FIRE LIMITS FIXED Council Committee Completes East Side Task. ORDINANCE IS PREPARED Measure Probably Will Be Passed by City Legislative Body Ex- " ceptlon Made In Favor of Southern Pacific. Ktre limits for the East Side were map ped out yesterday by the special Council committee appointed for that purpose. The ordinance prepared by the commit tee, from the present outlook. Is to be passed by the Council at its meeting Wednesday. A compromise was made -yesterday with the Southern Pacific and E. M. Brannlck and "Whitney L. Boise. ' who have been leading the tight for the Are limits, agreed to the ordinance. Instead of running up East First street from East Burnslde as originally planned, the west line will go up Kast Second street to East Oak street and then down'. East Water, thus enabling , the , Southern Pacific to erect a. frame freight house on the northwest corner of East Oak and East Second streets. If the ' line had followed up East First street the railroad company could not have erected a frame building, as it would have been . within the fire limits. Curtis O. Sutherland, representing the Southern Pactflc. said that If the site at .East Oalr and East Second streets was Included hi the limits that the Southern Paotflo would not erect the freight-house, which the' East Side business men are anxious to have built. The -Southern Pacific Company has taken out a permit to erect, a depot, at the corner of East Morrison and East First streets, which is lnaide the limits. Xow that the permit has been taken out the company cannot be prohibited from erecting the building. An effort will be made to induce the Southern Pacific to put up a stone or brick building instead of a frame structure. The fire limits as recommended by the special committee are as follow: Commencing at a point 95 feet south of the south line of Hawthorne avenue where the same Is intersected by a line 100 feet west of the west line of East Water street; thence east on a line 8S feet south of the south line of Hawthorne avenue and parallel therewith to a line 90 feet east of the east line of Grand avenue; thence north on a line SO feet east of ana parallel with the east line of Grand avenue to a line 100 feet north of the north line of Bast Burnslde street; thence west on a line 100 feet north of and parallel with the north line of East Burnslde street to the cen ter line of East Second1 street; thence south on the center line of Hast Second street to the center line of East Oak street; thence west on the center line of East Oak atreet to a line loo feet west of the west line of East Water street; thence south on a line 100 feet west of and parallel with the west line of East Water street to the place of beginning. An exception is made of blocks 102 and 121, where it is impracticable to erect stone or brick buildings because of the boggy nature of the ground.

GAS FRANCHISE TAKEN UP ECONOMY COMPANY'S PERMIT IS READVERTISED. . After Sleeping in Pigeonhole, the Amended Ordinance Is Given . New Lease, of. Life. The Colson gas franchise which has been before ' the Council for several months, has 'been revived by the etreet committee and tias been orderd readver tised. The franchise has been asked by the Economy Gas Company, represented by Lawyer B. S. Pague. The franchise, when originally present ed, was favorably recommended by the street committee. When it was before the Council for final passage It was amended and referred back to the street commit tee, where it has been in a pigeonhole for about two months. Mr. Pague appeared before the committee yesterday and asked that It be taken up, and the com mittee authorized that It be readvertised. Mr. Pague said that his company has the backing of Jl.000,000 or more, and if a franchise is obtained a plant and works as large as those of the Portland Gas Company will be built. He declined to make known the names of his associates, but declared the company is acting in good faith. After a wrangle between Interested property-owners, the committee recom mended to the Council that the petition for the macadam improvement of Hib baxd street. In Montavllla, be granted. H lobar d street is half a mile In length, extending from the Base Line road to the Hibbard Addition. It will be the first street in Montavllla to be improved. C. M. Idleman. the attorney, on behalf of property-owners who signed a remon strance, declared that the Improvement would cost not less than $13,000, which he said was prohibitive.. He said that the assessment for the improvement . would amount to nearly as much as the pres ent value Of much of the nronertv Raw I era! of the property-owners declared that the property will -be greatly enhanced in value when the street is Improved, ' Md said it will be the opening wedge for other street improvements in Montavilla. They said the streets in the suburb are in 'hor rible condition, and that they never have been improved, with the exception of the Base Line road. The last 3i feet of East Twenty-first street, where It runs into the Southern Pacific shops, ,is to be Improved with macadam. The improvement, which was authorized by the committee yesterday, will cost about J850, of which the Southern Pacific will pay $400. The street Is prac tically impassable, and in case of fire the apparatus probably could not get through the street. LOSES HER DAMAGE SUIT Miss fsheman Nonsuited in Action Against Portland Railway. Injuries of such a nature as to give the impression she is addicted to drink were caused by a streetcar accident which be fell Miss Emma Sheman last Summer, ac cording to her statement In the State Cir cuit Court yesterday during the trial of her suit against the Portland Railway Company. Judge Gantenbein granted a nonsuit when the case was ready for the jury.- It was shown that Miss Sheman stepped from a car. and was struck by a second car coming from another direc tion. By getting off in this way she was guilty of contributory negligence, so the court held. Inasmuch as there is a city ordinance which requires that passengers be prevented by a. metal gate from alight ing In- this manner and the testimony showed that no such gate was In use at the time. Miss Sheman intends to take the suit up again and- include this phase of the matter In her pleadings. The young woman was dragged 60 feet and badly hurt about, the head by the ac cident. Since, then she has been unable to work, she said. A few weeks after the accident she reported for duty in one of the department stores, but she frequently became dizzy and reeled about in such fashion that the other girls accused her of drinking. ; .

A detailed statement of the deficien cy warrants on account of 'the prose cution of the case shows that the Pink erton detective agency: has been paid $15,013.88 for services and expenses, and the Thiel agency has been paid $2092.75. The bill for attorneys and their expenses foots up to $24,559.15. Of this sum $5000 was paid Mr. Borah and $19,039.15 to Mr. Hawley. while W. A. Stone was paid $500. The list as published does not show what por tion of. the legal expense was for fees and what for expenses. Local detec tives and guards consume much of the remainder, wrTile $3000 Is added for interest. After killing off the anti-pass bill that was passed by the House some weeks ago. the Senate switched around and put through, two county division bills unanimously. These are the House bills creating the counties of Bonner and Twin Palls, the former from the upper portion of Kootenai and the latter from the west ern part of Cassia, The House passed the bill making the legal rate for advertising $1 an inch. It indefinitely postponed White's bill to abolish capital punishment, and in committee of the whole recommend ed for passage the bill for the creat ing of Clearwater County. This cuts oft the eastern end of Nez Perces. The boundaries were changed in some par ticulars. The- optional license bill was taken up again and a sliding scale of license adopted, this being from $300 to $750. An. additional clause provided that no licenses shall be granted over remon strance of a majority of the voters of the precinct. In this form the. bill was recommended for passage.
