Mr. Monks (minted oot tha tha Mount Hood Company obtained wster rlBhta to the Bull Run and Candy rivers and that at ona time the city had only the rlitht to use water for domestic purposes, and In the case of the Pandy Hirer only to the use of the flood waters. "Several membera of the Council de alre to aee the city's wster rlarhta In the Bull Run reserve fully protected." aid Mr. Monks.

Assertions that It has prior rights to the mater of Bull Run River, and that It Is uslnsr this advantace to force ti;e city to grant Its franchise and other rlMs. have been met with scorn by offi cials of the company. The Mount Hood Company, say ofrl rlala. does not Intend to use Bull Run water for Its hydraulic power plant, but. on the contrary, la spending about . fr the construction of a tunnel throush which It will divert the water of the IJttle Sandy River a mile out of ita course and deposit It In the Bull Run far below the Intake of the city water de partment. The water then will be carried In the Bull Run for more than a mile to the lower plant now being erected, where the ssrae quantity that Is placed In the stream will be removed for power gen eration. The courts have held that a river Is a common carrier, and that any person who deposlta water In It at one place may remove the same amount at an other place farther down the stream. Illght Below Intake. The Mount Hood Company has estab lished rlft-hta to nee Bull Run water below the ctty'a Intake, but as there la little left after the city satisfies Its needs, the company haa no Intention of exercising this right. Provlalon to use the water of the Little Sandy has been made Instead. At the conclusion of a conference yesterday morning between Mayor Rushlight and Councilman Burgard and Wallace. Iputy City Attorney Tomllnson waa Instructed to prepare two ordlnancee for preaentatlon to the City Council, one providing; that no water main under eight inchea be laid hereafter within the city limits and the other providing that 4 per cent In stead of per cent be paid for the proposed public dock bonds.

Kdwards. owners of the building which Architect P. L. Wllllame started to erect t Belmont street snd Grand ave nue without having obtained a permit. The Building Inspector explains that It has been necessary to stop the work on the building because Mr. Wllllame did not make hla plans conform to the building; code before applying for his permit. The letter In part la: t fee that there Is no reaena why a per mit snould not be taken out. and cannot anderstaad why there haa been no attempt en the part of the architect to comply with the building rode, and ea arrange for the leeoaace of a permit. It has been eussested to the architect t the proper thing for him to do was to rhanse his plans to oonform to our Inter pretation of the building code, to obtain a r-ermtt and start the work. If he or yon ebject to anr of the changes which will have to be made, an appeal to the board ef appeals should be wade, and then the matter can com up before It for final ettlement.
