GRAFT ACCUSATION MADE State Treasurer and Secretary De nounce Attempt of E. M. Laza- rus to Collect on Wing ot fcl. State Hospital. SALEM. Or.. Oct. 15. (Special.) Ed Car M. Lazarus, Portland architect, and members of the State Board of Control clashed in a brief but stormy session of the Board this morninff, when Mr. Lazarus contended, as architect on the eouth wins of the receiving ward at the State Hospital, that he was en titled to more fees. Mr. Lazarus as serted that the expense of this work, "V-hich was done about six years ago, was first computed by him at about J4S.000. but last May he received a statement showing the work actually cost J10.922 more. He asked the Board for the full architect's fees on the dif ference and an addition of more than $400 in interest. "This matter was settled lonpr apro and as a member of the Board I will 1'ave no more to do with it," declared State Treasurer Kay. "I take the same view," asserted Sec retary of State Olcott. "As a matter of common honesty I sve this money coming." said Mr. Lazarus. "'With' your reputation on the Vista House in Multnomah County and on other work you are doing well to come before this Board and try to praft more money on that old contract," shouted Treasurer Kay. "You are just as biu- a crook nsr T am," Mr. Lazarus shot back at the State Treasurer. "This Board's connection -with Mr. Lazarus from the time we first had any business dealings with him has been a continual nightmare," said Sec retary Olcott. "Superintendent Steiner even made the assertion that before he would go through another siege with him he would feel like resigning his position." Secre'tary Goodin, of the Board, sug gested that if Mr. Lazarus had any more money coming on the old contract the only way he could secure it would be through the Legislature. Both State Treasurer Kay and Secretary Olcott declared that they would oppose any such move on the part of Mr. Lazarus. Treasurer Kay and Secretary Olcott walked out of the room as Mr. Lazarus started to impugn the honesty of the Board. The receiving ward was constructed in three units, the south wing being built about six years ago. Archi tect Knighton taking up the work on the main wing. The last wing, now under course of construction, is under the supervision of Mr. Lazarus. "If you had presented this matter to us before we let the contract for the last wing you would never have re ceived that contract, and I am sorry now you ever secured it," said Treas urer Kay.

"When the State Treasurer takes it upon himself to call a man a grafter who is only asking equity and justice, based upon actual facts and figures, he is going rather far," declared Edgar M. Lazarus, architect, last night. He showed a letter to Treasurer Kay in which he demands an apology for be ing called a grafter. "You will prove your statement, apologize or take the consequence," is the parting shot in the letter. Mr. Lazarus explains that a contract was entered into by his firm with the state to construct the south wing of the State Hospital at Salem. This was in 1909. He was to receive 5 per cent of the cost of the structure and equipment as his fee. On September 3, 1912, a final accounting was rendered Mr. Laz arus, the total cost being stated at $48,000. On May 1 of this year, Mr. Lazarus says, after demands for an accounting as to exact costs of the south wing of the hospital building, he was Informed by the bookkeeper of the Oregon State Hospital that the total expenditures for the building amounted to $68,789.84. Of this sum, $9865.93 was said to have been expended for furnishings. Five per cent of the difference be tween $4ji,000 and the final cost of the work amounts to $1506.12. Interest on that sum for five years makes the total of Mr. Lazarus' bill $1906.99. DAVID BRODIE,ALBANY, DIES Native of Scotland, "0, Resident or Oregon 34 Years. ALBANY. Or.. Oct. 15. (Special.)

IDENTITY IN DOUBT Deputy Sheriffs Declare De fendant Switched. ATTORNEY DENIES CHARGE Japanese Who Appears at Trial for Liquor Law Violation Said Not to lie Man Arrested and Jailed. Did Attorney W. W. Banks substitute another Japanese with a Charley Chap lin moustache for the accused defend ant, or were Deputy Sheriffs Ward and Phillips and C. L. Winters, driver of a "for-hire" automobile, mistaken as to the identity of the man who pre sented himself for trial? The attorney declares they were mistaken. The of ficers aver he changed defendants. This unusual situation was presented in District Judge Bell's court yester day when the trial of state against T. Kimura was called. Deputy Sheriff Christopherson told of tracing two cases of whisky from the freight depot to the Model Hotel, of which T. Kimura is the proprietor, at 421 North Sixth street. Deputy Sheriff Ward, the arresting officer, told of taking Ki mura to the County Jail, but declared the man on trial was not the man he arrested, handcuffed and delivered at the Courthouse. C. L. Winters, a public chauffeur, who drove the machine with Ward and his Japanese prisoner to the Courthouse, was positive that the man being tried was not the man Ward had in custody. Deputy Sheriffs Phillips. George Hurlburt and Kendall and Ted Peterson, who was an occupant of the jail at the time Kimura was imprisoned. were all equally positive that the man in the courtroom was not the man actually arrested by Ward. ' Mr. Banks himself was the only wit ness for the defense. The lawyer as sured the court and members of the jury that the man in the courtroom was the real Kimura, the identical man Deputy Sheriff Ward arrested and placed in jail and whose release Banks secured a few hours later on $250 bail. All of the state's witnesses were agreed that Kimura was a short, stocky man, full faced and with a Charlie Chaplin moustache. The man on trial closely answered that description, not excepting the moustache. Deputy Dis trict Attorney Pierce, who conducted the prosecution. Insisted on submitting the evidence in the case to the jury, contending that in case of misdemeanor, the charge against Kimura, it was not essential that the defendant actually be present at the trial. The jury acquitted the defendant. Kimura was one of eight Japanese residents of this city, most of them rooming-house proprietors, who were arrested September 28 in a raid con ducted by the Sheriff's office, when over 600 quarts of whisky, packed and labeled Japanese candy, were seized. T. Miyake, one of those arrested at that time, will be tried next. His case will come before Judge Bell Thursday. JUNIOR RED CROSS NEXT University Extension Division to Or ganize School Children.
