FOUND GUILTY
EOT EL APPEAL
T. W. Parker :of Deer Lodge, Moat,
was found guilty by a Jury . in the cir
cuit court this morning on the charge
of uttering a forged check last Novem
ber 16. The Portland hotel cashed the
check. Attorney B. P. Welch, for Par
ker, from the opening of the case until
the Jury left the room, fired a constant
volley of objections, exceptions and
complaints at Judge Frazer.
Attorney Welch said when the cass
was called that he had not yet suffi
ciently prepared himself to allow him
to make, a just defense and that in the
Interests of justice a postponement
should be granted. Deputy District At
torney .; Spencer remarked that the case
was one that was all on the surface,
and that the attorney need not be trou
bled about hi defensor as therewas
none available anyway. - Judge Frazer
overruled the plea for more time.
The only witnesses summoned were
those for the state. Ralph T. McMillan,
cashier in the Portland hotel, testified
that on the morning of November 16
he had cashed a check of $65 presented
by Parker, who had been Introduced by
Head Bellman- McFadden. Mr. McMil
lan stated that the check had been
drawn against the account of Wadhanis
A Kerr Bros. on the First National
bank. : He added that after, receiving the
money Parker had at once disappeared
and had left the hotel without going to
the room assigned, him. -Thomas
McFadden said that he knew
Parker and his family in Deer Lodge,
Mont He had vouched for him at the
office. . "I knew his folks were as good
as gom and said so," concluded Mc
Fadden. . -
, Detective Day told of Parker being
arrested in Montana, for another of
fense and of his Identification and ulti
mate delivery to him.
"I woke up and he was gone," said
Day In explaining how Parker had made
his escape front the train during Day's
nap. The escape was made near Ar
lington, Eastern Oregon, and Parker
was not recaptured for several days.
The detective also stated that Parker's
mother had offered to settle with Port
land people who had lost by her son's
forgeries.
The . defense had no witness to pro-
dues and moved the dismissal of the
case, incethe .irosecution.. had not
shown that Parker knew the oheck was
forged when he presented it at the Port
land hotel and had also failed to show
that the firm of Wadhams & Kerr Bros.
ever refused payment of the check. The
court did not believe the objections were
material and after the exoeptlpns of the
defense . had been noted the case was
given to the Jury, the defense making
no plea. f " -, v
The Jury spent half a minute in the
jury room and then filed in and returned
a verdict f guilty. , The defense has
five days . to show-cause for an appeal
and will ask for this on the numerous
exceptions taken to the ruling of the
court .' - . .
HOBOS ROB FREIGHT .
TRAIN ON 0. R. & N.
The Dalles. Or., Jan. Sl. Chief of
Police Wood of this city arrested' two
hobos here Thursday for offering for
sale some Fhoes to S. P. Conroy, a local
dealer, and to a second-hand store. The
hobos had their camp about, two miles
above the city, whither they went when
they could not sell the shoes, and. it
was here Wood captured them. For
some time the merchants here have at
various times been short on shipments
and could' not account for the shortage,
but how it is known that the frequent
robbing of freight cars between Pendle
ton and Portland was the cause. As late
as a week ago a case or, shoes, was
taken from a car near Pendleton and
these the hobos had In their possession
and probably belong to the case taken.
The hobos gave their names as Fred
Huston and John Whiteside. They said
the way they obtained the shoes was
that a case of shoes fell off the train
rear Pendleton. Mr. Wood telpphoned
to the O. R. & N. detectives, Riley and
Fitzgerald, of Portland, who: have ar
rived. In capturing Huston and White
side, Mr. Wood has done the O. R. & N.
company a great -favor, as the oc
casional stealing-from 'freights has
caused no end of trouble to the railroad
company. -'-'. .; ,, '

It were ordinarily easy to secure beer
after hours in the Alcazar, . and the wit
ness, stated she bad never experienced
any trouble.
Then.' District Attorney Manning took
UP the Issue and the foregoing evidence
was secured. No questions were asked
as to whether other saloons In the north
end were also accessible after hours, but
the witness in her replies expressed by

any time In Portland.

ELEVATED ROAD FOR
EAST OAK STREET
, Councilman 'Sharkey raises, a highly
interesting point tit connection with ap
portioning the assessment tot an' ele
vated road. In a minority report on the
East Oak street Improvement, "Whlchi be
filed yesterday at the session of the -eity
council. ,..,...,
The . Ladd estate owns . property, on
both sides of the bridge, and wants the
assessment reapportioned so that the
tax will be distributed among the peo
ple who petitioned for the roadway.
The Improvement was made under the
charter of 1898, before the present char
ter went into effect, and Mr. Sharkey
holds that the costs 'should bo paid as
provided for In the original charter.
The three other members of the com
mitteeMessrs. Rumelln, Bentley and
Zimmerman signed a majority report,
recommending a reapportionment. Mr.
Sharkey says in part: '
"The petition for the Improvement of
the street was circulated under the
charter of 189.8, which provided that
the cost of an Improvement should be
assessed upon the property affected and
lying within 100 feet of the street, and
was signed by a majority of the tax
payers. . Borne of the property-owners
not represented on the petition tried to
defeat the improvement, but failed. The
ordinance providing for the Improve
ment was passed under the charter of
1898, and the contract was awarded un
der that charter. The property-owners
who petitioned for the Improvement had
every reason to believe that the assess
ment would be apportioned under the
charter of 1898, and this provided that
for elevated roadways the assessment
could be apportioned. in a manner dif
ferent from an ordinary street improve
ment by . giving notice thereof in the
resolution of Intention; but no such no
tice) was given and consequently it must
be inferred that It was not the intention
that it should be apportioned in any
other manner than an ordinary street
improvement"

Ada Morris, who was left an orphan
by the Heppner flood last June, but whose
tiny life was miraculously saved, has
been ' placed in a good home through
Superintendent Gardner of-the Boys' and
Girls' Aid society. The child was turned
over to th society last week by people
who had been caring for it since the
catastrophe. Following the publication
of the story In the local papers Super
intendent Gardner received at least 25
applications . from well-to-do .families
throughout the state asking that they
be permitted to adopt the baby. But tt
had been sent out before the story was In
print. However, the applications are
kept on file, and in time it is 'possible
that children will be found for those
on the waiting list
"I guess I'll have to get a carload of
babies from Heppner," said Mr. Gardner.
"They seem to be very popular." -

Iron, steel rails, fish poles, and ce

Portland by the French bark Marechal
de Turenne,. which arrived in port yes
terday from Antwerp by way of Tort
Los Angeles. Itemised, it Is as follows:
908 steel rails; 1,988 flange rails, 197
bundles of flshpoles, 8,043 bars of Iron,
411 bundles of iron, 800 steel rails,
weighing 68 pounds to the rail, and
1,298 casks of cement
..The bark is still in. the stream, but
will go alongside the Mersey dock as
soon as the berth is vacated by the
Italian ship Cresslngton, which will be
in a day or two. The cargo Is consigned
to Balfour, Guthrie & Co.
The Turenne is the only French ves
sel now In port, but there are others
enroute and likely to show up at any
time. The La Fontaine will probably
be the next arrival. On November 8
she was sighted in 55 degrees south and
84 degrees west a. steamer having
reached San Francisco a short time ago
making this report Since then she has
been taken off the overdue list. , Until
recently reinsurance on her warn quoted
at 10 per cent She is now out 19S
days from Antwerp with general cargo.
There is no change In the local charter
situation. Exporters claim that vessel
owners are holding "back for an im
provement of rates, and the farmers
are asking too much for their wheat
As a result there is nothing doing In
their Jlne. The only disengaged ship in
port Is the Red Rock. She is being of
fered at 21s 3d, with no takers. Her
t gents say It is only a matter of a
hort time when the rate asked for
wUl be paid.
