MAYoR oF PoRTLANo INDICTED
He and Chief Of Police Refused to En-.

NRlNl 1ANNAAIAh law
Portland. Ore, Jan. 5.-George II.
Williams. once chief justice Of Oregon
Territory. formerly United States sena-
tor from Oregon. attorney general in
President Grants second cabinet, and
now mayor of Portland, with the snow
OF SO winters on his head. was in
dicted by a grand jury Of Mulnomah
county on a charge Of malfeasance In
Office.
The indictment states that on July
10. 1904. Judge Williams. while mayor
of Portland. refused to enforce the
statutes regulating gambling. This law.
which was passed at the last session
OF the legislature, gives the mayor
power to close disorderly houses within
four miles of the city, and it is alleged
that he failed TO avail himself Of that
power.
An indictment against Chief Of Po-
lice Hunt is almost identical with that
returned against Mayor Williams
charging that he knowingly permitted
gambling game to be conducted at
the Portland Club.
