Loses Chase Down River
for McAllister.
16,000-POUND FISH TAKEN
Despite Court's Decision Making
liegal Catching of Fish, Warden
Seizes Catch Sold to Portland
Company Trouble Is On.
Disregarding the decision of the
Circuit Court in Clackamas County of
the day before, which ruled that fish
ing: In the Willamette River at the
present time is leRal, Master Fish War
den McAllir-ter yesterday seized 16.000
pounds of fish which had been caught
near Oregon City and Bold to the Port
land Fish Company.
With the fish Mr. McAllister alro took
the RTisolino launch Bonnie and two
skiffs,' which contained the fish, and
put down the river with them, causing
the deputy sheriff, sent after him la
ter, a merry chase down the stream.
According to the law passed, in 1901.
the State Fish Commission would have
a right to close the Willamette River
and its tributaries at any time to pro
tect the fish in those streams, and de
claring this law Is still in force, the
Commission in January Issued an order
closing the Clackamas River and the
Willamette River north of Oregon City
to tishermen.
Iiegal Illght in Question.
This action resulted In a contest con
cerning the legal right of. the Commis
sion to take that action. The fisher
men's case came, up before Judge Gan
tenbein, who was sitting in Judge
Campbell's court In Oregon City. Fri
day Judge Gantenbein ruled that the law
of 1901 had been repealed by the pas
sage of the fish law of 1905. which or
dered the closing of the Willamette
Jtiver for fishing from March 15 to
April ir, and from June 15 to Novem
ber 15.
As soon as the decision had been an
nounced, fishermen began getting ready
for a night's fishing, and it was not
until after the fish had been sold yes
terday that any intimation of the plan
of Fish Warden McAllister to confis
cate the fish was made.
It had been contended, however, toy
Mr. McAllister, after the ruling of the
court had been announced, that he be
lieved the Circuit Court had gone con
trary to a ruling of the Supreme Cburt,
but this, view was not sustained by
the attorneys for the fishermen, who
denied that the Supreme Court ruled
on the validity of the law of 1901, but
simply threw the case out of court on
the grounds that it was not in equity.
Court Asked to Assess.
As soon as possible yesterday after
the' fish had been confiscated a com
plaint was drawn up, in which the
court was asked to assess Mr. Mc
Allister for the value of the fish and
the boats, amounting to J3500, and for
an additional $1500 for damages and
costs of the action.
While this was being filed, Mr. Mc
Allister and his deputies were going
down the Willamette. River as fast as
their cumbersome boats could make
headway, taking the fish with them.
Carrying the necessary papers. Dep
uty Sheriff Bulger was then started
out with John F. Meehan. president
of ' the Portland Fish Company, and
Joseph O'Connor, the secretary of the
company, to replevin the fish and
boats.
Although the officer and his com
panions were In a fast launch, they
were considerably In the rear of the
fleeing Fish Warden and his confis
cated property, and by the time they
reached Linnton Deputy Bulger con
cluded that the Fish Warden had
reached Columbia County, and he was
not certain that he would have a legal
right to serve his papers In that
county.
When he made inquiry by telephone
at the Sheriffs office in Portland, he
was told to go ahead, and if he failed
to get McAllister before the Columbia
County line was reached to hand his
papers to the Sheriff of Columbia
County. Then the Columbia County
Sheriff was asked by telephone from
the Sheriff's office in Portland to look
out for McAllister.
FrSHERMEX STILL AT WORK
Portland Salmon Seizure Does Not
Stop Oregon City Industry.
OREGON CITY, Or.. April 23 (Spe
cial.) The action of Master Fish War
den McAllister in confiscating eight
tons of fish at Portland will have no
effect on the local situation, for the
fishermen will catch salmon Just so
long as there is any market for
them.
The Portland dealers had launches
here last night to receive the catch,
which was good, one of the boats sc
ouring about 2000 pounds. The local
authorities. In the light of Judge Gan
tenbeln's decision, have so far made no
attempt to molest the fishermen.
ORR (JETS HEARIXG TCKSDAY
Man TTeld as Escaped Convict Will
Fight for Liberty.
Frank Orr. who is being held In the
city Jail, awaiting extradition to the
State of Washington on a charge of
being an escaped convict from the
Washington penitentiary. Is to have a
hearing on a writ of habeas corpus
Tuesday morning before Judge Morrow
of the Circuit Court. Orr's hearing
should have been on Friday, but the
court postponed it, and yesterday Chief
of Police Cox, through the District At
torney, filed an answer to Orr's- petition
The case of Orr is attracting unusual
attention In Oregon and Washington,
for circumstantial evidence tends to
prove that Orr could not have been In
custody at the time of the alleged, es
cape, while on the other hand his de
scription, even to moles and other
marks on his person, as well as his
facial appearance, proves him to be the
man wanted in Washington.
It Is understood that Orr will en
deavor to bring witnesses to prove that
at the time of the escape of George
Adams, supposed to be Orr's real name,
from the guard which was taking him
to the Walla Walla penitentiary, Orr
was a free man and had not been con
victed of any crime.'
For the crime of burglary, commit
ted In Tacoma. in October, 1908, Adams
was sentence November 1, of that year
to serve in the penitentiary an Indefi
nite period of , between one and 14
sears.

RRAXGBMENTS have been com
pleted for the attendance of a band
of Nez Perces Indians as one of the
main attractions of the Society Circus to
be given by members of the Portland
Hunt Club and Multnomah Athletic Club
in Rose Festival week in June. Details
are being completed with the Indian De
partment, and plans of the managers of
the big amusement feature of the holiday
week contemplate the participation of the
Indians in each of three performances.
The band of old Chief Tellow Bull will
he obtained, if possible, that leader of the
Northern Idaho redmen being the last
of his tribe to submit to the rule of the
whites. "
The Indians will be brought in on a spe
cial train, with their own camp equip
ment of wagons, ponies, dogs and para
phernalia. They will camp east of Mult
nomah Field, where they may e visited
by the public without charge.
In their .war paint and feathers the In
dians will take a leading part in the
parade of the Spirit of the Golden West,
as well as In the horse and vehicle pa
rade, which Is to be directly under the
supervision, of the Hunt Club, and which
this year will be perpetuated by moving
picture machines for exhibit in the East.
War dances, the hold-up of a Western
stage coach, pony races among bucksv
squaws and children, bow and arrow con
tests and every feature of Indian pas
times will be enacted. As it will be the
first band of Indians to bo seen In Port
land since the close of the Lewis and
Clark exposition, the event is attracting
unusual attention to the Society Circus.
Since the organization of the Rose Fes
tival celebration the Portland Hunt and
Multnomah Athletic Clubs have stood loy
ally by tne Festival management each
year, paying the expenses of their vari
ous efforts from their own treasuries.
' With the growth of the celebration and
a. consequent increase in expenses, de
mands upon the members have come
heavier year by year. For that reason
the Society Circus was incorporated and
will become an annual feature of the
celebration. Professor Robert Krohn, of
the Multnomah Athletic Club, has gen
eral management of the affair, and will
have a sufficient number of assistants
from among the society leaders of the
city. A small admission fee will be
charged.
Mrs H. C. Wortman is arranging for
the appearance of a class of children and
their favorite ponies In a series of races,
maneuvers and picture groupings, while
all the different classes from the ath
letic club will participate in the athletic
events.
Mrs. R. J. Chipman, Mrs. W. L. Wood,
Miss Mabel Lawrence, Miss Sallie Lead
better, Mrs. F. W. Buffum and Mrs.
James Nichols will ejiter and ride their
high-Jumping and well-trained thorough
breds in the hurdle races and leaping
events, which are a part of every pro
gramme. On the official programme of events the
Society Circus will afford amusement on
the nights when the Rose Festival organ
ization will ' not have parades on the
streets. They have been assigned the
nights of June 8 and 10, and the after
noon of June 11.
BOYS' HOME IS AIDED
BIBLK CLASS WILL GIVE CAN

Produced Tuesday Night to Help
Project of Y. M. C. A.
For the benefit of the boys' home that
la to be established by the Toung Man's
Christian Association, an entertainment
is to be given in the auditorium of the
Y. M. C. A. next Tuesday night at 8
o'clock, by Mrs. Ford Warren's Bible
class of the First Presbyterian Church.
The programme will consist of a comic
cantata, "The Spinster's Return." The
patronesses are: Mrs. W. H. Foulkea,
Mrs. W. M. Ladd, Mrs. H. C Campbell,
Mrs. I. Vanduyn, Mrs. A. S. Pattullo, Mrs.
A. A. Morrison, Mrs. Russell Sewall, Mrs.
MaoKay, Mr. Ford Warren and Mrs. R.
C. French.
"The Spinster's Return" was given by
the Bible class at the First Presbyterian
Church some time ago, and requests for
lu repetition have been so numerous that
It was decided to produce it as a benefit
for the boys' home project. It Is intended
later to give it at Vancouver, Wash., and
at several other places. More than 80
girls will participate. The cast is so
large that It will be necessary to en
large the platform of the T. M. C. A.
auditorium to make the production pos
sible. Mrs. GBarrle MacKay is to have direc
tion of "The Spinster's Return." Those
taking leading parts are: Misses Alice
Sprague, Bessie Christiansen, Bertha
Vantrees, Florence Harman, Myrtle Long,
Clara Sehurrnan, Harriet Tarwood, Evan

Crusol, Margaret Martin, Alvina La risen,
Haz-al Lee Shields, Clarice Lalsner
Lydht Robertson and Ethel Larsen, and
Mrs. P. H. Murdoch.
The. boys' ' home project was launched
some time ago by the T. M. C A. Its
purpose is to provide quarters for em
ployed boys who now find It impossible,
with the aaJ&riea they receive, to live In
wholesome surroundings. The enterprise
Is not a charity, for the boys will share
the expense of maintaining the home.
The T. M. C. A., however, is raising a
fund of J1000 to furnish the building.
Seven hundred doners of this amount has
been donated and It is expected that the
remaining $300, or at least a largo part
of it, will be raised by the benefit. A
large house is to be rented in which- 20
or more boys can be accommodated.

MILLION'S' TO HEAR
Rose Festival Widely Advers
tised Through Country.
RAILROADS TO PAY BILLS
Hill and Harrlmau Lines Plan Ex
tensive Cnmpnlgns That Will
Bring Portland to Notice or
Eastern Neighbors.
As the result of contracts Just en
tered into by the Northern Pacific Rail
way, the next Rose Festival will be
known to 12.600.000 persons through
out the United, States. General Agent
A. M. Cleland has placed advertising
with two Eastern magazines. In each of
which a quarter page has been secured.
It is the first time that the trans
continental railroads have even placed
Rose Festival advertising In . the
Eastern magazines. A total of 12,500,
000 will know about the forthcoming
Rose Festival through the Northern
Pacific advertising plan.
The Advertisement Is well-written
from the Portland viewpoint. At
Northern Pacific headquarters it was
said that an elaborate campaign of
publicity In behalf of the Rose Festival
Is in preparation.. The whole United
States will be covered and attention
will be paid to every Hill agency in
foreign lands by the general advertis
ing forces of the system.
HarrLman Lines Busy, Too.
While the Hill lines have taken the
lead; In giving publicity to the great
floral show, the Harriman system is
now busy getting Ub literature ready
for distribution.
E. L. Lomax, of Omaha, general pas
senger agent of the Union Pacific is
collaborating with the Northwestern
passenger traffic men of the same sy
stem in working out pamphlets, in
serts, slips and advertlsments that will
be scattered all over the country. A
special folder, of which 60.000 ooples
are issued, is ready for distribution.
The Harriman advertising department
will take space In many leading per
iodicals in this country and abroad.
Altogether, the plans or the Hill and
Harriman roaAs will give the Rose
Festival the most extensive publicity
that Portland! or any public celebra
tions bare ever had.
Advertising Free to City.
"The beauty of the whole thing,"
said President Ralph W. Hoyt yester
day, "is that It la not coating the
city of Portland a oont. Wo could not
secure for thousands of dollars the
advertising that the railway systems
are giving us for nothing1. I am con
fident that" what the transportation
companies are contributing would cost
us (50,000 at least. So far as I have
been able to gather, no public zneva
ment in this or any other Northwestern
city has been able to secure the free
and voluntary exploitation that the
Portland F.ose Festival Is getting."
The railroad systems centering in
Portland are planning an extensive
campaign of publicity tnroughout the.
country as the result of the low rates
granted for the Rose Festival. About
20 trunk lines are included In the
campaign of free advertising. Every
Initial line out of New York. Chicago
and the Twin Cities are embraced in
this movement.
POWER PLANT MENACED
Mystery In Leuk at Big Lake Reser
voir at Owetsjo.
Early last week water began rush
ing Into the power plant of the Oregon
Iron & Steel Company at Oswego, now
under construction, and Investigation
revealed the fact that the waters from
the big lake reservoir were escaping
In some way. The flow was so heavy
as to put a stop to all work but was
not great enough to cause the res
ervoir to empty rapidly In order to
resume operations, It was found nec
essary speedily to empty the reservoir
and for that reason a large opening
was dynamited In the side and from
this the waters are rushing rapidly so
that within a week it will be empty.
Not until then will It be possible to
determine the cause of the flow Into
the steel plant. It Is possible that
some obstruction has been wedged Into
the gates In the bottom of the reser
voir, so that they could not be entirely
closed, although there are rumors that
the dam had been maliciously dyna
mited and wrecked. The flooding of
the new plant has caused no serious
damage to machinery but it has put a
Stop to all work

of an auto livery, against John Plunkett,
agent of the' Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany, to enforce payment of a bill of

were served upon Mr. Plunkett yesterday
by Constable Wagner. In the complaint
It is stated that Plunkett wrote his I.
O. U. for $50 one night after an ex
tended trip to the Seven-Mile House, con
ducted by Mabel Sphere, on which he
was accompanied by Dan O'Brien, the
fighter and other friends. This was on
March 28. On March J8 he secured the
use of the auto again, making a round of
the saloons of the city, for which the
charge was Ho. Both these bills he had
refused to pay.
