11
BUSIEST DAY IN THE
T
Four State Circuit Judges for
Multnomah Have Ail They
Can Attend To.
TERM OPENS WITH RUSH
Mill Decisions Rendered, Two Sen
' tenets Passed, Three Jury Trials
Started 35 Arraignments
Heard, 175 Orders Cleared.
With ITS orders disposed of, three de
cisions rendered, 35 arraignments heard,
two sentences passed, three Jury trials
(rotten under way and 25 new cases set
for hearing, the State Circuit Court tor
Multnomah County completed the Busiest
dsr of its existence yesterday.
Four ludites had all they could attend
to, tor after the enforced Inaction of over
two months, there were many matters
requiring' immediate action. While three
small Jury trials were all that appeared
on the calendar for the opening day, this
made ut a minute part of the day s worn.
With the opening of court yesterday
morning the upper floor of the courthouse
presented a busy scene. Scores of venire
men were at hand, summoned, for Jury
service. Busy lawyers flustered here and
there, happy once more in the unre
strained business of earning a livennooa
Litigants and court loungers filled In the
mass of humanity. In the corridors oe
fora the courts took up their sessions,
there was little room to move about.
Presiding Judge Cleland was the storm
center all day. The lion's share of the
work foil to him. He issued every one
tf the 175 orders pertaining to all man
nerr of litigation. When he was through
with that, and Incidentally having as
signed the three Jury trials to Judges
Qantenbein. O'Day and Bronough, the
Presiding Judge got to work placing new
trials on the March calendar. After a
breathing spell at the noon hour, he took
up the arraignment of criminals, and
those charged with criminal offenses. The
first of these to be disposed of was that
of the Title Guarantee & Trust aggrega
tion, and this occupied something over
a half-hour, counting in the qualifying of
bondsmen. After that, the other ar
raignments were heard and sentences
were passed in two cases.
G'dman Sentenced to Prison.
The first man to receive sentence waa
M. F. Goldman, the young man who em
bezzled J293.7S from Sig Sichel & Com
pany, while employed as a clerk at the
firm n cigar store. Goldman was sen
tenced to 15 months In.; the penitentiary.
It was a sharp blow to him that he did
not get paroled, for he had rather been
expecting some such leniency. But Judge
t'leland said nothing about a parole and
Goldman will turn his energies to the
sock nnd stove-making profession.
Goldman took the sentence stolidly,
but his young wife was nearly frantic.
She, too, had shared the hope that
Goldman would receive a parole. They
had made great plans for the future,
friends say, and were planning to
leave the city together. Since the mid
dle of the Summvr, when the young
husband committed his strange crime
and fled to San Francisco, Mrs. Gold
man has stood by him and done every
thing possible to get him out of trou
ble. Her departure from the court
house after she had heard the court's
verdict was a touching spectacle, Gold
man pleaded guilty to the charge Just
before the holiday period and has been
awaiting- sentence since November.
John Wallace and John Shannon
were the next to he-jolted by the law
ror wrongdoing. They were convicted
jointly in November of having robbed
L'hnrlea Phillips of $7.50. Judge Cle
land sentenced them to assist at Kellys
Butte during the next 60 days.
Three minor decisions were an
nounced by Judge Gantenbeln. The
first was in the case of Iouis J. Wilde
sgalnst the Oregon Savings & Trust
Hompany. with reference to a petition
Interposed by Finnegan Brothers for a
setoff. This was allowed. In the civil
suit of the German Savings and Loan
Association, findings for plaintiff were
returned. The third was denial of a
motion for a new trial in the suit of
Beorge W. Brower against H. W.
Lemcke.

TWO DIVORCE SCrTS FILED
Husband Accuses Wife or Infidelity
and a Wife Alleges Desertion.
Two divorce complaints were filed in
the State Circuit Court yesterday. R. B.
Henry, after living with his wife, Sylvia
E. Henry, for ten years, which he de
clares was tilled with much bliss and
happiness for other men than himself,
brought suit yesterday. He says they
were married November 15, 1SS7, but that
during the past Summer and Fall she
lias permitted men callers to remain at
the house until unseemly hours. As
Henry Is & traveling man and compelled
to be much away from home, he asserts
that his wife's conduct caused mueh
Bcandalous talk in the neighborhood, and
that he remonstrated with her and told
her to mend her ways. He says the only
property involved is two lots in Willam
ette Addition worth 450, and asks that
his wife be adjudged to have no interest
in It.
Maud Foulds, who married Peter J.
Foulds. at Westminster, B. C, October
3, 1W0, is suing him for a divorce. They
have four children aged 15. 13, 11 and 9
years, respectively, who are in the care
of the Alexander Orphanage Home, of
Vancouver, B. C. Although the couple
have been married for 17 years, Mrs.
HISTORY
OF GOUR
Foulds says her happiness lasted only six
months, as her husband be.gan to drink
in 1891. and often goes on lengthy sprees.
She says that at such times he carries
a revolver In his pocket and threatens
to shoot her and the children. She says
that in addition to spending his money
in riotous living he sold all the house
hold furniture in March, 1901, and de
serted her.
CHARGES AGAINST HITCHIXGS
Shepherd Seeks in Complaint to Dls
bar Portland Attorney.
Charges against Attorney J. H. Httch
ings which may leaa to disbarment pro
ceedings have been made to the griev
ance committee of the State Bar As
sociation by George S. Shepherd, who
accuses Hltchings of having made a
proposition to Captain Bruin which
the Bar Association cannot tolerate.
Shepherd says Hltchings represented
to Bruin that he was the attorney for
the owner of a Park-street apartment
house, and that the landllord wished
to oust the tenant, but unless it should
be charged with being a disreputable
place, this aould not be done. Hltch
ings, it is said, then went on to tell
Captain 'Bruin of -an arrangement he
had made -with a disorderly woman to
be in the building on a certain night,
at which time Bruin was asked to make
a raid.
Shepherd says Hltchings Informed
Bruin that a fine present would await
him at the station the next day If the
raid was effected. . The Incident was
told to Mr. Shepherd by Captain Bruin.
COURT WITHOUT JURISDICTION
Federal ' Judge Mar Only Adjust
Damages on Water.
Admiralty suits can only be maintained
in the Federal Court when the damages
sought to be recovered are sustained in
the water, according to a point raised In
the Federal Court yesterday by Attorney
George S. Shepherd. Mrs. Mary Phelps
Montgomery, executrix, had libeled the
British ship Milton burn for a claim of $75
for damages to the Montgomery dock. In
this city. Attorney Shepherd demurred
to the complaint, alleging that the injury
had been done to property connecting
with the land, and for that reason the
court was without Jurisdiction to try the
case, which properly belonged in a civil
suit in the State Circuit Courts.
Recognizing thfr merit of the question of
jurisdiction. Attorney Boothe, for the 11
bellant, moved the dismissal of the sult.
This is believed to be the first time the
point has been raised in the Federal
Court here.
Suit Over Rooming-House Furniture
In Judge O'Day's department Sarah J.
B. Swank Is suing C. P. Elwert, C. M. El
wert and A'. Shubeck to recover '$1500
damages because it is alleged the defend
ants entered her rooming-house at 385
Yamhill street and confiscated the furni
ture. The house was rented by Sarah
Swank from Mrs. Elwert, and the former,
it is asserted, was $30 behind with the
rent. But very little of the testimony
was taken yesterday, nearly the entire
time being consumed in obtaining the
jury, and with the contentions of the
lawyers over minor points in the suit.
The jury in Judge Bronbugh's depart
ment is hearing the case of Thomas
Darling against S. A. Miles, In which
suit has been brought for $400 damages.
On July 20. 1906, it Is lalleged. Darling
bought two- lots in Pleasant View Addi
tion, Multnomah County, of Miles; for
$2150. Darling alleges that the property
was misrepresented to him and that he is
thereby the loser to the amount of $400.
Suit Against Street Railway.
Through his father, J. C. Taft. who has
been appointed guardian, Edwin Taft, a
years old, is uing the Portland Railway
Company in Judge -Gantenbein's depart
ment of the Circuit Court to recover
$10,000 for. Injuries sustained when he was
run down by a car at East Morrison and
Sixth streets on the night of September
29, 1906. The boy was crossing the track
with his sister, when a west-bound car
struck him, and, it is alleged, fractured
his skull at the base, and cut and
bruised his leg. ,
William D. Fenton was on the car at
the time, and removed the boy from un
der it. He found him wedged between
the body of the car and the front trucks,
but he had not been run over. The com
plaint alleges that the car waa going 25
miles an hour, whereas the city ordinance
requires a speed of not more than 12.
Attorney Fenton, however, in a deposition
taken some months ago, declares the car
was going only 10 miles an hour. The
entire time yesterday morning was taken
in obtaining a Jury. In the afternoon the
Jury went to look at the premises.
Company Wants Suit Dismissed.
The Portland Railway Company filed its
answer In the Circuit Court yesterday to
the suit brought against it by E. C. Ship
ley to recover damages because he was
ejected from a iMorrison-street car. Tne
answer alleges that Shipley boarded a car
going west, on June 23, last, having se
cured a transfer from a Mississippi-avenue
car. As the transfer Is alleged to
have -been an hour old the conductor re
fused it, whereupon Shipley is said to
have become abusive, and to have used
such profane language that the conductor
endeavored to put him off. As Shipley
resisted the motorman's efforts, help was
called for. The company asks that the
suit be dismissed.
Seeks to Clear Title. -
Karl FrHsehe. of Dresden, Germany,
has filed a friendly suit in the Circuit
Court against Bertha, Bmllle, Karl and
Anton Fritsche, In which he asks that the
court construe the will of his father,
Josef Fritsche, who died at Dresden,
March 18, 1907. The property, consisting
of four lots in Caruthers Addition, was
left to the plaintiff and defendants In the
suit. The plaintiff says that the last
clause in the will provides that Karl
Fritsche shall leave his share of half
in the estate to his children. This clause.
he asserts, casts a cloud over his prop
erty, and he asks the court to construe
the will and clear the title.
Answer in Hop Suit.
In his answer to the suit brought
against him by the Krebs Hop Company,
E. J. Smith, ot New York, admits that
he was under a contract with the Krebs
Company to purchase a given quantity of
hops each season, the hops to be grown
upon the Krebs Company's 400-acre yard.
Smith alleges that the company offered
him hops of an inferior grade and which
were not grown upon the 400-acre place,
and that he refused them. He says that
in 1905, 1906 and 1907 the Krebs Company
refused to furnish him hops according to
contract.
Reid Sues for Judgment.
William Reid, who recently purchased
the ownership of the Columbia "Timber
Company and of the Goble, Nehalem &
Pacific Railway Company from F. 3.
Stanley, I C. Stanley, W. 8. Dwinell and
R. 8mlth. has brought suit against them
in the Circuit Court. His allegation is
that, these persons have failed to pay a
Judgment of $2869 secured against the
corporations ly E. U Davidson, while it
is alleged that the defendants in the suit
agreed before selling to protect Reid from
all such damages.
Account of Reed Estate.
The seventh semi-annual account in the
estate ot Amanda W. Reed was filed
with the County Clerk yesterday. It
shows that the estate had oh hand June
20, 422,045. and has received from all

a totai oi s,ia.75. uuring tnis same

Mrs. Anna Raima and D. F. Raims In
their answer to the suit brought against
them by F. B. Starbuck and J. W. Phenl
cie, demand judgment in the sum of $521
because it is alleged that the plaintiffs,

two-story flat for Mrs. Raima failed to
do the work as well as the specifications
called for.

LICENSES FOR BREWERIES
CLASSED, AS MAJTCFACTOREES,
WIIL PAT $400 A TEAR.
All Breweries Will Be Exempt From
State Law Prohibiting Liquor
Dispensaries Near Schools.
The Weinhard Brewery waa the chief
subject of discussion at the regular meet
ing of the Council liquor license commit,
tee, held yesterday afternoon.
After two hours' discussion, it was de
cided to fix a license of $400 a year for
breweries as manufactories, thus exempt
ing them from the law against liquor
stores within 400 feet of a school building.
The application of C. F. Landerholm,
for a transfer of a saloon license from
South Portland to Twenty-first and Sher
lock streets was denied. Mr. Vaughn
was the only member voting for the
petition.
When the "Weinhard Brewery natter
came up, Mr. Vaughn moved to amend
the proposed wholesale liquor dealers' li
cense so as to include all breweries, but
this met with unanimous objection from
the other members. Mr. Driscoll moved
to make a separate ordinance for brew
eries, classifying them as manufacturers,
and fixing their license at $400 & year.
This carried, and the City Attorney will
draft the measure, which will be recom
mended to the council.
During the discussion as to the proper
classification for tie Weinhard Brewery,
Mr. Vaughn demanded to know of Mr.
Bennett which the latter favored first in
this matter the Weinhard Brewery .or the
Atkinson School. Mr. Ber.nett said he
held the school Interests above those of
the brewery, but that the brewery, being
a big enterprise, and having been estab
lished 15 years efore the school, was de
serving of consideration. He declared
himself unfavorable to the saloon busi
ness, as a whole, but said all business
concerns must have fair treatment.
Councilman Wills spoke in favor of giv
ing the brewery a chance. Three school
directors, if they should choose, he said,
could put a $10,000,000 brewery out ot busi
ness by using the state law which prohib
its such institutions near public schools.

PREFERS JAIL TO FREEDOM
WITH PARDON I' POCKET, PTJ
TER RETURNS TO CELL.
Will Depart From Sheriffs Hostelry
Today, However, and Devote
Time to Sew Book. ,
S. A. D. Puter received his pardon from
the Government eariy yesterday after
noon. But he spent nla first night of lib
erty In jail, nevertheless.
It was not from necessity, but choice,
that Puter went to Sheriff Stevens' hos
telry last night and registered for the
night. The place that had sheltered
him for so long held something of a spell
over him and while there was a lot of
satisfaction in knowing he might come
and go as he saw fit, yet Puter could not
break away from the pleasant environ
ment that has known him for 17 months
last past.
He was given quarters at the jail for
the night, but does not expect to stay
there any longer. In his pocket ' he has
his formal pardon, duly signed by the
President. As the state charge Is yet
pending, his horizon cannot be said to be
altogether clear, but he does not take
that seriously. He was required to fur
nish a bond of $1000. This he secured
during the noon hour, with George Soren-
son and J. J. Cusack as sureties.
The imputation that Puter went to Jail
last night because of lack of funds Is
probably without fundation. Just what
private means he may have Is a matter
best known to himself, but he had no
trouble raising the $1000 bond and he
would have had no trouble getting funds
to stop at the best hotel in the city last
night had he so desired.
Pater's chief interest now la his forth
coming expose of -the land-fraud ring. He
has little to say on this subject, although
he bints mysteriously at sensations in
high life that will follow the publication
of his work.) Several men that are now
enjoying high public favor and exalted
positions within the gift ' of the people
may not be so fortunate when the Puter
volume comes out, it is suggested. How
ever that may be remains to be seen.
Maggie Doyle, a notorious person with
a penchant for getting drunk, was re
leased yesterday1 at the same time as
Puter. She had been in the place for 70
days. Oddly enough, Maggie returned to
the Jail last night. No romance is at
tached to "the incident, however, it being
regarded purely in the light of a coinci
dence, although Puter and Miss Doyle
have been friendly during their long In
carceration. COMPLAINT OF POOR GAS
Health Board Orders Investigation
of Present Product. '--
At the meeting of the City Board of
Health yesterday morning, complaint was
made against the quality of gas furnished
by the Portland Gas Company,- and an
Investigation of the product now being
sold was ordered. Dr. Ray W. Matson,
state bacteriologist, and others have com
plained to City Health Officer Pohl of the
odors emitted from gas lamps in various
places in the city. The matter was dis
cussed freely at yesterday's session of
the Board. Dr. Victoria L. Hampton said
she had analysed some of the gas and
found that the cause of the trouble lay in
the manufacturing process.
Officials of the Gas Company told Dr.
Pohl they were using sulphur to purify
the gas, and that some of the sulphur es
caped from the lamps at times. Dr.
Hampton, however, told the members of
the Board of Health her analysis showed
that sulphur Is used by the company and
that it will take a more costly process in
the manufacture of the product to purify
the gas.
Market Inspector Evans reported that
the dairies in Portland and vicinity are
unclean. Dr. Pohl reported that the Chi
nese quarter has -been cleaned up by her
orders, and that much better conditions
abound there now than heretoiore. It
was decided to locate the city's new lab
oratory in the City Hall.
DEPOSITORS AID REOPENING
Accept Time Certificates for Deposits
."" in Merchants Bank.
Depositors in the closed Merchants'
National Bank are giving hearty support
to the plan of reopening now being fol
lowed, the chief proposition of which Is
the. acceptance of time certificates In
lieu of their balances by depositors. It
is said that over $100,000 was signed off
yesterday by creditors and it Is believed
no difficulty will be experienced in
making this part of the reorganization a
success.
"Many large depositors are said to have
subscribed to the 24-months certificates
readily, thus making the plan of reor
ganization . that much nearer realization.
Bank Examiner Wilson and President
Watson of the bank were keptT)usy yes
terday explaining the scheme to many
depositors who visited the bank. The
officials will be on hand every day here
after to convert demand accounts into
interest-bearing time certificates.
