BURNED COLLEGE
- WILL BE REBUILT
Prospect That Philomath May
Lose United Brethren
Institution.
CHURCH CONFERENCE ACTS
la Resolution, Body Requests Trus
tees to Meet at Once to Settle
on Locution for the
Sew College.
The relocation"1' and " rebuilding of
Philomath College, which! was de
stroyed by tire law t Fall, for the sec
ond time in its history, was the main
topic for consideration by the Oregon
conference of the United Brethren
Church, in session in the Cloverdale
Church, near Woodlawn, yesterday.
Bishop H. I Barkley acted as chair
man, and che question was brought
up by the report on education sub
mitted by Mrs. C. P. Blanchard. in
which she urged the importance 'of re
building the Philomath CoMege, now
in ashes, and also the establishing in
connection with it of a theological de
partment. Rt Rev. w. Stewarc opened
the discussion by urging importance
of the school and the necessity of mak
ing a school for young men to study
for the ministry. He said that Myrtle
Point, Coos County, wanted .the school,
and that the business men offered a
site and from J3000 to $5000.
Rev. E. N. Cooking said Philomath
College had turned out some of the
best educators in the state, and de
clared in his judgment it oughc to be
rebuilt and rebuilt somewhere else
more central. Rev. A. J. Ware de
clared the Board 'of Trustees should
settle location and rebuild at once.
Walter Reynolds said the school should
be better located and rebuilt on bet
ter lines than before. Rev. R. Miller
said the school ought to be rebuilt.
Professor Davis remarked that in
selecting a new location the Board of
Trustees should select the place that
Would he most central.
"Without question Portland is the
most central." he said, "and it is the
most accessible' point in this.. state
from all parts and from Washington.
It has a large and growing popula
tion. Our members live here or near
here, and It Is most easily reached.
If you relocate the college at some
out-of-the-way place the church mem
bers will : be loyal . for a while, but.
they wijl become tired of sending their
children there, and the result will be
a failure."
Bishop Barkley, who it is said has
helped out more colleges and built
more churches than most any other
minister in the United States, declared
that there-must be an endowment of
from $45,000 tojO.OOO before he would
advise -the rebuilding of the Philo
math College. - He declared that unless
the members were willing to subscribe"
hundreds and thousands of dollars to
this fund he would advise the closing
up of the tnscitutlon. He and six
others had carried the Philomath Col
lege for more than 18 years, and he
now wanted- the whole membership to
back up the Institution, or he would
say close It up. He proposed that the
members give their notes for J100 up
to $1000 or $10,000, bearing 6 per cent
Interest. That, he said, would enable
the college to be rebuilt and run suc
cessfully. The following resolution was then
passed: . .
Resolved, by the Oregon Conference of
the United Brethren Church assembled.
That the board of trustees of the Philo
math College be requested to meet at
once to settle the location of the new
college building and take steps to re
build the same, and also to transact
such other business as may come up at
the time.
Bishop Barkley read the following
appointments at the conclusion of the
business session:

RECORDS GO TO THE STATE
State Commission Sends Exposition
Documents to Salem.
Enough correspondence, records,
duplicates of vouchers and other pa
pers pertaining to the Lewis and Clark
Exposition were accumulated by the
State Commission to fill an ordinary
library. The business " o"f " the Com
mission was practically brought to' a
close at a meeting of the Commission
Friday night. Yesterday President
Jefferson Myers and Secretary Kdmond
C. Giltner were engaged in sorting and
boxing the papers which are to be sent
by freight to Frank I.' Dunbar, Secre

If all the letters and all the rec

they would contain - as much reading

American-Hawaiian Liner.
NEBRASKAN, COMING SOON
Both Vessels' to Ply Regularly Be
tween Portland, San Francisco -and
the Islands Nevadan Will
Not Carry Passengers.
The i American-Hawaiian .' Steamship
Company's big . liner' Nevadan -. reached
port yesterday. The American-Hawaiian
line of steamers comprises some of the
finest freighting craft on the Pacific. The
Nevadan is shorSly to be followed by her
porajily inconvenienced, for it was
necessary for them to postpone their
trips or take passage on the trains.
The steamer Telegraph was also dis
abled, in a similar manner the day be
fore, but she will be only delayed un
til Monday, as her owners announce
that she will be ready for her regu

ASTORIA, Or., July 21. (Special.)
Owing to the accident to the steamer
Potter abouc 350 passengers arrived
down on this evening's train en route
to North Beach. The most of them
were taken across the river to Ilwaco
on a number of small steamers and
launches, although a few will remain
here until tomorrow morning.
DELATED BY HEADWINDS.
Steamer Barracouta Strikes Severe
. Weather on Voyage Xp Coast.
ASTORIA, Or., July 21. (Special.) The
steamer Barracouta arrived this morning
from San Francisco, after a very slow
trip up the coast, the delay being caused
by the strong headwind, and when the
vessel came in she was short of provis
ions, although there was no distress. As
soon as the steamer docked at the O. R.
& N. wharf the president of the local
Longshoremen's Union notified Captain
Doran that the union men would not dis
charge the vessel's cargo, amounting to
William Harder, general agent for the
Great Northern and prominent among the
exponents of the Hill development o the
Northwest has discovered - that Japanese
may be assimilated by weaning them
away from Oriental customs and attach-
lnc them to American habits. He finds
that the natural diffidence of the Orien
tal In this regard can be easily over
come.
A. Yatsul and S. Awaya. high officials
of the Nippon Yusen Kaisha line of
steamships, of Tokio, were guests of Mr
Harder last week and he took them to
the Commercial Club for lunch. Knowing
the pleasant habit of Mr. Harder to put
a keener edsye -on his appetite by the ap
petizing cocktail, the waiter" brought three
of these great American drinks and placed
one before each of the trio.
The Japanese members of the party
gazed at these concoctions askance.. This
was no custom of their country to drink
strange liquors before luncheon, and they
looked their distrust of the innovation.
Mr. Harder, reassured his guests by ab
sorbing the cocktail with every evidence
of pleasure, and urged the Japanese to
follow suit, telling them that while this Is
a strange custom to the land of the
chrysanthemum, it Is a pleasant one' and
they would do well to acquire it. ,
The two felt constrained to do as they
were bid. true- to every Instinct of Ori
ental politeness. The bright red cherry,

POSED AS A CAPITALIST
Seattle Man Separates Los Angeles
People From Their Money.
LOS ANGELES, .Cal., July 21. (Spe
cial.) L. Spencer, who came to this
city from Seattle last December, pos
ing as a large capitalist, is wanted
hers upon the charge of defrauding
persons with whom he had business re-.
lation3 out of more than J10.000. Spen
cer left the city Monday, and Tuesday
four felony complaints were Issued
ngainst him. The complainants are D.
Kupelian, whom Spencer defrauded out
of $762 on -one occasion and J1034 on
another; Miss Annie- Feely, who lost
$1620, and M. S. Kornblum, $3680; S.
F. Miles, a restauranteur, says Spencer
has $2300 of his money.
Spencer represented to these persons,
nil tenants of the building at 132-140-160
South Broadway, that he owned the
property and had a 50-year lease on
the site.
Union Street-Car Men Quit;".
About 20 members of the Street -Car
Union have turned In thelr-badges to the
Portland Railways-Company nd resigned.
The reason for these retirements is sup
posed, to be utter disgust that a strike was
not called last week, together with the
fearhat may have been felt by the men
of discharge from the ranks on account of
their union activity. A meeting of the
union has been called for tomorrow night
to rearrange its affairs - and determine
what course shall' be pursued - Whether
to keep the organization aliv or hot is
a problem that will probably be settled
tomorrow.
Tries to Steal March on Friends.
Seeking to keep friends from knowing
of the fact that he had purchased a mar
riage license, F. A. Simpson, of 59 Sumner
street, rushed into the County Clerk's
office just a few minutes before closing
time yesterday and demanded that Deputy
County Clerk C. C. Rose iasue the permit
quickly. Simpson was very anxious that
no one other than his witness and the
deputy should know that he purchased
the license giving him the legal right to
wed Lillie F.. Hudson. When it was issued
Simpson left the Courthouse as quickly
as he came. - -
Double-Track Line on Burnslde.
The Portland Railway Company is at
work building a double-track line up
Eurnside street from Fifth to the junction
of Burnside with Washington at Sixteenth
This line will serve a large residence dis
trict, and will probably be used for the
routing of many of the cars that now go
up Washington street,- to relieve the con
gestion in traffic on that theroughfare.
It is expected to have the line completed
by the end .of the Summer.
Fire in Broom Factory.
A bad fire was narrowly averted
in Zan Bros.' broom factory at
Twelfth and Lovejoy streets last
night, when a pile of match wood in
the rear of the building caught fire and
threatened the storerooms. By the prompt
arrival of the department the blaze was
quickly extinguished. The fire was of un

sister ship, the Nebraskan, and the Mat
son Navigation Company's liner Hilonian
will continue to make regular visits here.
. The Nevadan brought over 800 tons of
merchandise consigned to local dealers,
which- was shipped from New York via
Jhe Tehuantepec route. This lot of freight
was transferred to the Nevadan at San
Francisco, aiyd the same procedure will
be followed by the other vessels, as well
as the Nebraskan, on the future visits of
the liners to this port.
Captain Green, of the Nevadan, re
ports a rough trip up the coast from San
Francisco, for almost all the distance
strong northwesterly winds were encoun
tered, which served to impede tne ves
sel's progress to a considerable degree,
but in spite of this drawback she had no
difficulty in beating the steamer Barra
couta up the coast, even though the Ne
vadan left San Francisco about 12 hours
after the coastwise liner.
Libius Curtis, first officer of the Ne
vadan, is a Portland boy, having been
born and raised in this city, and is a
graduate of the old Bishop Scott Acad
emy. This is Mr. Curtis' first visit home
in several years.
The Nevadan Is being discharged of her
Inward cargo as rapidly as possible, and
as soon as this is completed the work of
loading her will be commenced and
rushed, as tt is the intention of the offi
cers to get the. vessel away tomorrow
evening.
The vessel does not go direct to the isl
ands, but will 'call at Seattle and Tacoma
before proceeding on the rest 'of her jour
ney. She has several hundred tons of
freight for the Puget Sound cities and will
go direct to Seattle. -
The Nevadan is strictly a freighter, and
any passengers that may desire accommo
dations to the islands will have to await
the arrival of the Nebraskan of the same
line, which is due here in about three
weeks, or the Hilonian, which will arrive
here about one week earlier.
about 30 tons, for Astoria, because the
steamer carries a nonunion crew, which
is composed of representatives of several
races. Captain Doran then decided to
discharge the vessel with his own crew,
which was done. There was no disturb
ance of any kind on the wharf, and the
longshoremen did not attempt to interfere
with the discharge of the cargo.
MACHINERY NEARLY FINISHED
Mechanism of Steamer Jim Butler
Nearly Ready for Vessel.
Work on the machinery installation ' for
the steam schooner Jim Butler, for Olson
& Mahony, of San Francisco, Is advancing
rapidly. The Jim Butler will be launched
at the Llndstrom shipyard at Aberdeen at
the end of July, and will come around to
Portland for the machinery installation.
This consists of a 14x32x24-inch stroke fore
and aft, compound engine, with self-contained
condenser. The boiler will be of
the Scotch marine type, 10 feet 6 inches 1n
diameter, 10 feet 9 inches long, and will
be installed by the Willamette Iron
Works. The fuel will be crude oil, and
the fuel oil installation set will be com
pletely installed here.
In addition to the main engines and
boilers, there will be the electric lighting
plant, eargo wincnes, etc.
Contract has also been closed with E.
T. Kruse, of San Francisco, for another
complete installation the same as that
for Olson & Mahony.

Court, the case of .the recently -organized

LINER MAY HAVE TROUBLE
Barracouta Likely to Be Boycotted
by Local Longshoremen.
After being delayed several hours by
strong northwesterly headwinds on the
voyage up the coast from San Fran
cisco, the Portland and San Francisco
Steamship Company's steamer Barra
couta1 arrived in the local harbor late
last night for the first time since she
was tied up by the sailors' strike in
San Francisco.
The arrival of the vessel here does
not mean that her troubles are over by
any means, for it is reported along the
water front that she will experience
considerable difficulty in being dis
charged of her inward cargo owing to
the employment of some Orientals
among her nonunion crew. That the
vessel has Chinese and Japanese among
her complement is stated in dispatches
from Astoria, where the union long
shoremen refused to work the ves-
el, and if such proves to be the case
on her berthing at her dock here she
will probably be boycotted by the local
longshoremen, for they have repeat
edly stated that they would refuse to
work any coastwise vessel employing
Orientals in any capacity whatever.
The attitude of the : longshoremen
will be known when the vessel opens
her hatches this morning preliminary
to getting her cargo out, and at this
time the longshoremen will decide
whether or not the vessel is to be
worked by them or not.
The agents or the company are anx
ious to avoid any trouble with the local
unions, for the reason that it Is to
their interest to have the vessel loaded
and unloaded as quickly as possible,
and it is probable that if she has Ori
entals among her crew they will be
discharged this morning.

SAILORS ALLEGE TRICKERY
SECRETARY OF SEAMEN'S UNION
CHARGES EVASION OF LAW'S.
Says Pacific Coast Steamship Com
pany Has Avoided . Compliance
With Government Inspection.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 21. (Special:)
The Pacitic Coast Steamship Company
has been, guilty of trickery and evasion
of the laws governing all steamship com
panies, according to Andrew Furuseth, of
the Coast Seamen's Union. Furuseth has
the affidavits of two sailors who signed
o"n the steamer Umatilla, which left Seat
tle bound for this pprt on July 9. Accord
ing to these affidavits, there were not the
required number of sailors on the Uma
tilla when she put to sea, and longshore
men were put on the Umatilla to carry
out the boat drill required by the United
States Inspectors. The men were put
through the drill, say the affidavits, be
tween the hours of 5 and 9 o'clock at
night, when no inspectors were present.
After the drill, it is asserted, the long
shoremen were put ashore.
Andrew Furuseth will forward the sworn
statements to United States Inspectors
Bolles and Bulger, and will demand an
investigation.
accepted by only a few. This was due to
the fact that it was reported that the Kit
sap would not go down last evening, but
would remain over Sunday.
The new vessel is expected to set a new
mark for speed on the Sound, for on her
initial voyage she made as good as 30
miles, and her engineers claimed that she
could do even better than that if her en
gines were called upon for all that was In
them, which was not done on the trial
trip over which Captain Spencer bad su
pervision. Captain Reynolds will proTjably take the
vessel out this afternoon, and her voyage
to her future home port will have been
inaugurated.
