With but one slight amendment, the house yesterday afternoon accepted the public utility bill, as it passed the senate last week. This bill, which was fathered by Senator Cox, was substituted for the Moren bill In the (house. Bpth ara practically the same, both following the Hughes lav in New York. ( By the terms of this code, the present railroad commissioners will be the public utility commission ers until their present term expires. The governor is given the power to appoint their successors, j These commissioners will have general supervision over railroads, street car companies, telephone and telegraph, steamship, gas, electric, heating, water companies and other public service corporations. Public service Institutions owned by cities, however, are not under the jurisdic tion of the state commission. A limit of five cents -s placed on street car fares within incorporated' ! cities. The commission will aJso have the power to regulate the rates of other corporations, and to provide I schedules Insuring adequate Bervice. j And this, too, has been accom- pllshed by this bill. When the pub lic utilities commission fixes the phys 1 ical valuation of any public service corporation, the asessors cannot row er It, though they may raise it. o Supreme Court Opinions. Declaring that under the law it was intended that the board of control and the state desert land board should work in conjunction, the su preme court this morning held that the board of control had the right to direct the state engineer to grant only the applications of persons for the appropriation of water rights as would secure a final contract with the state desert land board, reversing the decision of the circuit court of this county in the case of R. S. Cook Ingham and W. A. Thatcher against the state board of control, state en gineer and Finkelnburg, trustee. The plaintiffs made application for the appropriation of the waters of j Powder river on March 18, 1909, and $7500 One of the best 30-acre tracts in the valley, good 7- room house, up-to-date, fine family orchard, plenty of small fruit, good outbuildings, 25 acies in oats and vetch, some personal property.

The sultan's troops have been re peatedly defeated in the fighting that has now lasted nearly a week, and to- on March 31 ln the morning, filed supplementary papers. On the same day, ln the afternoon, Finkelnburg made application, and the state en gineer held that both would be a public menace, and referred the Rebel forces who hold nearly alll the j day their position Is so critical that territory between Alcazar Keblr and unless Mulai can engineer a coup his Fez, today proclaimed the restoration overthrow seems inevitable, of Abdul Aziz as sultan in the place j Meager telegraph reports say that of Mulai Hafld.

The board directed him to grant the ap plication to the party securing a final contract with the desert land board, and Finkelnburg was successful. A writ of review was sued out by the plaintiffs, and sustained by the cir cuit court, on the ground that the board had acted1 on matters which were beyond Its jurisdiction. Astoria Not Liable. Asserting that where a city exer cises due care in the employment of competent officials in street improve ment work It Is not liable for in juries which flow therefrom to real property, the supreme court reversed the lower court of Clatsop county in the case of Joseph Giaconl against the city of Astoria. The city, in this oase, sought to fill in a hollow In a street, with the result that a slide followed, carrying trees and stones on the plaintiff's propery, and he sued for $2000 damages. Other Cases Decided. The circuit court of Coos county was affirmed ln the case iof the Ben nett Trust Company against Henry Sengstacken, et al., a suit Involving the constitutionality of the act creat ing the port of Coos Bay.
