The enthuslastlo support of one of the most Influential members of the upper house, of Congress, the Hon, Champ Clark of Missouri, last evening, was pledged heartily, over the banquet board at the Arlington Club. H. W. Scott, who had been elected during the day as president of the Lewis snd Clark Centennial corporation, to succeed the late H. W. Corbett, was the host, and his guests were: Hon. Champ Clark of Bowling Oreen, Mo.; Gov. George E. Chamberlain, Mayor George H. Wil liams, ex-Congressman Malcolm A. Moody, Jefferson Myers, president of the Lewis and Clark State Commission; W.- D. Fenton, J. C. Flanders, Dr. Dave RafTerty, H. W. Ooode, elected yester day as director-general of the- Exposi tlon; W. E. Thomas and Leo Frlede. "Accept Our Fledges of Support." The affair was marked by warmth of cordiality on the part of Oregon to ward the distinguished Congressman and lecturer from Missouri, and on his part by the most earnest pledges of support when the matter or an appro priation comes to sn issue. Inasmuch as Congressman Clark Is known ss an outspoken man, who does not hesitate to oppose what he does not honestly in dorse, snd who once enlisted Is so knowledged to be one of the most val usble advocates who ever stood In the halls of Congress, his promises given at the dinner are of special signifi cance. In fact, the central ' thought of the prandial affair was the toast of Mr. Clsrk, who spoke bf the proposed Fair and gave assurance upon assurance that nothing would be withheld that he could assist In securing. His response to the call for an after-dinner talk elic ited from him a characteristic address. In which humor combined with Intel lect delighted the banqueters. Some Other Toasts. Gov. Chamberlain gave the welcome to the guest, on behalf of the State of Oregon, Mayor Williams for the City of Portland, Mr. Scott rehearsed interest ing historical facts.

PASSENGER AGENTS MAY MEET HERE IN 'Q4 The Association of Travelers Will Work for Conven tion in Portland, The Pacific Coast Association of Traffic Agents are fighting to have the American Association of Traveling Pas senger' Agents meet in Portland in 1904. Jay Andrews, president of , the Coast Traffic Association, stated that if this meeting were held in Portland it would greatly benefit , the Lewis snd Clark Fair. All the delegates from the Coast who go to the meeting at New Orleans will work to bring the next convention to Portland. Seventy-five passenger men on- the Coast are considering the posl blllty of attending the New Orleans con vention and if all these men will use their Influence in bringing the conven tion here next year Portland will stand a very good show. The Mexican Central and Santa, Fe Railroad agents are fighting to have the convention meet In the City of Mexloo, but as the agents desire to meet In places of different climate and scenery each year, also the fact that they would have to return the same way, weakens the agitation In favor of the City of Mexico. Mr. Andrews is In hopes that the Coast members will go in a body, by way of Los Angeles. There is a possibility. thong,- that the Northern Tnembers will make the trip by way of Chicago, Join ing the Eastern agents at that point. Members of the association are anxious that the roads centering in Portland shall take the Initiative and invite the National association to come here. A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent of the Northern Pacific; A. L. Craig, general passenger agent of the O.'R. & Nn and W. B. Coman, general passenger agent of the Southern Pacific, will likely be appointed to prepare an invitation to the American association. W, J, TULLY RETURNS W. J. Tully, who represents Eastern financial concerns In Portland, has Just returned from a six-weeks' trip to New York. In speaking of the present out look of business In the East, Mr. Tully said: "During my stay In the East and par ticularly In New York City, I had ample opportunity to investigate the financial condition of the country. There Is no likelihood of a financial panic for years to come. There may be a few flurries in the stock markets, but general bus! ness Is in first-class condition and the banks have plenty of money at easy rates. I feel perfectly safe In saying that prosperity will continue to smile for a long time."
