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.

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.

Initial Function Enjoyed at Ball

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
