In the latter month they caused her to be arrested on an insanity charge and committed to the insane asylum. At that time she had $100 in her purse which .she said they appropriated. She testi fied yesterday in a convincing intelligent manner and snowed no signs whatever of mental .weakness. Her mind, she said, was affected by the medicine she received at the home of the Hoods. Miss Hardman especially testified that in October, 1901, she was pursuaded by Hood to mortgage her farm in. Linn County, worth $3200, for $1200 and gave Hood $600 of the money. He promised to repay the money, and to secure the loan by a mortgage on his farm in Linn County, but never executed It, and never returned the. $600.

They bought toys for the children with her money. "When she was induced to borrow $1200 on her'farm she said, Mr. and Mrs. Hood suggested to her what to say when she went to get the money, that she desired to lend, it to her brother to buy a farm in Eastern Oregon, She drew $600 out of the First National Bank in Albany and gave it to Hood. She bought goods in the stores for them, clothing, watches, etc., and also a buggy. They appropriat ed money received from the crops taken off her farm. Out of $1300 she received but $33. Hood sold a horse she owned for $20 without asking her permission and kept the money. They went to her pocket whenever they pleased. Hood did not work but they paid their bills with her funds. The $1200 disappeared in 23 days' time. Hood testifying in his own defense de nied having ever received $600 from Miss Hardman. He said he knew she arranged to borrow $1200 but did not know how much she received because he was not present when she drew the cash. Ho admitted that she made him and his wife a few small presents, and said his wife and Miss Hardman purchased the buggy together. He denied that Miss Hardman bought ' the furniture, or that they re ceived $100 from her. He told of the doc tors who attended her, and said he and his wife always treated her well.

Raw Recruits Drilled Preparatory to Duty at Lewis and Clark Expo sition Grounds. A dress parade led by the Chief was tho most notable feature of police work in Portland during the month of May. It was very quiet along criminal lines,xand this Is regarded among officers as the calm before a storm. Only 550 arrests were made. It is expected that perhaps June will more than make up la work what last month lacked. The department was furnished with 40 new patrolmen during the month, and as it had been decided to give a parade of the policemen and firemen, the. "raw re cruits" had to be drilled, as well as the older officers. This task devolved upon Captain Moore, of the first relief, who is the drlllmaster of the department. After the exhibition he was personally con gratulated by General Charles F. Beebe for his splendid work In handling the police. There are still some people who drink liquor, for the records of Captain Grltz macher show that 230 persons were ar rested on charces of drunkenness. Prac tically all of these were discharged by the Chief and not sent into court. While comparatively few arrests were made, much work was done in drilling the patrolmen for parades. Instructing them along special lines for the Lewis and Clark Exposition work and perfecting plans for the policing of the city during that period. Captain Slover, commanding the Expo sition Barracks, and the police in that district, completed his plans for handling the vast crowds that will visit the grounds while the Fair Is in progress. Four burglars were arrested, and 11 burglaries were reported to headquarters. There were 130 wagon calls. There were no disastrous flres. There were 25 arrests for assault and batten, showing that the fighting spirit is still with humanity. Detective Joe Day traveled about SOW miles during the month. He brought a prisoner back from Pennsylvania, and Is now In Buffalo. N. Y., for the purpose of returning another one. Special Policeman Bulger beat an aged man nearly to death, thus bringing into prominence once more the special force. Confronted by the Police Commission with a trial on the charge of brutality. he handed in hia resignation, and with tho exception of two charges of assault and battery, he Is free from trouble over tho matter. The Chief of Police Issued a letter to the public requesting assistance in hand ling criminals during the Lewis and Calrk Exposition. PERSONAL MENTION. Mrs. Charles E.

DRIVES FACTS NOME Mayor Williams Speaks to an East-Side Audience. GREETED WITH APPLAUSE Reviews His Administration and An swers All Allegations of His Op ponents With Iogic That Is Convincing. Mayor Williams last night addressed an audience of between 200 and 400 at Burk hard Hall on the East Side, and for nearly two hours held the closest attention. Anybody could readily see that It was an outpouring of the people by common im pulse to listen to the issues of the cam paign as set forth by a man of National reputation and ability. It was plainly evi dent that there had been no attempt to' pack the hall, and there was a noticeable absence of all citizens except those be longing on the East Side, and legally en titled to vote In the Eighth Ward. By actual count, there were 19 minors present at the meeting, and an even dozen of the fair sex. The rest were presum ably voters, and that they were heart and soul In sympathy with the speaker was- plalnly manifest, and when Judge Will- lams referred to his long and honorable political career, and enumerated the im portant state and National offices he had held during the four-score of years that marked his life, there was not a person present who was not proud of the, fact that a man of such attainments filled the executive chair of this municipality. The Mayors defense of his admlnlstra tlon was powerful because It dealt only In matters that were of public record; It was convincing because it was based upon truth, and there was not a person within the sound of his voice that, did not feel the truth of his remarks, and realize that he had been foully slandered when It was charged that he had manipulated his of fice for personal gain In any form. C A. Bell, a young man who had known Mr. Williams for many years, and who had often listened to his speeches as boy from the galleries of halls, presided at the meeting, and Introduced the Mayor in a few well-set words. Greeted With Cheers. As Mayor Williams came forward he was greeted with prolonged applause, and It was some minutes before he was per mitted to proceed. "I am the candidate of the Republican party for Mayor," he, said, "and I am such candidate be cause I have been nominated by the republicans of this city at the prl maries. I made no effort to get the office; I solicited the vote of no pan or set ol men; i am not the nominee of any boss, and I remained in my office throughout the day the primaries were being held and, in spite of all oppo sition, and the strenuous efforts that were made to defeat jae, I was placed at the head of your municipal ticket by an overwhelming majority. Now, jf the primary law means any thing, and if there Is any integrity attached to It as a law. It Indicates that I am Justly entitled to the vote of every Republican of this city. Each voter at a primary election Is required to register nimscif cither as a Rcnub llcan or Democrat and vote at the pri maries accordingly. That is the spirit of the primary law and every intelli gent man knows that If the Demo crats had a majority In this city they would urge all Democrats to support tneir party nominees; but, knowing they have no show upon any such hypothesis, they arc urging Republi cans to disregard their party obllga Hons and vote the Democratic ticket. The primaries Involved an expense of $4200 to the city and If the Republicans do not stand by their nominees the pur pose of the primary law Is defeated and an unnecessary cost has been thrust upon the municipality." After referring to Dr. Lane's record as Superintendent of the State Insane Asylum and his extravagant methods while holding that position, not forget ting to call attention to the severo criticisms that had been cast upon Lane's management of the institution by Governor Ponnoycr. Mayor Williams compared his own record with that of his opponent, enumerating at consid erable length the Important positions he had held, from a Judgeship in Iowa to Chief Justice of Oregon; Attorney General of the United States; member of the High Joint Commission that was selected by the United States and England at the time the Alabama claims were adjusted, and various other Important places. Mr. Williams contin ued: Stands on His Record. "I stand on my record as a private citizen and as a public man, and am willing to be Judged by that record. think that the offices I have held Indicate that I have sufficient ability to manage the affairs of Portland. Mr. Lane said the other night that he had talked with old settlers and found out that Williams was an honest man, but is surrounded by a dishonest lot of men who control him. If this election could be decided by the votes of the old settlers of Oregon, there could be no question about the result. but many strangers have come here in recent years, and they may be some what influenced by the lying statements of a certain evening newspaper. I am not responsible for the acts of the City Council, because I did not appoint them you elected them to office: but I am responsible for the Executive Board, and they are the ones that Dr. Lane refers to when he says that I have surrounded my administration with dishonest men, and whom the lying newspaper "mentioned has implied are grafters. Now, let us see how many of them are embraced in that category: There are General Charles F. Beebe, Whitney L. Boise, Pro fessor Ed. D. Curtis. William Fliedner, Rodney L. Glisan. Henry W. Goddard. H. C Wortman, Joseph Weber, and Slg. Sichel they constitute the Executive Board whom I appointed, are men who pay taxes upon more than $10,000,000 worth of dty property, and I challenge any man to point to a single member of the Executive Board and say he has been guilty- of any corrupt or dis honest act." Enthusiasm Prevails. The most Intense enthusiasm prevailed while the Mayor was grilling those who had resorted to mendacious methods in criticising his administration, and as the name of each well-known citizen constl tuing the Executive Board was pro nounced. It was greeted with rapturous applause, and It was saveral minutes before Mr. Williams could continue. "Those men are part of the administra tion," said he; "they are the grafters that are alluded to by Dr. Lane, and I challenge him or anybody else to point out 14 more honest or more able men in the community than those comprising the Executive and Water Boards of the dty government. The Mayor pleaded guilty to the charge cf being an old man. but Insisted that' be was Just as able to fulfill the duties of the office now as at any time of hlsllfe. and during rhe three years of his In cumbency of the Mayor's office, had done-j more work than any five of Ms ars4- effect slmutaneeualy with his election, and aH the a-Kltu4tnous questions Ind- aent thereto had cose up for considera tion during his administration. No Discrimination Used. 'In the appointments to office -that de volved upon me." said he. "I made no discrimination between the Simon or Mitchell elements of the Republican party, and endeavored to break down the foolish factions. The civil service sys tem, for the dty government was adopted also about the time I assumed office, and under Its provisions the relative merits of more than 500 men have come up for consideration. I am chairman of that commission, and a great deal of work devolved upon me In consequence." The Mayor then told about the different municipal boards of which he was presi dent, with their numerous sub-committees of which he was chairman saying. among other things, that he was legally entitled to $800 a year as pay for a secre tary, but that he save a messenger $25 & month and turned the other $SX a year back Into the treasury, and that he was allowed $600 a year under the secret- service fund, the only portion of which he had paid out being a small amount paid to a spedal officer while the President was visiting the dty. the remainder being covered into the dty treasury. He stated also that the record showed that during the past three years there have been from five to 20 times as much street Improvement as any three years of the history of the dty. "This record shows,' said he. as a defiance to the claim that he was too old, "that I have done as much work as any man could do who was elected Mavor." He referred to the support of the Liquor Dealers Association, and said they were doing so of their own voli tion. "We have both been persecuted and denounced by this so-called Muni cipal League." said the Mayor, with In dignation plainly In evidence, "and I .suppose tho liquor dealers support me upon toe theory that a 'fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind. Many of them are heavy taxpayers," he con tinued, "and I know that three or four of them pay 20 times as much taxes as all these Municipal League fellows put together." Great applause greeted this remark, and when the Mayor re ferred in sarcastic tones to the support the saloon men had accorded Sheriff- Wood and District Attorney Manning two years ago, and how the Muni cipal League had then stood hand In hand with the liquor men and Demo crats to elect those officials, it was a shaft that struck home with a ven- geunce. Toe whole scheme of trying to elect Lane was a. plan of the Democrats to get control of the state politics and put Chamberlain in office agiln, ac cording to Mayor Williams, and there was no doubt the Municipal League would join bands with the saloon men. tho Democrats or anybody else to bring about such a result. Talks of So-Called Scandals. All the various so-called scandals yere placed under the limelight of me Mayor's logic, and when ne baa nn- ished with the explanation of now tney had come to be connected with the ad ministration, anybody could see that he- was no more responsible for them than the man in the moon. He declared his intention of upholding Chief of Police Hunt because he knew that he was an honest man. and because he knew there had been no grafting while hi. held office, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding. He denounced puDiic clamor in unmeasured terms, and said that as long as he was positive a man was honest and trying to do right, ho would uphold him under all circumstances. I nm an Independent man," saia ne. ana I am swayed neither by polltldans nor nreachcrs. He closed with. an eloquent rcierence to hi Rcaubllcanlsm. saying that he be longed to -the narty at a time when it tried men's souls to be a Republican; that he was supporting Abraham Lincoln ana fighting for his prindplcs at a time when th crondfather of the Democratic candi date for Mayor was supporting Jeff Davis and flchtinc for slavery. . Mayor Williams was apparently as fresh when he concluded as at tne ume ne com menccd his masterly effort, and his vital lty under the circumstances was a mat ter of ccncral comment. Frank Bennett, Republican nominee for Councilman from the Eighth Ward, also made a few remarks, which were wcu received, and Judge Hcnnessy, the well known vocalist, rendered several comic sones. The evening's programme was Inter spersed also by several political songs from the Lewis and Clark quartet, while a brass band enlivened things prior to the meeting. Saturday Children's Day.

FORM S COMBINE Paper Mills of Pacific Coast Have Been Consolidated. UNDER ONE MANAGEMENT Columbia River Paper Company and ' Crown Paper Company Join Hands and Now Have Larg- est Concern la West. Consolidation of the Columbia River Paper Company, of this dty, and the Crown Paper Company, of San Francisco, has Just been effected with a capital stock of J1.CW.C00. Tho mills of the former are located at La, Camas and Warrendale. and the Oregon company also owns 25.000 acres of timber land in the Eastern part of Multnomah County. The Crown Paper Company's mill Is situated at Oregon City and this com pany also owns timber and water frontage in the Eastern part of Multnomah Coun ty and a bag factory In San Francisco. All, the property of both concerns 13 In cluded In the deal. The mills at Oregon City and La Camas are operated by water power, and It Is Intended to enlarge the water power capacity and the mills which may lesson the cost of production somewhat. Matter of Interest. The consolidation of these companies is a matter of much Interest to the news papers of the Coast and others who deal In paper. The Columbia River Paper-I Company has Just completed a new mm which - contains the finest machinery of the kind !n the world and the consoli dated corporation is In every manner equipped to do a most extensive business. The new company will be known as the Crown Columbia Pulp & Paper Company. with Its principal office at San Francisco. The president Is S. D. Rosenbaum. of New York and San Francisco, who Is also president of the Florlston Pulp &. Paper Company, of California. F. W. Leadbetter, the proprietor of the Colum bia River Paper Company, is the first vice-president. He holds the largest In dividual Interest in the new company. L. Schwabacher, the secretary-treasurer and general manager holds the position in the Florlston Pulp & Paper Company. Largest .West of Chicago. This consolidation places under one management by far the largest pulp and paper plant west of Chicago, the mills having a combined dally capacity of 110 tons, and with the Improvement in con templation can be easily increased to 150 tons dally. In addition ' the com pany's mills are so located .that danger from flood or Are is minimized so that one mill could be destroyed and the business could he handled by the mills remaining. This is a great consideration to dally papers, as paper mills take years to construct, and in case of fire or flood with only the one mill, customers might suffer. The Crown mill makes the "wrap ping paper used on the Coast, and lias a capacity of 20 tons daily; the Columbia mills make news paper, with a. capacity of 60 tons daily. The Florlston mills, un der he same management, make wrap ping and tissues, 30 tons dally. W. P. Hawley. of Oregon City, who Is largely interested In. the Crown, Paper Mill, will be the resident manager. George W. Joseph represented the San Frandsco4 company as attorney.
