Yesterday morning Clark called on
Master Mechan'0 Berg at the North
. Taclfio terminal ranis and asked Mot to
luncheon with him,' Mr. Berg, know
. in t him to ba a fraud, accompanied him
merely for the , novelty, of the altua-
, tloa. Before the meal waa finished.
however; Clark' produced a check for
1110 on i U Orande, Orv bank with
the signature of an electric light com
pany of La Oreads affixed. He did not
"as Berg- to Indorse- the check, but etat
e4 that ha atopped over at L Grande on
- hla way to Portland from Philadelphia
and after doing a little work for the
., electric company ha waa given "that
. eheek for the trifling a cm of 1 1 10.

" while at luncheon Clark handed Berg a-
handful f cigars,'
"Take 'em," he said. "X have a pocket
full which were given me at tna. baa
oust laat night After the banquet 1
went tap to- the club and drank four
bottlea of wine and tot mora cigara,1
ha aald. .-' - .' , .
a "What elubT inemired Berg. . ' .
, ''Why, the .American club,'; replied
. Clark.. 4 ' . ;. t ; ." '
' Though Berg knew tnere waa no club
of that name In the alty, he refrained
. . irora saying anyining aa ne waniea a
eletaot Superintendent Graham to meet
him. Later when Mr. Graham came
to the round house In response to a
telephone meeaage from an employe.
' Clark hurried away , and haa not been

' . ' A vlfll f n (lmrm mam at a nArinw
nense on Russell atreet by A. William
' Ringer, the Baldwin Locomotive work a
representative at Portland, and a Jour
. nal reporter ' yeaterday, dlacloaed the
fact that the man la entirely without
1 baggage and that he owea for a week' a
; lodging. Nothing waa found in hla room
. but two empty beer bottlea, a worn ault
of underwear and aoma cigarette atuba.
The landlady aald the man waa fre
quently: called' to the telephone and
' that aha had aocaalonally overheard hla
conversation. Many time, aba said,
4 ha waa apparently being called to the
round houaea to look over an engine or
t to explain the working of an intricate
pleea of machinery. But alnce the fore-
men at all the round houaea -have bean
, warned that Clark la a faker, It la be
. lleved that the mas haa a confederate
who calls him on the telephone in order
to aid blm la duping the lodgera at Ma
rooming bouse. -
Mrev Wlleon" who 'waa auppoaed to
' have left the city, and who atated to
Mr. Hlnger, and other that Clark waa
a faker, la now believed to be in the
city. She gave her name aa "Mr a. Min
nie Parrleh," and later aa ""Mrs. Col-
Una."- However, the landlady at Clarka
rooming houae, bellevee that the name
"Mrs. parrtah" la the correct one and
that the woman and Clark flrat met at
""Wichita. Kan., about three yeara ago,
and that both are playing a game of
aome kind. The landlady apparently haa
aome knowledge which aha will not di
vulge at present, although It ia be
lieved that ahe knowa nothing of Clark,
She seems to be well acquainted with
the Parrlah woman, however.
Maater Mechanic Berg of the Terminal
company, while employed on the Oregon
Short Line in Idaho, aaya ha met Clark
about nine yeara ago at Qlenne Ferry,
Idaho. Clark waa then a machinist He
aaya dark explained that he had risen
from the ranka to hla present position
with the Baldwin people.
Master Mechanic Stout at the Alblna
yards yeaterday gave instructions to
hla foremen to eject Clark from the
premises If he came to visit the round
houaea. Similar Instructions have been
issued to the foremen of other yarda in
the city. ..
Clark has no cards, hla clothing ia
shabby and his appearance not at all
reassuring. It waa believed for a time
that he la Insane, but the -bringing to
light of the (380 check, haa caused the
railroad men to change their minds, i So
far aa known, however, he haa not de
frauded anyone out of money.
