dock to catch all the droppings. Kern
at first demurred, but thla morning did

The longshoremen were rejoicing over
this turn In affairs, stating that it only
added greatly to the expense under

One of the moot Interesting features
In connection with th coming presen

the M.iriiuani Crand theatre next month.
Is I h- fact that It was originally staged
by Hen Teal, formerly of Portland. HI
brother la J N. Teal, a lawyer if thl.
cly Hen Teal formerly practiced law
in this city.
It was In 1S99 that "Hon Hur" was
drama.t I ted hv William Young. Then
came tlie tremendous task of putting It
on the stag. It was by far the moat
difficult problem that any stage man
sgM had yet been asked to solve, bu
Mr Ten I took the material handed him
by the author and moulded ft Into shape,
pruning and altering until he had sc
oured the desired effect. HIh work la
tot only beautifully artistic, but It Is
very remarkahia because of th circum
stances tinder which It was accom
plished. Mr. Teal hsd been engaged all sum
mer In producing "The Roger Rrot here
in Wall Street" and "Chris mid tht
Wonderful Lamp," and without any
preparation, only alx weeka before rlil
first night's performance, he was called
on to stage "lien Hur." This meant
that he must Instruct the actors iu
every bit of stage business. It took a
man with an active brain and great
genius. During the allotted time he
brought the play together Into one har

FJarl. Nov. 13. The chamber of depu
tes today ordered an inquiry Into the
charges made by Labor! In the recent
Humbert-trial that members of the gov
ernment were implicated
"It certainly seems foolish for the
city to rush the letting of the contract
for a $400,000 bridge when the title to
one of the approaches, of that bridge Is
In litigation," said Councilman Bentley
this morning. "There is a contest now
pending in the supreme court Involving
title to the approach to the docks under
the Morrison street bridge, but the
plans for the new viaduct make this
appear to be part of the roadway leading
to the bridge.
'I tried to get from City Engineer
Elliott this morning a complete estimate
of the cost of the bridge, but failed to
get an itemized statement that was
nearly complete. Mr. Klllott estimates
the cost as follows: Steel required,
8,800 tons, which would cost, erected, at
present prices, $300,000; sub-structure,
$60,000; paving, $12,500. lie omits tho
cost of the approaches, the flooring and
tho piling protection for the center pier.
The total of his estimates without these
Is $408,500, or $8,500 above the appro
priation. Th estimates, however, are
all -too high.
"As to the need for haste in building
the bridge, I am In sympathy with that
I want the bridge built as quickly as
possible, but there Is too much haste
In this case. Mr. Elliott told mo that It
would take 20 days to work up a plan
and make the proper estimates. If that
is so, and I think 1t Is, what chance
has an eastern firm that may desire to
bid on the bridge? I want full, fair and
open competition in the bidding for this
bridge, and the time allowed, 30 days,
13 absurdly short. The city Is entitled
to the best it can get for Its money. If
the contract is let In November nothing
can be done" until February, for the
builders must wait until the January
freshet before commencing work."

HOTEL M'CLALLZB LEASED.
Roseburg, Or.. Nov. 13. The lease to
the Hotel McClallen, one of the best
nown hostclries In the state, today
was purchased by John R. Sutherlin for
12,000. He assumes prepretorship.
"The shooting galleries are licensed.
How can I take away their licenses? It
is the city council that gives them per
mission to run. However, I will se
that there is no bunko carried on. if
there has been any."
Chief of Police Hunt thus expressed
himself In regard to bunko shotlng gal
leries. Although less than two weeks ago an
emphatic denial came from the police
department to the statement that bunko
games were being operated In Portland,
the proprietor and two "steerers" of a
shooting gallery were arrested late yes
terday afternoon.
W. A. Armstrong and Patrick Roach,
the "cappers," and E. Stevens, the pro
prietor, stayed in the city Jail over night
charged with larceny. Their gallery,
near Third and Gllsan streets. Is closed
today because there Is no one to operate
It, but the other places where the same
games are said to be carried on are
still doing business.
Chief Hunt and Deputy District At
torney Adams Inspected the galleries
this morning.
The complaining witness in the pres
ent case is Jacob West, a young Fin,
who says he was swindled out of $21
while shooting at Stevens' gallery yes
terday. He told his story In the police
court rthls morning as he had related it
to Patrolman John Goltst who closed the
the gallery yesterday afternoon. West
has been working at Stella, Wash., but
came to Portland to spend a few day. -
The gallery in question used smoke
less powder. If the marksman pierces
a tag he is entitled to a prize marked
with a similar number. It is said that
each tag has two numbers so that each
shot can be made either a heavy winner
or loser.
Onu man is said to have lost $40 yes
terday but would make no complaint.
After being swindled West still had
more than $100 left.
When West started to shoot he was
charged 10 cents but failed to win any
thing of value. It was explained how he
might have won $5 by hitting the right
tog. The next, shot cost him 26 cents
and he came very near winning a $10
prize. Then he Invested 50 cents but de
cided to quit. Then the "cappers" told
him he would lose all he had Invested
and one asked to be permitted to take
West's place. This was refused by the
proprietor as unfair. Then they" put up
money ror a 10 cent shot and asked West
to shoot for them. To his surprise he
won l for the cappers.
This good fortune caused West to
t-ike the bait and he continued paying
and falling to win anything of value
until he had lost $21.
Patrolman John Goltz noticed, the
crowd at the gallery and he Investigated.
He heard West's story and first arrested
Armstrong and Roach in nearby saloons.
Later Stevens was also taken Into cus
tody. Although he Is declared to be
the proprietor, the license for the place
is In Armstrong' name.
When the case was called this inornlns
pleas of not guilty were entered by the L
three defendants, each of whom was
charged with larceny. The cases were
set for tomorrow. Stevens' ball was
fixed at $400, and that of the others at
$100.
A suspicion that everything was not
right win aroused when West announced
he could not be present to morrow as he
intended to leave for Europe tonight.
Judge Hogue told him he would Iobc
his $50 ball and when he declared he
dldnt care the court Increased it
$1U0. -

B. Campbell, assistant traffic director
of the Southern Pacific, arrived this
morning from San Francisco with his
family on tho morning Southern Pacific
train and at once went to the Portland
hotel. He made a round of the South
ern Pacific and O. R. A N. office and
during the morning was In conference
with A. L. Mohler of the latter company
In his office at the headquarters of the
road.
Mr. Campbell refused to give any pub
lie statement at this time. He said:
I have only Just artlved in the city
and must Investigate before forming an
opinion. I will be here several days.'
W. C. Francis of the City Retail Lum
ber association said that no conference
had yet been arranged with Mr. Camp
bell, but that the lumbermen, or their
representatives, would undoubtedly meet
him while he was in the city and that
the conference might come tomorrow,
but would be more likely to be delayed
until Monday, as the traffic manager
would desire, to consult local officer of
the Southern Pacific and O. R. N. and
learn their views before granting an in
terview. Meanwhile the lumbermen are
gathering data to make a strong show
ing to Mr. Campbell. '
Mr. Francis has received many letters
from about the state on the car short
age. These letters were solicited by Mr.
Francis. From the number of letter
received and the statements generally
made, Mr. Francis feels safe in con
cluding that the entire state, com
mercially, is aroused.
Among the letters produced was one
from an interior merehapt who stated
that for four months he had had a
request Tn for 35 cars. He said that
up to November 5 he had received one
car and that since that time he had
secured four more. Another shipper of
grain said that they had been unable t
secure any through rate to California
points and stated that the Southern
Pacific had refused to grant them cars
for such California business and com
pelled them to use the local rate or
none. As this amounted to $26 a ton
for oats, which Is somewhat mora than
the rate to Hamburg. Germany, and
several times the New York rate by land
or sea, the firm had been compelled to
refuse all orders from California.

tened for two hours to the captain, and

that further investigation should b
made by them as a basis for a report
to tne chamber of commerce.
