PORTLAND ELKS IN HIGH FAVOR SOUTH Are Royally Received by Cali fornia Cities While on Way 1 to Los Angeles. SACRAMENTO GIVES FRUIT Delegates From Iyoeal Herd Have Strenuous Day of Sightseeing at Different Places Where Stop, Are Made. ON PORTLAND ELKS SPECIAL Salinas, Cal., July 10. (Special.) After a strenuous day of sightseeing through California, during which the Portland delegation was entertained an hour each at Sacramento. Stockton and San. Jose, the antlored aspirants for the 1913 Elks reunion are resting as much as possible prior to their arrival at the Angel City. California's capital met the Orego nlans at the depot with the famous Capital City Band, and the travelers were escorted to the Elks hall, where a short but most pleasant reunion was held. On leaving Sacramento it was found that the baggage car had been stocked with a luscious supply of fruits. 'Watermelons, grapes, peaches and pears, all crated and marked with the compliments of the donors, were stacked high. The supply is more than ample to last the excursionists on this trip. Sacramento Promises Aid. Sacramento Is sending 300 to Los Angeles and has promised to support Portland's bid for the grand lodge meeting in 1912. At Stockton it was much the same, for the train was met by a committee from the Stockton lodge and a band. After the usual greetings, automobiles were put at the disposal of the ladies, and they were shown the city. This lodge has one of the handsomest houses in the entire country, and the, Stock ton bunch does not hesitate to boast of their home. San Jose was the next stop. 'and a most appreciable one. The San Jose Elks met the special train at the depot and escorted the party to their hall. Auto trips through the many parks and driveways were had. and many of the Portlanders have decided .to spend a day at least In San Jose on their return trip. Old Friends Greeted. J. J. Kelly, a former Portlander, met the special at the depot, and met with a most surprising reception, headed by Gus Moser and Henry Griffin. Kelly was rushed by a committee, hoisted on their shoulders, and carried proudly In front of the big crowd which had as sembled at the depot. The Portland excursion will stop for one hour at Santa Barbara in the morn ing before going to Los Angeles. Portland, No. 142, will have four votes at the Grand Lodge meeting, as follows: Dr. C. W. Cornelius, Dr. Harry F. McKay, John B. Coffey and H. D. Grlfttn. Miss Dottle, the young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Shea, who Is accom panying her parents, is the pet of the party. She is the only child on the train. ANTLERED ONES THRONG CITY Elks Have Things All Their Own Way In Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES, Cal.. July 10. Arrayed In the gay uniforms of their drill corps, thousands of the vanguard of the Elks paraded the down-town streets tonight and made merry with bands that played ragtime quicksteps, adding a riot of sound to the chromatic glare of many colored lights shining on the purple ban ners of the order which floated from thousands of trolley poles, entwined with the National red, white and blue. Special trains from various sections of the country arrived early, among the first being the train bearing Grand Exalted Ruler Rush L. Holland and Grand Secre tary Fred C. Robinson, delayed for 24 hours by rains in the Middle West. Others Included the Cotton States spe cial and trains from Michigan, Illinois. New Jersey, Arkansas, Texas, Colorado, Arizona. Washington and vicinities in California. At the registration headquar ters maintained by the Los Angeles l,odge there were upwards of 16,000 recorded dur ing the day. Twelve special trains scheduled to ar rive Sunday will swell the list to fully 30.000. To these will be added the trains from Pacific Coast points, and many from Northern Coast cities, who will come by boat. It Is expected that fully 74000 visi tors will be In the city by Sunday night. Sunday the first regular scheduled event of the official programme -will take place. One thousand automobiles will be pro vided, and the guests will make a sight seeing tour of the city. August Garry Herrmann, of Cincinnati, candidate for grand exalted ruler of the Elks, arrived at 2 o'clock this morning on a special train, and will take the field against J. U. Sam mis, of Iowa, who has had the advantage of a day on the ground working among thos already here. He was escorted to the Alexandria Hotel, where he opened headquarters. Bay City to Greet Mexicans.

GRAND JUNCTION Colo., July 10. Three trainmen killed and one fatally Injured, and traffic tied up for more than 12 hours are the results of a head on collision that occurred about 3 o'clock this morning near Cisco, Utah about 60 miles west of here, between section 5 of westbound Denver & Rio Grande passenger train No. 8 and an eastbound sheep train.

The Elks special had orders to pass the sheep train at Cisco, but the crew of section S knew nothing of the freight. Fourteen special trains carrying Elks to Los Angeles. Cal., were held all day on account of the wreck. They left for the West at short Intervals begin ning at 5:30 this evening. MUST PAY ALL FOR WATER New Irrigation Rule Will Cause , Many Settlers to Lose Farms. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. July 10. It became known today that un'der the new regulations recently issued by the Interior Department home steaders on Government irrigation proj ects who have not made full payment for their water, but who have completed five years" residence, cultivation, etc.." in full satisfaction of the homestead laws, will no longer be per ml lied to sell their en tries in whole or in part, as was per mitted by order of Secretary Garfield. Under the new regulation no settler on a Government project can sell any portion of his entry until he has made complete payment for the water. This modification it Is feared will be a hardship to poor settlers who heretofore have been allowed to seu out after satis fying the requirements of the homestead act. If unable to complete payments, they will be dispossessed of their land and forfeit all payments theretofore made. YAKIMA LAND AGAIN OPENED Ballinger Withdraws Order Closing Area to Be Irrigated.

POKES FUN AT ASQUITH Shaw's New Play, Suppressed by Censor, Given Privately. LONDON. July 10. The private produc tion Friday of Bernard Shaw's prohibited playlet, "Press Cuttings," seems to have done more towards achieving the aboli tion of the censorship of the drama than all of the serious agitation. The morning papers say they cannot understand why the censor put a ban upon "such an in offensive" sketch. The play Is clever and amusing, one act being a burlesque of current political topics, especially the suf fragette agitation. One of the most humorous situations is where a suffragette, who has been arrested and taken before the War Min ister, doffs the disguise of women's clothes and reveals himself as "Pre mier Balsqulth" and admits that his disguise Is the only means of passing through the streets In safety from the suffragettes. BOLIVIAN MOBS PROTEST Boundary Decision With Pern Said to Involve Loss of Land. LA PAZ, Bolivia, July 10. Thousands of Bolivians attended the meeting in a public square today to protest against the arbitrary decision of Argentina in the boundary dispute between Bolivia and Peru, it is reported that the Bo livian government will refuse to ac cept the decision, claiming that It Im plies the loss of national territory. The government has apologized for the attacks made by the citizens ou the Peruvian and Argentine legations, and has promised to prevent a repetition of these attacks. The street mobs, how ever, continue to be very disorderly. $30,000 Fire at Reno. RENO, Nev., July 10.

INSIST ON RIGHTS American Bankers Demand Share in Chinese Loan. REFUSE TO COMPROMISE Hold Out for State Department Terms and Almost Break Off Negotiations Lay Down Law to Chinese Rulers. LONDON, July 10. Representatives of American bankers now In London will leave for Paris early next week to make another effort to reach an agreement with European financiers for American participation In the Han-kow-Sze Chuen Railway loan of 27 -500,000. The greatest reticence Is maintained with respect to the meetings held in London this week. It Is understood, however, that the German and French bankers came here under the delusion that the Americans were prepared to accept a compromise. They found, how ever, that the Americans Insisted on the acceptance of the State Depart ment's terms and the breaking off of negotiations was only prevented at the suggestion, made by the continental representatives, that they be given time to consult with their respective governments, after which further meet ings would be held in Paris and Ber lin If necessary. It is certain that the Americans will not receds from their stand taken at the London meeting and. If necessary, will insist that Cnlna shall not sign the loan agreement until the Ameri can claim is recognized. CHANGE OF NATIONAL POLICY German Sees Deep Significance in x American Claims. ' BERLIN. July 10. The participation of the United States in the Chinese railroad loan is lengthily referred to by the Nord Deutsche Allgemeine Zel tung in its weekly semi-official article on foreign affairs:- It says that the claim of the United States to participate In the loan takes the character of a well-considered step of fundamental significance for a change in the country's international policy. It concludes by saying: "President Taf t thus for the first time has definitely shown that his opinion differs from that of Roosevelt." TEXAS SALOONS CLOSED Over 100 Thirst-Quenching Parlors Forced to Obey New Law. AUSTIN, Tex., July 10.
