STRUGGLE TO PAY

Dr. Hillis Cuts Liabilities From
$800,000 to Less Than
$200,000.

2sot.cs After Ventures in ' His
Enterprise Prove Unprofitable.
Suits Have Iong PenUed.
The Rev. tr. Newell Dwight Hillis,
of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, whose
unsuccessful ventures Into tho field of
speculation and investment called forth
his explanation in his historic pulpit
Ju Brooklyn Sunday, has been lik
ened by his friends, many of whom he
has In Portland, to Sir Walter Scott,
Mark Twain and General U. S. Grant,
all of whom, having plunged them
selves into debt, devoted their lives to
paying creditors dollar for dollar as
nearly as possible. Dr. lllllis' liabili
ties at one time amounted to about
$500,000. although he had many assets.
Dr. Hillis' creditors at one time num
bered among others some big men in
the world's affairs. Various lawsuits
started even some years ago revealed
the fact that Dr. Hillis had bought
coal lands In the Northwest and turned
them over at a profit; that he engaged
in timber enterprises and in them in
terested Sir Alfred Harmsworth, now
Lord Northcliff; Pomeroy Burton, once
a newspaperman of Brooklyn and New
York, but now in Lord Northcliff's em
ploy in England, and Deish J. Hunt, the
New York capitalist.
Repayment I Made.
All of these men bought stock in
the I. D. Hillis Logging Company, but
afterwards as thai enterprise proved
Unprofitable Dr. Hillis repurchased
their stock, giving his personal notes
In payment. It was In repaying these
notes that he lectured and wrote so
studiously and steadily the last few
years, the panic of 1907 and the strin
gency of 1911. coupled with the Kuro
pean war outbreak, bringing his re
sponsibilities to an issue.
Frank L. Ferguson, of Brooklyn, for
five years Dr. Hillis" financial agent,
in letters written to Portland at the
time of the suit filed by Brayton &
Lawbaugh, Ltd., of Chicago, to collect
about $12,000 in connection with the
business of the P. D. Hillis Logging
Company, of British Columbia, ions
overdue, snld that he had handled
about $1,000,000 for Dr. Hillis during
his incumbency as Dr. Hillis' financial
agent. It wns in this logging company
that Dr. Hillis wna supposed to have
interested his nephews, and on the ven
ture's becoming a losing one, to have
taken over the responsibilities of the
company "because he had introduced
his nephews into business and obtained
money from banks on the strength of
his own personality," i
Nephews Later Uualify Statement.
Tho nephews later qualified he
tatement. saying their uncle was not
paying their debts, but only debts
which he had contracted on his own
account. Dr. Hillis" nephews are
Harry and Percy Hillis. His venture
with them was about nine yeass ago.
nccording to information given out at
the office of ex-tfenator C. W. Fulton
in Portland last July when Dr. Hillis
van served with notice of the suit
while he was lecturing at the Glad
stone Chautauqua.
In a letter, July 27. Mr. 1" ion
said he had endeavored to p'-x Dr.
Hillis from collapse and financial
ruin and that it was "not necessary
for Dr. Hints to make scapegoats of his
nephews."
When Dr. Hillis was in Portland he
briefly, but reluctantly, explained his
business difficulties and said he had
compromised for $(1000 in the Brayton
&. Lawlaugli suits. , .
' Message ttent to Mr. Kulton. -
Mr. Ferguson, July 16, soon after
the suit papers appeared in Portland,
sent the following telegram to .Mr.
Fulton:
"Dr. Hillis purposely misinformed
you to shield himself, therefore your
communication to Brooklyn, Kagle es
sentially false. In five years 1 have
received and disbursed for him $1,000,
000. He paid his own debts and his
nephews', but never paid, nor was
asked to pay, their personal debts or
debts of the logging camp. He now
owes various creditors about $'00,000
and his Eastern attorneys are endeav
oring to compromise with his cred
itors.'.' On July 27 Mr. Ferguson wrote he
had not received a reply from Mr. Ful
ton, who said Saturday night that he
knew comparatively little of the trans
actions and was not Dr. Hillis' attor
ney. Statement In Challenged.
On July :l K. D. Hillis in a letter to
Mr. Ferguson said ha hada letter from
his uncle, asking hini not to do any
thing until they heard from him. In
this same letter P. D. Hillis wrote:
"There can be no appeal from such
a charge (Dr. Hillis' statement in, Port
land), except a trial in the courts un
less the Doctor advised the press that
the statement was given out by an at
torney and was misleading." Dr. Hillis'
statements in Portland were given out
reluctantly and net on his suggestion.
- The approximate liabilities of Dr.
Hillis June I. 1910, were $764,000.
On April 1, 1915. the liabilities were
approximately $181,000. much of his
property on which bums were due in
1810 havincr been liquidated.

BOS TON. Sept. 20. Lessons drawn
from the war in Europe were discussed
by Vice-President Marshall and Will
iam .7. Bryan before different audiences
fcunday.
t-pcaking at a "world peace service,"
conducted by an organization of Odd
fellows, Mr. Marshall said there was a
need for "adequate steps to preserve
our republic. He disclaimed being , a
militarist, but added: "I would like to
bave a citizen soldiery, by which I
mean a body of citizens whose tlrst
.choice would be the Hag of the United
States, and would know which end "of
a gun to put to their shoulders."
The country should be resolved, he
said, to maintain peace, so long as it
could be had with honor, and to pre
serve neutrality and to uphold the Pres
ident. Mr. Bryan, who delivered a lecture
at DravesflelaS partioularly opposed
"preparedness."
"I believe if wa were as well pre
pared as some would haVe us be, we
now would be in this war. Tne pre
paredness now asked, if effected, prob
ably will lead to war instead of pre
venting it," he said.
The ex-Secretary said no nation chal
lenged us, but "that if any of the mad
men of Europe should challenge us, our
Nation would be Justified in saying,
No, we will not battle with you: we
have 100.000.000 of people to guard, we
have countless ideals to preserve, and
we will not go down and wallow in the
mud of war with you.' "
NEW YORK, Sept. 20. The league
to em on e peace, or which William
Howard Taft is president, in a state
ment issued here today, declared that
sufficient preparation for adequate de
fense is in no way inconsistent with
the purpose of thec.league,- but rather is
essential thereto.

charted coral .reef off Tutuila, July
16, 1914, which tore a hole 4 feet by 13
in the fore hold and magazine. The
pinnacle of coral broke off and re
mained iti the hole. This made it pos
sible to tow the vessel to Pago Pago,
where, in a few hours after her arrival,
she sank alongside the dock

vessel was raised and temporarily re

Drudges in All Walks.
"The man with the hoe is the type
of all who allow themselves to be iden
tified with the soil alone. He is a
warning to those who let the material
crowd out the soiritual In their lives."
This was the statement . of Dr. Carl !
Gregg Doney, president of Willamette
University, who preached last night in
the First Methodist Church. He took
as an Inspiration for his sermon the
famous painting of Millet and the poem
of the same title. "The Man With the
Hoe," by Edwin Markham.
In the absence of Dr. Frank L. Love
land, who is ill, the assistant pastor.
Rev. Henry' T. Greene, presided, and
Bishop It. J. Cooke assisted in the
service.
Of Millet's masterpiece. Dr. Doney f
said: "lhis great painting was the
idealism of a reality." The poem he
termed an interpretation . of a reality.
"The man with the hoe is to be found
in every walk of life," said Mr. Doney.
"It is diflicult to be spiritually clean
in lilthy, dark surroundings. Social
workers are realizing this and are en
couraging and working for better con
ditions. "But it is not only the poor who may
be lacking In spirituality. Tho mer
chant who thinks only of his store and
his business Interests is a drudge. The
man with tho hoe should be a warning
to him. He who has no time for his
family, home and church is a drudge."

WOMEN TOLD TO
MARRY REAL MEN
Dr. Hinson Warns - Against
Harkening to Pleading of
"Nobody Horns7' Kind.
HASTY LOVE DANGEROUS
Sex Urged (o Disregard Entreaties
of Gaudily Dressed. Clrgarelte
Smoking and Examination
Dodging Imitations of Men.
DR. HIXSOX'S KIND OF" A MAN
A WOMAN SHOULD MARRY.
Worth while morally.
If cornered he would not lie,
or bite at bait Or bribe.
He should not have a brow
on which nature had written
"Nobody home." "
A man spiritually, intellect
ually and physically.
He should not be a, tailor's
model, rior wear a tie loud
enough to rival a circus band.
He Bhould not lapse morally
and "come back" with new
"resolutions."
Don't be in a hurry to get married
know the man you marry but above
all marry a MAN.
This was the advice given to women
by Dr. W. B. Hinson at the White Tem
ple Sunday night, when he preached
upon "The Man You Ought to Marry."
It was, a sermon to which he had given
much study, he said, but one that he
could deliver without the trepidation
that will accompany his evening serv
ice next Sunday, when he will speak of
"The Woman You Ought to Harry."
There are many things that a man
should be before a good woman should
accept his pleading, according to Dr.
Hinson. He should be worth while
morally; he should be a man who. cor
nered in some fashion, would not lie.
bribed by any bait would not bite,
threatened by any combination of evils
would stand fast In his integrity; he
should bo a man who would not scoff
at religion; he should have character;
he should be a man, physically, intel
lectually and spi-ritually.
Tailor' Model" Not Man.
"The man you marry should not be a
tailor's model," said the preacher,
"wearing a sport collar four inches
wide, a tie loud enough to rival a circus
band, an oasis of green socks between
trouser and shoe, and a chin fit only to
hold up cigarettes of the 20 for 5 cents
variety. There ought to be a law
against calling such a thing a man."
"Be careful of hereditary taint or
phS'sical blemish." said the speaker.
"A happy marriage Is what the Oregon
law look ft at when It says that certain
tests must be made. That is why many
oeople have to cross the river to Wash
ington to be married not all. but
many."
The pastor further went on to say:
The man you marry should not have
a brow on which Nature has written
'Rooms to Let'; he should not be a man
who lapses from ordinary morality and
comes back with his sickening new
resolutions.' "
filiate In Marriage Warned.
Haste In marriage was strongly ad
vised against, the preacher declaring
there was a great dealof philosophy in
the proverb of "Marry in haste, repent
at leisure."
"You have to walk a long road to
gether when you're married." said Dr.
Hinson, pointing ont the necessity of
care in selecting a mate. "There are
two parts of the marriage ceremony
this recalls 'Till death do you part'
and 'So long as you both shall live.'
Death may part you before the body
dies, but remember you. live on for
ever. "There are sad miles on this long
road, direful as you may be and hap
pily married though you are, yet some
days will be dark and dreary. There
will be sickness, sorrow, disappoint
ment, cross purposes along that road,
and for those sad miles you need a
MAN walking alor.g beside you not a
caricature of a man."
Hesitate Before Divorce, Advice.
The pastor's A'oice trembled as he
continued:
"Too late do you say? I thought of
that question in my study and for hours
cast about for something to say In re
ply, and I have not got it yet. You
surely lost the fairest flower in life's
garden if you lost lhis happiness. If
you walk a long road with a gray sky
and moaning wind in your ears, God
help you. You who do not feel -this
pray for the ones who can say 'At last
I'm getting my heart's secret voiced In
public'
"I wouldn't g. to the divorce court
if 1 could possibly help it. I believe
sometimes that separation is right.
When a man and woman wish that they
were divorced, they are divorced in
heart. If other lives enter Into that
relationship, hesitate longer."
Dr. Hinson said women do not de
mand enough of men. and 'he main
tained that If they demanded more, the
very demand wo-iH create the supply.
NEAR BEER TO BE MADE
HEIXHAIll) BREWERY PREPARES
FOR PROHIBITION DAYS.
Management Says Industry, Represent
ing Investment of More Than
l,r.OO.OOO, Will Not Be Ruined.
The Weinhard brewery, representing
an investment of between a million
and a half and a million and three
quarter dollars. Is not to be ruined by
the state prohibition law that goes into
effect January 1, according to Paul
Wessinger, the manager. Mr. Wessin
ger has already made extensive plans
to begin the manufacture of near-beer
when the manufacture of alcoholic
liquors is prohibited within the state.
The Weinhard brewery has been in
constant operation for 53 years. The
yearly output of the brewery at pres
ent is 150,000 barrels and 100 men are
employed. The amount of taxes paid
by the Weinhard estate every year to
the County of Multnomah l estimated
by Mr. Wessinger as $68,000. Beside
the taxes paid to the county, more
than l.UO0.O0O has been paid by Mr.
Wessinger in the last 11 years to the
Federal Government.
"I do not intend that all the indus
tries of the sort I am interested in
shall be taken out of the state at the
beginning of the new year." said Mr.
Wessinger. "I do not know how many
men on my present payroll I will be
able to, retain when we begin the
manufacture of non-alcoholic bever
ages, but I will retain as many as 1
can.

Willamette Iron A Steel Works Head
Tbousht to Be Hither la Eng
land or France.
The Willamette Iron & Steel Works,
of Portland, is believed to be negotiat
ing for some of the European munitions
contracts. Bert C. Ball, president and
manager of the company, has been ab
sent from the city for some time, and
is thought to be either In England or
France in an effort to secure some con
tracts for his firm. He was reported
in London last week,
A. G. Labbe, vice-president of the
company, when asked last night if
Mr. Ball was in Europe, said he did
not know.
"Mr. Ball has been East for, some
time and I have not heard from him
for quite a while," he said.
Mrs. Ball also disclaimed 'any knowl
edge of her husband's whereabouts. She
said she did not know when he was
coming home.
Why the Willamette Iron & Steel
Works has not accepted some of the
available contracts when so many have
Jjeen let In the United States has here
tofore been a question. It is believed
that the Portland firm is fully as capa
ble of handling tile work as Eastern
plants.
At one time one of the officers was
reported as saying the firm didn't ac
cept any war contracts out of a desire
to avoid complications.
The heads of the Portland firm have
said also that it would interfere with
other work which they have. However,
it is believed that now, with the Win
ter coming on, when they probably will
not be so rushed, they may be attempt-;
ing to secure something to keep their
plant running with a full force.
Foreign agents were in Portland sev
eral months ago. Shortly afterward
Mr. Ball left for the East.
NEAR-BRIDE CHANGES MIND
Pair Got L4ceii!c, Arg-ue in Whis
pers, and Cancel It.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14. He was 24
and she was 18. At the marriage li
cense bureau they swdre they were
Harry P. Bair and Gretta F. Brown,
both of Baltimore. It was 3 o'clock
when they got their permit to wed.
Most couples hurry off as soon as
thy have the precious document. But
Mr. Bair and Miss Brown rrlerely
sought two nearby chairs. At 3:30 they
were still there. Both were downcast,
the young man occasionally pacing up
and down the' room. He would return
and whispered conversations would fol
low. Clerks in the office sensed
something wrong.
At 4 o'clock, as the doors closed, the
couple walked to the desk and request
ed that their license be canceled. The
wise ones in the office the old mar
ried men and elderly . bachelors de
cided that Mr. Bair and Miss Brown
were right better now than too late.
The couple left City Hall, walking
aimlessly toward F street. Some
blocks from the hall tho disconsolate
two were asked for an explanation.
"Oh. we thought it best to put if off
because we don't want our friends to
know just yet." Miss Brown said, with
some hesitation, ridding carefully that
her mother "knew all about it." She
clinched her statement by brushing an
untidy lapel on the man's coat.
"If you didn't want your friends to
know, why didn't you take out your
license in some small town? Rockvllle.
for instance. They close the Court
House there at 6 o'clock," they were
told.
"It was then. -about 4:15. Mr. Bair
looked .jU. Miss Brown and she looked
back.
"V never thought of that," ex
claimed the girl.
They hurried for a car. A casual
observer might have noticed it was
bound for Rockville.

tain Rupert said yesterday that he had
promised to turn out later and will don
the wnite and red of the club for sev
eral contests during the season.
Johnny Parsons, the former Oregon
star, was out to practice yesterday
morning. He sent word that he would
be on the job tomorrow evening when
the team will again work out under
the arc lights on Multnomah Field.
There Is still talk of Parsons returning
to Oregon, but If not he will wear the
scarlet and white.
Scrimmage featured yesterday's
practice and As the Columbia Park
squad failed to put in its appearance
the men were divided into two teams
with the veterans making up the first
team, led by Captain Rupert, and the
new members and a sprinkling of old
timers composing tho second squadron,
which was led by llddie Humphries,
who played guard.
" Promising Itccruit Found.
About a half hour's hard scrimmag
ing was indulged in and the pigskin
warriors knew that something had
been a-f. mp-llshed when they had fin
ished. The workout pleased Rupert,
who uncovered a promising looking
youngster, named Anderson, who
worked at half for the rookies. The
now man weighs in the vicinity of ITU
pounds and starred on one of the Se
attle high school teams last year.
Other new men were McCann, a 210
poundcr. who played for Stanford a
few seasons ago; Walker, a local man,
who played on an amateur eleven last
season; Klchenlaub. a 165-pounder, who
played last year with the Sellwood
amateur team, and Watson Philbrook,
brother of George Philbrook. Watson
is a big fellow built on the same plan
as his brother and tipping the beam at
210 pounds. He played several seasons
ago with Pacific University and later
with Willamette.
- Tentative l.ineun Chosen.
The three guiding spirits of the
squad have not yet decided what the
club lineup will be against Oregon Sat
urday although It is probable that tne
lineup that composed the first team
yesterday in practice, will be the one
that starts against Bczdek's warriors.

WHEN IS WILD DUCK WILD
Opponent of Aigrettes Says $ Kind
Is Often Pond liaised.
WASHINGTON, t-ept. 10. -When is
a wild duck?"
This is the newest itiszle in the Na
tional capital. It is propounded ty T.
Gilbert Pearson. National authority on
game birds, who came down hero to
tell the Attorney-General there wer; too
many illegal aigrettes in the Fail mil
linery. When you go Into a hotel and don't
care how much money you spend and
look down the bill of fare to the place
where il says "$6." and then order
"wild duck," now are you going to
know It is "wild"?
That's what Washington is wonder
ing. Pearson says one can't tell. He
has got the gourmands guessing by
his declaration that half the "canvas--back"
ducks for which would-be epi
cureans are paying from $S to $6 arc
merely typographical errors" on the
bill of fare. Privately he has confided
to some of the bird sharks down here
that most of the "wild ducks" on the
hotel menus were raised In a yard and
a pond with a fence around them. He
positively defies anybody to toll the
difference when the waiter brings
them in.
Just because a wild duck is wild is
no reason, Pearson says, why it should
taste any better than a tame "wild"
duck which has abandoned its wild
ways and settled down into a plain,
garden variety, businesslike duck. He
says tliat men are making money rais
ing "wild ducks" and that the Nutional
Audubon Society, of which he is sec
retary, is encouraging the industry as
a means of preserving the game.
