LIEVES RECEIVER.
T. P. Randall, receiver of the ds
funct Northwestern association, of
which Josbo Hazcll, now serving n
year In the Multnomah county Jail on
a charge of fraudulent use of the
mails, suld Monday that to ditto, $30
linn worth of claims from contract
holders had hcn died with him,.
"I have written to many of the con
tract holders and told them tho exact
state of affairs, and many have drop-
pod all effort to get anything back,'
(aid Mr. Randall. "Ilcsldcs the con
tract holders, there are several mort
gages outstanding against the prop
erty of the association In the Red-
lands district. I consider the chances
of the men who have Invested In the
association receiving anything In re
turn are remote."
Mr. Randall holds the books of. the
association. The court has not order.ij
him to total up such items as the
ey Ink-ail several
weeks ago and the council, hoping lo
get Rl'ty off Hit Job, etopped bis
, monthly salary of $7:. Riley, hot
lever, continued lo work, and tho fur

I clo. nient In the situation.
; Rlloy to Accuie Council.
Riley raid Tueaday that he In'eiided
1 lo inane counter ilnr;; agalm-t the
council at tho next meeting. "E'cry
! assertion the counrll made In IU .-.tato-'
1 merit la untrue." he said. "I will reply
I to them and nuikri additional charges
j the next time they inert." He dec'.lned
I to dhuli-0 the nature of the charges
j ho would make.
r The council dc l.tres In Its ptate
1 merit that It desired to follow the plan
of appointing a civic ruperlnter.dent,
who would hava chart: of tl. muter
) idem, Hllce work, street repairs,
crosswalk cleaning and general mat

shal, hut found him verv Indifferent."
reuds the statement. "We first asked
him to do his duty as marshal, aui in
questioning him discovered that he
hud been drawing fees from the coun
ty and accepting money from ot'ier
fotirccs than (he city for performing
police duty, in kdditiun to the $7o per
month paid hlu. by tfce town."
Riley's Statement Answered.
' We also found that he would not
enforce the laws ind ordinances with
out some citizen made a complaint to
him although he knew the law was be
ing violated. When wo asked hlin whv
he did not enforce the law, ho said the
council hud no Jurisdiction over him,
and thc only one ho looked to tor or
ders was the mayor. From his atti
tude, the co'imil decided he wa not
the man for water s'Uicrintendent, and
voted lo discontinue his kalury ufter
May 1 "
. Tho statement then quotes sections
from the city charter, showing that
the council has authority over the mar
shal.
"During the silver thuw in January
nnd February the street lights were
out for 17 das," the statement con
tinues. "When siKiken to concerning
the lights he said he knew nothing
about It. There was a matter of $02.50
on the light hill. Was it worth know
ing about? The council directed the
'.nnrshal to cut dawn some trees on
Thirty-second street, and to do the
work himself; but instead of following
his instructions, the marshal hired a
ninn who charged the town $7 for the
work. At this time tho marshal was
engaged In trying out nn automobile
with an nnto dealer, when his time be
longed to the city. He has constantly
neglected his duties In other ways and
has not taken a personal Interest In
his work."
Petition from Cltizent.
At the lust regular meeting of The
council a petition was presented sign
ed hy a tnnjority of tho property own
era of the town asking tbnt tho conn
ell restore the salary of the marshul
The petition declared that tho actions
of the council were "pernicious, detrl
mental, unwarranted and unlawful in
terference with the duties of a faith
ful and efficient public officer."
Sentence by sentence the statement
takes tip and replies to the petition
Tho statement doses with a plea for
harmony nnd co-operation between
property owners and council. The
next meeting of the council will be
held next Tuesday night, when Riley
will make his charges against the conn
cil and reply to the charges against
him.
Marshal Rllcy when Interviewed oy
a representative of the Press stated
that he welcomed a public hearing on
the charges which the city council has
made.

Ho ridiculed the Idea of placing a two

middle of a high-priced block of

the one-story building, so located as
to leave playground space. He talked
