Garbage; Removal Directed.
Regular collection of garbage in the
Kern park district bounded by Thirty
Bixth and Forty-sixth avenues and
Sixty-fourth and Seventy-second streets
has been directed by City Health
Officer Parrish. who informed the city
council Wednesday that the district is
Insanitary because of improper disposal
of garbage. City Commissioner Bigelow
was directed to authorize a system of
collection by which that section of the
city might be cleaned up and that the
practice of dumping refuse in gravel
pits and shallow trenches be discon
tinued. Frame Shacks Mat Be Condemned.
Condemnation of a number of frame
Tuiidings on the waterfront between
the river and Front street, north of
Madison street, is recommended to the
dock commission by the waterfront
committee, which has filed a report as
to the dangero-s condition of .ie struc
tures. Included in the list are a barrel
factory, barber shop, a stable and a
number of small shacks said to have
outlived their usefulness. A portion of
the building at Front and Main streets
occupied by Barde & Co. also is recom
mended as in line for condemnation.
Knights and Ladies to Picnic. Kirk
patrick council. No. 2227, Knights and
Indies of Security, will hold a reunion
picnic and membership drive at Crystal
Lake park, Sunday, August 10. The
programme will include dancing, base
ball, raoes and games. Applications of
new members will be accepted at the
picnic as the local council is in the
midst of a drive to increase the mem
bership to five thousand. If this can
be accomplished, a strong effort will
be made to bring the next national
convention to Portland.
Hospital, Annex Planned. Prelim
inary sketches for the proposed wing
to the smallpox hospital on Powell val
ley road have been requested by the
city health bureau from the building
cVapartment and now are in course of
preparation. The council has acted
upon the recommendations of Health
Officer Parrish which ask the erection
of a wing to be used for contagious
cases and it is expected that plans will
be completed soon. An addition 40 by
70 feet, it is believed, will relieve pres
ent needs.

MRS. MHO WILL SPEAK
MAYOR GRANTS PERMISSION TO
USE AUDITORIUM.
Labor Council Officers Agree Not to
Permit Any Addresses by
I. W. W.
Mrs. Rena Mooney -will be permitted
to speak in Portland municipal audito
rium Saturday night.
Such was Mayor Baker's decision on
the request of Harry Anderson, presi
dent of the Central Labor council, for
permission to use the building- The
mayor, however, requires that officials
of the labor council guarantee that In
dustrial Workers be prevented from
spreading - their propaganda at the
meeting and that no persons save Mrs.
Mooney and labor officials introducing
her be allowed to speak. These condi
tions have met with the approval of
labor officials, and arrangements for
the mass meeting now are in progress.
Mayor Baker leaves no doubt as to
his opinion of I. W. W. members who
might take advantage of the opportu
nity to spread revolutionary propa
ganda. In his letter to Mr. Anderson Mayor
Baker outlined the conditions as follows:
"The purpose of the meeting will be
to give Mrs. Mooney an opportunity to
tell her story. This comes legitimately
within the purposes of the public au
ditorium. However, it is not with
tne purpose or tne auditorium, nor
within the purpose of this meeting to
allow certain of the I. W. W. agitators,
who undoubtedly will be on hand, to
take advantage of the opportunity to
spread their vicious revolutionary prop
aganda. The auditorium, it must be un
derstood, is absolutely closed to these
people.
"Therefore, the conditions to which
you must agree are that either your
self or Mr. Stack or Mr. Hart wig, as
officers of the Central Labor council or
of the American Federation of Labor,
will introduce the speaker and allow
her to tell her story, after which the
meeting- will close, with no opportunity
being given anyone other than Airs.
Mooney and the labor officials Intro
ducing her to speak."
Replying, E. J. Stack, secretary of
the Central Labor council, notified the
mayor of the council s acquiescence in
the conditions imposed.

ined in a telegram received yesterday

Ir. Eisen was 79 years old. having

Edinburgh university, Scotland, where
he completed his medical course in
1865. The following year he was named
physician of an emigrant ship, which
was wrecked off the coast of New
foundland. Instead of returning home.
he came to the United States, settling
first at Cleveland, where he was a
physician in the naval hospital. Later
he moved to Chicago, where for several
years he served as county physician.
He was there at the time of the Chi
cago fire in 1871.
Ir. Eisen came to the Pacific coast
n 1886, locating first at Tacoma, where
he remained less than a year. He came
to this city in the late fall of that year
and had continued in the active prac
tice of his profession until he suffered
physical breakdown last December.

AUXILIARY J0 HAVE TEA
American Legion Aides Seek New
Members and Funds.
To increase membership and funds of
the organization, the women's auxiliary
of the American Legion will give a sil
ver tea Saturday afternoon. August 16,
at the home of Mrs. H. F. Wheeler, 562
Ladd street. Hostesses for the after
noon will include Mrs. Ward, Mrs.
Sorenson, Mrs. Wyckoff and Miss Mar
garet "Wyckoff.
Every Portland woman who is eligible
to join the auxiliary is invited to at
tend. Memberhip is limited to those
who are wives, sisters, daughters or
mothers of men who served in the
recent world war. As there are now
1000 men in the Portland branch of the
American Legion, it is believed that
fully 3000 women in this city are elig
ible. The aid of the entire 3000 is so
licited by the present members, who
are interesting themselves in the wel
fare of service men who may be in need
of help.
Prosecution, However, Is Not Likely
on Charges for AVhich Restitu
tion Has Been Promised.
C. D. Charles, a promoter who at
tracted much attention in 1915 through
filing a suit for 2,420,000 and in 1916
for filing another action asking 11.655,
000, both against men interested in a
Deschutes river project which failed.
was arrested yesterday by Deputy
Sheriff Christof f erson on a warrant
charging him with obtaining $25 by
false pretenses. But since the com
plaining witness, B. B. Russell of the
American Market, 272 Yamhill street.
seeks dismissal of the complaint De
cause of restitution made, it is not
likely that Charles will be prosecuted.
Two other checks or drafts against
S. Fred Wilson in the Title & Trust
building, are said to have been issued
by Charles but as he has promised to
make them good, charges may not be
preferred.
Though Charles has been arrested
numerous times for obtaining money
by false pretenses, once in 1912, twice
in 1916, and on other occasions, he has
never served time, it is eaid, always
making restitution. His million dollar
suits both were non-suited, and three
other suits for salary, one asking J120,
000, another $60,000 and the third $33.
000 all fell through.
CHILDREN'S MONEY STOLEN

Two bracelets made from $2.50 gold
ieces were included among the loot.

articles were taken. The burglars
gained entrance by "Jimmying" open a
front window.
John Anchor, who has a room at
"Burnside street, reported that a' thief
had taken $40 and a gold watch while
Anchor was absent from his room a few
minutes. Police were looking for a
man who occupied an adioining room.
WELCOME FUND IS NEEDED
Entertainment of 7000 Sailors From
Pacific Feet Is Proposed.
"While some substantial checks have
been received, the response to Port
land's fleet welcome fund is not up to
expectations," said Ben Selling, chair
man of the finance committee, yester
day. Uusiness men who want to assist
in furthering plans for an appropriate
reception upon arrival of the fleet here
are urged to mail their checks to Mr.
Selling at once in order that details of
the programme may be taken up at the
earliest possible moment.
It is estimated that between 7000 and
8000 men will be guests of Portland
during the visit of the fleet. It is the
plan of the committee to give these

CRAWFORD ON WHY HERE
SHERIFF GETS MESSAGE FROM
EASTLAND, TEXAS.
Deputy Carries Extradition Papers
From Oregon to Avoid Trouble
in Returning Alleged Forger.
The first official confirmation of the
news printed in The Oregonian last
Saturday to the effect that W. H. Craw
ford, wanted in Portland to answer to
an indictment charging forgery of a
check for $5000, had dismissed habeas
corpus proceedings in Eastland. Tex.,
and waived extradition, was received
yesterday by Sheriff Hurlburt in a mes
sage from tne sheriff at Eastland, read
ing: "Deputy Sheriff Rector left here
this morning with Crawford."
It is expected that Crawford will not
arrive before the first of the week.
Rector was armed with extradition pa
pers ' secured from Governor Olcott in
record time, in case there was any fight
on hand when he arrived in Kastland.
The crime with which Crawford is
charged is the forging of the name of
S. hL Guild, secretary-treasurer of
Wakefield. Fries Co., to a firm check
which had been signed in blank by D.
W." Wakefield, president of the real es
tate company, ' and filled in to the
amount of $5000. The check was cashed
in Tucson, Ariz., by Crawford, who was
in the employ of the realty concern for
three weeks in an audit of their books
before being taken to Phoenix, Ariz., to
answer to a charge of wife desertion
last April. Three blank checks were
stolen from the firm.
The forgery was not discovered until
more than a month after the check had
been cashed, the slip passing through
the clearing house and defying detec
tion at the United States National bank,
on which it was drawn.
