Cars Within Year Will Be Running Between 24th and Broadway and 2 9th and Hawthorne Streets. Grant' Runs 25 Years. By vote of four to one the City Commission yesterday granted a fran chise to the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company for a crosstown treetcar line on the East Side, com mencing at East Twenty-fourth and Broadway and extending southerly to East Twenty-ninth and Hawthorne avenue. Commissioner Bigelow opposed the granting of the franchise on the ground that in his opinion the line should extend from East Twenty fourth to East Twenty-eighth street on Broadway instead of on Halsey, as pro vided in the franchise ordinance as passed. The passage of the ordinance marks the culmination of a long fight for the line, which is considered one of the most important branches of the street car service on the East Side. It will make it possible for people living in Kortheast Portland to go to the south eastern part of the city without pro ceeding all the way to Grand avenue or to the West Side to transfer. Per sons desiring, for example, to go from the Hawthorne district to Montavilla, can transfer at East Twenty-ninth street, instead of having to go to Grand avenue before transferring. The franchise as granted provides for the line over the following route: On East Twenty-fourth street from Broadway to Halsey, on Halsey to East Twenty-eighth, thence south to Stark, east to Twenty-ninth, and south to Hawthorne avenue. It also will make a loop on Dekum avenue from East Thirteenth to East Twenty-fourth. For more than six months delega tions have been dickering over the cjuestion of routing of the cars, some wanting the line to run on Broadway from East Twenty-fourth to East Twenty-eighth, and others asking that It run on Halsey between those streets. Members of the Commission went over the ground several times, and fi nally concluded two months ago that the routing on Halsey street was the most desirable, principally because of a reverse curve which would have to be encountered if the line went on Broadway. Property owners on Broad way agreed to negotiate for a strip of property which, If acquired, would elim inate the bad curve. The negotiations fell through, and accordingly the Com mission decided to grant the route over Halsey street. The franchise provides for the com pletion of tlie construction of the en tire line within one year. The fran chise covers a period of 25 years. The company will pay an annual rental to the city of 4 cents for each foot of track constructed under the provisions of the ordinance. y Commissioner Bigelow announced that he voted against the franchise be cause he believed the route should have been over Broadway instead of over Halsey street. The majority of the property owners on Broadway' wanted the line, while many of the ITalsey-street owners objected to it be ing on their street It is said. ACCUSED INVITES PROOF FE.NDI.ETO.V POLICE CHIEF SAYS GRAFT CHARGES "BLACK LIES." Evangelist Bulgin Reiterate State ment of "Wide Open Town" Al leged Gamblers Arrested. PENDLETON, Or., March 4. (Spe cial.) Characterizing the charges made against him by Evangelist Bui gin as "black lies," denouncing his accusers as "infamous liars," and defying them to prove the accusations, Chief of Po lice Kearney today issued formal de fiance to his accusers. "Those persona, who accuse me of using my office for graft lie when they say I have been taking money," de clared the chief. "Their charges are all lies, black lies, and I demand that If they have the evidence which they say they have that they have me ar rested, prosecute me and send me to the penitentiary if I am guilty. If there is any go-between through whom I have been receiving money I am not aware of the fact. I invite my enemies to produce their evidence or shut up." On the other hand Evangelist Buigln. peaking to an audience of 2000, re peated his original charges, saying: "You have a wide open town, you have not only saloons but blind pigs as well. A drink can be had on Sundays and Indians get booze any time. Gambling is here and you know it. Vice Is pro tected, Sunday laws are violated, pool rooms are run where boys are allowed, and houses of assignation are run by harlots." The Law and Order League, organized at the instigation of the evangelist, held a secret session today. Three men arrested last night by the police were given trials, while a fourth man. James Harris, pleaded guilty to selling liquor without a license and was fined $7.". Ben Hickman was tried on a charge of conducting gambling games, Willis M. Miles on" a gambling charge, W. D. Bonner on a charge of selling liquor without a license. The cases were all taken under advisement. Mrs. J. C. White was also arrested with Bonner. "DETECTIVE" IS UNPLACED Graduate of Correspondence School OfftTs Kspcrt Services. Portland hotel men missed an op portunity to secure the services if they only knew it of a detective of unusual ability, and as proof of his detective skill he has a mimeograph certificate of graduation from a de tective training school of Kansas City by a correspondence course. Some time ago W. L. Crissey, chief of the inquiry bureau of the Commer cial Club, received a letter from a man in Unionville. Mo., asking for the names of the leading "reputable ho tels" of Portland. Yesterday he received a letter thank ing him for the list and asking him to communicate wlthjthe proprietors of the hotels and offer the services of the writer of the letter as a detective.

HUGE CITIES ARE PROBLEM Chairman of Industrial Relations Committee Says There Is De mand for Immediate Solution. Counsel Is Appointed. WASHINGTON, March 4. Wr. O. Thompson, of Chicago, was appointed today counsel of the United States Commission on Industrial Relations.

Mr. Walsh,' discussing work of the Commission, said its efforts would be centered on devising and putting Into operation machinery through which labor disputes can be amicably set tled. Present industrial conditions, he said, furnished a problem imperatively demanding immediate solution. "Industrialism has come on us like lightning out of a clear sky," he added. "Fifty years ago we were an agricul tural people, living in rural districts and small towns in the most part, and having a chance of getting into a firm whenever we tok a job. And now! Huge cities, sucking the very marrow out of the country a change In em ployment from the small store to some monster' corporation that equates in one state and exercises tentacular ac tivities in 20. It has come tso sudden ly that we have not had time to ad Just ourselves to new conditions. "We are still going along as though there had been no economic disturb ance. Of course there is trouble and it is not at all improbable that this trouble may assume the shape of revo lution unless our industrial, political and social institutions are changed to meet the new demands."
