'.What astonishes Paris business men
: A Is the fact that 10 or 12 years ago
: .? Geissler. was penniless. , They allege
?J that at least 10 years ago the German
L secret service began to finance, him
1 with a view to enabling him to' corner
t,, the best hotels in Paris. .
t Thejr further allege that It was on
the kaiser's own words that Geissler
: built the sumptuous Astoria, in read 1
X hesa for the kaiser's triumphal entry
into Paris as conqueror. 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. In Jail. '
, Hi hotels " were sequestered, and
i while verifying the books the govern-
5 ment auditors "discovered they had
k been tampered with. Geissler was
i thereupon arrested and transferred to
, a Tarls Jail. ' .
ju' . Incidents in his career are cited as
showing that he was in Close touch
with the inner circles In Berlin head
ed by the kaiser, which rules the des-
tlnies of the central empires. - Geissler
tWM jersonafcjgrata at the German em-
. . lmsv. and even attended official-re-
ceptlons. . All his hotels he staffed
, with - Germans, except ' the . kitchens,
and whenever complaints were made.

Clears at This Port -:-f
Edward Ehrman, of Mason, Ehr
. man & . Co., declared this morning
that : the policy of hla company al
ways has been to clear every ship
ment from abroad at this pqrt.
."There Is no reason why Portland
, Should hot have full . credit . for the
business she actually does," said Mr.
Ehrman. 'The fact is that every
pound of goods we receive ' Is sent
by our- express order, either- direct
by steamer s touching here or else

make It a matter of personal busi
ness to see - that no Item, however
small, be accredited elsewhere. -,'
,"We are back- of the ' campaign
heart and soul, - to bring this .port
back to its own." - , --
In spite of some discouarging ex
periences that ' have cost it actual
business prestige, the United Import
& Trading company, tor -years has
been requiring that all its silks,
fancy . cotton goods, ' hats. ' laces and
other oriental wares be brought here,
either ; direct ;from the "-far east or
In . bond from the actual . port of

: Want v "Stolen" Business ' Sack. ';.
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. L Hothchild, of Rothchild Bros
liquor dealers, said his company has
about abandoned importation because
of the near approach of prohibition
in Oregon. - He stated, however, that
the policy of the company has. been
always to have Its goods shipped
here either direct or in bond from the
port . of4 entry. It was found to b
cheaper.' and-1 eminently . more expe
ditious. The ? trade' nd commerce bureau
of the Chamber. of Commerce, is bard
at work on . the elimination of the
various factors , that s discriminate
against this port and the persuasion
of. merchants i who do not now make
use of the - local custom house to
change their policy . is part ., of the
program. ' : i -- -

Pavor Chinese Exclusion.
, The original Chinese exclusion bill
of 1882 must be given the power and
force It was supposed to nnsse.n' nt th
i time of passage, declared . G. 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.'-': . . " ' :
