ETO HID CITY
OF IIS GARBAGE
New York's Streets Piled High
With Refuse; Collectors
Are On Strike.
GRAVE PERIL TO HEALTH
Authorities Unable to Induce Men to
Take Place of Strikers Unless
I Help Arrives Epidemic
Is Threatened.
I
Ji vy HjrtlV, June au. cw win J
is experiencing an impressive demon
stration as to what extent the comfort
of the millions is dependent upon the
handful, comparatively, of citizens or
iainarily engaged in collecting garbage
and delivering ice. Two thousand garbage
Collectors and an equal number of ice
wagon drivers are on strike, and the
city is in peril of an epidemic of dis
ease. The garbage situation is the most
serious, and unless speedily remedied,
the 'possibilities of evil are startling.
The health department, which, upon
direction of Mayor McClellan, assumed
responsibility when the stroet-clei-n-Sng
department proved unequal to the
emergency, is exhausting its almost
unlimited resources, but tonight, the
best that Dr. Darlington could promise
was that three hundred men would
be at work tomorrow morning. Such
a force will make little, headway, as
765 carts are required to remove .each
day's accumulation, and the work is
six days behind.
The great obstacle encountered by the
department is the deep-rooted sentiment
among men who work for wages that one
may not honorably take the place of a
striker. Three dollars a day, board and
permanent employment is offered, but
that iaa nttT-iwtH fav V.ffciTtn tn Bf't
men from other cities have now been
made, and tomorrow recruits are prom
ised from Philadelphia.
May Draft Private Citizens.
The health department took hold late
Friday, and since has used its police
powers vigorously and its emergency fund
Df 85,000 without stint, but so far has
been unable to meet conditions ef
fectually. The officials of the health board Inti
mated that private citizens would be
Soing a public duty if they became for
the time garbage collectors. The only
alternative appears to be a compromise
with the strikers. Though the Mayor has
declared that the law does not permit
dealings with civil service employes who
are on strike, and the street-cleaning de
partment yesterday refused to formally
. . i . 1 .! ,-, .: n man it
ell ici to.ui lho uciiianua u. ....-., ...
was Intimated tonight that a settlement
might be arranged legally.
A conference between Commissioner
Craven of the Street Tcleanlng Department
and a committee representing the garbage-drivers
will be held tomorrow. The
men hold to their original demands, the
most Important of which are:-
First. That 48 hours constitute a Trk'i
work, and that overtime' be paid at the xtt
. ox K ecute per hour. - - . .- -
Second. That no lines be imposed without
the- opportunity for a hearing-.
Third. That a system of suspension be prac
ticed Instead of fines.
Situation Is Growing Worse.
Today the situation grew hourly worse.
What work was done was In the vicinity
of Chinatown, on the East Side. Mean
time the waste accumulated In other
streets. In places refuse was piled high
and elsewhere strewn from curb to curb.
Unable to do better, the health squads
scattered disinfectants through miles of
highways, hoping to hold in check death
bearing germs.
Lower temperatures had a beneficial ef
fect, though a most disagreeable stench
found its way into many homes and into
the Bast Side hospitals.
Acting Sanitary Inspector Bensel con
tracted with a Philadelphia employment
agency lor 1500 men. Of these 300 were
to have arrived at noon today, but did
. not. Late tonight word was received
from Philadelphia that 100 laborers would
be on hand for work at daybreak to
morrow. These, with the 200 mei Com
missioner Craven expects to have on
' hand, including the 160 who remained at
V work when the others quit, will make up
,' a working force of 300 if the plans do
iot miscarry.
Possibilities of Great Peril.
Mayor McClellan remained at his office
all day. in frequent consultation with
Chief Health Officer Darlington and Br.
Bensel, the sanitary chief.
Tonight Dr. Darlington said:
"I do not believe there is any Im
mediate danger of an epidemic, but the
situation is very grave, and presents the
possibilities of an imminent peril."
EFFORT TO PRY OFF LIO
FRED MERRIIiI ALLOWS GUESTS
TO BRING BEER TO RESORT.
Proprietor of Twelve-Mile House
Arrested Point Will Be De
cided in Court Today.
Sheriff Stevens' third trip around the
bristling and highly moral walls of
"dry" Multnomah County yesterday in
search of battle-scarred "booze-flght-ers"
was a successful journey. Two
- weeks ago the Sheriff flitted about
the circuit of well-springs of liquid
. Joy and found the lid working over
Vlt, 8t SundRy h again took his
bubble buggy In hand and sped from
.Llnnton to Troutdale and all was well
there were no attempts at lawbreaking
visible. B
; But yesterday the Sheriff discovered
what looked to him like a well-formed
i plan to punch holeB in Multnomah's
; moral cover, and as a result ex-Coun-!
cilman Fred T. Merrill, proprietor of
j the Twelve-Mile House, must appear
j in court this morning to answer to a
charge of violating the Sunday-closing-law.
Sheriff Stevens was making his usual
: rounds of the country towns where
there are saloons or roadhouses. He
: visited Llnnton, St, Johns. Claremont
:; Tavern, Troutdale and Gresham, but
; aside from lemonade and soft drinks,
no wet goods were being sold. But
! about 6 o'clock In the afternoon he
, drove up to the Twelve-Mile Home and
! found a party of Portland people there
J. Just finishing several bottles of beer.
Stevens asked for explanations, and the
members of the party Insisted they had
taken the beer with them from town.
Stevens then hunted up Merrill, and
the latter denied having sold any beer
to the party, and swore bjr all that
fJOi'J
was good an holy that the party had
the beer with them when they came,
and only wanted a cool place to- drink
It.
Merrill In explaining the matter fur
therf declared that he had consulted the
District Attorney on ths point, and that
Mr. Manning had assured him that there
was nothing in the statute which would
forbid people from drinking their own
beer at a tavern. To put the matter to
a test. Sheriff Stevens told Merrill to ap
pear . in court this morning, and have
the matter settled. Stevens also notified
the District Attorney's office of what
he had done, thereby putting the onus
on Mr. Manning's shoulders.
Last night Sheriff Stevens stated that
the disposition or settlement of this point
meant a great deal. He said:
"If the District Attorney holds that
this Is a violation of the Sunday closing
law, and forbids Inn-keepers from allow
ing people to even drink their own beer
at such places, well and good. I can
then keep the lid on throughout .the
county. But if Mr. Manning decides that
the road-houses are to be allowed to
let their guests bring intoxicating liquors
out to such places and drink with im
punity, just so long as the liquor is not
brought on the premises, I and my whole
office force will be utterly helpless to
enforce the law.
In order to be sure that the law were
not being violated 1 would, in that case,
have to do one of two things. I would
have to take stock of liquor at every
road-house and saloon in the county,
outside of Portland, for there can be no
discrimination In favor of the taverns
in this matter, every Sunday morning.
Or else I would have to station a deputy
at each saloon and road-house to see
that the people who came there really
brought their own liquor with them. Of
course, either of these alternatives would
entail- such an enormous expense that it
is ridiculous to consider them for an in
stant." Merrill's plea that his guests had a
right under the law to drink their own
liquor on his premises is a' novel one,
and raises the question for the first time,
whether that act can be construed as a
violation of the law. It Is to all intents
and purposes an out-and-out attempt to
loosen up the lid, without making the
attempt too glaring to brand it as law
breaking. (
The only arrest for Sunday closing
violation In Portland yesterday, was that
of Sam Waffier, proprietor of the Uncle
Sam Hotel In the North End. Two
thirsty mortals and the proprietors were
found by the police drinking beer in' one
of the rooms of the hotel. Waffier's
plea was that It was his own "private
stock" and that he had Just Invited his
friends to have a drink with him. Waf
fier was arrested and charged with giv
ing away liquor on Sunday.
T
BOISE POLICE BRING SXEAK
THIEP TO LIGHT.
Girls' Suspicions Point to Dangerous
Man, Who Turns Out to Be
Socialist and Thief.
BOISE, Idaho, June 30. (Special.)
Activity of the police In watching sus
pected characters has had one result
discovery that the Janitor of the Mode
Store has been robbing the place. The
man, a Swiss, named August Schadd, Is
a Socialist, and has been associating
with some rather suspicious characters
here, the police keeping a watch on him.
A few days ago a young woman who
clerks in the Greenhouse Grocery came
to Chief Francis with a story that a
man had come in asking to have a cer
tain list of things he wanted copied.
Among those things were sulphuric acid.
chloride of potash and sugar, the in
gredients used in preparing the deto
nator for the bombs used by Harry Or
chard. The girl became suspicious and
reported the matter to the police. From
her description Francis concluded that
the man was Schadd. He took the
girl out on - the street and she pointed
out Schadd as the man. Acting on this
information the chief got out a search
warrant yesterday, and made seach of
the man's house for bomb materials.
In place of finding such materials, he
found stacks of fine goods that had evi
dently been stolen. Schadd had been
employed as Janitor of the Modt. Store,
and Francis reported the matter to
Henry Falk, the proprietor.. The latter
had missed no goods, but these were rec
ognized as his. Today further search of
the Schadd house revealed other plun
der, the whole inventorying at cost price
the sum of 911.65. The lot Included silks
and laces, hats and plumes, suits, and
many other valuable kinds of goods.
Though Schadd had not been suspected
of stealing, he had been discharged some
time "ago. It turned out that Schadd
could not read or write. When he went
to the girl to have a list copied he was
seeking to get a reclpt for sore throat
filled, and pointed out the wrong place
in the book. Schadd made a clean breast
of the robbery, saying he was in the
habit of carrying goods home with him
after finishing his work.

Washington Sunday - Closing
Law Enforced With Merci
less Impartiality.
CITY DRIER THAN SAHARA
Only Undertaking Establishments,
Livery Stables, Restaurants and
Drugstores Open Ice Cream
and Soda Water Under Ban.
The only law broken In the garrison
town of Vancouver, all day yesterday,
was by a farmer from Yacolt, who had
driven into town with his buckboard in
the morning. He exceeded the speed limit
In trying to get cut after he heard the
lid was on. He was disappearing like
prunes at a boarding-house breakfast.
before the authorities were notified.
Portland ought to be ashamed of her
self. She does not know what lids are
or, what they are made for, and her offi
cials, county and city, do not know how
to sit on one or keep the leaks plugged
'up. Police Chief Grltzmacher, Sheriff
Stevens, District Attorney Manning and
Mayor Lane ought to take a Junketting
trip over to Vancouver next Sunday, for
after three successive trials at closing up
the town, the Portland lid looks like the
nozzle of a sprinkling can in compari
son with." the 6-inch armor-plate hatch
cover that Is clamped on in the Bar
racks town.
The Vancouver smsJl boy yesterday had
to lock himself up in the woodshed to
crack a peanut, and the private citizen
threw a picket guard around his house
while he turned the crank on his own
Ice-cream freezer in his own cellar. The
saloon-keepers got bo frightened be
fore noon that they called up Sheriff Sap
plngton and asked If they could leave
their beer signs up over Sunday, or
would they have to hide them in the
back yard till Monday morning?
Takes It Core and All.
When Vancouver takes her bite at the
apple of reform. It Is a cinch "there
hain't going to be no core." Stem, skin
and seed all go down with a gulp.
On two short hours notice Saturday
night the whole town was yanked bodily
out of the liquid zone. It hurdled the
soda-water belt and landed In the parched
brown fields of universal' drouth with a
dull thud. All records for rapid-transit
were broken, and the blow was struck bo
suddenly and unexpectedly that the
victims were taking the count before
they knew they had been hit and forgot
to lay in a supply of laughing water for
the restful Sabbath.
It was about 10 o'clock Saturday night
when City Attorney Stapleton, after a
conference with Mayor J. R. Harvey,
Chief of Police A. Bateman and Sheriff
W. P. Sappington affixed his John Han
cock to the Imperial Ukase. Sheriff Sap-.
.pington and Chief Bateman then .went
out to spread the glad tidings. Every
where they went they were as welcome
as the plague.
There are 82 saloons nd hotel bars In
Vancouver. The Sheriff visited 16 and
the Chief 16. It was the saddest 16 to 1
platform a politician ever ran on, and
after careful explanation of the order.
the officials departed by announcing glee
fully, "You 11 have to grin and bear it.
The people want It.
"You can make us bear It. but Til be
d d If you can make us grin,", was the
usual retort of the booze dispenser.
But In every instance he was a good
Willie, locked the door,, threw the key
out of the window and hung his apron
In the Icebox. Most of the bartenders
spent yesterday In their neighbors' cher
ry trees, eating unborn cocktails.
In most of the saloons the electric fans
had kept the temperature 'down, while
the authorities were breaking the news.
but it was 147 in the shade when they
called at the cigar stands, ice-cream par
lors, dairies, bakeries and butcher-shops.
The reception they got was about like
three months of mother-in-law when the
head of the family is trying to settle
down for a quiet Summer.
Altogether It was fun for the Sheriff
and the Chief. Heretofore, Vancouver,
being a wide-open town in the broadest
senso, the officials, for the most part,
are liberal in their views on questions
of civic morality, so- when the good peo
pie of Vancouver, and among them the
grocers, the ice-cream vendors, the bak
ers and the like, clamored for a closed
town, the authorities decided to enforce
the state law to the letter.
The merchants or shopkeepers of the
classes mentioned who had been in the
habit of keeping open Sunday, of
course, desired that only the saloons
should be closed; but they had failed
to read up on the law. So. after some
dickering and political Jockeying In
which, it is alleged, the liquor inter
ests were quite generally consulted,
the latter said they would stand for a
strict enforcement of the law or they
would fight to a finish. Then the blow
fell.
Makes But Four Exceptions. .
The law says specifically that only
four classes of establishments shall be
allowed to do business on Sunday.
They are undertaking parlors, livery
stables, eating-places and drugstores,
but drugstores must not sell anything
except on prescription, postage stamps
not included, and restaurants and ho
tels must' not serve drinks or cigars
with their meals. The hotels must
not serve their guests with drinks or
cigars In their rooms, nor will thry
be allowed to send out and buy Ice
cream for their dining-room patrons.
Hotels may serve ice cream If they
make it themselves, but no Ice cream
parlors may do business.
The candy merchants, the cigar deal
ers, the billiard parlors, the'theaters,
the merry-go-rounds, and the social
clubs howled like wolves when they
were told that they would be given a
"day off" on Sundays hereafter.
One man who had taken great Inter
est In citizens' mass meetings, and had
signed the "closed town" petition, is in
terested In a large confectionery store,
with a soda fountain. ' He also sells
cigars; peanuts and gum on the side.
He .had ordered 100 gallons of Ice
cream for the Sunday trade, and he
begged and pleaded with Chief Bate
man half a dozen times to be allowed
to keep open.
Y ou want the law enforced, and
you'll get It," was the Chief's answer.
All Social Clubs Closed.
. There are two or three social clubs
In Vancouver with bars in connection,
but they made no attempt to remain
Jopen.
Hagers Theater -was closed for the
first Sunday since It was built. The
big merry-go-round on Main street,
which has been reaping a harvest on
Sundays, was empty and silent- The
Sunday afternoon concert by the Four
teenth Infantry band In the park, which.
always attracts thousands, was a frost. ,
C
there being fewer than 100 people pres
ent. It Is hard to say whether the street
railway company lost anything or not
as a result of lidding up Vancouver.
There were hundreds of Vancouverites
who had failed to provide themselves
with any snake-bite remedies the night
before, but they had friends in Port
land who had a case, or a couple of
bottles, on ice, and so they went to
Portland. There were, on the other
hand, hundreds of Portlanders who
hadn't heard that Vancouver had be
come a desert In a night, and so they
sought It as the regular weekly oasis.
When they got to Vancouver, the only
wetness they could find was the back
water of the Columbia and a few lawn
sprinklers. How the order did hit the boys at the
Barracks: Had the commandant of
the post desired to mobilize the troops
stationed at Vancouver he could have
done It In three minutes by placing a
case of cool beer at the main gate of
the military reservation.
Loggers. lumber-Jacks, railroad con
struction gangs and gay young blades
from the surrounding rural regions,
who hadn't read the Sunday morning
papers, also got it where they were
thirsty. A man with a pint flask was
entitled to a Carnegie medal on the
spot. A quart bottle would have given
him the solid Clark County vote for
United States Senator.
Nobody seemed to know where the
people of Vancouver spent Sunday,
unless the vast majority of them
stayed at home and looked at the
funny pictures In the papers, for the
town was quiet as a cemetery.' The
streets were practically deserted, save
a few score or more of those unbeliev
ing souls who were looking for a crack
In a door big enough to crawl through
and put out the fires under their belts.
"The lid is on absolutely tight,"
sold Chief of Police Bateman, last
night. "There have been only two ar
rests for Intoxication, and these two
men brought their booze Into town with
them or had hang-overs from last
night. Not a single arrest was made
for violation of the state law which
we put Into effect. We don't do things
by halves over here. The Portland lid
Is no lid at all. You let your billiard
parlors keep open. You sell cigars,
you have Sunday theaters and other
places of amusement going full blast.
You sell candy, pop, soda water,- pea
nuts and all that. The law In Oregon
is just like' the Washington law, and
we are enforcing our statute. We are
going to let the people have a taste of
this sort of thing give them all they
want, and we are not going to make
fish of one and flesh of another.
"Portland people alone spend J3000 or
4000 each Sunday here of late. They
haven't spent a cent here today, so far
as we can see, and the establishments
that have been running on Sundays be
fore have lost their local trade."
Chief Bateman added that he thought
it was Just a case of the moral wave
overwhelming Vancouver as It had done
scores of other cities. He would not
say whether he thought it would last
for any considerable length of time or
r.ot. The general Impression in Van
couver seems o be that to enforce the
law as literally as it was yesterday will
Injure the town, and retard ?ts growth
materially. While none would say so
outright, it was freely hinted that to
keep the lid on as tight as It now is will
become a most unpopular "fad" In time,
and that there will be a let-up sooner
or later.
Vancouver has not been a real "closed
town"' for 23 years. There was some
kind of an explosion under the lid a few
weeks after it was fastened on the other
time, and It was blown off so far out of
sight and reach that it had never been
found.
The authorities declare they were pre
pared for any trouble or disturbance that
might occur after midnight, last night,
for the saloons were planning to open
at 12 o'clock, seeing that under their
license they are allowed to run .24 hours
a day If they like.
SHEEP SLAYER AGAIN BUSY
Range War Breaks Out Afresh In
Eastern Klamath County.
LAKEVIEW, Or.. June 30. (Special.)
Again the layer of sheep on the
range has been at work In Eastern
Oregon. Word reached here today that
while F. H- Fajcton, of this place, was
ranging a bunch of mutton sheep
toward the railroad at Merrill to get
them to market, unknown parties shot
down some 30 or 40 head. The slaugh
ter took place In Eastern Klamath
County, the same locality where sheep
were killed some two or' three years
ago, when the range war was on, and
several thousand sheep were slaugh
tered and their owners almost bank
rupted financially. No reason can be
assigned for the recent slaughter, other
than objection on the part -oft the stock
men using that particular range to
taking sheep through what they would
term "their territory."
ATTORNEY WORKS OX SUTTDAT
Getting Ready to Bring Suit Against
the Oregon & California.
SALEM, Or., June 30. (Special.)
Though this was Sunday it was no day
of rest for Attorney B. D. Townsend, who
was sent to Oregon by the United States
Attorney-General to bring suit against
the Oregon and California Railroad
Company to cancel Its land grant
for non-compliance with the conditions
of the grant. Mr. Townsend was
at work nearly all day In the state
library looking up the law to support
the positions he intends to take relative
to the rights of the Government since
the company has violated its part of the
contract contained in the grant. Mr.
Townsend declines to announce just what
course he thinks the Government will
take and will make no announcement
until he has reported to the Attorney
General. He was in consultation with
Congressman Hawley last evening and
says he received much valuable assist
ance from that source. He will also re
ceive while here such suggestions as
may be offered by attorneys representing
private individuals who are Interested in
the case. He will be here several days.

AMERICAN IDEAS
MEEMH FAVOR
Delegates at The Hague Ex
press Desire to Support
Liberal Policies.
MEMBERS EXCHANGE VIEWS
Latin-Americans Raise Only Opposi
tion to Proposals to Make Private
Property at Sea Inviolable.
Europeans Issue Statement.
THE HAGUE, June 30.-Pronting by
the holiday, the leading plenlpotentaries
met privately today to exchange views
on the principal questions before the
peace conference. Joseph H. Choate and
General Horace Porter conversed at
length with Sir Edward Fry and Sir
Ernest Satow, of the British delegation.
Professor De Martens, of Russia, Count
Tornelll. of Italy, and Dr. Kriger, of
Germany, while William T. Buchanan,
who was the chairman of the American
delegation, which attended the Pan
American congress, discussed affairs with
several of the South American delegates.
Some opposition seems to be raised
against the proposition of the Inviolably y
of private, property at sea by several
Latin-American countries, which, having
no merchant marine, think that the
abolition of the right of capture and of
privateering will deprive them of a
weapon dreaded by their enemies. The
whole triple alliance, however, strongly
support this proposition. Indeed, among
the numerous secret documents distributed
today in sealed envelopes to the delegates
are definite declarations to that effect.
Austria Takes Liberal View.
The Austrian delegation issued the fol
lowing declaration:
The Inviolability of private property at
sea having- been the object of many serious
works and Judicial studies is now so generally
acknowledged that a new discussion of this
principle is merely a recapitulation, more or
leas identical with those uttered many times
by the most competent and erudite scholars.
Austria, taking lnU account private Interests
and the essentially humanitarian object of this
principle adopted it long ago. It therefore
wishes to state that It will follow the most
liberal point of view regarding the capture and
confiscation of merchantmen.
Italy makes the following statement:
Italy being among the signatory powers of
the declaration of Paris, March 39, 1856, re
garding the abolition of privateering, strongly
adheres to the doctrine so tenaciously sup
ported by the United States. In the confer
ence of 1S09, Italy stated her position, but as
the present conference might not be in a po
sition to take a decision completely favorable
to the inviolability of private property at sea,
the Italian delegation expresses its
desire that the middle course propositlQn be
presented and discussed.
Baron Marchal von Blebersteln, head
of the German delegation, stated, to
the Associated Press that Germany's
attitude in this matter was entirely
favorable.
BOYCOTT THE CITY ELECTION
