STREET IS BOTTLED UP
HANCOCK RESIDENTS PROTEST
AGAINST PAVING DELAYS.
Tlx-jr Charge) City Engineer With
Poor Basinrss Insight In Keeping
Thoroughfare Clot.ed So Long.
Poor business Insight has been ex
hibited In the street Improvement work
in .om. rtm rta of the cltv. declare sev
eral East Side residents and property-
owners. An example where lack ot
business Is shown, say the taxpayers, is
the present situation on Hancock
street, between Twenty - seventh and
Thirty-seventh streets, where a stretch
ten blocks long has been Inclosed and
traffic forbidden.
That part of Hancock street was In
cluded In a paving district, and the
contract to lay the pavement was
awarded to the Oregon Hassam Com
pany over a year ago. The company
waa required to delay operations about
nine months after securing the con
tract until the water mains were In
stalled. As soon as the water pipes
were completed, work wss started In
Improving the street. Progress was
made to the extent of grading the
street and putting In the cement
curbing when City Knglneer Morris
ordered work stopped bersuee no pro
vision has been made for laying a
sewer.
As a reult operations have been
delayed and the street closed to traffic
untii the sewer can be laid and the
paving completed. It Is estimated that
It will be from six months to a year
until the work la finally completed.
The property-owners declsre that the
Job lias been badly handled and place
the blame on the city Engineer. In
discussing the matter, W. J. Hofmann
said:
"I expected to build on my lot on
llini'ork street between Twenty-seventh
and Twenty-eighth streets, this
Fall, but have been compelled to wait
until the street Is completed. It will
probably be another year before we
can go aheail with our building plans.
Some of the residents on the street are
actually bottled up and cannot have
anything delivered to them. The mat
ter has certainly been badly handled,
and. as a result, property-owners have
been put to a great inconvenience."
Other property-owners who have ex
pressed disapproval of the methods of
the work on Hancock street are P. A.
Gllmore. John II. Stevenson. B. M. Lom
bard. C. R. Webber. W. It Lttxenberg
and George !ammle.
VICTIM THROWN IN RIVER
i
Scarbo Arnaud Rescued by Watch
men From leath In Current.
Thrown from Burnslde bridge after
he inn robberl. he allesres, Scarbo
Arnaud. a laborer, was hauled from the
river at tho foot of Iavls street early
yesterday by I O. Criter and James
Mciilnnis. watchmen for the Shaver
Transportation Company. The victim
has a hazy recollection, but thinks ho
waa assailed by a highwayman who at
tempted to roh him and then threw him
over the rail Into the water.
It was 1:20 o'clock when tho watch
men heard cries and saw Arnaud float-
Ins; in the awlft current. They threw a
line and hauled him aboard the dock,
little the worse for his experience
SENTENCE -IS HEAVY
Accused "Slaver". Is Sent to
Rockpile and Fined.
FEDERAL CASE POSSIBLE
Defendant Makes Charge Against
Cigar Stand Proprltor and Grad
ing Contractor Tacoma
Youth Is Involved.
Imposition of a maximum rock-pile
sentence upon one alleged "slaver,"
discovery of another In Jail at West
minster. B. C: a new allegation of
white slave traffic over interstate
lines, and renewed charges sgalnst two
hitherto nspected Portlsnd citlsens
were yesterday's developments In
Municipal Court In the trial of Pete
Lavole. charged with living on the
Illicit earnings of ilyrtle Lovelace and
Ida Bell. Immigration Inspector Bar
bour la In possession of all the facts
brought out, and will present them to
the Federal grand Jury.
Lavole waa committed yesterday to
serve 90 days and to pay a fine of
f 100 on charges growing out of his re
lations with the two women. Testi
mony was adduced to show that he had
caused a Journey of Myrtle Lovelace to
Camas. Wssh., for Immoral purposes.
Herbert Hallowell. a Tacoma youth,
who first brought the Bell girl from
British Columbia to thie city, was
found to be In Jail at Westminster, B.
C, and Inspector Barbour left for that
place last night. lavole, testifying In
his own defense, made charges against
A. R. Toxler. proprietor of a cigar
stand at Seventh and Washington
streets, and against Roy Turner, a
grading contractor.
Both the women testified that Lavole
had taken their money for six months.
The defendant denied the charge, say
ing that all the money he had from
them he had won from them at poker.
He could account for only two weeks'
work In five months, and said he sup
ported himself the remainder of the
time by playing pool and gambling.
Lavole testified that both women
visited Toxler frequently and brought
back money. He also said that they
were using Turner's apartments at
Fifth and Montgomery streets.
If a letter can be found which the
Lovelace woman saye she has. In which
lAvole solicited her to go to Camas, a
Federal charge will be made against
him. Inspector Barbour ts also inves
tigating the record of Toxler. who is
nearly 60. It is alleged that the vicin
ity of his cigar store hss long been a
rendesvous for men and women, and
that until recently rooms overhead
were occupied by undesirables. There
l nothing In evidence at present to
connect Toxler with these activities.
The strongest case yet developed
from the testimony Is that against
Hallowell, who Is under arrest at
Westminster. The Government expects
to prove. If he Is brought here for
trial, that he caused the downfall or
Ida Bell when she was It years old.
brought her here, an alien, and profit
ed by her Immorality In this city for
several months before he deserted her.
He Is said to be the son of a well-to-do
real estate man of Tacoma.
New Trial Denied "White Slavers."
Judge Wolverton. In the Federal Court,
yesterday overruled the motion of George
K.ivslln and James Takos. convicted of
trafficking in "white slaves." and that
of David Westmsn. convicted of plnclng
his wife and her cousin In a house of Ill
fame, for a new trial. Vnless sppeals are
taken the "white slavers' must serve out
the sentences Imposed by the court.

HOVENDEN PIANO CO.
106 Fifth St., Next to Perkins HoteL
I wish to call . the attention of
readers of the Oregonian to the state
ment I made some three weeks ago
that certain piano, dealers, their
agents, cappers, commission-fiends and
hangers-on, in this city, -were con-
stantly watching our piano store
day and night and were in the habit
of buttonholing our customers as they
leave the store, or following them
home and locating them, then inno
cently happen around next morning
to run down our pianos.
I said then that if this thing didn't
cease, and my competitors attend to
their own business if they had any
to attend to and let me attend to
mine, that I would have our factory
corporation the "Cote" fiano .Man
ufacturing Co. ship pianos here and
sell them at the factory wholesale
cost, and keep on doing so till there
wouldn't be a customer left in Port
land for these meddlesome dealers to
sell a piano to at any price, much less
at double the price we are getting
here for the "Cote" piano, which is
as fine -as any factory turns out to
day, no matter what name it bears.
This warning of mine to these med
dlesome dealers has not proved an
idle boast.
I wrote the Cote Co. and advised
them what was going on here, and
what tactics were being used by cer
tain .dealers to disparage our custom
ers and try to upset sales after they
were made, and suggested to the com
pany that these meddlesome parties
could be made very sick by our sell
ing a few more carloads of "Cote"
pianos' here at the factory wholesale
price, and if they cared to ship, count
on me to do the selling.
The result of that' information to
the Cote Piano Manufacturing Co.
brought a night message that they
had shipped me that day a carload of
sixteen of the most beautiful and fin
est of our elaborate exhibition style
(art styles, built for display), and
that I should sell them at the factory
wholesale figure, same as the others;
that our manufacturers' small whole
sale margin would about cover the
freight to Portland, and while we
would make nothing, we ( would lose
nothing but our time, and get a lot of
satisfaction' out of it, and a whole lot
of good advertising for the Cote piano
besides.
N6w here comes the good news foi
those who would like to buy and own
one of the most massive, beautiful and
finest high-grade pianos (away up in
"G") that ever came to Portland, for
less money than you would have to
pay retail dealers for an ordinary
looking low-grade piano. Come to our
warerooms at the corner of Park and
Morrison and see this carload of fine,
artistic beauties.
This carload the cream of our Fall
River factory arrived and were un
boxed yesterday, and will be on ex
hibition today and sold at the price
we wholesale to dealers at the factory
no freight added.
Our $600 exhibition style is here
and for sale at 295. And six of our
$575 art styles came in that same car;
they wholesale for $285 at factory,
and $285 will take them, one at a time,
right here, and oa terms of $25 down
and ten a month 5 per cent less for
cash.
These pianos are the handsomest,
and equally as fine, if not the finest
that stands in any piano salesroom in
Portland today.
In other words, I will sell anybody
today for $295 as fine a $600 piano as
I believe has ever been shipped to
Portland.
Our $500 style and it's a massive
beauty, also, for $235; and I am sell
ing here at this sale what I honestly
believe to be the best $400 piano
turned out by any factory for $19.5,
on time, or $185 cash. And our $300
style very fine medium size but
plain for $160, on time, or $152 cash.
We are manufacturers, cutting tha
life out of prices here; who can com
pete with us? Nobody.
A strongly worded ten years' writ
ten guarantee accompanies each piano
sold here, signed by the Cote Piano
Mfg. Co., who are rated in Brad
street's and Dunn's at a quarter of a
million, and whose guarantee would
be as good as if signed by your bank
here.
Store open day and evening; bril
liantly lighted for inspection at night.
Don't delay, for these ' sixteen beau
ties are liable to go in a day. They
certainly will, if sixteen people with
any idea of buying a piano .come to
see them. Cote Piano Mfg. Co., A. A.
