New York, Mrch 83. Detectives and
proces-servers are searching for "Anna
Levy,' to whom the "House of Mystery"
was- conveyed by: the mysterious Mrs.
John , W. Jenkins. Just as foreclosure
proceedings were Instituted by Mrs. Be
dell H. Harned, to recover the property
she had sold to Mrs. Jenkins. - ;
( Mrs. Jenkins; a New Orleans girt, vari
ously knowhas Helen Fuld-Dwell-Fleld-Jenklns,
was the 'youngest of five sis
ters of a Louisiana family,' one of whom
also Is known as Anna Mitchell-Levy.
During the fall: of 1910 the last named
resided at, a hotel In Oakland, Cal.,: but
.the record of the deed conveying the
"Mystery House' refers to "Anna Levy'1
of Portland, Or. Two of the sisters of
Mrs. Jenkins claim residence 4n New Or
leans. One a the wife of an attorney.
The Interesting tour ,of Mrs. Jenkins
runs through the various southern cen
ters where the racing game is popular,
across the continent at least twice and
in and out-of Chicago and New Tork
Cty with remarkable frequency. ; ', ?
Throughout all the story the same
mystery follows the Identity of ."John
VT. Jenkins." The latest information
places his residence close to Chicago,
and Identifies him with the possession of
many millions made in leather.. Nathan
.Ollen of Kenosha, Wis., a founder of the
1(0.000,000 leather- trust, was ssked if
he was the Mysterious John W. Jen
kins. r"I will net deny I know the
worrfan, Mrs. Jenkins, Mrs,- Fuld, Mrs.
Dwell or whatever you choose to call
her. ." He said, "I do not. deny I have
visited her many times, but ' I deny
emphatically that I purchased for Mrs.
Jenkins the 'Mystery. House."'

THE N. K.FAIRBANK COMPANY.
. CHICAGO .
Portland holds a $20,000 check from
Farson. Son & Co. of Chicago. ' If will
npt be returned to the firm until the i
city has received the text of the opinion
of the firm's' attorneys, wherein the
I500,00K issue' of : Broadway bridge
bonds, bid upon some time ago by these
brokers, la declared Illegal.
'.Word came from Farson,, Son Co.
yesterday that the firm's attorneys had
passed adversely on the bonds ; after
two months' consideration, Tne text
of the opinion - was not cited. Mayor
Simon and City Auditor Barbur took
this as an act of disrespect to we
city they will respond In kind.. ' ' "t 't-
' In several of the great advertising
mediums of the . east, advertisements
for . the sale of 1500,000 : additional
Broadway bridge bonds will appear next
Monday. The bonds will be sold April
11 at the same .time water bonds are
sold. They will be advertised for sale
subject to legality, not subject to the
opinion of attorneys, as' was tne diock i
bid on by Farson. Son-Co. City Au
ditor Barbur ald this jnornlng that the
lattefs bid ha4 been irregular in me
first place. , It was not accompanied by
the proper certified check. It was made
subject to the opinion of attorneys, when
the nsual procedure is to declare it sub
ject to legality; -. It was necessary to
obtain the check by telegraph. City Au
dltor Barbur ' maintains that' the city
lost In several ways, besides time In
bridge construction, by fooling with
Farson,. Son & Co. .;. ' ; '
. Subject to legality This Time.
City Attorney Grant aald this morn,
lng he thought the new block of bridge
bonds should be advertised subject te
the legality of the bonds as construed
by the supreme court of Oregon. He
maintains that in declaring the bonds il
legal the attorneys of Farson, Son A
Co. have overruled the supreme court
of Oregon, with Its five Judges, and
have also overruled five judges of the
circuit court, and one federal Judges all
of whom had declared legal , and regu
lar the initiative actvy which the bridge
bonds were authorised; and further
Judged that the case of the obstruc
tionists,' Frant Kiernan and RalplrDtm
lway, was without any merit.
After having their various esses tried
In all the - courts accessible, the ob
structionists gave notice of appeal to
the aupreme court of the United Statea.
If they should win there the judgment
of the court would include a decision
that Oregon's Initiative and referendum
are unconstitutional. . Ralph Dunlway,
the obstructionists attorney, has said
that is the real purpose of the litiga
tion; to wipe out Oregon's direct gov
ernment.. Tv;
Direct Taxes tot Bridge Possible.
City Attorney Grant said this morn
ing that the acts of congress and of
the legislature, authorising the bridge,
had not only made' the Initiative un
necessary, but had given the city au
thority , to pay for the bridge out of
general taxation, even as the new coun
ty courthouse Is being built. However,
he has not' ftled a' "motion to dismiss
the obstructionist case from hearing be
fore the United States supreme court,
because of a slight question Involved
as to whether the obstructionist case
shall ultimately be construed to apply
only to an attack upon the Initiative
and referendum.
In the meantime, the city, and its of
ficials are not at all discouraged by
the refusal of Farson, Son A Co. to
take the Broadway bridge bonds. Mayor
Simon said this morning:
"The- adverae decision i Is extremely
unfortunate, But I've arranged to have
the city auditor secure a copy of the
opinion rendered by the attorneys of
Farson, Son & Co., before we return
their check for $25,000. We should have
this opinion Inside of a week and then
we will know whether or not they merit
the return of the check. Aa for re
bidding, the city auditor is already au
thorised to try It again and so we will
keep on trying It again until we win."
