SEVERAL SEATTLE BUYERS

ol City Taken by Investors
From the Sound City Good
Movement Under Way.
I-ocal realty dealers are greatly en
couraged by the heavy demand for Port
land property which Is coming from out
Bido capitalists. During the past two
years this phase of the. local market has
been constantly gaining In Importance
until today ther Is more outside money
being offered for investment here than
evor before. In the past the great bulk,
of doaling haa been done among the local
residents, but it Is evident that the situa
tion is destined to assume aulte a differ
ent aspect, and it is certain that with
the indux of new capital the present up
ward trend of values will continue.
Even with the recent advance in prices,
Portland property is still held at mucn
lower figures than ttl other cities of equal
or even less population. In Seattle, for
instance, prices are mucn nigner man
here. There is a reason for this situa
tion, rortlaud has never adopted the
I boom methods of many other cities.' As
" n conspquence values have been inflated
in other cities, while here they are below
actual values, figured on the basis of
. revenues now returned. Residents of
other cities who have large amounts to
Invest are beginning to realize the ex
ceptional opportunities offered In Port
land and aie taking advantage, of themv
. The presence of many outside buyers

Kast is gradually finding . Its way to
Portland for investment in realty, and
local dealers are unanimous in asserting
that more of this outside money will be
jsppnt here during the next six months
limn at any previous time. This is In
dicated not only by the presence of out
side buyers in the city, but by exception
ally numerous 4ftters of inquiry which

PDLIGE PI PARIS HOUSE
NOTORIOUS RESORT REOPENS,
BUT IS PROMPTLY CLOSED.
v- :
'Jim" Phillips, the Proprietor, and
Six Inmates Arrested One Minor
Found' In the Dive.
A bold attempt on th part of "Jim"
Phillips to reopen the notorious den
of vice at Third and Davis streets
known as the Paris House, was prompt
ly nipped in the bud last evening by
Detective Sergeant Baty and a squad
of plain clothes men from police head
quarters, who raided tho place and
arrested Phillips. slxvomen and a 19-year-oldooy,
who was found in one
of the rooms.
During the afternoon rumors were
afloat to the effect that Phillips had
sought legal advice and that he had
been informed that a good plan would
be to attempt to reopen the place on
a small scale, to see what action, if
any, the police would take. It was
but half an hour after he permitted
the six women to enter the Fourth
street annex of the big dive that Ser
geant Buty and his men arrived. .
The Paris House was closed two
weeks ago by Sergeant Baty and Act
ing Detectives Hill and Burke, who
were following out instructions given'
them by Chief Gritzmacher at the or
der of Mayor Lane. It was stated at
the time that the place would not be
allowed to open under any circum
stances. "Jim" Phillips, proprietor of the
house, was booked on a charge of
running a disorderly house, and was
released on- cash bail of . $250. Tne
women were charged with being in
mates of a disorderly house and were
released on $25 bail each.
In one of the rooms the police found
R. C. Armstrong, aged 19 years, who
lives with, his parents at 22 Bast Six
teenth street. He was taken to police
headquarters, where he was charged
with frequenting a disorderly house,
and was later released on bail.
It is positively asserted' at ' police
headquarters that no dens .of Iniquity
such as the Paris House' was will be
permitted to run in Portland. A myste
rious Individual has fitted up such an
establishment at Second and Everett
streets, but Chief Gritzmacher declares
that it will not be permitted to open.
SALOONS ARE i LESS
TACOMA GETS $28,000 A YEAR
MORE THAN BEFORE.
Council Is Considering the Proposal
to Advance the License From
$800 to $1000.
TACOMA. Wash., Nov, 24. (Special.)
Tacoma has 140 saloons, exactly the same
number as before the present saloon oral
nance wertt. Into effect about six months
ago. There is apparently no tendency to
decrease the number because of the in
creased fee from $600 to $800, as -the op
ponents of the measure urged at the
time of its passage. If this condition
continues the city will find itself at the
end of the first year of the new ordinance
Just $28,000 richer and with saloons much
more orderly than ' they were under the
Old regime.
There Is said to be a probability that
the Council will endeavor to amend the
saloon ordinance In the near future and
advance the license to $1000.
BOMB IS READY TO BURST
German Prosperity Reaches Climax
' and "Investors Hold, Off.
BERLIN, Nov. 24. Although Germany
is on the top wave of prosperity, skeptic
ism as to the duration of the boom has
been inoreasing for several months and
the outside public has kept aloof from
speculative investments in indhstrial
stocks, notwithstanding the continued un
usually bright annual- reports of the com
panies showing large gains, the declara
tion of dividends, increases in orders and
higher prices for manufactured products.
This sober attitude on the part of the
private investors is beginning to gain the
support of the manufacturers and bank
ers, who, being able to glance behind the
scenes of industrial activity, express fears
that the torn has already exhausted it
self. When asked to give reasons for
this view the manufacturers and bankers
point to the dearness of money, the high
prices of commodities, the higli wages
and the expensive operations to which
all the industrial companies have been
subjected.
Every branch of manufactures is taxed
to its utmost productive capacity and In
the coal and iron industries supplies must
be purchased in large quantities from
abroad, chiefly from Great Britain. The
mines and furnaces have booked orders
months ahead, but will be unable to make
deliveries.
The state railroads in the commercial
regions are far from being able to cope
with the traffic .requirements and in the
Essen district a shortage of coal ears
results In preventing from 35.000 to 50.000
tons of coal from reaching the consumers.
The receipts of the railroads for October
are $1.0CO,000 above those of October, 1905.
an increase of 11 per cent, and the for
eign trade of Germany shows the heavi
est, movement ever known in both ex
ports and imports.

Burlington Road Suffers From Coal

OMAHA, Nov. 24. The Bee today says:
The Burlington Railroad Is about to de

ISSUES WORTHLESS PAPERt
Stensland's Crime Brings Another
Crash In Chicago.
f
CHICAGO. Nov. 28. Chauncey L. Gra
ham, vice-president of the Steel Ball Com
pany, was arrested last night at his resi
dence in Bvanston by detectives from the

MYSTERY IN0HI0 TRAGEDY
Mother and Daughter Found Dead.
. One or the Other Responsible.
UPPER SANDUSKY. O.. Nov! 24.
(Special.) Did Mrs. Henry Harmon pois
on her daughter Mae, then herself, or
vice versa? Or did they1 die from the
fumes of .natural gas? Coroner Stuta
rendered a verdict that they died from
the effects of morphine and it is the opin
ion that Miss Harmon first murdered
her mother and then committed suicide.
Mrs. Harmon was the widow of one of
Wyandotte County's wealthiest farmers.
She and her daughter, aged about 30,
lived together. Not having been seen
for two days, Mrs. Harmon's married
son, with an officer, forced an entrance
to the house this morning and found the
daughter dead and the mother dying,
both in bed. In the room was a small
gas stove and the presumption was that
they had been overcome by the gas
fumes. Mrs. Harmon died later.
In Miss Harmon's shoe behind the bed
was found a bottle labeled "5o0 morphine
tablets." It contained only 50.

V
Catarrh, is not merely an inflammation cf the tissues of the head and
throat, as the symptoms cf ringing' noises ia the ears, mucous dropping back
into the throat, continual hawking and spitting, etc., 'would seem to indi
cate ; it is a blood disease ia which the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involved. Catarrh is due to the presence of an excess
of uric acid in the blood. The Liver, Kidneys and Bowels frequently be
come torpid and dull in their action and instead of carrying oil the refuse
and waste of the body, leave it ta sour and form uric acid in the systeift.
This is taken up by the blood and through its circulation distributed to all
parts of the system. These impurities in the blood irritate and inflame
the different, membranes, and tissues of the body, and the contracting
of a cold will start the secretions and other disgusting and disagreeable
symptoms of Catarrh. As the blood goes to all part3 of the body the ca
tarrhal poison affects all part3 of the system. The head has a tight, full
feeling, nose continually stopped up, pains above the eyes, slight fever
comes and goes, the stomach is vpsct arid the entire system disordered and
