HEADQUARTERS TO

Vancouver to Win in
Army Controversy.
SENATORS CONFER WITH MAUS
Change Would Be Expensive
and Unnecessary,
OREGON, WILL GET SHARE
Members of Irrigation Committee
Unanimous in Opinion That the
Projects in This 'state
Should Be Expedited.
Whatever may be the outcome, of the
visit- of the United States Senate com
mute on Irrigation to the Pacific Coast,
It has at least brought definite assurance
that the Army division headquarters will
be retained at Vancouver - Barracks for
this vear. if not permanently. The en
tire Senatorial committee, together with
a number of Portland people, visited Van
couver Barracks yesterday afternoon and
held a consultation with General Maus,
at which this matter was the chief topic
of discussion. Senator Warren, of Wyo
ming, who is a member of the Irriga
tion committee. Is also the chairman of
the United States Senate committee on
military affairs and it was on this ac
count that the visit held such signifi
cance. t
Mans Wants No Change.
Senator Warren outlined the policy of
the Administration to General Maus, In
which be showed that It would be practi
cally impossible for any change to be
made. While General Maus expressed
himself as thoroughly satisfied with con
ditions at Vancouver, he asked that the
department notify him as soon as possible
that the headquarters would be either
moved or changed, so that the officers
on his staff would be able to make defi
nite arrangements about bringing their
families to Vancouver, fixing up their
homes, etc. He Bhowed also the Inad
equate equipment" in the way of build
ings used for the headquarters and
asked If possible that appropriation be
made for new structures for headquar
ters. In explaining the situation to General
Maus. which he later reiterated In an
Interview, Senator Warren said:
Expenses Must Be Cut.
"The President has Issued . a definite
request to the various departments to cut
the estimates this year some $30,000,000
on the military establishment of the
country, and this will necessitate a cut-tins-
awav of 810.000.000 or more from the
annual Army appropriation. It will be
necessary. If we obey his mandate, to
hold the expenditures to the actual ne
cessities. The appropriations for food,
clothing, salaries and other actual neces
saries cannot be cut, so the entire re
duction will have to be made in the ap
propriations for buildings, removals and
the like. This will have to be very
small.
"Now even If the headquarters were
moved to Portland or Seattle, buildings
would have to be rented there and
rfnncluded on Pace 10.) I

MANY LOVE ROOSEVELT
Adherents of His Policies Might Em
barrass Taft if He Came West
With Breach Still Open
Between Officials.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. L (Spe
cial.) President Taft Is understood here
to be desirous of settling the Balllnger-
Pinchot row before he starts on his West
ern trip, September 16. The reasons for
this eagerness to cdnclude the con
troversy In the Inner circle are many, but
one df the influences said to be actuat
ing all concerned is the fact that the Far
West has taken . radical sides and em
barrassing questions may be propounded
to the President on his trip unless the
whole subject is settled.
Roosevelt Shouters Many.
Men In touch with the progress of the
war between Secretary Balllnger and For
ester Pinchot are authority for the state
ment today that the McHarg interview,
attacking the Roosevelt policies of con
servationv may prove embarrassing to the
President on his Western trip, for the
reason that the Roosevelt shouters are
many In that section and are loyal to
their Idol. Mr. Balllnger, who is sched
uled to accompany President Taft on his
Pacific Coast tour. Is, of course, a cen
tral figure In the row, and his mere
presence before a Western crowd, with
the . conservation quarrel not settled,
might prove unfortunate, say Western in
formants. .
Conservation Live Topic'
Mr. Taft's announced Intention of dis
cussing the tariff on his trip is accepted
here as logical, but the conservation dif
ficulty, ' It is predicted, will be found by
the President to be the liveliest topic he
can discuss in the mountain and Pacific
Coast states. '
With this situation confronting him,
knowledge of which undoubtedly has been
conveyed to the President, It is Relieved
here that every effort will be made to
pass finally upon the Glavis charges
against the Interior Department officials
respecting the administration of Alaska
coal land claims before the President goes
West. .

he most popular leaders of Pasadena
society. She is owner or tne vanaer
voort block and other property scattered

a honeymoon of a month's duration, after
which they will make their home here.
FINDS BOY, BUT INSANE
Sad Ending of Mother's Search for
Wandering Son.
STOCKTON. Cal.. Sept. 1. (Special.)
One of the most pitiful cases local officials
have handled in many months came to
their notice today when a 16-year-old boy
named Hubert Smith became violently
insane on the Southern Pacific train be
tween Sacramento and this city and had
to be taken to the detention hospital.
Back of the case is a sad story. The
youth left his home in Los Angeles a
year ago and wandered over the country
in an effort to see the world. He lost
an arm and In some scrape was sent
to a reform school in Oregon. The
mother mortgaged her furniture to secure
money to take the youth home. She is
heart-broken over the sand ending of
the trip.
FLOUR TAKES A BIG DROP
North Yakima Asks 40 Cents for Old
and 80 for .New.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Sept. 1.
(Special.) After standing at fancy
prices for a long time, local wheat
flour took a drop today of 40 cents a
barrel for old flour and SO cents a bar
rel for new flour, sack prices falling In
proportion. The old crop flour is now
quoted at $1.65 and new wheat flour
at $1.55. The only cause assigned for
the drop by Alex Miller, of the Yakima
Milling Company, is that farmers are
prosperous and tired of holding stock.
Little new wheat.has yet reached the
mill, farmers being too busy harvesting
to ship grain in, but large quantltk-s
are soon expected. Coincident with
the price of flour the grain prices
dropped.

Hill's 62-Hour Mail Train Precipi
tates Trouble Among Western
Railroads Vast Expenditures
Preceded Running Contest.
CHICAGO. Sept. 1. (Bpeclal.)-Owlng
to the Burlington's action in reducing the
running time of its passenger flyer be
tween Chicago and Denver by two hours
and offering to put on a fast mail train
between Chicago and Puget Sound to run
the distance in 62 hours, all the train
schedules between Middle West points
and the West and Northwest are likely
to undergo material changes.
. The Northwestern and the Union Pa
cific have already decided to meet the
Burlington's Denver time and there is a
possibility that these roads will try to
make a further cut in the schedule. The
Rook Island, which has a somewhat
longer route to Denver than the Burling
ton, Is In doubt what It will do.
According to a statement issued today
by the Burlington management, the West
ern roads got together and agreed to
lengthen the schedules, the agreement be
ing entered Into in June, 1907. At that
time the railroads were congested with
the greatest tonnage in their history and
most of them were doing extensive re
building, which made fast time impossi
ble, pwing to their inability to maintain
fast schedules, the roads were subjected
to a good deal of criticism.
Not Late for 355 Days.
Before deciding to return to the old
schedule, the Burlington made a record
of running its Denver trains on time
355 consecutive days. Greater speed, the
statement sets forth, has been made pos
sible by the expenditure of $22,000,000 on
track alone, by the expenditure of $4,500,
000 in building new bridges and rein
forcing old ones and by an expenditure of
$JS7,000 in additional block signals.
In connection with the new mall train
which the Hill lines wish to Inaugurate,
It Is understood that the move has pre
cipitated a bitter fight between those
lines and the St. Paul road.
