intimated tliat ouc of the three Grits
macher. Moore and Bailey arc not
liked. Which one. Is not known at this
time.
.Slovcr May Be Affected.
Another man who may be affected is
E. A. Slover, now acting- in the capacity
of Captain, commanding the Upshur
street station at Lewis and Clark JSxpo
sitlon grounds. He ranks as sergeant,
but under present salaries ho receives
the same pay as a patrolman $76 per
month. Captains and detectives receivo
$30 per month.
Slovcr has always stood well with Chief
of Police Hunt and has been pushed for
ward at every possible opportunity. He
is regarded as a competent officer, but
his present position is one that Is desired
by many envious ones and he may be re
duced to a sargcantry and another placed
in his stead.
There are three permanent sergeants
Hogcboom. Slover and Taylor. They can
not be removed by the Mayor or Chief,
except for cause, as they have to pass
civil service examinations. It is said,
however, that in any case -whore It is
desired by the administration to get rid
of any officer, a little time is all that is
required to find something sufficient to
bring charges.
The great question in police circles is
as to who will be the Chief. It is gen
erally believed among the policemen that
a great mistake will be made if a man
is named for the position who has no
previous experience and who is sure to
issue orders and do things that will
bring- chaos and discontent,
Ballcy May Bo Chicl".
That one of the captains should be
promoted, is the general bcllof, and in
this connection the name of Captain Bai
ley Is being talked of. It is understood
that the Lane forces recognize the great
service done by Captain Ballcy and It
would not be surprising, it is sala, should
he be the next Chief.
Captain Ballcy has had much experience
in police work, is familiar with the local
situation an.d by many is regarded as one
who could take hold of the department
and handle It if not Interfered with by
other powers.
Captains Gritzmachor and Moore are
recognized as capable men and it Is
thought by their friends they are well
able to perform the duties of the office
cf Chief of Police, but both were staunch
supporters of the defeated candidate, and
could hardily expect, it is said, to lay
claim to the appointment
Undoubtedly, many changes will be
made by whoever receives appointment
of Chief of Police. There are more men
to handle now than ever before, and every
Chief is sure to have his own way of plac
ing them. Chief Hunt has taken absolute
control of the entire department. Cap
tains became more figureheads, having
no authority whatever beyond the mere
fact that they porformed routine duty In
his absence. What the next Chief will do
remains to be seen.
As is usual when a change is pending
every member of the department is on
the qui vivc, and the result is anxiously
awaited.
TO NEW YORKJN 18 HOURS
Pennsylvania Special Will Go Into
Service Next Sunday.
At 2:15 next Sunday afternoon Pennsyl
vania Line will start its first train on
the new lS-hour schedule out of Chicago.
It is confidently predicted in railroad
circles genorally that the Pennsylvania
management will run this train through
to New York on the initial trip strictly
on schedule time. The first train will
reach New 1ork City at 0:45 Monday
morning1.
Westward bound, the Pennsylvania Spe
cial will leave New York at 3:55 every
afternoon, arriving at Chicago at S:S5
next morning. In addition to the Penn
sylvania Spocial, another new train serv
ice will be inaugurated over the Penn
sylvania Lines next Sunday. The second
train will be known as the New York
Special. It will leave Chicago at S
o'clock in the morning, arriving at Pitts
burs 8:30 same evening, and will reach
New York at S:15 the next morning. This
train will have new equipment through
out. In the perfection of its dining-car serv
ice. In Its modern block system and in all
the appointments of a modern and safe
service, the roads of the Pennsylvania
system are perhaps the finest In America.
It is generally predicted that the inaugu
ration of these two new trains ovor this
line will greatly stimulate travel between
Chicago and New York.
. Dinner on Cutter McCulIoch.
A very pleasant dinner was given last
evening on board the United States
steamship McCulIoch. by Captain J. C

HUSBAND MUST ffl
Wife Uses New Statute to Gain
Financial Support.
FIRST CASE UNDER LAW
Mrs. Catherine DrcRcr DcclareS'Uus
band Has Abandoned Her, and
Asks That He Be Forced to
Give Financial Support.
Another new statute passed by the' last
Legislature was invoked yesterday when
Catherine. Dreger-dStmeneed -suit In tho
State Circuit Court against her husband.
Gustav Dreger, to compcj'bim to support
her and their five children.
Dreger is a tailor,' doing business in
Alblna, and his wafe says his Income Is
large. Ho also owns -valuable real estate.
Judge Frazer Issued an order restraining
Dreger from any way incumbering or dis
posing of his property, real or personal,
and directing him to appear In court at
930 o'clock this morning and show cause
why he should not pay $50 monthly for
the support of his family and J1CO attor
ney's fees.
The new law does not allow the de
linquent husband to put off supporting his
wife until after a long-drawn out litiga
tion, but he must do so at once, and the
further stringent provision is added: "And
provided further, that as against the en
forcement of any such order, the defend
ant shall be barred from claiming any
exemption."
Tho law was drawn by Mr. John F.
Logan, at the suggestion of Judge Cleland
and County Judge Webster. Mr. Logan
appears as attorney for Mrs. Dreger In tho
present proceeding.
The Dresers were married July 14, 1S5S.
in Mayvillc, "Wis., and their three boys
and two girls range in ages from 7 to 16
years. In her complaint Mrs. Dreger sets
forth that the defendant Is addicted to
tho excessive use of intoxicants and fre
quents disorderly and disreputable saloons
and Is the companion of degenerate, vic
ious and drunken associates of both sexes
and has frequently remained away from
homo nights.
Tho plaintiff alleges that she has had
to depend on the assistance of relatives
and neighbors, and says that since Jan
uary. 1301. Dreger has abandoned her and
the children. She also avers that Dreger
has heaped abuse upon her, has threatened
to kill her, and his conduct has rendered
her life intolerable. On account of their
children and from a sense of pride and
respect for the feelings of her husband
and her people, she has continued for
years to bear patiently with him and to
hope that he might reform. Since the
desertion, Mrs. Dreger says she has
worked to provide for herself and off
springs. Dreger is 43 years old. an expert
tailor and cutter, and she avers that
he Is able to cam at least $40 per week,
and also owns 40 acres of land and proper
ty In Salt Lake. Walla Walla and Des
Moines, and is ablo to contribute $30
monthly for their support.
For those who are nervous and run
down Hood's Sarsaparllla Is the Ideal
building-up medicine.

MANYAPPLICANTS AT HAND
Several Rivals' for ' Chief of Police
. and Other Offices Clvil-Sery-r
..-lee Commission .Is. to Be
Cleaned Out.
Rivals for the office of Chief of Police
are looming- up against the Democratic
horizon In tho persona- of John Lamont.
supported by the Mannmg?Sweck-Cham-berlaln-Mallcy
brotherhood, and I. T.
Pecry. boomed by tho crowd of Democrats
which has been dubbed In time past as
antl-Sweck. and which has been led by
such worthies as Peery- himself, George
H. Thomas, HI B. Nicholas, Newton Mc
Coy and other like celebrities. And while
it is mostr strenuously denied- that there
is any cleavage between the old-time, fac
tions. It would not be surprising- If a
sharp scramble should ensue between the
dements that used to be on the warpath.
The Job of Chief of Police Is the most
precious prize, in the eyes of the faithful,
and next Is that City Engineer. Each
pays 00 a month. Some Democrats say
that Mayor Lane might well retain Wan
zer as City Engineer, but there' is a fierce
demand for his decapitation from Demo
crats eager to see Republicans cast into
outer darkness, where . they themselves
haro been walling and gnashing their
teeth so many years.
Lane's victory has Intoxicated the Dem
ocratic hosts with a joy that sees no abating-
even as the triumph grows old. It is
so Ions' since the Democrats had a chance
to run the city, and they have been
plunged into such depths of despair, that
they began to wonder if the sun would
ever be bright again.
Therefore, wonder need not be expressed
at tho demand of some Democratic patri
ots that Mayor Lane "clean out" as many
Republicans as possible. They ask that the
new Mayor dismiss the Park Board, the
Water Board and the Health Board, In
order that Democrats may be put in pos
session of those places for distribution
of salaried offices which the boards con
trol, such as those of the City Physician
and the Health Officer, under the Health
Board; those of superintendent of the
Water Department .and of Chief Engineer,
under the Water Board, and that of Park
Superintendent, under tho Park-Board.
Boards May Be Held.
But influential counselors of the new
Mayor will advlsa that those boards be
not dismissed. They- will point out that
the Water Board apd the. Park Board
have given good" satisfaction. Such was
tho onlnion expressed Tcsterday-by three
of the new Mayor's closest friends and
counselors.
The board which Democrats desire to
get at moat Is the Civil Service Commis
sion, which, they say. has been guilty of
partiality In examining- and grading- appli
cants for office. They say tnat some
applicants who have made low grades
have been marked up on account of pol
itical favoritism, above other more satis
factory persons. It Is broadly hinted in
Mayor-elect Lane's circle of advisers that
ho will "clean out" the commission first
of all. The charter will allow him to
appoint only oner -of the three new" mem
bers and the Council -will appoint the
two others. But even so. Democrats aver
that, the commission .would, bo mora sat
isfactory now. The threat has been
uttered that the one member whom the
Mayor shall appoint will delve Into the
records of the commission and learn who
have been graded, high through favorit
ism. "Dr. 'Lane Jwlil carry out the spirit of
tho civil service rules faithfully," said
one of his Democratic advisers yester
day. "But frauds will bo ferreted out
and those city employes whose gradlngs
In tho examinations were falsely made
will be detected and 'will be discharged."
Ono of the positions which will un
doubtedly go to a Democrat is that; of
Captain of Detectives, which pays 30 a
month, but which has been vacant since
the death of Sam Simmons. Among- tho5e
mentioned for the place Is Patrick Maher,
who has had considerable experience on
the force as a patrolman and as a de
tective. Others are J. T. Wilson, who
sought the place when Simmons was ap
pointed; William Morgan, formerly a
patrolman: John Cordano. now Deputy
Sheriff, and Lou Hartman, now a member
of tho detective force.
Musicale at Washington Building.
Mrs. Olive M. Leonard, hostess for
Belllngham week at the Washington
building-, and her assistants will be at
home tomorrow to the. other hostesses at
the Exposition, to all the clubwomen of
Portland and Oregon. At 2:30 o'clock In
the afternoon the following- musical pro

All Salem Will Come to Fair.
SALEM. Or.. June 7. (Special.)
Salem will be a dead town June 14, which
will be Salem day at tho Lewis and
Clark Fair. Not only have the merchants
decided to close their stores on that day,
but every cigar store, every confection
ery shop, every ico cream parlor and
every saloon will be closed by their pro
prietors, and If the closing movement
does not extend to drugstores It will be
only because a sejise of duty forbids.
All the prominent merchants are mak
lng- an effort to sell tickets for the Fair
on Salem day, and it is certain that the
Capital City will bo represented at the
Exposition by every. person who can get

for the person who stays. Never before
in Its history has Salem been so tnor
oughly a "closed" town as it will be on
