IRE OF POLICE IS AROUSED Desk Officer Builds Coop, but Hopes of Taking Home Bag of Eggs Go to Naught Third of Trio " Gets 60 Days, Too. "There's nothing in the chicken busi ness," say the police. When 13 squawking, kicking chick ens were brought into the station yes terday morning, Desk Officer Cason de veloped the same inspiration that over takes scores of other city folk who hope to appreciate large returns by re production. He had. visions of taking home a bag of eggs last night Cason only lost 25 cents spent for feed, a pair of spoiled blue uniform trousers worth $7 and the time and trouble of building a chicken coop in the basement of the station and clean ing the coop yesterday. And there wasn't even an egg when Officer Cason received the order to de liver the chickens the Clerk of Court had written the word "fouls" in parenthesis, that there be no mistake in the release of the birds to the owners, Mr. and Mrs. James Riley, 747 East Eighth street. . City Detective Tackabery lost a suit of clothes and an overcoat, torn to shreds, in chasing one of the burglars through the railroad yards. The detectives' suspicions were aroused at 8 o'clock Thursday night by the furtive glances sent by a nervous pair with a heavy bag at a uniformed officer walking his beat, so they ar rested them at the corner of Third and Glisan, While Mr. Hellyer telephoned, the pair broke and ran. George Wieder kellar was caught by Tackabery in the terminal yards after playing follow the leader with the detective In and about boxcars for a quarter of an hour, during which seven pistol shots augmented his speed. The other, Henry Carberry. was caught by Hellyer under the Morrison-street bridge. A third, James Allen, rooming with the two burglars at Union avenue and East Oak street and in whose room was found large quantities "of drugs and equipment for dope fiends, was ar rested with them. All three were sent to jail for 60 days. SLOVER LOSES APPEAL MAYOR UPHELD I.V DISCHARGE OF EX-CAPTAIN OF POLICE. Emstersi Jeweler Tells of Getting Sev eral Iavttatloas Which, He Says, Were Appreciated. People "back East" are beginning to feel the effects of Oregon's recent Letter-Writing week, and, fudging from the replies now drifting back to Port land, it is probable that Oregon will get some substantial returns on its activities next Summer. Illustrative of the thoroughness wits, which the Oregon people did their letter-writing work is the following com ment received yesterday by L Axonson. of Portland, from a prominent watch manufacturer of Chicago, to whom. among others, he had written: "A few days ago I received your letter, and after reading it over I said to myself. That is mighty nice of my friend Aronson to think of me,' and I want to assure you that I appreciate your kind invitation. "But a day or two alter your letter is received along came another very kind invitation from another party. The very next mall another letter came, and they have been coming right along, so I cannot help but feel that you Ore gon people are putting up a Job on the Eastern people, and I must say It is a very good idea." Following is a sample of some replies received by Charles F. Berg, of this city: "Tour description or Oregon and Its many interesting points makes me feel that I would certainly like to take a trip through your state. The first time an opportunity offers I will certainly avail myself of It" I. W. W. SPEAKER BILLED James P. Thompson to Be Heard at Civic League Luncheon. James P.

W. movement at the civic center in San Francisco. He Is the author of the preamble to the L W. W. constitution and organizer of the strike of textile workers at Law rence, Mass.

Qaestioa Decided by Judge Morrow Grants Chief Executive Rights of a Commissioner Mayor Albee acted within his rights in his peremptory removal of former Police Captain E. A. Slover on Decern ber 11, 1913. in the opinion of Circuit Judge Morrow, 'who yesterday sus tained the motion of City Attorney La Roche to quash the writ of review de manded by Slover. The case had been pending in the Circuit Court since early in 1914, and the final argument was heard last Fall. Judge Morrow has had the case under advisement since. The Mayor is a Commissioner of the department of which he has charge, and has the same power to dismiss men in the department under him as are grant ed other Commissioners by the charter, contended the judge. Slover adherents maintained that the Mayor is not Commissioner, though head of the Public Safety Department, and that he does not possess the power granted a Commissioner to remove any man un der him. In dismissing Slover, Mayor Albee charged that he had slept while pre sumably on duty and that he used his position to "play politics." HOPS TO FILL 100 CARS North Bank Gets Big Order Freight to East. for What is regarded as one of the big gest contracts for freight traffic closed here for quite a while is the order re cently secured by the North Bank Rail road to move approximately 10.000 bales of hops from various points in the Willamette Valley to the Atlantic seaboard. The hops recently were purchased from growers' representatives and warehouse men by Louis Lachmund, of Salem, for London brokers and brewers. The shipment will require about 100 cars. Loading will be started in Sa lem and vicinity within the next few days. It is proposed to assemble the cars in Portland as rapidly as possible and start them eastward promptly. It is probable that the movement will be made up in tralnload lots when it reaches Spokane. East of Spokane the business will be divided between the Great Northern and Northern Pacific roads, which will haul it to St Paul whence it will be distributed over various routes.

JOHNS URGES ACTION Purchase of Water Plant to Reduce ' Rates Is Asked. A petition ten feet in length was pre sented to the City Council yesterday by residnts of St. Johns, urging the City Council to take steps to buy the plant of the St. Johns Water Company. The residents say the present water rates are higher than Portland rates In general and they want the plant taken over at once. Commissioner Daly wants the city to build a new system in the district. This. City Attorney LaRoche says, will involve litigation. The petition asks that tbe case be kept out of the courts because the excess water charges in the interim would amount to many times the 19550 difference between the city and the company figures. REALTY MEN PLEDGE FUND Assistance Promised for Eastern Exhibit of Berger-Jones Pictures. Members of the Portland Realty Board subscribed between $300 and 400 to the fund to finance the Eastern tour of the Berger-Jones color pictures of Oregon scenery yesterday, at their luncheon at tbe Chamber of Commerce.

Commissioners Agree to Provide Service in Schools. The County Commissioners have fi- nally consented to allow school chil- dren of this second district free dental service. When the question first arose as to whether the county should pay lor dental work on school children, it was decided that the county should be at no ex pense for such work. Mr. Alderman brought several of the youngsters, whose teeth .needed repairs, before the Commissioners, and they changed their minds. County physicians have made ar rangements with Dr. Miller, head of the North Pacific College of Dentistry and Pharmacy, for treatment of children there, and the county will pay actual cost of materials used in the dental work.
