PHYSICIANS LET OUT
Story and Gellert Dropped as
School Inspectors.
NEW MEN ARE APPOINTED
Xrs. J. G. Abele and Ii. J. Wolf
A airfoil by Health Board to Suc
ceed Officials Who Had Been
Publicly Criticised.
The City Board of Health yester
day morning declined to re-elect either
Dr. L. & Story or Dr. a M. Gellert as
school Inspectors, but Instead named
Drs. J. G. Abele and L. J. Wolf. A
charge of misconduct In office was
lodged against Dr. Story, and although
he was present and denied any in
tentional wrong-doing, Mayor Lane as
chairman of the board, told the young
physician that he did a very unwise
thing to acept fees from parents of
school children coming under his of
ficial jurisdiction.
Dr. Gellert was not present when the
board took up the consideration of in
spectors, although he was at the City
Hall for an hour before the meeting.
It had been alleged by Councilman
Bennett that Dr. Gellert commanded
certain schoolteachers to examine their
pupils, instead of making the examina
tions himself.
' Dr. Story was present, and was asked
if he had anything to say. He ex
plained in his own way about the fac
simile of a postal card sent out by him
to parents In the Thompson School dis
trict, published in The Oregonian of
Sunday. The card was signed by Dr.
Story and peremptorily ordered two
children to be sent to his office "for
further treatment." He said the card
was not e. fair sample of those sent
out by him, and also said that the
parents of the children had previously
asked him to prescribe for their chil
dren, as he said they had no family
physician. The parents, however, say
they did have a family physician, and
objected to the command to send their
children to Dr. Story's office.
Mayor Lane, as chairman fit the
board, asked Dr. Story what the latter
meant to convey by his statement. Dr.
Story replied that he wanted the board
to understand that he endeavored to
do his offical work properly, and had
no Intention of wrong-doing. The
Mayor then told the young physician
that the act of accepting fees from
parents of children in the public
schools could not help in resulting in
trouble for himself and the board, and
told Dr. Story frankly that he had
made a bad mistake.
The board then elected Drs. Abele
and Wolf as Inspectors, and postponed
election of the other two allowed un
der an ordinance. These will be elect
ed at a subsequent meeting. Mrs. Ra
chel D. Shatto,. who has given excel
lent satisfaction as school nurse, was
unanimously re-elected. Under the
new plan, the Inspectors will work
during the forenoon only. They will
receive $50 a month each.
The board indorsed a bill now pend
ing before the Legislature, the pro
visions of which are calculated to pro
hibit the Indiscriminate free distribu
tion of samples of medicine, the throw
ing of packages of such stuff Into
yards and onto porches. It was agreed
by 'the members that this practice Is
bad. much suffering and many deaths
having resulted from It. Children, ig
norant of the deadly poison containe I
in the packages. It Is said, have eaten
of the contents and have died.
DEFEHDS - EAST SIOE SPAN
DESIGNER SAYS CITY SHOfLT)
ACCEPT NEW BRIDGE.
J. A. Kahn Arrives From Ietrolt
and Takes Hand In Controvresy.
Minor Repairs Necessary.
J. A. Kahn, of Kahn Bros., design
ers of the East Twenty-eighth-street
reinforced concrete bridge across Sul
livan's Gulch, dropped into Portland
from Detroit, Mich., yesterday morn
ing and gave out some new Informa
tion regarding that structure. There
has been a long controversy between
Mayor Lane and his Executive Board
of seven members, and the Northwest
Bridge Works, the contracting firm,
as to the value of the job and the
quality of the workmanship and the
concrete. Mr. Kahn told more facts
about the matter in a brief space of
time than the bridge committee has
been able to collect in two months of
painstaking search and the payment of
$500 for three experts, as well as nu
merous special sessions, trips of In
spection and earnest endeavor to set
tle the matter and settle It right.
The bridge Is an excellent piece of
work, said Mr. Kahn. In talking it
over with the Mayor and members of
the bridge committee at the Mayor's
office yesterday afternoon. He had
Just been over to Inspect the bridge.
There are a few defects In It. he ex
plained, but none very -serious. .The
concrete Is fine, but It should have
been puddled In. he stated. Instead of
being dropped from the . top of the
columns: But the general condition
of the bridge Is splendid, he said, and
he had never seen any better piece of
workmanship. He held firmly to the
belief that the structure is a good one.
and said he would, if in the city's em
ploy, accept It. providing the contrac
tors would repair the abutment wing
on the south end, which bears a big
crack. This, he said, could easily be
repaired by the placing of a new con
crete wall and the tying together of
the wings on either side by concrete
and steel bars.
Mr. Kahn said that, wherever the
contracting firm departed from the
plans and specifications In the build
ing of the bridge, to save money, the
sum saved should be paid over to the
city. There was an omission of expan
sion joints on the ends of the bridge,
which were called for in the plans and
specifications, and these, he said,
should have been put in, although he
personally did not believe very strong
ly in expansion Joints he having built
or seen not less than 3000 buildings
and bridges, and said that It is diffi
cult to tell Just what purpose an ex
pansion Joint serves; but the plans
called for them, and they should have
been provided In the execution of the
work.
City Engineer Taylor, under whose
general supervision the bridge was
constructed for the city, was present
at the meeting, and seemed pleased
with the statements made by Mr. Kahn.
Mr. Taylor said that he regarded the
results of the work on the columns
of the bridge as very satisfactory,
even though the concrete was not pud
dled. The bridge Is valued at $71,000. and
before It is accepted by the Executive
Board on behalf of the city and or
dered paid for. Mayor Lane is deter
mined it shall be in first-class condi
tion. The contracting company, by the
president, J. R. Bowles, declares the
work was all done well, and that what
ever defects there are in the bridge
are due to the faults of the plans and
specifications.
SEAT SALE BEATS RECORD

At least one place in Portland has
been busy during the past 24 hours.
The box-office of the Helllg theater
was simply swamped yesterday with
throngs of people who were Intent
upon getting the magical pasteboards
which entitle the holder to admission
to the big up-town theater. Manager
"Billy" Pangle, and his assistants,
Fred Bailey and George Clem, were
busier than cranberry merchants all
day and even the fascinating young
stenographer was set to work answer
ing telephone communications which
kept up a continual Jingling of bells.
The lineup for the Sothern seat sale
which opened yesterday morning began
Monday night before the last act . of
Lucia and when the box-office opened
yesterday morning it reached down to
Fifteenth street and turned the corner.
At the same time there was a long
line of prospective buyers of grand
opera seats stretching out in the other
direction, down Washington, toward
Thirteenth.
There has not been such a sale here
since the first appearance of "Ben
Hur," some four years ago. From the
present outlook there will be nothing
left for the Sothern engagement by

ternoon there was not a seat to be had
for "La Boheme" and but a scattering
few for the other performances. The
sale of seats for these two performan
ces is significant of the prosperity of
the community for both attractions
