14 THE StJNDAY OREGOSIAS, PORTLAND, JANUARY 29, 1906. TAKES HIGH RANK O.R.&N.C0. Advertises Exposition. ATTRACTS MANY SETTLERS Attention of Thousands Drawn to Pacific Northwest. LETTERS FROM MANY STATES Inquiries Come From Every Section of the United States, and Great Quantities Are Sent Out n Response. The great -work that is being done Xor the Iewis and Clark Exposition, Oregon and the great Northwest, through the advertising of the rail roads. Is beginning to be realized. Among the railroads doing this work the O. R. & X. Co. is taking a high rank, as becomes the line -which runs from boundary to boundary of the state. Though the advertising of this railroad In connection with the Expo sition has but commenced, the effect has been far-reaching and much good is .being done. Every advertisement of the railroad carried an announcement of the Lewis and Clark Centennial. Letters in re sponse to these advertisements are be ing received at the company's head quarters by the hundred, and in re sponse literature is being mailed, litera ture which sets forth not only the scope and idea of the Exposition, but also the resources of Oregon and the Northwest and the opportunities awaiting the set tler in this section of the country. "The Lewis and Clark Centennial Ex position will work wonders In the way of advertising Oregon and the Pacific Northwest," declared Mr. Rinaldo M. Hall, advertising agent of the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company, yes terday afternoon. "Just glance on this pile of letters and Inquiries from people who want to know about Oregon and Washington." Letters From Many States. Piled high on Mr. Hall's desk were letters from one-half of tire states in the Union, the majority of the letters making mention of the fact that the writers intend visiting Portland this year, take in the Exposition and look the country over. The mail that reaches Mr. Hall's desk dally Is some thing enormous, and the amount of lit erature sent out by the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company In answer to these inquiries is also enormous. Every In quirer, as a rule, asks for the Oregon, Washington and Idaho booklet, which describes to a great extent the re sources of these states. In the mail Saturday inquiries were received from California. Iowa, Penn sylvania, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, North Dakota, Arkansas, New York, Ontario, Colorado, Ohio, Illinois,, South Dakota, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Indiana. Michigan, Mary land, Montana and west Virginia. Many Inquiries From California. One noticeable thing in reference to the inquiries received is the fact that many of the farmers in the old irri gated sections of California are eager to learn of the opportunities In Crook County, where thousands of acres of land are being brought under cultiva tion by irrigation. During the past year the inquiries from California have increased nearly 90 per cent. The letters also appear to come from the better class of people. One man from Indiana writes to know the price of lands for various purposes, stating that he intends to come to Oregon this Summer to .attend the Exposition, and desires to locate here if he can secure a quarter-section of good land at a reasonable figure. A great many let ters are received from the State of New York, one person from that state de siring to know what counties furnished the greatest resources to the stock raiser. Pennsylvania is another state which sends a great number of in quiries, many coming from men work ing in the coal mines and in the great mills of that state, who desire to come West and take up land. There are numbers of letters asking about rates to Portland next Summer. "I did not go to the St. Louis Expo sition," writes a man from Ohio, "but I Intend to visit the Lewis and Clark Pair, because I can see the country at the same time. I shall settle in Ore gon if I can possibly make arrange ments, for I am convinced that no state In the country offers such inducements to settlers." Thousands Will Come to Stay. Many of tho letters containing clip pings from the New Year's Oregonlan state that the writers are Interested in Oregon and desire further information. "The number of people to visit Ore gon next year has been underesti mated," said Mr. Hall. "Our hotels and rooming-houses and restaurants will be crowded. And hundreds, perhaps it would be safe to say thousands, of those who come will come to stay and do their share in upbuilding the state." GREAT NORTHERN AIDS FAIR. F. I. Whitney Tells of the Advertising Methods Used by Railroad. F I. Whitney, of St. Paul, general pas senger and ticket agent of the Great Northern, who has been -visiting with the traffic men here for the past few days, is a. great enthusiast on the subject of the Lewis and Clark Fair, and yesterday cpoke of the work being done by his line to advertise the Exposition .through the Bast. "The encouragement with which the Lewis and Clark Exposition is meeting in the East," ho said, "warrants the belief that it will be a success. The Northern transcontinental railways, each in its own way and by methods which appeal to each ether as the best to obtain results, are netting forth Its attractions and the op portunities offered by means of the low rates to sec what Is the actual result of the Lewis and Clark expedition. The Great Northern has been engaged for years in the work of exploitation, paying t.peolal attention to the Pacific Coast States. Its work has been fruitful of re mits, which Is best attested by the in crease in population, tho advance in val ues and more especially in farm lands. "Every new family added to the state Increases its material wealth by at least S500. The Great Northern's method of work is first to advertise in the prominent daliy and weekly papers, making it a point to advertise In county papers. As a rule every man takes his county paper, and more than that, he reads it. Then we have lecturers In the field with stereo p ticon views, which gives the man in the East a realistic picture of the Jlfe In the West, or in other words we endeavor to place ic West with all its wonderful resources and opportunities before the Eastern man and show him as it can be done in no other way. "The conditions of life as they actually exist here, and the Lewis and Clark Ex position as presented by these views awakens intense Interest In your city, and it Is worth all that It costs to have this advertising. The presentation of facts verified by the stereopticon to the Eastern man regarding your resources is the most convincing way of telling him that better things await him If he will only take ad vantage and go where they exist, and to this wc add that, as advertised, the Expo sition will open 'complete In even detail, which alone will make it notable." Indoor Baseball at the Armory Company H, Battery A and Com pany II Are Tied for First Place. pr LMOST every Saturday night finds r a large crowd of indoor baseball fans at the Armory, where the seven military organizations located In Portland each have a team in the field playing for the annual championship. For the past eight years indoor baseball has been played by the military companies at the Armory, and year by year the interest 'in this game has been growing until now crowds gather regularly to watch the big ball shoot across the small diamond. At many of the games excitement be comes Intense, and the tooting of horns, ringing of bells and yelling of the Indoor fans often deafens the players so that the umpire's decision cannot be heard. The game of indoor baseball is similar In most respects to the National ball game, one of the exceptions being that the diamond is much smaller. There are two shortstops, one on each side of the pitcher, who stands almost against the batter, and only two fielders are used. The Armory is the best building In the city for the game, owing to the exten sive floor space it affords, and the high ness of Its celling, allowing plenty of room for a fly ball to end Its course. On many occasions the players "dis pute" the two umpires on decisions which both sides claim they deserve, and many times trouble is prevented by the um pires making a Joint decision of a play, which both sides accept cheerfully. So far, six games have been played out of. 21 on the schedule. The tournament could be brought to an end much quicker If games could be played on other nights besides Saturdays, but on account of drilling this cannot be done. When battalion drills commence, in about two weeks, there will be a game every other Tuesday evening, and the last game w. oe played on April 8. It now looks as If the championship would be played oif between Battery A and Companies B and H, as in last sea son's finish. Last year Company H won the silver cup, and its members declare they will have the pennant waving in their company quarters after the last game this year. But this remains to be seen, for the battery boys are out to win, and Company F players, although they have lost one 'game, assert that they are not out of the race. Company B has won the only game on its list that has been played. Last year B was in the race to the end, but In the finals was beaten by both the Battery and II. After the Armory League has com pleted its series the three teams having the highest percentage will enter the City League, which will probably be entered by the Zeniths, from the Marshall-Wells Hardware Company; Y. M. C. A.. Mult nomah Club and Rlnglers. The Zeniths and Rlnglers are new teams. In the game, and both are considered strong compe titors by the military companies. Arrangements will be made in the near future to perfect the organization of the City League. A board of directors will be composed of one member from each team entering the league, and a president will be elected who has no active con nection with any team. The remainder of the Armory League schedule Is as follows: Saturday, Febru ary 4, B and K; Wednesday, February S.

Sea Air, at 7 to 1, and Morito were friendless. They were not long at the post, and Loretta M. took the track, winning all the way by a length and a half. Del Carina, who could not raise a gallop In her recent races, performed an acrobatic feat by pressing the winner, getting second place. Lady Goodrich had to be content with third money from Sea Air.

TOOK MONEY TO OTHER BANKS How Hunt Wrecked His Pan-American Bank In Chicago. CHICAGO, Jan. 2S. Receiver Edwin C. Day has made the discovery that within the last four months $25,000 has been with drawn from the Pan-American Bank for the private bank of President William H. Hunt, in Wall street. New York, and that other withdrawals of 59S00 and $3000 were credited to Hunt and a branch in stitution in the City of Mexico. Colonel Henry L. Turner, who severed connection with the Pan-American Bank About a month ago, is said to have been prompted by disapproval of the methods of sending deposits to other banks. Efforts to find W. S. Rector, the cash ier, have thus far proved vain. Criminal prosecution of the officials of the defunct Pan-American Bank was in stituted by Attorney V. A. G. Murrell. of this city, ono of the depositors. Mr. Murrell deposited money in the bank on the day before it failed. OXFORD WINS HANDICAP. Bookmakers at Ascot Are Hit Hard on Every Race. LOS ANGELES.

They could give me only temporary relief, and I think they tried about all the remedies known to medical science, dosing me "with strong medicine until my stomach got into such a condition that I could digest nothing, and neither myself nor my friends had any hope of my recovery. I was persuaded to try S. S. S., and before finishing the first bottle I found that I had the right remedy. I continued to take it until it cured me perfectly. This was about nine years ago, and I have been in splendid health erer since. Murfreesboro, Tenn. J. D. Manson. Fiery liniments, drawing plasters and penetrating oils never cured a case of Rheumatism; because it is not a local or skin disease, but a disease of the blood caused by a sour, acid condition of that vital fluid. The kidneys and fcowels get weak, the liver torpid, and the poisonous accumulations that should pass off through the usual channels of nature are absorbed by the blood and distributed into the muscles, joints and nerves through the circu lation, producing inflammation and swelling of these parts, excitement of the nerves and other painful and disa greeable symptoms of the disease. Rheumatism sufferers look with dread upon the winter season with its damp, cold, changing weather, for the first slight exposure is liable to bring on an attack, and the sharp, cutting pains and feverish, swollen joints and muscles make life miserable with almost unbearable torture. Local applications will 099 ish ov other harmful minerals, but is purely vegetable and is recognized everywhere as the'surest and safest blood purifier.

HIS BANK WAS GUTTED r UNT, OF THE PAN-AMERICAN, IS UNDER ARREST. Receiver Finds He Trarsf erred Funds to His Own Bank and Sold Much Stock Liabilities Are Heavy. NEW YORK, Jan. 28. W. H. Hunt, who was connected with the Pan-American Bank, 'of Chicago, which closed its doors several days ago, has been ar rested here at the request of the Chi cago police, who notified the New York authorities that they had a warrant for Hunt on the charge of embezzling $36,000. He was released on $5000 ball. HE HAD ACCOMPLICES. Man and Woman Suspected of Aiding Oft-Married Hoch. CHICAGO, Jan. 2S. In searching for a woman who might be Interested In hiding Johan Hoch, the alleged "Bluebeard," the police have secured evidence which leads them to believe that Hoch was aided in his quest for wealthy widows by two per sons, a man and a woman. While there are no specific charges. It Is believed the two suspects are withholding Information which would be of great assistance to the police. The officers Intimate that several arrests may soon be made. The man In the case Is an employment agent, and the woman Is said to have been one of Hoch's numerous wives. Each has furnished the police with much In formation. There Is, however, a feud be tween the pair, and each accuses the oth er. The man declares that the woman has been Illegally married many times, and that there are charges pending against her In connection with one, of the marriages. In return the woman states that her ac cuser was ari accomplice of Hoch and watched the cash windows 'of savings banks In order to "spot" widows who made deposits. Discovery of another wife of Hoch, in the person of Mrs. A. S. Houk, of Peoria, IIL, may be the outcome of a letter received by Assistant Chief of Police Schuettler from the woman to day. Mrs. Houk asked that a picture and a description of -Hoch be sent her. She said that some years ago she married a man who gave his name as Houk, but that this man really may have been Jobann Hoch. Fearing that Hoch may have succeeded in sailing for Europe, the Chicago police today directed that wireless telegraphic messages be sent from New York to all steamers having left that port within the past three dors. Ofllcers of the State's Attorney's office will leave for New York to bring Hunt to Chicago. Governor Deneen today signed extradition papers for Hunt. About $200,000 worth of stock In the de funct Institution Is said to have been taken by Easterners. The money has not been found by Receiver Day.

F. M. McKey was appointed receiver for Hunt. After searching three days. Mr. Day to night reported that he had discovered as sets of a face value of $17,200 and $75,000 of liabilities. Of the liabilities $48,900 are savings. Individual accounts and foreign drafts.' TiTATTR COLLEGES UNIVERSAL. Kaiser Plans Exchange of German and American Professors. BERLIN. Jan. 28. Emperor William has directed, the Ambassador to the United States. Baron Speck von Sternberg, to lay before President Roosevelt in official form the suggestion for an exchange of professors between Germany and America that the Emperor mentioned to Ambassa dor Tower on New Year's day. The Am bassador, who sailed on the Kaiser Wll helmder Grosse January 25. only carries an outline of the project which the Presi dent will be asked to approve and co operate In making a workable plan. The Emperor has Invited several Ger man professors to present him with their ideas on the subject. Professor Adolph Harnack, one of those Invited, writes In the Pruessische Jahrbucher that the great scholars of the Middle Ages were not tied, fast to any one country. They lectured at Naples, Boulogne, Paris, Co logne and Oxford, and their students fol lowed them. Professor Harnack explains the advan tage to students of spending a part of their period of study abroad. An ex change of students, he adds, necessarily suggests an exchange of professors. Only a few students can now have the advan tage of study abroad, but larger numbers will get that advantage when the pro fessor himself goes abroad to lecture. He refers to Lord Kelvin, Sir William Ramsay and Nansen, the explorer, as having lec tured in Berlin. Professor Mueller, he says, came to Strasb'urg to give lectures while retaining his Oxford professorship, and he adds that Professor Gregory, of Lclpsic, Is American by birth and a pro fessor at a German university, and has given a course of lectures In America. The simplest means to Inaugurate pro fessional Interchange, according to Pro fessor Harnack, Is to Invite distinguished professors from abroad to give courses of four to eight lectures. But this is not enough. The best thing. If It can be done. Is to call for an entire six months tour or even longer. "In exchanging professors." continues Professor Harnack, "we think In the first instance of America. Harvard and Ber lin are already now negotiating a plan RHEUM A TIS NOT A SKIN DISEASE, I was terribly afflicted with Rheuma tism for eighteen months, and during my sickness tried the skill of many good physicians, all of whom pronounced my j case hopeless.

If the Idea is sound it will then grow of itself. Difficulties Vlll have to ba overcome, like the six months' tours beginning and ending at different dates, and no university will be readily willing to let a favorite professor off for even a short time.

Jan. 20. via San Fran cisco, Jan. 23 (Correspondence of the As sociated Press.) When the Japanese Prince Fushlml passed through Honolulu on his way to the United States, he was received with fitting ceremony by Gov ernor Carter and Secretary Atkinson, and recently, on His Highness' return he left presents for the Governor, the Secretary and all others who had been charged with his entertainment. The Governor's present consisted of a massive silver punchbowl which has been much admired, but as Secretary Atkinson Is away In Washington, his present has not yet been opened. It now transpires that In accepting a gift from a "foreign Prince" the Governor has violated article 1. section 9, of the Constitution of the United States, which expressly forbids the taking of uch presents. Just what the Governor Is going to do remains to be seen, but it Is expected that he will ask permission of Congress to accept the gift. , Potter Safe in Mexico. CHICAGO. Jan. 2S.
