This means that America must take care of her own indebtedness besides being asked to help care for the reconstruction of Europe. American railroads are bound to suffer In this process, though regard less of the war there would have been little railroad activity anyway." Judge Lovett blames adverse legisla. tion, regulation, commissions, both state and interstate, demands of labor, ment of income aceomnnnipri bv th I general Increase in operating expenses, for the condition that now makes rail road securities unattractive to inves tors. Judge Lovett declared that Ameri can money will find safer investment abroad because there will be fewer restraints end regulations. "I am not a pessimist," he said, "but here in America we are bound to see general retrenchments and re adjustment of our activities on a more sane basis." The railroad financier was enthu siastic in his comment on the per sonnel of the federal reserve board. In which he has been suspected of having some advisory selecting hand. "Warburg Is an international' finan cier," he said. "In general, the board Is made up of competent, reliable men whose Influence should tend to stableixe financial conditions The criticism I would make of the board is that the secretary of the treasury and the comptroller of the currency are both members. Both these offi cials are busy men, looking after the money of the country and the banks, respectively, and yet they have the same vote as do the other members who devote their entire time to the board's work. This is In no sense a . criticism of these officials per sonally, for both are able, but of the plan." Judge Lovett held out .no promise of further extension of the O.-W. It. & N. In this territory. Accompanied by J. D. Farrell, president of this line, he inspected the new terminals at Spokane yesterday and probably later will go over the Ayer lime. He said today he would be In Portland nearly a week and would visit Puget Sound and possibly San , Francisco during his sojourn on the coast. Judge Lovett Inquired closely con cernlng the lumber situation In the northwest and spoke enthusiastically of crop prospects all over the coun try. No Great Damage By Forest Fires Stat Torsster Elliott Denies Stories to Effect That Esvt Bsea Ksavy so rar Tals Season. Salem, Or., Aur. 19. State Forester Elliott today emphatically denied stories of heavy losses by forest fires which have been published In recent weeks. "There has been no real damage to speak of so far this season," be said. "There have been many fires, but they have been confined to slashings and underbrush and have caused no real loss. Green timber has Deen scarcely touched by fire this year and the total loss amounts to a trifling sum. "Forest fire fighters have been busy keeping the blazes back from green timber, but there has been a remark able absence of losses. Even in Linn county there does not appear to have been any considerable loss of any kind as a result of the fires." Two Are Accused Of White Slavery Nick Campagna and 'John Deb&lll, Mot. Ing Picture Ken Will Have Hearing STazt Friday. Nick Campagna, aged 22, and John Deballi, proprietors of a moving picture show at First and Columbia streets, were taken In custody yesterday after noon by the United States marshal's office on charges of violation of the Mann white slavery act.

Aug. 19. Word that the German cruiser Leipslc had headed south-southwest on a course that would take her to Hawaii if followed, was brought here today by the Matson liner Wllhelmina. Naval officers here. however, think the Leipslc will be heard from next off the Central and South American, coasts, going from country to country as fuel gives out. for .coal and supplies sufficient to make a "horns port." In the mean time the cruiser was expected to prey oa the enemy's commerce and hunt for colliers. The United Mine Workers has ap pealed for funds In aid of the striking miners and their families in Colorado. INVESTIGATION BY' AGENTS No new developments locally In the government's Investigation of the in crease in food prices occurred today. Special agents are interviewing mer chants in various lines, and getting their views on the subject. There has been no mention as yet of a special federal grand Jury being called. . Grain Shipments Start Jor Europe New York, Aug. 18. Several heavy shipments of grain have been -started to European ports since Monday y exporters here. It was expected this week's shipments would exceed those of last week by more than a million bushels. - ' By Karl H. von Wiegand. The Hague, Aug. 19. That Germany was already negotiating for the return of Kiao Chao to China was the infor mation furnished today by a leading German diplomat here to the United States. The concession, he stated, probably would be surrendered voluntarily as a checkmate to Japan. German officials expressed the live liest indignation at the Japanese ulti matum, for which they voiced their conviction that the British were re sponsible. The exact hour of the delivery of the Japanese ultimatum at the German for eign office was not known. It was said at the embassy here that Japan would assume a waiting policy until Sunday, the time limit imposed by the mikado. It was also announced here that the United States had agreed to take charge of the Japanese embassy in Ber lin In the event of hostilities between Japan and Germany. Looks for Tourist Traffic in Oregon Prominent Klamath Tails Resident Says the Stats Will' profit From Good Beads. Judge George T. Baldwin of Klamath Falls, who Is in Portland today, said that the people of his southern Ore gon district expect to be among the chief beneficiaries from the construc tion of the Columbia Highway between Portland and The Dalles. It means, he explained, that a vast amount of tourist travel will be divert ed through central Oregon south and over the uniformly good roads east of the Cascade mountains. In prepara tion to attract tourists Klamath Falls ward a fine road is being made be tween Klamath Falls and Ager. Italy's Aid Again Sought. Rome, Aug. 19. lCmissaries of the German kaiser were on their way to Rome today, it was learned from Ger man sources, to urge that Germany certainly had not acted aggressively against Japan, and that the Japanese ultimatum to Germany constituted an attack on the latter. On this ground, It was said, the vis itors intended again to insist that under the terms of the triple alliance Italy was bound to help her Teutonic allies. There was high authority for the statement that all this argument would be wasted, the Rome govern ment being determined to remain neu tral, unless it was itself attacked by Germany, Austria-Hungary or both, in which case it would fight back. The Corriere d'ltalia published a Trieste dispatch saying the Austrlans had been compelled to abandon their attack on Vladimir, a Russian town near the Austrian frontier, which they had attempted to capture. FOREST FIRES SUBDUED The forest fire situation, from local sources at least, was more reassuring today than it has been in weeks. No new fires were reported either to the Oregon Forest Fire association or the United States forest service, and the ones already known of are said to be well under control. The situation may change at any minute, however these offices state, and the utmost care on the part of campers, hunters and set tlers is urged. TOY WHISTLE REMOVED Japan's Ultimatum Delivered. Copenhagen, Aug. 19.
