SLAP JIT PROFITEER E POLICEMAN OUTFIGHTS 12 SAX FRANCISCO PATROLMAN OVERCOMES SERVICE MEN". Conference Tuesday Will Make Suggestions to President. FREE WHEAT MARKET PLAN PORTLAND MAN HAS 29 GAINED POUNDS Army or Such Men, Opines Chief, Would Have Put Teutons Out of War With Speed. SAX FRANCISCO. Aug. 3. (Special.) Comparative estimates made today by Chief of Police White, following a melee described as a riot at Mason and Taylor streets, in the so-called fashionable tenderloin, in which a dozen service men were vanquished by Policeman James McEachern, led to the conclusion that with an army of McEacherns, Uncle Sam could have made good in the world war with less than one-tenth of the forces that were sent "over there." Two soldiers opened hostilities with Policeman H. T. Lewis, when the latter undertook peace negotiations. Two more soldiers arrived and went into action. Then came other soldiers and sailors until Lewis, assailed by a force of about 15, fell severely beaten. McEachern heard the summons from his stricken comrade and "went over the top." With fists and club he at tacked on all fronts. After a couple of howling. mauling minutes, the marauders made unconditional peace terms. McEachern arrested on charges of inciting riot, 12 soldiers, who de scribed themselves as former service men or continuing in active duty. Lewis was taken to the emergency hos pital to have his wounds treated. St. Ileiens Has Beach Resort. ST. HELENS. Or., Aug. 3. (Special.) St. Helens now tfbasts a regular and up-to-date beach resort.

Government May Pay IOss From Figure Guaranteed; Punishment - for Extortionists Sought. WASHINGTON. Aug. 3. Steps to wards reducing the high cost of living are expected this week. While all government departments are working toward the end of allevi ating unrest by restoring a normal level of prices, interest centers in the meeting Tuesday of the conference called by Attorney-General Palmer to consider the best method of procedure, especially with respect to profiteering. The committee appointed by the con ference has been engaged in an ex change of memoranda which will be put before the conference for recommenda tion to President Wilson. The presence of Julius Barnes, director of the United States grain cor poration, at the meeting Tuesday, will give expert counsel to the cabinet members and other officiris on the- grain situation. A decision to sell wheat a free market, the government ab sorbing the difference between the market price and the guaranteed price, is believed certain. There are indications that the at torney-general is paying especial at tention to cases of profiteering. He has at his disposal a great volume of infor mation collected by the federal trade commission, showing production costs in scores of industries. While there is no law by which profiteering -may be punished directly, Mr. Palmer has said that there is a great deal of "good law" on the statute books and it is believed he will find a way to punish any cases where there are evidences of extortion. The average citizen is the man in whose behalf the profiteering investi gation will be pushed, despite the fact that it was the new demands of the railroad labor unions which precipi tated it.

ELKS' MEET TO BE LIVELY IF OVER 5O00 VISITORS EXPECTED AT KLAMATH FALLS. Foleen Had Been Told an Opera tion Was His Only Hope. 'I have more faith in Tanlac thvin any medicine I have ever seen, and 111 tell you why I say this," said C. J. Foleen, a well-known mechanic who is employed by the Southern Pacific Kail way Co., and who lives at 801 East 20th street. Portland, while talking to a Taniac representative the other day. I suffered from stomach trcu-ble for three years or more continued' Mr. Foleen, and when I commenced tak ing Tanlac I was so weak and run down that I was not able to do any work at all. At one time I was in the hospital for seven weeks, and after the very best of treatment there I was told that nothing but an operation would do me any good, and that I would have to submit to it if I ever expected to be well again. I refused to undergo the operation, and was told then that they could do nothing more for me, so I pulled up and -went home.- Well, after I got home I began to diet myself, thinking that might help me, but I soon found that even milk and mush and a soft-cooked egg would cause gas to form on my stomach, and I would have the worst cramping spells you ever heard of. I just kept on suf fering and getting weaker all the time until I was just about all in. "Then I heard about Tanlac and the great things it was doing for so many other people, and I bought a bottle and commenced taking it. Well, sir, I figured that Tanlac would give me some relief, but I had no idea that it I was going to make such a clean sweep of my troubles and put me in the fine condition X am now in. Why, I have gained twenty-nine pounds and in a short time I was as free from pain and distress as any man on earth. My stomach troubles all disappeared, and my appetite came back in full force, and up to this day I can hardly get enough to eat. Everything I eat agrees with me, too, and when night comes on t can go to bed and sleep like a rock right through until daylight. Now that was ju-st a year ago when Tanlac pulled me out of all that trouble, and I haven't lost a day from my work since, and my health has been just fine ever since." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug Co. Adv. August 24, among the 500,000 shop em ployes of American railroads. Infor mation that the shopmen were not dis posed to accept President Wilson's pro posal to have congress create a spe cial body to pass on their demands and to consider them in connection "with living problems took officials by surprise.
