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East Sixth street should not be rescinded.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. McKhiney Wants Divorce.
R. C afcKinney. the step-father of
Ooldia Kills, against whom a bigamy
charge was placed recently, has filed a
divorce suit In the Circuit Court. He al
leges that at the time he married his
wife, then Ada B. Lothrop, he did not
know that she was the wife of Rollin C.
Iothrop. KJnney says his wife subse
quently went to Denver, Colo., and se
cured a divorce from Lothrop. It was
granted October 21, 1904. She married
Kinney In Portland. October 16, 1002.
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. The defendants assert that the
laying of the cement In the basement was
Improperly done. For this reason they
refused to pay but $S00, while the price
contracted for was $12SS.50.
Candidates File Acceptance.
F.( J. McHenry, candidate of the So
cialists for the office of Representative
from Multnomah and Clackamas Coun
ties, has filed with County Clerk Fields
his acceptance of the nomination. H. W.

ADDS TO TRAVELING ELDERS
FREE METHODIST CONFERENCE
IXCREASES NUMBER.
Gathering Is Expected to Reaffirm
Its Opposition to Wearing
t of Ornaments.
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.

United States and Europe.
VICTORIA, B. C, April 30 Baron
Sakatanl, Japan's former Minister of
Finance, accompanied by well-known
Japanese financiers, arrived on the

Baron Sakatanl is accredited by Jap
anese newspapers with an official mis
sion to secure another foreign loan for

said:
"The newspapers say many things. My
sole object is to travel for pleasure, as
Is that of the party accompanying me.
Some, though, may- have come to do
some business. We go to Seattle,
thence to Chicago and New York, where
wo will remain three weeks, then cross
to London and after some ' time there
and In other European capitals, will go
to St Petersburg and from there home
ward by the Trans-Siberian Railroad.
This Is my first foreign trip and I am
looking forward to my visit in the United
States with great pleasure."
Baron Sakatanl revised Japan's finan
cial system, secured the adoption of the
gold standard and managed the financing
of the wars with China and Russia. He
resigned his portfolio as Minister of
Finance a few months ago.

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.
