Councilman Coneannon. who had previous
ly stood, with Councilman Cottel and oth
ers who opposed the measure, said he
would second the motion. He is now on
record as favorable to the passage of the
amended ordinance.
Because of the strong opposition of
Councilman Cottel, and the fact that some
of the other members of the Council have
expressed themselves against the ordi
nance, it is certain that there will be a
fight on the measure when it comes up
in the Council next Wednesday.

GRANTS A FULL HEARING
I tends and Foes of Franchise Arc
Akrd by SchwartzshHd A Sulz
berger Give Their View.
Keport to Be Favorable.
With the stipulation that Schwartzschild
Sulzberger people shall spend not less
than $3.O0O on their 'proposed parkins
house In South Portland, exclusive of the
purchase price of the ground, within two
year, the committee on health and police
yesterday afternoon unanimously voted to
recommend that the City Council pass
the ordinance granting; to the independent
itrm a franchise to operate a modern
plant Inside the corporate limit. -The
measure wm amended to make it obliga
tory upon the part of the applicants to
rxptnd the sum named, or the permit is
to be revoked. The ordinance will come
before, the Council next Wednesday at
T P. M., and a fierce battle between those
favoring and those opposing; It will prob
ably follow. s
That the committee's report will be
adopted and the measure passed, is the
general prediction, although Councilman
Cottel, of the Fifth Ward, declares he
will continue his fight against it, and
he emphatically ex ct aimed yesterday that
'"any man who votes for the ordinance
is a buzzard."
Morning and afternoon sessions of the
vimmittee on health and police, consist
ing of Councilmen Concannon. Annand
and Wills, were held and every person,
for or aqainst the packing-house scheme
was given an opportunity to be heard.
Many took advantage of this, and ex
pressed their sentiments. Those favoring
the location of the independent packing
house on the site proposed, were largely
in the majority. Councilman Belding. in
whose ward the plant is sought to be
established, presented three petitions,
nearly all the signers being owners of
property in the Immediate vicinity of the
proposed site. About 300 names were en
rolled. Petitions with perhaps 50 signa
tures, were presented by those opposed to
the passage of the ordinance.
Manager Ileisy Talks.
J. W. Heisy, Pacific Coast manager for
ch wartRschlld A Sulzberger, was present
and undertook to make clear the atti
tude of his principal on all matters un
dor discusHion. and when pressed for a
definite statement as to the size and
kind of a plant to be Installed, said that
when completed. It would be as first
stated in The Orefconlan a tl .600,000 es
tablishment. He further said ft would
he. modern in every respect, thorougrly
sanitary and inoffensive to the commun
ity. The rirmor that L. Zimmerman, present
owner of a small packing house on the
site wanted by the large Independent
company. Is behind the effort to secure
the passage of the ordinance, was de
nied toy Mr. Heisy, when Lawyer John
T Logan. Milton W. Smith, Councilman
Cottel and others expressed their be
lief that such Is the case.
Councilman Cottel, who baa from the
outset opposed the proposition, chal
lenged Mr. Hetey to commit himself as to
the financial o oil ay the Independent com
pany would make, and declared that. If
Mr. Heisy would agree to bind Ms firm
to the expenditure of not less than $1G0,
000, his own opposition would cease, pro
vided the plant would be sanitary. Now
that Mr. Heisy baa agreed to spend 1200.
ooo within two years, however, Mr. Cottel
declares that he will continue the fight
and that he. will even .nvoke the refer
endum. His only qualification of his
statement is that he will abide by the
decision of the people.
Basis of Opposition.
All opposition to the proposed packing-house
was hawed on the slaughter
ing of animals within the city limits, on
the fear of unsanitary conditions abound
ing, on the placing of such a plant In the
south end of the city with another one al
ready being established on the Penin
sula and on apparent doubts as to the
cood faith of the independent company.
To all of these objections, set forth by
attorneys representing clients In the
south end of Portland, and by some own
ers of property. Mr. Heisy replied that he
was surprised that the people here should
question the good faith of Schwartzschild
& Sulzberger.
"I have been surprised." satd Mr. Hisy,
'nt the attitude of some of the people of
this city in regard to our proposition. The
company is one of the richest and most
Influential In the world, and makes here
a definite promise to erect this packing
house, one that will be modern in every
respect, and still- some doubt our good
faith. I tell you that this company is
not coming here with eiedge-hammers to
batter down the doors to enter Portland:
1t asks only a fair thing a chance to
build and operate in your city: an oppor
tunity to do business is all that is aougiit.
"1 will say very frankly that there !s
no truth in the rumor that we are work
ing in the Interests of Mr. Zimmerman:
we are not, but we are working for busi
ness, like any company would do. AM
in the wortd there is between us is that
we hold an option on Mr. Zimmerman's
property.
Talks Tor the Chamber.
3. H. Gruber presented resolutions from
the Chamber of Commerce, adopting the
report of a committee of which he was
the chairman, which opposed the estab
lishment of the proposed plant In South
Portland. In a lengthy speech, Mr.
timber said that the Chamber of Com
merce would like to see the packing
house come here, but it is opposed to
.Cowing it to go In on the site named,
because the memboi think all such en
terprises should operate in the north end
of the city, where Swift & Co. have de
rided to build a big plant. In other
words, he said the Chamber of Commerce
wants the packing industry here, but
wants H confined to one district.
Councilman Feld'mg replied, saying that
this report sounded like all reports from
the Chamber of Commerce on every pro
posed industry thrjt has ever sought ad
mission to Portland. He declared that the
organisation represented by Mr. CSruber
hud always opposed anything and every
body who sought to get into business in
Portland, and he declared that It looked to
him as if somebody in the membership
of the Chamber of Commerce had a aite
tor sale on the Peninsula. He concluded
by saying that he thought It would be far
better for the members of the Chamber
of Commerce to try to get better facilities
for South Portland, such as better rail
connections, a deeper ship channel and
other needed Improvements, rather than
to continually oppose everything deal red
by the people of the south end of the city.
After a full discussion. Councilman An
nand moved to amend the ordinance. In

upon the company to expend $J00,a with

BT LILLIAN TINGLE.
STRAWBERRIES have made their
appearance in the markets during
the past week. It la true that
they are as yet only pale promises of
the luscious berries we shall all revel
In later, and they cost 60 cents a box;
but still they ore a welcome Bight to
the housekeeper. Another welcome
sight fs to be found In the boxes containing-
healthy roots of nice green
cilves. These roots cost 20 to 23
cents each and can be set In a flower
pot and encouraged to grow on the
kitchen window ledge, where they may
be clipped as required to give a sav
ory touch to sauces, green salads, cro
quettes, mashed potatoes, or broth.
Finely cut chives sprinkled over
spaghetti or macaroni preparations
are liked by many. I wish some en
terprising market-man would offer In
the same way convenient roots of
tarragon and chervil.
Asparagus is cheaper and more plen
tiful, costing 15 to 30 cents a pound.
There was fresh Oregon spinach at
12 Vi cents a pound that looked par
ticularly good, and nice green peas
at 20 cents a pound. Radishes, both
the ordinary red and the black kind;
green onions, endive, dandelion, cab
bage greens, kail and watercress were
all good; and there is new California
head lettuce at 1.1 cents each. Theie
is nice fresh 'mint, too, for those that
appreciate the charms of mint-apple
sauce, mint jelly, mint-grapes or plain
mint auce with certain kinds of meat.
Hot-house cucumbers cost 25 to 36
cents each: new Bermuda potatoes 10
cents a pound; tomatoes 20 to 30 cents
a pound, and egg plant 30 cents a
pound. Rhubarb is good at 10 cents a
pound.
It is the close season for lobsters
just now. so that only a few cold stor
age ones were seen; but crawfish are
In aain- and cost 40 cents a dozen,
cooked in wine.
I saw some empty crab shells from
the Kast for the serving of correct
looking deviled crabs. The shells cost
$1 to $1.25 a dozen, and you get plain
local crabs at 15 to 20 cents each to
supply the necessary filling. Owing
probably to recent high winds, the fish
supply yesterday was not so plentiful
or varied as it has been, especially in
regard to small fish.
I saw some fine sturgeon at 20 cents
a pound and Chinook salmon at the
same price. Pteelhead salmon was 15
cents and halibut 124 cents a pound.
California had. black cod, rock cod
and catfish were 15 cents. Perch and
halibut 12 V4 cents and smelt and her
ring 10 cents a pound.
Turkeys are Inclined to be scarce
and cost 25 to 30 cents a pound.
Squahs are lather scarce, too, though
lower in price than last week, costing
75 cents instead of $1 a pair. Oregon
broilers are coming in at 75 cents each.
Chickens are 20 to 25 cents a pounds
ducks 30 cents and geese 20 cents. Ask
your German friends if you want to
know the largest variety of ways for
cooking and serving goose, lnciuding
the famous dish of "goose stuffed
with sauer-kraut." which is said to be
a real help in the acquiring, of a
proper German accent.
DEMAND NEW BUILDING
Mothers Object to Condition or Wil-Hams-Avenue
Schoolhouse.
At a meeting of Circle No. 10, of, the
Home Training Association, held yester
day afternoon in the Williams-avenue
schoolhouse. resolutions were adopted de
claring it the sense of the circle that the
Williams-avenue schoolhouse had out
lived its days of usefulness, and should
be abandoned and a new structure built
on the new site acquired on Rodney
avenue and Knott street. Principal
Downs talked briefly to the circle and
referred to the condition of the building
and called attention to the constant roar
and noise of passing streetcars on Wil
liams avenue and Kusscll street, which
he said, interferred at all times with class
work in the rooms facing .those streets.
Mr. Downs informed the women of t.ie
circle that he had given them the use
of the room on the William avenue side of
the building so they could appreciate the
difficulties under which the teachers In
that part of the schoolhouse are con
stantly laboring. He said when there is
a storm the roof leaks badly and re
marked he had counted 39 leaks. Mr.
Downs also pointed out the danger to the
lives of children from streetcars which
are passing every few minutes.
It was moved and carried that a com
mittee be appointed to bring the matter
of a new schoolhouse on Rodney avenue
before the North Kast Side Improvement
Association at once. Mrs. L. T. Perry
and Mrs. Glisan were appointed on the
committee.
The Board of Education purchased
ground for a new school building on Rod
ney avenue and Knott street some time
ago, bi nothing has been done toward
the erection of a new schoolhouse. An
attempt has been mane to sell the
block on which the Williams-avenue
schoolhouse stands, but it has not been
disposed of. It is supposed that it will
bring nearly enough money to put up a
new schoolhouse. It is valuable busi
ness property.
The circle also passed a resolution con
demning the high steps of the streetcars,
and the secretary was instructed to send
a communication to the managements of
the railway company asking that the
steps be lowered.
Dr. H. V. Kiel cave an Instructive talk
to the circle on the "Care of the Kye
and Throat." Dr. KeH pointed out the
danger of injury to the eyes of chil
dren from improper light. He also
answered many questions as to the proper
care of the eyes and throat. The meet
ing was largely attended.

ning, at 414 East Alder street.
Mrs. Lule E. Thomas Says Spouse
Beat Her and Pulled Her Hair.
Wife or 17 Is Among
the Plaintiffs.
Mrs. Lulu B. Thomas testified yester
day morning in a suit before Judge Cle
land, in the Circuit Court, to ob
tain a divorce, that her husband,
Abraham B. Thomas, twisted her nose
until the skin peeled off. and that he beat
her and pulled her hair. When further
questioned regarding her husband's con
duct, she said that her 4-year-old son
stood up for her once, saying:. "If I were
a big man I would not let you beat my
mother that way." As a result, she said,
Thomas knocked the little fellaw against
the wall.
The court records showed that Thomas,
who is a streetcar man, once pleaded
guilty to assault and battery oh bis wife.
The coupie were married at Cheyenne,
Wyo., in May. 1901. The decree of di
vorce was granted by default.
Mrs. Jennie Marriman obtained a di
vorce from Victor Marriman yesterday on
the ground of non-support. She said her
husband earned only $6 a week at the
most, although he was capable of earn
ing more. As this amount was not suffi
cient to keep the family, she said she was
compelled to go to work. Once, she said,
when they lived in Southern Oregon, they
were compelled to live in a barn for two
months. She said she was at last forced
to l.ave her husband, in December, 1907.
The couple married in Belgium In July,
190i
Bertha Johnston. 17 years old, secured
a divorce from Harry Johnston. She told
of her husband's affection for one "Kate"
and produced letters which she had found
in his trunk. She said her husband ad
mitted that he and Kate intended to go to
Alaska. The Johnstons recently told their
troubles in the County Court before Judge
Webster, who ordered Johnston to pay his
wife $30 a month. Johnston is said to
have left town shortly afterward. Mrs.
Johnston said her husband often left her
for days and weeks at. a time, and that
his favorite threat was that she would
get her "needing." The couple married
at Vancouver, Wash., in July, 1906.
Howard L. Rankin secured a divorce
from Reina De L. Rankin on the ground
of desertion. They married at Oakland,
Cal.. in December, 1904.

SHERIFF STIMj IX DARK
Jury Gives Him No Verdict in Erick-
son Case.
The trial before a Sheriff's jury to
determine the ownership of the Krickson
saloon resulted yesterday in a disagree
ment ot the jurors, and they were dis
charged. Sheriff Stevens continues to
hold the property, which was attached
on account of a judgment given Mrs.
Frances Fritz in the Circuit Court for
J2955 damages. Regarding the Hugo Fritz
Company, which alleges that It owns the
Erickson saloon, at Second and Burn-
side streets, E. A. Clark, attorney for
Mrs. Frances Fritz, said yesterday in his
closing argument before the jury;
"These men have been trying to let
tTitz . conduct a species of .frenzied
finance, contracting bills, all over the city
on the strength of his ownership of the
saloon, and then when they get ready and
want to get out from under Fritz' liabil
ities, they come here and say that Fritz
owns nothing in the saloon that it be
longs to them!
"This is an unusual proceeding, espe
cially since this corpoi'ation,' if it owns
that saloon, has recourse to the courts
at. all times. But Mrs. Frances Fritz is
held at the bed of her sick child in Cal
ifornia and cannot get away to protect
her interests here. This is a good time
for this corporation to rush in by this
unusual proceeding and take snap judg
ment against her.
"And in doing so they attack Fritz,
saying he is dishonest, falsifying and uih
rcptitable. Tet they elected him their
president and manager, and kept him in
that position for a year, so that the pub
lic would not know they owneu the sa
loon." JOE BOGOSKI FACES A JITRY
On (Trial for Slabbing Ed Snnski In
Saloon How.
Joe Bogoski is on trial before a jury in
Judge O' Day's department of the Circuit
Court, charged with cutting the throat
of Ed Sunski with a knife in Poploske s
saloon, at 118 Russell street, on the niglu
of October 6. last. Sunski recovered from
his wound and was one of the witnesses
yesterday.
The testimony of the witnesses, several
of whom were Poles, was to the effect
that Bogoski. Sunski and one John Craw
ford engaged in a free-for-all fight. As a
defense Fogoski's attorney set up for him
that he was compelled to use his knite
in self-defense.
Crawford said that Sunski choked Bog
ota twice, the last time throwing him
over the bar and holding him until his
eyes bulged out. Crawford said be was
also the subject of Sunslci's enmity, and
that he was stretched out on a row of
chairs and choked. He said the trouble
arose when someone in the crowded sa
loon referred to Sunski as a "Russian."
Dr. Curtis Holcomb was called to tell
of Sunskl's injuries. He said the knife
almost severed the jugular vein and was
about to tell what would have happened
naa tne unite cut this vein, when coun
sel shut him off by asking another ques
tion. It was necessary to swear a young
woman to act as interpreter for the
Polish witnesses.
Hears Argument on Demurrer.
Judge Wolverton In the United States
Court yesterday heard and took under
advisement argument on a demurrer to
the complaint in the suit of the Amer
ican Sulphite Company, of Boston,

the total registration will not go much
over 27,000 this year, instead of 30.000. as
was hoped for by County Clerk Fields.
Voters on Sauvie's Island are anxious
to take part in the election this year.
Most of them have not voted for four
years. Ballot boxes have always been
sent to the island, but those in charge
of the election there always held it at a

transportation facilities are not good,
only three or four votes were polled at

J. Robert Douglass and Orval Doug

"Where were you born " asked the
Deputy Clerk. .
T don't know." replied the younger

laughter of the bystanders prevented the
reporter from hearing "pa's" answer.
A resident of Arleta came to the Clerk's
office to register, but didn't know where
he lived. He was asked where he got
nts mail, but he wasn t quite sure of that
either. He did not know whether it came
to him by rural free delivery or.whether
he went to Arleta for it. Of one thing.
he was certain, however. WThen he got
shaved he went to the Arleta barber. He
said he had never registered in Portland

He was sent away to find out where he
lived and to get his papers.
A voter living at Woodstock, in Pre

chamber In the east end. He owns two
lots In Portland, and one lot outside the
city, and was, therefore, registered as a
resident of Portland.
A man came to Deputy Clerk Gaasch to
register. The card was duly made out,
and the books opened for his signature.
The preceding voter had spilled a drop
of ink on the sheet, "vats dhat?" asked

game called "kow." and members of the
detective staff have been repeatedly heard
to say that It would be a waste of time

frequently made by the detective staff
that it would bo impossible to get the
players "with the goods," inasmuch as
the game is always played for money and
that the two uniformed policemen last
night had no trouble In catching their men
,with money on the table.
