"J'SKATINQ It Is reported from San Francisco that within a short time the remaining lands of the Oregon dt California rail road grant in Oregon will be put on the market and1 that preparations are beina? made for beslnnlne- the sate. An announcement to thla effect is expected in the official year book of the, .liar rl man companies in Oregon, Washington and Idaho. .Which la now being compiled and which will be printed shortly after the Oral of the year. Legal representatives and agents or the-Southern Paclflo land department who have been for mojiths clearing up legal complications affecting small tracts and disposing of delinquent con tracts have finished their work. Twenty five assistants who were at work In every county in western Oregon undot direction of W. C Bristol have been dlamissed and their' chief Is said .to have made hla final report to head quarters In Ban-Francisco and Portland. W. W. Wick, for years in the employ of the land department and for some time a confidential man In Mr. Eberleln' department, devoted several weeks to work that kept him delving in the records of Multnomah county and he has completed his .labors and retired from the service of the department. Reports from all sources Indicate that the land are In shape for beginning the expected sale, A Ban Francisco report says: Harrlman Is preparing to sell a part of the Oregon California railroad land grant in uregon, amounting 10 aooui 4.000,000 acres. In charge of Charles W. Eberleln. a Harrlman protege from the Union Paclflo land department, who supplanted William H. Mills In railroad and land mattera In Oregon about two years ago, much to the delight of many railroad people who objected to the know-all manner of Mills. Eberleln. since he succeeded Mlllsj has straightened out many tangles In which the Oregon land grant became In volved through the policy of his prede cessor, conditions are now sucn, it is said, that Eberleln la prepared to make sales from the grant, beginning esrly In the new year. . It Is stated he la now Id a position to meet the wishes of a large number of people Interested in the matter. Thla number involves min ing men. sawmill men. farmers and prospective settlers, all of whom be lieve that the refusal to open the grant for the laat two years has greatly re tarded' development of the state. Sev eral yeara ago some of tho land was sold at prices ranging from $6 to $26. Then the remainder of the grant waa withdrawn. At what prlcea the land will now be offered la a matter that Oregon people are greatly Intereated in finding out." A former employe or the lana depart ment said yesterday: "I know of no reason why the lands should be longer withheld from' sale. I do not believe Mr. Eberleln himself knows the reason for delay. ' The matters that formerly affected the final disposition of the lands have been straightened out and there la no apparent reason for further seques vyatHin." ' " ..

"When I was In Chicago I saw a man who looked a great deal like him In fact, so much like him that I thought he was Puter. When I arrived ' In Portland this morning .snd read In the papers that the man wanted In connection with the land frauds had been seen In Cali fornia I concluded that' I must have been mistaken in -my man.

She still lives there, though she la on a visit to Pittsburg." This significant re mark was made this morning iy - one close to the Corey family, one who haa conferred with Mrs. Corey several times since she came to Pittsburg from' the west; and the remark may be considered as orricrei. Mrs. William Ellis Corey will refuse ner husband a Christmas gift of 11.- 000,000 rather than consent. to be looked upon as a discarded wife, 'she la hold ing off her suit for absolute. divorce against the head of the steel trust only on condition that there shall be a full reconciliation that she shall be re established In his home and In the eyes of the world as the wife 'of his past, present and future.' It la a fact that not even Mrs. Corey knows whether her husband will be here for Chrlatmas. That she expects him Is believed. The two truck loads of Christmas gifts that arrived for Mrs. Corey at her father-ln-Iaw's house In Braddock - last night from her husband gave the hope that Corey would be her, but he has sent no word. Objects to Oae restore. A relative of Corey sent him long telegram today asking him If he would come for the Chrlstmaa dinner, . Mrs. Corey objects to one feature of the proffer made by her husband. He has not aaid that he will again make hla borne with his wife. Unless he does Mrs. Corey will decline the offer of an amicable arrangement, A member of the Corey family expressed the opin ion this morning that a reconciliation would not be affected. He aald: "It la doubtful whether Mr. Corey will come to Pittsburg. Mrs. Corey came home merely to spend the holi day season. In the, event of the fall- Lure of a settlement she will have dl- vorc. .proceedings- instituted here." Bays I Corey Is alrratlo. One of Mr. Carnegie's partners, who Was at the dinner party given by the Ironmaster in New York, but who will not allow hla name to be mentioned, admitted today that the case was dis cussed at thetdlnntr after Corey had left, and ssld: "There Is list a man Interested in the Carnegie Bteel company who knows whether W. E. Cfleey la coming to Pitts burg or not He is an er ratio fellow." Mrs. Corey spent part of today with the family of A. A. Corey at No. SMS Hawkins avenue. She visited . her mother. Mrs. Frank Campbell, of No. 7S1S Ormonde street, but returned to the home of her father-in-law. Corey's neighbors attempted to get a glimpse of her today, but ahe kept well in the house. Mrs. Corey plans to spend some time with her sister, Mrs. Henry Mc- Crory, of Wllkinsburg. - The A. A, Corey borne at Braddock la tonight guarded by two watchmen each accompanied by u fierce bulldog. Any one who looks as though he or she might be searching fcr Information la given scant courtesy by, the bulldogs and the watchmen.. Papa Corey declares the bulldoge will stay until some people learn to attend to their own business. TRUE PREDICTION AS TO Streets Jammed With Shoppers as Merchants Had Expected v And They Bought. Never were the streets of Portland so thronged wllhshoppers on a Satur day night preceding Christmas as they were last night Carsi from the sub urbs were taxed to their full capacity during the afternoon and evening, and the early part of the night' found the west side of Fifth street between Mor rison and Alder, and the greater part of the same street "between Alder and Washington, packed with a dense maas of buyers. Washington street near Third, on the aouth aide, also ' was crowded to the curb, with shoppers lin ing the display .windows of the stores and people edging their way to and fri In order to get near the store entrances. -The efforts of some of the crowd to gain entrance to a store without hav ing to stand In line gave rise to a little innocent but costly amusement In the poolroom way among a lot of bystanders on Washington street If a man or woman was seen to be making a deter mined effort to reaob the door of a store, a wager waa made that he or she would not "score a touchdown?. In five minutes, . The bets were usually 26 cents," and the bettors held the stakes. ; The ..suburban car stations were crowded -during the night. Every car waa filled, and room In the Beats was found not only for the two who paid their fares, but also for all the toys that a small and growing group of- chil dren would clamor for.
