ation park at J o'clock today In what
glvea promise of being a memorable
battle for the light weight boxing oham
plonahlp of the world, which, the Bal

Brltt can win It may upset alt the tra

Nelson recently.
If Brltt la fairly fighting for nla
life, Oana la doing the same. He wants
to retire to his hotel business at Balti

Francis J. Heney, Oregon land fraud
proaecutor, San Francisco graft exter

big-stick '.policy, was In Portland .this
momtigkniJ'!'aittirtl$ttMV at the
Portland hotel, left on the ;S0 train for
Seattle, accompanied by United State
Attorney William C. Bristol. After
conference on Oregon land fraud eases
the prosecutors will return to Portland
tomorrow. .'t
Hener's visit this morning was on
the order or the man who wajxea right
in. turned around and walked out ar&ln.
He stayed but 150 minutes, in which
brief flight of time the smile that haa
made him famous worked overtime. He
waa to have been in Portland last nlffht
at 11:80 o'clock, but because ot a wreck
on the Southern Pacino railroad did not
get in nntu s o ciocx mis morning.

Mr. Henev evidently did ' not want

seamed natural to the noted crosecu-

change xrom tne great strain ne naa
been laboring under since the graft
cases started In the Bay City and smiled
Indulgently and radiantly at friend he
met this morning.
Heney has changed but little since
he was last In Portland. 'Ha has the
same ruddy complexion and looks as
hard and fit for another round with the
land fraud artists as he did when they
were first taken up. Heney told
friends he met that his health had been
excellent and that he is feeling fine at
present He is stouter than he was last
year, but his Portland friends will im
mediately recognise in him the same
Heney of old.
Will Decide Ind Oases.
Just how long the prosecutor will re
main in Portland when he returns to
morrow Is unknown. His conference
with Mr. Bristol is expected to decide
Important Questions as to the further
prosecution ot the land-fraud cases.
Heney is considering which, cases he
will turn over to Bristol. Although
