TTIE !rOKXTSO OKEGOXIAN. FlIPAT, XOVEHBER 11, 1910, 12 SMUGGLERS GIVEN RELEASE ON BAIL Gladstone and Scheffs, Opium Vendors, Put Up $2250 in Cash. MONEY FOUND IN CLOTHING Men. Found With Trunk IT lied With Drue Brlirvcd hr Federal An thoritic to Be Tart of Organ ized Gin( on Soand. Tbtlr clothlntr loaded with money and able to sreure the aid, of friends on the outside, the opium smuirfriers who were apprehended In Portland Wednesdsr war enabled yesterday to furnish cash Kuaraniees for their appearance befor the United States grand Jury, and were last night released. The preUtnlnary examination of Albert Gladstone. Inadvertently called Gold stone, and Sam Scheffs, his accomplice, was concluded at noon, and the men conducted to the office of United States .Marshal ColwelL As their attorney. B. B. Crawford leaned over the counter, Soheffs waa seen to slip him a roll of bills, and a moment later Gladstone un covered a bunch of greenbacks bi enough to choke a small cannon. The predominant fi cures on the bills were one hundred denominations. Scheffs furnished a FaO rash bail Im mediately after It was fixed by Com missioner Marsh, and Gladstone secured his release at " JO last night by puttinc up VJM. The money used for Scheffs ball waa taken from the clothing of the two c-.en at the County Jail. M hen they were searched the bills were found In neat rolis along the covering of their spinal columns, snd amounted to a total of fcMt. Men Thought Distributors. Gladstone and Scheffs, both of them saying they are engaged In the Jewelry peddling business, axe not believed to be more than distributors for the opium smugglers with headquarters In Seattle and Vancouver. B. C. It la thought that the men have made a business of selling Jem airy among the resorts of the tender loin, and as a side Issue have supplied t! users of the dream-pipe with the drug. Both men are stylishly dressed. rewd and calculating. When arrested they had a steamer trunk full of opium checked to thera and were at the Grand Ventral station to receive It. I'pon their examination Scheffs as sumed the role of the Innocent, and . Informed Federal officers that he had bece-me acquainted with GIndstone some Hire weeks ago at a moving-picture s.iow la Seattle. Going out with Glad stone, the younger maa says they be riir.e chummy and when Gladstone asked If he "wanted to make some easy mnr Scheff says he agreed. Gladstone told Scheff. so the latter says, to go to the Savoy Hotel la Seat t and engage a room. Scheff says he . eured the room and some hours later Giadttore seat an empty steamer trunk to t.-e plae. Iter G'sdstone is ae rw4 hv Scheffs of filling the trunk wt:h what appeared to be "hardware." r--hefs tfi'a aks the officers to believe tut ha slipped the trunk to Portland. b.;ertr.g thu It contained Jewelry that he was expected to peddle out among dealer, faionno and customers from be low the dead line of respectable society. Oplom Rnagh.1 at Helena. Gladstone averred that he had pur raal the opium at Helena. Mont., and. knomlng that dealing In such stuff wss prohibited by law. had brought It to Portland, by way of Seattle. It Is thourht probable that the Fed- 2 era authorities will be able to show that the trunk which contained the drug had made more than one trip to the room at the Savoy Hotel, where It was load e. and that Gladstone and Scheffs were the men woo were In charge of lta ca reer at all times. It is believed that the men are distributing agents for the general headquarters of the smugglers along the Sound. Papers taken from the men at the of fice of the United States Marshal Indi cate that both men are from New York City, and that at least Gladstone has a family residing there. An effort will re made to trace their connection with the entire transaction. They will be under surveillance at all times. Gladstone has been found to have a police record la Fortland. He was fined S and given a to-day sentence oa the rock pile In the Police Court In 130S upon charges of keepjng women for Immoral purpose.

Modjeskl said la Ms telegram that he expected to be In Portland Novem ber IS. when he expected to take up at once the subject of advertising for bids. It la not understood by the Mayor why so many seta of plans and specifications were forwarded. In many Instances, however, various plans, each differing from the others in some particulars, are mad to permit the city to choose between them.

While annexation of Lents district, east of Gray's Crossing, was defeated by a eoaslderabl majority Tuesday, Is leader ef the opBoetUon say they will favor annexation two years hence If conditions are favorable, and that they will oppose the forming of an In dependent municipality, as had been proposed some time ago. There are people la the district, and annexation was urged on the ground that it waa the only way to se cure Bull Run water, lower Insurance hnllp nMiftrilfin.

Xew Municipal Body Will Be Most Important, With Much Power, Mayor Da Not Yet Acted. Appointment of the new Dock Com mission, which Is provided In the charter amendment that has been passed by the voters, must be made by the Mayor be fore the expiration of 40 day from elec tion day. The amendment provide that the Mayor must choose five Commission er within ten day after the amend ment Is approved. The law allow M day for completing the election count and certifying the passage of the amendment. Considerable speculation Is already be ing made concerning whom the Mayor will chose for the positions. The Com mission will have what la believed to be the most responsible positions, wltn tha exceDtion oerhaps of that of the Mayor. In the city government, for the new law Just passed gives them both legislative and executive authority over the waterfront, and permits tnera to spend at their will all the revenue from tiie city docks as wellas to levy, re gardless of the will of the Council, as much as one-tenth of a mill on city property for their official use. Mayor Simon ha given no intimation regarding the selection of the men for the new positions. "I will have the appointments made within the time prescribed by law," said the Msyor yesterday. Inasmuch as the commissioners win ant ba nald anv salary. It Is probable that some difficulty will be experienced In getting responsible men to accept the numeroua responsibilities the posi tions carry. All vacancies In the Com mission will be filled by the Mayor. A soon as the first five are appointed. they will be required to determine among themselve who hall take the one. two. three, four or five-year terms. The Commission will be vested with the power to purchase and otherwise to obtain the use of docks for the city, as well as to aell and lease city property hat cornea under tbelr direction. They will also have the right to make ordi nances regulating the city waterfront property, and these ordinances are to be published with the ordinance passed by the Counrll. BIG MAINS ARE V.AHTED SOnH EAST SIDE FIRST TO ACT VXDER WATER AMEXDMET. Extensive System Proposed at Cot or $300,000 to Remove All Danger of Shortage. The South Esst Side will probably be the first district to take advantage of the provision of the mendment for the extension of water main, just adopted by the people. That district fathered the meaaure. and will now ask that a comprehensive system or rein forcing water mains be provided at once. It will Involve an expense of between 1250.000 and 1300.000 and the displacing of the Woodmere and Wood stock water plants, which now supply those districts. A general plan ha been drawn up for this district. One main will extend southwest from the new Mount Tabor reservoirs to Sellwood. supplying the Intervening territory. Another main will be laid southeast along the Foster Road through the Mount Scott district. Main along the Powell Valley Road and south toward Woodstock ar also part of the general plan, A committee from the Seventh Ward Improvement League prepared the plans, the largest main being 24 Inches In diameter and the smaller being IS Inches. The committee will make an effort to have the principal mains laid next Spring, in order to prevent the repetition of water shortage. Bonda may be Issued to pay for these mains. Negotiations will probably be started to acquire the Woodstock and Wood mere plant. However, as the mains of these plants are all small they can only be used temporarily.

MANY CRIMES ADMITTED Christ Swenson, "Parsonage Rob ber," Tell of Thefts In Portland, Denies Ever Having Been In Washington Town. Absolute ignorance of the theft of a watch in Vancouver, Wash., for which Willi Daake alleged that he had been tortured by police officers. I main tained by Christ Swenson, who la now In custody at Spokane, Wash., and who baa coaf eased to numerous burglaries of the homes of minister here' and elsewhere.

Talbot, who waa robbed of Jew elry and silverware to the value of 1 800 in the epidemic of parsonage bur glaries In this city last Fall, will never see his treasures again. Swenson wa completely Ignorant of street addresses In Uils city, and could not teil where th places were which he had entered.
