The city council yesterday set Tues
day, February 24, ax the time for 'ft
public hearing on the. proposed .build
ing sone ordinance. The hearing will
be lieid in the council chambers, be
ginning at 10 A M. It is probable, be
uu.se of the large number of persons
-who will desire to be heard on the
subject, that at least a full day wll4
be consumed in the hearing of argu
ments. As finally introduced, the proposed
ordinance contains amendments rec
ommended by Commissioner Barbur
and other members of the city council
and the changes of boundaries granted
on petition of property owners made
at hearings held in the past.
Amendmeats May Be Hade.
Under the proposed amendment to
tha sone ordinance, future amend
ments can be made without any more
procedure than is now used in obtain
ing special permits for public garages, i
apartment houses ana many oiner
kinds of business and Industries.
Should the proposed sone ordinance
pass In its present form, any property
owner desiring a change in classifi
cation of his property In any district
of the city may file application with
the city auditor, stating the nature
of the change desired and the names
and addresses of owners of property
within 200 feet of the property pro
posed to be changed.
The city planning commission must
then make a report after which the
auditor will fix a time Tor hearing
before the city council, not more than
12 days later.
General Plaa Favored.
As far as Individual members' of the
city council are concerned. It is known
that the general plan of xoning Is
favored. Mayor Baker is a particular '
champion of the measure, on the
ground that It affords protection to
the home owner from industries, ana
likewise will serve as a protection to
Industries. Other members of the
council favor the plan, although It is
known several would prefer to see
the entire matter submitted to a vote
ot the people before the ordinance
becomes effective.
Action of the city council, it is
certain, will depend largely on the
r outcome of the public meeting next
Tuesday. The arguments both lor
. and against the proposed legislation
will be permitted to a lull extent, in
stead of limited, as has been the case
when hearings on particular sections
of the city have been held.
Kew Aatomoblle Row Approved.
The establishment of another per-
'manent row along upper Washington
'. street was tentalvely agreed to yes-
terday afternoon by the city coun
ciL as recently requested by a "com
mittee representing the Automobile
Dealers' association. An amendment
to the zone ordinance was approved,
reclassifying both sides of Washing
ton street from 100 feet west of Fif
teenth street to Ella street, as a
district of Class V, which will per
mit repair shops and all the usual
service features run in connection
with hlghclass automobile sales
agencies. A petition was filed with
the city council showing that prac
tically all the property owners on
this part of Washington street ap
proved the change, which will give
. a continuous automobile row from
Fifteenth street to King street.
The committee from the Automo
bile Dealers' association which has
bad the matter up with the city
planning commission and city coun
cil for some weeks, consists of C. L.
Boss, G. W. Dean and F. Vogler, said
that large Improvements would be
made on upper Washington street if
this xoning could be agreed upon,
one concern alone intending to put
$200,000 into a building. Now that
the xoning protection has been prom
ised by the council, it is expected
these improvements will go ahead immediately.

that the waiter is a bit slow.

query: "What style."
"I should worry about the style

rlE dramatic tenseness of the E.
Phillips Oppenheim story, "The
Long Arm of Mannister" has been
wonderfully . retained in Its screen
version showing this week at the
Rivoli theater.
Henry Walthall is its star and
prominent among his cast is Barney
Furey. Mr. Furey is appearing in per
son during the exhibition of the film
in Portland. His. short talks deal
with the possibilities of Portland as
a motion picture production center
and he relates Incidents which oc
curred during the filming of a picture
here recently and in which Mr. Furey
had a loading role.
Sand swept desert vistas with a
man, woman and horse crawling
across its burning stretches is the
scene with which the story opens.
Their exhaustion is evident. Mannis
ter. played by Walthall, arrives at
this moment and then the past his
tory of the three is told.
The story Is that of a Wall-street
genius who Incurs the hatred of five
unscrupulous men who undertake to
get rid of him at all costs. They do
succeed In causing a great sorrow
in his life, but they get no farther.
for Mannister believes in the theory
of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a
tooth" and after discovering his foes
he is on the alert. How he plays the
game, how he fights not only the
five men against him but also a
beautiful woman who is their tool. Is
related in the story.

operato vessels between Atlantic and
Pacific ports via the canal and pro
poses to bring steel and iron products

the situation as follows:

And now the mystery surround
ing the disappearance of Ernest
Descamps, wealthy farmer and for
mer proprietor of a north end estab
lishment, together with the discovery
of portions of a human body in Sul
livan's gulch and Kenton, bids fair
to come to a speedy termination.
Good reason, too, for it became
known yesterday that Portland clair
voyants are working on the case.
In order that these wizards of the
seance and the trance might success
fully work out the problem which
has been baffling, the city detective
bureau for the past two weeks, they
yesterday borrowed some -of the
newspapers In which the mutilated that' Jennie Griovls
remains of the human body- were
found.
If you are a good clairvoyant all
you have to do Is to go Into a trance,
pass your hands mysteriously over
those bloody papers and, presto
change, the dark secrets of the murder
are all an open book to you, accord
ing to the "dope" which was given
out yesterday. You see the missing
head wnere it has been concealed one
place, the hands another, and the
events of the bloody deed pass before
you like a picture In your favorite
movie house.
Of course, no self-respecting clair
voyant would do all this for nothing,
but then the $1000 reward, which has
been posted, is attractive. Clairvoy
ants are also said to have declared
that the notoriety of solving the
mystery, after everyone else had
failed, would be worth more even
than the reward.
City detectives working on the
murder mystery under the leadership
of Lieutenant of Detectives John
Goltz failed to get any clews yes
terday which might lead to a satis
factory solution of the problem.

to have been a brutal murder were

Important in the work of ferreting
out the mystery.
The possibility that Descamps may
have aone to Grand Rapids, Mich., or
to Yakima, Wash., to see women with
whom he was acquainted In those
two ci'.ies was dispelled by wires re
ceived yesterday by Chief of Police
Jenkins.
The wire from Grand Rapids, which
was sent -by A. A. Carroll, declares
woman whom
Descamps knew there, had been in
terviewed and that she said she had
last heard from the missing man when
she received a letter from him two
weeks ago. She said he was at that
time in Portland and -that she had
heard nothing since that date.
Ed Sorgaard, chief of polico of
Yakima, Wash., wired that a . Miss
Nelson there, w'lo was an acquaint
ance of the missing? man, had not -seen
Descamps since the latter part of
last December, when she was In
Portland. She said she knew nothing
of his movements since.
