12 THE HOKXIXG OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1906. BUILDS TO NORTH THE SOUND Little Doubt Entertained That Harriman Backs the Enterprise. REASONS ARE ANNOUNCED With tlie Hope of . JEorcing Hill's Consent to UseOld Union Pa " cific night of Way, Xorth Bank Eight Continues. Announcements are expected in a short time of the intention of the Union Pacific system to push a tentacle north from Portland to Seattle and Tacoma. -Advices from, the Sound leave no doubt of- the in terests acquiring terminal grounds, there, and the recent incorporation of the Washington Northern, -with a capital stock of $500,000, and -with the avowed intention of -building from -Portland to Seattle, proves beyond doubt that the firsf.. steps for reaching the Sound have been taken bj lir. Harriman. That the branch to the "Washington har bors has not been built earlier in the rail road history -of the Northwest has "been wondered .at, by . railroad men. The nat ural objectives of a transcontinental road such as the Union Pacific are the ports within .easy reach of its Western ter minuB. With lines tapping the Sound country, the Harriman lines will reach every prominent harbor on the Coast, while the smaller shipping points are be ing "reached by branches, such as the Drain-Coos Bay line. ' Add to the Proof. Balroad men just returned from the North add their testimony to" the over whelming proof of immediate Harriman construction to Puget Sound. The belief is general that construction work will be be gun on such a Jine "within the present year, "while it will be completed In 1S07. Estimates of cost cannot now be arrived at, but it is predicted that the $500,000 named as the capital stock of the Wash ington Northern represents a nominal be ginning merely, and that much more than that sum will be expended in building a j tt . .1... .1K..J , c? . . .1 .ut.n ! first-class roadbed to the Sound cities. While the invasion of the Harriman roads. Into Hill territory may fce regarded in some quarters as a .-retaliation for the line down the north bank of the Columbia and the entry Into what has heretofore been the preserves of Mr. Harriman, It Is not the belief of many railroad men that this is the motive for the construction northward. A promising field, of great natural resources, rich In freights, grow ing more valuable each year as passenger territory, and bound in the future to be the home of a dense population, these are the Inducements for an extension of the Union Pacific tracks, made possible by the settlement of the Northern Securities case and the dissolution of the traffic agreements formerly existing between the railway magnates. Routes to the Sonnd. Routes to the Sound rfrom Portland open to the Harriman road are Tjelng discussed and these give rise to considerable spec ulation. It Is regarded as practically set tled, however, that the new line will be built along what is known as the old Union Pacific grade, paralleling the pres ent tracks of the Northern Pacific from Ivaiama to Tacoma. The Union Pacific once had an interest In this property, and in connection with the St. Paul, Minneap olis & Manitoba, a road for which Mr. Hill was truntee, started to build a road from Portland to Seattle. This was about '.5 years ago, and parts of the work along the old right of way are still visible from the tracks of the Northern Pacific. Grad ing was done at many points, prepara tions were made for the building of bridges at points along the Lewis River, and the site for the bridge across the Columbia River at Vancouver to be built by the Portland & Seattle was located and material collected for the approach. A pier was actually built In the river, and operations by the Portland &. Seattle arc now being commenced from this same pier. The name of the corporation formed fit that time for the road to be built jolnt y to the Sound was the Portland &. Puget Sound. , Old Project Abandoned. With the approach of hard times the project was abandoned and the. right of way passed from the control of the Portland & Puget Sound and was later acquired by Mr. Hill. It Is said he still owns It, having paid taxes on It for years. If this shall be the route chosen by the Harriman people for their road to the north, the right of way has yet to bo acquired from Hill. Harriman s sup posed bitterest enemy. And here, say wise ones, enters tho why and where fore for tho opposition offered at all points to the entry of the Portland & Seattle into Portland. That the fight against tho north bank road will be continued by the Wallula Pacific Co lumbla Valley and O. R. & N.. all Har riman properties, at strategic points along the Columbia, at Macgly Junc tion and everywhere that the law's de- Jay can harass the Hill road, and when tho Portland & Seattle chafes at dclay that offers will be made of ceasing ujl -opposition to the north banlcroad in return for the right to build th'e Wash ington Northern on the orlg-inaUUnlon Pacific survey, is alleged In some' quar ters. That the ultimate victory of the Portland & Seattle .in entering Port land against O. R. & N. opposition is only a question of time Is conceded, but with legal technicalities and various suits at their command, counsel for the Harriman interests can postpone the advent of the Hill road materially. Reasons for Tactics. Tnat the Harriman lawyers in their light against the Hill road have somo such adjustment In view is shown. say soraf bj" an attempted enforcement of a truce with Mr. Hill a short time ago, when tho Portland & Seattle was of fered trackage, for a consideration of course, over the O. R. &. N. from Wal lula to Portland if operations on the north bank of the Columbia would be stopped. This was seriously consid ered, it is said, but Mr. Hill bad al ready gone too far with his announce ments of road building to withdraw from his survey from Kcnnewick, Then, too. the probability of another road coming" down the north bank If lie gave up the route, -deterred Mr. Hill from vacating his survey. Should tho Harriman forces gain the right to follow the old Union Pacific survey. It would prpbably be necessary to gain the right to run over the pres ent 'Northern Pacific tracks from Ka lama to: Vancouycr,- as the way down the bank of the river Is rough and Is said to.-admit of only one track In many places. Possibly the bridge across the, Columbia at Vancouver would be used jointly also. From the Columbia River the Washington Northern would run Its 'trains over the St. Johns cx tcnsjpn across the steel bridge into Portland. No confirmation can be had locally of -tho intoiuion - to connect .the O. R. is not believed to be conclusive proof that such a road is not already pro jected. Every Indication points to tho early construction of the Pug-et Sound extension of the Union PacIQc system. BIG INCORPORATION IS 3IADE Company Formed for Building Oper e rations for United Railways. Articles of incorporation of the "Los An geles Railroad Construction Company were filed yesterday at Salem, tho capital stock being named at $3,000,000. Tho in corporators are' M. H. French, K. J. How ard and W. It. Gould, men. Identified with the United Railways Company, a combi nation of Los Angeles capital lately formed in Portland. The objects of the new company, as given in the articles of incorporation, are to engage generally in the construction of telegraph and telephone lines, railroads, etc. The principal office -will be in Port land. Officers of the new company already chosen are M. H. French, president, and Arthur G. Coombs, secretary and treas urer. Mr. French Is in charge of the con struction -work of tho United Railways Company, and is said to hai;e more lines of electric railways In California to nis credit than any other railroad builder in that state. Mr. Coombs has.for iho last ten years, been manager of the firm of Gray Bros., of San Francisco, manufact urers of artificial stone pavements. E. J. Howard, one of the incorporators, is a wealthy brewer of Erie. Pa. W. It. Gould, the third named In the articles of Incorporation, Is an employe of the UiItod Railways Company, in the auditing de partment. The Los Angeles Railroad Construction Company is the second $3,090,000 corpora tion formed by the group of Los Angeles capitalists who came to Portland a few weeks ago to invest heavily In property here. The latest organization will do the construction work for the United Rail ways Company. During , the intervals of building huge combinations of capital the backers of the United Railways project buy and lease prominent business blocks of Portland. Saturday they bought the Chamber of Commerce, and yesterday leased the Russell & Blyth building, at Sixth and Ankeny, for five, years. That the Los Angeles capitalists are to become permanent Portland residents is assured by the bringing here of thefr wives and the purchase of residence prop erty. Mrs. J. Whyte Evans, Mrs. Bcemla Larrabee and Mrs. J. W. E. Taylor are expected to arrive here from the south to night, and Mrs. M. H. French and others will reach here March L Pleased With Oregon. W. T. Wilson, of Buffalo. N. Y.. gen eral manager of the New Tork Central West Shore fast freight lines, Is In Port land for a short visit, accompalned by his wife. He has never been this far West before, and Is Interested In the different conditions of railroading that prevail here. tt - t .i....,) .. . Cirtcnn nrifl does not JO JICL3CVl mrt. w.wo hesitate to say so. Thlnes look good to me," was the way he put it yesterday. As the head of a fast llrelght ss'stem. Mr. Wilson can give the far Western rail- mads nolnters on freight-hauling. His trains leave New Tork at night and reach Chicago the third morning, making the trip of nearly 1000 miles In CO hours. The trains consist of CO cars at that, and haul perishable freights and high-class mer chandise. 3Ir. Wilson explains the time by saying the speed is made because of level tracks, with grades ana curves elim inated to a great degree, while In the West he finds trains climbing mountains and swinging around abrupt curves. . State to Be Paid for Roadway. OLTMPIA. Wash.. Feb. 12. Special.) The Attorney-GenerallB office was today served with notice that February 28 the Portland & Seattle Railway Company would seek to condemn a right of way In Klickitat and Skamania Counties across the east half of lot 1 and the west half of lot 2 of section 23. T. 3 N.. R. 10 E. Assistant Attorney-General Booth has rendered an opinion addressed to Highway Commissioner J. M. Snow to the effect that the state has prior right to Its loca tion of a roadway across the Cowlitz Pass and Snoqualmle Pass. The question arose on account of the attempt to secure the state highway for a railroad right of way. The opinion oi me Aitomey-vrunerai Ik to the effect that if the portion sought by the Tailroads Is through a pass or defile it can be appropriated by the railroad, but only oy paying the state for It. Points to Union Pacific Alliance. TACOMA, Wash.. Feb. 12. Special.) Edward Cooklngham. of Portland, presi dent of the Tacoma Eastern Railroad Company, admitted today that Udeland block 23. formerly owned by his road, has been sold. President Cooklngham said there was no Immediate change to be made In his road's terminal. He stated however, that the Tacoma Eastern is pre paring to build two additional tracks on Its right of way. and that more tracks would be built In the gulch yard as they are needed. The fact that block 23 Is a part of the tract of tldelands which the Union Pa clflc has secured leads to the belief that the two roads arc allied. Land Company Incorporates. Articles of incorporation of June Land Company were filed in the County Clerk's office yesterday by B. E. FIske. J. H. Flsk and R. G. Morrow; capital. $0000.

Recommendations are made to have the craft hauled out and recaulked and strengthened, The fireboat has been leaking for some time, so it is said. Having a blunt bow. she crowds heavily through the water when under her best speed, and this causes the machinery to Jar consider ably. The inspectors have come to the conclusion that the hull should be mate rially stiffened or accident may result from some of the steam pipes working loose. "We have not condemned the fireboat," said Captain E. S. Edwards, Inspector of Hulls, "but have ordered her hauled out for repairs. The hull appears to be weak In comparison to the machinery. and there Is some danger of the steam pipes working loose when the vessel In crowded. The machinery Is In good shape and in no need of an overhauling. 1 have written a letter to the Mayor and Ex ecutive Board Informing them of the con dition of the hull, and I suppose they will give the matter their attention at the earliest possible moment. The hull is leaking, bull good caulking will fix j -ju. .. I that all right." The vessel was constructed less than two years, ago. under designs furnished by Architect Fred A. Ballln. The Wil lamette Iron Works built the machinery, subletting the contract for the hull and woodwork to the Portland Shipbuilding Company. Under the Federal laws only engineers holding a license from the Gov ernment can operate a boat of this class. According, to the terms of their license they are required to make regular re ports to the Inspectors of hulls and boil ers, and It was In this way the latter became apprised of the vessel's condition. She is allowed to carry but 11S pounds of steam, but at the fire yesterday morn ing from 200 to 250 pounds were employed, causing tremendous vibration and cor responding danger from explosion. These facts were reported to the Inspectors, with the result Indicated. Mayor Lane was given several days In which to make the necessary repairs, and with that object In view will summon : as 1)-Jb:: ra.r" several shipbuilders to a consultation at 2 o'clock this aiteraooe. and probably test the fireboat in a spin on the river. The builders are alleged to have claimed that the vibrations were caused by the heat from the boilers shrinking the tim ber braces underneath. Chief Campbell docs not attach much significance to the matter, and says that the repairs ought not to cost more than SI25. He stated also that the fireboat did splendid service at yesterdays fire. practically saving the Morrison-street bridge as well as the Davis fuel yard. STEADIER ROAXOKE RETURNS Will Resume Operations Between Portland and Los Angeles. Newly painted and In the best of trim, the steamer Roanoke, of the North Pa rtn siMmshlo Company, will reach the harbor this morning, to resume operations between this port and Los Angeles. She will go to coiumwa aocx. w ui charge 200 tons of freight, part of which was picked up at Eureka. She Is sched uled to sail for Los Angeles Wednesday night. , . . The Roanoke caused a surprise by arm -Ing at 2:20 yesterday afternoon, because she left Eureka Sunday aTtcrnoon at l o'clock. The average time .under favor able conditions between the two points Is about SO hours, and the Roanoke beat this by nearly five hours. Her Increased speed la attributed to her new oil-burner!', which were Installed while the vessel was undergoing repairs at San Francisco. Charles P. Doc, manager of the North Pacific Steamship Company, arrived in tnc city yesterday morning to look after ina company's affairs here He said the Roanoke might possibly be chartered to Portland merchants to go on the Alaska, run. but this will not affect the lino to Los Angeles, for another steamer will oc put on la the Roanoke's place should she be turned over to the Northern run. "We. have built up a fair business be tween PorUand and Los Angeles, said Mr. Doe. "and have no intention what ever of wlthdrawlag our steamers, as might have been rumored. The Jeanle will go to Puget Sound occasionally for a cargo of wheat, but the Roanoke or a steamer of her class will continue on the route on regular schedule."

JjIXER OX FIRE. Flames Break Out Between Decks on the Texan. HONOLULU. Feb. 12.-FIrc was discov ered yesterday morning between decks on the Hawaii-American Company's steamer Texan, which arrived on Saturday from The Laxative op Known There are two classes of remedies: those of known qual ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assist ance; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasantsyrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti pation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, a well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge tnatitis a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all mariner of ills.but recommend it for what it really represents, a, laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers: those who are informed to the quality of what they buy and w u ucigo or exceptional meric, ana wno ao not iacK courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy.

Williams Pink Pills Actually Make New Blood and Good Health Follows. The evfl effects that follow many dis eases particularly tho grip and the wasting fevers, such as typhoid and ' malaria, are caused by the bad condition 1 in which these diseases leave the blood. As a result, the flesh continues to fall away, the sufferer grows nervous and irritable, and even slight exertion causes shortness of breath. These are danger ous symptoms and indicate that the system is in a state that invites pneu monia, bronchitis or even consumption. "WTiat is needed is a new supply of rich, red blood to carry health and strength I to every part of the body. Such a. S r c - t i b i . t , specinc uas oeen xouua ana in n mi areas of cases it has been proven that Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People have accomplished this result. ' I was all run down from the effects of the grip," says Mrs. Amelia Hall, of Kb. 5 High street, Jfbrwich Conn., "and could not seem to get strength to walk; could not eat a full meal, my stomach was so weak, and I was so nervous that I could not sleep. I could only stay in oea a iew minutes at a tune, euner mgnc or day. The least little thing would startle me. I had difficulty in breath ing, had frequent fainting spells and felt that every hour would be my last. "My general health was completely wrecked and I had neuralgic and rheu matic pains, dyspepsia, constipation, and f omnia weakness. My physician at tended me tor the grip and again for the condition that it left me in, but I got no strength from the tonics he pre scribed. In fact, nothing Jielped'me until I tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and they cured me. I grew stronger and earned flesh from the time I began taking them. I am satisfied that the pills are all that is claimed for them and X shall always do all I can to make their good qualities known." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are guaran teed to be free from stimulating or harm ful drugs of any description and may be taken without fear or nrjury to the most delicate system.
