Magnificent Building Erected by Wash
ington Formally Opened. ,
Portland, June 3. The bonds of
friendship existing between the two
greatest states in the Northwest were
even more firmly cemented yesterday
at the Lewis and Clark exposition,
when the magnificent Washington
State buiding was formally dedicated
with ceremonies second only to the
opening day exercises of Thursday.
The spirit of triendllaesa which binds
the two states together in the great
task ot developing and upbuilding the
Northwest was exemplified by the elo
quent addresses of the speaker who rep
resented both the state of Washington
and the state of Oregon, Vice President
Fairbanks, the personal representative
of the president, honored the Washing
ton delegation by his presence and de
livered a short but very pointed and
appropriate speech.
The condition ot the weather was
perfect before and during the cere
monies, but immediately after the close
of the exercises dark and heavy clouds
appeared on the horison, giving the
impression that the unfavorable weath
er had been delayed because of the
lespect the elements held for the great
state of Washington. Long before the
commencement of the exercises, which
were held at 11 o'clock, Washington
ians, Oregonians and visitors from all
patts of the United States began to
assemble in anticipation ot the dedi
cation. By the time the hour arrived
for the opening of the ceremonies the
exposition grounds east ot the Wash
ington building were crowded with
people.
Hundreds of them were from Wash
ington, and it is said that there was
not a city in the state, no matter how
it ranked in importance with its sister
cities, that was not represented at the
dedication. There were visitors from
even the remotest portions of Washing
ton, who traveled many miles on
horseback to reach a railroad which
would take them to Portland. The
delegations from Spokane, Seattle, Ta
coma and Walla Walla were particu
larly large, the most prominent public
men being in attendance.
QUOTES HISTORIC INCIDENT
Russia Cries for Punishment of Ne
bogatoff for Surrendering.
St. Petersburg, June 3. Feeling in
the admiralty against Rear Admiral
Nebogatoff continues to run high, the
majority of the naval authorities being
deaf to the appeals cf the few who
insist that the admiral's action in sur
rendering his warships should not be
condemned until the circumstances
become fully known. The majority say
they could forgive anything but surren
der and point to the precedent in the
case of the Russian ship Raphael,
which, in 1829, during the Russo
Turkish war, struck its colors to three
Turkish ships which surrounded It.
Nicholas I meted out a terrible punish
ment to the officers and crew of the
Raphael, ordering that all of them
should be shot after their exchange and
directing that, if the ship should ever
be recaptured, its infamous history
should be blotted out by the total de
struction of the vessel. The Raphael,
strange to say, was recaptured 34 years
later at Sinope during the Crimean
war, a son of the captain who sur
rendered her taking part in the battle,
and to this son fell the task of execut
ing the dead emperor's orders to de
stroy her. Many naval authorities
claim that the emperor should reserve
the same fate for Admiral Nebogatoff.
PACIFYING EAST SAMAR.
Removal of Corrupt Officials May
End Rebellion.
Manila, June 3. Brigadier General
George M. Randall will sail for the
United States on June 15.
Brigadier General Carter, commander
of the department of the Visayas, now
engaged in the pacification of the na
tives on the east coast of the island
of Samar, has 16 companies of infantry
and 12 companies of scouts operating
in the field, with four more companies
of infantry under orders. The uprising
of the natives in this quarter is not
against the government. They have
rebelled on account of the corrupt prac
tices of native officials and hemp agents,
who have been underpaying the men
for their products.
Sailors Mutiny in Battle.
London, June 3 The St. Petersburg
correspondent of the Times wires that
he had obtained from high authority a
report that Admiral Nebogatoff's sailors
mutinied in the battle and threw the
admiral and many ot their officers over
board. He states further that the
sailors found their officers in the
cabins and hoisted a white flag,
surrendering to the Japanese. It is
said that eight men of Nebogatoff's
squadron were hanged for mutiny
while the squadron was still in the Red
sea.
Wicked Wind Betrayed Him.
Tokio, June 3. A telegram from
Sasebo says that Admiral Rojestvensky
stated in an interview that he hoped to
clear Ten island in a fog, but a sudden
southwestern gale cleared the fog and
revealed the presence of his fleet.
OPEN TO THE WORLD
Centennial cl Lewis and Clark
Formally Observe!
GREAT THRONG ATTEND OPENING
Military Pageant, Addresses by Na
tion'e Dignitaries and Festivities.
Inaugurate the Exposition.
Portland, ' June 2. The Lewis and
Clark Centennial exposition is open.
Portland is playing host to theJwoiMd.
Yesterday, the opening day, will find
a bright place in the history of the na
tion, marking as it does, the slatting
point ot an enterprise that means the
greater upbuilding ot the West and
Northwest; new trade relations with
the Orient; closer trade relationship
between the Pacific coast and the At
lantic seaboard, and the hundreds of
attendant and incidental benefits that
will accrue to the country.
The owning ceremonies and demon
strations were on a scale commensurate
with the greatness of the day. They
were carried through without a hitch
of any consequence. Old exposition
attaches, who have attended the im
portant world's fairs ot the past de
cade, declared they had never before
beheld so pretty or so effective an
opening.
The attendance passed even beyond
the most sanguine otlicial expectations.
Crowds, such as have never before lined
the streets ot Portland, saw the great
military pageant that preceded the
opening exercises. Standing room on
the three miles ot streets was at a pre
mium. And when the paiade was at
an end this ocean ot humanity turned
its tide on the exposition grounds.
Across Guild's lake on the peninsula
a section of artillery tolled oft the pres
idential salute ot 21 guns, the dark
blue smoke from the cannonading lift
ing slowly above the government's pal
ace and adding enchantment to the
peaceful grandeur ot the inspiring
landscape to the north.
This salute brought on the opening
exercises. All of the speakers weie en
thusiastically received. Especially
cordial was the reception accorded the
nation's representatives. The exercises
were marred by no unpleasant incident.
So orderly was everything that the
heavy detachment of policemen and
guardsmen were not put to the neces
sity of issuing a single admonition.
It was exactly 12 o'clock to the dot
when President H. W. Goode, of the
exposition, called for order. It was
hardly 2 o'clock when President Roose
velt was informed by wire that all was
ready. The president was in waiting
for the message at the White house.
The great crowd leaned forward in a
state of high nervous tension waiting
for the first peals of the government
chimes, which were to have been Presi
dent Roosevelt's first response. But,
lucklessly, the chimes failed to work,
and after a full minute of breathless
waiting, the assemblage was informed
by Mr. Goode that the president had
sent his greeting. At the same time
he declared the exposition formally
opened and extended a greeting to all
the world. President Roosevelt's con
gratulatory telegram was then read
and received with tremendous ap
plause. There was apparently almost as many
people at the fair grounds last night as
were present at the opening exercises.
Although the exhibits buildings were
closed, the exposition by night seemed
in every particular as great an attrac
tion as during the open hours of the
day.
When darkness fell upon the heights
that raise beyond the fairy city the
reason was plain.
As a feast for the eye the spectacle
was incomparably beautiful. The
fireworks which were a feature of the
evening, were beautiful in the extreme,
but they paled before the splendor of
the electricity.
Admissions 39,677.
As nearly as could be estimated by
Chief of the Department of Admissions
F. B. Davison the total admissions at
the Lewis and Clark exposition yester
day was 39,577. This estimate was
announced last night after the gates
had been closed to the public and re
ports from the three entrances had been
counted. Mr. Davison says that his
estimate is not absolutely correct and
that he will not know the exact num
ber of admissions until today. He
says, however, that his estimate will
not vary more than 200.
Two Revenue Cutters Here,
There are two revenue cutters now in
port. The Russ arrived shortly after
dusk last evening and dropped anchor
in the stream above the Burnside street
bridge and just astern of the cutter Mc
Culloch. The Rush was on her way
from Seattle to San Francisco, when
she received orders at Port Townsend
to stop at this city. She will remain
here for some time and will then pro
ceed south.
