CHANGES HIS MEN
s
Lewis Fills Office With Friends
of Ownership.
ALL ORIGINAL DUNNE MEN
At Mayor's Dictation Chicago Cor
poration Counsel Effects Gen
eral Shake-Up to Place
Ownership Men.
CHICAGO, Oct. 6.-(SpecIal.)-The blg
geBt shake-up In tho history of the Cor
poration Counsel's office Is scheduled for
tomorrow. Corporation Counsel James
Hamilton Lewis has decided to drop Rob
ert Redfleld, who has had charge of the
assessments made by the Board of Local
Improvements, and to put in his place
Charles Mitchell, the real estate expert
in Controller McGann's office. 'William
H, Sexton. Chief Assistant Corporation
Counsel, is scheduled for retirement,
though Mayor Dunne appointed Mr. Sex
ton's father-in-law, Andrew M. Lynch,
superintendent of the House of Correc
tion. MacLay Hoyne and John "W. Beck
with also are on the list for retirement.
The shake-up is meant, it Is said, to
give places to friends of municipal owner
ship, who are anxious to get jobs in the
Corporation Counsel's office. Mr. Lewis
is reorganizing- at the request of the
Mayor. The dropping of Redfleld and Sex
ton will be like a dentist's operation, be
cause they have many friends who say
they are friendly to the Mayor and mu
nicipal ownership. It Is whispered that
a number of young lawyers are hungry
for the Jobs In the office and that they;
claim the positions because they were
"original Dunne" men.
"Of course J do not make the changes of
my own volition,'' says Mr. Lewis, "but
there will be many changes In my office.
The Corporation Counsel's office must
have men who are friends of the Mayor's
plan."
LEON HAUSER DISAPPEARS
Stepfather Fears the Boy May Have
Been 'Drowned.
Leon Hauser, aged 1G years, formerly
an -elevator operator In the Oregonlan
building. Is missing, and his disappear
ance is the cause of much anxiety on the
part of his relatives. To Captain of Po
lice Moore, late yesterday afternoon, O.
1. Chapel, step-father of the boy, de
clared his belief that some evil has be
fallen him, or that he has shipped on
some vessel.
According to Mr. Chapel's report to Cap
tain Moore, Leon talked a great deal of
going to sea, and is said to have spent a
good deal of time along the water front.
It is feared he may have fallen over
board, or, if he is alive, that he has
signed aboard one of the many ships in
the harbor for a sea voyage.
"We are greatly worried over the boy's
disappearance," said Mr. Chapel, at po
Jlce headquarters. "He has not been seen
since October 2, at which time he was
in the Oregonlan building, chatting with
the elevator operators, with whom he
worked for a long time. He quit his post
tion there in July to attend the Behnke
"Walker Business College. He was of a
romantic turn of mind, and thought he
would like to .go to sea. He talked a
great deal of that, and he may have gone.
We fear that he may have fallen over
board, however, and are anxious for news
of him."
A description of the boy, as furnished
the police, follows: Age, 16 years; height,
5 feet 11 Inches; slender build; thin Hps;
large ears; light, wavy hair; gray eyes;
long arms; quiet and unassuming.
Immediately upon receipt of the infor
mation. Captain Moore instituted an in
vcstlgation.
ONE PASSENGER IS HURT
.Arthur "Wood Badly Bruised in a
Street-Car Collision.
In a collision between car No. 150, on the
Woodstock branch of the Portland Con
solidated system, and tripper No. 42, on
the same line, Arthur Wood was hurled
to the ground and received Injuries more
or less serious, and. many passengers were
shaken up. The accident occurred at 5:30
o'clock yesterday afternoon, at Grand
avenue and Morrison street.
Soon after the collision, Dr. A. C. Pan
ton, physician for the company, took
charge of the Injured man, who was re
moved to his home in Center Addition,
"on the Montavllla division. The victim
was in great pain, and his head, caused
him much distress. He was unable to 4le
down, and It also troubled him to stand
or walk. He was badly bruised, but there
were no bones broken, according to Dr.
Panton.
At the time of the accident, both cars
were crowded. The tripper was following
close behind the leader, and rammed It
on the curve at Grand avenue and Mor
rison street. The collision was severe,
and knocked Woods from the rear plat
form of the forward car. It was the fall
to the ground that injured him. There
was considerable excitement for a time,
especially among the women passengers,
but order -was sbon restored.
Surprise was expressed by some who
saw the collision, because, as they said,
of the dangerous practice in vogue in
Portland of cars following each other so
closely.

TO INQUIRE INTO DELAY OVER
. MEMORIAL COLUMN.
Appoints Committees to Inquire Into
Offers for Sale of Statuary
and Wild Animals.
The question of monuments figured con
spicuously in the deliberations of the Park
Board yesterday morning, and the Lewis
and Clark Corporation came in for a
large share of attention In consequence
of having failed to complete the job of
erecting a memorial column in the City
Park to the famous explorers, as agreed
upon. Wrhen President Roosevelt was
here, a couple of years ago. Impressive
ceremonies were held "at the laying of
the cornerstone of the Lewis and Clark
monument, but since then the Idea has
become lost In the whirl of other attrac
tions. Ion Lewis and Rev. Thomas L.
Eliot were appointed a committee to con
fer with the Fair Commission on the
"Subject.
The monument in honor of those mem
bers of the Second "Oregon Volunteers
who died In the Philippines also came up
for consideration. Sometime ago public
spirited local citizens subscribed several
thousand dollars to a fund for the erec
tion of a suitable monument to the mem
ory of the dead In the North Plaza block,
but it also has drifted Into a lapsed state,
for some reason or other, and yesterday
the Park Board decided to take immediate
action. With that object In view. Auditor
Devlin was directed to communicate with
Colonel Jackson, chairman of the citizens'
committee, and report to the board at its
next meeting.
A communication was received from P.
Rossi and J. Zegglo, the Italian Commis
sioners to the Lewis and Clark Exposi
tion, offering for sale a monumental mar
ble fountain, surmounted by a bronze fig
ure representing an angel; a reproduction
of an antique Roman bathtub In Carrara
marble, which could be used as an im
mense jardiniere, and a trlplo represented
by three bronze fauns supporting a mar
ble basin.
The Italian commissioners set forth that
these three articles were conceived and
modeled 6y Sculptor R. Romanclli, of
Italy, professor of the Royal Academy, of
Florence, who Is described as one of. the
greatest artists of that country- The
statuary was sent here, from the St.
Louis Exposition, where It- is' claimed 11
'was awarded the grand prize.
On account of the heavy expense in
volved In shipping them back to Italy, tqe
commissioners offered them to the Park
Board at a bargain, and Messrs. Eliot and
Lewis were appointed a committee to In
vestigate the matter.
B. Lee Paget was given a vote of thanks
for donating to the Park four African
geese now at the Fair grounds.
L. L. Hawkins reported, that at the
Jabour collection of animals at the Fair
grounds were an exceptionally fine speci
men of African Hon, leopard and polar
bear for sale. Commissioners Hawkins
and Meyer were appointed .a committee to
Investigate the feasibility of purchasing
the animals.
The expenses of the Park for October
were estimated at J12&6.40.

LIGHTSHIP AGROUND
Columbia River No. 50 Driven
Ashore in Gale.
SEAMANSHIP SAVES VESSEL
Lacking Motive Power and AVlth
.Rudder Gone, Twice-Wrecked
Lightship Goes on Shore.
In No Serious Danger.
ASTORIA, Or.. Oct. 6. (Special.) Co
lumbia River lightship. No. 50, the vessel
that made the famous overland trip across
McKenzle Head a few years ago. Is again
In trouble. This time she lies hard
aground on the sand beach of the river
a short distance inside Capo Disappoint
ment light, and the fact that she was not
totally wrecked and that nono of the
members of her crew was Injured Is due
to good luck, coupled with the excellent
seamanship of her master. Captain Joseph
Hani man.
About 4:30 this morning, when the wind
was blowing at a rate of fully SO miles an
hour, the lightship parted her mooring
chain and went adrift. As the gale was
from the southwest. Captain Harrlman,
lacking motive power, was unable to run
the vessel offshore, so he set sail and
headed her for the mouth of the river, in
tending to drive her inside over the break
ing bar. Just as the lightship was cross
ing the bar her rudder was carried away.
Drifting practically helpless, the vessel
was driven toward Peacock Spit, on the
north side of the river entrance. Into what
appeared to be 'certain destruction. As
she struck the spit the seas washed clear
over her, but a big breaker carried her
across the sands, tearing away her rolling
chocks and keel, then across the Inside
channel, and finally, about 8 o'clock this
morning, landed her head on, on the srtnd
beach midway between Cape. Disappoint
ment light and the east battery at Fort
Canby.
Captain Stuart and the Cape Disappoint
ment llfcsaving crew went to her assist
ance as quickly as possible, but, owing
to the heavy seas running, they were un
able to reach the vessel with their boats.
After two attempts a line was shot on
board and the members of the lightship's
crew were brought safely ashore in
breeches buoys.
The vessel stands upright tmd is rest
ing easily. At low water she is high and
dry. but at high tide tho seas pound her
heavily, It Is thought she can be floated
readily by kedging her Into Baker's Bay If
work is commenced on her immediately,
before she makes a bed In the sand.
In striking whero she did the lightship
was bpth fortunate and unfortunate. Had
she struck a few hundred feet farther out
she would have hit a ledge of rocks that
would have soon knocked he rto nieces.
while had her course been a hundred feet
farther up the river she would have slid
Into deep water In the Baker's Bay chan
nel. As soon as the accident was renortud
the tug Tatoosh and the lighthouse tender
uoiumoine were hastened down, but, ow
ing to the rough seas, they could not an-
proach near enough to render any assist.
anceThe Point Adams llfesavlng crew
aiso went, out ana stood by the lightship
uniu every one was saieiy ashore.
