-A, late decision of Judge Bellinger, of
the United States Court in the case of
J. Thorburn Ross vs. the City of Port
land, involving the legality of the assess
ment for the improvement of Sixth
etreet, has pronounced the present style
of proceedings in making such assess
ments illegal. This decision Is In line Tvith
a decision of the United States Supreme
Court in a case almost similar, but is
opposed to the decision of the Supreme
Court of Oregon. A case Involving the
point decided by Judge Bellinger has been
appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States, and City Attorney Long
reports that in a similar suit that court
has made a decision contrary to the one
on which Judge Bellinger's decision was
based. The judiciary committee of the
City Council has decided that It is ad
visable for Mr. Long to proceed to "Wash
ington and endeavor to secure a decision
from the United States Supreme Court
especially to settle the uncertainty in
which street assessment matters are in
volved here.

Disorderly Man Arrested. Charles
Clark, 40 years old, was threatened with
lynching last Tiighi, by an excited crowd
of about 150 people, for his conduct to
ward two little giris at East Twelfth
and Powell streets. For two weeks
past various little girls on the
East Side have been frightened by
a man who accosted them on the
street after dark, and the parents told
their girls to give the alarm if they saw
the man again. Last night two girls
recognized the man on East Powell street,
and screamed. Men and women rushed up
and surrounded Clark, and the cry went
up: "Lynch him." Policeman Patton
took charge of Clark just in time, and

J ciety has issued a neat souvenir pro
gramme suitable for the occasion, which
i should be preserved.
Fred R. Griffiths Discharged. Fred
Richards Griffith, who was arrested oh a
charge of sending a threatening letter to
a business man of this city, for the pur
pose of extorting money, had an examina
tion before United States Commissioner
Sladen yesterday. He directed the money
to be sent in a letter addressed to Fred
G. Richards, but as there appeared to be
no law forbidding a person from inverting
or mixing up his name as he pleased, and
as an attempt to extort money is a matter
to be passed upon by the state courts and
not the Federal courts, Commissioner Sla
den was obliged to discharge Griffiths.
Whether the case will be taken Into the
state courts or not is not known.
Women Thieves Sentenced. May Hun
ter, colored, was sentenced yesterday by

TO WELCOME M4CINLEY
CROWDS WILL COME TO PORTLAND
JFR.03I ALL OVER THE STATE.
Railroads Will Offer Special Rates
and Ran Excursion for Benefit
of Sightseers.
Thousands of people will come to Part
land to greet President McKlnley on his
arrival from the South. Every railroad
that runs trains Into the city is making
preparations to handle an immense crowd
and are offering special rates for the ex
cursions that will be run from every
part of the state. The day will be made
a gala day and the event will be one
memorable In the history of the city, not
only on account of the notable visit of
President McKlnley, but also on account
of the throng of patriotic Americans
that .will be gathered to do honor to the
distinguished guest of the city and state.
Tne arrangements for the special ex
cursions to Portland have been taken up
by the committee on transportation, ap
pointed by Mayor Rowe, and every effort
will be made to secure the best possible
rates so as to facilitate the visit of every
one who wishes to see the President.
Chairman Hahn has received assurances
from the Southern Pacific Co., O. R. & N.
Co. and Northern Pacific Railway Com
pany that satisfactory rates will be given
for the day. General Passenger Agent
Markham, of the Southern Pacific,
has already announced a one-fare rate for
the round trip from all points on the
road's lines running north of Roseburg,
good for three days.
The Northern Pacific and O. R. & N. Co.
hai'e not yet announced their rates, but
will do so within a few days. Their rates
will probably be one and one-third fares
for the round trip.

funds for the Presidential reception are
making fair progress, and almost half of
the desired amount has been subscribed.
Those who desire to contribute to the
fund should either leave their contribu

MULTNOMAH LADIES'
NIGHp
ALLEN & GILBERT CO.
They Become tlie Successors of the
Wiley B. Allen Co. In the States
of Oregon, Washington, Idalio,
Montana and Wyoming.
Beginning today, the new firm of Allen
& Gilbert Co. assume active control of
the old-established music house of the
Wiley B. Allen Co., at 209-211 First street,
in this city. Mr. F. N. Gilbert, who has
for several jears past been the cashier
of the First National Bank of Moscow,
has severed his connection with that In.
stitution, so as to give his Individual
care and attention to the large and ex
tensive piano and organ trade to which
the new firm has fallen heir through the
purchase of the Wiley B. Allen Co.'s good
will and various agencies. Not only will
Allen & Gilbert Co. carry all the high
grade pianos forinerly represented by the
Wiley B. Allen Co , but will add several
others to the list, notably the "Packard"
and ,ihe "Everett," two of the choicest
products of the world.
Mr. Gilbert will surround himself with
whole-souled, broad-minded, experienced
salesmen, who will never stoop so low as
to speak disparagingly of a competitor
or keep on hand an "armory" in the vault
with which to do what is known among
the trade as "dirty work." It will be
the policy of the new firm to always keep
the best makes of pianos possible to se
cure, and to always cater to the best
trade and to treat all piano customers
with the utmost care and consideration,
never making a misrepresentation or re-'
sorting to tactics unfair and misleading.
Mr. George W. Kennedy will be on the
floor with Mr. H. G. Reed two gentlemen
who probably, as "piano salesmen," have
no equal on this Coast.

SYMPHONY CONCERT.
Interesting Programme Prepared for
Tomorrow Night.
The Symphony Orchestra will give its
last concert of the season tomorrow even
ing at the Marquam. A highly interest
ing programme has been prepared for
the occasion, and there Is every reason
to expect that the usual large and fash
ionable audience will be present, since
the orchestra has made Itself exceedingly
noDular among Portland music-lovers. The
novelties of the evening's programme will
be the Moszkowskl march ("Inaugura
tion") for orchestra, and the 'cello con
certo played by Mr. Konrad. Little Palo
ma and Karla Scnramm will also appear.-
a feature that Is sure to be received with
great favor by the audience.
The second Beethoven symphony will
be the heavy number of the evening. This
It will be remembered, shows Beethoven
In the normal condition of a man at
peace with himself and the world, happy
in his art, and not yet stirred to his
very soul by the sorrows of life. The sec
ond movement (larghetto) In particular Is
one of the loveliest slow movements
Beethoven ever wrote, and is a special
favorite In the concert-room, while the
finale shows a healthy exuberant spirit of
fun that cannot fail to leave the audi
ence In a cood humor.
In addition to these programme num
bers there will be a Tschalkowsky an
dante, repeated by request

places previously described in the series,

I THE WILEY B gLXEfrTggj
Club Guests Saw Clever Wrestling?
Match and Gymnastic Events.
"And just to think that T saw a really,
truly wrestling- match," said a young
woman leaving the ladies' night enter
tainment at the Multnomah Club last
evening.
There were others of the feminine ele
ment in the crowd of spectators that filled
the bleachers and gallery of the gymnasi
um of the clubhouse almost to suffoca
tion, to whom the novelty of a wrestling
exhibitionheretofore exclusively enjoyed
by the men of the club appealed most
strongly, and It is safe to eay this event
was the most novel and interesting on
the programme.
The bouts were between Bert Nielsen
and Dick Price for a gold medal and the
best two out of three. Price won the
contest In one of the best exhibitions that
the club has seen. Nieleen was much
out of condition, but threw Price in the
first bout by.a flying fall, from a half-
b nelson hold, in 15 seconds after the men
stepped on the mat In the second bout,
the men wrestled for five minutes before
a fall was secured, and the changing for
tunes of the two athletes were greeted by
enthusiastic cheers, to which the presence
of the guests of the club lent a peculiar
shrillness.
"O-o-oh. the little man wins' called out
an enthusiastic member of the ladies'
annex, as Price threw his opponent on
his back, after whirling him In the air
witu a crotch hold. The last and deciding
bout was won by Price also, who threw
Nielsen in a flying fall, that took only 25
seconds to execute.
The sprightly music of the orchestra
accompanying the gymnastic programme
made the evening pass off quickly and
enjoyably. Under the direction of Phys
ical Instructor Robert Krohn the juniors
were put through a neat drill on the ap
paratus work, five classes performing sim
ultaneously. The Juniors also went
through a novel pole drll, and gave a
good exhibition of dumb-bell work. One
of the most Interesting jiumbera Was the
drill of the junior girls, led by Miss Buck
enmeyer, who made their debut in a series
of evolutions to the accompaniment of
music. Tne gymnastic exhibition was
completed by leaping on the springboard
and over the long horse, by the members
of the senior class, whose agility in the
difficult work reminded the observer of
the feats of circus performers.
James Duff did a clever1 juggling turn,
worthy of a professional performer, and
the same is true of the tumbling exhi
bition of Messrs. Rjman and Wetzler.
The Multnomah Mandolin Club, under the
direction of H. A. Webber, made its debut
in two entrancing numbers, "The High
wayman" and "The Rounders," which
were warmly applauded. The evening
closed by a clever exhibition of baton
swinging, by A. H. Rebe.
The entertainment was in charge of the
following committees: Indoor athletics,
Frank E. Watklns, chairman; J. V. Zan,
H. Greenland and Arthur Bowman; recep
tion committee, J. V. Zan, M. H. White
house, C. D. Lewis, Frank Dekum and
George Dekum.

Captain W. A. Johns, of Astoria, wa3
In Portland yesterday on his way to the
Union hot springs. Too much health, ro
bustness and appetite are all that is the
matter with him, and he expects to tone
these down by a course of stewing and
steaming at the springs. He has no in
tention of drinking any of the water, or
any other water, for that matter.
WASHINGTON, April 30. Senator
Mitchell, for the first time since being
taken 111, went out today for a drive
about the city. Yesterday for the first
time he left his room in the hotel to go
to dinner. The Senator is apparently In
the best of health, and in fact declares
he feels like a "fighting cock." Weather
permitting, he will go out daily, and by
the end of the week hopes to resume his
Senatorial duties.
NEW YORK, April 30, Northwestern
people registered at New York hotels to
day as follows:
From Portland Mrs. Wartman, at- the
Grand, E. Closset, Jr., at the Broadway
Central
From Seattle F. Waterhouse, at the
Netherlands.
Secretary Hay Will Be Aalcedto In-
form Foreign Governments of
the Exposition.
It 13 the judgment of the provisional
committee which Is laying the foundation
for the Lewis and Clark Centennial and
American-Pacific Exposition that Presi
dent McKlnley should break ground at
the City Park or some other point In
Portland If the site for the fair cannot
be selected before the President's visit.
There Is some opposition to this plan on
the ground that the ceremony would be
symbolical and that it would mislead the
President. At the meeting of the commit
tee yesterday afternoon, C. J. Owen pre
siding in the absence of Chairman Long,
the opinion was general that the Presi
dent should break ground. Mr. Owen,
Dan McAllen, A. H. Devers and others
said it would make no difference wherp
the ceremony would take place so long as
it was in the City of Portland. On mo
tion of Mr. McAllen, the committee put
Itself on record In favor of having ground
broken, and Mr. Owen and City Attorney
Long were appointed to make the neces
sary arrangements with the reception
committee.
Chairman Long, who is going to Wash
ington on business before the Supreme
Court, offered, if authorized, to confer
with the railroads in the Interest of the
exposition, and to ask Secretary Hay, of
the State Department, to bring the fair
to the notice of foreign governments. The
committee gladly authorized Mr. Long
to take such action as he thinks Is proper.
