It seemed that all Portland
was out to attend the grand and
auspicious opening on Thursday
night of the "Lotus" at 127
Sixth street. It "was the great
est event of the .season and peo
ple were amazed at the magnifi
cenoe of this elaborate buffet
and billiard parlors, being un
equalled in the "West.
All day and evening on Fri
day and Saturday the public
was inspecting Portland's most
recent and pleasurable resort.
The enthusiasm that has been
created is without a parallel in
the history of the city.
Portland had seen the trans:
formation of an ordinary build
ing into the grand and gorgeous
"Lotus."
Morris Nelson is the sole pro
prietor of the "Lotus" and it is
his ideas that are embodied in
this handsome $50,000 buffet
and billiard parlors. It will be
a strictly first-class place, cater
ing ojjly to respectable men and
allowing no rowdyism at any
time.
It is well known that the lotus
is thefavorite Egyptian flower,
and the entire decoration of the
place has been carried out to
harmonize and- be suggestive of
this flower.
The exterior view of the
building is herewith presented
in the accompanying halftone.
To appreciate thoroughly the
Is magnificence of Jhe place, it
must be seen, it can be saia inat
it has the most attractive exte
rior in the city.
The entire first floor is de
voted to the buffet, which is of
beautiful mahogany, and the
back contains two of the largest
mirrors ever shipped "West, be
ing each 18 feet 6 inches long by
6 feet 6 inches high. .
On this floor are also com
partments with comfortable
seats, telephone booths, writing
desks, lounging chairs, safety
deposit vaults and strictly mod
ern and sanitary lavatories.
On the second floor are the
billiard and pool tables and all
accessories to make the patrons
comfortable. The t a b 1 e s are
made of Circassian walnut, be
ing inlaid with pearl. Opera
chairs are arranged on raised
platforms around the room for
players and guests. Clothing
lockers are at the disposition of
the patrons, and private lockers
for cues have not been forgotten
by the proprietor.
While the Lotus will be the
best of its kind, popular prices
and patronage will prevail.
Service and attention will be
given alike to all patrons." In
launching his business in Port
land,, the proprietor has laid
down strict business rules, and
proposes to follow them. It
might well be said that his sys
tem will be the new order or
twentieth century buffet. The
difference between this place
and the average buffet will be
as great as that between noon
day and midnight.
Special attention has been
given to installing a ventilating
system. This is known as the
suction plan, and air is changed
every 60 seconds by an auto
matic arrangement. Ventilator
vents are placed at various
places through the first aud sec
ond floors, pipes to these vents
leading to the rear of the build
ing, and the impure air dispelled
into the cpen. At the same time,
the system is again filling the
room with pure air. This avoids
the odor usually found in buf
fets. The lighting effects have been
given equ-'iily as careful atten
tion. All lights are made from
beautifully stained glass. Above
the writing room is placed a
large various colored glass re
flector, back of which are lights.
This gives a splendid and easy
light. In the center of the room
is another such scheme, and at
each compartment are smaller
lights worked out in the general
color and lighting scheme. The
lotus flower is prominent in
each light. The same lighting
system is carried out in the bil
liard parlor, and above each
table is a suspended plate glass
of harmonious color.
The ice box is equipped com
pletely with modern fixtures,
and a large humidor is the, only
one of its kind in the city.
Glassware throughout the hoiise
Morris Nelson, Proprietor
is specially designed for this
place, and is of the beautiful
Belgian style. Silverware has
also been selected in harmony
with the general scheme:
Mr. Nelson formerly conduct
ed the M. & N. buffet at Daw
son, Alaska. He was in charge
of that place for 10 years, and
visitors to that city know of the
place. It was at one time con
sidered the best equipped and
most business-like place in the
Northwest. The Lotus buffet at
Seattle was also built and con
ducted by Mr. Nelson. In mak
ing his bow to Portland Thurs
day evening, he extends a warm
hand and good fellowship. He
says his motto will be business
first, last and all the time.

PRICE FOR LOGS
CONTINUES
CD
ih i n .i us, r-m in Oripnn ha been hanv
pered considerably. High freight rates
and the uncertainty of adjustment of
rates hare had a serious effect on tha
logging; and lumber Industries In the
state.' But. notwithstanding this situ
ation, conditions generally are In good
shape and I look for a vigorous r
nrl of activity In all the large camps
at an early date."
MANHUNT
SUCCESS
Operators Say Industry in
Oregon is in Healthy Con- :
dition Now.
WORK IS DELAYED BY RAIN
riant Prepare to Resume Activity
WTicn Weather Moderate Re
port That Quotations Have
Declined I Krronrous.
Prevailing prices for logs In the Co
lumbia River camps are satisfactory
and the logging Industry Is In a health
ful condition, according to leading op
erators of Portland.
R. s. Karrell. of the Pacific Logging
Company, said yvsterday that some of
the 'concern's plants had been shut
dewn on account of weather conditions,
but that all would resume operation
just as soon as the rainy season was
over.
"The report sent out from Astoria
that log prices had declined Is erro
neous." said Mr. Karrell. "As a matter
of fact, the best-grade stuff commands
a good price. Our company has sold
all of Its stock on hand, consisting of
three rafts, and with the three grades
the average price a thousand feet was
n excess of $10."
W. B. Ayer. of the Eastern A West
ern Lumber Company, which operates a
large sawmill In Portland and a string
of logging camps at Kufala. Wash., de.
dared that log prices were entirely
satisfactory.
"If logs do not come to over $7.50 a
thousand feet, such as reported at As
toria, the sale must represent the sale
f a poor lot of loss. Notwithstanding
that we are operating our own camps,
we have been sending out Inquiries for
mwlogs desired to suit special require
ments, expecting to pay the market
.rtra far them."
Speaking for the Whitney Timber
Company. A. B. Wastell said that the
flr output of that company's plant
had been sold ont entirely ana iu ai
ders are on band to handle the output
until the first of the coming year.
-We are receiving good prices for
our stuff: $IS a thousand for No. 1 f!r
logs: $10 for No. J logs, and J for
No. I logs. The nrst grade represents
clesr or nooring logs: the second, mer
chantable logs, and the third grade Is
uaed for common purposes. There is
but a small percentage of the third
grade In the output. The average price
on the output we have Just sold p
nnvimatea lie a thousand feet."
Expressing confidence In the log
market. J. S. O'Oormu. or tne isw
sis Timber Company, said that there
was no Indication that values would
decline.
-on the other hand. I think that
prices will remain normal." said Mr.
CTOorman. "As a matter of fact, the
stock of legs la the Columbia River Is
unusually low. As the output Is sold
ahead and Inquiries are being reeeivea
daily. It Is natural to suppose that logs
will Increase In value during the next
few months Instead of declining.
"As to curtailment of the output. I
think It Is a wise measure, as lumber
prices have been low ter soma time a&d

Writer Is Caught.
DOMINIC JONALI IN JAIL
Police Believes He Demanded $1000
From Pete Bruno by Threat.
That Organized Band Exists
Here Is Late Theory.
Two detectives and half a dosen un
official sleuths, secreted in various van
tage points, waited until a late bour
for the blackmailer who had sent a
threatening letter, demanding $1000, to
Pete Bruno, proprietor of a North End
resort. arly yesterday morning their
efforts were rewarded by the capture of
Dominic Jonall. against whom a strong
circumstantial case is established in con
nection with the attempted crime.
In a letter received Friday morning,
Bruno was ordered to deposit $1000 In a
mail box on a stairway at 10V First
street that night, upon pain of death.
Acting under Instructions from Captain
of' Detectives -Moore, Bruno made prepa
rations to comply with the demand, sub
stituting an envelope full of newspaper
clippings for the money.
Detectives Coleman and Snow, with a
rifle, established themselves in an office
overlooking the mall box. and numerous
friends of Bruno's, volunteering for the
hunt, and loaded to the gunwales with
artillery, planted themselves In adjacent
doorways. When all were about to give
up, Jonall was discovered prowling about
tiie vicinity, and was halted and ques
tioned. He said that he lived In the neighbor
hood, but upon being released started
for the North End. Bruno remembered
Jonall as a man who had rushed into
his place last Monday night, immediately
alter the killing of R. Patrit. an Italian
cook, and who had taken htm to task
tor the murder, saying "You killed him
and you shall pay for it."
Jonall was overtaken and arrested on
a technical charge. He denies knowledge
of the communication to Bruno, but is
being held on a technical charge until a
full Investigation can be made.
Taken In connection with the killing
of Jacob Rossi In Sellwood a week ego.
the attempt upon Bruno is believed by
the officers to show the existence of a
nredatorv organization in this city.
Patrolman Moloney learned from Italian
sources yesterday that Nicola Pontlere,
who Is believed to be the man who shot
Rossi while resisting highway robbery,
returned to his former residence in this
city a few days ago. and said that he
would remain away because he feared
death from Rossi's associates. Pontlere
hud been practically exonerated Dy tne
officers, who believe that he was pro
tecting himself when he shot riossi. ana
word was sent out for him to give him
self up and aid the police in capturing
Rossi's companion in the supposed hold
up. Pontiere Is quoted as saying that
he would do so, were It not that he
would surely be killed by Rossi's friends.

Its arrival. They entered the field

"It was only a chance in a thousand
