REVIVAL DATE IN DOUBT -JBILLT SI -N DAY READY TO COME TO w CITY IN "SEPTEMBER." 'Confusion Arises as to Whether Evan 1 gellst'a Open Date la September, I 1918, or September, Mia. Next September may be the date of the Billy Sunday revival meetings in Portland, arrangements for which have boon under way for some months. This is signified in a letter from the famous evangelist, written from Duluth. Minn. There is some doubt as to whether the suggestion that he makes in a letter to the local committee alludes to Septem r next or to the Fall of 1919. While waiting for a telegram from the crusa der who is swatting the devil and the Kaiser with verbal bombs at Duluth, the committee has called a meeting for .Friday noon at the Chamber of Com mere, at which it is expected the mat ter will be definitely decided, at least so far as answering the question as to whether Portland will get ready for the meeting. Billy Sunday's letter was written June 19, and was addressed to William MeMurray. It reached Mr. McMurray on the day he was leaving to attend traffic meeting in Chicago, and he turned it over to E. L. Thompson. Complying with the request for an immediate answer by wire Mr. Sunday waa advised that most of the members of the committee were absent that day and a definite answer could not be given. As Mr. Thompson read the let ter, he thought it referred to Septem ber, 1919. Tuesday Mr. Thompson wired again to ask whether it was the coming September to which reference had been made, ana communicated with Rev. w, W. Youngson, who had returned from Kansas City. Dr. Youngson promptly called a meeting of the committee for Friday noon. Phone your want ads to Tha Orego jfiian.

BANDITS SLAY AMERICAN BROTHER OF MRS. LYNN AMBROSE VICTIM OF MEXICAN OUTLAWS. Slater Advice of Madison Cooper's Death Near Tamplco, Mexico, on Jon 2S. Telegraphic information received In Portland yesterday indicates that Mad ison Cooper, son of Mrs. M. Cooper and brother of Mrs. Lynn Ambrose, 140B Missouri avenue, Portland, and of Mrs. E. R. Taylor, formerly of Rose City Park, has been killed-by bandits near Tampico. Mexico. The advices came from the Mexican Gulf Oil Company, of Houston, Tex., and were addressed to Mrs. Taylor, whose removal to St. Louis complicated delivery until her sister, Mrs. Ambrose, was found. 7 Mrs. Ambrose was astonished last night to learn that hes brother was In Mexico. Her last advices were that he was en route to America from London, England, and, inasmuch as the initials of the slain man were given as "R. M-," she was loath to believe it was her. brother who had met death. However, the fact that his effects di rected Information to Mrs. Taylor in dicated that he was the victim. Mr. Cooper was in Portland about ten years ago when Mrs. Taylor lived n Rose City Park. Since that time he had been in Buenos Ayres in the coffee business. It is thougnt quite likely that his interests could have drawn him to Mexico. The dispatches said that .Mr. Cooper was killed on June 29. . DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND. July 3.

About 20 men were at work on the fire and the ma jority of them will be sent at once to help fight the fire at Rabbit Ears, on this side of the Umpqua divide, which has burned over from 400 to 500 acres of timber In tne past three days, but ia now burning in brush land.

Four dan gerous fires, fanned by high winds, are sweeping thousands of acres of timber lands in the Selway and Clearwater forests in Northern Idaho, according to reports today to, district No. 1, of the United States Forest Service. The most mgerous fires are on Rocky Ridge, Gedney Creek, Red Springs and .Bear Creek. The Rocky Kidse fire has covered 2000 acres and 70 men were ordered from Spokane to fight the fire. The extent of the fire at Red Springs is un known, but the Uerney Creek fire b destroyed 600 acres of timber and the Bear Creek fire 900 acres. Tha Forest Service officials say tha situation is critical because of the high winds and dry woods. Fires in other parts of the district are under control. RAINIER FIRE IS CONTROLLED Regrowth o?r30,000-Acre Clspus Burn Is Entirely Consumed. The fire which has been raging on the old Cispua burn in the Rainier Na tional Forest haa at last been con trolled, and no further damage will be done by it, according to the report of M. L. Merrltt, forest examiner of the Portland district forester's office, who returned to the city today, accompa nied by C. H. Flory. assistant district forester. Seventy-five men are fight ing the flames. The fire burned fiercely for a few days; then it seemed to be under con trol, when suddenly a high wind came up and in a single day the flames lapped the dead timber and regrowth from 30,000 acres of land. Forest Ranger John Kirkpatrlck was caught In the fire, entirely surrounded by the flames, and spent a day in the creek in order to save his life. The fire destroyed no merchantable timber, but it took off a good stand of regrowth timber which would event ually have covered the 40.000 acres with valuable forest. This timber, had been growing since, the first time the district was burned out by a fire and acquired the name of Clspus Burn. This waa in 1902, and the fires caused the famous dark day of September, when the whole Northwest was visited with night In the middle of the day caused by the smoke of the forest fire. The fire destroyed a schoolhouse, part of the Tower Rock ranger station and a deserted homesteader's house. The Fofest Department will keep a force of firefighters on the ground un til a heavy rain removes all possibility of the fire going into the green tim ber.

FINANCIAL MESS IMPENDS Governor Is Seriously Considering Advisability of Havins Legis lature Place Bill Before People. SALEM, Or.. July 3. (Special.) Possibility of an extraordinary session of the Oregon Legislature again looms large on the political horixort as a re sult of failure to secure enoueh sig natures to piace tne emergency war runa mill tax measure on the Novem ber ballot. Governor Wlthvcomba conceded today that the only loophole leit tor tne measure waa through a special session. Lnder the constitution the Legisla ture may refer measures to the people and It would be possible for the emer gency war fund measure to be so re ferred. The Governor ia now giving serious consideration to what Is ap parently the sole chance of saving the iis legislature from what now threatens to be a bad financial mlxup, beaause of the t per cent limitation amendment. Legislature Coald Act. "I am fully alive to the fact that fail ure to place the emergency war tax bill on the November ballot will place the next Legislature In a grave position In the light of the 6 per cent limitation amendment," said the Governor. "As far aa I can see. the only chance to get the measure before the people and raise funds necessary for emergency pur poses would be by a special sescion of the Legislature, which could meet, refer the bill to the people and adjourn. I am not prepared to say I will call a Bpecial session for that purpose, but I am giving the matter serious thought. I waa greatly surprised to learn that not enough signatures were aecured for the bill in question. I supposed it would go on the ballot without diffi culty, and as a result I have not had time to give much thought to the idea of calling a apecial session for the pur pose of placing the measure before the people. Seemingly that Is the only way out of what appears to be a bad situa tion." State Will Lack Fsads. Passage of that measure by the peo ple would have given about 3928,00 a year or more during tha period of the war for military and other purposes in connection with war work within the state. By its passage it would have eliminated from legislative approprl tlons expenditures for the National Guard and Naval Militia. Military Police. Oregon Social Hygiene Society and a State Council of Defense and numerous other extraordinary emer gencies which have arisen in the wake of the war. Failure of the bill means that these extraordinary expenses will be thrown back on the Legislature. With numer ous state institutions and activities probably demanding -deficiency appro priations before the biennium is up with over 3300,000 in deficiency appro priations already contracted for by the Emergency Board, and with numerous extraordinary expenses to be met which were never before met by an Oregon Legislature, a serious situation will be confronted, particularly in the light of the restrictions imposed by the 6 per cent limitation amendment. The latitude given by the per cent amendment represents something over 3300,000 for the next two years over the last two years. Increases in fees may. all told, bring the grand total up to 1500,000. Apparently, however, the Kmergency Hoard may have created a deficiency equal to that entire amount by the time the Legislature convenes. and as a result the Legislature will have the same amount to expend that it had to expend two years ago. The fact that appropriations of the last ses sion have been falling short right and left gives further indication that the 1919 Legislature will have a merry time of it to make both ends meet unless the war emergency fund tax bill Is sub mitted to the people in November and approved. Only Twi Bills inrrive. But two initiative measures succeed ed in getting by the restriction of the set passed by the last Legislature, which requires county clerks to check the names of signatures on petitions with the names on the voting regis tration lists. Time for filing endel today with measures submitted by C. S. Jackson and R- A. Hagood, providing for repeal of laws requring publication of de linquent tax lists and fixing the cost for publication of legal notices, being the only complete petitions filed. This' will make six measures en the ballot in November, which, in addition to the two foregoing, are as follows: Bill providing for tire establishment of normal schools in Kastern and Southern Oregon, referred by the Leg islature. Bill providing for the establishment of a school for state wards, referred by the Legislature. Rogue River fish bill, referred by the people. Bill prohibiting fishing south of Os wego in Willamette River, referred by the people. The emergency war tax bill: a bill to abolish the Public Service Commis sion; a measure providing that cities and towna might fix rates for public utilities: a bill prohibiting flshwheel, trap and seine fishing in the rivers of the state, and a bill to authorise aol. dlera to vote all failed because of lack of signatures.

"Arrangements are being made at the abpve mentioned station to care for the eggs to brlrvsr them to the eyed state, and we are also arranging to hatch and care for about 4.000.000 at the McKenxle hatchery, as well as at the Klaskanine, where we will no doubt handle about 8.000,000. The ca pacity at Bonneville will also accom modate 6.000,000 more than last year, altogether totaling about 11.000,000 more than we handled at tha stations in district No. 1 in 117.
