Engineer Reports on Survey
Toward Roseburg
ONE PERCENT OVER RANGE
Marshfleld's Enibaslasm Increases, and
Hoie Money Will be Balstd to
Continue Woik
Special to the Evening Review.
MARSHFIKLLV Or., June 11.
Chief Engineer P. A. Haines, of the
Coos Bay, Oregon and Idaho Railway,
who has been out for several days
with a party of surveyors, returned
heie today with the information that
the first twenty miles of the proposed
railroad between this city and Rose
burg has been surveyed over two dif
ferent summits of the coast range.
He finds that he can get over the
range with a grade of lees than one
per cent and says the dlffculty in get
ting over the mountains to Douglas
County will not be as great as lira:
feared. Another surveying gang will
be put into the field immediately and
more money Is to be solicited to carry
on the work with all possible ra
pidity. Engineer Haines' report has stim
ulated local enthusiasm over the rail
road project, and the outlook for the
road is more promising than at any
time ever known. The routes locat
ed by Engineer Haines are being kept
a secret to prevent their being appro
priated by any other concern. It is
proposed to complete tho survey
from the summit of the range to
Marshfleld by the end of spring ot
this year.
To Attempt Another Itlufl' on Hill
ami fltirrimnii
PORTLAND. Or., June ll.-July
1-2 are the dates for the meeting of
the Oregon-Idaho Development Con
gress, at Vale, Malheur county, in
this state, and a number of Portland
business men will arrange to attend.
Governor BeiiRon, of this state, and
Governor Brady, of Idaho, are down
for addresses, and other speakers are
on the program. They include: C.
E. 8. Wood, of Portland; Judge S. A.
Lowell, of Pendleton; E. M. Heigho,
of Weiser; Addison Bennett, of Irrl
gon, and President Homan, of Wil
lamette University.
Citizens of Oregon and Idaho or
ganized the league in 1908, and have
had several meetings since that time,
which have resulted in arousing an
Interest in the development of the
hitherto neglected territory. A move
will probably be made at the meet
ing in July, tending to impress both
Hill and Harriman with the import
ance of building into central Oregon,
of tapping the fertile stretches of
the Snake river valley, in Idaho. How
thiB will be accomplished will be de
termined at the meetings, as the cir
cular sent to the Portland Chamber
of Commerce refers to the fact that
"Hill has told the people of Portland
that he has no idea of building into
the interior of Oregon; and Harri
man has gone to Europe for his sum
mer vacation." Self help will prob
ably be recommended in the matter,
and joint action of the states be sug
gested in building branch lines into
the Isolated sections.
Lumber Industry Reviving.
SEATTLE, Wash., June 11 Wash
ington lumbermen are highly pleased
today by eastern news indicating the
revival of the lumber Industry, after
several weeks of depression caused by
the agitatlou for a lower tariff, which
caused intending buyers to withhold
orders in anticipation of cheaper lum
ber from British Columbia. Orders
for lumber, aggregating over 12,000,
000 feet, which is expected to bring
1200,000 into the northwest, reached
this city today today from eastern
cities. This Is the first big order re
ceived here for nearly a year.

Ijargeut of Cantilever Type In World
Kiht Years In lliiihlimr and
Cost . $12,500,000.
NEW YOUK, June 11. The
Queensborough Bridge, the fourth
material link (including the inter
borough tunnel) between Manhattan
and Long Island .which were without
connection when tho first bridge
across the Kast River was finished.
will be formally opened tomorrow
with imposing ceremonies.
The new bridge is the largest can
tilever structure used as a public
thoroughfare In the world. The
length of the bridge proper is 3725
feet. The length of the river span
west of the Dlackwell's Inland is, 1 1 82
feet, and there are only three bridges
with longer Bpans In existence. Then
comes, however, the length of the
river span cast of the Island, 984
feet, and the length of the Island
span, fi30 feet. Tho clear height of
the bridge above ineanhigh water Is
135 feet.
Eight yeai'B were required to com
plete the bridge. There are about
54,000 cubic yards of masonry In the
piers and foundations, while the steel
In the superstructure weighs approxi
mately 50,000 tons. The length of
the Manhattan approach Is 10G9
feet, and of the Queens approach,
2630 feet, making the total length of
the bridge, including the approaches,
over 8000 feet.
In its present condition the bridge
does not provide the greatest capacity
of which' It is capable. As designed
for its ultimate arrangement, it will
have four elevated railroad tracks on
Its upper floor aud two promenades
eleven feet wide. The lower floor Is
to contain two outside trolley tracks,
two inside trolley track and a road
way thirty-six feet wide. With car
lines alone it is estimated the bridge
will have a capacity of 150,000,000
persons annually.
The bridge Is expected to bring
great benefits to Long Island. The
island itself Is brought many miles
closer to the heart of Manhattan,
which Is made easier of access to the
suburban dweller, white the farmer
can bring his produce to the city with
less expense and effort. To Man
hattan the benefits of the new steel
roadway are also great. The congest
ed population on the upper east side
has a new outlet, the cityV seekers
for pleasant homes have fresh oppor
tunities, and' to the automobltist
there are opened new routes to the
resorts and country places of Long
Island.

opecial to the Evening Review.
WASHINGTON'. June 11 Another
effort of the progressive republicans
and democrats to break the rntms of
the Aldrich forces failed today, when
La Follette's amendment to woolen
schedule of the tariff bill was voted
down, 32 to 44. La Follette's amend
ment had for Us object the conllning
of the duty on mixed cloths to the
wool in them. A similar amendment
proposed by Dolliver was defeated
yesterday, 31 to 43.
Another move to bring a vote on
the income tux amendment is In pro
gress this afternoon. The programme
is that Bailey shall present his
amendment and a motion to amend
Is to be made by Cummins to reduce
the proposed tax from three to two
per cent and to Include a provision
for a tax upon the income of corpor
ations. It is said Uailey will accept
both changes and that all who favor
an income lax will unite on Un
amended measure.
The outcome Is uncertain, but the
indications points, it is said, to the
reference of the whole subject to
the Judiciary committee with Instruc
tions to report at the next session.
