Thursday, Alder-street dock. Main 914, A 6112. Adv. Bishop Bashford, Methodist mission ary who has been located in Pekin, China, for the past eigs years, and one of the best-versed men in the Orient on Chinese affairs', yesterday de clared that two immense problems con fronted China today. The first of these, he said, is the all-important one the question of the retention of Chinese sovereignty. The other what sort of a political organization China should have he as serted, was lost in the first. "Yuan Shi Kai," declared Bishop Bashford, t the proper man at the head of China, today. He is the providential man to handle the, crisis in which China has been placed." 1 It was the contention of Bishop Bashford that it would be unwise to re-establish a monarchy in that coun try at this time, now since a republic has been formed. China BeRlnnlnK to Awaken. It is necessary, he said, that China should retain her sovereignty, for she was just beginning to awaken to her possibilities, and that her advancement during the past few years had not been eclipsed by the advancement in any other Oriental country. The influence of Bishop Bashford ex tends to both Corea and Japan, a fact that precluded the possibility of his giving an intimate discussion or tne real position of China. That it is necessary for the United States to retain commercial relations with China is the opinion of Bishop Bashford. He declared that the eleva tion of the Chinese empire to a level with this country commercially, in dustrially and economically, through Christian institutions and education, would mean that that country would offer this one of the greatest fields for commercial endeavor. , China Pis; Iron Available. Before the passage of the La Fol Iete bill, characterized by Bishop Bash ford as "that miserable shipping bill," he odbtained from Captain Robert Dol lar, owner of the line of steamships operating under that name, the state ment that pig iron was available from tho Hanyang Iron Works for $13 per ton. A duty of $2.50 per ton was paid upon its entry to this country, and it was sold on the open market at $22 per ton. He also gathered from an interview from Sir Michael Frewen, an eminent member of Parliament thoroughly ac quainted with Chinese commercial con ditions, that that iron was produced at $5 per ton. With the initiation of the 1a Fol lette bill it was impossible to compete with foreign labor, and the Dollar ships had been disposed of. Bishop Bash ford declared that the Japanese real ized the immense opportunity in that trann. and had bought ships to engage in Chinese trade. Wonderful Ponalbllltles Cited.. "The center of the commercial world trade has shifted from London to New York within the last year. In 50years more lt will have shifted to this Coast," declares Bishop Bashford. Although the country has awakened wonderfully in the last decade to its commercial possibilities, it has not yet obtained any conception of the won derful possibilities that lie in China and the Malay archipelago," said Bishop Bashford last night. 'The Malay archipelago is one of the most fruitful fields for American trade there is," i8 the belief of Bishop Bash ford. "That immense territory, con taining approximately 1,000,000 square miles, already containing 678 persons to the square mile, needs an additional 100 persons to keep the commercial products disposed of. Product .Needed by America. The country is rich in tropical prod ucts, the sort of products that America will most need, not being able to supply them herself, and the people of the tropics wanted our manufactures if for no other reason than because they are foreign." Tin, rubber, sugar, tropical fruits and tropical oils, he asserted, were there in indefinite quantiies. Bamboo, a wood that makes tne best sort oi paper, he declared, was in that coun try in inestimable quantities-, and that its intensive and rapid growth made It an irreducible commodity. Bishop Bashford has been attending the conference of the laymen s mission ary movement, and has been quartered at the Portland .Hotel. mmmmmm 3 HAZELWOOD Special Lunches Blake Dining; a Greater Pleasure Special Lunch No. 9500 Served 11:30 to 3:00 Bowl of Soup and Crackers '" Roast Beef, Potatoes Coffee, Tea or Miik Pie, Pudding or Ice Cream THE HAZELWOOD Confectionery and Restaurant Washington St, at Tenth the Sandy River, a distance of 17 miles from Portland, George M.

Mrs. Chambers and the two children are still at the clubhouse, but Mr. Cham bers will return in a few days to bring them to Portland. "There wasn't any use trying to drive my little car up that steep hill, because the snow was far too deep to permit travel," said Mr. Chambers in relating his experiences last night. 'Finally, however, I made up my mina that I was going to get back to port land, and I walked up the long hill leading from the clubhouse and trusted to luck. After footing my way for a considerable distance I ran across Troutdale man who had been trying to drive to the clubhouse, and he kindly picked me up and hauled me into Port land." TOMORROW.

Two extremely bright planets in the western sky these nights are Venus and Jupiter, and they are attracting no end of attention, not only from amateur and professional Btar-gazers, but from people generally who happen to be out of doors after dark. They are almost as bright in appearance as arc lights, and are only a short distance' apart One Portlander, Inquiring as to the appearance of the two particularly bright stars, voiced the belief that some sort of advertising scheme was being worked, and that the planets were lights suspended under a balloon or an airship.

Subsequent Publication Regarding Character of JjVeiehbor Hesults in Suit for Libel. T TP-TO-DATE detective methods were KJ employed by Mrs. E. McAfee to discover whether or not her room was occupied during her absence. Before go ing to Astoria for a visit she tied a string across the doorway of her room in such a manner that no one could enter without breaking the string. Upon her return the string was brok en. She accused Mrs. Genevia Lucas of occupying the room, and shortly after caused an article to be published in the Advocate saying that Mrs. Lucas "was a dangerous woman and should not be allowed in a church, lodge or decent society." This was revealed in her testimony before Circuit Judge Davis in a libel suit brought by Mrs. Lucas yesterday against Mrs. McAfee. Both women and the witnesses are colored and their tes timony kept the courtroom in constant laughter. Mrs. Cora Bunch, also colored, a con scientious church member, declared on the stand that she liked beer, but thought that it was wrong to drink it on Sunday, though not on other days. She further testified that Mrs. Lucas had been seen "doin' tho 'Texas Tom my. The alleged libel was headed "Be ware of a Wolf in Sheep's Clothing," and was signed by Mrs. McAfee.
