BUSINESS IS INCREASING DEFENSE MAKES SHOWING Corbett-Street Property Owners Are Asked to Change Improvement. Physician and fndertaker Tell of Finding; Girl's Heart Abnormally Small and X Evidence of Any Criminal Action. Mrs. Nettie JlalL mother of Vera Hall. It. J. J. Rosenberg's victim, gave effec tively before a Circuit Court Jury yester day afternoon the evidence through which t!is state bases Its strongest hopes of sending the young doctor accused of mal prartlc to the gallows or penitentiary. Mra. Hall's stay on the stand was brief but her story served as a strong climax t the state's caw. She related Incl dents and conversations tending to re move all doubt as to Dr. Rosenberg's unlawful part In the death of the girl. A .id. oddly enough, some of her most damaging testimony against the accused was brought out unexpectedly In the cross-examination. Mrs. Hall was called to the witness stand late In the afternoon and following evidence of very little consequence. Kl mer Erlrkson. the youth responsible for Miss Hall's condition and who took her to the malpractioner's office, went back completely on the stories he flrst related I) the authorities. He told a colorless tale of having taken the girl there to be treated for a hemorrhage of the nose. The effect of his evidence. was to shield Rosenberg in every possible way. Dr. McKay dies Ethic. Dr. Harry McKay, when cross-examined following a description of the au topsy on Miss Hall's body, aided I he state's rase materially by his replies to questions relating to professional ethics. Irr. McKay said positively he would not think of administering an anaesthesia In his private office, as Rosenberg did. snd II, at be always Insisted on the presence of a second physician In administering chloroform or ether. So far as he kne that was the custom of all other reput aiie doctors. Dr. McKay sal. I. Nor did any amount of admit cross-examination ranse htm to modify his statements. Mrs. Hall maintained control of ber--lf by a continued effort, clutching the arms of the witness chair and weeping bitterly at times as she told of the hor rible night she was called from her home at Oregon City to the side of her dead hlld In Dr. Rosenberg's office In South Portland. Toung Krtckson summoned her and met her on the east side of the river, taking her at once to the office but denying, en route, having seen the hap Ir.is girl. "When 1 got to the office." she said. "I saw no one at first. Then the doctor came In and told timer to go out. The doctor came right up to me and said he gave my girl something that hadn't acted Just as he expected. ' ' Mother's Tale Pltlfol. " 'Tell me. Is my little girl all rightr I aked. " 'Yes." he told me, and I felt relieved fr a moment. Then he said, when I was quiet, that she had come up there for an operation and that he had given her an anaesthetic and she wasn't awake yet. "I said. 'My God. if you've killed my litt'e girl then kill me. "He took me Into a room. She was lying on a table. I gathered her up in my arms and biowed In her mouth and rubbed her. There was red blood In her face. I said to get the best doctor In . Portland and bring her to. as she was ' not dead. He said there was no use. ' Then he wanted to know what I wanted done take the girl home or call in the authorities. He said It wouldn't butt him to call. In the authorities Just Klmer. I said to take ber home. "They carried her down to an automo bile and put her In the seat with me end I kept her wrapped up thinking to keep her warm so I might be able to bring her to when we got home. The doctor, on the way to Oregon City, told me to say she died on the way home In Clackamas County so that everything would be In Oregon City." It was while being examined by Attor rey Moody, In behalf of Rosenberg, that Mrs. Hail added her strongest testimony. "The doctor told me to take her home to save the disgrace." she said. "He said he would give me a certificate showing she died of heart disease and that It would be the end of it. He told me the authorities would take the body and keep It in Portland for the autopsy and that I wouldn't get It again. IK-frnso Seeks Pltnl!nl. The taking of testimony In the case aa commenced early In the forenoon. Judge Morrow overruled the motion of Rosenberg's lawyers for dismissal of the rase because of an alleged technical de feat In the Indictment. iharles Hall, the girl's father, was the first witness called by the state. He merely Identified a photograph of her. Klmer Ericsson, the youth In the case, told of his love for the girl and of being out with ber the night of her death. He ald she was taken with "nose-ble,ed" and that he took her up to Dr. Rosen berg's office to get the flow of blood topped. The doctor sent him out for some chloroform, which he secured at directed. He was compelled to await In the outer office and taw nothing of what happened In Rosenberg's private office, so he alleged. Dr. E. A. Sommer. of Oregon City, de scribed the autopsy. He said the girl's heart was abnormally small. He found no evidences of a criminal operation hav ing been attempted. Thomas Meyer, an undertaker, gave similar evidence. At the conclusion of the state's testi mony. Rosenberg's lawyers resumed their attack on the Indictment and asked for a directed vent because of Insufficient evidence. Attorney Moody argued until murt adjourned, and was advised by Judge Morrow that he must occupy only IS minutes of this morning's session In concluding bis address.

The trouble that Is now existing concerning the Improvement of Hall street, where the original estimate was but a little more than 113.000, while the cost of the work reached more than IJO.OOO. has made city officials cau tious In the matter of allowing addi tional work to be done. The Hall street people are threatening to take their case Into court before they will pay the Increased cost of their work. Mayor Simon has been Informed by A. E. Clark, attorney for the Hall street property owners, who have been rebelling at being assessed so much extra for their Improvement, that they would not accept the offers made them to allow the city to pay 25 per cent of the extra work, the contractors to pay an additional 25 per cent, and the property owners to pay the remainder. The only agreement the property own ers will make will be to pay the origi nal estimate, plus one-third of the es timate, and let the city and, the con tractors pay the remainder of the ex cess cost. BREWERS' ACTS LEGALIZED City Attorney ltules on Effect of ''Model' I.lqnor Ordinance Powers of attorney, by which the breweries of Portland control 115 sa loons of the city, removing at will sa loonkeepers and transferring licenses to others, were legalised by the terms of the new "model" liquor ordinance passed at the last session of the City Council and later approved by the Mayor. This Is the opinion expressed yesterday by City Attorney Grant, who. before the orcr.ance was adopted, said that the powers of attorney held by the breweries were of no legal value. Had the Council omitted the pro vision making the powers of attorney effective until December 31. 1912. the liquor license committee of the Council would have had the right to overlook them when In the opinion of the mem bers of the commute a brewery was not acting for the benefit of the city In making a transfer of a license. But the provision slipped Into the ordinance rati ng the powers of attorney legal h.ts taken away from the liquor license commltee much of Its rights In con trolling the saloons which are under the ban of the brewerlea. Missouri Pacific, "Katr," Baltimore & Ohio, Erie and Pere Marquette Plan to Establish Quarters on "Railroad Row." On account of the ever-increasing freight and passenger business In and out of Portland it Is probable that live new railroad offices may be opened on "railroad row" on Third street within the present year, the list of probabilities Including the Missouri Pacific, the Mis souri, Kansas ec Texas, the Baltimore & Ohio, the Erie and the Pere Marquette, to say nothing of the likelihood of the Pennsylvania opening a larger and more attractive place to do business. Arrangements already have been made for the opening of an office by the Mis souri Pacific officials. Announcement of Its location and trie personnel of the office force is expected in a short time. The business of tills road now is handled by the Denver & Rio Grande office, both be ing branches of the Gould, system. Re cently It was decided that the affairs of the two roads shall be separated and William Schinltx. general agent for the Missouri Pacific at San Francisco, came to Portland with the Idea of arranging for the opening of the office here. He also visited other towns In the Northwest for the same purpose, and It Is likely that a chain of offices will be started at the same time. The Pere Marquette and the Erie al ready have freight offices In downtown office buildings, but the volume of their business is increasing so .that they are considering the advisability of obtaining rooms on the ground floor. In this way they will be In a position to compete with their rivals for the passenger bust ness that emanates In Portland. H. D. Henvls, general agent for the Erie at Seattle, was in Portland a few days sgo and spoke of the probability that his company would start a new office in Portland. Practically the same condition prevails In the office of the Pere Mar quette. This system Includes several of big Eastern branches that do consider able business In and out of Portland. When he was here a few weeks ago Joseph Mollroy. general agent for the Missouri. Kansas & Texas road at San Francisco, said that the business of that line had grown so rapidly In the North west that the opening of a branch office here was only a question of time. The Katy, as the road is popularly known. operates about Sum miles of rail In the states named In Its title and in Okla homa, and recently became a part of the Hawley system, which Is closely affili ated with the Gould enterprises In" th3 West. The entrance of the Western Pa' cine Into San Francisco has opened wider field for the activities of that road and makes a Portland office more likely. That the Baltimore & Ohio will enter the Portland office flejd in the near fu ture was the assertion of H. C. PlculelU Pacific Coast agent at San Francisco on bla recent visit to Portland. When The Stomach Stops Working Properly, Because There Is Wind in it. Use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to Set It Going Again. A Trial Package Free. The doctors call it . flatulency, but nnprofeeslonal folks know It as "wind on the stomach." and a most distress ing state of things It is. It is a serious condition of this great motor organ. Always annoying and painful In the extreme, at times often leading to bad and fatal results. The stomach em barrassed and hampered with wind, cannot take care of its food properly and indigestion follows, and this has a train too appalling to enumerate. The entire system is implicated made an active or passive factor In this trouble and life soon becomes a questionable boon. AH this Is explained In doctor books: how undigested food causes gases by fermentation and fomentation In which process some essential fluids are de stroyed burnt up wasted by chemical action, followed by defective nutrition and the distribution through the ali mentary tract of chemically wrong ele ments and as a consequence the stom ach and entire system is starved. Plenty of food, you eee, but spoilt in preparation and worse than worthless. A deranged stomach Is the epitome of evil; nothing too bad to emanate from It. but the gas It generates is probably Its worst primary effect and the only way to do away with this Is to remove the causes Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets go to the root of thie trouble. They attack tha gas-making foods and render them harmless. Fla tulency pr wind on the stomach simply cannot exist where these powerful and wonderworking little tablets are in evi dence. They were made for this very pur pose to attack gas making foods and convert them Into proper nutriment. This is their province and office. A whole book could be written about them and then not all told that might be old with profit to eufferers from this painful disease, dyspepsia. It would mention the years of .patient and ex pensive experiment In effort to arrive at this result of failures innumerable and at last Success. It would make mention of the different stomach cor rectives that enter into this tablet and make it faithfully represent all. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not alone Intended for the sick, but well folks as well; for the person who craves hearty foods and wants to eat heartily and run no risk of bad effects, they act like a charm and make eating and digestion a delight and pleasure. They keep the stomach active and en ergetic and able and willing to do ex tra work without special labor or ef fort. Don't forget this. Well people are often neslected, but the Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets have them in mind. A free trial package will be sent any one who wants to know Just what they are. how they look and taste, before beginning treatment with. them. After this go to the drug store for them everywhere, here or at home, they are 50 cents a box and by getting them at home you will save time and postage Your doctor will prescribe them; they say there are 40.000 doctors using them. out wnen you Know what 1 the matter with yourself, why go to the expense of a prescription?

A summons was sent out for the accused man to go directly be fore the grand Jury. Nelson was arrested a short time ago upon the complaint of Maurene Swope. a chorus girl, who accused him of beat ing her and of stealing her diamonds, given to her by him aa a Christmas present. Nelson waa. fined ISO and went to the rockplle In default of pay ment. From there, he said, he turned over to Welser his Jewelry, valued at several hundred dollars, to pawn for money to pay his fine. He alleges that Weiser secured $110 on the security, paid the fine of 150 and retained the rest of the money. Beautiful Angoras. Persians) and Odd-Colored Thoroughbreds in. Decorated Cages. All kinds of cats are to be seen at the cat show which opened at Meier & Frank's store yesterday morning. Throngs of persons crowded around the cages all day, and a great deal of nterest was manifested In the exhibits. There were 170 entries, which rep resent some exceedingly pretty felines. There are the snowy Angoras, the Per' slans, the silver-colored cats, the large ellow species and the pretty Maltese. There are to be seen many thorough' bred cats which have won prises at pre vloust shows. A feature of the show Is the artistic decoration of the cages.- Most of the cages are lined with a color harmonis ing with. the color of the occupant. A now-white Angora languishes on blue silk cushion, while the cage Is lined throughout with light blue. A large, long-hatred blue, or mouse colored, cat has a cage lined with a drapery with flowers of that peculiar dark blue, while her cushion is of the same shade. - Another handsome rat was seen asleep In a large basket which was artistic In Its be-rlbboned decorations. The wall of one cage Is hung with pink carnations, while one is lined through out with evergreens. "Mike." a trick cat. contributes much amusement for the little ones when his master taxes him from the cage and Induces him to show off his many ac complishments. He sits up and Jumps through the hoop and over the arms of his master. Of no little Interest is the "plonker cat." Cooney, who Is more than 16 years old. having been born In Portland In I89S. Cooney Is a large cat. with large intelligent eyes. He is of Ma.- tese and White Angora breed, and is owned by Mra. M. J. McVey, 1514 Ma drons avenue. The felines seem to take kindly to being exhibited to the public gaze, and although an occasional wail Is heard from some homesick cat, the majority sit and dose or watch the crowds with an unconcerned demeanor. The Judging will commence th! morning, and some prizes will be awarded tonight. There will be many ribbons awarded and some handsome cups, medals and otoer prizes. There will be a lively contest be tween the stray cats for the prizes to be awarded for the best of their class. On the cage of an attract! ve-lookln stray cat hangs a card with the fol lowing Information: "My name Is Muggins. My master Is eight years old. He got me from the waterfront, where I was born, and he loves me as much as It I were a S1000 cat." of Mrs. Bowman are Invited, will be held at the residence, 690 Tillamook street, at 2 P. M. today.

An era of business development that would fall little short of placing Grand avenue in the "skyscraper class was predicted by George T. Atchley, retir ing president of the East Side Business Men's Club, last night, as the assured sequel of the completion of projects now receiving the attention of the club. The occasion was the fifth annual ban quet of the club, attended by 100 rep resentatives of business firms, mem bers of the club and guests, who In cluded leading members of the Cham ber of Commerce, Commercial Club and other Portland civic organizations. The banquet was held at 122 Grand avenue. After reviewing the year s work, air. Atchley said: When we shall have acquired con venient public docks on the East Side, and railroads sufficiently progressive to build for us a suitable freight depot without Imposing impossible terms, then, gentlemen, you are going to see an era or nusiness aeveiuyuicui 111 reaulre little time to put Grand avenue in the skyscraplng class. With Klernanlsm out of the way. who does not forsee the prosperous business future in store for us. Who does not see that this club has a great -work to dor' Mr. Atchley spoke of the friendly re lations of the club with civic organiza tions, and of the achievement of the club in defeating the vacation of East Side streets. Continuing, he said: Two most Important things before this club are the securing of public docks In Central. East Portland and the erection of a freight -depot., which the O.-W. R. & N. Company should have built before. This club Is now lnvestl gating the legal phase of revoking the franchise on East Second street and elvlnlng it to some other road with a common-user clause. The club Indorses the Broadway bridge, put up a fight for closing of the draws, and has se cured permanent quarters. The club took up the subject of an East Side theater, has consulted with theater builders. Is now in correspondence with a builder of Eastern theaters, and has talked with property owners about this theater. The Incoming officers have an Important work before them. The Chamber of Commerce and the Commercial Club are strenuously en gaged In developing the city, the state and the whole Northwest. But in the development and protection of the com mercial Interests of East Portland the responsibility is up to the East Side Business Men's Club. Fortunately vthe club Is vigilant, fearless and powerful. There was only one civic voice of discord In the fight against vacation of streets. The South Portland Boosters were willing to sell the East Side streets for a park. I fear those people would sacrifice their wives' male rela tives on the altar of patriotism In time of war. They are great Jokers over In South Portland and they appeal so I strongly to our sense of humor that we are going to help them get a new bridge down their way." 18 TO VIETOR MEMBERS Clubs Plan Campaign to Swell Rolls of Y.

He says: "I am not opposed to the institution of a commission that will have for its purpose a better understanding be tween public utility concerns and the public" He continues with an explanation that many of the public service com missions already established are com posed of men who have no thorough knowledge of the affairs which they seek to regulate, thereby resulting In friction and misunderstanding. By the appointment of experts on such a board, he says, both the public and the utility concerns will be served to the utmost. John J.
