VVU TELLS OF HIS CHANCE Prophesies When Panama Canal Is Opened America' Trade AVill Be Greater Than Any Other Na tion's With Orient. I OT5W YORK. Sept. 20. An Impressive farewell vaa given here - tonight to Charles K. Crane, of Chicago, by the ; American Asiatic Association on the eve ' of hi departure to become Minister to China. Seth Low acted as toaatm aster, i and Wa Ting Fang, retiring Chinese Mln ' lster, wu the principal speaker. "You have a great opportunity In ; China," Minister Wn told Crane. , "Your President policy toward China i is eminently fair and Juet and will be ! rewarded many fold. .With the opening of the Panama Canal will come Amer . lea's great chance In Ctilna. The opening ' of the Canal is likely to result in such an Increase of America's commercial power there that her trade will surpass the ' combined trade of all the European countries." Crane Upholds) Taft. Mr. Crane In his address said:' "The National attitude toward China never has been better outlined than In President Taft'a memorable Shanghai speech, when he said: 'China has no territory we long for and can have no prosperity which we grudge her nor any political power nor Independence as an empire Justly exercised which we should - resent. That sentence stamps Mr. Taft as the great friend of China and the author of a helpful construction policy for the whole East. -I supported Grover Cleveland, but that Shanghai speech of President Taft was so ' frank and clear and sounded so much like one of good old Uncle Grovel's that I felt possibly the Government might be safe In the hands of one Republican. Century Is Pacific's. "Th! Is a century that belongs to the 'Pacific With our Western country fill ing up with a fine body of strong men, with our extensive Pacific shore line and our powers of production calling for out Bide markets, we are singularly fortunate ' to have as President one who understands : so well conditions In the Far East, who has so profound a sympathy for the i struggling people of China and one In ' whom those people have so much confi dence. "There Is no mystery about my mission ' to the East. I go to carry out the spirit " of the Shanghai speech. I go with a : profound respect for and confidence In the Chinese people and pride in the work to i be done. Whatever Is for the great pros i perlty and benefit of the Chmeee -that Is the beet thlnjr for us." President Sends Regrets. A letter of regret from President Taft to Seth Low follows: "My dear Mr. Low: I greatly regret that I shall not be able to be present at ; the dinner. Our relations to China and ; the Far East are. of course, of great Im portance and I an- sure that Mr. Crane canifa with him the spirit of friendship toward the great middle kingdom and of Interest in Its development which cor rectly represents the feeling of our Gov ' emment and our people. I earnestly hope that his mission will have a suc cessful issue and I beg you to convey : to him my sincere wishes for a pleasant voyage and patriotic and useful service. Sincerely yours, "WILLIAM H. TAFT." Among others at the dinner were Alton B. Parker, George B. Cortelyou, Lyman Abbott. Attorney-General Wickersham, Nicholas Murray Butler.

She was towed out of her perilous position on August S, by the United States Revenue cutter Thetis, which ten days later again passed her a line and towed her into Point Barrow harbor.

KETGHEL MINING HARD SAYS HE IS PRIMED FOR ONE "COOX-KILLIXG." Disappointed Over Not Being Able to Meet Langford, but Is Con fident of Johnson. CHICAGO, Spt. 20. (Special.) Stanley Ketchel and his manager, Willis Rritt. stopped off in Chicago today en route West, where Ketchel is scheduled to tackle Jack Johnson in a 20-round battle on October 12. Although Ketchel was considerably disappointed when his battle with Dusky Sam Langford in New York was halted by the authorities, he figures he will make up for lost time when he engages Johnson in deadly combat. 'I was all primed for one coon killing," declared the Montana Whirlwind, "when the state authorities butted in, but I hope to be able to deliver another when I face Johnson. He has not anything on me when it comes to fast work, and as for punching ability, I'm willing to stack my haymaker again3t his any day in the I think Ketchel will be better trained for Johnson than he has for any other man he has ever met," said Britt. "He will have had five solid weeks of prepara tion when he steps into the ring at Colma, October 12." Steals Ride; Is Killed. MED FORD. Or.. Sept. 20.

NEW YORK. Sept. 20. The first Independent body of eltlsens of Greater New York to ohoose a candi date for Mayor for the approaching municipal eleotion selected tonight for this honor 8upreme Cuort Justice William Qaynor, of Brooklyn. He was nominated at a mass meeting of the Municipal Democracy, an organ ization of progressive Democrats of the city. BY LLOYD F. LONEB8AN. NEW YORK, Sept. . (Special.) Many minor organizations which had hoped to participate In the fusion conference, are now howling dismally outside the breast works, and telling how the anti-Tammany cause is doomed to defeat, because their respective organizations have been ignored. But the general Impression is that the committee of 100 has shown remarkable good judgment in the selection of the bodies with which It will confer. They are the regular Republicans from the different boroughs, the Independence League, the Taxpayers' Protective Union, the Citizens'. Union, Cleveland Democ racy and Democratic Union. The loudest howls come from the Vot ers' Federation and the Interborough Civic League, but the men who are run ning affairs declare that these two bodies between them do not control 300 votes. "We are mighty well pleased with the progress up to date," declares Chairman Outerbridge, of the "Hundred," and he continued: "Much of the preliminary work has been cleared up, and we will soon be ready to consider candidates in earnest. Not Whole Works. The committee of 100 is not the auto cratlo body that It was a few months ago. The members have seen a great light, and they realize that they are not the whole works, but they mean to sub mit names for practically every office that is to be filled at the election this Fall. The big reformers have also been chastened because of the fact that many of the men who they selected aa mayoralty timber, have publicly an nounced that they will not run under any circumstances Among them are ex Mayor Seth Low, President Nicholas Murray Butler, of Columbia, and Presi dent John H. Flnley, of the City College. It might be added that while all of these are estimable gentlemen, they would not arouse any more enthusiasm on the stump than a cake of Ice at the North Pole. Under the circumstances, the hun dred are pinning their faith to Robert W. De Forest, who was Tenement-house Commissioner under Mayor Low, and made a very good record, although he could never be termed a popular idol. Republicans Name Ponr. The Republicans have presented four names to the conference, and the prob abilities are that one of them will carry off the nomination. This quartet is: Henry I Stlmscn, Charles S. Whitman, Borough President, George Cromwell, of Richmond, and Register William A. Prendergast. of Brooklyn. The popular impression Is that Stlm son has the inside track at present, owing to the'fact that it is generally supposed that he has the backing of United States Senator Eliliu Root. Stimson was United States District Attorney for a number of years, and would be thoroughly acceptable to the Republican organization. Whitman is a former Judge and an avowed candi date for McClellan's place. Cromwell is the only straight Republican ever elected to the office of Borough President, and has held it ever since consolidation be came a fact. Prendergast Is a regular Republican of Independent tendencies. Any of these men, except probably Pren dergast, would suit the regulars down to the ground. And it would not be surpris ing if this one fact served to defeat them. Club Members Hurt. Membrs of the Republican Club are rather hurt because they were not invited to participate in the deliberations of the foes of Tammany Hall. The explanation Is made, however, that It was considered that ample Justice had been done by in viting the regular Republicans, and that If the clubmen have any suggestions to make, that they are best made through their regular organization. Before the Independence League was in vited, the atmosphere was cleared by the announcement of Clarence J. Shearn that he positively would not accept the nomi nation for District Attorney, which, had previously been the one thing that Wil liam Randolph Hearst had firmly in sisted upon. But Hearst was informed that under no circumstances could he be accommodated, at least eo far as Shearn was concerned. In fact the fusionists went so far as to intimate that If Hearst meant to insist upon the selection, of Shearn, that it might be advisable to keep the Independence League out of the conference, as it would be bound to cause discord. Financiers Well Posted. As has already been explained in The Oregonian, Wall Street financiers who are interested in the fusion movement were well Informed as to the reason why Hearst insisted upon that one particular office, and why Sheain was willing to give up an extremely lucrative law prac tice to take it. ' But when Hearst saw that he would be compelled to give up his pet scheme or be wiped out altogether, he decided that even one slice was better than no loaf at all, and Shearn withdrew from the race for Jerome's Job as grace fully as was possible under the circum stances. Now, the Leaguers are willing to take anything that may be offered. The indications are that they will be given a place on the Brooklyn Borough ticket, which is really more than they are entitled to when their weakness is considered. The Republican leaders are already complaining that their fusion allies have absolutely no conception of prac tical politics. To prove this they are scornfully calling attention to the manifesto which the "Hundred" issued when they called for a fusion confer ence. Here is the meat of the argu ment made by the amateurs: "Future franchises must be lease- Skinner's Satin in Black and All Colors (Guaranteed Howd and LeBeau Front Lacing Corsets (Best Made) i Select Your Horse Ultra smart dressers of Portland will appreciate the magnificent assortment of extremely clever models in Fall attire to be found here.

It must not be blocked or tied in contracts to be made. It must, of course, secure to the investor a fair return, if it is to take back a franchise in the Interest of a larger programme. "Probably most of oik- future sub wavs will, be built with city money. The city can borrow more cheaply than the private contractor, and the low rate of interest will reduce the ex pense of operation. A subway built by private capital, however, to be owned by the city, is a city work. "Operation by the city will never be necessary so long as lessees are ready and able to furnish efficient service. But the city's right and power to oper ate must be so clear and unmistakable' as to leave it free to deal with operat ors on a basis of equality. ' The constitutional amendment now passed by two Legislatures recom mended in special messages by Gov ernor Hughes and indorsed by the Mayor's commission of well-known bunkers, is drawn adequately to safe guard the city's credit. If approved by the voters at the next election, power can, by appropriate legislation, be given to the city whereby money for self-sustaining subways will be made available. Doesn't Mean More lebt. "The passage of this amendment does not necessarily mean an ex tension of the city's debt. This situa tion may never arise. It does mean that the city will not be helpless if private enterprise demands unreason able terms. We should. Indeed, save enough In money now wasted to build some of the subways Immediately needed." Still the conferences are going on dally, and the men who are unselfish ly opposed to Tammany Hall are hop ing for the best. Perhaps a real live candidate wiU make his appearance after all.
