ELDER BACKS IVIN'S STORY
Kx-Prowcutor Accuses Judge of
Giving Decision That Betting
Man ot (Janiblcr Sick
ness Disables McCarren.
' YORK, Oct. 13. The principal
engagement today In the political war
fare preceding the municipal election
was a sensational attack upon William
J. Gaynor, Democratic nominee for
Mavor. by Robert H. Elder. Assistant
District Attorney of Kings County
(Brooklyn, who has represented the
state in a fight to enforce the anti
betting lawi on th'e race tracks.
The attack, in the form of a state
ment, was designed to support and
supply details to the charges made
Monday night by William M. Ivlns,
Republican but a Hearst supporter, mai
Gavnor as a Justice of the Supreme
Court had sought to defeat the purpose
of the anti-gambling statute.
Scheme to Nullify law.
Mr. Elder declared he had learned of
the alleged conference of Gaynor. Patrick
McCarren and Eugene Wood, of Brook
lyn at which the constitutionality of
the racetrack law was discussed, and.
ss is charged, a test case contemplated
upon which Justice Gaynor was to render
a decision. The Elder statement says:
"The new law against public gambling
on the racetrack wenj into effect June
11 ICS. At that time racing was going
on at Sheepshead Bay. A few days later
a public official of prominence, who has
been aiding me in my efforts to enforce
the law. told me he had but a few mo
ments before engaged in conversation
with Eugene Wood, and that Wood had
stated to 1i!m that lie (Wood) and Sen
ator Patrick H. McCarren hal been pres
ent at a conference with Judge Gaynor,
in which the constitutionality and the
validity of the new gambling law was
discussed and In which conference they
discussed how the law could be nulli
fied, and that a habeas corpus case was
being arranged to be brought before
Judge Gaynor to get a decision that
would allow the gamblers to do business
on the race tracks. ,
Decision Favors Gambler.
Probably an hour after this, another
public official of high prominence, whom
I met upon the race-course, stated to me
substantially the same thing. I believed
then this conversation did take place; be
cause of the direct and official way in
which the Information came to me I be
lieve yet that it took place."
- Mr. Elder adds that the golf ball case
was not brought in Kings County, but in
Nassau County and before Judge Gaynor.
"In this case." says the statement, "it
was alleged that Sterling made a bet with
another man upon the result of a game
" of golf and that he recorded and reg
istered the net on a card. In deciding
the case Judge Gaynor made a defi
nition or a common gambler. L'ndes this
definition William Engeman. a personal
acquaintance of Judge Gaynor, who had
been previously indicted as a common
gambler, as chief owner of -the Brighton
Beach track, was not a common gambler.
No Offense to Make Bet.
"The learned court also decided that
it was not an offense to make a bet on
a racecourse and that it was no offense
to register and record the' same."
Justice Gaynor was' busy tonight read
ing the Elder statement, but he did not
intimate whether he would make a re
plv. The Ivins charges he branded as
lies.
The Republican candidate. Otto T. Ban
nard. was the only one of the three
Mayoralty nominees to do any active
campaigning todny. He spoke to a
newly organized Republican club at
Columbia Inivcrslty and at several po

State Senator Patrick H. McCarren,
the Democratic leader of Brooklyn, was

complaint that a. fake show was .being
conducted there. We have witnesses
to produce In court. They have been
charging two prices of admission. Ten
cents was the price to the first hall,
where the public saw an illusion. This
part of the show was all right. After
the crowd got Inside- its curiosity was
excited by the 'spellers,' who promised
them a show 'which wouldn't run if

onto It and stopped it. It was a harm
less show, several glrla dressed in
bathing suits appearing in tableaux.

CLUB TO CONSIDER GRANT
Proposed Franchise on East Third

The proposed railway franchise on East

special meeting of the East Side Busi

the club quarters In the Healy building.
Grand avenue and East Morrison. A copy
of the franchise will be submitted at this
meeting and Its provisions will be care
fully examined.
A. Bigelow, president of the club,
said yesterday that this franchise Is of
great importance to the whole of the
East Side. It is now the only street be
tween Union avenue and the Willamette
River which is not occupied with car
tracks, and It is proposed carefully to
examine the franchise to see if the
Interests of the whole district are pro
tected. During the Lane administration
application for a franchise on East Third
street was defeated because the railroad
company would not accept a common
user clause. The street Is- now being
filled up at the expense of the property
owners. ""'" .

Mayor Would Have City and
County Unite.
SAVING IN EXPENSE, GOAL
Simon Declares Two Corps of Offi
cials and Boards Are-Maintained
Where One Would Accom
plish Same Purpose.
Mayor Simon is highly In favor of the
consolidation of the city and county, and
so expressed himself yesterday, while
discussing tax levies. The city having
.1 - .; .1 ,.nnn Rmtll lei-v for 1910. ns
previously published in The Oregonlaa. j
. . . i . ,.:n n wilt I
a saving 01 approximately ov.vw
be gained for the taxpayers next year.
What the other levies will be Is now at
tracting great Interest, and it was whil-
talking of these that the Mayor declared
himself strongly favorable to the merger
scheme.
"It would be a most economical and
valuable thing, if the city and county
were consolidated." said the Mayor. "As
it is. there are too many boards and
too many bodies having the power to levy
taxes. -so that the aggregate levy always
stam-j high. A great saving could be
made if the merger could be effected,
and I hope that it will be brought about
In the near future."
Consolidation of the city and county,
it was pointed out. would at once cot off
a large number of high-salaried clerks
and others, who are now required he
cause of the distinct sets of governments,
the city and county each maintaining
full complements in all departments.
It Is said that there is a sentiment
that the Board of Education should be
merged with the county school offices,
and that the School Board and perhaps
other boards should be administered un
der a general scheme, whereby it would
be unnecessary to have so many offi
cials. As it is. the directors of the
school districts have absolute control of
the schools and have the power to levy
a tax for the maintenance and opera
tion of the. school system.
There appears to be a general senti
ment in favor of consolidation !n var
ious directions, as manifested throughout
the city by the action of various clubs.
The Seventh Ward Improvement League
has passed strong resolutions, asking the
merging of the offices of City Engineer
and Engineer of the Water Board, at a
salarv for the City Engineer commen
surate with the Important duties xof his
position. As it is now, the engineer of
the .Water Board receives twice the pay
of the City Engineer, and yet the City
Engineer has the responsibility of hand
ling the hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of Improvements that are made
annually in Portland. He also passes
upon the plans of the water engineer
for Improvements in that department. .

SEATTLE. Oct. 13.-(Special.) It took
the little City of Odessa. Lincoln County,
Just ten minutes to secure a new- passen

without any formal request to the Great
Northern Railway.
The Odessa passenger station has been
very inadequate, but the business men
and residents refused to make any com
plaint. The question was taken up by
the Chamber of Commereef but that
body decided that they would leave it to
the railroad company, in that they would
know better when conditions would jus

members of the State Railroad Commis

an Inspection of the station, no complaints
were made to them.

"Of course, my younger sister, Allaame,

In the affair. My mother and the two

She Is a quiet, serious-minded girl, and

"Alladine Is different. She's hot-headed
and quick to act. My parents approved
of her choice, but preferred that they
should put off the wedding for a year or
two. ,
"My sister Alladine was IS the day
after her wedding. Her husband Is seven
years her senior. They simply went and
were married, and came home and told
father and mother. No objection was
made, as is evidenced by the fact that my
parents with the two girls and Mr.
Wright leave next week for New York,
where they will remain some weeks
visiting."
"Yes," in answer to a question. my
sister and her husband will live in Los

Mrs. Wright is said by those who know
her to be very attractive and the two
girls are members of several social clubs
and are very popular with a large clrchj
