A telegram I vigorously protesting
against the decision of the engineers
In the war department at Washington
adverse to the bill for an appropriation
for a dredger to work on the Columbia
bar, was sent by the Chamber of Com
merce to Joseph N. Teal this after
noon. Preliminary plans were dis
cussed today for aending a special car
delegation of prominent Portland busi
ness men to storm Washington in be
half of the dredger. The telegrams to
Teal read: !
"Telegram received. It Is an titter
Impossibility, j even with continuing

- "Mclndoe's letter to us estimates six
years required; and that an additional

"The same letter expressed the hope
that dumping of rock would be begun
in 1913, but as you know this has been
delayed until 1914.
"We view with consternation and dls!

also that James J. Hill. Colonel dough
and others should be Invited to attend

"Chamberlain's position as chairman
of the committiee on military affairs
should enable him to request engineer

to proceed to Washington and we wish
he would avail himself of this while
you are there.
"PORTLAND CHAM. OF COM.
Telegrams went from the Chamber
of Commerce to Senator Chambeclaln
last night saying that if the engineers
of the war department are correctly
quoted In a position opposed to rec
ommending an additional dredger un
til the Chinook has further proved her
self, they thereby disregard the sup
plemental report and recommendation
of Major James F. Mclndoe, and con

appointed if a way Is not found to

CITIES FAVOR DREDGE
OFFICER CHARGED WITH
DEFACING BUILDING
Valdemar Lldell, Swedish vice-con
sul, was appointed administrator
the estate of Lena Kassraan, who died
in the Multnomah hospital recently,
leaving an estate valued at 5000, by
Circuit Judge Cleeton this morning.
Judge Cleeton made the appointment
because he felt that it would be best.
as Lldell would not represent any par
ticular claimants. Attorney James
Walton Jr., representing the state,
read a letter from A. F. Salmson, of
Ridgefield, Wash., who contends he is
a nephew-of Mrs. Kassman, in whica
Salmson made a claim to heirship in
another estate in wbici the heirs wer
unknown.
In addition to the petition of Lldell
and the claim of Salmson, the county
commissioners had asked that S. H.
Pierce be appointed administrator.
The; county has a claim for care given
the dead woman Just before her death.
John M. Wise, a member of the
Portland police force, ' was to appear
before District Judge Dayton this aft
ernoon to answer a charge of trai
liciously defacing a building at 93 M
North Fourth street when he, with six
other policemen, cut through plaster
and lathing to gain entrance into an
alleged Chinese gambling joint.
Tiie other six are complained against
but their names are- not given. . Wise
assumed the blame and said if neces
sary be would produce the others. The
complaint was signed by Jung Chung
as complaining-witness. The Chinese
Drotest they were ouietlv eatine- a X
meal when the raid waa made.
Pledge of support to Portland in the
effort to secure an appropriation for a
new $1,500,000 dredge for work? at the
mouth of the Columbia were received
by the Chamber of Commerce today
from the Ellensburg and Spokane
chambers. Washington's representa
tives in congress have been appealed to
by these chambers to help secure the
appropriation.
Through the assistance of- Captain
Robert Douar, Senator Perkins of Call
fornia, who is a member of the com
mittee on commerce, has promised his
support. In a letter to Captain Dol
lar, the senator says:
"I shall be glad to give this bill my
favorable consideration when it comes
before the senate for action, as I am
in hearty sympathy with . any measure
having in view the upbuilding of the
commerce of the pacific coast, ana
anything tending to lessen the dangers
of navigation."
Among the firms endeavoring to se
cure the assistance of their business
connections In the east are the Cros
sett Lumber company of Wauna, the
Consolidated Lumber company of Carl
ton, A. O. Long, J. A. Freeman & Sons
and Wadhams & Kerr Brothers of this
city. Other. Portland firms are also
writing for every possible assistance
of firms In the east and the middle
west with which they are doing busi
ness.
To aid Joseph N. Teal and A. H.
Averlll of the Portland chamber, who
are now in Washington working for
the passage of the appropriation bill,
the chamber has been sending many
telegraphic messages giving informa
tion for use at hearings. The whole
staff ofthe chamber is gathering this
data.
A dispatch sent out from Portland !
by the Associated Press and published
in the Los Angeles Times to the effect
that the schools ot Portland had been
closed to prevent the spread of small
pox, has been made the subject of an
inquiry by Miss S. Surridge of Mayor
Albee.
Miss Surridge writing from Los
Angeles calls upon the mayor for the
true facts inasmuch as the Associated
Press report waa obviously false. Dr.
M. B. Marcellus. city health officer,
has been directed by the mayor to re
ply to the Los Angeles woman's letter.
The dispatch' in question reads:
"Scourge la Portland Schools.
"Portland, Or., Feb. 4. (By A. P.
Night Wire) The board' of health
ordered all schools closed today for an
indefinite period as a precautionary
measure to prevent the spread of
smallpox. Thirteen thousand pupils
are affected."
Dr. Marcellus reply to Miss Sur
ridge is to the effect that the Asso
ciated Press report was both false-and
Incorrect and that Portland had only
12 cases of smallpox during the past
month. He stated that perhaps the
dispatch referred to St. Johns, which
had a number of cases of smallpox
last month and where the schools have
1300 pupils. He further Informed Miss
Surridge, that .the Portland schools
number 30,000 students and not 13,000
as stated.
