PRDHiS OUT FOR
STRAIGHT TICKET
Coaxing of Democrats Has No
Effect on Cold Water
Forces.
AMOS MAKES STATEMENT
J reminds Managers of Citizens Move
ment of Certain Facts Which
Are Not to His Liking and
Comments Thereon.
Prohibitionists have live nominees on
the citizens' ticket and arc told they
ought to vote that ticket entire it they
expect the reform forces to vote for the
jive Prohibitionists.
But the Prohis bravely declare they
will vote their own ticket straight, and if
!ie of their nominees were Indorsed by
the citizens' convention, that was simply
because the live were too good to" be
passed over. Therefore the Prohis credit
their citizen brethren with nothing more
than good horse sense in taking up with
the "dry" brethren.
But the citizen brethren reply that
much as- "dry" prophets like I. H. Amos,
F McKercher and B. Lee Paget call to
the anti-booze Hock to vote the cold
water ticket straight, the flock will not
obey, and that many of the rum foes
will join the citizen camp on election day.
Vote Valuable to Lane.
In a close contest the S00 or 400 Prohi
bition votes in Portland might be a god
tend to Lane. None of them will be cast
'or Williams; that Is manifest, though
the chairman of the party in Oregon, I.
IT, Amos, declares he would rather vote
tor Williams than for Lane. The Will
lams people are highly pleased over the
promise of the Prohis staying out of the
lane camp, and think the brave stand of
the cold-water brethren is proper.
In the eyes of a backboned Prohi, the
Republican and the Democratic parties
are an equal abomination, because both
ttand for the licensing of the liquor
traffic. Therefore, they look on Williams
and Lane both as tarred with the same
i tick and as unworthy of their votes,
Thtlr own nominee for Mayor, B. Lec
Paget, they offer as the only candidate
lit to run on a reform platform.
That Candidate Paget will stay in the
race is settled, and this means Lane will
not receive the Prohl vote: at least not
all of It. Mr. Paget said yesterday that
he had not been asked to withdraw and
had no intention of pulling out.
Prohis Are Indignant.
Prohis are sore because those whom
they call the "slatcmakers" of the citi
zens" convention would not allow the
Indorsement of the dry" candidate for
Tenth Ward Councilman. D. B. Morgan,
and took up W. T. Vaughn, Democratic
nominee, a man whom Mr. McKercher
sterday called "no good"; again, be
cause the slatemakers "hypnotized" H.
A. Stone. Fourth Ward cold-water nomi
nee for Councilman, into withdrawing
from that nomination and accepting the
citizens' nomination for CouncIl-at-Large,
thereby stealing Stone from the Prohl
camp and leaving them without a Moses
in the Fourth Ward, and because Dr.
Tpe raid he didn't want the Prohibition
nomination or indorsement even If he
could get it.
Not that Prohis desired to boost Lane;
oh ro. Still, they would have liked to
be coaxed and wheedled and fondled.
Then they might perhaps have gone into
a reform, movement for election of a
non-partisan ticket.
"If we're worth having." said Mr. Mc
Kercher, "we're worth courting."
But Mr. Amos wouldn't tie up with
Lane under any circumstances.
"I'd rather vote for Williams," he cried.
Yes, confound it!"
Call Him Inconsistent.
He was encircled by a squad of Munici
pal Association stalwarts. Including John
Bain, Miller Murdoch and J. T. Wilson.
Fast and furious were the word volleys
as the bunch stood on Fourth-street In
front of a saloon. But the stalwarts
couldn't budge Amos. And they thought
him the most inconsistent man in town.
One of them said just that.
"Let me recite a romance," spoke up
Mr. Amos, who cleared his throat and
began:
"A little while ago the Municipal' Asso
ciation held a meeting and some of us
Prohis attended. So did a certain Demo
crat who now heads the citizens' ticket
for Councilman-at-Large, by name,
Flcgel.
That Democrat advised the association
to go into the Republican primary. He
knew that whatever the outcome, there
would be a division of the Republican
party; for Flegel is first of all a Demo
crat and he never Is found anywhere than
in the Democratic camp.
"Another advisor of the association
Mas Miller Murdoch, also a Democrat
once and three years ago a boomer of
Jnman. Democratic nominee for Mayor.
"Doesn't it look as if the Democrats
used the Municipal Association for all it
was worth and then its twin brother, the
citizens' convention.
That Democratic Scheme.
"Well, the Democratic scheme worked.
The split in the Republican party after
the primaries took place, just as the
Democrats schemed for it. The split off
segment Indorsed the Democratic candi
date. In. the indorsing convention" there
was a slate, but it was smashed in ncvrraJ
places. Two or three got on who weren't
oxpected. One of them was R. R. Steele,
Prohibitionist, for Councilman-at-Large.
The slate had only one Prohl, H. W.
Stone: he was nominated by a. big vote
and the slatemakers trusted to his great
popularity to carry through the whole
slate. But Ills popularity gave another
Prohl."
Whereat Mr. Amos lamented that the
blatemakers had taken Mr. Stone from
the Fourth Ward, where he was to run
as ward Councilman, and had put him
up for Councilman-at-Large. This was
done last Sunday, chiefly by E. S. J. Mc
Allister, attorney for the Anti-Saloon
League, and Prohis knew nothing of it.
Mr Stone was "coaxed and hammered,"
Mr. Amos said, until he gave In.
"Wasn't that a grand thing for .good
folks to do on Sunday?" asked Mr. Amos
ironically.
Fan-Tan Players Arrested.
Early yesterday afternoon Sheriff Word
and several of his deputies raided a Chi
nese gambling-house at 93 Second street,
.near the police station, and arrested
even fan-tan players and Tee Mow, the
keeper of the game. The men were re
leased on $50 cash bail each. The doors
tf the place were secured with heavy
iron bolts, but the officers had nb diffi
culty in forcing an entrance and taking
sill ot the inmates into custody. This is
the first raid In Chinatown for several
months past. The games are supposed to
have been kept closed from that time un
til recently.

brother and sister corroborated her evi
dence. A letter was introduced in evi
dence written by Jurgens to his wife of
fering to come and live with her again
and forget the past. Judge George grant
ed the divorce with some reluctance.
Habitual drunkenness -was the com
plaint of Minnie Brady, who was granted
a divorce from Claud W. Brady. They
were married only a few years ago and
formerly lived in Tacoma. Mrs. Brady
testified that her husband came home
drunk several times a "week, and often

ing. He was disagreeable and threatened
her with bodily harm. She was allowed

Carrie Poe-told the court that J. M. Poe,

AIMEE AUST1X WINS SUIT.
Oscar Vanderbllt Ordered to Pay
Large Sum for Diamonds.
A verdict for 526 in favor of Aimee
Austin, a ahow girl, against Oscar Van
derbllt, was returned by a Jury In Judge
George's court yesterday. Miss Austin,
in October, 1M2, In Los Angeles, desired
to borrow money, and gave her diamonds
to Vanderbllt, who was a friend, to pro
cure a loan for her. He kept the stones
himself and gave her $150 and subsequent
ly sent JS0 to her to San Francisco. The
following September Vanderbllt sold the
diamonds, so he testified, for 7255, and
offered Miss Austin $55. which was the
balance after deducting the $200 which he
lont her. She refused to accept, assarting
that she paid $300 fqr the jewels 13 years
ago, and that they were worth much
more now, diamonds having advanced In
price In recent years. The plaintiff testi
fied that she communicated with Van
derbllt. and cauwd Fred T. Merrill to
write letters to him, and wag unable to
procure the return of her diamonds,
although she offered to repay the $200.
She also had Dave Honeyman call on
Vanderbllt In his offce at Chicago.
Vanderbllt is now a resident of Hood
River, where he has a fruit orchard. He
was formerly in the show printing busi
ness In Chicago and was also for 17 years
in the employ of the Northern Pacific
Railway Company. Hia. defense was that
he waited for his money and notified Miss
Austin to pay it. which she did not do.
He said the diam&nds were big off-color
circus stones meant to create a large
flash for small outlay, and that the price
he sold them for, $255, was all they were
worth.
Sheriff Raids Poker Game.
Another poker game was discovered yes
terday by Sheriff Word and Chief Deputy
Sheriff Morden at 2tK Burnslde street, and
eight men were placed under arrest for
violating the gambling law. The game
was in progress in a small building dis
playing a store sign, and a few boxes of
goods were arranged in front to give the
place a businesslike aspect. A lookout
was on duty, but the Sheriff and his as
sistant caught him off his guard and ef
fected an entrance into the room used
for gambling purposes and found the game
In operation. The men captured were Ed
Kavanaugh. dealer; Thomas Davis, Henry
Schweer. J. T. Locke. Fred Talcot, Jim
Smith. Edward Mack and Al Utlger. Kav
anaugh deposited $200 cash bail and was
released. The others were locked up in
the County Jail.
Argument In Reed Will Case.
Arguments were made before Judge
Webster yesterday In tile Amanda W.
Reed will contest case. Joseph Simon, In

day In a speech. In which he endeavored
to convince the court that Mrs. Reed
nevenost her residence in Oregon while
she had a home In Pasadena, and that
her will was not subject to the California
statute.
William M- Gregory, for the contestants,
responded, and he tried to establish the
fact that Mrs. Reed was a resident of
Pasadena at the time of her death. Mr.
Gregory read a number of depositions.
The argument will be resumed today.

B. A. Worthington Says Jt Is
Too Flattering to Refuse.
LEAVES PORTLAND JUNE 1
Is Not Ready to Announce Just Xow
What His Position Will Be for
Which He Resigns From
Harriman Lines.
B. A. Worthington. gneral manager of
the Northwest division of the Harriman
system, returned to the city yesterday
morning after a week's absence in Chi
cago. During the day he was burled
with work having an accumulation ot
seven days routine and special matters
to consider and dispose ot before he was
ready to take up what new business had
arisen or was coming up for his exami
nation. Mr. Worthington. in discussing his sud
den and unexpected resignation from the
directorate of the Northwest division, hay
nothing more definite lo announce than
the reiteration of his resignation.
"I can say nothing more at this time
than 1 have said," explained Mr. Worth
ington. "I have sent my resignation to
Mr. Kruttschnltt at Chicago and will
leave the managership I now hold on
June 1. Other than that. I cannot Eay
anything at this time. I may add, how
ever, that the offer I have had Is so flat
tering and so much better than anything
I expected at this time that I could not
in justice to myself fall to accept it."
"No.'Vadded the speaker with a smile,
"I cannot tell by whom the offer was
made or what the position is. But you
may say that I leave Portland with regret
and in some ways with reluctance. I
have come to like the place and the peo
ple. At no city In which I have been
located have there been men so con
genial and so pleasant to meet, both In a
business way and socially, as those with
whom I have been thrown since coming
here as the general manager ot the Har
riman lines."
Nothing is known here as to the possl-
Lble successor of Mr. Worthington,
though there Is some expectation that J.
P. O'Brien, now general superintendent
of the O. R. & N.. may fall heir to the
place. Mr. O'Brien has been in the serv
ice of the O. R. & N. for many years In
various capacities and has proved him
self a man well qualified by nature and
experience for the place at the head of
the Oregon lines. If the apparent pol
icy of Mr. Harriman in appointing out
side men to manage the Northwest divi
sion should not be applied at this time, it
is very probable that Mr. O'Brien would
be the lucky man to secure the position.
Mr. Worthington will remain In Port
land until June 1, when he will leave to
take charge of the new office to which
he has been appointed. In the meantime
it is expected that his successor will be
named by Mr. Kruttschnltt, director of
maintenance and operation of Chicago. It
is not thought, however, that the new
manager will reach Portland much before
the first of the month, if so soon as that.
Secret Service Office Opened.
An office of the United States Secret
Sen-ice has been opened on the third floor
of the Federal Building. Sixth and Mor
rison streets, Secret" Service Agent
Stephen A. Connell being in charge. A
branch office will be placed in the Gov
ernment building at the Exposition
grounds within a few days. Agent Frank
R. Grimes will assist Mr. Connell in the
work. These gentlemen, with a staff of
assistants, will proceed to make It wrm
for any counterfeiters who attempt-to
pass bad money during the excitement of
the Fair, and will also attend to other
transgressions against Uncle Sam's laws.
