THE MOEXING OHEGOXTAN. TUESDAY. JULY 1, 1&02. WANT OIL TANKS REMOVED EAST jSIDE RESIDENTS -CIRCULATE A PETITION. Councilman Sharkey Will Take It I?p Mysterious Bicycle Accident 7evrs of a Day. A petition is bolng circulated asking the City Council to take steps to have toe oil tanks of the Standard -Oil Company rrmovod from their present location be tween East First and East Water streets. It Is recited that the presence of so great quantity of oil is a menace to the surrounding- property. Councilman-elect John "W. Sharkey -was asked -what action he should take, as the piant Is located in his ward. He said that he would introduce an ordinance reg ulating the quantity of oil that can he stored at one place, which was about thfe only way the case can be reached. Mr. Bharkcy said that he was not actuated by any feeling against tho managers of the Standard Oil Company .and had nothing against them, but there had come a great demand for removal of the tanks. People Jiad been coming to his house constantly and speaking to him on the streets, all urging that something be done for their removal. Notwithstanding the statement of the Portland agent that the oil tanks are safe and are not a menace to the surroundings. Sir. Sharkey thinks that they are a source of danger, not only to the locality, but to the whole water-front. He does not consider that the erection of higher retaining walls would remove the danger. He suggests that the company could remove the tanks outside the city and the present warehouses be retained as a supply point, and oil could be brought in by a pipe-line. In this way only a email quantity would be kept Inside the city. Mr. Sharkey said he understands that one of the tanks alone contains 500. 000 gallons of oil. MYSTERIOUS ACCIDENT. A. F. Miller Fell From Bicycle, "but Doesn't Know Hovr. A. F. Miller, a well-known resident of Ecllwood and master of Evening Star Grange, Xo. 27, Patrons of Husbandry, was seriously Injured while returning on a bicycle from Peninsular Station Satur day night, where he attended a meeting of the Peninsula Grange. Mr Miller lias no recollection of what 'happened until he round himself at Central Police Station at about 12 o'clock that night. It was a few minutes after 10 o'clock when work In the Grange was finished and Mr. Miller was ready to start home. He was urged to remain over night, but as he desired to be at homo early Sunday morning he declined tho hospitality of his brethren. Peninsular Station Is same dis tance from the cycle path on the "Willam ette and Portland boulevards, and as tho street is in bad condition from the station to the "Willamette boulevard, Mr. Miller walked until he came to the path. He had no lantern. Reaching the west end of Portland boulevard, where it Joins "Will amette boulevard, he rode eastward on tho former, intending to pass through Piedmont and Upper Albina. For about a quarter of a mile he wheeled along with out trouble, when he fell and was rendered unconscious. How the accident happened or where it happened Mr. Miller has no Idea. In some way he made his way southward until he came to tho St. John rjJlroad and went to a house, taking his wheel with him. He wafc taken into the house, his face covered with blood. He could not tell his name. The family tele phoned the police station and a policeman was sent to the house. Mr. Miller was then brought to the police station with out knowing how "ho got there. At the station he revived sufficiently to tell who he was. At first it was proposed that he be sent to a hospital, but Mr. Miller gave the number of the house of his son, R. A. Miller, 172 East Twentieth street, and asked to be taken there. He now realized that something had happened. His son was greatly surprised and shocked when his father was brought to his home shortly after 1 o'clock Sunday morning, with his face covered with blood and still In a dazed condition. "With con siderable difficulty a physician was found. Mr. Miller had fallen with great force on tne right side of his face and head. His face was badly gashed near the eye. His left hand was bruised, and his breast bore marks of bruises. The most severe bruises were on his head. It is thought that the accident occurred at tho intersection of Patton avenue and Portland boulevard. Patton avenue, 100 feet wide, was recently graded from "North Albina to the Portland boulevard, and there is a four-foot cut on tho side of the boulevard on which the bicycle path Is located." On a dark night the sud den jump-off in the path would not be seen. It is supposed Mr. Miller rode off this embankment in the darkness, striking on his head. He did not fully recover from his dazed condition until Sunday. Last evening he was considerably im proved and will soon be able to go to his home. It will be some time before he will be fully restored. MRS. 1m. C. POTTER INJURED. Run Over ly a Runaway Team of Horses on East Morrtnon Street. Mrs. L. C.

It is one of the most beautiful scarlet climbers lntfae city. GOOD TIME FOR MAYOR. 3Ir.RoiTe' Lohh to Footpads Is More Than Made Up. In the language of the street. Mayor Rowe was "up against it properly" yes terday afternoon. The cause was the presentation of a full-jeweled watch to hizn. by the various members of the retir ing city government and his inability to respond to the suddenness of the attack. "JVlth nearly all the other officers of the city '.government. Mayor Rowe went out or-offlce at midnight last night. As a soUyejilr of his reign the members of the Council, the Board of Public Works and the?: Boards of Fire and Police Commis sioners, and the heads of those depart ments decided to present him with a gold wttch. The Mayor knew nothing what evtr'about tho matter, and he was snugly ensconced In his chair, discussing city matters with a delegation, when his con versation was Interrupted by City Auditor Devlin. "There Is a special meeting of the Coun cil .downstairs, Mr. Mayor," was the salu tation -of the Auditor. "'Well, I'd like to know who called it," said 'the Mayor, with an inquiring look. kfl, don't know," brusquely replied the Auditor, who is noted for his polite man ners. "You had better come down and see." and Mr. Devlin went down stairs tfo, steps at a time. Mayor Rowe, with a worried look, followed. Mr. Devlin en tered, the Council chamber through the rooms of the record department, and the Mayor was only a few sconds behind hlip. At the door the Mayor paused. Glancing through, he saw every member of the Council present, except Messrs. Holbrook and Mulkey, and also nearly all the members of the Boards of Public Works, Police and Fire Commissioners, the city officers, and Chief of Police Mc Lauchlan and Fire Chief Campbell. The Mayor did not have much time to hesitate, for,, he had to respond to a call to take his" chair, and when he passed through the door he was taken in cnarge by Council man Bronaugh, who led him to the Aud itor's, "desk. "Mr. Mayor," .said Mr. Bronaugh, and tUiC Mayor looked askance. "Mr. Mayor." continued the Councilman, "oome years agoiour beloved poet, Longfellow, wrote apoem containing the words, 'We who are. about to die salute you.' Your offi cial friends have gathered here today. Mr. Moyqr, to salutevyou. Some of us have already been kilted. Most of us are now tos'ever our official connection with the city government and our official relations wfth you. "We, who have been in close tquph with you, know and appreciate your efforts in behalf of this municipality. We khow how faithfully and untiringly you have la"bored for the material welfare of th'ls city. We have been gathered togeth er, a body of men of various political ideas, and convictions, and yet in the discharge of our official duties we have known no political differences, but have labored together in a spirit of unanimity for what we h'ave believed to be the best interests of the City of Portland. We appreciate the courteous treatment you have extended toward us all, and it is with Tegret that we view the termination of our cordial official relations. "It was with great regret, Mr. Mayor that we, your co-workers, learned some months ago that you, the chief execu tive' officer of this city, had been relieved of your timepiece by a bold highwayman. We mourned with you In your lors, but were never wholly satisfied with the ex planation of the affair. In the minds of the' Councilman, at least, there has al ways been a lurking suspicion that the hbhorable Police Commissioners knew something about that matter, and that It was a put-up Job on thr part to force the Council to Increase the allowance of that department of the city government. But whether this suspicion Is well founded or no" your friends in the city government have placed upon me the very pleasant duty of presenting to you on their behalf this watch as a token of their esteem for you and as an expression of their appre ciation of your official service. In deter mining what material form our expres sion of appreciation should assume, we did not select this timepiece because we consider you elow. On the contrary, wc ktiowyou to be a very speedy young man; but we deemed it advisable that you should be equipped with the means of keeping time on your pace, and are sure this' will fill a long-felt want. "We ask you to accept this watch, Mr. Mayor, as a token of our esteem and ap preciation. Our best wishes go with it, and will go with you as you retire from official to private life with the conscious ness of duty well done." Mayor Rowe accepted the watch, and then made a brief appropriate response. He was greatly embarrassed, and as he said afterward he was never so much sur prised In h!s life as when the present was made. Congratulations were extended to tho Mayor, and then Mr. Devlin's "special meeting" adjourned slrfe die. The watch, which was presented by all the members of the city government, sears the Inscription. "Henry S.- Rowe, Mayor of Portland, July 1, 1S00, to July 1, 1902, .from his friends." OUR TRADE WITH SCOTLAND Tendency Fnvorable to American Labor-Savinf? Machinery. NEW YORK, June 30.

The extract says: "Consul Rufus Fleming, of Edinburgh, says that the growth of our business there is very significant as to the poslbllltles of thej expansion of our trade In tho world at 3arge. Our tools, both hand and ma chine, are In high favor. The demand for our, machinery Is Increasing. "The tendency of trade In Scotland Is favorable to American labor-saving ma chines In the more important of manu factures, and also for pumping, crushing, boring and for power purposCa. American agricultural machines are preferred to any other. The hardware business has been- properly managed by United States exporters with the result that there Is a growing demand for our kitchen utensils and a variety of Implements and devices for, use In the household. American furni turfe is admired and sells when it is of fered at moderate prices. American rub ber manufactures have met with great success. Our shoes are also in strong de mand. "As to electrical appliances, British man ufactures find it almost Impossible to compete with our dynamos, motors and tramway equipment.

HOMESTEAD NOT EXEMPT, SAYS JUDGE CLEL.AXD. r Boundary Dlnpnte Decided In Fnvor of Irviniyton Lovell Get Year In Penitentiary. Judpe Cleland yesterday decided that property claimed as a 'homestead Is sub ject to mortgage foreclosure, and that the homestead law docs not apply In such cases. The decision was rendered in the suit of James Y. Wade against P. O. Lun dln and wife, Bessie W. Paxton et al., to foreclose a mortgage for JolCO on a half Isn't It About Time of block of ground on East Belmont street, between East Thirteenth and East Fourteenth. Bessie W.

Judge Cleland. rendering a decision the remainuer of the property carved . for the joint session of the court, held out Into three lots, and to be sold In sep- that a tax deed is prima facie evidence. arate lots before selling the homestead. Their Idea was to save the homestead If enough could be realized from the remain ing property to pay the Indebtedness. The homestead act provides: "This act shall not apply to decrees for the fore closure of any mortgage properly execut ed, but If the owners of such homestead be married, then It shall be executed by husband and wife." L.undln and wife both signed the mort gage covering the whole half-block, and the court found that thi3 left the case standing as If there were no homestead law In existence. ADDITION BOUNDARY FIXED. Property Snlt Decided in Fnvor of Irvlnirton's Owners. Judge Frazer yesterday settled the dis pute concerning the boundary line be tween Holladay's Addition and Irylngton and Wst Irvington. In favor of the Irving ton people. The question was raised In the suit of Louise Martin against J. Adrian Epplng, to quiet title to a strip of ground. At first IS feet was demanded, but after two surveys had been made it narrowed down to five or six feet. While the piece of ground Involved In this suit Is small, the case was important as involving, the location of the boundary line Its entire length between these ad ditions. Judge Frazer said that while there were several displays made which do not agree, it was sufficient to find the line of the original survey, and which was accepted by the people at the time. This was par tially determined by an old fence, and a Clearing and wooded tract of land, and. the court said it appeared that the dis puted ground belongs to the Irvington tracts. The case was argued recently by A. C. Spencer for the plaintiff and R. W. Montague for the defense. ONE YEAR IN PENITENTIARY. Ilorsetrnder I.ovell Escapes "With Light Sentence. Albert L,ovell was sentenced to one-year in the penitentiary yesterday, having been previously convicted of larceny by embezzlement of $60 from L. M. Hubert. Judge Cleland. in passing sentence, said he was disposed to accept the recommen dation of the jury and be lenient with Lovell. Hubert conducts a livery stable, and Lovell sold horses and mules for him, and fallpd to account for the proceeds of one sale. As a defense Lovell contended that he acquired the animals as a result of numerous trades, and that they were not the property of Hubert. George C. Stout, who appeared In the case as atieJrney for the defendant, ad dressed the court, stating- that he had doubts of the guilt of his client, A motion for a new trial, which had been argued in the case, was denied. GRANTED A NON-SUIT. Erasmus Mnsn Lofcs Action Ayrninnt Brown SIcCabc. Non-suit was granted yesterday in the case of Erasmus Mann against Brown & McCabe, for $5217 damages. Mann Is a stevedore, and he testified at the trial, which was before Judges Cleland and George, that he had .been in the em ploy of Brown & McCabe for 21 years. He' was engaged In assisting to load the ship Centurion with grain on February 19, 1902; when a sack of grain Jumped from the chute and. struck him on the ankle, breaking It. Mann was In the hold of 'the ship catching tlje sacks as they came down the chute, and packing them away, when the accident happened. He testifies that he Is rtlll lame. On cross examination by Rufus Mal lory, attorney for the" defendant, Mann said hei was working-Just as he had done many times before, and thero was no dif ferences in the arrangement of things than usual. 4 After the evidence of the plaintiff was all in. Mr. Mallory moved for a non-suit on -the ground that Mann assumed the risk Incident to his employment, such as Is ordinarily assumed by longshoremen, and that defendants were not liable. the Rock Was Lifted? After hearing the nrgument of oppos ing council, the court sustained Mr. Mal lory'3 motion on the grounds stated. TAX DEED SUFFICIEIVT. Xo Other Evidence of Title la Xec ewsary. In the suit of W. B. Wallace against , P. n Marlay and H. E. Ncble to oulet and that to plead the deed in the answer as a defense is sufficient. The attorney for Wallace filed a motion to make the answer mere definite and c-rialn. In that the defendants set forth a copy of the tax deed, or so much of It as will show " to whom and In what manner the property was assessed; that the tax deed Is In due form of law, and also that the property was properly as sessed, and that subsequent proceedings leading to the sale of the property for taxes were all regular. Judge Sears previously held that all these things must be shown by the defend ants In tax title suits, but the decision rendered yesterday Is exactly to the con trary. ' Conrt Notes. The Inventory and appraisement of the estate of Guisseppl Arata. deceased, was filed yesterday. The property Is valued at 512.532. In the suit of Anna KIngsley vs. D. S. Runyon and wife, to recover ?D0 rent for a house at 242 Montgomery; Judge Cle land yesterday rendered a decision In fa vor of the plaintiff.

THEIR Interesting: Programmes In "Which. Brightest Members of the Sex. Will. Take Tnrt. There has never been a year In the his tory of the Chautauqua Assembly that has awakened such Interest among the club women of Portland as the present. This Is due to two causes the managers of the assembly, while always showing a desire to Interest these, women, have now as never before grasped the situation, and are bringing attractions, and inducements new to this. assembly and of a particu larly .Interesting nature to women, who are taking 'an active -part In the Issues of the day. - ' - Woman's . day .will be a veritable de parture from the conventional woman's day of the "past. No addresses will be made, but" brief, height talks of a few minutes each will be made on a few of the topics which are engrossing the time and attention of earnest, thoughtful wom en, with some of their follies and foibles thrown In for variety. A committee from many of the clubs and women's organ ization of Portland has been appointed to arrange a huge women's picnic and special features for the day. The parliamentary classes and drills to be given by. Lilian Colo-Bethel have been specially arranged with a view to the ac commodation and ,comfort of women at tending. Mrs. Bethel's charming person ality, easy and - convincing manner, im pressed Itself so strongly upon the club women of the state during their late con vention that It is safe to predict not only a largo attendance from Portland, but from all the surrounding towns where there are clubs or women's organizations. Many women are Intending to camp on the grqunds, that. thy may not miss any of these lessons. The second reason why clubwomen are taking this unusual Inter est Is that as they grow and progress they realize more fully that progression means giving as well as receiving, and by giv ing their presence, financial support and above all their Interest and enthusiasm, they are helping- to maintain an Institu tion which Is more far-reaching In Its In tellectual" and educational benefits than almost anything the community offers. Women who live in little, secluded ham lets and on farms, without libraries or any of the social or educational advantage of the larger tovn3, look forward to the Chautauqua Assembly as the one Intel lectual feast of the whole year. They enjoy the lectures, the classes, the music and athletics, but equally do they enjoy the pretty gowns, the cheerful voices and the close personal touch which makes them all akin on the Chautauqua grounds, and back to their quiet homes they carry the bright visions of their more fortunate sisters, while the city clubwoman takes to her home a remembrance of strength and devotion to home and duty, and strong conviction that she has received, outside of any of the attractions provided by the management, far more than she has given and the benefits widen like the circles from a stone dropped Into a pond.
