COOLER DAY FORECASTED
August Weather Hasn't Climbed to
Average Breeae Due.
Tha suspicion of Portland residents,
based on the succession of fair, warm
days this week, that Oregon may be
about to experience a return of the "hot
wave" that ahattered all records In

the past three days as particularly
warm, and does not predict that It will
continue for a great while.
The thermometer climbed no higher
than degress yesterday, and until
noon It was safely below the mark.
The temperature ha not been up to the
average for August and there Is lit
tie prospect of this month establishing
records of any una in the Weather
Bureau.
Forecasts for today promise fair
weather with northwesterly winds. A
change In the temperature toward cool
er Is expected.

BRANNOCK SCORES
TMLL'S ACTION
Deserted Spouse Pursues Man
Wrecking Home and Will
Try to Block Divorce. -
PAIR'S RELEASE CENSURED
Ixvegrov Said to Be Preparing- by
Aid of Attorney to -Induce HU
Wife In California to Se
cure Legal Separation.
Declaring that he Intends to begin at
once a quest, which will again result
in the arrest of R. H. Lovegrove and
Mra. W. Brannock. who were released
recently In- the Municipal Court under
peculiar circumstances by Judge Tax
well. W. Brannock. who chargea Love
grove with breaking up his family,
left yesterday for California to take
the first steps In this direction.
Following the receipt of Information
that efforts are being made by an at
torney Interested In Lovegrove'a wel
fare to get Mrs. Lovegrove. who Is In
Gratton. Cal., to secure a divorce. Bran
nock hurried away to block the pro
ceedings. He declares that an effort
Is being made to get Lovegrove di
vorced and thereby make any further
prosecution of Lovegrove Impossible a
far as statutory charges are concerned.
Brannock Is in Earnest.
Before Brannock left he gave out the
Information that he intends to follow
up the case and cause his wife and
Lovegrove to be rearrested. He de
clared he would never stop until he
had them In Jail again.
The dismissal of the pair," said
Brannock. was without doubt the most
flagrant case of the miscarriage of Jus
tice I have ever seen. If the laws ot
Oregon will permit a man to desert his
family and elope with another man a
wife and family, I cannot ee where a
man has any protection. it l naa
known that my two-and-a-half years'
hunt for Lovegrove and my wife was
going to result In the immediate release
of the two on mere legal technicalities.
I certainly would not have let the case
go as far aa the courts. I would have
taken the law In my own hands.
I am prepared to start out on this
case anew, and I will never quit until 1
have won. I followed Lovegrove and
my wife for two and a half years, and
found them once, and I believe I can
locate them again. I have some new
Information to work on now, and I
don't think it will take me two years
this time."
Sons to Be Given Home.
Mr. Brannock says he Is first going
to get a good home for his two sons,
whom he recovered from Mrs. Bran
nock. and then he will beijln his work.
He said he had received Information
that an attorney was trying to get Mrs.
Lovegrove to secure a divorce. He says
he will block this proceeding.
The office of the District Attorney
has taken a hand- in the case and will
do everything possible to find Love
grove. F. D. Hennessy. who was m
Prosecuting Attorney In the case, aays
he can aee nothing right In the queer
disposal of the case and he haa signi
fied his intention or assisting Bran
nock In every way. Next time. It la
asserted. Lovegrove will not be taken
before Judge Tazwell for preliminary
healing, but the case will be heard by
a Justice of the Peace.
That the note which Attorney J. M.
Haddook took from Lovegrove for con
ducting the defense and which wa aid
to be or doubtrul value, may yei oo
good, unles Lovegrove blocks pay
ment, appears from the fact that Love-a-rova
allea-ea he has a considerable
aum of money ,due him from the Ore
gon Washington irusi company,
which haa Portland offices in the
Chamber of Commerce building. .
Company Receives Notice.
Tivea-rove appeared In the offlcea of
the company Thursday morning and
made a request that tne note ne nau
given Haddock be Ignored as far as
the company waa concerned. Love
grove Intimated he had a large amount
of money due from the company
through It officer in Seattle, Wash.,
and he did not wish Haddock to get It.
H was Informed that Inasmuch aa
rothtnn was known of Haddock'a right
to the money, he need have no rear oi
the note being paid. At that Love-
grovt 1 ald to have become very fa
miliar In the oriice. saying ainung
other things that he had deserted a
wife and family In California and wa
living with another woman.
The nresence of Lovegrove In the
city Thursday waa a matter of surprise
tp the officers who are looninsr lur mm.
It being their belief that he had gone
to Vancouver. Waan.
