10 FELLED BY GAS
Woman, Then Man, Overcome
in Swartz Hotel Bathroom.
MRS. J. L. 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. ,

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."
