THE MOBNDiG OBEGONIAN," SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 1905. HE IS DEFIANT Manning Replies to Municipal League. SAYS HE FEARS NO WAR Dares the League to Publish Any Letters. MEETING TO BE HELD TUESDAY Alleged Promise of District Attorney Does Not Result in Police Raids, and League Is Gathering its Munitions of War. The Municipal League Is gathering mu nition oi war for its campaign against District-Attorney Manning. Tuesday evening a secret meeting will be held and final -plans laid for the public attack upon the -county official. Thursday the Munici pal League gave John Manning an ulti matum. He was to have ordered the Chief of Police Thursday night to raid certain places where gambling was said to be going on. If the Chief of Police did not raid these places. District Attorney Manning was to have filed Information against that official bjr noon yesterday. The league was to declare war on the District Attorney If these projects were not carried out. The Chief of Police raided no gambling .houses, no indictment was filed against him yesterday by District Attorney Man ning, and, therefore, war between Mr. Manning and the Municipal League is on. May Have Changed His Mind. Thursday afternoon 'the Chief of Police was visited by an Oregonlan reporter, who asked the official if any raids were contemplated for that night. At first the Chief of Police denied knowledge of any, but later he made a statement. "The police Is going to gather some evi dence," he said, "as Is the duty of the police to do. I am always willing to aid in enforcing the law." "Are any arrests contemplated?" was asked. "Jf we find money on the tables." re plied Chief Hunt, "the officers will, no doubt, make arrests." The Chief then stated that there would be "something doing" at S o'clock at night. He detailed two sergeants. Hoge boom and Slover, and Policemen Roberts. Ooltz, Burke. Baty and Endlcott to aid the sergeants in the work. Every indi cation pointed toward a gambling house raid and the carrying out of the plan of the District Attorney whereby he was to save himself from the Municipal League, and Chief Hunt was, in turn, to save hlm elf from the District Attorney. At S:15 o'clock everything was In readi ness for the raid, the large number of officers reserved giving the Indication that tit raid was to be one of proportions. jHve minute before S o'clock, just as Chief hunt called Sergeants Slover and rHogeboom into bis office to glvo them -their orders, Dlitrlct Attorney Manning nastily entered Police Headquarters- and stepped into -the Chiefs private office. Ten minutes later Chief Hunt and At torney Manning emerged, and the Chief instructed his men to raid the Green Front saloon and the vaudeville house connected therewith and bring to tho Cen tral Station all women found there. This was Immediately done, after which the Chief of Police said the night's raid was completed. What the Municipal League is guessing in: Did Attorney Manning, at the last moment, decide it would be better to fight the league than to antagonize the gambling clement, and did he order tho Chief of Police to call the raid off? The preparations for the raid and tho Chief's statement that arrests would be made If money was found on the tables, together with the fact that so many officers were retained for the work, indicate that a gambling-house raid was contemplated and something caused the Chief to change his mind. Had the contemplated raid been on the Green Front saloon, two officers would have done the work, which con sisted of nothing more than walking In the saloon and ordering the women to put on their wraps and go to the station, which they did, as usual, without resist ance. War Is Now On. "When the members of the Municipal League discovered this morning that no raid on gambling-houses had been made, they began to wonder whether Chief Hunt had refused to act and if Attorney Man ning would file Information against him. "When it was ascertained at noon that no In formation had been filed and that there were ho Indications of any being filed, the leaguers Immediately sprang to the con clusion that the District Attorney had again broken his promise, and war was declared In the fullest sense of the term. While It was contemplated that the cam paign would begin at once, the leaguers changed their minds and have agreed to prepare further evidence and gather all their strength for the battle. With this end in view a special and secret meeting of all members of the Municipal League has been called for next Tuesday eve ning, at which time a method of proced ure will be mapped out. The league de clares It Is not at all pleased with Mr. Manning's conduct of the District Attor ney's office: that the promises he made before election have been broken and that nothing but war will wash out the stain the leaguers Incurred by inducing Re publicans to vote for Manning at the time he was elected. O. P. M. Jamison, president of tho league, said yesterday that Mr. Manning had done some commendable things since entering the District Attorney's office, but that there were other things he should do that he does not. Mr. Jamison also stated that the league had the latter mentioned in The Oregonlan of yesterday and that unless Mr. Manning changed his policy the letter would show up. What Attorney Manning Says. Discussing the war that has been de clared upon him. District Attorney Man ning replies as follows: "As far as their publishing any state ment they have against me In writing, they are perfectly at liberty to do so. If the members of the Municipal League have any complaints to fllo against gam blers, my office is open to them. If they have evidence upon which a conviction can be had. I will give them, under those circumstances, all the complaints they want, or any one else, as I have done ever since I have been District Attor ney. I am not an arresting officer, and I do not regard it a part of my duty to go out of my office looking for evidence. My duty, as I understand It. Is to prose cute cases called to my attention by com plaints filed In the District Attorney's office. "Tho trouble Is not so much that the Municipal League wants me to enforce the law as that it wants me to enforce it according to Its own ideas, instead of the way In which 1 view It. and la this I prefer to abide by my own Interpreta tion of the law. "I want to say further in this connec tion, and I want it understood, that X intend to run the office of the District Attorney in this county according to the dictates of my best Judgment, the puerile earplugs of the Municipal League or any other factional organization to the con trary notwithstanding." There Was Time Limit. Contrary to published reports yesterday afternoon, there was an agreement, ac cording to Miller Murdoch, of the Munici pal League, between the league committee add Mr. Manning that the District Attor ney should do the things designated by a certain time yesterday. Mr. Murdoch does not deny that he carried on a conversa tion with Mr. Manning In which the Dis trict Attorney agreed to govern himself by this time limit. Mr. Murdoch declined to talk further of the matter yesterday than saying that everything depended on the meeting next Tuesday night. It was understood that there was a slight mis understanding among the leaguers yes terday afternoon regarding the policy of allowing the matter to become public be fore definite plans had been arranged, but the misunderstanding passed away with the setting of the sun, and all are now agreed that since the matter has be come public the war must be pushed, as the league can ill-afford to rest on Its arms with the eyes of the public upon it. Sheriff Word yesterday denied that he was offered a bribe of $10,000 to agree to serve only such papers as were placed in his bands by the District Attorney, but leaguers declare the bribe was implied, if not actually Offered, and say they can give names. It Is known also that Sheriff Word bas made other statements to the effect that he had been offered bribes to allow open gambling. On the other hand. Mr. Manning makes a fair statement and states that he Is not afraid of anything the league can publish regarding him. He declares that he Is running his office in a proper manner; that he will not be dictated to by any organization; that he Interprets the law as a lawyer and not as the league would have It Interpreted, and that when war begins he will be at the head of his troops ready to give battle. KEWB0A1D HOLDS MEETING. Chamber of Commerce Tiustees Plan Work for Year. A special meeting of the newly elect ed board of trustees of the Portland Chamber of Commerce was held yes terday morning at II o'clock pursuant to the call of President "Wheelwright. Besides the president there were in at tendance Vice-President R. R. Hoge, Secretary Samuel Connell, Julius L. Meier. Hugh McGuIre, Paul "Wesslnger, J. Ernest Laidlaw and Jay Smith. The policy of the board and the plan of work for the Chamber during 1905 was discussed at length by the mem bers of the board and a course of work was partially outlined. It was decided that hereafter the meetings shall be held at 11 o'clock. The regular meeting Is to be on the second Tuesday of each month, but the board will meet at any time on the call of the president. The letter from the Honolulu Board of Trade, asking for the co-operation of the Chamber in securing an appro priation from Congress for an im provement to the Honolulu harbor was referred to a special committee for In vestigation. Letters were read from Major W. C. Langfitt and J. Couch Flanders regard ing the request of the wharf-owners to build their wharves out further to wards the middle of the river that they might be able to reach the deeper water. It was the opinion of the two gentlemen iliat the harbor was now narrow enough, and it would not be wise to build nearer the channel than at present. The letters were referred to the navigation committee for con sideration and recommendation. The Publishers' Protective Associa tion, recently organized, asked to get into the running with a chance to as sist the Chamber of Commerce in pass ing on the merits of any advertising scheme which might come before the committee for consideration. The proposition was accepted, and now the public will be doubly guarded from the schemes of the wily advertiser. After electing the Oregon Plating Company to membership, the meeting was adjourned to meet on Tuesday next at 11 o'clock. SALE OPENS THIS M0BNING. Gadski Recital Seats on Sale at EHers piano House at 10 Today. No singer in recent years, excepting Schumann-Hclnk. has attracted such at tention as has Mme. Gadski, who will give a return recital at The First Bap tist Church on "Wednesday evening, Jan uary 18. The enthusiasm she has aroused and the attention she has been paid In Cali fornia are little snort of marvelous. The papers are full of her triumphs, and the following notice will show how the pub lic there regards her. This Is from the Chronicle: Of the Schumann songs the "Xussbium" and "Widmune" were the most charming, the appealing sentiment of the latter espe cially seeming to come from great depths of heart. Jeneen'a "Murmeludes Luftchen." "Aus Melnen Grosuen Schmersen." by Franz, were attractive In different ways, the first tippling and gay, the second very sympathetic. Of the Schubert songs, 'Greichen am Splnn rad" and "Haldenroaleln" called forth variety of feeling and a daintily etched expression. For a. soprano. Madame Gadski' low notes, or rather those la the middle register, are par ticularly clear and well -taken. Madame Francesco has hardly any good notes below those in the soprano register, and even as great an artist as Sembrlch fails to bring out thoee strong, full chest ones considered tho exclusive property of tho great contralto. But GaAskl. with a high enough vote to sing the great, soprano roles in Wagnerian opera, also has full tones for every note within her corapatfi. This technical gift, in addition to the soul and compass cf the artist, given her the Quality of sympathy that is so often lack ing In the very high soprano. BETTER HEE PROTECTION. Sellwood Is to Have Two Separate Volunteer Companies. Foreman J. E. Rinkic. of the Sell wood Volunteer Fire Company, an nounces that two fire companies will be organized out of the present one. With this end in view the membership of the company has been increased to 35. Out of these a hose and truck: com pany will be organized with separate officers, but with headquarters in the Firemen's Hall. At the hall arc hose reel and truck for the two companies. By this arrangement it is thought that better protection can be afforded Sell wood property, which is no longer a small suburb, but Is rapidly growing nnd extending to Mldwayl It is expect ed that a paid hose company will be Installed In Brooklyn ort Powell and llllwaukle streets, probably during the year, which can co-operate wltn the two Sellwood volunteer companies in case there should be a large fire. The Sellwood Volunteer Fire Company Is so connected with the growth of that suburb that the people are not at all anxious for a paid company that would cause Its retirement from actlre du ties. The hose cart and truck will be used for the present, but the firemen hope that the city will see Its way clear to give them a chemical appar atus during the year.
