MORE TROUBLE EXPECTED
FrrichlhantUrrfi Take tp Charter
Granted by International As.socia
Hon anil Seek Recognition
as Longshoremen.
Labor conditions on the Portland
waterfront assumed a s?r!ous aspect
, yenterday morning, when members of
Longshoremen's I'nfnn No. 6 attacked
the men sent by another union to dis
charge the steamship Homer, at the
foot of Oak street. The flhtina; was
of such a nature as to cause A pent
Baker to send In a riot call, and It was
with difficulty that quiet was restored
The new men retired In (food form and
members of Local Nimb?r 6. proceeded
to discharge the steamer.
At noon a serious riot was only
averted by the prompt action of Har
bormaster Snfler. He anticipated trou
ble when the stung would knock off
for the noon hour and had a squad of
plain clothes men In waiting for de
velopments. Members of the routed
union were about 100 strong and the
friends of those employed In discharg
ing the steamer sent out for reinforce
ments. Pefore the row started Captain
Speler served notice on the leadurs of
each faction that he would take a hand
h soon as any move was made by
rlthtr party. On this Information each
side withdrew.
Longshore work in Portland has been
done for many years by the members
of two pinions. One. No. 5. handles all
work on the steamers of the Portland
Jfe Asiatic Steamship i'ompany and of
the Pan Kranclsro & Portland Steam
ship Company. No. $ deals exclusively
with the out.-lde steamers and off-shore
vesels. Some time during the early
months of the year 1 !. Lnca I No. 6
(then known as withdrew from the
International Association. A few
months ago the local 'union joined with
the other unions on the Pacific Coast.
A contract with the stevedores was
made after tfto conclave in Portland,
but was dated a month back, whereby
members of the .in ion were bound not
to Interfere In any way with labor
troubles for a period of two years.
The charter fmm the International
Longshoremen. Marine and Transport
Workers Association. Is dated 1W1 and
has never been revoked. luriog the
busy times, when members of Local
No. 6 were not available for work, it
wa3 the habit to employ freight hand
lers, sailors and outsiders to w-trk for
the union. Business became strtw and
the freight handk rs applied for per
mission to work under the charter
granted by the International Associa
tion, which was allowed. This charter
Is approved by the American Federa
tion of Labor.
Armed with thl". authority, members
of the new union applied to Agent Ba
ker yesterd iy morning for the work
on the Homer. They went on board
only to be assailed within a few mln
utts by members of the old union, who
chilmed the ship. After a short and
practically bloodless fight members of
the new union retired and the work
was taken up by the old outfit. .
A nerfr as can be learned the charter
under which the freight handlers took
up longshore work Is dated 1901, and
the number of the union is 334. When
the old union withdrew from the as
sociation in one McDonald kept
the charter.
Trouble was anticipated .last night
when the men knocked off. but the
presence of officers held any trouble in
check.

CASE IS UP
Johnson Charged With Steal
ing From Government.
JUMPING MINING CLAIM
Serious Charge Against Baker City
Man Who Filed on Land for Tim
ber and Worked It for Min
eralJury Summoned.
The first case in the United States Dis
trict Court at the November term will
be called before Judge Wolverton at 10
o'clock this morning. It Is the case In
which Richard Johnson is charged with
cutting about 75 cords of wood on Gov
ernment land in Southern Oregon. The
defendant's true name is said to be J.
W. John?on, although he was indicted as
Richard Johnson. There is a dispute be
tween the Government officials and the
defendant as to the amount of wood he
actually stole from the Government.
Johnson declares that he did not take
more than 25 cords.
Probably the most important case to
be heard at ' this term will be that in
which J. W. Parker, assistant cashier of
a Baker City bank, is charged with un
lawfully Jumping a mining claim. Parker
is charged with having perjured himself
when he made an affidavit declaring
that the claim in question had not been
improved as a mining property and that
the land war more valuable for its tim
ber land than for mineral purposes. He
is said afterwards to have tiled on the
land as a timber claim. There are a
number of other cases of a similar na
ture pending in the United States Court.
Frequent complaint had been made at
thi office of United States Attorney Mc
Court where applicants for timber land
had Jumped land that had been filed on
as a mining claim and was being devel
oped as such. As a result several Infor
mations were filed against the accused
claim-Jumpers.
The trial Jurors, who had been sum
moned for the term, assembled In the
Fedoral Court yesterday afternoon. After
a number had been excused from Jury
service, the others were excused until
10 o'clock this morning. Those excused
for the term were: James Carothers.

Exception to Daly's Libel of Macki
naw Not Allowed.
United States Judge Wolverton yester
day dismissed the exceptions to the com
plaint in the llhel suit of Harry Daly,
against the Mackinaw. Daly Is the man
who shot and killed Harry Denny a
week ago. He is now Incarcerated in the
County Jail, awaiting an investigation
of his crime by the grand Jury.
Some time ago Daly brought a suit for
libel again the boat for J5250 for in
juries he sustained through the alleged
negligence of the boat crew. He charged
that by allowing the anchor to drag
while the verse! was changing Its berth,
the ferry cable was picked up. striking
Daly and Injuring him severely. Counsel
for the libeled boat excepted to the com
plaint on the grounds that, since Daly,
at the time of the accident, was stand
ing on a pontoon wlfich was secured In
place by fastenings to the shore and
for that reason the Injury occurred on
land. The Jurisdiction of the court was
questioned on thore allegations..
In dismissing the exceptions to Daly's
complaint Judge Wolverton held that the
court had Jurisdiction in ill such cases
unless it was shown that the fastenings
of the pontoon were sufficient to Impress
upon It the character of land and to di
vest it of nautical significance.
By reason of the Injuries sustained at
the time of the accident Daly was crip
pled permanently.
MIST ACCOUNT FOR LAND SOLD
Court Holds Advantage Was Taken
in Selling Farm for Debt.
Ia the suit of John Fredburg against
L. Barnum. Judge Wolverton. In the
United States Court, yesterday rendered
an opinion directing that Barnum be re
quired to account to Fredburg for
J1515.42. the difference between the rea
sonable value of property owned at one
time by Fredburg and the price of about
KM0 acres In Sherman County.
In the transaction Barnum, who was
local agent at Moro for the Wasco Ware
house Milling Company, was associated
with E. O. McCoy, the company's gen
eral manager. Fredburg had an account
with the milling company and. through
McCoy and Barnum, received various
sums of money and other credit until his
aggregate Indebtedness to the company
amounted to Jll.ia4.81. exclusive of. a
prior mortgage for J3000 In favor of the
State School Land Board with which the
land was further encumbered. Barnum
had general management of Fredburg's
affairs and when the indebtedness
reached the sum of tll.OOO. he and Mc
Coy, by paying Fredburg $1250 in cash.
Induced the latter to deed to them his
farm as security for the Indebtedness.
Subsequently they sold the farm for
about rJL'.OOO.

TO DISCUSS STREET WORK
East Side to Take Vp Project for
Municipal Rock Crusher.
A committee appointed by the East
Side Business Men s Club, at the re
quest of Councilman Kellaher, Is ar
ranging to call a convention of mem
bers of the various East Side push clubs
at a place and date yet to be fixed, to
consider the question of the municipal
ownership of a rock-crushing plant.
The plan thus far adopted Is to Invite
Ave or more members of each of these
clubs and others Interested, to come to
gether and talk over the advisability
of the city owning and operating such
plant.
At the last meeting of the East SideJ
ID
Business Men's Club, Mr. Kellaher Bpoke
of the importance of the city owning
a plant by which it could furnish
crushed rock for street work at a low
price to street contractors, and by
which the cost of street work would be
greatly reduced. For some time Mr.
kellaher has been gathering Informa
tion from cities all over the United
States concerning their methods of im
proving streets, and has a vast awount
of data on the subject covering the ma
terial used and Its cost, how furnished
and how streets are maintained, the
gist of which will be submitted to the
convention.
Would Trade License
for Divorce .
Woman Flnda She Has Wrong
Husband and Wants to Go
Back to Former Sponae.
BECAUSE her present husband earns
but 50 a month, while a former
spouse earned $90, and because husband
No. 2 married her only for her property,
Mrs. Sanna Louise Bootsman made an
unsuccessful attempt yesterday morning
to trade her marriage certificate for a
divorce.
She made her troubles known to Deputy
County Clerk Christensen, with the re
mark that if things hadn't gone too far
she would like to have the entire trans
action cancelled. When told that it would
cost her $50 or $75 to obtain a divorce,
she pleaded lack of cash.
"I was married by Judge Olsen." said
the woman, with ajwang which indicated
her German descent. "There is no seal
on the certificate, so I thought it was
no good anyway. My man said yester
day he married me for my property. Then
he is not strong enough to take care of
me. My man has to have more vages.
He was sorry he got married to me be
cause he didn't get the house and lots.
They belong to my mother and me. I
think It would be better to get married
to another man.
"He said he would rather have me get
killed than live. He tried to bite me on
the shoulder. I married four months ago.
I get the wrong one. I want to marry
the. fellow I had before. He gets $90 and
this man only gets $."i0. I told him last
night. 'I am sorry I marry you. I will
get a divorce when I get the money."
A marriage license was issued July 31.
last,. to Cornelius Bootsman, 572 Sherlock
avenue, 30 years old, to marry Sanna
Iuise Jacobsen. 29 years old. This is
the one Mrs. Bootsman wanted cancelled.

burglar in their home, at 190 McMIllen
avenue. Mr. and Mrs. W. Mallory arose
and attacked the fellow. The head of the
household tried to Imprison the Intruder
in the bathroom, but the burglar, a negro
named Kichard Chrlstnpher. wrenched
the door open and would have escaped
had not Mrs. Mallory thrust the barrels
of a broken shotgun into her husbands
hands at this moment. Mallory' struck
the negro two hard blows across the
head which staggered, but did not fell
him Rushing back- Into the bathroom
and locking the door, the thief opened a
window and dropped to the ground, 20
feet b'low. He was dazed, however, and
the police, arriving shortly afterwards,
located him with ease.
Running to the front of the house, the
burglar seized his shoes, which he had
left there and ran away. Patrolman
F.aney. who arrived a few minutes later,
took up the trail, and with the aid of his
electric flash light tracked the fugitive
two blocks westward to a vacant lot over
looking the river. The negro ran out
from this lot and sprinted southward.
Raney overtook him at the east approach
of the Steel bridge and arrested him.

Oldest "Newsboy
,99
in the World
Mr. Lafayette Lemons, 85 Years of
Age and Still a "Newsy," Is One
of the Noted Characters of
Fort Branch, Indiana.
Mr. Lemons Is a Warm Friend of Eli
jah Lincoln, a Living First Cousin
of the Immortal President, "Afce"
Lincoln He Is Also a Vet
eran of the Mexican War.
Speaking of his health, " Uncle
Lafe" recently said: "I guess I ought
to live to see 95 at least, for I enjoy
perfect health. I am 85 years of age
and have used Duffy's Pure Malt
Whi&key as my only medicine for the
past eight years. I have received ex
cellent benefit from it. I take it
three times a day regularly, and it
keeps me strong and heart y.-
"I am the oldest newsboy in the
State of Indiana, and I believe the
oldest in the world. If there is any
older I hope he will see this inter
view and write me. I walk six miles
every day. I have been in the news
business "for ten years, and handle ex
clusively for our town six daily pa
pers. "I know that I could not do the
work and keep as strong and healthy
as I do if it were not for your great
medicine, and I heartily recommend
it to all, both old and young, yho
want a pure, invigorating tonic stim
ulant to keep them strong in their
youth and youthful in their old age."
Thousands of men and women,
who have passed the four-score mark,
tpll Hie same storv as Mr. Lemons
about what Duffy's Pure Malt AVhis-
key has done toward renewing their
youth- and keeping them vigorous,
hale and hearty and in possession of
all their faculties. As a leading doc
tor says,' the secret of the whole thing
is that Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey,
if taken as prescribed, drives out all
disease germs, invigorates the brain,
enriches the blood, quickens the cir

You can depend upon a quick

KEFLEX AILMENTS.
Often the condition appearing to
bo the chief disorder Is only a re

other disease. Weakness sometimes
comes from varicocele or stricture;
skin and bone diseases result from
blood poison taint, and physical

standing functional disorder. My
long experience in treating men
enables me to determine the exact
conditions that exist and to treat
accordingly, thus removing every
damaging cause and its effects.
