WHITFIELD TURNED DOWN Minority stockholders to Meet Soou and Take Some Action, Prob ably In Appeal to Courts. Accusations Many. A wrangle resulted yesterday when the stockholders of the Portland Con crete Pile Company met at an ad journed annual meeting in the Women of Woodcraft Hall, Tenth and Taylor atreets. Two resolutions reflecting on the management of the company, presented by the minority stockholders, were de feated decisively by the few men con trolling the majority of the stock. The latter faction also swung things its own way when it came to electing di rectors. Eleven men Thomas Bilyeu. presi dent of tbe company; his three brothers Haman Bilyeu, Edward Bilyeu and Peter Bilyeu; W. S. Bowen, v. M. LaKe V. W. Skiff. A. S Nichols, A. Jj. Mac Leod, F. P. King and J. M. Crook hold 18,65 shares, or $186,650 worth of stock. Thomas Bllveu. A. S Nichols, A. L. MacLeod and F. P. King are the heaviest stockholders. each owning S750 shares. Minority Files Complaint. The remaining 16,670 shares, or stock of $165,700, are divided among 640 stockholders, owning all the way from one share up. These minority stock holders, who overwhelmingly out number the rest as individuals, claim that the few stockholders who control the affairs of the company are run iiin things to suit themselves with out any regard for the wishes of the minority. Thomas Bilyeu, president of the com- nanv. was originally given S250.000 worth of stock for patent rights to his Inventions used by the company. Mr Bilyeu Is a director of the United States Cashier Company, now In the hands of a receiver, and was the inventor of patents that were put in use by that organization. On the floor of the meeting yesterday F. H. Whitfield, formerly attorney for the company, introduced a resolution setting forth that the company was "insolvent" as the result of "gross op erations" and asking that the officers be requested to resign, to be succeeded by trustees appointed by the stockhold ers. Resolution Is "Swamped." This resolution was "swamped" by those holding the majority of the stock, the larged share who held in the mi nority stock supporting the motion in vain. The resolution In substance declared It appeared that the company had no available funds and is heavily involved and the president and directors did not propose any plan looking to the suc cessful operation of the company; and by a written report it would appear that the company is insolvent, that the assets have no appreciable casli value, that the company is in debt for about $50,000. The resolution further de clared that large sums of money have been lost by the officers in the opera tions of the company and all the re sources of the company have been ex pended. It asked that "the present officers and directors be requested to resign and that trustees be appointed by the stockholders to take such ac tion with respect to paying the debts of the company, disposing of the prop erty and bringing any action, suit or proceedings which in their Judgment may be proper or right against the for mer officers of the company, or any other person, to recover any moneys or property belonging to the company or lost to the company by the unlawful or Improper act or conduct of any person." It asked that the trustees be F. H. Fleming. E. J. Jaeger, J. W. Bailey, Flora M. Wenban and J. W. Beveridge. Administration Holds I'pper Hand. When It came to the election of offi cers, the administration again retained its supremacy. Tbe following seven were elected as directors: Dr. A. S. Nichols, Frank P. King. Thomas Bilyeu, A. L. MacLeod, all four re-elected; Balph A. Coan, F. W. Skiff and E. J. Jaeger. All of these men received 20,000 or more votes, each stockholder being allowed a vote for each share. The only other man nominated, J. W. Bailey, avowedly in sympathy with the complaints of the minority stockhold ers, received the vote only of about 4800 shares of stock, illustrating that he was not satisfactory to those hold ing tbe balance of power. Directly in the face of his former de feat, Mr. Whitfield offered a second resolution as follows: Resolved, That the directors who shall bo elected at the present adjourned meeting; of stockholders of this company, be and hereby are authorised and directed and in structed to terminate the litigation pertain ing to the patents of this company, with all possible speed, and Institute any and all necessary actions, both civil and criminal. In their Judgment necessary, expedient or lawful against any person, firm or corpora tion responsible for the loss of any property or money belolnging to this company or "which has been lost or rendered valueless by their acts or conduct. This resolution was defeated decisively-Patent Value Sought. When rebuked by V. E. Funkhauser for introducing this resolution, Mr. Whitfield said that he had offered It to establish the value of the patents sold to the corporation by Bilyeu for $250. 000 In shares. "These patent rights are at present challenged in the courts, and until the litigation is settled they are not worth a penny," said Mr. Whitfield. "I want to find out how much these patents are worth, and if they are not worth any thing I want Mr. Bilyeu to return the $-'50,000 of stock. "Within the next few days the mi nority stockholders will meet to deter mine what they can do to protect their interests. The result probably will be that we will appeal to the courts to compel the directors to give an account of the assets of the company. One of the reasons why the company became wrecked was because Us officers spent their time in selling more stock in stead of going out after business and leaving the salesmanship to experts. A year ago there wasn't even a meeting of the stockholders. Of the directorate elected today a majority of them, at least four of the seven, are the tools of Bilyeu." .

Burnett Goodwin, who resigned as assistant secretary of the Northwestern Klectric Company a week ago to go into business for himself, was given a farewell surprise party by his for mer associates in the local offices of the company, Monday night. The first Mr. tiooawln Knew or tne affair was when C. C. Craig, sales man ager for the Northwestern Electric, called at his new insurance offices in the Yeon building and asked him to dinner. When they got to the place, a downtown cafe, they found 34 other Northwestern Electric men sitting at a table waiting for them. Mr. Craig presided. A set of resolu tions, with the name of W. E. Coman, vice-president and general manager, heading the list of signers, expressing regret at Mr. Goodwin's decision to leave the company and wishing him success in his new undertaking, was read.

Attacking Official Desists After One Swing Short Word Is Passed Now Partisan League Supports Inquiry. Investigation of the purchase of bug exterminator by the county, which was started by Commissioner Holman, was the cause of a near-physical encounter between Mr. Hart and Mr. Holman in the Commission chambers yesterday. Commissioner Holman made the statement a week ago that Commis sioner Hart had threatened to give out the names of county checkers employed as carpenters through a mistake which later was corrected by Mr. Holman. if the latter demanded an investigation of county affairs. Mr. Hart denied making these threats when a reporter told Mr. Hart that Mr. Holman had made remarks to this effect. "Did Holman say that?" demanded Mr. Hart. "Well, Just wait until he shows up." Just then Mr. Holman walked Into the Commission chambers. "Did you say that I told you I didn't want to take any action in the Mur nane matter because I was afraid you'd start action in the bug-juice affair?' he demanded. "I did," briefly replied Commissioner Holman. "You're a liar." retorted Mr. Hart, as he squared off and struck at Mr. Hol man. The latter backed away and Hart's "blow" fell nearly four feet short. Mr. Hart then desisted from his attack and retired to his seat. The Non-Partisan League has decid ed to Join the Taxpayers" League in the investigation of county affairs or dered at the request of Mr. Holman, including the purchase by the former County Court, of which Commissioners Lightner and Hart were members, of a large supply of bedbug poison at S2 a gallon, which a local concern offered to duplicate at 65 cents a gallon. SMITH IM TO U'REN DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE FOR GOV ERNOR SO FAR IGNORES LETTER. Clackamas Man's Right to Question Candidate Regarding State and Na tional Prohibition Is Challenged. Dr. C. J. Smith Democratic nominee for Governor, has not answered yet the open letter from W. S. U'Ren. Prohi bition nominee for Governor, under date of July 3, asking him if he is for state and National prohibition. He said yesterday that he didn't know whether he would answer it. "I rather question Mr. U'Ren's right to ask me such a question," said Dr. Smith. "I haven't replied to him yet, and in any event, I shall not have time to do so until next Saturday. I'll decide about it then." Dr. Smith left Portland last night on a campaign trip which will take him first to Cove and thence to Albany. He will return to this city Saturday. In his letter to Dr. Smith, Mr. U'Ren asked this question: "Are you in favor of state and Na tional prohibition of the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors? Do you tavor adoption of the Oregon dry amendment by the people next November?" BARNES OF NEW YORK HERE Distinguished Visitor Is Gunter's Hero on Majestic Film. Archibald Clavering Gunter's works are to be seen in the films. The first. "Mr. Barnes of New York," one of his best novels, has been filmed by the Vitagraph Company and will be seen at the Majestic Theater today. Those who remember the thrills of the Corsican vendetta in which Mr. Barnes became involved, the bombard ment of Alexandria and the other ex citing situatians of the novel, will ap preciate the film more than the rather weak three-act dramatization of the novel. Patient Who First Testified He Saw Mrs. Carman in Husband's Of fice Now Declares He Is Not Sure of Identity. JIINEOLA, N. Y., July 14. The story of Mrs. Florence Conklin Carman's movements Just before and after Mrs. Louise Bailey fell to the floor of Dr. Edwin Carman's office with a bullet In her heart the night of June 30 were unfolded by nine witnesses before the grand Jury today. Meanwhile detectives were running down a clew which it was believed would reveal the identity of two strange women seen hurrying from the doctor's office a few minutes after the tragedy. These women, it is believed, may be able to corroborate the testimony of Elwood T. Bardes at the inquest and the story told the grand Jury today by Celia Coleman, a negro maid in the Carman home. Maid Changes Her Story. It was Bardes" statement that he saw a woman dressed as Mrs. Carman was dressed walk away from outside a window in Dr. Carman's office im mediately after Bardes heard a crash of glass and" the report of a revolver that was responsible for the arrest of Mrs. Carman. At the inquest Celia Coleman flatly denied that she had seen Mrs. Carman the night of the murder from the time her mistress left the dinner table until 15 minutes after the shot was fired. Today, according to reliable authori ty, the maid declared that after she heard the tinkle of breaking glass and the report of a pistol, her mistress hurried into the kitchen through the back door and went upstairs. Doctor's Story Unchanged. Dr. Carman's story, it is understood, was much the same as the one he told at the inquest. He was not asked to sign a waiver of Immunity. The murdered woman's family and relatives were called to tell of her actions the day of the murder and how they were informed of her death. George Colder, a patient, has changed his story since the inquest, at which he said he was sure it was Mrs. Car man he saw Iwalk through the hall just prior to the murder and that he was also positive he saw her on the porch and in her husband's office while Mrs. Bailey's body was still ly ing on the floor. His revised asser tion is that he is not sure the woman he saw was Mrs. Carman. The Dis trict Attorney said Golder had at first made an "honest mistake." District Attorney Smith said the jurors questioned Celia Coleman close ly. The amplifications she made were of the utmost importance, he declared. Mrs. Carman Makes Statement. While the grand jury was in session a statement was given out by Mrs. Car man through her attorney. George Levy. She said in part: "I ask that judgment be suspended until the entire truth in regard to the murder of poor Mrs. Bailey becomes known. I am satisfied that the truth will come out, and when I am free Dr. Carman and I will never rest until the assassin of Mrs. Bailey is found. "This terrible punishment has been meted out to me for the suspicion 1 permitted to crowd out the love I hold for my husband. My little baby has been sent to the home of strangers. My mother is lying at the point of death. I am innocent and cannot understand why everything said about me has been so distorted. All I want Is fair play. "Still, comfort is to be gleamed from my position, for my husband and I love each other more than ever before." EAST SIDE MEN BANQUET Community Success at Recent Rose Show Is Celebrated.

HEAVY YIELD EXPECTED C. L. Smith, of O.-W. R. & X., In vestigates Loss In Gilliam and Sherman and finds Crop Will Be Larger Than Iast Year. C. L. Smith, agriculturalist for the O.-W. R. & N. Company, returned from Eastern Oregon yesterday with the news that damage done the wheat harvest In Gilliam and Sherman coun ties by the storm of last Saturday and Sunday will not be nearly so great as first reports indicated. "A very narrow strip of country was affected by the storm." said Mr. Smith. The damage done by it Is negligible. I think it entirely safe to say that not 1 per cent of the Sherman-Gilliam wheat crop was injured. Even had all the wheat In the district covered by the storm been ruined, the damage would have cut small figure, so far as the whole wheat crop in these counties is concerned. "I was at Ollx. In Gilliam County, one of the spots where the storm was at its worst, on Sunday. There was a very hard wind and a driving rain, but not much hall and the storm was severe only for a short time. "In Sherman County, where most of the damage was done, the Injury In flicted lias been much exaggerated. "The wheat crop in these two coun ties from all indications will be about a third larger than it was last year. On Sunday 1 viRlted six large ranches on the Olix Ridge. In each of them from 160 to 300 acres had already been harvested and threshed and the yield was running Just about a third greater than In 113. The wheat Is of high quality, too. "Better farming methods and more acreage In cultivation are two of the Important factors that have combined to increase the yield generally from 25 to 40 per cent. "There is some smut In the foothills of the Blue Mountains, but not enough materially to injure the crop. There is nearly always some amut in this lo cality, due. to the moisture, but this year it Is rather more prevalent than usual, due, no doubt, to the rainy weather at IOOU time last ran. "A. greatly Increased acreage hss been act out to corn this year. Th good results of the missionary work done for several years past by UK O.-W. RAN. Company In educating the farmers to the value of com crop are more than ever apparent." C. D. HURLBERT NOT LOST Wire of Banker IK-nle Krpon !! Ha. B n Mining A report that Carroll D.
