HASTEN ITS REPORT!
Trust Committee Fears Recall
. by Council.
END FURNITURE HEARINGS
Dealers Oppose Dropping of Inves
tigation at This Ttme, as They
Wish to fchow There Id
No Combine.
Investigation into the alleged furniture
'trust' by a special committee of three
of the Council, will probably be com
pleted 'this week. A meeting- will be
leld at the City Hall at 10 o'clock tomor
row morning, at which several prominent
furniture -dealers-will testify. --It-seems
likely that other meetings,. will occur this
week, and that the committee s will be
ready to formulate ita report by Sat
urday. Report at Next Session..
Tt is Baid to be the intention of the
special investigating committee to rush
matters as much as possible, while its
lease of life lasts, as it Is predicted in
City Hall circlrs that the majority of
tUe Council intends to recall it. It Is,
therefore,- presumed that the members
of the committee will try to complete the
Investigation of the furniture trade be
fore the next Council meeting.
Councilman Vaughn, a Democrat and
a stanch supporter of Mayor bane, is
cnalrman- of the special investigating
committee, and Councilman Concannon,
also a Democrat and Lane admirer, is
another member; Councilman Belding.- a
Republican and author of the anti-trust
ordinance under which the committee is
operating, is the lone representative of
the- majority faction of the Council, and
ia. therefore, virtually without power on
the committee, as the two Lane sup
porters can out-vote him on every matter
that comes up in the committee.
The majority faction of the Council
has determined to wipe out all coriimlt
tees appointed by the Mayor and to . pre
vent the naming of others. They say
that if the Mayor desires peace he should
recognise the majority and appoint some
of its members as chairman of these
special committees. Mayor Lane, how
ever, smiles at such a suggestion and
continues to place in charz those upon
whom he can drpend for loyalty to his
policies. Hence, war to the knife has
been declared against him and his polit
ical followers in the Council minority.
They are to be left without power if the
majority mcmberi. can do so by their
votes.
Want to Prtne Innocence. r
Regarding-the intention , of the major
of the Council to withdraw all spe
cial committees that are not to their lik
ing. It is said that any attempt of the
faction to behead the special investigat
ing committee will meet with strong ob
jections from all of the prominent mem
bers of the furniture trade. It Is said
that the furniture dealers, both whole
sale and retail, will Insist upon the com
pletion of the investigation of their busi
ness, and that they will flgbt any efforts
In the Council to recall the committee.
As the situation is viewed by the fur
niture dealers, thfy cannot . now afford
to have the Investigation dropd. Tt has
gone too far and they are said to stand
an a unit in the demand that the Coun
cil "make good" or acknowledge de
feat. .......
The special committee-was named large
ly at the request of City Attorney Kav
tnaiiixh, and the Investigations have been
conducted by Assistant tlty Attorney
Orant. Although the furniture trade. was
the t.rst to h1 investigated, Mr. Yuughn
declares that the plumber, the draymen,
the grocers snd "everything that looks
like a "trust" will receive attention.
"What will you do if the Council be
heads your committee?" Mr. Vaughn was
asked yesterday.
"Quit." he replied, with emphasis.
"They have the power to cut off our
heads, and If they see fit to do it, that
ends it. However, 1 think that to recall
us would be a great injustice to the pub
He, as I think there are many lines of
business that need probing, and I rope
they will permit us to go ahead and com
plete our work."
FILIPINO LAWS ARE GOOD
Congress a Success Tariff Modifica
tion Greatly Xeecled.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 14. W. Mor
gan Shuster. formerly Collector of the
Port of Manila, now .a member of the
Philippine Commission and secretary of
the ftoard of Public Instruction, ar
rived here yesterday on the liner Man
churia. He Hays that the Philippine
Congress to far has proved a success.
The native loKirlntors have . accepted
their no reHpons'lhiHtles In a proper
spirit and such laws as they have en
acted arc (rood.
"The Philippines.' he continued, 4nced
a chance to sell their sugar, tobacco and
other products in the United States.
They also need capital to develop their
resources, but will jtet neither until the
tariff Is modified In favor of the Islands.
"In spite of all obstacles. how ever,
wonders have been done In the islands,
specially in and about Manila. We have
now a good water supply, scientific sani
tation, a good lighting and streetcar
service and first-class shipping: facilities.
The harbors have been improved, and
when the tariff gives thorn a chance
the 1 hind s will be ready to take it-"
KEEP THEM OUTSIDE CITY
Abattoirs Have No I'lacc Inside the
Limits, Says T. Y. Yrecland.
PORTLAND, March R (To the Edi
tor.) While all of our cttliens are
anxious to have the great Chicago pack
ing concerns make, investments In our
city, and establish their plants here. It
Meim to me that it is against the policy
of the city to allow any of them to
establish their works inside of the city
limits.
Bveryon who has had any experience
in towns where packing-houses are con
ducted knows that such plants arc more
or lesa objectionable as neighbors. As
long as there Is plenty of room outside of
the olty limits convenient to rail and
water facilities, there is no need for
putting such plants Inskle of the city. On
the other hand, if the City Council grants
permission to build the proposed plant
at the old Zimmerman packing-house In
South Portland, it will have to grant the
application of every other bulcher in the
olty who desires to slaughter cattle with
in til city limits. Simply because the
Schwarsschlld & Sulzberger people have a
great deal of money and are promising to
spend tt. is no reason why the city can
discriminate. A small man Is entitled
to the same consideration as a la;ge one.
Other cities have been making strenuous
efTorts to drive the packing-houses out
side of the . town- limits. After a long
siege Seattle has just succeeded in getting
the Frye-Bruhn concern outside of that
cliyv Los Ajigcles has had the same prob-
lem: it has taken several years to ac-j
complish the same result. Long ago
fact, all modern cities make it a rule
to prohibit slaughtering inside of the city
limits. '
It seems strange, therefore, that the
proposition to allow an outside concern
to come into Portland to do the very
thing that has been prohibited in the
past will be entertained by any sensible
person. It makes no difference whether
it promises to run the concern in a sani
tary manner or not. Anyone knows that
the driving of cattle through the streets,
the slaughtering "of animals, and the
packing of meats, make more or less a
nuisance. If there was no room beyond
the city limits, and it was a case of
necessity, the problem might be different,
but. as matters stand, there seems to be
no good reason why the city should make
an exception in' favor of the proposition
that is now urged.

FOREST RANGER SCOUTS
Pinchot Says They Are Only Ones
Who Can Do This Duty.
NEW YORK. March 14. Declaring It is
only from forest rangers In the Bervlce of
the United States that scouts can be re
cruited for service "in the war that Is
coming;," Gilford Pinchot, Chief Forester
of the Department of Agriculture, startled
his hearers at a dinner last evening by
discussing the war as if conflict were un
avoidable. 'In the great war which this country
wffl fight, but which I -hope with all my
heart It will not have to tight soon," Mr.
Pinchot said, "the only quarter to which
this Government could look for scouts is
the Bureau of Forestry. There, and there
only, are men being trained In such a
fashion that they would be of service.
"It Is of Importance that we preserve
the forests and the game, but it U more
important that we be in condition to fur-

CRAZY RED MAN VERY NOISY
Lights Fuse- Near Powder Magazine
and Fires Gun Into Buildings.
LYLE. Wash., March 14. (Special.)
Passengers on the Goldendale train Tues
day evening witnessed the unusual. spec
tacle of a crazy Indian. The unfortunate
victim is Frank Deaf, a nephew of "In
dian Jim." at Klickitat Falls. Officer
Marion Splawn. .who took charge of the
Insane man, says that one of the most
dnngerous amusements and noisy prac
tices he found this "wild devil'' engaged
in at the time of his capture was the
lighting of pieces of fuse near a powder
magazine, and the firing of a gun at
random into barns and other buildings.
Officer Splawn says the crazy Indian Is
18 years old. -and comes from a family
Splawn has known for 40 years, who dur
ing that time were peaceable to early
settlers, especially to his father, Frank
M. Splawn. and to Jim Lylc.

SL! IN VENDETTA
Italian Killed by Men at Whom
He Fired Shot.
ONE HOLDS, OTHER SHOOTS
Black-Hand Feud Causes a Bloody
Scene on New York Street Draw
ins; of Revolvers Is An- "
swer to Question.
NKW YORK, March 14. A well-dressed,
prosperous-looking Italian was shot to
death In a street duel with two men at
One Hundred and Fourteenth street and
First avenue today. The two mn made
their escape and have not been captured.
From stories told by several persons
who witnessed the affray. It is believed
that the dead man was a Black Hand,
and that his death was the result of ' an
attempt to collect tribute from the men
who afterwards Villed him or that be
sought revenge upon one of the men he
attacked.
The well-dressed man, who was a
stranger in the neighborhood, which is
in the heart of the Italian district, had
been seen there for several hours. The
stranger stationed himself at the corner
of One HunCred and Fourteenth street
and First avenue. When two men, wheel
ing carts filled with bananas, came along,
he started toward them. The men stood
still and the stranger was heard to say:
"Did you receive that message?
Both men with the cart made an
answer. Then the stranger drew a re
volver. The two men were equally quick.
The weapons were levelled at the same
time. The stranger fired and It is be
lieved his shot struck one of his adver
saries in the hand. With the echo of the
first. shot the two men closed In on the
stranger. They caught his revolver hand
and, while one held it, the other pressed
a revolver close against the back of the
man's head and fired. The man fell to
the sidewalk, dying.
For a moment the two men stood
witching the death struggles of their
victim. Then they fled in opposite di
rections. DROWNS IN THE NECANICUM
Poter Stanton Falls Into River While
Working . With Log Drive.
SEASIDE, Or.. March 14. (Special.)
The Necanicum has claimed another vic
tim. Last night Peter Stanton, a young
man hailing from West Virginia, near
Wheeling, was drowned just below Camp
No. 2. The river is full of logs at that
point, and when yesterday's freshet oc
curred, a drive was instituted in which
young Stanton lost his life.
Stanton and a man named Catfield were
riding a log, when the sweep struck thera
and knocked them both into the water.
Catfield caughthold of some brush and
while holding to it Stanton passed him,
swimming strongly. When Catfield
reached land, a search was begun for
Stanton, but no trace of him could be
found.
All day today men have been searching
for the body, but have not succeeded In
locating it. Owing to the extreme high
water and Its muddy condition, it is im
possible to distinguish an object six
inches below the surface.
Stanton was a minor who, from the
meager Information at hand, had rela
tives residing in West Virginia. He had
been working for the Seaside Lumber
Company during the past Winter, and in
tended returning to his native state this
Summer.
BIDWELLS CONFIDENCE MEN
i
"Cold Motor' Promoters Arc Founti
- Guilty of Bunco Game.
CHICAGO. March 14. Benson Bid
well and his son, Charles F. BIdwell,
promoters of the BIdwell Electric Com
pany, the so-called "cold motor con
cern," were found guilty tonight of
operating a confidence game. Benson
Bidwell, who Is a brother of George
and Austin Bidwell, who defrauded the
Bank of England out of Jj,000,000,
started the company In 1876. He de
clared he had invented an electric
motor that could not burn out.
The state brought forward expert
electricians who declared thatr the mo
tor Invented by the elder BIdwell was
impracticable. A model of the motor
was also exhibited. In operating it
carbonic gas was pumped into aper
tures. The expanding gas caused the
outside of the machine to be coated
with frost, but the state declared that
the armature waa not affected and was
as likely to burn out as In an ordinary
motor.

THE FREEDOM OF DIVORCE
Writer Says It Betters Social Status
- of Sufferers.
SALEM. Or., March 13. (To the Editor.)
I desire to thank The Oregonlan for its
editorial In last Sunday's issue entitled
"Eleven Divorces." This is almost the first
true statement of the divorce question that
has been printed and I think the first print
ed in tha West. The monumental ignorance
of the general public on this most vital of
questions concerning our present-day civil
ization is almost beyond belief.
For nine years I have made a special
study of divorce law and can confirm from
actual observation that In the great ma
jority of cases the divorce has bettered the
social status - of the party seeking it. In
very many. Indeed In practically all cases,
where a second marriage is contracted, the
divorced person is more careful In selection,
and a good homs with proper family ties is
found where formerly there was sin and
disorder. Of course, there are some ex
ceptions and these usually attract attention
and are exploited by the sensational publi
cations. From these exceptional cases, all
cases are erroneously Judged by ths general
public I can cits any interested student
to hundreds of actual examples of the bene
ficial effects of the granting of divorces, In
proper cases. The modern divorce is an In
stitution that will endure and is one of the
most potent factors now employed for the
betterment of social conditions.
I again thank Ths Oregonlan for Its edi
