PORTLAND POLICEMAN
PATRIOTIC DAY
TO BE OBSERVED
BY CLACKA1MAS
ARRESTED BY MEADS
County Speed Officer Meads, who
has a peculiar habit ot bobbing up in
out-of-the-way places at unconven
tional hours, assumed an important
role In a neat 11 ttla melodrama stag
ed at Clackamas station late Thura
' day night As a result George Bauer,
a Portland bootlegger, is out on $130
ball, while another Portland boot
legger together with City Policeman
Tetter are out only because Serg
eant Thatcher of Portland has explain
ed their appearance at Clackamas, to
local authorities.
The melodrama had its thrills,
and possibly there may be subse-q-.ient
Action of interest Meads and
Sheriff Wilson had visited Clackamas
station Wednesday night where they
met the Portland bootlegger, whose
wife, incidentally had boarded the
train at Oregon City. Nothing happen
ed, bowevera. no mysterious passen
gers left the train, no gurgling suit
cases were put off, and the Portland
bootlegger and his wife drove quietly
away.
Thursday night Oflcer Meads was
again on outpost duty at Clackamas
station. Jusi. as the Frisco train came
around the bend, an auto swung in
near tha station. The train paused
for a moment only and then started
on. The machine driver gave three or
four sharp "honks" and the myster
ious gentleman from Frisco, bearing
two suitcases, appeared and entered
the waiting auto.
Then it was that Officer Meads
took a hand In the affair. He placed
the entire party under arrest and
ordered them to driva to Oregon
City.
"It's all right,- said Teeter. ' I'm a
Portland policeman. We've got the
man."
With his usual persuasiveness, how
ever. Meads insisted on the three
driving to Oregon City. Sergeant
Thatcher was called and he informed
the local cfflcer that he had detailed
Tester to visit Clackamas station
with the bootlegger, who was turning
states evidence. It is understood this
man is out on bail for violating the
prohibition law at the present time.
As a sequel, promptly at 10:30
Friday morning Attorney Plowden
Stott appeared in behalf of the jailed
man, Bauer, The prisoner had denied
that he knew any of the party at the
station, so the wireless telepathy that
brought a Portland lawyer to his res
cue, with ample funds for bail, is
another little mystery. Bauer made
no effort to communicate with any
one while In Jail. He waa released
upon giving $150 bail for his appear
ance here next Tuesday.
As the Portland bootlegger was
under the protection of Sergeant
Thatcher, no complaint was issued
for his arrest. Bauer admitted coming
in on the train and getting off at the
station with the booze, but stated he
did so at the reques of the porter.
As proclaimed by President Wilson
Friday will be recognised all over
i Clackamas county as Patriotic Day.
Patriotic meeting have bsen set to
date as follows and speakers nave
been assigned: .
Macksburg Geo. C Brownell.

ment. Steady demand for shipwrights
($6.60)," lathe machinist ($5.77H).
and boilermakers ($5.77 M. These

ing employed in the shipyards, par
ticularly at Astoria, Oregon, and Ray

repairers, painters, blacksmiths, coach
builders, In fact, men are needed for
all classes of shop work, wages from
30 cents to 55V4 cnts per hour, eight

day. It is expected that the above
scale of wages will ba raised In the
very near future.

Portland is facing a famine ot sup
plies. All previous high price records
were smashed In both the livestock
and dressed meat trade during Mon
day. With a rise ot $1.25 to $1.50 per hun
dred pounds In the price of live cattle
In the North Portland stockyards and
with sales ot steers as high as $14 per
hundred pounds, all previous price sen
sations were but moderate values. The
general top ot the market was placed
at $13.75.
Here Is the way It Is passed on to
the consumer. The price of best steer
beef was advanced 3 cents a pound
at wholesale to 23 cents a pound, cow
meat, and this includes heifers, was
boosted to 22 cents a 'pound, rib 29
cents, chucks 17 cents and rounds of
beef 23 cents a pound.
Then the price of whole dressed
hogs was advanced to 25 cents a pound
by packers with loins of pork at 81
cents anrt shoulders at 25 cents a
pound.
Mutton did not escape the general
famine for there was an advance of
one cent a pound all through the dress
ed mutton market with dressed yearl
ings at 29 cents, whetbers 27 cents,
ewes 25 cents and spring lambs 40
cents a pound.
The consumer will pay the usual ad

WASHINGTON, April 22. Disap
pointment In Germany over the lack of

pictured as severe In dispatches yes

cism of the admiralty, the dispatch
says, has followed the realization that
the undersea war Is not accomplishing
what was claimed tor it In the begin
ning. One dispatch says:
"The accounts In the Berlin papers
of the recent debates lot It be clearly
perceived In spite of the censor the
severity of the criticisms which have
come to light. The Germun admiralty
was attacked by the deputies of almost
every party, while Admiral von Capolle
had constantly to resort to the plea of
extenuating circumstances for the
powerlessness of the German navy to
obtain the results calculated."

' WAsiuNOTON. Aprll 23-the case
of Thomas J. Mooiiey, convicted , of
murder In , tha 8u FiuiicIhco pre
parodnoHS puruilo bomb plot hold the
attention of thu senate today, with
Senator I'helnn of California defend
ing the regularity of Mooney's trial.
Seniitor Pholan commended President
Wilson for 'askltm a ' roHpite tor
Moonfy from Uovernor Stephens.
Referring to the address yesterday
of Senator Polndextor of Washington,
which sttld Seattle labor loaders were
fomenting a strlhs In behalf nf
Moonpy, Senator l'helun said the la
bor press had charged that Mooney
wn being "railroaded" and that his
conviction was a "legal ontraaV
"This Is not true." said Senator
Pholnu. "Thers was nothing Irreg
ular In the court proceedlngM, He hud
a fnlr trial.'
When Senator Photon suld ' ht
thought Senator Poltidexter had re
flected on California's courts In con
nection with Mooney's trial, tho Wash
Inttton senator said he was entirely
mistaken and thut he, Senator Poln
dexter, had defended the California
courts,
The president's Interference In be
half ot Mooney, Senator I'helnn as
serted, was justified in order to vin
dicate the I'nltud States and regu
larity and fairness of Mooney's treat
ment "In view of the dojbt of his
guilt credited In the minds ot many
people." Senator Phelsn said Mooney
waa an "unworthy man," and that the
newspspers of which he had b en
editor had "threatened President Wil
son with assassination."
"It Is not for us to try this esse
In the snato," Senator Phelan con
tinued. "Both myself and the junior
senator (Senator Johnson.) have been
aakml to bring It up with a view to
a congressional Investigation, but wo
refused."
The report of the labor commission
beaded by Secretary Wilson, whlrli
Investigated the Mooney case, vouch
ed for the fairness of Mooney's trial.
Senator Phelsn said. Ho said the
reports that Mooney hsd not bo m
fairly treated had born spresd even
to R inula and had hampered the
Amorlt-au mission's efforts thera.
A motion by Senator Phelan thnt
the Wilson commission's report bo
printed In the reiord wus defu.and
by the inut , however. The Cali
fornia member asked (lint It be print
ed as an "answer" to Senator Polo
deiters address, but both Senators
I'olndexter and Smoot disclaimed thst
any reflection had been made upon
California's judlcliit processes.
Senator l'helun declared that In
labor circles there Is no sympathy
for Mooney and that he Is regarded
as a "very dangerous man ttecuusj of
bis previous record."
"I believe Mooney ami his associ
ates were victims of their own cu
pidity and that they wero bribed by
German mouey to perpetrate this
crime," tne laiuoriun senator as
sorted, adding thnt he regretted very
much that the "labor Intercut of the
country should have a misconception
of the crime."

WASHINGTON, April IS. Dlractor
General McAdoo Is about to clip 1,
000,000 miles a month from the total
mllcano traveled by passenger trains
west of the Mississippi river.
Tho revolutionary ch.-inge, besides
releasing, scores of locomotives for
hauling war necessities, Is directly In
line, with McAdoo's policy of econ
omy In operation of the national rail
ways. It will placa passenger service
on a strictly war . basis. Ono train
practically will be doing the work nf
two, it is said.
Constant calls for speed in bundling
materials needed In the prosecution
of the wiir has forced tho transporta
tion of passengers to b3 given second
ary consideration. Ilecmt elimination
of "suporflouoiis trains'' east of the
Mississippi river has provided a basis
for the rearrangement of train sched
ules In other sections. The plun, which
will be announced shortly, is expoct-
ed to uffoct the entire West.
Transcontinental trains no longer
will be permitted to carry half filled
coaclns. And they will make more
stops since contemplated changes will
eliminate numerous local trains. The
number of trains from coast Iff coast
will be fewer.
