OSBORNE DEAD James Smith, Her Fiance, Revived by Doctors Fumes' First Victim . Vnconsclous Four Hours : ' 'When Both Are Found. Overcome by gas In the bathroom of the Swartz Hotel, at KJty Grand avenue, left lying In the room, the man two hour and the woman three hours, waa the fate of James Smith, a. painter, and Mrs. J. L. Osborne, late yesterday aft ernoon. I'nconsclous. both' were ; taken from the room and an effort waa made to . revive them by artificial respiration. Smith will recover. Mrs. Osborne died at 10 o'clock last night. Mrs. Osborne went into the bathroom about 3 o'clock. She waa evidently overcome by gas fumes soon afterward. About 4 o'clock Smith entered, closing the door after him. The room was dark, the only light being furnished by the gas burner under the hot water tank. The burner was turned on full and waa not protected by a surplus gas con sumer, which caused the gas to escape Into the room. Smith discovered the woman and. kneeling over her to make an examination, he inhaled the gas and was overcome. He fell across the feet of the woman, probably having tried to grope his way to the door. Two hours later the man and woman were found by a guest of the house. They were immediately taken to their rooms and Pr. James Sproat was sum moned. He later called Dr. V. W. Bruce, and together they worked on the pair, finally reviving the man. After fully two hours' hard work on Mrs. Osborne they gave up all hope of bring ing her back to consciousness. Mrs. Osborne, had been at the Swartz Hotel about two weeks, and very little Is known of her. She - formerly con ducted a boarding-house on t'pshur street. Her parents are said to live In Baker City. She came here from that place about three years ago. Little la known of Smith, a painter employed at odd jobs about town. Ho Is said to have come here five years ago from Grand Rapids. Mich. The man and woman were known to have been good friends, and it was said by a guest of the house that they were to marry soon. This report, however, could not be confirmed as "Smith waa not in a condition to talk. They are known to have been in company with each other since moving to the hotel, and almost every night were out to gether. The first thought of the other occu pants of the house was that the pair attempted to commit suicide. This sus picion was dispelled, however, when it was called to their attention that the gaa burner would not have been lighted had suicide been their intent. RAILWAY CAMP IS FORMED Grading for New Branch Through Mllwaukle Is Begun. The Southern Pacific Railway Com pany has a large camp of men and teams on the north side of Mllwaukle and has started grading for the East Side branch of the new line, 'which will pass -through Milwaukie and cross the Willamette River at Oswego. Work on this branch will start at the north side of the Richard Scott farm near WHls burg and pass directly through Mll waukle to the new bridge under con struction. The preliminary camp will be Increased during the week, and work on grading and tracklaylng will be rushed through Milwaukie as rapid ly as possible, that the steel for the new bridge, now stored at the South 'ern Pacitic carshops. may be transport ed direct to the bridge site. " Through Milwaukie the company has secured a 100-foot right of way. Kor its right of way through the Scott farm the railroad company paid $18,000, and bought a great deal of property in Mllwaukle outright, paying top prices. It is expected to hav the Kast Side part of the new branch line completed by January 1. and the new bridge soon tnereafter. , Crabtree Invalid Dies. . ALBANY. Or.. Oct. 24. (Special.) James A.

Chief Cox Says He Will Screw Lid on Portland. GAG GOES ON GAMBLERS Licenses Revoked Where Law Vio lated Red light and Bawdy- -Houses Are Also Doomed. Women Must Leave. v The lid Is on again in Portland and Chief of Police Cox declares that the moral wave will be made felt to such an extent that the undesirables will be forced to leave Portland. The red" light districts will be put under the ban and notice has been sent through the police sergeants that on November 22 all places operating as disorderly houses would be compelled to close their doors. The women will be given 30 days In which to leave the city. The guns will be turned on gambling at once. "There has been sid will be no police shakeup." declared Chief of Police Cox. "I believe the patrolmen, have been do ing their duty as they interpreted It and the only changes I will demand will be a stricter interpretation of duty. Police Are Handicapped. "It Is hard for a police officer to' secure evidence to convict In gambling cases and like offenses under the ban of the Mu nicipal Association. Of course, there have been many Indirect charges that the police have failed to close places no torious for gambling. These have been investigated and In many cases the of ficers have reported to me that they found no gambling. "The reason is that the policemen are all known and we have no fund set aside for the purpose of securing evidence. Po licemen are forbidden to gamble or other wise break the law to secure evidence. I am now going to ask the Council to set aside a small fund to enable us to se cure unknown people to get the necessary evidence to convict. I feel confident that the Councif will create such a fund. "I will also ask the license committee to revoke the licenses of the saloons which persist in keeping open on Sundays or which are notorious as gambling re sorts or places patronized by women. I am sure the license committee will re voke licenses where recommended. " "Proprietors of places where gambling Is said to be on tap will be notified of my intention. I will send for them and tell them here that gambling in any form will not be permitted amd tell them that ifl hear of any more gambling in their places, even if I have not legal evidence, their saloons will be . closed. "Other cities have found restricted dis tricts impractical. So has Portland. So I have ordered the red lights extinguished after November 22 and henceforth any woman caught plying her Immoral trade In Portland will be arrested. Of course we cannot do away .with the social evil entirely but we can reduce it to a min imum. Promiscuous boxing exhibitions will not be tolerated. Where the affair is given under tha auspices of a duly organized club we will permit it Justi so long as the principals adhere to the law. - "We will have policemen at every one of these ex hibitions and if the bout becomes brutal it will be stopped. "Nothing in the way of a shakeup "-is even contemplated In the department. I will demand that the officers do their duty in enforcing the laws. Derelicts will be dismissed."
