Newspaper Page TextTHE SUNDAY OREGOIJIAN, PORTLAND, MARCH 12, 1905. IS 1 NEW MARKET FOUND Portland pets Oriental Hay Trade Jrom San Francisco. TO SHIP MANY CARGOES First Lot Is Now Being Loaded Here, and Another Steamer Will Ar rive in Two Weeks for the Second Shipment. Portland la reaching out In a new line of export business that bids fair to swell materially the tonnage of the port. The Oriental demand for hay has become ur gent, and already several cargoes have been sold for shipment from this city. The first lot Is now being loaded on the steamship Has Elba here, and another vessel will be In port the first of next month to take out the second shipment, while several more large consignments will go forward at a later date. The trade circular o a large Arm o hay dealers at San Francisco, Just re ceived, says: "It is unfortunate that the large for eign shipments which once looked so promising as an oVlet for considerable hay should nave ceasea enurejy. at is reported, however, that forage supplies In Eastern Siberia are very short, and should there be a cessation of hostilities before the new crops are harvested there, shipments would again commence." The lack of business that Is depressing the San Francisco market Is explained by the fact that the orders which the Bay City merchants expected to get have been placed in Portland. An almost unlimited quantity of hay can be procured in the territory tributary to Portland, and now that the Asiatic market has been secured, it is believed the trade here can hold its own, particularly -as the quality o North western hay Is far superior to that pro duced in California. Several cargoes of Oregon hay have been shipped to Manila, but the Has Elba will be the first steamer to take this article from Portland to a distinctly for eign port. The steamer Is receiving good dispatch at Albers' dock, and will have all the forage aboard by Tuesday evening, so she can sail early Wednesday morn ing. She will take out nearly 1500 tons of hay, besides the same quantity of oats loaded at Seattle. The steamer to follow will likewise carry oats from Seattlo and hay from Portland. It was the intention of the Albers Bros. Milling Company, which secured these large contracts, to ship all the forage from Portland, but they were made to secure dock room here for the entire amount, and were forced to ship the oats from the Sound. The company's place In this city is by no means a small affair, but It is filled al most to Its capacity with hay, reduced to bales by double compression. It has not been determined what steam er to send here after the Has Elba, but It will be either the Sandhurst or the Ivy dene. Both vessels are now on the way to the Sound, the Ivydene having sailed from Morong March 4. and the Sandhurst from Moji last Thursday. These steamers are much larger than the Has Btba, and ran carry more than 1000 tons more cargo lhan the vessel now here. The Ivydene is a turret-deck steamer, built three years ago at Sunderland, and is 540 feet long, with a net tonnage of 2277. She is owned by J. T. Lunn 6c Co.. of Newcastle, Eng land, and is commanded by Captain J. TIppett. The Sandhurst is older, having been built in 1E51. at Newcastle. She registers 2768 tons net. and has a length ot 375 feet. She is owned by the Britain Steamship Company, of London, and is under command of Captain J. Foley. The steamer was launched under the name of Saint Enoch, and later, with a change of owners, was rechristened the Toronto. She took her present name when she was sold the second time, last December. The Portland hay cargoes that have been sold for the Orient will be forwarded to the German port of Tslngtau. What will be their ultimate destination is not known here, as it is a matter that does not concern the sellers. The officers of the Has Elba are positive, however, that the forage Is Intended for use by the Rus sians, and that an attempt will be made to smuggle it by coasters to Vladivostok or some other Siberian port, with which the Russians are in touch. HENDERSON TO THE DALLES Steamer Is Chartered by the Regu lator 'Line. The Regulator Company has chartered the steamer M. F. Henderson for freight and passenger business between Portland and The Dalles. She will leave the Alder street dock at 7 A. 3L Tuesday and will make alternato trips with the steamer Regulator until the Dalles City Is again ready for service. Tho freight traffic on the Upper Columbia has been too heavy for the one boat that the company has been running, but it has been unable to secure the services of another craft until now. Captain Sherman will go out as. master of the Henderson, with Captain Alden as pilot. It Is hoped by the company to have the Dalles City ready for service by April 1, but it may be a later date before she. goes Into commission. The Bailey Gatzert will probably resume her runs on, tho upper river on May 1. The Kamtn Company is planning to put the steamer Lurllne back on the Astoria oute Monday morning.

AMERICAN ART TOR AMERICANS Director of Metropolitan Museum Says Talent Abounds. LONDON. March 1L More pure Amer ican art by American artists for America is the essence of the ideas held by Sir Caspar Clark, the newly appointed direc tor of the Metropolitan Museum of Art at New York, of what is most needed in America. In an interview with the Asso ciated Press today. Sir Cappar spoke en thusiastically of art In America, and cor dially of his recent visit to the United States. He aald there was no reason why the museum at New York should not be one of the greatest in the world. He ex pects to develop art in America, .and hopes to teach Americans to have greater con fidence in their own artistic judgment.' their own resources, their own artists and U "In building the museum, I ahall avoid the errors that have hampered the great museums of, this country. There shall be no cliques and no fossils In the Metropol itan management If I can prevent it. "Americans fail to recognise their own geniuses. The country Is full of talent. Rnmn nf the best artists in Eurone are Aroerlcan?born, but Americans demand ht thpv shall be hall-marked in England or in Europe before they will pay Amer ican prices for their work. "The line arts should be fully developed right in America, not simply for art's sake but with a view to their application n th i-.rt list rlec As an instance, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art there are not rattenis ot lurniture lor American manufacturers to study, ana in otner oe Trartmnnti siirh as textiles, cold. Silver. bronze and lronsmlths work, the museum is very deficient. I believe the finest silks in the wot.d could beraleed and the best art patterns could be raised in America, if tVio silk culture was developed in the South. It would ultimately become one of the -most important industries of the coun trv. "I found foreign art everywhere I went in the United States, but l hope the day will come when American art will be the most oought after by Americans." Sparks Vetoes Law Against Dives RENO. New. March 1L Governor Sparks vetoed the bill prohibiting the sale of liquor within five miles of any camp or place where Government work is In progress in Nevada.

VOTE ON TREATY SOON SENATE MAY END SPECIAL SES SION SATURDAY. Neither Party Will Caucus on Do minican Affair, and Party Lines Will Not Be Drawn Closely. -VASHIXGTON, March 12,-iJany sen ators are indulging in speculation as to the length of the session required to take action on the Santo Domingo treaty, and whether party lines will be drawn taut when the treaty comes to a vote. Thus far It has not developed that either party will caucus, and, in fact, so much differ ence as to the fate of the treaty has been manifested that it is not believed there will be any attempt to line up the forces. Few Senators were at the capltol to day, but nearly all of those who were in their committee rooms expressed the opinion that. It there should not be a line-up, and they are agreed that one is not likely, the treaty will be brought to a vote by the end of next week, and that the special session may be adjourned sine die on Saturday. GERMAN CLAIMS ARE TOO HIGH Negotiations for Settling Samoan . Indemnity Drag. WASHINGTON, March 1L The negoti ations between America, Great -Britain and Germany looking to a settlement of the Samoan Indemnity claims, have prac tically come to a standstill, owing to a wide difference of opinion as to the ex tent of damage sustained by tho Ger man subjects In the Samoan group, as a result of joint operations by the Ameri can and British naval forces in 1900 to suppress a rebellion. The question of the liability of Ameri ca and Great Britain for the damages sustained by German plantation owners was decided by King Oscar of Sweden, in favor of the claimants la 1302, but the ax- bitrator did not attempt to assess indi vidual damages, leaving this to be adjust ed by negotiation. These negotiations have dragged along ever since 1302, and the principals now find themselves no nearer an agreement than at the begin ning. The German claims amount to about 553,000. The British and American negotiators insist that this wm Is exces sive and that 523,000 Is a good price for the property destroyed. It is probable It will be necessary to ap point a commission to take tesumcny as to the extent of the actual damage, though the smallness of the amount in volved would seem to make this an un duly expensive undertaking. Meanwhile the claimants are becoming restive and are bringing pressure to bear on the German government to secure settlement. WILL BE PROMOTED AND RETIRE List of Civil War Veterans Who Will Become Brigadiers. WASHINGTON, March 1L Officers of the United States Army who served In the Civil War, and who, with one excep tion, would not reach the grade of Colo nel on the date which would retire them for ace. will be nominated for promotion to the grade of Brigadier-General and TCtire in the order named.

March 1L The Prcsl dent has recently promulgated several amendments to the civil service rules, and their general effect is to increase the scope of what is known as the competi tive service. By tho most impoftant of these amendments inspectors of the Sur veyor-General and district land offices and special agents of the General Land OfSco are hereafter to do appointed only arter an examination.

BOMB KILLED BOMB'TH ROWER He Pretended to Be English, but Was French Revolutionist. ST. PETERSBURG, March 11. The ex plosion of a bomb at the Hotel Bristol, adjoining the Hotel d'Angleterre here, just before daylight this morning, blew to atoms the owner of the bomb, a man with an English passport and giving the name of Alfred Henry McCullough. and wrecked the adjoining rooms, killing the wife ot an officer and Injuring several other lodgers. The explosion was heard blocks away and created a tremendous sensation. McCullough's legs were torn off and the flesh of the upper portion of his body spattered the walls and ceiling, which were red with blood. The police believe McCullough was charging the bomb when it exploded. At the British Embassy and Consulate. McCullough is unknown. It is not believed he was a British subject. - There is not the slightest doubt that the man killed was connected with terrorist plots. The bomb was of the same power as those which Jellied the late Minister of tho Interior, Von Plehve. and Grand Duke Serglus, creating the same havoc as did the explosion at the Hotel Du Nord last Spring. The preliminary investigation of tne police leads them to beueve tnat .Mc Cullough was engaged either in packing his effects, as tho Hotel Bristol was to be vacated today, or In preparing for some desperate enterprise, when the bomb, which like all the Infernal ma chines of the Terrorists, was provided with gravity tubes, fell and exploded- as the one at the Hotel Du Nord did. The police immediately surrounded the hotel, mounted gendarmes allowing no one to go within 50 paces. An independent investigation made by tne Associated Press seems to establish beyond all question that the man killed was a Terrorist Icadef. His passport, of course, was fictitious, but the man was a foreigner, not a Russian. At the Hotel De Paris, where he has been stopping from time to time since the middle of January. McCullough was described as an Innocent-looking man be tween 30 and 40 years old, resembling more a Frenchman than an Englishman, speaking French with the fluency of native. He also spoke English, which. however, he bad little occasion to use at the hote, where ho kept much to him self, going away on frequent short trips. Just before Grand Duke Serglus was as sauinated. the man was absent for two days, which might connect him directly with the Grand Duke's murder. McCullough professed to bo engaged In business, but In view of what has hap pened, his movements are admitted to have been mysterious. Some of the police aro inclined to think McCullough was a direct emissary of tho Paris revolutionary organization. Mob Law Rules in Samara. ST. PETERSBURG. March 1L Advices from Samara say that anarchy is reigning there. The authorities aro passive in the face of the most appalling outrages. Numbers of people have been killed by bands of roughs and no one ventures out in the streets. Out of the Way of Bombs. COPENHAGEN. March 11.

Swift Tobogganing. . The Bystander. The top section of tho Cresta Run at St. Moritr, known as tho "Church Leap" Is something steeper than the roof of a. house; and to seo one of the masters of tobogannlng negotiating it, is a vis ion for the gods. But the most exciting place, without doubt, is at the flnisn. After a longish strip of straight, and a sudden dip, toe course rushes up a steep hill, and at the summit losej Itself In soft snow on the levdl. So ter rific Is the speed ot the tobogganer at this point that, although he brakes bard up the hill, he cannot prevent his ma chine from leaping skyward at the top. To see rider after rider swoop up that slope, and ny Into the air, landing 20, SO and 40 feet off in a shower of snow. Is to experience an Indescribable thrill. Frog Catches Fish. Field and Stream.

Plea for Playgrounds. PORTLAND. March 10. (To the Editor.) There li a diversity or opinion respecting A Full Dollar's Worth Free . Can Any Ailing One Refuse? I will pay outright for your first dollar bottle of Dr. Shoop's Restorative. I ask no deposit no promise. You take no risk you pay nothing:, either now or later. The dollar bottle is free to those who have not tried my remedy I -want no references no security. The poor have the same opportunity as the rich. To one and all I aay, "Merely write and ask." I will send you an order on your drug gist. He will sive you free the full dollar package. I can afford to offer a full dollar's worth freo because mine Is no ordinary remedy. Ordinary remedies treat symptoms. My remedy treats the causes that produce the symptoms. Symptom treatment must be kept up forever as Ions as the cause is there. My treatment may be stopped as soon as It has removed the cause, for that Is always the end of trouble. There is no mystery no miracle. I can explain ray treatment to you ua easily as I can tell you why cold freezes water and why heat melts Ice. Nor do I claim a Inside Nerves I Only one out Of every 83 has perfect health. Of the 87 sick ones, some are bed ridden, some are half sick, and some are only dull and listless. But most of the sickness comes from a common cause. The nerves are weak. Not the nerves you ordi narily think about not the ntrres that gov ern your movements and your thoughts. But the nerves that, uagulded and un known, sight and day. keep your heart in motion control your digestive, apparatus regulato your liver operate your kidneys. These are the nerves that wear out and break down. It does no good to treat the ailing organ the Irregular heart the disordered liver the rebellious stomach the deranged kid ney. They are sot to blame. But go back to the serves that control them. There you will and the seat of the trouble. There Is nothing new about this nothing any physician .would dispute. But it re mained for Br. Shoop to apply this knowl edge to pat it to practical use. Br. Shoop's Restorative It the result of a. quar ter century of endeavor along this very line. It does sot dose the organ or deaden the pah) but It does go at once to the serve the Inside nerve the power nerve and builds It up, and strengthens It and mokes tt well. For StoTnach Troubles The stomach Is controlled by a dellcaSi serve called the solar plexus. Prlzedghters ksow that a blow over the rtomsch a solar plexus blow means a sure knock-out. For this nerve Is ten times as sensitive as the pupil ot your eye. Tet the solar plexus Is only one of the centers -of the great Inside xierve the power nerve. It is one of the master nerves. The stomach Is its slave. Practically all stomach trouble Is nerve trouble inside nerve trouble solar plexus trouble. Br. Shoop's Restorative strength ens the inside nerves strengthens the solar plexus asd the stomach trouble disappears.

One of the first suiom aUes that I noticed on arriving In Oregon 23 years ago. was schools and no play grounds! T had never seen such an anomaly before no playgrounds for school children. Where better could they spend their quar ter of an hour, or so, before school and again at recess? I should like to see them there again for awhUe when school is over. I chanced on merry groups on the Haw thorne ground the other morning early, and, selng them made me happy for the day. What's a close, dreary basement compared with God's open air and sunshine, or even his soft Oregon mist? Study will go on thn better for short relaxations of brain and active play of muscle. The Japanese are sj adept at their studies as they are at their Jiu-jitsu. The quickened circulation of the Many Ailments One Cause I have called these the inside nerves for simplicity's sake. Their usual name Is the "sympathetic" nerves. Physicians call them by this name because they are so closely allied bcaute each is In such close sym pathy with the others. The result is that when one branch Is allowed to become lm jpalred. the others weaken. That Is why one kind of sickness leads Into another. That is why cases become "complicated." For this delicate nerve Is the most sensitive part of the human system. Does this not explain "to you soma of the uncertainties of medicine Is it not a good, reason to your mind why other kmds of treatment may hare failed? Boa't you see that THIS lr NEW in medi cine? That this Is NOT the mere patch work of a stimulant the mere soothing of a narcotic? Bon't you, see that.it goes right to the root of the trouble and eradicates the cause? Bnt I do not ask you to take a single statement of mine I do not ask you to be lleva a word I aay until you have tried my medicine In tour own home at my expense absolutely. Could I offer you a full dollar's worth free If there were any misrepresenta tion? Could I let you go to your druggist whom you know and pick out any bottle he has on his shelves of my medicine were it not UNIFORMLY helpful? Could I AF FORD to do this if I were not reasonably SURE that my medicine will help you? For Kidney Troubles Tho Kidneys are tho blood filters. They are operated solely by the inside nerves. The- branch whleh operates them and regu lates them Is called the renal plexus. When the renal plexus Is weak or Irregular, the kidneys become clogged with the very pois ons they should throw off.
