ELEGTIOfl BETS - HELD UP
STAKEHOLDERS REFUSE TO PAY
WAGERS OX SHRIEVALTY.
Await Issuance or Election Certifi
cate Chamberlain's Backers
More Fortunate.
' Sportively Inclined citizens who wagered
their money on the Shrievalty race be
tween Bob Stevens and Sheriff Tom Word
will have to wait many days before they
set their money. The eyelash finish be
tween the two candidates, notwithstand
ing the fact that Stevens has been Issued
a certificate of election, has left the mat
tor of the settlement of the pets In doubt,
because Sheriff Word, through his attor-
, ncy, has caused to be started contest
proceedings, and will carry the matter
into the courts. This fact will cause the
stakeholders to refrain from settling the
bets until the court before whom the
contest is to be tried orders a duly certi
fied certiorate of election to be issued.
' If yord commences contest proceedings
,atid a, long-drawn-out legal fight begins,
the chances are that the money staked
tin the outcome "will be tied up for months.
On such a case, it would be no more than
'right for stakeholders to declare all bets
off and return the money intrusted to
:them. The stakeholder is the referee of
the situation, and he has the right to
.declare the bets off, provided It Is agree
able to all parties concerned.
Jn all. there was between J10.000 and
ilo.000 wagered on the Shrievalty fight.
This money was placed in the hands of
various stakeholders. Yesterday many
;men who had wagered on Stevens were
ground trying to collect. There was also
k rush of men who had bet on Word,
-who gave orders to withhold payment of
their money until after the contest had
bcen officially settled. Ed Schiller, who
holds between $7000 and J8000, was besieged
yesterday to pay bets on Stevens. He
lefused to turn over the money, and will
continue to hold it until the matter is
fettled beyond dispute.
Those who bet on the race for Gov
ernor will get their money at once. Gov
ernor Chamberlain's majority is so large
that it leaves no doubt as to the outcome,
and the bets will .be paid just as soon
is the official announcement of his elec
tion Is given out. The amount of money
wagered on the Gubernatorial race be
tween Chamberlain and Withycombe was
unall compared with that bet on Word
jind Stevens. In some cases those who
have bet on Withycombe have conceded
the election of Chamberlain, and have
paid over the money.
Bets on Word and Stevens, however,
must be held back either until the County
Clerk has decided who has won. or the
case has been settled by the courts.

Love in a Laundry Ends in Police
Court Work of the
Drag (.:
Residents of Irvington. near the race
track, had reason to believe for a time
yesterday morning that an invading army
was firing on the town from the woods
nearby. Rifles kept cracking with alarm
ing frequency, and now and then a savage
hissing in the air told of the flight of
some tiny leaden mesenger of death.
The police were notified, and Patrolman
Duffy responded to the alarm. Tracing
the shooting to its origin, he found two
Jockeys, Patrick Kneeland and John
Dumke. engaged in target practice near
the racetrack. The target was stopping
only a few of the bullets. . and fearing:
that pedestrians might usurp the target's
place, the officer took the marksmen to
the Police Station. They were arraigned
before Judge Cameron and fined So each
for shooting inside the city limits.
Stella Kenton and Nellie Reid used to
be the very best of friends. That was
before .Billy Bartness came upon the
scene. When Bartness took charge of
the tubs at the Union Laundry, Stella
began to look coyly from the ironing
board and a close friendship soon sprang
up between them.
Then Billy arose to dazzling fame. He
became foreman of the laundry- Stella
was now in a place of Influence and open
ly declared so. it is said.. One day not
long ago Nellie was "fired." She says
she doesn't know why. but as she went
out her erstwhile friend. Stella, was on
hand to say that it was she who got
Nellie discharged, and that a little in
fluence was a fine thing to have. This
remark led to others. Billy came on the
scene and gave his impressions. Conse
quently Nellie went away with wounded
feelings, and secured a warrant against
Stella and Billy, charging them with us
ing abusive language as follows: ' !
(&!."
The case was called in Police Court
yesterday morning, but was not prose
cuted, as Stella and Nellie bad kissed and
made up overnight.
George Foley, the laborer who assaulted
one of his friends with a knife, severely
injuring him, several days ago, was ar
raigned before Judge Cameron in the'
Municipal Court yesterday. He pleaded
not guilty to a charge of assault with 4
dangerous weapon, and was held to the
grand jury. Being unable to put up bail
he went to the County Jail. Ed Fogarty.
his victim, is still confined to the hos
pital. Henry Smith, 6ia Savier street, notifjed
the police yesterday forenoon that his
daughter. Lizzie. 17 years old, had left
home because she was reprimanded for
staying out late of nights. She left with
Freda Grishaw, 14 years old. The police
were requested to keep a lookout for the
girls.
Desertions continue from the warships
now in harbor. Yesterday four more re
cruits to the ranVj of the missing were
reported.' One of these was Harry Robert
Bauley. shipwright. The other was the
Japanese mess boy. The desertions were
reported to the police.
F. C. Bennett, found guilty of stealing
lead pipe from an East Side residence,
was given a heavy sentence on a petty
larceny charge In the Municipal Court
yesterday forenoon. When the evidence
showed the fellow's guilt conclusively, the
court suggested that he was not entitled
to leniency, and sentenced him to a year
in the County Jail.

ST. HELENS, Or., June 6. (Special.
A. D. Pearce. convicted of assault and
battery upon the person of W. C. Fischer,
was sentenced by Judge McBride to one
year in Jail, the- sentence to be nerved in
the County Jail of Multnomah County.
Judge McBride, in passing sentence, said
that he could find no mitigation in the
fact that the defendant was a family
man. or that Mr. Fischer adopted meth
ods that to some might appear injudi
cious. Fischer was clearly within his
rights as a citizen, and the Jury' had
found that the" worst form of assault and
battery known to the law had been com
mitted. Pearce was also sentenced to pay the
costs. Judge McBride stated that ' the
laws must be enforced in Rainier, as
elsewhere, and intimated that he will see
that this is done.

PARK CONCERTS NEXT.
Charles L. Brown Starts Out Today
Collecting Subscriptions.
At last the dove of peace has alighted
among the warring band factions in this
city, and the chances now are that Port
land will enjoy anywhere from 33 to 50
band concerts in the parks this Summer,
if the citizens will raise something like
J5000 for the band fund, in addition to
the $1300 appropriated by the Board of
Park Commissioners. By the authority
of this board. Charles L. Brown, one
of the three bandmasters tne others be
ing A. DeCaprio and W. E. McElroy will
start work today calling on business men
and others for subscriptions.
If the deal goes through, the park con
certs will begin Sunday afternoon, July
1. at the City Park. Throughout , the
season the Sunday afternoon concerts will
take place at the City Park, and the
concerts on week day evenings at the
Plaza block in front of the Multnomah
County courthouse and in Hawthorne and
Holladay Parks on the East Side.
It has been calculated that these con
certs will cost from J650O to J7000, all told,
mostly in musicians' salaries. Although
Mr. Brown is authorized as manager to
call on the community for subscriptions
amounting to $5000 or so. he is only one
of the conductors in the series of con
certs, the two conductors alternating
with him being Mr. DeCaprio and Mr.
McElroy. These three are experienced
J and capable musicians, well up in their
work, and can be trusted to train and
organize a band to be known as the
Portland Park Band that will be a credit
to the. city and also furnish recreation
and instruction to thousands of people
who will flock to the different parks dur
ing the warm Summer weather.
It is believed that the money for tne
band fund can be raised. There have
been several calls in this city lately for
the purposes of benevolence, but surely
there are enough donors left to give sub
stantial subscriptions to ensure Summer
concerts for the people.
PLANS FOR PIONEER DAY
Large Attendnace of Old-Timers Ex
pected nt Reunion June 1 1.
Next Thursday, June 14, is Pioneer
day. and from the inquiries which
George Himes, secretary of the Pio
neer Association, is. receiving at head
quarters In the Historical Society
rooms, it is believed that the attend
ance will be large. Not so many are
expected to be present as were here
last year, however, us the Exposition
then brought many who might not
have attended otherwise. There were
1402 present last June. Their average
age was 61 years and one month. More
than 3-1 of these pioneers have died
during the' past year.
The badges for 1906 are now ready,
and Mr. Himes urges all who are en
titled to them to call at the Historical
Society at once. Mrs. C. M. Cartwright,
chairman of the Women's Auxiliary,
is pushing arrangements for the ban
quet with great zeal, and has called
a meetinsr at her' residence. 21 o Seventh
street. this afternoon at 2 o'clock,
when all committees are expected to
report.
CARMEN HELD TO BLAME
Coroner's Jury Returns Verdict in
Case of E. G. Luxon.
That E. G. Luxon. the-young man who
was crushed to death under an "S" car
at the corner of Gibbs and Corbett streets
late Tuesday ngiht. met his death through
the negligence of the motorman, G. Sten
wlg. and the conductor. -W. Dean, was the
verdict returned yesterday by the Cor
oner's jury, which Investigated the case.
The car. No. 104. was on its last trip
to the city, and while rounding the sharp
curve at the corner. leaped from the rails
and hurled itself on its side against the
curbstone. The force of its momentum
must have been great to overturn the
heavy car, the jury held, establishing the
fact that the car was traveling at a high
speed. There is a heavy grade on Corbett
street, and the carmen have Instructions
to run cars slowly around the curve,
which is quite sharp.
Luxon was the only passenger on the
car, and was standing on the front plat
form when the accident occurred. He
jumped in the wrong direction when the
car went off the track, and was caught
and crushed by It when it turned over.
In returning Its verdict the Coroner's
jury held that although both the motor
man and conductor were negligent in run
ning the car at such high speed, they
could not be responsible for Luxon's
death, as their negligence was not crim
inal and they had 110 criminal Intent.
