I mn.iani.ioiin it.i.MXt.lii.ii Delegates to Oregon Degree of Honor. I would rather believe John Conrad's word than the word of some counclK men Councilman M. J. Priscoll. I voted for the transfer of Conrad's license because Urlscoll as a member . of the Big Ten asked me to Council man George L. Baktr. If the council seeks to revoke the licenses of the saloonkeepers who are not worthy of holding a license, why do the members not revoke the Ilcenseq of the dive keepers in the nor'h end who are running places ten times worse than Bouthlier could have in. me noara of Trade building? CUainullnrin George B. Cellars. V These and many other sensational statements were made by the council men this morning when the transfer Of the liquor license of E. H. Ppranger. 40 Sixth street, to F. X. Bouthlier in the Board of Trade building came up for consideration. After debating the proposition for more than an hour, the members adjourned without taking ac Uon. The debate arose over the action of Councilman Wills in asking permission to withdraw his name from the com mittee report recommending the trans- ' fer after the report had been adopted. . Wills stated that he had received In formation that John Conrad was con nected with the place and thrt he wished to reconsider action on the transfer. Trouble Starts. V Immediately the council was in a tur moil. Drlscoll arose and asked him . where he got his Information and when Wills said that he had nothing defi nite, nrlscoll stated that he did not believe In the kind of a game that the ': majority party was pursuing and fur ther that he did not believe in persecut ing a man. . , , Drlscoll. "He Is down and out broke. r .. , . -..K H In T rii-t believe in such a game. Give every man a fair chance to make a living and that is all that you are expected to do. I stood by Conrad because I believed him to be honest and because I be lieved that he was being persecuted. I till believe the same, but -if you or any other person can snow me tnat Conrad has anything to do with the sa loon to be Installed In the Board of trade I will vote to revoke the license." Baker then arose and said that even If Conrad did not own the place and Bouthlier did there was enough In th? police records to warrant the council not granting Bouthlier a license. Other members were on their feet trying to be heard on the question. ai:d the meeting commenced to resemble a nuffraglsts' gathering. Rushlight final ly was heard above the rest who were demanding the floor and said that he lino u--eu nniiuru vwr. iihh.-it-i i'j oun- cllman Dunning and asked Iunnlng to explain to the council what he knew In regard to the transfer. Transfer a Bit Shady. In the temporary quiet that followed Dunning stated that lie had known Bouthlier for many years and that he was all right. Before he could go much further Belding got an opportunity to talk, and said that he had visited' the naloon In the Board of Trade building and that he talked to a man who was t . there at the time. Frm the conversa tion with the man, Belding said that he was satisfied there was something shady with the transfer. "This man told me." said Belding. "that the fixtures were those that be longed to Conrad when he operated the Pullman cafe. I also learned that when the person who owns the saloon en deavored to hHve the fixtures repaired that a large company engaged In such ou.swie.-s rerusen to take the work he cause tlu-y could not learn who would l"V uir u. fciucn transactions seemed shady to the business house, and thov refused to take the work. It seems to me that 1 am Justified In refusing to transfer the license until after an in vestigation." Then the personalities flew in Beld ing s direction. He was accused of unfair play in that he came to the liquor license committee and asked that a transfer he not made to his ward and his request was granted. "Now why do you come and ask that this license be held up when Coun cilman Dunning, in whose ward the saloon Is situated, comes and vouches jor asKeo several of the mem bers. Cellars Springs Surprise. Belding was nonplused, but before the other members knew It wnio mEi c.1,y.Attrney Kavanaugh If he had the limn scraicn orr nis name from the report. Kavanaugh said that he had pot. and that the only way to do was to reconsider the action on the report Councilman Cellars made perhaps the most sensational speech of the debate when he called attention to the fact that for the oast seven mnntha ha t.o.i heard "nothing but Conrad, Conrad Conrad, while there was never any thing before the council in regard to the dlvesin the north end which from mv source of Information, must be vastly more wicked than Conrad's place. "I know," he continued, "that they are ten times worse than anv saloon that can be run in the board of trade building. Cellars closed by saying that he hoped the police department would fur- m..n evidence to the council In regard to all of these places nnd that general action would follow which will he fair to all roncerned. Baker Anxious to Get Right. ' Baker arose In reply to Cellars and after lie had talked awhile, in which he renaunced bis former position in voting lor Con.-ao's transfer, he was interrupt ed by Kellnher. who asked whether Ba- . ..o no. mom mat i onrao ran a (live when he signed the transfer. Ba ker replied that lie did. "Then whv did von vol, for tt" Kel'nher. "Because Drleoll, as a member of the Big Ten. asked me to," he replied.

Another paving war has broken out In tho city council which promises to equal the fight between tha Warren Conatructlon company and the Barber Asphalt company of several years ago. This time the fight Is over the Intro duction of Hassuin pavement and start ed over the minority and majority ro- porta of the street cummittee In regiitd to the petition of the property owner on Williams avenue asking for the pavement between Kllllngsworth and Alnsworth avenues. A long debate followed the Introduc tion of the reports In which several of the counHlmen engaged in personal lilts before it was Ilnally decided lj have City Engineer D. W. Taylor cut out a piece of the pavement and exhibit It to the council at their next meeting. Councilman Vaughn led the fight for the pavement and stated that lie had seen specimens of it In Seattle and be lieved it to be equally as good as bltu lltolc. Councilman Concannon ques tioned tho Judgment of Vaughn and asked whether the pavement he bail seen was not on the side of a hill where there was little traffic. Vaughn replied that such might be the case, but whether It was or not he had talked to City Engineer Thomson vi item lie. wno saw mat ine pavement was all right.

You no right whatever to swear out a war rant for this man and then get a law yer for him and help him to obtain bail without letting me know what you were doing." This was a part of the rebuke given to John F. Watts, an attorney against whom disbarment proceedings are pending, by Judge Olson in the Jus tice court this morning. At the same time Deputy District Attorney Vreeland announced that hereafter when a man Is arrested he will not be taken to the district attor ney's offlc for an informal preliminary hearing, but that all such harings must be before the court from which tho warrant Is Issued. Such are the In structions of District Attorney Cam eron. It has frequently happened that a lawver will persuade the dlBtrlct at torney's office to let his client go upon his own recomlzance. Often the police or the constables have trouble find ing him again. There will be little more "own recognizance" business here after.. Watts wss severely criticized In court bv Justice Olson. He was the complainant against J. II. Hognn, who had shot a pet deer of Watts', thus violating the game laws. It came to the ears of Justice Olson that Watts had so thoroughly scared Hogan. a stranger In the city, that he j llfct'l I'HIU .1 KO...ii ruin ' iit"'U ..inn ing trial.

This pulled Concannon out of his chair with a hot retort on his lips, but it was drowned In the nolso of Mayor Dane's gavel which put a stop to the personalities. The debate then proceeded In regard to the construction of the pavement and In order to acquaint the councilman as to whether the method of mixing the crushed rock and cement was a good one the city engineer was Instructed to have an exhibit of tho pavement at the council meeting three weeks from today. The reports of the committee were continued over until the same date. Judge Wolverton'a displeasure at th extreme tedium and slow movement of the trial of the Booth conspiracy cast has been up to this time about the only Item of Interest to be brought out by tho procedure. According to ths court too much time Is being taken with tho presentation of the evidence, and both District Attorney McCourt and Dan J. Malarkey, especially the latter, have beer taken mildly to task for not making haste. Yesterday afternoon the court asked Mr. McCourt to hurrv with his nimin. atlon of witnesses and presentation of documentary evidence. Just before the adjournment of court for the evening he took Mr. Malarkey to task, telling him that the trial was being unneces sarily retarded bv the slow mnvlni methods of conducting the case and closed by Insisting that the proceedings Rubbling Fountain for New Albina High School. llnallv de.ctdliiK whether the irnnsf.. shall he allowed.

Ry these documents all of Agee's transactions are set out and from them It will he argued by the defense that there Is no evidence to show that any of the defendants entered Into a conspiracy with Agee. Age, the chief witness for the gov ernment. Is expected to be placed on the stand some time during the after noon. Owing to the arguments over the admissibility of documentary evi dence by the government It is probabla however that Agee will not have much time left to him during the late after noon in which to tell his main story for the government. Judging from the slowness of the trial U is very probable that the case will not be finished this week hut will go over into next week, perhaps well toward the middle, before the Jury Is given an opportunity to express Its views concerning the guilt or Innocence of the defendants.
