No less than 14 franchises are at pres
ent the subject of municipal considera
tion In one shape or another. This Is the
largest number of. measures of this .kind
ever before the city authorities at one
time, and the most remarkable feature
i f the record exists in the fact that all
.ire more or less Important In character.
The most advanced in point of general
consideration are liie ordinances propos
ing t- Brant franchises to the Cascade
Tower Company and the Mount Hood
l'.lectric Company for supplying; this city
wth electrlo light, heat and power. Both
er passed by the Council Wednesday
night, and are new in the hands of May
or Lane, who must, decide to veto or ap
prove them on or before Monday, May 14,
-!se they become laws without his signa
ture. They were passed by such a close mar
gin that friends of the two measures are
flubioun about their fate, and those asso
ciated with the Cascade Power Company
ussortcd openly yesterday that unless the
Mayor approved their franchise there was
no fmiher hope for it, as four members
of the council were known to, be unal
terably opposed to them. Reference was
probcbly had to Belding, Sharkey and
Wallace In this connection, as all three
voted against granting the franchise In
question. It was not disclosed who con
Ftitutcd the -fourth obdurate member, but
the distinction is supposed to rest be
tween 1unnlng and Menefee, as the for
mer voted against granting the Mount
Hood Company any privileges, while the
latter Is known to be generally lukewarm
n dealings of this kind, where there Is the
slightest possibility of the municipality
gelling the worst of It.
K. K. ltlchardson Hopeful.
K. R. Richardson, the wealthy New
Yorker who Is backing the Cascade Pow
er Company, in conjunction with other
Kastern capitalists, arrived here last
Wednesday morning, but did not. attend
tl.e Council mteting In the evening, on
account of illness. - lie has traveled over
large portions of the country in search of
health since leaving here, about the first
of the year, and Is now convinced the cli
mate of Portland Is very satisfactory. Ho
will remain here all Summer, as he has
fxtenstve local interests besides the prop
erty involved in the Cascade Power Com
pany. Mr. Richardson could see no valid rea
son why the Mayor should not sign the
ordinance granting a franchise to his coi
poration, when questioned about It yes
terday. He thought the compensation of
1 per cent on the gross earnings, which
thn measure guarantees the city for the
full terra of-26 years, amply sufficient to
meet all legitimate requirements, espe
cially when the city Is further protected
ty a bond of not less than $50,000 as an
evidence of good faith: that the work of
construction must begin within one year,
ami be completed within two years, and
that in addition the corporation is re
quired to expend at least $30,000 annually
for maintenance, operation and extension
of the piant.
It is iKlieved the Mount Hood Electric
Company is much In the same condition
as the Cascade Power Company in many
respects, and that both must stand or
fall together.
Major Is .Non-Coiiimlttsl.
Mayor Lane declined to indicate what
course lie. would take with reference to
the two franchises, when questioned upon
the subject last night, saying that neither
had com before him officially as yet,
and until he had analysed every feature
of the situation he did not feel at lib
erty to express an opinion.
The proposed franchises granting the
United Railways Company and the Wil
lamette Valley Traction Company the
light to operate electric lines on Front
street have been passed to print by the
Council, and are now In process of adver
tising. After they have been published
for period of at least 20 days from April
30. they will come before the Council for
p.dopiron, and thereafter go to the Mayor
for his approval.
Drake C. O'Reilly also has an appllca
t'on pending for an electric railway fran
chise down Front street, but the measure
It's bjrled beneath the debris of the ta
il. t be taken up whenever the mem
bers of the streets committee feel so dis
posed. Other Franchise Propositions.
Consideration of the ordinances grant
ing franchises to the Portland & Mount
lined Kiillw-, the Pence Company and
the American Investment Company will
.
form the basis of a special meeting of the
streets committee of the Council next
Monday night.
The applications for franchises of the
O. R. & N. and Bast Side Belt Line Rail
way Company are still before the Joint
streets and Judiciary and elections com
mittees of the Council, where they have
been - for some time. TL'pon several occa
sions the question of granting these frar
chises has been brought to the attention
of the body, but, owing to the inability
of the contending Interests to agree upon
some satisfactory arrangement relative to
interchange of traffic and other matters,
no definite action has been taken by the
two committees the last meeting adjourn
ing to meet at the call of the chairman.
Measures lo Come Up.
At the next meeting of the joint streets
and judiciary and elections committees
of the Council, the ordinances granting
franchises conveying the right to main
tain and operate gas plants in this city. In
favor of Thomas McCusker and B. S.
Fague. and others, will come up for con
sideration. Thomes McCusker and L. V. Keady
have a franchise pending before the streets
committee which. If passed, will enable
them to operate a subway under the Wil
lamette River. It will probably come up
at the .next meeting of the body, but no
doubt will be referred to a subcommittee.
The Northern Pacific Railway Company
has applied for a franchise to operate a
sidetrack with switches on York street,
which, although Introduced several weeks
r.go, has advanced no further, than the
itreets committee.
NUT LEASE liLLORY LOTS
NEGOTIATIONS IX , PROGRESS
FOR PROPERTY.
Erection of Modern Building and
Heavy Ground Rental Are
Conditions of Deal.
Negotiations are In progress where
by It is probable that the Stark street
property of Rufus Mallory will be
leased to persons whose names have
not been made public for a period of
26- years. i The property lies on the
south side of . Stark street between
Third and Fourth, directly across from
the Chamber of Commerce building and
Is one of the most desirable locations
in the city. It runs the entire length
of the block and has a depth of 50 feet.
If the papers are closed the lessees will
erect a large business block in place
of the low buildings which now
occupy It.
It is understood an agreement has
been reached whereby HoOJ a month
or JI8.000 a year will be paid for the
use of the property. This would make
a total rental for the 26 years of
$468,000.
In addition to ,the cash rental, it Is
reported that the lessees have agreed
to construct an eight-story building
on the land, which, at the expiration of
the lease, will revert to Rufus Mal
lory, the owner of the property. Such
a building could hardly be erected at
a cost below $150,000, so that the terms
of the lease really stipulate payments
amounting to practically $618,000.
It is not known whether those who
are negotiating for the property Intend
to build for their own use or merely
for the purpose of subletting. The cen
tral location of the property makes it
a very desirable site for a retail busi
ness or office building, and tenant
could doubtless be found who would
gladly pay good rentals.
Several offers have been made to Mr.
Mallory by men who desired to pur
chase the property. Each of these has
been refused and It has been generally
understood that he did not desire to
sell at any figure. It is believed, how
ever, that he has consented to lease
the property at the terms stipulated.

Lower Rate for Oats.
The Northern Pacific freight depart
ment will announce today a new and
reduced rate on oats In carload lots
from La Conner, Wash., to Portland.,
The new rate will be 10 cents, whereas
it has formerly been 1214 cents. The
minimum will be high, probably being
the capacity of the car used in ship
ping. -Oats from La Conner are very
ricn in gluten and are desirable ma
terial on that account for the manu
facture of breakfast foods. Portland
manufacturers, who use quantities of
La Conner oats, are benefited by the
new rate.
Registration Is Slow.
Registration is progressing slowly. The
books will be closed May 15 at 5 o'clock.
The number registered daily is about 30.
If necessary. County Clerk Fields will
keep the office open nights to accommo
date electors. He has not yet decided
to do so. . , .

grand exalted ruler of the Elks, who spent
yesterday in the city on the way back to
his home in Louisville, Ky.
"The Oregon Relief Bureau is a conspic
uous factor in the relief work there, too,"
continued Mr. Brown. 'The Oregonlan did
a mighty good thing when it established
that bureau. I have heard all kinds of
nice things said about it."
When the news of the disaster of April
18 reached Louisville, Mr. Brown, who Is
managing editor of the Louisville Times,
turned his desk over to his news editor
and started for the stricken city to allevi
ate the distress of members of the order.
No Discrimination Sbown.
"At first we did not discriminate at all,"
said Mr. Brown, when seen in his apart
ments at the Oregon yesterday. "An Elk,
you know, never likes to admit that he is
in need of help, and men who had been
burned out of everything were busy help
ing: other people. 'I'm all right, do some
thing for somebody else that needs it I
worse," was what many of them said. . .
"Before leaving I appointed a commis
sion of three members to superintend the
relief work for the Elks throughout the
state. Besides, a committee from each
lodge is looking after the work in its sec
tion. It's a case of everybody get out and
work like a man, I can tell you. Why, we
hid a man driving a wagon for us that
had lost $750,000 by the fire. He was driv
ing around irujthe dust, wearing a flannel
shirt.
Santa Rosa Suffers Terribly.
"I went -to every town that suffered.
The condition Of Santa Rosa is awful.
Practically every business building in the
town is in ruins. The two daily papers
had always been fierce and bitter rivals;
out the fire brought .them together, for
they issued a Joint paper about the size, of
a postal card, wtth the two names "Demo
crat" and 'Republican' hyphenated at the
top. -
"I don't believe the true spirit of a fra-'
ternal society was ever so well brought
out as at the San . Francisco disaster.
Every act of ;humanlty that could be done
has been done many times over.
"During the nine days that I was there I
saw only three cases of Imposition on the
relief supplies, and these were so flagrant
that they were easy of detection.. t
"The people there are stunned and hard
ly realize even now what the disaster
means. -Yet out in the partly burned Mis
sion district,-where people were camping
and cooking in front of their houses, every
place had a sign stuck up: 'Camp Pork
and Beans': "Camp Back to Nature," 'The
Poodledog.' and so forth."
. Mr. Brown left last evening, after be
ing entertained during the day by local
Elks. . '

The organization of the new St. Johns

GETS MORE MAILCARRIERS
Services From East Side Stations to
Be Improved May 15.
The East Side will have three additional
mailcarrlers after May 15, which will re
lieve the present condition at four postal
stations and increase mail deliveries In
Central East Portland beyond Grand ave
nue. -The new carriers are A. TV. Taylor,
H. 1. Valentine, E: A., Gardner and Or
lando P. Toder. Under the, new arrange
ment the territory of Station' A at Union
avenue and East Alder street.-will be ex
tended south from- East Harrison to Di
vision street and get , an. additional car
rier. ' V .
Postmaster Halvor,' in -charge of Station
A. said that the effect of the Increase
would give the station a half carrier more,
and would, largely improve the service.
The business district between the Willam
ette River to and including -Grand avenue
now has three deliveries a day. This same
service will .be extended to East Ninth
street, and the early mornipg delivery will
be at 8 o'clock instead of after 9 o'clock.
This early delivery, will be beneficial to
the packing-houses and other business
firms. , Mr. Halvor sayB that there will be
a substantial gain in every way in Jthis
territory. One of the carriers will go to
Station B. on Russell ' street. Albina, to
relieve the carriers of that growing dis
trict, and one goes to Sunnvside. The
fourth carrier will " be assigned to the
warehous'e-district.
'Harriman Offices to Be Moved.
With the completion of the new Wells
Fargo butldins: at Sixth and Oak streets,
the general offices of the Harriman lines
will be removed from the Worcester
building and transferred to the entire
upper six floors and part of the fifth floor
as well of the1 new structure. The build

nations amounting to more than $4000

$179.50 was' received in contributions.

I tomorrow or Sunday. j
t
' The $250,000 mark is still the goal
of the merged relief fund in Portland,
as the donations of yesterday only
brought the total up to $246,380.82,
$179.50 was taken in by the finance
committee of the general relief com
mittee and at The Oregonlan and Tele
gram offices. But the day before the
donations amounted to more than
$4000. and it was expected that the
contributions of yesterday would bring
the fund up to $250,000.
The raising of the $230,000 is as
sured, as less than $4000 remains to be
secured to pass the mark which was
set by those interested in the relief
fund. It is hoped that by tomorrow or
Sunday the announcement can be made
that the $250,000 has 'jeen raised. Tho
donations vary greatly from day to
day, and the members of the finance
committee believe that much more
money will be raised,
A remarkable fact in connection
with the relief fund is that there only
remains to be collected about $550 of
the money that has been subscribed.
The cash donations amount to about
$200,000. The other donations which
make up the total were In the form of

GIFT OF ADOLPHCS BUSCH
Philanthropist, AV ell Known In Tort
land, Gives $100,000.'
Adolphus Busch, the St. Louis mil
lionaire, who is well known in Port
land, has donated $100,010 to the San
Francisco relief fund. This is one of
the largest Individual gifts made to the
San Francisco sufferers. Mr. Busch
was in San Francisco during the dis
aster, and realized the extent of the
destruction of property and the hard
ships suffered by the thousands left
homeless.
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat made
the following editorial comment upon
Mr. Busch's gift:
"No man has a greater faith in the
boundless and redounding energy and
recuperative power of the American
people than Mr. Busch, for no man
knows them better and few as well.
He helps those he knows to be worthy
of help, not only for his sympathy and
their relief, but for rehabilitation of
what is lost and reconstruction of fall
en powers. He has gten wisely and
well as a ' philanthropist and as an
American with supreme faith in the
grit and enterprise of his fellow-citizens.
"This gift is monumental in the his
tory of St. Louis giving. Henry
Shaw's bequests of land and properties
will total more, but this splendid offer
ing of cash upon the altars of charity
makes a record new in St. Louis and
of which St. Louis Is Immensely and
justly proud."

fabric which th'ft wnrH' Kcwcf

the full. And that is the whole scheme
of the" Atterbury System to be Right
everywhere in everything.
