BONDS
HANDLING
Seattle Broker Secured Issue
Not to Exceed Four Cents
on Dollar.
BIEHL MADE DELIVERIES
Testimony in Columbia IUver Or
chards Company Action Reveals
Deals Through Brokers,
' Netting Xice Incomes.
Additional testimony was presented
by the Government in United States
Judge Bean's court yesterday disclos
ing that at the same time DeLarm and
Blehl, through brokers, were selling
Columbia Itiver Orchards Company
bonds at 2 cents on the dollar, they
were exchanging the same bonds for
city property, farm and timber lands
on a basis of dollar for dollar in most
cases. Whenever property was ac
quired in a trade it apparently was the
unfailing practice of the promoters im
mediately to negotiate a mortgage
thereon for all the land would stand.
A. C. Gunn, a Seattle broker, yester
day told of having handled about $300.
000 worth of the orchard bonds. For
the initial $1000 bond he paid $325, but
the others did not cost him to exceed
4 cents on the dollar.
DeLarm, said the witness, was par
ticularly cautious always to represent
that the bonds he was placing on the
market were not his own. but the prop
erty of clients. Several times, said
Mr. Gunn. Blehl personally delivered
quantities of the bonds at his office,
the witness at one time paying Blehl
?600 for a block of $10,000.
Both Mea Questioned.
"I frequently questioned both De
Larm and. Blehl as to the amount of
their bond issue,"" said Mr. Gunn, "and
was told that it did not exceed tnoro
than J300.000 or $400,000. 1 received
this information one morning after
having passed an- office window in
wnich a broker had placed a bulletin
board and an Immense quantity of the
orchard bonds. The bulletin board
announced that the bonds were for sale.
On this occasion I told DeLarm, who
had again assured me that the entire
Issue did not exceed $400,000. that he
had better go up the street, where he
could purchase probably $700,000 of the
very same bonds. With them bonds
seemed to be a matter of commodity
rather than a security."
On' another occasion when .the wit
ness was conversing with DeLarm re
garding the movement of the orchard
bonds, DeLarm was quoted as having
said:
"I do most of the scheming in this
enterprise, while Blehl does the physi
cal work."
Aside from pronouncing as a forgery
a sales contract for $112,000 listed as
an asset of the orchard company. Will
iam T. DeGraff. mortgage broker, of
Seattle, told of trading property to
DeLarm for orchard bonds, which he
in turn exchanged for other property.
F. X. Waldron, another Seattle broker,
testified that he had received from De
Larm orchard bonds to the amount of
$lt0,r.OO. with authority to dispose of
the same at 2!i cents on the dollar. He
failed to effect a sale of the bonds at
that figure.
Similar Evidence Given.
Similar testimony was given by a
number of other witnesses as to the
price for which the bonds were bar
tered among brokers. Others testified
to having received through the malls
printed circulars elaborately setting
forth the value of the bonds, as well
as the securities behind them.
Miss Pearl Day, stenographer for the
Oregon & Washington Trust Company,
identified several letters written by
Biehl and Hodges in connection with
the affairs of the trust company and
the sale of the orchard bonds through
the Portland office. She testified that
the trust company ild not have a
bank account and that the board of
directors held no meetings. The wit
ness explained that one of her chief
duties was to scan the classified col
umns of the daily papers for adver
' tisements of property to exchange.
Upon finding such an advertisement,
under instructions from Blehl. she
wrote the advertiser inviting him to call
at the trust company's office. In this
way a great many victims were ob
tained. District Attorney McCourt Intro
duced a number of letters that passed
between Biehl and DeLarm showing
that Biehl. the defendant, was actively
associated with the orchard company
and the disposition of the bonds until
as late as December. 1911. In one of
these letters Biehl complained to De
Larm of being "hard up" and earnestly
appealed to his associate for either
funds or another batch of bonds by re
turn mail. The job of running the
trust company apparently was not to
Biehl's liking, for in another letter to
DeLarm lie confessed "this trust com
pany business is about the hottest lid
it was ever my misfortune to sit on."
Lane Timber Land Secured.
Details of how DeLarm and his as
sociates acquired 2400 acres of Lane
County timber land were recited yes
terday. After mortgaging this prop
erty for $25,000, tho promoters organ
ized the Imperial Timber Company and
started a deal by which they expected
to exchange more bonds for an addi
tional 7000 acres of timber land owned
by Lluu County people. This scheme
failed, however, when counsel for the
owners of the land advised them
against making the exchange, after
lwvins: investigated the orchard bonds.
W. A. Leer, a Portland lawyer, who
assisted to consummate the Lane Coun
ty timber deal, admitted that he re
ceived in bonds a commisssion amount
in;? to $10 an acre. It was one of
Leet's letters strongly indorsing the
orchard bonds and the securities back
of them thft DeLarm and Birhl had
printed as a circular snd distributed
generally in their bond-selling cam
paign. Just before court adjourned yester
day District Attorney McCourt an
nounced lhat the prosecution would
conclude its case today, although it
might re necessary to hold a night
session.

Installation f water meters as fast
as they can be placed, in accordance
with the vote of the people of port
land several years ago, was practical
ly the unanimous sentiment of the dele
gates of improvement clubs who at
tended the union meeting Monday
night at the rooms of the last &iae
Business Men's Club. A dozen or more
made talks on the meter question," al
thrmch the meeting had not been
called for that purpose, and, with the
exception of John W. haste, ot Mount
Tabor, favored the meter system.
"It will be a heavy tax to install tne
water meters," said Mr. Kaste. "I re
cently bought three meters ana paia
$15 each for tnem. to meter tne en
tire city will be a great expense and
absorb much of the proceeds oi tne
sale of water if It Is paid by tne cit.

taxed especially because l oo tins,
when my neighbor may neglect his
grounds? 1 am opposad to the use of
water meters. I believe that . water
should be furnished at the lowest cost
possible, and that the improvement of
lawns should be encouraged."
"If the city had Installed meters, in
accordance with the vote of the peo

line which was recently laid to the
headworks would not have been re
quired. There was plenty of water, but
people are wasteful, and, with water
meters, this wastage would be stopped.
The water-meter plan is the only fair
system.
The delegates present agreed to take

Talk about realism on the stage!
There was a bit of it at the Bunga

players are presenting "In the Bishop's
Carriage" this week. It was not the
result of carefully wrought out plans
of author, stage director or actor, and
came near wrecking the good disposi

was busy running around to the differ

connection with the affairs that were
scheduled to come off "immediately

Property Mam, Keys, Mlsslns.
Anyway Wayne is playing the role
of Tom Dorgan, who Is a typical burg
lar of popular tradition and who spends
the greater part of the time during the
four exciting acts of the well-known
play breaking into other people's
houses. At the finish of the play he is
caught, a pair of ugly looking hand
cuffs snapped on his wrists and taken
off to jail or rather to his dress
ing room, where it. is the duty
of the above mentioned Tony to
unsnap handcuffs, give him a bless
ing ana let him go on his way.
The plot is now apparent. Tony was
out Tuesday night and reposing in his
pocket were the keys to the handcuffs.
"Curses! 1 :.ave a table reserved at
the grill and a party of friends await
ing to join me there. Unlock these
shackles! Where's Tony?" demanded
Wayne.
No, Tony was not to be found.
Neither was anyone who could unlock
handcuffs, without the aid of keys. The
policeman on the beat was hunted up,
tried a long time, but gave, it up, and
sauntered out. trying to conceal an un
holy grin. Another was sought. Noth

Meanwhile the minutes were fast
ebbing away, in fact over half an hour
had already sped- by and Wayne's, feel
ings, with his burglar makeup, tools
and dark lantern still in the kit, sitting
there listening to the slams of a dozen
stage hands and the ill-concealed
amusement of the members of the com
pany, may well be imagined. There
were plenty of cops abroad and after
six had volunteered to try his keys on
the cuffs, one was found who unlocked
them but it was five minutes after
12 the old year had sped the table
at the grill was empty and a party of
anxious friends who had responded to
his invitation to join his merry party
had given up waiting for him and went
to the theater.
By this time Wayne was in such a
state of mind that the policeman who

"CLEOPATRA" TO BE SEEN
Story Told or Big Film Production
by Helen Gardner.
Helen Gardner walked into Wall

ago and said to two financial men, "I
made a hit for Vitagraph as Becky
Sharp in 'Vanity Fair." I want to put
on Sardou's 'Cleopatra.' and you boys
must supply the coin."
"But it will cost a barrel of money,"
said the would-be angels,, "and we don't
know a solitary thing about the film
game." '
Miss Gardner .argued as if her life de
pended on success, and when she in
formed C. L. Fuller, her manager and
a big film man of the East, that she
had the promise of $100,000 with which
to start the Helen Gardner Film Play
ers Company, Fuller laughed and re
marked something about the ripe
peaches that fell off the "sucker" tree
every day.
But the dream came true. The com
pany was organized and Helen Gardner
threw herself into the work. First she
bought the film production rights of
Sardou's great tragedy. Then she per
sonally selected and hired a capable
cast, arranged for costumers, scene art
ists, camera men and plunged into the
work, dominating every phase ' of the
project with a personality that is easily
reflected in every part of the finished
product.
The Wall street men raved and swore
as they saw their small fortune dis
appear into the rapacious maw of ex
pense, and when after the original cap

and naively asked for more they near

REAIS SEES BENEFIT
JOINT REPRESENTATIVE KE
TCIiXS FROM 1915 FAIR SITE.
f
Douglas and Jackson. County Stan
Not in Favor of Appropriation
Greater Than $200,000.
C. L. Reames. Joint Representative
from Douglas and Jackson counties,
having just returned from a week's
stay in -Kan Francisco, In a communica
tion says:
"I was greatly impressed with the
business-like manner in which the
managers of the exposition are getting
ready for the 1915 fair. I believe that
Oregon will receive a much larger
benefit through advertising at the ex
position than will any of the states in
either the Middle West or the West.
"At a meeting of the Jackson County
delegation it was decided to favor an
appropriation not exceeding $200,000.
I do not think in fixing the appropria
tion that we should pay much, if any,
attention to the amount of the appro
priations that were made by other
states in expositions that have taken
place in the past. I regard this mat
ter purely as a business proposition,
and believe that up to a reasonable
amount the. State of Oregon will re
ceive in benefits, directly following the
exposition, the amount of the appro
priation. I would be opposed to an
appropriation exceeding $200,000, and
I do not think that much more than
this could be expended advantageously.
"In my opinion," Mr. Reames con
cludes, "the money should be expend
ed through a commission appointed by
the Governor. I am of the opinion that
a suitable building could be erected at
a cost not to exceed $75,000 and that
the rest of the money should be ex
pended In gathering together exhibltis
ot the resources of Oregon and placing
them on exhibition. From the commis
sion that handles the money as strict
an accounting should be exacted as is
maintained over the expenditures for
the support of our state institutions. I
am of the opinion that every county in
Oregon, without exception, will assist
In gathering exhibits of the state's re
sources and causing them to be ex
hibited." MAN CONFESSES TO THEFT
Airs. Howard Raker Destitute as Re
sult of Her Husband s Crime.
Mrs. Howard Baker, of 3SS Jefferson
street, Tuesday night lost a husband and
gained a subsistence, when Detectives
Royle and Price and Patrolman Hew
ston arrested Baker in a department
store, charging him with the theft of
30 overcoats In the last two months,
four department stores being his vic
tims. He confessed, and was recog
nized by second-hand dealers to whom
he had sold the clothes.
Mrs. Baker, visited by Royle to
prove the truth of Baker's story of
having a wife and baby, proved to be
without funds, and said that she would
prefer that Baker be in Jail. The
store which was his latest victim, at
the detective's suggestion, sent her a
full order of all kinds of groceries and
apparel for herself and child, and
Baker was locked up, charged with
larceny.

OPEN HOUSE IS HELD
Mammoth Reception Feature
of Day at Y. M. C. A.
BIG PROGRAMME IS VARIED
Boys and Their Elders Enjoy "Gym"
and Lecture Rooms Work and
Growth of Association Sub
jects of Addresses.
The varying viewpoints from which
the members look upon the Y. M. C. A.
was well exemplified yesterday after
noon at the commencement of the
mammoth reception at the building at
Sixth and Taylor streets. From 3
o'clock until 9:30 in one or other of
the seven main rooms were entertain
ments "of varied character going on
simultaneously. Decorations of green
eater at tne last . e o ' ?
were much in evidence, those in the
boys' quarters having been obtained
by the youngsters themselves who
formed a foraging party to the woods.
Music, readings and stories, with
"The Story of the Portland Y. M. C.
A.," by Secretary H. W. Stone, given in
the -afternoon anil again in the even
ing, were the main features of the en
tertainment in the main lobby. In the
Association Hall L B. Rhodes, the state
secretary, delivered an interesting il
lustrated address twice on "The Boys
and Men of Oregon."
Juvenile Fnjoy Canu-x.
As was natural, games predominated
in tne juvenile department, where open
b.ouseNwas kept up all the time.
Just to show how commerce aiu not
claim all of their attentions, business
men ' met one another in the mortal
combat of basketball in the large
"gym," after their New Year's dinner,
though the younger men, with the wis
dom more usually ascribed to their
elders, brought off their struggles be
fore their dinner hour.
Handball and swimming, the latter
consisting of exhibition diving, strokes,
fancy aquatics and water polo, were
diversions throughout the day in their
respective quarters and the wireless
experts and tho automobilo wizards
were giving demonstrations ot their
proficiency in these inventions of the
modern times, in other parts of the
building.
Guests thronged the building from
top to bottom, visiting story after
story, each of which afforded yet an
other example of the multifarious inter
ests engaged in by the association.
Aasoclatinn'a Growth Told.
While the rooms afforded the con
crete proof that this was a hive of
energy, Secretary Stone was busy in
the main lobby giving plain unvar-
Inished statistics of the growth of the
work.
"The association now is 43 years
old," he said, amid applause, "and this
is the third central building we have
occupied in the course of the past 16
years, due to the fact that both the
others were outgrown, while even our
commodious quarters here are filled to
repletion.
"Forty-three years ago this associa
tion was organized in the basement of
the First Tresbyterian Church, which
stood then in the woods where now the
Spalding building is situated. E.
Quacke..bush, who still lives, was our
first president, while among the other
prominent pioneers who have taken' the
greatest interest in the growth of the
movement was General O. O. Howard.
JOO Departments Handled.
"To begin with the work of the so
ciety was much similar to that of a
mission. Rooms were rented along
First street, great care being taken to
have a good reading room. Temperance
was at that time one of the main lines
of work.
"Mrdern work began some 16 years
ago with the first building on Fourth
and Yamhill streets, H. W. Corbett and
W. M. Ladd buying the site. In four
years the edifice was insufficient and
soon the new one erected on the same
site was also totally inadequate. The
building erected there was sold and our
present magnificent quarters sprang
into existence.
"Now' we have in all over 100 depart
ments, the school having the largest
enrollment of any house of learning,
not even excepting the State Universi
ty or any of the colleges. There are
1600 members of the bible classes, there
are over 3000 who use the gymnasium,
and between 3000 and 4000 enter the
building daily. Of some sort or an
other an average of 100 meetings will
be held on each, night of the week, so
that in reality this is a large down
town university.
"To some it is an, athletic club, to
others a trade school or a commercial
school, to others again a religious mis
sion and to still more a social club."
"Youth of Oregon" In Subject.
At the same time, in the auditorium,
I. B. Rhodes, the state Y. M. C. A. sec
retary, was telling of the youth of
Oregon. By means of striking illustra
tions, he led the audience from the one
great industry to another, from huge
stacks of wheat to enormous operations
connected with the staple industries
of the state. Then he threw onto the
screen a picture of the Oregonian build
ing, and alongside of it, overtopping
even its great height, was a boy. "There
is our greatest industry," he said.
Then he proceeded to tell of the work
of all the Y. M. C A.'s in the state, of
the town and city associations and the
work they accomplish, of the great
work that Is done In the mining camps
and logging camps, at the railway
Junctions, all illustrated with pictures
of actual scenes as they were occurring.

GEARY'S FRIENDS WATCH
Fear of Arrest for Peddling Without
License Causes Activity.
Friends of Martin Geary, he of the
Rock Island passenger office, are ex
pecting nightly , to be called upon to
bail him out of Jail. They fear that
Geary will tie arrested for peddling
without a license.
Be it known, Geary is what they call
a maple syrup kid. That is, he ac
commodates his friends annually by
sending to- Vermont for the surplus
supply of maple syrup and distributing
it at cost plus the freight rate. He
has standing orders with nearly all
the railroad men and a few outsiders.
Every year he knows just about how
much syrup he can sell. But this sea
son the railroads raised the minimum
rate that is, they made a rate with
the qualification that ar certain mini
mum amount of syrup had to be
shipped. If less than the specified
minimum shipment is made it has to
nav lust as much as if the full amount
is sent. So Geary ordered enough
svruo to fill out he minimum figure.
This left him with a surplus of syrup
KH.
":.J7: S,
and a shortage of customers. It foroed
him to seek disposition of his surplus
stock. In disposing of it he trans
gressed all laws of trade. It !s said,
and even went so far as to try to sell
some of it at auction.
That's the reason his friends are
afraid that he will become ensnared
in the proverbial meshes of the law
and that's the reason they are staying
up nights expecting to be called upon
to get him out of the calaboose.
SALT LAKE CHANGE POINT
Ogden to Be Discontinued as Trans
fer Point to Eastern Road.
Passengers traveling between port
land and the East via Salt Lake City
will be allowed to change cars at Sali
Lake City instead of at Ogden after
February 1.
This is regarded as a decided con
venience to tho traveling public. Here
tofore the Oregon Short Line and the
Denver & Rio Grande roads have not
interchanged business at Salt Lake
City, but at Ogden. Consequently, per
sons traveling from Portland to the
East and wanting to stop over at Salt
Lake City either had to wait from two
to three hours at Ogden, according to
train connections, or pay additional fare
between Ogden and Salt Lake City.
Thousands of people are affected by
this arrangement, as there is a univer
sal desire on the part of tourists to stop
at Salt Lake City on account of the
numerous attractions there, but no one
wants to stop at Ogden, where there
is nothing to see.
Travelers can have their baggage
checked through Salt Lake City on
stop-over tickets, but if they use their
baggage at Salt Lake City it will have
to be transferred between the Short
Line depot and the Denver & Rio
Grande depot.
W. C. McBrlde, general agent for the
passenger department of the Denver &
Rio Grande in Portland, received notice
of the new plan yesterday.
