Rome Intimation of the roiile to be
tuken 1V the pnrty of railroad officials
who will le.ve tonight for Central and

A. L. Mo'ler. of the (). H. N., this
morning. He said:
"We will leave tonight, going to
Bigg, where we will take the Colum
IiIh Houthern nnd proceed as far as
Shaniko, the present southern terminus
or Hint line., from mis point ii is
not as yet definitely decided what route
will be taken, though the ultimate des
tination Is Bend.
"As to our purponos In going, I am
not at full liberty to speak. One ob
ject . la to look over the country thor
oughly and be In a position to apeak
with a knowledge gained first hand.
The trip from Shaniko will be by stage,
and we estimate from the time we loave
tonight until we return will be about
ten days. I have never visited that sec
tion of Oregon and am anxious to do
so. As to what will be dona I can
not say until I return. Reports have
been published as to what I will do.
They are premature and incorrect."
President Mohler would say no more.
Included Inthe party will b E. E.
Iytle. of the Columbia Southern; T., R.
Wilcox, a corps pf engineers and seeral
guides familiar with the lay of the coun
try around the Des Chutes river. '
It Is believed, that the prime object
of the trip Is to make Investigation
of the feasibility of tapping that sec
tion with a new line of road. In this
territory the O. R. A N. and the Colum
bia Southern are to a certain extent
competitors, though each is' dependent
more or less upon, the other. President
Lytle has been known to have been
urging for some time an extension of
the line from Shaniko south, believing
that the country has sufficient popula
tion and natural wealth to support a
new line.
As to whether he be) loves it a good
investment at this time. President Mo!-
ler would not say. The Investigation
about to be made will clear th; matter
In the minds of all. It la believed that
construction would not be very expen
sive, owing to the many excellent wagon
roads that traverse that country In all
directions.
.Among the places east of the Des
Chute river which .will probably be
visited are Prlnevllle. Pilot Butte .and
Lava. Accurate estimates will be made
and some interesting developments are
expected when the party returns.

"I am very glad to see that the Mon

state the law-makers will give an addi

When I was there as commissioner for

"From a historical standpoint, that

In that state, Captains' Lewis and Clark
spent several months, having had their
camp near the present town site of

'Hundreds of Montana people are

(Journal' Special Service.)
LOS ANOELES, Cel., May 7. The
case of Louis Rlchter pf Minnesota was
taken up by the Presbyterian Qeneral
Assembly this morning and the decision
of the Minnesota Synod was sustained.
Rlchter was expelled from the Presby
terlan Church on account of hie Ideas
on temperance. It is claimed that he
advocated a mild use of Intoxicants, and
the Presbytery brought -him to trial
The result was his expulsion from the
church. Rlchter then appealed to the
Assembly, and sensational charges' were
expected. The charges were under con
slderatfon for two days, but the plain
tiff did hot appear to answer and the
commission, decided It could not Inter
fere with the finding of the Synod,' since
Rlchter was not present Htpush his
claim. Tt Is believed he feared the loss
of his case, and therefore stayed away.
The decision Is Important, as It estab
lishes the standing of the Assembly on
the liquor question.
A man who Is receiving much atten
tion during the Assembly Is Marcus
Whitman, of Idaho, a lineal descendant
pf Rev. Dr. Marcus Whitman of Ore-,
gon. who made the- famous trip to Wash
ington and secured the co-operation of
Daniel Webster and saved the greut
Northwest to the United States. Rev.
J. A. Hsnna. of Los Angeles, has writ
ten the full Story, which has Just been
published. Mr. Hanna is a graduate, of
Washington and Jefferson of the class
of '49. and Is president of the local or
ganisation. It is suggested that Mr.
Whitman be asked to participate In the
Lewis and Clark Centennial
Effort to reduce representation at the
General Assembly was Undertaken this
morning, and a warm dlsousslson was
only checked off by the Moderator. Cer
tain commissioners desire the expeases
of the meetings reduced, and say the
Assembly has grown unwieldy and
wants fewer commissioners. Others
think this will weaken the Assembly,
and are determined the reduction meas
ure shall not carry. The resolution
was presented this morning and finally
laid on the table. Th Assembly has
oost 17$. 000 this year. Independent of
what Los Angeles, gave.

TORNADO STRIKES :
TOWN OF BOTTNA, I A.
Wires Are Dovyn and' Des
Moines River Has Risen. Six
Feet Since Yesterday,
The old Brooklyn school, long over
crowded and at present unsanitary, ac
cording to the statement of the superin
tendent, will be replaced with a new.
ightly and commodious structure.
A preliminary consideration of this
question was had Monday night at the
meeting of the school board, but definite
action was left to a' special committee.
The committee had an option of either
purchasing Ave lots near the present
school or of building elsewhere. The
various owners of the lots at first placed
hat the board thought were "hold-up
prices on their lots, hut yesterday de-
tded to accept a price that the corn-
It tee felt willing to pay. The Ave lots
111 cost $2,450. and the decline In their
price can be readily perceived when It
stated that for one lot and a nair
1,250 was ssked at the board meeting
Monday.
Supt. Rlgler stated this morning that
the Brooklyn school should be replaced
by a new one, but that he did not re
gard It as necessary that the new school
be placed on the present site.
"The old building will have to be
entirely removed," said Mr. Rlgler. "and
no part of it can be used :n the new
structure. So I do not see that it Is
necessary for us to purchase lots near
the present site. If we can get them at
a reasonable figure that site would
serve, but If we cannot then there Is
no necessity for building there."
Tho reason the board secured several
lots to build on. as statedjby the super
intendent, was because they desired that
the pupils have some eortnofva play
ground which was theirs, and for this
a block would be none too great a; space.
Just when the new school will be built
Is not certain, but the bonrd desires to
erect It as soon o the levy will furnish
funds. That It will not be erected this
year is certain, but perhaps a start can
be made next year that will give tem
porary relief.
