CHINESE CLOSE GAMES GOVERNING TOXG COMMANDS OBEDIEXCE TO LAW. Chief Cox. Regrets Necessity for Or der, Fearing Discipline of De partment May Suffer. For the ffrst time in the history of Portland there Is no gambling- In Chinatown. This not simply because Chief of Police Cox has so ordered, but because the boss gamblers at a meet ing yesterday afternoon voted to close all games and to make It hot In Celes tial fashion for anyone who "lifts tha lid." The Chee Kungr Tong-. commonly known as the Chinese Freemasons, the governing body in the Chinese colony, met yesterday at 129H Fourth street, decided to abide by the orders of the police, and pronounced dire penalties upon those who do not abide by the order of the meeting. Chin Sin. of 87 Second street, was directed to enforce the order. Sixty-one games were rep resented in the gathering. Lee Foo, of the bt? diamonds, from whose actions in admitting Japanese to his game the present trouble sprung, was present and Is said to have come In for Irate criticism. For Lee is blamed for the suspension of gambling because he barred his doors against Police Ser geant Wanless a few days ago, bringing about his arrest, a protest from - the Japanese, awakened interest on the part of the Municipal Association, attention from the grand jury and the final de termlnatlonu of the administration to palter no longer with the gamblers. Since the Incoming of the present ad ministration the policy has been to al low gambling' among- the Chinese, un der a rigid pledge that men of other nations would not be admitted. This action was taken with the announced purpose of doing away with a constant source of corruption In the taking of "protection money" from the Chinese by officers and others. Chief Cox sal a yes terday that he regretted deeply the nec esslty for taking the action because he feared that the discipline of the depart ment would suffer and that minor cor ruption would creep in sporadically and will be magnified by rumor. fonce omcers in the North End, es pecially those on the first night re lief, have received strict instructions to deal firmly with the situation. Ser geant John Goltz. within whose terri tory Chinatown lies, will have direct supervision of the work, under the orders of Csptaln Bailey. Draw Span May Not Be Floated Be fore November 1, but 3fost of Riveting Is Done and Work Is Being Fashed. "The counter-weights for the lift span of the new Hawthorne-avenue bridge are to be of concrete. The wooden form In which the weight for the west tower is to be cast is nearly ready for the con crete to be poured. The construction of the form for the east tower cannot be- producers have endeavored to keep the movement secret until it has been in dorsed and subscribed to by, the ma jority of the farmers, fearing that the Portland dealers might find means of wreaking vengeance on them for their presumption. However, It has been learned that the producers Jiave sug gested automobile delivery, taking the position that, although the Initial in vestment would be heavier than if horses and wagons were purchased. the greater rapidity with which de- I liveries could be made and the smaller t cost of maintenance would more than make up for the greater outlay at the start. It Is probable that the promoters of the plan will work along quietly for several weeks yet. conducting a cam paign of education by means of letters and personal Interviews, and will then come Into the open with a .call for a public meeting: at which the proposal will be thoroughly threshed out The producers declare that they have been often blamed by the dealers when the quality of milk was brought Into ques tion, frequently without cause, and they propose to deliver themselves and thus become directly responsible to the public It has been suggested that the new organization would undertake to see that the milk and cream which it handles is produced under strictly san itary conditions. The farmers believe that by appropriating to themselves the profits which now fall to the dls- FAMOTJS STAB IN "THE WHITE SISTER" WILL OPEN NEW HEILIG THEATER TONIGHT. ...''

Contractors were at work at this yes terday, a workman with a forge being perched on the highest point of tne tower. The construction of the bridgetender'a house is also being rushed. This house will shelter the motors which will drive the drums around which will be wound the cables lifting the span. Drake C. O'Reilly, in charge of the bridge con struction, said yesterday that with the counter-weights attached, two motors of 126-horsepower each will be able to op erate the span. He said also that the completion Of the bridge and its opening to traffic de pended largely on the weather. "We cannot put In the span until the counter. weights have had time to set," he said. 'and if the weather la bad it will prob ably take longer than If we have a good deal of sunshine. I do not think we shall be able to float in the draw span before November 1. All the riveting of the steel is done. continued Mr. O'Reilly, "except that of the east tower. Of course, there Is some riveting of railing and odds and ends, but that Is a small matter. With the exception of the paving be tween the trusses, the decking of the east and west approaches to the lift span is nearly complete. The decking of the lift span is now being done. The streetcar company has laid Its high-power feed cables under the walk way. At first it was thought these would be hung on the brackets overhead. As It is now they will be out of sight. The trolley wires will be strung on the brackets and the heavy feed wire con nected with them." DAIRYMEN FLAX TO ELIMINATE CITY DISTRIBUTORS.

Coincident with the protests of dealers that there Is no money in handling milk at current retail prices. movement has been started among the actual producers of milk and cream, the farmers, having for its ob ject the pooling of their interests and the elimination of middlemen. Many of the farmers believe that by consoll- ating they could deliver to consumers direct and reap a greater pecuniary reward than they now receive from the Portland distributors. This sentiment made its appearance mong the farmers as the result of the ttempt which Is now being made to are the leaders of Portland merge their Interests Into one huge company. The producers fear, unless the conduct of the proposed company is regulated by ordinance, that they might be at its mercy, and they can see no reason why they themselves should not form and control the company. The distributors sell milk at a little more than twice what it costs them, and declare that this Is not sufficient to leave a reasonable profit over and above operating expenses. It has been hard to convince the dairymen that this is true. Those who have been most active in voicing this new sentiment among the trlbutors, they could more than offset the expense of cleaning up and maintaining- their premises in better condi tion. - Development of the co-operative proposal will necessarily be slow for the reason that the producers are scat tered over a wide territory. City Attorney Grant said last night that, he had learned where the cards announcing the raise in rates October 1 had been printed, and also who had ordered and paid for them. He Is now trying to ascertain for whom this per son was actlnav and hopes to establish also that the dairymen held a meeting at which a uniform advance on a uni form date was decided upon. Dressing and R.e tiring Room at the New Heilig Theater Designed and Furnished by the Olds, Wort man (SL King Store One of the most beautiful rooms in the city, and without doubt the room which will be the most ap preciated, is the women's dress ing and retiring-room at the New Heilig Theater. The design is a composite of Louis XVI and Adams. The walls are done in a color scheme of gray and rose. The furniture, mirrors, electric fitments, writ ing desks, etc., are in white en amel. Carpets are soft shades of green and gray. French windows, looking out upon a . verdant back ground, are treated in a scheme of gray and rose. The woodwork and .fittings in their entirety were designed by our new deco rative manager. This gives an idea of the grade and style of work which we are capable of producing. Parties who are build ing or contemplate refurnishing their homes should inspect this work. You are invited to call and ex change ideas with our critic. OLDS, W0RTMAN & KING.
