APPEAL MAY BE TAKEN Derense Charges That Police Are Prejudiced,, but Court Holds That Testimony Is Sound Vnless Shown Untrue. In a long opinion delivered by Coun ty Judge Cleeton at the opening of court yesterday morning, the consti tutionality of the abatement statute passed by the 1913 Legislature was up held and Louise Olcese enjoined from using the premises at 85 and 87 North Second street for immoral purposes. Un til the decree is signed Mrs. Olcese will not be disturbed. After that the nui sance which the court found has ex isted at the place must be abated or the property will be sold by the state, as provided in the statute, unless the court should grant a stay of execution pending an appeal to the Supreme Court. Wilson T. Hume, attorney for Mrs. Olcese. intimated in open court that the decision of Judge Cleeton will be carried to the Oregon Supreme Court. Case Is First Provocation. Thia is the first case under the new abatement law which has been taken through the courts. Abatement pro ceedings have been instituted against other properties, but in each Instance the nuisance has been abated to the tatisfaction of the District Attorney.

Counsel for Mrs. Olcese objected to the bond insuring that the place will be conducted in an orderly and lawful manner, saying to the court that the police have continued to harass Mrs. Olcese in the past and even though a bond to keep an orderly house were given, it would not insure protection to his client. Judge Cleeton replied that from the evidence presented in the case it was shown plainly that the house has been conducted In an unlaw ful manner in the past and that Mrs. Olcese would have to show good faith in her effort to improve the standard of the house before she could hope to be immune from police interference. Constitutional Doubt Removed. Judge Cleeton said that he had looked into the constitutionality of the statute, which bad been questioned by the defendant and that he must hold it constitutional. Counsel for the defense had urged in argument made last week that the testimony of the policemen was un satisfactory in that the officers are prejudiced against Mrs. Olcese and have been for a long time. The court held that unless the defense could show a motive that would cause the policemen to perjure themselves in an effort to persecute Mrs. Olcese, he would give the same credence to their testimony that he would to other wit nesses. This motive, the court held, had not been shown. FALSE PRETENSE CHARGED Ben F. Atherton Arrested for Ob taining Loan From Alice Snyder. Ben F.

Mr. Ewlng arrived in Portland yes terday from Spokane and will remain here during the rest of the Beaver-Seal series. Mrs. Ewing and daughter. Miss Leila Ewing, accompany the popular San Francisco magnate. "My trip to Seattle and Spokane had no connection at all with any expan sion propaganda," said Mr. Ewing. "Mrs. Ewing and myself celebrated our silver wedding anniversary the other day, and we thought a nice swing around the Northwest would benefit both of us. "So far as expanding the Coast League is concerned, I am against It. We are doing nicely now, after a long pull, and there is no sense in experi menting until the outlook appears more favorable. Salt Lake, San Diego, Seat tle and some of the rest of these cities may be all right, but not for us yet Asked if he opposed granting a re newal to the present Portland North western League club in Portland, Mr. Ewing said: "I am not a director, but am gener ally at the meetings. Now I am not bitterly opposed to a Class B team in Portland, but it's certain that Portland is not drawing up to former years, and, if it is the B team that is cutting In. then tho McCredies ought to be the first to realize it. "While here I intend to do a little investigating on my own hook, and if I find the B team is not the cause I'll certainly not oppose granting another lease to Nick Williams' crew."

"Come with me," interrupted the At the'police station they were asked to explain their actions. With charges of vagrancy looming in the immediate offing, they admitted that they had been detailed to keep tab on Winter. A telephone call to Burns headquar ters confirmed their statement, and they were allowed to go free, but the detective agency also allowed them to go.

Winter's Car Still Missing. Winter's car is still missing. It was a new car, but his regret at its being "lifted" is tempered by his relief at the lifting of the shadow which until late Tuesday night perched above his chamber door or dogged his footsteps. And the young man Sergeant Harms arrested as a possible motorcycle thief? He was able to convince the police that Priest had met him but a few minutes before, and, asking him if he could ride a motorcycle, had persuaded him to ride the machine after Priest as the latter walked down the street. Priest and Cooper bore him out in this. Louvre, was on his way home at Glon Harbor on the Linnton Road. At Nine teenth and Northrup his motorcycle was run into by the auto coming west on Northrup.
