Chips and Cards Are Collected as EvN dence to Be Used Against Pris oners in the Municipal Court Today. A raid was made on a "big mitt" Karae in the Winchester Annex hist night and a sackful of poker chips and se'en prisonera were seized .by Detec tives Kerrigan and Snow and Sergeant ef Peliee llogeboom. Charges ef gam bling were placed against the men and the evidence is held against them. All spent the night in the City Jail, by or der ef Captain Moore. The raid was a succexs. It was planned early yesterday morning, when Detectives Kerrigan and Snow went to Chief of Police Hunt and told him of the presence of the "big mitt" outfit. He ordered the arrest of every person found in the room and the seizure of the gambling evidence, should it be found In the place. At 10 o'clock Detectives Kerrigan and Snow went to the Winchester An nex. Burnslde between Third and Fourth streets, and watted until they were certain there were a number of men in the room, which was located at the top of the stairs. They then called up Police Headquarters for a patrol waaren. When it arrived they wore in possesion of the room and were hold ing the seven men prluoners. Acting Sergeant Hogeboom, by prearrange ment. hurried to the place and assisted in etcerting the prisoners to the wagon and in taking the pokor chips. Se carefully bad the raid been planned, and so cautiously was it exe cuted, that not one of the men In the room got away, neither did they have any opportunity to hide the evidence ef their guilt. All went willingly, as they saw there was no way of escape. Men giving the names of Ed Will iams. John Wesley and Percy Bell are said by the officers to have been the propnetors of the "big mitt" game. There Is a fourth man Interested in it. but he was not present when the raid occurred He will probably be arrested later. The names of the foir visitors to the place were given as Charles Hoffman. F. B. Camnjtell. Charles Wag ner and W. H. Gregory, This Is the first "b!g mitt" game to be raided and the proprietors arrested for a long time. Such places have been kept out. but the police expect much trouble from them in future. owing to the many who are coming here in anticipation of reaping rich rewards. Chief Hunt saya he is deter mined to crush all such, and will not tolerate any kind of bunko games to run at ail. The detectives believe that the two men who robbed a stranger of $35 by means or an antiquated look triok Sat urday operated from the room in which the raid was made last night.

I Flnlcy. proved beyond doubt she was struck by the steps of a pasecnger train. TO TAKE THE TRIP "Nachur-ManNow in Tahiti E. W. Darling In "Welcomed by the Natives, and Taken Up Abode In a "Kokanut" Grove. ERNEST W. DARLING, formerly of Portland, who calls himself the "Nachur-man" andbJIeves In a kind of life not combative with the European form of civilization, has gone to the land where clothes when worn arc looked upon as ornaments merely and arc generally not worn at all. which is Just what ap peals to Professor Darling. He lias sent a "P. O. Kard" to The Orcgonlan from Papeete. Tahiti, which Is somewhere In that large and scattered localltj- known as the South 'Seat Islands, and addresses It to the residents of the native state. The postal card bears evidence that Pro fessor Darling has gone to a place where he will at least seem a brother to his fel-Iow-mcn, though his "10 commandments ov natur" will hardly entitle him to tho role of prophet which he essayed in this country. Following is his postal card: "PAPEETE. Tahiti, Jan. 13. 1905. To My Deer Oregonianz: Intent on establishing a Nature Sanitarium In the best lokality in the world. I left S. F. 2 wks ago for Tahiti.

Gleason, the clever short stop, who has been doing good work on the baseball team of Columbia University of Portland, has been chosen by Manager McCreedie. of the Portland baseball team, as a utility man. The boy Is a fast ball player and one of the best infieldcrs that the amateur game has produced In Port land for a long time. He was one of the strongest men on the Columbia nine ror several years and last Summer at Chau tauqua did splendid work. Judge Mc Creedie. president of the Portland base ball club, knows the boy personally and has been very much pleased with his game. In taking him Into the profession al ranks, he believes he Is going to de velop a star. The Catholic colleges all over the United States regularly, furnish material of -the highest class for professional bail, but this is the first man to go from Columbia. Tacema Land .Company. Wins.

Councilmen Vote in Favor of California J.ourney. SPECIAL MEETING IS HELD Seven Members of the Council Discus-: the Subject and End by Adopting Resolution to Vote Appropriation of $1500. Seven Councilmen yesterday In a spe cial meeting agreed to pass a resolution at the Council meeting next Wednesday appropriating $1500 to pay for a trip to Los Angeles for the purpose of investi gating the Empire Electric Company's telephone instruments, any amount not used to be returned to the fund. The Councilmen will leave Portland Monday night. February 13, and return February 23. City Auditor Devlin and City At torney McNary will accompany the party. Councilmen Zimmerman, Sharkey, Sherrett, Albee. Flcgel, Bentley and Whiting were present in the City Hall attending various committee meetings and Insofar as there has been much con jecture as to whether or not the trip would be made It was decided to take the matter under consideration at once. Some were In favor of paying their own expenses, feeling Jhat as a great deal of adverse criticism has resulted from the proposed trip, any attempt to carry It out would be the occasion for a public upheaval. This, however, was bitterly opposed by the majority, who averred that the trip was not a "junket," as some were wont to term It. but purely a business trip. The Councilmen, they argued, would not only see the virtues of the automatic telephones demon strated, but they would also leasn some thing of methods adopted in other cities for the regulation of street Improvements and car systems. The trip Is to be such as officials of other large cities make, the Journey of a body of Salt Lake officers being cited. As a matter of fact. It was asserted, that the money In question which will be used to pay for the trip has been laid aside for that express purpose. According to some of the Councilmen. public opinion is heartily In favor of the journey. "I have heard on every side." said Resolution Adopted. Councilman Albee. " 'If you are going to give us a better telephone service, go.' " This expressed the remarks of other Councilmen. There was some doubt as to the attitudes of Councilmen Focllcr and Merrill. Mr. Sharkey stated that he was sure Mr. Merrill was In favor of the trip and would join the others. Mr. Foellcr stated to a reporter that he was going to Los Angeles If he paid his own way. The motion to adopt the resolution "ras made by Councilman Bentley and sec onded by Mr. Sharkey. It was carried without a dissenting voice. -Now." said Mr. Bentley. "we win have to make some provision for the ad journment of the Council while we are away." "Oh. Rnmelln can meet and adjourn," said Mr. Flcgel. The Itinerary, although not as yet de cided upon, will include San Francisco. San Jose. Los Angeles ainp Sacramento with a day's stop in each city. 70 years. Mr. Patrick raised the first Nebraska regiment at the outbreak of the Civil War. through which he served, attaining the rank of Colonel. Later he distinguished himself in battles with the Indians on the frontier, and was for sev eral years a Government director of the Union Pacific. He had amassed consid erable wealth. BUNNDHx THE LAST LAP. Work of Present Federal Grand Jury Is About to Come to an End. The federal grand Jury has entered Into the last lap of its long race, and another week will see the work practically done and the members of the body scattered to their respective homes. W. M. Piper, of Fossil, was one of the witnesses of yesterday, having been called to tell what he knew of the doings of the Butte Creek Land and Livestock Com pany. He was followed by J. W. New kirk, cashier of the First National Bank of Portland, and one of the witnesses In the Puter-Watson trial of November last. To judge from the witnesses who are being called before the jury, the Govern ment Is now tying up the little ends of the cases which have been and are now being considered. It Is stated that the session will last for the rest of the pres ent week, and perhaps until the middle of the week to come. Since the return of the Sorenson indictment for perjury the Jury has worked silently and persistently. and yet nothing has apparently come of Its labors. No intimation of what has been accomplished has drifted from the juryroom, but it Is the firm conviction that many things have been taking place behind the shelter of the partition that will make sensational news when they are announced in court. Indictments against leading men of the state have" been long pending In the com mon mind, and it Is thoroughly believed that these are now on the eve of being returned. Witnesses have been called be fore the jury who have had obvious con nection with those high in power In times which have faed- What their testlmony has been Is not known, but It is believed that It has pointed to those not yet dragged Into the net. or If they have been mentioned, that other charges arc pend ing and are now ready of announcement. It Is whispered that another day may bring developments which have not been dreamed of up to this time, and an air1 of expectation is hanging over the -Sfed eral Building as the days of the jury are drawing to a colse. Before the end of the week something will happen,, and the long work of the jurors will have been ac complished for this present term at least. When the jury is adjourned it will not be called again until March for the regular session. Mr. Heney is becoming anxious to go to San Francisco to attend to private business waiting for him there, and will hurry the remainder of the investigations through with all possible haste. One rea son. It is alleged, that has prolonged the work of the jury Is that a great deal of documentary evidence has been considr ered of late by the Jury which has made the work slow and tedious.
