THE aiORNINGr OKEGONIAtf, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 190.
Policeman
GOOD-FELLOWSHIP is the name Of
ficer Dan. Connors applied to his treat
ment of C. Mcrriwethcr, a one-armed
man, -when placed on trial in the Police
Court yesterday morning for beatlnc the
cripple into insensibility.
ilerrltrether did not look like the objct
of the felicitations of good-fellowship.
His left eye was swollen shut, and bis
right one "was in deep mourning. In ad-,
ditlon there were several bruises and cuts
about his face. All In all. he looked very
much as if he had been playing football
with a locomotive.
Merrlwether said the assault made upon
him was cowardly, brutal, unwarranted,
unprovoked and unnecessary. In this
statement the testimony in the case
seemed to bear him out. It seems that
Connors, who. was under suspension from
the Police Department for alleged mis
conduct, took the cripple rom a saloon
and was leading him away when Merrl
wether objected to these familiarities on
the part of a total stranger and refused
to go further.
Connors, It appeared, then forced him to
go, and when the one-armed man made
several feeble passes the valiant police
man pounced upon him, beat him into in
sensibility, sent for the patrol wagon and
had the luckless cripple taken to the Po
lice Station and locked up on charges of
drunkenness.
It is evident from the testimony that
liquor played a very prominent part in
the affair. Officer Gruber, In charge of the
patrol wagon when Merrlwether was
taken in. testified that Connors appeared
to have been drinking, although ho was
not really drunk.
Connors own story of the affair Joes
not mitigate the cowardly assault in the
least. He said he saw the cripple put
out of a saloon at Fourth and Davis
streets, and in a feeling of good-fellowship
offered him a little goodly advice,
telling him to go home. Merrlwether
did not take well to his kindly offices and
after walking a block, led by the collar,
turned and struck at him. Conners says
this performance was repeated five times
before he knocked the defenseless man
down a couple of times and rendered him
unconscious. He did not specify whether
the beating also was administered in a
plrlt of good-fellowship.
"Why did you not hold his one arm. If
he was striking you?" Judge Hogue asked
the defendant.
To this the erstwhile policeman could
offer no reply. Judge Hogue then admin
istered a fine of $25 and charged Merrl
wether $10 for having been drunk and
disorderly.
It is said in official circles that the
present trouble will result in Officer Con
nors' final dismissal from the depart
ment. HOP EXPORT BUSINESS
DEALERS HAVE MORE ORDERS
THAN THEYCAN FILL.
Portland and Dallas Buyers Again
Operating at Independence.
Why Prices Do Not Advance.
More export orders for hops were on
hand yesterday than for a week past, but
buyers Iid not have much success In fill
ing thorn. A few transactions occurred
at Independence, some 300 bales being
taken there, and light buying was re
jxrted in parts of Marion and Yamhill
Counties. Dealers here estimate that not
over BOO bales changed hands yesterday
in the wnole state, which is quite a fall
ing off in business from the two preced
ing days.
Many of the heaviest growers are hold
ing tightly for 35 cents, and declare that
nothing under that figure can tempt them
to sell. Offers of 30 and 31 cents made In
Eugene and at points this side failed to
bring forth a response. On the other hand
there Is a large number of farmers who
find these prices very attractive, and not
being of a speculative temperament, are
willing to take a good thing when they
see it- Growers who made the mistake
In holding in the past In off years perhaps
cannot bo blamed for not caring to take
the risk, but ne-ertheless It is this liberal
selling that has "been under way for the
past ten days that has kept the market
stationary. Dealers and speculators are
not going to pay 32 cents for hops In one
part of the state when they can get them
for 30 cents in another and philanthropists
who are willing to give the market a
voluntary boost are few and far be
tween in the hop trade. Had growers
stood last and kept out of the market
they could have sent prices up just as
eurely as a. stampede would have lowered
them.
Still, the volume of offerings has been
readily taken and more orders are on
hand for all the hops put up for sale.
This business is almost wholly of an ex
port nature, nearly all the hops bought
in Oregon and Washington this week be
ing on foreign account Trading in the
northern state has kept pace with the
Oregon market. Isaac Pincus & Son
were the heaviest Washington buyers
yesterday, securing 700 bales at current
rates. Herman Klaber & Co. sold sev
eral bales at 27 cents, but they were re
jections and brought all they were worth.
IClaber is a heavy exporter and as he
had accumulated In his late buying a
quantity of hops that were not up to the
export standard, he disposed of them at
what is considered a very good figure
for mediums.
Eastern brewers still keep in the back
ground. Some of them got enough hops
on early contracts to carry them through,
but the majority are waiting, hoping by
their inactivity to break the market. In
the meantime the foreigners are getting
the cream of the crop, and it looks very
much as if the American brewers have
played a losing game. In fact, it is the
opinion of more than one hop man that
the Easterners, before the season Is over,
will have to import American hops from
England at 40 or 50 cents, or perhaps
more.
E. J. Smith, a New Tork dealer, who
has been in this state for the past two
months, left last evening for his home,
going by way of Panama. Mr. Smith sized
up the market properly on his arrival
when he predicted SO-cent prices. He
seys the end is not yet, and that 40 cents
or better will be the ruling figure before
the next crop comes on. He looks for
good prices for two or three years to
come, and says that hops will not be
cheap again until a surplus of at least
100,000 bales has been accumulated.
SALES AT INDEPENDENCE.
Several Growers Are Letting Go, but
Others Hold Strong.
INDEPENDENCE. Or., Oct. 0. (Spe
cial.) E. C. Klrkpatrick, Ralph Williams
and T. A. Biggs, comprising the Dallas
buyers, and H. I. Bents and Mr. Johnson,
representing PhlL Neis, in addition to
local representatives of outside hop firms,
have been in town today and a few more
growers let go their crop, but not all.
The biggest sale was that of R. D. Coop
er, who sold 250 bales to PhiL Nets at
30V4 cents. Klrkpatrick bought 77 bales of
Pierce Biggs at SOU, cents. A sale of 88

SALEM WAREHOUSE FULL.
Activity In the 'Northern Part of
Marlon County.
SALEM. Oct. 20. (Special.) The South
ern Pacific hop warehouse In this city Is
now full and shipments to this place in
transit are being refused. About 4000 bales
are stored here. The hops are being sent
out at the rate of about 300 bales a day
and growers are hauling In more as fast
as there is room.
Few sales of hops grown in this vicinty
have been reported In the last few days,
but there Is some activity In the north
end of the county and a number of sales
are reported from Independence and
Dallas. Prices are 30 to 31 cents, and
nearly all sales are for export.
EUEJraNG BIG PILLS.
South Portland Gulches and Steep
Hills Soon to Be Extinct.
The people of Southern Portland are
rejoicing over the rapid progress of tho
several large fills in that part of the city,
owing to the extensive plant used by the
Pacific Bridge Company and the energy
of George Simons, its manager. Much of
the work is approaching completion and
with the extensive cutting done to fur
nish the earth has greatly changed the
appearance of that part of the city and,
it is said by those Interested, will en
hance the value of property there 30 per
cent. Three electric trains of four dump
cars, each carrying four cubic yards of
earth, have been kept running night and
day and Sundays with double crews of
men. A powerful steam shovel used in
loading them carries a cubic yard at
every scoop.
At Front and Woods streets the fill has
been completed, containing nearly 50,000
cubic yards, and carpenters are placing
the timbers for the plank roadway and
sidewalks which will remain for two or
three years, to give the fill time to become
solid. The fill at First and Woods streets
containing 25,000 yards will, if the weath
er Is at all favorable, be entirely com
pleted within two weeks, and then the
fill at Pennoyer and Corbett streets, 25,000
yards, will bo completed In a hurry. The
track has been laid for the fill of 20,000
yards at Corbett and Woods streets, but
the amount of work done there this Win
ter will be governed by the weather. How
ever. In view of the fact that the big fills
have been completed. It will not matter
If the whole Is delayed till Spring.
Some big cuts have been made in the
Terwilliger tract in connection with this
work, materially changing tho aspect of
that section, and the cutting down of the
hill on the Slavln road, some S00 feet from
the corner of Hamilton avenue and Cor
bett street where tho switch connects
with the main line, has straightened and
shortened the county road, an improve
ment which is greatly appreciated. These
four fills the cuts and two steel bridges
will make Southern Portland hereafter a
part of the city proper.
FUEETER AM) FURS GONE.
Patrons With Sealskin Sacques
Mourn Departure of Mr. Barbeou.
George Barbeou, who conducted a
furrier's establishment on Morrison
street between Tenth and Eleventh
streets, has suddenly disappeared, and
patrons have discovered to their sor
row that before leaving he sbld all the
expensive furs which had been taken to
his establishment for repairs.
The matter first came to the ears of
the police when Mrs. Carr Marshall, of
352 Morrison street, reported that she
had left nt Barbeou's establishment to
be repaired a sealskin sacque valued
at 5300. When she called for the gar
ment Wednesday she found that the
room formerly occupied by Barbeou
was empty, and that no trace could be
found of the man's "whereabouts. She
reported the matter to Chief of Police
Hunt, and Detectives Day and Welner
were assigned to the case.
When the detectives made an investi
gation It developed that Barbeou had
disposed of the furs left with him by
different people, selling them In pawn
shops for small amounts. The sacaue
of Mrs. Marshall was found In one of
the shops and recovered by the detec
tives for its owner. Other complaints
were beginning to come to police head
quarters yesterday evening, and It is
believed that before leaving the city
Barbeou disposed of furs to the value
of several thousand dollars. The man
has been traced Jo -Britijli .Ool&mblsu,

COMES TO LIFE AGAIN
POPULIST STATE CENTRAL COM
MITTEE ISSUES ITS PLATFORM.
Declares Against Gold Standard, and
Invites Voters to Support Its
Presidential Candidates.
Over the transom of room B in the
Cambridge building yesterday floated the
merry hum of voices in various keys.
The names of Parker and Bryan, of
Roosevelt and Cleveland, ripples of free,
silvery melody and the old chorus of 16
to 1 throbbed along the corridors. The
executive committee of tho Populist State
Central Committee was in session and
was chanting tho songs of long ago.
The lone reporter, unsupported, wan
dered within the charm and, like the
ancient mariner drawn by the maelstrom
and the voice of the siren, drifted help
lessly In. The singing stopped.
Dr. J. C. Hill was there, he of Albany
who has dared to arise with the faith of
'S6 and say that the peerless leader, W.
J. Bryan, is out of the straight and nar
row path when he lifts up his voice for
tho cause of Alton B. Parker. W. D.
Hare, of Hillsboro, the old and tried ex
ponent of the party of the rural ele
ments, occupied a seat. Ernest Barton,
Paul Semler, M. G. Aldrlch, of Tremont;
George Ogle, of Molalla; A. P. Nelson,
of Portland, and others who remember
the part' as It used to be had come to
see the dead body arise from the tomb
and step forth to the dismay of the De
mocracy. This sight was vouchsafed to the man
in search of news, and then the gates
closed. It was not to be that any pro
fane eye should see the rites by which
the corpse was brought back to life.
"I hope the gentleman will take no of
fense at the announcement," began Mr.
Ogle soothingly, "but the fact Is, that
this Is an executive session and there
fore should be attended only by the mem
bers of the committee." The reporter
waited for no more pressing invitation
to stay, but fled.
Later the press committee announced
what had been done and gave to the
world the platform upon which the Pop
ulists of Oregon will stand in their ef
fort to recreate the Populist party In the
state.
It was decided In the first place that it
was the duty of all those who remained
true to their honest convictions, held in
the days before the fusion of the .Popu
lists with the Democrats, to show to the
world that their minds were the same
and that their principles had not been
burled with the combination. Conditions
were such that It was necessary for the
Populist party to be brought once more
Into being, In order to meet the treacher
ous change of the Democratic managers
now In control of that party.
The party should not be resurrected for
the campaign or for a short time, but an
effort should be made to bring all of the
old supporters back into the ranks In
a permanent organization which should.
In the future, take Its place In directing
the affairs of the state and the Nation.
It was further decided that the execu
tive committee of the State Central Com
mittee should be empowered to plan for
a series of meetings to be held in dif
ferent parts of the state at which should
be set forth the stand of the party.
These meetings will be arranged for as
soon as possible and announcement of
them will be made. A campaign will be
outlined and followed so far as is possi
ble with the means at command.
The committee framed a platform ex
pressive of its attitude on National ques
tions which is as follows:
"We," tho State Committee of the People's par
ty, assembled la the- City of Portland this 20th
day of October, 1004, set forth the followlne
aa an outline of our principles and platform
First "We indorse the National platform of

Fifth Eight years ago there were but two
National -parties represented In Oregon one In
favor of the gold standard, the other In favor of
blmetallsm. The party favoring blmetallsm
was represented by W. J. Bryan for President
and Thomas E. Watnan for Vice-President. The
People's party has this year nominated Thomas
E. "Watson for President, representing the same
financial principles expressed eight years ago.
There are now two gold-standard nominees
opposing the election of Mr. "Watson, viz.. The
odore Roosevelt and Alton B. Parker.
We know no reason why those who voted
against the gold standard eight years ago
should desert former principles and alliances;
Therefore, believing that those who voted for
Bryan and "Watson before were honest and con
sclentious In so doing, we now most respect
fully invite them to remain steadfast In their
former honest convictions and repeat their
votes for Thomas E. Watson on the 8th of
November, ltXM.

Warm praise for the drydock facilities
of Portland is given by Captain Jensen,
superintendent of Hall Bros.' drydock at
Eagle Harbor, on Puget Sound, and for
12 years dockmaster at Quartermaster
Harbor. Captain Jensen came over yes
terday to visit his old friends here -and
took occasion to run down to St. Johns
and Inspect the Port of Portland dock.
He was shown over the plant by Superin
tendent Mcintosh and he pronounced It
the best sectional floating drydock on the
Pacific Coast.
As it is the only dock In these waters.
Captain Jensen predicted a prosperous
career for it. On the Sound conditions
are not so favorable, as the drydock busi
ness is sadly overdone there. The result
of the keen competition Is a fierce war
between the rival Sound concerns that
has forced docking rates down to 5 cents
ton for all classes of vessels. This.
Captain Jensen says. doe3 not pay for the
labor of operating the docks. Fortunately
for Portland, the Sound docks do not
compete with the docks here, and as the
Portland rates are lower than those In
force at San Francisco, there Is no reason
to believe the Port of Portland dock will
not get Its share of the business.
ITS BUSINESS GROWING.
Annual Report of the Pacific Coast
Company.
NEW TORK, Oct. 20. The annual re
port of the Pacific Coast Company for the
year ended June 30. issued today, shows
total earnings of $5,902,792, an Increase
of $296,218; total expenses, $4,717,943, an

the year, after paying dividends and other
charges, is $l,71i.2Gi, an increase of $266,-
26. The increase In operating expenses
Is accounted for In the annual report by
repairs and renewals, formerly charged
to operating expenses. There was ex
pended and charged to operating expenses
for repairs and renewals to engines, boil
ers and equipment, $403,929, an Increase
of $199,771.
Additional steamships could be oper
ated to advantage in view of the con
tinuous Increase of business and popula
tion of the Pacific Coast, it may be wise

NEW TORK. Oct. 20. The local agents
of the Spanish Royal Mall steamer
Buenos Ayres, which has been reported
more than three days overdue at Havana.

extremely severe weather which has pre
vailed for several days along the South
ern coast. When the Buenos Ayres sailed
from this port. October 13, she had on

reputation, judging from a discussion
among half a dozen men at breakfast
yesterday morning. Each had a different
dish and each had an Oregonian In front
of him, and all were trying to eat and
read at the same time. One read a para
graph about a sick man who was regain
ing health and Increasing his weight on
a diet of roast corn gnawed from the cobs.
This started a discussion on diet and
stomach troubles. Each favored some par
ticular breakfast dish, and each knew
several persons afflicted with stomach
troubles and each gave an account of the
diet resorted to "by one or more of the
afflicted and the results. One man lived
on tea and toast and eggs, another ate
nothing but rye mush, a third ate only
Graham crackers and baked apples three
times a day. A traveling man who had
traveled a long distance with Harry Car
son Clarke, the actor, said he lived on
boiled milk and molasses taffy just
lived on them alone. His servant carried
a cooking apparatus and supplied this diet
fresh' and hot three times a day. It
was fed to him with a spoon and had
proved very beneficial. One of the party,
who was eating codfish and potatoes, said
they had formed his regular diet for
three years by the doctor's advice, morn'
lng, night and noon, with "pankln" for a
variety, eaten with a spoon. The last
said he used to be very corpulent and
had no end of trouble with his stomach
but was finally persuaded that he had
appendicitis and concluded to have his
vermiform appendix removed. It was
found that thek appendix was big as a
Scotch haggis, while his stomach had
shrunk to the size of his fist, so he had
the stomach removed and the appendix
had been performing its duties success
fully for six years.
To regulate the stomach, liver and bow
els and promote digestion, take one of
Carter's Little Liver Pills, every night.
Try them.
AS TO COLDS
Feed a cold yes, but
feed it with Scott's Emul
sion. Feeding a cold in this
way kills it. You cannot
afford to have a cough or
cold at this season or any
other. Scott's Emulsion
will drive it out quickly
and keep it out. Weak
lungs are strengthened
and all wasting diseases
are checked by Scott's
Emulsion. It's a great
flesh producer.
Well send you a sample free.
