THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, MONDAY, APRIL 30, 1917. CLOSED WITH MOST F SUCCESS UL CONCERT , Musicians Donate Services . and Orchestra Faces Sev , .enth Year With Surplus, ? DIFFICULT PARTS FLAYED ;Moss Christensen ud Waldsnuur Und I. Conduct Two MomBta of S : "Pathrttque" Symphony. Br 7. L. Wall In. With the ooncert Sunday afternoon at the Eleventh Street theatre, the 'Portland symaiony season came to a .close. Artistically and from the vlew ; point of attendance the season has beeri successful Indeed. The limited 'seating capacity of the house made tho 'financial end of the project a some what difficult problem, and It required Sunday's performance to square ac counts. But It also leaves a respect able nucleus for an emergency fund. .and therefore the orchestra will face 'the seventh year of Its existence next 'fall under brighter conditions than ie.ver. , The closing: concert was in a way a recapitulation of the work of the past Mix seasons, for the program was made (up largely of the choicest works of (ijrmw concm, , Of the Tschalkowsky symphony ;"Pathetlque" the orchestra played the two first movements beautifully not withstanding the fact that the first and second violin and cello sections vere somewhat smaller than usually. (The musicians donated their services .at this concert. Conductor Mose Christensen wielded the baton with pleftdld authority and his Jnterpre- . tation was featured by greater breadth Of style and abandonment than has been displayed by him before since he became one of the associate conduc tors. The very charming phrasing of v the principal theme by the string and the, wood wind was one of the out- ; standing features of the concert. Mr. Christensen also conducted the popular "Peer Gynt" suite by Grieg, which with the two symphony movements . formed the first half of the program. The difficult passages laid for the basses, both string and reed, in the fourth, movement could have been brought out more distinctly without harming the effect. The suite and the symphony movements were, most enthusiastically applauded. , Waldemar Und conducted the sec ond part, opening with the wonderful prelude to Wagner's "Lohengrin." Conductor Lind developed a climax that stirred the audience and drew applause containing the true ting of spontaneity. His other numbers were 'Invitation to the Dance," Weber-. Weingartner; "Dance of the Whistle Pipers,'! Tschalkowsky, In which the prominent flute solos were exquisitely played: "Irish Tune from County Derry," Grainger; intermezzo from "The Jewels of the Madonna." Wolf Ferrari, and "Southern Rhansody," Xlosmer. The program opened with the "Star Spangled Banner." A. Wunderwald ' was the concertmaster. The audience nearly filled the theatre. Seed Potatoes to Be Distributed From Court House Tho second distribution of seed potatoes from the county's surplus will take place at the , courthouse, corner of Fourth f and Salmon, Wednesday at 1 p. m., announced County Agrlcul- turist S. B.

Fid ward Beas ley, committed to the Oregon State Hospital from Linn county, escaped from the asylum grounds this morn ing. lie was working In a field when last seen. He is not considered dan gerous and is expected to make his way back to Eugene. He is 26 years old. ' With election notices being sent out today by City Auditor Barbur to the Judges and clerks in the various pre cincts plans are rapidly taking shape for the Joint city and special state election to be held here June 4. No definite arrangement has been made, however, to have the same judges and clerks serve on both, the city and county election boards to minimise the expense. A number of other men besides those already announced are planning to run for city commlsslonerships. This was Indicated today when nominating pe titions were sought at the auditors office. One set of petitions was given out for one man expecting to run for mayor. Who they are for is not known, but it is believed they are to be used by A. G. Rushlight, ex-mayor, who is getting into the race on an anti-commission charter platform. Vacating Power Sought. A charter amendment to give the city council authority to order the va cation of plats, blocks, streets, -alleys and other public thoroughfares Is now proposed by Commissioner Dieck and is to be considered by the city council Wednesday. The proposed amendment would give the council power to act upon the presentation of a petition of the owners of 75 per cent of the front age of the property affected. Preparing to Force The Vote in Curry Governor Will Take Action to Btan- damus Officials If They Do Hot Take Necessary Steps for Election. Salem, Or., April 30. Acting on the advice of Attorney-General Brown, GSvernor Wlthycombe today wired the county judge, county clerk and sheriff of Curry county to ascertain if they intend to obey the law requiring the holding of a special elerfpn through out the state on June 4.. The chief executive asked for an Im mediate reply, and If they signify they do not intend to hold the election in Curry county, he announced he would request the attorney-general to insti tute mandamus proceedings to compel them to comply with the law. This action has been taken as a re sult of the Curry county court passing a resolution declaring its refusal to hold the election, on the grounds that no provision was made in the budget for defraying the expense of such an election, and that Curry county will receive no benefit from the $6,000,000 road bond issue.

Sutton and Harry Gross, who were charged with sending liquor-laden trunks from San Francisco to a small station below Oregon City, from where they were to have been brought to Portland by automobile. Hearing was begun this afternoon before Circuit Judge Tucker of the action brought by Fred C. King, a tax payer, against Samuel B. Martin, coun ty auditor, and John M. Lewis, county treasurer, to restrain the payment of claims presented by the Oregonian and the Telegram for the publication of the 1915 delinquent tax list. The sought for relief in the action is the reduction from the two bills of $2497.64, the plaintiff presenting in the- case today that the claims are excessive under the allowance granted by the statutes for tax list publica tions. The Oregonian's claim of $3599.54, and the claim of the Tele gram for $2571.10 are based on the average general circulation of the pa pers. Under the statute providing that such claims should be based on the county circulation the claims should be: Oregtfhian, $2203.80, and the Tele gram, -2571.10.

BUSINESS IS EXPANDING Ltunber Trad Is Znttaneed as maatra- tlon; Postal Xecalpts and Deposits Alao Greater. April was the biggest month in the history of Portland for bank clear ings. The total for the SO days was 3,370,993.01. an increase of more than twenty millions over the clearings for ApeiK 1916, for which the figures were S5Z,973,314.5i The increased clearings are due largely to the higher cost of nearly every commodity. Bankers during the month have said that It now takes $1.50 to do the work of $1 in normal times. At the same time the increase is due considerably to the larger vol ume of business. For Instance the lumber trade in Portland during the month was the largest since the war started. Postoffice Makes Beoord. The war censorship forbids publics tion of shipping figures, but neverthe less. It can be said that the month was by far the beEt of any that Port land has seen for the lumber industry since the war started. An example of the business may be cited in the fact that three off shore lumber cargoes in three days were reported. Similarly the coastwise grain ship ping records for the month showed much improvement over recent former periods, although no new records were registered. "The largest April the Portland postoffice has ever had." This was Postmaster F. 8. Myers' commentary on his estimated figures for the 30 days' business. The receipts of the month (estl mated) were $105,800. The actual re ceipts for April of 1916 were $97,- 072.99. The postal saving receipts in creased $10,000, and the total deposits are now $1,469,037. Weather Affects Kaaltx. are more settled.

In April, 1916 there were 517 permits issued at figure of $457,765. In April, 867 realty transfers were recorded with the county clerk, and the total money involved was $390,222 Tho March realty transfers numbered 1072 transactions, amounting to $459, 708 The excessively gloomy condition of the weather had deterrent effeet on building and realty transactions.
