Robber Talked to Police Who
Had ' His, Description In'
' ; Their Pockets. :,
In the arrest of Charles K. Marchand
the police feel certain they have placed
behind the .bars the man .who held up:
and robbed three' persons Tuesday night
In 'Albert Hoaft's saloon, at 7S Hood
street- P. R.' Treau, one of the men
thought at first to have been held up, is
also under arrest-on the charge of being
an accomplice of Marchand. .Hoeft and
Finley positively identify Marchand as
the robber. ,.' .-
The ease Is most peculiar, an extra
ordinary feature being, the spy ears nee
at police headquarters . yesterday of
Marchand and his wife, who claimed that
some clothing' had: been stolen - from
their rooms at the- St Johns hotel. .At
this time detectives carried a desert d-
tlon ' of the highwayman in . their
pockets. .The theory, for this bold act is
that Marchand desired to satisfy him
self thst he was not under suspicion. .-
The arrest was made by Detectives
Hartman and Vaughn, -who say that
this morning they discovered Important
evidence tending to . clinch the ease
against Marchand. An automatic re
volver was uaed by the robberi iand the
detectives - assert they have discovered
thai. It was purchased some time ago by
Marchand. .,.-..- -.-
Both men were, taken IntaUhe police

V :4 HAS HOUSE WARMING
'.
Carripaign for Betterment
of
Conditions Will Be Carried '
. on by Members. "
AtTayhouae-warmlng given In the new
home of the Portland chamber of com
merge last evening, a civic Improvement
campaign waa Inaugurated by the ap
pointment of. a committee of seven to
formulate plana to arouse' public inter
est;! to divide the city Into districts snd
organise improvement clubs; to crests
a law eommlttee that shall, secure en
actment of needed ordinances and 'look
after their enforcement 'and to regu
larly retain a paid attorney to prosecute
offenders." .. , i
Speakers made enthusiastic addresses
In support of this plan. - President W.
H, Wheelwright in a welcoming ad'
dress to the guests and members of the
chamber, outlined tbs policy to be fol
lowed in the movement to clean up and
beautify the city. He said that no clt
lsen could fairly feel pride la a city for
which nature had done so much, so long
as ltst residents were content to leave
nature to do It alt The people of Port
land were' eloquent in praise of the
city's wonderful -natural beauties, but
they were extremely slow to Improve
and embellish those feat ores that nature
had supplied with a lavish hand.' He
praised the Individuals and societies
that had in the past made herolo efforts
to beautify the city of Portland, but
whose work had been rendered Ineffec
tual by the apathy or Indifference of the
people, who seemingly-were satisfied
to drink in the grandeur of ' distant
views, white overlooking unsightltness
closer In. He proposed to work a
change in these (Conditions by revolu
tionising public sentiment This work,
he said, could be dona through the
chamber ot commerce. ,. -
C.-B. S. Wood seconded Mai. Wheel
wright's suggestion, and said ha could
see in his mind's eye the proposed city
beautiful, wbosw Inhabitants, departing
to the heavenly shore, would make in
vidious comparisons on arriving at the
pearly gates; and who. on looking about
at the gold-paved streets and eternal
mansions, -would Involuntarily exclaim:
rwhy. this city Is not aa well -improved
as Portland." ' ;
He discussed industrial conditions and
denied the. right of railroad monopolies
to make arbitrary rates for transpor
tation. Economic justice and freedom,
be said, were the center of gravity
around 'which all human advancement
has revolved throughout the. history of
the world. .
Charles A. Emory, attorney for the
San Fraaclsco Citisens Alliance, tpoas
on the work of the alliance. He said
Its purpose wss not to disrupt union
ism, but to correct its abuses.' and pre-
iv.nl the Liiimiv-ww n wim". en
