Fines Are Tmposed and the Suits Filed Against the Officer Are Withdrawn Special Dispatch to The Call. PORTLAND, Jan. 10.—The Portland Club has capitulated and Sherfff Word has won a victory. Pleas of guilty have been entered In the gambling cases, fines imposed, damage cases against Sherift Word brought by the owners of the Portland Club have been withdrawn and the warfare that has attracted attention . throughout the entire coast will come to an end. Gam- bling will not henceforth be carried on at the club, the owners having pledged themselves to that effect, and the sa- ioon connected therewith will be per- mitted to open. The most powerful force of the lo- cal army of gamblers has been the Portland Club, located at Fifth and Alder streets and owned by Peter Grant, Nathan Solomon and Harvey Dale. Two political campaigns have been fought based largely upon the arrangement effected with the Port- land Club and the machine, and it has been believed by informed politicians that the worsting of the Portland Club would be the shattering of the ma- chine. Not alone the Portland Club, but the other big gambling houses were press- ed to close. Chinese fantan games and poker games in several places were ralded and arrests made. Stopped from gambling, the owners of the Portland Club, in retallation, caused the Institution of suits to re- cover large damages, the aggregate be- ing about $50,000. Still later, resistance on their part continuing, the Sherift took away the gambling apparatus from the Portland Club and stored it at the Courthouse. —_———————— | Drowns in Shallow Water.

Ring to Justice and Thus| NORDER ENDS ALASKAN, FEDD Capitalist Robert Ball of Seattle Kills William Deppe, His Former Partner HIS WEAPON A RIFLE Slayer Claims to Be Ann Arbor Graduate and Once Lived in San Francisco W gH S SEATTLE, Jan. 10.—Word was re- ceived here this evening of the killing of William Deppe by Robert Ball, on Fox Island, in Southeastern Alaska, on the evening of January 2. The principals in the tragedy were, until a few days ago, friends and assoclates in some marble properties located close to the scene of the shooting. They had a business disagreement, which resulted in a personal encounter in this city in which Ball was worsted. Since that time they have been bitter enemies and it is said each had made threats to kill the other. Ball was, until last October, presi- dent of the Great American Marble Company, a concern capitalized at $70,000,000. He was deposed in Octo- ber, but he still claimed an interest in the property and early last month sailed for Alaska in order to protect, as he claimed, his legal rights. Deppe followed a few weeks later and ar- rived on the island the night before the shooting. He went to a cabin ad- joining that of Ball and later went to the cabin occupled by Ball for the purpose, as companions who accom- panied him say, of having a talk rela- tive to the clalm. Deppe was ordered out of the place and when he stopped to remonstrate Ball picked up a rifle and fired. Deppe fell, dying five min- utes later. Deppe’s body was taken to Wrangel, where the authorities were notifled, and officers left for the scene of the shooting to arrest Ball. Considerable mystery enshrouds Ball's past life. He came to this city about two years ago and launched out as a capitalist and promoter. He claimed to be a graduate of the Ann Arbor College of Law and sald that he had practiced his profession In New York and San Francisco. Deppe had been a miner and pros- pector for a number of years and was well known in Alaska. He came to this city from Iow. The hardest thing in the world to convince a woman of is that she snores.
