Dr. Earl V. Morrow Relates
Experience at Sea.
Blazier's Accused of Allowing
Gambling.
THE MORNING OIIEGONIAN, THURSDAY, AUGUST
GUNNER IS GOOD MARKSMAN
Excitement Is Great for Few Mo
ments on Steamer Carrying De
tachment of American Medi
cal Corps to England.
The steamer carrying1 a unit of the
American Medical Co.'ps -which in
cluded Dr. Earl V. Morrow, of this city,
narrowly escaped destruction by a Ger
man submarine. Only the expert
marksmanship of the chief grunner
saved the vessel and perhaps the lives
of many of those on board.
The news comes to Portland in a let
ter from Br. Morrow to his father, Dr.
J. W. Morrow. It is dated "at sea,"
nothing- more specific being permitted.
"Well, dad." writes Dr. Morrow, "the
big thing almost happened. I awakened
this morning feeling very fine and in
the notion that we were about safe
went down, after having: a bath, to
breakfast and then came up to have a
smoke on deck. After going through
the morning exercise with the boys I
had nothing to do, so at 10 o'clock I
was standing on the starboard side,
midway from the middle of the ship to
stern, and was leaning over the rail
looking down In the water watching
for a periscope, when all of a sudden
It came up about 300 yards astern. Just
as I was about to yell 'there it is."
the chief gunner saw :t and let go at
It and knocked the periscope to pieces
and that was the last we saw of the
sub. It was some exoiting few mo
ments and I thought things had come
to their end, but luck and good judg
ment were with us, so we escaped.
Kvery one on board is talking it all
over this evening, for we are now safe
in and will land at our dock about 6
o'clock tomorrow morning, when we
will report to our commanding officer
Jn London."
Dr. J. W. Morrow has also a card
from his son, following the letter, say
ing that he had gone on to Paris and
expected to go to the front at once.
This is Dr. Karl W. Morrow's second
trip to the battlefields, he having been
In the service of the Red Cross in Bel
gium two years ago. At that time he
was decorated with . the order of
Leopold by King Albert,-of Belgium.

MILK PRICES WILL RISE
CHAIRMAN KATZ SAYS DAIRYMEN
CAS'XOT LIVE OTHERWISE.
Organization Is Planned to Improve De
livery and Marketing, bat This It
Is Said, Will Xot Be Enonffb.
Xotwithstandlng- any organization
which may be effected among dairymen,
distributors and wholesalers, milk
prices to the consumer will be advanced
in the near future. Is the opinion of
Alma D. Katz, chairman of a committee
named to investigate conditions and re
port on the formation of an association
to handle the supply in a more method
ical and economical manner.
Prices will rise, he said, simply be
cause the dairyman is paying more than
double the rates for practically every
thing he uses on the ranch and because
of the fact that crop conditions are
poor.
Mr. Katz and his committee, con
sisting of W. K. Newall. H. Thlessen,
J. W. Pomeroy and Whitney L. Boise,
are working on plans to improve de
livery and marketing. Another meeting
will be held within the next two weeks.
"I am interested in the subject as a
citizen and farmer," said Mr. Katz yes
terday, "and, while I have a big herd,
I live in Portland and have to buy
rnilk from someone else. The condi
tions under which the dairymen are
working are ruinous and will lead any
rancher into bankruptcy. They must
be changed so he can make a living, at
least."

FRITZ TO LOSE LICENSE
Various Games Played for Small
Stakes but So Rapidly That To
tal Mounts in Short Time
to Considerable Sum,
Blazier's resort for working-men in
the North End now is under fire for
gambling. -As a result of evidence
taken in the hearing by the Council
on Tuesday against the Fritz resort
in the North End, City Commissioner
Barbur asked that the Blazier place
be investigated also. Mayor Baker
set a hearing for 10 A. M. Tuesday.
The question came up yesterday
when Mayor Daker presented a reso
lution asking the Council to instruct
the city license collector to refuse
renewal of license to the Fritz place
on September 1. This action on the
part of the Mayor was prompted by
the activity of Commissioner Kellaher
in blocking passage of the ordinance
putting the Fritz place out of busi
ness when the Council, except for Mr.
Kellaher, was unanimously in favor
of revocation ofthe license after hav
ing heard the evidence to show that
open gambling has been permitted.
Testimony in the Fritz case indicated
that the same sort of gambling has
been permitted in the Blazier place
In the same district. Commissioner
Barbur, to bring the question to issue,
made a motion that the Blazier - li
cense be revoked if evidence showed
that gambling had been permitted.
The motion was adopted and the hear
ing set.
Mayor Baker's resolution against the
Fritz place was adopted by the Coun
cil and renewal of license will be re
fused. This will put the place out of
business. As the case stood up to
that time. Commissioner Kellaher op
posed action against the place and the
Council could not put it out of busi
ness for 40 days from Tuesday, that
being the time required to put through
an ordinance. This also would have
given the management of the place
time in which to invoke the referen
dum against the Council's action.
Evidence in the Fritz case was to
the effect that the "house" sold 5-cent
checks to patrons and they gambled
lor .these. the loser paid for one
6-cent check for each player In the
game and the winner took all the
checks. The "house" bought the checks
DacK rrora the winner at the rate of
three 6-cent checks for 10 cents.
Mayor- Baker contended that this
was gambling of the worst nature.
While the checks were apparently
small In value, the games were played
so fast that it soon ran up into lnt
of money. Tho game played was poker
ui various types, including stud.
rreeze out' and what is known as
'dynamite stud."
Police Patrolman Hunt was the -prin
cipal witness in the Fritz case. He said
ne nau sat in me games and said the
same game was permitted in Blazier's.
It was on his testimony that Commis
sioner Barbur made the move strains
Blazier's. "The testimony of this one
man is sumcient for me," said Mr.
Carbur.

According to information received by
the Sheriff yesterday, Allen arrived in
Portland late Tuesday night with 72
quart bottles of whisky.
Heretofore the negro porters and
Pullman employes have simply laughed
at the heavy fines which have been
assessed against them. It has been
learned by Sheriff Hurlburt's force
that the money for the payment of all
bootlegging- fines fa sent to Portland
from San ITrancisco.
Allen is a brother of TV. D. Allen,

District Judge Bell said yesterday
that ho would co-operate in every way
possible with the officers and here
after would impose Jail t-entences
against every bootlegger found guilty
in his court. When bootlegging op
erations were flourishing the first of
the year ho began imposing jail terms,
and much or the illegal trade was
stopped. In recent months, however,
nothing but fines have beeu imposed
and bootlegging is on the increase.
