(Special.) By a unanimous voir. expressed In tumult and following a series cf fiery speeches by prominent undergraduates, the student body of (irfiton AKrlrultural College thl afternoon mtitkI all athletic relation with the University of Orrrcn anl la re-tc-lutlons couched tn unmistakable terms characterized the recent reports which have emanateil from the University of Oreaon a "false, malicious, vituperative and un sportsmanlike." TI meeting this afternoon, which filled the floor of the gymnasium and overflowed Into the call-Ties, was but the culmination of a feeling of resent men which has been stea'llly growing against the University of Oreson since the football came here on November IS. which was followed by atudent rushes at the depot and later by reports cf the whole affair sent out from Ku gene so exaggerated as to cast the blame for the entire trouble at the doors of the Corva.lis students. Oregon Kmerald Causes Break. India-nation on the part of the under graduates of Oregon Agricultural Col lege was yesterday fanned Into flamo by the arrival In Corvallis of copies of the Oregon Kmerald. the official pub lication of the University of Oregon, containing editorials expressing the spirit over the matter which prevailed at tupene. and lntervlewa with prom inent Oregon undergraduates, express ing their opinion of the Oregon Agri cultural College In contemptuous and far from complimentary terms. Today the opinion of the undergradu ates here that all relations with the Eugene university should be severed, which has fast been approaching unan imity, expressed itself In a demand that a student body meeting be held to consider the matter. With Larry Keene. the executive of the undergraduate or ganlxatlon, presiding, the meeting was haid In the gymnasium and was featured by the speeches of undergraduates prominent In all forms of student activ ity who demanded without exception that all relations with the University of Oregon be severed. Some speakers even went so far as to advocate that Oregon Agricultural College withdraw from the State Oratorical League, ow ing to the presence therein of the uni versity. Hut wiser counsel prevailed, and It was decided that the most un mistakable answer which Oregon Agri cultural College could make to the ac cusations which have been made from Kugene was the complete severance of athletic relations. Resolution- Arc Unanimous. In storm of Indignation expressed against the Kugene undergraduates, the following resolutions were adopted: 'Whereas, the undergraduate body of the University of Oregon has circulated In Its oflfcial publication, the Oregon Emerald, false and malicious reports concerning the eventa In Corvallis. fol lowing the University of Oregon Crgon Agricultural College foot bail game on November 12, and, "Whereas, the undergraduate body of the University of Oregon baa allowed misrepresentations of the most vituper ative character to appear In the dally Journals of the state regarding the said affair and have failed to deny these mis re presentation!: Snd "Whereas, the undergraduates of the lilvrslty of Oregon have violated the agreement of the ractftc Northwest In tercollegiate Conference, expressed on December SO. lsos. regarding the circu lation of evidence reflecting on the ellclMUty of players: and "Whereas, the undergraduates of the University of Oregon have on frequent 00-aslnns circulated aspersions on the veracity, the sportsmanship and the general status of the undergraduates C4 the Oregon Agricultural College: ."Therefore, be It expressly resolved, that we. the student body of the Oregon Agricultural College, do favor the Im mediate severance of all athletic rela tions between this Institution and the University of Oregon and do hereby di rect the graduate manager of athletics to rur.1 a!! contracts now existing be tween tnl Institution and 11. o L'r!r"r. sity of Oregon and to refrain from mak ing any further contracts." May Controversy Recited. The violation of the Pacific North west Intercollegiate Conference agree ment, to which one of the sections of the resolutions has reference, refers to the recent reports published from Eu gene casting doubt as to the eligibility ef Mar. the star tackle of the Orrgon Agricultural team, whereas it Is express ly stated in the conference agreement that no college of the several whose representatives make up the conference shall allow any reports as to the eligi bility ef orposlng players to be published on their authority. May incidentally featured largely In the alleged attack made by Oregon Agricultural College stu dents on a Kugene automobile and it is contended here that the entire affair originated tn a desire of the Eugene sympathisers, who occupied the automo bile, to vent their desire for vengeance on May. , The aspersions cast by the University of Oregon on "the veracity, sportsman ship and general status of the under graduates of t.ie Oregon Agricultural College." to which reerence Is made In the resolutions, rover. In the mind of the Oregon Agricultural College students, a long period of time, and Include the charges made by the University of Ore gon, following the football game of 130S, when allegation was made that Oregon Agricultural College had flooded their athletic field to favor their team, the charges of ruffianism mailt against the Oregon Agricultural College basketball team at Eugene last Winter, and a long list of similar tangible and Intangible grievance. Editorial Rouses Ire. The editorial In the Oregon Emerald, which especially roused the Ire of the Corvallis students, written under the caption. "What Are You Going to Do About It?" Is si follows: "After our Just anger and Indignation have subsided, the lingering remembrance cf Ssturday's outragea will probably be one of diKguet and regret that contact between college student supposedly gen tlemen, should provoVe threatening treat ment more befitting savages or hoodlums than students in the State College.

Oregon Agricultural College has palliated some of the worst offenses, and flatly denied others. They have pre ferred preposterous counter charges. Through the rress they have laid before the voters of the ntate a contradiction of Oregon's case. The Issues are becoming clouded, the testimony Is conflicting.

In the first piare. however, such affairs have oc curred before, notably tn ISOS. on our la visit to Corvallis aa guests of the college, and those In authority suiould have been on guard against a repltltion of Just such things.

CHAMPIONSHIP CONTEST OS Lincoln High and Columbia Uni versity Eleven to Meet. Tomorrow afternoon the baseball grounds at Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streeu will be the scene of what Is likely to be the deciding game Of the Inter scholastic League's football season, for Columbia University and the Lincoln High School teams will fight It out for the Junior supremacy. The Columbia team has not yet been defeated this season, while the Lincoln and Washington high schools have each lost a game, and If Columbia wins the game the championship Is decided In favor of that club. Howeevr. If the Lincoln players are victorious. Columbia will be elmlnated from championship considera tion, for the reason, that the "varsity" team failed to score sgainst Portland Academy, which has been decisively de feated by both high school teams, and the championship would then have to be fought out bet seen the Lincoln and Washington teams. The players on the Lincoln High School eleven are supremely confident that they will be able to lower the colors of the husky young warriors from Columbia, and, as the latter team Is likewise con fident of victory, the clash between the rival elevena ought to be one of the most Interesting contests of the year.

Preston, of California, Is Taken Into Custody at Union Depot. $10,000 BOND SUPPLIED I Preston Caught In Government's j I , Dragnet for Mock Swindlers, Says He Resigned Front Ac cused Company Last July. E. W. Preston, ex-vlce-presldent and field superintendent Of five of the Cal ifornia oil companies involved In the gigantic stock Jobbing swindle exposed tn New Tork City yesterday by the ar rest of officers snd a raid of Burr Bros." brokerage offices, was appre hended tn Portland as he was about to board the Shasta Limited last night. Preston had been shadowed by three postoffice Inspectors, and his where abouts were etnown at every moment during the past several weeks. He was apprehended In Portland because he happened to be passing through here at a time that the great raid had been planned. Preston arrived from Ppokanu, and Intended to continue Immediately to Coalings, Cal.. his headquarters, when he was pointed out In the Union Depot by C. E. Booth, a New York Inspector, and Immediately served with a war rant by United States Marshal Col well. Preston was held by United States Commissioner Marsh under bond of 110.000. which' was furnished with Isadore Lang and Charles Preston a brother, as sureties. Charles Preston Is employed by the firm of I. Lang Sc Co.. of this city. The arrest In Portland Is considered to be only an Incident In the expose of the 150,000.000 stock transaction con ducted by Burs Bros., many of which were based on properties located In the oil fields of California. Inspectors Trail Preston. Mr. Preston was trailed to this city by C. E. Booth and Charles Rlddiford, postoffice Inspectors, of New Tork, and C. B. Weller, of Seattle. Inspector Booth Is the man who has made an In vestigation of the values of the prop erties advertised by the stock Jobbers who assimilated such a large propor tlon of the savings of the people, and to whose efforts the activity of the Government la due. "Preston worked with the Burr Brothers for a long time,' said In spector Booth last night. "He was vice-president of the People's Asso ciated OH Company. the Coallnga Alladln Oil Company, the New Tork Coallnga Oil Company, the Consul Oil Company and the Coallnga Crude Oil Company, all of Coallnga, and the Kern.Weston Oil Company, of Bakers field. In addition, he was the field manager or superintendent of the com panies. "All of the companies were over capitalised, and. It Is charged, misrep resentations were made In their literal ture sent through tne malls, as to ownership of ice properties and pros pectlve values. I am satisfied and the Government expects to prove that they were operated as stock-selling proper ties rather than for purposes of oil production. "In hunting for purchasers of their stocks the various companies were claimed to have producing wells and to be on a paying basis. In fact the Government expects iu prove that none of the properties ever paid the cost of operations, much less the dividends whlcb were guararteed on the stocks, There was never any prospect of pay ing dividends. Preston Says He Resigned. "The way the scheme was worked was this: Burr Bros., Preston and the others organised the companies. Then the company would enter into a con tract with Burr l.ros. to sell the stock, making them the fiscal agents for all the concerns. "It Is Impossible for the Government to ascertain how much of the value less stock was placed on the market until the books which have been seized shall have been experted." When asked for his side of the story. Mr. Preston . denied that he had been connected with Burr Bros, or any of their companies since July of this year. Mr. Preston says he la now operating property of his own in tho Coallnga field. "I was vice-president and field su perintendent of the properties named at the time that the stock was pro moted." said Mr. Preston. "Since re signlag In July I have had nothing to do with them. "I Imagine I was arrested because of my former connections." Mr. Preston Informed officers that nU"h of the stock was sold at 10 cents per share Instead of par, which would reduce the total operations of Burr Bros, to 14.000.000 or $5,000,000, Instead Of S40.000.O00 to S50.000.000. ARRESTS EXPOSE FRAUDS (Continued From First Psge. to the business community to have these frauds stopped as It la to the people whose losses are directly trace able to them. Principals Reached First. "Formerly the procedure In such fraud cases was entirely different. It was the practice to Issue a fraud order against the guilty concern. This meth od proved Ineffective. While It de prived the offending concern of the use of the malls It was a simple matter for Its operators to reorganize under a new name and thus evade the laws. "In the department's present crusade, the practice has been to proceed Imme diately to the arrest of the principals In the fraudulent enterprises, the ob ject being to secure prompt conviction and Imprisonment. "The results already accomplished represent only the beginning. The work of Investigation and prosecution will proceed." Carter R. Keene. Postal Inspector, told the story of Continental Wireless. The company was organized, he said, in Arizona, on October 1, 1909. with a cap ital of 15.000.000. but did not begin op erations on a large acale until May of this year. It obtained control of the Collins Wireless Telephone Company, the Pa cific Wireless Telegraph Company, the Clark Wireless Telegraph-Telephone Company and the Massle Wireless Tel egraph Company.' Whole Count's- Is Tried. The Columbia Finance Corporation was organized to market the stock, and an ambitious selling campaign was carried on all over the country. In spite, of the great amount of business done. Continental Wireless today has no bank account, he said, that th In- spectors hsve been able to find, and Investigation has shown no -trace of where the money realized has gone. The Collins Wireless Company was organized In the District of Columbia with a capital of $1,000,000. The capi tal of the Clark Company was $25,000. 000; that of the Pacific $10,000,000, and that of the Massie $300,000. The purpose of the consolidation, as announced in booklets issued by the Continental Wireless, was to give the company a wide field of 'operation and to give Investors an assured Investment In a "conservatively capitalized corpor ation." "One of the statements," said In spector Keene. "read that by taking over stations already established and adding others at Pittsburg, St. Louis, Omaha. Denver. Salt Lake City and Reno, a transcontinental service would become possible. Connections Far Reaching. The Collins Company, said Inspec tor Keene. had Its headquarters for a number of years in Newark, where A. Frederick Collins, a wireless Inventor, had his laboratory. The Clark Com pany was organized and controlled by Thomas E. Clark, an electrical engl neer of Detroit. The Pacific had its headquarters st Los Angeles. . The Massle Company was organized by Walter W. Massle, an electrical engt neer of Providence. R. I. In a circular sent out from the Con tinental Wireless headquarters in this city, there were given the names of the first set of officers. F. T. Davis, of Philadelphia, was listed as presi dent, Al Vaughan as vice-president and treasurer. Massie as director of the operating department, C. B. Walter as secretary, Clark as general man ager, and Collins as technical director. t-amuel u. Bradford, one of the pro moters of the Pacific Company, was given as manager of the PsTclfic Coast Department. They constituted the board of directors, with these addi tions: Frank Ford, a banker of Detroit; N. A. Hawkins, business manager of a Detroit automobile company: A. C. Jessup, a New York steel man; A. J, Lauer, secretary of a brewing com pany of Auburn, N. Y. ; Fred Shoe maker, of Seattle; General Joseph E. Stepplebeln. of Atlanta; Max Loewen- tnai, or New Tork; Henry W. Lee, a Chicago publisher; Sylvester Sullivan, of New York; George M. Davis, of Wilmington, Del.; Isaac Gans. of Washington, and Judge Edwin R. Cochran, of Wilmington, Del. "It's All Ended," Burr Says. Several officers resigned after the concern got under way. President Davis was retired and was succeeded by Bradford. Directors Lauer, Shoe maker and Cochran resigned, as did Mr. Massle and Mr. Clark. President Burr, of Burr Bros., was not in his office when the raid was made. Inspectors found him later, and when arrested he remarked, quietly: "It's all ended." None of the prisoners could furnish ball, and all spent the night in the Tombs. Assistant District Attornev Dorr said that under the new law in effect on January 1, of this year, tho maximum penalty for a single fraudulent use of the malls Is five years' Imprisonment, and that the offender could be charged with a violation of every letter proved to have been sent by him. After the raid Inspector Reddv was sitting In Burr Bros.' office when the telephone bell rang and David Bulck called up from Flint, Mich., he said, to ask for particulars about the raid and what Its effect was likely to be. When Kedcly declined to give any Informa tion, Mr. Buick, he said, declared he was coming to New York. Branch of fices of the Burr Bros, at Bakersfleld, Cal., Los Angeles, and Seattle were closed by the postal authorities sev eral months ago. DEATH COMES IN BATHTUB George A. Ducey, of Seattle, Dies of Heart Disease. George A. Ducey, a salesman 36 years of age, was found dead In a bathtub In the homo of H. Grady, at 815 Cherry street, late yesterday afternoon. Death resulted from heart disease. Coroner Norden was notified and the body was removed to the morgue. Ducey formerly lived at 2624 Western avenue. Seattle. Two weeks ago he came to Portland, and has been a guest at the Grady home. Yesterday he com plained of feeling ill, and subsequently retired to the bathroom for the purpose of taking a hot bath. Members of the Grady household, believing Ducey was remaining an unusually long time In the bath, begun an Investigation. Receiving no responses to their calls to him, they broke down the door and found their guest dead In the tub. A physician was summoned, but life was extinct when he arrived. Mrs. Ducey, the widow, was notified of her husband's sudden death at her Seat tle address last night. She will arrive In Portland this morning. Beside his widow, the deceased la survived by his aged mother and a sister living In Den ver. Colo., where the latter, Mrs. Laura Sabine, is employed as secretary to the Secretary of State. BENTON GETS NEW GRANGE Mountainvlew Folk Organize With Membership of 52. CORVALLIS. Or- Nov. il. (Special.) A new grange was organized at Mountainvlew, Benton County, by Cyrus Walker, of Albany, state or ganizer of the State Grange. The new membership totals 62 mem bers. This Is perhaps the best show ing made In Benton County upon the organizing of a new grange. Great en thusiasm prevails among the new mem bers. The newly elected and installed officers were: Master. O. W. Mitchell: overseer. V. M. Collins; lecturer. Tottce K. Blaka; chaplain, Luella Davenport; secretary, U. A. Blake; treasurer. George H. LlnuVman; steward. J. G. Mitchell; assistant steward. Clayton Da vit: satekeeper. T. A. Ioirsdon; ceres. Ida l.ocke; flora. Louie Densham; lady assistant steward. Bertha Kins. Mountainvlew is one of the most pro gressive sections of Benton County and no doubt exists as to the success of this grange. The grange expects short ly to build a new grange. hall to cost not less than 12000. While in l&nj the number of German emi grants showed a decrease of 11.813 persons over the previous year, the year 1909 wit nessed a revival of emigration to the ex tent of bom persons more than In 1908.

BIG TURNOUT AT PRACTICE Plowden Stott and Graham Brothers "Will Be Seen in Uniform on Thanksgiving Day Against University Squad. Enthusiasm again marked the daily practice of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club football eleven, which Is scheduled to engage in the annual con test with the crack University of Ore gon team on Thanksgiving day, and de spite the great record made by the col legians this season, the winged "M" players and rooters expect to win. At yesterday's practice Manager La- tourette was greeted by the largest turnout since the season opened, and he felt highly elated at the interest shown by the ptayers. The reversals sustained by the clubmen Is believed to have stim ulated the players to greater efforts and In club circles the rank and file of the followers of the gridiron game expect the husky warriors of the crimson and white to "come back" and put up a game that will, live in football history. Plowden Stott i has consented to play with Multnomah and was out to his first practice yesterday. He will plavone of the end positions In Thursday con test. The Graham brothers, former stars at Hill Military Academy, have joined Multnomah's squad and are frying for places on the eleven. Both are good players and should have no trouble in getting a chance on Thanksgiving day. The University of Oregon team witl hold the last workout before the big game at Eugene today, and tomorrow the varsity squad will come to Portland to rest up over Wednesday and to be ready for the fray Thursday afternoon. . "Sap" Latourette, who was injured In the game with the Oregon Agricultural College re cently. Is the only regular Oregon player out of the lineup, and he will hardly be able to participate in the game here with Multnomah. Latourette has developed into one of the best quarterbacks the state univer sity ever had, and the loss of his serv ices will be felt. However. Coach War ner has trained young Chandler In the position, so the Oregon rooters are quite enthusiastic as though their team were not handicapped In the least.
