shocked, and Mrs. Liverson'a condition
Is serious. The aged couple are inmates

were taking their usual afternoon stroll.
As they approached the streetcar tracks
they did not notice the danger, and were
struck before they could Jump from the

tarium by Mounted Policeman Gustafson

under care of a physician. Their extreme
age makes their condition more serious.

AGED VICTIM MAY DIE
Joseph McVittle Held for Brutally
Beating Hamilton Knott.
Hamilton Knott, 60 years of age, is dy
ing at his home, 314 East Seventh street,
from a clot of blood on the brain, the re
sult of a fracture of the skull, and Jo
seph MoVlttie, aged 21 years, occupies a
City Jail cell, charged with assault and
battery on the old man. In the event of
the tatter's death it Is probable that a
manslaughter charge will be filed. It is
the belief of the police that the prisoner
inflicted the wounds at the barns of the
Olson Transfer Company in a fight on
the morning of May 23.
Both men were employed in the Olson
barn. According to information obtained
by Acting Detective Price. McVlttle flew
into a rage because Knott told him how
to harness a horse. McVlttle is said to
have applied a vile epithet to Knott, who
resented it, and the fight followed.
Knott sustained a fracture of the skull
and a blood clot later formed on his
brain. McVlttle declares he merely
slapped the old man's face with the open
hand, and denies beating him.
Dr. Arthur H. Johnson has been attend
ing Knott. Last night he gave' it as his
opinion that Knott could not live long.
Ipputy restrict Attorney Adams was
notified and hurried to police headquar
ters, where he held a consultation with
McVlttle. In the meantime Policeman
"West was sent to ascertain Knott' a con
dition. It was found he was so low at
10 o'clock that he could not talk, and no
statement was obtained from him.
McVlttle was locked up at first with
ball fixed at 50, but when it became ap
parent that Knott could not live no ball
was allowed. The prisoner is Held pend
ing the action of the District Attorney.
AUCTION SYSTEM TESTED
J. Whyte Evans Sells Real Estate
Under Hammer.
Portland's first public auction sale of
real estate was held in the main cor
ridor of the Chamber of Commerce yes
terday. At the morning sale there was a
good-sized crowd in attendance but J.
Whyte Evans, who held the sale, said
he made a mistake in adjourning for
lunch as the afternoon, attendance fell
off considerably.
For the first efTort the total sales,
amounting to were. " considered
satisfactory by the promoter of this in
novation. No. 1 of the catalogue, the
Washington apartment-bouse at 6S9-695
Northrup street, was knocked down at
$39,000. though the catalogue stated tbat
the property was built upon last October
at a cost of J45.000 and that the lot Is
worth J7000. A misunderstanding between
Evans and the purchaser as to the
amount of cash down required, resulted
in having the sale held up, but it was said
after the sale that in all probability that
matter could be adjusted amicably.
Several pieces were withdrawn on ac
count of the low offers made.

STREET CAR UNCLES BOY
FATE HAN WAY CRUSHED TO
DEATH IX CROSSING STREET.
Catastrophe Too Sudden to Avert,
Declares Motornian, and Fender
Fails to Work.
Faye Hanway, a lad 17 years of age,
was run, over and Instantly killed by car
No. 357 of the Waverly-Woodstock division
of the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company's lines; on Clinton street, near
East Nineteenth, at 9:37 o'clock last night
The accident seems to have been the re
sult of recklessness or daring on the part
of the victihi. Prom the story of S. S.
Williamson, who was running the car,
and three lads, Elton and Harry Tro
gan and Roy Funk, companions of Han
way, the latter had run tn front of car
No. 357. He stepped in front of an out
bound car and quickly dodged back, when
he was struck by the inbound car.
According to the story told Coroner Fin
ley by the companions of Hanway, the
young man was chatting pleasantly and
had not mentioned any intended visit to
town, when suddenly he said, "Here
comes my car," and rushed Into the
street.
His companions watched him and saw
htm pass safely in front of the approach
ing car, but almost at the same Instant
they were horrified to see him attempt to
get back the way he had come. They
saw him knocked down and dragged about
so reet before the car could be stopped.
The car fender failed in the emergency.
although Motorman Williamson says he
did not have time to bring the appliance
into action, as Hanway jumped directly
in front of the car.
The young man lived with his parents
at East Twentieth and Powell streets, and

Renewed interest is being taken in .the
Forestry building display. The Rose So
ciety Is bending every effort to make that
display only equalled by the floral
parades, and in fact some enthusiasts
believe tbat the show on the fair ground
will take first place as an attraction.

use of their first floor for an additional
display.
Among the features under consideration
for Thursday evening, June 20, Is a grand
