People From All Over the United

Whom Will See Astoria.

There has been no arrangement made
IN Astoria to entertain the Thousands
Of people who will visit the city dur
ing the Lewis and Clark fair. II will
be impossible for Portland to find ac-
commodations for one-tenth Of the
people who win come there. Some
time ago committee was appointed to
procure q list of hotels and rooms In
private families and there has already
been over 10000 applications for ac-
commodations, which greatly exceeds
the supply. The same situation will
exist in Astoria. No arrangements have
been made for a representative In
toria. No committee has been aprcint-
ID to meet these visitors at the jepot
or wharves, and no accommodations
have been secured or prepared. There
will be thousands of visitors to Asto-
ria and Seaside during the f,ir. Many
of them will be intending investors
and people looking for place to To-
cate.
Railroad companies win De taxed 10
their uttermost to procure cars to
bring the people to Oregon. How the
Astoria & Columbia River Railroad
Company expect to handle all the peo-
pie between Portland and Seaside is
question they are at present trying to
figure out It is very probable that q
train viii be run between Astoria and
Seaside every hour, as In no other way
win the company be able to accommo- |
date the travel 1t Is also probable |
that the Sunday excursion trains viii
be cut out, as 1t viii be impossible TO
secure a sufficient number of passen-
ger cars to accommodate the large
number Of people that viii visit Sea-
side next summer.
Portland has not the hotel accom-
modations and never win have. to ac-
commodate the people coming from the
east. Astoria is similarly situated.
There is not first-class hotel In AS
toria and 1t Is the only city in the world
OF 10000 population and over that has
not a first-class hotel. Efforts have
been made to build new hotel, but no
definite action has been taken and
never win be. In this respect Astoria
win be handicapped and unless efforts ,
are taken at once to make arrange

FACTS FROM FRANCE.

There are not 10000 millionaires-
that is, possessors of 100000 francs,

All the streets named after saints in
the French town OF Dijou are to be
secularized, in accordance with reso-
luton Of the Socialist majority.
Paris swarms with automobiles, but
the local statlsucian finds that the
number of horses employed there
shows no diminutlon. There have been
t trihe less than 100000 Of the latter in
service in that city in recent years
When the size of France was calcu-
lated after tile war with Prussia 1t
was stated to be 62O.4OO square kilome-
ters. 1t has been found that the figure
was too small by lG401 square llilome-
ters and that the error was due to the
shrinkage Of the paper on which the

THE GREGORY STARTS ACROSS
THE ATLANTIC UNDER HER OWNl
POWER TO ENTER THE RACF,
HEISLEY WAS
ANGRY AT SLOW METHOD
OF MIDDLESEX LAWYERS.
Special 10 fhe E7ening Neus.

New Brunswick, Jan. G:-Justice
Heisley expressed his opinion of Mid.
dlesex county lawyers in no uncertain
terms when he opened court here this
morning. For every case called there
was request that it be adjourned.
The justice said that he had six
counties in his circuit and the lawy-
ers OF Middiesex were the slowest of
them all in getting their cases TO trial.
The case which particularly called
forth his wrath was the suit for eject.
ment brought by Mrs. Emma L.
Switzer against John H. Macan and
Mr. Pierson, growing ont Of the dis.
position Of the Comfort property.
Tie jury were all in court this
morning, likewise the cons tables, but
there was nothing to be heard. Thus
far the expense to the scounty this
week has been about 800 and not a
case has been tried. Justice Heisley
said he had left many cases in other
counties on purpose to come here only
to sit around and adjourn cases. He
declared that the next time he would
put all cases down for one day and II
none of them were ready then he
would adjourn them all for the term.
The request for an adjournment of
the Switzer case was made by Theo-
dore Strong, who represented his
brother, Alan Strong, attorney for
Mrs. Switzer, who is in the Court of
Errors today. He also presented an
affidavit that an importantlwitness for
Mrs. Switzer, Mrs. Emily Page, is
i'll in Lancaster, Pa, and could not
he present. 1t is claimed that Mrs.
Page will testify that she overheard
some conversation which will prove
that Mrs. Comfort was Influenced in
making her will. Mrs. Swltzer seeks
to have Macan and Pierson elected
from the property left them by Mrs.
Comfort. The case was finally set
down for January 10. Lawyer James
Parker repre- sents Macan.
