PARSONS HALL, Chamber Music. 8.15 P. M.
Ms. Bolmax's Address. Hon. Freder
ick V: Holman, vice-president of the Bun
leer Hill & Sullivan mine, In thb
Coeur d'Alene district, and friend
of labor, also general counsel of
the Portland General Electric Com
pany and foe to corporations, deliv
ered a speech at A. O. U. W. Hall last
night against corporate greed and pluto
cratic employers. Mr. Holman Is in a po
sition to know -whereof he speaks, anu
what he said on the subject was of much
interest, both to the down-trodden laborer
and the. oppressing octopua. After the
address, Mr. Holman, -with his chosen
friends, -withdrew to his club and partook
of a Bupper at 512 a. plate, in the Bryan-Hoffma-n-House
style. P. S. Through
some mistake, the hall of the A. O. U. "VV.,
"where Mr. Holman v.z& to speak, -was not
opened, and the powerful appeal in be
Ijalf of the people against monopoly, plu
tocracy and corporation's was not deliv
ered last night. But the supper came .on;
all right, and next Friday nlcht the
speech -will be delivered at some other
place, at early candle-lighting. It Is
through these foes of plutocracy that the
xlghts of the people are to be upheld, un-
awed by influence and unbrlbed by gain,
"Where Trails Xead To. A short time
ago a request "'from C. C. Wheeler, of
Syracuse, N. T., -was published asking for
information In regard to one W. Gardner,
'Who had lived here In early days, but haa
not heen heard of for many years. The
reauest elicited the information that Mr.
Gardner had died nine years ago. at the
age of 76, and that his -widow was living
with a son on Sarnie's Island. This in
formation -was sent to Mr. Wheeler by
Mayor Bpwe. and he wrote back that the
wrong trail has been struck and that the
dead Gardner is not the Gardner he in
crairfed" for. Probably it will be as well for
Mr. Wheeler to come to this Coast ana
see If he can hunt -up the right trail him
self. When people have aged relatives in
a far distant land and do not inquire
about them or hear from them for a long
perjod, it Is rather difficult for people wno
have no interest in the turtles to strike
the right trail, and even if the right trail
is found it is pretty certain, like the path
of glory, to "lead hut to the grave."
Wants to GEr Out or Jaii John E.
Mains writes from the Jail at Walla Walla
to City Treasurer Werleln to say that he
3ias been arrested for larceny. He apol
ogizes for writing to one whom he has
Isnown so slightly, but he is anxious to
fcavo 5100 raised "by his friends here to get
him out of jail by December 10. He swears
he is Innocent of the crime charged against
him, but the police failed to get the man
x?ho did the "work," so circumstances
connect him with the larceny. Ho says he
has written to others to help raise the
money, and mentions a number of city
and county officials, for all of whom he
says he has "worked," and if a suDscrip
tlon is gotten up they will all help him in
a time of need, as this is a matter ot
life and death to him, as they are bound
to swear him into the "pen." Mains is
said to have been a hanger-on around po
litical clubs, etc, but what his frlencs
will lo for him remains to be seen.
Looking for Frank Quinn. A woman
at Sacramento has written to Mayor
Howe to ascertain the whereabouts of
Prank Quinn, a member of the California
Artillery Company stationed at Fort Can
by last year. Through some misunder
standing, the Mayor was Informed by the
military authorities that there had been
no such man in the company mentioned,
"but this was shown to be an error by the
"woman forwarding the discharge of her
son while at Fort Canby. The Mayor has
not been able to ascertain what lias be
come of Quinn, and lias sent his discharge
back to "his mother. Perhaps this may
meet the eye of some one who knows
Qulnn or his whereabouts, and If so any
information sent to Mayor Bowe will he
iorwarded to Julnn's -mother. If he is
living, he ought to be ashamed of his con
duct in not writing to his mother, who is
arixious tc hear from him.
Fraudulent Fresh Eggs. A number of
cases of ".fresh" eggs have lately been
received by commission men iere from
some point in the country -which arc- not
what they are represented to be. On he
ing placed in the searching X-rays of a
oandle, coming through a hole in a board,
it is plainly seen that a considerable por
tion of the whlfes of the eggs is missing
evaporated in. some way, and on break
ing the eggs they aro found to be far
from fresh. Some one has evidently heen
endeavoring to keep these eggs In pickle
or lime, or cold storage of some kind, In
order to get a good price for them at this
season, but the experiment has been a
failure, and the attempt to pass them, oft
as fresh eggs has also proven a failure,
and is likely to involve the shlpger In loss
If -not worse trouble.
Suburbs Want -Free Deuvert. Citi
zens -of Woodlawn, Piedmont, Fulton and
Woodstock have "been endeavoring of late
to secure Iree delivery of mall In those
sections. They have so far not succeeded,
as the 'seven carriers recently added to the
force have all been detailed for work in
the -business part of the city. The people
of the sections named are unfavorably
situated for the extension, of the free de
livery system there, as they have not any
paved streets, and therefore are not en
titled to he served by carriers, and as they j
are msiae the city limits they have no
:lalm to be included in the free rural de
livery- system. They will have to unite.
in renewed efforts to secure carrier serv
ice, and may In the end secure what they
want In some way.
Draw Tested. The frame work and the
machinery of the new draw span of the
Madison street bridge are so far com
pleted that the draw was turned yester
day to see how the machinery worked. It
worked all right, but it was a slow pro
cess, moving it by hand, and when it had
"been about half closed, along comes &
steamer, which seemed Inclined to go
through without -waiting, so the draw was
turned back quite rapidly. As soon as the
motor for operating the machinery is put
in and the pavement laid on the draw. It
will be ready for operation, and this will
take but little more than a week.
Soie Are Still. Delinquent. Business
and professional men still continue to pay
the license imposed by the "blanket" ordi
nance, and quite a number of licenses are
issued daily. There are, however, still a
good many who have not paid, and as th$
license has been due for a month, it Is- ex
pected that those who have not yet at
tended to this matter will do so within a
few days. After a bit those who are de
linquent and those who have made erro
neous returns as to the amount of busi
ness tncy do will be 'attended to.

full control of the sh9 for about two

entire voyage, though she proved berself
stanch and seaworthy- W0 reached port

tinually holding on to something. Other
wise, all came In In .good shape, glad to

Charged With Larceny. John Crock
er, a saloon-keeper at Third and Burnslde,
was arrested yesterday on a charge ot
larceny by bailee. John'Davenport, a tim
ber land Investor from Wisconsin, filed
the complaint. Last Friday night, accord
ing to his account,, he deposited 5105 with
Crocker for safe keeping, and yesterday
when he called at the saloon and asked
for his money, he was handed $31. When
demanding more money and vigorously
asserting his claim to a greater amount,
he was told that he had drunk up the dif
ference between the two amounts. Daven
port accordingly swore ouf a warrant for
Crocker's arrest. The latfer was released
on nominal ball. ,
Favors a Belter Act. The following
paragraph was accidentally omitted from J
the Interview with Dr. S. E. JosephI, pub
lished yesterday: "I understand that there
Is money In the general fund to pay the
policemen, but that a decision of the Cir
cuit Court prevents its being taken out
for that purpose. If I am correct In this
supposition, and this decision shall not be
reversed by the Supreme Court beforb the
meeting of the Legislature, it seems to me
that it would he competent for the Mult
nomah County -delegation to have a relief
act passed which would cover the case."
Straws Vote in a Bank. The receiving

were for McKlnley and 4 for Bryan; Debs
none and Woolley none. While this ratio
Is probably greater In the Bepubllcan can

THE POLICE QUESTIO.N.
Statement by Senator Hunt, ex-Po-lice
Commissioner.
In addition to the statements from
members-elect of the Legislature, printed,
yesterday, we have the following from
Senator James E Hunt, formerly Police.
Commissioner. The Oregonlan regrets to
note, however, that though Mr. Hunt
gets In a heavy whack at tils political
adversaries, he suggests nothing like a
remedy for a public exigency and need:
"Portland, Oct. 30-HTo.the Editor.) 1
cannot agree in advance to make good,
at' the coming session of the Legisla
ture, any arrangements entered into by
the present Board of Police Commission
ers for the payment of the men, al
though on account of the latter I would
like to do so. For two years past I have
not heen in accord wltih their manage
ment, and I have less faith in them now
than heretofore. About a year ago I pro
posed reductions in salaries of the Chief
and men, which would have aggregated
over 512,000 per annum, enough to tide
the department over Its present embar
assment, but I was answered by silent
contempt, except that the -Chief said:
" 'If you want a hundred-dollar Oniet
you will have to And another man.'
"When I called attention to the defi
ciency which we were sure to meet ere
long, I was coolly informed that the
money would be forthcoming all right.
That was when there wa nothing but
Democrats apd Populists to answer to
the 'Citizens' not having yet been born.
This wag alEO before we reorganized un
der the new charter, and at a time when
we could make reductions legally. Now
that canont be done because the charter
says: 'No member or officer of the police
force, after his appointment by the
Board of Police Commlssiohers created
pursuant to this act or their successors
in office, shall be removed from tit de
partment or reduced in rank or pay for
any reason except inefficiency, miscon
duct, insurbonknatlon or violation of any
law.' I
"No one knows, however, to what extent
they may carry the matter of appoint
ments or salaries If we encourage them,
this being their last grab at the public
treasury. Recently, right In the face of
this impending 'crisis they have added
Snow and Kerrigan to the detective
force to pay ante-election pledges. There
was no need for their services whatever
except to cover the shortcomings or
others who aro still on the force. Twice
during the last IS months have men been
discharged from the force (seven each
time. I think), because of the lack of
funds, and each time they have all been
reinstated, except Humane Officer Wells,
on account, of the , political pressure
brought to bear for them. A few weeks
ago a favorite officer was allowed to re
Elgn and go on a special beat in the
north end. He could well be spared, but
when District Attorney Chamberlain told
the board he would have the man in
dicted by tie grand jury for his opera
tions on the beat if they did not remove
him from It, they Immediately found
room for ihlm on the force again.
"The men who made, or helped to
make, our present charter coulS Ignore
or comply with its provisions at their
own sweet will until after the June
election was held. .Now they want our
help. Well, they can have it on condi
tion that the entire board, Including the
Chief and several objectionable members
to be designated by our delegation, ten
der their resignations to the proper offi
cials, and we be allowed to suggest their
successors
"There being neither emoluments or
high honor left In the department, they
will doubtless take advantage of this kind
offer at once for the benefit of the de
partment and the otty.

"Wonderful Music.
Delighted surprise was manifested by
those who went to the concert of the
Royal Marine Band of Italy Jast evening.
They quickly realised that this Is one pf
the greatest bands ever heard In this or
any other country. No other brass band
has ever undertaken the reproduction of
grand opera In the way that It Is given by
this organization of musicians, with such
unqualified success.
The Grays' Armory was well filled for
the opening concert, and few concerts
hav5 excited more enthusiastic npplauae.
The music of the-entire fourth act of
"La Travlata" was given. The part of
Vloletta was taken It might almost be
said that It was sung by the trumpet or
cornet soloist; that of Alfredo by the
trombone, and that of Germont by the
bombardino, or tenor horn. The extent
to which the, Instrumentalists produced
the effect of human voices in the way of
expression was a revelation. This num
ber aroused the enthusiasm of the audi
ence to the highest pitch.
The procramme was brilliantly per
formed, and every number was enthulas
tlcally encored, the recalls' being respond
ed to with American National medleys or
familiar American compositions. Cleve

THUGS MAKE A HOLD-UP.
Ernest Tnrner Robfeed at Parle and
Flanders Last Night.
Ernest Turner, a young man employed
at the Portland Flouring Mills, was held
up by two thugs, while cutting across the
square at Park and Flanders streets. The
place Is dark and lonely, and is a favor
ite place for footpads to lurk, no less
than 10 hold-ups having occurred in that
neighborhood Jn the last year. Turner
was suddenly seized from behind, and
given the- "strong- arm hold" by one of
tha- men, while the other went through
his pockets, getting $7 50. The men were
not armed, apd after robbing Turner sim
ply told him to, cut and run. He Imme
diately reported 'his loss to the police sta
tion, but the patrolmen and detectives
detailed on the case found no trace of
the robbers. Less than a year ago a
hold-up was committed by the same
method, and the police believe that tha
same men have begun work, again In

Girls, Beware I
Franklin Matthews in Harper's Weekly.
T will take any one worthy of consid
eration In the matter to a man whose
husiness it is -to send out agents to scour
tho country for girls who, under promises
of good situations, are brought to this
city fort hellish purposes. Never was that
business mora flourishing than at present.
In' June, 1S99, one of these cases got into
print. Fifteen young women were brought
to this city from the neighborhood of Al
lentown, Pa. Those cases got into the
courts; hundreds do -not. The details of
this commerce are the most shocking of
all that flourish. It is a traffic that in
vades tho sanctity of the home, hundreds
of miles away. It tugs at the heart
strings of mothers.
WHERE TO DINE.
The Portland Restaurant,
305 Washington atreot, near Fifth,
Is tho best in the city.
