Assignment of pastors for the next year, reading of various appoint ments by Bishop William O. Shepard and announcement that First church, Portland, had been selected for the meeting of ministers and laymen a year hence, featured the closing hours of the annual Oregon confer ence of the Methodist Episcopal church which adjourned at noon to day. The. conference started last Tuesday. In announcing the assignment of pastors Bishop Shepard said the task had proved one of the most difficult ana unpleasant problems that had confronted him since he became the acting head of the conference. He declared that he had been besieged with appeals on behalf of certain ministers and that many of them had requested that-they be assigned to churches in or near the larger citlea of the state. Assignments Based on Merits. It was made plain by the bishop that the assignments were based on merit and opportunity for future re sults, and that he had not allowed his personal relations with the min- Smith: Redmond, C. M.

At an informal meeting of the council, at the suggestion of City Commissioner Bigelow, the of ficials instructed City Attorney Grant to prepare to represent the city at the hearing. A formal resolution authorizing the city attorney's office to proceed in the case will be presented to the council tomorrow by Commis sioner Bigelow and will be adopted. "I have noticed in the newspapers that another hearing of the tele phone rate case will begin on Octo ber 2," said Commissioner Bigelow in introducing the subject to the council. "When the telephone case was up before the city attorney's office made a very strenuous fight and has much evidence and informa tion that no doubt would be of value in the new case, "The question of telephone rates is one that afpcts the great ma jority of people of Portland as well as of the state of Oregon, and if it can be shown that the rates are not equitable and just, they should be reduced. "I feel that the city council should take such steps as will insure the people of Portland representation at this hearing." City Attorney Grant announced that H. M. Tomlinson, assistant city attorney, who was In charge of the city's case in the telephone rate hearings of the past, would be as signed to the new telephone case. While Mr. Tomlinson has many data that will be of value, no doubt, in the new case, it is quite possible that it will be necessary for the city to employ a competent engineer to aid in preparing the city's end of the case. Mayor Baker, and In fact all of the members of the council, gave hearty support to Mr. Bigelow's suggestion. Mayor Baker held that it was the plain duty of the city to do all within its power to bring about a reduction in the present telephone tariffs. "The city took the position a year ago .that the rates now In effect I were excessive and there Is no rea son why the city should not take the same stand at this time," the mayor said. "In fact, if anything, there is greater reason now for a reduction than was the case a year ago. It will take a little money to participate ' in the case, but 1 feel as Commissioner Bigelow does, that the expenditure of this money is absolutely justified. . CRIME DECLARED WANING Captain of Inspectors Reports on Conditions In August. Despite recurring attacks on women in the Peninsula districts, there was less crime in August than in many previous months, according to the mpnthly report submitted by Captain of Inspectors HaAns to Chief of Police Jenkins. In all, 71 arrests were made by the bureau of Inspectors, the largest number, 17, being for vagrancy. Two murderer suspects, eight fugi tives from justice, six alleged burglars, nine men wanted for larceny and a number of others were apprehended. Thirty-three vagrants were arrested by other divisions and six suicide cases were investigated. Cases reported for investigation numbered 243 and 161 were cleared up. Two of the three murder cases called to the bureau's attention were satisfactorily investigated. CHEST COMMITTEE MEET PUBLICITY WORKERS DIS CUSS CAMPAIGN PLANS. FIRE DAMAGING EARTH Blaze Eats Way Into Reclaimed Land, AVhich May Be Flooded. KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Sept. 11. (Special.) Thousands of acres in the lower Klamath marsh are men aced by the fire which started Fri day on the grain ranch of Chin Lung, near Midland. More than 1500 acres of grain have been destroyed. The greatest damage, however, is being dons to the ground. The fire has burned into the tule, roots and eaten two feet into the ground. It Is believed a large area will have to be flooded, encircling the fire to keep It from destroying the fertility of ' the entire reclaimed portion of the marsh. There are about 20,000 acres in this danger area. A new highway bridge is menaced and the county court today sent re inforcements to aid the fire-fight ers. Twenty men have been on the scene since the fire started. At noon today they were said to be com pletely exhausted. PRUNE HARVEST BEGUN Crops InvPolk and Linn Counties Unusually Heavy.

THE fine weather gives a steady flow of machines at the camp of around 60 and 70 arrivals and departures a day, and the num ber camped on the grounds Is something les3 than 200. The gang of park workmen, consisting of some 15 men and a foreman, are still at work, their labors at present being devoted to filling ln the bad places in the streets with gravel, All of the brush that will be cut has been taken from the tract, and from now on the work will be toward beautifying the grounds and streets therein. Milton Roberts and wife, with their young lady daughter, Ivy, ar rived from Winnipeg. They left their home on the first of May, and have devoted their time to explor ing British Columbia and the states of Idaho and Washington. After a very pleasant trip they expect to start from here to their home. From Elmira, Idaho,-- came two machinists, F. W. Pett and E. H. Kirk. They left their Idaho home about two weeks ago, and from here they expect to go to Los Aut geles, possibly for the winter. They are rather undecided as to their future, but Portland looks good to them, and they may return, from California to Portland. J. J. Monroe, with his son, L. B., and daughter, Mrs. Howard Wade, with little Howard Jr., 1 year old. are from Walla Walla. They have been traveling for two weeks, and have visited friends as far south as Medford. They will return to their home via Seattle, making a trip of about 39 days. A well-worth-while family, consist-' ing of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Daugherty, with their eight children, names and agesas follows: Sam Jr. age 20; Tohn, 19; Patrick, 13; James, 12; Catherine, 11; Mary, 10; Julia, 7, and little Hannah More, 13 months, and all fine children, let me tell you. They left their Los Angeles home in an old boat that went back on them up about Se attle, so they sold it and bought a tine Dodge truck, which carries them nicely. Mr. Daugherty dabbles in real estate in the California wonder city, afld he will get back irom here as soon as possible to attend to business. . From New York city came Mr. and Mrs. S. A. Baker, with J. Farber. Mr. Baker ' is an accountant and Mr. Farber a tailor. They left the big city 90 days ago, and have ex plored all parts of the middle west. From here they will go to the Josephine caves, to Crater lake, and then down to southern California for . the winter. "Out to be out wherever and whenever the notion takes us," is the motto of Mr. and Mrs. W. B Lance of Seattle, and they live up to it, or have for the month they have been on the road. They do not as yet know where they are going irora here. Nor do they care. When the spirit moves them they win move on somewhere. From Casper, Wyo., came to the camp Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Jones after a month's travels from Casper to ir-ortiana. Mr. Jones Is a plasterer, and it may be he will choose a home ln Portland. Or he may move on to southern California for the winter. ' Mr. and Mrs, Lionel Gilchrist ar rived from Indianapolis, having left there July 16. Mr. Gilchrist is an auto mechanic and rather expects to come here to make his home. From Madison, Wis., arrived Mr. and Mrs, C. S. Paxton. They left their Wisconsin home May 13, and are bound for southern California. However, they are really frpm Pittsburg, Pa., having only stopped over a couple of months ln Madison. And they are quite likely to remain in Portland, if Mr. Paxton can get a Job as a salesman, his old busi ness. He was out looking for a position yesterday. S. N. Stinebeck, a carpenter, and Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Sale are from Columbus, Mont. Mr. Sale is also a carpenter, and they may here after register irom Portland. Man, Fugitive From Easby, N. D., Accused of Theft From Amer ican Express Company. Letters from his wife, urging him to come Home and face his accusers resulted in the arrest last night of JS. L. Wolf, 27, of Easby, N. D., to be held for the authorities there as a fugitive from justice. Inspectors Drennan and Davis met Wolf and another man at Third and Ankeny streets, arrested them on suspicion and found I. W. W. liter ature in their pockets? With that for a pretext, both were taken to inspectors' headquarters for ex amination. Neither man would talk freely, but when Drennan found letters from Mrs. Wolf telling him that detectives were watching the house and that she wished he would re turn and submit to arrest. Wolf admitted that he had been a fugi tive from Easby since last June. Inspectors learned that Wolf had been in the employ of the American Express company there. He is said to have owned up to the theft of ?200 In checks, which he cashed. TIMBER TRANSFER MADE Significance of Long-Bell Trans action Not Disclosed. i KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Sept. 11. (Special.) Transfer of timber lands valued at $3,000,000 from the Long Bell White Pine company to the Long-Bell Lumber company was In dicated in a deed filed with the county clerk here this morning. The deed covers all property of the Long-Bell company in Klamath and Lake counties, including 86,418 acres of timber. In the absence of offi cials of either concern it was im passible to learn the significance of the transaction. One surmise of local timbermen was that it was a transfer from the holding corporation to the- operat ing concern and foreshadowed a movement to get timber blocked and iu shape for manufacturing. An other theory is that the southern Oregon property is security for a bond issue and the proceeds will be used in financing operations at the new Long-Bell plant at Kelso, Wash. Steps were taken yesterday to be gin a whirlwind drive to close up the reservation list for the "1925 special," which will leave Portland the l.ight of September 18, carrying 125 exros'tion enthusiasts on a mis sion to eastern Oregon cities. Mayor Baker, director-general of the ex nnvltion ramDaien committee, and Williai.i P. Merry, in charge of the caravan, at a conference, decided that the list could not be held open longer for the convenience of busi ness men who are trying to arrange their affa;rg so that they might ac company the excursion. Saturday at noon was the time fixed for closing the list and all applications must be in at that hour. This is necessary in order to give the caravans-directors .nd railroad company time in which to make necessary arrangements, such as as signments of berth locations, and to close up all details of the trip. More than one-half the reserva tions have been taken and those in charge express the belief that many persons deciding at the last moment to make the trip will be disap pointed. MISS VAN KLEECK HEARD Significance of Industrial Democ racy Is Explained. Five hundred labor men, their wives and families, packed one of the halls of the Labor temple last night to l'sten to Miss Mary Van Kleeck, director of the department of industrial studies of the Russell Sage Foundation, explain the sig nificance of the industrial democ racy proposed by teachers of the new order. Miss Van Kleeck stressed the Im portance of public support ln labor disputes. The unsympathetic atti tude of the public, she explained, is often due to misunderstanding and lack of information. Revela tions of corruption and mismanage ment in certain unions, the building trades particularly, she declared, had much to do with the popular antagonism to the labor cause. his home. Ball has been set at $500. Varvllla, Miller and Welnsteia were convicted of bootlegging ln Clackamas county a week ago and fined an aggregate of $1500, the sum which they attempted to get from Capitanovlch who, they assert, brought about their arrest. They were picked up by Inspectors Col lins and Thomas and Sergeant Parker. FELONY CHARGED TO TRIO Attempt to Extort $1500 Is Al leged by Complainant. George Varvilla and Mike Miller, Austrians, and Abe Weinsteln are held in the city jail charged with threat to commit felony on com plaint of Mike Capitanovlch, 675 East Glisan street. Capitanovlch said that the three men attempted to extort $1500 from him and threat ened to kill him should he leave AUTO KILLS MESSENGER Lent S. AVoodyard, Aged 19, Dead as Result of Mishap. Lent S. Woodyard, 19, messenger for the Western Union Telegraph company, was structc last night by the automobile of Irvln Welch, Park Rose grocer, at East Burnside and East Twentieth streets. He died an hour after the accident at St. Vincent's hospital. Police investigated the accident after the boy had been reported dead, and after examining a number of witnesses came to the conclu sion that it was unavoidable on the part of Welch. He was not released from custody until he had been ab solved of any charges of reckless ness. Welch said he was driving north on East Twentieth street and was about to start across the intersec tion with East Burnside at about 15 miles an hour when Woodyard, riding a motorcycle at a fast pace, attempted to cross in front of him. going west on East Burnside. Welch cramped his car, but said he could not avoid the collision. A police physician who attended the victim at the scene of the ac cident found him unconscious, with a fracture of the skull, and sent him to St. Vincent's hospital. He died without regaining consciousness. Parents of the boy live ln Hood River. He had been living at 309 Sixth street. of Taylor Lady In the Ballston vicin ity, and Mrs. Max O. Their on Rock creek.
