Refusal to Sell Supplies to
Firm Outside Combination
Again Recited.
KAVANAUGH TAKES HAND
City Attorney to Make New Test of
Ordinance, With View of Ob
taining Ruling or Higher
Court on legality.
PORTLAND PLUMBING TBl'ST
DEVELOPMENTS.
Charging the existence of an un
lawful combination among members
of the Portland Master Plumbers'
Association ' and local wholesale sup
ply dealers, Gerhard R. Fleischer Is w
suing Individual members of tta as
sociation and supply houses.
Logan. Stevenson & Smith, attor
neys for Fleischer, are deluged with
offers to testify in court as to the
methods of the alleged trust.
Architect responsible for state
ment on representations of "inside"
knowledge, that local organisation is
merely one of tentacles of National
combine.
Through an organized movement,
plumbers' association secured invali
dation of the city plumbing ordi
nance, and since has tried to secure
tha passage of ordinance which
would further strengthen hold on
the situation.
City Attorney Kavanangh expresses
intention of testing old ordinance,
with view to making It again oper
ative. W. X. West, of West A Walker,
plumbers, tells how firm was unable
to purchase supplies.
Charles H. Thompson tells of losing
several hundred dollars because of
. organisation.
The following are defendants in the
suit: The Crane Company, the Gauld
Company (formerly Gauld A Kline
Co.), Hassalo Engineering Company,
M. L. Kline. J. F. Lynds, John F.
Shea, John Doe Walkrow. John Doe
Conley. F..A. Nltchy. Richard Martin
and R. c Bartows.
Characterizing as being either mis
leading or false in every essential
detail the statement given out
Tuesday by Charles Gauld. of the Gauld
Company, wholesale plumbers' supply
house, in defense of the policy of his
company, which reflects the workings, ol
the local combination between supply
houses and members of the Master
Plumbers' Association. W. N. West, of
'the firm of West & Walker, who practi
cally was forced to abandon its installa
tion business, at the hands' of the trust,
replied to the statement yesterday.
The Gauld Company is one of thos
named by Fleischer, who operated here
under the firm name of the Portland
Heating & Plumbing Company, as de
fendant In a suit for $75,000 alleged dam
agee Fleischer declares that he was
forced out of business by the Master
Plumbers' Association, through its com
bination with the supply houses. The
Bupply houses, he said, refused to sell him
supplies and he was forced to abandon
business.
i ne arm of vv est & Walker says it Is
being treated similarly. Owing to the
aet that its funds are limited, no suit
"Mil be instituted at present against mem
bers of the alleged trust.
"I have tried to purchase supplies from
the Gauld Company and they have been
refused to me," said West. "I will gc
again tomorrow to their establishment
and try to secure supplies. I am merely
doing this to show that the statement's
Snade by Mr. Gauld are untrue or mislead
ing. We have been in the plumbing busi
ness more than a year and were per
mitted to conduct our business until re
cently. When they saw that we were
building it up and had secured some good
contracts, they discriminated against us.
!We were told that we could not hav
pupplies, though previously we had been
Betting them.
"I would like to ask Mr. Gauld why
the wholesalers quit selling us as soon as
were refused membership in the Mas
ter Plumbers' Association. He says in his
statement: 'The Gauld Company is abso
lutely independent and is in no combina
tion, agreement or confederacy of any
nature whatever, either with master
plumbers or wholesale dealers." If that is
the case, why is it that when the Master
Plumbers" Association decides to put a
Arm out of business they refuse to sell
him material? Why is it that when I
went Into a wholesale house to get some
Supplies the clerk went to the- telephone
fcnd called up some one and returned,
feaying they could not sell us anything,
that we were not members of the asso
ciation?" Answer Will Be Interesting:.
These questions are also being asked
try Mr. Fleischer, but in a. more material
way. Virtually the same queries are
contained in his petition for actual and
exemplary damages filed in the Circuit
Court last Friday. The defendants have
not yet filed their answer to the suit.
They have until next Tuesday to do so
tinder the court rule. The answer is be-
lng awaited with much interest by per
sons interested in the plumbing business
liere and with almost equal interest by
the public at large.
The publication of the manner in which
West & Walker have been served at the
hands of the trust caused no less than
half a dozen persons yesterday to tele
phone orders for business to them, ac
cording to Mr. West.
"You have our sympathy." one of the
Customers told them. "We have real
ized a long time that there was some
kind of combination existing.' This fi
ehown by the high prices we have tt
pay."
There is now a probability, providing
tangible . evidence can be secured, of
prosecution by the Federal Government,
although the situation has not been called"
directly to the attention of United States
District Attorney John McCourt. Yet
It evidence permissible in court can be
found or If it results from the civil suit,
Mr. Court will be called in.
Kavanaugh Presses Action.
City Attorney Kavanaugh will return
to the city this morning. He will in
struct his Municipal Court assistant, Ray
Sullivan, to begin the prosecution of the
cases against half a dozen plumbers, now
pending, for violation of the city anti
trust ordinance, with a view of taking
the cases to the Circuit Court, where
the ordinance, once declared Invalid, will
be tested again. In the hope that the law
may be upheld there, so that the cases
may be appealed to the State Supreme
Court.
Further evidence that the local organi

AUCTION CAPPERS SENT UP
Judge Bennett Denounces S. Mozu
rosky and His 'Methods.
Fake auction stores in the North End,
where legitimate- auctions of jewelry are
purported to be made, received a scathing
denunciation from Judge Bennett from
the bench yesterday in the Municipal
Court when John Wendt, Will Jett, S.
Weinberg, AV. M. Vale and R. H. An
drews were brought up charged with
vagrancy. Sergeant Riley showed that
the first three were "cappers" and
"boosters" for the store of S. Mozurosky,
alleged fake jewelry dealer with a place
at 242 Burnside street, from where com
plaints reach the police almost daily of
sharp practices or misrepresentations.
The latter two were workers for the sale
store of M. Marks, 30 North Third
street. Judge Bennett said:
"It would satisfy me that any man in
the employ of Mozurosky was guilty of
vagrancy and I will therefore hold these
men to the charge and sentence them
to 30 days each. The time has come when
such robberies and swindles as these fake
auction houses should be forced to close
up and I propose to deal severely with all
men connected with these places, brought
before me upon a legitimate charge."
Vale and Andrews were also given the
same sentence. An attorney representing
the men filed a notice of appeal and will
endeavor to get the Circuit Court to dis
miss the men.

Courtroom Scene of Sensa
tions When Witness
Takes Stand.
HUSBAND WINS IN FIGHT
At Close of Case, When Judge An
nounces Decision, John Byron
Groat Hushes to ex-Wife and
Promises to Be Her Friend.
Sensation after sensation was sprung
in the Groat divorce case yesterday.
Circuit Judge Gatens, before whom the
contested suit was being tried, was com
pelled to adjourn court Just before noon,
when Mrs. Minnie A Groat, the plaintiff,
fainted in the courtroom,, and became
hysterical, moaning and calling for her
child.
The woman's friends said she had
not been sleeping nights since the di
vorce case started; and had eaten but
little.
After she had been quieted some
what, Mrs. Groat called for Judge Ga
tens, and told him -she was afraid she
was about to die and that she feared
for her child.
No Saloon for Her Child, She Says.
"Oh, Judge, I will die in one of these
spells," she said. "I'm dying now. I
want you to take care of my baby.
Give my baby to my mother, Judge.
Don't give it to him. I don't want it
to be raised in a saloon."
The judge -assured Mrs. Groat that
she was out of danger, that she vyould
soon be feeling better. In the mean
time,: George A. Smith, whom John By
ron Groat, the husband, had named as
Mrs. Groat's affinity, stood nearby ready
to render aid.
Mrs. Groat was- Teejing well enough
when the time arrived for convening
court in the afternoon to continue with
the case. As nearly all the testimony,
had been introduced. Judge Gatens
called the parties into his chambers
for private conference, and asked Mr.
Groat and his attorney if they would
not be satisfied to file an amended com
plaint eliminating the statutory charges
against Mrs. Groat, which the testimony
had not substantiated, and charging
only cruel treatment.
This was readily agreed to, and the
judge gave Mr. Groat the divorce de
cree and Mrs. Groat the custody of the
child. Mr. Groat is to be allowed to
see the baby twice a month, however,
when he is in the city.
Mrs. L. Rayburn was on the witness
stand yesterday morning when Mrs.
Groat fainted. She had said that she
secured a divorce from her husband
three years ago, but that she remarried
him for her childen's sake. She said
that during the time she was divorced
Smith often visited her.
"My husband did not court me be
fore we were married the second time,"
she said. "He Just came and asked me
to remarry him, and because - of the
children I consented. I did not know
I was to be married until three days
before the ceremony was performed.
We had one of the Judges Tight here in
the Courthouse marry us."
Smith Reveals Jealousy in Case.
..Smith, in testifying, admitted calling
often upon Mrs. Rayburn. Asked if he
called upon Mrs. Groat also, he an
swered: ."Mrs. Rayburn was so jealous of mo
that she would have pulled my hair
if I had paid any attention to Mrs.
Groat in that house." Both women were
then living at 631 Thurman street.
That it was sometimes' Delbert Ray
mond, Mrs. Groat's brother, and not
Smith, whom neighbors saw calling
upon her, was brought out in the tes
timony. The two men look somewhat
alike. Raymond being tall, square
shouldered and smooth-faced. Smith
testified that at the time he was paying
attentions to Mrs. Rayburn he wore a
mustache, which he has since shaved
off.
Mrs. Rayburn corroborated Smith's
testimony in part by saying she once
sent Mrs. Groat's brother to Mrs. Groat
for personal belongings which she had
left in the house.
After the divorce had been granted
Groat made his way to his ex-wife and
shook her warmly by the hand, telling
her in a choking voice that if she were
ever in need she might call upon him
as a friend. He alsoSshook hands with
her relatives and friends before leav
ing, and to look at the courtroom af
ter adjournment one would have
thought It the breaking-up of a social
gathering.

Woman on Crutches a Month Sues
Streetcar Company.
Harriet F. Jackson was compelled to
go on crutches a month because of the
carelessness of a conductor on the "S"
streetcar line, she says. - So she has

tember 2, 1907, that she boarded the
car at Eighteenth and Thurman streets.
The car stopped on the north side of

AVIKLDKR. OF DIRK SENTENCED
Antonio Cuvato to Serve Six Months
for Attack on Countryman
Antonio Vuvato was sentenced by
Presiding Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday
afternoon to serve six months in the
County Jail for having assaulted Giacinto
Viscioni November 14. Cuvato had pleaded
guilty to Bimple assault.
Several of Cuvato's countrymen were
having an altercation in the rooming
house where he was staying and were
told by the proprietor that the noise
must cease, or he would be compelled to
eject them. They went to the street, and
Cuvato endeavored to quiet Viscioni. The
latter retorted, Cuvato drew a dirk,
chased Viscioni and stabbed him.

OREGONLANDIN DEMAND
PROSPECTIVE SETTLERS WANT
HOMESTEADS IX TOWX.
Ignorance or Western Conditions
Shown by Inquiries Received
by Officials.
Prospective settlers In Oregon are over
flooding the "local Land Office with In
quiries about land in this state, and. ac
cording to- C. B. Merrick, recently made
Register of the Portland office. It Is tax
ing the clerical capacity of the officeH
to answer them..
Through the advertising work of the
Commenyial Club and the railroad com
panies. It Is asserted, there is unusual
Interest throughout the East In Oregon,
but by some means many persons In the
East are of the opinion that the Land
Office can locate them without any trou
ble on desirable claims.
"One man wrote to us," said Mr. Mer
rick yesterday, "asking us If we could
select fo him a nice homestead with a
comfortable house already on It."
To meet this demand for Information,
Mr. Merrick has had circulars printed
at his own expense, as the department
makes no allowance for such. In which
the real situation is set forth. ThOBe
asking for Information are advised to
select some district of the state for a
home, and then to apply to the Land
Office of that district for lists of vacant
lands.
Inquiries about lands for homesteading
Is received In large quantities, it Is also
stated, by the Commercial Club. and. the
ignorance expressed by some of the peo
ple who want to come here to live Is
surprising. One man recently wrote to
inquire whether he could get a homestead
in Portland, and others asked if they

BAD MONEY CIRCULATED
Half Dollar Flattened by Pressure
Sent In as Spurious.
Counterfeit coins collected in the
Portland district in February amount
ed to $22.25, and consisted of one $10
pold piece and a miscellaneous assort
ment of small change In silver. The
collection has been deposited by Secret
Service Agent Connell. It was secured
from various financial and transporta
tion Institutions, which took the money
in the ordinary course of business.
One 50-cent coin sent in as spurious
was found to have been defaced
through some method of applying high
pressure to tne surface of the metal,
causing the milled circle to flatten. The
result was that the coin is much larger
and thinner than ordinary, but the
engraving on either side is in no way
injured. The piece , of money has been
sent to the United States Mint for re
demption, and will be tested to ascer
tain whether the method of applying
pressure has decreased the intrinsic
value of the coin.
