THIRTY CHINESE CAPTURED ttaror of Chinatown, Scld Sack, la In Party, but' Says He Wm Not Gambling Bailey and Gib son Malce the Arrests. The biggest and most Important raid pn a Chinese gambling-house that has token .place in this city for years oc curred last night. Policemen Bailey, and Gibson broke into a three-story frame house on the west side of Second 6treet, between Burnside and Couch, and arrest ed 20 persons charged with gambling, one of the prisoners being Seld Back, manager for the wealthy Chinese firm of Wing, Bing, Long, Kee & Co., and who Is known throughout Portland as the Mayor of Chinatown. The raid was well-planned. It came asv & big surprise, and threats were made by individuals In the crowd who saw the raid that they "would see lo It" that Policemen Bailey and Gibson Either lost their official stars or were Bent to another beat where they could hot work so much harm. It has been known to those on the ln iido for four or Ave days that games of chance were being operated In Ihe Second-street house, but the players were cautious and did not congregate In num bers -until last night. A rumor spread at that time that Police Sergeant Church, who usually conducts the raids, was busy Et the Elks' Fair, and the word was passed that It was "all right." Bailey End Gibson were left responsible for their beat, and about 10 o'clock they saw signs that play was in full swing. Bailey went to the rear entranco, while Gibson etood In front to catch any of the Chinamen who might wish to Jump over the bal cony. About 45 players must have been In the main gambling room, when Police man Bailey knocked for admittance. No reply was made, and, becoming tired of waiting, Bailey kicked In one panel of thef door, which was locked and barred with a stout bar of wood. Rather than tee the door destroyed, the Chinese open ed it. and Bailey ran Into the room. At the same time Chinamen ran upstairs to the third story and tried to escape by climbing on tho roof. Others Jumped fif teen feet from second-story windows, while other daring Celestials swung them selves from the balcony facing Second street, only to face Policeman Gibson's revolver. They sprang back, rather than race a bullet. Gibson then ran up the well-lighted stairs to rejoin Bailey, who Jternly ordered the gamblers to stand In one corner. A citizen ran to the police station for the patrol wagon. About $200 in gold and silver was found n one table, and there were chips and cards on three of the four green-colored iables. Those arrested had been busy at poker, black-jack and "21" when the raid stopped play. The crap table, which had a cover on it. had apparently not been used. Twenty-six persons were found In this room, Including Chinamen, Japanese and one white man, a German named Steve Colenbach. The room was well furnished, and the room adjoining was fitted up with a telephone, used no doubt to receive "tips" when a raid might be expected. The room is also equipped with electric bells. Other rooms to the west ward are fitted up as bedrooms. A crowd of about 400 persons rushed up to the house when the patrol wagon ar rived, in charge of Jailer J. F. Johnson and Driver Johnson. Then It was that threats were made to have the scalps of Bailey and Gibson, the two policemen who had made the raid. Tho prisoners were taken to the police station In three trips, and on the last trip a poker table was al so sent along. The prisoners gave these names: Seid Back, Dr. Ah Jung, Dr. Dock Wah, Kee Dock, Jue Sue, Hong Gee, Long Tatt, Gue Mou, Sing Lee, Tung Tom, Yung Kan, Jim Jung, Steve Colen bach. and these Japanese: Huch. Lee, Joe, Chung, Yuaml, Tami, Dounach, Ka ma, Saura, Yuma, Oski, Juna and Jaml. Thpy were all released on $25 each ball belfiK deposited for their appearance at the Municipal Court. Meanwhile, Bailey and Gibson were in dustriously searching the house, from ground floor to roof, for any gamblers who might still be hiding. When the offi cers climbed on the roof they found four very badly scared Chinamen hiding be hind a chimney, and the four were promptly sent to the police station. When the Oregonlan reporter first en tered the main gambling room Seld Back was standing near one of the gambling tables, in his shirt-sleeves. On being asked If he had any explanation to make, SeW Bark made this statement: "I called at this place. to see a Japanese fish erman, who owes me some money. That was my business here. I did not gam ble." "How long were you In the house be fore the police arrived?" was asked. "Only about ten minutes," was the re ply. Some of the escaping Chinamen took desperate chances with their lives In getting away. Two of them ran to the roof of another building and jumped about six feet across a skylight. One big China man, clad in a blue blouse, who Is known as a lawyer In the Chinese colony, was found in a bedroom upstairs, and he pro tested against his arrest, saying that he Jived in the house, and asserted that he was sick. He was taken along all the same, and was recognized as a man who spends , a good deal of his time in the Chamber of Commerce, when Chinamen get Into trouble. He denied that he had been gambling. MAY START PACKING PLANT "Wyomiuf? Man "Want SO Acres and Bonus of $25,000. A Wyoming man writes to the Board of Trade that ho Is ready to establish a packing-house plant at this city. His conditions are 525,000 and 50 acres of land as a bonus. At his own request his name is withheld, but it can be obtained by any Interested person who will call at the headquarters of the Board of Trade. The man gives high references and appears to mean what he says. He refers the Board to Thomas M. King, ex-vice-president of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad: John K. Co wen. ex-presldent of the same road: Samuel Spencer, president of the South ern Railway, and W. H. Newman, presi dent of the New York Central, who will vouch for his reliability. The man does not care to disclose at this time the names of his associates, but he writes that "one is a gentleman large ly interested in packing-house plants and thoroughly conversant with the busi ness." After hearing from the Board as to the chances for getting a bonus the man promises to visit Portland with his asso ciates, to look into the opportunity for a packing enterprise in this city. His let ters have a conservative business tone. He writes: "It appears, to begin with, that the number of suitable hogs from which to make good bacon is limited. An investment at first would have to corre spond to the source of supply, and also to the market for the product. I would say that the conditions would not justify a plant which would cost more than $330,000. Nor could there be expected em ployment for more than 150 or 200 men a day. "Should we undertake the. development of a packing-house business in Portland, we would put In an up-to-date plant, look ing to its extension from time to time. "It takes considerable ground for an enterprise of tjils kind. If Portland will give 50 acres of ground in a suitable loca tion and- $25,000 In cash and guarantee ex emption from taxes for three years, we will put In a complete plant as Indicated above. We assume, of course, that there will be no difficulty In securing an ade quate supply of good beef .cattle, sheep and hogs." LOOKING FOR A PASS. Middle Fork Pass Regarded as Most Desirable for Croa.jingr of Salt Lake-Coos Bay Line. ; EUGENE, Or., Sept. 1. Messrs. George Lyman Moody and C. E. Cook, locating engineers for the Salt Lake-Coos Bay Railroad, were. In Eugene today. The ob ject of their visit Is to view out the most desirable route for the new road. They have been over the McKenzIe Pass through the Cascade Mountains, and are now examining the Middle Fork Pass, which is generally considered to be the most desirable pass through the moun tains. The engineers are looking over the country, not only with a view to finding the cheapest route oier Jwhich to construct a railroad, but are alio observ ing tho business conditions andhe prob able traffic upon which the road may de pend for revenue. That the new road will use the Middle Fork Pass Is confidently believed by the best-informed persons here. f Looks Like Missouri Pacific. The foregoing dispatch tends toward confirmation of the theory that the Goulds are behind the Great Central Railroad project between Coos B&y and Salt Lake City. Some three months ago The Ore gonlan had a dispatch from Eugene tell ing of the activity of strange railroad surveyors in that vicinity who had been looking for a pass across the Cascade Mountains. J. A. Straight, of 'Eugene, took an active Interest in the operations, and he was said to have some connection with a movement to build a railroad across the range. At that time voice was given to the suspicion that the Missouri Pacific was interested in. the project. From .two other sources recently the posi tive statement has come that Missouri Pacific engineers had surveyed two routes across the Cascades one from the head of the middle fork of the Willamette, and the other from the head of the McKenzIe within the past four months. Now comes the news that Great Central engineers coming through from Coos Bay have reconnoltered the country west of those passes.with the indications that the Middle Fork Pass will be selected for the rail road. This would point to use of part of the survey of the Umpqua River Railroad from Drain down the river to Gardiner, and thence across to Coos Bay, joining the Belt Line Railway on the north side of the harbor. NORTHERN PACIFIC IX POSSESSION. Chnnge In Management of "Washing ton fc Oregon Railroad. VANCOUVER, Wash.. Sept. 1. (Spe cial.) A change of management of the Washington & Oregon Railroad was made today. Edmund Rice was succeeded by Newman Kline, of Tacoma, superintend ent of the Pacific division of the Northern Pacific. The change also reaches other officers. W. D. Darling, of St. Paul, will succeed A. C. O'Nell as chief of the engi neer corps, but what other changes will be made Is not known here. The change even affects section hands, all employes now going on the same basis of pay as Northern Pacific employes, while hereto fore they have been paid a higher scale. The construction of the road from Kalama to this place. Is now completed, and the transfer is practically a change from the constructing to the operating department of the Northern Pacific. BLACK BASS HERE, SURE. Thirty Pounds Offered fo Sale In Local Market. The question as to whether there Is black bass In the waters of this section was definitely settled Saturday, when 30 pounds of these fish were offered for sale In a Fourth-street market, and were quickly disposed of at an average of about 25 cents per pound. ThB largest of the lot weighed three pounds and was secured by a wealthy citizen. The bass were caught not far from Portland In a slough, but just how or where the fisher man declined to say. They were of the "big-mouth" variety, which is generally considered as inferior to the "little-mouthed" bass. The two varieties closely re semble each other, but may be easily dis tinguished, as the mouth of one extends behind the eye wherf it Is closed, while the other's does not. The small-mouth prefers gravelly or rocky bottoms, and fights desperately when hooked, while the large-mouth often live over weedy or muddy bottoms and are not so active when hooked. The bass Is generally highly esteemed, both as a game fish and for the table, but some do not prize them so highly and contend that their excellence depends largely upon the cooking. A black bass should be Bkinned, as the skin when scorched In broiling or frying has a bitter taste. Volumes have been written on the bass, but as the SO pounds mentioned are said to have been the first lot of black bass ever sold In the Portland mar ket, there is but little known about them here from personal experience. The home of the black bass is the great lakes and rivers of the South and West, but they have been Introduced in lakes and rivers East and West, and are now widely scat tered over the country. The small-mouth bass has been caught In the Willamette in many places, but none have been sent to market yet. RACES ON THE SQUARE SPORTING MAN .TALKS ABOUT THE SEATTLE MEET. $am Goodmiui Says 31 ark Schlussel Is : All "Wrong In Ills Charges of Crookedness. "If. Mark Schlussel had not lost a sum of money on a race, raised a row and been escorted from the track by a Dep uty Sheriff, he would never have written that letter to The Oregonlan roasting the Seattle races," said Sam Goodman, who has Just returned from Seattle after an eventful season in the North. "Mark," continued Mr. Goodman, "Is a good fel low, all right, but what he does not know about racing will fill a good-sized book, and what he does know will occupy a printed slip that you may paste in your hat for a aweatband." Mr. Goodman had read Mr. Schlussel's statement that the Seattle races were unfair.. "What the Sam Hill does Schlus sel know about racing?" he Indignantly inquired. "Here be talks about Vohlcer. Vohicer carried 122 pounds and Modder 100. They were at the post 15 minutes before the start, and In the break Vohlcer took the bit and carried the boy three-quarters of a mile before he could bo pulled up. Schlussel had bet on the race, and he made such a roar that he had to be eject ed from the track by a Deputy Sheriff. Of the fairness of the race there can be no question. Fullerton, of Vancoui'er, B. C, was one of the Judges, and our own Mike Wisdom was another. Nobody has ever questioned the honesty of either, and nobody can question it, for the men are well known In racing circles. "Nor can anybody say anything against the Clancy boys. Their horse Vohlcer was beaten simply by weight. They had 119 to 103 on Forest King, and when thejr found that Desmond was not the proper Jockey they put McNichols In the saddle. McNIchols, though, had no better luck. "Of tho poolroom Schlussel had no rea son to kick. Bids for the privilege had been advertised for and receh'ed, and the lowest was that of Quann Bros., Dixon & Co., which was $6100. The successful firm had books, auction pools and mutual?, and Schlussel had the privilege accorded to every racegoer of butting up against any of the throfe. It appears that he hit up against the wrong spot, or he. would never have been taken off the track by a Deputy Sheriff, and all would have been serene. All that Schlussel has said about Redelshelmer and Vandevanter and the Clancy boys is he rankest kind of bosh, for there are no more thorough sports men in the Northwest than these men. But there is no use commenting upon hii remarks. He admits that he went out to the racetrack at Seattle to tell people who were bred to tho business how to run that business. They disregarded his advice, as any good horseman would, and so he' gets angry and writes a letter." TAKES A BATH; COST, ?50 Portland Lavryer Has a Palnfnl Ad venture In "Washington. There is a good story going the rounds about a Portland lawyer who owns some property in Toledo, Cowlitz County, Wash ington. The lawyer dropped down one day last week to look at his land, and as the weather was very warm he thought a bath would be a great comfort. But the only place where he could take a swim was In a river which was within the city limits. There was nobody within a half mile of the place, however, and so he proceeded to bathe. When he emerged from the water he met the town watch man, who immediately placed him under arrest. He was taken before the Recorder, who taxed him $50 for the use of the water. "Fifty dollars!" ejaculated the lawyer. "Say, as a matter of Information, do you charge the same rate all the year round?" "Yes. and you will have to pay It," an swered the Recorder. The lawyer left the court, and outside he met a friend, who advised him to ab sent himself a few days in the hope that the Judge might relent and remit a por tion or all the fine. But the Recorder was not of the relenting kind, and when the defendant did not appear within two days he Issued an execution against the prop erty for tho collection of the fine. The property was declared in "quarantine," and its sale set for today, but a settle ment was reached yesterday and the case was dismissed. The lawyer will stay away from Toledo In he future, as he thinks the tax for baths Is altogether too high. LOW RATES TO COAST. O. R. & N.

FAY Fall Explanation of That Timber Land Transaction. PORTLAND, Sept. 1. To the Editor.) To those who are the best acquainted with Charles L. Fay, the fewest explan ations are necessary in regard to the un fortunate combination of circumstances which has resulted in the proceedings now pending in the courts in North Dakota; but I feel that, in Justice to him, the public should be fully Informed aB to the facts in the casef especially as I was fully cognizant of every detail of the timber dea which was the commencement of the matter. Early in 1900 some timber men in Wis consin, of which state Mr. Fay was for merly a resident, and where he was well and favorably known, applied to him to secure for them some claims, and he ac cordingly obtained options on three quar ter sections in Clackamas County, belong ing to two parties, Osborn and McCall, and submitted the proposition to the Wis consin buyers, who were represented by this man Dufur, who figures prominently in the pending proceedings. At that .time Mr. Fay and myself occupied the same office, and he consulted me about the deal, and I saw (and in many cases typewrote) the correspondence. He stated to the In tending buyers that he knew nothing of the quality or quantity of the timber. having never seen the claims, and that they must Inform themselves as to the value and extent of the timber. They ac cordingly delegated this examination to a timber cruiser named Brlggs, a Wau paca, Wis., man, who submitted to them a very favorable report, the result of which was that they authorized Mr. Fay to have the title examined, and In case of satisfactory title, to have deeds to the claims prepared. The title proving satis factory, the owners, McCall and Osborn, executed deeds direct to the Wisconsin parties, the deeds having been made out and the notarial acknowledgements taken by myself. The deeds were then ex changed for the money at a local bank. the owners paid and the deal presumably L closed, so far as Mr. Fay, who received oniy a commission ior nis services, was concerned. It seems, however, that this man Brlggs had cruised these same claims about 1894, for other parties, and did not again visit them, but made out his report from his old field notes, not knowing that forest fires had In the meantime visited the timber and made it comparatively the claims had been burnt over, he came to Portland and tried by threats to extort money from Mr. Fay, saying that unless he was "made whole," he would have mm taKcn DacK to Wisconsin under a criminal charge. This was In July, 1901, more than a year previous to the pro ceedings now instituted for extradition Mr. Fay naturally refused to be black mailed, he having acted In good faith throughout the transaction, and having done nothing which would render him liable legally or morally to prosecution. The subsequent action taken has been fully set out in The Oregonlan. I have known Mr. Fay intimately for 12 years, during nearly six years occupying the same office with him. and would un hesitatingly stake my life On his integ rity and uprightness. He Is a man who carries his religion Into his dally life, and measures all his actions by the Golden Rule. Many young men of Portland can testify how helpful ho has been to them when they were In distress, and how cheerfully he has given his time and mon ey to assist" them when they were in need of employment. His charity is of the kind that "thlnketh no evil." and a close association with such a man must make one think better of his species. R. I. ECKERSON. PERSONAL MENTION.

The report circulated in the United States by a news agency that the Turkish Gov ernment had addressed an abrupt note to United States Minister Lelshman, saying that it absolutely refused to further dis cuss the responsibility for the capture by brigands of Miss Ellen M. Stone, in Sep tember, 1901, as the outrage was not com mitted on Turkish territory. Is not . true. As a matter of fact, the question of the Porte's responsibility is indisputable, since the capture, payment of the ran som and liberation of the captives all oc curred In Turkish territory. The corre spondence on the subject of the measures taken for the discovery and arrest of the brigands continues, and the Insufficiency of the efforts displayed by the Turkish au thorities has been the subject of com plaint by the United States Legation.
