MISSOURI STATE
BUILDING BURNS

One of the Finest Structures Any
Commonwealth Had Erected on
the Grounds Now but Heap Of
BIackened Ruins.

Portland, Oct. 14.-Missouri state
building is the first OF the edifces OF
the Lewis and Clark fair to meet an
untimely fate at the hands of the de-
stroyer. 1t was not wrecking crew
which totally demolished Missouri's
magnificent representation at the West

flendish, relentless and unfeelins
flames, which tore and burnt their way
through the building from one end to
the other, devouring the rarest treas
ures Of art, almost invaluable exhibits.
costly fixtures, leaving in their wake
path OF destruction, vivid reminder
Of the awful power of fire.
The fire began apparently from an
unknown cause at o'clock last night,
presumably in the rear end, and within
10 minutes the whole of the building
and all OF its contents had been utterly
destroyed. A desk, trunk and three
chairs were the only things that were
saved. The statue, representing the
state OF Missouri, which stands in front
OF the building, and which was present
ed to the state of Oregon this week,
was untouched. The Missouri building
was sold yesterday to the Missouri
wreckage company, local concern, for
$4,000, but WAS not to have been de-
livered until today. The erection of
the building resulted in the expendi.
ture OF $l2, 900, and the cost of install
ing the exhibits amounted to about
So, 900 more. While the loss OF the
art gallery is commercially estimated
at $40, 900, most Of the paintings and
statues were owned by art admirers.
and could net be bought for the mere
sake OF money. The total loss of the
building, art gallery and exhibits is
estimated at $4,000. OF insurance
there was meager sum of $4,000 on
the art gallery.
All that remains of the Missouri
building is CHASTITY and heart rending
pile OF blackened boards and twisted
ironwork, where until last night stood
one of the most beat tiful buildings of
the whole Lewis and Clark exposition.
and which contained an art gallery of
beautiful paintings, and masterpieces
OF noted sculptures, which can never be
replaced.
The art gallery was the feature of the
building, nearly all the noted artists of
Missouri contributing to the assem-
blage OF the paintings and statues for
the express purpose of having them ex
hlolted at the Lewis and Clark exposi-
ton.

FAIR AT AN END.
Great Lewis and Clark Exposition
Passes Into History.


Portland, Oct. 16.-The Lewis an,
Clark Centennial exposition is ended
It's imposing palaces and buildings viii
come down; its we'll groomed terracel
and lawns will quietly fade to bar
monte once more with the rugged
landscape. But its influences for the
betterment Of a new country will live
ON forever.
1t ran it's course on chalk mark oil
success and ended in burst OF glory.
From financial standpoint 1t was a
success; from commercial standpoint
1t was a success; from an artistic stand
point 1t was a success. Look at the
Portland exposition from any stand
point you will, and all you see is sue
cess.
The end came at midnight, October
IA, with a scene that words can but
poorly describe. Although a heavy
rain was falling, thousands stood the
wetting and waited for the vital hour.
At ten minutes OF the hour President
H. W. Goode, Governor Chamberlain,
Mayor Lane and large party OF prom
inent citizens and exposition officials
entered the bandstand on Gray's boule-
ward. The band played medley Of
patriotic American airs, which brought
forth prolonged volleya OF cheering.
Then Governor Chamberlain was intro
duced. In few we'll directed words
he congratulated the people of Portland
and OF the Coast for the great success
they had achieved, and in passing, eu-
logized President Goode and those who
had been actively interested in shaping
the destinies of the exposition. Mayor
Lane spoke in similar vein, and ex-
pressed particular delight in the fact
that the fair should end in the midst
OF good old Oregon rainstorm.
Then there came pause, breath
less pause, during which there was
nervous consulting of watches. The
minute hands pointed to four minutes
Of midnight; then to three, then to
one. The life OF the great exposition
was swiftly ebbing away. 1t was but
now matter OF seconds. The hush
was that of death chamber.
President Goode arose slowly to pro-
claim the end. 1t WAS ten seconds
away. The greatest honor that has
ever come into my life or that ever will
was that of declaring this exposition
open," he said; II now officially de-
clare the Lewis and Clark Centennial
exposition at an end"

MAKE TIMBER DURABLE.
Forest Service Studies Methods, Also
Its Structural Strength.

Washington, Oct. II. - William l..
Hall, assistant forester In charge OF the
office OF forest products in the forest
service, has returned to Washington
alter an extended trip In the West.
The study OF the methods OF seasoning
and treating Western timbers to derive
their greatest service when put to use,
TO which Mr.. Hall has given special a.
tention on this trip, forms an import
ant part OF the work OF this office. And
the subject is considered OF such vital
consequence by steam and electric rail-
ways and telephone and telegraph COM
panies In the West that number Of
these companies are cooperating with
the forest service in its consideration.
Their interest centers chiefly in timbers
for tie and pole purposes. Tests are
now under way for tamsrack, hemlock
and cedar timber In Michigan and Wis
consin, and for red FIR, western hemlock
and western tamarack in Idaho and
Washington.
Another important line OF work in
the Office OF forest products is a series
OF tests OF strength Of structural tim
bers.

Taft Compromises Dispute With Do
minicans at S2,O5o,ooo.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Secretary Taft
has approved settlement arranged by
the Philippine government which COM
pletes the purchase of the Dominican
friar lands in the Philippine islands.
These lands include nearly half of
those purchased from the friars and
amount to about 200, 900 acres. After
the contracts we're signed, it was found
that mistake had occurred by reason
of difference in the E lglish and
Spanish versions Of surveys. The Span
ish version made the price 5000, 900
more than the English version. 1t also
was found that the titles to eight differ
ent tracts we're defective.
While Mr.. Taft was in the islands he
effected compromise by which the
Titles were to be made complete and
the purchase money paid according to
the English version, while the 5000

to arbitration. Since his return the
secretary has received a cable from
Governor Wright saying that the Do
minican agents have offered to COM
promise by accepting $4,000. Mr..

proving the compromise.
The total amount to be paid to the
Domlnicans is $4,000, 900. The money

TARIFF NOT TO BE TOUCHED.

Washington, Oct. Ex-senator Aid
rich, Of Rhode Island, the general man
sger Of the United States senate, Is moi
telling what the program is to be fol-
the coming session, but be has allowed
an intimstion 20 leak out that there
will be no tariff legislation, and NO
revenue legislation beyond some pro-
vision for Panama canal bonds.
What Mr.. Aldrivh may say and think
is not necessarily the plan 10 be fol-
lowed, but 1t is pretty apt to be, and
when the Rhode Island senator, who IL
chairman Of the finance committee,
says there Is to be no tariff legislation,
the probabilities are strongly In favor
OF such legislst;on being pigeonholed IL
II ever Gomez from the house.
But Senator Aldrich is believed to be
equally AZ interested In sappressing
railroad rate legislation which would
be offensive 10 his good friends, the
railroads, and there again be Is going
to have something to say later. though
he will not talk at the present time.
Senator Aldrich IL a member OF the
committee on interstate commerce, but
he did not attend the hearings given
by that committee last spring, alter
congress had adjourned. His mind is
made up on that question. He knows
how he will vote; he knows the kind
OF bill he fsvors; he understands what
his friends want, and when the time
comes for action, though be will say
little, he will get in powerful lot Of
effective work.
There Is no discounting Senator Al
drich's ability; be Is one Of the might
lest factors in congress, and 1t 30 hap
pens that he IL chairman OF the COM
mittee which handles tariff legislation
and a member OF the committee that
must pass upon the railroad rate bill
after 1t passes the house. That 10 an
other reason why Aldrich is In po-
sition TO speak with authority as TO
Legislative prospects at the coming SEES
sion.

BIG STICK READY.
America and France viii Apply It to
Castro, of Venezuela.


Washington, Oct. Is. - Venezuela,
was the subject Of an important CONVEX
sation at the State department today
between Secretary Root and Mr.. Jusse-
rand, the French ambassador. The
latter has been awaiting the arrival
here OF the report OF Mr.. Calhoun, the
American special commissioner, before
reporting 10 his government course of
action. Mr.. Calhoun has reported
verbally to the president and the secre-
tary, but he has not yet completed his
formal report upon the conditions he
found existing in Venezuela.
Enough is known, however to show
the similarity between the grievances
OF the Paris and Washington govern
ments. Whether this similarity shall
find corollary in parallel action on
the part of the two governments to
right their grievances has not yet been
decided. France has lately informed
the United States that the course she
has shaped is one of extreme patience,
but OF even greater frmness.
1t can be announced that the French
government already has considered sew
eral courses of action, any of which, it
is believed would bring President
Castro to terms. None will be adopted
however until Mr.. Root and Mr.. Jusse-
rand have further considered the report
oil Mr.. Calhoun. In the meantime both
governments will bide their time, let
ting it be known that both are equally
determined to obtain early justice for
their citizens.

Senator Long Predicts Much Distress,
in Philippines Otherwise.
Washington, Oct. IA. - In the opin.
ion of Senator Long, of Kansas. who
made the trip to the Far East with Sec.
rotary Taft and party, the greatest need
OF the Filipinos is freer trade with the
United States. The senator talked
with the president today about the
needs OF the Philippine islands. He
told the president that, in his iudo-
ment, the islands would be in serions
financial condition until a reduction Of
duties on their products entering the
United States was made.
Recently" said the senator "the
rllipinos have suffered from the tv-
phoons and drouth. As conse-
quence, their crops have either failed
or been wiped out, and they are becom-
ing discontinued. Their discontent
does not take revolutionary form, but
is simply the result of existing condj-
tions."
Mr.. Long discussed railroad rate
legislation with the president briefly.
de expressed the belief that the matter
would be disposed of early in the an.
preaching session.
