Captains of precincts have reported a winning- throughout the city, and a great scarcity of Democratic . votes. Men who were known as avowed Independent supporters have been checked off and the reports we have will show that In proportion to the vote now cast, we will win. If the checking proves true , we are undoubtedly vic torious." ' At Mitchell headquarters In the Sher lock building the claim Is made that their forces will triumph over the Si mon faction all over the city. In some precincts, it Is admitted, the ' contest will bs very close. The smallest ma jority which the followers of Judge Carey in this campaign assert they will receive Is 14, In the Ninth precinct ; Charges of money being spent freely by ' the opposing- faction were heard from several, . Those present at . Mitchell headquar ters at I o'clock this afternoon were: Maurice Belnsteln, David Dunn, Charles K. Lord and P. A. MacPherson. Judge Carey was absent lending his personal AUTOMOBILE FIRE IS LATEST DANGER ; Fflrthe first time In the history of , Portland "the fire department was called upon last night to extinguish a fire In an automobile. Despite the fact that It was confined to a, very few feet of space, the fire raged for 10 minutes, ab solutely refusing to be conquered. .TJust before dark last night an auto mobile driven by a man whose name was not learned by the firemen, came by truck 1, otherwise known as fire headquarters. Just as It reached the front of the station flames burst from the gasoline tank, and for a time It was feared there would be an explosion. 1 1 The flames shot high in the air.

Dr. K. A. J. MacKenxle' per formed the operation. The condition of the patient this afternoon was reported as being favorable. Mr. and Mrs. Boyce came to Portland night before last from Wallace, Ida. Mr. Boyce has been ill for some time, but his condition is , not. considered alarming. The former president of the miners was one of the principal cham pions of the striking men during the SIX MORE WALK , OUT VIA The dull, grating noise heard about the halls of the police station this morning was the racket heard by the grinding of the Justice mill operated by Chief Hunt Six prisoners were freed by the chief, notwithstanding the fa that the findings of his kangaroo court are illegal.

(Journal Bpeclal Bcr-tr ) New York, March ,16. The local labor situation is assuming a serious phase. Twenty thousand men are now idle, and the. number may be Increased Ten thousand lithographers are likely to be locked, out before nightfall. The open- i shop policy and arbitration agreements are the principal causes of dissension. It is predicted that the disastrous strike of last summer will be com pletely overshadowed by the forthcom ing struggle, which-isr expected to cul minate in life or death fight between the employers and employes. SACBAKXHTO STBIZX, Sacramento, March 16. All the em ployes of the building trades council are out except the ' carpenters, electrical workers and tnlllhanda.

GIGANTIC STRIKE aid to the ticket In bis own precinct Shortly before S o'clock It was dis covered that the Simon men had gained possession of all the sample ballots In the Ninth precinct and County Clerk Fields was asked for those remaining at his office, to be taken Immediately to the scene of battle by David Dunn. It was discovered that only 20 ballots remained at the office of the clerk. "The Democrats are helping the Si mon people out all. over the city," said MacPherson. "Lord and I have made a personal canvass of the situation and find this to be the case. The contest will be close In a number of precincts." The Incompleted returns from all but six precincts In the city at :30 o'clock this afternoon shows that less than 60 per cent of the registered vote has been cast The report follows: Precinct No. 871; 4. 197; 8, 130; 7, 196; 8, 187; 9. 115; 10, 88; 11, 70; 12, 151; 13, 1S2; 14, 107; 15, 81; 18, 122; 17, 123; 18. 76: 19. 135; 20, 80; 21, 165;' 22, 81; 23, 128; 24. 112; 25, 105; 26, 98j 27.. 130; 28, 143; 29, 116; 81, 125; 82, 121; 33. 65; 34. 60; 38, 136; 39, 70; 40. 97; 42. 166; 43. 193; 44. 140; 46, 136; 46, 193; 47, 114; 48, 160; 49. 166; 60, 88; 61, 146; 62, 164; 63, 138; 64, 120; 66, 108; 66, 144; 57, 149; 58, 139. thought at first the fire would be quite easy to extinguish. But not so. Many a bucketful of water, combined with the rapid strokes of a large broom were re quired to feaie the flames. Finally, when the gasoline had all been burned, the fire died down and the danger was over. The firemen did their best, but It was . a new experience for them, and one which they do not care to have repeated. The engines of the automobile were ruined, and other damage was wrought It was necessary to bring another ma chine Into play to haul the ruined one away. During the progress of the fire a large erowd gathered, but all stood at a re spectful distance, when It was seen that the fire was In the automobile. , trouble In the Coeur d'Alenes. His rad ical 1 speeches were the cause of much bitter comment and are said to hava incited the miners' to many acts of violence. He advocated the arming of the miners and in one of his fiery ad- aressea, exclaimed: ' "The time for arbitration and peace Is past I hope to see the time in the not far distant future, when the tramp of 200.000 armed men will be heard In the Rockies.:' At the present time Mr. Boyce Is ex tenslvely engaged in mining and Is one of the principal shareholders in the Hercules property near Wallace, one of the richest mines in the Coeur d'Alenes. HUNT RATH their liberty, They simply walked from the Jail into the station, got what be longings were being held until they were released, received the blessings of the big chief, and sauntered on their way. "As long as the old man Is taking tne lawmto his own hands," said one, "why didn't he fix it so we could have some breakfast" But the chief is now too busy watching prisoners repair the city jaii, while hundreds of workmen about the city are anxious for work. liams visited the scene this morning. The latter has small hopes of being able to clear the sewer short of three aaysi Engineer Elliott, however, believes that the work will be completed this afternoon.

HOMELESS GIRL'S PITIFUL STORY XtOUXSS BEB1TABP BESOTTED 8T SB TSCTXYS HAWXET JSOX OAHO Of BOUOHS AT OCCXDESTAX? HO TXIi HAS X.OST HEB XEASOV A COTTOTBT GIB Ik - . - Louise Bernard, said by Detective Hawley to be from Prlnevllle, was taken into custody yesterday afternoon In a room of the Occidental hotel. She is saia to nave been so cruelly treated by a gang of men while at the place named that she has lost her reason. She will be recommended for the .Insane asylum. and her case will be acted on by Mu nicipal Judge Hogue. It is one of the most pitiable cases I ever knew of," said Detective Haw ley of the Boys' and Girls' Aid society. "The poor girl is but 18 years Of age, and never was very bright, it Is said, She came to Portland from Prlnevllle several weeks ago, and having no one to care for her, fell In with some rough companions. She had hardly any will power of her own, and was rapidly led astray. I learned of the case yesterday morning, and went to work on it imme diately. I located the girl In the Occi dental hotel, where she was lying In bed unable to care for herself. I brought her to the police station, where she was given attention, and was this morning able ' to get up. I will recommend to Judge Hogue tomorrow morning that she be sent to the. county court and adjudged insane. "I telephoned to Mrs. John Summers. postmistress at Prlnevllle, yesterday and made inquiry as to the girl's rela tives. I found that her father's pres ent whereabouts is unknown, and that her mother is absolutely destitute." An effort is being made by Detective Hawley to ascertain the names of the men said to have been implicated. STRONG REPLY The following statement to the 'public was prepared last night at a meeting of the Master Builders' association: It Is strange that the controversy be tween the honorable Lewis and Clark fair commission and the Master Builders' association has never been - fairly and truthfully stated by any of the papers. The Oregonlan of Sunday last, under the caption of "Agree on Peace," con tains a series of statements which are entirely. without foundation in fact First The committee of the Master Builders' association did not withdraw Its demands, and does not recede from the position that the provisions under which these contracts are to be let, are entirely unfair and arbitrary, 'and that the letting of all of tne work on one day will shut out all but the wealth iest contractors from bidding.: and by confining tne bids to a few will work against the best interests of the fair. It is not a -fact, r.s was pointed out repeatedly to Mr, Albert, the chairman of the building committee, that the master builders desire to change the plans. Such a thing was not thought of. All we want is to know what we are expected to do, without being compelled to submit, without recourse, to the ar bitrary dictum of a superintendent nor to an arbitration committee of the men who stand In the position of owners. and who would no doubt then, as they do now in the present controversy, ut terly refuse to settle a dispute on equit able grounds. The proposition that the honorable fair committee, be the sole arbiters of Its own controversies is worse than absurd. It Is the arrogant sneer of a person who feels himself in a position or unassailable authority. Mr. Albert states that as the commit tee is spending state money and not its own, it Would have ho reason to be un usually severe, or not to give fair play to the contractors. If that is the sentiment. why not expunge the clauses that are arbitrary and which everybody. Including some or tne members or Mr. Albert's own committee, admit to be arbitrary and one The position taken by Mr. Albert that the law compels them to adhere to the extraordinary condition under which the commission seeks to let out the contracts Is nothing but a subterfuge to escape the necessity of defending the Indefensible. The changes advocated by the master builders are not a part of either the plans or specifications of material and construc tion, but pertain only to the method of letting out the contract and the superin tendence, matters by law exclusively in the province or the commission. The ex cuse that the letting of the several build ings at short Intervals would cause delay is not pertinent. Such delay would be not more than 10 days at most, and the commission in this matter, as in the other, has full power, having reserved all lights necessary thereto in its call for bids. We feel that by the course adopted by the commission the .fair enterprise will suffer, the construction of buildings will be monopolised, opportunities for col luslon and favoritism will arise, and we deplore this situation exceedingly. J. B. BRIDGES, President GEOROEJ W. GORDON, Secretary. FAMOUS PEOPLE HAVE MET PORTER C, H. Porter, an Insurance man, was in a cynical mood. He had never been a newspaper man and as a consequence had never been shot at by Tracy or helped to solve the abduction mystery or little Eddie cudahy, or the strange case of Nora Fuller. But be was not to be outdone. "I've accomplished but . few great feats." he said, "but I've met and grasped the hands of over 6,000 people who were on the spot when "Wild Bill' Hlckok was shot Each one of the 6,000, nicked up the dead gun lighter. I think that the little saloon in Deadwood where Bill was killed must have been as big as the Auditorium In Chicago." LARGEST CASTING MADE IN OREGON Fifteen tons of molten metal were cast this afternoon by the Willamette Iron & Steel works Into the last half of the second fly wheel for the engines of the Portland General Electrlo com pany. These castings are the largest ever made in the state of Oregon and two of them compose the great fly wheels. . One of the wheels Is now set up at the works. :"'.':, The casting took blase at about t-.aa o'clock and was witnessed by a large number of invited guests.

Is a firm be liever in a fraternal temple at the Lewis ana Clark exposition. "The state of Oregon." he said this afternoon, "is as strong In proportion to the number of Its inhabitants, as re- garaa rraternal organisations, as any other state In the union. The lodge- men of this state have In the past con' trlbuted to the building of fraternal temples and they are entitled to one of their own. : -xne temple at the fair-will do as much toward building up and awaken ing Interest in the exposition as any thing that I know of." Mr. Langfltt yesterday viewed the site of the proposed fair. "Nature has certainly aided greatly," he said, "The natural advantages of the place are wonderful. The Interest shown in the fair is very encouraging. However, I must confess that before came west, my knowledge of what the fair was to be was limited. I looked upon it as some little Portland scheme, A mistake is being made, I fear, in the manner in which the fair is being ad vertlsed In the east .As to the fraternal temple, Mr. Lang' fltt declared he would lend it all the as sistance possible. He took luncheon' today at the Portland hotel, with Major W. C. Langfltt, engineer corps, United States army, a relative. Mr.' Langfltt departed at 3 o clock for Seattle. He will remain on the coast about 10 days longer. He came west two weeks ago, visiting San Francisco before coming north. GRAND JURY TO MEET TOMORROW The spring term of the federal grand Jury, convenes tomorrow. It is pre sumed ttiat the first cases to be taken up will be informations filed against Charles Cunningham, a prominent east ern Oregon sheepman; Judge George A. Hartman of Umatilla county, Joe Parkes of Pendleton and others charged with conspiracy to defraud the government in the acquiring of lands. Parkes ar rived In town last night, and with him came Col. James H. Raley, his counsel Judge Hartman Is expected in Portland tomorrow. District Attorney Thomas G. Halley of Pendleton and Judge John Balleray, who are to represent cer tain of the defendants, are expected to arrive in a few days. The complaints against Cunningham, Hartman and others grew out of the trial of Asa B. Thomson, ex-receiver of the land office at La Grande, who was tried and acquitted in the United States circuit court of soliciting bribes for the fraudulent entry of homestead claims. . . Charles Cunningham was the govern ment's chief witness, and he declared Thomson demanded from him, the sum of $50 each to pass favorably upon held- up claims. The prosecution will at tempt to prove that Cunningham has acquired many acres of graiing lands from the government in a fraudulent manner. County Judge Hartman and Joe H. Parkes are charged, with accept ing affidavits that they knew were false. Judge Hartman has indignantly protest ed against the action of the federal au thorities, and terms his arrest "fool ishness." MOTHER HEARS THE SAD NEWS The sad news that her little five-year-old boy was crushed to death by a Madison street car Monday night, was broken to Mrs. Matthew Vranlsan of 650 Market street, this morning by her husband. The mother, who has been 111 for some time, did not give way to her gnei, dui acceptea the misfortune with deep sorrow. The funeral will occur tomorrow af ternoon at 2 o'clock. The body of the uuy was removed irom Coroner Flnley's morgue to the home this morning "Un less I find some one this afternoon who tells a story different than the four wit nesses witn whom I talked this morning, l wm not now an inquest," said Coroner iniey. i saw Dr. James Wiley, Irv ing Nottingham, Marquam Prince, Mrs. L.

They say that the little fellow was running along by the track, and that he stumbled and fell The car was going very slow, they state, and when some one cried to-the motor man to stop, he brought his car to a standstill within two feet But even that was too late to save the boy's lira The motorman says he did not see the boy." i .

The. report reached here a few days ago that horses in tne vicinity of Susanvllle were starv lng ttj death. A number of Sumpter people are wintering horses In that sec tion, and Immediately upon receipt of tne report t. f, Kelly and Tom Taylor, Jr., son of the liveryman, were sent to Susanvllle to investigate the situation. They returned yesterday with a tale of suffering among the stock from want or reed. - Mr. Taylor has six horses at Bob Hut- ton's ranch 10 miles beyond Susanvllle. mere were 33 horses taken from Sumo ter last fall to winter at the Hamilton ranch, besides a number at other places ln the vicinity. Of this number, after riamg the range for three days with men familiar with the country, they succeeded in finding 13. all approaching on starvation, and most of them ln a condition too weak to be brought back. Two of Mr. Taylor's horses were found alive, one was dead, and the other three are still unaccounted for. Mr. Kelly found one of his. The horse, he says, when he left here last fall weighed fully j.fuu pounas. Dut tnat he was now a mere bag of skin and bones and would hardly weigh 700 pounds.. He says: There were probably 260 horses taken to this Immediate vicinity last fall to he wintered, and It would not sur prise me ln the least if half of them are not now dead, or will die, and the rest I know are ln a starving condition. Besides this there sre hundreds of cat tle which have suffered similarly. We saw dead horses and cattle on every side. Young calves fresh born were be ing devoured by coyotes, and their mothers were too weak to protect them. I nevev saw such a scene of suffering among dunb . creatures ln my life. It was the understanding In most instances that when the pasture gave out, or the snow mnde the grazing difficult, that tha atoek was to be fed hay. But the hay gave out early in the season, and the cattle and horses were turned out in the bills to shift for themselves." It Is quite probable that some of the owners of these starving brutes will bring suit- against the ranchmen for not taking care of the stock as they agreed to. UNDERTAKERS WILL , ALL BE EXAMINED Undertakers will be examined by the' state noara of health ln the office of the board Saturday, March 19. The sudden, decision on the part of the board to examine and license the un dertakers and embalmers of Oregon was brought about by a request from the Baggage Rasters' association.

The state cannot recover on them. I have known this fact for some time. If an attempt Is made to recover I shall certainly op pose it, with every chance of winning." This was the statement of Attorney W. T. Hume, ln reference to the bonds given in the case of Annie Pollard, who left the state under a charge of larceny. District Attorney Manning asserts that he will sue to recover from the bondsmen, but is dpubtful if the bondsmen can be forced to pay. Annie Pollard was accused of steal ing money from the room of a man in a north end lodging house. She gave bonds In the amount of 1,600 before Municipal Judge Hogue, her sureties being A. B. Burger, R. W. Patterson and Fred Tapkern. All are property owners. Hume will not state what errors were made by the officials unless suit Is brought. The district attorney says that the bonds may have been invalidated by the court procedure. "When the ease was first called the prosecuting witness was absent," said the district attorney. "When It again called Hume was 111 and unable to be present I was in the building, but not in the room. In the absence of counsel for the defense and for the pros ecution the case was continued. I am not sure this procedure invalidated the bonds and Intend to sue for recovery and make a test of it. anyhow." Another ground on which it u h.. lleved Hume will rely if suit Is brought is the fact that Tio bond was given In the higher court and only in the Justice court , CHARLTON TO GO TO HIGHER PLACE A. D.
