HILL HERE; LAYS
PLANS FDR OREGON
President of Great Northern
Road to Make Announce
ment Soon.
TO PASS SUMMER IN WEST
With Father, James J. H1H, Head of
Road, Will ' Return to Portland
Later In April and Will Then
Talk Denies Land Deal.
Oregon's railroad situation, so far as
the Hill Interests are concerned, will be
officially made public within the month.
This fact was announced yeaterday by
Lou If W. Hill, president of the Great
Northern road, who arrived In Portland
yesterday from California. Mr. Hill lsj
on his way to St. Paul, where he will
confer with his father, James J. Hill,
regarding activities In Oregon. Within
three weeks both father and eon will
"eome to Portland and give out much
Information as to their operations In this
state. Louis W. Hill Is then. to remain
In Portland the Remainder of this Spring
and eJl Summer.
Whether the Hill interests are to con
struct an east and west line through
Oregon, is one of the questions Louis
W. Hill promised yesterday would be an
swered on his return. He also said he
would tell what Is to be done about ex
tending the United Railways to Tilla
mook, and announce whether the Hill
Interests have or h.ve not purchased the
Oregon Electric. The possibility of con
structing a Hill line to Coos Bay Is also
to be made a certainty or to be denied
entirely on his return.
Hills Not Back or Land Deal.
Mr. Hill denied absolutely that the
Hill Interests are connected in any way
iwlth the purchase of the Willamette Val
ley & Cascade Mountain wagon road
grant. The purchasers, he said, are
friends of the Hills, but are acting for
themselves alone and are abundantly able
to finance the big enterprise.
Not the least Important of Mr. Hill's
statement was his discussion oT the great
publicity work the Hill lines are to carry
on for Oregon. While this announcement
Is not new, Mr. Hill went Into details
concerning me expiouuLiun plans iruiu
which this state Is to benefit.
"It Is the policy of the Great
Northern and the Spokane, Portland &
fieattle Railroad to be frank with the
public and we never make an an
nouncement until we are ready to put
our plans ino execution," said Mr.
Hill. "1 will leave Portland tomorrow
and will meet my father In St. Paul,
where we are to have a conference on
Oregon matters. He will accompany
me to Portland within two or three
weeKs. and upon arrival I will reply to
the many Inquiries that have been
made concerning our plans here.
"At present, however, I want to say
that the Hill roads have no Interest
whatever In the sale or purchase of
the Willamette Valley and Cascade
' Mountain wagon road. We hope it Is
sold and that It will be opened to set
tlement and development. It is the
iieart of Oregon and one of tie biggest
things In the state. Our policy is to
Ket behind the big things' first and
the smaller ones last. When Colonel
C. E. S. Wood came to me In St. Paul
I gave him the addresses of Mr.
Burchard, Mr. Robertson and the other
fentlemen who are now on the ground
examining the property. They are our
friends in a business way, but have
no understanding of any character
with the road. They probably repre
sent 125,000,000 of their own money,
nd can buy the property without any
ieln. Thev are a rtnrt nf the rrnun of
timber and land dealers located in the
Twin Cities who have handled more
big land deals than any other set of
men In the United States.
"I am also ready to discuss the
Portland terminal situation. It will
not present a hard problem to solve
when the various Interests secure the
time to get together on It. Nothing
has bean done In the matter since the
death of Mr. Harriman. We never
were very far' apart. We wanted to
buy a certain proportion of the stock
held by the Southern Pacific, so that
the ownership might be equally di
vided between the Northern and South
rn roads. Mr. Harriman offered ' us
sn equal number of directors on the
hoard, but did not want to sell the
stock. ' That is where It stands. I
apprehend that there will be no trouble
In securing an agreement with the
successors of Mr. Harriman.
Mr. Hill to Stay Here This Summer.
"When I return here in the latter
Xart of April it will be to remain in
Oregon for. the Summer. I propose to
get acquainted With Oregon interests
and the people In Just the same man
ner as I did In Montana. Our policy
will be to begin systematic and or
ganized publicity of cities and counties
snd to get them into harmony in 'the
advancement of their own localities.
"Our railroads pioneer settlement of
any state In which we are located. At
present the population of Oregon Is in
the cities and along the rivers. What
Is needed Is settlement of the interior
lands. You know that you have homes
lor many thousands of people on some
of the most fertile lands in 'the world.
I know it also But the trouble Is
that the people who are land crazy
In the Kast do not know It. We will
try to get all localities lined up with
us in reaching the people who want
to come to the . Coast.
"We will establish a number of
Shows In Philadelphia, Boston. Chi
cago and other prominent towns
throughout the East. The shows will
he made up of Oregon exhibits and
will be in the hands of reliabla men
who wll list inquirers. All the promi
nent state fairs of the East will be
visited by an Oregon show. At all.
' . Miwiii n viii uidli lume literature
.that ls authentic and behind which
the credit of the Great Northern will
stand. There will be no fakers or
swindlers in the crowd.
"Then in the Fall of the year I want
to send out an exhibit car. filled with
fruit and grains from this state. It
Will be billed all along the Erie rail
road and the route of the "-iington.
.' through the thickly populated sections.
It will be equipped with moving pic
ture machines and lantern slides. On
arrival In any .town, the larsrest hall
-lll be secured and a lecture on Ore
gon furnished all who will attend. The
people will be invited to the car and
its four attendants will see to It that
they are supplied with literature sult-
' able to answer their inquiries.
To do all this I want an - organiza
tion In Oregon, and am going to select
the men myself during the Summer.
I want 'live ones." but reliable cltl
sen who are interested In our devel
opment plans, so that when I wire
them to get things going in a certain
direction they will not hesitate, but
will do It.
"In brief that is our plan to popu
late Oregon. It worked so well in
Montana that we. are now receiving
4000 inquiries about that state at our
St- Paul office every day. Settlers are
going in ,there so fast that one land
offlcer.'wire'a me that he had filed
3500 homestead applications last
month."
A formal list of questions concern
ing the activity of the Hill interests
in Oregon was presented to the presi
dent of the Great Northern. These
Inquiries, -which be agreed to answer
on his return to' Portland, are as fol
lows: Few Questions to Be Answered.
Will you construct an east and west road
through Oregon ? Where will it intersect
the Deschutes Canyon road?.
If so, will you make use of the right of
way of the Boise Ac Western through Mal
heur Canyon?
With what railroad and at what point
In Montana or Idaho will you make your
Eastern connection ? s
Will you build a Portland depot this year
as announced?
What will be done as to removing the
rails of the United Railways from the county
road toward Llnaton. and will you use the
Northern Pacific tracks?
What is to be done about an extension of

CUI POLITICS, IS CRY
MISSIONARY LAYS DOWN RULES
FOR MISSIONARIES.
lr. J. H. Cudlipp, in Sermon, Con
siders Statements of Lords Curzon
and Salisbury. Politicians.
That missionaries have no business
meddling with the political affairs of the
countries in which they are working,
nor in changing established customs to
conform; to their own ideas or the habits
they may heve formed in their home
land, was th statement made, by Dr.
John H. Cudlipp in the pulpit of the
Grace Methodist Church yesterday morn
ing. He was preaching from Mark 16:15,
tlra- oft-quoted command of Christ to the
disciples to preach the gospel in all the
world. Said Dr. Cudlipp:
The missionary question Is a living Is
sue. It has to do with the great and vital
world movements of the age. The man who
declares that h does not believe In mis
sions can scarcely claim to have thought
through to the heart of the proposition.
New conditions hav created a new con
ception of the mission and the missionary.
"We have found an oppoetng element here,
both formidable and aggressive. I do not
now refer to the infidel, the meer, the in
dolent, nor the ignorant man at horn who
dec Tare that he does not believe in mis
sions, but those -bright men who live in
the field, and who taunt us from thence,
For instance. Lord Curxon wrote at the time
he was Vicerov of India- "It is Impossible
for us to ignore the fact that mission
aries are a source of political unrest, and
frequently of international trouble, and that
they are subversive to the national institu
tions of the country where they reside."
This seems like a harsh statement, com
ing as it does from a man of wide experi
ence and Influence. Yet we are bound to
admit that he Is right. The Christian
church is. and in the nature of things must
be, against the unchrlstisn conditions of the
Orient. n& as the religious life of the
East 1 so closely tied to Its civil and social
life, it must necessarily become a disturber
of the peace, and In some Instances the
cause of serious international complications.
Hence, we may understand what Lord Salis
bury meant when he said tfiat "the mission
ary Is not popular at the foreign office."
But Lord Curxon and Lord Salisbury -do
not slate the proposition fairly. Indeed,
they tell us but a half truth. Are all men
hypocrites because some men are bad ? Is
all money counterfeit because one dollar
Is found to be so? Are all missionaries fail
ures because some have misbehaved ? It is
a fact, too plainly before us to be denied,
that the unwise missionary has been a sur
prise and a pussle.
God forbid that I should say one unkind
word concerning the work of any church
trying to bring this old world back to God.
think, however, the Roman Catholic
Church will admit that some of her mis
sionaries were mistaken In their attempt
to christianise the pagan by offering the
protection of any nation, which Is said to
be true of a company of zealous mission
aries from France. , This Is the point where
national and international complications ap
pear. Last night Dr. Cudlipp spoke on "Amer
ica's Perils." referring to the danger
of placing the beillot in the hands . of
millions of illiterates within 30 days
after they land at Xew York, and say
ing that while he believes there should
be free speech in the United States, he
also believes In "clenn. speech." He said
he believes the ''yellow sheet" was re
sponsible for President McKtnley's as
sassination. "The Nation's Hope" is his
subject for next Sunday night.
PULITZER LAID UP
TO SAVE EXPENSE
Port of Portland Will Keep
1 Three x Pilots on Duty
During Summer.
$1000 MONTH TO BE SAVED
Economy ol Management Given as
Sole Cause of Reduction In Force
or Pilots Independent Com
petition Said to Be" Small.
To do . away with an unnecessary
expense during the quiet Summer sea
son, the Port of Portland has with-
drawn from service temporarily the
g-asoline pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer,
which left up the river from Astoria
yesterday to go to the Oregon dry
dock for an overhauling.
Contrary to reports, this does not
mean that the Port of Portland is
withdrawing its pilots from service,
but on the contrary they will continue
on duty, and will be carried over the
bar to meet Incoming vessels on the
Port of Portland tug Wallula.
From now until Fall the Port will
keep only three pilots employed, the
fourth one being given a layoff until
the Pulitzer returns to duty. The
pilots will do duty turn about during
the Summer, and to avoid any charge
of favoritism, the Port is allowing the
pilots to arrange among themselves
their respective turns for the enforced
vacation.
Saving Will Be $1000 Month,
i
H. F. Campion, superintendent of
towage and pilotage for the Port of
Portland, said 5resterday that the tug
Wallula could easily do the pilot work
for the Summer months, and by taking
the Pulitzer out of service a saving
would be realized of about $1000 a
month.
"The report that the Pulitzer is be
ing taken off on account of competition
of the independent pilots is wrong,"
said Mr. Campion, yesterday. "Our
pilots were put on duty to improve
the -service, and that has been done.
We feel that we can save money by
allowing the Wallula to do the pilot
boat work during the Summer, and I
don't suppose the taxpayers will ob
ject." It is understood that the Pulitzer
will go on the drydock at once and be
overhauled. Then., she will be tied up
until the proper time for her to return
to duty.
Port Changes Pilotage System.
There has been quite a change In
pilotage matters at the mouth of the
Columbia River since the Port of Port
land Commission took charge on July
1 last- s For many years pilotage on the
Columbia River Bar was maintained by
an association comprising never less
than nine and sometimes aa high as
12 pilots, alh of whom were in active
service. These men "owned and main
tained the schooner Joseph Pulitzer,
which was kept outcide practically all
the year, coming in for a day or two
for water and supplies, or for a
longer period-for repairs during the
Summer, when the'state schooner, San
Jose, was sent out In her place.
They also paid the Oregon Railroad
& Navigation Co., which operated the
tugboats, a certain percentage of their
gross Income from pilotage for carry
ing pilots on, the tugs and for placing
them on , or taking them oft vessels
outside the heads.
When the Port of Portland absorbed
the tugboat and pilotage business last
year, it also purchased the schooner
Joseph Pulitzer, and has since installed
gasoline power in the vessel. All the
old pilots were discharged with the
exception of five, who were kept in
the employ of the Commission, and for
a time last Fall the number was in
creased to seven.
Pilots Agairij Reduced.
About the first of" the present year
the pilots were reduced to four, but
the pilot schooner was kept outside as
usual. On April 1. however, another
change and the most pronounced one
of all was made. The pilot schooner
was called 'In from her station, her
crew discharged, and the vessel taken
to Portland, where she is to. be laid
up for the Summer, at least. The pilots
on active duty were reduced to three,
one of the four In the employ of the
Commission being laid off for a month
in turns.
The bar pilots now in the employ

of the Commission are Captains M. D.
Staples, D. J. McVicar. C. S. Gunderson
and Arthur leishton. all of whom were
members of the old pilots' association.
While there are others who hold bar
branches, there are only four men not
in the employ of the Commission, who
have been using? those branches of
late and who may rightfully be termed
independent pilots. They are Captains
Qus Anderson, George W. Wood, R.
Swensen and H. A. Mathews. Since
quitting active service on the bar they
have been employed as masters of ves
sels on the coast or on the river, while
at other times they have brought sev
eral foreign steamers from the Sound
or San Francisco or taken them there
and have even piloted foreign-bound
steamers across the bar. having a
launch go outside to ' take them off
and bring them back to the city. . This
opposition has not cut materially into
the Port of Portland's receipts from
pilotage of steamers.
Dr. Black Lectures.
Hugh Black, D. D., author and lec
turer, preached at the First Presby
terian Church last 'night an able ser
mon on "Decision," speaking also at
the Y. M. C. A. in. the afternoon. Jfa
a basis for last night's sermon he took
the story of Paul's argument before
Felix, and the latter's reply, "Go thy
way for this time, when I have a more
convenient season I will call for. thee."
Dr. Black contended that while ques
tions calling for scientific research
may be weighed in the mind and a de
cision postponed until further dis
coveries are made, moral issues "must
be decided at once.
Gales Delay Steamer.
Strong variable gales along the Ore
gon coast caused" the steamer Ramona
to be delayed in leaving Coos Bay un
til 6 o'clock Saturday afternoon. She
did not get across the Columbia River
bar until 4:15 o'clock yesterday after
noon, thus her trip up the coast was
unusually slow. The Ramona and the
Breakwater usually make the trip
from' Coos Bay to the Columbia River
bar in 17 hours.

James Estes, who for the last five

DOZEN CRIMES MARK DAY
Seven Bnrglaries, Five Hold-ups
Cause Order for Vigilance.
'Seven burglaries and Ave holdups were
reported to the police detective bureau
Saturday night and yesterday. Captain
of Police Baiiey yesterday afternoon gave
instructions to the first night relief under
his command to keep a sharp lookout for
all suspicions characters.
"Anyone you see lurking around, who
cannot give a good account of himself,
should be brought into the station," he
told his men.
.The work of one highwayman Saturday
night bears the evidence of professional
skill. Two. men were held up within two
blocks of each other by this man and
all their money was taken. Watches or
other Jewelry were not touched 'by the
robber.
The first victim was Frank Creasey,
of 173 North Sixteenth street. Creasey
was held up at Sixteenth and Hoyt streets
shortly after 13 o'clock and relieved of
$25. The robber wore no mask, but pulled
the collar of a long black overcoat he
wore up around his face. Leaving Creasey,
and while yet in sight, he forced J. Jer
gens. of 11 North Tenth street, to hold
up his hands at the muzzle of a long,
blue-barrel revolver, taking $26.50 from
him. Creasey did not report to the police
until yesterday.

BIOS GOME SLOWLY
Manning to Be Outfitted for
Bering Cruise.
REPAIRS NOT YET DONE
Two Weeks "More Are Needed Before
Cutter Will Be Ready If Port
land Merchants Are Not
More Active Seattle Wins.
Preparatory for a six months' cruise
in the Bering Sea. the United States
revenue -cutter Manning is to be outfit
ted at once. She Is expected to be ready
to leave on the cruise, which will be
for the protection of the United States
seal fisheries', about the middle of Mey.
The Manning Is undergoing repairs at
the Willamette Iron & Steel Works, and
It will be about two weeks more before
she will be ready to leave the yards.
Bids for the necessary supplies for the
Manning during her cruise are being so
licited, but the local dealers are slow
about responding, it is said, as they do
not care to .bother with the "red tape"
incidental to Government purchases. Un
less the merchants of Portland respond
to the request for bids in a satisfactory
manner, it is said, the Government will
send the vessel to Seattle for her sup
plies. The supplies necessary for the Man
ning for her northern trip will cost more
than J10.000, including the amount nec
essary for the three separate messes.
The Government is anxious to get the
supplies in Portland, as it would save
time. The vessel, it is desired, should
remain here until her departure.
When the Manning went to the ship
yards for repairs about two weeks ago,
it was expected she would be ready to
leave there in 15 days, but It has since
been found that more repairs and .Im
provements are needed than was at first
expected, and thus she Is to be kept at
the yards for about two weeks more.
Yesterday being Sunday, the Manning
was open to the inspection of visitors,
but as few seemed to know of this,
only an occasional .person wandering
along the waterfront found his way
aboard. As the Mannings' place of duty
is usually in the vicinity of the Co
lumbia River, her officers' families live
in Portland, and thus the time taken up
in the repairs for the vessel gives the
officers a rare chance of a visit at their
respective homes.
