sent to the border wherever and as
fully as General Funston determines
them to he needed.
Bakers Statement.
Secretary Baker issued the follow
ing statement: In view of the dis
turbed conditions on the Mexican
border and in order to assure COM
plete protection for all Americans,
the president has called out substan-
TALLY all the state militia and will
send them to the border, wherever
General Funston determines them to
be needed, for the purposes stated.
"If all are not needed, an effort
will be made to relieve those on duty
there from time to time, SO as to dis
tribute the duty. This call for mill
tia is wholly unrelated to General
Pershing's expedition and contem-
plates no additional entry into Mex
leo, except as may be necessary to
pursue bandits who attempt out
RACES on all American soil. The mil
itia are being called out so as to
leave some troops in the several
states. They will he mobilzed at
their home stations where necessary
recruiting can be done.
Distribution Not Determined.
Proportionment Of militia which
will actually be sent to the border
has not been determined upon by
the war department. No marching
orders for the new forces have been
issued. They will not be assigned
for border duty until mustered into
the federal service.
Even when mobilization is COM
pleted, such units will be ordered
south as Gen. Funston desires to fill
the gaps in his 18O0-mile guard line.
The remainder will rest on arms at
the states mobilization camps for
the present.
Bitter Against United States.
Oficial reports from many quar-
ters show that flame Of popular
feeling against the United States is
being kindled throughout Mexico.
Apparently it is being done with the
sanction of Gen. Carranza, for the
act in many cases are those of his
authorized military or civil agents.
From Jaurez to the west coast of
Mexico posters have appeared, call
ing the people to arms and asserting
that the United States is preparing
to hurl it's armies into Mexico. Cha
otic conditions prevail everywhere
Clashes such as that between Mexi-
can troops and American bluejack-
cts at Mazatlan yesterday show that
relations are strained to the break
ing point. The act of subordinate
commander anywhere may bring on
fighting that will result in war.
So far as officials here are aware,
Gen. Carranza is taking no strong
measures to curb his soldiers and
people. Upon this fact, many of them
found their belief that he is deter
mined to force matters to an issue
unless the American troops are
withdrawn. Neither state depart
ment officials nor members of the
diplomatic corps here have been sat
isfied themselves as to Carranza's
motives.

Indebtedness Is
Said To Be $lO,OOO,OOO,OOO

London, April 4.-Introducing the
new war budget in the house of com
mons today, Reginald McKenna, chan
.eelIor of the exchequer, said he assumed
the war would last "at least during the
entire financial year" which ends
March 81, 1917.
The budget estimated that war ex-
penditures would total $25,000,O0O a
day. Great Britain, it was stated, had
assisted its allies by loaning them
81 500, 100000 during the year which
ended March 81,
British indebtedness was figured at
$40. 700, 100000. The budget totsled ST.
$40 600, 600. Revenues from all sources,
it stated, were estimated at sl,6s5 ,OO0,-
900. Last years deficit was S56,Ooo,'
600, made up by borrowing. An in
creased deficit would be inevitable, Me
Kenna declared,
"Great Britain, however. said Me
Keuna, "begins the year with a sub,
stantial asset consisting of unrealized
securities recently modified. "
MeKenna's figures staggered the
house Of commons. The national debt,
he pointed out, had nearly triplcd
since the war began.

TOURIST DEPARTMENT
FAILED TO ELECT
Attendance Was Light and
Selection of Director Was
Put Of a Week

The tourist, convention and publicity
department. of the Commercial Clnb did
not elect director for the coming
year, at the meeting called at the Com.
mereial club last evening for the very
good and sufficient reason that not
even the traditional corporate guard
was present
However, the few that did respond
to the summons, gathered itself to-
gether into a cosy group and talked
over the coming Cherry fair, Cherry
queens, the trip to Coos Bay, and the
Cherrian trip to Portland during the
Rose Festival, June 7-S.9, and other
affairs.
And then to enliven the few faithful
ones, Mrs. Anita Valentine, represent
ing the Rose Festival association of
Portland, told of the plans of the Port
land folks by which quite a number Of
the larger cities on the coast would be
given the privilege of competing with
Portland in electing the Rose queen, at
so much per vote, real money. AS an
extra inducement, it the candidate of
any of the small cities failed to land
the prize a consolation was offered in
the way of permitting the small town
candidate to become one of the six
maids of the Queen, providing of course
that the city was one of the six send
ing in enough money from votes to be-
come entitled to the honor. Mrs. Val
entine said Eugene, Corvallis, Albany,
Pendleton had already nominated their
queens and that klamath Falls, Marsh
field and other cities would undoubted-
ly come in. With the expenditure of
several hundred dollars each and the
money sent to Portland, these cities
would be pretty sure TO land maid
for the queen, and her costume would
be thrown in for good measure.
Although the number attending was
but ten per cent of this department, Mr.
Deekabach was placed in nomination
for the coming year as director. Mr..
Deekabach side-stepped, stating he
thought others should come in and take
an active part in the management, as
the director of this department would
have the full direction OF the coming
Cherry fair.
Notwithstanding the small attend
ance, the affairs of the department and
its coming problems were thoroughly
discussed, and in order that others Of
the department might have a chance to
express themselves, the meeting ad'
iourned to next Monday evening.

FLAX MILL AT PRISON
HAS NARROW ESCAPE
Sparks From InCineratOr lg-
mite ROOf---Inmates Gnggs
and Garrett Subdue 1t

Sparks from the garbage incinerator
on the north side Of the flax mill ig-
nited the roof Saturday evening, April
/, and serious conflagration which
would have entailed heavy loss to the
institution was averted only by prompt
and heroic action.
About 1880 p. M, while making his
regular rounds, Night Watcnmln Wor-
den observed sparks falling from the
roof onto the floor of the flax mill,
and phOnei Deputy Warden Sherwood.
Mr. Sherwood started on a run for the
gate. C. H. Griggs and Dick Garrett,
TRUSTEES in the guards dining room, on
being informed of the fire, sprinted
after the deputy warden and left him
in the rear so quickly tnat he had to
look twice and then pincn himself TO
make sure he was not standing still.
Griggs, not troubling to wait for the
gate to be opened, bounded up the steps
to the guard tower and took the jump
from the top Of the wall-about eign-
teen feet-lit running and was on top
of the mill playing a stream from a
garden hose on the burning roof before
the others arrived with the fire hose.
After pnoning the deputy warden,
Warden Worden with Chas. Wier and
A. V. Wallin, two night men at the
pumping station, proceeded TO get out
the nose wagon and run L line OF hose
from yard hydrant to the fire.
1t was fortunate inded that lust
beneath where the roof was burning
the concrete floor had been swept clean
of dust and line. Had the fire started
ten feet on either side tne falling
sparks would have ignited the big piles
Of tinder-dry flax and the mill would
have gone up like a powder magazine.
Warden Minto has prepared u mem
orandum of the prompt and heroic ac-
tions of Griggs and Garrett, which will
be presented to Governor Withyeombe,
urging some suitable recognition of
their services.
A watchman has always been kept on
the roof near the incinerator during
tine day, but as he has always watched
the north slope and the sparks causing
this fire having settlpd on the south
slope, beyond his range OF vision, Dep
uty Warden Sherwood has placed a
second man further back 10 watch for
fires.

Stock Market Strong
. But Prices Irregular


New York, April 4.-Fhe New Yorl
Evening Suns financial review today
said:
Stocks moved irregularly throughout
the greater part of the session and spe-
eial issues developed further strength
while others became reactionary. Br
the undertone was fairly strong and
the movement as a whole was about as
might have been expected as 4 result of
many uncertainties coupled with yes
terday's short coverings and pool aetiv-
tiles.
So much of the preceding day g bust
ness was confined TO ISSUES that banks
insisted must be bought for cash or
upon excessive margins that few per.
sons expected immediate continuance
of their improvement, realizing that (;
sharp turn up not supported by public
buying would invite realizing and th,
tributing short selling.
The foregoing apparently happened
IN few slightly speculative favorites
and the resultant reeessions did not
alter the general situation much one
way or the other. When certain reeep,
favorites showed signs Of tagging, 9th.
ers were taken up.
The feature of the trading was in.
creased activity at the outset in a mum.
Der of miscellaneous minor industrials
which have not yet won a substantial
following. The same disappointing
market that has prevailed for days past
was characterized in railway shares
which were SO duh that they failed ia
indicate any general tendency.
Reactions in the early afternoon ran
to three points in Crueible steel, Indus.
trial alcohol and Zine issues. while spe.
cial strong features in the forenoon
lost q point or so.
