RAPID TRANSIT
TO JAIL REVEALS
PECK OF TROUBLE
Man Who Had Dined in Style at
Leading Hotel Finds Self in
Jail Facing an Inquiry.
Novels couldn't well hold all the
adventures and misadventures of
Leon Camsusla, now in Jail awaiting
deportation hearings, if the evidence
aid to have been collected by im
migration inspectors here la a cri
terion. "Poor Leon." sighs Immigration In
spector B. P. Bonham. "It certainly
must have been a comedown to Jump
Into the county Jail when only the night
before attired in a silk top hat and eve-
nlnr clothes he had entertained four
ladles at dinner at the Portland hotel
SATS HE IS ABUSED
And for answer Camsusla, up In the
county Jail. In awearlnar by all that's
good and holy that he has been abused
and that In his Incarceration the United
States is taking a decidedly unfriendly
attitude towards Canada.
For 'twas Canada whence Leon came
That's Just what brought about his ar
rest, for immigration authorities believe
he entered the United States without
proper Inspection and further came here
under contract, violating the contract
labor law.
No piker was Camsusla, according to
vidence which is slowly being mosaiced
CUTS BIO SWATH
He took apartments at the fashionable
Nortonia hotel, worked for the Oregon
Marine & Fisheries Supply company, 107
First street, and met a host of people
who thought he was "there." He cut
quite a swath, according to Immigra
tion Inspector Bonham.
Even did he go so far as to plight Ms
troth with a charming Portland girl.
The girl so declares, . but Leon Is obdu
rate. "It Isn't so." he declares.
The girl didn't wear an engagement
ring, she said, because Camsusla wag
going to present It to her at a dinner
party. However, she had seen the ring
It's all very well and nice to become
engaged to a charming Portland miss
rules Bonham, but not when one Is
said to have left a wife In Canada and
has been co-respondent in a divorce case.
BOOTLEGGING IS CHARGED
Batting 1.000 in society. Leon branched
out n bootlegging, officials declare, only
to be nipped before he got well under
way.
His scheme was this, they declare:
He represented that he had beaucomp
Scotch whiskey real honest-to-goodness
Whiskey stored in a bonded warehouse
In British Columbia. Now, under the
. prohibition act In Canada, according to
Camsusla, liquor can be shipped from
a bonded warehouse to any foreign port.
What handier, considering his connec
tion with the Oregon Marine A Fisheries
Supply company, than to meet his own
liquor shipments as they arrived along
the waterfront, lie sold the whiskey, it
Is said, for slightly more than $16 a
case, thus showing poor business Judg
ment. He even Issued receipts for
money received.
SCHEME WORKS WEIL
Approaching many business men. his
scheme readily was backed by willing
dollar holders, Camsusla's plan seeming
to be a darb.
But Leon either spent the money or
the ships scheduled to carry his liquor
from British Columbia to Portland didn't
come, declares Bonham. The immigra
tion chief believes Camsusla had real
liquor and really meant to sell it, he
ays.
About $2000 had been collected from
Portland business men who wanted
liquor bad enough to disregard the pro
hibition laws. Now, one by one, they're
explaining to Bonham. who holds evi
dence showing financial transactions
With Camsusla. he says.
And Camsusla, up In the county Jail,
keeps sending out telegrams to high
government officials In Canada. They'll
stop this affront to his country, he be
lieves, and get him free.
