Portland has now extended the "water plant of
the said city so that It practically covers the
entire city, except that portion formerly known
as Albina and adjacent territory; and,
"Whereas. It lb manifestly to the interest of
the city and Inhabitants thereof that the mu
nicipal plant be extended so as to include all
portions of the city;
Now. therefor be It Resolved, That the
operating cojimlttee and the Engineer report
at their earliest convenience a plan for ex
tending the water system of the city so as to
cover the aboe described territory, and with

probable cost thereof and the probable earn
ings of taid portion of the plant covering: the
said territory when extended, and also report
upon the advisability of acquiring any plant
now covering or supplying said portion of the
city with water.
It was mentioned incidentally that in
case It was deemed advisable or desirable
to purchase the Albina waterworks, this
could be done without issuing any bonds.
Adjourned to 2 P. U Saturday.

property-owners would agree to provide
proper slips and facilities to enable en
gines to reach the hydrants on said main.
It was decided to construct a 10-strand
barbed-wire fence, including necessary
boards, to Inclose the whole tract adjoin
ing the City Park lately purchased by the
committee. Boys have been breaking the
locks on the entrances to the shafts sunk
in this tract, and committing other acts
of vandalism there, and the fence is In
tended to put a stop to Mich doings.
A petition for a water main in the Sandy
road, between East Twenty-eighth and
East Twenty-ninth streets, was laid on the
table, as the road is not a city street.
The same action was taken a short time
ago on a petition for a main in the St.
Helens road.
An application to lease the old pumping
station at the corner of Milwaukie and
Powell streets for a term of 10 years for
the purpose of erecting a woolen mill

a pay roll of about $3500 per month, was,
after some discussion, referred to the op
erating committee for investigation and
report, and the meeting was adjourned"
to 2 P. M. Saturday, at which time the
report will be received.
The committee of three which had been
authorized to negotiate for the sale of
the pump formerly used in the McGulre
pumping station reported that it had de
clined to accept $562 50, the -best bid re
ceived, and referred the matter back to
the general committee. On motion the
matter was laid on the table.
A petition for a main on Twenty-first

Perpetrate Two Robberies and At

Two hold-ups and one attempted hold-up
were reported to the police yesterday. J.
Woell, of Oswego, reported that while he
was driving, seven miles outside of Os
wego, about 10:30 o'clock yesterday morn
ing, a man sprang at him from some
bushes and presented a revolver, saying
"Hands up!" Me. Woell parted with $3
In money and his watch.
While P. J. Mann, of 441 Third street,
was driving with his wife along the Riv
erside drive, about 5 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, a man with a gleaming revol
ver in his right hand ran toward the team,
but Mr. Mann whipped up his horses and'
they broke Into a run. The robber fired
one shot but the bullet fortunately "sjent
wide and Mr. and Mrs. Mann escaped un
hurt. A telephone message reached the police
station last night from Fulton, stating
that a robber had held up the people liv
ing In a house near the Red House Inn,
and had stolen goods and money, but the
message was so indistinct in transmission
that, the names could not be made out. The
police could not find further particulars
of the robbery late last night.

APPEALING FOR MORE LIGHTS
Arc Lamps Can Hot Be Furnished Un
til There Is More Money.
Lack of street lights causes the Board of
Pllhlln Wnrlrs mnrA wnrrv nc tVio dnrlr
' nights of Fall find suburban residents
wending tneir way homeward beneath the
shade of overhanging maples and elms.
Yesterday's meeting of the board was
marked by petitions on -the part of citi
zens, who argued that the only thing
they expect for their city taxes is an arc
light for 'every two blocks on the street
between their homes and downtown.
Br. Liittlefield was one who pleaded for
more light in his district. His dwelling is
on the corner of East Burnside and East
Twentieth streets, and he declared there
was no light on Ankeny street east of
East Thirteenth. "We don't see a po
liceman once in two years," he said, "and
if the city doesn't furnish us lights we
have nothing for the city taxes we pay.
I notice that certain streets in other
portions of the city are well lighted with
arcs every two blocks, and we think we
are at least entitled to as good treat
ment on East Ankeny street." '
The matter was referred to the street
lighting committee, but Mr. Breyman, of
that committee, said nothing could be
done until more money is appropriated for
lights by the Council.
The wooden sidewalks on the east and
west sides of the park blocks are to be
torn up, as the loose plank make uncom
fortable walking. No new sidewalks are
contemplated, however, as the board will
recommend that grass seeds be sown clear
to the edge of the curb. Chairman Mills
said the board was about to do this a
year ago, but ran against a snag in the
shape of an opinion, by the City Attorney,
who said they had no power. This time
the board would recommend the repeal of
the ordinance creating the sidewalks, and
this will probably be done by the City
Council today. There are nearly two
miles of these old walks, the City En
gineer said.
Bids for the Improvement of Lovejoy
street were opened as follows: Star Sand
Company. $438 10; Fralney & Keating,
$456 50; for a sewer on Sandy road, J. B.
Slemmons bid was 52667 30; Jacobsen &
Bade, $2746 88; Reilly & -Stevens, $2870 45;
Fralney & Keating. $2775 96. These were
referred to the Auditor for computation.
The City & Suburban Railway notified
the board of its readiness to proceed with
the replanking of Grand avenue, simul
taneously with the city's contractors, who
will renew the roadway on each side of
that thoroughfare.
The matter of the Weidler franchise was
postponed until the next meeting of the
board, as one member of the committee,
to whom the ordinance was referred, is
absent from the city.
.A number of sidewalk notices were re
ported by the City .Engineer as having
been served, and several bills of costs for
new walks were reported by the Auditor.
These latter will be transferror tn tho
I city sidewalk lien docket, which the board
is preparing, in order to enforce collec
tion from the abutting property.
HE IS COMING!
A Man. Who Should Be Shunned by
Portland Merchants.
A representative of the Baker-Vawter
Company, Chicago, 111., will soon solicit
orders for loose-leaf ledgers, salesmen's
order sheets and other printing and bind
ing. There are several local Arms who
manufacture such goods and pay fair
wages to their workmen, who in turn
pay fair prices to Portland merchants for
their goods. It ha& come to our notice
that certain members of the Manufactur
ers Association and other advocates of
home industry are patronizing the Baker
Vawter Company. This concern has no in
terests in this city, pays no taxes or li
censes, yet Portland merchants will give
their traveling representative large orders
for order sheets, etc., thus sending busi
ness out of this city which should remain
here and be placed with Arms that pay
fair wages. The Baker-Vawter Company
is a nonunion concern, and we kindly ask
all patrons of It to refuse them further
orders. Have your printing and binding
done by Portland Arms who are using the
union label, and thereby help to build up
our fair city, and in doing that you help
yourselves.

JURY ACTED IMPROPERLY
DURPHT'S CHARACTER TORX TO
PIECES BY MEMBERS.
New Trial- Asked for Convicted Po.
lygamlst, Because Jurymen Called
Him a. Scoundrel.
The jury which convicted ' Bradley F.
Durphy of polygamy Is charged with mis
conduct In having discussed In the jury
room statements which were not In evi
dence In 'the case. This consisted partly
In a statement that Durphy has a third
wife, while the testimony showed that
lie was married but twice. His reputa
tion Is also said to have been very gener
ally discussed'
C. M. Idleman and F. P. Hays, attor-'
neys for Durphy, have filed an affidavit
to this effect In the State Circuit Court
accompanying the motion for a new trial.
It is subscribed to by J. H. Lamberson,
who was one of the jurors, and is as fol
lows : I
That after the cause had been submitted to
the jury and they had retired for deliberation,
and before a verdict had been reached, cer
tain members of the jury, and especially two,
denounced the defendant in most scathing
terms; that his reputation was discussed In
general, 'and In particular Incidents, circum
stances and charges related to, derogatory to
his reputation as a citizen and a man: that al
most the entire discussion of the case after
retiring to tne Jury-room, consisted of Impre
cations and maledictions upon his character
and standing In general.
That statements were made while deliberat
ing uron the verdict by these Jurymen, that the
defendant was a scoundrel, and that he
had been convicted twice of crime before com
ing to Oregon; that he had come here with a
great spread, stating that he was going to
build a shoe facton and that he had built
the shoe factory on the east side of river, and
burned It down to get the insurance: that he
was marrldd before he left Portland to another
woman, and was now living with her, and
that he was a scoundrel, and ought to bo
convicted on general principles.
This may not be the exact languago used,
but It Is the substance, and I am convinced
that It had a great Influence in procuring a
verdict against the defendant.
IDENTITY OF A DEAD MAN.
Conflicting- Testimony Over Henry
Wilson, Portland Pioneer.
The suit of Toblne Nllson, Martin
Thompson, Hannah Hickman, Oscar An
derson and Willie Anderson, asking that
they be declared to be the heirs of Henry
Wilson; deceased, and entitled to the pos
session of his estate, valued at $12,000, was
heard by Judges Cleland, Sears and
George yesterday.
Wilson came to Portland In 1855, and
took up a tract ' of Government land,
which he afterwards sold for $9000. He
was a bachelor, and died here about two
years ago, aged about 70 years, and S.
W. Simmons was appointed administrator
of the estate. The testimony In behalf of
the alleged heirs concerning the early life
of the deceased was of a somewhat in
teresting charactr. It came out through
witnesses and the reading of various depo
sitions, that he was born at Farsund,
Norway, and when a youth assisted his
father herding sheep. His father did not
treat him well, so he ran away from
home, and, after working on the herring
fishing smacks for a while, shipped from
Bergen, and eventually arrived In San
Francisco. His real name vas said to
have been Tonnes Tonnesen, or Corneliu
sen, and he deserted a ship In San Fran
cisco and assumed the name of Henry
Wilson In order to escape capture, Pallors
being In demand at that time and hotly
pursued when they ran away. He after
wards went to the gold mines, and next
fame to Portland.
N. Alsager, A. Munson, Jacob Danner
and others testified that Henry Wilson
conversed with them concerning his sis
ters In Norway. Munson said Wilson fre
quently spoke o going to Norway on a
visit.
Danner testified that Wilson boarded

at his hotel for a number of years, and
told him he came from Farsund; that his
name was Tonnes Corneliusen; that he
had been In Cuba and California, and how
he came to change his name.
A large number of other witnesses were
examined, and there was much difference
of opinion among some of them regarding
tattoo marks on one of his arms. Some
of them sald It was an anchor, others a
cross or a star, and one witness had It
that It was a ring.
The fight was a three-cornered one. H.
W. Wilbur and John F. Logan repre
sented the heirs as counsel; Chester V.
Dolph and U. S. G. Marquam appeared
as special counsel for the State of Ore-
1 gon, asking that the estate be escheated.
Fred Strong appeared as attorney for S.
W. Simmons, the administrator of the es
tate. His position Is that the estate
should not be escheated to the state be
cause there are heirs who have not yet
been discovered, and that the present
claimants are rcot the heirs. Mr. Strong
introduced evidence to show that Henry
Wilson came from the northern pWt of
Norway, whereas Farsund is in the ex
treme southern part of that country; also
that Henry Wilson could not read or
write, and that the alleged relatives testi
fied about numerous letters which he had
written.
A feature of the claimants case which
requires explanation is the evidence of
Tobine Nilson, a sister, that she last saw
her brother in Norway 37 years ago, while
he Is positively known to have arrived
In this city 46 years ago. The recordsi of
the United States Land Office contain
that fact, and he never returned to his
native land.
Federal Grand Jury Impaneled.
The grand jury summoned for the
United States Circuit Court appeared yes

They were then charged by Judge Bellin

their duties. There is business enough on
hand to occupy them about 10 day3, com
prising cases of counterfeiting, furnish
ing whiskey to Indians, postofHce rob
bery, etc. The cases of Columbia George
and Toy Toy, Indians, convicted of mur
der in the State Court at Pendleton, In
which the verdict was reversed on the
ground of lacking jurisdiction, will also
come up for consideration.
