10 SEE NO PAY"
Council Favors This Plan on
Street Railway.
MAKE THE UNITED ADOPT
Strong Sentiment That Requirement
for This Kind of Oar Be Embod
ied in Franchise for the New
Koad Better Car Service.
There is a strong sentiment among
members of the City Council In favor of
the passage of an ordinance requiring
the streetcar companies of Portland to
furnish seats for all passengers, or carry
free of charge all who stand. This was
evidenced by the expressions of several
members of the Council during the dis
cussion of provisions to be included In
the franchise sought by the United Rail
roads Company, at a special session of
the streets committee, held at the City
Hall yesterday afternoon. At one time
It looked as if a "no-seat-no-fare" clause
would be put into the franchise, but It
was passed over.
'I believe that we should insert a clause
tn that franchise calling upon the com
pany to furnish seats for every passenger
carried, or that it receive no pay within
the city limits for all who are forced to
stand." said Councilman Cottel. "I don't
see why the streetcar companies should
not be made to do this, and now Is a
food time to Initiate it."
"I have had an ordinance drawn up
for a long time, which I could Introduce,"
said Councilman Rushlight, "that would
cover all these points, and I am In favor
of such a measure. I have all of the
court decisions touching the matter, and
in all cases It has been held to be con
stitutional." "If we should put in a clause such as
Councilman Cottol advocates," commented
Councilman Concannon, "the cars would
run past every one. after the seats be
came full, and others who desired to
ride would be left waiting."
City Attorney Kavanaugh, who was
present to assist the committee in hand
ling the proposed franchise, said he had
been investigating the matter and had
arrived at the conclusion that the city
can enforce an ordinance requiring tliat
every passenger be furnished a seat or
carried free; furthermore, he said, the
police powers are so broad that the com
pany officials can be forced to stop cars
at every crossing within the corporate
limits of the city, so they could not pass
any one by.
"The' provisions of any franchises the
city has granted have no place in this
mutter." said City Attorney Kavanaugh.
"it docs not matter what the' Council
may have done, there is vested in the city
tho power to regulate the time-tables and
the operation of cars on any of the lines
In Portland a right which cannot be bar
tered away."
It lrf said to be probable that action will
he taken by members of the Council to
improve the conditions existing with re
gard to the streetcar service of 'the city,
as several of them expressed the belief
that the time is ripe for action.
No radical changes were made in the
terms of the franchise that will probably
be granted the United Railroads. The
ordinance was carefully inspected, sec
tion by section, with none but the mem
bers of the committee and the City At
torney present. It had been announced
that tho committee would hold a special
session for the purpose, and Herman Wit
tenberg and others of his company were
present. They were told, however, that
the matter would be postponed until 2
P. M. next Tuesday, and left, after which
the committee decided to take up the
franchise. The railway people will have
ample opportunity to be heard before the
franchise Is submitted to the Council for
action.
The only important action of the com
mittee was In voting to compel the com
pany to complete its line to Mount Cal
vary Cemetery before it will be allowed
to operate any cars in the city, and to
order that It must complete its road to
Illllsboro by January 1. 1911. or forfeit
Its franchises. It is certain that Mr. Wit
tenberg will set up emphatic objection to
the provision which forbids the opera
tion of cars within the city limits be
fore the completion of the line to Mount
Calvary. He contends and will fight for
the right to operate the city end of the
line as soon as it is possible to get cars
for the service.

KELLY GIRL IS ILL
Young Woman on Verge of a
Nervous Breakdown.
WHY SHE LEFT HER HOME
Believing She Had Failed in Studies,
She Does Not Re-enter University,
but Deceives Mother by Going
Dally to the Campus.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Or, Jan. 9. (Special.) Miss Winifred
Kelly, who returned to Eugene this
afternoon. Is reported ill in bed. She
refused to tell why she suddenly left
home, but It has been learned from the
registrar that the girl has not been
attending the University this year, as
her family had supposed. Her uncle.
Dr. Cheshire, explains that Miss
Kelly, believing she had failed In her
June examinations, was under the im
pression that she would not be able to
take up her college work until the
opening of the second semester.
Fearing to let her parents know that
she. had not re-entered' the University,
the girl went to the campus each day,
but the strain of trying to keep the
secret from her mother has been too
much, and she is now on the verge
of a nervous breakdown. Rather than
face her mother with the truth, be
cause she had been reproved for fail
ure in previous years in high-school
work, she decided on the impulse of
the moment to leave home and to let
the future take care of itself.
' The family Is again united and
happy, but the saddest part of the
whole affair is the fact that the young
woman labored 'under a misapprehen
sion regarding her 'standing in college,
which in no way would have prevented
her from taking up her studies when
the University opened in September
last.
LEAVES HOME IS A "POUT"
"Winifred Kelly Believed to Have
Been Reproved by Mother.
-ALBANY, Or., Jan. 9. (Special.) Miss
Winifred Kelly, whose mysterious dis
appearance from her home In Eugene
Tuesday evening caused such great ex
citement In that city yesterday, returned
home today noon. She was accompanied
by her uncle. Dr. W. L. Cheshire, of Eu
gene, who came to this city this morning
to return with her.
Alternating between cheerful evasion
and semi-tearful requests to be excused
from explaining, Miss Kelly this morning
reiterated her refusal late last night to
make a delinlte statement as to why she
left home so suddenly. It Is definitely
learned, however, that she had had some
trouble at home, and In a "pout," after
her mother had reproved her, she came
to Albany on the train, reaching here at
8:50 Tuesday night.
Miss Kelly was greatly surprised at the
furore her absence had caused. She avers
that she intended to return to Eugene
yesterday, but missed the train she in
tended to take, and that she would have
gone home today anyway, had not search
been Instituted for her.
'I came, down on private business," was
Miss Kelly's response when pressed for
an explanation today. She explained the
mystery of her trip by saying that she
decided to come so suddenly that she did
not have time to let her parents know
she was here, but supposed her mother
would know where she had gone and
that there would be no alarm. Smilingly
and diplomatically she evaded and avoid
ed all efforts to learn the exact cause of
her disappearance, but said she would
explain fully after she got home.
"It's nobody's business, anyway she
vouchsafed.
When shown press reports of her dis
appearance she seemed to realize for the
first time what alarm her absence had
created, and then her cheerful manner
changed abruptly.
"Think of the notoriety!" she tearfully
exclaimed.
When Miss Kelly reached Albany Tues
day evening she went at once to the Russ
House, where she registered plainly as
"Miss Winifred Kelly. Eugene." She re
mained in her room alone all Friday night
and left It only for meals all day yester
day. That her determination to leave
Eugene was sudden is evidenced by the
fact that she brought no baggage of any
Kind.
TRUSTEE COMPANY PLANS
WILL SOOJf DECIDE DETAILS OF
TWO NEW BUILDINGS.
Plans for W. D. Fenton's Structure
Will Soon Be Ready Progress
on Hazelwood Block.
Officials of the Trustee Securities Com
pany, of Kew York; the Seattle Trustee
Company and the Portland Trustee Com
pany conferred yesterday at the Portland
Hotel with reference to getting the local
company under way to carry out plans
already outlined for the Improvements to
be made on their properties on the Pen
noyer and Plttock blocks.
A. L. Hawley, president, represented
the New York company; Judge W. D.
Wood, president, represented the Seattle
company, and J. B. Meikle the local com
pany. Mr. Meikle Is vice-president of the
New York corporation, is vice-president
of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, and
will take en Important office in the local
company, as he Intends to make Portland
his home for some months to come.
While nothing definite was accom
plished yesterday, H was said by mem
bers of the conference that before Mr.
Hawley returns East It is expected to
agree upon some plan whereby work will
be started on one and perhaps both the
blocks the coming Summer. Another con
ference of the three officials will be held
in about ten days.
Plans for W. D. Fenton's Building.
Architects are working on the plans of
W. D. Fenton's building thafls to occupy
the inverted L-shaped lot fronting on
Seventh and skirting the small piece on
the corner of Ankeny street. The old
buildings have been torn down and the
material removed, leaving the ground
ready for the excavators, who will begin
work as soon as the contrace is let, which
will be in a few days. It is expected to
begin the erection within 30 days of the
building, which is to be of mixed con
struction, the exterior wa.3 to be of con
crete reinforced with steel, with mill con
struction on the interior, of the style
known as slow-burning. An agreement is
drawn with Russell & Blyth, who own
the small V-shaped lot on the corner,
tapering to but a few feet in the rear, for
a party wall on ground belonging to that
firm and Judge Fenton, so that in the
future a building may be -erected on tho
corner having walls already built on two
sides.
A lease for a term of years has been
given Class A Prudhomme for the Fenton
building, to begin after Its completion.
Work on Hazelwood Building.
Work is going on rapidly in facing the
new Hazelwood building with cement.
The building was partly destroyed by fire
some months ago. Just as it was ready
for occupancy. Little damage was done
the walls, but the girders and studding
on two floors had to be replaced, which
has been a tedious process. The firm ex
pects to occupy the premises between
now and the first of next month, and in
about ten days will begin removing heavy
machinery from the old location at Fifth
and Oak and to Install new machinery as
well.

Portlanders Blamed for Omission In
Seattle Realty Report,
SEATTLE. Wash.. Jan. 8. (Special.)
From Portland haa come word that the
real estate brokers and the Chamber of
Commerce of that city "ere incensed at
the Seattle Real Estate Association be
cause of the fact that In a recently-.
published "report of real estate values.
data from Portland are conspicuous Be
cause of their absence. That such is the
fault of the Portland men and of them
alone, is the declaration made today by
R. C. Ersklne, secretary of the local
realty association.
Ersklne declares that he sent to Port
land the same kind of blank forms sent
to other cities Included in the report and
that no attention was paid to letters
which followed asking for the desired
data. The Portland Chamber of Com
merce replied that it had referred the
request to the Title Guarantee & Trust
Company of that- city, but no word came
from that Arm. Letters were also sent
to Roundtree & Diamond, Goodnough &
Stearns. Lamont & Harris, George J.

BRYAN WINS BY CLOSE MARGIN
Johnson Men Almost Prevent In
dorsement In Washington.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Jan. 9. (Special.)
Hugh Wallace and George riazzard all
but prevented an indorsement of William
Jennings Bryan for the Democratic Presi
dential nomination given yesterday after
noon by the Democratic State Committee.
At one time the Bryan resolutions were
killed, but they were dragged out again
and, forced through, the committee after
Charles G. Helfner, ex-Insurance Com
missioner of this state, had declared that
unless Bryan was given the indorsement
the impression would go out at once that
Governor John A. Johnson, of Mlnne
stoa. had won In Washington.
Prior to 1896, when Wallace became f
gold Democrat, he was the most in
fluential Democrat in Washington. He
was National Committeeman during
Cleveland's second term and was re
elected at the Chicago convention. He
has spent most of his time in New York
recently but came out to this state to
set In motion a movement in the interests
of Governor Johnson.

THE SOUL OF A HOTEL
How One Manager With High Ideals
Made His House famous.
HINTS FOR PARTICULAR PEOPLE
To people who appreciate good food.
and that means most people, the
kitchen of their favorite restaurant or
hotel is an object of much interest.
Too often the place where food is pre
pared and the methods pursued there
will not bear close Inspection, and one
often feels that "ignorance is bliss" in
this Instance at least. It is a relief
to know 'that the kitchens of many
modem hotels are models of cleanli
ness and hygiene. ,
In one of the great hotels for which
New York is famous, the St. Regis,
perfection in the kitchen has been car
ried to the superlative. It is a favorite
expression of Mr. R. M. Haan, wno
presides so well over the destinies of
Hotel St. Regis, that, 'The Soul of a
Hotel is the Kitchen. If that is wrong
all is wrong." A visit to the series of
great white halls In which the tempt
ing edibles are prepared will convince
the most exacting person that ins
Soul" of this hotel is right and rightly
managed. Lined with white tiling.
floored with white marble, fitted wltn
glass and porcelain receptacles for all
kinds of food, every object is spick
and span from tbe great soup kettles
to the cook's - apron. In this won-
drously wholesome kitchen the ven
tilation is so perfect that dust and dis
agreeable odors are unknown. Add to
this the fact that only the best 01
everything in the way of edibles Is
provided for use in this perfect kitchen
and that the chef and his numerous
assistants are masters in the art of
cookery, one can readily see why
dining at the St. Regis is bo enjoyable
and so healthful withal.
Not only is "the soul" of the St.
Regis right, but everything is right
even to the charges, which are the
same as those of other hotels of the
flrst class.
from Japan, according to reports re
ceived today, the Tokio government has
withdrawn a privilege formerly given to
emigrants to America whereby their term
of conscription was reduced to one year
providing they return from abroad be
fore they were 32 years of age.

Lard is made from hog-fat; its
origin is the pig-sty. It makes food
greasy, indigestible and dangerous.
Cottolene comes from the cotton
fields of the Sunny South. Its basis
is the purest refined cotton-seed oil. It
is pure, healthful, and makes digestible,
nourishing food. It is
Nature's gift from the
Sunny South, and is the
best frying and shorten
ing medium possible to
manufacture.
Once get in the habit of
using Cottolene, and you
will never let lard enter
your kitchen again.
