The date of the formal opening- cere mony for the canal will be decided be fore the President leaves here and the exercises will take place soon after he reaches there. On the old battleship Oregon, which attracted world-wide attention on her famous run around the Horn just be fore' the Spanish War. the President with members of his Cabinet will make the first official passage through the canal, and then proceed to the Panama Pacific Exposition at San Francisco. The date of the President's arrival there had not been detemiHied today or the date of hia return Cast. All that will be arranged later and to an extent Is dependent on events Inter vening. IVIne Nations to Join Parade. So far nine of the maritime countries have signified their Intention to take "part in the great naval parade through the canal, and it is certain other par ticipants will be announced before the end of the year. The countries that al ready have accepted are the Argentine Republic, Cuba, France, Germany, Great Britain. Italy. Japan. Portugal and Rus sia. The entire Atlantic fleet of the American Navy will form the nucleus at Hampton Roads around which the international naval forces will gather. The officers ana men of the fleet will be the Nation's guests. After the ceremonies at Hampton Roads are over, the President will take up his quarters on the superdread nought New York, which will.be at that time the most formidable vessel in the world. Then the start will be made for Colon, with the New York leading. The ships will form a column many miles, in length, for it Is estimated that there will be between 80 and 100 ships in the procession. ,.-r . Ancient Launch t o Head Line. 'Arriving at Colon within , a week, there will be a delay of a couple of days while arrangements are being made to pass the vessels through the canal. This will be done with all ceremony, the line being headed by the ancient steam launch Louise, the gift ef the Amer ican Government to the government Of France. The Oregon is to follow, with the Presidential party. Including Admiral Clark, the Cabinet, members of the Senate and House of Represent atives and distinguished guests. The Admiral of the Navy, George Dewey, will be invited to make the passage, but it Is doubtful if his health will per mit. Allowing one hour's time for the passage through the locks of each ship and a day for Its transit through the canal, the whole fleet should be trans ferred from the Atlantic to the Pacific in the course of about four days. If all goes well the first vessels of the International fleet -should pass through the Golden Gate by April 16, 1915. $200,00QHQTELPLANNED WASHINGTON LEASED, 12 - STORY STRUCTURE TO BE BUILT. i " Mrs. Harry W.

Hogue, manager of the Nortonia Hotel, Kleventh and Stark streets, leased the Washington Hotel, Washington and Twelfth streets, for 10 years yesterday. It will.be merged with the Nortonia. S. Morton Cohn, owner of the Nor-, tonla building, has assured Mrs. Hogue he will build a $200,000 hotel building or her on the corner of Eleventh and Washington streets as soon as she wishes it constructed. Mrs. Hogue said last night she would like to have such a building erected In time for the tourist travel that undoubtedly will come to Portland during the 1916 expo, sition at San Francisco. "Probably It cannot be constructed by that time," she said, "but the actual construction of it will begin before many months pass. The corner build ing will be 12 stories high with a glassed-in dining-room on the roof garden. Its bulk will fill in the gap between the present two buildings which we operate, giving us a front on three sides of the block." The former Washington Hotel Is owned by Henry W. Fries and the Kramer estate. The former lease was owned by the Annex Hotel Company. The two buildings of the new Nortonia will give Airs. Hogue 800 rooms. The original Nortonia was first built for Mrs. .Hogue several years ago. It subsequently was operated by the Bow. ers Hotel Company, under the man agement of Wright and Dickinson.

Reports were current here tonight that the Huerta delegates, in view of concessions already made by them in the proceedings thus far, now were asking that the United States make some concessions in . the plan proposed py them for the establishment oft the new government. It Is argued from the Huerta viewpoint that he first yielded to the demand for his elimi nation and that he subsequently yield ed the stipulation of his commission ers that he be permitted to name a Secretary of Foreign Affairs who would succeed him as President and then name the provisional government to be selected by the mediation con ference.

CHICAGO, June 13 The future of the La ,Salle-Street Trust & Savings Bank, William Lor liner's institution, which was closed yesterday by the state, rests on disclosures which will be made by the report of Daniel V. Harkins, state bank examiner, to State Auditor Brady. This will be turned over to Mr. Brady, who will come to Chicago on Monday morning. "There Is not much hope," was Mr. Harkins' brief comment tonight after he ended the first general survey of conditions. Mr. Harkins said he had in prepara tion a list of former large depositor who had withdrawn their accounts since June 1. He said that about that date the deposits exceeded $5,000,000 and they had shrunk to about $2,700,000 the day the bank was closed. To meet these deposits there was less than $50,000 in the vaults. Those who made heavy withdrawals recently will be asked to J explain them, the bank examiner said. The next step, he indicated, would be the application for a receivership. While experts were examining the records of the La Salle-atreet bank and three other state depositories which were closed because of their heavy ao- counts in the downtown bank, two other small DanKs closed their doors. One of them, the State Bank of Calumet, prob ably will reopen next week. Mr. Har kins said."

The climax of the celebration was the, parade of the alumni, several thou sand strong, from the campus to the baseball field to see Princeton play Yale. The. President walked nearly a mile along dusty roads behind a blar ing band and beneath a hot sun, but all the way his face was wreathed in smiles. The march was a continuous ovation for him.

Army Proves Loyalty. The attempt of the anarchists, re publicans and socialists to deal a death blow to monarchlal institutions was frustrated because of the refusal of the railway men to bring about a strike which would have virtually paralyzed the forces of the government; because a great majority of the population re fused actively to follow them, and be7 cause the army gave a fine example of loyalty. The troops are now in control of the main centers of the Insurrection An cona. Fabriano, Ravenna, Forlia and Parma.

The crowd was almost as large as the record-breaking gathering of Tuesday evening and as appreciative. While the crowd expressed apprecia tion over the beautiful set pieces, it became most demonstrative when the giant bombs exploded in mid-air, send ing forth thousands of varl-colored sparks in the shape of a great, brilliant umbrella descending slowly to earth. An attraction that was popular was the "naval battle." Two big fighting ships, outlined in sputtering flames above the water, sent fiery ballsr ac companied by deafening explosions, against one another, presenting a scene of brilliant beauty.
