' Cases Reported
Dr. Calvin S. White, of the state
board of health, ordered the Star
Dairy closed today, and forbade the
further sale of milk 'from the estab
lishment, until permission was given
by the state board. The act followed
an investigation made of the dairy at
the request of Supt. W H. Howell, of
the board of city water commissioners
and City Health Officer Norris, both
of whom had ascertained that all ty
phoid cases recently discovered in
this city were in families taking milk
or cream from the condemned estab
lishment. Eight cases of typhoid made it ap
pear recently that there was danger
of a further epidemic. Rigid investi
gation was made,, and it was found
that six out of the eight sufferers had
been drinking water other than from
the city f iltratioa plant. It was at
first thought that infection had thus
been obtained. '
When it was ascertained that all
eight cases had been drinking Star
Dairy milk, however, the investigation
nrno Dnrilnhtul fi th HniTV iTf tint
only was the well at the establishment
found to be contaminated and unfit for
drinking purposes; but three addition
al cases of the fever were found
amog those employed or living at the
establishment. .
Bacteriological and chemical tests
of th,3 city water, drawn from faucets
In the homes where the typhoid cases
were located, showed the water sup
ply to be more than ordinarily pure.
The state university state agricultur
al college, state board of health and
Dr. Hampton, of Portland, have all re
ported Oregon City's filtered water
absolutely pure., .
In view of this, and the discoveries
at the dairy, it is believed that all the
present cases are to be traced directly
to the Star Dairy milk. Cans at the
dairy have been washed in water from
the contaminated well, and this is re
gardrd by the officials as the source
of infection.
RETURNING ALONE
Sheriff E. T. Mass, who went to
Iiallas, Texas, to extradite "Blackle"

at Oswego, is on his way back to Ore

sheriff left the Texas city Saturday
afternoon, following th.-j filing of an
appeal in the I'.es extradi ion fight to
the criminal court of appeals. There
will be no heUring on the cast until
October or November, at which time
the sheriff will return to make an
other try for the fugi.ive. In the dis
tirct court, to which -'-'Glackie" lies
appealed after his first set-back, the
sheriff won his contentions. '
lies is one of the striking telephone
linemen wh took part in the labor
trouble at Oswego' on May 19 last,
and who subsequently jumped bail
and fled the state. It is alleged by
his fellow tnkers that his action at
the plant of the Home Telephone com
pany brought on the" riot in which J.

caped convict employed by the Heme

WATER REPORT TO
BE READY SOON
COMMITTEE OF THE COUNCIL
HARD AT WORK ON IM
PORTANT PROBLEM
HAVE CONFERRED WITH PORLLAND
Recommendations May be Made
Next Meeting and Action on
v New Supply Will be
Taken Soon
Within the next few days, the wa
ter committee of the city council,
through its chairman Professor Tooze,
expects to have its report ready on
the possibility of securing water for
Oregon City from the Bull Run sup
ply. The committee has had the matter
up with the commissioners of the city
of Portland and has gone over the en
tire" question thoroughly. It has been
in conference with Commissioner Will
H. Daly of the Portland city commis
sion and is putting for;h every effort
to get the subject in concrete form
for its submission to the city council
here.
The subject of pure water hag been
before the city council sometime and
the committee has planned to get the
supply from the same source that fur
nishes the city of Portland. A pipe
lin.3 extending eight miles into the
hills would probably have to be built
to form the connaction and bring the
water to the plant.
With the report will probably be
the committee's recommendations to
the city council and its advice as to
the action that the city fathers shoull
take in furnishing the supply. The
chairman believe? that he will he ahle
to make this report in the nest three
or four days.
A .jport vill also be submitted to
the council in the next few' days on
the rock crusher problem that has
been under consideration for a num
ber of weeks. This matter has also
been under investigation by the com
mittee and the report.-with its recom
mendations will be submitted, proD
ably at the next council meeting.
