At midnight last night three special trains, carrying delegates and their friends, arrived from Missouri River points. They came over the Oregon Short Line, the Northern Paclric and the Great Northern. Fully 1300 persons were car ried on the three trains, which were met by committees from Hood Division. The arrivals remained In the fleepers until this morning. Another special, from the Southern States, Is expected to arrive this morning. Those of the order who reached the city earlier are enthusiastic In their praise of Oregon and Portland, and feel kindly toward the people here for their generous welcome. "When the new ar rivals go into the heart of the city this morning they will see almost every mer cantile establishment flying their colors, and red, white and green lanterns will be observed in many windows. Grand Chief Conductor E. E. Clark arrived yes terday morning and took up quarters at the Hotel Portland. Ho Is not a stranger in Portland, as he once ran trains on this coast. He was a conductor of the Northern Pacific for several years, run ning between Helena and Billings, Mont., and he was also oh the Rio Grande route for several years. "Portland Is a great city." sajd Mr. Clark yesterday. "It Is a good' city p come to at any time, and though It is a great distance from the headquarters of most of our members, we selected it two years ago at Pittsburg as our meeting place this year. We do not regret the selection." One of the principal subjects for legis lation at the convention this year wilf be that of changing the meeting time to once in every three or four years instead of every two years, as at the present time. The election of officers will also take place, and the place of the next convention selected. Official programmes have been Issued, giving interesting statistics concerning Oregon and Portland and telling of en joyable side trips that may be made dur ing the visitors' stay in the city. They state that a reception to the order will be given by the Ladles' Auxiliary at 2 o'clock this afternoon at Elks' Hall. Mar quam building. AH conductors and their wives "will be entertained. Grand Pres ident Mrs. J. H. Moore reached Portland last night from Toledo, O., and will open headquarters at the Hotel Portland.

During their .slay In the city the delegates and their friends will be entertained almost every evening, the LewJs and Clark Ex position will be visited and a trip will be made to the seaside. May Extend Line to Inside Inn. The Portland Consolidated Street Rail way will In all probability extend its Thurman-strcct line along the west or southwest side of the Exposition grounds to the entrance of the American Inn In order to afford the patrons of that place the advantages of quick transportation to and from the city. It is understood that the management of the Inn has entered Into negotiations with the street-car people with the end of construction In view and that tacit arrangements have been made by which the half-mile of track between the Thur-man-strcet line and the entrance to the Inn -will be laid: If the final agreements are entered inta between the two parties, construction will be commenced at once and the line will be ready for operation by the opening day of the Exposition. Policeman at City .Hall. A policeman has been detailed by Chief Hunt to remain on duty at the city hall during all hours of the day while the building is open for public business. It is believed the influx of suspicious-looking strangers, incident to the near ap proach of the Fair, has had something to do with this extra precaution. The treasurer's office will be especially-well-guarded by the patrolman. The appoint ment, of the officer has been made pas sible by the recent increase In the force. Lady Curzon's Token of Gratitude. CALCUTTA, May S. Lady Curzon, wife of the Viceroy, intends to present a hand some fountain to the City of Calcutta as a mark of her gratitude for the notable welcome accorded her on returning to In dia "after her long illness In England.

NEW MEMBERS ASSERTIVE Old Ones Declare That the Xcwly Elected Cannot Serve, and the Courts May Have to Decide Which Is Iii-ht. Trouble seems brewing in the Repub lican County and City Central Committee, from the election last Saturday of 53 new members. The old. mombers. or most of them, think the new gentleman are "but ting in" and have no lawful place on the comnTittee. The dispute may go to the courts. Whitney L. Boise, chairman of the old committee, says plainly that the newly elected men cannot oust those now In the seats. But the patriots who have Just come Into glory 'have an opin ion of their own; which doesn't match Mr. Boise's, for they are of the opinion that the old members should get off the political earth. And to show- that they mean business the new committeemen will meet next Thursday evening; whore has not been determined, though the New Deal head quarters, -at 109 Second street, may be the place. The direct primary law ordains that the "Central Committee must meet and organize within five days after the primaries at which It was elected. The last day of grace will be next Thursday. How It Is Made Up. The Central Committee is made up of one member from each of the 5S city precincts and from each of the 25 coun try precincts In the county. The entire body, as chosen by the last county con vention in March. 1904. was called the County and City Central Committee and pains were taken at that time to include the city end of the title. But now an effort is being made to drop the city end and to call the old committee simply the County Central Committee. By main taining this ground, leaders of the old Republican organization believe that they can keep off the new members of the committee and retain the County Com mittee for the next county election, when they hope that it will be able to wield considerable influence in nominations. The law Is extremely ambiguous in de fining the make-up of the City and Coun ty Central Committee. According to some authorities, no new members can be elected nntil next year in the county pri maries, and the men elected last Satur day can have no place on the County Committee. This is the opinion of Mr. Boise. But according to the other author ities, Mr. Boise is wrong. The dispute may grow into a tangle for the courts to unravel. The question is of interest to the 23 newly-elected committeemen and to others who desire to see control of the party change from the Mitchell element. Duty of Committee. The duty of the committee is to manage the campaign. Inasmuch as nominating conventions are abolished and central committees no longer - select delegates thereof, the committee is stripped of the function most important heretofore. The squabble will probably be confined to the Republican brethren, for on the Democratic side is a willingness to let the new committeemen take the seats of the old. Democrats also elected new com mlteemen at Saturday's primaries. John Van Zante. chairman of the old Demo cratic committee, is of the opinion that the old committee is functus officio, inas much as the law under which It was cre ated and under which it worked Is en tirely repealed by the direct-primary law. An attempt will be made perhaps to slide the new committee off on the City Central Committee which was appointed by the city convention of "3902. That com mittee, though apparently functus officio, never was officially disbanded. Its chair man was C. H: Carey. But whatever the outcome of the pres ent dispute, Mr. Bolso said yesterday that the organization of which he is head will support the nominees , of last Saturdays primaries and do ail' It can' for their elec tion.

Hyland was nominated at last Saturday's Republican primaries appeared evident from corrected figures in the City Audi tor's office, thus bearing out The Ore gonlan's election returns. An error was found yesterday in the footings made Sat urday night in the Auditor's office, where by Gray was credifed with 102 votes less than he should have received. Besides, Gray wasxcredlted with only IS votes In Precinct 49, in Alblna, whereas his vote was really 5S. These errors made a dif ference of 110 votes. Gray now seems to be 100 votes ahead of Hyland. ' The exact figures will be known today, when the Auditor shall have finished his official canvass of the vote. The vote for the several candidates ac cording to unofficial returns was as fol lows: Sharkey,v 4097; Kellaher. 273; Wills, 2497; Annand, 2421; Gray. 2401; Hyland, 2303; Clemens, 2277; Qulmby, 2233; Barry, 2191; Manley. 2109: Townsend, 1656; Hepp ner, 1649; Lent, 1570; Groce, 1552; Davis, 1212; Ryan. 11S2.

MAY BOLTTICKET Municipal Association May Run an Independent. NO DECISION MADE YET Executive Committee Will Meet To day and Determine Whether to 1'Incc a Tomlnce Against Williams In the Field. Officers of the Municipal Association were reticent yesterday as to their in tentions and said that they did not know what today's meeting wrould bring forth. There Is no gainsaying, however, that they feel much diiwom'fitcd and that in fluential one? are prone to bolt. Before the primaries they declared unreservedly that should Williams win they would come forth with an Independent. The as sociation was urged to stay out of the primaries, but it decided that failure to win In the nominating contest would not necessarily keep them out of the election. They believed that there was a chance of beating Williams In the primaries; hence they did not wish to put off until June 5 the fate ot an ispac which they thought they had a fair chance of deciding on May C. With thip end in view, the association brought out Albee and indorsed him. After Albce made known his candidacy he hesitated a considerable time before announcing that he would try for the primary nomination. Think Mistake Was Made. The prevailing opinion in political cir cles is that the Municipal Association made a mistake in entering the -primaries; Indeed, members of the association ad mitted as much even before last Satur day's contest. The executive committee which will meet this afternoon Is composed of O. P. M. Jamison, president; John Bain, sec retary; Miller Murdoch, A. S. Patullo, W. L. Johnson, J. W. Bell, John A. Pater son, W. H. Markell. E. OBronaugh, W. W. Payne, II. W. Stone and F. A. Fra zler. Leaders of the Municipal Association, constituting the executive committee, will meet this afternoon to consider what they should do about the results of the Republican primaries of last Saturday. Mayor Williams nomination for re-election was not the dose the association looked" for and Its officers are wondering whether they ought to do something to take the bad taste away or simply to sit still and look pleasant. Must Nominate Shortly. Should the association decide to launch an independent "boom for somebody, as some of its prudent counselors, who op posed the association's entering the pri mary fight, advised In case .Williams should be nominated, the Independent must be nominated by one week from next Saturday, fifteen days before the day fixed for the election, June 5. The cer 'tlflcate of nomination must be signed by at least 3 per cent of the votes cast In Portland last November for presidential electors. The number of signatures nec essary will be 475, inasmuch as the total vote for presidential electors last No vember was about 25,800, -Republican. Democratic, Socialist, Prohibition and People's Party. The time for nominating Jy convention has passed by; therefore nominees could not be chosen by a mass meeting of the reform forces, unless they should after ward be nominated by. a certificate of 475 electors to comply with the form of the law. Jollification by Democrats. Portland's two Democratic" clubs are getting ready to hold a big jollifica tion in honor ef the Democratic candi dates nominated last Saturday, as a preliminary to laying low the haughti ness of .the terrible.' The Young Men's Club, of which G. Wt -Allen Is president, and J. T. Milntr secretary, will meet tonight in, Unity Hall,,Semd and Mer rison streets. The, Multnomah Club, of which C B. Williams": Js president, 'and Bert E. Haney eecretxry. will paeet to morrow night in Hibernian Hall, Sixth and Washington streets. All the De&cratIecaHJiJates are ex pected to att'eRd both meetings.

Directors Grant Hcqucsls of Grand Army and Take Up Sev "cral Other Subjects of Im portance for Action. The city Board of Education held its bimonthly meeting last night, at which the mooted -question of the merit sys tem, recently outlined by the Board, played a leading part in tho transac tions. It was expected that a crowd of teachers and their friends would be on hand to remonstrate, but in this respect there was a disappointment, as the only ovidenco of opposition to tho stand taken by the Board came in the shape of the following resolution from the Woman's Club, which was handed in by Mrs. L. W. Sitton, chairman of the Board, as soon as it opened its proceedings: "Whereas, tho merit system, as out lined by the Board of Education, has caused much uneasiness among the teaching force In our city schools, and believing that in such a condition it is not possible for the teachers to give their best efforts, and further believ ing that the proposed merit system does not outline a fair and just dis tribution of the advance in salaries -voted at tho lastmeetlng of the tax payers; be it "Resolved. That tho Woman's Club petition the honorable Board of Edu cation to rcconsjder its action relative to the introduction of the merit sys tem. On motion of Director WIttenburg, the resolution was referred to the com mittee on examination of teachers, which consists of Director Beach and City Superintendent of Schools Rlgler. After adjournment. Beach stated that he was opposed. to the resolution, while Superintendent Rlgler was noncom mittal, hence the chances arc that the Woman's Club will have its labor for its pains. Director Wittenberg was so anxious to have all the school grounds cleaned up during the Lewis and Clark Expo sition that he offered a resolution, .which was adopted without even the dissenting voice ot Director Williams, requesting the City Water Company to furnish the Board with free water for the purpose ot sprinkling all school lots in conspicuous places while the Fair was in operation. A request from the Oregon-Humane Society, which intends to give au ex hibition at the Marquam next Friday afternoon, to permit the closing of the city public schools on that date in or der that a number of pupils could par tlclpate was srantcd, with the under standing, however, that the yearly practice would henceforth be discon tinued. The matter elicited much dis cussion. A request from the G. A. R. for the usual collection of flowers by pupils for use on Decoration day was granted, and the children will be asked to con tribute as many flowers as possible on the day before, to be gathered up'on the following day by vehicles engaged for that purpose. A request from an organi zation styling Itself the female mem bers of the G. A. R., asking the board to appoint three or four pupils from each school to bring flowers to a desig nated rendezvous on First street with the. Idea that they might be used for decorative purposes in the cemeteries, was ignored, as Secretary Allen, who is an old soldier, and informed accordingly upon matters relating to veterans of the Civil War, reported that the organ ization seeking the co-operation of the board In an effort to Induce the children to help them out in this fashion was a bogus imitation of the genuine article, and had ito connection whatever with the Women's Relief Corps of the G. A. R. The schools will close on June 21. and June 3 was set as the latest date when reappllcations for positions by the teachers could be filed with the board. This was done to enable the board to Investigate intelligently tne situation .In the meantime. It was di rected tha't the reports of the principals should be received on the same day. It was decided to have the building committee report at the next meeting its conclusion relative to the selection of a site for a building to relieve the congestion Incident to the growth of the Williams-Avenue, Holiaday, High land and Irvington districts. Mrs. Dr. Rockey, representing tne Daughters of the American Revolution, asked permission to have a human re production of the American Flag by the pupils of the public schools bn June 14 "Flag day." It was granted unanimously. After granting Secretary Allen per mission to use the benches In the Haw thorne School as seats during the ex ercises at the cemetery on Decoration day, the board adjourned until Monday evening. May 22. City Offenders Before Municipal Judge Hogue. Acting Detective Kay brought fb light an alleged bunco game, operated at 126 Xorth Sixth street, when he arrested Henry Berlind Sunday afternoon on a charge of vagrancy. The case was tried before Judge Hogue yesterday, with the result that the defendant was found guilty. Sentence was suspended for ten 'days, to give .him time o leave Port land. The city officials do not want him here any longer. W. A. Bollinger, who lives at Ho quiam. Wash, was the Intended victim of Berlind, and gave evidence tending to show that Berlind attempted to bunco him, by the aid. of some man in an allege.! pawnshop at 126"Xorth Sixth street Bollinger reached the city in the morning, having Just arrived from a visit to the East. He was met by some one who invited him into the alleged pawnshop., Berlind then- appeared, with a watch he pretended to de3lre' to pawn. Berlind showed the watch to the al leged pawnbroker, and the latter, after examination, said he would lend $29 on it; that it was an excellent watch, and worth" far more. Berlind. however, re fused that sura, saying he was afraid the works would be removed and cheaper ones replaced if he left it. He then walked out with Bollinger, and persuaded him to lend hira. 516, but while the two were on their way to the Union Depot to arrange the deal. Act ing Detective Kay appeared and Ber lind ran. He knew Kay, and-fled to avoid arrest, it is said. Jacob Berlind, the defendant's broth er, gave testimony, saying the accused man was of good character, but very" III. Acting Detective Kay wild that he reported tho operations of the alleged crooked pawnshop recently, and detectives-' were assigned to the case by the Chief, hut they reported it to be all right, and then Kay was'.detailed.

He agreed to leave. . - A ball game, bad booze and a free--for-all fight characterized the Sabbath at Rohse Park, a disreputable "resort that has caused the police endless trouble. Out ot the tangle that resulted. G. E. and E. C. Cllne were snatched by Special Policeman Mallett. They were locked up for being drunk and disor derly, anl when brought before Judge Hogue. yesterday were found guilty and fined $10 each. "I don't know as I care to have these defendants fined very heavily." re marked Deputy City Attorney Fitzger ald "At such a place as Rohse Park they dish out pretty bad booze, and they must expect to stand for a little disorderly conduct." According to the arresting officer, and admissions of the defendants, there was a lively time for a while at the park. After the ball game, it was said, base balls, bats and clubs were flying around through the air in abundance. Tvb decided to cut put the 'Irish milk," explained T. C. Kopf to Judge Hogue, when arraigned on a charge of threatening to kill Proprietor Smith, of the Hoffman Cafe, yesterday morning. "What!" excjalmcd Judge Hogue, "do you really mean you will drink no more whisky? "It's me for a ride on the water wagon." replied Kopf. "How about Smith will you lcavo him alone?" asked the court. "Will I? AV'hy. I'll pass him up like a white chip." "Your Honor, I think this man has ratsvIn his garret." spoke up Deputy City Attorney Fitzgerald. "You mean you think he's insane?" asked Judge Hogue. Mr. Fitzgerald replied that was hi3 meaning-, and it was therefore decided to continue the case for ten days to see what will be the result, as to Kopfs physical condition. The Lewis and Clark Exposition will be a great thing, a3 is generally agreed, but while there are many pleasant things connected with it, there are some vexatious things. For instance, there is the case of Alice M. Porter against "P. C. Matfox. The charge is using obscene and abusive language, and the case is to bo tried out before JuJge Hogue today. The two persons have a lodging house at tho Fair grounds, and although they started In harmoniously, they have fallen out early In the game, and the outcome is yet to be determined. The two -disagreed over the manage ment of the house, and, according to the complainant her partner in the business used very ungentlemanly lan guage toward her. What he said, as allegeH, would not look well in print, and would hardiy get through the post office, if the officials there, saw it first. . Sam Partupulo, of Italian birth, will have to explain to Judge Hogue today what caused him to punch Carlin Car lano, aged 3 years, in the ribs wiln an umbrella. A complaint was lodged against him in the Municipal Court yes terday, when Josle Cariano, shjter of the complainant, called upon Dcputy Dlstrlct Attorney Haney and told of the occurrence. According: to the girls, the defendant came along while they were playing on the sidewalk in front of 669 Fifth .street, and jabbed little Carlin in the ribs. When reproved, he is said to have made threats. "1 will do as I please, and if you have me arrested, I will show who I am." is what the defendant is said to have told the ylrls. Herman Breiter. G. Schmid and August Kratz could not resist the temp tation to open their . saloons a little while on Saturday, primary day, and as a result they are under arrest for violation of the liquor law. Breiter and Schmid were arrested on complaint of Mounted Patrolman Croxford. and the. last named by Captain of Police Bailey. Breiters saloon is situated at Miss issippi avenue and Russell street; G. Schmid's resort Is at Sqllwood and Stanton street, and the Kratz Cafe is at Sixth and Washington streets.

Chief of Police Hunt refused to state, when requested to do so, from what source information came connecting Driver Isaacs. It is evident, however, that .1 brother officer accused Isaacs, as Chief Hunt remarked that he could not divulge the person's name at present, as the accuser did not wish to be known in the matter. "Driver Isaacs positively denies ever entering any Chinese establishment, de nies ever taking any money from them and gives an explanation of why Chinese should refer to him as 'Joe Smith,' " said Chief Hunt. "He states that some Chinese came to him shortly after the shooting affray on Second street, In which a white man was Injured, and asked him to 'let up on them. He says he told them that he had nothing to 'let up on, as he merely took the injured man to the hospital In the wagon and knew noth ing of the case. "Isaacs then explains his connection with the name of Smith. 'What shall we call you?' he says the Chinese asked him. He says he replied to them, 'Oh, call me Smith.' " Driver Isaacs did not explain the neces sity for all this talk between', hlmseir and the Chinese, and although he .de clared to Chief Hunt that he had never entered any Chinese establishment, pa trolmen have frequently watched him, as. he went from place to place. Isaacs also admitted to a policeman that he re cently borrowed some money from Yuen Suey who runs a place at Fifth and Pine streets, and said he had repaid the debt. Isaacs did not go into this detail with Chief Hunt last inght. Saturday night Charlie Law and Hang Wah. Chinese engaged in business at Seventh and GUsan streets, admitted pay ing J2 a month for a period of eight months. They also admitted paying this to a man calling himself "Joe Smith," who was described by them as a little man, who drives a wagon. Upon being told that "Smith" would not be around for the monthly collection any longer, they agreed to pay it to a man they sup posed had been appointed in his stead. Hang Wah and Charlie Law are notor ious lottery agents. They have been ar rested many times, but not within recent months, and have been fined by Municipal Judge Hogue. Chief Hunt detailed a policeman yester day morning to call on Charlie Law ana Hang Wah. The Chinese appeared imme diately. Upon being questioned, they de nied everything. They even denied having any conversation with anyone regarding monthly payments Saturday night, and said the only man they ever paid was Special Officer Franklin, who patrols that beat.
