BURNSIDE BRIDGE SITUS OF ONE For Style, Finish and Durability PERFECTLY SAFE THE ISSUE XBURY M CARPETS If Alexander Young Joins Union Water Front Strike Will Be Ended. IN THEIR LAST DITCH Gralnhandlcrs Demand but One Trifling Concession Imported Strikebreaker Is Assault ed and Beaten. Alexander Young, weigher at Oceanic dock, has become the Issue In the grain handlers' strike. If he Joins the union, the exporters and grainhandlers can reach an agreement and the strikers will go back to work at the ' Port Costa scale. This Is practically what the present dif ference amounts to. The exporters are balking at full recognition of the union, which means the unionizing of weighers, samplers and machine men. In addition to the other grainhandlers. As a matter of fact, all weighers and samplers on the waterfront had joined the union prior to the strike, with the exception of Alex ander Young. It should be stated that there are a number of office men in the employ of the exporters who do weighing and sam pling, but as the union makes no demand that these shall "join the union, they are not Involved in any way. The unionising .of only one more man stands in the way of the peaceable adjustment of the con troversy. The union representatives think this de mand is a reanonable one, and say the exporters should make this slight conces sion In return for the agreement on the part of the grainhandlers to waive their claim for higher wages and their promise to return to work at the old scale. They are still hopeful that the shippers will see their way clear to meet the men on common ground, and their attorney, Rus sell K. Bewail, will hold a conference this morning with the union committee to de termine whether to deal further with the exporters. When the last conference between At torney Bewail and the exporters' commit tee ended Saturday night, the grainhand lers were discouraged, and it was doubted whether any settlement would be reached. A tlnal effort may be made today to get favorable action from the shippers. Think It Small Concession. "We have conceded things we never thought of giving up." said Oscar Melby, business agent for the grainhandlers, last night, "and we think we are asking only what is right In recognition of the union, and this means the unionizing of weigh ers and samplers, who, prior to the strike, were all members of the union, with one exception." The request that weighers and samplers be unionized is not a new one, .for it was put forward August 20, when the grain handlers asked for a renewal of their fegreement with their employers with the stipulation that during the coming year there should be an increase in wges and that dock men should all be union men. Exporters point to the fact that two members of the committee of three grain lhandlers which Is attempting to bring about a settlement and Is Insisting on the unionizing of weighers and samplers, are samplers. Exporters express the opinion that the desire of these two men to get their jobs back Is responsible for the so licitude regarding weighers and samplers. Secretary Burns, of the Exporters' As sociation, expects a further parley today. In an attempt to settle the trouble. He believes It Is time the trouble is settled, but does not venture to predict the out come. Union men say there will be a general wnlkout by the entire waterfront federa tion unless the exporters show some will ingness to make concessions and aid the union in a peaceable settlement. tt was reported yesterday that today would bring further trouble between strikers and strikebreakers and that fights would increase until the strike Is settled. Clashes occurred yesterday and 1t is feared that these will multiply as Jong as the strike lasts. Assaulted by Vnlon Men. The most serious affray occurred yes terday when a crowd of union men as saulted and badly beat John Loftin. a 19-year-old boy. But for the timely ap pearance of Officer J. J. Murphy. Loftin might have received far more serious in juries than ho did, for. according to his testimony, one of the gang was armed with a piece of iron, while another had In his hand a large stone. Iftln and a friend. George Beardsly, have been in the employ of Kerr, Gif ford & Co. and for the past two weeks have been working at Montgomery Dock No. 3 and living on the steamer Bailey Gatzert. Yesterday it noon they deter mined to return to their homes at Arling ton and putting their belongings into a suitcase left the docket about 1 o'clock. When they reached the corner of Gold smith street and Albina avenue they were set upon by a crowd of six or seven men. Beardsly escaped by running to a street car. Loftin. however, encumbered by the suitcase, could not catch the car. . He was overhauled by the gang. Two of the fellows held him while the others rained blows upon the defenseless captive. Loftin was knocked down several times. Every time he attempted to get up he was knocked down again and his assailants neemed to have, no Intention of letting him go. Then Ofricer Murphy appeared. At the sight of the blue coat Loftin's assailants took to their heels and Mur phy busied himself with caring for young Loftin. A call was sent for the wagon, but be fore It arrived Captain Bruin was on the scene.' The young man was taken to headquarters and a physician summoned. Ijoflin'a right eye was swollen shut, his face and clothes were covered with blood and his noso was broken. A sharp cut across the nose at the point of the frac ture indicated that he had been struck with some weapon and Loftin swears that one of his assailants had in his hand a heavy piece of iron. Loftin was taken to the Good Samaritan Hospital, where his wounds were dressed by Dr. Wheeler. He was so badly heaten that while on his way to the hospital he could hear nothing and seemed dazed. Can Identify Assailants. Ioftin says he can Identify his as sailants and from the description he fur nished, the police think they know who they are. The matter has been left In the hands of Officer Murphy and It Is believed that the culprits will be ar rested today. l.oftin is slight in build, weighing not over ISO pounds, while his assailants are described as big. able-bodied men. Loftin came to the city but two weeks ago and Immediately went to work on the dock. Yesterday he received a letter from his mother in which the asked him to return home. His friend BeardUly Intends to stay with him at the hospital and when t v " M ' s- - ' " " "- ' ' ' ' LEWIS AND CLARK FAIR MOSCMEM IX CITY PARK ALMOST COMPLETED. Almost finished, the Lewis and Clark monument, whose base was laid by President Roosevelt, May 21, 1903, stands in City Park, at the head of Park avenue, a beautiful monument of white and black granite, about 38 feet high, erected by the Lewis and Clark Fair Corporation at a cost of $10,000. On each of the four faces of the die the square stone supporting the col umnIs inscribed the coat of arms of one of the four states whose territory lies within the boundaries of the old Oregon country Washington, Iilaho, Montana and Oregon. All the granite was quarried on Snake River, below Lewlston, except for the die, which came from Rockland Quarry, California, and Is of the same stone as that In the Custom House build ing in this city. Otto Schumann, who cut the stone, says that the finishing touches will all have been given to the monument by December 1. A plat form Is yet to be built about the base. , the time comes will prosecute his assail ants. The assault was witnessed by another strike breaker named C. T. Day. Business Agent Melby, of the Grain handlers Union, disclaims all knowledge of the affair and says that orders have been Issued to the men to refrain from all violence and misconduct. The Longshore men have a rule, he says, whereby any member who Is found drunk, or In any way disturbing the peace, is fined by the union. While no similar rule has been made by the Gralnhantllers, Melby says it is the spirit of the organization that such a rule be made. POLICE MUST BE VIGILANT Chief Gritzmaclier Issues Order to Break lTp "Slugging" Gangs. As a result of numerous assaults by strikers upon strikebreakers going to or returning from work. Acting Chief of Police Gritzmacher issued an order yesterday requesting patrolmen to keep a snarp lookout for gangs of sluggers. The order is as follows: "Instruct the officers of your relief, and especially those on duty in Lower Albina and the lower end of town, to be on the lookout for a lot of ruffians, or so-called strikers, committing brutal assaults on some, of the grain dock la borers. Several such assaults have oc curred within the last few days, where in a bunch of these ruffians attacked a smaller .number of these laborers (mostly two or three of them out for a stroll), and beat them up In a most cowardly and brutal maner. "The officers must make every possi ble effort to stop this brutal practice and arrest every person found so en gaged and report all other cases com ing to their knowledge wherein they are not eyewitnesses, that warrants may be obtained for the arrest and pun ishment of such persons. "(Signed) C. GRITZMACHER, "Acting Chief of Police." From the wording of the order, it Is evident that the police intend to put a stop to assaults and rigidly enforce the law. A number of cases which were not reported to the police have come to light, and these, with the num ber of assaults which were reported, have made it plain that something must be done to stop the practice. Although the union men emphatical ly deny that they are guilty of slug ging, it is plain that the union's orders in this respect are being disregarded. The order was read to the patrolmen as they went on duty yesterday, and they were made to understand that as saults must be stopped at any cost. PASSES AWAY IN HAWAII News Received of Death of Alfred M. Mollis, Formerly of Portland. Julius J. Wolf, a prominent Seattle busi ness man, who arrived in Portland last night, received word of the death at Honolulu Wednesday of Alfred M. Mellls, his brother-in-law. Mr. Mellia formerly lived In Portland and was the son of the late Rabbi Mellls. He moved to Honolulu 15 years ago. He was a brother of Fred R. Mollis, of Baker City, and of Mrs. Wolf, nee Helen Mellis. Ptomaine poison ing was the cause of death. Burial was at Honolulu. Growers Advised to Sell Apples. KIONA, Wash., Oct. 21. (Special.) Local applegrowers are being harassed by outside f ruitbuyers who wish to specu late in the apple crop. Our farmers are told that apples are so plentiful as to be a drug on the market, and they are ad vised to sell at any price. As Kiona ap ples are particularly fine this year, the growers are not inclined to listen to the advice of these gentlemen, and will hold their apples until a good price Is obtained. Growers are selling Fall apples readily at So cents per box, many orders being re ceived from Kennewick and other near-by towns. To cure scrofula, salt rheum, dyspepsia, catarrh and rheumatism, take Hood's Sarsaparilla. 1 PUTER'S BOOK IS GUI tASD-FRAtD KING PROMISES INTERESTING READING. Deals With Cases Where Statute of Limitations Saves Criminals ' From Prosecution. Rapid progress is being made by S. A. D. Puter on his book of exposure of Oregon land frauds, and It Is believed that, barring unexpected delays, the work will easily be ready for publication by January 1 next. He has already furnished more than 25,000 words of manuscript, which has been carefully revised and typewritten and is all ready for submis sion to the publisher. It is thought now that the book will embrace between 500 and 600 pages, including about 100 pages of illustrations and photographs of the principal actors in the celebrated trials. Photographs are being accumulated from all sides by Puter as fast as possible, and these are calculated to constitute important features of the forthcoming literary efforts of the distinguished king or the land-looters. Those In a position to know declare that the appearance of Puter's book is destined to create a great furore through out the country, and some are sanguine enough to predict that It will be pro- auctive or as many sensational develop ments as Lawson's famous articles on "Frenzied Finance." That the book will prove of more than local interest is evi dent from the fact that its various chap ters will deal largely with personages and events in a great many different cities and states. While the principal plot oi tne story will very naturally be laid in uregon, wasnington, L. c, Michigan, Wisconsin ana Minnesota, besides Call fornla, will also come in for a good share or attention, ana it is expected that some thing sensational will be evolved from the mass of information that is being gathered from all quarters. Puter Is telling his story in a complete and fearless manner, and leaves very little to the imagination. It Involves a large number of prominent Oreeon citi zens whom the statutes of limitation kindly excused from the operations of the Federal grand Jury, and these are certain to receive their full measure of considera tion at his 'hands. In this wav manv large tracts of land throughout the state upon which bogus titles have been issued will be brought under the limelight, and it is almost certain that some of his exposures will result in many political neartacnes. Deals in Eastern Oregon and through out Tillamook and other coast counties of the state, hitherto untouched by any official investigation, will be held up to public scrutiny and some of the methods employed by great railway corDora.tfnns in intimidating those who stood in their way during the frenzied rush to acquire timber lands in 1902 will also be laid bare. It is noteworthy that Puter has had more or less of a criminal career ever since his advent in Oregon nearly 20 j ears, ago, ana ne aoes not spare even himself in the recital nor attentat to shield his associates, some of whom have been In the habit of holding their heads at a nigh angle on account of the su premacy tnrough their ill-gotten rains. Puter is laughing in his sleeve at his critics, and says they know better than anybody why there is a moral necessity for the publication of his book; but wnetner tney ao or not makes no differ ence to mm. as the facts are bound come out, he declares.

GARBLED HIS INTERVIEW Draw Rest Rotten and Will Have to Be Replaced, but Main Structure Will Stand Against Any Flood, He Declares. Timid folk who have been alarmed by a sensational "story" In the Ladd news paper, to the effect that the Burnslde- Btreet bridge is rotten weak and wobbly and doomed to fall into the river at the next freshet, need worry no longer. Har ry . Stutsman, the .bridge engineer, who was Quoted as authority for the state ments made in the article, says ne gave out no such interview as that attributed to him. On the contrary, he says there is not the slightest ground for apprehen sion as to the condition of the structure. The only foundation for the story was a statement made by Mr. Stutsman to Coun ty Commissioner Lightner to the effect that the draw rest was old, and that the county would have to provide for replac. ing it in making up the bridges for the coming year. The draw rest does not support the draw and is independent of the pivot piers on which the draw swings. It is a structure of piles, parallel with the cursent, ex tending above and below the draw, and the draw, when open, swings over it. I did not say to Commissioner Light ner, nor to any other person, that the Burnside bridge was in a dangerous con- dition and liable to be swept away at any time, declared Mr. Stutsman to an Ore- gonian representative last night. On the contrary, I have said and now say again that the Burnside bridge is absolutely safe and will stand indefinitely. It has better foundation piers than the railroad bridge, or any other bridge on the liver. What Stutsman Really Said. "Commissioner Lightner came to the bridge and asked about possible repairs, He said the cost would be included in this year's estimate. I pointed put to him that the draw rest was old and would have to be replaced as soon as possible, as the timbers were rotten. I also said that the east end approach would have to be re placed with a steel viaduct, according to the conditions of the bridge franchise. The total cost of these improvements, I told him, would be J100.000. I said the draw rest might be swept away, should there be high water, but that would not affect the bridge itself in the least. The draw rests of both the Morrison and the railroad bridges were carried away sev eral years ago, but the draws were op erated the same as before. It only re quired more care on the part of the river captains in passing through. I simply re ported- these matters to Commissioner Lightner. 'Shortly afterward a man came to me and represented that he had been sent by the County Court to investigate the con dition of the Burnside bridge. I told him what I had told Mr. Lightner. I did not say that the bridge was in the least un safe. Engineer Taylor was present and heard what I did say. Neither did Mr. Taylor say that the bridge was unsafe The man, who it seems was a reporter, garbled my statement." It was my duty to report the neces sary repairs so that provision could be made for them. The draw-rest might stand for a year or two, or it might be carried away should there be a freshet. The east approach has stood a long time It is not dangerous, but the time is near when it will have to be replaced with steel viaduct. No more wooden roadways can be built. These repairs will require extraordinary and heavy expenditures and provision will have to be made for them The county has no authority, as I under stand it, to incur the heavy expenditures required. "Yellow," to Say the Least. "These estimates of repairs are made every year, but to have it announced that I said the bridge was unsafe and liable to be swept away is 'yellow,' to say the least." Mr. Stutsman's statement is corroborat ed by Commissioner Lightner, who de clares that while the piling that forms the dcaw-rests for the Burnside-street bridge might go out If a flood of extreme volume raced suddenly down the Wil lamette, this would not affect the use fulness of the bridge. It would only mean that new piling would have to be put In for a draw-rest. "I have discussed the rumored danger with the bridgemen who have examined the structure," said Mr. Lightner last night, "and they tell me that only the draw-rest piling is In any danger from a flood. And this flood would have to come down like a miilrace before these piles would be carried away back-water from the Columbia would not affect them In the least. "The draw stands on concrete founda tions and is said to be as safe as builders can make it, I am of the opinion that It will stand any flood such as those that come every year; in fact, I think it will hold its own with any other bridge over the river." BRIDGE IS OUT OF DATE. Madison-Street Structure Must Be Replaced by One of Steel. It Is conceded that the Madison-street bridge will have to be replaced with a steel structure. W. B. Chase, ex-City Engineer, under whose supervision It was rebuilt some seven years ago, recently made the statement to the Bast Side Im provement Association that the Madison bridge is a good structure, one of the best of the kind, but that it was not designed to carry the heavy street-cars that now use it. Sometimes three and four heavy electric cars, loaded with passengers, are on the bridge at the same time, and it was such traffic as this to which Mr. Chase referred. The East Side Improvement Association has taken up the matter of a new steel bridge on Madison street, and will inves tigate the condition of the present struc ture. It is the belief of County Commissioner Lightner, however, that the bridge is still good for a few years more. Said he, last night: -Last year the County Court ordered a thorough examination or the Madison street bridge. The experts that made this examination reported to us that the struc ture was good for four years more, at the end of which time every timber in It ought to be replaced. This gives the bridge three years more of service. Its foundations are said to be In the best of condition." Kew Grange Officers.

HOLD MEMORIAL SERVICE Daughters of Confederacy Honor Mrs. Jefferson Davis. Oregon Chapter, Daughters of the Con federacy, held an impressive memorial service at St. Stephen's Church yesterday afternoon in memory of Mrs. Jefferson Davis. Mrs. Jonnie George, president of the Oregon Chapter, called the meeting In response to a telegram of instructions from Mrs. George Henderson, president general of the National organization, and throughout the country and in England similar services were held. Dr. Ramsey, pastor of St. Stephen's, was at one time assistant rector of St. Stephen's Cathedral in New York City, which was Mrs. Davis' church, and had the privilege of knowing her well and visiting at her home. Mr. Ramsey made an eloquent address and told many interesting things about this women who was so loved by the South. He said that she had a distinct and impressive personality, and even one not acquainted with her history would have known that there was something in her past which had saddened but de veloped every womanly Instinct and noble trait of her life and character. He con siders h'er to have been a great woman, and a noble woman, and the many in cidents he related of her good and chari table deeds brought out new phases of her fine character. The peculiar position she occupied In New York society, be loved and honored by both Northerners and Southerners, was mentioned, also her special helpfulness to young people who came to that city without means or friends. Colonel L. C. Garrigus, a Southern man resident of Portland, also spoke, and hav ing been with Mrs. Davis at the time her husband was taken captive In North Carolina, he was well fitted to tell of her bravery, her devotion to the Southern cause and her indominitable spirit. The Daughters of the Confederacy and all members of the Confederate Veterans, both In Portland and all other cities which have chapters, will wear crepe for 30 days as a badge of mourning for the Mother of the Confederacy. Will Build Church and Manse. Rev. C. T. McPherson, who has been assigned to Kstacada Methodist Church, has taken up the work there and ex pects to erect a church and manse this conference year. The O. W. P. Town site Company has donated two lots for these buildings, and Rev. McPherson has already started a canvass for funds, re ceiving much encouragement. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT.
