Ho stated that the delay in building- ; the' proposed Ellnsburg-Rltz- villa cutoff on the Northern ' Pacific, . which ;wa surveyed last . spring, was i directly due to a hostile foelhig ex '' pressed by the president of the nation, 'sot the president at Washington, to '' ward the railroads of America. ' ; t Judge George T. Reld of Tacoma, gen eral western counsel for the Northern i Pacific, emphasized the remarks made by Mt4 Elliott, saying in part: 1 f 'It is the since ro desire of the North ern Pacific to render' good-service, and (abetter servloe would be rendered by ,the road If lesa limitations were put ? 1 upon us by the- people. .

"Hlgglns. assistant superintendent, bf the Portland Gas & Coke company, and two companions, a man and a. woman, were thrown out and badly bruised. f.;;j Hlgglns,, when asked this morning con cernlng the accident,? said he , didn't know he had ever been in an accident or. that ,there had been an accident. It was noticeable, however, that In walking he had decided limp. Other than that statement Hlgglna refused to say any thing, either r concerning the -cause of the accident or of the Identity of his companions. " - - According to Superintendent Mao Donald of the gas company, Hlgglns uses the car In the mains and service department Their business hours are, from av nv till 6:80, however,-and no 'explanation of Hlgglns having had the car out after hours was given. ; The accident happened at. 3:30 Sunday morning. Hlgglns was driving. Ac cordlng to the only witness of the af fair, John Wolff, a stationary engl neer who was at work nearby, the car came down Washington . street at a speed which he estimated to be at least 40 miles an hour. At Ella street a tax icab turned into Washington-street and Hlgglns In attempting to avoid this car skidded Into a pole. The car. a 11200 two-passenger affair, was 1 badly smashed. - The frame was broken and the wheels . turned so . that but little remains but the engine. . ' ..; VThlte Salmon. Wants Water.

Francis Richter covered himself with glory in his piano recital at the Hellig yesterday , afternoon. His interpreta tion cf the, big classics wa's so clear and definite that it is douotful if after the first few numbers mairy in the audience gave any thought to the fact that this young performer at the instrument was blind totally blind'. 1 His , remarkable performance com pells one to believe that he sees Infin itely, more than can be distinguished by the great majority of artists having the full use of their eyesight for his read ing and technique, must be accepted as phenomenal. . Yesterday afternoon was stormy the rain fell In sheets Just as it was time to start for the Hellig", yet the audience that gavp; the performer an ovation, as he stepped upon the:, stage, numbered nearly B00. It should have been three times that large, for the theatre holds that many, but BOO was hot bad, consld: erlng the feather1 and the fact that the seats were not auctioned off at $5 or 310 atflece The affair netted about 3400, a neat Htt sum. but about 306 short of what Richter rieeds to start on a tour of the country.. It is hoped the balance lWIU be obtained so that ar rangements may beicompleted as origi nally Intended, which Include a trip to Europe next spring to study under Paderewskl. this world famous artist having . consented to accept the Port land boy as a pupil, an honor that falls to few, since Paderewskl does not teach or coach for money. ' , Getting back to the program, it may be referred to as perhaps a little too classical, and consequently somewhat tiring,' excepting to piano students , or classic enthusiasts. But be that as it may, certainly young Richter wielded hypnotic Influence over r his audience, which was decidedly musical, ' among- them being, most of the recognised ar tlsts of the city, ; .. s. - it. would be difficult to say which was the star nfirnber, the program in cluding the "Fantasia and Fugue in O Minor," - by Bach-Liszt; Beethoven's "Waldstein Sonata, Opus 63"; Schu mann's t "Etude Symphonic": " Chopin' "Nocturne, Opus 15," two mazurkas and "Soherso In B Minor"; , Sajnt-Saens Rlchter's "Fantasle on 'Samson et De Ilia' "; yMoskowskl's ? ,4Nacbstueck" s and "Jongleuee," . and. ..Lls-t's rMageppa,' The Schumann number, especially, was brilliantly rendered. - - . ; , - a To illustrate the performer's wonder ful ability to memorise and lmerovise. Paul Kreider. a pianist, was invited to play a theme not familiar to Mr. .Rich ter. Hardly had .Mr. Kreider left the piano before Mr. Richter- reproduced the theme as correctly as bad he played from the score, and then drifted Into a tumult pf variations that only one thus exceptionally talented could dream ; of. It proved a fitting climax to a wonder ful performance and Brought a storm or applause. - -...; ' ; .. HETTY. GREEN AT 75 V ACTIVE IN BUSINESS New- Tork, Nov. , 11. .Mrs. Hetty H. R. Green, American's most prominent woman financier, reached her seventy fifth anniversary today and also rounded ' out her forty-fifth wear as a business woman, during which she has accumulated a fortune variously" esti mated at from 360,000 J50O to 3100,000, 000. a. The wealthiest . woman in America started with. a forune of 39,000,000, left her by her father. This fortune she has increased many; fold ? by shrewd business deals and far-sighted invest ments. Her wealth to widely diversi fied. She has real estate holdings in nearly every section of the country and her mortgages embrace some of the safest properties In . a chain of cities extending from coast to coast Railroads, steamooais. mines, telephones and tele' graphs also contribute to her Income. Some, time ago the report was circu' lated that Mrs. Green Intended to retire from the active management of .her af fairs and the arrival of her son, EX H. R. Green, in New York tended to con firm the report .But the son has re turned to Texas and Mrs.' Green, from all appearances, is as active as ever, so that the rumors of her prospectfve re tirement probably had no better founda tion than similar reports which have been circulated periodically ever since the famous financier reached her six tieth year. v 1 ' TO DISCUSS TRAFFIC PROBLEMS AT BANQUET New YorlA Nov, 31 Prominent ship' pers, who are understood to be opposed to . any increase In freight tates and representatives of the railroads, who declare that an advance in rates Is an absolute . necessity, are to gather ahput the banquet board at the Waldorf-Astoria tomorrow night and engage in an informal discussion with' a view to bringing' about a better understanding in regard to tba problem., Tha occasion will be the annual dinner Of the Rail way Business association, an organiza tion formed two years ago by manufac turers and dealers in Jallway supplied.
