Railroad Men Indorse Plan to
Increase Population in
Rural Districts.
WORK WITH REALTY BOARD
Improvement of Agricultural Condi
tions Included In Project Dis
cussed at Meeting at Which Big
Interests Are Represented.
Managers ot the railroads centering
In Portland grave their hearty Indorse
ment yesterday to a plan to split up
the farms of the Willamette Valley
into smaller holdings and Improve
agricultural conditions generally
throughout Western Oregon. Better
farming environments. Increased pro
ductlvlty and a denser population, it
tib said, would follow the , changes
outlined.
The project was set on foot by the
Portland Realty Board and the com
mittee having It in charge met at the
Commercial Club yesterday, where the
railroad men had been asked to con
fer with the real estate men. The re
sult of the meeting was most favora
ble to the success of the plan and the
committee will make Its report "within
a few days to the Realty Board. There
Is little question but the report will
be a favorable one and that the move
ment will be taken up actively.
Whitney L. Boise Presides.
Representative railroad men met
with the committee yesterday and
made brief talks which were all fav
orable to the change in agricultural
methods In Western Oregon. Whitney
L. Boise, who called the meeting on
behalf of the Realty Board, presided
and Introduced the subject by outlin
ing a plan whereby the large farms
' of the Willamette Valley should be
divided and more scientific farming
methods followed. He pointed out the
benefits that would follow such ac
tion. Dr. James Withycombe. director of
the Oregon Experiment Station, at
Corvallis, spoke, saying the plan Is
practical and urged those present to
undertake the work for he believes it
the biggest thing that can be done
for the development of the country.
He said the proposed change in con
ditions would benefit many people, for
it would bring about a far denser pop
ulation for the country directly tribu
tary to Portland.
Francis B. Clark, president of the
Spokane. Portland & Seattle Railway;
It. B. Miller, general freight agent for
the Harrlman lines In this territory;
G. W. Talbot, general manager for
the Oregon Electric Railway; Benage
S. Josselyn, president of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company,
spoke and favored the project and
assured the realty men of the full
co-operation of the various railroads
they represent.
Added Wealth for Producers.
C. C. Colt, of the Union Meat Com
pany, and George M. Brown, president
of the Hazelwood Cream Company,
spoke, showing what can be accom
plished along the lines suggested in
increasing the dairy and livestock
products of Western Oregon, resulting
in added wealth to the producers.
E. L. Thompson of the Realty Board,
spoke encouragingly on the subject,
and H. A. Wheler, of Chicago, who
was a visitor at the club yesterday,
was Introduced by Tom Richardson
and gave an Interesting discussion of
the value of more scientific agricul
ture and the benefits of smaller and
better cultivated farms. He heartily
approved of the plan and said It was
the best proposition he had heard
since he has been on his present trip
west from Chicago.
As soon as the committee of the
Realty Board makes its report to that
organization. It is expected the mem
bers will start active work on a prop
osition to bring about the changes
desired. A campaign along these lines
will be launched that promises to be
of great benefit to this state.
C HANGES IX STREETCAK LIXES
Eleventh and Thirteenth Streets
Service Will Be Combined.
Marked changes will be made in the
operation of cars on Eleventh and Thir
teenth streets if a proposition now under
consideration by the officials of the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Company is
approved by the Council end the pending
franchises asked for by the street railway
company are granted. It Is planned to
extend the Eleventh-street line to Hall
and build a track on Hall to Thirteenth
and on Thirteenth to Portland Academy,
the present terminus of the Thirteenth
street line. This will form a loop so that
tars from the down-town district will run
up Harrison to Eleventh, on Eleventh to
Hall and back on Thirteenth to Washing
ton and down Washington to Third or
Second.
By this means, says President Josselyn
of the trolley company, the number of
cars on the run can be Increased and a
better service given. "People of this dis
trict have been clamoring for better ser
vice for some time," said President Jos
selyn. "The present traffic, with cars
operated independently on the Eleventh
and Thirteenth-street lines, does not
Justify the present service but It is
thought that by putting the two lines to
gether and operating them together the
service desired can be given.
"While this plan may not be satis
factory to everyone living in the district,
it seems the best that the company can
make out of a bad proposition and will
no doubt In the end be appreciated by
all."
Another plan is up for consideration
whereby the streetcar company will aban
don the tracks on Fourteenth street, be
tween Gllsan and Thurman streets. This
district, formerly occupied by residences,
has been given up almost wholly to ware
houses and very little traffic for a street
car line is offered. The North and South
Portland cars, which are now operated on
Fourteenth street, will be routed on Six
teenth street Instead and the Fourteenth
street tracks torn up. This will give
double the present frequency of cars on
Sixteenth as at present between Olisan
and Thurman. It is also proposed to give
up a short piece of track on Nineteenth
street, from Thurman to Sherlock avenue,
and all tha track on Sherlock avenue. A
new track will then be built on Twenty
first street from Thurman to Sherlock
avenue.
The abandonment of any present tracks
cannot be accomplished, however, without
reducing the amount of the bonded debt,
which Is Impracticable, or by building an
equal amount of new track In some other
locality to preserve the existing equities.

MR. A.U MRS. ARTHUR H. CLUTK, CAUGHT BY OREGONIAN PHOTOGRAPHER JUST AS THEY WERE
LEAVING CITY JAIL FOR COUNTY JAIL.
FAIR SUSPECT IS HRY
ALLEGED DIAMOND THIEF RE
SENTS jail Lira.
Pretty Mrs. Arthur Clute Greall
Perturbed Over Indignities Upon
Herself and Her Infant Child.
Protesting , that she had never before
ridden in a patrol and begging to be re
moved in a carriage. Mrs. Arthur H.
Clute, accused of the theft of $2000 worth
of jewels, was yesterday transferred from
police headquarters to the County Jail.
Her husband, also in custody, and 9-months-old
baby, accompanied her.
For 24 hours she was a prisoner in the
women's ward of the City Jail, under the
care of Matron Simmons. It is the first
time, according to Mrs. Simmons, that
a woman has been Imprisoned In the City
Jail with a child so young. Oblivious to
her surroundings, the child laughed and
played and entertained other prisoners in
the women's ward.
Mrs. Clute is Indignant as a result of
her arrest. So also is her husband. It is
purely a "frame-up," she declares, and
somebody Is sure to suffer for the indig
nities heaped upon her.
They were arrested yesterday afternoon
in their flat, at 3 47 Eleventh street,
where they have lived for two months.
They are accused of having stolen from
Jacob Fleischman. a jeweler of Cran-
brook. B. C, diamonds and other gems of
the value of $2000. The arrests were
caused at the instigation of the Canadian
police. A Canadian officer is here to es
cort them back to the north in case ex
tradition papers are secured.
Mrs. Clute denies positively that she
is guilty of the theft or of any other
crime. She knows the jeweler well, she
says, but is unable to explain his motives
in making such accusations. He Is a
traveling salesman, she declares, and she
has purchased many jewels from him.
She has always paid him and owes him
nothing at the present time.
T don't owe him a dollar, she said in
the City Jail yesterday. 'Nor were my
husband or myself trying to escape or
hide from any ye. We have lived here
SPIRITUALIST ROW IS CASE OF
BUTTON, WHO HAS THE BUTTON?
State and National Organizations Are Waging Legal Warfare as to Respect
ive Standing of Their Orders in the Local Courts.
"B
UTTON, button, who's got the
button."
That was the game that was
played in Judge Bronaugh's court with a
few slight variations, yesterday morning.
The books and records' of the State Spir
itualist Society were substituted for the
"button," and Green C. Love was "It."
But as he didn't call the spirits to his
aid In finding the records, he was still

books might keep them until Love suc

Love Is suing Mrs. Sophia B. Seip. Vir
ginia Howe. Mrs. Lou Ellen Cornell, Mrs.
Fannie Branch, Mrs. Belle M. Haviland,
Miss Jennie Werner and Edwin King, to
oust them as directors of the state asso
ciation, and to recover $2090 damages from
each of them on the charge that they
have been holding office Illegally. " Yes
terday's seance in court was -the result
of an order issued by Judge O'Day
against Mrs. Seip and Mrs. Cornell, di
recting them to come into court and show
cause why they should not turn over the
books of the association to Love, who is
a member of the First Spiritual Society,
and is known as a "missionary."
Had Xo Right Here.
Attorney Ralph Dunlway appeared for
Mrs. Seip. while Mrs. Cornell was hot
represented in court although present her
self. Mr. Duniway contended that the
president of the National Spiritualists' As
sociation has no right to come to Oregon
and oust the officers of a body Incorpor
ated in this state. "It is a very small
matter, anyway. Your Honor," said Mr.
Duniway. "New officers are to be
elected in September. The plaintiff wants
this court to put this corporation in the
hands of Yanckwlch. as attorney in fact,
and give the plaintiff J2000 damages from
each of the defendants because they are
not the particular brand of spiritualists
he thinks they should be.
Attorney Yanckwlch told the courc
that Lou Ellen Cornell, secretary of
the state association, had filed an
answer in court to Love's quo war
ranto complaint, in which he admits
all his allegations, and that she is

"Mr. Fleischman must certainly explain
these accusations, for he has no evi
dence of our having committed a crime.
It is a shame to bring us here and to keep
my baby here."
Attorney John F. Logan has been re
tained by the prisoners and he predicts
that the Canadian jeweler will have con
siderable difficulty in proving the charges
that have been made.
Mrs. Clute is a daughter by his tlrst
wife, of Newton Whitestone, a wealthy
sheepman of Morrow County.

Dinner in Honor of Xew Comman

Members of the Arlington Club will
give a complimentary dinner to Brigadier
General Daniel F. Brush tonight in the
banquet room of the club, to which his
staff has been Invited, and about 50 mem
bers of the club will attend. The affair
promises to be a brilliant otic
General Brush has lately come to take
command of the Department of the Co
lumbia, U. S. A., with headquarters at
Vancouver Barracks. The dinner tonight
will be in the nature :of a welcome to his
new post of duty. About IB members of
his. staff will probably attend.
Ex-Senator Gearln, president of the Ar
lington Club, will act as toastmaster and
a few prominent members of the club will
be called upon to speak, and General
Brush will probably make a short reply
to the good . wishes expressed by his
hosts. Relations of the club organiza
tion "and the officers at the Vancouver
garrison, have always been of the most
pleasant character and it is the desire of
the club membership to make the new
commander feel that he has the best
wishes of Portland people at his new post

trustees. Yanckwich then read an
order, issued by Judge O'Day, before
he left the bench, in which it Is found
that Mrs. Cornell. Mrs. Branch and Mrs.
Condon are no longer members of the
state body. This order was Issued last
Saturday.
Says She Belongs.
Mr. Duniway replied to Yanckwich
by holding out an affidavit, signed by
Mrs. Cornell, In which she claims to be
still a' member of the association. The
Court asked Yanckwich If he had al
leged in his petition for the order,
directing Mrs. Seip and Mrs. Cornell
to deliver up the books, that they ever
had the books, and was informed by
the attorney that there was no peti
tion. "Then where are your allega
tions on which I am to make an order?"
asked the Court. "Oh, we will make
the allegations afterward, answered
Yanckwich. .
Yanckwich insisted that the- books
should be turned over, and the Court
said that if Mrs. Cornell was out of
office the board of trustees was en
titled to them. "But there is no
board of directors," said Yanckwich.
"And Love is not entitled to them," re
plied the Court. "Mrs. Seip has them
and she has no right to them," replied
Yanckwlch. "What difference does it
make who haa them," interposed At
torney Duniway.
"Well, it makes a whole lot of dif
ference to us. Somebody might come
in here and make a gift of $10,000 to
the state association, and we want the
books in the proper hands."
After arguing with the Court, and
informing him in a guarded way that
his decision was all wrong. Yanckwich
said that if he had to make allega
tions, he would make them at once,
"before you leave the bench your
honor." "But Mrs. Cornell must be
served with the papers," said the
Court. "She has already been served,"
replied Yanckwich. "Well, you file
your allegations with the clerk,"
answered the Court.
Yanckwlch is endeavoring to put the
case through court . with the least
possible expense, even seeking last
week to have the filing fee remitted,
GEMS
DEBTS ARE WIPED OUT
OREGON TRUST OBLIGATIONS
CUT 65 PER CENT.
Receiver Has Realized Promptly on
Assets of Defunct Institution
Now in Merger.
That 65 per cent of t.ie liabilities of
the defunct Oregon Trust & Savings
Bank has been liquidated since the as
sets and bad debts' of the failed insti
tution have been taken over by the
German-American Bank, is the most
Interesting feature of the report of
Receiver Devlin filed with the court
yesterday. Although Receiver Devlin
has two years In which to wind up
the affairs of the defunct bank and
meet the claims against It, he has
made this splendid showing in four
months and a half.
Prom the liabilities listed January
15 at $2,208,455.15. the indebtedness
has been reduced to $628,985.06. As
sets were listed In January at $2,135,
694.88 and they are now $719,051.24.
The report is dated at the close of
business June 30.
Prom the progress made so far, it
appears that much less than the two
years granted by the courts will be
needed to wind up the affairs of the
closed institution. However, the best
of the assets have been realized upon,
as the most available to close the ac
counts so far satisfied and the remain
ing debts to be paid oft will not be
handled- so readily. But the success
of the new management of the affairs
of the old bank will be eminently sat
isfactory to all depositors and others
interested in the settlement of the
bank's accounts.
In brief, the report just given by
Receiver Devlin shows that of out
standing loans and discounts amount
ing to "$323,874.86 last January, $298,
520.14 has been Collected. This Item
was not considered a strong asset
when the bank closed its doors but
the success of the receiver in collect
ing so much of the outstanding loans
in so short a time shows good per
sistent work.
Telephone bonds, which were cred
ited with having swamped the bank,
a little over a year ago because of the
apparently childlike faith of the
bank's managers in the security until
they bought a total of $1,106,600, have
happily been reduced to about
$324,000.

VALLEY WHEAT CROP GOOD
Heavy Yield of Fall Grain About
Harrisburg.
HARRIS BURG, Or., July a. (Special.)
The farmers of this section are prepar
ing for the approaching harvest. Wagons,
headerbeds, and everything appertaining
to the harvest outfit is being fitted for
use. In the meantime many self-bmding
harvesters have gone to the fields today.
The report is that a better yield from
the Fall- own grain will be realized than
during the last ten years. On account of
the late hot, dry weather fears are ex
pressed in regard to Spring-sown grain
that it will not mature in good form.
However, in years past, when dry sea
sons occurred, this same complaint has
been heard, but in every instance the
grain has come to the warehouses sounder
and heavier than in years when there was
greater precipitation.

'5 VETOES
MAY NOW STAND
Driscoll's Vote Will Allow the
Council Minority to Block
Measures of Majority.
LIVELY SESSION EXPECTED
Ordinances Proposing Erection of
New City Jail and Exclusion of
Women From Saloons Will
Come Up Today.
Today- session of . the City Council
bids faiito be worth attending:. Aside
from a number of Important measures
that are coming up for action, it will
be notable as the first meeting of that
body In which M. J. Drlscoll. Councll-man-at-Large,
will appear as a mem
ber of the minority faction. It will be
interesting. alo, to note what effect
his desertion from the ranks of the
so-called "solid ten" will have upon
legislation. He is but on of 15 mem
bers, but much depends upon his action
Just at this time. Desperate efforts are
being made, .both by majority and
minority leaders, to "land" Mr. Drlscoll,
and It remains to be seen whether ho
will vote with the minority hence
forth, or will wreak vengeance for a
time only by so doing, and then return
to the opposing faction.
Mr. Drlscoll is about as angry as it is
possible for a city legislator to be and
contain himself, because he believes
that he has been used as a sort of a
mat by his associates of the "solid
ten," and he has publicly declared that
he will not longer act with the ma
jority. The greatest fight he ever -led
was in attempting to keep alive a
license for the Pullman cafe, an Alder
street resort, and when he was in the
thickest of the battle, he says his col
leagues deserted him and 1st him go
down to defeat.
Drlscoll Ready to Fight.
"They refused to help me when I
needed their help, although I had acted
with them for months and had sup
ported them whenever they asked me
to," says Mr. Drlscoll of his colleagues.
"When I wanted them to stand by me,
they turned me down hard. Now, you
want to try afld hold your breath until
I support them again. I'll fight them
right down the line, and show them
what a real independent man can do in
this Council."
Mr. Driscoll's attitude means more
than the' mere shifting from the major
ity to the minority faction. By voting
with the five minority members, he
makes It absolutely impossible for the
majority faction henceforth to pass any
measure over the veto of Mayor Lane,
as It takes a two-thirds majority to do
eo, and the desertion of Mr. Drlscoll
leaves the majority lacking one vote.
This will really leave the majority
powerless to accomplish anything of
importance in case of a veto.
That Mr. Drlscoll is a hard fighter
Is acknowledged, and that there will
be animated times at future sessions,
unless he is won back to the majority,
is predicted. He has already laid plans
to retaliate on Councilman Wills, whom
he considers as having been the prime
mover in the recent defeat by the ma
jority faction.
Says Wills Has an Object.
Mr. Wills has introduced an ordi
nance authorizing the Executive Board
to sell the City Jail site and to use the
money for the purchase of other prop-

clares He W'llr Oppose Major
ity Faction.
erty and the erection of a new build
ing. Mr. Drlscoll has announced that
Mr. Wills Is doing this to sell to the
city a piece of property at Ninth and
Davis streets, in which he owns an in
terest. This matter comes up for ac
tion today, and a clash is expected.
Mr. Wills is also known as a deter
mined fighter.
One interesting feature of the case
relates to the proposed ordinance which
was drawn to keep women from sa
loons. Mr. Drlscoll Is the author of
this measure, and Mr. Wills Is on rec
ord as strongly favoring its passage.
Now. however, Mr. Wills has come out
with a substitute, the main feature of
which is to put in an ordinance defin
ing a saloon. It is known there is con
siderable opposition to the Drlscoll or
dinance, and It Is now said that the
majority members will sidetrack the
Driscoll ordinance again and have it
sent to a committee for further con
sideration. It would probably go to
the committee on health and police, of
which Mr. Wills is a member, and
there such alterations, amendments and
changes could be made as might be de
sired. Mr. Driscoll's change of attitude. Is
the most radical occurring in the Coun
cil since the last city election. The
division of the Council now is as fol
lows: Majority faction Annand, Ba
ker. Belding. Bennett. Cellars, Dunning,
Menefee, Wallace and Wills. Minority
faction Cottel, Concannon, Drlscoll,
Kellaher, Rushlight and Vaughn.

OLD-TIME sailor men must have
been. In a way, different from those
of today. The frame two-story building
at the northwest corner of Fourth and
Ankeny Streets, being razed to make
room for the modern warehouse to be
occupied by the Pacific Paper Com
pany, was, years ago, the quarters of
the Seamen's Institute. The outer
framework fell to the ground yester
day afternoon leaving the plastered
walls of the upper story exposed to
view. In a circular line on the west
wall were In big black letters the words
of the commandment-r-"Thou ShaltNot
Steal." No other word of admonition
appeared, which leaves the Impression
on the passerby that larceny was the
besetting sin of the salt of former
days.
The old buildings on the half block
are being torn away by C. J. Cook &
Co., which firm Is also clearing the
ground of the old building at Fifth and

Gay Lombard is to erect a modern
structure and also the corner of Sixth

PENDLETON, Or., July 21. (Specis 1.)
For the first time in many years, grass
hoppers are creating havoc In the alfalfa
fields and gardens In the vicinity of Pilot
Rock. In some Instances, the hoppers
have seriously damaged the second and
third cuttings of alfalfa along the Birch
Creek Valley, while gardens have suf
fered still more seriously, only on a much
smaller scale.
The cause of the plague of Insects is
attributed to the dry Spring and early
Summer, though why their operations
should be confined to the southern part
of the county is not known.
