MAYOR TO BE APPOINTED
Harper Keen In Flight by Auto at
Santa. Barbara, but Destination
Is Unknown Nobody Wants
Place for Indefinite Term.
IXS ANGELES. Cal.. March 14. (Spe
cial.) The tangled municipal affairs of
Los Angeles appeared at another angle
late last night when District Attorney
Fredericks ordered the summoning of a
special grand Jury to take a hand in the
investigations that will be necessary be
fore the city resumes its normal condi
tion. Mr. Fredericks held a long consulta
tion with the Judges of the Superior
Court before issuing the order for a
grand Jury, which will be called to in
vestigate tiie charges of E. T. Earl, who
published in his paper, the Express,
statements that he had information of
wrongdoing on the part of Harper and
some of hia . a-ppointees by which he
forced the Mayor to resign. This evi
dence Mr. Earl has not divulged and he
. Bays that he agreed with Harper not to
divulge it if Harper would resign.
. On the strength of this published state
ment it is now charged that Earl Is1
guilty of compounding u felony, inas
much as he insists that the information
he has is not in connection with Har
per's personal conduct, but with the con
duct of the affairs of the city. Freder
icks says that Earl was asked to give
evidence against Harper before the
grand jury that roundly scored Harper,
but returned no indictments, and that
.can aid not produce such evidence.
Earl Has Evidence.
To those who have watched the situa
tion during the past few days there is no
doubt that Earl has some incriminating
evidence, or Harper, Kern and Broad
head would not have quit the fight and
resigned to Earl so promptly when he
told them to. The summoning of the
grand Jury, it is reported officially, will
begin tomorrow morning.
The City Council Is also due today to
appoint a Mayor to fill Harper's unex
pired term, whatever that may be de
termined to be. No candidates except
Alexander, the recall candidate, are wil
ling to accept the place if it is to last
only until the date of the recall elec
tion, March 2S. It is believed tonight
that whoever is appointed will be named
"to fill the unexpired term," and then
the fight will come into the courts, when,
after an election Is held, the successful
candidate tries to take office.
The Mayor' will hold his seat until the
matter is threshed out, although injunc
tion suits will doubtless tie up city busi
ness for a long time.
Dromgold Defeats Recallers.
Councilman Dromgold, one of the mem
bers of the Council, threatened with re
call if he fails to vote for Alexander,
defeated the recallers in his district
after an all-night battle at a meeting
in his ward and early this morning he
"was permitted to follow his own dictates
In the choice of a successor to Harper.
The recallers declare that unless the
Alexander forces win tomorrow, the city
will be delivered bound into the hands of
Harrlman and the Southern Pacific and.
the great aqueduct, the consolidation with
San Pedro and other enterprises will be
delayed if not killed.
Harper was reported last ni?ht in
flight northward, being seen passing
through Santa Barbara in an automobile.
His destination Is unknown, even to his
legal advisers, who were dumbfounded
by his resignation.
Warm Fight in Council.
The fight in the City Council today
promises to be a warm one. Five mem
foers are supposed to he lined up for
George A. Smith as Harper's successor,
but the recallers declare that he cannot
be elected. Niles Pease, president of the
Council, and Alexander are the most
promising candidates aside from Smith.
But four of the Council declare under
no circumstances will they vote for Alex
ander, and it is doubted if more than
three are willing to compromise on
Pease. It will require five votes to elect.
The recallers are busy tonight trying to
secure one of the live, supposed to be
for Smith, to elect Alexander.
Things Still Up In Air.
At a late hour tonight the political situ
ation is still "up in the air." . So far,
though a host of rumors has been
making things interesting, nothing defi
nite has transpired that Would seem to
indicate the Council has any particular
favorite. The Republican members of
that body will hold a caucus early to
morrow morning and from the present
outlook the dark horse, probably W M
Bowen, stands the best chance of win
ning out in the general scrimmage that
is sure to follow the call to order.
It is hinted in certain quarters that
pressure is being brought to bear upon
Alexander to induce him to permit his
name to be removed from the ticket, but
this cannot be substantiated and he re
fuses to discuss the matter at all.
SALOON FORCES JOLTED
Cowlitz County Commissioners Re
fuse to Renew Licenses.
KALAMA. Wash.. March 14 fas
cial.) Another impetus was given the
anti-saloon forces In Cowlitz County
in a resolution adopted by the Board of
County Commissioners at their last
session to. the effect that they would
not grant any saloon licenses during
their term of office, which Is two
years. The- resolution was introduced
by Commissioner G. L. Buland. of Cas
tle Rock, and was promptly adopted.
This sweeping order will affect all
the saloons outside of Incorporated
towns, since all of them have consid
erably less than one year to run on
their old licenses.

A happy conclusion of the dedicatory
services of the new gymnasium of the
Montavilla Methodtet Episcopal Church
yesterday afternoon was the announce
ment that 700 had been subscribed,
which enabled the building to he dedi
cated and turned over to the trustees
practically free of debt.
Two services were conducted in the
gymnasium, one at 10 A. M. for the
boys and girls of 14 years and under,
and the dedication at 3 P. M. Rev. W.
B. Hollingshead. di&trict superintendent,
presided, assisted by Rev. Harold Oberg,
the pastor. Rev. J. H. McDougall, of
Mount Tabor; Rev. W. T. Buster, of
Sunnyslde; Rev. D. A. Waters, of Patton
M. EL Church, assisted in the exercises.
Walter Goss. president of the Acme Mil
ling Company, and Samuel P. Lockwood, a
well-known Portland business man, made
brief addresses, strongly commending the
erection of the gymnasium as a means
for the development of the boys and
girls, and congratulated both the pastor
and congregation on the fine' gymnasium.
Judge Robert G. Morrow, of the Circuit
Court, made a short talk. In which he
said the community could not have made
a better investment In behalf of the boys
and girls and young people generally.
Dr. Hollingshead told something of the
work of Rev. Mr. Oberg in the erection
of the building, and Rev. Mr. Oberjf
told how the plan had expanded from the
shed that cost from $400 to J500, to the
fine building that had cost $3700. It orig
inated In the efforts of the Comradery
Club of 90 boys, who had asked Rev.
Oberg to help provide a place for them.
The plans then grew from this beginning
to the larger gymnasium. Most of the
burden rested on Rev. Mr. Oberg, and
he has averaged for several months from
15 to 20 miles a day in canvassing among
the Portland business men and laying
before them the plans to provide for
the young people of Montavilla a place
for their moral and physical develop
ment. W. L. Bartlett, who has also been
active, told how the plans had been
worked out. T. S. McDaniels then took
the platform anil handled the financial
part of the programme, so that with
assistance of Rev. W. T. Euster and Rev.
J. W. McDougall. $700 was soon sub
scribed by the audience.
Classes will be organized Tuesday
night. March 16. and these will be under
charge of an experienced Instructor from
the Portland Y. M. C. A. The young
people of Montavilla now have a place
where they can spend their evenings in
a profitable manner.

SAN FRANCISCO. March 14.-Spe-cial.)
Announcement of the engagement
of Gunglro Aoki. the young Japanese
who may or may not be a son of Gen
eral Aoki, and Miss Helen Gladys
Emery, daughter of Archdeacon John A.
Emery, of the Episcopal Church, ha
not only attracted worldwide attention,
but unpleasant threats have been made
as to what will happen if the Japanese
persists in carrying" out his plan of mar
rying the lady in question.
Corte Madera, a little town In Marin
County. Just across the bay. where the
Emery's make their home, lias been
aroused because Miss Emery was seen
publicly kissing Aoki at the railway sta
tion. Members of the Women's Guild,
of which Mrs. Emery is a member, went
to their pastor to see if a repetition of
such a spectacle could not be stopped,
and when they found there was no rem
edy, some of the young men of Corte
Madera promised to take the matter into
their own hands.
In brief, they have caused it to be an
nounced that in case Aoki shows up in
Corte Madera in company with -Miss
Emery, he will be given an involuntary
ride on a rail to the edge of t?ie town,
and that, if he further persists, he will
be tarred and feathered.
Society, particularly that of the Epis
copal Church, feels that its decency has
been outraged and is determined to pre
vent the marriage if that Is possible.
Mrs. Emery, who has stood firmly with
her daughter through all the notoriety
that has come as a result of the en
gagement, said today that the marriage
would surely take place. There is much
talk that the matter will be taken be
fore the church as a body, in view of
the official connection of Arclwleaeon
Emery, in order to see if that body can
not take steps to induce Mrs. Emery to
withdraw her views and declare that the
marriage should not take place.
The brothers" of the Japanese, who de
clare that he is no relation of General
Aoki. say that a marriage would be out
of all bounds and declare that they will
forbid their brother to proceed with It.

INTEREST IN JULY WHEAT
Predictions Are High Figures Will
Prevail Bull Theories All Fail,
but Money Still Theirs Little
IIoie of Any Change.
CHICAGO, March 14. (Special.) Prac
tically all of the developments in the
grain trade during the last week have
been bearish, except the price. The
latter appears as completely in the con
trol of the big leaders In the trade here
as at any time since the big deal began
five months ago.
That there has been no unheaval in
May delivery prices since the bearish
Government crop report bame out early
in the week is probably due entirely to
lack of desire on the part of the leaders,
who wisely abstain from putting prices
to a point that would make them more
of a target for the individual owner than
they are at present. Insofar as the rank
and file of the speculative trade is con
cerned, a large portion Is more disposed
to follow than oppose the big local
leader, while those that are not have
been so badly punished that their cour
age, ability and resources are ineffectual
to withstand any ordinary onslaught.
Will Deal Go Into July?
One of the present pertinent inquiries
is whether or not Patten will carry his
deal over Into July. HLs own utter
ances, as well as the view of those most
intimate with him. Indicate that his sup
port of July delivery will be mostly
moral and sentimental. It Is hardly to
be believed that one of his buniness
acumen will expose himself to precisely
the dangers that broke Letter, whose
available means were then probably
larger than the Patten forces can com
mand. There is little doubt, however, that
Patten has brought himself to believe
sincerely that July wheat will rule very
high, and he has as a precedent the
strength shown last .year. when, as is
fairly probable this year, the old crop
finished with reserves low and the trade
hungry for the new chop of wheat. With
out actual and sustained support for July
wheat. It is highly probable that the
trade will soon tire of the May delivery
prices now current and that the farmer
will let go a large quantity or wheat.
Arrivals Continue Stroug.
Despite the frequent storms, primary
arrivals have been liberal enough to

The anti-cigarette advocates could in
sist that their bill be submitted for
further consideration, although It was
killed by indefinite postponement at
the regular session.
The bill providing for an additional

semi-annual examinations of all state
banks, would be urged by the special
auditing committee by which It was
introduced at the regular session only
to he killed in the Senate after hav
ing passed the House. Dissatisfaction
with the law in some sections which
gives the Fish Commission exclusive
control of the streams of the state in
the Interest of the fishing industry,
would find expression in a demand
that this statute be repealed or exten- !
sively amended.
Friends of the Oregon Historical So
ciety probably would Join in the
wholesale demands for appropriation
of public funds and insist that this
organization be given $150,000 for a
permanent home. Such a bill was de
feated at the regular session. Advo
cates of the construction of roads at
the Joint expense of state, county and
property-owners would be expected to
revive the Johnson bill, which was
massacred in the House during the
concluding- hours of the regular ses
sion. Disappointed In the failure of the
Bingham resolution at the regular ses
sion, the enterprising- East Side resi
dents of this city would probably ask
for the enactment of a proposed con
stitutional amendment providinjr for
the removal of the state capital from
Salem to Portland. This would prove
a i-apltal idea, for consuming time In
heated debate. Representative Heals,
of Tillamook, who has twice been de
feated in his efforts to have enacted a
bill requiring the assessment of timber
lands on a cruised basis, probably
would spring his. pet measure again.
Hughes, of Marion, would seek to have
enacted his $300- tax exemption bill,
which, after passing the House at the
regular session, was consigned to the
graveyard in the Senate. Bryant's bill,
authorizing the maintenance of agri
cultural dlFtrlct fairs at the expense

they are located, could be considered
reasonable legislation for further con
sideration, although It was rejected by
the Senate at the regular session.

Theatrical Man and Broker Save
I'etlcwtrian l-Vom Drubbing on
Portland Height.
Calvin Ileilig. theatrical manager, and
B. C. Meurs. broker, rallied to the sup
port of a pedestrian who was being
threatened oy a party of automobillsts
whose machine had been the target of a
largo rock hurled by the pedestrian after
he had narrowly escaped being run down
by tho speeding machine on Portland
Heights, yesterday afternoon. liut for
the determined interference of the man
ager and broker the pedestrian In the
cuiie, who-e name, was lost to history in
the excitement of the Incident, might
have gotten a sound drubbing.
Five amply proportioned . individuals
whose courage and love of peace doubt
less had been disturbed by some occult
leak in the Sunday lid were arrayed
against one unsupported wayfarer, prob
ably returning from church, when tho
theatrical manager and broker cast their
lot with the smaller force.
Thrt difficulty arose over the conduct
of the itiuomohilist in making what ap
peared to be an attempt to lower ti-.
world's record up Ford street, eolith of
the bridge. Mr. Heilig and Mr. and Mr.
M'-ars crossed tle street Just as tli
car whizzed by and Immediately behind
them came the pedestrian wjio escaped
the speeding machine by a fraction of an
Inch, more or le.ss.
Instead of dropping to his knees in
prayer at iil narrow escape from death
or serious injury the pedestrian gave pltv
to l:i ire. In a flash he laid hold of a.
big rock and sent it hurtling after the
machine. The rock struck the hack of
tha car. marring the tine polish and the
machine, was brought to a standstill.
Tho a moists seemed on the point of
climbing out and exterminating the out-
I raged pedestrian when Messrs. Hellig

If tho pedestrian Han molested they would

however, having vanished as soon as
the lone wayfarer got help they srt their
