WHITMAN CASE
IS CONTINUED
Testimony Is introduced to
Show Chinese Gamble, but
Chief Is Not Implicated

The trial Of Chief OF Police Whitman,
charged with dereliction Of duty and
incompetency, was continued before the
Police Commissioners at the Hall Of
Justice last evening. Little testimony
of a nature that would tend to prove
the charges against the accused Chief
was introduced. Some of the evidence
would have served better in the case of
Sergeant of Police Ellis, already con-
victed and awaiting his fate at the
hands Of the board.
When the meeting adjourned Com
missioner Reagan, In response to a
question from Attorney Kahn, an
nounced that the witnesses for the
prosecution were like sands of the
sea-" many in number, and the pros
poets are that the case will continue
several sessions.
Hugo Huedner, q guide. was the
first witness called. He stated that the
appearance of Chinatown, so far as
gambling districts were concerned, had
changed considerably since Ellis was
removed and. Cook. assumed charge Of
the detail. No Chinese entered any Of
the clubs and the lights in front Of the
places had been extinguished. James
Lambert, watchman employed by a
club at Al Ross alley, followed Huedner
to the stand and, after describing his
duties and the furnishing of the
Clubs" proceeded to make a state
ment that was injurious to the case of
Sergeant Ellis.
Lambert said that about the middle
of November Ellis approached him
while he was on duty and told him
to warn the members Of the club that
Chief Whitman was in Chinatown
Ellis also en1oined him to close the
place for q time. Lambert lost no time
in communicating with the lookout"
and soon stream of Chinese flowed
into the alley.
SALOMON TALKS.
Attorney :Salomon then took the
stand and revealed the contents of a
letter he had written to Chief Whitman
in November. 1903. Salomon had for
clients two Chinese, who desired to start
a gambling institution at $50 Jackson
street. These men were warned by
other gamblers that they would have
to contribute $500 month to fund for
police protection and Salomon advised
them not to do so. When they started
the club they were raided by Sergeant
Campbell and his squad twice within
one week. and 1T was not until after
they had informed the attorney that
they had concluded to pay the money
that they We're allowed to run without
police interference. Whitman removed
Campbell from Chinatown and Cook
was put in his place.
Stephen A. Byrne, well-known col
lector for the gas company in that Sec
ton, also noticed a change in China
town since Ellis and his men had left,
and Henry B. Osgood. a guide, realized
the same condition of affairs. Osgood
was always conscientious in taking
parties through Chinatown and when
asked concerning the gambling dens he
designated them as clubs and benev-
olent associations" because he had

PORTLAND DOGS DOOMED.

Portland, Sept. II. = After many vexatious delays the band of head-hunting, dog-eating Igor rotes from the island of Luzon have arrived at last and the Lewis and Clark exposition is now the scene of daily tom tom dances and frequent dog feasts. Poor Fido and his brother Carlo are hiding out, but the Igorrotes will get them sooner or later, tor they have less than six weeks in which to devour all of Portland s surplus dogs.
 The Igorrotes, forty in num- Der, male and female, arrived at Vancouver, B. C., aboard the United States steamship Athen- ian direct from Manila. They were taken to Manila from their homes in the remote hills of the island, never before having seen a civilized city. These lgorrotes are not the ones who were at St. Louis last year. They are quite new to America and their first taste of United States dog was enjoyed in their village at the Portland fair a couple of days after their arrival.
 The village awaited them in what may be called skeleton form, and they set to work and covered the framework of their houses with material which they brought along. An lgorrote would not feel at home in house entirely made by other hands.
 The Igorrote village is located next to Homer Davenport s pheasant farm at the edge of the Trail, where the weird music of the tom toms is heard every day and evening.

Status Of Unionism.

Nothing could have illustrated bet
ter the real status OF organized labor
than the strike in New York, and the
quick failure that has followed. When
the strike was declared It was in the
name of national bodies, the eharac-
ter and purpose of which command
respect. When the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, for instance.
makes a statement of grievances.
there is no doubt in the public mind
that there is substantial basis for the
action, and that the fight will be con-
Quoted in an orderly way.
The strike under consideration was
believed TO have the sanction and
practically to be at the initiative OF
this brotherhood. At once it assumed
dignified standing, excited sympathy,
and the hope that 1t would succeed.
The brotherhood and another nation
al organization repudiated the strike.
and this was the end OF it.
The fact seems to have been made
plain that the ordering Of the strike
was breach of faith. This was not
to be tolerated, and that 1t was soon
made clear that organized labor was
the first and most effective in de-
nouncing it incidentally killed the
strike, but it did Euch more. It
demonstrated the real plane of union
ism. There is no place for the agita-
tor, the disturber, the leader who
leads toward error and confusion.
The organization that succeeds, that
commands esteem. is for the con-
servation OF rights, for legitimate
protection. And it keeps absolute
faith with itself, its associates, and
with capital. For this reason it is a
power, and a power not to be dread
ed or feared.
