DOLE FLEES Enriched by Three Thousand Dollars. CREDITORS THE SUFFERERS A'lcc-Prcsldcnt of American Hos pital Association Sells Stock Which He Had Not Paid For Suddenly Departs. Several local persons arc extremely anx Sous to locate Fred S. Dole and wife.' a couple who succeeded in working a clever scheme which muted them close -to J3000 In the short .space of four months. Dole arrived in Portland about Decem ber 1, and. by representing himself as a nephew of ex-Governor Dole, of Hawaii. Rnd also as a relative of John D. Rocke feller, gained the good graces of some well-to-do cltirens. which carried with it an open sesame to the Commercial Club and other kindred local organizations, and lifter enjoying an excellent living and splendid apartments, he suddenly. depart ed, leaving several unpaid bills in addi tion to having borrowed various sums of money, and negotiated some. $3000 on stock in a highly reputable enterprise, the latter being secured through misrepresentation. Bole .Made Vice-President. Shortly after arriving in thlsVIty Dole became connected with the American 'Hos pital Association.-which has offices in the Columbia Butlding,'and which .was organ ized in this city by a man named Jewell, who had promoted similar organizations Bt San Francisco. Los Angeles and Seattle. 3ewell. who acted as president of the con cern. Installed Dole as vice-president and turned over to him 5000 shares of stock, which was to have been paid for upon the young man receiving an inheritance from an aunt who died about that time. Dole worked faithfully in the interests of the association for some two months, or up to the time when the officials of the organi zation and others to whom he was In debted for various sums began to .press him for payment. Creditors Press Him. For a short time he held back his cred itors with tales of delay In settlement of the inheritance, and exhibited letters pur porting to come from lawyers of the es tate, but finally, hts business connections rommenccd to grow oversusplclous, and he immediately prepared to depart. Dole visited Max G. Cohen and from him is raid to have negotiated $3000 on the 500 hares of stock he possessed in the hos pital association, and the money was paid him at the First Xatloaal Bank. After icuring this sum. be west to Secretary T. tv. Martlndale, of the American Hos pital Association, and on the supposition that be had received a long-distance tele phone message from his uncle, the ex Governor of Hawaii, represented to be In San Francisco, to the effect that if he would come to the Bay City a sum suffi cient to liquidate bis indebtedness in Port land would be forthcoming, the secretary advanced Dole another 3100. which made a total of $300 adranced by Martlndale. Dle. on receiving this money, loft Port land, accompanied by his wife. In the meantime several local individuals and business Arms are especially anxious to locate the couple. Description of Dole. Dole is described as being a man of about 5 feet 9 Incites In height, weight about 145 pounds, light brown Jialr and eyes, very thin and cadaverous in appear ance: is smooth shaven, hollow cheeks, long, bony fingers, is a smooth talker, and claims to hall from Los Angeles. His wife is a well-developed woman of r. feet 7 Inclicj. and weighs about 173 pounds. She has dark hair, blue eyes and full rosy checks, and is about SO years of ape. and claims New York City as her home. Dole was Introduced to the Commercial Club by JohnA. Payne, who for a time was inclined to believe In the fellow, but was among the first to become suspicious, and Is one of the anxious persons who de sire the apprehension of the swindler, who secured $350 as a loan from Payne, which has not yet been repaid.

NEWELL SUCCESSOR Jackson County First In Fruit Grow ing, Declares the Retiring Head or the 'Board at Its . Annual Meeting. E. I Smith, who for six years past has been at the head of the Board, tendered his resignation as president of the State Board of Horticulture, at the semiannual meeting held yesterday morning in the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Smith retires from tho active head of the organization in order to give hts entire attention to his campaign for nomination for United States Senator. The meeting was largely attended by those interested In horticul ture In Oregon. Genuine regret was ex pressed at Mr. Smith's retirement. Sends In Resignation. Mr. Smith scat In his rcslgnationto the society some time ago. but action was delayed until yesterday. President Smith presided over the meeting until after he had read his report: then he surrendered the chair to Commissioner Wilbur K. Newell, of Washington County. Ex-Commissioner James H. Reld. of Multnomah County, whea Mr. Newell was made presi dent, became" Commissioner for the First district, which bad been held by Mr. NcwelL Mr. Smith has devoted a greater oart of his loruc residence in Oregon to horticulture. Mr. Smith's report was lis tened to with Interest and It was plainly aaoarent that-the speaker when he Beared the end of his report was visibly touched. Report ef President Smith. After dwelling upon the Importance of the fruit inspectors' to the state, he oc casioned considerable surprise when he stated that Jacksea County was the lad Ing fruit county la the state. This state ment, coming from the retiring preaideat of the society, will be a source of great satisfaction to the fruitgrowers' of Jack-' son County. In his last report to the hor ticulturists Preaideat Smith said: I am jTXtirieJ to ttata Uutt the fcorti caltarr interests at Ore-gaa were sever 1b a zsore promUtB-c ceedltle thaa at yreaeet.

The beneficial results which have fol lowed the appointment of the county fruit Inspectors are too well known to require fur ther mention here. Our State Horticultural Society has blossomed Into new life and large auxiliary societies have been organized in different portions of the state. Planting: Trees in Valley. In the Willamette Valley a campaign of reclamation of old orchards Is being vigor ously waged and an Increased planting of proung trees over previous years Is reported. In ail tne principal iruugTowing; aecuons oi the state a vast area "of young orchards will coma Into fruit bearing within the next three or four years. In Hood River alone there are about 360O acres of such orchards all of which are yellow Newtowns and Splt zenberrs. estimated to produce-'three years later -(00,000 boxes of fancy fruit. Jackson County, however. Is now and likely to remain the leading fruit county of Oregon. It Is first In apples, first In peaches, first tn pears, and I believe first In crapes. Its orchards are large, well-kept and Its growers are tip to date In all that relates to their Industry. Immense planting of young trees has been going on for several years past. Josepblno County In a. less degree pro duces most excellent trult. Douglas County has almost limitless possibilities for fruit growing and her prone orchards are among the best in the state. East of the Cascades. Union. Umatilla and Wasco Counties must be classed among the great fruitgrowing' counties of the state. Draw Up Farewell Resolutions. After the report was read Commission ers A. H. Carton. Charles A. Park and Secretary Lamberson were appointed a committee by President Newell to draw up farewell resolutions to Mr. Smith. The. appreciation of Mr. smith s services to the State Board of Horticulture and as preaideat follow: Whereas, The Hon. E. L. Smith, of Hood River.

Question 3Iay Have to Be Taken to the Courts for a legal Adjudication. In case It should be decreed that the People's. Market Association is not enti tled to occupy block 132. Second and Third. Clay and Market streets, and that the act of Mayor Lane In vetoing the ordinance granting the association certain privileges on the block was sustained by the Coun cil at its last meeting. It Is considered by many that an injustice ha3 been done the lessees, and the municipality Is accused of a failure to keep faith. The vote on the question ,of passing the ordinance over executive disapproval stood 10 In favor to 3 against, and the minutes of the Council proceedings indicate that the Mayor himself declared the ordinance passed. Since then he has concluded that the proposed ordinance was merely the. modification of a franchise, and that 12 votes were therelore necessary to pass the measure over his head. There is a difference of opinion on this subject, and the matter may have to be taken to the courts for adjudication. In the meantime it is claimed by Audi tor Devlin and others that the feature of Injustice exists In the fact that when tne original franchise was granted if it was a franchise there was a verbal pledge from city officials that laws would be adopted and enforced compelling all the Italian vegetable peddlers to keep away from the two plaza blocks, and patronize the city market block, whose lessees pay the city $100 a month rental for the privi lege of conducting a market square, it being stipulated that the trade of the truck gardeners should be part of the consideration. Devlin says that the orlginalf ranchlse, so-called, was adopted 23 years ago, and at no time up to within the past eight months have the plaza blocks been kept free of peddlers and others who came intc the city with anything to sell. On the contrary, the municipality has been out the expense of cleaning up after them and employing a policeman especially tc look after them. It Is alleged also that the lessees of the city market block have complied with all the requirements of their ordinance with respect to construction of sheds, concrete sidewalks surrounding the square, and bi tuminous floors inside, besides sanitary drains -connecting the establishment with the city sewers. In this connection they have expended considerable money, and sought to secure a modification of the terms of the original ordinance In the matter of erecting a main market build ing, the Mayor vetoing the measure on the ground that they had failed properly to observe the conditions of their agree ment with the city.
