Justice of Peace Olson's Judi
cial Wrath Aroused by Gam
bling in These Places; De
clares Disgrace to Officials.
rnQuallflea war upon the fake Jew
elry establishments In Portland was
declared this morning by Justice of the
Peace Fred 01son, who tated-durlng
the hearing of a case brought before
him that ' If the official responsible
did 'not take action he would himself
begin . fight to put them out of ex-1
lstence. . .''':. f-'''- !
"Places such as Cramwell A Rosen ;
thal's on Bixth street, and 6am : Ma-:
xourosky's on Burnslde street are dls;
graces to the city and to the mayor
and council If they permit them to con
tinue to exist," he said. , "I shall ask
the council to abolish them and others
of their kind. If the council does not
act I will call upon the district attor
ney. If he does not take action, I
shall then go after them myself, I
will not Quit before they do."
Justice Olson's denunlcatlon came
daring the trial of Joe Batarla and
Joe Liteman, who are accused of fleec
ing N. E. Moe, trainer of the Portland
baseball team, of 157 in a card game
in the rear room of an auction Jewelry
store on Sixth street, near the Union
dtpot Moe discovered after he had
lost his money that the backs of the
cards with which ha and the other men
had been playing were marked with
rd ink in such a manner as to be al
most indiscernible to any on not look
ing for the marks. Bateman and Lite-
man were held to .the grand Jury,
"I cannot understand now; city of
finals will permit such placas to eon-
tinue to defraud citizens and strangers
in the city,' said Justice Olson after
ward. "It is the worst sort of rob
bery because t la legalized and pec
pie presume that aa establishment 11
censed by the city is not practicing
larceny, therefore making them easy
victims. If the other officials will not
close them up I will find a way In
which to do so."
Constable "Wagner went after Mai
ourosky's place today and said he
would personally swear to warrants
against the proprietor.
"I am going to keep after hira dur
ing the remainder of my term," he de
clared.
Y. REPUBLICANS
PiSEMAi.
" DEMAND PROGRESS
allowed to catch up with snd run over
the Republican party. This convention
must put before the people candidates
whose characters mean that every plat
form promise will be adhered to. We
have been told that the controversy
brought to a vote yesterday will be con
tinued throughout' the campaign with
disaster at the polls.'
"I do not so estimate the character of
my honored friends who were among
those 445 voting with the minority. A
minority that Is guided by the magnani
mous spirit of the vice president of the
United States will not act la any such
direction,' I am sure."
Root a little boost of Ehernum was
cheered. "
ISlno rlty Bates Sir sot primary,
Pendergast moved the adoption of the
majority platform report, and Speaker
Wadsworth, a member 6f the commit
tee on resolutions, presented a minority
report. The (minority report provided
for a continuance of the convention sys
tem and extending the primary enroll
ment law to all elections; also for
ths direct election of a state committee
and, Of convention ' delegates. Wads
worth said the minority waived its ob
jection to the entire trfajorlty report
with the exception of the direct pri
mary nominating plank.
A debate followed between Pender
gast, Wadsworta and Seth Low, Pen
dergast Insisted that the majority plank
as to primaries was sufficiently ex
plicit and meant exactly what it said.
waasworto retoriea:
"The majority report does not really
tell the people in so many words what
we Intend to do, Sooner ar later. If
you insist on your course, you will not
have a representative government, but a
purs democracy and all of Its attend
ant evils."
"Progressiva fctrt Wo Insurgent"
Low pointed out that the old guard
offered to agree to the direct election
of delegates to the convention, but
balked at. the direct nomination Of can
didates for stats offices. Ha declared
this. attitude Inconsistent.
The majority platform report was
adopted by the convention. Roossvelt
expressed .himself as satisfied with it.
The general opinion is that the plat
form is progressiva but not "insur
gent" . .. , .
The Indorsement of President Taft In
the platform : was loudly applauded by
the delegates.
politically, ilea In the hollow of ths
colonel's hands, and it is' evident that
tne Roosevelt control will be carrlad
through to the end.
When the de gates assembled it was
evident that the "fraziling" had not re
moved the bitterness between the fac
tions. There was a persistent feeling
that the retirement of Timothy I Wood
ruff and former ex-Governor B. B.
04fi!l foreshadowed a party split which
migHt work to the success of the Dem
ocrats in the November elections.
When the session opened today State
Senator HenrjA Stlmson and Harvey
Hlnman were the leading gubernatorial
favorites, with every possibility of the
development of a "black horse." Roose
velt was known to favor Stlmson, while
many of his supporters were for Hln
man, and it was deemed possible that
the colonel might be rorced to accepf
Hlnman. -
Roosevelt, Ellhu Root ajid Lloyd C.
Grlscom discussed last night the avail
able candidates and the' colonel gave
his assuranoe that be would go on the
stump for the Republican nominee dur
ing the campaign.

.... The colonel called the convention to
order at 11:20. . Compared with yester
day the session was a "frost," ths gal
leries being almost bare of . spectators.
The regulars were more defiant than
ever. This was indicated 'when Lloyd
C. Grlscom summoned Congressman
P'tinet, who has long been '. candidate
for the gubernatorial nomination, and
notified him that Stlmson would be a
. candidate. Roosevelt having Just pre

terest In the reported chase. Beam was
a gay young spirit about town, and his
wife was well known for her singing.
The reported estrangement caused a
stir in society and musical circles.
In circulation there are severa1
stories of the reasons for the departure
of Mrs. Beam so suddenly that her
husband did not know for what place
she was bound. One Is that she left
to "teach him a lesson." The handlers
of this story declared that Beam was
"wild" and that his wife ran away In
the hope that by so doing she would
teach htm to be a better boy. Another
story is that Mrs. Beam suddenly de
cided i to go east, hoping to hook up
with some impresario, and departed
without consulting her husband.
But the story that is going the rounds
of the clubs of which Bean was a mem
ber is much more spicy and is inclined
toward the affinity report Just who
Is that reported person whose soul is
said to harmonize with the singer's
no one seema to know, or if "they do they
will not tell his' name. Therefore it Is
difficult for the newspaper men. to as
certain whether ha is in the city or has
gone to Chicago, s
Gossip about the rumored estrange
ment sprung up through Beam's own
statements. For. two days after " his
wife's departure h stayed in Ban Fran
cisco, making open inquiries in an effort
to learn her whereabouts. He said, it
Is reported on good authority, that the
night before she left he accused her of
receiving too many attentions from a
certain mala pupil, a broad, husky sort
of a person, with a largre voice and
strong personality. So the reports say
Beam was not any too discreet in say
ing that he feared the teacher and pupil
were to meet In Chicago,
Friends of llary AUele Case Beam,
while they admit that they do not know
where she Is, offer the information that
for months she has considering going
"into grand opera." She told seneral
of them that she and her husband might
hook up with some prominent impres
ario and take a fling at the high notes.
They believe she has gone to New York
or Chicago to interview managers.
Mary Adele Case Beam's mother, .who
lives in Oregon City, Or., has been un
well for some; time. Friends said to
day, that the daughter probably found,
on her arrival in Oregon City, that her
mother needed change of climate, and
took her on the eastern trip;
One club man, who would not allow
his name to be -used, recelyed a let
ter from a Portland friend, who also
knew Beam, yesterday. The writer
said that Beam had been in Portland
last week and had made the rounds of
his wife's most intimate friends. To
many of them, so the writer informed
hia San Franclsoo correspondent. Beam
told in detail the story of his troubles.

before it was struck by the freight
car.. ,.:.,.,.. (..-.
Tht collision occurred at the lnter-
iptinn of Hawthorne avenue and East
'iurd street" at 10:45 o'clock. The Sell
wood car vwas bound east on Hawthorne
avenue and was climbing the Incline
and with only a few passengers on
board. , The O. R. & N. freight was
being backed north on Third street.
It, too, was moving slowly.
' According to thj report filed by the
streetcar crew this morning In General
Superintendent Franklin's office, the
flagman on the freight had a lantern In
his hand, but it wbs not burning. The
tall buildings on the south side of Third
street case a shadow over the railroad
track and the motorman waa. unable, to
see tha freight cars. The report states
that tha f lagman'was on the freight car,
but as his lantern was not showing, it
was tmposslble to see the car until it
was almost upon the streetcar. The
freight car was derailed wnen it struck
tha forward end of the streetcar, the
latter practically escaping damage.
The collision will be Investigated this
afternoon by officials of the streetcar
company. Claim Agent Boynton will be
In charge. A few weeks ago a similar
collision occurred. Since then the street
car company has insisted on its motor
men operating the cars on lower Haw
thorns avenue with utmost caution. It
Is held by the streetcar company that
the steam roads should not only show
lights on backing trains, but also keep a
flagman at the crossings. In support of
this contention it is pointed to the fact
that the steam trains orosa only occa
sionally at very irregular hours, so that
a flagmaft could easily be sent ahead of
the cars to fiag at the crossing about to
be made.
