SMITHS TRAIL

Heard.

WOODBURY., Ore, May l.--outiaw
Frank Smith is a remarkable field gen
eral, lucky man, or a corpse Eaeh
one of the three theories has many adj
berents in WOODBURY. today. Those who
believe be is dead, however, are in the
minority, most everyone preferring 70
think that he is still hiding in the
country about Woodburn, and that he
will eventually be routed out.
Today has been one of many rumors
and reports, but no material develop
ments. Bloodhounds and men were not
able to locate his rendezvous or to get
any well-defned trail. A report reach
ing here late last night that Smith had
appeared near Newberg was generally
discredited. 1t is not thought possible
that he could have got across the Will
lamette and into the Newberg district
without foraging around the farms and
thus leaving a clear trail behind.
Bloodhounds Are Tried.
The principal interest in the man
hunt yesterday was conferred about the
which arrived here on the
train from Portland. A great
crowd was at the depot to see the dogs,
but when the trailers were taken into

cription, was fred upon Saturday morn

more before losing it. At 3 O'Clock
his search was abandoned.

LOOKING FOR SITES,


| San Francisco, April 27.-The frs
important step toward re-establIshint
trade relations in San Francisco wal
taken tonight when the realty men hei'
Ia hurried consultation with more than
ffty important merchants. The op1ee'
of the meeting was to secure temporary
quarters for the wholesalers, six OF
whom announced they were forced TO 80
Into business Immediately.
The meeting was called without warn
ling, so the real estate men were not
prepared to offer sites. 1t was decided
that the two bodies meet again Satur-
day morning at 10, to make maj ar
engagements. The realty men discovered
that the wholesalers were all ready to
move across the bay. The chairman OF
the meeting, Mr.. Triest, announced that
land was offered the wholesalers In Oak
land practically free Of charge for
period of two years.
Triest asked the real estate men for
figures and location sites, saying the
wanted them Immediately.
From his manner of expression 1t would
appear that some Of the wholesale mer-
chants were ready to desert San Fran
cisco and locate in Oakland until such
lime at least as San Francisco could be
rebuilt
The wholesalers announced their In
'ention to congregate in one district II
possible. They preferred the southern
,art of the city because of the railroad
there. 4, When the real estate
men mentioned several sites In the
'icinity Of North Beach the merchants
aid these would have to receive sec
nd call, as they wanted south of Mar
let street, if such q location were at
II possible.
The wholesalers said most Of their
iembers were willing to be housed un-
er one or two roofs at the present
lme, and that they could manage with
nch quarters for at least year. They
len asked the real estate men for fig
res on buildings. 1t was impossible

The wholesalers announced that six
their members would require at least

g adjourned others told the realty men
at they intended to join with the six
reopening right away, and, in rough
sures, it is estimated that the mer-
ANTS will need at least 100000

BUILD DISASTER PROOF.


Oakland, CAL, April 2b.--Han Fran
cisco can be rebuilt 30 the disaster from
earthquake and fire will DO practically
Inn possible. The dozen on two of steel
frame buildings that wiihstooG the ter
rible heat uprear themselves among
the dismantled ruins a. proof OF this.
The worst that happened to the modern
buildings WAS "sagging" from the
earthquake. Modern architectural
skill cannot overcome this, but 1t can
minimize the loss. Undoubtedly the
business center Of the city, at least,
will be built up according to plans that
will make 1t perfectly safe, come what
may.
Theirs ID d steady exodus from San
Francisco now, and it will continue.
Thousands are thoroughly frightened,
and every little window shaker that oc-
ours strikes terror into their souls.
But most OF the people will have their
nerve back within a week and then
nothing will be heard but talk OF up
building the city.
The Monadnock building, next to
the Palace Hotel, will be fitted up
shortly for offices, and several unfinish-
cd skyscrapers will be completed in the
midst of the desolation. Three months
from now there will be the greatest
building boom the city has ever known.
Wrecking work has begun. The streets
are being cleared and the shells of
buildings blown up. The Emporium
and 20 others went this morning.
Blasting is necessary only in the heart
Of the city. Throughout most OF the
miles OF ruins there is hardly wall |
standing.
