The staff of ! the hotel was exclusively German with the exception of the chefs. Believed Secret Agent. V- These allegations constitute a charge that Geissler acted as a secret agent on behalf of Germany before and dur Ine the i war. . in fairness to him, therefore, it - must be added that no ' Publicity has been given to him. He is not, indeed, officially charged ? with 'espionage., -.At the outbreak of ? Athe war he was arrested on suspicion : of having erected a wireless apparatus on the roof of the Astoria, which occu- . pies a commanding position at the top ,. of the Avenue Des Champs-Ely sees J with ithe object of intercepting offl- lal messages sent to and from the 4 Eiffel . tower, ' but the charge failed j and he was lodged in a segregation camp as an enemy alien. - . - Books XAnd Xim.

Albert Von der Werth. manager of this company, v went decidedly on rec ord today in favor t of a common movement of "merchants to wrest from i competing ports the - business "stolen" j from , Portland : because of the Indifference of the local interests on the one hand and the aggressive ness of the rival cities on the other. The condition is a gradual ; growth, he said, and now Portland has to wit ness the spectacle of other ports In cluding in their statistics the figures that belong here. a. .'.-r;.- "We have; always stipulated that our goods be cleared here, where we can personally ee that it Is done properly." ... said ! Mr. Von der Werth. "We have found that It costs us les In brokerage,- In delay, in getting our, goods out to our customers, Mistakes EasCy Corrected. ; "If . any ' misunderstandings arise, we can step over to. the custom house and straighten out in 15 min utes . what would require several days to adjust if ' we . had . to . correspond with the : custorosr officials at other ports.' .,. .: ' :(.-'. , , ' "You -may be! sure the rival ports are fighting to .fret this business but when ; an actual consignment - comes to them, though billed for Portland, they will . favor their own merchants by getting - their goods cleared first. That gives our competitors an earlier start , in ' distribution of -goods from the same steamer that, brought ours. s "If the . port officials here were given , more Authority and more - dis cretionary -'i powers, our. situation would be pre-eminent among the Pa cific Importing centers. We have had one disagreeable-experience along this line . that has : Just been .settled the listing of a certain article of cotton goods as embroidery . when It is not embroidery. ; , . - a Difference Consumed Profits. ."The plain goods are taxed 30 per cent duty, , the embroidery, , 60 . per cent. This difference more than ate up our profit i and we . found compet ing firms .- in i San Francisco : under selling us. The Can Francisco port authorities did not regard these goods as - embroidery . and- accordingly we lest most of our trade in this line. If the- Portland custom .house were allowed - to adjust these differences without having- to report them to Washington, we would have saved a large amount. I - understand the San Francisco customs officials are not required so to report. "But In spite of that, we believe this port has premier advantages for the Portland Jobber and all should get behind the ' movement to restore Its r -Olng." . . . - . Cheaper and Sore Bxpeditions. J.

W. nooper or Massachusetts In his report to the "National Laundrymen's conven tion. - "Re-registration and punishment for future offenders,' he said,"ls the only effective way by which the. Chinese exclusion' act can be made' of value to this nation, he added. The -laundrymen's committee, 4f which Mr. Hooper is chairman. 'had a bill drafted, c and ; after submission four . hearings -were had before th house- immigration committee. Repre sentatives of the association In every state used their- influence to secure favorable bearing for the-measure. The Portland Laundrymen's - club, was j spoken of by Mr. Hooper as having i been especially helpful. - , Bill Hot Yet Passed. . "Our bill was not passed because of the- unnatural conditions In congress created' by the war, and the lengthy political wrangle over the ship pur chase and . Immigration bills. Our bill was not reported from the com mittee for two : reasons, although- be fore these reasons were made known It had heconui certain that tk.r. a ; fto chance for passage. : namely, the opposiuon or tne aepartment of state, which of course we must always ex pect, and the objection of Congress man : Baker f of Calif orniav to allowing precedence "of our bill over a similar bill' of his own covering all Asiatics." i The committee recommended the ap pointment of a special Chinese exclu sion, committee for each .state and the creation of a. fund to carry on the campaign for the passage of the bllL i Want X.ess Oriental' Competition. - The motive of. the laundrymen in urging .more enforcible laws for-Chinese exclusion is to - lessen - oriental competition in laundrw work. Some 140,000.000 a year Js paid the Chinese for laundry ' said Mr. Hooper, and a large ' amount of this money is sent out of the country or is hoarded by Chinese who expect to return to China to live when they : have made , what they consider a fortune here. - ' - Congressman C. N. McArthur heard the discussion yesterday; and promised to support in congress, an effort to secure more rigid enforcement of ori ental immigration laws already on the statute books.'-': . .
