16 THE MOBNING O REG ONI AN, TUESDAY, JULY 7, 1903. ATTACK THE LAW Validity of Sailor Boarding House Statute Questioned. SAID TO BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL finit to Hare Legislation. Set Aside Entered by White and Smitk, Who Would Hare Peace Officers En joined From Arresting;. Suit to have the sailor boardins-liouse license law declared unconstitutional and to enjoin the various peace officers from enforcing it was flled in the State Cir cuit Court yesterday by Harry White and William Smith. The defendants named in the com plaint are S. 3kL Mears, Herbert Holman and Edward W. Wright, comprising the Board of Commissioners for licensing sailor boarding-houses; District Attorney John Manning. Sheriff W. A. Storey, Constable W. E. Jackson and Constable A. D. Keenan, Ben BIglin, Harbor-Master; Charles Hunt, Chief of Police, and William Reid and Waldemar Seton, Jus tices of the Peace. The court Is asked to restrain and en join the defendants from molesting Smith or White in their business of conducting a sailor's boarding-house or hotel in Portland for the purpose of boarding, lodging or harboring sailors, seamen or apprentices or persons seeking employ ment as such, without first having ob tained a license from the Board of Commissioners, and from pursuing Smith and White therefor or causing them or their employes to be arrested or crim inally prosecuted. Smith and White further pray that If they are not entitled to this relief a writ of mandamus -will be Issued by the court compelling the - commissioners, Mears, Holman and Wright, to issue a license to them authorizing Them to carry on their business of keeping a sailor boarding-house. The complaint recites the license law passed by the last Legislature and states that on July 2, 1903, Smith and White applied to the Board of Commis sioners for a license, presented satisfac tory evidence of their respectability and competency, and of the suitableness of their bbordlng-house accommodations, of fered to file a bond in the sum of foOOO, but that the commissioners refused to grant the license. The act of the Legislative Assembly to license sailor boarding-houses Is al leged to be unconstitutional and passed in violation of section 20, article 1, sec tion 23, article 4, and section 30, article 4, of the blU of rights. It Is alleged that the act grants to certain citizens privileges and immu nities which do not apply equally to all citizens of Oregon; also that Herbert Holman is not qualified to act as a commissioner because he was a member of the State Senate at the time of his appointment. The business of keeping a sailor boarding-house is asserted to be legiti mate, and Smith and White say they have invested large sums of money in it and established a substantial, profitable trade. They allege that if they carry on the business without a license they are threatened with arrest and prosecution. The case was et lor hearing before Judge Cleland on Thursday. XO MONEY FOR THEM. Chicago Commission-House Wants Uncle Money Loaned Sheepmen. Suit to recover 522,520. on a sheep deal has been commenced in the State Circuit Court by the Mallory Commission Com pany, of Chicago, against J. E. Sherar and Charles H. Shurte, doing business at Bllensburg as Sherar & Shurte; John A. Little, of Antelope, and the First National Bank of The Dalles. Sherar & Shurte since 1899 have been engaged in buying and selling sheep in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Minnesota, Illinois and elsewhere, and be came indebted to the Mallory Commission Company, so it la alleged in the com plaint. This indebtedness on December 9, 1901, amounted to $30,000, which was afterwards reduced to 522,520. The money advanced by the company, it is asserted, was used, by 6herar & Shurte in the purchase of 5674 ewes in Montana, of which all but 2542 were afterwards sold and the money remitted to the Mallory Commission Company, and credited. The remaining sheep were brought Into the State of Washington and a chattel mort gage waa executed by Sherar & Shurte in favor of the company, covering the flock, increase and all wool. The mortgage was recorded irt Kittitas County. Notwithstanding the mortgage and in violation "of the confidence reposed in them, It is averred that Sherar, who was in charge of the sheep, without any notice to his partner, Shurte, sold the entire band of sheep to John A. Little, of Ante lope. This was done in March, 1903, be fore lambing time, and before the wool was clipped. The purchase, price was $)2S0. The expense account against the sheep at the time was $1710, and it is alleged that the sale of the band before lambing or clipping was contrary to good business Judgment, and that the price paid was grossly Inadequate. The complaint further recites that Sherar and Little both knew of the existence of the chattel mortgage and of the claim of the Mallory Commis sion Company, and that they conspired to defraud the company. Little, it is alleged, executed to the First National Bank of The Dalles a chattel mortgage on the sheep to secure $1500, and it is further asserted by the plaintiff that Sherar has deposited $7500 in the bank, which he alleges to be the net proceeds of the sale. In this connection, however, the Mallory Commission Company says the money was borrowed from the bank by Little for the purpose of lending ap parent bona fides to the purchase, and it was not Intended that the money should be used by Sherar as his own, except as security to Sherar for his part of the profits which he and Little should derive from the fraudulent transaction. But Sherar, having become alarmed by de mands upon him. intends to clalinthe sale A' the sheep was genuine and withdraw the money from the bank, and use It aa his own. The wool clipped by Little, stored at Ellensburg, and the money Jn the bank has been attached by the Mallory Com pany, and the appointment of a receiver is asked for. The bank's only part in the transaction Is that it loaned, or has in its control, the money referred to. O'Day & Tarpley, and Williams, Wood and Linthlcum appear as the plaintiff's ' at torneys. Judge O'Day states that he received a letter yesterday stating, that Little acted honestly, and is willing to turn over the property on the return of the money which he put up. COUNTY SELLS PROPERTY. First Sole of. Lots Acquired Through Delinquent Tax Purchases. The first sale of property of many pieces acquired by Multnomah County through delinquent tax purchases was made yes terday morning. Lot 3, block L Abend's Addition, near Alblna, was sold to A. L. Minor, of St. Johns, for $45. The taxes against the lot amount to $3.17, and run back to 1SSS. If the owner never ap pears to redeem Minor acquires title 'to the property, and the fact that he bid so much- denotes that he knows all about the previous history of the lot. The county has a great deal of tax property to sell, and some time ago preparations were made to begin the sale yesterday morning and continue It until every piece hadbeen disposed of.' Coun ty Clerk Fields, however, has been un able to complete the list. One cause of delay is that the books have been so much in use by the general public, who desire to learn if they own anything on which they have not paid. -The sale proper will not begin for two or three weeks yet, and will be continued from cay to day to avoid legal complications, as the law specifies the first Monday In July as the starting time. A list of tho property will be published as soon as possible for general information. - After Baseball Club. Peter Hobklrk, tho builder who holds a claim against the Portland Baseball Club of the Pacific National League for $2150, balance due for erecting the grand stand and bleachers at the grounds at Hawthorne Park, yesterday flled a Hen against the property. The original cost was $4150, and Hobklrk was paid $2000. Tho officers of the club are: Dr. Emmett Drake, president; John J. Grim, mana ger, and W. H. Lucas was manager of the league. As the club was recently dropped from the league, Drake and his associates no longer have any use for the grounds. Court Notes. John Nelson has sued Marian Nelson for a divorce on the ground of desertion in December, 1501. Mrs. Jennie Cooper has flled suit against Frank W. Cooper for a divorce on account of desertion beginning in 1S9S. They were married in 1S79. DAIRYMEN ARE ANXIOUS Condensed Milk Factories Use Up All the Supply. Proprietors of creameries throughout the Willamette Valley are inclined to take rather a gloomy view of the situa tion in regard to their business. They say that the number of cows has been in creasing and the Willamette "Valley was In the way of becoming one of the great est dairying sections of the country, but these prospects now appear to be blighted. There are two things which tend to in jure the creamery business. One is the labor question, It being almost impossible to- secure men to milk cows, and the other is the condensed milk business. The establishments for condensing milk are increasing. The one in operation at For est Grove is said to be the largest on the Coast, and the one at Hillsboro is to be extended and will take in the small one at Glencoe. There is also talk of one being established at Tillamook. There ia no limit to -the market for their product. Several dairymen discussing the situ ation yesterday said the condensers are going to drive the creameries back into outlying sections, as it Is difficult for a creamery to maintain itself in the neigh borhood of a condenser. The milk condensing business is against the increase of cows, as all the milk Is used up by them, and there is no skim milk left to raise calves on. Farmers who desire to raise calves to Increase the numbers of their herds will have to In vent some substitute for milk to feed them on. They can obtain an irregular supply of food for their calves from tho condensers In the shape of condensed milk which has fermented. In all can neries of condensed milk or anything else, there is always . a percentage of "wellheads," that is, cans the contents of which have fermented or undergone a change which renders it unfit for hu man consumption. Milk of this kind is not spoiled for calf food. This supply, however, is Irregular. In regard to the question of labor, all agree that it is very difficult to procure milkers. Farm laborers will have nothing to do with milking cows, and men en gaged for this purpose will not stay long. Milking calls them out early and late, and they do not like this. Milking machines have been brought to such perfection that they milk cows very well, imitating even the motion of a milker in squeezing and releasing the grasp of the teat, but the cows do not take kindly to tho machines, and will not "give 'down" their milk freely to them. The only solution of the labor ques tion Is to find men who will milk, or cows which will submit to be milked by a ma chine, and the unfortunate dairyman does not know where to find either. In the early days of sugar-beet raising, the growers had great trouble in finding men who would weed the young beets. This trouble has been overcome in some districts by the introduction of Mormon families with from 10 to 20 children, all of whom are utilized for weeding beeta In the season. Whether any such relief can be secured by dairymen remains to be seen. If practically all the milk produced 'in this region Is to be made into condensed cream to send abroad and no calves can be raised nor" butter made, a curious and not pleasant condition, of affairs will be brought about. THIS STRIKE IS WANING Telephone Linemen Are Not Receiv ing; Much Support In California. Tho strike of the telephone linemen does not appear to be in a flourishing condition. They have thus far gained nothing particular in their fight against the Pacific States Telephone and Tele graph Company, and have in many places not even received the support of the central labor bodies, which correspond to the Federated Trades Council in Port land. No action has been taken by the local council in regard to the strike of tho linemen and the members appar ently do not wish to become entangled ,in the feud. In California the turn of affairs Is going decidedly against the linemen, ac cording to the following communication from the San Francisco headquarters, re ceived at the local office yesterday: "Strike leaders have notified the rank and file, unofficially, that their cause in Southern California is lost. The Council of Labor at Los Angeles has turned down the "request for a boycott. All outside points in California are in very good shape except Oakland. "The Building Trades Council of San Francisco has ordered Local No. 6, Inside Wlremen's Union, to have such of Its members as formerly worked for the tel ephone company report back to work not later than Thursday next, the' Council taking the stand that it is merely a sympathetic strike and not for any griev ance. This means that if union men do not report for work next Thursday morn ing the Inside Wlremen's Union will be expelled from the Building Trades Coun cil. "The men are coming back, one by one, on commencing to find that the bulletins issued by the strike leaders are mislead ing, and also that the fact of men send ing in their union cards and returning to work in. various towns Is being sup pressed. "There are more men at work In San Francisco this morning than was the case the day after the strike opened. It is not thought that the leaders of the strlko will be able to hold the men together any length of time, as there Is great feeling of dissatisfaction among the men out of work."

SELLING DATES TO BE CHOSEN Round-Trip Hate From Chicago of $50 Is Probable Transcontinental Passenger Association Will Act at Its Next Meeting. Though the Transcontinental Passenger Association did not act upon the recom mendation of a special committee for low rates to Portland during the Lewis and Clark Exposition, there is a reasonable certainty that the question will receive favorable consideration at the next meet ing of the association. In any event, the round-trip rates from Eastern points will be as loty as any rate ever granted for a Pacific Coast meeting. This broad asser tion is made by railroad men who are fa miliar with the situation, and is made with a knowledge of the fact that a rate as low as $50 for a first-class round trip from Chicago has beca given to Coast meetings. The. directors of tho Lewis and Clark Fair who appeared before the meeting of the Transcontinental Passenger Associa tion held In Portland a short time ago asked for a round-trip rate equal to the one-way fare between Portland and East ern points. They are apt to receive a much better fare. The special committee, which has had the matter In charge has been composed of the general passenger agents of the Northern Pacific, Great Northern, O. R. & N., Oregon Short Line and Southern Pacific Charles S. Fee, chairman of the committee, wlli come to Portland before the next meeting of the passenger associa tion Is held, to confer with the directors of the Fair relative to special selling dates. The raIlroadswill not, as a matter of course, throw the low round-trip rates open for the entire six months the Fair will be in progress. This, it is held, would be a policy that would have a ruin ous effect upon general passenger traffic, and the road3 will Insist upon certain lim itations to their offer. The selling dates", however, will be fixed at the suggestion of the Lewis and Clark board of directors. While it is not stated that this Is true, it is believed by passenger officials on the Coast that one of the reasons why the Transcontinental passenger Association did not act upon the Lewis and Clark rates at Its Chicago meeting was because selling dates had not been agreed upon and there was no one In Chicago who could give a correct Idea, of the number of days when It would be advisable to put the low rates into effect This condition will be met at the next meeting. That the Western lines Intend to give cheap rates for the Lewis and Clark Ex position was made apparent yesterday. Assistant General Passenger Agent A. D. Charlton, of the Northern Pacific, received positive assurances that the concessions would be granted. He was handed a copy of the proceedings of the Chicago meet ing, and his road gave the pledge that the Lewis and Clark Fair will be accorded all It desires. Mr. Charlton authorized the statement yesterday that General Passenger Agent Fee would take up the question of Lewis and Clark rates when he visits the Coast, and that itvas the Intention of the North ern Pacific at least to give as cheap rates to Portland at that time as have ever been granted for a Coast! celebration or meeting. This assurance covers the rates given for the Midwinter Fair at San Fran cisco, as well as other attractions. It is generally known in railroad cir cles that tho northern lines are hoping to be able to put In a $50 round-trip rate from Chicago, and 545 from St. Paul, with other rates graded in accordance to the haul. The $50 rate Is the one which has recently been granted the Trans-Misslss-Blppl Commercial Congress for Its Seattle meeting, and the assurance of Mr. Charl ton that Portland will be given rates as low as any other city has ever received would seem to Indicate ,that the Northern Pacific Intended to guarantee a $50 round trip rate from Chicago. The Immense advantage of the $50 rate can be understood when it Is considered that the regular first-class fare between Portland and Chicago is $61.50. The rate war between St. Paul-Chicago lines has cut $3.50 off this figure, making the one way rate now in effect $5S. The round trip fare that will probably be given the Lewis and Clark Fair is $S better, there fore, than the directors had anticipated and asked. The disposition of all the Western lines Is toward granting the low round-trip rates during the Lewis and Clark Fair. This feeling Is so strong that It is de clared some of the roads would put the low fares Into effect if the Transconti nental Passenger Association withheld Its approval. The possibility of the passen ger association's objection Is, however, very remote. With more Information at hand the'rates are very apt to be author ized at the next meeting of the passenger association. GARDENS WIN FLAGS. Highland Improvement Association Awards Prizes to Contestants. Last Spring the Highland Improvement Association,' through the liberality of George M. Hyland, offered two flags as prizes for the best flower or vegetable garden, the competition to be open to boye, and prizes to be awarded July 3. A committee from tho Improvement as sociation inspected the gardens on that date and found two of them so nearly alike In merit that they decided to give first prize to both of them. The fortunate recipients were Frank Lilbura, 440 Pres cott street, and Harry Stokes, 455 Pres cott street, each of them receiving a wool bunting flag, 3 by G feet. The second prize was awarded to Frank Taylor, of 4S2 Prescptt street. Frank Is only S years old, but had worked diligently and succeeded In producing a very cred itable flower garden. He was given a bunting flag 2& by 4 feet. While the girls were not mentioned Edna Murray, of East Fourteenth and Wygant streets, tried her hand and did so well that the committee decided she should not be disappointed. A special prize, consisting of a beautiful silk flag, was provided for her. All of the boys and girls now see that It pays them to compete and there Is no doubt that a much larger number will enter the lists next year. TO OFEN STARK STREET Property Owners Would Straighten Roadway Out and Pay for It. The opening up of Stark street where it ends blindly on Twelfth is being talked of by property owners along the street The situation has been looked into by interested parties, and it Is found that the street could be put Jn much better shape at a slight expense. As tho street now runs there Is a bend at Twelfth, making almost a blind end ing. In a straight direction it Is less than 50 feet through to Burnside street. If the city should buy one lot on the corner of Twelfth and Stark streets, the street could be opened, and the entire Jof would not have to be used. Enough would be left, so the property owners say, to have a nice fountain and a small park on the- corner. The in eh who are promoting the enter prise propose that an assessment district be named along Stark street, and that tho property owners each pay an assess ment according to the beneflf they will derive from the opening. Many of the property owners along the street have been consulted on the matter, and as yet no opposition has been met. After the situation has been canvassed a.nd it is found that the greater proportion of the property owners are in favor of the opening tho matter will be laid before the City Council with a petition to order tho street opened. TRIED TO SELL A HORSli Defectives Block: the Game of John Carroll and John F. Murphy. John Carroll and John F. Murphy were arrested by Detective Simmons on a charge of"horee stealing. The cteed they attempted was a daring one, and but for the prompt actlona of the policemen they would have netted $75 In good cash for their venture. The stolen horse was the property of Charles Tllden, of Vancouver, Wash. The two men had gone to hl3 livery stable Sunday night and hired a horse and buggy. As soon as they were out of sight they whipped up the animal and came directly to Portland. They drove to a North-End livery stable, and there offered the horse and buggy for $75. The horse was a fine one, and worth much more money, and the owners of the stable became suspicious at once. One of them slipped away and telephoned to the Police Station of theoccurrence. "Tell them you will take It but have not the money on hand," said Detective Sim mons, who answered the 'phone. "Tell them that they will have to call tomorrow for their money." The stable men acted as advised, and the two went away think ing they had but to call around the next day for their money. Meanwhile Tllden had become alarmed at the absence of his team and telephoned to Portland to look out for the men. Yes terday morning the men called around for their money, but they were met by the owner of the horse and buggy and De tective Simmons who promptly placed them under arrest. COLLIDES WITH WAGON. R. W. Cnslclc Receives Serious In juries Beneath the Wheels. Serious If not fatal injuries were sus tained by R. W. Cuslck, an employe of the Union Meat Company, as he was go ing to his work yesterday morning. While riding down Morrison street on a bicycle he collided with "a delivery wagon and was badly crushed beneath the wheels. His jaw dnd shoulder blade were broken, his ear ground to a pulp, and It Is feared that his skull was injured. He was still alive last night, but was suffering intense pain, and was so restless that the strong est drugs failed to quiet him. Just how he fell beneath the wheels Is told differently by all witnesses, but the general opinion seems to be that it was entirely accidental. Cuslck was riding near the street-car track, and went to turn out on account of an approaching car. In crossing the rail of the track his wheel caught and caused him to fall. Tho delivery wagon coming along at a good speed caught him beneath the wheel?, and it Is regarded as almost a miracle that he was not killed Instantly. The patrol wagon was summoned a$ soon as tho accident happened, and the Injured man was taken to the Good Sa unarltan Hospital. Dr. A. J. Glesy was called and every possible attention was given the Injured man. It waa thought last night that he had chances of recov ery, but his condition was pronounced as critical. BOY PLEADS GUILTY. Chester Searls Is Bound Over to Ap pear Before Grand Jury. Chester Searls, the dime-novel hero in real life, who has made such an Impres sion at Long Beach during the past few weeks by posing as tho son of a wealthy gentleman, and stealing during tho night to keep up appearances, was arraigned be fore Judge Hogue yesterday morning and entered a plea of guilty to the charge of larceny. Chester had none of the bearing of the millionaire boy of a few days ago. His fine clothes that had been stolen had been taken away from him and returned to their owners, and the old suit In which hla Portland friends used to know him again adorned his form. "Guilty," he said, In meek tones, as the Judge read the charge against him, and he was quietly led back to the Jail, where ho will be confined to await his appear ance before the grand jury. TRIES TO END HIS LIFE. F. H. Taylor Swallows a Bottle of Aconite. F. H. Taylor, Junior member of the firm of Youngferdor & Taylor, building con tractors, attemped to end his own life Sunday night by swallowing the contents of a bottle of aconite. When seen yesterday he said that he was sorry his attempt had failed, and that he would yet take his own life. It was sup posed at the time that he had done the deed In a fit of drunken frenzy, for he had been drinking for several days, but his statements yesterday seem to show that the deed was premeditated. Taylor Is well known In Portland, hav ing lived here for a period of about 11 years. He resides at S50 Corbett street. Prior to entering business for himself last January Taylor was employed by the City & Suburban Railway Company as bridge construction foreman, at a salary of $125 per month. Making: Thorongh Repairs. The repairs that are under way at Engine No. 7's house, on the corner of East Third and East Pine streets, are meet thorough, and will leave that build ing In condition so It will not have to be touched for several years. The floor where the horses stand is being renewed and the quarters both below and above are being enlarged by appropriating the vacant space at the east end of the , building. From the back end of the building, form erly used as a Jail, the steel cage has been taken out to make room for the enlarge ment New doors will be placed In the front. Yesterday work was started on the Belgian block sidewalk at the front entrances. It is considered cheaper to make these permanent repairs than to do patch work, much of which had been done before. Arrested for Vngrancy. Fear of Imprisonment with all Its hor rors will not keep the negro population of Whltechapel from stealing. Even though Judge Hogue recently sentenced two colored women to serve terms of one year each on a charge of larceny, Charles Rogers reported to the police yesterday that he had been robbed of $20 In a negro dive. He was able, to Identify the woman who took his money. All the Inmates were promptly taken to the jail on charges of vagrancy. Irene Crawford Is thought by the man -to be the one that got the money, and a charge of larceny Is placed against her name. Grace Rogers, Grace Reed, Victoria Smith and Kate Gray were brought In on charges of vagrancy. LOW RATES TO THE EAST. The O. R. & N. Gives Long-Time Limit and Stopover.
