Minneapolis and Duluth, headed by Louis W. HI1.I, president of the Great Northern Railway, arrived In Portland yesterday on a tour of the Northwest, in auguiated for the purpose of gaining i better knowledge of business conditions and tha development under way In this section of the country. Tha visitors have come West with th warmest expressions of friendship for nreo-on- Washinfirton. Idaho and Montana and with encouragement for any colonlza tion plan that will turn immigrants from Canada to the sparsely settled portions of the Western United States. Good Feeling Created. On the wav westward they have helped hoost the eood feeling between different sections. For example. In Helena. Mont., large delegation was carried on their train to Kallspel- At Kalispel another bie party was made up and taken through to Spokane. At each Important stop the visitors have made Journeys Into the eonntrv And over the lnterurban . lines. gaining as complete a knowledge as pos sible of the resources that are awaiting further development. I havfe been trying for three years to Induce a party of our prominent burir.sss mnn n f nmd to the Pacific Jortnwest on a trip of this kind." 'said President Hill voterrliv. "We have had several ex cursions of the kind into Montana, but this Is the first that has come so lar West.

City's Financial Interests Stirred Up and Recriminations Fly Be tween Bank and City. NEW ORLEANS. La.. Oct 5. (Special.) The failure of the city to receiev & bid for its JT.000,000 sewerage and drainage bond issue yesterday has stirred up local financial quarters, and John J. Gannon president of the Hibernian Bank & Trust Company, will stoutly deny that he broke faith with Mayor Behrman or City At torney Moore, as they charge. It is now claimed that city officials were warned that the bank would not take the bond issue and tie up so much money In that way. As a result there is general disappointment. In an editorial today the Times-Demo crat declared that New Orleans cannot turn back at this stage of her great mu nicipal improvement and that the great work of sewering and draining the city must not stop because the bond issue, with which it was In-nded to complete the work, has failed to sell. The paper declares that short-term certificates could be Issued, and advises that a special ses sion of the Legislature be called at once to pass the necessary legislation legalis ing such certificates. It is contended that $3,500,000 would do the immediate work. CHILDREN BITTEN BY DOG Canine Runs Amuck and Terrorizes Spokane Residents Until Shot. SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 5. (Special.)

POLICE IN SECRET Times Assassins' Cap ture Believed Sure. QUARTZ MINERS BLAMED Dynamite Bought in Names of Placer County Men. BODIES OF 17 RECOVERED fcteam Crane at Work Clearing Out Debris Front Wrecked Building, 4 Burns Now in Full Charge of Inquiry City Calmer. LOS ANGELES. Cal., Oct. 5. In keeping with his declaration that the utmost secrecy would be maintained, detective William J. Burns, assisted by the Los Angeles ;.olice department, is making an Arsene Lupin mystery story of the man hunt for the conspirators, who destroyed the Times Building with dynamite or nltro-glycerlne last Sat urday morning. Burns came back to this city openly today and brought with him Detectives Ryan and Bonner of San Francisco's Detective Department. It is believed here that the men who carried out the plot to wreck the Times plant, and attempted to destroy the homes of General Harrison Gray Otis and of F. J. Zeehandelaar, were ex pert quartz miners from the gold dis. tricts of Northern CaHfrn!a. ' This assumption is based on the fact that the men who purchased the dyna mite from the Giant Powder Works used the names of J. L. Bryson, the Placer County miner, and that of his neighbor, Morris, and Jt Is supposed that the detectives at work In the North are trying to trace them back to the mining districts. Burns Is In Charee. Burns now has full charge of th hunt for the conspirators. He has been In charge since Sunday, when he was called into the case at a conference be tween Mayor Alexander, Chief of Po lice, Galloway and a number of othei city officials. Upon his arrival this morning. Burns displayed a degree of temper over the publicity that has been given the move ment of the men engaged in the man hunt. Burns said that the giving out of In formation would be stopped at once. All Burns would say was that "the criminals who blew up the Times and Its men last Saturday left tracks that are both wide and deep, and we shall certainly get them." But by what was learned prior to the detectives' arrival, it is practically cer tain that the searchers are working on the supposition that the explosive was brought to Los Angeles in suit cases. The aggregate reward of J100.000, Mayor Alexander said today, was too large. His comment was elicited by the suggestion that still greater rewards should be of fered. City Is Calm Again. The city has resumed its usual calm. The overwrought feeling evident directly after the disaster Saturday has subsided. But the precautionary measures taken have not been relaxed In the slightest degree. Instead, the Council, by means of another emergency ordinance passed today, added 85 policemen to the force by a resolution adopted Monday. Guard Is still maintained about the homes of persons who have had part in recent labor disputes and about buildings where strikes have been In progress for some time. Another body was recovered from the Times ruins today. It was Identified as Grant Moore, a linotype operator. Tha body was uncovered near one of he exits of the wrecked building. It was In a kneeling position and the flesh of the dead man had hardly been scorched. H had been suffocated. The finding of Moore's body brings the total of bodies recovered up to 16, and the known dead. Including Churchill Harvey Elder, to 17. Coroner Hartwell said today he was certain there were seven more bodies in the ruins. Crane Removes Debris. Moore's body was the 16th recovered from the ruins A big steam crane il now at work lifting the iron and steel wreckage and more bodies probably will be taken out within a few hours. Fiv or six more are believed to be still in tha ruins. , Charles Lovelace, the Times' suburban editor, who was injured when he jumped out of a window to escape the fire. Is rapidly recovering. Fred Campbell, the fireman injured, and William Latto, ona of the Injured Times employes, are also reported as progressing nicely. Burns declared that the Los Angeles police department, under the direction of Chief of Police Galloway, has been doing excellent work. "An investigation such as this demands horse sense, not false whiskers," he said, "and Mr. Galloway has plenty of horse sense. There is nothing to support the belief that a man has to be trained to police work to accomplish anything In the detective line. Hence we are get ting valuable aid from the Los Angeles department. It , h doing rU work." BUD IRK J I: 108.0
