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

most sensational speech of the debate
when he called attention to the fact

Conrad, while there was never any
thing before the council in regard to

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

ed by Kellnher. who asked whether Ba-

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

and was not allowed to go until som
time after the noon Intermission Mr
Bridges spent all of the morntng testi
fying on cross examination to a mass
or government documents introduced
by the defense relating to the proced
ure of Thomas Agee before the land
office. 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

COURT ROOM SCENE
OE VARM FRACAS
4 What to do with the babies Is
the question that Is troubling the
officers of the Babies" Home and 4
the Juvenile court. They are
coming In faster than the at-
tendants know what to do with
4 them and they are almost driven
4 to the expedient of inaugurating 4
a day to give babies away as 4
was sung about ln the song of
our grandmothers. Three have
been placed liv charge of the Ju-
venile, court during the past 10 4
f days. 4
4 Yesterday Mrs. Martha Was-
4 son, who lives on Grant
4 street and has a family sof four
4 children of her own. came Into
4 the court bringing a six months 4
4 old boy In her arms. The baby
4 had very black hair and merry 4
4 black eyes and was bright and 4
4 attractive.
4 She said that two weeks ago
4 a man called at her house and
4 said he was from San Francisco. 4
4 He wanted to leave the baby
4 with her If she would care for 4
4 It and would pay hev $1 a day, 4
4 providing he might come every
4 day and see it. She was glad
to get the money and took the
4 baby. The man has not. shown
up since. Judge Bronaugh en- 4
tered an order admitting the'
baby to the home, as Mrs. Was- 4
son could not afford to care for
4 It and for her own children also.
