new ASYLUM HEAD
ARRIVES IN CITY

DR.. McNary, newly appointed su-
perintendent of the Eastern oregon
Hospital, arrived here last evening
and has been engaged in looking over
the buildings and grounds west of the
city in connection with his duties as
head of the institution.
81 will be here hut a short time,
as 1 will devote most of my time for
the present to work at Salem" said
DR.. McNary to a representative of
the East Oregonian. with the con-
struction work on the branch hos
pital have nothing to do.
1--WE are planning to send inmates
to the Eastern Oregon Hospital just
as soon as the buildings are ready for
use. At this time there are $50 pa
tients at the state hospital committed
from eastern oregon points. 1t will
be the policy to send these inmates
to the Pendleton hospital and with
the new patients heing constantly
committed it will not be long until the
institution will be filled"
According to DR.. McNary it is very
probable that criminal insane will not
be sent here owing to lack of proper
! provision for their housing at this
time.
On the 26th of the month-at
Roundup time-Dr. McNary will be
back in Pendleton and will meet with
Governor West and other members
of the state board for the purpose OF
going over branch hospital affairs.

SUFFRAGE LEADER is
COMING FOR ROUNDUP
Here to Deliver Speech Fri
day, Sept. %.

Pendleton is to be honored during
the Roundup by the presence of Mrs.
Anna Shaw of Boston. president of
the National Equal Suffrage associa-
ton, who will be here during the af-
ternoon and evening of Friday, Sep
tember %. This was the announce
ment made this morning by local suf-
frage workers and which has caused
great rejoicing in their ranks.
Mrs. Shaw is probably the finest
woman speaker in the world today
and is one of the foremost figures in
the national life of this country. Ar
rangements have not yet been defi-
nitely completed as to the program
or place of speaking, but it is pos
sible that she may address the people
from an automobile in the street in
order that she will reach the mass
of men who will be in attendance up
on the Roundup festivities.

T. R. D0DGED ISSUES
SAYS JUDGE LOWELL

Judge stephen 4. Lowell. republi-
can leader and political astrologer,
is not numbered among those who be-
lieve that Theodore Roosevelt has
furthered his candidacy by his visit
to oregon. He feels that the Bull
Moose leader has not satisfied the
public demand for some explanation
Of his attitude toward burning ques-
tions of the day.
"Roosevelt's tour through Ore
gon must be disappointment to
his friends" he said this morning.
He has been weighed in the balances
ed his coming to learn where he
stands upon the vital questions of the
hour; they asked bread and he has
given them a stone. read with such
care as possible his Portland address
to ascertain his views upon the trust
problem, and found that he had dodg-
ed the question. | wanted to know
from him the connection of Perkins
of the steel trust and the harvester
trust with his candidacy but when
La Grande auditor asked regarding
that Roosevelt lost his temper and
refused to answer. Two weeks ago
he proclaimed that Jonathan Bourne
was the only man who had ever APP
preached him in the interest of the
standard oil company and yet In
Portland he expressly endorsed
Bourne. 1t seems to me that Roose-
velt's candidacy has waxed to its lin.
it, and will now wane to its death
His friendship for the trusts anG
public sentiment against the thirG
term must ALLEVIATE thinking men ev'
erywhere. In my judgment his con
tinued candidacy can only result II
the easy election of Governor Wilson.

Toxic, Japan, Sept. 13.-Passing in
magnificence through the silent ranks
Of hundreds of thousands of the sub
jects who in life honored him as a
god, the body of the late Emperor
Mutsuhito Of Japan was borne this
evening through the deadened streets
of Toxic for his public funeral SER
vices at the AOyama parade ground.
The actual burial of the late ruler,
will be held tomorrow at Momoyama,
near Kioto. where lie the ashes of
Emperor Kwammu, mikado of a
thousand years ago.
The principal event of the day was
the proclamation of amnesty by EN-
peror Yoshisito to political offenders
in which members of the anarchist
band of Denjiro Kotoku, still held in
prison, were not included. The hall
at Meijl university collapsed and more
than 100 students worshipping the
spirit of the dead mikado, were in
jured.
More than 100000 people saw the
last public honors paid to the Jap
anese emperor who saw his country
emerge from emi-barbarism to be-
come one of the leading powers of
the world Massed by hundreds of
thousands they stood as the splendid
cortege wound through the capital
city while sevening fell, closed doors
and windows Theoretically sealed be-
hind them, while over the smart mill
itary uniforms of New Japan and the
flowing silks of an older day flared
thousands of torches in the hands of
soldiers who formed a solid avenue
of flame from the palace gates to the
place of ceremony.
Promptly at o'clock the whole i'm
perial guards division, 10000 strong,
paraded in front of the imperial pal
ace. At s o'clock the signal was Civ
en- for the departure of the imperial
coffin and instantly the whole body
of trumpeters of the guards blew the
hymn of national mourning in a low
and melancholy tone. Immediately
the casket enclosing the remains of
the dead mikado was brought forth
and placed upon the funeral car, gor-
sgeous with decoration and in front
OF which blaZed the imperial crest of
the chrysanthemum. Harnessed to
the funeral car were the four mandari
ushi, or sacred bullocks, especially Sc
lected according to immemorial GUS
tom for the obsequies of the ruler
who is half god. The first OK was

BOOMING FACILITIES

With splendid success attending
their efforts, the members of the ac-
commodation committee of the Round
up this morning commenced the list
ing of the vacant beds in the city and
have been on their rounds all day.
Every report brought back to head
quarters is to the effect that the citi-
zens are responding much more read
lily than ever before to the appeal
made for beds, but very few refusals
being received.
The city has been divided into six
districts and there is n committee in
charge of each district. The heads
of these committees are Paul Sper-
ry, DR.. w. H Lytle. Prof. A. C. Hamp-
ton, a. j. McAllister, Oscar Mailer
and James Estes. Each is being as
sisted by two other men or women.
All of the solicitors report that
many of the residents are uncertain
as to the number they can accommo'
date because of the contemplated Wis
it of relatives or friends but in each
house where this condition prevails
| is left q card with the telephone
number of headquarters so that the
rooms can be listed IL the relatives oil
friends fail to come.
AS an evidence of the great demand

es 80 blocks and II acres additional.
The lots are on Jackson, Washington,
Wilson and Martin streets. 1t is un-
derstood to be the purpose of the
new owner to replat the lots TO some
extent and TO make extensive i'm
provements in the way Of street grad
ing and sidewalk construction before
placing them on the market The
owners may also construct houses for
purchasers on the installment plan
The Coles addition property is re-
garded as very desirable property for
residence purposes inasmuch as it is
the only north side property remain

sites for those wanting to live in the
vicinity of the branch hospital.

TO IMPROVE COLES ADDITION

To grade the streets in Coles ad-
dition, construct concrete sidewalks
and place that large tract on the
market within a short time is the pur-
pose of Charles Cowen of the Syl-
vester-Cowen investment company
who is now here.
Though no statement from Mr.
Cowen himself could be secured to-
day 1t is understood that he plans to
get operations started this fall If pos
sible. Some time ago the present
holders of the Coles addition property
acquired the same through agreement
with Mr. Leonard the then owner, the
agreement which was filed here bear
ing the consideration of $4,000.

UP-RIVER CITIES WILLING TO INCREASE
TONNAGE IN ORDER TO KEEP RIVER OPEN
Joint Meeting Of Commercial Clubs Appoints Committee Interview
Transportation Company Today-To Guarantee Patronage

With representatives of the Pen
dleton, Lewiston, Kennewick, Umatil-
la, Hermiston, Stanfieid, Pilot Rock.
Echo and Helix commercial clubs and
of the Portland chamber of COM
merce as well as prominent farmers
in attendance, a meeting was held in
ths city last night at which it was
determined to make a concerted ef-
fort to prevent discontinuance OF
the open River boat service as con-
templated. Toward that end a COM
mittee consisting of E. NJ. Slv OF Ken
newick, II. n. Dryer of Umatilla, K. c.
Beach of Lewiston, w. l.. Thompson
of Pendleton and w. 5. Smallwood of
Portland, was appointed to attend the
meeting of the open River Transpor-
tation company in Portland today to
call upon them to continue the ser
vice until November Is and assure
them that a general effort will be
made on the part of the up river cit
les and towns to increase the tonnage
for the boats and to raise by subscrip-
ton, If necessary, an amount sufti-
cient to meet the present obligations
of the company.
Also it was the sense of the meet
ing that the company should employ
an energetic solicitor to work among
the Inland Empire shippers, most OF
the delegates giving their opinion
that the lack of such an agent has
been largely responsible for failure
of the company to make its service 9
profitable one.
Sentiment Is Unanimous.
The meeting here last night wa:
called at short notice when it be-
came known that the company hat
practically decided upon discontinuint
its service to the upper Columbia ant
Snake rivers because of the annua
loss incurred But very few of the
cities and towns vitally interested
were without representation and som'
of these sent messages announcing
their cooperation in the purpose o
the meeting.
The sentiment among the delegate
was strong and unanimous against tn
contemplated action of the stock
holders which was characterized a
an impending calamity to the in
land country. BY the expressions o
| individual representatives, 1t woul
not only mean the death of the. bene
factor which had worked great re
ductlon in freight rates, but 1t woul
seriously retard the work of openin
the Cello canal and dredging tn

ford potent arguments against furthe

LOCAL MOOSERS ENTHUSIASTIC OVER COLONEL

Having seen their leader and heard
from his own lips his abnegation of
selfish interest in his campaign for a
third term in the presidential chair of
the United States. thirty devoted de-
sciples of Theodore Roosevelt return
ed home yesterday afternoon from
La Grande where yesterday morning
the colonel made his only speech in
the state outside of Portland. Like
pilgrims home from a visit to the
holy sepulchre, their faith is renewed
and has made of them zealots for the
cause in which they are enlisted.
DR.. |. u. Temple, local head of the
Bull Moose party and the man who
organized the excursion party to La
Grande, is especially enthusiastic af-
ter hearing Roosevelt both at Port
land and La Grande. He believes
that the colonel has not only put new
life and confidence into his already
loyal supporters by his campaign in
the state but has won many votes
which were before undecided between
himself and Wilson.
"The obvious earnestness and sim
cerity of the man and his intensity
in his purpose" said the doctor this
morning, "were apparent to all and
made profound impression. l came
away strengthened in my belief that
Theodore Roosevelt is the greatest
man in the nation today and is actu-
ated in his present campaign not by
any selfish motive but entirely by the
desire to lead the people who believe
in him out of the darkness where
their blind allegiance to the old par
ties has cast them"

Praise Company Directors.
While deploring ,he condition in
which the company finds itself, the
shippers present We're loud in their
praises of the little sroup of Portland
merchants and public spirited men
who from the inception of the SER
vice, have sacrificed time. money and
energy in trying to make the venture
a success. The blame for the failure
was placed largely upon the shippers
who We're willing to use the river SER
vice as a club to force reduction in
the railway rates yet who had not ap-
probation enough for the existence
| of that club to stand by it after they
had gained the reduction.
Railroads Fought Company.
w. S. Smallwood, former manager
of the company who represented the
| Portland chamber of commerce at the
meeting, told of other elements which
| had contributed to the lack of sue
cess, not the least of which, he said,
! has been the determined opposition
of the railroads and their tactics. Mr..
Smallwood and other delegates pres
! ent charged that the railroads had
actually used threats to try to coerce
wood buyers into shipping by rail- had
| threatened to refuse renewals of land
| leases to shippers should they use
water transportation, and in many
other ways harassed the company in
its efforts to live and aid the inland
merchant and consumer.
Mr. Smallwood also censured the
Portland Oregonian severely for its
attitude in misunderstanding any move
to raise money in Portland to further
the work of the company, charging
that that paper has been willing and
hard working tool of the railroads
and blaming it largely for the lethar'
gy and indifference of the Portland
commercial club when appealed to fol
financial aid.
President Sends Letter.
A letter from President Arthur II
Devers of the company was read a
the meeting outlining the situation
which confronts the company in thi
crisis. He stated that up until Sep

500 and that there had been deficits
every year which the directors hat
been forced to liquidate from thei
own pockets. Mr.. Smallwood, speak
ing from his personal connection will

lutely imperative that the "old guard,

Odd Fellows Give Up Half Of Mrs.
 Austin's Request
Litigation Is Brought to An End Through Settlement
 Out of Court

Attorney F. A. Bartlett, executor of the estate of the late Mrs. Mar garet Austin of this city, has turn ed over to Leopold de Leeuw, treasur- CT of the Odd Fellows Home of Con- necticut, a check for $6.92S.26, in set clement of the bequest of Mrs. Aus tin of the residue of her estate to the home.
 This is but one-half of the residue however, the other half having been turned over to the relatives of Mrs Austin in Chicago. Mrs. Austin was a widow. Her deceased husband was prominent in the odd Fellows, and she left the bequest as a mark of re. spect to his memory.
 Relatives, including brothers and sisters, had threatened to contest the will, which left considerable property to the family of Supt. of Police Flu. gene Birmingham as we'll as the resi-. due, nearly $14,000, to the Odd Eel. lows Home.
 The odd Fellows, however, did no, wish litigation and a. committee han. ding the matter upon investigation recommended a settlement by shar- ing the residue with the heirs. This was satisfactory to the threatening contestants, and the settlement was made with payment by the executo1 of $6,923.26 to the Home and $6,923.2t to the relatives of the deceased.
