3 RECALL LEADERS
LIKELY TO TESTIFY
District Attorney to Ask Allen,
Holt and Gibson to Go Be
4 fore Grand Jury.
KEEN INQUIRY INTENDED
SJayor, Two Commissioners and City
Auditor to Be Snbpenaed In
' Search for Evidence of .For
gery on Various Petitions.
Opportunity will be riven this week
by District Attorney Evans to A. C.
Allen, C W. Holt and M. E. Gibson,
members of the recall committee, who
arranged the preliminaries of the re
cent city recall election, to appear bo
fore the grand jury and tell what they
know about the alleged forgeries and
inaccuracies in the petitions filed with
City Auditor Barbur.
Subpenas will issue for the appear
ance of Mayor Albee, Commissioners
Hrewster and Dieck and City Auditor
Harbur before the grand jury, to give
any evidence they may have on the
(subject. Mr. Evans is resolved to in
vestigate thoroughly and find just
what violations of the law have been
committed and the grand jury will be
Kiven every opportunity to make a.
Btrict inquiry.
City Attonrey May Testify.
City Attorney La Roc he also will be
(summoned before the inquisitorial body.
It is expected, as he was the first to
have his attention called to the alleged
irregularities, and promptly took the
case to District Attorney Evans for
such action as the facts determined
may warrant.
It is expected that the grand Jury
will make a report on this subject Sat
urday. From facts so far determined.
It is believed that forgeries on the pe
titions are not sufficiently extensive to
have nullified the recall election, had
the recall candidates succeeded. Peti
tions filed to bring about the election
contained 9800 names. This was 1500
more than the number required by law.
So far, less than 100 names have been
found which are believed to have been
forgeries or otherwise irregular. Eight
petitions, with a total of 320 names,
were submitted to District Attorney
Evans for investigation. Some of these
are glaring forgeries, it is declared.
Handwriting; Is Similar.
All the names on one paga of one pe
tition are evidently in the handwriting
of two persons. The names at the top
of the list were, it is thought, written
by one man, and names in the middle
by another. Those at the bottom of
the list are believed to have been
feigned by the same person who wrote
the list at the top.
It is assumed that a dishonest circu
lator fabricated this list, using a city
directory or other reference. Some
names signed are of actual residents,
while others are, so far as can be
learned, entirely fictitious.
Singular similarity appears in the
handwriting at the top and bottom of
the page and the same hand, apparent
ly, wrote the names in the middle. Cap
ital J is made in the same way in one
list and capital D is also identical In
form in the others. Various common
characteristics appear in other places
in the two lists in which the alleged
forgery is most flagrant.
1TRAUD KXOnXEDGE DENIED
Kecall Committee Says Insinuation
Against It Is Absurd.
Denial of the charges that the com
, mittee behind the recent Albee-Dieck-Brewster
recall election had knowldge
of the fact that many forgeries anc
fictitious names were on the petitions
filed by the committee, is made in a
statement Issued by the committee yes
terday. The statement is signed by
M. E. Gibson, A. C. Allen and C. W.
Hohlt. In part it reads:
"Insinuations in the Interview of Mr.
La Roche and Mr. Albee that if there
were any forgeries in the recall pe
titions that the recall committee had
knowledge of the same is an absurdity.
In the first place the recall petitions
have attached to them an affidavit re
quired to be made by the circulator,
which sets forth that the names of the
persons whose names appear thareon
were signed in the presence of the
circulator; that their residence address
Is given and that each was a legal
voter. To an ordinary mortal this affi
davit would be sufficient and there
would be no occasion for suspicion.
"There has never been a petition yet
Investigated wherein the question of
'forgery has not been raised. In the
recent registration there was a charge
made that illegal voters were being
registered and that imaginary names
and addresses were given. Investiga
tion proved that many of the supposed
fake registrations were legitimate.
Take the case of the 3000 voters' pam
phlets, which the Secretary of State
said were sent -to registered voters in
Portland and which were returned. This
gave rise to the suspicion that there
had been wholesale forgeries and fake
registrations. Deputy Sheriffs watched
the precincts where these sunnosed
fakes were to vote and there was not
one arrest. Men who were listed as
legal voters readily proved their right.
Some one had jumped at conclusions.
"Mr. Albee has said that he did not
know why the leaders of the recall
movement should be whitewashed.
There is nobody in the recall move
ment who needs or is desirous of being
whitewashed, as all have done nothing
that was not in accord with the law."
7.5 MILL LEVY IS VOTED
C1TV COMMISSION FEARED FINAN
CIAL! DEFICIENCY.
Budget Cot to Bone and After Talk
With Saloonmen Mr. Daly Votes
1 With Majority on Council.
Believing that the city would be In
danger of a financial deficiency next
year if the tax levy were cut beyond
the point of 7.5 mills, the majority of
the members of the City Commission
yesterday voted for the establishing of
the 7.5 mill levy. A motion made by
Commissioner Bigelow to cut it to 7.4
ml.ls was lost, the vote being Bigelow
and Brewster for and Albee. Dieck and
Daly against.
Commissioner Daly, who had been
expected to take sides with Commis
sioner Bigelow for an arbitrary cut in
the levy, declared when the issue was
brought up, that such action might put
the city up against a financial defi
ciency next year. He said the budget
of proposed expenditures for 1915 has
been cut to the bone in every depart
ment, and a levy of 7.5 mills contem
plates the receipt by the city of a great
deal of revenue from saloon licenses
which may not be received.
"T r--e looked into the saloon ques-

BY GRAND JURY.
tion," said Commissioner Daly, "and I
believe we have overestimated the
amount of revenue the city will get. I
Xalked with 11 saloon men, and seven
of them announced they would retire
from business at the end of this year.
I believe that in July of next year there
will be- no more than 200 saloons In
Portland. There are now 385. At the
rate of $800 a year for each of these
saloons going out of business, it can
be seen that we will lose a great deal
of revenue. We have made no provi
sion for this.
"It means that a levy of 7.5 mills will
run the city government well if the
saloon revenue is up to standard. The
dropping off of this revenue means that
we will have to cut in expenses Just
that much. I believe that 7.5 mills is
a reasonable levy under the conditions,
and I do not believe we can take a
chance on cutting it down to 7.4 mills.
The difference between 7.5 mills and
7.4 mills is about $30,000."
The levy of 7.5 mills wa8 adopted,
and an ordinance providing such a levy
was passed to third reading. Another
ordinance adopting the budget was
passed to third reading.
LEAGUE OPPOSES AWARD
LOWEST BIDDER SHOULD GET CON.
TRACT, IS PROTEST.
Poaslble Elimination of Montana Com
pany en Technicality Brings Non
partisan Action.
Protesting against the movement on
foot-to have the School Board award
the contract for the construction of the
new $160,000 Shattuck School building,
the Non-Partisan League, by its man
ager, George C. Mason, has addressed
an open letter to the members of the
School Board requesting that the work
be given to the firm of Olson & John
son, of Missoula, - Mont.
The bid of the Montana firm was
till, 485 for the general contract, while
the next lowest bid, $116,975, was sub
mltted by the firm of Boyajohn-Arnold,
of Portland. Seven Portland firms and
one Seattle firm figured on the work.
Soon after the bids were opened the
Chamber of Commerce sent a letter to
the School Board urging that local
firms be given preference- in awarding
the contract, and it is understood that
other pressure has been brought to bear
toward that end. For the reason that
the Montana firm neglected to enter
alternate proposals, as it is required to
do, it is understood that their bid may
be thrown out on that technicality.
It is unfair to advertise for bids and
permit a contractor from out of the
city to go to the expense of. making
an estimate and' submitting a bid and
then throw his bid out for no other rea
son than that he does not live in Port
land," runs the letter from the Non
partisan League.
"In the second place, we object to
having an additional amount of $(490
added to the cost of this building. That
Is the reason we wish to have the con
tract awarded to the low bidder, re
gardless of any technical Irregularity
that does not affect the result."
SCHOOL ARGUMENTS CITED
Franklin Must Accommodate BOO
Pupils Next Tear, Says El well.
The Franklin High School, in ths
South Kast Side, has at present 252
students, the main portion being quar
tered at the Creston schoolhouse, said
C. A. Elwell in his address at the mass
meeting Tuesday night. Mr. Elwell
said that in February 181 pupils will
graduate from the schools in the South
East Side and 160 next June, making
a total of 841 graduates from the
schools directly tributary to the Frank
lin High School.
Mr. Elwell said that there will be
fully 500 students in the Franklin High
School next year who must be provided
for. Mr. Elwell made this statement
to show that the High School is needed
in the South East Side. .
POLLING TENT FILLS NEED
City Election Supply to House
Workers at Wood Camps.
Tents which were used by the city
and county up to a year ago for elec
tion polling places are to be used now
for shelters for the unemployed at
wood-cutting camps. The City Coun
cil yesterday authorized Municipal Pur
chasing Agent Wood to get the city's
share of the tents at once.
It is proposed to erect them at Bea
verton and Oswego, where the city
proposes to open camps for wood-cutting.
The Council passed an ordinance
yesterday authorizing Mayor Albee and
Commissioner Brewster to arrange a
contract for the cutting of the wood.

Alleged failure by the lighthouse serv

BARK CARRIES PASSENGERS
Restful Voyage to Hawailums Draws
Lovers of Rest and Sea.
Portianders having friends among
the marine fraternity at San Francisco
are in receipt of an Interesting story
of the departure from tho Golden Gate
Sunday of the American bark R. P.
Rithet, of the Matson fleet, with a
dozen passengers for Honolulu. The
trip to Diamond Head or to the Ha
waiian city proper, will require about
20 days, and the news recalls tjvo fea
tures, first that while passenger
steamers are old, many cling to the
facilities of former days, when Ameri
can clipper ships carried passengers
as regularly aa they did cargo on cer
tain voyages; and, second, that the
modern passenger liner, with its round
of formal affairs, wireless that brings
everyday business life aboard ship, and
other up-to-the-miuute things, has no
attraction on long voyages for those
seeking rest at sea, which is often pre
ferred to a quiet visit to watering
places and other beauty spots ashore.
Unlike the general run of sailing ves
sels, the Rithet has commodious and
comfortable quarters aft. fitted, so far
as facilities aboard a windjammer per
mit, with a view to filling the demands
of first-class travelers. She carries
general cargo for the Islands, and will
load back with sugar, pineapples and
other products of the Hawailans. The
vessel Is distinctive in that she Is a
relic of the" old sugar fleet and the
only windjammer plying from the Gol
den Gate on which passengers are
booked.
QUITO IS OX PUGET SOUND
Portland to Lead in Wheat for Sea
son on Pacific Coast.
With the arrival of the British steam,
er Quito on Puget Sound early yes
terday, fears are at rest as to the safe
ty of the vessel, which was somewhat
tardy on a voyage from the West Coast.
The vessel is under charter to Kerr,
Gif ford & Co., and was slated originally
to load wheat here for the United
Kingdom, but made for the Northern
port instead.
Considering the limited dock space
for the storage and loading of grain,
Portland is dispatching her share of
steam tonnage to the European war
zone with cereals, and It is not ques
tioned that the city easily will lead on
the Pacifio Coast in the amount of
wheat exported during the 1914-15
season. Withiu a week there will be
a cleanup of tonnage in the harbor, and
that probably will end the grain ex
portation for November, with a large
amount of tonnage in sight for Decem
ber and January.
LINER TO SAVE TIME
Panaman Likely to Gain Four
Days by Leaving Today.
I0WAN THAT LONG AHEAD
Captain Kane Would Overtake Fel
low CraTt at Seattle to 3Iake Up
Schedule Canal Made From
New York in 17, Days.
Captain . Kane, who will tret under
way this' afternoon from Portland with
the American-Hawaiian liner Panaman
for Seattle, feels certain that he will
overhaul, the liner Iowan before she
can get away from the Puget Sound
city and thereby make up four days,
as the Iowan was away from New York
that much ahead of the Panaman. The
Iowan left here Tuesday evening, and
two hours before she hauled into the
stream from Albers dock the Panaman
was at anchor off the berth.
As tho Panaman is only 13 months
old and made the run from New York
to San Pedro via the canal In 17 days
her skipper entertains no doubt but
that when he reaches the end of the
run westbound he will have proven
again that the Iowan is not in the same
class for speed. The Panaman brought
an assorted cargo and is loading for
the return principally with hops and
prunes destined for New York.
Henry Dearborn, son of the president
of the American-Hawaiian, reached the
city yesterday .from New York, accom
panied by his bride. They selected the
voyage from New York to Los Angeles
via the canal on the liner Honolulan
for a wedding trip, and continued here
from San Francisco on the Shasta Lim
ited, intending 'to go on to Seattle to
day and return to New York overland.
Mr. Dearborn has been cojinected with
the accounting and operating depart
ment of the line and at Pacific Coast
cities is familiarizing himself with the
manner in which the general business
of the company is handled.
The Panaman is- making 41 p on her
schedule, as she was listed to Bail from
here Saturday. On account of the
Iowan having cleaned up cargo ready
there was no reason to hold the Pan
aman, and she will no doubt make an
other saving in time on Puget Sound.
The liner Nevadan Is scheduled to leave
here November 25. the Isthmian De
cember 1 and the Pennsylvanian De
cember 6. and there will be no break
in the schedule until the departure of
the Oregonlan December 18, when the
ten-day card goes into effect. The
Ohioan follows the Pennsylvanian De
cember 8 and the Washingtonian De
cember 14.
TOW BOTHERS NEW ORLEANS
Hawser Parts for Second Time on
Trip to Golden Gate.
Officers of the flagship Beaver, ar
riving yesterday from California, re
port that the United Statos cruiser
New Orleans was not having an easy
time with a new steel barge she re
sumed towing down the coast after it
nad been floated from the beach on
the north side of the entrance to the
Siletz River, for when the Beaver
passed the naval vessel Tuesday noo.
the hawser made fast to the barge
parted and more maneuvering was re
quired to pick up the tow. The barge
had broken away Friday and went on
the beach, but was floated without
damage. It is to be delivered at Mare
Island from Bremerton.
The Beaver arrived with the small
est list of passengers she has carried
in her history. Travel northbound is
down to the normal Winter volume and
no perceptible improvement is pros-
pective until after the holidays. At the
same time the voyage of the Beaver
was more pleasant than is usually the
case at this season, only a long, lazy
swell being reported with the weather
clear. She had an average cargo.
FREEMAN TO DRYDOCK HERE
Coaster Strikes on Clatsop Spit
Early in Morning.
Arrangements were made yesterday
for the steamer Daisy Freeman, which
went on Clatsop Spit at 1:30 o'clock
yesterday morning, damaging her rud
dor and rudderpost. and probably
springing certain butts so a leak de
veloped, to go on the Port of Portland
drydock at St. Johns. Harry Campion,
superintendent of towage and pilotage
for the Port, dispatched the steamer
Ocklahama from here yesterday to to
the damaged steamer to Portland. The
vessel was bound into the river from
San Francisco.
Astoria reports are that the Freeman
virtually followed the course of the
lost steamer Rochelle, which struck on
Clatsop Spit last month and was
burned. The Freeman backed clear
before the tug Oneonta and lifesaving
crews reached her, and she was towed
to Astoria by the Oneonta. The crew
of 21 are said not to have been in dan
ger, though had the steamer not
worked Into deep water immediately
she might have been severely damaged.
LUMBER POR EAST ACCEPTED
Grace Fleet Resumes Carrying liarge
Lots of Fir Through Canal.
W. R. Grace & Co. will resume the
transportation of lumber from Portland
to the East Coast In quantity with the
departure of the liner Santa Clara In
December, as bookings have been made
for approximately 2,000,000 feet of the
material. The Santa Cruz, due next
week, will have a small amount of
lumber as her space has been engaged
for cargo from Puget Sound and San
Francisco, so tHat heavy lots of lum
ber cannot be accepted from here now.
The vessel will have several hundred
tons of other freight from Portland.
Marine interests are hopeful that aft
er January 1 the offshore lumber trade
will show renewed life, as there is rea
son to expect a heavy demand from the
Atlantic Coast and the stimulus will
bring about a reopening of camps along
the river and increase the output of
sawmills. It was reported from Tat
oosh yesterday that the schooner Wm.
H. Smith, which passed there at 8:30
o'clock in the afternoon, would be or
dered here to load lumber.
WAR TAX IS NOW PAYABLE

BARGE NEARLY DROWNS THREE
Lost Tow of New Orleans Crushes
Boat on Siletz Bay Bar.
TAFT, Or., Nov. 18. (Special.) A
catastrophe nearly resulted here when
the barge which was lost by the New
Orleans while en route to Nicaragua
wa about to be towed outside the
Siletz Bay bar to the New Orleans,
which was in waiting.
While on the bar the tow line again
parted, causing the heavy craft to set
