A hurried call from Union avenue and
East Clay streets was received at po
lice headquarters yesterday afternoon
and Patrolman Pechln was sent to lnves-
tlgats a report that a young girl had
been kidnaped by some Chinese living
near that point.
Pechln found a crowd assembled and
as Informed by a woman living in the
neighborhood that she had seen a girl
about 13 years of age go Into the Chi
nese barracks and had not seen ber
come out again.
The Chinese professed to know noth-
nr about the girl ana recnin maae w

locked and the proprietor said that there
were no keys to the doors. Pechln un
screwed the hinges and went through
the rooms, but found nothing In them. A

be made.
Men Arouse Suspicion but Deny
W riting; Missive Death Penalty
Is Alternative If 91000
Is Not Surrendered.
A "black band" letter demanding the
payment of 31000, on pain of sudden
death, was found In his office by Mar
tin H. Trephonope. a Greek merchant
! of 24S Couch street, when he opened
his place of business yesterday morn
ing. The letter, which was written on
a sheet of tissue paper, had been
slipped through the letter slot in the
door. It said:
Gentleman: We trust thst you people
will obey this letter without any fuse, to
cava a much troubele and to save your life.
We want you people to have suras of one
thousand dollars $1000.00) In your handi to
be ready for delivery at any time after
fnurty-eie-ht ours. We will send direct on
where and when and how to delivery as
soon as you people receive this letter. If
you think that your life is worth $1000 then
as a sign that you are going to pay it over
to us you will hang white shite of paper on
windoa- toward street lde on wlch you will
write 'Just Id time.' If you people are not
going to pay It over the $1000 you nldent
to bother with the hensing shite In window.
Will take care of henglng at prlper time.
Be caretul do not show thla letter to eny
body but you three. Destroy this let'er
after vou get read. Do what you like but
remember, your life or your money.
"BLACK HAND."
Appended to this missive was a
drawing of a dagger und heart. Tre
phenope at once turned the letter over
to Patrolman Martlne. with tbe state
ment that he had seen a man In light
colored trousers hanging; about the
place. While Martlne was talking to
the Greek he noticed two young men,
evidently farmers, who appeared to be
trailing Trephenope. They pretended
to be looking Into a shop window, but
the officer observed that their eyes
were turned In his direction. Martlne
arrested them and Trephenope identi
fied one of them, Charles Shepherd, as
the man whom he bad seen at his
said that he was the son
of a wealthy farmer, William Shepherd,
of near McMinnvllle. He came here
Wednesday to sell a horse and get
some hop pickers and met Jack Klr
wln. who had worked on his father's
farm. K Irwin, who was a sailor before
he became a farmer, was In trouble In
the North End a few days ago and
was dismissed by Judge Bennett with
a warning. He said that he had not
been north of Burnside street since
that time.
Both of the accused are plainly farm
errs and Shepherd bas none of the ap
pearances of a criminal. The police have
a theory that Klrwln inspired the writ
ing of the letter by Shepherd, wbo was
made a catspaw. Both, however, told
a connected story, agreeing In all Its
details, and deny all knowledge of the
letter. The only supporting evidence
against them Is their peculiar conduct
at the time of their arrest and the fact
that words printed br Shepherd bear a
striking resemblanae to those in the
letter. Shepherd telephoned last night
to his father at McMinnvllle. who will
come down to secure his release.
Trephenope. the intended victim of
the letter, runs. a steamship agency and
private bank for his compatriots and
handles large sums of money.
arrests on account of disorder at the
circus grounds were made yesterday.
Arthur Rising, a recent arrival from
St. Paul, where he said he was em
ployed as a train dispatcher, was ar
rested by Patrolmen Frey and Stuart,
charged with disorderly conduct at the
ticket window. The officers were en
deavoring to maintain a line, and Ris
ing persisted in breaking through. He
was unruly up to the moment of being
placed in a cell.
Rising made charges of brutality
against the officers when his case was
tried yesterday. He charged that Pa
trolman Frey was buying tickets for
women and children who could not
reach the window. Judge Bennett fined
Rising $10.
J. Marchlon was drunk and attempt
ed to force bis way to the window. He
resisted Patrolman Boyle. He was
fined $10.
J. E. Bud, an elderly man, was found
by Patrolman Royle, lying back of the
tents, just before the circus opened. Ha
had been seized by an attack of heart
failure. He was sent In an automobile
to his home at Twenty-fourth and
Northrup streets.
A man known as "Joe." said to be
following the circus. Is accused by H.
A. Young, a stranger in the city, of
robbing him of a' watch and $40 at the
grounds. The man is said to have
shown the watch to one of the menag
erle attendants and said he took It from
"a hayseed." The police are searching
for him.
NCREASE GROWS HEAVY
PORTLAND'S BANK CLEARINGS
ADVANCE 30 PER CENT.
Showing Is Best Among; Cities of
Pacific Coast and Third
x Best in Country.
That Portland is growing in finan
clal strength at a more rapid rate than
any city in the Northwest is shown
by the weekly bank clearances issued
by Bradstreet's Agency. Seattle has
been heading the list In the percentage
of Increase for the past few years.
But the Puget Sound metropolis has
been losing ground within' the past few
months, according to the weekly state
ments.
This week Portland took another
step forward by almost equalling the
largest Increase of any city in the
Unite! States. Only two cities showed
a greater increase. One was Minnea
polls with 38.8 per cent; the other, San
Francisco with 30.8. Portland's In
crease was 30 per cent, or only eight
tenths less than San Francisco's show
ing. Seattle was able to show an In
crease of but 12.2 per cent.
The weekly bank clearings for the
week ending August 26 of the princi
pal Pacific Coast cities were as fol
lows: San Francisco, $44,574,000; Los
Angeles, $15,084,000; Seattle, $10,802,-
ooo; Portland. $7,906,000; Spokane, $3,

no difficulty In raising enough money
for the purpose.
The matter will- be brought up at
the meeting of the club next Wednes

worked out. The club" members ana
residents of that district say that the
Executive Board has failed to listen to
their demands for better fire protec
tion and have been put off from time
to time on the grounds that other dis
tricts were in greater need of protection.
It Is pointed out that the district
along the Sandy road, Deyona ttoso

count of the many trees and weads on
the vacant lots the residents believe
that there would be no way In stopping
a large fire under the present system

A New Gold Field in British Columbia
A rich gold quartz vein has been discovered on Grouse Creek, Call-
boo District. B. C. where $50,000,000 (Fifty Million Dollars) has already
been taken out of gravels. ....
The lode is six feet wide, and pans gold so freely that wages can
be made by sluicing decomposed quartz. This Is a tunnel proposition,
no sinking or hoisting, and a motor car can be run from Ashcroft Sta
tion, on the Canadian Pacific Railway, to within a mile of the property.
I haTe acquired the two original locations of one hundred acres on
both sides oi Grouse Creek, and have formed a syndicate to take over
the property. No money is to be paid for property until It Is developed
and ore In sight.

ises to return you S20.00 for every dollar invested.
