Attendance Will Break All Records.
All is hustle and confusion at tho
fair grounds where order Is being
wrought out of chaos In preparation
for the greatest state fair the state
of Oregon or Pacific Coast has ever
known, the gates of which will he
thrown open to tho public Monday
morning and will continue through
out tho week.
Never has there been such prom
ise of a successful meeting as is pre
sented the members of tho hoard of
agriculture and Secretary Prank
Meredith, who is burled up to his
neck with the work attendant upon
the opening of tho big show, all -of
whom have worked hard and un
ceasingly to make it a success and
there is every reason to beliove, wea
ther conditions being favorable, that
their fondest hopes will bo realized.
Notwithstanding tho Portland
fair and livestock show does not
close until tonight many carloads of
livestock and other exhibits arrived
last night and today; and a busy
scene is being enacted in all of the
departments at the fair grounda.
Several carloads of cattle, hogs and
sheep have arrived and been placed
in tho barns and pens and they are
of tho finest quality that has ever
been shown at a state fair or any
exhibition in the AVest. They are
coming in larger numbers than ever
before and the fair management has
begun to fear1 that the additional
provisions made for tho accomoda
tion of tho stock will not be ade
quate to supply the demand for
space and the competition for the
big prizes hung up will be strong
and spirited in every class, and par
ticularly so in regard to horses, cat
tle, sheep and swine.
Although It is still early and there
Is an abundance of time in which to
get the county, and other fruit and
agricultural displays in place, a
large force of men and women are at
work in the pavilion, tho space of

UNITED TRESS LEAKEr WinK.
Now York, Sept. 10. Broken and
dospondont, with his romance shat
tered and his fortuno scattered, Rob
ert AVinthrop Chanlor, suitor for tho
hand of Mmo. Llna Cavalelrl, Is In
hiding today, according to state
ments of his acquaintances hore,
Following Chanlor's recent hur
ried return from Europe, stories of
a separation with his wlfo wero cir
culated. Theso Chanler vehemently
douled. With a week passed since
his return, however, another reason
for his return has boon suggested by
his friends.
According to them, shortly after
his marrlago, Chanlor transferred
his $30,000 yearly Incomo to Mmo.
Cavalelrl, who now offers him 30
monthly to pay his expenses. Fur
ther, they say, ho tuinferred to her
tho bulk of his estato, the papers be
ing signed before their marriage,
upon Mme. Cavalelrl'a domand. Ufa
friends fear his mind may become
affected and some of them aro with
him constantly In his retreat, which
they refuno to divulge, to keep him
'from brooding over hla troubles.
Chanlor paid ardont court to the.
singer for more than a year. After
froquent proposals he was accepted.
They were rnarrifcd June 15.
A cable message from Mme. Cav
alelrl toddy denies any separation.
The message was worded similarly
to that she sent the day after Chaii
li't's r mm.
young Bartruff, th'ci son of a promi
nent and prosperous narmor of near
this' city, could not be learned, but
he has always been looked upon as
an industrious and honorablo young
man by those who know him. At any
rate tho young couplo appeared at the
county clerk's ofllco on Wednesday
cf this week, and, with tho written
consent of tho parents of tho young
girl, who was undevr tho age required
by law, secured a maYrln'ge license,'
and woro married' tho same day by
Rev. P. S. Knight, or this city.
Husband Is Missing.
AVliat happened nfter that la not
known, as tho young wife Is in such n
condition of mind and physical mis
ery that sho cannot tell hor story,
and her relatives hnd not been ap
prised of her tragic act, and could
not be seen this afternoon, but from
tho fact that tho efforts of tho officers
to locate the young husband have
been, fruitless ns yet, and tho condi
tions surrounding tho case, load to
tho bollef that something has either
happened him or that ho deserted
tho girl upon tho ovon'ng of or the
day following tho marrjago, and drlv
en to desperation over hor pitiful
plight, she committed tho rush net,
which will doubtless end hor earth
ly xistenco.
Could Not Find Husband's Folks.
Tho parents of tho girl live about
live miles out of tho city, whoro sho
has boon staying. It appears that
young Bartruff has a married slstor
living on High or Cottago streets, In
this city, and tho girl, aftor walking
into town from hor homo, tried to
find the homo of liar husband's slstor,
In tho hopn of finding hor hu(and.
She made inqu'ries at sovoral places
on High and Church streots Inst
night, but, being unablo to, find tho
place sho sought, sho took tho deadly
drug and would have died had sho not
been discovored writhing In agony in
the yard of Clyde Johnson at Union
and Church stroots. It was at first
thought tho young woman was intox
icated, but it was lator discovored
that sho had drunk carbolic add from
a small vial which was found lying
noar whore sho rollod upon tho grass.
Dr, O. B. Miles was summoned, and
rushed to hor assistance
Little Hope of Recovery.
She was immediately taken to the
Salem hospital, whoro ovory effort
was mode to rollovo hor sufferings,
and savo her life, and, although sho
is resting easlor today, hor mouth
and throat aro badly burned with tho
poison, and thoro are not many
chances in favor of her rocovery.
From hor condition, and that of hor
clothing, whtfli found, Dr, Miles is of
tho opinion that sho must havo taken

tho whole powor of tho govornmont
to right this wrong. I cannot say
what the facts aro hero, but it is cer

of lawlessness hnvo beon committed,
Including bombing and tho using of

"Tho authorities' llrst duty is to

A union is equally as necessary as
