MOnJfINO OKEnOXTAX. MONDAY, ATKTL 1911. ELLIS MAY OBTAIN MALCOLM'S PLACE Report Says Representative Is Slated as Next Col lector of Customs. COLWELL ALSO MAY LOSE Humor Has It That J oho B. Coffey Will Bo Appointed V. S. Mr hl C. V. Johnson Likely to Be 3Idc Appraiser. TV. n. Ellis. e-Representatlva In Con-ress from tha Hecond Congres sional District. ! slated for appoint ment by President Tft as successor to IV H. Malcolm. Collector of Custom. This apparently reliable report, at first merely a rumor, has developed until the nomination of the Pendleton man ppeera to have been tentatively decided oa. Questioned on the subject yesterday. lr. Malcolm ld he bad -not heard anything from Waahlne; t0Q " Mr. Ellis, who was In tho city for the day. relsterinif at the Imperial, aid he had heard -nothing authentic. fter inquiring first If the report con cerning him bad emanated from W aan lnston. At tha same time the President Is expected to send to tha Senate for confirmation the name of another Re publican to succeed United States Mar shal Colwell. Who this nominee will be Is an unknown quantity, but tha chances favor John B. Coffey, of this city. Tha third Federal plum available at thla time, that of Appraiser of Cus tom, probably will iro to C. V. Johnson of Corvallis. It Is believed the Preal eVnt will choose Johnson as successor to the late General Summers. F.IIU Cloe to Tart. Tha probable arpolntment of1 Kills omes as a decided surprise. While In Coo cress. Ellis waa a consistent ur aorter and friend of President Taft. Am a candidate for Malcolms place Ellis la believed to have the hearty Support of Representative Hawley In dlltloa to the cordial offlcee of tha President himself. Hawley and Ellis have been Intimate In their official re latlona at Washlnarton- For several days It has been Inti mated etroncly In political circle that President Tsft would not Bend to the fienate the name of either Malcolm or Colwell for further consideration In the way of reappointment to offices they bow hold. In the regular aeaalon the nominations of thee men for re appointment were reported upon unfa vorably by th committees to which they were referred. Rather than have th nominations fall of confirmation by th Senate, the President withdrew th name o bo In appointee. At th last minute, the President sent Col welt's appointment back to the Senate, but Congress adjourned befor any notion could be taken. Malcolm, bav in once bean confirmed, continue to hold office until hi successor la ap pointed and qualifies. Taft May Podge Affront. Tha President's action was taken by Colwell and his friends to Indicate that Taft would make further effort to ob tain confirmation of Colweir appoint ment. More recent developments, how ever, mak It appear that th real pur pose, of that proceeding by tha Presi dent was to irlv Col well a recess ap pointment and permit htm to retain the office until his successor should be confirmed at th next session of Con gress. Th fact ha leaked out that the President feels that he has discharged bis obligation to Colwell and that a further attempt on his part to obtain confirmation by th Senate of Col weir appointment would be an affront to that body In view of Its action of only a few weeks ago. It comes from good authority that th President ha decided not to send th name of Mal colm and Colwell back to tha Senate. Thl leave him free to submit other appointments. Coffey After Place;. In th meantime John R. Coffey ha been aggressive. H has been gather ing indorsement from prominent party leaders and otherwise urging his candidacy for the Marshalshlp In rase Colwell Is eliminated. If Colwell t dropped. It Is understood. Ralph K. Williams. National committeeman In this state, who has stood back of Col well. will 1ve his support and Indorse ment to Coffey's candidacy. Bourne Is supposed to remain loyal to J. Frank Mnnott. his original choice for tho office. With this exception no other candidate has been discussed generally In connection with the appointment. Hawley ha Insisted on Johnson' appointment as Appraiser and the indi cations are that hi wtshea will b compiled with by tha President. Haw ley feel grateful to Johnson, who conducted Hawley" eomnalgn two veers ago, and Is desirous of rewir.1l.ig the Benton County man with the flttOJ Federal Job. National Committeeman Williams is standing with Hi7 n advocacy of Johnson's appointment al though Johnson has been opposed be cause of alleged Irregular Republican ism. It Is reported that Bourns will rot oppose Johnson's appointment. Tnis attitude by Bourne I admltt'i b friend of Jay Bowerman. defeated Republican Gubernatorial candidate. robab!y to be true, since Johneon. in th last election. openly supported 'West for Oovernor against th regular Republican nominee. Bowerman friends, however, have not relaxed in their effort to prevent Johnson ap pointment. They have transferred their fight against him from th member of th delegation to the President him self. rialnt Made to Tft. Letters and telegram hav been nt to Taft proteetlng against John son's appointment on th ground that hi court In th November election wa not such a merit reward at th bands of a Republican administration. Report that Kills and Johnson and probably Coffey will be named by th President for th thre Federal post In this tal now open to appointment Is generally taken to Indicate an align raent between Representatives Hawley and Lafferty with National Committee man Wltllama aa the third member. The object of this supposed compact la to enabl this trio. If possible, to con trol th distribution of patronage In thl state. lafferty' friends, how ever. Insist that he Is pursuing an In dependent course at Washington, hav ing a desir to work In harmony with the other member of the delea-atlon without committing himself definitely to either faction.

Attorney Lord. who represents O'Rourke. has been making a sys tematic Investigation of affairs at the Penitentiary, and promises aome start ling developments In the way of testi mony relative to treatment of prison er at th Institution. Officials of th prison hav been aubpenaed and or dered to bring Into court th records of th prisoners and of th- punish ments which hav been meted out to them. Former tnard Songht. An attempt Is being made to find J. P. McCullough, a former guard, who was recently discharged because he criticised th method employed at the Penitentiary and the administration of affairs there. Every effort will be made to find him. as he Intimated there ar many thing he might telL lt will b shown that th method employed In th punishment of pris oner at th Institution wer of such nature as to make O'Rourke unsound In mind. said Attorney Lord today. -Obviously. I do not wish to divulge all of th iarges that will b made, but the record Itself shows that O'Rourke was sentenced to serve 20 days In hta cell with his hands man acled to tb bar above hi head, so that h suffered excruciating agony. This la th only bad point In th rec ord against him for Infraction of th rule, but It la evidence of the unusual punishment Inflicted. Convicts to Testify.

Munly Declares First Port of Portland Board Shows Bad Faith. MEN'S WAGES WITHHELD Attorney for Neve Members In Suit 11 led by Predecessors Clildcs ' 4. c. AlnsworUi Particular lyCommittee to Act. Bad faith on the part of the old Port Of Portland Commission, and especially on the part of one of it members. J. C. Atnsworth, was charged yesterday by M. G. Munly, who will serve aa at torney In defending the new members of the Commission from being ousted by the old Commission. Mr. Munly said yesterday that he con sidered suit by the old Commission, after it had been agreed that the new board would start proceeding as sn effort to gain favor with the public This, he said, was msde evident by Mr. Atns worth. who criticised the new Commis sion for tho present state of affairs, which, he said, prevents payment of wage to employee of the Commission until action shall be taken to have tha court decide who ar the legal Com missioners. Money With Old Board. The old Commissioners have posses sion of sll tlie money and property of th Port." said Mr. Munly. "and I don't understand how wa ar to blame for tha men not getting their wages, our Board mas appointed by the Governor in accsrd snce with a law passed by the Legisla ture, and wlwn It asked for possession of the property, the old Commission re fused to give It up. Members of the old Board raid they would carry on the routine business of the Port until legality of one et of Commissioners wa estab lished. If psylng of wages to men they hired with money In their possession is not routine bueaness to which they can attend. I don't know what It Is. "How Mr. Alnsworth can expect us to pay th men they hired with money not In our possession Is a puxxla to me. It Is simply a play for public favor, this effort to make It arpear that are de priving working men of their money." Committee Stands Expense. Mr. Munly Is the chairman of tha com mittee of 0 citizens, which took aa active Interest In getting the law changed to provide a new Commission. He ex plained yeeXerday that the commute will provide all tha expenses of th litigation now begun against tha new Commission. District Attorney Cameron, s party to th suit brought by th old Commission on account of his official position, said yesterday that sn effort will be mad to cxpedlta the suit. If the attorneys for th new Port of Portland fils a demurrer to the quo warranto proceedings of th old Com mlralon. a hearing will be granted by th court at an early day. and hearing on the demurrer will settle the ques tion aa far as tha lower court Is con cerned. Th complaint In th case has not been served on the defendants, but this prob ably will be don today. TJntll th com plaint has been served. Mr. Munly said yesterday. It will not be determined by th defense whether a' demurrer or an answer to tho complaint will ba filed. If an answer Is filed the suit must taks Its turn with other civil actions on the docket. DECKLOAD CAST OVER SIDE Steamer Washington, Listed In Riv er, Cargo Is Sacrificed. Loss of the deck load of the steamer Washington waa made necessary for th vessel's safety late Saturday night, as th steamer proceeded down th river, near Mount Coffin, with a cargo of lumber. The Washington was bound from Rainier for San Francisco with lumber for the Richardson Steamship Company, and when the craft had gone about four miles It developed such a heavy list that water poured Into the galley, and It was necessary to cut the lashings and let th deckload go by th board. Tha Washington had taken on 610.000 feet of lumber at Rainier. It moved Into the stream about midnight, and seemed to be lit good condition. In a little while, however, a list wa noticed and the tilt became serious ' rapidly. The vessel was going at a slow rate of speed or the danger would have been greater. It waa not mad clear In Portland yesterdaytiow the cargo shifted In such a way as to cause th list. Repre sentatives of tha Richardson line went down th r'ver In the afternoon to direct th work of balancing tha remainder of the load on the vessel. A repre sentative of the underwriters also hur ried to inspect the vessel and to gather facts concerning Its plight. It Is believed that if the Washington had passed over the bar before devel oping tha list the vessel would hav capslsed. It was announced at th of fice of the Richardson line yesterday that th Washington would probably be 'n shape to depart on Its trip to San Francisco Immediately. KANSAS CITY MAY GO ON RUN Ilarrlman Line Forced to Care for Increasing Boslness. Another vessel may ba added to tha Portland-Ban Francisco run by th Harri man Interests to aid in caring for th Increased passenger traffic In and out of thla port. From San Francisco, th headquarters for tho Kan Francisco at Portland Steamship Company, has com the Information that th steamer Kansas City may be added to the line between this city and California porta at an early date. Th Kansas City has been lying In San Francisco harbor sine ah was taken off th coastwise run laat Fall. At first tt was believed that the In crease In traveling was due In th cut In rates between San Francisco and Ix Angeles, but aa the business be tween San Francisco and Portland has Increased even more rapidly than that south It Is believed now that th pres ent conditions simply cons ti tut th forerunner of a big Summer. The Rose City, due to sail from San Francisco yesterday, waa booked to ca pacity almost a week ahead. . It Is also reported that th ships of th Pacific Coast Company sailing between her and San Francisco ar getting about as much business as ran be handled without adding to the fleet. If the Kansas City Is placed In com mission again on the Portland route. It will mean that four vessels, the Beaver. Rear. Rose City and Kansas City, will b required to handle th traffic fox tha company. A year ago. Just before th Bear and the Beaver were placed on the line and the route extended from San Francisco to Los Armeies, the Kansas City and the Rose City had but little troubla In providing accommoda tions for all the passengers between this city and San Francisco. The addi tion of the new steamer may be taken as an evidence of the rapid growth of th passenger traffic by water into this port in one year. Marino Notes. The steam schooner F. S. Loop ar rived early yesterday from San Fran cisco. The stesm schooner Tamalpais has arrived with a cargo from San Fran cisco. The barge Amy Turner. carrying freight from San Francisco, arrived up the river last night.

With two factions organized among tha subscribers to stock of the defunct American-Italian Bank, the meeting scheduled to take place at Swiss Hall last night was not called to order and no steps were taken towards the reor ganization of the Institution as had been proposed at a previous meeting. Leas than 20 of the 100 subscribers were present and with the small number In appearance It was considered advisable to let the affairs of the Institution take their course. F. E. Melvln. sttorney, was present to submit a proposition to take over the assets of the bank and reorganize the Institution, but he was refused an audi ence. Mr. ilelvln was prepared to an nounce that F. N. Myers, the cashier of the bank now under Indictment for ac cepting deposits without the bank hav ing a license to conduct business, had transferred all the capitalization stock, books and papers to him. With these In his possession he was ready to pro ceed with the reorganization of the bank and to invite all the original sub scribers to the stock to participate In the proposed new Institution on the same basis. "I was present to tell the subscribers my plans and to give them an opportu nity to come In on the same basis that they became Interested In the bank pro moted by Myers," said Mclvin. "but as they were not anxious to accept my proposition. I have decided to go ahead and place the bank on a, sound basis. It Is probable that the capitalization will be Increased from $60,000 to $100,000." A. B. Ferrea. on of the subscribers, said that Inasmuch as there was a dif ference of opinion over the matter, titer seemed to be no likelihood that an agreement could ba reached and an nounced that h would take no further Interest In the affairs of the Institu tion. Others made similar statements. "CANDY KID" IS ARRESTED Negress Thought to Have Been Plan ning Another Theft. Returning to Portland contrary to the orders of th Municipal Court, Leora Worlds, "the Candy Kid." who robbed Antons Frits of $10,000 on the public street, was arrested Saturday night by Detectives Tlchenor and Howell on a charge of vagrancy, and Is held at the City Jail for hearing this morning. With the negress. Tony Logan, a negro was taken into custody. Slipping quietly back Into the city, the woman ws ensconced at Third and Flanders streets, and the officers believe thst It would have been but a short time until she attempted another coup like her sensational theft of a year ago. She U held under ball of $250, while her companion was released on his own rec ognizance. The woman accomplished tha robbery of Fritz by engaging him In conversa tion In a church door at night. After stealing his wallet, containing $10,000. she fled from the city and wad captured sl weeks later in Salt Lake City. Of the stolen money, $S300 was returned and th woman left under suspended sentence of 60 days ARMORY CLASH TO BE INVESTIGATED Courtmartial May Be Result of Lieutenant Blain-Cap-tain Shepherd Trouble. LIVELY AIRING EXPECTED Members of Oregon Naval Reserve Divided in Opinions as to Cul pability of Respective Offi cers in Saturday's Discord. Discord, resulting In a personal clash ta the Armory on Saturday night be tween Lieutenant-Commander Blaln and Master-at-Arms "Wischusen, as the re sult of the feud which has existed for sometime between BkUn and Captain Bhepherd. will' be the subject of an im mediate investigation onthe part of the commanding officer who happens to be Captain SiTepherd of the Oregon Naval Reserves. Since the encounter. In which Wischu sen was acting solely under instruction of Captain Shepherd in ejecting Lieu tenant BluJn. the members of tha re serves have been devoting their time to discuesing the lighting abilities of the lieutenant and the master-at-arms. No event since tha organization donned the uniforms of the State militia has aroused the enlisted men as well as the officers of the company, like this fistic encounter. Next Move Now Due. Since the announcement that Lieutenant Blain would file charges aeatneit Cap tain Shepherd for conduct prejudicial to the service the men have been looking forward to th next move on the checker board. Monday or Tuesday, it is said, Captain Shepherd will hold military hearings for the purpose of making an Investigation as to the actual circum stances of the fight. It la contended that statements were made, end acta performed, which, when put down (n cold writing, will make in teresting reading. All the evidence it is assumed will be gathered in proper form and submitted to Adjutant-General Flnzer, who. In turn, may call for a court-martial. Captain Shepherd Reticent. Captain Shepherd said yesterday it was not proper for him to comment upon the affair as he felt that the time had come when the air should be cleared of the various charges. He said an In vestigation might take place. He said he had no fear of charge being preferred against him. Among the enlisted men It Is generally understood that the action of Saturday was the climax of the Blain-Shepherd embroglio. " "They have been ready to come to blows for sometime." said one of the members of the company. "It only re quired some such Incident as that of Saturday to cause an outbreak. The men are divided aa to who Is right In the ecrap. Some favor Blain others Shep herd. Shepherd, being commanding offi cer, many believe that he should be supported. Courtmartial Thought Certain. "The result is certain to end In a court-martial. Beginning with Monday there will be held in Shepherd's office a hearing at which all of parties witness ing the fight will be given a chance to testify. "This report of the trial, for that is what it really is, will be forwarded to the Adjutant-General of the state and he must take, cognizance of It. Of course he will Institute court-martial proceedings for the purpose of investigat ing the affairs of the Oregon Naval Reserves and we will have one of the grandest airings ever witnessed In the militia circle of the state." NOVICE CAUGHT SPEEDING Deputy Assessor Arrested for Driv ing Auto Too Fast First Time. "First time I ever drove an automo bile, and here I am." said XV. C. North, Deputy County Assessor, at the Folic Station, yesterday, where he deposited bail of $50 to insure his answering to a' charge of exceeding the speed limit. "Guess I'll be a regular scorcher by the time I learn how to run a machine." The defendant was arrested by Patrol men Trout and Wellbrook, who manned a speed trap on the East Side. Tod Tillman, an auto liveryman, placed his car in the eeif.-ice of the police one night last week when a sui cide was committed at the City Park, and his courtesy brought him a return in the form of a release upon recogni zance, when he drove into the trap at a rapid gait. V. J. Quigley, a merchant, also fell a victim to the stopwatches of the of ficers. Alonzo N. Swallow offended for the second time within 10 days and was arrested by Patrolman Sims at East Third and Burnside streets. He was fined $35 for a similar offense on March 22.
