Will Seek Fntranc at
Some Otlier Place.
Because of the opposition that devel
oped to thrtr appltrHtion for a permit
to erect a packing plant in South Port
land. Schwarz.schlld & Sulzberger, of
Chicago, the largest Independent meat
packers In the United States, withdrew
their ordinance at a meeting of the
Council yesterday afternoon. Although
J. S. Hoisey, Pacific Coast agent for the
company, would make no definite state
ment for publication, he gave it as his
strong opinion that this will end the at
tempt of his principals to establish a
$l,ytf.tnft plant here. He says he believes
a site will he secured elsewhere in the
Northwest.
"I do not know just what action
Rchwarzpchild & Sulzberger will take."

granted the request to postpone further
consideration of the application. "Judg

the company; however, I should say that.
In all probability, they will secure a site

Asked as to what he regarded as the
cause of the opposition to the Schwarzs
child & Fiilzbi-rper project. Mr. Helsey
said that he believed it was worked up
by the rival parking concerns Swift &
Co. and Armour & Co. Th Swifts are
now establishing an immense plant on
the Peninsula and the Armours are un
derstood to be connected with their pro
ject. "The press of Portland has performed
its proper function,' said Mr. Helsey, in
explaining the situation. "Both sides of
the matter have been told falrlja We
have noticr-d a number of letters in The
Orrgonlan, written by people who ap
parently know little, if anything, about
packing-hoiiHes. For instance, one man
declared we would fill the river with
blood and grease. Nonsense! The blood
and grease, as well as every bit of offal,
is too valuable to tie allowed to go to
waste.
"Enough has been written and said to
show the company that more or less
opposition exists against the establishing
of our plant, and it is not a good busi
ness proposition to expend a large sum
of money under such circumstances. We
merely asked for av permit, In absolute
good faith: ft was revocable at the pleas
ure of the Council. We won Id have gone
, ahead and would have spent an immense
amount of money had it not been for this
opposition."
Beldlng Calls Vp Ordinance.
When tho Council convened. Council
man Beldlng, who from the first worked
hard to secure the passage of the ordi
nance granting the company the right to
operate on the old Zimmerman site,
moved to take up the packing-house
matter. A communication from Mr.
Helsey , asking permission to withdraw
the ordinance, was read. Mr. Belding
then moved that the request be granted.
Councilman Vaughn offered an amend
ment, that the Council indefinitely post
pone further consideration of the meas
ure, which carried. The records will
show, however, that the ordinance was
withdrawn from further consideration
at the request of the company.
Councilman Cottcl. of the Fifth Ward,
who opposed the project from the outset,
arose nnd said he was so glad to win his
ftuht that he would not quibble as to
what technical disposition was made of
the request to withdraw the application.

The report of the committee on health
and police, which recommended the pas
sago of the ordinance granting the com
pany the riht to operate within the city
limits if they would expend not less than
S3.0"0 on packing-house and machinery
within two years, was formally adopted.
Mr, fielding expressed much regret at
the outcome. It was in his ward that
the company sought to locate. Mr.

QUESTION RIGHT OF MAYOR
j;i:ror.MTiox or committee
KKfTSEU BY COVNCIL.
Jrspiie Protest. I.ane Will Endeavor
lo Justify Action in Ordering
Investigation of Grants.
Councilman Cellars yesterday after
noon, durir.K a session of the Council,
took issue with Mayor Lane as to the
latfr's lepal riht to appoint a com
mittee of the Council to investigate
pul'lie-fu'rvice franchises without in
structions from that body. Mr. Cellar
held that the Mayor had no authority
so to do. and was supported In his con
tention by City Attorney Kavanaugh.
The Mayor. In reply, said he would en
deavor to find rulings sustaining- his
action.
Mayor Lane recently appointed
Councilman Kellaher, Rushlight and
Vaughn as a committee to investigate
franchises, and they have already en
tered upon their duties. At a previous
session of the Council, a resolution was
adopted authorising the Mayor to ap
point a committee'fnr this purpose, but
at the following meeting It was re
called, because Mayor Lane had ap
pointed bur- one member of the ma
jority faction. The Mayor, however,
held that he had power under the char
ter to appoint a committee to assist
him In Inquiring Into franchise, and
he Immediately did so. This time he
named three of his close political sup
porters, replacing Mr. Menefee. who
represented the majority on the old
Lommittee. The Mayor now seeks to
make this last-named committee an
ofnclal body of the Council.
"1 do not think the Mayor has any
G I
PACKERS
PERM
authority to appoint a committee of the
Council without Instructions from this
body," said Mr. Cellars, when the May
or's communication announcing the ap
pointment was re'ad. "That he may
appoint a committee of citizens, who
may chance to be members of the
Council, I grant: but I contend that
nowhere is he given authority to ap
point an official committee of the
Council without first securing instruc
tions from the Council. I do, however,
commend the Mayor that he has, after
two years and more; decided to investi
gate public-service franchises;' al
though he has thus delayed his duty,
I am glad that he is now fulfilling it."
"That is your private opinion, pub
licly expressed, is it?" retorted Mayor
Lane.
"Fes. and I ask the City Attorney if
I am not right," said Mr. Cellars:
City Attorney Kavanaugh then de
clared that Mr. Cellars' version of the
matter was correct, that the Mayor may
appoint a committee to assist in in
vestigating franchises, but that he can
not appoint a comnnittee ot the Coun
cil without the sanction and authority
of that body.
"Now Mr. Cellars and Mr. Kavanaugh
have spoken, I say that" J still intend.
If possible, to make this committee a
committee of the Council," said Mayor
Lane, and he then ordered the Council
to proceed with business.
Council Will Meet Today.
For the fourth, consecutive time the
City Council today will liold an adjourned
meeting. A large volume of business,
accumulated in two w;eks. could not be
completed at the session yesterday after
noon, and the Council adjourned until
2 o'clock this afternoon. Councilman
Baker will soon introduce an ordinance
requiring at least three sessions of the
assembly a month, and perhaps" he will
decide to stipulate weekly meetings.
AIMED AT STREET-VENDORS
Baker's Ordinance Mould Keep
Them Off Downtown Streets.
Councilman Baker introduced an or
dinance at a session of the City Council
yesterday afternoon, the provisions of
which prohibit street vendors from oper
ating on thoroughfares in the downtown
district. If it becomes a law it will drive
all eanut. popcorn and other peddlers
into the outlying territory, and will elimi
nate them from further consideration by
the authorities within the fire limits.
Mr. Baker wished the ordinance taken
up and acted on at the session, but op
position developed, and the measure was
referred to a committee for consideration:
It will be discussed at the next meeting
of the general license committee, when
the hawkers and others who are inter
ested Jn the subject will be present.
"The annoyance from street vendors
has become eoreat that it cannot longer
be tolerated." said Councilman Baker,
when the ordinance was Introduced. "The
merchants along Third street are particu
larly bothered by these hawkers, who
leave the streets In an unsightly condi
tion, and who line both sides of the
thoroughfare. It Is unjust to allow this
to continue, especially when the hawkers
compete with merchants who are paying
enormous rents."
Councilmen Belding and Driscoll an
nounced themselves as opposed to tha
Baker ordinance, and notified him that
they will fight its passage.
FAILS TO PURCHASE BONDS
Xew York Firm May Forfeit Checks
to the City.
The Lumbermen's Insurance Company
of New York has failed thus far to take
over JoO.OOO worth of Portland improve
ment bonds, bearing 6 per cent interest,
which It bid in by telegraph two weeks
ago. City Treasurer Werlein yesterday!
recommended to the Council, that the
certified check for $2500 accompanying the
bid be forfeited to the city. Such action
involves a serious legal question, and the
matter was referred to City Attorney
Kavanaugh.
There was a question at the time of
the sale of the improvement bonds as to
whether the bid of the Eastern company
was regular, as the bid called for ten
year bonds, whereas, the bonds on sale
run between seven and eight year, ac
cording to circumstances. Their life will
be shortened, however, according to Mr.
Werlein. because the city cannot purchase
them at par. as was done for a while.
Mr. Kavanaugh held that the city must
compete with all other bidders If It
wishes to buy its own bonds. Therefore
the money used for the purchase of bonds
will henceforth be used to call in out
standing bonds.

GIVE BODY BLOW
TD MAYOR'S PLAN
Enemies in City Council Reject
Municipal Ownership
Resolution.
DECLINE TO INVESTIGATE
Defeat Propewtl to Look Into Cost
and Feasibility of Installing
Street-Lights Declare lor
Contract System.
Mayor Lane's ambition to bring about
an immediate submission of the muni
cipal lighting plant question to the voters
received a severe setback at the meeting
of the City Council yesterday afternoon,
when a resolution, introduced by Coun
cilman Kellaher, calling for the appoint
ment of a committee to investigate the
merits of city ownership in a modified
form, was decisively defeated by the votes
of the "solid ten." constituting the
Mayor's political enemies In the city leg
islative body.
And. to make matters worse for the
Mayor, the majority followed up the de
feat of the resolution by passing by a vote
of five to ten an ordinance calling upon
the Executive Board to advertise for bids
for street lighting under the present sys
tem ot private contract. The only con
cession made the Mayor, who is fighting
against a renewal of the Portland Rail
way. Light & Power Company's five-year
contract for street lighting, is that the
Board is requested to call for bids for
both a three and five-year term. The
present contract expires December 31s.
Whether the Council's action yesterday
will put an end to the Mayor's fight for
immediate municipal ownership remains
to be seen. Though he may veto it, the
Mayor cannot pr.event the passage over
his head of the ordinance put through
yesterday, and It is in a manner up to
the Executive Board tasay when and for
bow long the lighting "contract shall be
let. As matters now stand, the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company, which
owns the local street lighting apparatus
or distributing system, is the anly possible
bidder.
Comes as a Surprise.
The Mayor's fight with he Council
majority over the municipal ownership
phase of the street-lighting controversy
was brought to an issue yesterday rath
er unexpectedly. The Mayor had given
It out to his friends that he had deter
mined to lay before the Council, and if
necessary, before the people, the merits
of the plan adopted in Tacoma, where
the city owns ite street-lamps and distribution-wires,
and buys electric cur
rent at a very low price for its street
lighting, but the majority was hardly
expecting the Kellaher resolution.
Mr. Kellaher was induced to offer the
resolution, it would appear, through
learning that the Mount Hood Railway
& Power Company, which is now put
ting in a large electric plant near the
city, was ready to submit a communi
cation to the Council, signifying its
willingness to bid for supplying the
city with electric current for street
lighting after October 1, if the city
would put in a distribution system.
Accordingly, immediately after this
communication was read, Mr. Kellaher
submitted his resolution. It was to the
effect that the Mayor be authorized to
appoint a committee of three to inves
tigate the cost and feasibility of install
ing a distribution system and purchas
ing electric current for street-lighting.
The resolution hardly reached a de
bate. The majority and minority mem
bers got into a tedious wrangle over
some ancient history concerning the
merits of certain municipal lighting
plants that were operated on the East
Side before the consolidation, and when
they finally came back to the present
time, had no time to devote to the pend
ing measure. The vote was then taken
on it.
Works Well in Tacoma.
.According to the Mayor's sources of
information, the plan of owning the
street lamps and buying the current for
their operation is working well in Ta
coma. The city is said to have obtained
a contract for electricity under com
petitive bidding for the price of one
half a cent per kilowat hour.
This price Is said to be but one-thirtieth
the price charged large manu
facturing plants in this city, and Mayor
Lane was informed that if electricity
could be obtained by the City of Port
land at the same price, the cost of cur
rent for each arc light for the year
would not exceed $5. At present, the
city is paying $5.30 a month for each
arc lamp, but this price, of course, in
cludes the heavy cost of distribution
and maintenance of the distribution
plant. wiich President Josselyn, of the
Portland Railway. Light & Power Corn
pay, says is so great that no profit is
made under the contract with the city.
Had Kellaher's resolution been passed
yesterday, and the committee seen fit
to recommend the purchase of a dis
tribution system, the way would have
been open, for the charter specifically
provides that the city may at any time,
by obtaining the consent of the voters
at a special election, expend not to
exceed $300,000 for just such a system,
selling bonds for that purpose. The
estimated cost of a distributing system
is about $250,000.

W. L. rason, Ex-Convict Who Made
Accusations, Has Fled to Can-"
ada to Avoid Arrest.
"W. L. Paeon, erstwhile private detec
tive for the Anti-Saloon League, is a
fugitive from justice and it is reliably
reported that the disbarment proceedings
against J. R. Wyatt, a prominent Albany
lawyer, will be dismissed. In the com
plaint before the grievance committee of
the Bar Association, Lou C. Hartman,
of the Hartman Detective Agency, by
which Pa son wa employed until re
cently, appears we the plaintiff, although
Pason was the man who preferred the
charges of unprofessional conduct against
Wyatt. Mr. Hartman yesterday assured
Mr. Wyatt' lawyer, John F. Logan, of
this city, that he had no desire person
ally to prosecute the charges, which un
doubtedly will be dismified by the griev
ance committee of the Bar Association.
Until ten days ago Pason was in the
employ of the Hartman Detective Agency
and his services were employed by the
Amp-Saloon League to gather evidence
n cm rust Albanjr drajc&ijts who were sus
pected of selling liquor in violation of
the local option law. Before these cases
could be disposed of in the State Cir
cuit Court Pasori made the sensational
charges that Wyatt had attempted to
bribe him. a witness for the state, to
leave the state and evade a eubpena to
appear and testify for the prosecution.
Subsequently Wyatt caused warrants to
be issued for Pason's arrest on two
charges of perjury, alleging that the
sleuth had perjured himself when on the
witness stand by swearing positively that
he had never served time in a peniten
tiary and had never been convicted of
a felony. About the time the warrants
were issued for his arrest Pason ad
mitted to his employe!, Hartman, that
he was an ex-convict and was promptly
discharged, but before an officer from
Albany could reach Portland and serve
the warrants alleging perjury, Pason had
left the state and gone to British Co
lumbia. "
Attorney Logan, in behalf of his client,
this week filed with the committee of the
Bar Association an answer to the com
plaint against Wyatt. denying emphat
ically every charge preferred by Pason
and demanding an Immediate hearing of
the complaint. But with the absence
from the state pf Pason and the indis
position of Hartman personally to prose
cute the accusations of- his former as
sistant. Attorney Logan will ask the
grievance committee to dismiss the pro
ceeding against Wyatt. whose reputation
as one of the leading lawyers of the state
had never before been assailed. As for
Pason, his return to the state is con
sidered improbable, in view of the fact
i that he would immediately be placed un
der arrest and prosecuted on the perjury
charge. .
POLICE WILL END PLAYIXO OF
GAMES OF CHANCE.
tse of Patent Dice-Boxes Growing
Too Common Violation of Or
der Will Mean Arrest.
Dice games and gambling devices
which have been running in a number
of cigar stores and saloons of the city
have at last come to the attention of
the police. A report was made by
members of the afternoon shift yester
day that the law is being daily violated
as regards gambling. Captain Slover
Issued an order advising his relief that
the spinning of dice in disks for money
or cigars constitutes gambling and di
rected anyone who should discover such
a game to make arrests at once.
Although Mayor Lane made a sweep
ing order condemning dice games and
slot machines some months ago, the
dice games have been running almost
without interruption There are few
saloons in the city, it is said by those
who know, which have not dice boxes
with which the bartender or proprie
tor will gamble , with patrons for
drinks.
Cigar stands have not yet returned
the old leather dice bowls to their
counters. But they have secured small
contrivances, the size of an ordinary
watch, fitted up with dice. By pressing
a spring the- dice are made to roll and
the gaming fiend can play with but lit
tle chance of detection. If he make
26 points in 25 turns of the dice he gets
$1 worth of cigars. Otherwise he gets
nothing. The chance costs a quarter.
The percentage is said to be about 85
to 15 in favor of the house.

PARASITES THAT
EXPELLED
The interest created in leading cities
during; the past year by young Mr.
Cooper with hs new - preparation, is
largely accounted for by a peculiar
quality possessed by this medicine,
which he calls his New Discovery.
Mr. Cooper believes that internal
parasites, or tapeworms, are responsi
ble for much ill health, and it is an
undoubted fact that his medicine has
expelled Immense numbers of these
creatures in various cities' visited by
him. The young man also believes
that stomach trouble is the main cause
of all ill health. He claims that few
can have poor health with a good di
gestion. He further claims that his
New Discovery medicine does nothing
but tone up the stomach, yet it not
only expels the parasites, but relieves
many other ailments not as a; rule
associated with, stomach trouble.
Little Jessie Birdsa.ll, daughter of
Mrs. Ida Birdsall, living at 2138 Carr
roll Avenue, Chicago, is among many
relieved of a large parasite by Mr.
Cooper's preparation during his stay
in that city. In speaking of the mat
ter to Mr. Cooper, the mother said:
"My child Jessie, who is fourteen years
old, has been suffering with this
trouble for over seven years. Until

The City Council, by a strictly factional
Vote, yesterday afternoon recalled the

It was announced that the committee

Councilman Wallace introduced the res
olution calling for the dismissal of the
committee of three Councilmen Vaughn,
Concannon and Belding. There was no
discussion of the resolution and it was
put to a vote immediately after its in
troduction. The ten lumbers who stand
or fall together on all propositions cast
their ballots as a unit: the five remaining
members, constituting Mayor Lane's
friends, opposed the resolution: ,
Hint at Various Motives.
Various tales are told as to -mhy the
special investigating committee was re
called. Mr. Vaughn declared it was be
cause Mr. Driscoll is a. leading member
of the Draymen's Association, which or
ganization was scheduled for an official
probing this morning. He says that the
majority faction, of which Mr. Driscoll
is a member, was afraid of the commit
tee, as the members had performed their
duties fully and fearlessly, having thor
oughly inquired in-to the conditions of , the
furniture trade.
"They were simply afraid to let the
committee proceed,'' said Mr. Vaughn.
"Driscoll was about to be drawn into the
matter,- and they had to cut oft our
power. Personally, I don't care what they
do: but the public is hurt by their ac
tion, for there are many things we
should have investigated."
The version 'of the majority faction on
the matter is that the investigations were
ill-advised: that they should never have
been authorized and that to continue them
would be poor policy. Another theory
is that the majority' members have formed
an agreement to behead all committees
on which the Mayor has named his po
litical friends.

The subway commission , authorized
seven months ago, and of which Mayor
Tane is chairman, met a different fate.
Upon motion of Councilman Cellars, it
was granted a new lease of life and will
be given an opportunity to make a re
port. "In view of the fact that the resolu

session of the Council has stirred the sub
way commission to a little activity,"
sail Mr. Cellars, "I move that the reso
lution to recall be laid on the table. If

Mr. Cooper, your medicine is worth a

Shredded Wheal
a food that contains all the
tissue-building material in the
whole wheat prepared in a
digestible form.
For breakfast heat the Biscuit in oven,
pour milk over it (hot milk in winter) and
a little cream. If you like the Biscuit for
breakfast you will like toasted TRISCUIT
(the Shredded Wheat wafer) for luncheon
or any meal with butter, cheese or marma

The cure for the blues Cascarets.
A million boxes go out every month
to carry a world of sunshine.
Are you getting your share?
Cascarets act as a bowel tonic, not as an irritant.
They are vegetable. Their action is natural. Their
effect is the same as the effect of some foods.
They are gentle; no griping-.
They are pleasant; no dreading.
, They are convenient; no waiting.
One old way was castor oil.
The effect was to grease the bowels, and for a single
day. Oil never causes the bowel muscles to act.
Other ways were pills, salts and cathartics. The effect
was the same as pepper has in the nostrils. They
flooded the bowels with fluid.
Those fluids were digestive juices. And the waste
today means a lack tomorrow.
We knew that the method was wrong. . That the after-effects only
weakened the bowels.
But we had no gentle laxatives in the old days. So we waited ai
long as we could, then took a big dose of physic.
The method today is to take one Cascaret at a time just as soon
as you need it. Then the bowels are always clean.
Cascarets are candy tablets. They are sold by all druggists,
but never in bulk. Be sure you get the genuine, with CCC
on every tablet. The price is 50c, 25c and
