BLAME LAI FOR
DELAYING ACTI
Councilmen Say He Should Use
Present Force Against
Immoral Houses.
WILL GRANT HIS REQUEST
Wills and Beldlng Favor Allowing
More Officers, but Believe That
Mayor Should First Try Ef
fect of Closing Order.
Mayor Lane Is sharply criticised by
Councilman Wills and Belding regard
lny the present state of the morals of
Portland, their statements being made
as the result of the letter issued by
the Executive Wednesday, asking for
additional policemen to enforce a con
templated order closing all disorderly
houses. It Is a great shock, say the
Councilmen. to learn so suddenly of
the serious situation outlined by the
Mayor. Why ask for more officers
when he has never ordered the dis
reputable dives to go out of business?
ask these officials, and why did the
Mayor wait so long before disclosing
the state of affairs? However, it is
the unanimous opinion of all the
Councilmen who can be Interviewed
that the extra police should be al
v lowed, since the Mayor says he needs
them to maintain order.
"I am shocked to learn of the de
plorable condition announced by Mayor
Lane," commented Councilman Wills.
"It surprises me to know from his
own statement that the morals of the
city are so much worse now than they
were at the first of the year. It was
never before necessaray for the Mayor
to call for additional police to keep
order. And why did not he disclose
these startling facts In his annual
message?
Asks Reason for Delay.
"He never before told the Council of
these conditions. And why Is It that
he calls for these extra men when he
has never so much as ordered the dis
orderly houses closed up? How does
he kuow ha will require more police
men? I would like to know why he
does not first try to do something
with the present police force.
"SUM, It is for the Mayor to regu
late and suppress vice and crime, and
If matters have reached a stage that
he must have extra help to keep down
lawlessness, why I will vote to give
him 10. 15 or 20 more officers."
"If the Mayor needs more officers
to enforce the law, I suppose he will
have them," said Councilman Beldlng.
"But as I see the matter, he does not
need any additional policemen. If he
orders the regular patrolmen and the
detectives to enforce a closing order,
he knows they will enforce It.
Calls Attention to Boxes.
"Of course he does not need any
more officers. That Is my opinion, but
If he really thinks he does, why I will
vote for them, provided the funds are
to be .had. Incidentally, I want to ask
the Mayor why he don't Issue orders
to the police force he now commanads
to enforce the box ordinance. There
are flagrant violations of that law.
without the slightest effort upon his
part to have It enforced. The box
evil la just as bad- as ever. Let him
try this."
-It the Mayor Intends to enforce the
law I favor giving him whatever help
he may require In the shape of police
force," said Councilman Bennett. "Any
assistance he deems necessary should
be given him. If the Council Is em
powered and the funds hold out."
Regarding the statements of Council
man Baker, published vesterrinv morn
ing. Mayor Lane said:
"Mr. Baker's statements that this Is
an effort to unload on the Council the
responsibility for law enforcement and
that It is also a political move, are
untrue. Nothing of the kind is In
tended. The responsibility rests with
me. if the Council does its share."
No official action can ibe taken on
the matter, until next Wednesday, at
which time the Council is to meet. It
Is thought the Mayor will do nothing
more until the Council acts. As mat
ters now stand It looks as though the
Council will grant the extra number
of policemen asked by the Mayor next
Wednesday, Instead of referring his
request to a committee.
WETTED BY WATER WAGON
Dr. Hegele Complains of Driver of
City Sprinkling Cart.
PORTLAND, Or., Aug. 20. (To the
Editor.) Referring to an arUcle which
appeared in The Oregon lan today, let
us have the exact truths In thla mat
ter: In the first place, the drivers of these
sprinkling carts are Instructed to shut
off the water and not sprinkle any
vehicles which are standing at the curb
as' they go by. But there are some
drivers, of which type William B.
Bchlenker Is a nne example, and with
whose methods I have become very fa
miliar, who make It their special busi
ness to thoroughly wet everything and
everybody, lust as they please.
Some thres weeks ago he sprinkled
my automobile, at which time I warned
him not to repeat It again, as It was
against his orders. The second time,
which was the very next chance he had,
was when my automobile was standing
In front of the Corbett building, in
which building my offices are located.
This time I again warned him, but It
seems that my warnings had. no effect
nor made any Impression whatsoever
In the place where his brain ought to
be, for on Tuesday evening, while I was
starting my automobile, he came along
with his water wagon and with willful
Intent drove as close as he could to the
automobile and gave both myself and
the car the full benefit of his possibili
ties, namely, a thorough wetting. Wit
nesses will corroborate my statements.
This act was sufficient to arouse the an
ger of any man. I thereupon grabbed tho
reins of the horses and told the driver
a few things In very plain English, but
It seems that he thinks he should still
be permitted to carry on his "bullhead
ed" tricks at his pleasure without any
Interference. Other automobile owners
have telephoned and told me personally
that they have been put to the same
trouble with these men who run
sprinkling ws irons, and It Is about time
steps were taken to protect automobiles
from such abuse at least, our licenses
provide for such protection.
As to my automobile standing next
to the curb at my residence and being
in the way of the Cleaning Department,
J wleh to state that I keep my machine
at that hour, usually 7 in the evening,
on the Fourteenth-street side of my
house. In order to not be In the way
of the wagons and brooms; but when
It becomes necessary I use the Morrison-street
side of my house as a stopping-place;
and who has a better right
when I pay for the paving of the street
and Its repair? Will I have to ask
anyone's permission? Or has anyone
the right to sprinkle one's automobile,
any more than to throw mud or deface
it In any other way?
Nor has my automobile the bad hab
its claimed for It, namely, standing
outside all night: for that happens to
be another machine, standing next my
curb, but not owned by me, as I keep
mine in a garage but two blocks dis
tant. Besides, should it be necessary, as it
is oftentimes In my profession, to keep
the automobile In Immediate reach, at
any hour even the wee hours of the
morning I propose to keep It where I
need it and want it, putting It into the
garage when I think best, and not at
the convenience of the Street-Cleaning
Department.
Go look at the corner of Fourteenth
and Morrison and see that stagnant
mud puddle, specially made by these
men.- And yet a gardener Is paid to
keep the grass It. good shape, only to
have It rooted out by the sprinkling
wagons. DR. H. W. HEGELE.
DIES AUTO INTO SLOUGH
HIGH STEVEXSOX FXtrXGES
VOWS STEEP GRADE.
Although He la Little Injured, Acci
dent Reveals Dangerous Con
dition on East Taylor.
That the unfilled portion of East
Taylor street, between East Ninth and
East Tenth streets, across Hawthorne
slough, is a dangerous place was dem
onstrated Wednesday night when Hugh
Stevenson, a chauffeur, who drove into
the sfough a big automobile from the
F. A. Bennett Automobile Company,
thinking he had a safe street ahead of
him. He had been sent out at mid
night with an extra tire for a disabled
machine and as East Morrison street
is closed, turned down to East Taylor
street and then drove eastward over
'the west bank of the slough, where
the automobile lodged In the brush
partly in the mud and water.
Mr. Stevenson received no. Injuries
except a few bruises. The machine
was lifted out of the slough yesterday
forenoon and was foiled to have been
little damaged by the plunge. East
Taylor street Is improved on both sides
of Hawthorne slough close up to the
edge and there are no barricades on
either side and no lights near. Stand
ing a block away at night the pres
ence of the slough will not be noticed,
and one not familiar with the neigh
borhood would not know there was
danger.
This danger Is now emphasized from
the fact that East Morrison street, us
ually taken by the public .eastward, is
closed and the next .open street south
is East Salmon, which Is on block
south of East Taylor. People are con
stantly driving down to Hawthorne
slough on East Taylor from both di
rections at night and several have had
narrow escapes from plunging into the
Blough. Councilman Kellaher fought
hard to have Hawthorne slough filled
at this point, when East Taylor street
was improved, but the Hawthorne es
tate protested and defeated the Im
provement. THIS CIRCUS IS IMMENSE

Long Work of Famous Oregon Naturalists Bears Fruit
Creation by President of Wild Bird Preserves Result of Efforts of W. L. Finley and H. T. Bohlman
THE creation by President Roose
velt of the wild bird reserves on
Lower Klamath, Harney and Mal
heur Lakes, In Southern Oregon, Is the
result of several years' work carried on
by William L. Finley and Herman T.
Bohlman. of the Oregon v Audubon Soci
ety. Upon the recommendation of these
naturalists. President Roosevelt set
aside the Three Arch Rocks Reserve at
Netarts, a year ago. In the Summers
of 1901 and 1903. Mr. Finley and Mr.
Bohlman made a careful study of sea
bird life on the Oregon Coast, and their
Investigations and reports led to the
establishment of the reserve. In 1905
they made a study of the Klamath re
gion, and the past Summer they spent
two months in Harney County in the
Interest of wild bird protection.
In the last ten years the ducks,
geese and other water fowl In the res
gion referred to have greatly decreased
in number, and this condition would
have been greatly augmented by the
opening up of the country to railroad
communication. Some of the highly
plumaged species of birds have been
annihilated and others almost destroyed
by plume-hunters. Reports to this ef
fect that were recently sent on to
Washington. D. C, by these two Port
land naturalists brought hasty action
from the President.
Great credit Is due Mr. Finley and
Mr. Bohlman, and the members of the
POLICE CAPTURE
WILY
CHAUFFEUR
Cell-Door Closes on Escapades
of Ernest Diebler, Ex
Cavalryman. IDENTIFICATION IN PRISON
Mining Operator Declares Arrested
Man to Be One Who Defraud
ed Him of Money.
Story of Crime.
Ernest Diebler, chauffeur and former
cavalryman, whose escapades with a.
stolen automobile on the Pacific Coast
i i. ....Jul i4ot.ttvps messing
(lava ncrf. cv ' " d -
at various times within the past montn.
was arrested here yesterday aiieruuui..
while on his way to keep an appointment
with a young woman of whom he is
enamored.
After escaping from Chicago detec
tives by leaping from a Northern Pa
cific train near Bozeman. Mont., Dieb
ler came direct to Portland. Prompted
by a desire to see a Portland woman,
he cast caution, to the winds and Is
now in the City Jail.
Diebler was arrested at Fifth and
Montgomery streets at 3 o'clock by
Detectives Hellyer and Maloney. He
was dressed in working clothes, but
wore no disguise. He showed great
indignation, insisting that a mistake
had been made. He almost convinced
the officers, for in his pockets were
found letters addressed to "E. W.
Smith," which he claimed as his name.
He said he came from Seattle and was
a locomotive engineer.
Diebler held to this assertion until
C. A. Dunn, tobacco dealer and mining
operator, was called to the station.
Dunn had been defrauded by Diebler
to the extent of $387. When ho learned
Dunn was to appear, the auto thief
played his last card. He complained
of being sick and in a few minutes
fell to the floor. The detectives
soused him with cold water and he
opened his eyes only to begin writh
ing as If in pain.
Identified by Dunn.
When Mr. Dunn leaned over to identify
him, Diebler had his face twisted as if
in pain, but he failed to escape recog
nition. Dunn had known him for a year
and only needed a brief glimpse of the
suspect.
"That's the right man." he said, and
Dleblei-s pain at- once passed away.
Then a second Idea must have flashed
through the prisoner's mind, for he set
about giving an exhibition of violent men
tal derangement.
"Where's the rest of the battalion. Lieu
tenantrhe shouted, staring wildly. "See,
they're coming after me the goo-goos are
coming. They'll murder us all. We can't
hold this position without more men.
Hurry up, Lieutenant."
Diebler's exploits with a stolen auto
mobile read more like a few pages torn
from the frenzied literature of a freak
magazine. I'p to a year ago his life ap
pears to have been . an honest one. He
served through the Philippine campaign
as a sergeant in Troop A, Fourteenth
United States Cavalry, and on returning
worked for a railway company out of
Chicago, later becoming driver for the
Haines Automobile Company, of Chicago.
He Is married and has a son of three
years. '
A year ago -he came to Portland In
search of work. He bore excellent letters
of Introduction and recommendation ad
dressed to Mr. Dunn. Failing to get
work, he returned to Chicago. In June he
came here again and in July asked Mr.
Dunn to advance him money to pay for
shipment of a touring car here from Chi
cago. Mr. Dunn gave him the money
and took a tentative bill of sale on the
machine for security. Diebler said he
expected a draft from his mother and
would meet all obligations when it ar
rived. Securing the machine, the young man
set out for Monmouth. The day he left
word reached here that the automobile
had been stolen from the Haines Auto
mobile Company. The Monmouth authori
ties arrested him on a charge of exceed
ing the speed limit in order to hold him
until a warrant arrived. - '
.' Writes Check on Bank.
Diebler promptly penned a check for
$500 on a Portland bank to secure his
appearance. The rural constabulary ac
cepted the check. They held the auto
mobile, however, and took It to Inde
pendence for safe keeping. A livery sta
ble was used for Its storage.
On the night of July 20, before the fact
became known to the' authorities that
they had taken a worthless check to se
cure the appearance of a criminal. Dieb
ler went to the livery stable, climbed
Into his car and turned on "high speed."
He ahot out of the stable and was gone
befor the auto's legal custodian could
restrain him. He speeded to this city,
picked up Martin Stromberg and pro
ceeded on his way to Seattle, stopping
at American Lake to renew old ac
quaintances In the Fourteenth Cavalry.
It took him six days to reach Seattle.
He planned to go on through to Van
couver, B. C, and was driving to the
dock when Mr. Dunn, who had gone on
WIM lam L. Finley.
Oregon Audubon Society for securing
permanent breeding reserves for wild
fowl In the West. Our game birds and
i - :
f p.
his trail, overtook him. Dunn got In the I
machine, took the wneei ana arvvo iu .
teleeranh office. Stepping out to wire
the Portland authorities oft Diebler's
capture, he was astonished to see Diebler
speed off.
Locked In Hotel Room.
Knowing Diebler's effects were at the
Rainier Grand Hotel, Dunn went there
and waited. Late at night Diebler ap
peared at the hotel and was again seized.
Dunn sent the machine to a garage and
took Diebler to a room, locking him in
and guarding him over Viight.
In the morning the return trip to Port
land began. Mr. Dunn pretended he
would give Diebler a chance to sell the
machine and divide the proceeds. Thus
he had no difficulty In luring him as far
as Chehalls, where a breakdown oc
curred. Dunn chanced ' to oonfide In a
mechanic who was engaged to fix the
auto that Diebler was under surveillance.
The Sheriff heard of the matter and vis
ited ' the machine. Knowing Diebler
would try to ..escape, Dunn had him
locked in the Chehalls jail. A Portland
officer was wired for by Dunn and Chi
cago was notified by the Sheriff at Che
halls,' who knew there was a reward of
1100 in the case. The result was that
Chicago insisted on having the man on
a charge of grand larceny.
Diebler's older brother, manager of the
Haines automobile repair shop, arrived
with a Chicago officer. He said he .will
get his brother out of trouble If It costs
him all he possesses.
BOY BURGLAR IS CAUGHT
CTjAREXCE coon taken while
ROBBING GROVE HOME.
Lad Who Escaped From Detention
Homo Says Oscar Grove Helped
Him in Burglary.
Portland's youngest burglar was arrested
yesterday morning at daylight, at the
home' of Herbert Grove, in University
Park. The burglar was just 12 years old.
looked even younger, was armed with a
man's size revolver, and his pockets were
filled with loot. He is Clarence Coon, son
of L. Coon, of St. John.
He was caught by Mrs. Grove, who re
strained herself from turning the infant
burglar over her knee and sent for the
police. The child made 'no effort to use
the revolver, although it was loaded and
he had every chance.
He got into the Grove home about day
break in company with Oscar Grove, 11-year-old
son of the owner of the house.
Clarence says the other boy stood guard
at the head of the stalrg while he ran
sacked the kit6hen and sitting-rooms on
the first floor. When Mrs. Grove got up,
the lookout slid down the banister and
vanished. Clarence remained and was
caught.
At the police station young Coon was
searched and quantities of buttons, fish
hooks and knicknacks of all sorts were
found. The boy did not cry or seem afraid
of the police. He admitted having tried
to burglarize the Grove -home and said
he was after money.
With young Grove and a negro boy
named David Scott, Coon escaped from
the Detention Home last Sunday. Since
then the children have been living chiefly
on vegetables stolen from gardens in Uni
versity Park. Clarence said they planned
to steal money with which to buy some
thing nice to eat.
Clarence was turned over to the
Juvenile Court authorities. The other tiny
fugitives have not been taken. So far as
known the colored boy did not take part
In the raid on the Grove home.
This was the fourth time young Coon
escaped from the Detention Home, hav
ing once been sent there for stealing a
bicycle, once for making away with a
rowboat, and another time for purloin
ing a suitcase.
Nero, City Park Lion,
to Be Manicured
Strong Case Will Be Built, Anes
thetic Administered, and Veteri
narian C'renmer Will lnre Bis
Beast's. Claws.
HOW would you like to contract for
the Job of manicuring the. nails of
old Nero, the big lion at the City Park'
Zoo? While the work may be a trifle
exciting and unusual, it is to be done,
probably early next week, and Veterin
ary Surgeon J. M. Greamer will per
form the operation. '
"Easy as pie to do," said Mayor Lane,
when asked if he would attend lns his
official and professional capacity to as
sist. "No need whatever for any help
for that Job; old Nero Is one of those
old boys that are good natured, you
see, and he is as tame as can be. Why,
you could go right Into his cage c.id
He down."
"Yes," said .a bystander, "but you
must remember that It is pretty hot
inside these days."
Parkkeeper Mische found that It is
necessary for old Nero's nails to be
trimmed, and he secured Veterinary
Creamer to perform the task. It was
at first thought that it would be best
to do the work at once, as the nails,
which have grown so long that they
are cutting the flesh in the paws, are
very painful to the beast. However,
as the cage In which Nero lives. Is not
very strong, it was deemed wise to wait
until a new and strong one is built.
The old beast will be chloroformed
for the operation. He will be driven
Into a strong cage that will Just nicely
hold him. The anaesthetic will then
be administered and the performance
wjll quickly be over. -

REPLIES TO SISTER
Mrs. Collins Would Keep Books
of Hawthorne Estate.
MOTIVE OF MRS. BOISE
Defendant Says Petitioner Wishes to
Ascertain Evidence Against Has
hand, Who Now Faces Charge
of Embezzlement.
Mrs. Catherine Collins, as secretary
of the Hawthorne estate, has filed In
the Circuit Court her answer to the
petition for a writ of mandamus which
her sister, Mrs. Whitney L Boise, re
cently brought. In ,this she says that
Mrs. Boise's motive for wishing to
examine the books and records of the
estate Is to find out what incriminat
ing evidence there Is to substantiate
the embezzlement charges now pend
ing against her husband. The latter
had charge of the estate for about nine
years, beginning in 189S.
Mrs. Collins says that Mrs. Boise is
particularly anxious to check up
Boise's bank book, which the estate
holds In its possession. She says that
Mrs. Boise has pledged 999 shares of
1000 as security for the payment of
large sums of money "appropriated
and embezzled to his own use by
Whitney t- Boise." The entire capital
ization of the company is $300,000, of
which Mrs. Boise owns a third. Her
999 shares held by the estate as se
curity for the alleged embezzlements
of the husband are worth 199,900.
During the six or seven years in
which Mrs. Boiee was secretary of the
estate she kept no books, accoording
to Mrs. Collin's allegation. The af
fairs of the estate were thereby in
volved In a tangle, which the latter
says has not yet been unraveled. She
says that as a director of the corpor
ation her sister has at all times had
the right to inspect whatever books
or ' records she pleased, but Insists
that she has no right to employ a per
sonal accountant to expert the rec
ord. She asks that the court make
an order . allowing Mrs. Boise to ex
amine the records at all reasonable
times, but under such restrictions as
the court may decide upon when the
hearing Is had. .
