THE MORXIXG OREGONIAX, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1909. 14 HARRIMAN PLAGES BALLINGER Expects New Secretary to Ap prove Maps for Road Up Deschutes. ARFIELD ALWAYS HOSTILE riioujrht His Interest in Reclamation Projects Prevented Him From Giving Aid to Xew Kail roads In Arid Regions. Hope is expressed by Harriman ofti- cials that the new Secretary of the Inte rior, R. A. Ballinger, will aid the con- itructlon of the Deschutes Railroad oy the approval of right-of-way maps up the Deschutes River from Its mouth. To tlate, these maps have been denied ap proval by the Secretary of the Interior, and further steps to secure their being filed in the General Land Office will not be taken until the new Secretary is in ducted into offire. It is felt that Secretary Garfield was hostile to the railroad project. Whether this was because of his well-known sup port of irrigation projects and reclama tion of arid lands in preference to rail road lines, whenever the two came into conflict. Is not known. The chief obstacle to approval of the maps is the Deschutes River Power & Development ompmi. which claims rights along the stream in order to develop reclamation schemes on the lands adjoining- This project was to develop water power in the rapid stretches of the river and pump water to the higher and dry lands along the river by the power thus generated. Another obstacle that has hindered the .building of the Central Oregon road by ! the Harriman people is the Oregon Trunk ILine. whose surveys up the Deschutes i River coincide at some points with the ! Harriman surveys. A singular feature of the case is that R. A. Ballinger was the attorney who aided in the Incorpora tion of the Oregon Trunk Line and helped -put it on its feet as a railroad company. Tiie Deschutes Railroad Com pany, the Harriman corporation, now expects favorable action from the same Sir. Ballinger, after he takes his new of fice. The Deschutes River Power & Develop ment Company is backed by Malcolm Moody. It is hinted that his influence with the Interior Department was suf ficient to block approval of the Harri man maps because they conflicted with his own project for the development of the Deschutes water power. Mr. Moody, it is said, is a friend of Secretary Garfield, and is on excellent terms with Clifford pinchot. It is said that his standing with these officials was sufficient to pnstpnne the approval of the maps filed by the Harriman line and that this explains the long-continued delay in acting favorably on the surveys submit ted by the Deschutes Railroad Company. However this may be, the Harriman people expect more from the new Admin istration, apparently, than they got from the. last, for they will again prefer their claim after Secretary Ballinger is in of fice. "WILL- MAP OVT XEW ROADS W. A. White Coming to Outline Ore gon Klcctrlc Projects. W. A. White, director of the Oregon Electric Railway Company, and mem ber of the executive board. Is expected to arrive in Portland from. New York not later than the middle of next month to look over contemplated Im provements for the approaching season. Mr. White is a member of the banking firm of A. M. & W. A. White, of New York City, which is one of the three banking houses that are behind the Oregon Electric and are financing It. The others are Moffatt & White and C. M. Pratt & Co. Mr. White Is well acquainted with this section of the country and is quite familiar with the extensive plans for additional lines that the Oregon Electric contemplates. He will go over details with General Man ager Talbot and make recommenda tions to the board as to what new con struction shall he accomplished during ine coming year. First Conviction Is Reported. The first case known to local railroad officials In which the Interstate Com merce Commission has prosecuted ship pers for misrepresenting the character Cf freight shipped has Just been reported to traffic officials of the transcontinental llne3 reaching Portland. The case in question occurred In New York and the offending shipper billed high-class dry goods as calico, securing a low rate on the shipment In this manner, when the gnods should have paid a nigh rate in accordance with the freight tariffs. In dictment of the guilty firm was followed by prosecution by the Interstate Com merce Commission and the shipper was fined $1000 on each of two counts. It Is believed by railroads here that the case will serve as a warning to other shippers who might use this ruse In securing low freight rates. Plans for Vnited Development. President T. L. Greenough, of. the Vnited Railways Company, Is in Portland for a few days looking over the local property. He made an Inspection trip over the line yesterday, and while here will look after the organization of tha various departments, issuance of tariffs and other details. Pending the carrying out of plans the United has for the development of power projects of Its own, electricity will be purchased from the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company. EVANS TO LECTURE HERE Admiral Will Appear Tnder Aus pices of Cqnimcrclal Club. Rear-Admiral Robley D. Evans will lecture at the Armory under the auspices of the v-ommercial Club on the night of March 31. His subject will be, "From Hampton Roads to San Francisco In Command of the Atlantic Fleet." Mrs. Evans accompanies her husband on the trip, and while In Portland the noted sea fighter will be entertained by prominent people. Efforts were made through Admiral .Evans' manager by a number of local organizations to secure the lecturer and have the address made under their aus pices, but the Commercial Club was suc cessful. Colonel C. E. McDonell will have charge of the decorations, seating and lighting of the Armory. Admiral Evans will lecture at Spokane March 18 under the auspices of the 150.000 Club. He will appear one. week later In Seattle and will then make his appear ance in Portland. The noted Admiral, who has turned lecturer since his retirement from active service. Is 62 years old and his health is said to be better now than at any time since he started on the memorable cruise of the Atlantic fleet. As a speaker, he is said to resemble Governor Hughes, of New. York, In his direct and effective way. "Why talk around a thing." he is quoted as saying, "when time is so short and there Is so much of vital Interest In the subject Itself?" Admiral Evans has three daughters and one son. Two of his daughters are married. RESIGNS, BUT DISCHARGED Commissioner Greene Ousts Officer Olaud Nelson. Despite the fact that he had resigned from the police force, the Police Com missioners formally discharged Patrol man Olaus Nelson yesterday afternoon.

PORT NOW ON EVEN TERMS Xo Further Obstacles Presented to Stay Portland From Competing for Quartermaster Supplies Required at Stations. Part of the cargo of the British steamship Boveric, which yesterday cleared for Manila and Shanghai, is TONIGHT AT CONCERT GIVEN 1,757,000 feet of lumber shipped from the Eastern & Western Lumber Com pany, consigned to the Chief Quarter master of the United States Army at the depot of Manila. The value of the shipment given on the manifest is $22, 000. This marks the initial shipment of lumber for the Philippine Army depot since the matter of including Portland as a port of purchase for this char acter of supplies was taken up before the War Department at Washington. For a long time lumber manufactur ers of Portland felt they were net be ing given an equal opportunity with San Francisco and the Sound In fur nishing lumber to the Government. Finally the Chamber of Commerce was shown by F. H. Ransom, manager of the Eastern & Western company, that this city could obtain part of the busi ness If the Chamber would take up the matter with the Quartermaster-General. At first it was passed over by that official, even after being requested by Senators Fulton and Bourne to put Portland on even' terms with other Pa cific Coast ports, the reason assigned being that he had been informed that the Army transports could not safely be brought to this harbor. That objec tion was promptly met and the depart ment furnished with statistical evi dence showing ample depth of water to pass vessels of greater draught than the transports. Then it was explained that trans ports could not economically be sent here after taking part cargo at the other ports. The Chamber then brought out the fact that most of the heavier shipments of lumber for the Govern ment are carried by vessels of the mer chant marine and it is now apparent that further obstacles to Portland re ceiving her Just share of this buslnesi are not likely to be interposed. RtXS IX FOR SnXOK TtEPATRS J. Marlioffcr Breaks Cj Under on Way South With Iumbcr. On her way south from Grays Harbor the steamship J. MarhofTer was partially disabled by reason of her high-pressure cylinder breaking down. Captain Winkal decided to put In to Portland and have the broken machinery repaired. The vessel arrived up yesterday and laid by at the "Willamette Iron Works, where her machinery was maJr and where she will undergo repairs. About a week will be required to put her in shape again. The trip up river was a novel sight to observers, as a vessel lumber laden cus tomarily goes down rather than up stream. Oregon at Fleet Banquet.

To aid the work of the Rivers and Harbors and Navigation Congress, the Portland Chamber of Commerce yester day sent $1000 to that organization, The money was contributed for the pur pose by 20 or 3) publfc-spirited mem bers of the organization. This sum is far more than this state is required to pay toward the work of the congress but Oregon has always been deeply in terested In the development of water ways and is doing more than its share in the work. Oregon's proportionate subscription to the work of the con gress is only $100 and this sum was forwarded some time ago. In fact Oregon commercial bodies are deeply in sympathy with the aims of the congress, and the avowed determi nation to secure from the Government $50,000,000 for river and harbor development- It is due to the work of the organization, It is believed, that both political parties, prior to the last election, put a plank in their platforms declaring for this development. Just how far Oregon's contribution to the movement for waterways devel opment has Influenced the recent large appropriations for improvement of the rivers and harbors of this state cannot be known, but it Is thought by those active In the work that Oregon's prom inent place in the budget just pub lished is due largely to the'interest this state has shown in Its work and the consequent large appropriations.

The muscular coatings of the veins, beinsr deprived of nervous communication and control, become inactive, weaken and relax. The blood vessels expand from the pressure within, the circula tion in the parts becomes sluggish, and fre quent stagnant pools form in little nooks and pockets that constantly enlarge as the relaxa tion continues. The possibility exists that clots may form in these stagnant pools and then pass out into the general circulation.
