20 TIIE MORNING OKKGONIAX, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER II, 101- INFLUENZA BM TO BE OFF State Health Officer Seeley to Remove Restrictions. CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN People Crged to Continue Precau tions in Order That Epidemic May Soon Be at End. The Influenza ban is off Saturday. The last vestige of doubt as to when the closing order would be lifted was removed yesterday, when State Health Officer Seeley gave his official O. K. to the action taken by Mayor Baker early in the week. Stor, theaters, streetcars, churches, football games, lodgeo, schools, eleva tors and all other institutions affected by the original closing order and those that followed are to be released from all restrictions. "But," says the State Health Officer, "do not let this removal of the ban also remove all precautions against the influenza. If people will be sensible about the lifting of the order and take care of themselves for a little while, we may rid ourselves of the' epidemic otherwise it may be with us all Winter in more or less malignant form." Precautions Should Be Kept I' P. Influenza patients are requested to take extra good care of themselves and doctors are asked to isolate all cases and keep up any other possible precau tions against the spread of the disease, in appeals issued by city and state health officials. Here are some of the restrictions which will be" removed by the order of the Mayor and approval of the health officials: Closing of all stores except groceries and drugstores at 3:30 P. M. Closing of all offices and office build ings at 4 P. M. Prohibition of all theaters, schools, churches, lodges and other public gath erings. Crowding in streetcars, elevators and at bargain counters. Partial closing of poolroom's. Total Cases in State 17,924. The ban has been on in Portland since October 11, although the early closing order was not issued until No vember 3. During the epidemic 6252 cases and 455 deaths have been reported in Portland, while out in the state 11, 672 cases and 177 deaths are recorded. "A graph of the cases and deaths, both in the city and in the state, shows a rapidly-descending curve," said Dr. Seeley. "From reports of other cities we know that the epidemic .subsides much more quickly than it gains momen tum, so we may expect practically a clean sheet all over the state in about another week. Of course, there will be scattering cases all Winter, but with proper care and isolation there should not be another general epidemic." Officials Believe Worst Past. Yesterday's report of cases in the city was only 190 the lowest number for more than a week. This, with gen erally improved reports from doctors and others, has led health officials to believe that the worst is passed. The 310 cases reported Tuesday are as cribed to peace demonstrations and more general reporting of anything re cembling influenza. Only another and more serious report in the next two day3 would induce him to rescind his action, says Dr. Seeley. Deaths reported yesterday follow: Margaret Boss, 48, nurse. 628 East Stark street; Edward Tenfjord, 30, seaman. Seat tie: John Anderson, 42, laborer, Silverton; John Puyleart, 32, planer.

Stater, from him. They were mar ried at Walla Walla. Wash., August 2S, 1917. Stater charges in a divorce complaint filed yesterday that, al though he provided a comfortable home at Stanfield, Or., and presented his wife with an automobile and other gifts, she persisted in leaving home and going either to Portland or Pen dleton, where she lived at hotels, as suming the name of "Miss Mary Brown." Finally, she refused to live anywhere except in a hotel, alleges Stater, and told him that she preferred to have him live elsewhere. Cruelty or desertion are the grounds alleged in five other divorce suits filed yesterday, as follows: Nellie Amis vs. W. H. Amis, married at Walla Walla, Wash., September 1, 1917; Anablle La Conta vs. Domtnico LaConta, married at Portland. August 10, 1918; Ray mond A.

If any Multnomah County citizen should chance to come upon the offl- ial statement of the recent general lection returns for Precinct 103, in the Sellwood district, he will confer a favor on County Clerk Beveridge if he will immediately deliver the same at the Courthouse. The official returns for this precinct have not been returned to tne County Clerks office, neither are they to be found anywhere. As a result, the task of compiling the official count in this ounty has been seriously retarded. If the missing returns from the Sellwood precinct are not found, it wilt be neces sary to reconvene the election board of that precinct, open the ballot box and count the ballots. Responsibility for the failure to make the proper returns from this pro- inct apparently rests with the night board, of which J. F. Ivertchem was chairman. Summoned to the County Clerk's office yesterday, Mr. Kertchem said that as soon as the count was completed on the morning following the election he left the voting precinct, leaving to other members of the board the matter of delivering the ballots to the Courthouse. All that ever reached the Courthouse was the poll book containing the names of the registered electors of the precinct, and the sealed ballot box with the ballots actually cast in the election. The statement showing the official count of the precinct was not ncluded, neither was the duplicate of the statement posted at the polling place as required by law.

IN TELEPHONE FRANCHISE REVOCATION IS URGED Steps to Fight Proposed In crease of Rates Likely. COMPANY PLOT SUSPECTED Half-Breed Cherokee Indian Is De clared Past Master In Art of Whirlwind Courtship. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 13. (Special.) Arthur Williams, formerly of San Francisco, a half-breed Cherokee In dian, a mechanic with the social graces of a bank president, who is alleged to have led two women to the altar with out the formality of divorce, and whom the police say may have more wives, was arrested in Sacramento 2ast night. charged with forgery. Williams is alleged to be a past mas ter at whirlwind courtship. As an evi dence of this, Harry Lubbock, of the Burns Detective Agency, which caused the arrest of Williams, recites that he married one woman in Oakland last March, deserted her September -. and nine days later was married to an other in Portland, all the while keep ing up a correspondence with another girl in Baltimore who was booked to be wife No. 3. the detectives say. Mrs. Amelia Moss Williams, of 133 Lake street, Oakland, employed at a downtown candy shop, is wife No. 1. She was married to Williams in Sacra mento last March. They came to live in San Francisco at 871 Tprk street. Williams in a short while became restless and disappeared, taking his wife's savings, amounting to $300. it is charged. September 11 Williams married Miss Helen Baughman, of Portland, daugh ter of wealthy residents of that city, after a. courtship of a few days, and without the knowledge of the girl's parents. He brought his new wife to Oakland and they were guests at the Hotel Adams. It is alleged that while there he forged his wife's name to checks ag gregating more than $1000, drawn on a Portland bank, and disappeared. Will iams admitted the two marriages. He will be taken to Portland to face the forgery charges. Commissioner Blgelow Hears Poor Service Is Intentional to Aid in Making Out Case. Revocation ot the franchise under which the Pacific Telephone & Tele graph Company operates is one of the possible courses of action in the tele phone controversy, which will be sug gested by City Attorney La Roche in a report to the city commissioners today. Other legal steps which may be used t combat the company in its proposed increase in rates, which takes effect today, will be suggested in the report. Comments of commissioners on the higher schedule were caustic yester day. Every commissioner expressed himself in favor of repealing the fran- hise if other action did not bring about results. It will take a year or more to re voke the franchise," declared Mr. La Roche, but even this did not deter the commissioners in threats to proceed against the telephone company. Courts 9Iay Decide. Among methods suggested for re lating the increase was to fight the action in court upon refusal of a telephone-user to pay the higher rate. It is believed that the fight will be car- led to the courts very soon if the com pany persists in levying the new schedule. "The company has stated that this ncrease was made solely in its private capacity and not because of the Gov ernment control feature," declared Mr. La Roche. "This puts the Increase sole ly on a question of service and costs. The quickest way to get action is an Immediate court action." Hearing la Advocated. Commissioner Bigelow was strong for a hearing before the council on the present telephone service. He said he had heard on good authority that the company purposely was furnishing poor service so that it would have a better case when it came to raising rates. He asked that employes of the company be summoned to tell what they knew of such instructions. Following Mr. La Roche's report to day, the council will determine what mode of procedure will be followed in protesting the increase. PROFIT I'OIi COMPANY SEEN Commissioner Corey Talks as to Tel ephone Installation Charges. H. A. Corey, Oregon Public Service Commissioner, believes that the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Company will receive sufficient increased revenue rom the charge which has been fixed for installing telephones on new orders for service to meet the higher wage scale for operators, with a balance besides. It may not be generally known to the users of telephones that from 25 to 40 per cent of the number of instru ments in use are discontinued each year and the number replaced by new orders under the practices of the telephone company's regulation will mean a very substantial increase in telephone rates. f the citizen ordering a telephone in stalled is obliged to pay J 5, J10 or $15 to get the service installed, that is cer tainly equivalent to an increase of Just that amount in the telephone rate for the first year of service. It would not be in the least surprising if the income derived from this source in Oregon, on the announced rates, would amount to J200.000 the first year it is in effect. That increase in earnings would be ol material importance in enabling the company to pay the higher scale of wages proposed for operators."

Need for the instant response of loyal Americans to the war work drive was voiced yesterday Dy rtepresenta- tive McArthar, who discussed the prob abilities of the future with reference to welfare work for our troops. "Although the actual hostilities are apparently over," said Representative McArthur, "the Nation's responsibility for the welfare of its soldiers 4s by no means over. In fact, the critical time the welfare work is ahead of us. The soldiers in the foreign service, as well as those in the camps and can tonments at home, must be provided with amusements, with healthful in fluences and athletic training and with moral surroundings until they are mustered out of the service. "It seems to me there that this 1 no time to slacken in our campaign for Tunds to carry on the important wel f.2.re work, and I sincerely trust that Portland and Oregon will do their full duty as they have in the past in all war activities."

WORK FAR-REAC1T IXG Millions of Dollars Spent in Provid ing Comforts for Armies. NEW YORK. Nov. 1J. (Special) The National War Work Council of the Y M. C. A. Issued today a financial statement audited by Price. Water house & Company, covering its opera tions from the beginning of the war to July 31, 1918. The statement was Issued by George W. Perkins, chairman of the finance committee, and shows that he Y. M. C. A. has handled dur ing the period $54,354,034.04, of which more than $400,000 represents Interest earned on the contributions given to it. July 31 is the latest date for which figures could be made available from the Paris headquarters, and the opera tions on this side are given as of the same date for the sake of presenting a complete and uniform picture. On that date the Y. it- C. A. had still on hand balance In excess of $17,000,000. In the Intervening period the demands of he work overseas have grown by leaps and bounds because of the vastly accelerated movement of troops, so hat the balance on hand at that date as now been entirely spent and has een succeeded by a deficit- In this intervening period Y. M C. A. men and women workers nave Deen sent abroad at the rate of very nearly 000 a month, and the number of build ings, restaurants, hotels, huts, tents. tc, operated for the A. E. F. In France has increased from 895 to 1500. On July 31 the expenditures for work in this country were still in excess of he expenditures for work overseaa This situation has now been reversed. Expenditures overseas-have grown, not merely because of the growth of the Army, but because every operation in France costs far. more than a similar operation on this side, due to the fact hat the men are' not gathered there into great cantonments, but are bil leted in hundreds of villages and are constantly moving about Up to July 31 approximately 9500 uniforms had been furnished to work ers in the United States and 7223 uni forms to the 3611 secretaries sent over seas. Many of these workers are bear ing all of their own expenses, but the majority receive an expense allowance rom the Y. M. C. A. which covers the bare necessities. In the case of unmar ried workers, and gives to married workers approximately the allowance of a lieutenant in the Army. The statement gives some idea of the scope and magnitude of tne work un dertaken by the Y. MCA. for the soldiers. The association is now one of the largest operators of hotels and restaurants in the world; it Is the largest single exhibitor of motion pic- ures; it has the services of approxi mately 100 actresses and actors in Its huts in France, and has sent abroad the largest consignments of athletic goods ever placed in the history of or ganized sport. One single order was placed recently for more than $50,000 worth of athletic equipment. In the period of demobilization the educational work of the "Y" is counted upon by the military authorities as i factor of vital importance. In prep aration for this the Y has recently placed an order for more than $2,000,- 000 worth of textbooks for France. K S 1 w J I 'in J.i'fTI" .'V Lieutenant Cellars Convalescing. Lieutenant James H.
