Lease of the Chambers building at the southeast corner of Third and Alder streets will force four railroad and steamship offices located therein to seek other quarters and will serve to break up -Railroad Kow." by which 'name Third street between Morrison and Stark streets has been known for many years. A large wholesale fruit concern has leased the building and has given the tenants notice to seek other quarters before September 1. The railroads af fected are the Bock Island, the Santa Fe and the Illinois Central, while the PORTLAND AD Cl.rB ME at ' 3 ' . JT' r . m. ' .' - a- II . m. J A Portland and San Francisco Steamship Company also will be forced to move. None of the agents representing tha railroads has found new quarters. The question confronting them is whether they shall seek rooms in. Third street or move to a atreet farther west, where they will be nearer the present center of the retail district It Is prob able that several of them will find quartera as far west as Sixth street. Until a few monthsago the Canadian Pacific also occupied a room in the Chambers building. This office now is In tbe Multnomah Hotel building. Sev eral other roads have considered the advisability of moving into the hotel building. - Should the Northern Pacific and the O.-W: li. dr N. Company desert Third street nearly all the "foreign" roads will be forced to follow them, say rail road agents. Both of -these ltnes have leases on their present quarters ex tending for more than a year. When hese leases expire a new "railroad ." may be erected.

Supplemental orders for equipment placed by tbe Harrlman lines in the last few days, together with orders pre viously given, will require nearly 50, 000.000 feet of lumber, all of which will ba purchased In Oregon and Washing ton. Early orders for freight cars, flat cars, cabooses and other rolling stock taking wood construction will consume approximately SO. 000. 000 feet ot lum ber. These orders are being tilled now and tho stock will be delivered within the next few weeks. The tremendous fruit and grain crop promised" In the Northwest and other territory tributary to tbe Harrlman sys tem, has "demanded additional equip ment and orders have been placed with the American Car Bt Foundry Com pany to supply the necessary can. As in the pre-lous orders, the condition Is attached that all wood used in the con struction bo procured In Oregon and Washington. Exclusive of all steel gondolas and ballast cars, the orders provide for 82'JO box cars and 6fi cabooses to be dis tributed over the Union Pacific. South ern Pacific. 0.-W. K. at. N.. and Ore gon Short line system. Allowing 5750 feet of lumber for each box car, this would consume 47.150.000 feet. Each caboose will require approximately 4000 feet, or 224.000 feet for &6 ca booses, an aggregate of 47.374.000 feet. Lumber required In passenger equip ment. It Is expected, will bring the total consumption up to 60.000.000 feet. The lumber orders will be divided among, the various mills In the North west.

Herman Leve. proprietor o' clen; Ing and pressing shop at 127 Thirteenth street, and Herbert Sewrd. who owns a similar establishment In tho Seward Hotel block, have been cited before the grand Jury to tell the story of their arrest last November by Constable Weinberger on charges of gambling, and their subsequent release, after a visit to the office of John A. 3ettrey. the Democratic nominee for District Attorney of Multnomah County. According to Henry Westbrook, at torney for Lve. who went before the grand -jurv yesterday. Leve declares that it cost them 67. the amount of monev found in their possession when arrested, to have the charges dropped. Grand Jury o Hear Story. The grand Jury was so busy yester day that an audience was not given Leve and Seward, but they have been instructed to appear later. Attorney Westbrook says that Leve s story is that Jeffrey posed as a mag istrate and fined the two Mr. Jeffrey was out of the city yesterday and could not be reached.

A few hours later, when the business rush in my office had slackened, I went to the shop and found Seward and Leve in the back oom. There were no cards on the table, but it looked as if they were settling up. as there was $67 cash in sight. 1 told them to come with me and took them to Jeffrey's office. We decided there was nothing on which they could be held. I went out to serve a paper, leaving them in Jeffrey's of fice. When I returned we held an other conference and Leve and Seward left Jeffrey's office with me. Constable Says He Toole rasa, "Upon reaching the street they told me that Jeffrey had secured $12.50 cash from them and that they were go ing to pay him another $12.50 in a few days. I told them this payment was foolish, but they said Jeffrey had promised to defend them in the gam bling case. Then one- of them handed me $20 and insisted that I take it. I did so. This was after I bad given them back their money. I realize that it was Indiscreet of me to take the money, but they Insisted." The law provides that in case a pub lic official Is convicted of a felony he automaticaly forfeits his office. Con viction would also forfeit Weinberger's right to have his name appear on the ballot as the Republican nominee for Constable at the November election. It would be the duty of the County Court to fill the vacancy till a successor was elected. The Republican County Cen tral Committee would, fill the vacancy on the party ticket in November. QUARRY FORCE WANTD PRISONERS AT LIXSTOS UN ABLE TO SUPPLY DEMAND. County May Terminate Agreement With City Unless More Men Are - Sent to Rockpile, Says Judge. Unless the city authorities find some means of sending more prisoners to the Linnton rock' quarry the arrange ment between the county and city, by which the city has active management of that jail. Is likely to cease, according to a statement made yesterday by Judge Cleeton, speaking for the County Court. A report received from Wil liam Eatchel, superintendent at Linn ton, shows that there are only 24 prisoners working there, while there is accommodation for 72. The prison ers are not turning out enough rock to supply the district. r Kor the last three or four months prosecutions on vagrancy charges in judge Tazwell's court have been waged j under the state law and the prisoners have been sent to Kelly Butte. The re sult is that there are 140 men at Kelly Butte, while only 50 can be worked to advantage.. Many of the prisoners at Kelly Butte have been sleeping on the floors. The attention of the County -Court was called to this fact by the April grand Jury, but the court lias no means of remedying the trouble. ( By the arrangement between the city j and county wleh respect to the Linn- J ton quarry the city supplies the guards and feeds the prisoners. The county; pays the salaries of the guards andiNfcljHu IKUNlrtlCn lUIVIII.U maintains me piani. ine cuy geis -iv per cent of the rock. Judge Cleeton said that unless more prisoners are sent to Linnton the County Court w-ill dis continue the arrangement with the city and work the quarry either with county prisoners or free labor. The County Court has also sent a letter to Sheriff Stevens advising him that the county will pay for three meals a day for only 50 prisoners at Kelly Butte, as this is the largest number which can be worked to advantage. The Sh-lff has been collecting for three meals a day for all the prisoners at tlie butte. , CIGARS AND ROPE. Lynching necessitates pulling on 'a "rope."

ACCOUNTANT PAID $15 DAY Judge Cleeton Avers Ti.a.vors' Money Will Cease to Provide for Investigation Unless Results of Work lo Date Are Revealed. "That letter was not sent with tlie intention of cutting short the work of the expert, but to force the com mittee to order a progress report from whicfc it might be determined whether or not the Interests of the taxpayers would be served by continuing the investigation," said County Judge Clee ton yesterday, referring to a lettet wtilch the County Court Monday sent the Investigating committee appointed by Governor West. In this communication it was stated that the county would pay no further salary to J. M. Willey, the expert working under the committee's orders, after May 31. It was signed by -Judge Cleeton and Commissioner Hart. Expert Receives 913 Dally. Judge Cleeton yesterday afternoor had a long conference with .Expert Willey, at which the question of con tinuing the latter on the county pay roll at $15 a day was discussed. Mr Willey said that he would not submit a progress report unless ordered to, do so by the, committee, and did not state if ha had discovered anything wrong with county affairs. The com mittee has so far failed to communi cate with the County Court. "If a partial report shows that thert is anything which would warrant the continuation of the investigation the County Court will see that It Is con cluded," said Judge Cleeton. "We will ask the Taxpayers' League or some other like organization to take charge of Its completion. My position Is that, in view of the "fact that the expert has already drawn over $1000 from the county, we are entitled to know if he is accomplishing anything. Taxpayers Pay Dills. "It is the taxpayers" money which is footing the bills and If the whole things ends in a fiasco, the blame will be put upon the County Court. We are also entitled to know If Mr. Willey Is a competent man for the Job. If the corrimlttee does not reply his sal ary will cease at the end of the month." The investigating committee consists of C. W. Hodson, A. A. Cunningham and A. Miller. .,, r-rr-n nnilllr Secretary of Panama Exposition Will Bring Announcer Here.
