TTIE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 25, 1908. 13 FALLON MAY LOSE SALOON LICENSE Council Committee's Report to Be Unfavorable to North End Liquor-Dealer. THUGS FREQUENT RESORT Testimony to This Effect Given by Police Officers and Citizens. Other Dramshop Keepers Are Exonerated. Tom Fallon's saloon, at Third and Couch streets, where it was proved In court that the. Sellwood Postoffice rob bery was planned by a notorious gang ofthleves, will have to close its doors, If the City Council adopts the recom mendation of its liquor-license com mittee. After hearing sensational tes timony from witnesses yesterday after noon at the City Hall, the committee voted to revoke Fallon's license. Charges against the proprietors of the Armory Canteen, Denny's and the Cir cuit saloons were dismissed. The in vestigation of charges against the pro prietor of the Pup saloon will be re sumed at 10 o'clock this morning. After hearing 'the charges against the several saloonkeepers, the mem bers of the liquor-license committee Councilmen Cottel. Vaughn, Wallace. Rushlight, Wills, Bennett and Drlscoll declared themselves of the opinion that practically all the trouble arising in saloons Is caused by the presence of women. Every member of the com mittee expressed the belief that the proposed ordinance prohibiting women from entering saloons will come very near to solving the numerous trouble some problems now so frequently brought to the attention of the city officials. That an ordinance now being drafted with great care by City Attorney Kav anaugh. Chief Deputy Fitzgerald and Frank S. Grant, prohibiting women to enter saloons, will pass the Council, is predicted by all who have been asked for an opinion. Every one of the sa loonkeepers on trial yesterday ex pressed his desire to have this law, and declared that women are a detri ment to any saloon's business. AVomen Cause All Trouble. "Get rid of the women In saloons," aid Councilman Wallace, "and you will about relieve the troublesome sit uation we are now facing." His senti ment was echoed by all members of the committee, by Judge Cameron, ot the Municipal Court, and by Captain of Detectives Bruin and other police officers who were present to testify. Damaging testimony was given by ' policemen and others against Fallon's saloon, 'which was declared to aave a bad reputation. It was shown that the place had long been a rendezvous for thugs, especially the hobos ana yeggmen, and by J. W. Mitchell, form erly a Government detective, it - was proved that the notorious Sellwood Postoffice robbery gang met and planned' that crime 'there. The mem bers of the gang were captured .and several of them are serving terms in a Federal prison. Municipal Judge Cameron testified, saying that Fallon's saloon had always borne a bad reputation. He declared that it had been a surprise to him how Fallon could retain a license to run such a disreputable establishment. The Judge thought the polico must have been negligent in the matter, oth erwise the saloon would have been closed long ago. Captain of Detectives Bruin, Detec tive Sergeant Baty. Detective Coleman and W. J. Mitchell testified for the prosecution, which was conducted by Assistant City Attorney Grant, and Fal Ion took tho stand to refute the evi dence of those witnesses. He denied everything they had sworn to against him and his saloon. Councilman Drlscoll seemed to favor Fallon during the progress of the hearing and, when the ballot was tak en, did not vote. Charges Fall Flat. The charges against the Armory Can teen saloon, at Tenth and Couch streets, were that the proprietor ca tered to the trade of women, but thi case was exceedingly weak and the charges wore dismissed. Like charges were preferred against Denny's sa loon. Fourth, near Stark street. He was also discharged, the evidence b Ing considered weak. Charles Mays, proprietor of the Circuit saloon. Stark street, between Fourth and Fifth, was also charged with allowing women to congregate In his place ot business, hut upon promising to keep them out in future, he was also allowed to go The evidence in the case against the proprietor or the run saloon. Third and Jefferson streets. Is not all in, but it consists principally of charges that women frequent the place, and that there Is too much noise there quite often. Captain Slover, Captain Bruin, Detective Sergeant Baty and Acting Detectives Kay and Klenlen swore thev had frequently had complaint against the saloon, and Kay swore that the proprietor was fined jr5 once for sell ing liquor to a woman under the. age of 21 years. Further evidence will be Introduced in this case today. Conboy Case Vp Today. The case against J. .T. Conboy, pro prietor of a saloon at Twenty-first and Sherlock streets, will be resumed at 10 o'clock this morning, in conjunction with the charge against the Pup sa loon. During the progress of the hearings yesterday, some of the Councilmen asked tho police officials If the sa loons under Investigation were the only bad saloons in the city, and the opinion of the police was significantly summed up by Captain Bruin, who said: "No, gentlemen, there are other bad saloons, but we picked these aa test cases. We will see what Is done with these, and will probably act accord ingly." BURKHART IS ON TRIAL Result Will Have Bearing on Sales man's Damage Suit. Herman Burkhart, tho traveling sales man, who was snot in the back by Patrolman Suitter three months afro, while- attempting to escape arrest on a charge of disorderly conduct, is being tried in the Municipal Court for his offense. The case Is being closely con tested owing to the fact that Burkhart has a $10.0)0 damage suit pending against the policeman and the decision In the criminal proceedings will have a direct bearing on the suit for damages. Yesterday an hour was occupied "in hearing testimony in regard to Burkhart's conduct before the shooting. It was shown that he went home drunk at day- UghU- met his wife as she was starting out to search for him and commenced abusing her. The police were notiiled and fiultter arrived on the scene to And that the traveling man's wife had taken refuge on a grocery wagon. Burkhart resisted arrest and after he had been subdued broke from the officer and ran. After following him three blocks, Suitter opened fire, wounding Burkhart. As soon as he was able to be about the drummer filed action for damages. Suitter was condemned at the time for shooting a man accused of a minor offense. Delay In concluding the trial Is oaused by Burkhart's efforts to Introduce evidence that would be of use to him in the trial of the damage suit. Authorities will be submitted by the attorneys In volved when the case is renewed today, the prosecution contending that the evidence must be confined to Burkhart's actions leading up to his arrest.

Bids for tho construction of tho Union-avenue bridge across Sullivan's Gulch were opened by the Executive Board at its meeting yesterday after noon, and were referred to the street committee for action. As It Is usual for the contract to be let to the low est responsible bidder, everything be ing regular, It is believed that the Minneapolis Steel & Machinery Com pany will receive the award. The firm's bid is $64,849. The other bids were: Midland Bridge Company, $69,793; Northwest Bridge Company, $64,950; International Con struction Company, S73.560: Burrell Bridge & Construction Company, $67, 780; Robert Wakefield, $67,025; Paquet & uiebiscn, $69,930. The Executive Board took no definite action relative to the East Twenty-eighth-street bridge across Sullivan's Gulch. The officials of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company re fuse to pay anything toward the con structlon of this bridge, and the mat ter is still in an uncertain condition. City Attorney Kavanaugh has given an opinion that the streetcar company can be forced to pay its share for the construction of the bridge. The question was referred to the street committee of the board for further con slderation. Saloons Bow to Reformers. CHICAGO, Jan. 24.
