The social evil will be vigorously regulated, all disorderly women be ins ordered to leave the city by No vember 1. No houses of disrepute will be tolerated. Ihjs also satisfies tha Municipal Association. Al! forms of s-amhllns; will b stopped. Mayor Plmon and seven members of the Municipal Association, including D. A. Pattullo. its presirlent. held an hour's conference yesterday afternoon which ' was highly pleasant and satisfactory to all concerned. Three subjects" wore dis cussed boxing exhibitions, the social evils and gambling. The Mayor's views were so largely those of the members of the association. It was discovered, that -they had no dif ficulty whatever in securing from him 'all that they wished. As a result of the, jjneetinK. hoxtng bouts will he .illowed. 'the association desipnntina; a referee to stop the affairs if they develop anything but exhibitions of skill. The social evil will he vigorously regulated, and all dis orderlv women banished from Portland by November 1. All gambling must rcease forthwith. i Mayor Simon received the delegation in his office at the City Hall at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Those pres ent were President Patullo. John Bain, M. E. Thompson. Dr. Osmon Royal. H. l"W. Stone, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., 'Sam Connell and W. F. Edwards. I Immediately following the interview. (Mayor Simon conferred with Chief of police Cox. discussing the boxing ex hibitions, the social "evil and gambling. :and ordered the Chief to banish all dis ,order!v women, to close up all house of ;111 reupute in all parts of the city and to keep them closed, and to suppress at once all forms of gambling. Disorderly Women Hare Increased. Chief of Police Cox Is satisfied that the plan to drive the disorderly women from the city is the proper course, as he has tried to regulate the social evil 'otherwise, but without much success. Of late conditions have been growing worse, as disorderly women have been coming to Portland until there are 150 In the South Portland district and about jnn in the old North End quarter. This Information, however, came to the .Mavor during a conference with the Chief and Captain Moore, of the first night relief, yesterday morning. That there Is some gambling throughout the "city the Mavor also ascertained from these two police officials, and the Mayor was surprised. He at once ordered the) iabsolute suppression of gambling in all forms, and Captain Moore will have this to handle. He told the Mayor that ;ambling can be stopped and kept idosed, and the Mayor emphatically said that it must be closed. When the delegation from the Muni cipal Association reached the City Hall, there were really but two subjects for discussion, as the Mayor in the morning, had ordered the suppression of all gamb ling which greatly pleased the members of the Association. They were glad to llearn that the Mayor had already acted in that regard. The first subject taken up at the ln terview was that of boxing exhibitions. !The members of the Association said ithat thev h?d worked hard to close up '-prize-fighting." some six years ago, and that they were very sorry that con ditions pointed to Us reopening. The iMavor then told them that Councilman Watkins. who is interested In the boxing bout to be given next Thursday night, had assured him that there will be nothing whatever In the event to shock anv one; that it Is to be purely for ex hibition purposes, and that no contest wiU be had. there being no decision. In such an event, the Mayor asked, would th-re be any objection?. It was generally- agreed that there would not; In fact it was pointed out. the law does not 'place a ban on s,ueh a bout, but only on fights where there U betting and .-where there Is a decision. Mayor Never Saw Prize Fight. After discussing the subject for quite . while, the Mayor said that he had jnever attended a boxing contest or Iprixe-fight. and never expected to. but that he felt that. a many others like Wing, and a. there is Assurances given him to be no betting lor anything in violation of the law in !the scheduled bout, it might be a ood Idea to let it proceed. He offered . to pick several first-class policemen to luend the affair to stop it if it should become too severe, but to th.s iup the members of the Assoclat.on did not tak- well. They expressed some doubt to the wisdom of picking Pme as Judges of what Is moral and what is otherwise, respecting a boxing exhibi tion The Mayor then said he would go iurther and let the Municipal Ajssocia iinn select any man It rrgy l attend the bout with powtr to 'P 11 S.1 SSTuX 'aTc.nceTnlr "ecre- ef-uir he would help find some one. The s-K-ial evil was then discussed, and the Mayor expressed himself as de siring to regulate this most vigorously. . ,.d he wished it could be entirely ?radlcated but expressed grave doubt Z to thV possibility of so doing. How ' i" ,,,,, that he had decided to close up "l disorderly houses all over ,IT ctv and to give the women r,r,,t until November 1 to leave Port inmates untu.o a(lminu,tratlon will nVvtV anga.nth.UoT any of these estab- rre'mbl.nT.Uuai.on was then dis 1, uY not at very great length, as on the morals of the city to be Identical with those of their own Association. "The Interview was very satisfactory." said President Patullo, of the Municipal Association, but he had nothing further to say. "I had a most pleasant talk with the members of the Municipal Association." said the Mayor. "I am very glad they called on me. for we found that what thev want. I want a clean. healthy, moral town. 1 promise all these condi tions, and I will keep that promise. I have Instructed Chief of Police cox to banish all disorderly women, to close all of their establishments, .and keep them clced; to suppress all gambling and to see to It that the laws are rigidly enforced."

In addition to the cur rency in the pocketbook there was a promissory note for J1000, but the loss of the note will not prevent the collec tion of the money thereon. There were several passes in the book also. Mr. Buckley had planned to make some necessary disbursements last Sun day and was suddenly called up the line. He went out on the evening train and paid for his dinner in the dining car from the pocketbook. This was the last time he saw it. En route there was some trouble with the engine and he went forward several times and then went to bed in the Pullman. He stayed at La Grande for an hour to transact business, and took a later train. It was not until he was on the later traln'that he missett the pocketbook. Not being able to say when or where the purse disappeared. Mr. Buckley has given up hope of ever finding it.

MADRAS FIRST TERMINUS Harrinian Construction Forces Have Made Greater Progress on Line Into Central Oregon Than Was Expected. The completion of the Deschutes railway Into Madras by next June is the present hope of the Harriman con struction forces; and the prediction is made in the offices of the company that trains will be running regularly to that point by the middle of the com ing Summer. The promise Is not definitely made, as unlocked for obstacles are frequent ly encountered In railroad ork, but progress so far has been so satisfac tory that such a time limit for the completion of thatportion of the road is now Indicated." The completion of the remaining 30 miles of the railroad -to Redmond, as now projected, will come later In the year. If these hopes are fulfilled, the orlpr inal time fixed for completion of the railroad through the Deschutes Can von will have been shortened from eight months to one year. As previ ously outlined, the work was to re quire nearly two years. The company has been rushing con struction this Fall, however, and now has a force of 2300 men" in the field. In addition, five steam shovels and 800 teams are working. Preparations are being made to use a steam shovel In the construction of the 800-foot tunnel at Horseshoe Bend. The character of the preliminary -work shows that a shovel may be used to advantage, and one is now being taken down Mack's Canyon to begin work at the south portal. When the shovel is in operation the tunnel will go ahead at the rate of 30 to 40 feet a day. Beyond Madras there is some heavy viaduct work to be done, and this can be accomplished to best advantage, after rail transportation is given to that point. . Near the mouth of the canyon 15 miles of grade have been practically completed. The grade, however." has not all been connected up, owing; to the heavy work in getting over the Moody dam. The entire field is covered with construction crews to and beyond Madras, with the exception of one point of conflict with the Oregon Trunk Line. Troops to Pass Through Gity. -Five troops of the Fourteenth Cavalry. U. S. A., will pass through Portland by special train November 2.- en route to San Francisco, where they will take transport for the Philippines. The troop ers' mounts are not carried.

P. S. Eye $18.00 SIXTH TO LIGHT UP Illumination Scheme Planned v"by Property Owners. . TWENTY BLOCKS IMCLUDED Resolutions Are Also Passed Favor ing Immediate Construction of Broadway Bridge Organi zation Is Perfetced. The property-owners on Sixth street, not to be outdone in the matter of street lightjng by Seventh-street property-owners, formed an organisation last night, the chief purpose of which ia to enter on a plan for the illumination of Sixth street, from Johnson to Jefferson streets, a dis tance of 30 blocks. The meeting was called in the office of Russell & Blyth, in the Commonwealth building, and was attended by about 35 of the largest property-owners on Sixth street. The organization formed under the name of the Sixth Street Improve ment Association and elected Lewis Rufi eell president and Robert H. Strong sec retary. The question of lighting Sixth street was first taken up and ft was the consensus of opinion that the property owners along the street, from Johnson to Jefferson, should emulate the example of Seventh and Washington-street property owners and establish a system of light ing posts, as lias been decided on for the streets already mentioned. Considerable discussion arose as to the kind of posts to be installed, some of the members present holding that it was a matter outside the city's Jurisdiction to. attempt to adopt a uniform post. The general opinion, however, was that - the city had as much right to do this as to require a uniform system of street im provement in front of the respective prop erties. The members of the association as a whole felt that the matter was safe in the hands of the City Engineer. The president was instructed to appoint a committee'on the illumination question, which-would confer with all the property- owners, interest them in the association I and request their presence at the next meeting. The committee will also call on the City Engineer on the matter of the posts and see Just what Is necessary to secure the immediate establishment of a system of street lights. The new association also discussed the Broadway bridge and the feeling was that the immediate construction of th bridge would be beneficial to property on Sixth street. As a result of considerable discussion, all favorable to the construc tion of the bridge, the following resolu tion was drafted and unanimously passed for forwarding to the city officials, in cluding Mayor Simon. City Engineer. Mor ris and the members of the City Coun cil: "Be it resolved. That the Sixth Street Improvement Association Is in favot of the speedy construction of the Broadway bridge and that it urges the city authori ties to take firompt action toward this end." will be the issue of one election, and the selection of a Congressional candi date from the Second Congressional District the other. Bot helectlons will be held November 2 TRAIN SCHOOL ON WHEELS Employes Will Be Instructed In New Railroad Rules. VANCOUVER, Wash., Oct. 22. (Spe cial.)

Watches are very delicate machines that may be put. out of order in a dozen ways after, leaving the factory. A jeweler knows how to put the watch into shape, and he won't sell one without doing it. Mail order houses do not want to bother with that, and, as a matter of fact, they can not if they would. Waltham Watches are the be&t in the world; but whether you buy a Waltham or some other kind, go to a jeweler, tell him what you want, and he will sell you a watch in good running order. Do not make the mis take of trying to buy by mail from any catalogue; you won't know what you are getting if you do. Waltham Watch Company , Waltham, Mass. X. B. When buying a watch always ask your jeweler for a Waltham adjusted to temperature and position.
