a-' THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND; HAKGBT 25; K LOVE FINDS II WAY Marriage Ends Young Zelaya's Romantic Wooing. ALL OBSTACLES OVERCOME Sou or Xicarsguan President "Weds American Girl Kidnaped by Father's Agents, lie Returns to Claim Ills Bride. WASHINGTON. March 24. (Special.) A romance ot dramatic interest culminated at noon today, when Alphonsc Zclaya, son ot the President of Nicaragua, led Miss Marguerite Lee Baker, of this city, to tho altar, under a bower of ro?es, at the home of the bride's parents. Dr. William Baker, the father, gave her away. Rev. Dr. L O. Baker performed the ceremony. The croom is anxious to take his brido to Cfcaragua. There is not believed to have been a pro saic moment in the courtship, which be gan sevoral months ago during Zelaya's visit to this city, when he met Miss Ba ker at a fashionable boarding-house. It was love at first sight. Preparations for the wedding Interrupted the military training of the yonng man, which had been begun at West Point. It was during this period that three, men one night entered the parlor of the board-Ins-house, while the young folks were en gaged In conversation, and seized young Zelaya. He was forcibly removed, Im prisoned in an apartment hotel for sev eral days and then sent South, where he was put aboard a steamer for Nicaragua. Before sailing, he. managed to wire his sweetheart that he would return. The father was at first obdurate, but finally consented to the wedding for fear that his son would carry out his threats of self-destruction. He landed in New Orleans six weeks ago, but was taken 111 with appendicitis. At one time his life hung in the balance. He finally reached Washington last Monday. C0NFESSI0N0F STANDARD Continued From Page 1.) missions noted on the record, and Judge Priest viid it was understood, of course, that these admissions were made subject to an examination as to its materiality to be passed upon by the higher courts. Admits Fact as to Time. Mr. Hadley then said he wished it un derstood that those admissions of stock ownership covered the period of time named In the Information. The trust tol torneys agreed to this, and made a new admission that, for the purpose of this litigation only, it would be admitted that a. majority of the stock of the Standard OH Company of Indiana and all the stock of the Republic OH Company 'is held in the Interest of the Standard Oil Com pany of New Jersey. "Strike out the word 'interest,'"'" de manded Mr. Hadley, "and make t read held for the Standard Oil Company pf Now Jersey.' " "Very well." replied Judge Priest, with a smile, "make it read that way. And we. al admit, for the purpose of this liti gation only, subject to exception, that all of the stock of the Waters-Pierce Oil Company standing In the name of M. M. Van Buren Is held in the interest of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey." "Strike out that word 'interest,' " again interrupted the Attorney-General, "and make it read 'held for the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, and also I want the admission to read that the stock Is now held as admitted, and was also held during the time named in the Informa tion and complaint." The change and admission was recorded as Mr. Hadley asked. UoRcrs' Memory Again Fails. Mr. Rogers' examination was then re sumed. He denied knowing that reports of the Waters-Pierce Company were made to 16 Broadway, and said they were never made to him. He had not discussed busi ness of that company with H. M. Tilford from 1901 to March 1905, but presumed he had with others, but could not recall the time or place. Mr. Hadley then asked: "Can you recall any person with whom you discussed the business of that com pany, and can you give the details of any conversation you had relative to the busi ness of the Waters-Pierce Company?" "I don't think I ever discussed the de tails of the business of the Waters-Pierce Company. I may have discussed it as a general proposition or in a general way." "With whom?" "I can't recall now." "Bid you ever know a Mr. R. H. Mc Calir' "I think so." "What Is his present position?" "I may have heard that he was In Mr. Tilford's ofllce?" "Did you ever hear he was also the commercial agent of tho Waters-Pierce Company, with offices at 26 Broadway?" "I nver heard of it." , Mr. Hadley then excused Mr. Rogers, pending the production of certain papers in connection with the subject. As Mr. Rogers left the stand he thanked Mr. Hadley for his courtesy. "And when will you want me again?" he asked. "I will let you know in ample time, Mr. Rogers." Mr. Rogers bowed, then shook hands with Mr. Woollman, who is associated with Mr. Hadley, and left the room. AVhat W. G. Rockefeller Knows. William G. Rockefeller was then called. He said he Is assistant treasurer of the Standard OH Company, of New Jersey: that Mr. Tilford is treasurer, but he does not know Mr. Tilford's business. His uncle. John D. Rockefeller, is president, and his father, William Rockefeller, vice president. The witness denied that he had any con nection with the Standard OH Company, of Indiana, and also that he had any knowledge of any reports having been made tq anyone at 36 Broadway concern ing the business of the Waters-Pierce Oil Company, the Republic OH Company or the Standard of Indiana. Mr. Rockefeller als denied that he was a director f the Staa4ard. Oil Company 9f New Jersey, er a stockholder in either of the Standard cetRpanJes, or that he had any knowledge of the banmesa affairs ot the three re gpwiotit companies. That e4e4 the testimeny ef Mr. Rocke feller, &a4 he was exeueed. As a4$riafteat was asked fer hy Mr. Hadley, -who said he had subpen&ed & let of memorandum books and data, that would greatly facilitate the examination of the next witnesses and the remainder of Mr. Rogers' examination. For that reason, and to give time to produce the books and papers, he asked- for an ad journment until Monday. This was grant ed by Commissioner Sanborn. , Prove Standard Manages All. It Is expected that when the hearing is resumed next week. Mr. Hadley will commence his efforts to prove the second portion of his case namely, that the management of the Waters-Pierce Com pany and the Republic OH Company, as, well as the Standard OH Company, is under the supervision of the officers, of the Standard Oil Company. At the conclusion of today's hearing Assistant Attorney-General Rushland served upon Mr. Hagerman, representing the defense, an order requiring his clients to produce on Monday next over a hundred letters that are said to have passed between the respondent com panies in the West and 26 Broadway. In each instance the order cities the name of both writer and recipient, as well as the date the letter was mailed. These letters, it is understood, are expected to disclose the control of the two companies operating In Missouri by the Standard Oil and show that even the detail of the management Is directed from 26 Broad way. Among the witnesses who will be ex amined Monday are John D. Archbold, Wade Hampton, H. M. Tilford and J. C. Arnold, all of whom are officers of the Standard Company. It is not probable, however, that the evidence of theso wit nesses can be completed Inside of three days at least. Both Parties Satisfied. Mr. Hagerman, lawyer for the Stand ard, said at the conclusion of tho hear ing today that he felt rather pleased at the result of the first day's work. Speaking of the admissions made as to the stock ownership of the two com panies, he called attention to tho fact that they had not been made subject to exceptions as to their materiality, a point for the higher courts yet to pass upon. While Mr. Hadley seemed to think that he had practically proven his case, Mr. Hager man and others of the Standard's at torneys said there were other and equally important allegations yet to be sustained. Mr. Hadley, In speaking of the admis sions made by the Standard Oil Com pany at today's hearing, said: "That is practically my case. That Is the point I set out to establish and I have established it beyond a doubt. This admission shows that everyone, no mat ter how powerful, must respect the majesty of the law. I do not need the testimony of John D. Rockefeller or any other officer of the Standard OH Com pany on the points that I hare had such difficulty In clearing up." Did Xot Visit Grandson. NEW YORK, March 24. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., denied today the re port that his father, the president of the Standard Oil Company, had come to New York from Lakewood, N. J., last night to sec his Infant grandson, the son of John D. Rockefeller. Jr. William Itockcfcller Healthy. NEW YORK, March 24. A cable dis patch to the Herald from San Remo, Italy, says: William Rockefeller left here yesterday with his party of friends for Nice and Cannes. He Is in perfect health and has been staying here a few days, making excursions in the neighborhood. FALLS INTO REBEL TRAP GOVERNOR OK SAMAR 31 AY BE CAP TIVE OP rULAJANES.

CONFER ON BRISTOL President Consults Moody, Ful ton and Heney. KEEN CONTEST PROMISED Attorney-General and Senator Op poser Reappointment Hcney Rec ommended Bristol and Says Charges Arc'TrivIal. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, March 24. President Roosevelt today sent" for Senator Fulton and Attorney-General Moody to talk over the case of District Attorney Bristol. What the conference accomplished cannot be stated, as none of the participants will discuss It or give any Inkling of what disposition will 3c made of the case. It Is stated, though not officially, that the Oregon Bar Association has declined to take any action In the premises, hav ing returned the papers submitted by the Attorney-General several weeks ago. It was probably to talk over this latest de velopment that the conference was held. In case Mr. Bristol Is removed. It is quite probable that Mr. Fulton will be requested to recommend some one for the office. Hcney Champions Bristol. Immediately after the conference with Mr. Fulton and Mr. Moody, the President had a talk with Francis J. Heney. upon whose recommendation Mr. Bristol was appointed. Mr. Hcney, it la said. Is in sisting that the charges against Mr. Bristol be dismissed as trivial and un worthy of serious consideration. He will use his utmost efforts to overthrow the opposition and has confidence of winning out. Mr. Heney's position was explained in these dispatches yesterday and it Is understood he made similar statements to the President today. He is making a vigorous fight for Bristol for two reasons; primarily, he contends that Mr. Bristol has been guilty of no offense warranting his dismissal; and secondly, having stood sponsor for Mr. Bristol, he is anxious to have him retained. Keen Contest Approaches. It looks as if there would be a keen contest between Mr. Heney on one side and the Attorney-General and the De partment of Justice on the other, for It is understood that th-s Department ot Justice long since unanimously agreed that Mr. Bristol should be let out.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal Is the- safest and most efficient disinfect ant and. purifier In nature, but few realise i. t-oiHn when taken Into the human system for tho same cleaaelag purpose.

Charcoal sweetens" the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and Improves the complexion. It whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the Injurious gases which collect In the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal la one form or another, but probably the best char coal and the most for the money is In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and. ether harmless .antiseptics In tablet form or rather la the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the char coal being mixed with honey.

Grunsky. consulting engineer of the Reclamation Service, in his adverse report on the Palousei Irrigation project says: Zt has becom clear that circumstance do nat favor nor warrant undertaking; tho Paloune project to lone as others with les doubtful features are brought within reach of the funds at the disposal of the Secre tary of the Interior. In consideration of the conditions as found and especially In view of the elements of unusual risk to which the Palouse project Is subject, the project should for the present be suspended from further consideration. As soon as construc tion Is authorlred on the Yakima and Okano gan projects, the land withdrawn from entry for the benefit ot the Palouse project should be restored to entry and that thereupon no further consideration should be Riven to this project. Mr. Grunsky finds that It -would be possible to reduce the Palouse project to a cost of KC03.CC) by eliminating cer tain land, but the cost per acre cannot be brought below $60. The restricted fund to the credit of Washington on June 30 next, will be $2,000,000. but more than that has already been al lotted for the Yakima and Okanogan projects, both of which Mr. Grunsky believes will be built. He therefore sees no way of constructing- tho Pa louse project and. in view of this re port. It will be set aside for several, perhaps many, years to come.

If more or less of the above symptoms are present, no invalid woman -can do better than take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, one of the leading Ingredi ents of which Is Unicorn root, or Helonlas. and the medical properties of which it most faithfully represents. Of Golden Seal root, another prominent ingredient of "Favorite Prescription Prof. FInley Elllngwood, M. D., of Ben nett Medical College, Chicago, says: nIt is an important remedy in disorders of the womb. In all catarrhal condi tions and general enfeeblement, it is useful." Prof. John M. Scudder, M. D., late ol Cincinnati, says of Golden Seal root: "In relation to its general effects on the system, there is no medicine in vse about which thcrt is such general unanimity of opinion. It Is universally regarded as the tonic useful In all debilitated states." Prof. Bartholow, M. D., of Jefferson Medical College, says of Golden Seal: "Valuable in uterine hemorrhage, menorrhagia (flooding) and congestive dysmenorrhcea (painful menstruation). " Dr.Plcrce's Favorite Prescription faith f nllr represents all the above named in gredients and cures the diseases for which they are recommended. Of Black Cohosh, another ingredient of " Favorite Prescription." Proi. John King, M. D., author of the American Dispensatory, says : " In the painful conditions incident to imperfect menstruation, its remedial ac tion Is fully displayed. By its special affinity for the female reproductive or gans, it Is an efficient agent for the restoration of suppressed menses. In dysmenorrhcea (painful periods), it is sur passed by no other drug, being of great est utility in irritative and congestive conditions of the uterus and appendages, characterized by tensive, dragging pains. resembling the pains of rheumatism. It is a eood remedy for the reflex 'side-ache ( of women. It should be remembered In rheumatism of the uterus, and in uterine lencorrhcea." Blue Cohosh root, and Yellow Lady's Slipper root, the two remaining ingredi ents not mentioned above, have just as strong endorsements for their curative ; merits in diseases peculiar to women, but we have e room for no more. " Favorite Pre scription" Is a happy and harmonious compound of the above mentioned Ingre dients and faithfully represents them in curative results.
