TFTT5 MORNING OREGON! AN- SATURDAY, JULY 6, 1912. 14 MEDICS SEE TESTS OF PHYSICAL ART Tri-State Doctors Enjoy Smoker Closing First Day of Annual Meet. SESSION IS LIVELY ONE Crossed Eyes, Baby Diseases and Protection Against False Charges of Malpractice Discussed. Convention Ends Today. Gray old medicos stood up and yelled and waved their hats and waxed en thusiastic last night at the smoker which closed the first day of the tri- state medical meeting, when wres tiers writhed and twisted, amateur pugilists mixed with good-natured ferocity" and doctor-vocalists sang old-fashioned songs for their amuse ment. Fully 260 persons atended the smoker. George McCarty. welterweight cham pion of the Northwest, and Dr. B. E Loomls were first on the card with a wrestling match. Each took a fall. Neal Malarkey, the boy who broke his father's ribs in a boxing match some time ago. and Ed Johns then boxed four rounds. Johns was light weight champion of the Northwest in 190S-7 and his experience won from Dan Halarkey's boy. Dr. C G. Sabin, of Portland, fought six rounds' with H. M. Butler, ex-director of the Chi cago Athletic Club and then Dr. E. A. Kommer and Dr. Arthur Yielding, both of Fortland, stepped over the theoret ical ropes for a four-round battle to decide the heavyweight championship of the convention. At the close of the third round Dr. Sommer refused to fight any longer. In this manner, and with refresh ments, did delegates from Washington, Oregon and Idaho "top off" the first day In Portland. Two hundred dele gates had registered at the Masonic Temple late yesterday afternoon for a meeting which was full of discussion of vital topics. Medical reciprocity, bringing about the formation of one board for all three states; protection tf physicians against mal-practice charges by the state societies and workmen's compensation law similar to that of the State of Washington were meas ures which met with general approval. A motion byxI L. Love, president of the Washington society, to substitute a Northwest society for the Trl-State League secured no support. Visitors Tour City, "immediately at the close of the af- ternoon session at 6 o'clock members of the Portland lodge brought their cars to the liasonlo Temple and gave visiting delegates a tide over the city. At 9 o'clock the convention opened with a business meeting of the state aooletlee and at 10 o'clock there was a general session In the north assem bly room, with Dr. TV. F. Howard, pres ident of the Idaho Association, pre siding and Dr. M. B. Marcellus, sec retary of the Oregon Association, act ing as secretary. Dr. W. T. Williamson, of Portland, delivered the welcome address and Dr. C A. Emith. of Seattle, responded. They were followed by the presidents of the three state societies. Propositions for the dissolution of the trl-state organization and the for mation of a Northwest Medical Society were made by Dr. I L. Love, the Wash ington president, in the opening presi dential address. The convention de cided to retain Its present organiza tion. Changes in the medical laws in each of the three states in such a way that one medical board can handle the affairs of the trio were advocated by Dr. W. F. Howard, president of the Idaho State Society, and the presi dents of each state society were in structed to take steps toward bring ing this about. Medical reciprocity In the Northwest is one step toward reci procity throughout the United States. Protection ia Wnnted. Dr. E. A. Sommers, of the Oregon State Society, took up the question of protecting individual physicians from unjust accusations of malpractice. He brought out that many cases were brought against medicos In bad faith and advocated that the tri-state or ganizations do something to remedy the situation. In the afternoon the convention was divided into two sections surgical and medical. Five papers on technical sub jects were scheduled to be read in each section, but three of the doctors did not appear. Dr. I. P. McCalla, o Boise, Idaho, who was to speak on "Hirschsprung's Disease;" Dr. Louis B. Wilson, of Rochester, Minn., and Dr. Thomas Coe Little, of Portland, were the three absentees. Dr. Little's pro posed paper on rheumatism of the brain or "Cerebral Rheumatism and Chorea" had aroused considerable curiosity among the physicians pres ent. In the medical section a number of things comprehensible to laymen were brought out In the different papers. ' "Contrary to the general opinion among mothers - and others who have charge of children. Infant diarrhoea is caused by unclean food and drink," said J. B. Manning, of Seattle. "They do not recognize that' impure water and milk and unfit food causes this disease, which is the most prevalent among young children. It is absolutely necessary that a victim of diarrhoea be refused food while affected." Dr. Manning was supported in bis talk by Dr. Creadlck, of Portland, and Dr. Hicks, of Tacoma. "Convergent squint or plain cases ot crosseye are common among Infants under a years old," said Dr. J. I. Me CooL of Portland. "This affection fol lows whooping cough, infantile para lysis and other diseases of early child hood, at times without apparent rea son." Croaae Byes Dfaeoaaea. It was the general opinion of these physicians who discussed affections of "crosseye" that it could be cured by exercises. By use of the stereoscope and other Instruments which will cause the child to move its eyes In the right direction convergent squint can be corrected. This subject was dis cussed by Dr. Arthur Burns, of Seat tle. Dr. A. C Veasey. of Spokane, Dr. William Houte, of Portland, and Dr. J. R Brown, of Tacoma. Dr. C. 8. Wilson, of Tacoma, opened a discussion on the "diagnostic value of presenting symptoms." ' which elicited a number of divergent opin ions. It was the consensus that more attention should be paid to diagnosis In medical colleges and that physicians should not depend too much on pre senting symptoms. Those papers read in the surgical section were on highly technical sub jects and this division was much more largely attended than the other. Session, Enda Today. Today, the closing day of tho con vention, will be given over to a busi ness meeting in the morning and" ses sions similar to those held yesterday. In the medical section papers will be read by Dr. Everett O. Jones, of Seat tle; Dr. H. J. Whlteacre. of Tacoma: COMMITTEEMAN AND SOME GRAND LODGE SESSION. , -' J J. X .1 r ! v.c, - I r "4 -3 C.

Grand Lodge Officer Commends System of Handling: Arrivals as Best He Has Ever Seen. Registration at the Elks' - headquar ters yesterday Jumped to a - total of J283 for the day, nearly three times as much as the total registration for the day preceding. The indexed roll, when the office was closed at c o ciock, showed that every state In the Union was already represented by at least one name. The grand total of registration up to date is now 4474. Thursday 90S men registered and 288 -women. Testerday 1385 women registered and 1898 men. The office closed at I o'clock yester day and the day before, but hereafter It will be open from 8 o'clock A. M. to 10 P. M. The total number or regis tration clerks will be Increased today from 28 to SS and Sunday to 42. It will be again increased Monday if the con ditions demand such action. Besides the 28 registration clerks who worked throughout the entire day yesterday, two men were engaged all the time attending to baggage cnecas, four women Indexed the names upon the roll as rapidly ss the registrations came in, and seven Elks were busy dis tributing lodge emblems. The sales of grandstand tickets from the booth in the registration office amounted to 8300 yesterday. Besides the other departments established for the convenience of the visiting Elks a postofflce is maintained, under the di rection of S. L. Stone, an eik irom tne city Postofflce. and a Western Union desk is maintained to give prompt mes senger service for the newly arnvea visitors. Decorations - of the Interior of the registration office, which is Installed In the new annex or tne uregon noiei, were put In by Wright & Dickinson, proprietors of the hotel, and donated to the Elks' lodge. The entertainment of more than 4000 guests in the Ilrst two days at this Informal opening ot tne New Oregon, is regarded by the pro prietors as "not so bad for a begin ning." Cary L. Applegate, of Salt Lake City, one of the trustees of the grand lodge, expressed his gratification at the sys tematic handling of tne registration work yesterday. "The organization of your registra tion office," he said, "is one or tne most expeditious and convenient I have seen at any of the grand lodge con ventions I have attended." ALBANY CHAUTAUQUA OPEN First Session Held in Auditorium When Classes Are Organized. ALBANY. Or.. July (. (Special) Al bany's third annual Chautauqua assem bly is in session. The first programme was presented in the auditorium last night, and the various classes of the Chautauqua Sunday School and the Al bany Bible School were organized to day. The Chautauqua opened with a big atendance. Because of the Oregon Electric cele bration yesterday no formal opening exercises were held, and the opening was delayed until evening. . when the Chicago Operatic Company presented the first programme of the assembly in the auditorium. Those who spoke today were H. M. Crooks, president of Albsny College; Lee Emerson Bassett, of Stanford Uni versity, and Miss Mary A. Sutherland, of Grand Forks, N.

Barbee Hakes Veiled At tack Upon Bryan, but Support Is Pledged to Candidate Picked by "Great Commoner." Only one discordant note marked the meeting of the Jackson Club last night and It waa sounded by James T. Bar bee, who managed Champ Clark's cam. palgn in this state preceding the pri mary election. Mr. Barbee did not men tion Bryan's name, but there was no misunderstanding his remarks, which were addressed, to the Nebraskan for his attitude in the Baltimore conven tion respecting the candidacy of Clark, including his proposal to eliminate from the convention Thomas F. Ryan and other delegates not satisfactory to him. "Any man who sets himself up as an autocrat to the extent that he defies the will of the people. Is an enemy to our common country," said Mr. Bar bee, discussing the Baltimore conven tion. "The attempt that was made to read out of the party some of the del egates was an example of the coldest kind of imperialism and autocracy." Pledge Is to Wilson. Mr. Barbee explained that he had come to the meeting, "not to whine or to put my back up to be shot at by the enemy." He insisted that the pend ing campaign was not one of men or personalities but of principles in which the services of every Democrat were needed. He pledged his hearty sup port of Wilson, and eulogized Clark, his personal friend, as one of the greatest of Democrats the country has produced. There was an excess of pride in evi dence at the meeting. The heart of every speaker was either "filled with pride" or he "viewed with -pride" the accomplishments of the Democracy whenever given an opportunity to per form. It was altogether an optimistic gathering which probably led one of the more enthusiastic speakers to as sert that the campaign "was as good as over," and to exhort his Democratic brethren patiently to await the Inaugu ration of their Presidential nominee next March, GROUP OP ATLANTA BOOMERS AND GRAND LODGE COMMITTEEMEN "WAITING FOR THE GRAND EXALTED RULER'S PARTY TO ARRIVE AT THE MULTNOMAH HOTEL.

The date for. the ratification meet Ins: at the Armory to celebrate the noni- nation of Wilson for President has not been fixed definitely. The plan Is to hold the demonstration some night in the week following the Elks' conven tion. PRISON IS MAN'S HOPE VICTIM OFv DRINK PLEADS TO JUDGE FOR LONG TERM. Ex-Soldier, Slave to Cigarettes and Liquor, Would Banish Effects From System and Reform. "This Is the first time In my Judicial experience that such a request has been made of me," said Judge Bean in the United States District Court yes terday when Joseph C. Bacon, pleading guilty to selling liquor to an Indian, asked that he be sentenced to im prisonment at the McNeil Island Fed eral Penitentiary for as long a period as the offence permitted. After . being arraigned and pleading guilty he was asked the usual ques tion if be had anything to say before sentence was pronounced. He ap proached the bar of the court and with perfect pose and an excellently modu lated voice, with a - slight Southern twang, ' saio: - "Tour honor, cigarettes and booze have been the ruination of my life and I want to be locked up as long as possible to see if I cannot re cover from their evil effects. "I was born in Texas 34 years ago and have an honorable discharge from the Infantry service at the completion of the Spanish-American War, serving in Luxon. For the last 11 years I have wandered up and down the coast, employed Irregularly as a cook, and I am a good one, but after every pay day I would have one day 'of getting drunk and serve a time in some city or county Jail. A short sentence would do me no good and I want a long one to get the booze and cigarettes out of my system. "The charge against me of selling liquor to an Indian at Klamath Falls is true. I was there hungry after a drunk and accepted 25 cents from an Indian in payment for buying him some whisky. I -would have bought him poison Just the same if he promised me the money. Your honor may think me crasy, but I am not, as I have been in Jail since early in June and the effects of the drugs have nearly passed away. I want to become en tirely cured, by my own efforts, and then when released devote the rest of my life to telling the world of my life experience and warning others to escape such an existence." Judge Bean pronounced a sentence on him of Imprisonment of 13 months In the McNeil Island penitentiary, for which he was gratefully thanked by Bacon. SELLING REPORT SCORED Expense Statement Attacked as Xot "Conforming to Law." SALEM, Or., July 6. (Special.) At tacking the expense statement of Ben Selling, Republican nominee as candi date for the United States Senate, de claring that It does "not conform to the law or the truth," and charging that Mr. Selling violated the corrupt practices act, Arnold Keller, of Port land, has forwarded an affidavit to that effect to the Secretary of State. In his affidavit he calls attention to expense incurred during January and February of this year. , Inasmuch as the petition of candidacy of Mr. Sell ing' was not filed until February 24, this affidavit wjll evidently bring out the .question of law as to Just when a candidate becomes a candidate. Whether expenditures made by Mr. Selling prior to that time can be said to be a portion of his expense In pro moting his candidacy, or whether he did not become a candidate until after his petition was tiled is involved In this point, it Is stated here. Testimony Taken in Oil Case. ' Testimony on the final hearing of the injunction of the Union Oil Com pany against the City of Portland Is in progress before. Judge Bean In the United States District Court This suit grew out of an ordinance passed by the City Council fixing the limits within which oil storage plants could be located. It is alleged In the com plaint that after the plaintiff purchased property within these limits at large expense and had started to erect a storage plant, another ordinance was passed whloh - changed the limits and excluded the land that was prepared for such use by the oil company. 1 V lii ' JQSSELYN TAKES F Carlines Sought by Property Owners Must Wait, Says Railway Man. BIG EXPENDITURE DELAYED Company Not Anxious to Build to New Districts and Is Ready to Carry Controversy to High Courts, Says President. fContlnped From First Page.) had arranged to construct within the next few months. The bridge controversy, one of the principal elements in the case, has as its basis the suit now pending in the courts in which the city is endeavor ing to force the company to pay a rate of 5 cents for each car operated over the Hawthorne bridge with a minimum of 815,000 a year. Mayor Rushlight at the beginning of the meeting, attempted to bring about a settlement of this question, but his proposition was not favorable to the company. He expressed the desire to dismiss the Hawthorne bridge case and to place a low valuation on the proposoed franchises of the company In lieu of the company accepting the terms which the city is trying to secure in the Hawthorne bridge case. President Josselyn declared that he had no authority to waive any of the rights ' of the company In the Haw thorne bridge case and be accordingly refused the Mayor's proposal. Voters to Settle Bridge Case. As a result of the sudden turn of the franchise proposition the Mayor has planned to place the bridge question before the people." At the conclusion of the meeting he announced that he will have the City Attorney prepare a reso lution asking the City Council to pls.ee on the ballot at the special charter election an initiative measure fixing the charge for operating streetcars over the bridges of the city at 3 cents a car. This, he declares, will settle the present bridge rate troubles and will net the city an annual Income of at least 818 000 more than is now received from the company for the use of the bridges. "This plan, I think, will be the best means of settling the trouble," said the Mayor. "I am dubious about the bridge situation as It stands at present, and It is for that reason that I am taking the stand that I do. It seems reason able that the company should pay a rate of 3 cents for each .car operated over the bridges. Litigation Means Delay, Tf the people fail, to vote In favor of my proposed measure it will then be up to us to settle our troubles in court and many years probably will be required, during which time the fran chises asked by the company cannot be granted, because we cannot fix the valuation. "The company wants to get rights of way to the approaches of the Broad way bridge. I am opposed to this un der present conditions, as it seems to me that the company's plan is to get low bridge rates. It probably is not necessary for the company to use both the new Steel bridge, owned by the Harriman people, and the new Broad way bridge, owned by the city. By getting rights up to the ends of these bridges the company can play the two In getting low rates, as it is apparent that both the city and the Harriman lines would desire the streetcar com pany to use their respective bridges. for the revenue to be derived." Company Not Anxious. President Josselyn said that the com pany has not been anxious to procure the franchise grants, as their Issuance would require large expenditures of money In building lines the company does not care to build, but which the property owners have insisted upon having built. He said he was willing to wait until the Public Utilities Com mission, which probably will be cre ated by the people next Fall, has an opportunity to pass upon the necessity of certain lines that the people insist upon, but which the company does not want to build. The franchise proposition was first brought up last Fall, when the com lany presented a request for a blanket grant. The street committee of the Council, after several months of futile attempts to decide the terms of the proposed grant recommended to the Council the granting of the franchise. It had been so changed that there was doubt about the company accepting. v ' r 3KJ RA GHISES BACK HOTELS AND The PORTLAND C. J.

Since that time the proposed grant has been with the Council, the Executive Board, and the street committee of the Executive Board.

Councilman Schmeer, of the Eighth Ward, In which several of the impor tant extensions were requested, last night said: "If these extensions are not built It will be a severe blow to the whole City of Portland and a decided setback to our progress. We are trying to build up a great city, and in order to do this we must have the means of transpor tation. These extensions are stub-ends of the general franchise and the street car company can get alonr without them better than the city, for the peo ple must ride on the streetcars whether the extensions are oum or noi. ine most Important extensions proposed on the East Side are those on East Har rison street, the Section Line at South Mount Tabor, the Mount Tabor exten sion to East Eighty-eighth streets. East Fifteenth street north to Alberta, the Woodlawn and the extension to the railroad bridge. The East Harrison street extension Is greatly needed right now and should be built. "I cannot see why these stub-end suburban extensions should be loaded up with restrictions and regulations that are not incorporated in the main franchise, such as the 3-cent fare and regulation of the fare which cannol apply to the main franchise which runs for a long time to come." Bonuses have been raised for the South Mount Tabor extension, the Mount Tabor and the Woodlawn. At Woodlawn the extension Is only a few blocks, and the company has a revok able permit to go ahead with the work at any time it sees fit. The street railway company is re laying Its tracks on Milwaukie between Holgate and Bybee avenue, and has started to relay its tracks on the Sandy boulevard. NESMITH BILL OVERSIGNED Community Rule Petition Document Has 1400 Unnecessary Signatures. COTTAGE GROVE, Or.. July 5. (Spe cial.) Fourteen hundred signatures more, than necessary have been secured to the St. Johns-Seaside-Cottage Grove community rule bill and the petitions were filed with Secretary of State Ol- cott This is the bill originated in Cottage Grove having for Its ultimate object the creating of Nesmith County. St. Johns and Seaside assisted in having sec r,,,f intn thft bill nrovldlne for consolidation of cities and towns. The main feature of the bill Is that county division and consolidation of cities is made a local Sjuestlon instead of going on the state ballot as at" pres ent. Owing to the large number of initiative bills this year, the securing of the requisite number of signatures proved to be a herculean task, and but for the sacrifice of personal business on ,v.a nor r t nnA nr tu'n memhem nf the committee, the bill probably would have never gotten onto ine oanui. Mombers of the Nesmith County com mittee feel certain that if this bill becomes a law Nesmith County will be a certainty.. A similar bill nearly passed two years ago.
