All three gave ball and were released last night. The two girls in the case are Mabel Lourv. 31. and Margaret Baker. 3 7. They were found at 421 East Morrison street. Lieutenant or ve- tf-ctives Pat Moloney said last night that no charges would be placed acainst the girls.. A stroke of good fortune on the part of Detective Bob La Salle started the investigation. He was driving to work from his home at Multnomah yesterday over the TerwiHiger boule vard when he discovered an automo bile which had been wrecked and overturned near the Slavin road More than 40 pairs of shoes had been scattered in all directions. Detective La Salle, taking the num ber of the car, started an Investiga tion. The machine had been rented from the Smith Auto company by Mable Lourv. Later it was learned that,- a dry goods store in Hillsboro had been robbed the preceding night of a large quantity of shoes and clothing. Mabel Loury was said to have ad mitted that she obtained the automo bile and drove to Hillsboro. She denied, however, participating in the . burglary. Other Girl Is Innocent. The other girl proved to be inno ' cent of any connection With burg ' larv. Among the burglaries which Kelly Is said to have been connected with was that of Morton's jewelry store, at Grand avenue and East Morrison, on the night of March 1, when about t&OO in jewelry was taken. The win dow of the store was broken. He may also be connected with the burglaries of the homes of H. A. Rail in 14 V.ast (luk strfeL and A. C. ?Peel. 101 East Sixteenth street, both occurring last Sunday night. A large , quantity of silverware, some money, war savings stamps and clothing was taken from the home of Mr. Ball in. The loot from the Peel residence con sisted chiefly of clothing. Many Robberies on List. The following is a partial list of the burglaries alleged to have cleared up by the arrests: Home, of Janie Thomas. 701 East Taylor street; home . of H. Ballin, 614 East Oak street; home of Dr. West, 419 East Forty- merman, 681 Belmont street; home of J. S. Anudson. 475 Vancouver avenue; home oX W. Commons, 556 East Alder etreet: home of D. Dohn, 585 East Salmon street; home of M. G. Maddox, 792 Belmont street, and a house on Hawthorne avenue whose owner the police have not yet been able to dis cover, and the home of Mrs. Angeline Berry, 600 East Oak street: jewelry etore at 412 East Burnside street; . store at Third and Ankeny streets, and the home of Mrs. John Waggle, 2500 Bridge street, Vancouver, Wash. Loot Worth $1000 Recovered. The arrest of the alleged "fences" who are charged with buying the stolen roods from the burglars is con sidered by the police to be of far more importance than the capture of the ollee-erf tmre-lars. Lieutenant Goltz said last night that the discoveries made so far would result in a sweep ing investigation of the pawnshop dis trict and that more pawn brokers might be involved. ' The alleged stolen goods recovered yesterday have a value of approxi mately 1000 and represent a part of thousands of dollars' worth of loot stolen from homes and stores through out the city. The police said they probably cannot connect the alleged burglars arrested yesterday with some of the recovered goods and intimated that purchases by the alleged "fences" covered a period of many months. Other Suspects Caught. John O'Connor and Fred Gaynor, who were arrested by Detectives Col lins and Coleman in connection with the alleged theft of a quantity of clothing and travelers' checks and other articles from a camp near Sco-J field in Washington county, were taken back to Hillsboro last night by Sheriff George Alexander. Fred Silva and Frank Ward were arrested at Third and Burnside streets by Lieutenant of Detectives Maloney and Kellaher and Patrolmen Harms and Leisy yesterday and are being held for investigation. They had a quantity of keys in their posses sion similar to those used, in picking locks. They will probably be charged with having burglar tools in their possession, it was announced.

Wilson's Late Tendencies Toward Moist Legislation May Steal Thunder. Newspaper Man and Writer First Came Into Prominence Through Articles in The Oregonian. Paul De Laney. author of "The Toll of. the Sands" and other successful stories, and who is a former Portland newspaper man, is in the city visiting old friends for a few days. He is at present and for several years back has been a member of the editorial staff of the Denver (Colo.) Post newspaper. In September,- 1899, Mr. De Laney, who is of Scotch-Irish ancestry, and of an adventurous disposition, was in the desert country of Lake county, Oregon, and found the coi.ditions ideal among pioneer folk who then practically lived amid '"wild west" life, for story writing. In and around Ls Review, Or., Mr. De" Laney found that he and his friends were 175 miles from railroad connections, and that pecplc on the outside knew little about life in Lakeview country with its long stretcnes of sand, extreme heat in summer, sparse population, and possibilities for homes for thou sands of settlers. He embodied these experiences in a series of stories to The Oregonian, and their publication aroused widespread interest. The late Harvey. W. Scott, editor-in-chiet ot The Oregonian, sent word to Mr. De Laney to come to this city. In consequence. The Oregonian en gaged Mr. De Laney to write articles on settlement prosrects for newcom ers, in Harney, Malheur and other neighboring counties of Oregon. Mounted on his trusty bicycle, Mr. De Laney rode over the country to which he was assigned, and soon was famil iar with it, especially around Klam ath Lake. He also wrote articles on the Lake county district for the Port land Telegram. . In 1905 Mr. De Laney left Oregon to work for the Denver Post and re mained with it until the gold excite ment grew around Death Valley and other Nevada points. Once, accompanied by an Indian, he walked through Death Valley when it was 137 in the shade, and evaded the terrific heat by walking only at night. His stories of the new Nevada gold fields were written for and pub lished by a syndicate of American newspapers. Mr. De Laney remained n the Death Valley country for one nd a half years, and then resumed his duties in Denver. Mr. De Laney is here In the inter est of his newest story of the Nevada desert, "The Toll of the Sands," a plendid novel that was reviewed in The Oregonian of February 29. Mr. De Laney says that he is enjoying is first real vacation for a long ime. OREGONIAN NEWS BDREATT, Washington, March 11. Champ Clark is a candidate for the democratic presidential nomination and he is not a candidate. He is not to be active in the race, but will hope for the favor of the San Francisco convention when the delegates from all over have assembled. The reason for his not entering the race actively, after having practically decided to go in, was explained .by one or his friends today as being a tear to attack the Wilson machine. In glancing over the list of delegates so far elected it dawned upon Clark and his advisers that the San Fran cisco convention is going to be in the hands of federal office holders who were appointed by Mr. Wilson. " Mr. Wilson will dominate them. An example of this frameup is seen in Iowa where the delegation is largely made up of federal office holders and includes one official of the democratic national committee. The party machinery in more than two thirds of the states is in the hands of the federal office holders and 'the national convention at San Francisco will look like a conference of postmasters; district attorneys, United States marshals and internal revenue collectors.

Mr. Houston predicted that a bond issue of $2,500,000,000 necessary under certain Plans of adjusted compensa tion now before the committee "might result In disaster," while Mr. Leffing well said "the worst thing possible would be to give bonds to former soldiers, as a great majority of them would cash their holdings immedi ately."

The dinner is open to all friends of Irish freedom. not to be primaries at all within the common definition given to an in stitution by which it was content plated that the people should vote directly upon their choice for the presidency. Primaries Look Like Caucus, The" democratic primaries in most of the states will be nothing more than the old-fashioned caucus where tne voters will merely select dele gates. The delegates will go without instruction to San Francisco to trade about among themselves and be manipulated just as it was in the old days, which it has jeen the custom to refer to as bygone and,, impossible of return in this enlightened period. An example of the method by which tne primaries are being manipulated it is pointed out by progressive dem ocrats, is the MeAdoo letter sent to two or three states giving virtually peremptory orders to state leaders that only uninstructed delegates snouid De named. Mr. McAdoo's letter is regarded as a notice to the people to "lay off" the selection of party candidates and to leave it to their representative at the convention, many of whom will be unknown to the voters or members of the federal machine. With Clark not actively in the race, this leaves but one fighting candi date to oppose the Wilson-McAdoo Palmer triumvirate, which will in the end make one of themselves the nom inee. The one independent candidate. Governor Edwards of New Jersey, It is said, may awaken some morning to discover that his political thunder has been stolen. Edwards Plank Wet. Governor Edwards has but one plank in his platform and that is to make "all of the United States as wet as the Atlantic" . Should Mr. Wilson suddenlv decide to reveal a friendliness toward light wines and beer the New Jersey gover nor would find much of his strength disappearing. It would not be the greatest surprise in the world for Mr. Wilson to do this, because he has shown something more than mild wet tendencies ever since he went to Eu-. rope and mingled with the Bohemian leaders of the old world's moist mon archies. The first evidence of the effect of the association was a message to con gress asking that the wartime ban on wines and beer be lifted. The next was the veto of the prohibition en forcement act, which elected two democratic eovernnrs rtna in Va.v. land and one in New Jersey. The ' next was the appointment as secre tary of the interior of John Barton Payne, who declared that this govern ment could never operate boozeless passenger ships in competition with the foreign vessels carrying large stocks of hard liquors. Colby Last Straw. Then came the selection of Bain bridge Colby, valiant and bitter foe of the 19th amendment, as secretary of state.. Of course, it is pointed out that should Mr. Wilson decide upon this course he will have to run himself or give the nomination to his son-in-law MeAdoo, because Attorney-General Palmer receives the credit gen erally of being a sincere prohibitionist. vestments. Governor Harding of the federal board asserted. Even, under increased taxes. Secre tary Houston said, the proposed ex penditure of $2,000,000,000 "would be a serious one for the people to con front at this time." "The present financial situation is not critical," Mr. Houston commented. "Economy by the people, avoidance of waste in expenditures, economical ap propriations by congress and pru dence In handling these - appropria tions will naturally relieve the situation."

WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY, Salem, Or., March 11. (Special.) Professor Delia Crowder Miller, head of the public speaking department of Wil lamettte university, has tendered .her resignation because of ill health. The resignation was accepted this morn ing, to take effect immediately, and Professor Miller's soni Orvllle Crowder Miller, has been named her successor. The new instructor is a graduate of Boston School of Expression and was head of a similar department at Elon college. North Carolina, before com ing to Willamette to assist in lorensic work. Professor Miller, who is well known in Chautauqua work in Europe and America, has been instrumental in in creasing the popularity of the public speaking work in Willamette, her most notable performance since com ing here having been the direction of the big historical pageant on the university campus last spring.- Schoolroom propaganda against to bacco in all its forms which may ulti mately result in an attempt to legis late smoking and chewing out of ex istence, is now being carried on by the Woman's Christian Temperance union throughout Multnomah county. Although officials of the organiza tion disclaim any attempted movement lowara legal prohibition of tobacco, the parents of many high school pu pils who have been urged to compose essays on the evil influences and ef fects of the weed, are just a bit dubious as to whether or not the agi tation will remain within the walls of the classrooms. Unlike former contests carried on by the Woman's Christian Temper ance union, the tobacco essay compe tition is not confined to the classes in physiology and hygiene, according to Mrs. G. L. Bulan, the organization's superintendent, in charge of the con test. "It is open to all pupils in all high schools and the grading is being done by the English teachers," said she. "The parent-teacher " circles are co operating with our organization in carrying on the work, and both blue ribbons and cash prizes will be award ed to the winners' Superintendent Grout of the Port land public schools was not aware of the widespread scope of the campaign In the schools. "So far as I know It is nothing more than the annual essay contests which the Woman's Christian Temper ance union carries on among the pu pils of the physiology and hygiene classes," he said. "I know of no con test which includes the pupils of all schools." Great Interest Being Manifested. School Directors Thomas and Plum mer were equally in the dark concern ing the nature of the essay contest. They, too, understood that it was nothing more than an affair of these classes of the schools. But every student in every high school in Port land Is eligible to enter, and accord- i ing to Mrs. Buland great interest is being manifested. The contest is being given under the official heading of the "Health Conservation Prize Essay Contest of the Woman's Christian Temperance union," but the four subjects on which high school pupils may write deal solely with the tobacco habit. Here are the four subjects as given out yesterday by Mrs. Buland: "Our Tobacco Bill," "Tobacco and Fire Insurance," "Tobacco and In dustry, Tobacco and Efficiency.' The students are given no other sub ject in this health conservation con test, and one high school youth who was daring enough to ask his teacher if he could write an essay favorable to tobacco ws warned that if he did so ne neea noi expect a gooa rating. The same general contest Is being carried on in the grade schools as well, but in these lower classes, the cigarette evil is the principal essay topic. Mrs. Buland explained that the schools will furnish the blue rib bons for the prize . winners, while the Women's Christian Temperance union will donate the cash prizes. The parent-teacher circles have agreed to arrange entertainments at which the prize essays will be read, and in this way the schoolboy and schoolgirl arguments against the use of tobacco will receive the' widest possible publicity. . Pupils Look Up References. That the contest is having an ef fect on the libraries is indicated in a report bu omit tea to the library board by Miss Mary Frances Isom, librarian. In which it was shown that a special call is being made on the library branches by students who are looking up numerous reference books on tobacco. The Women's Christian Temperance union also has a large quantity of literature against to bacco at its general headquarters. Evanston, 111., where pupils may write for any information they may desire. The state library, under Miss Cor nelia Marvin, is likewise procuring an ample supply of anti-tobacco lit erature which can be obtained by the high school students, recording to Mrs. Buland, and no effort Is being spared in getting every possible fact which might be used as an argument against tobacco In the possession of high school students. However, this contest, although much wider in scope than ever be fore, is not being conducted for the purpose - of encouraging legislation against tobacco," is the assurance of Mrs. Buland. And yet, at the same time, the man who swears allegiance to the pipe, cigar or cigarette Is beginning to wonder what it is all about. LOGGER HELD FOR THEFT H. 31.
