THE 3IORXIXG OKEGOXIAN, THURSDAY, 3IAT 21, 1914. HEUSNER BRINGS UP CHARGE OF LIBEL Foreman Ketchum Ignores District Attorney in Handling Case. YEAR-OLD FIGHT TAKEN UP J. C. Beck, Scott Brooke and Others IVlio Led AVI lining Fight Against Broadway Grant to Hensner Are Accused. The Multnomah County grand Jury, of which T. A. Ketchum Is foreman, Tuesday returned indictments against J. C. Beck, T. Scott Brooke. , T. A. Llnthicum. E. Henry Wemme, E. T. Ames, the Empress Theater Company, and H. W. Pierong", manager, and the Pantag-es Theater Company, and J. A.' Johnson, manager, all well-known cit izens, for alleged libel against George I". Hensner, a Portland railroad ' man and capitalist, who was the principal in applying tor a street railway fran chise on Broadway one year ago. Mr, Heusner's application for a franchise was defeated by a vote of the citizens of Portland by a heavy majority. Campalsrm "Ad" la Bants. The alleged offense was connected with the publication of an advertise ment in the newspapers and the flash ing of advertising slides upon the cur tains of the Empress and Pantages theaters. The defendants say that the indictment is inspired by Mr. Heusner acting through Mr. Ketchum, who was an ardent partisan of the Heusner Iranchise. Mr. Ketchum admits his friendship for Heusner, but denies un due influence or any particular activ ity for the franchise. The alleged libel consists of a car toon designed to influence the votes of the citizens of Portland against the granting of the franchise to Heusner. . "Grab" tiled 1b Title. It is headed: "Will You Prevent This Franchise Grab?" The advertisement states: "George K. Huesner is trying to put over the sort of a railway franchise grab that every city in the country has been fighting for years! For $37,500 think what a paltry sum." The advertisement is illustrated with a picture of two hands, one open over the .Broadway bridge and the other holding a sack labeled $37,500.. In the body is the statement that Mr.. Huesner wanted a "25-year right to eight miles of Portland's streets, including Broadway: a. grant that mt.y bo sold afterward for several million dollars." It is also stated that the franchise or. the ballot had been redrafted by Mr. lluesner's attorneys, omitting "five of tiie most vitally protective measures contained in the franchise offered him by the Council." It concluded- by asking the voters to go to the polls and vote against the franchise, which was denounced as a 'bare-face franchise grab." The advertisement was signed by People's Klghts League by T, A. Xin thlcum. secretary, and marked "paid advertisement." J. C. Beck is a director of the Beck Investment Company, which pwns the Beck building, at Broadway and Oak, president of the Seventh-street, now Broadway, Improvement Association and president of the People's Rights League, which fought the Heusner franchise. T. Scott Brooke, one of the owners of the half block on the north side of Washington between Broadway and Park. T. A. Llnthicum is a real estate man and secretar-y of the People's Power League. E. Henry Wemme is a prominent retired Portland capitalist, who owns several pieces of property on Broadway. lie is now ill in Southern California. E. T. Ames is a real estate dealer who represents property interests on Broadway. H. W. Pierong, manager of the Empress The ater, and J. A. Johnson, manager of Pantages Theater, -appear in the case because, it is presumed, slides repro ducing the alleged libelous advertise ment were displayed in the theaters during the latter days of the franchise campaign.-. The date of the alleged publication was May 27, 1913, a week prior to the election at;, which the franchise was voted down. "All that I did in lighting the Heus Jinr franchise 1 did in protecting my property," said J. C. Beck, president of the People's' Rights League, last night. "I fought the franchise . because I thought I was right and if I had the thing to do over I would tight it just as hard again. I haven't been arrest ed yet. in fact I didn't know I was indicted until advised by reporters to 'liight. In -due time we will make the proper defense." Law RKrtel. SSOy Air. Brooke. "It . is well known that I took an active part in the fight against the Heusner franchose, which was defeated at the polls last June nearly two to one," said Scott Brooke last night. "The fiwht was made in the name of the Peo pie's- Rights League and was clean and aboveboard. in conducting our pub licity campaign we took pains to vio late no terms of the corrupt practice statute and certainly believe we did not libel Mr. Heusner. "I think it best not to make any ex tended statement at present, except to Kay that Mr. Ketchum. foreman of the grand jury which has returned these indictments, was one of the most active workers for Mr. Heusner in his fight Joined with us in the fight were the four newspapers of the city, who op posed the franchise in their editorial columns. When the proper time comes i will be ready to reopen this fight ana justify my position' in it and will be supported, by every member of this league.' .The investigation, which has been under way for several weks. was taken up by the grand jury on its own -ini tiative, T.-' A. Ketchum. foreman, said. lMstrict Attorney Evans has said re peatedly that he has not been advised by the grand jury of its purpose in investigating interstate bridge affairs and "other matters." and Mr. Ketchum admittad yesterday that he believed Mr. Evans was not in sympathy with the indictments. Mr. Heusner Klrat Acts. "This matter was called to our at tention first by Mr. Heusner, I believe." said Mr. Ketchum. "He is the aggrieved party, lie told us his story of his fight to get a franchise to operate streetcars in Portland and the fights that had been made against him. He told us parties.that we might call as witnesses. if we were interested in his charges, and what testimony we might expect Irora them. The witnesses whose names appear n the indictment aro Edwin E. James, Charles E. Sawyer. Thomas Scott Broofce, P.. M. Townsend, T. A. Linthi cum, George 1-'. Heusner. David Bots ford. J. C Beck and Uskar Huber. District Attorney Evans refused yes terday to. discuss the indictments, re plying in answer to questions that it is the grand jury a fight and tue must give out any information and take responsibility for the bills. It is ru' mored, however, that Mr. Evans ad vised the grand Jury not to return the bill and that the action reported yes terday was taken over this advice. Mr. Uenuer Consulted. Mr. Ketchum admitted that he had consulted frequently with Mr. Heusner relative to the matter and several times consulted attorneys other than Mr. Evans and his deputies during the con sideration of the matter. This, he said. was done when those advising with him in the matter asked him to con sult with an attorney in whom he had confidence before any final action was taken. Mr. Ketchum mentioned W r. Fentoa and Ben Dey among the attor neys he advised with. "But these conferences were only in regard to corporation features." added Mr. Ketchum. "The indictments were returned in their regular course. We voted them and the bills were prepared by Deputy Hammersly, who advised with us frequently during our delib eration on the matter. "The bills are returned because we disapprove of three or five or 20 men. who happen to have money behind them, undertaking to defeat a measure by the use of the press and other form of publicity, that the people otherwise would pass." George F. Heusner refused to'd iscuss the indictments other than to sav that anything Mr. Ktachum had given out ior Tuoncation he believed would be accurate and correct. I didn't know the indictments had been returned until just this minute," anu x con t care to discuss them. My idea is that matters that go before the grand jury are secret, for which reason I don't care to discuss testimony or information I have given before the grand jury or to any of its members. The indictments speak for themselves." Reports that Mr. Ketchum was inti mately connected with the fight made By Heusner to obtain a franchise were denied by the grand jury foreman, who saii tnat the only fight he had made was In an attempt to get better car service to Peninsula points. . He de nied further that the indictments re turned- yesterday are in any wav the result of or connected with the inves tigation being made now by the grand jury relative to the interstate bridge affairs. The Heusner franchise fight arose when George F. Heusner applied for a franchise to operate a standard-gauge streetcar line from the Kenton district south to the Broadway bridge, across the bridge, south on Broadway to Grant street and a loop on the West Side. After consideration of the application Dy the Council and amendments by that body, a franchise was offered to Heusner, which he refused, after which he determined to ask the people for a franchise through an initiative peti tion. Many Aid Campaign. In opposing this petition Seventh- street property owners organized the People's Rights League, that the fight might be made without violation of the corrupt practice statute. J. C. Beck, president of that league, and T. A. Linthicum, another of the defendants," secretary and treasurer, were active in the campaign. Among the members of that league who contributed to the fight against the franchise were T. B. Wilcox, the Corbett estate, the Elks Lodge, the Beck Investment Company, the North western Nattonal Bank, the Brooke es tate," John W. Blodgett, Morgan, Flied ner & Boyce, S. Benson, E. Henry Wemme. Mrs. Matthew P. Deady, Maeg- ly & Tichner, Cyrus A. Dolph. J. E. Fox- ton. Meier & Frank, Journal Publish- ng Company, Portland Hotel, the Em press Theater, the Baker Theater, the Heilig Theater, Dan J. Malarkey and others. These property owners object ed to the franchise because they thought the congestion resulting from dual occupation of Seventh street, now Broadway, by the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company and the Heus ner lines would injure their property. This congestion would result, they, thought, from the use of the street by city cars and the heavy interurban cars which would have been operated by the Heusner line. GUN EMPTY, AFTER . ALL QIEER-ACTIXG MAX MAKES SPEC TATORS DO HIS BIDDING. Octette That Laughs nt Antiea Com pelled to March Intil Sheriff - ComeM to Rescue. SAN RAFAEL, CaL. May 20. An at tempt to organize a squad of soldiers and march on Mexico got Henry Klopp, caretaker of a wealthy manufacturer's residence, into the custody of the county authorities today. In the afternoon Klopp shouldered a high-power rifle, went out to the county highway and began to execute military evolutions and firearm drills. Four actors of a moving picture com pany watched him, and laughed. Then four laborers also came down the road and also laughed. A shout of mirth went up when Klopp announced that he was getting ready tor war with Mexico. Suddenly Klopp brought the rifle to his shoulder, lev elled it at the eight men and com manded them to fall into line. They fell in. For half an hour Klopp drilled them up and down the dusty highway. He made them march and counter-march, march slowly and on the double quick, single file, double file and four abreast. Meanwhile the Sheriffs office was notified, and when the amateur soldiers were ready to drop, a deputy sheriff stole behind Klopp and laid him out. The gun was examined. It was empty. Klopp will be examined as to his sanity. QUEEN THELMA AND PRINCESSES GBEET Rose-Cheeked Beauties Shake Hands and; Kiss 'for First Time at Commercial Club. ROYAL GROUP ALL SMILES PEOPLES THEATER Initial Function Enjoyed at Ball at Multnomah Hotel Festival Celebrities Bear Their Honors With Maidenly Modesty. BY LEONE CASS. BABR. Well, I know the first line of every story that will splash the front pages of the San Francisco. Los Angeles, Salt Lake. Tacoma, Seattle, Yakima and Spokane papers when Queen Thelma, of Rosaria, and her Royal Princesses, ladies-in-waiting, arrive In those several cities. - Every scribe sent to the train to get "impressions" will chase back to his typewriter and jump right into print witn one big line: "The prettiest girls ever sent ut as delegates to represent a city arrived here today from Portland, Or." It's true about their good looks. They met together last night for the first time at a sort of how-do-you-do-I've-wanted-to-know-you party, in the Com mercial Club. Managers formed the background. Everyone Hat Smile. Everyone wore a smile. Really, I didn't notice what else anyone wore, whether the girls were garbed in gray or scarlet, because I couldn't get past the smiles. All the girls were there, ex cepting Lina Ostervold and Estelle Mc Carl, who had, by some misunderstand ing, not received notice of the hour of the meeting. The gathering was "wholly infor mal," as the society columns would put it. To go right on with the social note, "in the receiving line were 'the hosts, C. C. Colt, C. V. Cooper, W. F. Woodward, J. A. Curry, Franklyn T. Griffith, Wilbur E. Coman. Guy W. Talbot, A. H. Averill. Frank C. .Riggs, L. R. Alderman, Dr. T. L. Perkins, Ralph W. Hoyt, George L. Baker and Charles Berg." Only the receiving line wasn't a line at all. No famous Southern housewarming could have equaled the heart-warming at last night's meeting. The girls knew each other only by pictures. For weeks past each has been trying to forget the other girls and reach the top. - Last night they met, shook hands like men, and every blessed mother's daughter of them made Queen Thelma feel down deep in her heart that she was their choice and already beloved. I didn't hear a blessed word about personalities. After everybody had met everybody else a flashlight was taken of the Princesses and their Queen. Right here Is where mention must be made of the fact that Queen Thelma Is really a lovely girl, with rare, fine col oring, big brown eyes and curly, natur ally curly, dark hair. All of the Prin cesses are brunettes, save one, who is a' sincere blonde. Announcement Extraordinary at Last. . And here is where I make the an nouncement extraordinary. It is little less than sensational in this day of imitating everything off color, but these 14 girls haven't one cent's worth of rouge, switches and facial handi caps among tbem. Sometimes the gods of war and Rose Festivals do things up right. This time they did. Every one of the girls wears the Festival colors in her happy face, red lips, rose cheeks and fine, white skin. Their average age doesn't come to 21. There's nothing the least artificial in their manner. They talked easily and readily and were gracious and mighty sweet, to any one who had a question to ask. Grouped in a semi-circle, after the photo had been taken, the girls listened with close attention to brief talks made by Mr. Colt, president of the board of governors, and George L. Baker, super intendent of amusements, both of whom were Introduced by Charles Berg, pres ident of the Ad Club. Formal Vote Announced. Mr. Colt made a formal declaration of the election by reading the list of elected girls and the number of votes received. He dwelt on the -sincere in terest the board of governors has taken in the contest, congratulating the sue cessful candidates and giving- i thoughtful tribute to the unsuccessful canutaates, who, he said, had made a brave and splendid fight. Mr. Baker followed Mr. Colt in short, straight-f rom-the- shoulder talk. in wnicn he Dade the girls assure theii families that the "safety first" rule will be strictly obeyed on the tour, First Public Function Enjoyed. After the talks there was a general handshaking and the Queen and her entourage went over to. Hotel Multno mah to taste the first sweets of their proud position as guests of honor at a ball given by the Transportation Club. Today they lunch with the Ad Club, and from now on begins a round of festivities, that will make them dizzy with. Joy. PASTOR SELLS HIS CHURCH Congregation Uses Guns and Clubs in Retaliation for Act.
