WAR CLOUD IS OMNIBUS
And Menacing-War-Like ProcIama-
ton of servian Excites Chan
ceIlories of Europe.

Washington, D. c., March 1.-THE
latest dispatches from the great Eu-
ropean centers indicate that the war
cloud in the Balkan is daily becoming
more ominous and menacing. The
war-Iike proclamation issued by the
Z Servians against Austria has excited
all of the chancellories of Europe and
there is no conclealing the general
fear that it is likely to lead to an
early outbreak of actual hostilities.
How this crisis that threatens the
peace of the whole of Europe has
been brought about is briefly set forth
in the following statement, which will
give the average American reader a
better understanding of the main
facts in the situation than he probably
has been able to gain from the flood
of cable news during the past few
months.
s Austria, in annexing Bosnia and
herzegovina, provinces inhabited al
most wholly by Serbs, stated that she
was merely regularizing the long ac-
complished fact of her possession and
virtual government of the two coun-
tries Austria further contends that
she has only to settle matters with
Turkey, the ancient and nominal ruler
of the provinces in question, and that
Servia has nothing to say in the mat
ter, as she was no party to the treaty
of Berlin, and has suffered no terri
torial loss.
Servia, on the other hand, declares
that the violation by Austria of the
treaty of Berlin, devised to secure
peace and security for all the Balkan
states, menaces vital Serb interests
and reduces her to a position of abso-
lutte dependency upon the good will of
Austria; that SerVia, as the head of
the Serb peoples, is entitled to ask
Europe to insist upon guarantees for
the rights and liberties of the Bos-
mans, and for such concessions from
Austria as will secure Servian indie
pendence, political and economic.
France, Russia and England, as
signatories of the treaty of Berlin,
are prepared to make representations
to Vienna, on the understanding that
they are not treated as unfriendly ac-
tions. Italy sympathizes with Servia.
but Germany dissuades Austria from
listening to these overtures and press
es for the coercion of Servia, to
which the Others will not consent.
Russia has clearly intimated that pub
lie opinion will not allow her to be.

DUNIwAY HuRRIEs WORK.
State Printer Expects to Have Session
Laws Ready Next Month.

Salem-State Printer Duniway states
that he expects to have the laws of
the 1909 session printed and ready for
distribution about 70 days after the
adjournment of the regular session of
the legislature. The volume will in
clude the laws of the special session
also.
If the work is completed in 20 days,
it will be much quicker than it has
ever been done before, although the
nearst approach to the time was made
by Mr.. Duniway two years ago. The
state printer has already printed and
delivered large number of special
copies of the water code and the in
surance code, as per resolutions passed
by the legislature. The tax commits
sion law and the military code are also
well under way. All these measures
bear the emergency clause.
The state printing Office has been
equipped with thousands of dollars
worth of new material, including a
latest model linotype, and the printing
of the laws and other work is being
greatly facilitated as result.

BALKAN SITUATION is ACUTE
Peace Efforts of Powers Fail, and
Outbreak is Expected.


Paris, March 26.-It is understood
in official circles that the Balkan stu
alton on account of the irreconcilable
attitude of Austria-H Hungary has now
reached its most acute stage and that a
few days will decide between peace
or war. The efforts of Great Britain,
France and Russia to present formal
settlement of the difficulty acceptable
to Baron Won Aehrenthal, the Austro-
Hungarian minister of foreign affairs,
having failed, Austria Hungary is ex-
pected forthwith to deliver an ultima
tum at Belgrade.
After this, if Servia refuses to make
complete surrender, officials here think
that Austria Hungary will dispatch an
army across the frontier. The Eclair
today announces that the absent off
GERS belonging to the French regiment
on the Eastern frontier have been re-
called. The minister of war says "that
certain precautionary measures have
been taken on account of the tension
of the Balkan situation"
The government this afternoon was
officially advised that Russia had
agreed to accept without reserve the
annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina
by Austria Hungary. 1t is hoped thai
this will remove Baron Aehrenthals
objection to the Servian note formu'
lated by Great Britain, France anc
Russia.

Governor COSgrOVe Passes Away
! at PaSO RObIeS.
end COMES VERY UNEXPECTEDLY
Heart Failure Was Immediate Cause
of Death-Body to Be Brought
North for Burial.

Paso Robles, CAL, March 19.-Sam-
uel G. Cosgrove, governor of the state
of Washington, died here suddenly at
80 o'clock yesterday morning.
Heart failure was the immediate
cause of the governors death. Al
though his condition had recently been
reported as improving, the governor
had really been growing worse, and two
days ago he took to his room. Although
conscious of his weakened condition,
death was sudden and there was no op-
portunity for last farewell between
husband and wife.
Bright's disease had marked Govern
or Cosgrove for victim over eight
months ago. He broke down in health
during the Washington primary cam
paign, retiring to his home at Pomeroy,
WASH, in September, and was brought
to Paso Robles hot springs shortly after
the election in November. Although
Governor Cosgrove improved slightly
under the treatment here, the strain of
the trip to Olympia to take the inaug-
ural oath was too great and an immedi-
ate reaction set in.
Mrs. Ccsgrove, worn out from her
months of constant attendance upon
her feeble husband, was overcome by
ther grief, but late in the afternoon
had recovered her poise sufficiently to
make the preliminary arrangements for
starting home with the body. 1t has
been decided that Mrs. Cosgrove, ac-
companied by Mr.. and Mrs. ]. M. An
derson, of Seattle, friends of the Cos
groves, will leave Paso Robles this
morning at $40 on the north bound
train for San Francisco. If that train
is on time the funeral party will be
able to connect with the Portland ex-
press leaving Oakland this afternoon.
This will bring them into Portland
late Tuesday night and hurried trip
will be made to Olympia, the capital
of Washington. 1t is the desire of
Mrs. Cosgrove to have services held al
the capitol and later the remains will
be removed to the family home at
Pomeroy.

CASTRO LACKS CASH.
Deposed Dictator of Venezuela Shorn
of All His SpIendor.

Deposed Dictator of Venezuela Shorn
of All His SpIendor.
Paris, March 26.-In striking con-
trast with his first visit to Paris, ex-
President Castro, of Venezuela, ar
rived here last night, bereft of his
suite of 20 followers, with crestfallen
manner and almost entirely unnoticed
by his fellow passengers from Co
logne, who regarded him with pity
rather that any other sentiment. With
few intimates the ex-dictator dined
at his hotel and then retired to an Or
dinary bedroom entirely lacking in
the luxury of his former quarters in
the same establishment.
The truth seems to be that he is in
reduced circumstances, at least for the
moment, as his monthly income of
$50, 900, according to information Civ
en- by a member of the household, is
temporarily tied up.
General Castro, with great irrita-
tion, particularly after he had been in
formed that the French Transatlantic
company would not land him at La
Guayra on account of protest of the
Venezuelan government, shut the dool
in the face of reporters. His wife,
however, said he would make up his
mind where to land after he got aboarC
ship at Bordeaux.

Arrest for kidnapping.
Cleveland, March 24.-"I am the one
who planned the whole thing; there
will be trouble for me and hell in
Sharon tomorrow.
These words, spoken to Captain Of
Police Shattuck yesterday by woman
he had arrested in company with man
on suspicion of being implicated in the
kidnapping of Willie Whitla, of Sharon,
O., have stirred the police to new
efforts to run down the band who stole
the lad away from his school. While
the police were at first inclined to
think that their prisoners, who carried
the sum of SO, 9S9 with them, were the
entire kidnapping gang, the woman's
words are regarded as threat and the
police now think that possibly one Oh
two other members of the gang are
still at large and that revenge for the
capture of the ringleaders will be
taken on the boy.
Extra precautions to guard tn,
Whitla lad at his home will be taker
to make the carrying out of any sucf
threat an impossibility and anyone
found lurking around the premises will
be instantly arrested.

FAIR BRINGS THOUSANDS
People From East Coming to North

Feople from East looming 10 Nortn-
west Seeking Opportunities.
Right now the Alaska Y Yukon-P Pacific
exposition is the magnet that is at
tracing thousands of people from East
ern, Southern and Middle Western
states to the Pacific coast partly for
the reason that the exposition will open
up a new line of thought with its great
displays from Alaska, Hawaii and the
Philippines as well as the Orient, and
partly because of the much advertised
scenic beauties of the states bordering
on the Pacific.
The state of Washington and more
particularly the Puget sound country
will soon be the mecca for trainloads
of strangers. But Washington will
not hold the visitors for an indefinite
period for they have something in mind
further than visit to the exposition
at Seattle.
There are opportunities on the Pacific
coast for the homeseeker as we'll as
the merchant and manufacturer and the
visitors to the fair intend to see Just
what Oregon, Idaho, Colorado, Utah,
Wyoming, Nevada, Oklahoma, as we'll
as British Columbia have to offer in the
way of inducements to settlers. of
course the tourists will be here in large
numbers and their itinerary nearly al
ways includes all the mountain, lake
and seaside resorts of the Northwest.
The exposition itself is going to open
the eyes of the thousands of visitors
who will come Seattle expecting to
find an exhibition very similar to what
has been offered before. The Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition is not going
to be remembered after its gates close
because of its great size or by the num-
Der of its buildings, but because of the
beautiful picture formed by the work
of the builder and landscape artist,
framed in by lakes, mountains and
woodland scenery distributed lavishly
on every hand by nature. When the
exposition opens on June ! the show
will be complete in every detail, an ex-
ample of Western spirit and enterprise.

TEST SPOKANE DECISION.
Railroads Can Get No Encouragement
From Prouty's Explanation.

Railroads Can Get No Encouragement
From Prouty's Explanation.
Chicago, March 26.-On behalf of
the Western railroads involved in the
Spokane rate case, j. G. Stubbs today
tried to get some light on the decision
of the commission. At his request,
Commissioner Prouty met him and the
various points in the decision were
gone over and discussed.
1t is understood that the commits
sioner informed the railroad man that
the decision meant about what it said
and that the order was drawn in way
which, in the opinion of the commits
sion, would make it most difficult to
attack successfully. No secret is made
of the fact that the railroads have de-
cided to test the order in the courts,
because they feel that the struggle
between the commission and the rail-
roads with regard to rate principles
must be fought out to finish.
