THE MORNING OEEGONIAN, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1905. FIND POKER GAMES Sheriffs Force LocateSecreted Playing, CLOSE DOWN CONCERT HALL Underground Game Located in the "Harmon's Place" and Others Found in Cigar and Grocery Stores-Captives Get Bail. "Harmon's Place," a concert hall, billiard-room, and saloon, was closed by Sheriff "Word yesterday afternoon because, as an additional attraction for the pat rons, a "stud" poker game was installed. The gambling department was located In an underground floor, and was thought to be Impregnable, but the Sheriff won an easy victory. He did not storm the prem ises, but, after ascertaining beyond any question that the law was being violated, walked in quietly, accompanied by Dep uty Sheriff Grussi, and placed the propri etor, W. "W. Harmon, under arrest. The next move was to march the employes and patrons out, lock the door and put a Dep uty in charge as custodian. Harmon was escorted to the Courthouse and was released on $250 ball. Within an hour after the raid was made District Attorney Manning filed an Information against Harmon charging him with con ducting a gambling-house: "I will keep his place closed," said Sheriff Word, "unless he gives me a writ ton agreement that no gambling will be carried on in future. He said he would do so today. When I get the agreement I will turn his place back to him, not be fore." Poker in Cigar Store. Sheriff Word took a walk and happened into the cigar store of Al Harris, at 273 Washington street. He arrested Harris tor conducting a poker game, and. next proceeded to the store of J&ichardson Bros, and arrested them on the same charge. , "I didn't find them playing in either place," said the Sheriff to a reporter, "but I have heard so much I considered that it was my duty to act." Harris, together with A. B. Richardson and T. D. Richardson, were released on (100 ball each. District Attorney Manning Immediately filed an Information In the State Circuit Court against the three men, charging them with running draw poker games. Sheriff Word was the complain ant in each case. Yesterday morning, before Judge George, Al Harris pleaded guilty to an in dictment returned by the last grand jury charging him with running a nlckel-In-Ihe-slot machine, and was fined $200, which he paid. REMONSTRATE AT ASSESSMENT Alblna-Avenue Property-Holders Ask Review of Council's Action. A petition to review the action of the Common Council in the matter of a re assessment amounting to $11,000 for the improvement of Albina avenue, from Page street to River street, was filed in the State Circuit Court yesterday by Ralph Duniway, attorney. The improvement was made a year ago and consisted of wood blocks, which took the place of a macadam pavement. The remonstrants are: James W. Applegate. Mary Evans, W. H. Foster, C. H. Jackson. The Alliance Trust Co., Mary Phelps Montgomery. "VV. H. H. Morgan, Paul Wesslnger and Henry Wagner, executors of the estate of Henry Weinhard. deceased; David Brown, Anna Brown, Dirk Van Rassum, John Michell, Irene A. McKenny, William H. Wlgers, W. D. Walsh. They allege that the old pavement was much better than the new and was so firm that it could not even be plowed up, and had to be removed with dynamite. The new pavement, the remonstrants assert, has not a concrete bed. only a gravel foundation. The cost objected to is "$400 to $500 per lot. which Is. in some certain cases, more than the lots are worth. HAS NO RIGHT TO PAINT. Suit Brought Against Painter to En join Him From Operating. Suit against John T. Stoneroad to en join him from following the painting bus iness was filed yesterday in the State Cir cuit Court by E. H. Moorehouse. The complaint recites that Stoneroad owned stock in the E. H. Moorehouse Company, which Moorehouse purchased from him in June, 1902, with the understanding that he, Stoneroad. would not engage in the same line of business for 10 years. The company is engaged in the business of selling art materials, decorating, wall papering, etc Moorehouse alleges that a large part of the business of the com pany was painting, and that Stoneroad has gone into the painting business- and is interfering with the patronage of E. H. Moorehouse Company because he Is ac quainted with its customers. Under his agreement It is charged that Stoneroad must not engage in this line of trade in Portland until 1912. TIRED AFTER THIRTY YEARS Mother of Ten Children Gets Divorce on Grounds of Cruelty. The domestic infelicities which have for a long time existed between Augusta B. Leader and Joseph H. Leader were set tled yesterday, by Judge Frazer, who granted Mrs. Leader a divorce on the grounds of cruel treatment. The parties have divided their property. The Issue of the marriage has been ten children. The three children who are still minors remain in the custody of their mother. The litigants were married in 1874 In Wis consin. Mrs. Leader testified that her husband cursed her and abused her. She told of occasions when he struck her with his clenched fist, knocking her down. These occurrences were frequent. Once he struck her with a waterbucket, and cursed her in the presence of their chil dren. v ASKS SALVE FOR HONOR. Edward Bradbury Asks Damages for Merchant's Abuse. "Pay me $1 or take off those shoes. I will call an officer and have you arrested. Those are my shoes you have on your feet They were taken from my store. You are a thief. You shall not leave this store until you have taken those shoes off." These words Edward Bradbury alleges were spoken to him by Samuel Mazurov sky, a merchant at 8 North Third street, on January 25, 1905, in the hearing of Jacob Smith and others. Bradbury avers that the charges made by Mazurovsky were false and scandalous and Injured his good name and reputation. He seeks a salve for his wounded honor, and yester day filed suit in the State District Court against Mazurovsky for $2500 damages. Legal Jottings. G. M. Haugh testified that her husband, John Haugh, deserted Tier two years ago. They were married at Oregon City, May A, 190L Judge Frazer granted the plain tiff a divorce. Warrants for the payment of salaries of county officials were drawn by County Clark Fields yesterday, and hereafter will be drawn on the first day of each month. Ashley & Rumeiln, brokers, have been cashing the warrants at par on tho first day of the month, and have waited until the 12th or 15th before receiving repay ment. The warrants draw interest at 6 per cent, but at present do not run more than two or three months, because the county is fast getting out of debt. The brokers fjgured that It was not profitable to advance money for 12 or 15 days on warrants, and pay Interest on the money without receiving any return. True they would receive whatever Interest the coun ty paid on the warrants while they were outstanding from one to two or three months, but the brokers thought this in sufficient, especially as they pay an em ploye a monthly salary to stand around the building and purchase warrants. The banks offered to take the warrants at par, and County Clerk Fields decided to issue them in future on the first day of the month. Because of desertion Hugh C. Frlsbie was divorced from Matilda M. Frlsbie by Judge Frazer and was granted the cus tody of a minor child, a girl 10 years old. The litigants were married at Vancouver In October, 1892. Decisions Today.

J., Feb. 2.-George Williams, a young grocer in the village of Watchung, was found shot dead In his sleigh onthe road yesterday. Williams had started out to drive a well-dressed stranger to Warrenville. and that was the last seen of him until he was found dead. The stranger has disappeared and no motive for the crime can be learned. Footprints In the snow, apparently made by a man walking backwards, led from the sleigh to the house of a French man named Pollock, whom the stranger said he wished to visit. The house was apparently deserted and Pollock cannot be found. The footprints were followed to the railroad station, where the stran ger boarded a train for New York. George H. Wood, an ironworker, sur rendered to tho police at New York City tonight. He was held on suspicion that he knew something about the killing of Williams. Wood is Mrs. Pollock's grand son. An autopsy showed that Williams had been shot from behind through the heart. A bullet extracted from the body proved to be of the same calibre as some found In Wood's room in a hotel. Wood said his memory was partly a blank regarding what happened to him or where he had been for nearly a week. He told the police he left New York City last Monday with a Mr. Mack, for whom he had worked in the iron business. He said their destination was to be Scars dale, Pa., where Mack was to start him in business, having given him $1000 for that purpose. Wood says he remembers scarcely anything more. Whether they were in Scarsdale he says he does not know; neither does he remember what became of the $1000 or Mack. He says he has an Impression he was In Trenton, but was positive he was not in Plainfleld. BOASTS OF BAD DEEDS. Man Who Says He Is Pal of Carbarn Bandits Is Captured. ST. LOUIS, Feb. 3.
