Aged Schemer Falls by Way
side in Pursuit of Fickle
Fortune.
JAIL OR THE POORFARM
T. S. Sullivan Is Given Bitter Choice
and Becomes County Charge.
Barely Escapes Prison for
Making False Pretenses.
It is a most arduous and deceptive
course that the road to prosperity fol
lows. One day all Is rosebuds and the
trail ahead is clear and well defined.
The next it is tortuous .with many In
viting bypaths. And the hapless pil
grim chosing one of these lures drops
most unexpectedly into the abyss o
ruin.
T. S. Sullivan got Into one of these
bypaths yesterday, just when he thought
the trail of fortune was clear to him
and not to be lost. He awoke yester
day morning with cheerful interest in
life, confident success was -close at
hand. He slept last night at the poor
house, which hereafter will be his
home. - He is done with the world and
Its petty struggles. --
But Sullivan is fortunate, rather than
unfortunate, in that he was permitted
to go to the home for paupers. It could
have been far worse, for It appears
that his business methods we-e such as
are calculated to land men In the peni
tentiary. Sullivan is 60 years of age, and has
been striving for a fortune all his life.
It Is said he was never content to save
on a small scale, but spent all he coull
earn in, risky speculative ventures. His
last venture doubtless would have suc
ceeded, had his method of operation
not become known.
Worked Under an Alias.
At the outset of this latest venture
he chose two names, one Sullivan and
the other McDonald. He then set about
establishing credit for McDonald. - He
bought a number of tents from the Wil
lamette Tent & Awning Company for
$17 each, under the name of McDonald.
He Eold them for 4 each. This neces
sarily would have been a losing game,
but for the fact that Sullivan had es
tabllshed credit with the company un
' der his assumed name and had 0 days
in which to pay. This was ten -lays
ago.
Sullivan had similar tr&nsactios
with other business houses, each time
securing credit under his assumed
name. His purchases were tents, tools
and such articles as unlawful optra-
tors are not usually Inclined to trifle
with.
Complaint was mode to the police
when Sullivan's methods became known
Monday. Yesterday morning early he
was arrested. He was charged with ob
- tainlng goods under false pretenses, but
k It was'quickly seen this charge would
not hold, since the old man had 50 days
left in which, to meet his obligations.
Plainly, In buying at the market price
and selling for a fraction thereof. Ills
intentions could hardly have been hon
est, the authorities argued, but that
did not change the law, especially when
Sullivan insisted he meant to meet the
full amount of his debts when they be
came due.
Knowing tha old man could not mean
to pay up, Judge Cameron suggested
that a charge of vagrancy might be
brought, and a complaint under the
vagrancy law was drawn up. McDon
ald pretended to be highly indignant at
this. He said he knew what he was
doing and was on the way to making
money.
Court Pierces the Bubble.
"Brokers quite often malte money by
( buying at ti and selling for 817. but
not the reverse," said Judge Cameron.
"You have' come to think too much of
money."
"I've had a hard row to hoe," plead
ed Sullivan bitterly.
"That's because you wanted too much
and wanted it too easily, no doubt,"
suggested the court. "It would be bet
ter now for you to retire, say, to the
poor farm, since you have provided no
other place for your age."
"Never the poor farm for me."
snapped Sullivan, turning pale and
breaking into an ague of fear. "I've
not finished my try at making good yet,
I tell you. I'll not go to the poor farm
why, that's that's "
"Very well, then, you'll have to go to
jail. That's the only alternative."
The old man's struggle with himself
was pitiable. Doubtless it was the
v most uncomfortable moment of a most
uncomfortable . life. The4 two most
dreaded of evils were left to his choos
ing. Both were horribly repulsive to
him, but the choice was of his own
earning. It was perhaps five minutes
that he consumed the court's time in
debating with himself.
"Well, which is it to be?" asked the
Judge.
"The poor farm," said Sullivan, little
above a whisper.
BAY WATER COSTS TOO MUCH
. UNDER METER SYSTEM.
Trustees of Chamber of Commerce
. Take Up Matter and Will Make
Investigation.
Owing to the almost prohibitive rates
charged the large consumers of water In
this city, the trustees of the Chamber of
Commerce at a meeting yesterday morn
Ing decided to have the 'matter thor
oughly Investigated and with this in view
appointed a committee composed of F.
A. Nltchey, of Crane Company; I. N.
Fleischner and Harvey O" Bryan.
Many complaints have been made in
regard to revision of the water rates.
Business houses which formerly paid
from $25 to $35 a month for water con
sumed by elevators, now average over
$75 for the same period. Some firms, in
fact, who have paid $20 or $25 a month
for one elevator must now pay $60, $70
and even $75 a month. The Chamber has
been Informed that many of the business
houses will install electric elevators un
less their complaints are heeded.
In case this is done the Chamber of
Commerce trustees say every property
owner and householder In the City of
Portland will be affected, as the loss to
the Water Department will be such that
the water rent to housenoiuers will
necessarily be increased. This will be
especially felt among the small home
owners who have built on the install
ment plan and will have to stand an ad
ditional charge for water rent.
It is contended that tne water rates
were changed for the purpose of con
serving the water supply which is furn
ished to Portland; but on the other hand,
the business men complain that there are
wasteful mei.iods now employed by the
Water Department which being done
away- with win give ample water for
household and business purposes.
This committee will, at the same time,
look Into the question of water supply
for fire protection purposes. This is a
matter which affects every one in the
City or Portland, as w.vu a proper de
gree of protection there will necessarily
be fewer conflagrations and the rate for
fire insurance will, therefore, be lowered.
The saving In property, and even life,
would- be enormous.
At this meeting of the trustees of the
Chamber of Commerce many other im
portant matters were discussed, but,
owing to the fact that several of the
trustees are out of the city, ese ques
tions will te presented at a later date.
The Chamber appointed a committee
consisting of B. H. Trumbull, W. F.
Burrell. W. J. Burns. M. E. Warrell,
F. H. Page, Gordon Voorhies and Mark
Levy to represent that organisation at
Medford, Or., at the Medford Fruit
Carnival to be held August 6-10.
CITY BONDS AFIE IN DEMAND
EASTERN BUYERS WIXli TAKE
PORTLAND ISSUES.
Sale of Securities Prevented bj
Auditor's Refusal to Act Without
Further Legal Advice.
No steps have been taken to sell the
municipal bonds that were voted at the
city election last June. Neither has any
proceeding been brought in the courts to
test the validity of the proposed bond is
sues. - City Attorney Kavanaugh sub
mitted to City Auditor Barbur an, opin
ion holding that the election at which
the bond Issues were voted was legal,
and declaring that the bonds when issued
would be valid. The City Attorney then
departed on his vacation and Auditor
Barbur has done nothing more toward
disposing of the bonds.
At a recent meeting the Council dIded
to proceed with the sale of the Madison
street bridge bonds, amounting to $450,000,
after requesting an opinion from the City
Attorney as to the regularity of the elec
tion. But the action of the Council, Au
ditor Barbur contends, did not authorize
him to advertise the bonds for sale and
he has decided to wait until he can be
further advised by the City Attorney. He
further holds that the City Council
should direct him to advertise the pro
posed bond isBue. At any rate the City
Auditor says he will wait until he re
ceives further instructions, either from
the City Attorney or the Council.
"Although the bonds have not been ad
vertised for sale," said Auditor Barbur
yesterday, "I have received a large num
ber of inquiries from Eastern bond-buying
firms that are desirous of securing
them. The city will have no trouble in
disposing of its bonds, since those for
the Madison-street bridge improvement
earry 4 per cent interest and are to run
for 30 years, making them a desirable
Investment.
"The vigorous way in which the Gov
ernment is prosecuting the large corpora
tions is making money more plentiful for
investment in municipal bonds, which are
considered' a more stable investment.
"Representatives of some of these bond
ing firms have come here to Investigate
the status of the proposed bond issues.
They are agreed that the sale of the
bonds would be expedited if all question
as to their legality were to be settled by
a suit. For some time there was talk
that a suit to test the validity of the
bonds would be brought, but I have heard
nothing of it lately I do not know when
or by whom such a suit will be instituted.
The city will not decide definitely on fur-
tner steps until the Council meets next
week."

MUNICIPAL GRAFT DRA3IATIZED
"The Undertow" at the Marquam Is
the Play of the Hour.
Everybody who l interested In good gov
ernment should see "The Undertow," which
the Stockwell-MacGregor Company is pre
senting at the Marquam this week. It not
only deals with the greatest of present-day
problems In a most startling manner, but it
tells a beautiful story of love and intrlsue
as well. As the young newspaper reporter
who reforms a city, Franklyn Underwood is
making a tine impression, and the rest of
the company is giving him admirable sup
port. The first act showing the interior of a
big city newspaper office is the most realis
tic bit of stage setting ever seen here. See
"The Undertow" tonight at the Marquam.
Matinee tomorrow and Saturday.
"Jim the Westerner" Is Popular.
One of the biggest hits in the history of
the Lyric is being offered this week when
the Allen Stock Company is presenting the
thrilling modern comedy-drama, "Jim the
Westerner." The play was presented at the
Baker last Winter and was bo well re
ceived that Manager Murphy and Director
Allen-decided it would be a good bill for
this week. Their Judgment was good, as
has been demonstrated by the enthusiasm
which has greeted the performances since
the play was first given last Monday night.
Star Matinee Tomorrow,
"A Bachelor's Honeymoon" will be
played at the Star Theater matinee tomor
row This is a typical American comedy
built on original lines, and the title gives
some idea of the fun that Is contained in
its situations and lines. Earl Dwire is
appearing in the leading role, through
courtesy of George L. Baker, who brought
him to Portland for the coming season. "A
Bachelor's Honeymoon" is one of the laugh
ing hits of the year and is pleasing the
crowds who patronize the Star. There win
be three more matinees, Thursday, Satur
day and Sunday. Seats are now selling at
the box office. - -
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
"The Two Orphans" Next Week.
The Lyric will make another big bid for
patronage next week, when the famous
classic. "The Two Orphans," will be the
offering of the Allen Stock Company. This
famous play is one of the most popular
dramas ever presented on the American
stage and for years has been a standby. It
will be given by the Allen Company in a
manner which has seldom been equaled here
uu win iciLtuiuy prove a drawing card.
AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS
Ibsen in Vaudeville.
That Ibsen wrote a vaudeville sketch Is
not generally known, even to his admirers.
"Friendship," the headline act at the
Grand, Is an Ibsen sketch, a satire on the
modern problem play. It Is offered by
David B. Proctor and Henry A. Lappln.
two of the best known vaudeville artists of
the Eastern circuit. Unlike other Ibsen
plays, "Friendship" has considerable com
edy. Robinson and Grant are two short
comedians who produce a barrel of fun.
The Bartelmas are balancers, and Slvie
Dench is an Australian contralto of unusual
ability. There is a high class vaudeville en
tertainment at the Grand and that is why
the house Is crowded.
IT FILLS FAR SHORT
Puget Sound and Alaska Sal
mon Pack Small:
MONEY LOSS IS LARGE
Estimated That 400,000 Cases Less
Than Last Year M ill Be Packed,
Meaning a Loss of $2,000,
000 to the Packers.
SKATTLE, Wash., Aug. 6 (Special.)
Compared with previous average years,
the salmon pack of Puget Sound and
Alaska this year will show a shrinkage
of 400.000 cases of red Alaska and 50,000
cases or more of Puget Sound sockeyes.
The monetary loss to the fishing Interests
of. the North Pacific Coast will not be
far short of $2,000,000. That the -pack of
Alaska red salmon will be 400.000 cases
short of last year is the startling infor
mation received yesterday by the Kelley
Clarke Company, Indicating that the
mainstay and reliance of the packing in
dustry of the North has suffered at a
time when the packers could ill afford the
loss.
Estimates made by packers on ' the
Sound are that not more than 75,000 cases
of sockeyes will be packed this year, as
against 123,000 cases in 1904. which was
the worst on record until the year 1905.
BELLINGHAM IS ENCOURAGED
Catch of 52,0 Q0 Salmon Received,
Largest of Season. ,
BELLINGHAM, Wash., Aug. 6. (Spe
cial.) Fifty-two thousand salmon were
received at the local canneries last night.
The Pacific American Fisheries plant got
4u,C00 and the Bellingham Cannery 12,000.
This is the largest catch of the season
and cannerymen are encouraged at the
prospects. All of the fish received by the
Pacific American Fisheries were lifted
from the company's traps, and of the
number received at the Bellingham Can
nery, 8000 were taken from the traps and
4000 were caught by the seiners. For
several days the cannerymen have feared
the Ash were migrating to the Fraser
Hiver by another path and it was thought
the traps would be missed entirely, but
all fears have been dispelled by the re
sult of last night's catch.
Drain Sawmill Burns.
DRAIN, Or., Aug. . (Special.) The
Palmer Lumber Company at Drain lost
its entire sawmill plant by fire last night.
The loss including the plant and lumber
burned Is about $20,000. No insurance.
