Captain John Reed, th owner of the vessel, got on - th craft and sailed away. He took. her. to Rainier! and then came back to Portland. When I asked about his escapade 'this morning the captain said: - , "The Fox will not be, brought back to Portland. I may take ner to the upper Columbia river and place her In com mission. - I took her away Just In order to save paying the watchman 14 a day for doing nothing. .-Any lawyer who understands his business "will "readily admit that I was Justified In my action. A few people In Portland are trying to persecute me. - As soon as I had taken the boat to a certain place where I knew she would be all right I returned to Portland. That I have not beea ar- rested since my return Is sufficient proof that I. have not done anything wrong.' Captain Reed would not say at what point . he-Jiad left his boat, but others who were down the river yesterday saw her at Rainier, The skipper Is very Indignant over his arrest last Friday and threatens a .lawsuit. ,. i ' ALONG THE WATERFRONT.

It was over so quickly th crowd had dis persed almost before It was realised that a man was wounded. Delino fell to the sidewalk while his assailant with the other Italians . sped quickly down the street. Dellno's com panion assisted him Into a near by s. loon, wher th police were notified and the wounded man was removed to St. Vincent's. One wound In the abdo men Is believed to have pierced his In testines. Detectives Hartman and Welch 'were assigned to the case this morning. They visited th Italian Section apd also itna nospitai. The wounded man Is unable to give a clear account of the affray, but declares that he snd a eompaalon were walking down I the - street when they stoppea to taiK witn the Italians. - Some one made a derogatory remark about Hungary and he resented It. he said.

''; ' Chris tmks Joys are marred 1 for some of the city hall statesmen by the recol lection that tomorrow the council's In qulsition Into the acta of the civil serv ice 'commission must be resumed. The rumor was current today that the cur tain was to be rung down with tbe farce still unfinished, the management being too much disgusted with the per formance to carry It to a conclusion. But such. an open confession of failure would be too . Ignominious - and the wearied actors are expected- take the stage once more according to announce ment .- - Tbe inquisitors hav employed the time since the session of last Tuesday la canvassing the malcontents In the police department for rumors, gossip, hearsay, or anything else which might be used, tp bolster up the '-attack on Captain Patrick Bruin. It Is said that they have even sent east for the record of Bruin's second enlistment In th United States army In the hope of find ing something which might contradict the testimony he bas given. . - r. It remains to be seen whether the council committee which Is conducting th investigation will call for the tes timony of Mayor Lane, the civil net-vice commissioners and Postmaster John Mlnto, who assisted In examining Pat rick Bruin for; a police captaincy. Ob viously all of these gentlemen should be asked to take tb stand if the in quisitors desire to get at all the facta. When D.

' ; Several members of the council hav expressed considerable feeling against the. attempts of ths county assessor, to keep the levy down, and have accused blm of interfering in the affaire of tbe city. The champions of a l.l-mfll tax for city purposes are of the opinion that th revenue derived would be sufficient to earns the city through It OC. besides providing funds for many improvements. This levy would give approximately $100,004 over snd above the cost of running the city government this year, after deducting the $117,000 Jo. pay for the bridges. The eounenmen" who favor a higher tax are of the opinion that $100,000, la not sufficient to provide all the addi tional Improvements necessary. -They have been planning for expending $160, 000 on the fire department including the running expenses. This lavish -ex penditure Is opposed by - the more con servative taxpayers, who argue that one half of the proposed Improvements should be made this year and the other half next ,- , -. . - - HEBREWS CELEBRATE; THE FEAST OF LIGHTS ' Jewish eongregatlona of - Portland celebrated Cbanukkah. pr the feast of lights, last night la their templea--Appropriate exercises were rendeeed by the children.
