Ttesidents of Milwaukle went on rec ord at a mass meeting last night as opposed to the purchaee of additional school grounds and erection of another building thla year, and It was the senti ment of the meeting that the present srhoolhouse is sufficient for the needs of the present year. It was suggested that the assembly hall be used for class rooms If more room is needed. The meeting decided that the matter of erecting one central, or one or more primary building should be settled later. The sentiment of the meeting was against the site the directors have se lected. , Representatives from Mint horn an nounced that unless the Milwaukle dis trict provides them with a schoolbouse I hey will Join the Wlllsburg district, which has purchased ground for a new Kchoolhouse, and withdraw from Mil. waukle. The final disposition of the questions was left for next Monday night at the annual meeting of taxpayara. Resolutions were passed favoring holding a special election August 24 to bond Milwaukle in the sum of $40,000 with which to erect a municipal water plant.

STOCKMEN END SESSIONS National Exchange Elects Officer and LlMens to Addresses O. M. i riommrr, of Portland, la ' rhosen Vice-President. "If Ktandard Oil. the Packera' trust, the Mteel trust and a few ofTtera In the same boat had taken the people Into their confidence years ago there would not now be the universal distrust of large corporations," said D. O. Lively yesterday at the meeting of the Na tional Block Exchange, discussing "Publicity" as regards the livestock commission man. "By keeping their movements secret the big corporations, gradually gave out the Idea that something shady waa transacted behind their doors, and In thla way brought upon themselves a deluge of popular disapproval. The livestock commission man dlffera from every other commission man in that he sometimes even advances the money for the buyer and gets closer to his customers than the Bgent who merely relies upon a commission alone for his profit. If the livestock agents make public their business and tell why they transact certain business In a peculiar fashion, they will never run up against the wall that Is holding back other big corporations." The meeting yesterday concluded the sessions of the exchange. The follow. Ing officers were elected: A. F. Daly, of St. Joseph, Mo., president: W. A. Moody, of East St. Louis, III., treasurer; K. p. Woodbury, secretary; O. M. Plum mer, of, Portland, vice-president In an address nn the "Conservation of Livestock." H. H. Fletcher urged leg Islatlon preventing the killing of any heifer less than 1 years old unless aha Is Incapable of reproduction. T. O. McCrnsky, in an address, told of the necessity for the livestock commission man, and papers on "The Railroads and the Commission Man," "The Kallroads and the Livestock Shipper" and "Mov. Ing Livestock Westward" were read. St. Joseph, Mo., waa chosen as the meeting place next year. WONG SI SAM DRAWS LIFE Chinese) to Itcmaln In State Peni tentiary Ponding Appeal.

In the Council Chamber yesterday, there, arose, a proeooloua Imp, solemn of features sava for a sparkling eye, but by no means diffident in action. "Mr. Mayor, I wlsU to say mat me hon'ble speaker should "speclfllfy" more 'xackly," but be got no further for the roars of laughter and applause forced him to his seat. It is not fair to give away tho name of this illustrious Councilman, for apart from that little allp, and one other, where he meant to say "con denser" and ueed Instead "extensive," ble speeches were alwaya very much to the point. Bufflce it to say, that at the meeting of the Boy Mayor and his Council many measures of vital Importance were passed with a celerity and an abandon that waa awe-inspiring. City Park Zoo la Sold. For Instances Portland people will be astonished to learn that from now on there will be no more animals at the City Park. A measure was passed that tho menagerie be eold to the highest bidder, the proceeds to go to the News boy's Homo. Councilman Caster thought that In all fairness some of the money should t to the City Treasury, but be was quickly .voted down. - Mayor Max showed what an observ ant eye he had, when ho related that on one of the multitudinous tripe up to Council Croat, he had noticed dirt piled on Vista avenue. "This should be cleared, on account of danger to cars, and I would sugg-est that a motion calling it would be batter for the defendant to be at the Rtata Penitentiary pending the determination of an appeal to the Supreme Court. Lew Boon, who Is accused by Ol Sen. the Chinese woman in whose room the murder occurred, of having assisted ia the killing, will probably be brought to trial during the September term of court.

Its plans are such as to accommodate those who wish to Invest a sum of ready cash, or those who desire to save money and have It profitably lnveated for them by making periodical payments. The company Is developing and Im proving Its property without risk of deterioration. The speculative features of the real estate business are avoided. The eompany'coneentratee ita attention principally on selling- homes and then building them according to specifica tions and price agreed upon. ' The company will buy and pay cash for any lot Its customer may select, after a contract la entered Into. It will not. however, purchase any lot until the party aeeklng a home has first con. traded to purchase it and paid at least 10 per crnt of the total price of the lot, and the home to be built.

"This Is a false and malicious propo sition, a damnable outrage and ex emplifies and illustrates the dirty deal that I have been getting from the po lice department all the time," shouted John B. Coffey, chairman of the police oommlttee, during a meeting yesterday. He waa addressing Chief ."lover. His remarks were about a written report. algned by Policeman Sorenson, desk man at headquarteta on the first relief. It said a man called the station Wednesday night, abused the office staff, used vile and profane language and said "thla Is Coffey." Not only did I not abuse the of fice foroe," continued Mr. Coffey, "but I did not even call the atatlon. What makes this thing worse and more eut rageoua Is the fact that I waa home with my children that night because mv wife is with her sister, comforting and helping her on account of the death of her little boy. He was run over by a hose cart and killed and la the second of her sons to meet instant death within two years. "Rettea (yatesa Deeonaoed. "Chief. I brand this report as one of the most scandalous, most outrageous things I ever saw In my life." Mr. Cof fey said, pounding hla clenched flat hard on the table where he waa pre siding, "and I denounce the whole rot ten police system thaf countenances any such a malicious report aa thla I never abused the police In my life. I suppose, though, that any dirty pimp, macquereau, thief or 'Jobber in this city can call in and say 'this Is Coffey" and get a acandaloua report In writing. have it sent up here and published boadcast through the press. I think Captain Riley should have asked ma about thla before causing the report to be made public." The sensational remarks of the chair man created a profound Impression. Chief Slover evidently realized that a bad mistake had been made. He said, "Yes, probably the captain should have asked you about It," and showed that ha waa hurt deeply over the Incident. No one else spoke a word about It, feeling It to be a personal matter, from the heated words spoken By Mr. uorrey. The filing of the report was unusual. and It la said that alleged Ill-reeling between the Chief and and Mr. Coffey had something to do with It That the Chief wished to clear up the report, but made a mistake in placing it be fore the committee, le believed prob able. No action was taken on lt Patho and Ifasaor Mixed. Yesterday's committee session was one of the most peculiar aver held. It was filled with pathos. Indignation and humor and lasted a long time. . Members of the City Council applied fo'r commissions as special policemen during the Elks' reunion and are rec ommended for appointment. Like any other applicant, each one must file a bond for $1000, which will cost each 14. The bond le good for a year. Moy Back Hln, Chinese consul at Portland, petitioned for a special star for Frank Russell, an employe, saying: "Conditions are such that I need a spe. clal auard. being consul of the nev republic." It was referred to Chief Slover for Investigation, Mrs. Lola (). Baldwin, superintendent or the public ssfety department for women, petitioned the committee to take some action to stop the renewed life of so-called msasage parlors. Like the members of the Vice Commission which recently filed an objection to these places, she characterised them as grossly Immoral In many eases. No action was taken, as Commissioner eeton said he would not vote on I subject he knows so little about. Mrs. Baldwin also reported the serl eus Illness of Miss Pearl Chandler, her assistant, from overwork. Miss Chsndler Is on sick leave. Kay Tlree of Mere! sened.
