is OREGON WILL HAVE COAST ARTILLERY Fourth Regiment to Be Dis banded and Enter New Arm of Service. CHANGE TO BE AT ONCE Troops Will Aid Regulars to Man Rig Cans at Mouth of Colnm bla Illvcr Arrangements Are Completed. Actlnr upon urgent recommenda tion! of the War Department. Adjutant General Flnier. of the Oregon National Guard, yesterday completed arrange merits for the organization of a Const Artillery corps In Oregon to supple ment the regular Army troops at the mouth of the Columbia Klver. Th entire Fourth Oregon Infantry. mittlnr one company, will be Imme diately disbanded and rtorRanlxed as roast artillery. A. similar cour, be applied to two companies of the Third Oregon regiment- Companies Ft Chans. Tkl weenlnar change In the Na tlnnal Guard of the state followed 5 Inns; course of communication with the "War lepartment orriciais at Masum tnn and with the various company and regimental officers concerned. Each company to be converted to the coast artillery branch voted for the changa when the question was formally pre sented. Inadequacy of the regular Army (rar rlsons to man the big coast sruns oc casioned the Interest of the War De partment In the matter. While the Government has been able to Bet re cruits for Infantry, cavalry and field artillery, men have shown a reluctance about entering; the coast artillery serv ice, which Is known as a dreary branch for the enlisted men. Caast baas t ader-Maaaed. For several years past many of the bis; rifles at Fort Stevens and Fort Columbia have been practically out of commission because of the shortage of men. In the event of war it Is cited that difficulty would be met with in hastily perfecting men In the handling of Intricate coast guns. With eight or nine full companies of reserves at hand In Oregon the War Department contends that the prob , lem would be fully met. These men will be equipped and trained by regu lar artillerists and will spend ten days out of each year with the regulars at the forts. anxious- was the Government to bring about the organization of the reserves that an offer was made by the War Department to pay the bulk of the expenses of making the change from Infantry to coast artillery. Of ficers will be detailed at once by Gen eral Kinier to effect the necessary changes. Few Chances Probable. Comparatively few positions will be abolished as a result of the change, although several staff officers of the Fourth Oregon regiment, the headquar ters of whluh are at Eugene, may lose their places. The order for Coast Ar tillery provides for one Colonel and two Majors, but no Lieutenant-Colonel. The present Lieutenant-Colonel of the Fourth Is John M. Williams, of Eugene. It Is said that Colonel George O. Toran. of the Fourth probably will be picked to command the reserve corps. The companies of the Fourth that will be converted are one at Ashland, one at Roseburg, two at Eugene, one at Cottage Grove, one at Albany and one at Dallas. The Dallas company voted to remain In the Infantry service and will either be transferred to the Third regiment or maintained as a sep arate company. Tw Takes Pram Third. The two Third regiment companies that will be changed are G. of Oregon Ctty. and K. of Portland. These will be replaced Immediately by other In fantry companies, as the War Depart ment requires that regiments must be kept up to standard In the matter of Organization. One entirely new company of coast artillery will be organised Immediate ly at Portland. Lieutenant C O. Brown, of Company. F. Portland. Is the organiser and ho has TO names on the muster rolls at this time. Full au thorization was given him yesterday to proceed with the organizations as rapidly as possible. Resides a Colonel and two Majors, the new corps will have five staff of ficers, one Adjutant, one artillery en gineer and one quartermaster, each with the rank of captain and one com missary and one ordinance officer, each with the rank of first lieutenant. THEFT IN AUTO ALLEGED Woman Says Man Kobbcrt Her of $30 After Accident, After being once set at rest and dropped by the detectives, the mystery rf an automobile accident last Tues day morning at Dead Man's Curve, on the Llnnton road, has again been re vived, through a larceny complaint made to Captain Baty by a woman who ws In the party. When an automobile driven by Ar thur Chase went Into the ditch, carry ing seven persons, the detectives were temporarily aroused by the supposed discovery of blood on the curtains. Chase said that his passengers were respectable persons and refused to give their names. It was proved that the stains mere not blood and the case was dropped. Now comes Marie Pelmont. a no torious woman, who says ahe was one of the party and that F. A. Farmer, her companion, robbed her of 150 Just after the accident, married another wo man and fled to Spokane. She says she met him en route from Boise, where he had been a parasite. They came here together and registered at the Hotel Leavens as man and wife. It was to that place the woman was tak en In an unconscious condition after the accident. The woman further says that Chase , was driving at the rate of (0 miles an liour and without lights. In view of Ms refusal to aid the police on the former Investigation, be will be re quired to tell what he knows and may be prosecuted. PARK BONDS IN FAVOR Board Would Have People Vote on $2,000,000 Isne. If the arransement Is agreeable to Mayor Rushlight, the Park iioara will k the Council to adopt a resolution authorising placing on the ballot at the coming special election a measure authorizing a JJ.000.000 bond Issue for tha nurchase of nark property. The Board adopted the recommendation yesterday and will submit the question to the Mayor this morning. With his sanction the recommendation will go before the Council at Its next meeting. The measure waa brought up by the Rnard to answer the present demand for new parks In nearly every part of the city. More than 60 petitions have been received asking that sites be ac quired. No money with which, to make purchases is available. The Board authorized the Immediate sale of 1250.000 worth of bonds which are still remaining from the 3 1.000.000 park bond issue of several years ago. Of this amount there will be but $60,000 ir it la said, after the costs of the Terwllllger parkway In South Portland are paid and other necessary expenses for Improvements axe met. Park Superintendent Mlsche says the $1,000,000 bond Issue proposed by the Board Is for exclusive use In acquiring new property. He says the recent 11.000.000 Issue was largely consumed In making improvements. Including streets and lawns. Of the 1250,000 till remaining Mr. Mlsche says he be lieves there will be at least J60.000 left after the city buys the necessary prop erty for the extension of the Terwllli cer DrODerty. all depending on the prices the city Is 'required to pay for the numerous strips oi grouna. FERVORr SEIZES ELKS sriXIVA-Y CREATES ENTHUSI ASM FOR CONVENTION". Grand Exalted Ruler Urges Thnt Lodges In All Part of Country Send Delegations. It Is apparent that John P. Sullivan, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, who Is coming to Tortland next Tuesday, Is creating a lot of enthusiasm for the big convention to be held In this city next July, for every city that he has visited on his present trip has arranged to send a large delegation to the meet ing. His first stopping place after leav ing his home at New Orleans was San Antonio. Tex. Mr. Sullivan told the Elks In that city of the big time In store for them at Portland and Instant ly a Portland club became active. Fifty members pledged their presence In Portland next July. - It Is probable that enough members will be secured from the neighboring; Texas towns to nil a special train. When he arrived in El Paso he found that the enterprising members of the order in that city had not waited for him. but had arranged for a special train to Portland In advance. The fa moua Qulen Babe marching club that has won several prizes at previous conventions Is coming In a body. A band of 150 Elks in addition will com pose the contingent of the excursion. A large number of women will accom pany the El Paso herd. In various California towns the grand ruler has been creating much enthusiasm for the Portland reunion. It Is not likely that Mr. Sullivan will get much rest while he Is In Portland. In addition to the various functions planned by the Elks, numerous other organizations with which he Is affil iated have asked for the privilege of entertaining them. An Informal re ception and "open house" for members of the lodge will be held in the eiks" clubrooms at t o'clock Tuesday even ing. The Press Club has Invited him to visit Its members, but as his time will be so well taken up. It Is probable that the newspaper men. many of whom are Elks, will be Invited to meet Mr. Sul livan and members of his party at the Elks' club. Harry C. McAllister, sec retary of the convention commission, has made thla suggestion. The Ancient Order of Hibernians will give him a reception Wednesday after noon. Secretary McAllister has re ceived requests from the, Knights of Columbus and the Spanish-American War Veterans asking for similar privi leges. HOGS FROM TILLAMOOK FIRST CAR ARRIVES OVER THE ' P.

He was born February 23, 1830, and first took office November 1, 1S92, eight days before Grover Cleveland was Inaugurated President -of the United States for t,he second time, though Captain Bermtngham's appointment came from President Harrison and waa ir.ado three years before he was sworn In. he bavins' succeeded Captain H. S. Lubbock. He was the father-in-law of Surgeon General Stokes, of the United States Navy, and besides Mrs. Stokes Is sur vived by a son, John Bermingham, Jr of San Francisco. When running on the Panama line In 1862 Captain Bermingham, then an engineer, dived beneath a disabled steamer and made temporary repairs, for which he was commended by the owners and to the day of Ms death he carried a watch presented In recognition of the act. He was superintendent of the Ben Holladay line at San Francisco for a time, later being with the Pacltlo Mall In the same capacity and Anally with the Pacific Coast Steamship Company. He made frequent trips to Portland and Puget Sound as supervising In spector, his last visit here having been during the Summer, and though 81 years of age he traveled with ress fatigue than many younger men.

A handsome floral piece was ordered by Portland officials to be placed on the casket. DECEMBER BEGIXS WELJj. Baslne.a May Excel Period's Ship ments In 1910. Although Portland shipped but 941,- 062 bushels of wheat to all points last month, against 1,288,139 bushels for the same period last season, a decrease of 247.077 bushels, for the season to date shipments are only 33,902 bushels be hind last year. In December of last year 1,672,260 bushels were shipped as compared with 1,744.150 bushels In De cember, 19U9, and as 11 European car goes should be floated this month, be-, sides what goes to the Orient and San Francisco, it Is hoped to equal last sea son's showing of 1,706.162 bushels. There Is plenty of wheat at tidewater and the only delay in getting ships away Is the congestion at the Llnnton ballast docks, where five carriers are held. The question of making arrange ments to handle ballast free, because of objections made by masters of vessels to paying 6 cents a tons as demanded by the Columbia Engineering Interests at Llnnton. will be discussed at the next meeting of the Chamber of Com merce. It Is said that the only remedy Is to find owners of land who will shoulder the expense of building bulk heads at the harbor line that they may obtain the material for filling low prop erty.

That cities and towns cannot add voting qualifications to those already set out in the constitution Is the sub stance of an opinion furnished by the Attorney-General's office to John J.
