HOST COMING NEXT WEEK
FOOTING ON SLOPE LOST
Mercantile leaders of 14 States,
British Columbia and Alaska,
Have Aocepted Inrltatlons.
Pioneer city In the entire west in
putting on an annual Buyers' week.
Portland has beW imitated widely
by other cities, but it can be said
with truth that none has equaled
the detail with which the event has
been worked out here and the stan
dard of Portland's week has not been
reached elsewhere.
The ninth annual Buyers week
opens next Monday and lasts all week,
with something: doing for visitors
every minute of the time. It will be
bigger and better than ever before
and by that same token a much wider
territory will be represented by mer
cantile leaders.
Invitations have been sent out to
14 western states. British Columbia
and Alaska. And responses have come
back from all and even from such a
far state as North Carolina there has
come enthusiastic acceptance, indicat
ing that the gospel of Portland's busi
ness hospitality has found enthusias
tic welcome far from home.
City's Fame Is Crowing.
The North Carolina merchant is
coming to buy goods distinctively
the product ofregon, found nowhere
else in such quality as here. These
rroducts are of greater variety than
borne folks realize. Furniture people
of the south, for example, look to
Portland for a very large part of
their stocks and Portland is recog
nized as the commercial center of
the Pacific northwest in many lines,
indeed. In numerous lines there is
greater variety produced here than in
many larger cities of the United
States.
Portland has become such a widely
recognized market that merchants no
longer find it necessary to send to
Isew York' or other eastern centers
for goods to stock their shelves'. After
visiting Portland during buyers' week
retailers from a distance learn for
themselves Just what is carried in
stock and when they send repeat
orders they know exactly what to
tell Jobbers and manufacturers to
send them. Then when customers
ask for certain things they are told
they will be supplied within a very
few days, as orders will be placed
at once with Portland firms.
Fare Refund Inducement.
Railroad fares will be returned by
Portland firms to visiting merchants
who buy goods of a certain value
during tne week. Probably few mer
chants will fail .to earn their trans
portion charges.
Many, however, will come by auto
mobile, a greater number than on any
preceding occasion of the kind. Mon
tana, Utah, California, Idaho in fact,
every western state will undoubtedly
flaunt its automobile license tags on
Portland streets next week.
The wisdom of Portland's whole
sale and manufacturing community
in making this big trade opportunity
an annual affair has been more than
justified by results and as it gathers
momentum with each recurring year
it is believed it will continue to be
Portland's outstanding trade event.
2 50 POSTCARDS HANDED OUT
Acceptances Distributed Among
Merchants of Idaho.
E. J. Brown, sales manager for one
of Portland's largest wholesale
houses, made a trip through Idaho re
cently and he took with him 250 post
cards that were in effect acceptances
of Portland's widespread invitation to
merchants to come' here for buyers'
week.
Mr. Brown was industrious in the
distribution of the cards and circu
lated them widely among his trade,
But he received a curious series of re
plies to his urging to mail them in
to headquarters.
"They know we're coming, what's
the use to write to them and say so?'
replied more than one merchant.
It has been a current report of trav
eling men for a long time that when
they go into the territory' they cover
and ask the merchants when they are
coming to Portland, the reply is in
variably made:
"Next buyers' week."
Last year the total attendance dur
ing buyers' week was 1500. This
year, despite less active business con
ditions, all estimates raise this quota
considerably.
WATER SOURCE TAPPED
Work (Begun to Relieve Myrtle
Point and Coquille Shortage.
MARSHFIELD, Or., July 27. (Spe
clal.) Work has been started to re
lieve the water shortage at Coquille
and Myrtle Point. Springs supplying
the city reservoir at Myrtle Point
have about dried up and preparations
have been under way for several days
to start pumping on the north fork of
the Coquille river. This water is
sluggish and not considered good for
consumption without boiling.
A temporary dam has been finished
on Rink creek and the pipe line is
now bringing all available water to
Coquille. The permanent concrete
dam, which is to be put in this sum
mer, will store about 250.000 gallons.
Reports from the state health depart
ment declare that this water is clean
and pure.

REAL GET-TOGETHER SOUGHT
IX FIRST BUYERS' WEEK.
Event Xott Many-sided Conven
tion, Representing All Lines
of Merchandising.
Strangely enough, 'buyers' week.
the annually recurring market event
when Portland sets forth its show
ing of desirable merchandise in all
lines for visiting merchants to choose
their stocks, was not originated as
an occasion for selling goods at all.
The big idea that was in the mind
of Nathan Strauss, who originated
the event and who has been general
chairman for the eight years that the
week has been observed, was to
bring the outside merchant to the
city, that the manufacturer, jobber
and wholesaler might become better
acquainted with the retailer from a
distance and to learn in this first
hand way just what was best adapted
to the needs of different parts of the
country served from this mart.
It was quite all right, or course.
for the merchants in the cities that
depend upon Portland for their stocks ,
of goods to give their orders to tne
salesmen when they called, but it
was felt the first-hand contact with
the heads of the firm was desirable.
Then the retailer could give his own
ideas as to what was required na
when things purchased did not meet
with the exact wishes of the trade,
the difficulties could be straightened
cut and better relations established.
Of course, such a gathering of re
tailers from outside points, covering
a vast section of the west, resulted
in buying becoming a major activity
of the week. The event became a
many-sided convention, with practi
cally all lines of merchandising rep
resented, and it has resulted In plac
ing Portland on an eminence a?s the
buying center of the west.
It also has served a double pur
pose, because the city has become so
strongly intrenched as the market of
the hinterland that whenever there
is marketing of the raw products of
the northwest, Portland coms first
to mind as the logical place to bring
these things for sale. This makes"
Portland the outlet to a greater ex
tent than ever before of the varied
products of the vast territory which
regards Portland as its chief buying
and selling center.
whom he met in Los Angeles when he
was an evangelist. She was said to
have been married at one time to ex
United States Senator Layton of Ohio.
The charge against Macdonald was
merely technical, as he gave a $300
check made payable to him by his di
vorced wile.
'Macdonald's experiences furnished
thrills and chuckles for. a seven-reel
tickler. Deputy sheriffs arrested him
the day the amateur performance was
to open and he was held in jail until
Sheriff Morris relented and permitted
him to be a stage hero. At that, Mac
donald proved himself a clever actor
when he put- on his stage vtogs and
walked before the footlights.
Macdonald carried part of his own
audience, for in one wing stood-Dep-
uty Sheriff Matteau. On the opposite
side of the stage Deputy Sheriff
Hackett guarded the exit. Then Mrs.
Macdonald arrived. She told her
story of how she met Macdonald four
years ago in Los Angeles when he
was in straitened circumstances.
In the divorce suit he filed in Se
attle last April Macdonald alleged
that his wife enticed and lured him
into marriage, although he was total
ly ignorant of the snares of the world
and the charm and wickedness of the
more tutored and trained.. He asked
for alimony and a share in the home
at Alderwood Manor, north of Seattle,
which Mrs. Macdonald bought after
their marriage.
Mrs. Macdonald replied that her
boyish husband was doing her a
grievous wrong. She said she had put
up the cash for him; that he liked the
excitement of other women's caresses,
and that she wa' not 60 years of age
at all but only 52. She declared that
she was granted a divorce only a few
days ago from him in Everett.
As soon as the sheriff came directly
after Horace and the latter had con
vinced himself that the officer wore a
real star, he sent an SOS call over the
long distance telephone to Ais ex
wife. Then'he went to jail. She ar
rived just in time to see him making
violent love to pretty Helen Rice Pet
erson, leading woman in the play.

ROSEBURG, Or., July 27. (Special.)
Convinced that Dr. Brumfield dou
bled back on histracks and is still in
the territory between Bend and
Klamath Falls, the local officers to
day arranged to make a thorough
search of that district.
Deputy Sheriff Hopkins, known as
"the shooting deputy," probably will
leave either tonight or tomorrow
morning to conduct a hunt in the ter
ritory lying between Bend and
Klamath Falls with the hope of find
ing some trace of the missing dentist.
Sheriff Sam Starmer is now in Cali
fornia and is coming north, while of
ficers to the north and east report all
roads guarded so that it will be a dif
ficult matter for the fugitive to es
cape if the officers are correct in the
supposition that Brumfield is hiding
in eastern Oregon.
Further information received today
caused the officers to believe that
after being seen near the boundary of
Crater Lake park, Brumfield returned
toward Bend and then went into a
convenient hiding place possibly the
same place where he remained in cov
er for a week after he was reported
seen at Redmond, Bend and La Pine.
A Bend tourist passing through
Roseburg today said he had met the
.man and car seen by the Shoemakers
and that the car was being- driven
north tcfward Bend and that it was
about 20 miles north of where seen
before. This information was given
after it was learned that the tourist
party had been only a short distance
behind the Roseburg party. When
furnished a description of the man
and the oar the meeting was recalled.
A message wsas received from Al-
turas to the effect that the man seen
mere on ssunoay afternoon was not
Brumfield. As no man or car an
swering tne description was seen at
any point out from Alturas, it is be
lieved that the dentist is still in east
ern Oregon, and that he probably will
be found in hiding there. If matters
can be satisfactorily arranged In the
sheriffs office here. Deputy Hopkins
win taice up tne chase in eastern Ore
gon, working In co-operation with the
officers there. A. systematic search
will be made of all the places where a
fugitive would be likely to hide and
all clews developed in that section of
the state will be run down.

Woman Suffering From Shock
Recounts Husband's Efforts to

; BANFF, Alta.. via Vancouver, B. C,
July 27. (Specials -i- A tale of
heroism and tragedy was unfolded
here last night when word from
searching Parties told of the finding
of the body of Dr. W. E. Stone, presi
dent of Purdue university, Lafayette,
Ind. jammed t)eneath the ice and
snow' of a deep crevice in Mount
Eanon, south of Banff. Mrs. Stone,
who, with her husband, had been
missing since July 17 from their
camp at the base of Mount Assini
boine, south of Banff, was found ly
ing severely injured at the foot of a
17-foot crevice by the same search
ing party and has since been rushed
to an emergency hospital at Camp
Assiniboine. A corps of doctors and
nursea have been dispatched . f r o m
here-to attend her.
Woman Falls Into Crevice.
The entire summer colony had been
assisting in combing the countryside
in an effort to locate the missing
couple.
Losing her footing on the precipi
tous, slope of Mount Eanon, Mrs.
Stone is said to have fallen into the
crevice unknown to her husband.
Summoned by her screams for as
sistance. Dr.. Stone, according to Mrs.
Stone's story, attempted to pull her
to the surface by means of a rope.
Failing in the effort, he lowered him
self to her side and then attempted
to climb back with her in. his arms.
It was in this attempt that Dr. Stone
lost his footing and his grasp upon
the rope and fell into even a deeper
crevice.
So great was the fall that It is
thought death came instantly. Mrs.
Stone was hurled back into the first
crevice. There she lay until the
searching party found her Sunday.
HwbRDd'a Heroism Recalled. .
Mrs. Stone was unable to describe
the details of the tragedy. The mag
nificent heroism of her husband's ac
tion is the only topic which she will
discuss. Despite the severity of her
injuries and the shock from her hus
band's death and the exposure, physi
cians said chances for her recovery
were good.
The body of Dr. Stone was jammed
between the narrow sides of the icy
crevice and extrication was extreme
ly difficult. The efforts of a num
ber of men and a day's labor were re
quired to bring the body to the sur
face. Members of the Alpine club camp
made preparations to give Mrs. Stone
every needed medical attention. Sur
geons will be summoned from New
York if it is decided her condition
warrants specialists.

THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU.
Washington. D. C, July 27. As a
result of an understanding reached
at the conference between the presi
dent and a group of senators at the
White House last night. Senator Mc
Nary will not press his $250,000,000
reclamation bill for passage at this
session of congress. -
The president said that he would
prefer to have the remainder of the
session devoted to the measures oa
the original administration pro
gramme, together with such legisla
tion as is now pending to aid the
agricultural industry. Senator Mc
Nary assured Mr. Harding that he had
no desire to put his bill In the way
of the more urgent legislation, such
as tariff and tax revision, the rail
road securities bill and the farmers'
relief programme.
The Oregon senator told the presi
dent that he regarded it as useless
to try to pass the reclamation bill in
this session and that he was glad
to put it over until December, at
which time Mr. Harding has promised
an indorsement either in his regular
message or in a special message.
One measure. Senator McNary in
formed the president, he would have
to insist upon adding to the pro
gramme for the present session. That
was the China trade act in which the
Pacific coast is so keenly interested
and which already has passed the
house.
The president requested that the
bill providing free tolls for American
shipping through the Panama canal
also be held up. He said this ques
tion, he believed, could best be solved
by diplomatic negotiations.
