THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1903. IS OFF FOR EUROPE to consideration, they were not sure that they would receive It In theappolntment of a cl.tlzen who had done so much for that neighborhood. Mr. Curtl3 Is an active member of the Sellwood Board of Trade. In other portions of the Bast Side, the appointment of Mr. Curtis is also men tioned with satisfaction. TO GO BEFORE COUNCIL month, was recommended for Indefinite postponement. The petition of I. Gerlln ger to maintain boxes in a saloon at 361 Morrison fltreet canned a discussion. Ger linger stated thnt the plnce had been built for a restaurant, but It had been rented to H. Clow for naloon purposes. Boxes with doors had been built, and to take them out would moan 'a great expense. "This Is one of the hard places that comes under the ordinance." said FlegeL "If Gerllngcr Is entitled to exemption every other man Is. Gerllnger has no boxes simply rooms with the usual doon?." "Appoint a committee consisting of Messrs. Slgler. Flegel and Zimmerman to investigate the place," moved Bentley. "Excuse mo. My mind Is already made up." said Flegel. "Let the Council make the laws and the executive department enforce them." The motion was nmeniled so as to sub stitute the name of Bentley for that of Flegel and was carried. The petition was then placed on file. The petition of M. Opsdall for a license about the frigidity of the atmosphere, a man asKed me how low the mercury gen erally got out In my country. I told him that It got to the freezing point occa sionally, and we had to put on overcoats." " "It must be colder than that,' he re marked freezlngly. You are so far north of San Francleco that you must have a Yukon climate.' "I told him we had the best climate In the world, the garden spot of the United States, and he took my word for it, but he looked -doubtful. "The Eastern people that I met seemed to know a great deal about the resources, of Oregon, but not a single one of them knew anything about the climatic con ditions of our state. To enlighten them on that point I would suggest that some information about Oregon's climate be given In all the literature distributed in the East- We certainly would get more benefit from It than we are now getting from the advertisement of our resources."

Following is the text of the messages transmitted today by the Marconi system of wireless telegraphy between Cape Cod and Cornwall, England, between President, Roosevelt and King Edward: "His Majesty.

W.

The object of Mr. Pat- CTrvo Montavllla Women Would LlUe to Get Second SlRlit of Seer Who Dffrnuded Tliein of .fl050. STEPHENS SLOUGH BRIDGE , 10 The detectives have at last located De Ainandus, the smooth clairvoyant who re cently defrauded two Montavllla women out of $1050. He sailed for Germany Janu ary 10. The crime that he committed is considered by local authorities to be an extraditable offense, and if, upon investi gation. Governor Chamberlain finds that the evidence is strong enough to probably convict the man after he is caught, he will, "be brought back from Germany to answer to the charge. The case has been in the liands of Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Arthur C. Spencer. When seen last night regarding the matter he said that there could be no question as to the nature of the evidence. "If De Amandus can be brought here," he said, "there is plenty of evidence to convict him. It is only a question of iden tifying the man who has sailed to Ger many as the right man." Detective Cordano, who has been work ing on the case since De Amandus disap peared, thinks there Is no question as to the man's Identity. He has been on his track for some time, but only yesterday received a telegraphic dispatch from New York stating that De Amandus had sailed for Germany. As soon as It was announced that the clairvoyant had swindled the women out of $1030, the case was turned over to the Chief of Police, and he detailed Detectives Ford and Cordano upon it. In the mean while De Amandus. had taken everything away from his rooms and seemed to have vanished. He bad, not shipped his things under his own ame, and there seemed to be no way to ten in v.-hlch direction he had gone. " ' Detctlve Cordano then commenced mKing Inquiry among the draymen, and anally found the one that had moved the belongings of the clairvoyant to the depot. J?rom the drayman he obtained a descrip tion of the man's baggage, and found that It had beep shipped to New York. A tele gram was sent at once to New York, de scribing the baggage and telling the police there to arrest the man that called for It, A few days ago Detective Cordano re ceived a telegram that the baggage had arrived, but that the man had not called for It. Yesterday a second telegram came stating that the owner of the baggage had sailed for Germany January 10, and the goods were to be shipped to him. The telegram was brief, but located De Aman dus so definitely that the detectives can lay their hands on him If they find they are able to 'extradite him from the Father land. The telegram reads as follows: "Amandus sailed for Germany January 10 from Hoboken, N. J.: steamer Graf Waldersee, due Hamburg 20th Instant, un der name of C. A. Hease, second cabin, ticket number 05876. James J. Lougan, Captain Detective Bureau." The officers think the vessel will prob ably be a day or two late, and will decide upon their course of action In time to cable to Hamburg, and get the man be fore he leaves the ship. "By taking advantage of the superstl tl us disposition of the two Montavllla v cn, De andus made them think 1 he could perform miracles. Jet me $1500 In currency," said he, "and I v ill charm it. You can then bury It where you wish, and at the end of a cer tain time -you -win dig It up. and find in place of the paper money a large box of gold." The women were very poor, but be lieved his promise; and by mortgaging their property, borrowing of their friends and reiving and scraping managed to get 51050 between them. Seeing that this was all he could get, De Amandus decided to try his luck at charming the $1050, and suc ceeded in charming it all away. By sleight-of-hand motions he managed to remove the money, and place in Its stead some slips of paper about the size of the bills. He then sealed the envelope and charged them not to open it until it -was time, to dig up the gold. The women then burled their slips of paper under a barn, and the embezzler had plenty of time to get out ofnhe country before it became time for them to be dug up. "I will have that man brought back If there is any chance," said Deputy Pros ecuting Attorney A. C. Spencer yester day, as soon as he was shown the tele gram telling of his sailing for Germany. "Those sort of men ought to be made an example of. He la guilty of the crime of grand larceny and that is an extradit able offense." "Or at least It ought to be." said he, after a moment's thought, "I have not looked Into our treaties with Germany, but I think we will have no trouble In bringing him back, if we can prove that ne is tne right man." -"Well," replied Governor Chamberlain. in response to a question from The Ore- gonlan, over the long distance telephone. "I would have to be sure that he is the man, and that the evidence against htm is euflicient to convict him, before I -would maKe an attempt to bring him back. It Is a large undertaking if there is any chance involved in It," xo ypu uunx ine onense is grave enough to warrant bringing him back?" he was asked. "I certainly do," he replied. "For a man to take advantage of poor women, and rob them out of their last cent is a grave onense. FRED W. GRAVES TO BUILD SIX FLATS FOVnTlAT 3UILDC for H V. CRAVES. H.J. riepry McHiT&cj.

"I want to run the same as the others do. They have their rooms and they like them. If they did not have the rooms is to establish human slavery 40 years after we went through war and human bloodshed to banish this evil from our Nation forever. The coolie contract Is no contract. The essence of a contract Is the fact that it can be broken. The coolie contract Is misnamed, because It makes the man labor whether he will or not. "That Is impossible. There Is nothing on the street but saloons and women. If we abolish the women we cannot run the saloons." "There Is no need of further discus sion," said Slgler.

Riotous soldiers from Fort Slocum created a panic on a trolley car bound for Mount Vernon Sun day morning and nearly murdered the con ductor, Louis Ettlnger. The soldiers, w".o aro members of the "Fighting Sixteenth, United States Infantry, just back from Luzon, were drinking from flasks and having a boisterous time, and one of them made an insulting remark, which Mr. Mitchell, a paesenger, and Daniel Long, a former motorman, resented. Then half a dozen soldiers sprang on Long and Mitchell and kicked and punched them. In the excitement several of the sol diers drew Revolvers and began firing through the windows. Women screamed and fainted, while men ran to the plaV form and jumped from the car. The con ductor, who was trying to collect fares, received a knife thrust in the back and fell to the floor and Mitchell was thrown bodily through a car window. Four policemen boarded the car at Slxtn etreet. When the soldiers saw the po licemen they leaped off and scattered In all directions, but three of them were captured. The prisoners denied they did the stabbing, but after "they had been searched and nothing was found on them, the police picked up a blood-covered knife from the floor, where one of them had dropped it It is believed that Conductor Ettlnger Is fatally wounded. The prisoners were held for trial. Sellwood Pleaned. Residents of Sellwood express their ap preciation of the action of Mayor Wil liaroo In the appointment of Edward D.

MEN'S DISEASES Accurate Treatment In Every Case We wish to make one point distinct and emphatic, the remedies employed In treat ing our patienti are prescribed and com pounded to meet the exact requirements In each individual case. Every patient of ours can rest assured that the treatment he receives is not the "ready-made" kind. If you want such treatment, so to a drug store and buy a patent nostrum. We make a study of every case we treat, note all conditions in the beginning, note all developments as the case pro gresses, and so alter our remedies as to accomplish just what our knowledge and tralntd perception tells us must be ac complished. After diagnosing your case we will know just what you need. We have treated thousands of cases Identical with your own. and many more of a simi lar nature. W. NORTON DAVIS, 31. D. Contracted Diseases To but partially cure a contracted disease is almost as dangerous as to allow it to go untreated. Unless every particle of Infection and in flammation Is removed, the proba bility exists that the disease will gradually work Its- way into the general system. Still greater is the danger of the prostate gland becoming chronically Inflamed, which always brings on partial or complete loss of power. Perhaps 23 per cent of the cases of so-called "weakness" are a direct result of some Improperly treated contracted disease. We have treated thousands of cases of contracted disorders with our system, and have effected a thorough and safe cure In each Instance. There have been no re lapses or" undesirable developments whatever, and our patients have been cured in less time than other nnd less thorough forms of treat ment require m producing even doubtful results. Varicocele We guarantee to "cure varicocele by a method that involves no cut ting, no ligature, or caustic. No other physician employs the same treatment, and- so thorough is our work that there need not be the slightest fear of n relapse Into the old condition. Those who have been long afflicted with varicocele will never realize the Injury it has caused until they feel the vim, en ergy and buoyancy of spirits that a complete cure will bring. "Weakness" "Weakness" Is not a nervous dis order, demanding a tonic system 4t traetment. but is merely a symp tom of chronic inflammation or congestion in the prostate gland. The congestion exists as a result of early dissipation or some Improp erly treated contracted disorder, and requires mainly carefully di rected local measures. By our own original methods, the prostate gland is quickly restored to its original state, which results in full and complete return to strength and vigor; Our cures are permanent be cause the condition responsible for the functional disorder is entirely removed, and we are convinced that " by no other treatment Is a radical cure of this ailment possible. Stricture Our treatment for stricture re moves the necessity for surgical op erations, even In severe cases of long standing. We do not cutting or dilating. No other physician emplovs our methods of overcoming .this disorder, so the service we of fer you is original and distinctive. Do not give up hope because others hav& failed. We will cure you and the cure will be prompt and a painless one. Our treatment dis solves the stricture and perma nently removes every' obstruction from tfce urinary passage, subdues all Inflammation, removes all irri tation or congestion that may exist in the kidneys or bladder, reduces enlargement of the prostate gland and restores health and tone to all organs affected by the disease.
