train robbers. ....
"Orville plotted the whole thing," Col
lins said, according, to Johnston. "He
planned it and when he- told me how
easy it would be I fell for it. I never
thought of robbing the train until he put
It into my mind."

AUTOMATIC
INSTALLED
Fifteen Hundred Will Be in Use
in Mt. Scott District Alone Next
Sunday Morningj Many New
Improvements Are Added.
Next Sunday morning 1500 resi
dents of the Mount Scott district will
wake up and find automatic tele
phones In their homes. At midnight
Saturday the Pacific Telephone &
Telegraph company will start the
herculean task of moving 1500 tele-1
phone connections about two miles,
from the Tabor office to the new Ar
leta station. . .
All changes are from the manual to
the automatic service, and practically
all are from the Tabor office. In order
to avoid public confusion, numbers for
these new phones have already been
given to the 1500 subscribers and the
new directory printed. Messengers
started distributing the new directory
today, but the public is cautioned by
telephone officials not to use .the new
book until Sunday morning or they may
get the wrong connection. Old tele
phone books are not being ' collected
for this season.
The plan of the telephone company
is eventually to change all telephones
in the city to the automatic system.
All telephone numbers out of the new
Arleta station will be prefixed by the
number, "6."
Several improvements on the auto
matic telephone are found on the new
instruments. The telephone is much
lighter than the old automatic, the deck
type being lighter than the present man
ual instrument No push button for
ringing the number is on the new In
strument as every telephone is equipped
with atn automatic ringing device. This
device has also been installed in the old
automatic . stations, so that it is no
longer necessary to "ring" an automatic
telephone anywhere in the city. The
new telephones also permit two. three
or four party lines the same as on the
manual, but as yet the inventors have
not overcome the ability of other parties
from hearing the conversation..
- Only a-feW women?: will be employed
in the new station to answer long dis
tance trouble' and Information calls and
to transfer automatic and manual calls.
Switch tenders, who will be telephone
mechanics, will attend to other station
business. , 1

New York; Nov. 29. Some of the
greatest banking institutions in the
country Monday will begin a series
of conferences designed to establish
the latitude and longitude, aa well
as the breadth and depth of Allan
A. Ryan's personal fortune.
Ryan, a relatively young financier,
promoter- and son of Thomas Fortune
Ryan, one of the leading financiers of
New York, has again developed Into a
Wall street sensation. It was only a
few months ago that he startled .the
financial district by cornering stocks of
the Suits Motor company.' was ejected
from his seat on the New York Stock
exchange and entered a suit for a mil'
lion . dollars' damage -against the ex

Ryan's story of today is a story of
many millions. And it has a direct
bearing on the great slump In securities
prices which has marked stock market
transactions of . recent weeks. ' It in
volves motors and oil promotion, in
which classes of promotions millions
have been turned over during the last
year. But, while vast secrecy has sur
rounded the latest . Ryan sensation, it
would appear evident that the course of
the great banks was decided upon to
protect loans they had made to the
financier on collateral which had
slumped in' value during the recent mar
ket slide.
Ryan himself has expressed his com
plete lack of concern over the out
look. In fact it has been declared with
confidence by those who know that
Ryan's nominal assets should be be
tween $20,000,000 and $25,000,000. where
as his liabilities are. said to be but
$16,000,000.

Williams ' today gave out a short
formal statement following a conference

were efforts by New York banks to
make it appear that his financial af

Ryan.
"There are very few national banks,

college was agreed upon before Bishop
w. v. snepard left for the East about
two weeks ago to attend the spring con

Dr. Hickman is regarded as one of the

"I am not accepting the presidency

Hickman said. "I see a great opportun

great responsibility rests upon me to see
that she does." Old time Methodist
teachings including former evangelistic
methods, are to find a prominent place
in the curriculum, he said. With the
consent of the bishop Dr. Hickman will

All the churches in- the Oregon confer

Hickman will be the presiding elder.
This will give him the opportunity of

tor gave assurances before" leaving that
he will do all that is possible to pro

The five cays which the president

3RJAMAICA
Dr. G.L. Large -
Fined $2000
For Violating
Narcotic Act
After retracting his plea. of not
guilty and entering one of guilty In
the federal court this morning. Dr.
C. L. Large was fined by Judge Wol
verton $2000 on a grand Jury indict
ment of 32 counts charging him with
violation of the Harrison narcotic
act.
Counsel for Dr. Large told the court
that the plea was being' changed with
the understanding that no jail sentence,
be imposed. f
During4 the summer and fall of 1918
Dr. Large engaged in the wholesale
business of supplying drug addicts with
their daily quota. The government ob
tained the names of 29 of his daily cus
tomers and 29 counts of the indictment
charge him with prescribing narcotics
not for the cure of legitimate patients.
Another count charges "he obtained
large supplies of morphine and cocaine
by illegal '.methods; another that he
failed to keep duplicates of his prescrip
tions as required by law and another
that he failed to keep his records open
for Inspection to Internal revenue agents.
Assistant United States Attorney Hall
S. Lusk told the court that Dr. Large
prescribed cocaine and morphine for
addicts and left the packages at a drug
store. The addicts are said to have
paid the druggist for the narcotics and
to have left an additional sum for the
doctor.
So cleverly was the scheme handled
that Local Agent W.iR. Wood, who is
known to many addicts, was unable to
obtain convicting evidence. Wood ar
rested Dr. Large once and the case was
compromised by payment of a $200 fine
to the internal revenue department, at
which time he was apprised of govern
ment narcotic laws. Today In 1 court
counsel for Dr. Large plead 04 for leni
ency on the grounds of ignorance of the
law. In order to secure enough evidence
to bring about the indictment Wood,, se
cured the assistance of . an operative
from another city who was not known
in Portland. Dr. Large was given 30
days in which to pay his fine. The doc
tor resides at 6254 First street, but
formerly lived' in Forest Grove.
