Mrs. Sherlock had been visiting at the residence of William Otto Breyraan, ad Joining her home. Upon her return to her house she went upstairs to her bedroom. Soon she heard a noise, as though some, one was walking softly upstairs. She went out to investigate and met the bur glar face to face. Her piercing scream unnerved him, and without uttering a word he turned. Leaping down the stairs several steps at a Jump, he dashed out a window at the north side of the house and was gone before a telephone message was sent to the police. "The entire neighborhood was aroused, and tho Sherlock home was soon filled with friends, anxious to assist in a cap ture and to calm Mrs. Sherlock's fears.

Mr. Rader immediately communicated by telephone with his friends and in formed them of the emergency which con fronted them. Finding that the Council would not assist, it was decided to ob tain 500 more names today. This will place the petition on solid ground again. A meeting of the Municipal League was held last night at which a plan of action for today was mapped out. Francis I. McKenna, father of the ordi nance, Samuel Connell, A. S. Pattulo, Mr. Rader ana others interested In the suc cess of the measure, believe, and do not hesitate to charge that the 1100 names were removed from the petition alter it was filed in the City Auditor's office. They do not charge Mr. Devlin with any attempt to interfere with the petition, but believe that the theft was due to care lessness on his part. Petitions Public Records. The petitions are public records and anyone can obtain permission to examine them by calling at the City Auditor s office. They believe that some person rep resenting the liquor Interests stole the signatures while pretending to examine them. The first Mr. Devlin heard of the charge made against his office was last night. He had heard Councilman Wills talking about the "steal" in the Council, but thought that the petition had -been inter fered with before it reached his own hands. Mr. Rader had not said anything to Mr. Devlin about the missing signa tures. Mr. Rader told the members of the Mu nicipal League last night at the special meeting that the petitions were taken to the office about a month ago in two bundles. Later he said eight or nine sup. plementary petitions containing about 100 names each were sent to the office. Mr. Rader said that when he made the count yesterday afternoon there were in the vault but the two bundles originally filed and two or three of the supplementary petitions, with a total of 1731 names. Devlin Aids in Search. Mr. Devlin was call! up by telephone and consented to make a search for the missing signatures. With Mr. Rader, Mr. Pattulo and several others. he searched the vaults. Besides the two bun dles of petitions, 10 supplementary peti tions were located and about 1S30 names counted. "1 am positive that the petition lias not been tampered with." declared Mr. Dev lin last night. "I received the first two bundles myself and tied them together. If they had been touched, or any attempt made to mutilate them, it would be easy to discover the fact. "Mr. Rader says that when he made the count today he was given the two bun dles and two or three supplementary peti tions. Ho counted 1731 names. When we made the search together we found two bundles and 10 supplementary petitions. They were all together in the vault, and we counted about 1S30 names. As each supplementary petition Is supposed to contain 100 signatures, it shows that his statement is widely at variance with the facts. No Chance for Theft. "Every signature ever filed In our of fice by Mr. Rader is still there, and I know there has seen no theft. Why, it Is ridiculous. If the petition does not have 2400 names now it did not have that number of signatures three weeks ago when Mr. Rader says he counted them. Anyone can see the petitions by calling at my office, but the manner In which the bundles are tied up and the number of supplementary petitions shows conclu sively that the petition is still Intact." "1 know absolutely that the petition has been tampered with." declared Mr. Rader last night. ""There are 1100 names miss ing. I am positive that my count three weeks, ago was correct. Those petitions have been stolen in a daring and well nigh successful attempt to prevent the or. dinance from going to the people. If I had not made the count when I did, our purpose would have been defeated. Some one perpetrated an audacious aiTd desper ate theft, but fortunately the discovery comes in time, we hope, for us to save the petition frem being thrown out." New Engineer at Boise Post. BOISE.

Goode's Successor Not Yet Announced. LOCAL OFFICIALS AT SEA Receive No Information From East ern Headquarters of Portland Railway, Light & Power Co Fuller or Reed? Who is to be H. W. Goode's successor as president of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company? is a topic of speculation Just now. The position is an important one. not only for the company, but also for the public, since the com pany is the biggest public-franchise cor poration In the city. In some quarters It is believed that F. I. Fuller, vice-president of the company and manager of the street railway division, will succeed to Goode's pface, and in others that S. U. Reed, treasurer of the company, is the likely appointee. Local officials say they have no knowl edge as to who will be chosen, since the selection will be made by the chief own ers, B. W. Clark & Co., of Philadelphia, and J. & W. Seligman & Co., of New York, who consolidated last year the Portland Railway Company, the Oregon Water Power & Railway Company and the Portland General Electric Company Into the company of which Mr. Goode was president. The consolidation has been practically accomplished for some time, and the constitueut companies will be dis solved completely within the next 60 days. Said a man prominently connected with the consolidated company yesterday: "The head authorities of the company, in New York and Philadelphia, may be considering the selection of a new presi dent; quite probably they are. But I think I am right in saying that no word of their decision, if they have made any, has come to Portland, nor any word of what they have in mind. It may be that they will pick out a Portland man. But that Is not at all certain, as I view the matter. They have filled other positions in the company with outside men, and might do the same as to the presidency. Nor do I think any local official would feel piqued by not being promoted to that place. t "In Justice to Mr. Fuller and Mr. Reed, It should not appear that either of them expects to be advanced to Mr. Goode's place. Doubtless either would like to be advanced, but they are doing nothing to that end. "A new president may be chosen soon or the selection may be deferred a con siderable length of time. It is not abso lutely necessary that a president be ap pointed at once. The departments are so well organized that the company runs it self, so to speak; I mean that its busi ness Is not dependent on the work of any one man." The choice will be made by the execu tive committee of the board of directors in New York and Philadelphia, the same body that decides upon all important mat ters relating to the company. H. W, GOODE LAID AT REST FUNERAL AT OAKWOOD CEME TERY CHAPEL, CHICAGO. Portland Streetcars Stopped at Time of Services as Mark of Re spect for the Dead Man. CHICAGO. April 3.

Young Man Gives Sample of tiie Work Which Aroused East ern Cities. ST. LOUIS. April 3. On Wednesday afternoon some remarkable demonstra tions were given in public by T. L. Cooper, or the "Great Cooper, as he Is called, who is introducing for the first time in St. Louis the preparations which created a sensation in Eastern cities. The demonstrations took place at Mr. Cooper's headquarters and were witnessed by several hundred people. As nearly as could be learned the facts were these: "At 3 o'clock in the afternoon the young man agreed to show what one of his remedies would do for deafness, and agreed to make any one present who was afflicted with deafness hear again in less than three minutes. There were many deaf people, pres ent and about a dozen of these were given the demonstration, consisting of a single application of one of the Cooper preparations. The hearing of these people was then tested after an interval of be tween two and three minutes. The test consisted of questions put to them in an ordinary conversational tone at distances varying from five to 30 feet. The results were remarkable in the extreme. Some of these people who were treated had been deaf for a num ber of years. When the first question, was asked a look of amazement would spread over their faces and they would forget to answer the question. As the questions were repeated the surprised look would give way to one of de Hcnt. Many were so affected that they burst Into tears and'were scarcely able to answer the question. In no single instance, so far as could be learned, would an individual fail to hear. Many were able to hear a finger snap at a distance of 30 feet. At the request of Mr. Cooper questions were put to them by their friends or by various spectators in an ordinary tone of voice and the questions were readily answered. In giving an account of these dem onstrations. Mr. Cooper said: "The preparation used is not the one with which I accomplish most, as my New Discovery, as it is called, and to which I owe my success, is for the treatment of all forms of stomach trouble and the general breaking down of lie system that follows in the wake or diseases of this character. "The stomach is the seat of a great many troubles, for instance, my rem edy will relieve thousands of people of rheumatism in this city, simply by getting the stomach in working or- Many people seen who were present at this demonstration assert positively that Cooper undoubtedly made these deaf people hear again. ma Maurettus, lot 27, block 13 Albina ' James and Janet Denholm to Abra ham Hlchner, east 73H feet of lot 1. block 71.

Fire caused by a spark from one of the boiler-rooms In the excavation for the McAdoo Tunnel terminal at Dey, Fulton and Church streets, early this morning, did damage estimated at $50,000 and a delay of 30 days in the completion of the work of the huge terminal buildings will result. Five men were Injured during the prog ress of the fire by being caught in one of the deep caissons, two of them so seri ously that it was necessary to take them to a hospital. Those severely Injured are: John O'Hara and Edward Murphy, tun nel workers. The fire started on a high wooden struc ture between rey and Fulton streets.

There were many thrilling rescues and several instances of personal bravery dur ing the progress of Hie fire. Deep down under the ground in the 100 and more caissons which are being sunk for the foundations of the big terminal buildings to rest upon, were between five and six hundred men at work. When It was seen that there was danger of the fire spread ing to all of the engine houses south of Dey Street, shutting off the supply of air pressure which enabled the men to work underground and the withdrawal of which would mean serious danger if not death to many of them, the danger signal was given and the buckots lowared into the tunnel to bring the workers to the sur face. Around some of the derricks the flames raged fiercely and in two instances tho men in charge of the donkey hoisting en gines lost their nerve and deserted their posts, leaving the men beneath the sur face of the ground to their fate. The de serted hoists were successfully manned by volunteers, however, and the men stuck to their posts with the flames roar ing around them until tho last one of the tunnel workers was brought to safety.
