TROTTER ALSO TO SPEAK Itaseball Evangelist Will Have the Assistance of Other Well Known Speakers In His Meet ing at the White Temple. SPOKANE BIDS (;OOIBY TO M NDAY WITH FONAT10N' OK flO.OOO. SPOKANE. 1Va.li.. Feb. 7. (Spe cial.) Evangelist Billy" Sunday .aid goodby to Spokane last night, his congregation sending him on his way with a thank-offering of mora than SlO.oOO. It Is a National record, for ' while Sunday has received one larger offering, it was in a city where the cost of conducting meetings was not half that borne by the people of Spokane, who in six weeks have con tributed besid.' the thank-offering, J15.O00 for the expenses of the re vival. Including the .building of the tabernacle. Sunday spoke to 9, MX) persons, all who could crowd their way in. Men were heard to offer $5 for a seat, and In one cas. a sale vas effected and the money turned into the of fering while the man who had sold his scat crowded against the trail. Interest in the arrival o? the noted evangelist, William A. Sunday; collo quially known as Billy," or "Bill." con tinues to be maintained without the least degree of falling: off. Sunday's "nine" arrives Tuesday. By the term "nine," Is meant, of course. Mr. and Mrs. Sunday and tlietr four children, making six. Mr. and Mrs. "Mel" Trot ter, and Miss Muirhouse. three more, making nine iq ail. Count 'em. Mrs. Sunday, be It known, is ateo a power as a speaker, and If there should be an "overflow" meeting: necessary on Tues day night at the White Temple it Is more than probable that Mrs. Sunday will have her talents called into play. That is one thing which keeps the base ball evangelist always keyed up to con cert pitch in his pulpit oratory his bet ter half and faithful comrade in the work Is herself an orator of marked ability. Mr. Sunday, as to denomination, is a Presbyterian. A regularly ordained and liowued minister, of that church. When it comes to "putting- fire and brimstone" over the "home plate" it la possible that "Bill's" chosen - creed may be account able for his fervor of speech; for a num ber of exceedingly liery exhorters in re ligious history have been Presbyterian. In the event of Mrs. Sunday's deliver ing an address it will be the first time that Portland has ever heard her, as well as her gifted husband. Promi nent church women in this city have ex pressed a keen desire to hear one of their sex who has reaped such fame as a pulpit talker, and should the overflow meeting be provided for. It is to be hoped Mrs. Sunday may consent to speak. "Mel" Trotter, who speaks Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the White Tem ple, has also been conferred with as to a possible noon-day meeting Tuesday, to be held at the assembly room of the Y. M. C. A. building. Mr. Trotter may talk to the business men of Portland, and if he does, he will "talk right out in meeting." His experience as a business man, before entering the ministry via the rum route, makes him a tart and snappy exposer of the foibles of modern commerce; and his remarks will be peppered with the pungency of untamed eloquence, and salted with the savor of practical wisdom. Come and hear "Mel' stir up the animals at the Y. M. C. A. if he should make up his mind to appear. Miss Muirhouse. the ninth member of the party, has a reputation for eloquence and personal magnetism which has pre ceded her from the cities and towns where she has spoken in the cause of religion. She has appeared many times as a pul pit orator, and Is very highly spoken of for her talents. Altogether, the Sunday aggregation Is a company of "all-stars," as it were, in the way of oratory. They will be prepared- for any emergency In the way of overflows or undertows, and there will be no scarcity of eloquence In Portland on Tuesday next. Don t forget "Bill. The unique, the positive, the annihilating. the scorching, the only "Bill." Services will begin at 8 o'clock P. M. at the White Temple, and If you're not in your seat then you lose out on hear ing "Bill." Spokane Folks at Medford. MEDFORD, Or., Feb. 7. (Special.)

WILLS AFTER TIGER Councilman to Continue His North End Investigation. MORE RAIDS ARE PLANNED City Father Declares It Looks as Tliough Gambling Is Protect- -WH1 Take I7p Rooming-House EtU. ed- In the Municipal Court this morning there will appear for trial 35 men who were apprehended In Councilman A. N. Wills' personally conducted raid upon the North End Saturday night. They are charged with gambling, and those who do not forfeit their bonds by falling to appear will be vigorously prosecuted. However, the proprietors of the places where these men were arrested will not be tried, for they were not Included in the list captured in the police dragnet. Coun cilman Wills says he will cause warrants) to be Issued for their arrest, but yester day no effort was made to apprehend tnem. But the strangest feature of the case is the complete silence of Mayor Lane. He positively refused to talk last night con cerning the raid, and it Is said to be the first time during his official career that he has maintained silence when such charges as "wide-open gambling." "pro tection" and "understanding" are made In connection with his administration. Will Continue His Inquiry. Such charges are numerous. Council man Wills does not hesitate to stand sponsor for them, but declines to specify TO SHIPPERS Send us oil of your chickens, both hens and springs, alive or dressed. We are using unlimited quantities. We want also large ouantlties of pork and veal this week. We quote the following prices for good quality produce; it must arrive In sweet, fresh condi tion.

Portland, Oresjon. the persons alleged to be responsible. He says he will cause a rigid investigation to be made. "It certainly looks to me like there must have been an understanding with some one," Mr. Wills said, "for the games were running wide open and no effort seemed to be made to keep any one from seeing what was going on." It is said especial effort will be made during the progress of the investigation to ascertain the alleged reasons for inac tivity of that branch of the detective de partment that is supposed to look after gambling. Detective Sergeant Kay is in absolute charge . of that branch, it was said at headquarters yesterday, and is supposed to direct raids upon those places where gambling is supposed to be con ducted. "The police told me last night," said Councilman Wills, "that they knew noth ing about the existence of gambling in the city, and further said it was next to im possible to secure a conviction in Munici pal Court. They said they could never find a game where money was changing hands. Saw Money Change Hands. "I watched the games In Erickson's and Blazier's only a few minutes last night, and saw several men pay out their money. It wasn't difficult to see It, for the cash ier seemed to make no effort to conceal what he was doing. Nor did the players seem in the least perturbed. Every one acted as if gambling was conducted regu larly at the two places and that there was no need to worry about a possible raid." Councilman Wills has not completed his effort to purify the cityl He really did not know such conditions existed, he said, for the Mayor has repeatedly insisted that it was a closed 'town. Mr. Wills has hardly begun his crusade. It Is said. After ridding the city of public or open gam bling, or at least showing the police that such things exist, he will devote his ef forts to other directions of alleged neglh gence on the part of officials. Go After Rooming-Houses. The next crusade will include the room ing houses, alleged hotels, that are con ducted as thoroughly disreputable resorts in nearly all parts of the city. Council man Wills refused last night to state when the next raid will take place, but said that it will likely be directed at the places that have sprung up like mush rooms throughout the city since the red light district of the North End was sup posed to have been abolished. Council man Wills has been Informed that in case of such a crusade he may not find the old North End places closed as tightly as Mayor Lane professes to believe they are. Chief Gritzmacher believes there is no open gambling in Portland. His men have made numerous arrests, in fact have caused arrests whenever they had reason to believe gambling was In prog ress, he says, but have encountered great difficulty in securing convictions. "If there Is any gambling in Portland I don't know where it is, he said. "We arrest persons whenever we believe they are gambling, and the department has done good work in suppressing that form of violation of the law." Among those who were arrested In the North End raid were: John Hoover, Joe Smith. Will Harris, Nick Dollar, John Johnson. Fred Fain. George Stevens, G. T. Downs. S. J. Wood. S. F. Montgomery, J. A.

Then hurrah for Smith, old Oregon's son, He has put those Eastern chaps on the run. All of Smith 's men are honest and neat, And take great pleasure in selling Smith's meat. Courteous treatment you'll receive, I'm sure, Along with the meat so good and pure. These boys scream for Smith with vim, For he saved their families from the jungle's din. Now, farmers, attention!
