tfHE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, .POUTLAND, SEPTEMBER IT, 1905 AIDED By SHERIFF ut-Rate Ticket Office Visited by Word. C. H. THOMPSON ARRESTED His Clerics Arc Also Taken Intojjus tody, Ibut All Are Allowed no Go on Their Own Recognizances. ' C. H. Thompson's cut-rate ticket office on Third street was raided by Sheriff Word yesterday afternoon, who was armed with warrants Issued by Justice Bold for the arrst of Mr. Thompson, and Martin J. Higlcy. Frank Bollam and John Cullay. who are In Mr. Thompson's employ. Thero were four charges against each of violat ing the law pa sued at the last session of the Legislature against ticket-scalping, or dealing in railroad tickets except by au thorized agents holding certificates. The Sheriff was also armed with search-warrants, and seized seven tlokots which the accused say had Just been forwarded to them by mall, and which were not on sale. This will be a question of proof hereafter. No other tickets were found. The search warrants called for the searching of the persons of Mr. Thompson and his men. M. L. Pipes and John F. Logan, their at torneys, protestod against a personal search as contrary to law, and Sheriff "Word and Dan J. Malarkey, attorney for the Railway Ticket Protective Bureau,, did not Insist on compliance with this part of the warrant. The Sheriff was in a good-natured mood, and In response to a declaration by Mr. Pipes that he had acted contrary to law in the past, and must not do so in this Instance, stated that the courts had sustained him. The attorney admitted this, but still contended that the Sheriff had been wrong, and announced that as he had won out, he would take off his i.at to him. Sheriff Word stated that as it was Saturday afternoon, and as the hour was late, nearly i o'clock, he would allow the accused to go upon their own recognizance. Mr. Thompson is a man of wealth, and his clerks are well-known young men; An effort Is bolng made to compel the ticket brokers to sus pend business, but tboy do not show any disposition to retire, and a legal battle is promised. The cases will be called in Justice Beld's court Monday. Judge Frazcr sustained the Jaw in cases brought before him whero brokers from St. Louis were said to be en gaged in disreputable practices. Attorney Malarkey states that, not withstanding the law, nnd after its atidlty has been fully sustained by Judge Frazer, Mr. Thompson and his associates have been doing a ticket scalping businoss at No. 128 Third street, in defiance of the law. Mr. Malarkey says that tho four com plaints filed in the Justice Court, which are sworn to by four persons who have purchased tickets at Thomp son's office during- the past few days, and other evidenpe in his possession, show that, notwithstanding- Mr. Thompson's promises to the contrary, he 16 dealing- in Lewis and Clark Fair tickets, and daily violating- the law. "Other ticket-scalpers have been con victed and compelled to observe the law," says Mr. Malarkey, "and there is no good reason why Mr. Thompson and his associates should not obey the law, and the only question In those prosecutions is whether these partic ular defendants are or are not greater than the law." POWERS DEFENDS 1 SOI DEMANDS SAM IS TREATMENT GIVEN BENNETT AND OTHERS. Politician Declares Thnt Poker Playing on the Part of Illti Boy Is No Worse. Demanding equal rights for all and special privileges for none. Patrick Powers, the Democratic politician of Portland declares he will fight for the release of his son, who was capturod with others in an alleged poker ?ame in h saloon operated by J. W. Ri. fen rath. 415 North Twenty-fourth street, Friday night by Sergoant of Police Baty and Acting Doteetlve Hlllyer. THking the stand that his son is Just as good as A. S. Bennett, counsel for Congressman Williamson: Mayor Mat lock, of Pondleton; Dr. J. M. Davis, ox Chief of Police Robertson. Tom Mai lock and Charles Babb, recently cap tured In an alleged poker game, Mr. Powers proposes to demand the release of his son. All of the noted individuals, some of whom possess considerable wealth and influence, -wore given no special pro tection by Hoadquarters Detectives Carpenter and Resing, who found them playing a game of some kind, in a room of the Imperial Hotel. They wero compelled to accompany the officers to the central station, but City Attorney McNary, when he was apprised of the facts, ordered the release of the pris oners, and no charges wore ever filed against them. Not being able to see any distinction between his own son and groat and wealthy mon like those arrested by Carpenter and Rosing, Patrick Powers intends to make It hot" for the offi clals if they decline to release his son as well. He appeared in the Municipal Court oarly yesterday morning, before any one but Clerk Hennessey had ar rived, and made statements to this effort. When the cases were called. B. A. Powers, J. B. Boyne, James Day and J. French answered to their names. After some parley, it was decided to permit the young men to go on ball of $10 each, and the cases are to be heard to morrow. Sergeant. Baty and Acting Doteetlve Hlllyer declare that the young men were engagod In a game of poker, but each of the prisoners denies this. When all -.f those notables "were "plnohed" by Carpenter and Resing. they also denied tney were playing poker, so the cir cumstances appoar to bo much alike, except that these young men were playing in a saloon and the others were In a private room.

Portland will soon be visited by one of the leading rabbis In this country. Congregation Ahaval Sholom of this city ha ln-itl Rabbi Wolf Willaer. f Meridian. Mts., to occupy Its pulpit during the coming Jewish holiday New Tear and Day of Atonement on September SO and October 1 and 0. If ttl-. factory arrangement can be perfected it is the desire of the officers and mem ber of this congregation to have Dr. Wlllner remain permanently In charge of the spiritual welfare of the congregation. It abb! Wlllner Is now In charge of the Jewish congregation at Meridian. This Is Jhe tonth year of Ms pastorate In the Southern elty, but.lt 1 bis detlre to have a larger and broader field to work in. Rabbi WiUner Is a scholar of both' the old and new schools. He possesses the broad cult-Are of an Araeriean university graduate and the Talmudlc schol arship Inculcated Into Mm by the thorough training of a rabbi of the old school. Rawbt Wlllner was bora 42 years ago IA Strasshurg, Germany, where his father was at tho hoaa of Jewish affairs. He attended school there uatll 1874, whon his parents emigrated to this country. After becoming settled here he entered Yale Cllece. graduating therefrom with the degree of B. A. In It Si and M. A. In 1S87. Afterward he attended the philosophical department at Johns Hopkins Uslverrity. In 1SS7 he was called to the congregation Oheb Sholom la Newark, N.

Other "men claim to have seen Gris wold during; the hours he was said to have been in bed. Disclosures tonight show that Griswold was deeply In volved financially. He Is also said to have boon mixed up with a number of women In Omaha and Sioux City, as well as in Dec' Moino. and this. It is belicvod. may have boon one of the causes for the murder.

FINDS PORTLAND CHANGED Was Not Away So Long as Rip Van "Winkle, but Finds as Much Ad vancement During Absence asvDld That Worthy. Walter Moss is back. He has not been away nearly as long as Rip Van Winkle. but he has assuredly encountered quite as many changes in municipal growth and civic conditions. He is the son of S. TV. Moss, who made a historic trip to Oregon in 1812, and who died at Oregon City about three years ago, at the age of 87. S. W. Moss headed a party that wag organised at Fort Smith. Ark, and composed of the following per sons, all of whom became more or less prominently identified with the growth and development of this country: Medorcm Crawford A. L. Lovejoy, D. W. Petty grove and J. B. Robb. At Fort Laramie. Neb., they were Joined by F. X. Mat thleu, who Ik famous as the sole survivor of those who, at Champocg. May 2. 1S4S, voted that Oregon should become a part of the territory of the United States. Walter S. Moss was born at Oregon City, July 10, IBS. At (hat time Portland wits not much thought of.

In 1851 Mr. Moss established the Sunday Mercury here, bringing the plant down jxom aatem. no conducted the vzocr until 1JS3, when he became Identified with the theatrical business, which he has fol lowed ever since, and during which time he has visited almost every- portion of the globe. He brought the Calhoun Opera Company here In 1S34. and In tnis way gave Calvin Heillg his first theatrical ex perience. At that time the latter was or ganizing the chain of theaters that has since developed into tho Northwestern cir cuit. He was new at the business, and his maiden attraction was the Calhoun Op era Company, of which Moss was advance agent and Jules Murry. of New Yonc, manager. While Moss has been back here at in tervals, there have been such gaps in his visits that he hardly knows the place any more. He was last here about six years ago, but only on a flying trip, and-In fact he has had slight opportunity for famil iarizing himself with events since he left, 22 years ago. Realty He Failed to Bay. While a newsbor he managed to save a little money, and Captain Flanders, the owner of the addition of that name, en deavored to induce him to invest his sav ings In local real estate, offering him three blocks In proximity to the, Welnhard brew ery for $50 each. That part of town was all grown up with forests then, and so remote from the business center that young Moss scouted the idea of squander ing his earnings In that fashion, looKing upon Captain Flanders oner as a sencme to bunco him. Mr. Moss has had a chance to renew his acquaintance with Portland since re turning, and the effort has been so agree able that he nay conclude to locate per manently. At all events, he says, he will try to rid himself of the vagabond in stinct long enough to become one more a respected citizen of this city, which he describes as possessed of more in trinsic fascination than any spot on earth. I DETAILS OF OIIEG OMAN'S OFFER TO THE PUBLIC Subscribers Are Given tin Opportunity to Secure n Fine Instrument so Premium. That tho Talkophonc is a purveyor of pleasure not only to famlllos but the entire public Is recognized by all. It Is not often that the public as able to get something for nothing, but The Orego nlan has entered into a contract with the Talkophonc Company of Ohio, the largest of its kind In the United States, and the Ellors Piano House of Portland, whereby old and new subscribers of The Oregomian areyentitled to a 525 Tolkophone free of cnarre. On this proposition thousands of dollars, have been spent that the public might have the benefit of obtaining a machine. Tho machine Is not a toy but a first-class Instrument nnd Is guaranteed for one year. The Talkophone Is the only ma chine ever manufactured that does away with the scratcny and metallic sound that Is so common to the ordi nary production. But as it Is Impossible to give a $25 machine free without asking some favor in return, in order to partially oover the cost of this article the donors request that the receivers of the gift buy $35 worth of records from the Eilers Piano House. By paying but $1 a week for 35 weeks tnesc records can be obtained. Subscribers to The Orego nlan 'pay (or the paper as heretofore, the machine Is donated, and. as the records arc necessary they can be ob tained for the nominal sumof ?1 a week. As the Talkophono is useless with-1 out the records the only request mnJe is that they be purchased from Eilers Piano House. The public will say that $35 wqrth of records must be purchased to get the machine; and that by paying $1 a week and $1 down that another machine can be had. This Is true. But in paying $1 down and $1 a weak 3-0 u have purchased the' machine only and will have to pay cash also for the rec ords. Consequently you pay for the ma chine and the records also. But for the Talkophonc you pay notnlng and tho records will cost no moro than will be charged by any deal er of records In the United States as a standard price is maintained by all dealers and prices are never cut. The Talkophone Is worth $25. The total outtlt from the manufacturer is worth $60. The Oregonlan offers to old and new subscribers alike the Talko phone free and the $60 outfit is offered for but $25. saving you $25. Eilers have on the road a carload of Zonophone records, known throughout the oountry as the most perfect manu factured and having no equal In the world. The Oregonlan has gono to great expense In securing the oontract for tho records In the Interest of its subscribers. WW LEAGUE OF CLUBS nEPUBLICAX ORGANIZATION IN PORTLAND SO PLANS. Scads Circular; to All Bodies In ' Ore jrOB to Meet on Lincoln's Birthday Here. A State League of Republican Clubs in Oregon is proposed by the Republican Club of Portland, which has started for this end a movement for party peace, with the same objects In view as the coming lovefeast of State Chairman Baker.

TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION Assignment of Ministers to Churches in the State AV11I Take Place at This lectins, Necessi tating Several Changes. The annual session of the Oregon Conference. Methodist Episcopal Church, will begin Tuesday night of this weeK at Albany, a temperance rally being tne nrst numoer on tne programme. Bishop William Fraser McDowell will preside. Addresses by men prominent In the affairs of the denomination, in cluding Bishop J. M. "Walden. General Secretary Edwin M. Randall, of the Ep worth League, and others, business and pleasure will occupy the members and visiting friends until the following Monday night. Friday and Saturday of tnis weeK, the Laymen's Association, organized at Eugene last year, will meet in con- Junction with the ministerial sessions. This is expected to be nn Interesting foaturo of the conference, it Is sup posed to raflect the wishes of tho laity, and its recommondatlons have great weight with tha ministerial body. Booth Will Not rrcslde. Senator R. A. Booth, one of the most nromlnent Methodists In the Oregon conference, was unanimously elected president of the Laymen's Association last -year, but it is understood that. because hels under Indictment in the lanri-frauil pnsos now. he will request Vice-President B. Lee Paget to preside in his stead. President Bootn, However, will be present, as he Is greatly inter ested in the affairs of the church. It is stronclv Intimated by ome that one or more ministers In tho confer ence may be called upon to explain their connection with the charges re cently preferred against Rev. Mr. El liott, of Vancouver. Wash., by Mrs. Hidden., and which wore dismissed at Everett yesterday. It is said the troubles were stirred by at least one mlnlst-r belonging to the Oregon con ference. Much business Is to come before the conference, one Important matter be ing a resolution to be addressed to Bishop McDowell, requesting him to re distrlct tho conference, making Port land a great and undivided district. It is now split at the Willamette River Tlfe Oregon conference embraces the western and southern portions of the state, having large and important In terests. Many Portland ministers of the denomination will depart tomorrow and Tuesday for the sessions. Perhaps the greatest interest centers in the as signment fo the large number of min isters for tho ensuing year by Bishop McDowell. There are always somQ changes, but it is Impossible -to fore cast what these' will be. as the presid ing elders and bishop presiding cannot know themselves until everything Is ooneidereJ. According to reports, this bas been a most prosperous year, and great progress will be shown by the statements to be read. Programme for the TVeek. The complete programme follows: TUESDAY. 7-30 P.

"In my opinion, the passage of this ordinance will bring the city Into end lees litigation before the courts, and thus all measures for the relief of the people from the evil sought to be cured will be Indefinitely suspended." .
