The Sen ate agreed today to bgin at 1 o'clock Monday the voting: upon the articles of Impeachment against Robert W. Arch bald. Judge of the United States Com merce Court, charged with misdemean ors and the misuse of his judicial fluence. ' No debate by members of the Sen ate will be permited during the voting, but under a resolution offered by Sen ator Hoot and adopted, a Senator will have an opportunity to make a brief explanation of his vote In writing, to be printed as part of the Senate pro ceedings in the case. Secret Session Complete Details, Arrangements for the final steps In the case against Judge Archbald were made in a secret session of the Sen ate. The question of whether a Judge could be impeached for offenses that did not make him subject to indict ment under the law was raised by Sen ator McCumber, of North Dakota, but was withdrawn without a formal vote. The legality of impeachment proceed ings, based on acts committed by Judge Archbald before he became a member of the Commerce- Court, was also brought Into question by Senator Clarke, of Arkansas, but was not threshed out in the Senate. Voting JVot o Be Delayed. When the Impeachment court recon venes at 1 o'clock Monday, the first article of impeachment will be put to a vote without further delay. Senator Hoot today offered a motion to give the question of "guilty or not guilty, submitted individually to each Senator, on each of the 13 articles of impeach ment. This was modified at the suggestion f Senator Clarke, of Arkansas, and the individual question to each Senator, followed in the case -of the impeach ment of President Andrew Johnson, will give way to a general submission of each article, to be followed by a roll- -aii vote on each. Modified Penalty Suggested. It Is expected that in case Judge Archbald should be found guilty by a two-thirds vote on any article of im peuchment, a resolution will be offered by some Senator proposing that the penalty shall be limited to his removal Jrom office and shall not bar him in the future from holding office. This proposal was not made formally in the secret session today, but probably will bo proposed if the accused jurist should be convicted. Leading members of the Senate expressed doubt today as to the success of the proposed plan to modify the penalty. The first article of impeachment upon which a vote will be taken alleges that Judge Archbald tried to Influence of ficials of the Erie Railroad, which had fuits pending in his court, to grant him a iavorame option upon a refuse coal dump owned by a subsidiary of the rauroau.

MARKET BLOCK TO BE SITE (Continued From First Pa sc.) general supervision over the construc tion of the Auditorium and he promised that every detail will be carefully gone into, so that Portland will have one of the very best public auditoriums n America, with a seating capacity as arge as Madison Square Garden, with no essential feature eliminated. Having completed the general scheme for the building, it Is next in order for the architects to proceed with their working plans and specifications, upon which the contractors are to be asked to bid when finished. Mr. Freedlander as ho hesitation in saying that he be lieves a contract should be let In the ate Spring or early Summer, and he hinks the auditorium should be com pleted in about one year. The building will not be run out to the building line, he said, as It is the desire of himself and associates to have a proper setting for the auditorium, but the details of this have not been worked out as yet. They will follow when the construction work is under way, but that the grounds will be beau tified in fitting manner, he is sure. The exterior will be classic, mate rials for construction being terra cotta and light brick. Needless to say. it will be absolutely fireproof throughout and will be equipped with every mod ern convenience, the arena feature be ing the chief one on the. interior, where large exhibitions, such as automobile shows, poultry shows or similar exhi bitions may be held. Main atraace oh Clay Street. The main entrance will be on Clay street, where there will be a long flight of stone steps, almost the entire width of the building, leading up ' into the auditorium, to the ticket lobby, where the ticket booths will be located. There will be several entrances here, so that throngs of people may get into the building quickly. There will be. rest rooms fr women, smoking rooms for men and every con' venience that the art of building knows. Full equipment for balls, ban quets and special attractions of every kind will be installed, and special care will be exercised in the lighting sys tem and the acoustics, so that it will be second "to no auditorium in this country, said Mr. Freedlander. There will be about eight exits from the balcony, opening out directly onto the sidewalks, so that, in case of emer gency, using all of the exits in the en tire building, it could be emptied of 10.000 persons in two or three minutes. Special private entrances into both the Second and Third-street side of the building will be provided, much on the order of the Metropolitan Opera House In New York. The seating ca pafity will easily care for 7500 persons, while 2.p00 more will be able to get comfortable accommodation on occa sions where it is necessary. Dancing Provided For. The floor of tho Auditorium will be of concrete, but there will be a special wooden floor, with seats for about 3400 persons, which may be brought into requisition for dancing and other events when such is .needed. The floor will be flat, the idea being to make it com fortable for livestock shows, etc., and no attempt is to be made to make the Auditorium in any sense a theater, as the architects say that the city is well supplied in this line, but it is not equipped for proper showing of horses and cattle and such exhibitions. It will, however, have about 60 boxes. Booths for the saie of confectionery will be provided: there will be a big green room off tne stage and special entrances to the stage from the street. Keintorced concrete will be used for the interior furnishings, as in all mod ern structures. Chairman Wilcox, of the Auditoriun Commission, said last night that he will call a meeting of the members just as soon as w. D. Fenton returns to the ctty from California, which will be som time this week. Action as to a site will then be taken, but it Is believed certain that the Market block will be accepted, as there is no money with wnicn to purchase another. . Mr. Freedlander declares that . the Market block is a good site, and he Is satisfied with it, as, he says, it can De easily reached and is accessible by streetcar rrom every point. BALDNESS VS. CIVILIZATION Baldness, instead of being a matter for ridicule, is in reality a badge of civilization, according to the researches of modern scientists. Miss George, of Portland, Or., has made a special study of the affection, and deprecates the common tendency to regard it as a joke and the relegation of its treatment to barbers and beauty shops. It is a great disadvantage wnen It occurs in a man and a misfortune in a woman. Re ferring to the treatment of baldness. Miss George says the question resolves itself into a matter of stimulating the tissue of the scalp and increasing the Dlood supply of the follicles. Out of a multitude of prescriptions, the bald man may take his choice. A few lead to desired results, provided they are used persistently and intelligently, but the proper method must be followed. The hair growing from the altroplued papillea is slow In coming forward, and it does take months, but with the aid of hair to gain a purely medicinal and nonlnjurious scalp food, with the method of treatment recommended by Miss George, the desired result may be ootained much more rapidly. Miss George declared. In her experience, wo men persist in the treatment and get results. Men do not and become bald. j Moscow Woman. Is Buried.' MOSCOW, Idaho. Jan. 11. (Special.)

An investi gation of the International Mercantile Marine, the $120,000,000 American cor poration controlling numerous foreign and American steamship companies, with J. P. Morgan as the chief witness, is contemplated by the House com mittee on merchant marine in connec tion with its hearing of the so-called shipping trust. Mr. Morgan is believed to have organized this great company and to control its stock. Chairman Alexander, of the commit tee, announced tody that Mr. Morgan probably would be subpenaed immedi ately upon his return from Europe. P. A. S. Franklin, vice-president of the White Star Line, one of the important companies connected with the Interna tional Mercantile Marine, already has been subpenaed and probably will be examined in the near future. Much Stock Owned. The International Mercantile Marine owns the entire capital stock of the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company (the White Star Line), the Interna tional Navigation Companv (the Amer ican and the R,ed Star Lines), the Mis sissippi & Dominion Steamship Com pany and the British & North Atlantic Steam Navigation Company, and owns the controlling interest in Frederick Leyland & Co,, with the shipping bffsi ness of the Ismay, Imrie Company and Richard Mills & Co. The combined sailings of the various companies . covers 45 services. New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, New Or leans,' Galveston, Montreal and Port land, Me., to Liverpool, to Plymouth, Southampton, London, Havre, Cher bourg. Bremen and Antwerp. The cor poration also operates various, lines in the distinctly foreign service. Agreementa Are Dlacnaned. At the investigation today Chairman Alexander asked Paul Gottheil, whose firm represents several lines, f rate agreements existed among lines trading between Atlantic ports and the Far East and between Japan, China and the Philippines, and whether there was a pooling arrangement by lines between Atlantic ports and the Far East. Gott heil said he had no definite knowledge, bnt believed such agreements were still effective. Rates fo these lines were fixed, he said, at conferences held in New York every Tuesday. The wit ness said a great many ships under foreign flags probably were owned by Americans. As to traffic between the united States and Baltic ports the witness said the Scandinavian-American, Hamburg- American, North German Lloyd and Wilson lines, were in agreement to make the same rates and divide traffic. The Norway-Mexico-Gulf line, he said, was in strict competition with the Scandinavian-American Line . in the trade to Copenhagen and Chrlstlania. Between New York and Rotterdam and Amsterdam, the Holland-American and Uranium companies have direct lines, in competition without rate or service agreements. 5 BANKERS SEEK PAROLE Applicants at Ijeavenworth Prison Xumber 15(f tn All.

In the death of the Umatilla warrior and chieftain history records an in teresting tale' of the rise of a power ful redskin, his achievements and llnal downfall. As the son of Chief TVe-nap-snoot, who governed the Umatillas during the Snake Indian outbreak in 1878 and the ever good friend of the whites, Peo came to direct the affairs of his tribe. One of his acts was the beheading of an Indian insurrection leader Egan and the subsequent presentation by Peo of same to Captain Miles, white com mander, encamped at the Umatilla agency.
