SOME BUSY TILL LATE 1916
Kensington Iistrict in Pennsylvania
tyw Is in Condition of lioom,
With' Business Pouring in
From All Sides.
PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 27. With
many mills working day and night to
fill millions of dollars -worth of or
ders which are- pouring in from all
sections of the United States, and from
abroad, September opened in the Ken
cingrton textile district under boom
conditions.
Arrival, of September seems to have
been the signal for opening wide the
business throttle in the .Kensington
district. Orders had been piling up
for several weeks previous to "the first
of the month, but in the last week in
August an avalanche of business
rolled in.
Many mills have enough orders to
lieep them busy until the latter part
of 3 916, and most of them have been
obliged to establish night shifts to
get the work out on time. At night
now, as well as in the day time, the
district resounds with the whir of the
loom and the rattle of machinery.
31 011 y Orders For Home Trade.
A sign significant of the improve
ment of business generally through
out the United States is that a large
portion of the orders which have ar
rived recently are for home trade. In
fact, several of the worsted, woolen
and hosiery mills have received such
a large amount of domestic business
that they have canceled war orders,
and have notified buying agents for
foreign governments that they can
not handle the contracts.
Other mills report a great and en
couraging quickening of trade with
South America, Australia and New
Zealand.
These countries realize fully that
they can expect little from war-torn
Europe for some time to come in the
matter of imports, and they are call
ing insistently on America to supply
their needs. Kensington is turning
out great quantities of worsted, wool
ens and hosiery for all of these coun
tries, and it is expected that the or
ders will be tripled in a month's time.
Business Reported Doom Id c
In fact, Kensington manufacturers
are faced with the problem of capacity
in the matter of handling the great
influx in business. New additions are
being constructed to many factories,
and thousands of new hands have been
engaged, but still there remains a de-;
fieiency in the matter of manufactur
ing capacity.
The Vervia Worsted Company has
established a night shift. A represen
tative of the company said his com
pany had enough orders to last well
into 1916.
"Business," he said, "is booming and
conditions look extremely optimistic.
We were obliged to start night work
to fill our orders on time. Many oth
er mills in the Kensington district
have established night shifts. We are
getting a. lot of domestic business,
which indicates that business is im
proving greatly throughout the coun
try." Other worsted mills which are work
ing night shifts are the Prudential
Worsted Mills, the Brighton Worsted
Mills and the Franklin Worsted Com
pany. A great volume of business was re
ported by the Concordia Silk Mills.
Klne Goods Business Brisk.
"We are doing a fine business," a
representative of this company said,
"in broad or dress goods silk. When
the public begins buying silk dress
goods it is a pretty good sign that
business is picking up, and that peo
ple are feeling the influence of bet
ter monetary conditions. We have
noticed a general improvement
throughout the country. Money is
easier than it was several months ago,
and the confidence of small merchants,
seems to have been restored.
"The outlook is splendid, and it
looks as though business was going
to get better everv day."
A representative of the Oneida Ho
siery Company said:
"Business is booming In the hosiery
trade. Of course, we are handicapped
by the scarcity of dye stuffs, but there
is no let-up in the orders. In fact,
they have been coming in so fast we
have had to curtail a lot of them. We
re doing a constantly growing busi
ness with South America, Australia
and New Zealand."

Ooodby to everybody. T am leavlns; this

me the way I die. Bury me by my poor
mother. Nell, the- outcast and broken

rlivorre papers filed by her husband.
Mrs. Nellie Wells, aged 21. wrote the
above note, and turned on the gas in
her apartments in a roomlnc-house at
J 87 Kleventli street. Thursday after
noon. She was discovered by other
roomers who heard the roaringr of pas
xnd could trace the strong odor half an
hour later, and was soon out of danger.
Resuscitation followed the arrival of
.Assistant City Physician Lawton and
the lungmotor of the Pacific Telephone
& Telegraph Company. The girl was
taken to the home of relatives to be
tared for.
The divorce papers filed by William
Wells, her husband, accuse his wife of
cruel treatment and of humiliating him
before his relatives. People at the
rooming-house said that Mrs. Wells
had attempted to poison herself last
Sunday after a quarrel with her hus
band. She came to Portland from The
Dalles five weeks ago.
The tube of a gas stove was detached
by the young woman and placed under
her when she lay on tho bed after turn
ing on the gas.

Goal Safely Frantic Mother
- Thinks Xot of Punishment.
When Mrs. William Zurcher, of 326
Williams avenur, discovered that she
had overslept Tuesday morning:, her
nrst thought was that her two little
boys, Lewis and Lester, aged 7 and 5
years, respectively, would be late for
school.
She- therefore telephoned to the prin
cipal of the Holladay School and told
him that her two sons would appear
in the classroom rather late and please
to excuse them, for it was her fault.
With the promise that no punishment
would be meted out to her boys Mrs.
Zurcher hunff up the telephone re
ceiver, sent her boys to school and
started for town to do some shopping:.
Children Decide on Trip.
But the mind of Lewis Zurcher could
not grasp any thought but that tardi
ness meant punishment and he pon
dered long on what course of action
to pursue.
The demon punishment loomed like a
Juggernaut on his little horizon, so he
made up his mind which meant tnat
he made up the mind of his brother
also to forsake the schoolroom for the
quietude of his grandfather's farm
near North Plains, on the United Rail
ways.
It did not make any iirrerence to
Lewis and Lester that they had no
money or that North Plains lay at least
20 miles away. They had made up
their minds to visit "granddad" and
their determination knew no obstacle.
Tots Wend Way DoiTn Llnnton Road.
So they started an their journey.
Crossing the river on presumably the
Broadway bridge, the two sturoy laas
made their way heaven alone knows
how to the Llnnton road. They walked
and walked in the direction that they
had taken on the cars when they had
visited their grandparents. . After an
interminably long time, to the childish
imagination, they were picked up by a
jitney driver onthe outskirts of Linn-
ton and taken to the station or tne
United Railways at that place.
They paid for their jitney ride with
a Quarter that they said had been given
them by "an engineer" and when the
car stopped at the Linnton Station they
clambered aboard.
When the conductor discovered that
thev were unattended and were with
out funds he inquired as to their desti
nation and they told him. So they
were allowed to get off at a station
near North Plains and they completed
their journey to -the home of John
Pieren, the "granddad, uninterrupted.
Frantic Mother Recovers Babes.
When time came for the children to
appear at their home after school and
no boys appeared Mrs. Zurcher became
anxious. When an organized search
was made and no Lewis and no Lester
could be found the mother became
frantic After spending many sleepless
hours and after an appeal to the police
had been made, a long-distance call
from the grandparents came over the
wire.
"Lewis says that you sent him here
after eggs," said Mrs. Pieren to Mrs.
Zurcher. But no explanation other
than the one that the boys were safe
meant anything to the once distracted,
though now happy mother. And the
reason given by Lewis was a perfectly
justifiable reason for his presence, at
east to his childish mind.
Yesterday morning the mother of
the two boys took the train for North
Plains and last night brought the run
aways back home.
"Are you going to punish the boys
for running away," was the question
asked Mrs. Zurcher. And two big tears
were mule evidence of the fact that
the thought of punishment was farther
est from her mind.

GIFT HAS LITTLE STRING
Kailroad Says City Bill Too Small,
but Reason Is Discovered.
"You don't say!" exclaimed Commis
sioner Dieck yesterday when his sec
retary. C. E. Atlas, told him that Alex
M. Tupfer, of the United Railways Com
pany, had complained that the city had
sent his company too small a bill for
having resurfaced the pavement in
Stark street when the company took
out its tracks.
Mr. Tupfer said the city had for
gotten to charge the company S per
cent for the engineering and he asked
that the amount be added to the bill.
A little later Mr. . Dieck began to
Investigate and found that there was
"method in his madness." The city had
agreed to maintain the paving provided
the company paid the 5 per cent for
engineering.
CREOSOTED LOGS TESTED
Heavy Beams Snap When Pressure
Reacbes 49,000 Founds.
As though they were toothpicks or
matches, the big new testing machine
in the basement of the City Hall yes
terday snapped off huge fir building
timbers, 14 feet in length, 14 Inches in
width and 7 inches thick. Thj test was
made on timbers prepared by the St.
Helens Creosoting Company to ascer
tain the amount of depreciation in
timbers due to their being treated with
creosote.
Two of the big pieces were cut from
the same tree. One was treated and
the other not. Both were tested to
determine their relative strength. It
was found the creosoting caused but
very little depreciation. The timbers
stood 49,000 pounds, or nearly 25 tons
of pressure, before breaking.

BRYAN PEACE TRIP
CAUSES UNEASINESS
Administration Fears Europe
May Be Misled as to Sen
timent in America.
TREATIES ALSO DISTURB
Apprehension on Latter Score, How
ever, Is Not so Acute, Because
Nations Are Probably Too
Busy to Take Action.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Sept- 30. Administration offi
cials have illy disguised their appre
hension over the fact that William J.
Bryan is going abroad on a personally
conducted peace mission, especially be
cause he is going to Germany and Aus
tria to urge those governments to rat
ify his peace treaties. Apprehension is
not due so much to the fact that Mr.
Bryan will talk peace or will urge rati
fication of the peace treaties as to 'a
fear of what he may say to German and
Austrian officials in private interviews,
especially as to sentiment in the United
States.
This apprehension grows out of the
famous statement made by Mr. Bryan,
as Secretary of State, to Ambassador
Duraba of Austria, after the first Lusi
tania note was dispatched to Berlin.
The Austrian Ambassador, who was
deep in the confidence of Mr. Bryan,
called on the Secretary of State, at the
instigation of the German Ambassador,
to find out exactly what the United
States meant by its note.
Effect of Note Spoiled.
The note, it will be recalled, had
been received favorably by the Ameri
can public and with surprise in Berlin.
Mr. Bryan spoiled the effect of that
note by assuring Ambassador Dumba
that the note had been framed largely
"for home consumption" and need not
be treated too seriously by Germany.
Since he was guilty of that gross of
fense while Secretary of State. Admin
istration officials dread to think of
what Mr. Bryan may say as to public
sentiment In the United States when
he is conferring as a private citizen,
but as ex-Secretary of State, with the
officials of Germany and Austria. Hold
ing decided views as to what he
thinks public sentiment in the United
States should be and being somewhat
blinded to actual public sentiment as
It exists. Mr. Bryan, it is feared, may
convey decidedly false impressions to
the German and Austrian - govern
ments. Treatie 'ot Rightfully Regarded.
There also is apprehension regarding
what Mr. Bryan may do with his peace
treaties. Admittedly, he is going to
urge Germany and Austria to ratify
those agreements and tf he succeeds
the President will be placed in a po
sition where he will have to urge ac
tion on them by the American Senate.
Not that the President does not favor
peace treaties, but the President has
been made palafully aware, as Mr.
Bryan has not. that in time of war
treaties, and especially peace treaties,
are mere scraps of paper.
Futhennore. the friends of the Ad
ministration would not like to see the
President placed in a position by Mr.
Bryan where he would be forced to
have those treaties ratified as an al
ternative or stand accused of unfriend
liness towards Germany and Austria.
However, fears regarding the peace
treaties are not especially acute, be
cause of the belief In official circles
that the German and Austrian govern
ments, being deeply engrossed in war,
will not take time to ratify peace
treaties with the United States.

WASHINGTON'. Oct. 1. Kansas
City was selected as the place for the
1916 encampment of the Grand Army
of tho Republic. The Grand Army, now
meeting here, made the choice almost
by unanimous vote.
While the business session was iff
progress thousands of veterans and
their families flocked to the White
House. There, through a misunder
standing, what had been planned as
a brief reception for a few hundred
members of organizations affiliated
with the Grand Army developed into
a rush, in which nearly 5000 old sol
diers and their wives shook hands with
President Wilson. For two hours they
filed through the historic East Room,
each receiving a smile and a hand
clasp from the President.
Hadirea of "Admlaalon Sold.
Arrangements had been made for the
President to greet members of the
Loyal Legion, the Association of Ex
Prisoners of War. officers of the Union
Army and members of the Women's
Kellef Corps. A report sained circula
tion, however, that all Grand Army vis
itors were Invited, and to add to the
confusion, many of those in the crowd
that appeared when the hour for the
reception arrived wore badges which
they said had been sold them for 25
cents, with the understanding that they
would admit the wearers to the White
House.
Excited men and women clamored
for admission at all the gates, where
the policemen had instructions to ad
mit only those wearing a certain kind
of baflpe. When the trouble was at
its height Secretary Tumulty hurried
out and restored quiet by ordering
that everybody be permitted to enter.
Men aol Women Overcome.
Already several men and women had
fainted, and others were so exhausted
that they had to be taken inside the
White House and revived.
When it came time to decide upon
the place of meeting for next year,
the names of Atlantic City and Kansas
City were offered. Later, however,
support was withdrawn from Atlantic
City, and Kansas City was selected by
an almost unanimous vote. Several
committee meetings, campfires, re
unions and receptions occupied the at
tention of the veterans and their
friends tonight.
Thousands of the veterans left Wash
ington Thursday. To thoe who de
parted the parade of yesterday was the
crowning event of the encampment.
The Women's Relief Corps, organized
33 years ago, held its annual meeting

MR. rOYVEItS COKltEXTTS STORY
Judge McCrcdio Gets Telegram Re
garding MLscoiibirued Talk.
W. W. McCredie. president of the
Portland baseball club, received the
following telegram yesterday from
John F. Powers regarding his pub
lished move against Portland:
"Newspaper stories here regarding
Portland club are misconstruction of
statement I made in regard to an
eight-club circuit. Am very sorry they
misconstrued same. You may use this
telegram in any way you wish. John
F. Powers."
President McCredie said he Is draft
ing a league review that will be given
out later in the week.
"I still stick to ray remarks regard
ing the matter," he said finally, when
pressed for a statement. "All except a
typographical error in which 1 was
made to say that expenses on the road
were 31 more than when a team Is at
home. Some linotyper cheated the ho
tels and railroads out of 3999 by failing
to work his little finger often enough
on the zero key. It should have read
31000."

How to Heal
Skin-Diseases
A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive.
nome treatment for
people suffering
with eczema, ring
worm, rashes and
similar itching,
burning skin trou
bles. At any reliable
druggist's get a jar
of resinol ointment
and a cake of resi
nol soap. These are
not at all expensive.
"With the resinol
soap and warm water bathe the af
fected parts thoroughly, until they are
free from crusts and the skin is soft
ened. Dry very gently, spread on a
thin layer of the resinol ointment, and
cover with a light bandage If neces
sary to protect tho clothing. This
should be done twice a day. Usually
the distressing itching and burning
stop with the first treatment, and the
skin soon becomes clear and healthy
again. Sample free. Dept. 8-R, Ttesinol.
