panic Now in Portland Shipment
Will Reach 1,000,000 Peer Per
Year.
Arrangements whereby the well
known lumber interests of the Sohsts
of Hamburg are to be represented in
Portland and regular shipments of
Oregon dressed lumber to Germany
from now on were completed yes
terday, says the Oregon Sunday Jour
nal. O. W. Gates & Co., are to be the
gents in Portland of the Sohst fam
ily, the business of which has been
banded down several generations.
The Sohsts first engaged In the lum
ber business In Germany in 1833.
Walter H. Sohst of Hamburg, who
b&s been selecting spars for the pri
rate yacht of the emperor now In
course of construction, is at the Hotel
Portland.
Mr. Sohst has been in Portland sev
eral days and during his stay here he
completed all the arrangements for
the lumber interests of Germany
which he represents to have agents
In Portland to attend to the com
pany's business. About 1.000,000
feet of tUte finest dressed lumber that
Oregon produces will be shipped an
nually to the Sohsts in Hamburg. The
lumber is to be used in ship build
ing
Oregon Lumber in Yacht.
The yacht of the Kaiser II Is to be
one of the finest m the world. It
will have 12 spars, each of which la
to be 120 feet in length. Contracts
for this part of the kaiser's new ves
sel have already been let by Mr.
, Sohst. In all, 20 of the finest spars
that ever crossed the Atlantic will be
sent The extra number above those
actually required for the yacht have
been arranged for by Mr. Sohst so
that there would be additional ones
on hand should it be found necessary
to have a call for them.
"It is quality that we want, not
quantity," Mr. Sohst said last even
ing at the Portland, "and on this ac
count I came to Oregon for lumber.
"The dressed lumber that we are
to ship from Portland is to be first
class in every particular. We use it
for deck and other shipbuilding pur
poses. For many years we have been
getting lumber for our business In the
south but the kind that we must have
s about all cleared out. On this ac
count we decided some time ago to
make arrangements In Portland to
have our interests represented by reg
ular agents.
"We shall not use lumber in great
amounts at first, but the timber that
we shall use Is to be nothing but the
finest. We consider the lumber of
Oregon as good as any in the world.
"Incidentally, I may say that I like
Portland better than any other city
In the country. The fact that from
now on lumber Is to be sent direct to
Germany from Portland, which
means practically that a new field is
being opened up for the industry
which has mad Oregon famous
throughout the world, is a good ad
vertiscment for this part of the coun
try."
Mr. Sohst also thinks favorably of
Vancouver, B. C. He leaves Portland
this evening.
The lumber shipments for the
Sohsts throusrh G. W. Gates & Co. of
Portland will begin In the near future
and will continue from time to time,
Increasing as the German shipbuild
ers see fit to order more.
It is quite probable that much of
the first shipment tf Oregon lumber
thrtt Is to be sent to Hamburg will be
used in the construction of the em
peror's private yacht

Cheyenne, Sept. 3. Later descrip
tions and telfgrams received at the
Office of the I'nlted States marshal In
this city from the authorities In Tel
lowstone park Indicate that the nervy
fcandlt who held up a dozen or mors
stages filled with tourists traveling
through the park, Is none other than
William Blnkley, who a couple of
winter, ago gave great trouble to
(he state game warden and forest
rangers by persisting In daring
hunting.
Blnkley was arrested and convict
ed of the Illegal killing of game In
Idaho, and was later arrested and
convicted before the federal authori
ties In the park for the illegal kill
ing of game there, and was confined
In the guard house, from which he
escaped nearly a year ago.
Blnkley was very active In killing
elk for their teeth and with a com
panion named Purdy operated back
and forth across the Wyoming-Idaho
line, for a long time evading the offi
cers, although working mostly on foot
or snowshoes.
In spite of the vigilant search for
Blnkley in the park and the patrollng
of the tralls'leadtr.g out of It, he wa
never apprehended, and it Is now
pointed out that probably no man has
a better knowledge of the trails and
routes and hiding places In the big
wonderland than the tusk hunter.
He had also ample opportunity to
become acquainted with the habits
and movements of tourists and ot
the location of the guards, patrols
and numbers of the troops, so that If
Me la the mysterious holdup he
doubtless had chosen well the time
and place for his robberies and had
his way of escape well laid out.
The man who held up the 16 stage
In the park was afoot, and for this
reason It was expected his capture
would be easy, but If the fugitive Is
Binkley the fact that he once es
caped from the park guard would
make It easier for him to make his
escape now,
A description of the outlaw receiv
ed today tallies to a large extent with
Blnkley, the outlaw being described
as a man of about 40, five feet eight
In height, stocklly built and weighing
about 150 pounds, with stubbly gray
whiskers and sandy hair turning
gray.
He wore a brown or cream shirt,
probably khaki, high black shoes, a
soft felt hat and carried a smokeless
rifle and an automatic pistol. He
spoke with a rasping German accent,
arid In this respect the description
differs from that of the Jackson Hole
hunter. The transportation compa
nles have Increased the reward to
$1000, which with $300 offered by
the government, makes $1300 In all.
a sore throat. He Is doing nicely,
but three of his brothers and sisters
died In three days from the effects of
the terrible scourge. They were:.
George, aged 12; Mabel, aged 8, and
a younger boy 5 years of age. There
are at present two others In the fam
ily down with the disease. Dr. W. T.
Schwabland called In a doctor from
Nlghthawk In consultation and they
both claim that it Is not diphtheria.

are similar, the results are different

NKW DISEASE
PUZZLES DOCTORS
Orovllle, Sept. 3. There seems to
be a new and very fatal disease among
young people going the rounds In On
ville. A few days ago Arthur Grath
wohl, a 17-yearold boy, died. The
doctor says that he was cured of the
disease, but he died suddenly, the
malady affecting the heart. His sis
ter, Mrs. Emma Grathwohl, who, dur
ing the time of her brother's sickness
was acting as assltant in the postof-
fice, was the next to be taken, but
she Is recovering rapidly. About the
same time that Arthur died, Donald
MacComber, the boy who was In the
recent gun accident, complained of
SENATOR MITCHELL'S FIXE
REMITTED BY GOVERNMENT
The fine of $1000 Imposed upon the
late Senator John Mitchell, In addi
tion to a brief term of Imprisonment,
July 25, 1905, upon his conviction of
having acted as private attorney for
Puter and others before the depart
ments while serving as United States
senator, need never be paid. United
States Circuit Judge Wolverton hand
ed down a decision to this effect this
morning.
Mitchell appealed his case to the
supreme court on a writ of error, and
while It was still pending before that
cort, he died. The appeal was, there
fore, dismissed without further hear
ing or proceedings had, upon motion
of his attorneys. Consequently the
government, through the district at
torney, presented a claim to the ad
ministrator of Mitchell's estate for the
amount of the fine, together with ac
crued Interest. The administrator
came before the court with a motion
to have the proceedings abated and
the fine cancelled.
In his decision rendered this morn
ing, jHdge Wolverton says:
"The sole question for considera
tion Is whether the cause abated by
the decease of the defendant, so that
the government Is not now entitled to
receive or recover the fine Imposd
from the deceased's estate.
"Imprisonment In Its general sense
Is the restraint of one's liberty and
Is personal to the -accused. It Is a
thing self-evident, therefore, that the
death of a person upon whom such a
judgment Is Imposed would put an end
to an Infliction or enforcement of the
punishment. A fine being a pecuniary
punishment Imposed upon the per
son, It would seem that -a like result
would follow.
"In passing Judgment, whether of
Imprisonment or fine, it Is the pur
pose of the court and the law that
the accused be personally punished,
for the amendment of his life and of
his deportment In the future, and to
deter others from committing like
offenses.
"I am of the view, therefore, that
by the death of Senator Mitchell the
cause abated entirely, so that no en
forcement of the payment of the fine
can be made out of his estate.
"The judgment of the court will
be that the entire cause Is abated and
that the fine Imposed Is not a sub
sisting claim or demand against the
estate of the deceased." '

Minneapolis, Sept. 3. An action to
recover MS.fiOO from the Northern
Pacific has been begun In district
court by the Rlchey & Gilbert Co. of

nishing refrigerator cars for apples
from Washington.
It Is asserted by the company that
during the first 15 days of November
last fruit was ready for shipment at
Toppentsh and North Yakima, Wash.,

notified of this fact and asked to pro
vide cars. The cars came, but the
plaintiff company asserts that the
cars were not furnished on time and
that the apples overrlpened and de
