The order of the County Commissioners made in December reducing the wages of the bridge foremen, carpenters and laborers was countermanded yesterday and the employes will receive the same salary through the Winter that they were allowed after the increase was ordered last September. Last Summer foremen received $5 a day, carpenters ?3.50 and laborers $2.50. In September an order was passed raising the pay to $6, $4 and $3 for the .respective classes. The December order, which was to become effective January 1, re duced the pay to the old ligures. The liigher figures are the prevailing scale, Superintendent of Bridges Murnane, re ported, and first-class men cannot be secured for less, he said, because the city and general contractors are paying the liigher scale. Highway Representatives Meet. Representatives from Kast Side or ganizations have been invited to at lend a meeting , of the Multnomah I'luckamas Pacific Highway Association nt Oreison City next Wednesday after noon. Tlie object of this organization is to secure a branch of the Pacific Highway along the river road on the cast side of the Willamette. Part of this road lias been built south from MilwauUie nearly, to Clackamas River nnd covered with crushed rock, and it is urged that it would be a direct route to the proposed interstate bridge. Requisition System Beino Improved. Because of a general mlxup in the system of handling requisitions and supplies in the city service, members of the City Commission are trying to straighten out affairs by culling out some of the features of the old system and substituting new ones. Clerks who handle requisitions met several d iys ago with a special committee ap pointed to adjust affairs. The com mittee, headed by Commissioner Bige low reported to the Commission yes terday and the report was adopted. Dancehall, Proposed. Portland may have a municipal dancehall similar to the municipal halls being operated in Cleveland. Following suggestions from residents of the city interested in dancing. City Commissioner Bigelow has obtained reports of the system of conducting the halls in the East. The reports show the places to be suo cessful financially and above reproach morally. Commissioner Bigelow will turn his information over to Commis fioner Brewster who has charge of the Park Department, under which juris diction such a dancehall would come.

Under a new system of the City Commission less carfare Is being used now than pre vlously, according to a report made yesterday by City Commissioner Dieck. The reduction of the amount is the result of an order against the use of city car tickets by employes going to ana trom work In the mornings and .evenings. Up to the time of the recent oiiler there was no check on the way the tickets wre expended. Now every ticket has to be accounted for. City to Repair Damage. The city will be required to replace and re pair a chimney and some supports under the Gem Hotel in Marquam Gulch which were damaged by a mud Klide there last Sunday. This was the decision yesterday of City Attorney laRoclie after an investigation. The mud slide came trom a till across the gulch made by the city.
