He took up the cudgel yesterday in defense of the work of that bodv when Councilman Beldlng at tacked the new charter before the coun cil. Mr. Baker, as well as a majority of the council leaders, took the posi tion that the question of the merits of the amended charter should be left with the. people, who will settle the matter by their votes. ravored by Fourteen. The statement was made by some of the eoiincllmen who opposed the new charter, yesterday, that It was approved by only a bare majority of the commis sion. This statement was seemingly without foundation, as 14 members of ; the commission signed the majority re port and expressed themselves as heart ily In favor of the charter as revised. : in this report, published some days ago In full In The Journal, attention was railed to, the essential features of the proposed charter, and, any voter who Is interested -may obtain a copy of the charter as It Is to be submitted at a special election In April, by calling at ,. thn auditor's office In the city hall.

Kelly has sent word out from his home that he Is In traininar and Portland fans are confidently expecting to see him win back some of the laurels which his game leg kept him from keeping. Plans for the erection of an immense grain warehouse and elevator on the waterfront have matured, and Fred Mul ler, secretary of the board of trade, yes terday announced that the building would be complete by next July, or In time to house the incoming crop. Mr. Muller represents In Portland the east ern capitalists who will put up tha funds for the building of the new ele vator. The location of the new warehouse has not yet been definitely decided on, but an option has been secured on a good piece or property. The site will not De made public for some time. More than J 100,000 has already been secured from eastern capitalists, and the remaining $150,000 nece'ssary will be made up within a short time. It is ex pected. Minneapolis, Chicago, Kansas City and New Orleans capital will be Invested. Local people may be asked to take blocks of the stock, but such ac tion is improbable. For four months Mr. Muller has been quietly working. In the hope that such an elevator and warehouse could be erected in Portland, and the smaller shipments of both bulk and sacked grain housed cheaply. Once the scheme was well under wav he had no trouble se curing assurances that there would be plenty of monev forthcoming. The new elevator will have a capacity of 600.000 bushels of wheat, and will have the advantage over many other local warehouses in that it will be fully equipped with all the modern devices for handling and sorting grain.

This special rose from the Burbank experimental farms, which Mr. Bur bank has already consented to be called the "Rose of Oregon," was received by the Rose Festival association yester day, and from now until "Rose Plant ing Day." Washington's birthday, it will be in the custody of the Portland Rose society, which organization will have charge of the ceremonies in connection with Us dedication. The following- letter was received Yes terday from Mr. Burnank anent the part that he has shown his willingness to play In the rose planting event, since he Is not able to be present himself.

Mr. Bur bank takes great pleasure In sending the rose plant he has promised for your 'Rose Planting Day.' We trust it will reach you In irood rendition. Very sincerely. LUTHER BURBANK."

Sev eral Dinas or music have been engaged to take part in the exercises which are to take place at the Forestry building at 2 o'clock, the afternoon of February In case the weather is not favorable, a general call will be issued by the Rose Festival, asking the residents of Portland to celebrate the day appropri ately at their own homos to plant roses In their yards and to make it an occasion of private ceremony. Aside from the interest which at taches in the plans of the general com mittee, the most entertaining feature of the celebration of Washington's birth day will be the part which the Penin sula Rose association will play.

Translations of dispatches from St. Petersburg received here by the American political defense league contain the following: "The czar's American ambassador, Baron Rosen, is in disfavor and will probably be recalled shortly. His in ability to Influence the decision of Sec retary Root to deny asylum to the refugees from the .rebellious Russian provinces has disuleaned the court Other unfavorable American rulings and the dubiousness of the outcome of the foren case nave discredited tne Amen can ambassador's career. "He will perhaps be succeeded bv Am bassador Malovskl, who has creditably filled the difficult mission of ambassa dor to Japan. Malevski will be free from any promises by Baron Rosen to the United States. "The baron's mission to America ended after the flotation of the i;50, 000.000 bond issue. If the Imperial gov, ernment can bring tranquility in Its southern and eastern provinces before the end of 1909. this fund will make possible anotner war with Japan. "The motives that inspire the an polntment of Malevski to the American post are the transference of his recog nized ability to a country whose friend ship may be , cemented by judicious manifestation of sympathy with the United States in its disputes with Japan. "The change of administration and Inauguration of President Taft are re garded as particularly auspicious events In view of the Impending aggressive policy of Russia in the orient."
