Even in First Interclub
Tournament.
FRANK INJURES OPPONENT
T'nwittiugly Strangles Klncald. Who
Has to Be Carried Off Mat Po

Bout Before Decision Given.
BT W. J. PETRA1S.
Th firm of the 'Winter boxing and
wrestling- inter-club tourney took place
lut night and representatives of the
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club of
Portland and the Seattle Athletic Club
contended at the local club. Each or
ganization acored victories in two of the
four events, each club winning a boxing
nd wrestling bout.
The first event on the programme was
the wrestling contest between Kincaid, of
Seattle, and Edgar Frank, of Multno
mah, the latter winning In 9 minutes
and 45 seconds. Frank got his man In
such a hold that Klncald was partially
strangled, without his opponent knowing
what was occurring. Referee Greenland
became aware of the situation and
promptly separated the wrestlers. Kln
cald had to be carried off the mat. He
recovered later, but forfeited the remain
tr.a bouts to Frank.
The next wrellng bout was much
more interesting: in fact It aroused al
most as much excitement as did the box
ing stunts between the Inter-club repre
sentatives. In E. D. Smith, Virgil Ven
ables. the Seattle star, found a man
worth while, for the new pupil of Ed
O'Connell proved strong enough to make
the visitor exert himself to the utmost.
' Venables finally won out by downing
Smith In two straight falls, but the
! Multnomah boy can rest assured thtl
his prowess suffered nothing by losing
to i :ch a clever exponent of the game
as the Seattle wrestler. Smith's game
ness was the signal for wild enthusiasm
every time he wriggled out of a danger
.. ous hold.
The principal boxing bouts were the
intr-club affairs. Harry Neirken suc
. reeded in reversing the derision scored
' over him by Billy Speck last May. for
the Multnomah lad found an opening
! immediately after the gong sounded
signalling the start, and Speck felt the
effects of the Jolt during the limited
' time the bout lasted. With a corking
em fish to the jaw In the second round.
Nelcken sent Speck to the floor, and
before the referee could count the Seat
I tie boy out. the police officers present
, and Die Multnomah Club officials en
tered the ring and prevented the ref-
' eree from completing the count.
Instructor ionnle Austin and Slina
i gr Billy Inglis. of Seattle, were both
: satisfied that Neicken had the beat of
the argument, and entered no protest
' fit the decision giving the Multnomah
i man the bout. Some of the rabid en
thusiasts present were Inclined to cen
; sure the police for coming forward, but
' In this they were perfectly correct, for
it was plainly evident that Speck could
' not have lasted much longer.
Neicken fought fiercely, and seemed
determined to win back his lost laurels,
' and his success was well earned, for
! Speck, handicapped by the terrilic Jolt
landed on him at the start, was Just
able to stave off Neicken occasionally.
The last bout, however, went to
Seattle, and evened matters up. C. C.
Kalph. who represented Multnomah, is
what a facetious one would term a
near-o-the-ground fighter, for he sel
dom stood up straight enough for any
one to get a look at his features. Cal
Harris. a rlean-limbed. cool-headed
1 boxer, represented Seattle, and while
lie took considerable punishment, there
was hardly ever any question about
his superiority over the local man, and
, when the decision was given to him,
after an extra round had been called,
it was unanimously approved by th
big crowd present.
The preliminary bouts between Fred
; Miller and Tom Burke, and Willie
; Struck and Cliff Pregmore. were won
: by the first-named in each instance.
: These bouts were fairly lively, al
; though the lads, at times, displayed
' xery little class.

lieney made his opening statement
to the jury consuming about three hours.
It was evident from Mr. Heney's state
ment that the prosecution expects to

step br step. forging the circum
stantial evidence against the former
political boss link by link. com
mencing with the first alleged bribery
and finally ending with the United
Kallroads case, the one on which he is
actually being tried. Such a pro
cedure will necessarily cover the en
tire history of the bribery-graft pros
ecution of the past two years and will
call for th testimony of a large num
ber of witnesses. Including all of the
ex-Supervisors, excepting one. who has
since died.
The present trial of Ruef began on
August ti. and one of the attorneys
for the defense predicted today that it
would not be concluded by Christmas.

DANGER IN PANIC TIMES
Flagg Protests Against Allowing
300-Foot Buildings in New York.
European Cities Fix Smaller
Maximum Height.
NEW YORK, Nov. 7. Dangers of con
gestion in downtown New York, should
the proposed new building code fall to
restrict more radically than now proposed
the height of buildings hereafter con
structed, were dwelt upon by prominent
architects and engineers before the build
ing committee of the Board of Aldermen
today.
Speaking for the American Institute of
Architects and Society of Beaux Arts,
Ernest Flagg. an architect, opposed the
recommendation of the Commission be
cause it fixed the limit of height so high
"that scarcely anyone would care .to
build higher."
Mr. Flagg pointed out the danger from
congestion in times of sudden panic. If
the people in' all the 300-foot buildings
which the new regulations would allow
to be constructed were to attempt to get
out at once.
The streets." concluded Mr. Flagg.
"could not hold them. To continue this
policy is to invite a disaster the like of
which has never been before known."
The committee on congestion of popula
tion submitted figures to show that in
London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna and every
large center of population In Europe the
maximum height permitted is consider
ably less than 100 feet.
The New York Board of Fire Under
writers and the Municipal Art Commis
sion also voiced opposition to the 300 and
350-foot limitation.
No action was taken by the aldermen.

LONDON. Nov. ".The correspondent
of the Times at Belgrade in a dispatch
says:
"A complete change in the situation
here In the last few days seems to Justify
the anticipation that all Immediate dan
ger of war in the Balkans has been re
moved. This change is due to the Arm
attitude of the powers toward the im
practicable schemes of territorial com
pensation. The Crown Prince of Servla returns
from Russia as the harbinger of peace
and doubtless in the future will abstain
from bellicose utterances, the Russian
government having shown a determina
tion not to aid or countenance any effort
on the part of Servia and Montenegro to
set aside what has been accomplished or
to obtain territorial compensation by
force of arms."

fall out worse than before because of the

to use the de almost every week or ten

(o-opratfng with Eilers Piano House
in this grigantic movement, have decid
ed to materially increase the cash ap
propriation to be divided among1 the
successful contestants.-
INCREASED TO $23,000.
So Intense is the Interest manifested
and so favorably have these manufac

distributing $1S,0G0 as originally in
tended and announced, it has been de
cided to increase the total amount to
$25,000. This should be welcome news
to the thousands of contestants in the
Eilers Contest.

composed of the following prominent

pending the hearing before Judge Tur

show cause why the injunction should
rot be made permanent. Willoughby
B. Walling, secretary of the bank, who
Is said to have acted for the bank
in several deals alleged to nave been
made. Is made a co-defendant, as is
the Chicago & Milwaukee Electric
Railroad Company.
To uphold his claim of the unfitness of
the present trustees, Mr. Beaubien s com
plaint recites a lengthy list of allega
tions, citing spec 1 tic instances of alleged
irregularities and juggling of the bonds
detrimental to the financial interests of
the bondholders.
The object of the suit Is to establish
which have priority rights to the rents
and profits of the railroad the creditors
at large or the bondholders, not all of
whom are interested in the present suit
because, the plaintiff alleges, they are
deriving advantages not shared by Mr.
Beaubien and his fellow dissenters.
It is alleged that neither the bank nor
Mr. Walling has complied with the laws
of Wisconsin regarding the trusteeship
of the character involved.
The receiver certificates issued on Fed
eral Court order or completing the road
put a cloud on the bonds, greatly dam
aging their value, it is alleged.
It Is also alleged that Mr. Walling and
Joseph E. Otis, president of the de
fendant bank, have been and are in
close touch with A. C. Frost, working
with him on financial -arrangements and
giving him too free rein in violation of
Mie trust mortgage.
