Morning Aitorian, 65 md par month, GIVES UP WILSON RIVER ROUTE GRADE IS FOUND TO BE IMPRACTI CABLE AND RAILROAD WILL RUN FURTHER NORTH BUILD FORTY MILES OF TRACK. PORTLAND, July 3. Railroad build. era who desire to eliminate grades in reaching the Tillamook country from the Willamette Valley will not select the longtalked-of Wilson river route. After being placed at considerable expense, the Pacific Railway & Navigation Company has abandoned the proposed line along that stream aa it haa been found to be impracticable, the grade being fully 31 per cent. Instead, the road from a point 20 miles north we- of Hillsboro. is to strike the divide and cross the summit on' easier grades, the greatest against traffic or coming eastward, being 11 pep cent and 21 per cent in the opposite direction. Nearly every road that has been projected to the coast through that district has been planned to follow Wilson River, but the work would be difficult even if the grade were favor able. No survey was made previous to that finished by the P. R. A N., so the actual conditions were not ascertained until recently. Tracklaying was resumed today on the line, and it is thought that by July 12 about 17 mile northwest from Hills boro will be in operation. It has been decided after the experience had during the early spring, that as soon as the winter season opens construction work will be discontinued. It is hoped be tween now and that time to have at lea 40 miles of road completed, which will be about half-way to the coast, as the distance the road will travel i 81 miles. One of the chief delays encoun tered beside that of working during rainy weather, is to secure material, j Ste-1 has been arriving with fair regu larity, but small stuff such a bolts, spikes and fish plates, have been held up in transit. One order for bolts has been on the way isnce March and has not been delivered owing to the great rush of work at the mill. The company has not taken up right of way in some sections, particularly on the coast end of the road, because it was not deemed best to proceed with such operations until the line had been defi nitely located. Several surveys have been run in places as a means of deter mining the most desirable route, and not until the final location has been author ized will the land be secured. FEAR FOR AMERICA. Apprehension Felt For Safety of Fabr Line Steamer, Long Overdue. NEW YORK, July 3. No news of any kind is received from the Fabre line steamer America which sailed from Mar seilles, June 3, for New York, carrying 110 passengers are a crew of 40 men. Apprehension for the safety of the steamer was expressed in shipping circles today ,but the agents explain that she probably is disabled by broke- down machinery or the loss of her pro pell or. The anxiety was increased when it was learned from the hydrographic bu reau that a derelict for sometime has been directly in the path the America should have taken from the Azores, from which she sailed on June 11.

HEAT TOO MUCH FOR "OUR GEORGE" PRIVATE SECRETARY WIRES FOR SON TO COME AND HE GOES IN AN AUTOMOBILE NO CAUSE FOR ALARM NEED'S SON'S CARE. PORTLAND. July 3. Reports that Governor George E. Chamberlain wat critically ill, and that an automobile filled with doctors was rushing to his bedside at Salem from Portland, caused consternation among the Governor's friends this afternoon. W. E. Catena, his secretary, stated over the long dist ance phone at 1:30 o'clock that there was no foundation for the minors, and that His Excellency was in no danger. Early this forenoon a message wtt received from George Gatens by Dr. Chamberlain, the-Governor's son, re questing that he go to Salem and take care of the Executive, who was sick. The morning train had departed, so Dr. Chamberlain chartered an automobile and started at 11 o'clock on the 50-mile run down the Willamette Valley, with the thermometer standing in the 90s. The sudden departure of the doctor and the use of the automobile magnified the excitement until the rumor declared the Governor wa dangerously ill. Shortly after the automobile left Mr. Gatens notified W Governor's family that he was better. Speaking over the tele phone, Mr. Gatens said: "Governor Chamberlain is in no dan- ge. For the past two or three daye he has not been feeling well and the ex treme heat of yesterday knocked him out. The people where the Governor boards are away from home, and as it was necessary for me to be at the exe cutive office in the absence of- the Gov ernor I sent word to Dr. Chamberlain, suggesting that he come to Salem and keep his father company until the latter feels better. The Governor needs no medical assistance, but I do not like to have him left alone, and therefore no tified his son." Secretary Gatens was surprised when informed that Dr. Chamberlain was rushing to Salem in an automobile, and eaid thei circumstances called for no no 'such haste, since there was no oc casion for alarm.

TES BIG STORE WHERE YOU GET VALUE RECEIVED mm OBLIGING OFFICIAL. B. F. Barnes of Mrs. Minor Morrli Fame Known At Kindjy Man. WASHINGTON', July 3 ( Special ). Now that Benjamin F. Barnes has been confirmed by the Senate as potmater of Washington, and the "Mr. Minor Morris" Incident is thus officially clewed, it perhaps is not ami to say somethinx to the credit of this young man, who has been the target fop so much condemna tion and abue. No attempt is made here to. explain away the ejection from the White House of Mrs, Morris. Thatsaffair is shrouded in a peculiar and impenetrable mystery and no man outride the sacred confines has been able to get at the whys and wherefores of it. It is not possible, though, for any one who knows Mr. Barnes to believe that he ordered, de liberately and in cold blood, any out rage on Mrs. Morris or on any other woman. It is much easier to believe that for a moment he lot his head, or that acting on orders from "higher up," force was used where it was repugnant to his personal inclinations. However, that may be, for half a dozen years or more Mr. Barnes has en joyed the reputation of being one of the kindliest and most obliging officials who hod any connection with the White House. He received his White House tutelage from George B. Cortelyou, and had much of Mr. Cortelyou's charming courtesy and engaging frankness. When Mr. Cortelyou left the White Houms, Mr. popularity, Mr. Loeb, who succeeded Barnes fell heir to much of the former's popularity, Mr. Loeb, who succeded Mr, Cortelyou ne secretary to the President, has not been pimular, especially with newspaper men, and visitors to the White House whenever it was possible, have preferred to transact tbeir business with Mr. Barnes, m .....
