FEND OF
James A. Bamford, of Mount
Tabor, Goes Security for
Frank E. Stevens.
NOTED MUSICIAN WRITES
Man to Wliom lie Gave a Letter of
Introduction Uses It to Victim
ize Local Musician for a
ConsIderablc'Sura.
Through his desire to asi5t a musi
cian In whom he had no personal Inter
est whatever, and on tho written rec
ommendation of Clarence Eddy, concert
organixt of Carncglo Hall, New York,
who was in Portland In August last,
James A. Bamford, also a w.cll-known
musician of Portland, and rcsldont of
Mount Tabor, finds hlmRclf responsible
for the payment of ?S75, for which
he got nothing of value. Clarence Eddy,
a musician of world-wide fame, came
to Portland last Summer, and with him
as agent was Frank E. Stevens, who
had buen with the musician in many
other places. Mr. Bamford, being
greatly interested in music, heard Clar
ence Eddy In his Portland concerts and
incidentally formed his acquaintance
and that of Stevens. The latter repre
sented himself as agent for the New
Orleans Pipe Organ Company.
Mr. Bamford. who had made a prac
tice of helping churches get organs
where he could, was somewhat Inter
ested in the organs Stevens claimed to
furnish churches because of the amall
ne8 of the price asked, it being about
HO per cent less than what other houses
wore charging for practically the same
kind of instrument. Stevens wa then
doing some work for the Unitarian
Church and had the appearance of be
ing perfectly honest and reliable.
Indorses First .Notes.
He came to Mr. Bamford and said that
he needed VTo with, which to get some sup
plies, but that the bank had not been
inclined to let him have it. Mr. Bamford
hesitated a moment, but on a strong let
ter of recommendation of Clarence Eddy,
he consented to Indorse his note for 575
at the bank, thinking that he was safe
in doing so.
Shortly afterwards Stevens came to Mr.
Bamford and showed him a signed con
tract to build a pipe organ In one of the
churches of Tacoma for $1000. It ap
peared to be all straight and In due form.
Steveng then said that he needed some
money, about $200. to get the material
to build the organ with, and that if Mr.
Bamford would help him out ' he would
transfer to him SO shares of stock in the
New Orleans Pipe Organ Company,
worth, he said, $100 a share, and also give
him an assignment of the $1000 pipe organ
contract at Tacoma. The security seemed
ample, and would have been ample, had j
any part ol It been worth the paper.
Coupled with the strong letter of recom
mendation from Clarence Eddy, and the
assigned contract and the 30 shares of
stock, Mr. Bamford concluded he would
be safe in advancing Sevens what he said
he needed to carry out hip Tacoma con
tract. So he again indorsed a note for
5300, which with the former one of 575
made up a total of 537a.
Stevens Raises the Checks.
The 5300 was placed on deposit at the
First National Bank, and It was ex
pressly stipulated that the money was
only to be drawn out to pay for supplies
for the pipe organ contract, and then
only on checks signed by James A. Bam
ford. Stevens soon came to Mr. Bamford and
asked for a check for 575 to take up the
first note the former had indorsed for
him, also one 550 check, two 525 checks
and ten 55 checks, which he .said were
needed for making payments on material.
These were furnished him, and Stevens
went away. A short time afterwards Mr.
Bamford was amazed when he was asked
by the bank cashier what about that 575
note he indorsed for Stevens.
""Why, exclaimed Mr. Bamford, "I gave
a check to pay that off."
He was assured that it had not been
paid. Then on Investigation it was found
that of the 5300 oh deposit at the First
National all had been checked out but 55.
Stevens had raised the checks so as to
get all that money out of the bank.
Bogus Pipe Organ Contract.
Mr. Bamford then began to see that
something was wrong, and telegraphed to
Tacoma about the organ contract Stevens
said he had, and the answer was that
Stevens never had a contract to furnish
an organ In that city. Then he knew that
he had been swindled out of 5375 in a
most clever manner. The stock in the
New Orleans Pipe Organ Company he
does not consider worth a cent. He said
last evening that he would not even take
the trouble to investigate ts probable
value, as he was satisfied that the stock
was forged, as was the organ contract.
Mr. Bamford wrote Clarence Eddy the
fact of his being swindled out of the
5375 on the strong recommendation that
musician had furnished Stevens, and last
night he received an answer from Eddy
expressing his deepest regrets that he
gave Stevens the letter of recommenda
tion. Professor Eddy said further that he
had found Stevens utterly irresponsible
and a fraud, but did not inclose a check
to make Mr. Bamford's loss good. Mr.
Bamford said last evening that he was
misled bv the letter of recommendation
from Professor Eddy, who is known the
world over. He ascertained last week
that Stevens had been in Seattle recent
ly. He said that he would have to pay
the 5375, and remarked that It was a
pretty severe lesson, and one that would
not be repeated with him.
Bamford's Letter to Eddy.
Mr. Bamford's letter to Professor Eddy
follows:
Portland, Or., Oct, 28. 3005. Mr. Clarence
Eddy. My dear sir: While you were in our
city last Summer you gave to one Frank E.
Stevens, of New Orleans, a, splendid letter
of recommendation. As a result of this, I
wan Induced to indorse his paper to the
amuunt of $375. It now transpires that this
Mr. Stevens Is a rascal and that I shall have
to endure the hardship of making this amount
good. This, to one In your circumstances,
would be a trifling matter, but to one who is
a working man and who has an Invalid wife
on whom he has spent , his earnings for the
past ten years. It Is a burden almost un
bearable. I have barely stated the facts, not
desiring to burden you with details which would
Wn of no Interest to you, and 1 sincerely hope
in the future you will be more discreet In
giving out letters, as you must know that a
letter from a man of world-wide fame like
yourself would carry much weight. Tours
sincerely. JAS. A. BAMFORD,
Mount Tabor Station.
Letter From Professor Eddy.
Professor Eddy sent the following letter
concerning Stevens' to The Oregonlan:
Carnegie Hall, New Tork. Nov. 15. 1005.
i Editor The Oregonlan) Dear Sir: Tou will
render a. .service to myself as well as to your
community by publishing the retraction, of
the recommendation I gave to one Frank E.
I .Steven -while I wag in your city the firt
, week In August. 1903. I authorized htm at
the same time to make certain concert en
casement" for me In that section of the
country. He left me In the lurch at Seattle,
and proved himself absolutely unreliable
and Irresponsible. He has "usurped his au
thority and misrepresented me to ueh an
extent that I wish now to warn the public
against having any dealings with him. Tours
very truly, CLARENCE EDDV.
Concert Organist.
HEARD IN THE
ROTUNDAS
((ES BOM the present outlook I hardly
I think we shall begin placer min
ing operations around Grant's Pass be
fore December 1, which Is Just about a
month behind time,' remarked Dr. W. H.
Flannagan, of that city, at the Imperial
Hotel yesterday afternoon. "We usually'
start about November 1. but the dry sea
son has set us back for a month. Wc
depend upon the rainy weather to fill the
creeks so that we can obtain sufficient
water for the placer mining.
"There are more than 137 placer mines
within a radius of 40 miles or Grant's
Pas. but very few. If any of them, are
being worked now. This means that 403
or 500 miners are anxiously awaiting rain,
as its appearance means work for them.
A good many of the farmers work as
miners during the "Winter months, and wc
have but little difficulty in getting hands.
"However, the miners arc all very much
elated over tho prospects for this year, as
they believe the output will be unusually
large. If wc have lots of rain, enabling
us to control all the water we desire, we
can work the mines to splendid advan
tage until the dry season commences In
the Spring. Last year we had a very
poor year, owing to the scarcity of rain,
but as two dry Winters rarely ever come
together, all of the miners are antici
pating big things. Usually when we have
a dry Winter,, the next rainy season is
very" heavy.'
fg T IS generally supposed that the ad
1 vent of civilization into a new coun
try means ruin to the wild animal, but
such is not always the case when the wily
coyote is in the game," said Samuel W.
Burns, a, merchant of Muskogee, L T.. at
the Oregon Hotel recently. . "As a matter
of fact, the coyotes thrive upon civiliza
tion down in our part of the oountry and
have become such a menace to the farm
ers that their extermination might be
termed a serious question.
"Before the opening of the lands the
covotes wore not to be found in unusual
numbers in the Indian Territory. But as
soon as the white people began farming
the land the coyotes began multiplying,
until the rural districts are now almost
overrun with" them. Hundreds of them
are killed off, but others seem to take
their places. Now the coyotes have an
easy living, where before they had a hard
time to find enough to eat, this alone
keeping down their numbers, as they find
ti.. nmtitrv nnri small olirs ready prey.
They have become so bold that Uiey even
steal the chickens in aayiigni aimusi un
der the farmer's nose. Coyotes are tho
on,nrt.t rtf All nnlmals. and they keep
shv of traps and poisoned meat. The
most practical way 6l catching them Is
by grayhounds, but that is a slow pro
cess.
7T-SA B. THOMSON, one oi me uuai
t known men and fofemost politi
cians of Umatilla County, was at the
Perkins yesterday. Mr. Thomson is a
stockman and farmer, and has one of
the finest Irrigated tracts in Eastern
Oregon. During the recent irrigation
agitation in Umatilla County, caused
by the announcement that Secretary
Hitchcock would notnnish the Umatilla
project, Mr. Thomson took a leading
part In framing and forwarding the re
monstrance sent to wasningion agmnsi
the decision.
Besides having the finest stock and
the most fertile fields, Mr. Thomson has
th riintinrtlon of havlnc been the in
direct cause for much of the land-fraud
Investigation which has startled the
state for the past year or more. Ahout
he was Register of 'he
Land Ofllce at La Grande, and while
holding the place was accused or nav
ing, on behalf of Receiver Bartlett. at
ttrmtfirt to -secure a fee for favorable
reports on a number of claims taken by
Pendleton men.
Thomson was declared not guilty by
a Jury In the late Judge Bellinger's
court here, but the facts brought out
resulted in the Indictment and convic
tion of Charles Cunningham, the Uma
tilla merino king, on a charge of con
spiracy to defraud the Government. It
was shown at the trial of Thomson that
the Pendleton men filing on the claims
were bartenders, gamblers and aheep
herdersf secured by Cunningham, who
expected to receive the land for sheep
range, in turn for having advanced all
the expense money, together with a
bonus.
JK. COL BEY, late of New Tork. and
now of San Francisco, does not
like to shine by reflected greatness.
Mr. Colby is at the Portland for a short
visit in the city on business. Thanks to
the kindness of a friend it became
known that he was a cousin of Everett
Colby, the New Jersey reformer, who,
with his charming young wife and his
automobile has been making h. personal
campaign against the political machine
of the state.
"What can you tell about your Jer
sey cousin?" Mr. Colby was asked.
"I can't tell you anything," was the
reply. "He can't help my being his cou
sin, and 1 don't want to shine by re
flected greatneBs."
"I should think," interrupted the
friend, "you would be proud of your
cousin."
"Wcll.v said Colby, "there are other
Coloys. There is one in the insurance
business with a man named Hyde or
McCurdy, or someone back in New
Tork."
"Whisper it," advised the friend.
"I do," said Colby, "only I Just men
tion it to show that Evorett can't pick
his cousins, ao why should I talk about
him?"
Mr. Colby will remain in Portland for
several days.
Fund for Miss Loubet.
There were more contributions to the
fund to move Miss Loubet from the hos
pital here to the French hospital in San
Francisco received In the office of The
Oregonlan yesterday. Each day brings
to those more fortunate than herself re
flections on what they would wish for a
relative of theirs who had her back
broken in a fire In Paris and these
amounts inclosed in letters of sympathy
were forthcoming.
Tho contributions arriving yesterday
were: Coin. S. W. S.. DO cents; cash. "53;
cash, 51: C. K. 51. and cash 51. making a
total for the day of 56.00. This amount
added to what has been received -in the
past makes a grand total of 55J9.09. One
thousand dollars is what is needed, so
those who hear of this for the first time
need hot feel that they will be oversub
scribing the amount necessary.

Bruin Wants to Arrest the
Former Special Policeman.
FITZGERALD IS OPPOSED

Petty Offenders Before Judge
Cameron In the Munic
ipal Couru
A inspector of police. Tatrlck Bruin
yesterday morning called upon Deputy
City Attorney Fitzgerald and requested
warrants for the arreft of former special
policemen who are still holding positions
on their old beats In the capacity of night
watchmen. In answer to a question, Mr.
Bruin stated that he wished to .prosecute
these men under the section of the ordi
nance which prohibits persons from wear
ing portions of the adopted uniform of
the police department.
After holding a consultation with the in
spector. Mr. Fitzgerald decided that he
could not well take up nuch prosecution,
and said he did not at this time wish to
consider the matter. The warrants were
not granted.
As his reason for wishing to institute
prosecutions against the former special
policemen. Inspector Bruin said that he
feared they might commit some overt act.
and that in the aftermath the city's offi
cers would be held accountable, especial
ly by the public, since the uniform capes
worn by all were Identical.
Mr. Fitzgerald afterward stated, in an
Interview, that he hardly believed tho for
mer special policemen would involve the
city in any trouble, and gave it as his
opinion that there were several of them
Vho would be a great credit to the regu
lar police force.
In police circles. Inspector Bruin's at
tempt to wcure warrants for the arrest
of the former specials is regarded as the
pulse of Mayor Lane beating through his
right-hand man, and as but another ef
fort to drive from their positions the men
who held the special badges of authority
under tho "Williams regime, to make room
for new one? who have been appointed
under this administration.
"1 never intond. to take another drink
until I'm 21 years old," said Seth Robin
son to Judge Cameron, as -he stood before
the court yesterday morning on a charge
of frequenting a. saloon.
"When you were before me yesterday, I
took special care to Inform you that you
must remain out of saloons, as you would
not only make trouble for yourself, but
for others as well," said Judge Cameron.
"When you were released by me at that
time, you promised to obey my order, but
you went straight to a saloon and took a
drink. Now you have yourself in trouble
and the saloonkeeper too. Tou will have
to serve ten days this time."
Toung Robinson, when he left the court
room Monday, was followed by Acting
Detectives Kay and Jones, and was re
arrested within 15 minutes after his re
lease for entering Pat Douglas saloon
and drinking beer. The proprietor was
also taken into custody for selling liquor
to a minor. He will be tried later.
A second "milky way" was established
at Twelfth and Alder streets yesterday
morning at an early hour by H. A. Pad
dock, who drove his dairy wagon over
the asphalt, with small streams trickling
through the cracks and leaking to the
pavement.
Policeman Hirsch came along" and
arrested Paddock, and in court Judge
Cameron, after hearing the evidence.
decided to give the young man an op-
portunlty to mend his ways, and sen
tence was suspended.

cause he forgot to throw out the

when he alighted, and left his team
standing unhitched. He was arrested
by Policeman Peterson, and when
Judge Cameron asked him If he knew
the law. he said he did. The court said
there was no excuse for such an act,
and Imposed the penalty. -
Inspector of Police Bruin was per
haps, the most intereste'd spectator in
the courtroom when the cases of Wong
Jim and Long Sing, charged with hav
ing lottery tickets in their possession,
were being heard. He entered Just as
the proceedings began, and watched
the movements carefully throughout.
Both Chinese were arrested in a raid
made by Policeman E. Burke on a
"Joint" at S2 Second street, Monday
evening. The officer's story showed
that he swooped down on the place
and operated so quickly that the wily
Celestials were unable to escape or to
cover up their paraphernalia before he
had placed them under arrest and con
fiscated everything connected with the
lottery.
Long Sing entered a plea of guilty,
and was fined 520. Wong Jim contest
ed the case, saying he was not guilty,
but his contentious were aged, and he
was fined 510. Long" Sing was the
keeper of the place, and therefore re
ceived a heavier fine.
"I heard a noise, and went Into the
store to buy a cigar," explained "Wong
Jim, when he took the stand In his
own defense.
"Ah! every time you hear a noise,
you go into a. store and buy a cigar, do
your' replied Deputy City Attorney
'Fitzgerald. "That kind of story Is too
thin, Wong, and will not go In this court."
George C- Graber. driver for the
Jones Market. Fourth and Morrison
streets, was arrested by Policeman
Sloan for driving through the streets
without having a proper cover for his
wagon. The arrest and prosecution
are under the health ordinance, which
Is to he enforced for the protection of
the public.
Graber had a large load of meat, and
no cover for his wagon. Dust and filth
were accumulating on the meat. The
case was continued until today, at
which time the court ordered that Po
liceman Sloan have the manager of
the market In court to tell why he
permitted one of his wagons to go un
covered. Al Close, keeper of the Totem sa
loon, at West Park and Morrison
streets, characterized by Acting' De
tectives Kay and Jones as one of the
worst dives In Portland, is under ar
.rest for permitting women of evil
name to congregate In his establish
ment. His case will be heard at a later
date.
The Totem has long been under sus
picion by the police, and recently Act
ing Chief Gritzmacher Instructed Kay
and Jones to keep a strict watch on
the place. It required but a short time
for the officers to see sufficient to war
