ONLY THREE WANT RAIS 'Remaining 4 77 of 4 80 Taxpayers Who Object to Assessment Would j Have Reduction In Estimate Amounting to $500,000. With 4S0 complaint on hand from Mult nomah County taxpayers , who are seek . ing changes in their assessments, the County Board of Equalization concluded its labors of receiving complaints yester day afternoon. Investigation of the vari ous complaints has already been under taken. .Next week the board will recon vene for the purpose of hearing such tax payers as wish personally to state the de tails of their grievances. Of the 40 complaining taxpayers, 477 Fought reductions and three asked In creases. If all the reductions were al lowed, the total to be subtracted from the 19"i9 ' tax roll would be approximately The amounts Involved in most cases are small, although several big taxpayers are after substantial cuts. The Harritnan Interests want cuts involving in the neighborhood of $100,000. The ' standard Oil Company Is dissatisfied with its assessment of J16J.6O0, but does not ask any specific cut. The Oregon & CaU. fornla Railway Company wants Its assess ment divided by about two. Some 46 complaints piled, up during the concluding day. All were on small prop ertied. John T. Whalley was on hand to Insist that his lot 4 In block 34, Alblna, Isn't worth a sou more than the adjoining lota. It has been assessed at $300 more. Ion Lewis figures a depreciation of nearly . fiOOO a year for his houses In block 224. and asks that the assessment be reduced from 115.000 to $12,000 because of the fact that the buildings are going on four years old. J. D. Morris expressed himself as un willing to pay on a $1500 automobile for the reason that h. doesn't own such a thing. Strauss. ESsendrath Sk Company. . of Chicago, said the only basis for an as . eament on their personal property In ! Portland lay In th. fact that their travel ling salesman visits Portland twice a year. It was asked that a $100 assessment be cancelled. The Singer Sewing Machine Company applied to have a $10,000 personal property assessment cut In half. TILLAMOOK ROAD TALKED E. II. Vlrgcl Is Enthusiastic Over Highway From Portland. v . R H. Virgel. formerly of Portland, but now of "Woods. Tlllamaok County, is here to look after his property Interests. Mr. Virgel Is still urgjng the construction of a wagonroad between Sheridan and Tilla mook City, and says the prospects for getting the road through next year are encouraging. It will cost only $SO00, he says, and Tillamook County Is ready to appropriate its portion of the $S000, he declares, but Yamhill, which benefits equally with Tillamook, so far has de clined to Join In the construction of this new road. Mr. Virgel urges" the im portance of this road both to Portland and the two counties and points out that even now there is a heavy travel over the road in its present bad condition. "Construction of this short stretch of road," said Mr. , Virgel, "'will ' enabl. automobiles to make the run to Tilla mook in a short time through one of the finest scenic districts in the state, be sides opening up the district for general traffic. .We will get it yet before very long."

' ' Some Approached Have Douhled Last Year's Subscription and Are Loud in Commendation of Great Good to City From Fiesta. Checking up of former contributors to the Rose Festival fund of last June was completed yesterday and members of the ways and means committee inaugurated a preliminary canvass among some of the prominent supporters of Portland's now permanent annual floral event. Only those from whom letters of commendation and praise of the last festival had been received were visited, and these expressed their good will by giving In most cases exactly 100 per cent more than they pledged last year, and a number of them stretched the amount to considerably more. The members of the committee who started the ball a-rolling were impressed with the fact that the business and pro fessional people called upon have become convinced that the annual Rose Festival Is the greatest agency for National and even international publicity that Portland has at fta command. " They made their offerings accordingly. Rose Festival headquarters was. a busy scene yesterday after It had been an nounced that the financial campaign is to be pursued with vigor from this time on. A number of volunteer subscrip tions with glowing letters of appreciation of the good work done last June were re ceived and offers of assistance came from some of toe most enthusiastic. Beginning today. President Hoyt. who has been official representative of the Festival at the Portola Festival at San Francisco, will be at the headquarters In the Swetland building, directing the work of the campaign. He will be assisted by General Manager Hutchln and Secretary Drake. t While preliminary campaigning will be done by the office force among the mer cantile and business establishments which receive the most direct and immediate re turns, the plans and execution of a city wide sweep for money to bear the burden of the 1910 exposition will be taken up by the ' executive committee as soon as i FOUR-FOOT FALL IS FATAL" R. J. Wallace Stumbles Off Flatform and Meets Death. Falling from a platform four feet-high In the terminal yards of the Southern Pacific Railroad at the Jefferson-street depot, supposedly while In an Intoxicated condition, R. J. Wallace, advertising so licitor for the Hotel News, broke his neck and died almost instantly some time during the early morning yesterday.

Deputy Coroner Dunning, who was no tified and took charge of the remains, after an investigation came to the con clusion that Wallace had wandered into the yards and-met with his untimely end entirely as an accident and as a result of his condttioru.

JOMELLI ISJLIKE MELBA votmg Dutch Soprano 'often Com pared to Australian Singer. Jomelli, who will sing at the Bunga low Theater next Thursday evening un der the direction of Lois Steers-Wynn Coman, recently gave a very fine con cert in Seattle, and one of the papers said of her rendition of the "Ave Maria," "something of the passionless fervor that makes Melba's singing of this prayer so memorable characterized Jomelll's inter pretation 'of it. Jomelli has. like -Melba. the temperament tor modern French music, and she sings the beautiful aria from Thais' with the finest feeling and understanding." The Thursday evening concert will also present Miss Marie Nichols, the American violinist, and Magdalen. Worden, the young composer, who is also an accom panist of much fame. Miss Worden's song, "Longing," is on the Jomelli pro gramme and the great soprano sings It delightfully. The ensemble of the con cert is most charming, aVid the opening of the musical season combines a fulfill ment and also a promise of high degree. , English cannel. anthracite hard coal and dry wood can best be had from A.

Canley Arrested Hergj Charged With Fleecing Unsophisticated , Delllngham Man Out of $8 7 5 in Vancouver, B. C. Charged with fleecing Lars Olsen, of Bellingham. Wash., out of $375 last Au gust, J. H. Conley, recently from Van couver, B. C, was arrested in this city yesterday by Deputy United States Mar shal Nicholson and Charles Mulhein, In spector of Police, of Vancouver, and lodged in the County Jail. .The arrest was made under the provisions of the treaty between the United States and Great Britain. The warrant charges Con ley with obtaining money by false pre tenses. According to Olsen's story, he went from Bellingham to Vancouver August 25 last on an excursion while races were being held in the British Columbia city. Shortly after reaching Vancouver, Olsen says he was met by an affable stranger, who, after showing him the sights of the city. Intimated he knew where books were being kept on the races, and pro posed that they visit the place and pick up some easy money. Olsen agreed, : and they proceeded to one of the hotels, where they were Joined by another friend of Olsen's chance acquaintance. The trio then went to one of the rooms In the hotel where Conley was conducting what purported to' be a book on the races. Olsen's two friends placed their money and won easily. It looked good to Olsen, whp produced $375, all he- had with him, which he placed on the next event. Much to his surprise, he won, but when he went to cash In he was Informed the bank had lost heavily -And did not have enough money to pay him. In lieu of the required cash, Conley, as book maker, and Olsen's companions. Urn "cappers," as evidence of good faith, each executed a check for $5000 as a guarantee that his winnings would be made good. The short-change artists at the same time suggested that Olsen ob tain more money and return the follow ing day, when he -would be paid his orig inal "wager and be given an opportunity to place further bets. After returning to Bellingham and dis covering that he could realize nothing on the worthless checks he possessed, Olsen decided he had been buncoed. He prompt ly reported the matter to the Bellingham police, who communicated with the au thorities at Vancouver. Then a trap was laid. Olsen returned to Vancouver, where he was met by the two "cappers, " who were promptly arrested, but a thor ough search failed to locate Conley. The bookmaker had left the city. He was traced to Portland, where he was located, and his arrest resulted only a few hours following the arrival of Police Inspector Mulhein from Vancouver yesterday morn ing. Conley probably will have a preliminary examination before United States Com missioner Cannon in th. Federal Court j today. FINE SAMPLE SUITS.
