FORMER PRESIDENT is
WELCOMED AT NAPLES

Naples, April 6.-Theodore Roose.
welt passed several hours in Naples
yesterday and was given many evi.
dences of his personal popularity with
the Italian people.
The seamer Hamburg, on which Mr..
Roosevelt was a passenger, coming in
soon after noon, was greeted with the
blowing Of whistles, the futtering of
many flags and the playing of bands.
Italian warships in the harbor, steam
ers, private yachts and craft of all
kinds, dressed in bunting and signal
flags, added to the picturesqueness of
the scene, which Mr.. Roosevelt char
acterized as magnificent.
Following the luncheon Mr.. Roose-
welt proceeded in a motor car with
Ambassador Griscom to Capodimonte,
to meet the Duke and Duchess of Aosta
at their palace
Later the party made the trip to Po-
sillpo, and the ex-president was recog.
nized and cheered all along the way.
They sat in the balcony of one of the
characteristic Neapolitan restaurants
overhanging the sea, the bay at their
feet, always glorious, whether in calm
or storm

TWO MILLION DOLLARS
FOR A MILE OF TRACK

Spokane, April 3.-Just inside the
west city limits of Spokane the Great
Northern railway is building its link
to connect with the Spokane, Portland
and Seattle line. This connection is
to be established by one of the most
expensive pieces of construction work
ever accomplished in Washington.
To build something over mile more
than So, 900, 900 will be expended and
eight months will be required to COM
plete the work. Five hundred men
soon will be employed day and night,
and the camp resembles a miniature
city. Independent electric light plants,
also compressed air systems are being
installed for work in the tunnel under
Greenwood cemetery, through solid rock
for 1900 feet.
The camp also has it's own water
supply brought through it's own mains
from spring 5000 feet above the
work. The work is the more difficult
from the fact that the railroad is MAX
ing an effort to deface just as little as
possible one of the most picturesque
sections Of the city.

HAY NOT TO HURRY SALE
OF LAND FOR NEW CAPITOL

Olympia, April 3.-Gov. Hay has
announced that the erection of a new
state capitol building at Olympia would
be deferred at least two years. The
governor states that the recent legisla-
ture authorized the sale of the state
land grant for the purpose of erecting
a new state house, but he believes that
a better price can be secured than the
tentative offer of So, 800, 900 which was
recently received. Gov. Hay says that
he wishes to thoroughly consider the
proposition Of sale before acting on
the authority reposed in him by the
legislature. Senator Poison, of Aber-
deem, agrees with the governor and
claims thai the land authorized sold in
seven years will treble in value and
that the state of Washington would
then be enabled to put up most hand
some edifice as the home of it's govern
ment.

ON BOTH BIRTHDAY GEN. BOOTH
OPENS SALVATION UNIVERSITY

London, April 3.-Drums will beat
around the world on April 10 and pray
ers go up in fifty languages from half
a million men and women in honor of
the eightieth birthday Of Gen. William
Booth, the grand old man who heads
the Salvation Army.
The Army, which has branches from
Iceland to India and Australia, is the
product of the mind of this veteran SOL
der against sin, whose mind is as clear
and active today as it was half CEN
fury ago. He has grown with it and
still directs it's minutest operations.
All around the world the Salvation
Army will celebrate the birthday Of
their leader. On that day, too, the
general will show fresh proof OF his
virility by launching the most ambi-
tious project yet started by the organi-
zation.
A big University of Salvation-to
cost So, 900, 600, with branches in Lon
don, New York and Chicago-this is
Gen. Booths latest plan for advancing
his work. He will issue the call for
funds on his birthday. The purpose
of the school is to train workers in all
branches of Salvation work.

SETTLED
WAR IN YAKIMA
VALLEY NOW AT
AN END.
North Coast Construction Will Be
Pushed From This Time On.
Branch at Cowlitz Pass, One
Line to Portland and One to
Seattle.

North Yakima, March 31-The tight
between the North Coast and the
Northern Pacific railroads in the lower
valley practically has been abandoned,
and the work on the North Coast will
he pushed from now on. This is the
statement made by Robert E. Strahorn,
of the North Coast, who was in North
Yakima yesterday. It is expected to
have the North Coast completed into
Yakima by January 1, and 100 miles
of the road in operation by that time.
Nearly all the right of way for the
North Coast through the Yakima val
lev to the summit of the Cascades has
been secured. President Strahorn says
the North Coast does not own the
North Yakima & Valley road, which
runs from this city to Naches City.
After going through the Cowlitz pass
the road will branch, one line going to
Tacoma and Seattle and the other to
Portland. The road also branches at
Kiona, one line going to Spokane and
the other to Walla Walla. President
Strahorn refused to say where the road
would go from these points.

HARTMAN LINES WILL
CONTEST SPOKANE RATE

Portland. Or, April 5.-The Itarri-
man lines will, according to w. W.
Cotton, general attorney for the Ore
qon Railroad & Navigation Company,
contest in the courts the recent decl-
sion If the Interstate commerce COM
mission in the case commonly known
as the Spokane rate case" on the
ground that the Hartman lines are
compelled to carry freight much
longer distance in order to deliver it at
Spokane from Eastern points than is
the Great Northern or Northern Pa
cific. The mileage of the Union Pacific
from St. Paul to Spokane is 1900,
while the mileage of the Northern Pa
cific is 1912 and of the Great North
ern 1 ,492 between the points named.
In view Of these distances, according
to Mr.. Cotton, it would appear that
the order of the commission naming
certain rates as reasonable between
Chicago, St. Paul and Spokane, was
inadvertently made applicable by the
commission to the Union Pacific sys-
tenn.
After an exhaustive study of the
Spokane decision, railroad traffic men
have come to the conclusion that they
know nothing about it. No rate man
in the territory will offer to tell what
the effect will be They refer to the
decision as having the effect of pulling

leaving the whole structure Of rates in
the Pacific Northwest on an unstable
foundation.
That the whole fabric will have to
be rebuilt is predicted. Traffic men
say that as no we'll defined system OF
rate making was followed in the Spo-
kane decision, it upsets rates that have
prevailed in the West for years without
establishing any new principle to be
followed in the general readjustment.

Up. EXPOSITION BE-

REGIMENTS of Workers In All De-
partments Making Strenuous
Efforts, With Every Prospect of
Success, to the End that Expo
sition May Be in Readiness.

Seattle, April 8. -Twenty -one hun
dred men are hard at work putting the
fin ishing touches on the bilduings and
gronds of the Alaska yukon Pacific
Exposition. Of this number $50 are
engaged on the group of buildings
under construction by the United
States government and the remainder
upon such state buildings as are not
now finished and upon the elaborate
scheme of landscape gardening which
is now down to the last details.
Another regiment of workers is busy
inside the exposition structures install
ing exhibits from every country under
the sun. The Alaska exhibit will have
been fully installed by April Is. The
Alaska and Philippine buildings were
the first completed by the government,
and an excellent idea of the marvellous
exhibit of the Northland is already to
be had The Philippine exhibit is not
yet in the city, but is close to the port
on two government transports.
The Hawaiian building is complete,
save some of its Communications Of
plaster staff and May l will see the
exhibit in place with the exception Of
the pineapple fields, which will not be
planted until the eleventh hour. The
government aquarium is another on
the completed list, and it's interior is
rapidly being made ready for it's ex-
hibit of live food fishes.
Much of the staff work remains to
be done upon the central government
building, but as all the heavy construc-
tion is done and the staff goes on
quickly under skilled hands, everything
will have been finished by the middle
of April The exhibits will be ready
for installation at that time as they
are now en- route from the national
capital.
The seven and one half miles of
asphalt paving has been completed for
a fortnight and the electrical installa-
ton was finished with the erection of
the thousands of ornamental ground
lights.
The director of works annouonces
that at the present rate of progress the
exposition will be completed product
by May LIST with the possible excep-
ton of a few touches on the '.Pay
Streak" which will not carry beyond
May 18th at the latest.
