LAWYERS FIGHT
01 EVERY POINT
iVaymire-Radding Trial De
velops the Warmest Kind
of Legal Battle.
MAY NOT END THIS WEEK
Tilts Follow Calling of Mandelay
ami Wills to the Stand Former
Goes Back on Testimony Given
at the Preliminary Hearing.
Legal scrimmages and tilting hack and
forth among the half-dozen lawyers en
gaged in the Waymire-Radding trial, oc
cupied a major portion of yesterday's ses
sion of the case. While the utmost cau
tion has heen exercised by the lawyers
from the first, the acridity that appeared
yesterday was a new development and
niany severe charges were hinted at or
made by innuendo, hack and forth.
Two important witnesses for the state,
both of them hostile in a measure to Mayor
Line, were the cause Of .most of the
difficulty. Some rather unpleasant things
were said and at least one apology was
made. The first of these witnesses in
ciuestion, L. L. Mandelay. plainly favored
the defense, and in his anxiety to favor
Mrs. AVaymiro and Radding, Mandelay
flatly contradicted his sworn testimony as
given at the rreliminaxy examination in
the Municipal, i "ourt. The other unfriendly
witness, A. N. Wills, president of the C ity
Council, obviously tried to he fair. Much
capital was made by liis appearance on
either side.
When the case closed for the day the
prosecution had quite a list of witnesses
yet to bo called. All these may possibly
be heard today. But the defense has a
long list of witnesses of Its own. including
Mrs. Waymlre and Radding, and thoe
may be counted upon to occupy more
than one day. Inasmuch as the arguments
are to be lengthy, there does not appear
to be any chance of finishing up this
week, especially as Saturday la a holiday.
The tactics of the lawyers and . their
extreme zeal in the case are necessitated
from the fact that the battle is essentially
a legal fight. The testimony will bo flatly
contradictory throughout. Mayor Iatie
has testitiedi that Mrs. Waymire attacked
him In his private office in the Hamilton
Building last September. Mrs. Waymire,
when she takes the stand, will swear that
the Mayor attacked her. Ho has pre
sented minute details of .the episode. Mrs.
Waymire has her own set of details. She
will say the chief executive persisted in
making love to her, first quietly and then
violently.
Hard Task for the Jury.
The jurors, of course, are sworn to take
each bit of testimony at its worth. They
cannot discriminate in favor of the
Mayors testimony because of his official
position. The reputations of the various
witnesses, the little sidelights on the
testimony which tend to reveal the grains
of real truth from the dross of prevarica
tion and perjury must necessarily be in
tensified and developed. Where two ver
sions so diametrically opposed are being
presented someone is lying, it Is urged.
From the details of the ease the jury
must make its selections and hence the
incessant turmoil of the lawyers.
To say that every word of every wit
ness Is being weighed and every phrase
analyzed for possible flaw is putting it
mildly. Bvory infraction of a legal
technicality in the presentation of evi
dence is challenged by the defense. Every
Irregularity In cross-examination brings
instant objection from the state.
Mandelay yesterday went back com
pletely on the sworn testimony he gave
at the preliminary examination and stood
out stubbornly against the? prosecution.
The impression prevailed that he did the
state far more good by this than could
have resulted had lie been open and
frank. While he said at the preliminary
hearing before Judge Camecnn that Rad
ding asked him to go to the Hamilton
building on the night of the trouble to
witness something exciting that was to
.occur he persisted yesterday that he
went to the building merely to have
dental work done and was a chance ob
server of Mrs. Waymire's flight from
Mayor Lane's private office.
Mandelay a Poor Witness.
As on former occasions Mandelay was
uncertain, easily confused and a miser
able witness. He gave the impression
that he wanted to keep back something
hut was half afraid to do It. When he
had finished, the transcript of his testi
mony before the lower court was read
by. the defense for purposes of impeach
ment.
Mandelay was on the stand all fore
noon and. a large measure of the after
noon. His testimony was the cause of
continual wrangling. Attorney Fonts,
who cross-examined the witness, got
from him a statement that since the
trouble his creditors have been pressing
him in an unseemly manner. He said he
had been sued on accounts he owed and
that Bauer & Greene had been the law
yers. Tt was pointed out in this con
nection that Mr. Cireene. as a member
of the "Executive BoaVd, is one nf Mayor
.Lane's closest friends and advisers.
Mr. Fonts set out to show that a con
spiracy existed with Bauer. Greene, Tan
J. Malarkey. chief counsel for the state,
and District Attorney Manning as the
central figures, to intimidate Mandelay.
Mr. Malarkey made an Indignant protest
to such an inference, and when ques
tioned Mandelay admitted no one bad
ever spoken to him. on behalf of the
state about the nature of his testimony.
The teapot tempest subsided when At
torney Logan, counsel for the defense,
arose with a profound apology, saying he
did not for a single Instant believe that
Mr. Malarkey. Mr. Greene or Mr. Bauer
had ever entertained an idea of intimi
dating Mandelay.
"How "about me. John?" inquired the
Pistrict Attorney, noting his name had
been left out the list. .
'Oh. you!" exclaimed Loean with ex
aggerated earnestness, "whv I wouldn't
even mention you in connection with such
a thing. Tt isn't necessary. You're like
Caesar's wife. You're above suspicion.
All officials are."
Councilman Wills on Stand.
Mr. Wills, the next most important wit
ness, was called for the announced' pur
pose of showing that Radding suggested
raiding Mayor Lane's office to compro
mise hlni with some woman, two months
before the occurrence which cansed the
trial. Mr. Wills, who is unfriendly to
Mayor T-ane personally and politically.
. did not get to testify until half an hour
had been consumed in objections and
arguments on the objections. Mr. Me
Garry. of the defense, insisted that the
Incident Wills would tell of occurred too
long previous to the alleged crime to
render It material. Malarkey replied to
this with a spirited argument which con
tinued until McGarry said he would
rather srtv un than have the case de
lved all afternoon.
Tt was during election time that he
got acquainted with Radding. Mr. Wills
said. He. and Thomas C TJev in were
discussing North Knd raids and favorit
ism that was being shown in these raids
when Radding suggested catching the
Mayor in a raid.
"Radding said the Mayor was the big
gest chaser in town,'.' the witness said.
"He told us that women were to be
seen coming up and down . from the
Mayor's office day and night and sug
gested it would be a good joke to raid
the Mayor's office some night and catch
him. Of course we didn't want anything
to do with such a plan.
"Now, since this case was started,
haven't you become interested in the
defense of these people, Mr. Wills?" in
quired Mr. Manning.
"No. sir," said the witness, coloring.
"Did you help furnish bail for Mrs.
Waymire?"
Will.s denied this, and Togan got up to
pay his compliments to Manning, saying
that such questions were the worst insult
he had ever heard heaped on a witness
at any trial in his experience.
"Well, Mr. Wills knows me. well enough
to know I .jrMn't mean to insult him in
any way," said Manning.
Cross-Examination of Mayor.
Mayor Lane's cross-examination occu
pied the tirst -part, of the forenoon ses
sion, and as .soon as he was excused he
left the courtroom and did not return.
Tie admitted that no demand had ever
been made on him by Mrs. Waymire or
Radding for either money or property.
When asked if his reputation had been
injured by . the episode, he said he sup
posed a certain class of people might
have believed the woman's story, bijt
mar none or nis iriends Deneved it ror a
singlo instant, lie said he had suffered
no great mental worry or inconvenience
through the episode.
Mr. Logan presently inquired if it was
not a fact that the whole police depart
ment had been .put at work delving into
Mrs. Waymire's past. Malarkey objected
and there was a quick exchange of short
arm legal jabs in which both said they
were willirwr to go to the bottom of the
reputations hold by 'their respective cli
ents. Tt is known that the state holds
considerable information concerning Mrs.
Waymire's life, conduct and habits previ
ous to her arrival In Portland. On the
other hand, the defense claims to have a
number of witnesses ready to testify re
garding the Mayor, should the question
of character bo taken up and allowed in
tha evidence. '
Four minor witnesses occupied the last
hour of the afternoon. The llrst of these,
Mrs. M. Carsner, conducts a rooming
house at 274 Columbia street, where Mrs.
Waymire lived from March to August of
last year. Mrs. Waymire worked for a
time at a laundry and then in the Hazel
wood restaurant as a waitress, the
witness . said. She frequently received
Radding at the house, and frequently was
out late at night. On one occasion. Mrs.
Carsner said, the telephone awakened
her at midnight. It was some one to in
quire for Mrs. Waymire. That lady was
out and the party on the line was told
as much.
"Some other fellow has got ahead of
me." Is the remark Mrs. Carsner accred
ited to the telephone visitor.
Says Mrs. Waymire Was Ladylike.
On cross-examination the witness said
Mrs. Waymire had always behaved her
self in a ladylike manner and that the
only thing against her was her popular
ity. . . ,
"For a woman that had been in Port
land such a. short time, I did think
she was mighty popular with the men,"
Mrs. Carsner ventured as she left the
witness-stand.
A. S. Hawk told of having rented a
house at 356 Fourteenth street to Mrs.
Waymire. It was here that the woman
kept house for Radding and one Bell, em
ploye of a jewelry store. The important
point brought out in Hawk's testimony
was that Mrs. Waymire spoke of having
a brother who would advise iier In regard
to the renting of the house.
Louise F. McDonald, Mayor Lane's pri
vate stenographer, was called to identify
the letter which the Mayor told her to
write for Mrs. Waymire. She said she
composed the letter herself and that it
was a letter of recommendation. On tha
night of the scuffle in Lane's office she
had been there on business and saw Man
delay In the hall. He walked up to her
while she was standing at the elevator;
looked at her closely, and walked away
again, she said.
Mrs. W. M. Bell testified that Radding
formerly roomed at her place on Twenty
third and Thurmaji streets. He . took
Mrs. Waymire to the house several times,
the first time introducing her as "my
sweetheart." Mrs. Waymire's conduct
was always exemplary on these visits,
witness said on cross-examination.
Her husband. W. M. Bell, the next wit
ness, substantiated what his wife said.
Logan at once proceeded to make capital,
of him, asking if It was not true that the
police had been calling on him frequently
concerning the case. Bell said that such
was the case and admitted that Patrol
man Ben Peterson used to drop in at the
Bell saloon and discuss the case.
"Was the officer in uniform when he
called?" Togan asked, and Bell replied
in. the affirmative.
"I understand it is against the law for
policemen to lourere in saloons, but I sup
pose Peterson knew he was safe in talk
ing about this case." Logan concluded.
Mrs. Waymire's Ire Aroused.
Peterson was the next witness, and his
testimony served to get Mrs. Waymire
raging mad, although she did not display
her feelings until court was over. Peter
son said he saw her sitting in W. M.
Pell's beer garden one afternoon. That
was all he knew about her. Mrs. Way
mire said it was a lie and that she will
so testify.
"So after cudgeling your brains, that is
the only thing you can figure out against
this woman?" Ixgan said, with burning
sarcasm In his tones.
"Yep; that's all," said Peterson. Ad
journment was then taken until today at
9:30 A. M.
Fairview Wants to Incorporate.
A petition for the incorporation of Fair
view has been filed with the County
Commissioners. It has the signatures of
4! residents of the town. Fairview now
has ISO residents. The Postoffice goes
under the name Cleone. '

A GROUP OF WITNESSES AT THE WA I'M IRE-R ADDING TRIAL.
DEHHES
OF WATER BOARD
Judge Cleland Rules on De
murrer in W. Y. Masters'
Test Case. ,
DECISION IS FOR PLAINTIFF
Court Holds That Either Flat or
Meter Rate May Be Collected,
but Xot Both From
the Same Person.
That the City of Portland has no
authority to charge any. one consumer
both a flat rate and a meter rate for
Bull Run water was" decided yesterday
by Judge Cleland, of the Circuit Court,
in his ruling on the demurrer to the
complaint filed by W. Y. Masters against
the city.
"There is no merit in the contention
that to install meters for only a small
minority of the consumers is discrim
ination," said the court. "It is entirely
competent for the city to attach meters
to some pipes and not to all, and the
city ought not to be deprived of the
revenues from any service pipe simply
because meters have not been installed
on them all.
"The plaintiff asserts that he was
charged a flat monthly rate of $3.75.
whether he used no water at all, or the
full amount allowed at that rate, and
that a meter was attached, so that if he
used more than is allowed under the
flat rate he Is charged with the excess
as shown by the meter. The defect in
this matter is that the city attempted
to charge the flat rate against this
plaintiff, and for all water used over
that to charge the meter rate. It is
entirely competent for the city to assess
against any person either a flat rate or
a meter rate, but it cannot charge both
rates against the same person at the
same time. If no water is used where a
meter is affixed, no charge should be
made."
Judge . Cleland also decided that there
is no state law to prohibit wholesale and
retail plumbers of the city from forming
a combine, and either refusing to sell
to unlicensed plumbers, or charging them
any price they may see fit. The matter
which called forth the court's decision
was the demurrer to the complaint of
M. E. Thompson against the Gault Com
pany. Jven if there were a law In this
regard, the court said. It would not fur
nish ground for refusal to enforce a
mechanic's Hen if the work had been
performed.
Municipal Judge Cameron must here
After pronounce judgment on persons
convicted by him, provided they demand
it, according to the decision of Judge
Cleland yesterday morning in the Burk
hart case. The court said he was aware
of the practices of the lower courts, and
sometimes of the Circuit Court, in sus
pending sentence, but ruled that it is
not warranted by law. H. G. Burk
hart has a $10,000 damage suit against
Officer Sultter pending in the Federal
Court. The lower court convicted him
of resisting the officer but refused to
sentence him.
Because of a flaw in the instructions
of Judge Frazer to the jury in the suit
of James J. Brown against the Pacific
States Telephone & Telegraph Company
to recover $15,000 for alleged injuries sus
tained when he fell over a telephone pole
at Sixth and Flanders streets, the case
must he tried again. The Jury awarded
$3750 last September. -
ANSWER CRIMINAL- CHARGES
Defendants Arraigned Before Judge
Cleland in Circuit Court.
George Frank and Antone Shupcs,
charged with stealing $52 worth of jew
elry and clothing belonging to George
Well from a dwelling at 207'-i Third streei.
on February 10, were arraigned before
Judge Cleland, of the' Circuit Court, yes
terday afternoon and pleaded not guilty.
The case was set for trial April 9.
Oscar Roe pleaded guilty yesterday to a
charge of obtaining money under false
pretenses. He Is to be sentenced Friday.
Roe forged a check for $9.45 and on Jan
uary 3 obtained $8 on it from S. W. Lud
wig. Hans Nelson will be tried April 7 on a
charge of contributing to the delinquency
of a 10-year-old child. He pleaded not
guilty.
King Baker and Adolph Johnson have
refused to pay the $29 costs of a suit
brought by thn state against them and
tried months ago before Judge Scars,. It
appears that they cannot be compelled to
do so, although the judgment was against
them and they must pay a $'0 nne. The
case was prosecuted by Deputy District
Attorney Aloser. but he did. not file a cost
bill. The caso was "taken to the Supreme
Court, which affirmed the judgment of
the lower court. Deputy District Attor
ney Haney brought the matter up before
Judge Cleland yesterday, who decided
that if the defendants were not taxed at
the time of trial they could not be com
pelled to make payment now.
Employer Shifts Blame.
That the death of William F. Fetting.
who was killed by the elevator in the
Abington building, was dtie wholly to his
carelessness In not making his footing se
cure on the roof of the, elevator. Is the
allegation of Martin Wincli in his answer
to the suit for damages lodged against
him in the Circuit Court by Margaret Fet
ting. administrator of the estate of the
deceased. It appears that Fetting was
cleaning the walls of the elevator shaft
on June. 30. last year, and the answer
says that when he gave the signal to
move the cage it was started the wrong
way. and that it was fright that caused
his fall.
Cites Mrs. Failing to Appear.
A petition has been filed with the Coun
ty Court asking that it require Mrs. X.
J. Failing, the sister of Cornelius W. Bar
rett, to support her brother, who is al
leged to be infirm both in body and mind.
According to the petition the sister is well
able to do so, as she owns property worth
$500,000. and receives therefrom a monthly
rental of $1500. It is alleged that al-
though Barrett has been in his present
condition for five years, and has repeated
ly requested his sister to help him, she
has continually refused to do so. He has
never been married, and is now a public
charge. It is said. Judge Webster has
ordered Mrs. Failing to appear In court at
10 o'clock on the morning of February 26,
to show cause why the petition should not
be granted.
Cases Taken Under Advisement.
Judge Bronaugh of the Circuit Court
took under advisement yesterday the suit
of Jake Andrew against the Portland
Wire & Iron Works to recover $2208 dam
ages for injuries sustained in a fall, said
to have been caused by negligence on the

Judge Bronaugh also took under advise
ment the suit of Lavinia Ions Billings
against Mary E. Huff, in which she asks
for the appointment of one or more ref
erees to sell lots & and 6. block 2, Fair

Out for the grand unique "rose-planting"
event next Saturday afternoon.
President Whttemore Is endeavoring
to get no fewer than 100 autos out
for the big demonstration, and re
quests every Portland citizen who has
a motor car available on Warning-ton's
birthday to have It ready for this
novel civic demonstration.'
Special committees are working on
this matter and auto owners with
big "green dragone" or little "red
devils'" will be asked to "honk-honk"
into line ajid attend the children who
will bear the roses to the Plaza
blocks. The autos should assemble
at tke FestK-al headquarters. Swetland
building, and at the City Hall, at 1
P. M. Saturday. The Mayor, the City
Council, the Park Board and the
6obool Board, with the rose-planting
committee, are to have their special
autos for the event.
Many leading citizens", business and pro
fessional men will lay aside .their duties
this afternoon and talk "roses," "rose
planting" and "Rose Festival" to the
many thousands of" school children of
Portland. The Board of Education has
notified the principals of the schools, both
the high schools and public schools, that
these .speakers would be on hand at 2
o'clock this afternoon and tell them brief
ly just what the week's celebration is to
be, this coming June, and to arouse their
interest and enthusiasm in the novel
civic demonstration, the "Midwinter rose
planting" event, on Washington's birth
day, to he held next Saturday afternoon.
The attention of the little boys and
girls is to be called to the great success
which marked the children's pageant
which was run off the first day of the
first annual carnival, last June, and the
youngsters are to be thanked and" lauded
for the showing they were able to make
with but three weeks of preparation for
their drills and maneuvers. They will be
urged to attend the planting exercises
next Saturday, to arrange for full repre
sentation in the "rosebud" parade, which
will welcome "Queen Flora" to the city
next June, and to give Portland the most
magnificent and spectacular demonstra
tion of that character that has ever been
attempted in the Pacific Northwest
At most of the schools there will be
two speakers to address the boys and
girls simultaneously, and the time limit
of these talks is to be fixed at from 10
to 15 minutes. The principals of the
schools where the speeches will be made
hav been notified to have the pupils as
sembled in one room at 2 o'clock, and It
will be up to the speakers to enlist the
co-operation of the boys and' girls In the
Festival. ,
The 3000 rose bushes that are to be set
out in the three park blocks are already
in the hands of the planting committee,
and all that remains to be done is to see
that the school children .turn out in num
bers large enough to. deliver the shrubs
at the different blocks. What the special
committee hopes for is that at least 5000
boys and girls will offer their services on
Saturday, which is born a school holiday
and Washington's birthday, so that each
one may carry a bush from the central
point to the Plaza. At the park blocks
city gardeners will receive the rose
bushes and plant as many of them as
they have time, and the full Third Regi
ment. O. N. G., with the regimental band,
together with Battery A, Light Artillery,
will act as military escort for the plant
ers. One of the most impressive features of
the rose-planting event is the fact that
Archbishop Christie has promised to bless
the rose-planting event, adding both form
and solemnity to the occasion. -
Every citizen who can leave his labors1
for that afternoon is urged to do his
share in making this striking incident in
Portland's career the most notable oc
casion of its kind ever attempted any
where on the Pacific Slope. With weather
conditions favorable, it Is bound to be a
signal triumph for Portland ingenuity
and enterprise.
LICENSE IS NOT NEEDED
Important Decision of Judge Mc
Bride Regarding Solicitors.
ASTORIA, Or., Feb. 19. (Special.) A
suit was decided In the Circuit Court here
today that concerns every city In the
state. It was the case of the city of As
toria against C. W. Cottam, an appeal
from the police court, and a verdict was
rendered by the jury in favor of the de
fendant under instructions from the court.
The defendant, who is a solicitor for a
Chicago shirt factory, had been convicted
and fined in the police court on a charge
of soliciting without having a license, in
violation of the city ordinances. Judge
McBride in rendering his decision today,
said that under the Constitution of the
United States, an ordinance imposing a
license on solicitors is inoperative so far
as Its application to persons soliciting or
ders for a non-resident manufacturer for
goods to be shipped direct to the con
sumer is concerned, as it would impose a
tax on Interstate commerce, which must
be free. The court said, he did not see
any good .reason for this, however, out
side of the fact that the United States
Supreme Court has so held and that body
Is the tribunal of final appeal.
POLICEMAN IS REBUKED
Jury Refuses to Convict Saloonman
on His Testimony.
To be charged with permitting a minor
in his saloon, to admit the truth of the
charge on the witness stand, and then to
be discharged as not guilty by a Jury" in
the Municipal Court was the experience
of Charles Dahl, proprietor of Ye Old
Inn, a saloon ' on Alder street, near Sec
ond, yesterday afternoon. Dahl was ar
rested about a week ago by Patrolman
Fuller, who entered the saloon disguised
as a soldier of the United States Army

and finding C. E. Kramer, a 19-year-old
youth In the place, arrested the proprietor.
The original hearing of the ease was
postponed last week because the saloon
man asked a Jury trial, and yesterday
afternoon the case, was heard before the
following Jurors: George H. Kaiser. J.
H. Page, C. F. Johnson, John Gibson,
Emil Vohl and J. E. Wallace. All the
testimony introduced tended to show that
Dahl had permitted the Kramer lad to
loiter In his place and knew the boy's age.
This was practically admitted by the ac
cused but the jury, seemingly, overlooked
this and rendered a verdict of not guilty.
It is presumed that this verdict was
reached because of the means used by
the police in making the arrest, for the
attorney for the defense severely grilled
the officer who assumed the uniform of
the United States Army to further his
petty police work.
Wife Snes for Maintenance.
Mrs. Luella Parrish has filed in the Cir
cuit Court an amended complaint In the
suit brought toy her against Edward K.
Parrish, and asks $40 a month for her
maintenance. The complaint avers thatd
A good liniment or plaster, or some good home remedy will usually
give temporary relief from the pain of Rheumatism, but the disease is more
than skin deep and cannot be rubbed away, nor can it be drawn out with a
plaster. Such, treatment neither prevents nor cures; the exces3 of acid,
which produces Rheumatism, is still in the blood and the disease can never
be cured while the circulation remains saturated with this irritating;, paia
producing uric acid poison. The trouble will shift from place to place, set
tling on the nerves and causing pain and inflammation at every exposure or
after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. When neglected or
improperly treated, Rheumatism becomes chronic and does not depend upon
climatic conditions to bring on an attack, but remains a constant, painful
trouble. S. S. S. drives out Rheumatism by neutralizing and expelling the
excess of acid from the blood. It purifies and invigorates the circulation so
that instead of an acid-laden stream, constantly depositing uric acid in the
joints, muscles, nerves and bones, the entire system is nourished and made
healthy by rich, life-giving blood. Book on Rheumatism and any medical
advice desired will be sent free to all who write.
