MONEY MATTERS CAUSE
OF ST. PAUL TROUBE
MRS. TREMBATH GIVES HER VER
SION OF AFFAIRS DICK LICH
HAS GONE.
HOTEL SOLD AND NAME CHANGED
Thomas Stakely of Wasco County Buy
Boarding Houae Trembatha
Are Going to England .
The St. Fnul hotel has been sold to
Thomas Stakley of Wasco county and
the proprietor took charge of the
boarding and rooming house on Sun
day morning. From now, on th house
will be known as the "Stakely Hotue."
Mr. Stakely is not entirely a stranger,
in Oregon City as he has been in this
city for tho last four months and had
been employed In the Willamette Pulp
mill.
When seen Monday morning Mr.
Stakely jjaid. that he intended to run
a boardlrfg house that would be a cred
it to Oregon City and it was his in
tention to keep it in the best of order,
fie will strive to overcome the name
the St. Paul house acquired during
the last few weeks and that will part
ly be done through the change of the
name. The St. Paul house Is to be
forgotten by all, he says.
The deal was made to Mr. Stakely
by Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey Trembath
and they have released all claims to
the business. The former proprietors,
Mr. and Mrs. Trembath, will go to
housekeeping for some time, and af
ter the fishing season they will start
for England, Mrs. Trembath's old
home, where they will spend several
months visiting relatives and friends.
Mrs. Trembath was In England about
a yeaf ago and If they like the coun
try they will remain there to make
their home.
The change in the proprietors of
the St Paul bouse recalls the doings
within Its walls during the last month.
When seen Monday morning about
the deal which transferred the busi
ness of the liotel to the new man,
Mrs. Trembath was very eager to
make explanations for the stories
which have been current about her
rooming house for some time.
"The whole trouble that has come
to this house was not caused as had
been reported at first by many. Many
tried to make a scandal of a little disa
greement. They have had a wrong
idea of the condition of affairs, for
money matters were at the bottom of
the whole thing. After the shooting
scrape which, took place about two
weeks ago, I bought out Mr. Dlcklich
or rather forced him to sell as we.
could not stand his way of doing busi
ness. He pocketed all the money, paid
only a few bills and when he went
away after the scrape with the negro
cook, be secured much money for
b&ard In advance and the $200 I paid
him for his share of the business."
Then ttie lady went on to explain
that Dlcklich wa3 not in the habit of
keeping books for the hotel, but only
for his own benefit in his (Italian)
language, and that he always had the
money.
"You can make plain," she said,
"that the first trouble, when Mr.
Trembath found Mr. Dlcklich and my
self conversing in the former's room,
that, we were only talking over some
unpaid meat bills and that had been
the trouble all day, it was no won
der that when Mr. Trembath found
us together that his temper got the
best of him. We have been badly treat
ed and cheated by this man Dlcklich,
and he has cheated us out of much
money."
About this time Mr. Trembath help
ed the conversation by saying that
if he knew where that man was now
he would have him arrested for ob
taining money under false pretenses.
Since his departure the owners have
had to board several persons gratis,
as Dicklich had the cash In hla pock
ets.
Richard, the negro cook and dish
washer is again working at the hotel
and happy as a lark. He was taken
out of jail by Trembath and given
back his Job.
GANG GUILTY OP
GREATER CRIME
Portland, Jan. 28. Charles Ander
son, one of the ten men caught in
the police dragnet recently in a raid
on a Front street lodging house, and
Frank Wane, under arrest for the
Sellwood postoffice robbery, are sus
pected by the police of being the men
who murdered Dr. Philljp Edwards
Johnson and threw his body from the
1 Ford street bridge.
It leaked ouft
Sunday, In spite of the efforts of Cap
, tain of Detectives Bruin and Detec-
live llollyor to keep tho mutter se
cret, that when Anderson's room was
searched ovldoneo was found that
points to Anderson as ono of tho mon
who committed the fiendish crime.
Just what the evidence couslaU of
is not yet known, but from all ac
counts It must bo strong, for both
tho officers have striven ever since
Dr. Johnson's body was found under
tho bridgo to prove that ho commit
ted suicide. Tho fact that the friends
of the murdered physlciun havo In
creased tho reward for tho arrest and
conviction of the men who committed
the crime from f 1000 to 2000 may
havo had something to do with tho ac
tivity of tho police.
SHALL FACTORY
BE RETAINED?
CSWALD MANUFACTURING COM
PANY OFFERED BONUS
AND BUILDING FROM
CORVALLIS MEN.
I'nlesa Oregon City Is willing to
lose a big enterprise, the Oswald Man
ufacturing Co., it Is time to begin
making arrangements to keep them.
Tho grounds and building where the
factory now stands, belong to Frank
Uuscb, but they have already notified
Mr.'Busch that their Increasing busi
ness has made their present quarters
too cramped. They have now outstand
ing contracts of 1300 they are un
able to fill on account of not being
able to turn out work fast enough for
lack of room where they are,
A few lots are not sufficient for a
factory Of this kind, rather requiring
acreage, as the kiln must be away
from the main building to prevent dan
ger of fire. Five years ago the citi
zens of Sa. Johns gave $2500 to the
Doernbecker Manufacturing company
and today it Is tho biggest factory on
the coast. Corvallls has offered the
Oswald Co. $5000 bonus and tho use
of a large factory formerly a carri
age factory, to come to their town.
The Oswald Manufacturing company
Is composed of Oregon City people
and they prefer remaining here, if
the proper inducements to stay to
justify their business Interests were
given them.
It would certainly show an enter
prising spirit if some of the moneyed
men of Oregon City would look Into
the matter and try to keep this in
dustry at home.
MACKINAW GIVEN
25 DAYS IN JAIL

ficer After Serving First

given the limit. Mackinaw tried to
