being made, nor before he re ceives a patent from the Government. I.ast Winter Secretary Garfield endea vored to persuade Congress to amend the timber and stone act so as to provide for the disposal of timber land at appraised value. When Congress failed to act it was announced that the Secretray would do by regulation what Congress had failed to do by legislation. Today's order is the carrying out of that threat. Gar field's order Is not retroactive. It does not affect any entry heretofore made. CASTRO IS iT WELCOME FRENCH GOVERNMENT DOES NOT WANT PRESIDENT. V 111 Not Be Permitted to Visit Paris Because of French Minister From Caracas. PARIS. Dec. 1. The French gov ernment Is giving consideration to the question as to how President Castro, of Venezuela, shall be treated on his arrival at Bordeaux. After the Ig nominious fashion in which the French Minister was expelled from Caracas, the government feels that it would be justified In refusng to allow the Pres ident of Venezuela and aides to land. President Castro Is reported to be ill and humanitarian considerations pre vent the government from taking such a course. , It is probable, therefore, that a port official will be designated - to board the steamer Guadelupe and ascertain his intentions. If be desires to be treated at Bordeaux he will be allowed to remain there; If at Berlin he will be given a passport across France, via Lons. to the Swiss frontier. But in no case will he be permitted to come to Paris. President Castro's statement at Basse Terre. which he Is reported to have made to Interviewers yesterday, to the effect that he was proceeding to France to settle a diplomatic mat ter was the first intimation the French government had that he had any in tention of trying to settle the Vene zuelan, difficulty with this country.

Country Life Commission Hears Conflicting Opinions Great Volume of Suggestions. SACRAMENTO, Dec. 1. According to two of its -representatives the Country Life Commission held In Sacramento to day the most profitable session since It left Dallas, Texas. The labor question received considerable attention and one of the larger farmers, incensed - at the worthlessness of migra tory white laborers, declared the only so lution of the problem was to allow from 10.000 to 50.000 "energetic young Chinese to enter the country each year." Another declared himself drastically opposed to Asiatic labor, and said the gradual division of larger farms into smaller holdings would solve the prob lem. "The greatest farmers' movement for improved conditions upon the farm ever experienced In this or any other country will be witnessed throughout the United States during the next five days," said Professor L. H. Bailey, chairman of the Commission, today. He referred to the farmers" meetings that will be held in schoolhouses, country stores, churches and other places where farmers congre gate) throughout the United States In ac cordance with the suggestions' lately made by the President. President Koosevelt. in a recent letter to Professor Bailey, asked that the farm ers get together in their schoolhouses or other convenient places, prior to Decem ber 5, and discuss the needs of the coun try and of themselves and transmit to the Commission on Country Life the con sensus of their discussions. "The public interest in the work of the Commission," continued Dr. Bailey, "Is evidenced by the mass of corres pondence already accumulated at the of fices of the Commission In Washington. We have received to this date more than 100.000 letters enclosing answers to queries sent out some weeks ago. These are now being tabulated by the Census Bureau In order that the Commission, when it goes into session at Washington, may have -the Information and advice con centrated in a form that renders It easily available for its use." BUREAU WILL OPEN SOON Free City Employment Office Nearly Heady. Portland's free employment office will be opened In the near future In the City Hall. Mayor Lane will appoint a secre tary fbr the establishment soon, from a list submitted by -the commission, and it w-111 be possible for people to secure situa tions freo- of cost before long by applying to the office, which will be located on the first floor of the building.' This was the result of a meeting of the Commissioners, held yesterday afternoon. The Coinmlsgloners, of whom Council man Rushlight is chairman, have recom mended John A. Carr, Paulinus Mc Donald. Richard Helmback and Mrs. A. Grant for the position of secretary, and from these Mayor Lane will select one. The secretary will take charge of the office, but it is regarded as certain that more help will be necessary, and it is likely that the Council will soon make provision for at least one and perhaps two assistants. It Is also likely that the salary of the secretary will be Increased from $75 a month to JI00 a'month. There was some discussion as to the best location for the office, but it was finally decided that it would be best to establish it In a room formerly used by the Water Board, on the first floor of the City Hall. Since It became known that the office would be opened, scores of peo ple have called at the Hall, seeking em ployment. Much is said to depend upon the ability of the secretary, and upon his actions after taking charge. It is the Idea of the Commissioners that one man will be requl"ed to operate the office and that another man will be needed to work on the outside. It will be necessary for Borne one to visit the offices, manufac turlng establishments and the various camps and mills about the coufHry to secure contracts for workers. This makes it virtually certain that two men will be employed to carry on the work, and it is said that It may become necessary to employ a woman to care for the women applicants for positions. Arrangements have been made wnn ine i. w . cj. a through Mrs. Lola O. Baldwin, to secure work for women who call at that place for situations. It Is confidently believed by the Com missioners and many others that the establishment of a free employment office In Portland will prove of great benefit to wage-earners.

T CHARITIES SOCIETY OFh.5 FIGHT ON SCOCRGE. Every Contrivance Known to Med ical Science Displayed for Bene fit of Observers. NEW YORK, Dec. 1. The Charity Or ganization Society began last night Its campaign of education in curing and preventing tuberculosis with a mam moth exhibition at the Museum ot Natural History, formally opened by Mayor McClellan. .This exhibition, to which 60,000 feet of floor space is de voted for the displays from every state in the Union and from IS loreign coun tries. Is but part of the campaign. Advertising and educational posters have been placed by nunoreas or. thousands through Greater New York, and more than 1,000.000 leafletts are being circulated. '. Object to lgures. Some objection has been made to the realistic character of many of the fig ures and tenement-room reproductions at the museum and to the illustrative paintings, but those in charge explain that experience has shown the neces sity of impressing vividly the serious ness of the disease against which they are fighting. A great crowd visited the exhibition yesterday and officials estimate that sev eral hundred thousand will come be fore January 15, when It closes. By charts and models virtually every phase of the disease, fighting methods here and abroad are shown, rrom those employed in the most congested tenement and hovel districts of this city and London to a New England country village and in the pleasant districts of Germany. The models form the most fascinat ing part of the exhibit. They vary from the realistic, disease-wracked, deadly pallor of the lay figures and the dirt and vermin-filled miniatures of East Side rookeries to those of Adi rondack tuberculosis camps, with their spotless cleanliness and opportunities for pure air and of such foreign sani tariums as that maintained by Berlin, covering 1500 acres pf pine forests and ecommodating 1200 patients.
