Delegations from Port land and 27 other cities and towns in Oregon tonight took Salem by storm, captured the State House and held it until they had assured the members of Joint Senate and House committee on ways and means that the state will support an appropriation of between 1300.000 and $500,000 for the adequate representation at the Panama-Pacific Exposition. Unbounded enthusiasm prevailed from the time the varlo.a delegations from the state reached alem until the speakers representing the different sections had said their sections of the state would stand by the legislature In' an adequate appropriation and had taken their night trains for. home. The largest delegation was that from Portland, but it was by no means more In earnest or more enthusiastic than the others. Every one present seemed filled with the desire to have Oregon represented at the great ex position In San Francisco in 1915 and all were outspoken in the belief that anything in the way of so-called econ omy at this time undoubtedly would mean a very poor idea being conveyed to the world as to the Interest of Ore gon people In what was declared to be a celebration of one of the greatest achievements in nistory, ma tion of the big canal that is to bind the Pacific to the Atlantic and bring this Coast Into Its own. Cheera Greet Senator' Pledae. At the conclusion of the meeting, which was held in the House cham ber, and at which State Senator Per kins, of Multnomah County, presided, he pledged himself and the members nt the committee on ways and means to in appropriation as neary adequate as ran consistently be made, taking Into consideration the many things for which funds will be asked this ses sion. Great cheers greeted hla state ments, and the various delegations :cft amid enthusiasm. There were acttiully 94 out of 100 members of the dolcsratlon named by Julius L. Meier, president of the Ore son State Commission to the Exposi tion, who reached Salem tonight. This was considered remarkable. as all those named are men of business af fairs, who have much to look after in their various establishments. They reached here at o'clock and le:t at J:5(- f jr home on their special train. The next larsest delegation respond !nc to the invitation was that from In oependence. but there were very cred itable delegations from other cities and towrs. and it was said by those in attendance that the meeting was a most representative one. Kntlre State Concerned. Tom Richardson, original booster for Oregon and one of the best-known men in the state, was called upon to Intro duce the speakers of the evening and did it in bis usual pleasing manner. Every section of the state was repre sented by speakers and it was made clear that this is not a Portland affair, but that it la a thing of the greatest vommercial interest to all Oregon. Edgar B. Piper, president of the Port lard Commercial Club, waa the first to be Introduced. He spoke at consider able length, as he represented not only tho Commercial Club, but all of the clubs of Portland, as well as the Ore gon Development League.

The speeches aroused little Interest because, as the Earl of Halsbury pathe tically observed, the position of the un.,. wa now that of an ordinary debating club the peers could express their views and reject the bill, dui tney coul-d not prevent it from becoming law. Nevertheless, the largest muster of peers since the fateful evening they passed the parliament bill assembled in the House and bejewelled peeresses thronged the side galleries. The scene was lacking in the dramatic excitement which accompanied the Lords' rejection of Mr. Gladstone e bill In 1893 by a far larger majority, 378. Lord Morley, In closing tho debate, remarked the absence of the ferocity which characterized the debates on the Gladstonian measures, and, replying to Lord Landowners warning that the giving of home rule to Ireland would be a menace to England, if England ever were involved in serious interna tional trouble, reminded Lord Lans- downe that bis own land policy would give Ireland cash or credit to the extent of 200,000,000. British money, and that Lord Lansdowne scarcely would be likely to do that if he really believed that Ireland was likely to become Eng land's enemy. Lord Curzon of Kedleston, in a speech earlier in the evening, also referred to the listlessnesa the publio had shown over the bill and to "the deplorablo and unutterable flatness pf the debates in the House of Commons." The division was on party lines, practically the whole of the Episcopal bench voting against the bill. LONDON. Jan. 30.

Brlstow, progressive Repub lican, and Lodge. Republican, led the fight against a restriction of the Presi dential term. Senator Williams, Demo crat, proposed a four-year term, with the privilege of one re-election, but his amendment was so drawn as to prevent Colonel Roosevelt from seeking another election.

KING'S LIBRARY IS LOOTED Student Assistant Slakes Money By Selling Precious Volumes. COPENHAGEN, Jan. 28. (Special.) A sensation has been created in court circles bv the discovery that an assist ant in King Christian's private library has stolen and sold a number ot old and valuable books from the royal col lection. He la a young student, son of a well known physician, a notorious viveur and fond of making himself conspicu ous, in which effort his unusual height materially assisted him. His anteced ents do not appear to have been the best, but the librarian had no suspicion whatever. This young man carefully removed the royal "ex libris" plates, and In his i : , . u f nnA.

The curtain may rise on the second act of the Balkan war next Monday.

Indeed, the bombardment has been scheduled for 7 o'clock Monday night. vt even at this 11th hour, was in no wise is assured. Only a few hours before the allies proclaimed their mo mentous decision the Ottoman govern ment presented Its reply to the pointed note of the powers of January 17. Yoong Tarka Change Front. Never has a diplomatic problem taken such swift and surprising changes as these negotiations' for peace. The Young Turks, who seized the govern ment with shouts of defiance, have undergone a marvelous transformation. Instead of drawing the battle line at the question of surrendering Adrian ople, they offer a compromise which comes so near meeting the Bulgarian demands that a settlement should not be impossible and they leave the Aegean islands to the disposition of the powers. The difference between what Con stantinople is ready to give and what Bulgaria is willing to accept had been reduced to such small proportions that c.'sn some of the Balkan delegates be lieve a compromise may yet be found. Sbrinea, Only, Demanded. Constantinople now asks simply the retention of that section of Adrianople where the holy shrines are situated. Bulgaria alawys means to leave the mosques and shrines to Turkey and even to confer the right of extra-t.er-ritoriajity, this giving them something of the status of the Vatican in Rome. The vital differences between the two nations amount merely to Turkey's de manding the shrines and the sections surrounding them.

Autos Rob Orchestra Seats, Vaude ville Empties Balcony, "Movies'' Get Gallery Patrons. WASHINGTON. Jan. 30. Henry V. Savage, the theatrical producer, deliv ered a round attack tonight upon New York dramatic critics at the annual "hobby night" of the National rsi Club. Development of art and the drama in America, he said, was hampered by metropolitan critics, who wrote "from the standpoint of personal opinion. "Rather than an honest criticism, which we welcome," he said, "the critic too often searches for a nail upon which to hang some cleyer sentence by which he expects to enhance his own popularity. When managers are producing the drama with odds of ten to one against success, they are enti tled to Intelligent criticism. The au tomobiles are taking theater-goers from the orchestra scats, vaudeville takes them from the balcony and the movies take them from the gallery. And the movies are thriving without the critic." Dr. William A. White, superintendent of the Government Hospital for the Insane, made a plea for the extension of facilities of such institutions to reach cases in "the borderland." "The publio health service," he said, "with its quarantine laws and cam paign for health, has increased the span of this generation's life at least ten years. Now we should learn how to live these ten years well." Secretary . Meyer commended . the American newspapers for their attitude in favor of maintaining the strength of the Navy. Edward B. Moore, Com missioner of Patents, and John Philip Sousa were the other speakers. WOMEN SOLD INTO SLAVERY IN GOTHAM 26,500 Are Controlled by "Vice Trust." EARNING IN YEAR $57,200,000 S. H.

By agreement of counsel yesterday United States District Judge Wolverton fixed April 8 as the time when the final argument will be heard by that court in the Government land grant forfeiture suit against the Southern Pacific Com pany. This will be the beginning of the end of this famous suit that has been in progress several years and involves many millions of dollars in Oregon tim ber and farming lands. The record Is very voluminous and it may take Judge Wolverton several weeks, after the argument, to arrive at a decision, and whichever way this may be, an appeal will be taken higher. It Is probable, however, that the Circuit Cout of Appeals immediately will certify the decision of Jndge Wolver ton to the United States Supreme Court in order that a decision may be reached as early as possible. Many hundreds of thousands of acres of land are tied up in this suit and cannot be available to settlement, with a perfect 'title, until the final decision. MRS.

That a slave market, where women ara sold into lives of prostitution, la actually carried on in New York City is a statement of Samuel H.. London, the Rockefeller investigator of whitaj slave traffic, whose testimony before the Curran committee, startled New1 York. The' most appalling feature of Mr. London's findings is that here in New; York commercialized vice flourishes. The 26,500 women who are in thn grip of the "white slave trust" in Man hattan and Brooklyn alone have an, earning power a year ot $57,200,000 Most of the money goes to the trust, the women receiving only a scant in come. This slave market occupies th back room of a dingy so-called restau rant in Clinton street. Here, between 1 and 3 o'clock in the morning, bartcrers in women gather. Bidden Become Noisy. When there is a particularly hand some lot of women to be disposed of, the slave market, so the investigator reports, shows as much activity as tho stock exchange on a busy day. Bidders for human beings shout their bids and work themselves into an excitement that is equal to anything the street knows, and they shout their figures so loudly, they can be heard in the street. The women are not put on the block. Bidders have examined them pre viously and know the ones they want. The average annual earnings of a white slave in New York City is $2200, but in the West they earn as much as $5000 a year. "The first remedy. for the white slave traffic Is to cut off the source of sup ply," said London today. "About 95 per cent of the women in this life are either abducted and forced Into It or are lured Into it by false promises." Auctions Held Weekly. The system has it so arranged that the same women and the same houses 'vere auctioned each week in the back room of the Cllnton-strect restaurant. The auctioneer, whose name London says he knows, as well as those ot the traffickers and procurers, was an aged man who has been engaged in tho traffic of commercialized vice for many years. Another point brought out by Lon don might go a long way toward ex plaining the mysterious disappearance of Dorothy Arnold and many other young girls who were seemingly swal lowed up. Traffickers send women into the congested shopping centers, where they meet girls " who are unaccom panied. They invite the girl to dine, then she is accidentally introduced to one of the white slave agents, and he, usually well dressed and seemingly an. educated man. wins the girl with a promise and kidnaps her. London says that the "vice trust" has agents working In sweatshops. Here they become acquainted with tho hest-looking girls, and, because of the hard time the workers have, the re mainder is simple. 'ev- York City t hief Source. "One can get an idea of the extent of this white slave trade in New York City when I say there are 26,500 women who are white slaves in New York, against 37,600 in all the other states." said London. "Why do they multiply here so rapidly? It Is chiefly because of economic conditions. Whlte-slavcra know it is easier to get women whera surroundings are squalid. Another rea son is the glare and glitter and nar. rowness of. the New York mind that there Is no place outside of New York. "The traffickers are always after what they terra a 'green- meal ticket. That is the way they refer to girls they kidnap or girls that they induce to leave factories. Foreign, unedu cated girls that they bring here they call 'factories,' because of their great earning power. An American Insists on a few rights, such as expensive clothes and the like, but foreign girls are satisfied with so much a month."
