TUFT, AT BUFFALO,
TALKS INCOME TAX
Confident Hughes Will Decide
Right in Speech Made
to Ad Men.
KNOX USES OPPORTUNITY
Secretary Complains at "Some'
Newspapers Diluting Sews in At
tempt to Misrepresent Gold
Pen Presented to President.
BUFFALO, X. Y., May 1 President
Tait and Secretary of State Knox were
guests of honor at the banquet held in
ratification of the two leading commer
cial organizations of Buffalo the Cham
ber of Commerce and the Manufacturers'
Club. Thomas Penney, ex-District Attor
ney of Erie County, acted as toastmastar.
Mr. Knox devoted his time to explana
tion of recent reforms in the diplomatic
and consular services. He declared anew
that diplomacy and trade must go hand-Jn-hand
and that it was a misconception
to construo It otherwise.
The President devoted the greater part
of his speech to purely local matters.
Conservation Touched On.
Mr. Taft spoke of the conservation bills
in Congress, and especially the one con
firming the right of the executive to
withdraw tse lands from public entry.
'There has been objection to this," he
e&ld. "as a reflection upon those officials
who already have exercised the power, in
suggesting that they usurped the power
of Congress. If the Supreme Court should
decide that this power does not exist, we
would have a perfect mess. There are
people who say the power does not exist
end are trying to secure title to land on
that ground. The fact they are willing
to face lawsuits shows the course they
have long pursued and are preparing to
fight."
The President said the subject of con
servation was rather ahstruse.
"But," he added, "there are a great
many people in favor of conservation,
no matter what it means."
Tribute Paid to Hughes. ,
Mr. Taft paid a tribute to Governor
Jlughes.
"As I look on this New York audi
ence," he said, "I feel like apologizing
on the one hand, and felicitating the
country on the other. In taking from
you a great Governor to make a great
Justice of the Supreme Court of the
United States.
"Even though I do not agree with
Governor Hughes In his construction
of the Income tax, and hope that your
Legislature will adopt that amendment,
I shall still be willing and glad if it'
does, to submit its construction to Mr.
Justice Hughes In full confidence that
without regard to what view he may
have taken before, he will give again
Ihls judicial quality to the solution of
that problem. You know and I know
that he Is that kind of man, who can,
when he takes the oath of office, de
cide every question without fear or
favor as faith gives him power to see
the right."
Both. Guests at Club.
As guests of the Buffalo Ad Club at
luncheon today, Mr. Taft and Secretary
Knox made two little impromptu
epeeches, which won them enthusias
tic applaudits. The President spoke of
his legislative hopes, but declared he
preferred being advertised rather than
to advertise himself, despite the criti
cism that, he did not sufficiently em
ploy that agency.
Secretary Knox took a decided fling
at "Some newspapers," which, he de
clared, in diluting the news were as
guilty of wrong-doing as men indicted
under the pure food act for diluting
foodstuffs.
"Especially." added the Secretary, "if
that dilution springs from sh'alice or an
attempt to misrepresent."
After breakfast at the home of Ans
ley Wilcox this morning. President Taft
spent two hours in the library of the
Wilcox home, where In 1901 Theodore
Itoosevelt took the oath of office as
President of the United States, follow
ing the death of President McKinley. a
few blocks away. Mr. Taft is the first
President to visit Buffalo since those
fateful days. Shortly after noon, the
President held a reception at the
Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Taft broke a Presidential prece
dent by allowing himself to be quoted
at an interview with reporters. He
asked his interviewers to keep away
from politics, but they plunged right
into the New York situation, and es
pecially the appointment of Governor
Hughes to the Supreme Court bench.
'I saw Governor Hughes at Albany."
the President said, "oefore he was
nominated and we went over the ques
tion of his running again for Gover
nor. I urged him to do so. He gave
me many reasons why he could not.
When a man like Hughes makes up his
mind it is not done without careful
consideration, and it Is usually made
up for good.
tJoId Pen Is Presented.
As to the Income tax, the President
said :
"My views on that subject have not
changed tn any way. 1 am decidedly in
favor of giving the Government the
right to levy such a tax In time of ne
cessity.'" At the Ad Club luncheon the Presi
dent was presented with a gold
fountain pen. Referring to the Demo
cratic Xational Chairman. Norman E
Mack, and to W. J. Conners, he re
marked that if their expectations of a
Democratic Congress were realized he
might have to use the pen more fre
quently to explain why he did not sign
acts than In slarnlng them.
CAR PURCHASES DELAYED
Harriman Lines Fall to Get Rolling
Stock for Xew Crops.
CHICAGO. May 1. (Special.)
Negotiations for about 2S0 locomotives
and 6000 or 6000 freight-cars, which
the Harriman lines expected to pur
chase, are retarded because of inability
to secure satisfactory terms.
This equipment would not be received
now in time for moving this year's crop
and it is likely that the orders will be
delayed for some time.
FINE QUARTERS SECURED
Killingsworth Avenue Improvement
Club Has Xew Location.
The Kllllngvorth-A-enue Improvement
Association, in view of a steady increase
of members, has decided to abandon the
corner store as a meeting place and move
Into a more accessible district. Meetings
will be held In the hall back of the drug
store in the Reidt building, on Union ave
nue and Killingsworth avenue, president
Reidt has announced that in the near fu
ture meetings will be held in a new con
crete building which is to cover the
quarter block on the southeast corner of
Killingsworth and Union as soon as com
pleted. Part of this building was leased
by the United States for a postoffice, a
distributing center for the Peninsula.
The committee which waited on the
Portland Railway, Light & Power Com
pany announced that the company cannot
possibly lay the tracks on Killingsworth
avenue before next year. After this an
nouncement the club decided to delay the
hard surfacing of the street until the
railroad company is ready. The street
will be graded and cement walks and
sewer, gas and water mains will be laid.
The Pacific Telephone Company will put
its wires in the ground soon. The club
decided that the best 'place for the new
schoolhouse will be between East Fif
teenth and East XIneteenth streets, some
where between Killingsworth and Ains
worth avenues. The club will protest
against a Twenty-fifth and Alnsworth
location. Meetings of the club are held
every Wednesday, at 8 P. M.
Handsomest o! Men Is

The distinction that George Alex
ander holds in England of being the
idol of matinee girls is probably sur
passed by Henry "Woodruff, who came
to the Ev--r.low Theater Sunday night
in "The Prince of Tonight."
Mr. Woodruff is regarded as one of
the handsomest of men. His photo

But quite apart from that, he has a
claim to distinction in that he has ap
peared in every phase of "theatrical
work from "Macbeth" to musical com
edy. Mr. Woodruff had only achieved the
tender age of 7 when he first ap
peared before the footlights. But he
never made much mention of his career
until his 10th year, when he took a
juvenile part in "Pinafore." Woodruff
was only In the chorus to ntart with,
but so Impressed were the managers
with "Harry's" golden hair and blue
eyes that he was promoted to Bo'sun.
When 11 years old Mr. Woodruff be
came a devotee of Shakespeare. He
roamed the country with Edwin Booth.
At that early date he was one of the
two princes just before they were
smothered under the tower steps, a
page of tender years or other creations
of the Bard of Avon.
While he has played dozens of parts

collegian in "Brown of Harvard." that

It's not fair, perhaps to give his age.
But anyway he has seen 41 Summers.

WEZLEB'S LITTLE
ONES AROUSE Hi
Prisoner Breaks Down When
Boy of Four Makes Men
tion of Crime.
WEEPS ALL AFTERNOON
Defense Will Introduce Character
Witnesses From Portland, Hop
ing to Get Off With Man
slaughter Verdict.
TACOMA. May 1. At the noon re
cess in the trial of Charles J. Wezler,
confessed murderer of Mrs.. Krederika
Schulz, the prisoner met his children,
a daughter aged 6 ana son aged 4 in
the Clerk's office. The first words he
heard were from the little boy who
said:
"Mamma says you killed grandma."
The father was completely overcome,
having felt certain tne little ones knew
nothing of the crime. He . sobbed
throughout the afternoon hearing.
Remarkable progress is being made
in the , trial. One-third of the state's
witnesses were heard during the morn
ing session and by Monday night it Is
probable the defense will begin.
Women Drawn to Trlul.
The case is drawing most of - the
women spectators from the trial of
Mrs. Martina Kvalshaug across the
hall on the charge of complicity in the
murder of her husband. In the latter
case cross-examination of the woman
by the State's Attorney brought an ad
mission from her that her testimony
yesterday v-as partly untrue.
Mrs. Loulte Wezler. divorced wife of
the prisoner, testified against him this
afternoon regarding his decoy letter
which lured Mrs. Schulz from home.
Under preliminary cross-examination,
she became hysterical. Wezler's coun
sel forced her to admit publicly that
the father of her two babies is the
confessed murderer. The strain was
too much, and an emotional scene en
sued. ;
State's Case Nearly Completed.
Theicourt suggested a recess to per
mit a return of her forced composure,
but Mrs. Wezler refused to leave the
stand, and assumed a determined mien
which lasted during the remainder of
her examination.
The state's main case was almost
complete at the evening adjournment.
Prosecutor McMurray expects to place
the case in the jury's hands by Monday
night. A score of Wezler's friends
from Portland and Seattle will appear
in his behalf as character witnesses
on Monday. Other than this, Wezler
has no defense to offer. His attorneys
hope to get him ofT with a manslaughter
verdict, on the ground that the crime
was committed in a sudden passion.
Wezler himself will take the stand next
week.
Just before court convened this
morning, the photograph of his two
children was handed to Wezler. He
looked at It for a monent, then burst
Into tears. Several times during the
forenoon he took, the photograph from
his pocket and gazed at it, then sobbed.
At recess he looked at it from time to
time, then cried: "My children; oh,
my children."
SLUSH FUND IS TALKED

CHICAGO. May 1. John C. Fetzer,
who alleges that a "slush fund" of
about $200,000 was used in advancing

with State's Attorney Wayman today.
Details were not made public
Neither the suit filed by the com
pany to recover $525,000 from Fetzer,
out of which the company alleges
Fetzer defrauded it, nor the latter's in
junction seems likely to come up for set
tlement in court in the near future. De
velopments, "however, are expected
when Mr. Fetzer tells his story to the
grand jury, especially summoned to
hear It next Monday.
Fetzer alleges that a large portion of
the money ""R'hlch the company seeks to
recover was spent In securing the
passage of bill 777 at Springfield to
validate bonds Issued by the Chicago &
Western Indiana, In securing from the
Common Council of Chicago the vacat
ing of a street desired by the road, and
In seeking to block an extension of the
Illinois Central In suburban Chicago.
TWO SHOPLIFTERS CAUGHT
Man and Wire Taken, AVith Goods
on Person; Attack Officers. '
Two shoplifters, giving the names of
Edward A. Lamberson and wife, were
detected In the act of pilfering the coun
ters of' women's wearing apparel and
Jewelry In the department store of Olds,
Wormian & King by Detective Sergeants
Day and Hyde last night. The couple
was held without bail. A quantity of
the stolen plunder was subsequently iden
tified by the department store employes.
Among the stolen articles was a combi
nation suit of women's underwear, an
$18 ostrich plume and a $25 picture hat
which the woman annexed and had placed
on her head.
The capture of the shoplifters occurred
after the detectives had trailed the couple
through several Washington-street depart
ment Btores. Lamberson was caught in
the act of hiding the suit of underwear
under his coat while his wife had at
tracted the attention of a clerk at an
other counter. When the detectives ac
costed them Mrs. Lamberson made an at
tempt to escape. Both resisted and strug
gled for freedom. In his efforts to release
the hold of Officer Day, Lamberson turned
on his captor and struck him a stunning
blow over the right eye with an umbrella
he carried. Blood flowed profusely from
the cut.
Lamberson says he Is an employe of a
local real estate firm and contends that
the woman, held In custody wi'.U him, is
his lawful wife.
Ex-Husband Is Trespasser.
Oscar Tweed, a letter-carrier, living
J in Lents, is to be arrested for annoy
ing his divorced wife, Annie Tweed.
A warrant for him was Issued yester
day by Justice Olson on the complaint
of the woman, who alleges that he
trespasses upon her property. At the
climax of their marital Infelicity, she
obtained a divorce, but he has refused
to leave the house, which is her property.
DEAD MAN MAY BE KUHN
Time Check in Pocket Gives Only
Clew to Identity.
Finding of a badly-decomposed body,
supposed to be that of Oscar Kuhn, a
laborer, was reported to the office of
the Coroner yesterday morning by
George Thomas and Edward Stack,
who found the body in a shack one
and one-half miles south of Holbrook
Station, on the Cornelius Pass road. A
bottle containing chloroform was found
near the corpse, suggesting the suicide
theory. The bottle was tightly corked,
however.
In the pockets of the clothing was
found a time check drawn in favor of
Oscar Kuhn on the United Railways
Company for $23 and a check for $3.25
from a local contractor. A camping
outfit, such as Is used by tramps, was
beside him. The dead man was about
45 years old, weighed about 140 pounds,
had a dark complexion and was clean
shaven. The man had been dead about
10 days.
Thomas and Stack, who came upon
the dead body, are two boys living in
the neighborhood, who were on a fish
ing trip.
BERRY SEASON IS NEAR
Hood River Expects Heaviest Crop
in Many-Years.
HOOD RIVER, Or., May 1. (Spe
cial.) A heavy rain last night, with
warm sunshine today, is said by berry
growers to be bringing on with a rush
the largest berry crop known at Hood
River in many years. It Is now ex
pected that 70,000 crates is not too
many berries to expect here this year.
So far the season Is 10 days earlier
than usual. Several hundred acres of
berries will be shipped this year out of
the upper valley district, the production
from which has heretofore been con
fined to about 40..
The coincidence of high water and
the berry-shipping season is again ful
filled this year, as the big boats be
gan to land today at the the foot of
First street. By the boats a number of
Indians have arrived to prepare for
picking and have established camps
near town. As usual, growers are com
mencing to talk about the scarcity of
pickers, and the apple-growers declare
they need all the help in the valley to
thin the apples. It is possible there
will be considerable strife between the
strawberry men and the aple men to
secure the help that comes into the
valley.
EARLY OPENING LIKELY
Yakima Expects Reserve Lands to
Be Put on Market This Kali.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., May 1.
f Special.) The visit of Judge James W.
Witten, superintendent of Indian lands
of the Department of the Interior, to
North Yakima Thursday, gives rise to
the conviction that the Yakima Indian
reservation will be opened next Fall.
Judge Witten would give out nothing
definite with regard to the opening, but
he expressed himself forcibly as favor
ing an opening In the Fall rather than
at any other time of the year.
He is reported to have said that If the
appraisement of the Yakima reservation
is completed before December 1, the
reservation., would be opened this year.
It is believeS here that the appraisement
will be completed In July or August.
Judge Witten made careful Investiga
tion into police protection and whether
gambling is allowed in the city. He said
that one of the most important consid
erations was the protection of the
rangers who will come here from various
parts of the country.
PORTLAND ON MAP TO EAST
Even Elite Boston Gives Pacific
Coast Over to Two Cities.
Only Portland and San Francisco are
on the map of the Pacific Coast, ac
cording to H. H. Ahrens, superintend
ent of a local gas appliance company,
who has just returned from a trip
through the Eastern states.
While in Boston, Mr. Ahrens visited
the Museum of Natural History in that
city and there discovered a fine large
topographical map of the country
showing every natural feature of the
country. Only a few of the most im
portant cities In the country were
shown and on this Coast the only two
deemed worthy of a place were Port
land and San Francisco. Various mi
nor towns that have been clamoring
for recognition were utterly ignored.
Mr. Andrews says that all the East
ern states have been hard hit by the
blizzard which followed an unusually
early Spring.

ALL BUSINESS 111
APRIL INCREASES
Bank Clearings, Building Per
mits and Shipments Grow
in Volume.
PAST RECORDS SMASHED
Postal Receipts agd Real Estate
Transfers Compared With Fig
ures for April, 1909, Show
the City's Prosperity.
General Increase In the volume of
business in Portland Is shown bv a
comparison of figures for April of" this
year with the figures for April, 1909
Bank clearings, building permits, real
estate transfers, grain shipments,
PlaI rece'Pts show a healthy increase.
J princ,Pal advance Is shown In
the bank clearings, where the Increase
is 37.8 per cent. Building permits, with
an Increase of 22 per ent over April.
1909, have set a new high mark for
Portland by passing ,the $2,000,000
mark. Real estate transfers show an
increase of 18 1-3 per cent. Grain ship
ments are so great that they will un
doubtedly place Portland In the second
place for .the entire country for the
nine months of the cereal year ending
on April 30. The record is significant
in that in April, 1S09, there were no
wheat shipments from Portland. Postal
receipts show a net gain of 16 per cent
over April, 1909.
The bank clearings which showed the
largest Increase, or 37 per cent,
amounted to $46,275,083.98. as compared
with $33.S66,30B.8Z for April, 1909. This
big increase was achieved not through
any one large check passing through
the clearing house or through any se
ries of deals, but Is a brilliant reflec
tion of the business being conducted
through the various Portland business
houses.
It is in the matter of- building per
mits that the best record has been at
tained. Here a mark of $2,014,722 was
reached with 17 permits, the total val
uation being the largest ever attained
in the history of Portland by more than
$303,000. As compared with the April,
1909, record, which was second only
to the former high mark with a figure
of $1,651,195, the increase shown is 22
per cent. The record for the first four
months of 1910 is $5,118,522, an increase
pf 21 per cent over the corresponding
four months of 1909.
That an even higher record will be
attained this month is evident from the
fact that there is already on hand in
the office of the building inspector
plans aggregating in valuations $1,010,
000. Ine largest of these are the Sell
ing building for $400,000, the city cre
matory for $100,000 and the Baker The
ater for $100,000, while Beven other sets
of plans make up the remaining
$410,000.
Heal Estate transfers are particularly
Interesting in that to date for the year
an increase is shown of 33 per cent,
while for the month just passed the in
crease ia 16 per cent over the corre
sponding period of last year. Trans
fers of property last month numbered
2017, as opposed to 1675 in April, 1909,
and the valuations placed on the prop
erties, as recorded in the deeds,
amounted to $2,975,068 as compared
with $2,558,032 for tile same month
last year. The aggregate for the open
ing four months of this year is $13,119,
941, and $9,884,768 for the first third
of J909.
Steadily keeping pace with the prog
ress which has marked each of the
past several montrfis, the Portland
Postoffice will show a net gain of at
least Vt per cent for April. The total
receipts will approximate $71,000, as
estimated by Cashier Hursch tast night.
The receipts for the same month of
1909 were $61,300.
In January, 1910, Portland gained
2'J per cent; February, 20 per cent, and
March, 22 per cent. For the same
months the Postoffice official figures
show that Seattle gained 17per cent, 3
per cent And 25 per cent, giving Port
land the advantage in totals of 20 per
cent for the same period of time.
Wheat shipments from Portland
for April amounted to 478,549 bushels
as compared with not a -sackful of
wheat shipped the preceding April.
Lumber exports 'amount to 7,057,578
feet sent to foreign ports, this being
the 'argest amount shipped in the pres
ent calendar year. coastwise ship
ments of lumber amounted to 12,706,
000 feet, as compared with about 10,
000,000 feet for April, 1909. No flour
was shipped this year, the great pro
ducing mill being shut down while
rebuilding. Last year the shipments of
flour amounted to 42,050 barrels.

FIVE TESTS TO
SATISFY HIM
A letter from D. M. Adamson, Pleas
ant Grove, Utah, Is Interesting, as it
shows that his physician could hardly
believe his eyes and made five tests on
five succeeding days, every one of them
showing a complete disappearance of
the albumen. Adamson enclosed us the
physician's reports, with the statement
that he was taken down with Bright's
In January. Distressing heart involve
ment caused him to be short of breath,
and to use his own expression, he
thought he "was near the end.' He
then went to a hospital. The doctors
there told htm that he had Bright's and
that he could not get over it. He then
went home and put himself on Fulton's
Renal Compound and has taken It ever
since. His physician made tests for
albumen on Oct. 20-21-22-23 and 25.
The last report was a. fair sample of
all of them; viz..
Specific Gravity 1022.
Reaction ........... .Acid.
Sugar- ........... .None.
Albumen ........... .None.
Precipitate None.
He closes: "I feel as well as I ever
did and think I have entirely recovered.
What do you think?"
And we thing so, too. Wonder what
his physician says as to all this and
what the hospital physicians will say
when thay meet him on the street?

DOG SHOW SUCCESS
Portland's Exhibition Closes
Auspiciously.
LOCAL CANINES VICTORS
Out-of-Town Entries More Numer
ous This Year Than at Previous
Displays San Francisco AVill
Get the Next Show.
With a long parade of winning dogs of
almost every size, color and breed as a
grand finale, one of the most successful
bench shows ever held in the Northwest
was officially brought to a close last
night. This show was the 11th annual
exhibition held under the auspices of the
Portland Kennel Club.
Many beautiful dogs from all parts of
the Coast were seen and admired by the
large attendance of canine-lovers. Out-of-town
entries were mora numerous this
year than any previous show that th
Portland Kennel Club has held. Dogs
were sent from Tacoma and Seattle,
Washington; from Victoria and Van

CAUSES DEBILITY
Here are Facts Backed Up by
a Strong; Guarantee
Catarrh causes debility. In our opin
ion, most people suffering from general
debility have catarrh. Such cases of
debility cannot be completely cured by
medicine not designed to eradicate ca
tarrh. In every case where our remedy
fails to give entire satisfaction we will
not charge a cent for the medicine em
ployed during the trial. Now, surely no
one should hesitate to believe us or to
put'our claim to a practical test under
such conditions. We will take all the
risk; no one else can lose anything by
the transaction.
We make these statements and this
offer because we know and have time
and again proved that Hexall Mucu
Tone rarely fails to do as we claim. It
is not a cure-all prescribed to cure
every disease that flesh is heir to. It
is intended for one purpose, i. e., to
cure catarrh by' assailing the diseased
condition in a reasonable, scientifto
way, which Is to employ agents that
have been found to have the tonic and
alterative power to correct faulty met
abolism (tissue change) and to stimu
late and help nature overcome the
cause or causes of catarrh. This being
done, appetite Increases, nutrition Im
proves, weight is gained, comfort of
body is attained and life's work taken
up with the zest natural to the perfect
ly healthy Individual.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu
Tone. Follow directions and take it
regularly and consistently for a reason
able length of time. Then, if you are
not satisfied, come back and tell us and
the money you paid for the treatment
will be returned without any argument
whatever.
Rexall Mucu-Tone comes in two sizes,
50c and $1.00 a bottle. Sold only at our
store. The Rexal Store, Owl Drug Co.,
