Attorney Brings Salt Against City to Have Contract for Job Canceled. Councilman George S. Shepherd filed suit for the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Com pany against the City of Portland. In the Circuit Court yesterday. The complaint asks that the city be cited to show cause why the contract for the $25,000 fill on East Sixth street should not be rescinded. In case sufficient cause is not shown, the mill company asks that the court restrain the city from having the fill made. The City Engineer estimated it would cost about $25,0"0 to fill East Sixth street from Sherman to Division. Nearly all the property abutting on this portion of Sixth street is owned by the Inman-Poulsen Company. That firm estimates the fill will cost $30,000, and strenuously objects to paying the assessment. It had been expected that the city would be the first to take action In the matter, as It was known that the mill people did not pro pose io make payment without a fight. The complaint states that the mill owners were never notified that a fill was to be made, the first intimation they had of such an improvement to the street being when the Pacific Bridge Company commenced the work. Notice of the im provement was published in the Portland Dally Abstract, but, according to the con tention of the Inman-Poulsen Company, that paper Is not the official paper of the city, and does, not have a general circula tion. hcy assort that the notice was never seen by them. Another alleged ground for ceasing work upon the till is that East Sixth street at this point was never dedicated. For this reason, .It Is asserted, the street should be vacated by the city. R. C.

Judge O'Day Hears Testimony. Judge Thomas O'Day, of the Circuit Court, heard the testimony yesterday of Charles 6. Fisher and Edward Barrett against C Aerne, Jr., and Norman D. Evans. They are seeking to recover $iS8.60 and $100 attorneys' fees for exca vating a basement on lot 6, block 328, Portland.

At the session of the Free Methodist conference yesterday morning, in the First Church, East Ninth and Mill streets. Bishop W. T. Hogue presiding, it was decided to increase the number of traveling elders to ' three, and to undertake extension work in Eastern Oregon. Standing committees for the ensuing year were appointed. The election of the three elders, usually the most Important action outside the stationing of ministers, resulted in the election of N. Welter, W. N. Coffee and D. W. Cook. The stationing committee will assign districts to these elders, but Mr. Welter will undoubtedly be given the district east of the moun tains. The following standing1 committees were elected for the ensuing- year: Education O. N. Blair, H. E. Krelder, W. N. Coffee; reform W. J. Johnson, J. F. Lewis, Q. W. Bondurant; publica tion D. W. Cook, Wesley Neet, J. H. Brown; Sunday schools E. D. Black man, R. A. Trullinger, E. I. Harring ton; state of the work Elders W. N. Coffee, N. Welter, D. W. Cook; exami ners of quarterly conference records H. J. Blair, W. H. Connell, D. M. Cathey; conference minutes Secretary H. V. Haslam; conference minutes fund N. Welter; ministerial relations J. H. Brown, W. J. Johnston, D. W. Cook, G. W. Bondurant, Thomas H. Symms, W. E. Goode; resolutions W. W. Gatts, G. W. Bondurant, J. T. Eads; church ex tension W. Ew Goode, D. ' W. Cook, John Glen, T. M. Cathey, Thomas H. Symms; chairman of committeess educa tion, H. E. Krelder; reform'. D. W. Cook; publication, J. F. Lewis; Sunday school, 1.1. Harrington; state of church, the three elders. Professor A.' Beers, of the Seattle school, was Introduced to the conference and made an honorary member. Cyrus Cook was received from the (South Da kota conference. J. E. Hockett was trans ferred from the Texas to the Oregon conference. D. J. Goode, of Salem.with drew from the conference. EL , W. Achilles, of ' the ' Columbia River con ference, was made an honorary member. J. 3. Mowery, of the Wesleyan Church, was accorded the privileges of the con ference. E. L. Smith was received from the Washington conference. In the reports from ministers In the field of support received it was disclosed that the highest sum paid any one minister during the year was a little over $800, and that was paid to W. N. Coffee, presiding elder for the Portland district, and the others received sums ranging from $250 to $400 per annum. Ministers of the Free Methodist Church do not re ceive a salary, but trust to the Lord to provide what is necessary for their support. They do not take Into considera tion the matter of support, but go any where they are sent without a murmur, no matter how unpromising the field may be. How they manage to subsist on the support as reported yesterday is one of the mysteries, and yet every report submitted was full of hope and cheer fulness. This- conference will doubtless do as all the other conferences have done reaffirm Its opposition to secret societies and declare for plainness of dress, con demning all unnecessary ornaments, and for prohibition of the liquor traffic Last year the conference declared against gold rimmed spectacles. Bishop Hogue wears a pair of steel-rimmed spectacles worth probably 25 cents. in the entire con ference, not a man or woman can be seen wearing jewelry. Following are the delegates: Ministers John Glen, W. Barrett. E. J. Harrington, W. N. Coffee, J. D. Cook. W. W. Gatts, T. H. Symms, H. V. Haslam, G. W. Bondurant, W. J. Bowerman, S. Q. Roper, B. D. Blackman, W. El Goode, J. H. Brown, O. N. Blair, N. Welter. D. J. Goode, H. J. Blair, W. J. Johnson, B. L. Knoll, J. F. Lewis: laymen C. L. Thayer. D. M. Cathey, W. Single. Wesley Neet, Mrs. C. E.

C, April 30 Baron Sakatanl, Japan's former Minister of Finance, accompanied by well-known Japanese financiers, arrived on the steamship Kaga Maru this morning.

Spring styles Vianan BnnpB at Rosenthal's CLEARS THE COMPLEXION OVERNIGHT Pimples, Rash, Eruptions, Etc Quick ly Eradloated by New sidn Remedy. Since Its discovery one year agro, poslam, the new skin remedy, has, in its extraordinary accomplishments, ex ceeded the most sanguine expectations of the eminent specialist who gave it to the world. It has cured thousands of cases of eczema and eradicated facial and other disfigurements ot years' standing. The terrible Itching; attend ing eczema Is stopped with the first application, giving proof of its cura tive properties at the very outset. In less serious skin affections, such as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads, acne, barber's itch, etc., results show after an overnight application, only a small quantity being required to effect a cure. A muddy or sallow complexion Is noticeably improved by a single ap plication. Those who use poslam for these minor skin troubles can now avail themselves of the special 50-cent pack age, recently adopted to meet such needs. Both the 50-cent package and the regular $2 jar may now be ob tained in Portland at the Skldmore Drug Co. and other lead drug stores. Samples for experimental purposes may be had free of charge by writing direct to the Emergency Laboratories, 32 West Twenty-fifth Street, New York City.
