DARING ARREST OF
THREE SUSPECTS
Police Make Sensational Raid
' on Lodging-House to Cap-
ture Thugs.
MAY BE TRAIN HOLD-UP MEN
Arrested Trio Answer I)escrlptlon of
Men Who Harp Committed Long
; 1,1st of Crimes in City Dur
.1' . ing the Last Month.
. Detectives and police officers failed
yesterday to disco. er positive con
necting link between the three yegrg
men. arrested at an early hour In the
morning by Sergeants Keller and
Klenlan and Patrolmen Arnold and
Potter and the holdup of the O. R. &
K. train Thursday night.
However, the officers claim that many
circumstances point to their guilt,
while they also assert that evidence
lias been secured which positively es
tablishes thoir connection with the
holdup of A. M. Hyatt's saloon. :9
Fifth street, early yesterday morning.
In which eight men were robbed, and
numerous other similar crimes. Among
the crimes charged against the three
yeggmen are the holdup of F. W.
I.utkeraeif's saloon. 49 Cnion avenue,
Monday night: John Carlson's saloon.
S4- Front street, Wednesday nlsht;
Hoffman's saloon. lnlon and Haw
thorne avenues, a month ago; Lutke
meler's saloon a month ago, and a
long list of other tjrlng crimes which
has caused a reign of terror in the
city for weeks.
Many victims visited the city jail
yesterday and positively Identified the
men as being the perpetrators of nu
merous holdups and robberies. None,
of the crew of the O. R. & Jf. train
that was held up. however, was taken
to the station, though It Is said they
will be requested to look at the sus
pects on their return today from their
regular run.
Credit to Police.
The men gave the names of Oscar
Johnson. Harry Benson and Chris
Bons. and their arrest was accom
plished In a highly sensational manner.
It Is generally regarded as one of the
best pieces of work in the history of
the department, and Is a red-letter
event at the time when not only the
department, but individual members,
were, receiving on all sides the most
severe censure.
Five hours after Hyatt's Fifth-street
saloon was held up and five men robbed
the three yeggmen were in Jail, and
evidence secured which, according to
the police, positively I established their
connection with the crime. Their ar
rest was due largely to the observa
tion of Patrolman S. S. Arnold and the
bravery of Sergeants Keller and Klun
lan and Patrolman Potter. In ihe eyes
of the department Patrolman Arnold
has redeemed himself after his unfor
tunate experience of being disarmed by
a "yeggtnan" several weeks ago.
t was late Friday night, an hour or
more after the holdup of the Fifth
street saloon, that Officer Arnold saw
a man cautiously enter the rooming
house at 159 H East Water street. His
manner aroused th officer's suspicions
and wMle deliberating upon what to
do he saw another man enter the place
in the same way. It was only a few
moments later that a third man en
tered. Patrolman , Arnold Immediately
notified the station, and Sergeants Kel
ler and Klenlan. With Patrolman Pot
ter, hurried to the place.
' Officer on Guard.
Arnold remained on the outside of
the building to prevent an. escape
through the windows or door, while
the other officers, after locating the
room of the three suspects, ascended
the stairs. The men answered the first
knock by cautiously opening the door.
It waa opened only an Inch or so, when
the --officers thrust their revolvers
through the crack and, throwing open
the door," crowded Into- the room, cov
ering the occupants with their weapons.
The men were Immediately manacled
and removed to the station. Upon the
persona of each, according to the of
ficers, were found various articles that
have been Identified by persons who
were victims of recent holdups, while
other similar articles. Including Jew
elry, were found in the room. One
of the men had In hl possesion a
watch on which was the Inscription,
"From Sister to Tom." Thomas Klllon
was one of the victims of the Fifth
street saloon holdup and Identified the
watch as belonging to hfm.
Men Defy Police.
The men were thoroughly defiant,
one. evidently the leadeV. declaring
that if he had his way the officers,
when they entered the room, would
have been sent to the morgue Instead
of returning to the station. The sus
pects retained their Insolent demeanor
during the day. each defying the of
ficers to. connect them with any crime.
Kven after their victims had Identified
them they asserted their Innocence.
Few efforts to connect the men with
Uhe holdup of the O. R. N. train
Were made yesterday. It is charged
bv uniform policemen that the "plain
clothes" detectives have lost Interest
In the case because the arrest was ac
complished by officers In uniform. A
number of special agents of the rail
road company went to the city Jail to
e and interview the men. but none
of the train crew did so. However,
it Is said this will be uone today.
The three suspects were arraigned
yesterday afternoon In the Municipal
Court. They waived examination and
were held to the grand Jury In the sum
of J2000 each.

i The sale of the Christmas stamps for
the Visiting Nurses' Association lo going
forward with fresh Impetus since the ar
rival of the second consignment of stamps
from Washington. With 300,000 of these
cheery little stickers available, the first
of the week the market for them has
been strong, and a marked lntejest per
vades, since Portlanders realize that every
penny spent In this Immediate vicinity
will be kept here to aid In exterminating
the white plague. Many communications

recently took the matter under advise

has charge of the Graduate Nurses'

nurses to serve in the bo.ith at the post
office until all the stamps are sold. Act
ing this week will be Miss Bessie Doyle,
Mips Anderson. Miss Cline. Miss Hadden.
Miss Forbes. Mrs. Shetto, Mrs. Butler,
Mies Harding and Mrs. Ei J. Campbell.
The committee in cnarge has inaugu
rated what is to be known as "Busi
ness Men's Stamp Day," to be observed
on next Tuesday. This Is to be a day
of special significance and interest inas
much as all business men In Portland
are requested to send or come to the
Postofflce booth after Christmas Ftamps,
to be u.ed on all circulars, bills, letters
and mail sent out on that day.
Sale Is for Men.
The idea was brought Into existence
through the seemingly prevalent idea on
the part of business men that this stamp
sale is a feminine fad, a charity scheme,
and since Christmas, with Its attendant
duties and pleasurqs. is almost here a
very great portion of Portland's public
has lost sight of the philanthropy and
genuine good back of this movement on
the part of the Visiting Nurses' Associa
tion, and is not giving it the co-operation
it merits. This campaign against
tuberculosis is the worthiest one that has
ever been instituted here.
The citv of Portland has an average of
10 per cent of Its death rate from tuber
culosis, which is considered high by
other citias with an average of 7 per
cent. ...
The Visiting Nurses' Association m its
..l- n( ttinriir.er the poor and
sick in their homes, finds an appalling
list of patients in various stages of this
insidious disease, and having no funds
with which to care for such cases, this
campaign has been instituted and all
moneys derived from the sale of the
stamps will go to hslri the cause..
Fund Is for Victims.
The average working person very
rarelv knows he is a victim of the
white plague until It has him in Its
clutches and it is too late. It is for
these cases that the association is ask
ing help. Part of the fund will be used
for the establishment of an open-air
pavilion, where patients, too far gone
in the long, wasting hours of the last
stages, may be taken care of with
comforts to the end. It is planned to
take them from the dull, sordid, poorly
ventilated homes, with poor food which
the sick body cannot assimilate, and
care for them in a bright, cheery at
mosphere, with good food and raiment.
There is no hope of personal benefit for
these cases, save from the standpoint
of humanity, but the benefit of those
with whom they come in contact is
tenfold.
Following is the text, clear and to
the point, which is exhibited on the
posters: '

It is earnestly hoped that every busi
ness man in Portland will take occa
sion personally to invest in some of
these cheery little stickers, since it Is
the small contributions of the many,
rather tnan the large contributions of
the tew, that are going to make the
campaign a success. If for any reason!
personal purchases cannot be made at
the booths, a telephone call at Main

SHOOTS TO SECURE MONEY
New York Inventor Wounds Broker
Before 1000 Curb Operators.
NEW YORK, Dec, 19. Henry B. Suy
dam, a mining stock broker, member
of the curb stock market and an Al
derman of Flalnfield, N. J., was shot
and dangerously wounded In his office
at 3S0 Broad street today by John C.
Lumsden, an Inventor who claimed that
Suydam refused to pay him money for
an invention.
Lumsden was arrested, after making a
desperate struggle with George A. Downs,
a young clerk employed by 6uydam, upon
whom the broker had called for help
when he saw Lumsden reach for his re
volver. Lumsden asserted that he fired
the shot in self-defense.
Suvdam's recovery is doubtful. He
made a statement to the Coroner in
which he said he was director In an elec

The struggle in the window of Suy

2C0 curb brokers and messengers. Aa the
v.ov on. forth, the brokers
thought it a bit of "horseplay," such as
is common among me uruneia
trading, and the eound of the shots gave
them their first warning that a tragedy
was being enacted. At the breaking of
the windowglasa the brokers rushed to
Suvdam's office and Lumsden was led
from the building, where 1000 men were
waiting in the street. The crowd surged
about the Inventor and for a few mo

in protecting their prisoner.

"3uvdam owed me $1550 and has owed It
for a'long time and I needed the money.
He gave me notes for money which he
had raised on collateral which I had
given him. I asked for the money fre

the expectation of getting it. I was told
to wait until after the market opened
and I sat down. Then three men jumped
on me and I picked up a pistol irom

MOST CORDIALLY RECEIVED
Miss Frances Batchelor, Local Ar
tisi. Knthuslasiically Received in
Concert at Wenatchee, Wash.
Miss Frances Batchelor, the pianiste, is
a. marvel. It is not often that piano
solos are genuinely enjoyed by the laity
of a mixed audience. But the young
Portland pianiste is the exception who
.1.. .1- -nim DnHitiirs lsst even-
Ing seemed unanimous in thehr enthusias
tic approval. The youth of the artist
was evidently only in. countenance and
general spriglulineas. In no respect was
her stage presence marred by the affecta
tions so often inflicted upon a long-suffer-ing
public. Miss Batchelor is evidently
dominated by the love of her art. No
room is left in her consciousness, for
egotism. She is sincere, direct, modest,
convincing. Her playing is authoritative.
She knows the effects she would produce
and she knows how to accomplish them
in her execution no smirking at her
audience. She assumes -that she has
something worth while to give and that
vou will gratify her earnest ambition by
honest appreciation. What wonder that
her performance met with an outburst ot
spontaneous and hearty applause.
In her first group Miss Batchelor gave
three selection by Chopin: Prelude op.

G minor. The second comprised a sere

Here is ample opportunity for any pian
iste to show caliber, and Miss Batchelor
fully measured' up to the demands made
upon her.-Wenatchee Daily World, De
