NEW RAILWAY FOR
VALLEY IS ASSURED
Oregon City, Via Beaver Creek,
to Mount Angel Is Route
Wow Covered.
25 MILES IN FIRST UNIT
Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company Makes Possible Immedi
ate Resumption of 'Work on
Road Owned by Farmers.
Immediate completion of the Willam
ette Valley Southern Railway, from
Oregon City, via Beaver Creek. Mulino
and Molalla to Mount Angel and the
actual operation of the road before
the end of the present year was as
sured Thursday when the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company
agreed to guarantee a $700,000 bond
Issue necessary to finance the project.
In consideration for this arrange
ment the Willamette Valley Southern
will purchase its electric power from
the Portland railway and will inter
change its traffic with that road at
Oregon City.
Early Issue to Be Redeemed.
The Willamette Valley Southern al'
ready has about seven miles of road
completed. The remaining distance to
Mount Angel is 25 miles. This can be
built with the $700,000 accruing from
the sale of the bonds.
Under terms of a mortgage filed at
Oregon City yesterday the road can be
bonded for J3,000,000, but this entire
Issue will not be sold.- An outstanding
issue of $57,000 first mortgage bonds
will be redeemed by the present issue
eo that the entire new Issue will con
sist of first Hen securities. The Con
tinental and Commercial Trust & SaV'
Ings Bank of Chicago is trustee for
the bonds. They are being handled by
Morris Brothers in Portland.
The bonds will mature in 25 years
and pay 6 per cent. They will be call
able at 103 on any interest date by 60
days' advance notice. "
Stock of the Willamette Valley
Southern is held by farmers and other
residents of the district to be served.
Some large blocks also are held in
Oregon City. P. M. Sift and Grant B.
Dimick, both of Oregon City, are presi
dent and secretary, respectively. The
Portland company, it is understood, has
not acquired any of the stock. Frank
lin T. Griffith, president of the com
pany, last night denied Intention of ac
durinjr any of it. Mr. Griffith and C.
M. Clark, chairman of the Portland
Railway board, inspected "the prop
erty last Tuesday.
Stephen Carver and associates, who
have promoted this line, also are pro
jecting the Portland & Oregon City,
which recently secured franchises for
building a new line between those two
points. President Griffith declares that
his company does not propose to ac
quire the Portland & Oregon City.
As the money market now is offer
ing ready cash at 4'4 and 6 per cent,
it is believed that this 6 per cent bond
Issue 'will command a substantial pre
mium. Money will be available for
Immediate work.
Work: to Be Rushed.
A small force of men now is em
ployed on construction work. It is
proposed to let a new contract and
push the work with all possible speed
through the favorable weather period
this year.
The road is projected to Mount An
gel. No plans have been made for ac
tivity beyond that point.
"The line will open up a rich agri
cultural district and will develop a
section of the state that has needed
development for many years," said
President Griffith last night.

Burning brush behind King's Heights
fn the western part of the city and a
Jorest fire in the hills near Wilson
Station, in the Mount Tabor district on
the East Side, and which extended
nearly to the Clackamas County line,
sent bright glares high above Portland
last night and caused the fire depart
ment to make Investigations.

ade. Gerardy Gives Concert
BY JOSEPH M. QUENTIN.
AS Adelina Patti is the greatest
prima donna soprano of this gen
eration, Kreisler the greatest violin-
1st, Jean Gerardy, the Belgian, is the
greatest and most artistic 'cello virtuo
so in the world today. We may sit in
council upon all the 'cello players we
have ever heard in recital and the
consensus of opinion must be, if we
are fair and honest about it, that Ger
ardy Is the king of them all.
Gerardy played in concert at the
Heilig last night, and the programme
had it "Jean Gerardy, violoncello virtu
oso, in conjunction with Gabriel Ysaye,
violinist, and Carl Bruchhausen, pian
ist. Not so. It should have read.
"Gerardy," assisted by Gabriel Ysaye
and Carl Bruchhausen." Gerardy's
playing was greeted with enthusiasm
and he won an ovation, but young
Ysaye, son of the eminent violinist,
Eugene Ysaye, was out of his class.
Gabriel Ysaye is an ordinary violinist.
Ho is very nervous, self-conscious, ana
was so ill at ease before the audience
that most of the time he stood almost
with his back to the audience and
fiddled. We have violin players in
Portland who are more artistic than
Mr. Ysaye, the younger. He was down
on the programme to play Kreisler's
"Caprice Viennois," but wisely changed
his mind, and pluyed "Havannaise"
(Saint Saens). Mr. Bruchhausen is an
accomplished pianist and he played
with artistic finish.
But Gerardy! He amply atoned for
any slight disappointment he may
have felt toward young Mr. Ysaye. The
Gerardy 'cello tone is goregous spark
ling, large and is so much of a poem
that all 'cello playing from now on
must be measured after the Gerardy
'cello tone. It was a pity. that Gerardy
played from music sheets, the Beeth
oven "Sonata in A Major," The rendi-

Withdrawn From Race for
. ' Governor.
tion was superb, but it left his audi
ence cold, as his magnetism was hid
den. But with the Boellman "Varia'
tions" and also the Boccherini "Suite'
the audience discovered Grardy for
the first time and really sensed his
artistic worth. Gerardy's recalls were
many and his encores splendid, espe
cially the popper "Gavotte,"
The concert was under the direction
of Lois Steers-Wynn Com an. and an
nouncement is made of the celebrated
Flonzaley Quartet in concert April 27.
COUNTY INCREASE SEEN
CLERK: COFFEY SHOWS GAIN IJT
FEBRUARY OF 504.
DevrenKC Reported Only la Two Depart
ments, Miscellaneous Fees and
Recording" DtvlMion.
Total receipts in County Clerk Cof
fey's office during February, 1914, show
an increase of $504.78 over the receipts
In February, 1913, according to a com
parative report completed yesterday by
Deputy Erkins. In only two depart
ments, the miscellaneous fees and the
recording department, was there a der
crease this year.
The decrease in the miscellaneous
fees is due to the decrease in the num
ber of marriage licenses issued as a re
sult of the medical examination re
quired. The decrease of 55 marriage
licenses, which would have netted the
county $3 each, had they been issued,
nearly offsets the decrease of $167.35
in the miscellaneous fees. The big de
crease in the recording department Is
caused by the decrease of 219 instru
ments received for record and the de
crease of 60 marginal releases. Por

VICE-PRESIDENT AND . MANAGER
TO GO TO SAN UVENTIX.
Weigher Escapes With Jail, When New
Trial Is Refused, but Stay of Exe
cution for Appeal Is Given.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 20 The
two officials and one employe of the
Western Fuel Company who were re
cently convicted of conspiracy to de
fraud the Federal Government received
prison sentences tonight from Judge
Dooling. o'f the United States District
Court. James B. Smith, vice-president
and general manager, was sentenced to
serve lVt years in San Quentin and
to pay a fine of $5000; Fred C. Mills,
superintendent, was also sentenced to
lft years in San Quentin, and Edward
H. Mayer, a weigher, was sentenced
to a year in the Alameda County Jail.
Judge Dooling sentenced Smith,
Mills and Mayer immediately on his
denial of & motion for a new trial,
which was argued by counsel for both
sides all afternoon. Mayer's sentence
was originally 1 years in San Quentin,
but Judge Dooling reconsidered it and
made it one year in order that the con
victed man might be sent to the Ala
meda County Jail instead of the pen
itentiary. A stay of execution of 20 days was
granted the . defense, who will file a
bill of exceptions with the court with
in that time as the first step in an
appeal to the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals.
The arguments in the motion for a
new trial were begun last Saturday
by counsel for the defense and con
tinued today. The defense tried to
show that the trial jury had been in
fluenced by newspaper articles in ar
riving at its verdict of guilty and to
that end produced affidavits from sev
eral of the jurymen.
The prosecution responded with
counter affidavits from the same jury
men to the effect that although the
newspaper articles in question had
been read, the jury had been under
no influence other than the evidence
adduced during the trial.

MR. STEVENS QUITS
RAGEFQHGQVERNOR
Unexpected Business Calls As
pirant for Republican Nom
ination From State.
ANNOUNCEMENT IS MADE
Loyal Friends Are Thanked lor Ef
forts in Ills Behalf and Return
to Portland and Support of
Party Is Promised.
Unexpected pressure of important
business is given as the cause for the
withdrawal of Robert L. Stevens, three
times Sheriff of Multnomah County and
one of the foremost candidates for
the Republican nomination for Gov
ernor at the impending primaries. He
announced bis withdrawal -from the
gubernatorial race Thursday night.
Mr. Stevens received a telegram at 4
o'clock yesterday requesting him to
come to Detroit, Mich., immediately on
business connected with an invention
in which he is eavily interested. He
left last night at 7:25 o'clock over the
Northern Pacific. Before leaving he
sent a formal statement to The Orego
nian announcing his withdrawal. He
will be absent probably for three or
four weeks. '
The withdrawal of Mr. Stevens from
trie race leaves eight aspirants in the
field for the Republican nomination
George C. Brownell, of Oregon City;
Gus C. Moser, of Portland; A. M. Craw,
ford, of Salem; Drv James Withycombe,
of Corvallis; Grant B. Dimick, of Ore
gon City; T. T. Geer. of Portland;
Charles A. Johns, of Portland, and W.
A. Carter.
Friends Are Thanked.
Mr. Stevens statement of with
drawal follows:
"I have been suddenly called Bast
on an important business matter
which could not be postponed and as
I may be detained for three or four
weeks at a period when my presence
here would be of vital importance to
my campaign, I have decided .ta with
draw from the contest. It is a situa
tion where I cannot properly attend to
business and politics at the same time.
I Sincerely regret that I am compelled
to leave at this time when the loyal
work of many friends throughout the
state has assured my nomination
beyond a doubt. To these kind
friends, I can only say that I appreciate
to the fullest extent the ardent, un
selfish support they have given me and
I trust that some time in some way I
can reciprocate.
"I will return to Portland as soon as
I can arrange my business affairs and
in the future as in the past will do
what I can to contribute to the suc
cess of the Republican party."
R. L. Stevens is the largest stock-
holder in the manufacture at Detroit,
Mich., of a coin-paying machine named
the "Payograph." The inventor of
the machine is N. C. Oviatt, who for
merly lived in Portland. The device
has just been perfected after five
years of study and expenditure, during
which numerous patents were issued.
Sale of Invention Planned.
The factory for the manufacture of
the payograph has been completed at
Detroit and the manufacture of the
machine begun. The company has
been negotiating for some time for the
sale of the Invention to an adding
machine company and arrangements
had been made for the culmination of
the deal about June 1 this year. It
Is thought by his friends that several
adding machine companies are compet
ing for the purchase of the invention.
The telegram merely requested Mr.
Stevens to come East immediately and
he left in less than three hours. At
tirst receipt of the news the ex-Sheriff
decided that he would make a quick
trip and return to continue his cam
paign, but after deliberation he con
cluded that he had too much at stake
to hurry his trip. Furthermore he
realized that he might be delayed in
definitely and finally decided to with
draw from the competition absolutely.
The friends of the ex-Sheriff ex
pressed regret that he felt compelled
to step out of the race, but are not
disposed to blame him in making his

FUTURE OF OREGON
MID ILLS DISCUSSED
C. M. Clark, at Banquet, Calls
State Overdeveloped and
Taxes Too High.
MORE FACTORIES NEEDED
Prosperity to Come, Is Statement,
and It Is Put Vp to People to
Alter Conditions and Get
More Men on Farms.
Portland's Industrial ills were dis
cussed frankly and its commercial fu
ture hopefully presented at the Com
mercial Club Thursday night when the
club and the Manufacturers' Association
jointly tendered a complimentary ban
quet to C. M. Clark, chairman of the
board of the Portland Railway. Light
&. Power Company, who is on his an
nual visit to the city.
Mr. Clark was tho principal speaker.
While he frequently reminded his hear
ru that he is not a pessimist, he an
alyzed the present Industrial condition
in" the city and the state in terms born
of understanding and in language that
left no doubt of the responsibility with
which he charges the people of this
community if they expect capital to
aid m their further development.
"Oregon now confronts the prospec-;
tive investor with a tax rate higher i
than . anywhere else in the United i
States, with the possible exception of
the State of Washington," Mr. Clark
pointed out.
Over-Development Charged.
"Porllsmd and OreKon are over-de
veloped in proportion to their popula
tion," lie continued.
"You have millions of dollars invest-
ed in this state that are not earning
a cent of Income. All this property
must pay its proportion or. taxes, tnat
is one reason the taxes are nign.
He explained that the rortiana tta.il
wav. Lieht & Power Company alone lias
an aggregate investment of 110.000,000,
in addition to its other investments,
that is not earning a cent.
"Why?" he asked. "Because we, with
all the rest of this territory, have built
ten ranidlv. We have based our de
velopment upon what happened be
tween 1905 and 1SUU. we expeciea
that development to continue indefi
nitely. That's why we pay such taxes.
"And you people nave io cnange it.
Brighter Light Pointed Ont.
In contrast to these conditions Mr.
Clark pointed to some brighter lights
on the horizon, principal among which
he enumerated the easier money mar
ket, which now enables legitimate in
vestors to borrow at 4 per cent, aud
the prospective operation of the new
currency law, which nils business men
of the Kast with hope.
The proposed anti-trust legislation
has to be met yet, however, he remind
ed the audience, and this fills the busi
ness atmosphere with a certain degTee
of uncertainty.
"People have been working for the
last few years on the theory that the
railroads and public service corpora
tions are not to make money," he said,
"and the Legislatures and commissions
have responded to that sentiment. If
this condition is changed, if the future
action of Congress Is not too radical,
if Mexico eves ceases its turmoil, if
Congress ever adjourns and, most im
portant of all, if the railroads get their
5 per cent increase in freight rates, we
ought to have prosperity.
"Then it is up to you people to get
men onto the farms and to secure fac
tories. They go hand in hand. Keep
your prices for farm land down to the
lowest possible minimum."
Mr. KlnRdley Totmanter.

Association, was toastmaster. The

INSURANCE FAKE ALLEGED
Sew York Officials Investigate
Company's Charges.
NEW YORK, MareS. IS. Magistrate
Appleton and Assistant District Attor
ney Miller have started an investiga
tion In the Tombs Court o an alleged
attempt to swindle the Philadelphia
Life Insurance Company out of $15,000
on a policy issued on the life of Samuel
Caminsky, on March 25, 1911, at that
time living at No. 147 Baxter street.
The validity of other policies,
amounting to $165,000 is involved.
Michael Goodman, of the Hotel Lyn
deman and David Alexander, former
agent of the insurance company, have

alleged they conspired with Dr. Fran
cis McMorrough. former local examin
ing physician for the company, to pass
Caminsky, who was 60 years old and
suffering from three serious ailments.
Dr. McMorrough, a witness for the
State, testified he arranged with
Goodrnan and Alexander to pass
Caminsky. He said he had a standing
arrangement with Alexander to re
port favorably on subnormal cases.
The doctor exclaimed passionately
in court: "These fellows were crooks
and they made me one. I am a South
erner. The mott of my family Is
"Death Before Dishonor.' What I did
I did to obtain a start here. New York
was my goal. I sacrificed my honor
for it"
Caminsky died on December 2. 1912,
leaving a widow. She refused to
make an application for the $15,000
Insurance and assigned her interests
to Samuel Lustbaker, Jr. The com
pany refused to pay the policy and
