THE MORNING OREGONIAN. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1913. VANCOUVER URGES RRAMR JURY PRflRF he has seen no occasion for an investi gation. According to City Health Officer Marcellus a market inspector found a large quantity of frozen turkeys and ducks in the L.a. Grande creamery plant and condemned them. Later another Inspector went to the place and said the ducks found were not in bad con dition, but that the turkeys were bad and should be destroyed. After this the ducks were shipped to Seattle. When Ir. Marcellus heard that they had been shipped he says he immedi ately swore to a complaint against the proprietor of the creamery company and intended to have him arrested. After the warrant wan issued the proprietor of the creamery called upon Dr. Marcellus and told him of the con flict in the orders of the market in spectors. Not having heard of this before. Dr. Marcellus says he stopped service of the warrant- until he could investigate. The ducks were returned to the city and destroyed and Dr. Mar cellus says that because the depart ment was to blame for the conflict in opinion and orders, he did not feel jus titled in prosecuting the management of the creamery. Inasmuch as all the ducks were returned and condemned. TODAY ACTORS PLAY ROLE OF EPICURUS WllilllV W W I S ISWWka Mayor's Attempt to Have Bal lot "Scandal" Taken Up by , Council Fails.

Never before in the history of this city, and that reaches back almost a. century, has there been, such a scan day concerning an election. In which George B. Stoner and Edward H. Mack, ey are tied, by the canvass of the re turns, for candidate for Councilman from the Sixth Ward, east of the gar rison. At a mass meeting of citizens held In the City Hall tcx1ay a petition asking the Judges of the Superior Court to call a grand jury to Investigate the charges that someone has tampered with the pollbook and stolen ballots from the ballotboxes was passed and freely signed. Mayor Irwin attempted to hold a special meeting of the Council yester day, but only three members were present, three others having fled to Portland. The other was in Roseburg, Or. Another meeting was called for 9 o'clock this morning, to go into the, muddle of the ballots for Mackey and stoner, and had John Secrlst, Chief of I'ollcc, serve the notices on the Coun cilmen. Wentworth, Stoner and "Wil kinson were in Portland and when they stepped from the ferry at a late hour last night they were served. Hasty Departnre Made. Before the meeting this morning, however, Stoner, so he himself says, took Wilkinson and Wentworth to Portland in haste. At 9 o'clock the meeting could not be held, there being but Councilmen Schuele, Engelman and Elwell present, besides the Mayor. An adjournment was taken until 11 o'clock and in the interim Charles A. Hasson. City Clerk, was called to the telephone by a long distance call. He said that Stoner talked to hini and Mr. Stoner, who re turned this afternoon, admitted that he lid. Stoner asked what had been done and Mr. 'Hasson replied that a ciuorum was not had, so a meeting was not held. Mr. Hasson says that Mr. Stoner then informed him that he had a quorum of the Council in Portland and had elected a president pro tern, and de cided that they were all going to Cali fornia until after Thanksgiving. When Stoner was seen here later he admitted tulking to Hasson. , j Sticker to Be ITned. The opinion of It. C. Sugg. City At torney, wilL be followed, iiml the names of Stoner and Mackey will be left from the ballot for the regulation eloetloi Tuesday, December 2. Stickers will be used. The terms of Stoner and Wilkinson will expire at the end ot the yji-.r but Mr. Wentworth holds over a year. There were many rumors afloat today that Mr. Wentworth would be recalled for his action In attempting to block the holding of a meetlnfeT Mayor Irwin today said he was 'n favor of a grand jury, and several tax payers made speeches In which the question was raised. "Who is interest ed enough in the election to tamper with the poll book from precinct C, where five tally marks were ad dart to Stoner's vote and 19 ballots were tak en from three boxes?" W. P. Connaway, cashier of the Van couver National Bank, and father of Miss Lillian Connaway, who was elec tion clerk in precinct C, where the poll book was changed, struck a. popular chord when he said that something had been done reflecting: on some of the best citizens of the city, and that, if tiie Councilmen who were absent were innocent, why were they not present to attend to business? it was declared by Attorneys Staple ton and Sugg today that the Council had no legal right to recount the votes when it was found that Stoner and Mackey were tied; so, what they have done since that time, they hold, is not legal with regard to the primary election. COW HOLDS UP TRAFFIC "Wanderer on Vancouver Trestle Goes Through and Help Is Needed. "Come on. Boys; give us a lift. There's a cow on the track." This was the invitation received by passengers on a Vancouver car bound fo- Portlrv. - when they reached the third trestle south of Hayden's Island last night. Some of the men got off. They joined the motorman and con ductor and walked about 20 feet ahead. There their observations confirmed tho first informal announcement of the conductor. A much-frlgh.enod brindle cow, weighing about 800 pounds, was fast In me middle of the track, her four legs protruding through the ties. How she had made her way over about 150 feet or trestle without falling through Is an unsolved mystery.

Mr. and Mrs. Baker Hosts. Mr. and Mrs. George L. Baker will have one of their celebrated dinner parties. Home life as other people under stand it is almost foreign to the aver age actor. Those nearly approaching it are the stock people, but even with them it is at best a sort of temporary abiding place, for they never know whether they will be here or thousands of miles away within the month. Thomas Walsh, character actor of the Baker Players, is to experience the first Thanksgiving day for 20 years on which he has had a real home din ner. He and Mrs. Walsh are going to enjoy one in the privacy of their own apartments.

Walter Beasley, who lives in the house, told the police that the woman staggered from the room and called for help. He assisted her to a room, where she sat down in a chair and died almost immediately. In the opinion of n English dentist, the wear of macadam roads is not due to the auction of automobile-. tires, but almost en tirely to tha crushing aftect of horseshoes and Iron-tired wheals.

Though Dr. Cardwell was 83 years old September 11, his constitution is so sturdy and his general health so good that Dr.. A. E. Rockey. who set the fracture, said yesterday he expected to see him as fit as ever in a month or so. "Dr. Cardwell is doing very well, in deed," said Dr. Rockey. Dr. Cardwell was on his way to his home at 182 Bancroft avenue when the accident occurred. He did not see the approaching streetcar on account of having an umbrella held low in front of his face.

It is greater than the combined shipments of all other Detroit made cars selling at or above the Cadillac price. It comprised all types of Cadillacs, 1828 of the open-body styles and 188 closed cars. It amounted in retail selling value tof our million, two hundred forty-six thousand, four hundred twenty-five dollars ($4,246,425.00). It is an unparalleled indorsement of the 1914 Cadillac. It indicates the degree to which the motor-buying public recognizes the advanced principles of construction in the 1914 Cadillac, and that the motor-buying public, recognizes the Cadillac as the pre-eminent car. It indicates that the Cadillac, Standard of the World, is" the car that domi nates the high-grade field. WASHINGTON ST. AT TWENTY - mously re-elected for 20 years, he re tired as honorary president.
