CITY NEWS IN BRIEF
HuxnxQ por the Places. Many young
men, and a few not so young, who ex
pect deputyships -when the new city and
county officials are sworn in. are waiting
.a anxious expectancy for the term to
i-mve, and as there are more men than
p aces, there will be not a few diEap
po nted ones. Already chanxes in tho
original list are said to have been made t
Him . ia tiiuicuit 10 xorecasi woo me
successful ones will be. The old clerks
ore nearly all trying to hold on, and It
aoes not loo as if there will be much
patronage to dispense among the new
crowd. Henry Hoe is now prominently
mentioned for the position of County
'Auditor. City Auditor .Gambell thinks ho
Is In the lead for the posKion, and friends
of Auditor Pope think that he will re
main, where he is, ae his services have
been of the most satisfactory kind. J. W.
Paddock is spoken of as a deputy in some
office, possbly under Circuit Court Cierk
J. P. Kennedy. Will am Connor may be
assistant under Constable McNamee. New
aspirants como to the front daily.
Sold His Water Ballast. It some
times makes quite a difference what kind
of water is used In filling ballast tanks
on board a ship. When Captain Bando-
ler. or the German ship Mabel R!ck
nors, was about to sa.il from Kobe. Japan,
ior tniB port, bo filled his ballast tanks
I with mineral water from tho famous
I "Tansan" spring there. So much of tha
water runs to waste that it costs no more
for ballast than any other water. On
his urrl al here ho proceeded to pump this
Tansan water in the river, but several
persons linking out that it was going to
waste, bought a lot of it and bottled It,
and tho captain realized some $1709 from
it. This Is much better than ueing sand
callast. which costs a lot to get rid of.
The Japanese attribute wonderful powers
to Tansan water, which they assert will
almost bring a dead man to life.
Police Force Mu3t Be Reduced. The
question of reducing the police force will
corn-e up at the next regular meeting 01
the Polico Commissioners, which takes
place July 2. In consequence of As
sessor Greenleafs reduction of valuations
the police fund has been reduced $17,000
per annum, and as a reduction of sal
aries cennot be thought of, a reduction
in the number of men Is the only rem
edy. Chief McLauchlan said last even-
lrg that his force was fmall enough now.
only 48 patrolmen, which divided up Into
three shifts allows but 16 men on watch
at a time. How many officers are to be
let out, or who the unfortunate ones aro
Is not yet decided, but the unwelcome
subject cannot be put off beyond the next
regular meeting of the commissioners.

LAST SYMPHONY CONCERT.
Pitting Close of a Very Successful
Season.
Tho sixth and last concert for this sea
son of the Portland Symphony Orchestra
was given last night at the Marquam
Grand. It was an exquisite musical treat,
all tho numbers being decidedly of the
tuneful order, though at the samo time
classical. The selections were for the
most part from works better known than
is the rule with classic concerts, and hence
the audience appreciated the treat the
more fully. The orchestral work through
out was under good control, If there be
excepted a few heavy passages In the
Beethoven symphony. Extreme delicacy
was the attractive feature that marked
the concert throughout.
Tho audience was larger and more criti
cally musical than at any previous con
cert Every seat In tho lower floor and
balcony was occupied, while the boxes and
loges were all filled with Portland's best
musical patrons. The appreciation ex
pressed by the largo crowd was a flatter
ing testimonial to tho coneclentlous and
artistic work .done by the symphony or
chestra during the past Winter.
Tho soloist of the evening was Miss May
Dearborne, Portland's latest debutante In
musical circles, who but accentuated her
marked success In her opening concert.
Her singing was artistic and satlsfting,
showing particularly well in the middle
register, while her extreme upper tones,
though true and pure, had not the rich
ness that gave such promise in her pre
vious concert.
The opening number was the ovorture
from Kreutzer's "Night in Grenada," tho
dreamy rhythmic music of the first part
being particularly well interpreted, while
the rollicking peasant dance of the finalo
was wall Tendered. In direct contrast
came Chopin's "Funeral March," in pa
thetic tones of the viola and 'cello recall
ing sad memories. GHlet's "Au Moulin"
was played by the stringed instruments
alone, the imitation of the grinding of the
mill belmj somewhat of a difficult feat In
violins, but this number was so well ren
dered that a repetition was demanded,
which was gracefully granted. The min
uet from Mozart's "Don Juanv" with
measured and stately mien, was next
given, followed by tho sprightly gavotte
from "Mlgnon."
The first number of the second part was
the allegretto movement from Beethoven's
"Seventh Symphony," the most pre
tentious piece of the evening. Tho work
of the orchestra In this difficult compo
sition, on tho whole, -was good, Ml9
Dearborne sank Mlcaela's song from "Car
men," "Here Must the Smugglers Dwell."
Tho sustained high work seemed well
suited to her clear, pure soprano voice,
and her rendition well merited the hearty
recall. For an encore she sang "Fare
well, Uzette" very sweetly. The stir
ring ballet music from Delibe's "Naila"
was the next orchestral selection, and was
marked for its precision and accuracy,
especially in the stacatto passages. That
wonderful masterpiece, which is sincerely
rellgioso In theme, Handel's "Largo,"
completed the programme.
Conductor Charles L. Brown well do
serves the numerous congratulations that
wero bestowed upon him on tho comple
tion of this successful series of concerts.
Portland's mulcal circles are alive to tho
fact that this excellent Instrumental or
ganization is a musical necessity, and
henceforth, it will be a feature,

NOT SETTLED IN SIX YEARS
Illustration of Long-Continued tuiv
Ine Under Skillful Direction.
The distribution of tho final payment
of J24.2S4 of the contract price for tho
cqnstructlon of the Burnslde-street bridge,
whieh has been the subject of litigation
for the past six years, is still an unset
tled question, and bids fair to remain so
for a year or two more. The title of tho
suit is J. E. Willard vs. C. A. Bullen and
A. G. Bullen, as the Bullen Bridge Com
pany, Commercial National Bank, North
Pacific Lumber Company, Kelly, Dunne
& Co., William Jacobsen, Honeyman, De
Hart & Co., and American Bridge Worlcs.
Willard sued for a share of profits as
partner, and the other defendants are
creditors of tho bridge company. A ref
eree heard tho case, and Judge Steams
several years ago. ordered the money dis
bursed among the litigants in certain
amounts, subject to final adjudication of
one or two contested points. The matter
dragged along, and recently Judge Cle
land rendered a final decree, and now
Honeyman, DeHart & Co. and the Amer
ican Bridge Works have appealed to the
Supreme Court from, this decree and dis
tribution. Thej- appeal from the decree
which allows the Commercial National
Bank $10,000, and the plaintiff, Willard,
J2114. They appeal from that part of the
decree which distributes the 12114 as fol
lows: JCOO to tho attorneys of tho plain
tiff, and the remainder pro rata between
the American Bridge & Contract Com
pany and Edward Thatcher, in the ratio
that $060 bears to $213C They appeal from
that portion of the decree which provides
that tho balance of the money shall be di
vided among the creditors of the Bullen
Bridge Company in proportion to the
amounts duo them. The appellants object
to the decree because It gives the Com
mercial National Bank, the plaintiff, Am
erican Bridge & Contract Company, and
Edward Thatcher, a priority of their
claims, instead of appellants, and they
object to having to pay back some money
which they have already received under
the former order by Judge Steams. This
case illustrates the amount of time which
can bo consumed In court in a business
dispute under the guidance of good, at
torneys, with the end not yet In eight.

OREGON HARBORS IMPROVED
Inspection Sliows That Eaglneerm'
Work Has Been Successful.
Captain W. W. Harta, United States
Engineers, returned yesterday from ac
companying Colonel Mansfield, Division
Engineer, in his annual tour of inspection
of tho Government works on the coast
of this state. Colonel Mansfield met Cap
tain Harts at Albany, whence they pro
ceeded to Yaqulna Bay, where tho United
States steamor George S. Wright awaited
them. They looked over tho works at
Yaqulna and found that some of tho old
wharves had been badly damaged by the
teredo, and will decide whether It is ad
visable to rebuild them, or to construct
new wharves on other sites. They found
by soundings that thero Is a good depth of
water on tho Yaqulna bar 15 to 16 feet
at low water, the bst recorded for several
months.
They then proceeded to Tillamook Bay
and Inspected tho channels lately dredged
through Dry Stocking Bar and at tho
mouth of Wilson River, and found them
In excellent condition, with ampta depth
of water for the craft plying there. Tho
beacons created to mark tho channels in
the bay have proved very useful aids to
navigation. Tho Government dredge there
is now beginning to dredge a channel op
posite Bay City. Soundings on the bar
at tho mouth of the bay cavo a depth of
14 feet at low water.
Returning to Yaqulna for the night, they
proceeded next day to tho Sluslaw, and
found the works there progressing favor
ably. The Jetty tn course of construction
appears to bo opening a new south chan
nel to the sea, which, It is hoped, will be
a permanent ono when the Jetty is com
pleted. They next proceed!! to Coos Bay, and
found the Jetty tramway completed, with
the exception of eight bents, and favor
able progress being made on the enrock
ment. They Inspected the channels dredged
in the upper harbor, and found them all
thai could be desired, and heard no com
plaints from the people about shoal water.
They next proceeded to Coquille, where
they found the tramway on tho south side
completed, and the enrockment nearly
flniahed. The wharf and tramway for the
south Jetty have 'been commenced, and a
quarry bus been opened 14 miles up the
river to furnish the rock for tho work,
and ecows aro being got ready to trans,
port it. On their return to Albany, Col
nel Mansfield proceeded to San Francisco,
whero bo Is stationed.
