Wonderful Resources of Ore
gon Are Well Set Out.
The varied products ' of a land of
plenty, crops from the farms and indus
trial exhibits from the factories of "a
busy city, filled the spacious old
Armory building and a huge wooden
annex built around it on two sides in
Kleventh and Davis streets, where
Portland's second annual Manufactur
ers and Land Products Show opened
last night.
"The largest show of its kind ever
held west of Chicago," it had been an
nounced in advance by the manufactur
ers' and industries bureau of the
Chamber of Commerce, which brought
it about. They had figures to prove
it, too. But the figures really were
not needed.
Critical Are Satisfied.
The opening night throngs that
passed through the long aisles of ex
hibits with critical eyes went away
perfectly willing to waive statistics of
any kind. For the show spoke for
Itself more vividly than any figures
could.
To many it was really a surprising
exposition of the resources of this state
snd city. One of these days staid Port
land may awake to the fact that quite
a hum of industry is to be heard within
its borders. Or, as C. C. Colt, presi
dent of the Chamber of Commerce, ex
pressed it more concretely in his re
marks at the formal opening "cere
monies: "Some of you have no doubt, heard
that Portland is not a great manufac
turing city. It may surprise you to
know that there are something over
9n0 manufacturing enterprises here, of
one size or another."
It did surprise 'em, too, as the ap
plause disclosed.
Show Opens on Time.
The big show opened on time almost
to the dot. The formal opening was
preceded by an automobile parade
through 'the streets, members of the
Chamber riding in the cars. The
parade started from the Commercial
Club building, wound through the main
streets downtown and drew up in front
of the Armory shortly after 8 o'clock.
And from then on it was all the four
pay-as-you-enter turnstiles, manned by
infantrymen and artillerymen from the
Oregon National Guard, natty in blue
dreps uniforms with red or white trim
mings, according to the wearer's branch
of the service, could do to register the
incoming crowds.
They fairly flocked into the big mil
' itary headquarters, which for the next
three weeks is turned into an exhibit
palace. It was an appreciative crowd,
too. One big reason was that there was
no much for them to see. for this year's
show is declared on all hands to be
bigger and better by far than that of
last year.
Staae Built In Street.
The formal opening exercises took
place in the auditorium, on the Davis
street side, where a neat little stage
has been built just about where the
middle of the street used to be. . Here

which supervised the building - work;
A. P. Tlateham. superintendent of the
cNhibifs; Circuit Judge Morrow and
others were -seated on the platform.
McElroy's band struck up "Yankee
Doodle," and the catchy air filled the
auditorium in a jiffy.
Ilbj.ct Ik Stated.
"The object of this show," said Mr.
K injislev, who acted as chairman of
Ihc evening:, "is to bring the producer
nearer to the consumer. I know of no
bettor way to do it than by an exhibit
or this kind.
"In ont part of the exposition hall
you will find Home of the products that
are. manufactured in Portland, and In
anotlier part what is grown on the
land in Oregon.
"This show is put on by the Port
land Chamber of Commerce, which is
trying to lay a foundation, and is lay
ing -a foundation, for the largest and
most helpful commercial organization
in the United States."
C. C. Colt, president of the Cham
ber, followed him.
"It is not possible to talk very long
in generalities only." said Mr. Colt.
"We must have a more or less definite
idea of what we talk about. Therefore.
with this idea in mind, we take pleas
ure in having been able to bring here
a greater variety of products even than
at last year- fine show. I am par
ticularly glad to say that there are
'3 counties represented by exhibits."

Woman Investigator Reports That
Even Marriage or Brothers and
Sisters Is Shown to Be Good.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa., Oct. 25. (Spe
cial.) Announcement of the results o
another radical experiment is expected
to be made this week by Dr. Helen
Kin?, whose experiments on a colony
of 60,090 white rats at the Wistar In
stitute' of Anatomy at the University
of Pennsylvania, have convinced her
that marriage of first cousins and even
brothers and sisters would be benefi
cial to the race if the individual pro
genitors were "selected." Results pro
duced by the white rats are expected
also to show whether sex may be de
termined before birth, and whether
male or female can be produced at will.
This admission was made today by
the university authorities, but what
decision had been reached by Dr. Kins
could not be learned before publica
tion of the facts in a medical magazine.
Attention was also called to the fact
that such a plan, if feasible with hu
manity, would be utilized to build up
the populations depleted by the Euro
pean war rather than permit polygamy.

CZENSTOCHOWA. Russia, Sept. 24.
Every morning at o'clock our Prus
sian Captain or fuehrer (meaning
guide) swings himself down from the
frowsy compartment of a second-class
German passenger coach, runs his
commanding eyes along the half dozen
other frowsy compartments of the car
riage and cries resonantly: "Guten
morgen, meine herren. Habcn sie gut
geschlafenT'
At this inquiry a "dozen correspond
ents from half as many countries, who
have by no means gut geschlafen, poke
their disheveled heads from the com
partments and declare with more or
less confidence that they , have indeed
slept well and are many times thank
ful for the Captain's kind inquiry.
Morning Greeting Ceremonious.
"And you, lieber Herr Hauptmann,
have you also slept well?"
"O, thank you many times, my
gentlemen, I have truly slept enor
mously well! Colossally well! I thank
you many times!"
He .then formally shakes hands with
one and all.
This exchange of greetings Is every
morning -identical and Is performed
with great .ceremony wheresoever 6
o'clock happens to find us.. Sometimes
it Is in the swjftch wards of a Russian
town with seven consonants to three
vowels Wiloszezowa is a fair speci
men. Sometimes it Is in the midst of
fields spiderwebbed with lines of aban
doned trenches and with naught but
the ruins of a human habitation in
sight. And sometimes It is in the deep.

was fighting once, as you may know
from the smell of dead horses borne to
you on 'the chill morning breeze.
Captain Alvraya Preventable.
Our Captain's morning appearance,
like his salutation, never varies.
Everybody else looks 'ill conditioned
and blear-eyed and oily and is as disa
greeable to himself as he is to his
companions. To fare for five days and
nights over a besmirched country with
out removing one's clothes does not
conduce to sprucenees. nor does

of mineral water do much to restore it.

Porter Charlton, the American who
has been on trial here charged with
murdering his wife in 1910, was today
condemned to six years and eight
months' imprisonment.
The Jury found Charlton only par

extenuating circumstances.
Owing to amnesty Charlton will
serve only 29 days in prison.
Prisoner Pleads far Self.
Baron Schlaeca, the presiding judge,
before the case went to the Jury,
asked Charlton whether he had any
thing to add to the defense. With
tears in his eyes. Charlton exclaimed
"T trust entirely to Italian justice.
I can only say that I am a -most un
fortunate man."
Both the prosecutor and the counsel
for the defense made stirring pleas,
the former for the imposition of a
heavy sentence, and the latter, com
posed of Slgnors Galaneo and Mlchaelli
Picardi, for acquittal on the ground
that the prisoner was totally irrespon

to the claim that the defendant was
not more than partly responsible and
Lthat there was in addition great provo

The crown prosecutor. Signor Mellini,
denied that Charlton was mentally ir
responsible, even momentarily, at the
time the deed was committed.
The prosecutor denied, that Charlton
had had provocation .for killing his

Mondays War Moves
HEAVY fighting characterizes the
operations in the Balkans on the
Russian front from the Gulf of Riga
down through Galicia, on the Austro-
Itallan line and in the Champagne re
gion of France. i
In the Balkans the Teoutonic allies
and Bulgarians are still gaining
ground against the Serbs almost every
where, but in the south the French
have stepped into the arena and have
decisively defeated the Bulgarians at
Krivolak. on the Saloulki-Nish rail
way, southeast of Veles, giving them
control of the line some 40 miles to the
north of the Greek frontier.
In Champagne the French are busily
engaged in warding off German counter-attacks,
delivered with desperate
determination against a section of an
Important salient, known as "La
Courtlne which the French had pre
viously taken. Some of their trenches
in the center have been recaptured by
the Germans, but latest reports are that
the opposing forces were still fighting
fiercely.
The Russians in the Riga and Dvinsk
regions of Nortltwest Russia have again
assumed the offensive against the Ger
mans, but Berlin asserts that all coun
ter-attacks there have been repulsed,
except in the region of Illoukst. where.
in the face of superior forces, the Ger
mans were forced to withdraw to the
western bank of the Illoukst River.
A gain of some ground west . of
Komarow for the Germans Is recorded
by Berlin as an offset to the Illoukst
retreat.
In addition to the heavy fighting in
the eastern sector of the Austro-
Itallan battle line, which Rome an
ticipates shortly will result in the cap
ture of Gorlzia by the Italians, there
have been three hostile air raids over
Venice. In none of these was great
material damage done, although one
church suffered severely and only three
persons were injured.

CLOCKWORK BOMBS MADE
Saxon Lieutenant Declares Attaches

Consider Plans to Destroy .
Commerce on Atlantic. -
NEW YORK. Oct. 25. Details of a
plot to hamper the shipment of muni
tions of war to the allies by placing
clock-worked bombs on the rudder or
propellors of. ships, so timed that the
ships would be disabled on thetr way
across the Atlantic, were disclosed to
day in the confession of one of five-
men charged in a complaint filed wlt!
a United States Commissioner with con
spiracy to violate a Federal statute.
Following upon the confession of
Robert Fay. a Lieutenant of the Six
teenth Saxony Infantry, who admitted
that he came to this country last April
through an agreement with the Ger
man secret service to blow up or delay
steamers laden with war supplies for
the allies. William J. Flynn, chief of
the Secret Service, tonight filed before
United States CommlssMoner Houghton
a complaint, in which, not only Fay,
but four other men, are charged with
promoting the conspiracy. The hear
ing on the Federal charge was set
for November 4.
Plan Dlseussed With Superiors.
Fay" confessed that while on the bat
tlefield be talked with his superior
officers about a device to blow un
ships, that .later his idea of coming
to America and carrying his schema
through was well received by the Ger
man secret service, that he came well
enough supplied with money to acc
on hi own responsibility, and that he
talked with Captain von Papen, mil
itary attache, and Captain K. Boy-Ed,
naval attache of the German Embassy.
about the plans, but they had refused
to have anything to do with It.
The confession of Fay, who said h
had been decorated with the Iron cross
for fighting in the Champagne district
In France, covers his arrival In the
United States on April 23 last, his mak
ing of clock-worked bombs since then,
and his activities in experimenting
with explosives along the Hudson
River.
Add and Other Chemlcula Found.
Quantities of acid in the room oc
cupied by Fay and Walter L. Scholz
in Weehawken, N. J., and boxes each
containing 320 pounds of chlorate of
potash used in making so-called sugar
bombs, in a boathouse on the Hudson,
had been found after the arrest of -these
men on Sunday. Scholz, a brother-in-law
of Fay, is a mechanic.
Two other men were arrested today
and another, making the fifth, was
named in the complaint, but he had not
been apprehended. The new arrests
were:
.' Paul Deache, , Jersey City, N. J., who
said he was a graduate of Cologne
University and came to the United
States in 1912.
Pr. Herbert Kienzle. 28 years old,
manager of a clock company, charged
in the complaint with having aided in
procuring explosive materials used by
Fay, was committed to the Tombs for
examination on November 4.
Breltuag Not Yet Taken.
Max Breltung. about whose identity
no details were disclosed, also was
named in the complaint ae one of the
conspirators. It was stated that Brei-
tung had not been apprehended.
Other information, which he said It
would be against public policy to re
veal at this time. Chief Flynn declared
would be disclosed later. In his com
plaint to Commissioner Houghton,
Flynn stated that Paul Siebs, formerly
of the German army, had become a
Government witness. It was set forth
that Siebs had received money from
Fay and Breltung for chlorate of
potash on August IS, $112 from Breit
ung, and later S23 from Fay. The
chlorate of potash was said to be a
part of the material found by detect
ives in the boathouse.
The men are charged with conspiring
to violate a section of the United States
criminal code, which says:
"Whoever upon the high seas or in
any other waters within the admiralty
and maritime jurisdiction of the United
States, by surprise or open force, ma
liciously attacks or sets upon any ves
sels belonging to another with an in
tent unlawfully to plunder the same
