(SpeciaL) The San Francisco special of 11 cars, the first official excursion Into Coos Bay, arrived at eight, and 76 of the leading business men of San Francisco were entertained at the Mlllicoma Club Immediately. Tom T. Bennett Introduced J. A Mat son who weloomed the visitors and aid during his remarks that San Fran cisco had discovered and developed Coos Bay, and was therefore In good posi tion to continue in her good estima tion. F. H. Dohrmann, Jr., replied saying that the San Francisco people are friends of Coos Bay and their relations always have been of the closest. He believed they would continue so. C R. Peck, vice-president of the Marahfield Chamber of Commerce, told the visitors they would, have to make good to beat Portland in Coos Bay trade, since Portland now has rail con nection and is holding an advantage. Cooa Bay Bar's Depth Compared. Mr. Peck compared the recognized United States engineers' estimate of the depth of the Coos Bay bar as equal to that of San Diego. He said that San Francisco, if she would make Coos Bay her distributing point for Eugene and points south of there, could increase her business through here by thousands of dollars. He asked the San Fran clscoans not to send their freight past Coos Bay. J. A. Mataon. in a Jovial way, referred to the guests as coming in all "lit up." It was dark when they pulled In. The whistles In Marshfield and North Bend blew long and continued blasts as soon as the train was sighted. Robert Newton Lynch, vice-president of the San Francisco Chamber of Com merce, spoke at length and said the re lations of Coos Bay and the California city always would be congenial. Portland "Knocked Out." Following the speaking there were a number of stunts conducted by Coos Bay committees. One was a small pair of twins, the Anderson boys, who fought, one labeled Portland, the other San Francisco. The Portland boxer received a knockout punch- and was counted out. The same thing will prob ably be repeated with another termi nation when the Portland visitors ar rive. F. E. Battus. Southern Pacific passenger agent, made a jovial speech. "Booze Ship" Falls to Arrive. Coos Bay already is In Jubilee attire and nearly all the business houses are decorated, the floats are being hur ried and all the shows are on the ground. The city is full of hawkers and others, seeking concessions, and the local community is blooming out in badges, colored hats and pennants. It was rumored this afternoon that the "booze ship" from San Francisco had arrived off shore and a general commotion was created, while many arranged to make a sea voyage at once. Inquiry developed the vessel had not arrived. BRIDEGROOM IS IDENTIFIED Garry Wat kins, of Eugene, Will "Wed" 3Iis3 Coos Bay. EUGENE, Or.. Aug. 21. (SpeciaL) The identity of the bridegroom who will be one of the central figures at the wedding of Eugene Lane and Miss Coos Bay. at North Bend, August 24, in connection with the Coos Bay Railroad jubilee, was made today. Garry Watkins. proprietor of The Raceway, a swimming resort opposite the University of ,Oregon, and a mem ber of the Eugene Radiators, has been selected for the part Miss Gladys Roddy, of Marshfield, will take the part of the bride or Miss Coos Bay. With three rousing cheers the 79 mem bers of the San Francisco Trade Ex tension excursionists left Eugene for Coos Bay this afternoon, after passing last night and the greater part of today here. The visitors passed the forenoon con ferring with the merchants of this city, visiting the stores and in taking sightseeing trips in motor cars pro vided by the Eugene Chamber of Com merce. A breakfast of McKenzie River trout was served on the dining-cars. The train reached Marshfield about S o'clock tonight. The excursion on the return trip reaches Eugene about 7 o'clock Friday morning, and will go to Springfield for the hour between 8:30 and 9:30. From 10:30 until noon Friday the visitors will visit Cottage Grove. Accommodations Are Ample. Coos Bay hotels will be well able to accommodate all visitors to the big railroad celebrations there the last three days of the present week. . Reassurance to that effect was re ceived in Portland yesterday in the following dispatch from the Marshfield Record: "Accommodations for all have been arranged for and we will be able to take care of the crowds. Please give this as much publicity as possible, as counter reports unfortunately have gone out. J. A. Ormandy, chief clerk in the Southern Pacific passenger depart ment, who has Just returned from the Coos Bay territory, says that private homes, as well as the hotels, will be thrown open to care for the people.

Briefly summarized, these conditions are as follows: Belgium Forests entirely destroyed the nation so wrecked physically and financially that it will-have to be en tirely rebuilt, and this rebuilding will have to be financed by the major powers. Enormoms Demand Shown. France Northern France must he rebuilt, enormous distances of railroad lines laid, with a consequent demand. beyond estimate of quantity, for rail' road ties, sleepers and lumber to re build entirely the farm buildings, vil lages and cities of Northern France. This need will be definite, regardless of the outcome of the present war. England Its forests, as well as those of Scotland, denuded, the supply of lumber already exhausted, and im ported lumber needed for all future bulMing, until new forests grow to take the place of the timber cut to use for war purposes. Italy The supply of timber Is gone, used in war operations, either for Italy herself or -her allies, and great quantities In immediate demand. Spain The forests cut and the lum ber sold to warring nations. German v No estimate mads of con d it! cms. but the need only less than that of the allied powers in proportion to the extent to which the German government has foreseen the future and prepared to meet the emergency by the holding of great tracts as publio for est. Russia mvs great supplies of stand ing timber, Baltic pine chiefly, but not. during the war at least, available to the other allies, and even after peace Is declared not suited to the demand owing to its lower quality. To secure this business, it was de clared to be necessary only for the American lumbermen to go aXur the ZAHL. trade systematically, with an advance knowledge of the needs of the vari ous nations. The fly In the ointment was placed on exhibition by Thorpe Babcock, ' of the West Coast Lumber Manufacturers' Association, when he said: "I just want to call your attention to the fact that, owing to the ocean Shipping conditions, the West Coast manufacturers who have already at hand the exporting capacity are unable to fill orders for the lack of vessels in which to convey the sold lumber to the overseas purchaser. Before this inves tigation can become profitable this con dition must be remedied by the provid ing of sips." SEWS IS BIG FOR XORTHTWEST Lumbermen in Earnest In Develop ing of Markets. Ansel R. Clark, head of the Portland office of the Bureau of Trade and Com merce of the United States, attended the conference of lumber interests and Federal officials in Chicago yester day. Mr. Pratt telegraphed last night to Manager Hardy, of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, that the confer ence was filled with enthusiasm for the project. "This move will prove to be one of signal importance to the Northwest in particular." said Mr. Hardy last night. "The lumbermen will undoubtedly take it up and it will mean much toward developing our lumber market in the next few years. It. must not be lost sight of, .at the same time, that the success of the plan depends largely also on the ability of the United States to develop tonnage sufficient to handle and control its market after it has created it." MAYOR'S RETURN SECRET Mr. Albee Home for Day, Then Goes to "Somewhere In Oregon." With Mayor Albee a vacation is a vacation. Proceeding on this theory. Mr. Albee slipped Into Portland Sun day night from a 10-day trip to Cra ter Lake and after resting until last night slipped away again to finish his vacation, "somewhere in Oregon." Not even his private secretary. Will H. Warren, knew he was in town until he was nearly ready to leave. There fore he escaped the usual grist of urgent calls and visits he knew would follow any announcement of his having arrived home. The Mayor expects to be back to work in a few days. In the meantime his whereabouts is secret, for the same reason as was his short stay in Port land between vacation trips. MRS. CAPLES HOME AGAIN Woman Thought Lost Returns After Visit With Relatives. FOREST GROVE, Or., Aug. 21. fSpe claL) Mrs. Con Caples. whose sudden disappearance was noted in a dispatch from this city yesterday, and for whom the Sheriff organized a posse and searched the city and surrounding country, returned home Sunday night in gooa health.

Y2 Morrison Street at Broadway 4- WASHINGTON. Aug. 21 The Na tional Guard will be retained on the Mexican border until It can be with drawn without again endangering American lives and property. Secretary Baker so declared the Administration's policy today in answering a score of letters from many parts of the country complaining that the state troops were being held in service after the emer gency for which they were called out apparently had passed. In general the complainants, whose names were withheld, alleged that bor der service was entailing loss finan cially on militiamen and hardship on their families. The Secretary replied to all those seeming to merit attention. By its presence on the border, he wrote to one, the Guard is "winning bloodless victories dally." He declared that American residents along the interna tional line were enjoying a peace and security they could not know without the military forces to protect them. Valuable Servle la Rendered. The Department appreciates, Mr. Ba ker said in another letter, the fact that a call for military service on militia organizations must "inevitably present cases of hardships." He added: "The emergency, however, which re quired this call for the militia was one of grave character, affecting the safety and lives of citizens of the United States, men. women and children. The presence of the militia on the Mexican border has restored order and given a higher degree ot safety and security to the lives of our people in that trou bled country than they have had for a long time. The militia is. therefore. performing valuable service; and the fact that this service is being per formed without active military opera ons, entailing loss of life to our sol diers, is a cause of congratulation and happiness." Men Fitted tor War Duty. Referring to the elaborate and ex tensive training the militiamen are re ceiving under supervision of regular Army officers, the Secretary expressed Then consider the length of time that the Dodge Brothers' car has been on the that during this comparatively short time not a single Dodge Brothers dealer has sufficient cars to meet the demand. $2 White Swan Fountain Syringe, fits any faucet.

In another letter he called attention to steps taken to relieve guardsmen where there Is unusual hardship re sulting from their being called into the service. "I am filled with admiration for the spirit with which the militia has met this call." the Secretary said, "and with which they are performing an impor tant and necessary service to their country." Guard Meant for Such Emersencr. To another correspondent the Secre tary explained that the National Guard was maintained for just such expedi ences as that which now exists on the border and that It had cost the Gov ernment many millions to prepare and keep it ready for such emergencies. He pointed out that National Guardsmen were fully aware of the duties they undertook when they enlisted.
