Agnes O'Connor Ingram to Be
come City Executive's Wife
at Quiet Ceremony.
jSTOftE or
The Dawn of Spring 'Tis Here
JUDGE MORROW TIES KNOT
MAYOR
RUSHLIGHT
Bride Is Daughter of John O'Connor,
Prominent Stockraiser of John
Day Valley Trip to Honolulu
In Honeymoon Flans.
Nearly all the elements of romance
enter Into an event which will take
place at the new home of A. G. Rush
light, Mayor of Portland, this morn
ing, when Agnes O'Connor Ingram win
become the wife of Mayor Rushlight.
The ceremony will be performed by
Circuit Judge Morrow, and will be a
simple home affair, with only a few
Intimate friends present.
Miss Katheflne O'Connor, sister of
the bride, is to be mald-of-honor. E.
R, Campbell, her nephew, will act a
best man. Besides the principals and
Judge Morrow, few others will sit
down to the wedding breakfast, which
will be served Immediately after the
ceremony.
Officials Not Invited.
Not even Councilman Baker, presi
dent of the Council, who will be Acting
Mayor during Mr. Rushlight's absence,
has been invited, and the Mayor's pri
vate secretary, George K. McCord, is
another who will not be among those
present at the happy affair.
The Mayor's performance in taking a
wife at this time, with a honeymoon
trip of two weeks and possibly longer,
is regarded as remarkable in that it
is done In the face of an Impending
municipal campaign in which he Is
momentarily expected to announce
himself as a candidate for re-election.
But politics has nothing to do with
this story. It has been thrown to the
winds, and romance has been given
free rein.
Bride Is Oregon Woman.
Mr. and Mrs. Rushlight leave this
afternoon on the Shasta Limited. They
will tour California, and a trip to the
Hawaiian. Islands are among their ten
tative plans. In case they make the
voyage to the sunny islands, the Mayor
will keep in touch with Portland muni
cipal affairs by wireless.
Mayor Rushlight is a widower, his
first wife having died about four yeaTS
ago. His bride Is an Oregon woman,
having been born at John Day. Her
father, John O'Connor, is a prominent
Ftockraiser of the John Day district.
She has been a resident of Portland
for several years, and although of a
retiring, home-loving disposition, has
taken some interest In various chari
table works.
If they do not make the Hawaiian
trip, they will be absent from Port
land about ten days or two weeks.
CATTLE QUARANTINE IS OFF
Lake and Klamath Cattle Countries
Free of Scab Now, Is Report.
After a period extending over two
years, the quarantine on cattle In
Klamath and Lake counties is about to
be removed. Two years ago an out
break of scab occurred among the cat
tle belonging to a certain ranch In
Lake County, and quarantine was im
posed. Owing to the fact that these
cattle had been roaming about in
Klamath county as well and had Inter
mingled, Dr. J. F. Morel, the State
Veterinarian, Imposed strict quarantine
on all the cattle of both counties, and
Inspection had to be held not only by
the county but also by the Federal
authorities before any could be re
moved. Dr. Morel yesterday sent a letter to
Governor West asking for official re
moval of the ban, both for intra and
interstate movement of the- animals,
and the actual proclamation is but a
matter of a few days.
For the last six months the farmers
of the two counties have done their
best on account of the cost of Inspec
tion to get the quarantine raised, as
recently no symptoms have been dis
covered in any of the cattle whose re
moval was desired, but Dr. Morel
wished to wait until he was assured
beyond all reasonable doubt that every
trace of scab had been obliterated.
WILLIAMS STARTS HOME
Coinntitecinan Says He Has Hope for
His Recommendations.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Feb. 1. National Committee
man Williams left for Portland tonight
and expects to arrive about Februarj
6 or 7. Mr. 'Williams said before leav
ing that he had accomplished every
thing he had in mind when he cam)
to Washington, as all the appointmeuts
he recommended, with the exception of
Harold T. Hopkins for register of the
land office at The Dalles, have been
sent to the Senate. Hopkins, he ex
plained, was recommended at the re
quest of Representative-elect Sinnott,
and Mr. Sinnott will take up with the
President the protest of the Interior
Pepartment hased on the fact that
Hopkins is not a lawyer.
Whether or not those men who have
br-en nominated will be confirmed Mr.
Williams would not venture to predict,
but he hopes that toward the close of
the session some of them will get
through. He believes there Is a possi
bility that the Democratic filibuster
may let down just before adjournment,
and if any civilian appointments are
confirmed he believes some of those
from Oregon will be on the list.
CAR ROBBER IS HUNTED
Police to Make All "Characters"
Give an Accounting.
Efforts of the police yesterday to
get some trace of the single-handed
robber who held up a Council Crest car
early yesterday morning and robbed
the conductor, were entirely fruitless,
though all departments of the service
were warned to be on the lookout for
him.. 'Such description as the car crew
could furnish Is the only trace of the
man in the possession of the police and
it is far from satisfactory.
With three crimes of violence re
ported as occurring Friday night, the
police are on tiptoe of expectation of
something breaking in the near future
and stringent precautions are being
taken to exert a check on all men who
cannot give good account of them
selves. The number of crimes here
during the progress of the Winter so
far has been surprisingly small, par
ticularly when contrasted with reports
from other Coast cities. .

BANK PROBE IS ASKED
GRAJTD JURY. TO INVESTIGATE
AMERICAN BANK & TRUST.
State Examiner Wright . Requests
That Affairs of Suspended Insti
tution Be Surveyed.
The affairs of the American Bank &
Trust Company, which suspended busi
ness December 18, 1911,'. by order of Will
Wright, State Examiner of Banks, are
to be investigated by a Multnomah
County grand Jury. The Investigation
will be made by the February grand
Jury, District Attorney Evans said yes
terday, . and at the request of Mr.
Wright, from whom Mr. Evans has se
cured a letter asking that it be done.
"This la all I am able to say about
the matter at present," said Mr. Evans.
"I have no knowledge or intimation
that there was criminal mismanage
ment of the bank. The communication
from Mr. Wright merely advises an In
vestigation and be does, not commit
himself as to what may or may not be
discovered."
George J. Cameron, Mr. Evens', pre
decessor, frequently declared that the
reason he bad not undertaken the work
of Investigation was because Mr.
Wright, who was In charge of winding
up the defunct Institution; had re
quested him to defer action until he
had concluded with his work.
The bank has paid a dividend of 45
per cent and It Is expected that there
will be another dividend. Efforts on
the part of G. L. McGlbbon, cashier, to
reorganize the Institution proved un
availing. The dividend of 45 per cent
as held up twice by Circuit Judge
Jcavanaugh on McGlbbon's assurances
that he could put the bank back on Its
feet. Mr. Evans has been asked by Mr.
Wright to confer with Sidney J.. Gra
ham, who was Mr. Wright's legal rep
resentative In winding up the affairs
of the bank.
The American Bank & Trust Com
pany was capitalized at 150,000. Its
directors were Samuel Connell, F. H.
Goudy, Charles J. Bernard, G. L. Mo
Gibbon and C. W. Miller. Mr. Connell
was president and Mr.' McGlbbon was
cashier. There were 2200 depositors
with a total of $179,000 to their credit
when the bank closed Its doors. Of
this $29,000. was In the savings de
partment. Physicians to Banquet Harry Lane.

BUILDING MAY BE PUSHED
Commission Asks $180,000 to Com
plete Supreme Court Annex.
SALEM, ' Or.. Feb. 1. (Special.) Act
ing upon the estimates furnished by
State Architect W. C. Knighton, the
State Board of Public Building Com
missioners has recommended to the
Joint ways and means committee that
approximately $180,000 be. appropriated
to -complete ana iurnisn tne new su
preme Court annex to the State Capitol.
The last session "of the Legislature
authorized the acquisition of the land
and set aside the money for the com
oletion of the exterior of the structure.
The building is said to be one of the
handsomest and most substantial cunn
ings in the state. The outside shell Is
practically finished and It is probable
that there will be a short cessation of
work until the money becomes avail
able, approximately 90 days after the
session closes.
The Supreme Court is extremely
anxious for the completion of the work,
as the present quarters of the state
legal department are cramped and un
satisfactory. The State Library is
threatening to overflow and the House,
of Representatives complains of the
