THE MORNING OREGOXTAN. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1905. 13 FACES CHARGE OF NS IT Executive Board May Not Ac cept Captain Bruin's Resignation. IN LINE FOR DISMISSAL Humor That Seems Well Founded la That Police Inspector Will Be Punished for Assail ing Ills Superiors. FatricJc Bruin, Captain of Detectives and Inspector of Police, may be dismissed frftm the, Pnlinn rfrtnjf ment for Criticism of Oils superiors. To all intents and pur poses Captain Bruin does not belong to the Department. In reality he does. Hla resignation not only has not been ac cepted, but there is a likelihood that It will not be acted upon favorably. "I resign, said resignation to take effect immediately." the officer said, depositing a written statement at the police station late Wednesday night. He then prepared a column statement for publication, de tailing his grievances against Mayor Lane and the Police Committee of the Execu tive Board. In his statement Bruin ac cused Mayor Lane. T. G. Greene and R. W. Montague of insincerity In the so called reform policies of the present ad ministration. He said favoritism was being shown among North Bind lawbreak ers and that Chinese gambling was a sub ject of discrimination. Asserting that he had been sincere in his endeavors to enforce the law. Bruin protested that his honest efforts In that direction had involved him in endless dif ficulties and marked disfavor -with the powers-that-be. Such was the motive that led his assignment to command of the second night relief, where he would be practically isolated, he said. Violates Department Rule. All the time he was saying these things he was violating a strictly enforced rule of the department. "Thou shalt not crit icise thy superiors or any of the acts thereof." It is one of the ten command ments of the department. And so it was pointed out in an authoritlve source yes terday. Bruin Is still amenable to the rules of the department. He cannot be thrown in jail or sentenced to death for lese majeste because of say ing the things he did about Lane. Greene and (Montague. But he can be made to suffer such punishment as the code pre scribes. For example, he can be dis missed dishonorably for the good of the service, and It was intimated yesterday by one directly in a position to know that such would be Bruin's fate. Under the civil service regulations. Bruin's resignation must be accepted by the Executive Board before It can become effective. Two are required to make the bargain. Being under bond as an officer Bruin could not hand In his star and say he was "through." And if the Executive Board decides not to accept ills resigna tion, but to prefer charges against him, V.M.liIII .OrUIIi Will UclYt? 1(1 SlilllU Lll&l. Mayor, Lane and Mr. . Greene declined to make any reply to Bruin's charges yes terday, as the officer expected.. Mr. Mon tague was out of the city and could not be seen. The Mayor laughed about the charges and said he really hadn't had time to look through them as yet. "But there's nothing I'll want to say about them," he . added. "I haven't time to notice such things." Greene Says Nothing. Mr. Greene was equally noncommittal, but his attitude made It plain that he considered the Bruin statements un worthy of his attention, saying they were nothing but malicious generalities which would not hold water. Captain Bruin did not see fit to give a second chapter of his troubles last night. He said he would await reply to his pre vious broadsides, in which event he will probably wait for some considerable time. He claims to have a mass of details- con necting up the city administration leaders with shady deals and insincerity, but chooses to withhold these facts for tho timo being. Ills sudden resignation caused much sur prise in the police department yesterday, as well as in the city at large. Varied views were taken of his stand, many In dorsing his attitude, while others de clared he was guilty of ingratitude In at tacking tho men who gave him his posi tion and tought with him when his of ficial head was sought through the courts. Mr. Greene and Mr. Montague represented him in the Circuit Court when the valid ity of his appointment was contested, and although they devoted considerable time and energy to the case it is paid they received no monetary consideration. Tho matter of promotion to fill the va cancy which will be jaused when Bruin's resignation is acted upon is a matter of much speculation among members of the department. It Is likely that Captain George H. Balloy will be detailed to the place and that Sergeant Baty will bo elevated to a Captaincy and placed in command of the second night relief. Or Baty may even nil Bruin's place. Iiost Nothing in Rank. There is no difference In rank at either post and, in fact. Bruin was not degraded in rank. There is no such position as captain of detectives or inspector of po lice. An officer of the rank of Captain is detailed to this service, which corresponds to a staff position in the army. Bruin could have taken the second night relief, as directed, without losing anything In remuneration or rank. There are those who will contend that a relief Captain ranks an officer detailed as Captain of Detectives, even as a line officer feels himself somewhat superior to a staff of ficer in the army service. Chit-Chat o! Sporting World BY WILL Q. MAC KAE. THriBE seems to be something screwy about that $4000 forfeit that Tommy Burns haa posted in London for a fight with Jack Johnson. America is the nat ural battle-ground for these pugs, and surely tho pair would fight to a bigger gate on this side of the drink. VC"hat'r the frame-up?" i, Claud Berry, the Philadelphia Ameri can League catcher, signed by the Seals, has written Danny Long that his contract is satisfactory. Ha will oon start for San Francisco. Bill Squires, the Australian wheeze who did not win a tight in this country, is in Paris. Bill carried away with him XX). 000 in American money, which goes to prove that a loser is sometimes a win ner. A McKeesport, Pa., man f hs other day tore up his money and thew It to' the winds. He must have harvested hla coin in some fake prise fight that Jack the Confessor helped frame up. San Francisco fight fans are going to get a chance to see the much-talked-of Packy McFarland In action. He will be matched to fight the winner of the Brltt NelBon bout. McFarland, it seeems, hasn't any scruples against kicking a few dead ones out of his way during his upward march to a championship. x In "Washington, D. C, they are going to put a tax on cats. Won't this make the feline fancier element of the feminine sporting world get real peevish? There is one way to keep baseball play ers and prize fighters from drinking. Just put something in their booze that will make them candidates for the under taker's solicitation. "Hen iBerry now has a full team," says a Los Angeles paper. If the team will stay "full" all season it will help Mc Credie's chanoes of grabbing the P. C. P. WILL PLAY WITH WHITE SOX JIanager McCredie Arranges for Two Games in South. The Portland baseball team will play two games with the crack Chicago Amer ican Leaguers at Santa Barbara, the dates being March 11 and 12. The final details of this arrangement were perfected yes terday, when Manager McCredie was noti fied that the White Sox were ready to sign the agreement. The Portland manager is highly pleased over getting these early games with Chi cago, for it will not only be an excellent workout for the . Portland players, but will assist the club financially, as the fans of Santa Barbara and vicinity are said to be extremely anxious to see the two teams in action. The Chicago Americans are already on their way to California and with them are traveling two of McCredie's recruits, Malloy and "Walsh, both of whom live in Chicago and who were allowed to accom pany the Comlskey outfit as a courtesy to the Portland management. The ac commodating of these two players by the Chicago club was welcome news to Mc Credie, for it Insures them a chance to practice on the way out and also that they will be well taken care of by the big leaguers. Most of the "White Sox are acquainted with the youngsters and will give the two Portland players some val uable pointers. In addition, they will have an opportunity to participate in several games with the "Yannlgans," or second team, which Is to play a series of games in Arizona and other places be fore reaching Los Angeles. Ed Plnance, the Chippewa Indian twlrl er secured by McCredie, has been sent his transportation and is probably now on his way from Michigan, where he lives, to California. The only player- who has not yet taken up his transportation is Ryan, but Man ager McCredie is not worrying over his failure to do so, for he has been informed that the player is enjoying an outing in the woods. Ryan is expected to report at Santa Barbara within a week after the manager reaches his training quarters. PLAY SEATTLE MEN" TONIGHT Lively Basketball Game Promised at Y. M. C. A. The Portland Y. M. C. A. basketball five, who will play the Seattle team to night, feel that their reputation is slightly tarnished, after the unlucky encounter with Multnomah, in which they finished six points to the bad. Every member of the team can now be seen almost any hour of the day practicing basket-tossing in order that there shall be no question of the kind of drubbing tho Seattle men are to receive whether they bring the "Seattle spirit" with them or not. The game will be played on the association floor. As the Seattle men were well in the running for the Y. M. C A. pennant, the game will likely be as exciting as the contest when the Canadians played here several weeks ago. The Seattleltes van quished the Portland men on their home floor by 22 to 20 points, and Manager Young predicts that the result will be reversed tonight. The Y. M. C. A. directorate has not yet found a referee, but has hopes of persuad ing W. C. Moore to do the whistle blow ing. A preliminary game will ibe played be tween the Y. M. C A. second and a team from Vancouver, "Wash. Johnson Will Fight Burns. NSW 'YORK. Feb. 27. "Jack" Johnson, the colored heavyweight pugilist, will ac cept the offer o a syndicate of British sportsmen for a match with "Tommy" Burns in England-. "If Bums can beat me I am willing to quit the game," Johnson is quoted as saying. "Any number of rounds will suit me, from one to a thousand. In fact, now that I have made up my mind to accept. Burns may name the terms." Call for Distance Runners. Manager Dan Bellinger of the distance runners of the Multnomah Amateur Ath letic Club's track team, has issued a call for a meeting of the youngsters who are to try out for these events for tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. All the younger members of the club who are desirous of engaging In this branch of sport are requested to be on hand at the appointed time, for a preliminary run is to be held and various phases of the game discussed.

RECHECK BAGGAGE HERE Extra Fare Required on Through Tickets to Puget Sound Points. OLYMPIA, Wash.. Feb. 27.(9pecial.) By a new ruling of the Interstate Com merce Commission, word of which has just reached the State Railroad Commis sion, railroads will no longer be able to receive and check baggage over lines w'ith which they have no baggage carrying agreement. The State Commission some time ago filed a formal complaint with the Interstate Commission in regard to this matter. Numerous complaints were made to the Commission that the O. R. & N. was receiving and checking baggage through from points along their lines to Puget Sound, coming over the Northern Pacific from Portland. The O. R. & N. has no baggage agreement with the Northern Pacific and this road refused to take up the baggage until it had been rechecked over their road from Portland. Many travelers would arrive at Puget Sound points and And that their baggage had been refused at Portland. This decision by the Interstate Com merce Commission has already been pub lished in The Oregontan. Its effect is that travelers must recheck their baggage E- ESPECIAMS- VALUED BT THE ELDERLY PEOPLE HERE. Prescription for Rheumatism and Kidneys Said to Relieve Near ly AH Cases). A large New York: health publication full.. , AaWaa ! . 1 and safe prescriptions that can be made at home. The following, how 1 ever, for the cure of rheumatism and kidney and bladder troubles receives j the greatest praise, viz.. Fluid Extract ioiiuejiua, uae'U&u uunce; uompouna JCargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. These sim ple, harmless ingredients can be ob tained at any good prescription phar macy at little cost and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle. The dose for adults is a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime, drink ing a full tumblerful of water after each dose. It is further stated that this prescription is a positive remedy for kidney trouble and lame back, weak bladder and urinary difficulties, espe cially of the elderly, people, and one of the best things to be used in rheu matic afflictions, relieving the aches and pains and reducing swellings. A well-known local druggist states that this mixture acts directly upon the ellminative tissues of the kidneys; cleanses these spongelike organs and gives them power to sift and strain the poisonous waste matter and uric acid from the blood which Is the cause of rheumatism. Cut this out and hand to some suf ferer which would certainly be an act of humanity. at Portland for Puget Sound points, since the Commission does not allow the Kar ri man lines to sell through tickets to Puget Sound via the Huntington gateway unless the local rate from Portland to the Sound ibe added to the price of the ticket. This gives the Hill lines the long haul from the East. The Hill lines would not concur in the agreement to sell tick ets via Portland . to Puget Sound. The effect of this. It is said, will be to divert travel to Puget Bound to the Hill lines Instead of through Portland. STOPS SUICIDE; IS KILLED Adams County Farmer Grapples With Friend and Meets Death. SPOKANE, Wash., Feb. 27. (Special.) Frank Sherman, a farmer living about four miles from Othello, Adams County, was killed this morning by E. A. Sper ling, who, with his wife, lived with Sher man. H. W. Kraus. a business man of Othello, says that he and Dr. Judah, rail road surgeon, went to the Sherman, place in response to a call. They found Sher man lying on the ground in a pool of blood between the house and the stable. Sperling said that he and his wife had been quarreling and that he had left the house, taking the shotgun, intending to kill himself. Sherman, who was in the stable, came out and tried to take the gun away from him. In the struggle Sperling says the weapon was discharged and Sherman was killed. The Sperlings have been living with Sherman, who is a widower, for about a year. Sherman brought them to Washington from Min nesota, paying their fare. MANY CHANGES IN SCHOOLS Superintendents Favor Special Teaching . lor Immigrants. WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.

A young lady in Minn, writes of her experience: "After a disheartening struggle for five years against the ills attendant on malasslmilation of food, I am at last on the high road to recovery and feel impelled to give credit where it is due. "Some years ago I had a long illness due to stomach trouble. Every meal I ate caused me either excruciating pain or a dull heavy misery that was even worse. I weighed but 90 lbs., .was al most hopeless as I found that a poorly nourished body means lack of brain power and ambition. "I was always ravenously hungry and while I could not eat the appetiz ing dishes on the table, I longed for them. That longing is what prompted me to try Grape-Nuts. The food had a flavour that I liked rich without being heavy. "I left off my dally laxative as I found I did not need it for Grape-Nuts was so easily digested, constipation soon disappeared. I found, too, that I did not grow- tired of Grape-Nuts and continued to eat it. "It forms my breakfast exclusively and I also eat it with eggs and fruit for my other meals. I have gained li pounds in less than a year and that is nothing compared with my gain in strength and courage. "I can now eat a hearty meal which satisfies my appetite and it does not leave me. as formerly, feeling as thoughed I had dined on tacks." "There's a reason." Name given by Postum Co..
