12 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1903. ALL THE MONEY HIST S. Morton Cohn Answers Shields' Suit SAYS HE MADE NO CONTRACT Proprietor of Arcade Theater Claims Services of His Former Manager Were Unsatisfactory and He Was Discharged. Edward Shields, tvho successfully con ducted Shields Park and numerous other amusement attractions during years past. Is denounced by S. Morton Cohn as an incompetent manager. Mr. Colin makes this statement as part of art affidavit -which he filed in the State Cr-ult Court yesterday afternoon In response to the suit of Shields asking for the appoint ment of a receiver for the Arcade Theater. Shields demands that he be. allowed to continue as manager of the Arcade for a. year, contending that he has a contract to that effect. This Cohn denies and states that Shields' services -were unsatis factory. Mr. Cohn In explaining In his affidavit why the agreement between, himself and Shields was broken, begins by stating that lie Is the sole proprietor of the Arcade Theater and the only person who has any money invested In the venture. There are he asserts, no debts or claims out standing against the theater, and Cohn t urtlier avers that he is the sole lessee, is solvent and a freeholder and Is respon sible for any judgment -which might be obtained against him. Cohn also alleges that he fitted up the house at his own expense and according to his own judgment, and that Shields did not oversee or direct the constructl6n or equipment of the place, or perform any services In connection therewith for which he has not been fully and completely paid. Cohn admits that he engaged Shields as manager of the theater, agreeing, to pay him -weekly 30 per cent of the receipts as long as his services as manager were' satisfactory to him, but he- never agreed to keep the theater running for any length of time, or to continue It In any way which was not absolutely optional with him. Shields says Cohn entered his service and the discharge of his duties was unsat isfactory from the first day, and detri mental to the business interests of the theater, proving him utterly Incompetent to discharge the duties he assumed. Shields deceived him, Cohn states, and was entirely unable to accomplish what he undertook. At the expiration, there fore, of one week, Cohn alleges he In formed Shields that his work did not suit and paid him for the week as agreed, and that Shields acquiesced in his discharge and requested a new agreement, asking for another week's trial. This Cohn de clined to consent to. Cohn further alleges that the business of the theater Is con ducted from week to week, and that the proprietor Is responsible for the payment of the salaries of performers, for rent, lights and advertising, and that all the property which could come Into the hands of a receiver would be the stage, the cur tains and chairs, and that there Is no fund in the business upon which to draw, so that the receiver could continue the same, except the conjectural support of the public Cohn avers that so far as he has been able to ascertain, and according to his fcest knowledge and belief. Shields Is finan cially irresponsible, and the connection of his name with the theater has been a detriment and It will require the active, energetic and personal attention of Cohn, together with large expenditures upon his part, to make the business self sup porting. The capability of the performers, the salaries to be paid them, their powers of attraction, Cohn alleges, are the factors upon which the business depends, and these, he asserts, can be judged only by one with the necessary funds to- test and prove the same. In conclusion, It Is urged that no benefit could possibly re sult from the appointment of a receiver, and no Injury could occur from a refusal to appoint one. Bernstein & Cohn appear as attorneys for the defendant. CHARGED WITH MURDER. Deliberate Killing Laid at Door of Samuel Baumann. A charge of murder in the first degree was filed, against Samuel Bauman, who shot and killed Adolph Burkhardt at Hills dale, on the night of October 31, yester day by District Attorney John Manning. The information sets forth that the killing was done unlawfully, feloniously and of deliberate and premeditated malice, which is the usual form in such cases. The wit nesses whose names appear on the infor mation are H. B. Hayward and Harry Fuller. .' Ed and A. R. Mendcnhall, attorneys for Bauman, will apply, for his release on ball this morning in the State Circuit Court. The constitution provides that murder shall not be bailable when the proof Is evident or the presumption strong. Coun sel will endeavor to convince the court that neither of these two facts Is the case, and that consequently Bauman is enti tled to bail. The attorneys may attempt to call witnesses to show that the case against the accused is not a strong one. LEAPED FOR LIFE. Chinaman Testifies How James Con way Made Him Jump. James Conway, a young man of good address, charged with attempting to rob Sim Tim, a Chinese, was tried yesterday before Judge Frazer and a jury and was convicted of assault. He was fined $100, with an alternative of serving 50 days In the county jail. His attorneys, Frank Schlegel and J. H. Murphy, stated that Conway's friends would probably raise the money and pay the fine. Sim Tim testified that Conway enticed him into his room in a Sixth-street lodging-house and then attempted to rob him, drawing a large knife, which he used In a threatening manner. Yim said that to effect his escape ho jumped out of the window on to the street, spraining his ankle. In the courtroom he was unable to walk without assistance. Conway told an entirely different story. He said he was intoxicated and the Chi nese followed him Into 'his room and as Eaulted him. He retaliated, and Sim Tim became frightened and jumped through the window. He said he tried to stop him from doing so. A COMMON SCOLD. George Winters Says His Wife Made Him Sick. George A. S. Winters, In his divorce suit against his wife, Bertha E. Winters, has filed an amended complaint in which he makes numerous additional charges against her. In March, 1902, Winters alleges that William Gable called at their home, leaving his umbrella on the porch, which was missing when he started to go. Mrs. Winters had left the premises and gone to a neighbor's. Winters states that he and Gable were searching for the urn hrella when Mrs. Winters returned and remarked: "What are you critters do ing here?" Several months later and after the ac cidental death of his brother-in-law, BREAKS THE WORLD'S RECORD BY CLEARING ir:Twt-iv;:.. wim 'wiiyiai.... Ki. ,r, ,mm '--n " i.nn."

In the office of the Title Guarantee & Trust Company, in May, 1902, Winters says his wife, becoming dissatisfied with a certain deed, remarked in the hearing of P. P. Dabney and several other per sons: "I knew you were trying to do me," and speaking afterward, said: "You were trying to swindle roe. I would not believe you if you swore on a stack of Bibles as big as this room." Winters further alleges that there was a revolver at their home, which Mrs. Winters con cealed, and one day she took It from Its hiding place, and referring to the Drews murder, said: "The old man got what he needed and there are others who had better look out or they will get. the same." 1 Winters asserts that his wife Is in sanely Jealous and Is a common scold. He says she neglects her household duties and sometimes failed to prepare his meals. Because of the cruelties of the defendant. Winters alleges that he has been made sick and unable to labor. They were married on August 2L 1900, and have no children. PRINCIPALS MAY NOT APPEAR Attorneys May Argue Demurrers in Land Fraud Cases Today. Tills morning is the time selected for Miss Marie Ware, Horace G. McKlnley, S. A. D. Putcr and Emma L. Watson to plead to the indictments returned against them by the recent Grand Jury In the land fraud cases. Forgery and con spiracy are the charges, but It is probable that their attorneys will argue demurrers to the Indictments before Judge Bellinger and that the principals will not appear for the purpose of pleading. When the time arrives for the pleadings, the court announced that If the defense desire to introduce any dilatory proceed ings they would be considered. Although a warrant Is out for Emma L. Watson, up to a late hour last night the United States Marshal's Office had been unable to! locate her, and unless she ap pears voluntarily today it may require considerable research to produce the much-wanted woman. Thought He Was Lucky. Thomas Wood, a negro, convicted Wednesday of stealing a diamond ring from M. Zul, a Japanese, .was sentenced to two years In the penitentiary by Judge George yesterday. As he was being taken from the courtroom to the county jail Wood congratulated himself upon his good luck. He salil he thought it was a case of como seven come eleven, and he ex pectecLto get at least seven years. Court Notes. Nellie Meier was divorced fromvFrank X.

MOBILE, Ala., Nov. 6. Dr. C. A. Carey, State Veterinarian of Alabama, and W. H. Glltner, of Eminence, Ky., are arranging to immunize, by inocula tion, 50 head of Northern-raised cattle from the Texas cattle fever. They are of the opinion that inoculation will prove extremely beneficial to stock interests in the entire South. Said Dr. Carey in this connection: "The process of inoculation with which we are going to treat these animals, from experiments at the Auburn station, seems to be the solution of the cattle disease problem. Northern cattle, as soon as they reach Auburn, will be In oculated with blood of the Immune ani mal, containing the parasite which causes the fever. This causes the disease in a mild form, very similar to the form of smallpox caused by vaccination. The cattle then become Immune from the fever." Mr. Glltner Is among the largest cattle raisers in the South. For Wireless Telegraphy. ROME, Nov. 6. The government has ordered the beginning of the work of construction of the extraordinarily pow erful wireless telegraph station for the establishment of communication between Italy and the Argentine Republic A Safe Hcmefly for CourIis and Colds in Children. v As a safe medicine for the cure of coughs and colds, nothing will compare with Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mr Frank O'Hara, of Franklinvllle, N. Y., has this to say concerning its use in his home: Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is our remedy for all kinds of coughs, colds and lung affections. Wc find it especially good with our family of small children, as it is always desirable to give the little ones something that Is free from harmful after effects, and that Is Just why we like this remedy. We have every confidence in It and have used the medicine very success full in our family." For sal hv oil 1 druedsts. SrSjSSfeSisl THE MAMMOTH STEAMSHIP ALGOA, PICKED UP BY VERMONT BARK ABBEY PALMER TOWED INTO VICTORIA. Steamer From Portland Found the Vessel Drifting Helplessly 140 Miles Southwest of Flattery. VICTORIA, B. C, Nov. 6. Dismasted and almost a wreck, the American bark Abbey Palmer, owned in San Francisco, and 22 days out from Honolulu In ballast, was towed Into port this morning by the British steamer Vermont, loaded with car go from Portland for South Africa, which picked her up 140 miles southwest of Cape Flattery. She was drifting helplessly be fore the wind. " The Abbey Palmer ran into a furious gale from the eastward on Tuesday, which dismasted her. Captain Johnson put sev eral bottle messages overboard, for he ang the crew expected that they would never reach shore. Twenty hours after the ves sel was dismasted the steamer Vermont was seen. The Palmer will be libeled for $30,000 in a salvage claim to be made against her by the Vermont. The bark's hull is not damaged. Three years .ago the Abbey Palmer col- , lideri with thi !!nr Rmnresq nf .Tnnan ntt Flattery. She was formerly the British ship Blalrmore, which turned turtle some years ago in San Francisco harbor, drown ing her crew. GLAD TO GET AWAY. Captain of Kobe Orders His Ship Dec orated. The best-satisfied man on the water front yesterday was the captain with the unpronouncable name who presides over the destiny of the Austrian steamship Kobe. He has been: In almost continual trouble since he arrived because of a mis take made In his charter, and became im pressed with a poor opinion of Portland and shipping people here generally. His departure has been delayed several times, and when the skipper learned yesterday that the last of the cargo was in place he sent word down to the mate to dress the snip In her signal flags. The captain was asked why he was decorating the vessel and replied that it was to show his satis faction at getting away from the "Bort land tevlls." The captain, however, has not fared so badly here, and will probably make more money on, this trip than he ever made before. He got a better rate than any of the other tramp steamers, and received besides a bonus of $1500 for taking a lot of lumber to Calcutta, where he would probably go anyway. DREDGING AT DRYDOCK. Portland Has Half Completed the Basin. When the port of Portland dredge Port land completes her present job at the mouth of the Willamette she will return to the drydock site and finish the excava tion of the basin. Before going down the river the dredge dug a, place 500 feet long by 150 feet wide, the dimensions of the drydock, and 20 feet deep. This is half the depth necessary to float the dock. The remainder of the work will not be so diffi cult as the first part, as the heavy ma terial that lay near the surface has been removed. Besides the basin the dredge will also excavate a channel leading up to the dock. The drydock will be ready for business some time before February 1. ARRIVAL OF THE ELDER. . Officers Did Not Feel the Effect of the Storm. The steamer Elder arrived up from San Francisco at 6 o'clock last night The officers report a good passage up' the coast, with fair weather until Thursday afternoon, when the sea roughened. The heavy gale that blew off the mouth of the river Thursday was not encountered, or at least only the edge of It, and it Is evident that the storm did not extend far south. The coasting steamer Navarro also ar rived in yesterday. The moderating of the gale and the change In the wind per mitted the steamers Columbia and Aurella, which had been barbound at Astoria for a day, to pass out at noon on their way south. Ship Nearly Capsized. ASTORIA, Nov. 6. (Special.) The tug Sea Rover, which sailed from San Fran cisco for this port yesterday, will tow the ship Two Brothers down the coast. That the ship Is topheavy and that the crew had some reason for refusing to go to sea In her was shdwed during the storm yes terday, when thevessel nearly capsized while lying at anchor in the lower harbor. i NGaIe Quiets Down. ASTORIA, Or., Nov. 6. Tho storm which has raged along the North Pacific Coast for the past five days, with brief lulls, quieted down this morning, and the steamship Columbia put to sea for San Francisco,, after having been delayed 4S hours.

The per capita cost of maintaining public schools Is greater In the Far West than In any other portion of the United States, save Massachusetts. The annual report of Hon. W. T. Harris, Commissioner of Education, embodies a set of statistics throwing interesting light on this question. While the average cost per capita of maintaining public schools in the whole United States is only $2.99, it costs $4.23 In Oregon, $4.54 In Wash ington, $3,82 in Idaho, and $4.94 In Cali fornia. This latter figure, by the way, is only 2 cents under the per capita cost of maintaining the public schools of Massa chusetts, said to be the best In the coun try. Notwithstanding the fact that during the past fiscal year there were 100,659 pu pils enrolled jin the public schools of Ore gon, and 136;624 in the schools of Wash ington, the respective cost of maintain ing the public schools of the two states was $1,802,455 and $2,S05.455. Idaho, in whose schools 46,117 pupils were enrolled, expended $689,636 for maintenance. In this connection It Is Interesting to POINTS TO YOU How Coffee Sets Its Grip and Is Never Suspected. It Is surprising how many people never suspect that coffee Is causing all their trouble until they are Anally knocked out or somo disease caused by coffee has be come chronic and almost Incurable. Even In chronic cases the chances are a shift from coffee to Postum Food Coffee will build the sick one up and in time effect a cure. Sometimes this happens with surprising promptness. A lady of Syracuse. Neb.. isays: "Last Spring a year ago my doctor told me I would have to stop drinking coffee. I had heart trouble so bad that the least excitement would cause me to choke up so I could scarcely get my breath and I was so nervous I could not bear to have the children move around the house. "Doctor told my husband to get Postum for me but before he did so we moved to the country and I fell back on milk and water, but even such exertion as climbing a flight of stairs caused my heart to hurt me so I would feel sick and faint "This continued all Summer until In the Fall we again moved to Syracuse. There I got some Postum and began to feel so much better after using one pack age that I continued Its use altogether and I am now better in realth than I have ever been before In eight years. I am stronger and fleshier than I ever was an'd have not had the headache but three times since I began to use Postum a year ago. The change certainly seems won derful for' I have had no return of the heart trouble at all and I never get tired telling what Postum has done for me." Names given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Look in each package for a copy of 'the famous little book, "The Road to Well vllle." ' a EVER FLOATED S??2sEe& oA note some of the general returns for the entire United States. The aggregate num ber of pupils enrolled in public elementary and secondary schools was 15,92o,SS7. or 20.2S per. cent of the estimated population of the country In 1902. To Instruct these pupils, 439,596 teachers were employed, at an aggregate salary of $150,013,734. The public school property of the entire coun try Is valued at $601,571,307, to which sum $41,753,48S was added last year, either In buildings, sites or furniture. The total expenditure for the maintenance of this vast public school system for the year 1902 Is $235,20S,463. MAY EEBEL AGAlNST TAX. Danish West Indies Appear to Be on the Eve of a Revolution. ST. THOMAS, Danish West Indies, Nov. 5. Dissatisfaction with the report of the Danish Commissioners favoring an enor mously increased taxation of the Danish West Indies is growing daily. There Is now a possibility that the people of the Islands may take matters in their own hands. It Is not Impossible that a revolu tion will follow. , A crowded meeting, led by the most in fluential citizens, for a discussion of the new recommendations of the Danish Com missioners, ended In great disorder, fol lowing the chief speakers advice" that they rise in revolution, as did the American colonies against Great Britain because of the tea tax.
