Millers Like Piwpwt.
Lark of steam tonnace may prevent
an order be ins; closed here for a fall
rariro of wheat to Vladivostok. For
several days exporters have had the
business under consideration, but while
the wheat Is available there Is no
tramp steamer of suitable slse to be
had for loading in March.
In former years Portland sold nu
merous carroes of wheat, flour and
various commodities to Vladlvostock
Interests and especially during the
Russian-Japanese war was the trade
thriving, but little activity has ben
apparent In that territory during the
past few seasons and the offer to take
a wheat carsro came from an unex
pected quarter. At the same time flour
millers are not feeling sad because the
outlook tnr a steamer to the Russian
harbor Is discouraging, for they say If
the Oriental demand for flour con
tinues most of the cereal will be
ground.
In that connection they say that ow
ing to the duty on wheat, loss In man
ufacturing It. cost of handling and
other expense. It would be cheaper to
eontrart for a full flour cargo. It was
rumored yesterday that two Norwegian
steamers had been chartered to load
mixed cargoes of flour and wheat here
but none of the firms would acknowl
edge the business.
There Is every reason to believe that
more steamers will be chartered for
the Far Eastern trade. If they can be
secured, as flour orders are pouring In
and space Is not to be had on the reg
ular vessels for early loading. The
oriental liner Rygja. which is due here
January Jl and Is to sail February ..
arrived at Victoria. B. C. Tuesday
night and proceeded to Nanalmo. She
will have a large portion of her space
f!lld here but considerable more flour
could go 'forward If facilities could
be had.
ITCEMATS BODY IS SHIPPED
Other VW-tlnu of Dixon Disaster May
Have Fallen Into Vre-k.
Aboard the gssoilne- tug Kcho. com
manded by Captain Oeorge Shaver, the
bodv of Plias Knowles. a fireman on the
Farah f'txon who was killed through
the explosion of her boiler, was brought
from the scene of the wreck to the
foot of htark street yesterday morning
and was taken In charge by an under
taking firm. The body was prepared
for shipment last night on the steamer
Alliance for Marshtleld. whence It will
be sent on a smaller vessel to Florence.
Or., the home of the victim's parents.
Captain tieorge Shaver said that he
was using a long pole to probe the In
side of the Dixon's hull Tuesday after
noon. In an effort to ascertain If the
bottom was damaged, when he found
Knowles' body, which had been blown
forward from the flrehole and beneath
the deck. The left arm had been blown
off near the shoulder and a large splin
ter of wood was Imbedded In the left
temple, while the right arm showed
several bruises. One shoe was missing
and the overalls were badly torn. Only
the crystal of a watch In the pocket of
the overalls was broken.
It Is thought possible that the bodies
of Captain Stinson and Hate Monlcal
fell Into the wreckage, although the
only trace of the structure above the
hurricane deck was a piece of the roof
of the texas. As the Coroner of Cowllti
County passed on the case of Knowles
no further Investigation was necessary
here.

weeks, after a complete overhauling,

were carried on Its steamers and above
OHIO the steamer Twin Cities carried
1700 and the Inland Kmplre handled
700. Most of those carried between

NEGRO PARSON VANS
Rev. W. W. Matthews Freed
of Woman Lodger's Charge.
DETECTIVES HIDE IN ROOM
Members of Congregation and Wife
of Minister Testify In IHa Be
half Against Mrs. Davis,
Who Alleged Battery.
W. XV. Mathews, pastor of the First
Afr'can Methodist Episcopal Zlon
Church, at Thirteenth and Main streets,
was ln the Municipal Court yesterday
acquitted of a charge of assault and
battery after a trial which had occu
pied the greater part of two days. Al
most the entire negro congregation of
Mr. Matthews attended the trial, and
crowded around him to offer congrat
ulations" when his acquittal was an
nounced. .
The most aggressive prosecutor or
thre. was a member of the ministers
own race. Attorney Lew Dawley. With
him were allied Attorneys Frank D.
Henncssy. deputy District Attorney,
and W. Q. Hale. In behalf of Rev.
Mr. Matthews. Attorney McCants Stew
art, a negro, and C. Evert Baker ap
peared. It was testified that two detectives,
one a man and the other a woman, had
stayed ln the room of Mrs. A. F. Davis,
the complainant, over night at various
times, because she had complained that
attempts were made at night to enter
her room ln the parsonage of the ne
gro clergyman.
Mrs. Davis had complained that Rev.
Mr Matthews shook his fists at her
when he ordered her to leave his prem
ises lsst Saturday.
Place Fooad for Woman.
Mr. Matthews said he had taken Mrs.
Davis into his home Christmas Eve.
with tears In her eyes, when she had
appea'ed to him after the evening
services, saying she wss destitute. He
said he ohtslned employment for the
woman with Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Sharp,
at the Carmellta apartments, allowing
her at the same time to lodge at the
parsonare. Her actions later, however,
, - t. .k..,iAn.hU he anld. and
maue llr ' uuje. m..4-w. .
convinced him that she was of unsound
mind, and he took steps to have her
get a room elsewhere. Mr. and lira
Sharp. Mrs. Davis' employers, appeared
at the residence of Rev. Mr. Matthews
last Saturday and demanded an ex
planation of mistreatment that Mrs.
Iwls told them she had suffered at
the pastor's hands.
Mr. Matthews said that he had
learned that Mrs. Davis had acted
queer'y at two places where she was
employed. His attorneys offered to In
troduce testimony to prove that Mrs.
Pavls. at two places, had complained
of persons attempting to enter her
room. The prosecution admitted this
to be true, without comment, but ob
jected to the defense's references to
these complaints as "hallucinations."
Mr. Matthews alleged that Mr. an
Mrs. Sharp were taking advantage of
Mra Davis' Ignorance to make her
prosecute him for a personal grievance.
"Her Ignorance? Where's her ignor
ance?" asked Prosecutor Hennessy.
"Wherever she Is," replied the cler
gyman. ledger Ordered Away.
"Once when I was going out In the
evening." said the minister, "I .discov
ered Mrs. Davis nailing up her win
dow, and when I asked her what she
was doing that for she told me she was
afraid the lock on the window wasn't
strong enough to protect her from sev
eral young fellows who were trying to
get Into her room at night."
The clergyman said that after such
escapades he told Mrs. Davis she
would have to leave the house. After
agreeing to go, he said, she suddenly
refused, and It was then that Mr. and
Mrs. Sharp, her employers, appeared on
the scene. They demanded to know
why he was mistreating Mrs. Davis, he
said, and revealed to him the hiding
of detectives in Mrs. Davis' room over
night, m
Several members of his congrega
tion testified for Mr. Matthews. At
the resumption of the case yesterday
afternoon Mr. Matthews offered to In
troduce as witnesses as to his char
acter A. M. Wright, assistant cashier of
the United States National Bank; B. Lee
Paget, Rev. J. W. McDougall and Dr.
J. A. Merrlman. He said he had been
a minister IS years and had been ln
Portland Ave years. Mrs. Matthews
said she had been married four years
and had never found cause for suspi
cion. Woman Detective Called.
Mrs. Martha Llnvllle. who proved to
be the woman detective ln the case,
was put on the stand as the state's
last witness. About IS o'clock, she
said. Mrs. Pavls lighted a match to see
what time it was, and a few minutes
later someone was heard at the door,
trying to enter. She said she did not
move, however, ss Mrs. Davis Insisted
that she keep "quiet as a mouse." that
she would be sure to hear the noise.
"Are you subject to any nervous
ness?" asked Attorney Stewart.
"Oh. no that Is, only I have heart
trouble," she answered.
DISCOVERY NOT NEW HERE
Tale Way of Purifying Swimming
Pool Long Tsed by T. M. C. A.
Comment In Eastern magaxlnes on an
Innovation at Yale University, where
it has been found that water ln swim
ming pools may be kept pure by dis
infecting It dally with chloride of lime.
Is causing some amusement at the
Portland Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation. While the Yale experiment Is
hailed as something entirely new In
the care of swimming pools, this meth
od of disinfection has been used for
several years by the Portland Y. M. C
A.. In Its fine big basement pool
After saying that It has never been
proved that Infectious diseases are
ever contracted in swimming pools, an
Eastern publication says:
Nevertheless, those in charge of lanre In
door swimming pools, where hundreds of
swimmers resort dally, have long realised
the necessity of some adequate method of
purifying the water. Experiment, made at
the Carnejle Swimming Pool. Yale Unlver
eltv show that from 0.S to 0.8 parts of
chloride of lime added to every 1.0O0.0O0
parts of water will effectively purify the
water of swimming pools: but the lime must
be ud dallv. or at least once every 48 hours.
The disinfectant Is so diluted that the swim
mers are quite unaware of its presence.
"While this method Is hailed as a
new discovery. It has been followed
regularly ln purifying the water1 ln our
pool." said H. W. Stone, general secre
tary of the Y. M. C. A. "I do not know
that there Is any danger of spreading
diseases ln swimming pools, but we do
not tako any chances. The wster Is
changed several times a week and
chloride of lime Is used daily. 1 think
this should 'be done with every swim
ming pool."

WAIVING OF EXEMPTION Ali
I.OWED FATHERS ILLEGAL.
Justice of Peace Bell Holds That
Loan Sharks Cannot Disregard
Law's $75 Limit.
"Loan shark" tactics were dealt an
other blow yesterday when Justice of
the Peace Bell ruled that the law ex
empting heads of families from gar
nishment of wages or foreclosure on
property to the extent of $75 could not
be waived by heads of families who
borrowed money or contracted Indebt
edness. It has been the practice of money
lenders to Insert a clause in all In
struments of Indebtedness signed by
borrowers of money, whereby borrow
ers who are heads of families waive
the exemption accorded them by law.
Under the magistrate's ruling all such
agreements are Invalid. The decision
will be appealed to the Circuit Court.
The case was that of the Ames Mer
cantile Agency against John F. Jonas
and his wife. Both gave their note
June 19. 1909. for 1128. at 10 per cent
Interest; to George McOowan. with the
waiver Inserted. The note was secured
by a mortgage. The property security
for the note was foreclosed July 1,
1910, and sold for $137.70. At the rate
of Interest of 10 per cent, a balance of
$4.30 was due on the note. This with
$34. representing the expenses of fore
closure, $9 representing the insurance
on the property securing the note, and
$15 attorney's fees, or a total of $$2.30,
was demanded by the agency bringing
suit In behalf of McGowan.
The suit was allowed to go by de
fault, but Jonas appeared ln court yes
terday with an affidavit saying that
his wages had been gamlsheed because
of the Judgment, and asked that the
garnishment be vacated under the
terras of the exemption law.
In giving his decision. Justice of the
Peace Bell said the law was designed
to protect the family as the first unit
ln government, and that the heads of
families have no right to enter Into
agreements contrary to the law. To
permit any such course, he said, would
be against public policy.
TWO NEAR-PARDONS FAIL
Wife-Beater at Rockpile Must Wait
Month Due to Lacking Vote.
James Morris, sentenced to serve
three months on the rockpile for drunk
enness and wife-beating, has had two
"near-pardons," but Is still In Jail.
Two weeks ago Councilman Joy pre
sented to the Council an ordinance, the
terms of which provided for the pardon
of Morris, but It had but 11 votes and
therefore failed by one vote to carry
an emergency clause and will be In
effective for 30 days from the date
Mayor Rushlight signed It.
Thinking to expedite the pardon.
Councilman Wilhelm yesterday morn
ing Introduced another measure with
the same provisions. It met the self
same fate, being passed at first by a
vote of 12 members, thus carrying the
emergency clause that was attached,
but Councilman Menefee, upon reflec
tion, said he had Just been considering
his vote.
"I thought If he was drunk and got
the worst of It ln fighting with his wife,
I would vote for the pardon," said Mr.
Menefee. "but I understand he got the
best of his wife, so I will vote
against It."
Thus the prisoner Is no nearer his
freedom now than he was before the
Council considered his case yesterday

Idaho, who ln all probability will be
tha nominee of the Republican party of
that state for Governor at the election
this Fall, was in Portland Tuesday and
started for home this morning. In his
absence from Boise his candidacy has
been pushed and Haines clubs have
been organized in different parts of
the state by his friends.
Mr. Haines has always been active as
a Republican in Idaho, without political
aspirations, but during the past year
his name has been frequently men
tioned as an available and winning can
didate. "For the past year or more my friends
have urged me to be a candidate for
Governor," he said, "so what I hear
from Idaho now does not come as a
surprise. It Is complimentary of course
and that part of It is appreciated. What
I shall do about becoming a candidate
win rest entirely with what my busi
ness associates and friends say upon my
returning home. Our state has the
primary law, with the election coming
the latter part of July, so there is
ample time for me to make a decision."
