OF GIT! ENGINEER
First Step Taken Toward Se
curing Boulevard Along
Vista Avenue.
LOOK OVER PROPOSED SITE
Council Committee on Streets In
spects Property to Be Improved.
Difference of Opinion as to
What Plan Will Be Best.
After viewing the acene yesterday
afternoon, the City Council committee
on streets voted, two to three, in favor
of recommending1 to the main body the
adoption of City Engineer Taylor's plan
for a boulevard on Vista avenue, to be
60 feet wide. This is the first formal
action to be taken in the matter, and
Is regarded as of great importance, as
it signifies that sooner or later tho
beautiful Heia-hts will be laid out in a
manner that will enhance the grandeur
of the scene around the crest of the
hill, already known far and wide for
lte natural beauty.
It is estimated that it will cost prob
ably $150,000 to complete this piece of
boulevard, the first large task of the
kind officially undertaken in the city's
history. The proposed boulevard fol
lows the Portland Heights branch of
the Portland Railway, Light & Powir
Company's system,- which is regarded
throughout the country as probably the
most beautiful trolley ride in America.
The view is unobstructed as It now
stands, all along the way, and it is be
lieved by those who are pushing the
plan that this is the time to put the
work through. By so doing, it is ar
gued, there will be for all time the
open and unobstructed view toward the
east, so that the city, the mountains
and the rivers, as well- as a vast lot o"
the surrounding scenery, may be seen
clearly.
There is a difference of opinion
among the Councilmen aa to whether
the survey made and recommended by
City Engineer Taylor is the most prac
tical to be had, but, as the committee
Is necessarily bound to be guided by
his recommendation, the vote resulted
as stated, and formal proceedings
have been commenced.
Among the property-owners on the
Heights there is also a difference of
opinion as to the best survey, some be
lieving the boulevard, if constructed at
all, should be put through the side hill,
which at many points towers high to
the west, along the line. Others agree
with the City Engineer that the best
view is obtainable by running the
lines farther cast and building a
heavier retaining wall to insure safety
on that side. Some of the Councilmen
present, notably Mr. Rushlight, de
clared that there is grave danger in
running the east line out too far, as
he said he feared the walls might give
way and bury the houses below.
In order to get a personal view of
the situation on the Heights, Council
men Vaughn, Rushlight, Concannon,
Kellaher and Beldlng, accompanied by
City Engineer Taylor, took a trip to
the scene yesterday afternoon and in
spected the property, after which the
vote, as stated,' was taken.
EXPLOSION STARTS BLAZE
Fire Originating in Arsenal Burns
440 Buildings.
PORT AU PRINCE, Haytl. July .
The disastrous Are which was started
In the vicinity of the Palace and Senate
buildings here yesterday and was be
lieved to have been controlled, after
400 buildings were destroyed, broke out
again during the night and caused fur
ther extensive damage. The renewal of
the conflagration was caused by an ex
plosion in the arsenal, which shook the
whole town, damaging many buildings
and scattering blazing embers over a
wide area.
Before the flames started by this
explosion were subdued, 40 more build
ings had been destroyed. The Chamber
of Deputies and the large establish
ment of the Congregation of St. Louis
were menaced for a time by the flames,
but they were saved without damage.
CAUGHT PALMING OFF GEMS
Jewelers' Cashier Stops Thieves by
Quickness With Gun.
NEW YORK. July 6. What is declared
to have been a bold attempt to rob the
firm of Cooper & Forman. diamond bro
kers In Maiden Lake, was frustrated by
the watchfulness of the firm's cashier
today. While two men were examining
a tray of gems in the showroom,. Wil
liam Stenson, the cashier, walked up
behind . them and covered them with a
revolver,, directing them to throw up their
hands.
Stenson said that he had seen the men
palm several stones and when they made
a dash for liberty one of the men drop
ped several diamonds. Stenson brought'
them to a halt and turned them over to
the police. The men said they were
James D. Shank and Frederick Kenney,
both of New York.

CHICAGO, July ". The Tribune today
says:
Seventy-two dead and 2736 injured are
the second-day totals of the accidents

JUDGE O'DAY DECIDES STREET
ASSESSMENT CASE.
Method of Levying on Property for
Seventeenth-Street Improve
ment Held Illegal.
That property-owners receiving an
equal benefit from Btreet improvement
must be assessed equally, was the de
cision of Judge O'Day, in the Circuit
Court yesterday. The case was that of
Joseph Reiff and other taxpayers against
the city and members of the City Council.
The Council, on August 4, 1904. passed an
ordinance for the improvement of Seven
teenth street, between Vaughn and
Marshall, with macadam. The cost of
the improvement was assessed to abutting
property-owners without consideration of
the benefits to be derived by other tax
payers on the same street. Judge O'Day
set aside the assessments, and allowed
the writ of review.
The street has long since been improved
and some of the assessments paid, but it
will now be necessary for the city offi
cials to re-assess the entire property.
Various irregularities are alleged In the
petition, among them that the Council re
fused to hear the objections of the dis
senting property-owners, and that Thomas
C. Devlin, then City Auditor, kept only
a pencil memorandum of the benefits and
assessments to each abutting lot, and
that this was not filed. The improvement
is said to have been made to facilitate the
hauling of freight and merchandise from
the railroad warehouses to the down-town
business-houses.
The complaining taxpayers also asserted
that the notice of improvement was
posted at Seventeenth and Madison
streets, a long way from the property in
question, that no notices were ever mailed
to the owners of the property, and that
proper publication was not had. In
rendering' his decision Judge O'Day said:
The City Auditor failed in this case to
make a preliminary assessment In accor
dance with the benefits, as U clearly re
quired by the charter. The court Is of the
opinion that In making the preliminary as
sessments It is the duty of the Auditor to
go out and look over the property eo that he
can exercise his discretion as to which prop
erty will be most benefited by the improve
ment. The City Engineer filed a report showing
the cost of the work to be done in front of
each lot, and the Auditor sat down and
from the Engineer's report wrote a notice,
paying no attention to benefits, but taxing
against each lot the cost of the work to be
done in front of It.
Protests were filed with the Council, as
serting that the assessment was unjust, as
very evidently It was. Now, the law says
that the Council shall give heed to these
protests and consider them. These objec
tions were made, and the Council, very gentlemanly-like,
put them on file. That is all
that the record shows. The statute says
the Council must consider protests, , and if
protests are considered, that fact must ap
pear on the record. The record shows
nothing except that the protests were placedV
on file.
So far as can be determined from this
record, neither the Council nor the Auditor
paid more than the most perfunctory atten
tion to this statute in levying this assess
ment. No effort, apparently, was made to
assess in proportion to the benefits.
The court is therefore forced to conclude
that the record is defective; that the Audi
tor failed to make a preliminary assessment;
that the protests of the property-owners
were not considered by the Council; that
the plan of assessment adopted was wrong,
and defective in that It was not in accord
ance with the benefits derived from the Im
provement. The writ of review will be allowed, the
proceedings of the Council set aside, and
the Council will be allowed to proceed In
accordance with the law to assess this prop
erty In accordance with Its benefits.
The' suit was brought by Joseph Reiff,
George de Vol, C. F. Lewis, Mary Jacob
sen, William Jacobsen and the George
Ainslle IDstate Company against the city,
J. B. Werleln, treasurer, Thomas' C.
Devlin, H. R. Albee, L. Zimmerman, D.
L. Sherrett, A. K. Bentley. C. EL Rumelin,
B. D. Sigler, F. T. Merrill, A. F. Flegel,
Matt Foeller, J. P. Sharkey and Sandford
Whiting, Councilmen when the improve
ment was made.
Reprimanded for Shooting.
John McKeown. who was suspended
from the Juvenile Court on a Reform
School sentence last week, was given a
reprimand yesterday by Chief Proba
tion Officer Hadley for shooting a re
volver loaded with blank cartridges on
the Fourth. Although the boy broke the
city ordinance in so doing, Judge Gan
tenbeln did not think the offense was
sufficient to call for a commitment to the
Reform School. The revolver was taken
from him.
Charges Wife With Roaming Streets.
E. C. Seol has answered his wife's di
vorce complaint with the assertion that
Instead of staying at home nights and
caring for the children, as a dutiful wife
and mother should, she roams the streets.
He says his life has been made miserable
by her uncouth habits, and that he went
to California to find a new location and
start anew. When he sent for his wife
and the children, he asserts, she refused
to come. He asks the custody of the
children. He married Annie M. Seol No
vember 14, 1888.
Argue the Bond Cases.
City Attorney Kavanaugh Is to go to
Salem Wednesday, when he will argue the
cases before the Supreme Court which
involve the charter amendments and bond
issues. It is believed that a decision from
the court will be prompt, and that it will
be but a short time until electors of
Multnomah County will know whether or
not the bonds are legal. The case went
to the Supreme Court on appeal from
the Circuit Court.
War Clouds Have Vanished.
PANAMA. July S. The announcement
of the resignation of Senor Arias as can
didate for the Presidency has resulted in
dissipating the threatening conditions
which Friday were disturbing the peace
of the republic Today the war clouds
have disappeared and resentment seems
to have been forgotten, ail things point
Ins; to an orderly election throughout the
country. It is believed the overwhelming
majority obtained by Senor Obaldla's par
tisans at the recent municipal elections
In most of the provinces is the chief rea
son of Senor Arias' resignation.

" Tax All Church Property.
CHICAGO, July 6. Taxation of church
property was advocated strongly by the
Rev. Q. H. Harnly yesterday in a sermon
In the Austin Baptist Church.
"The church of Jesus Christ," the pas
tor said, "will never have rendered unto
Caesar the things that are Caesar's until
she has paid her full quota of taxes on
all property she possesses.
"Now there are millions of dollars
worth of church property that is exempt
from tax. The burden of tax upon the
remaining property, therefore must be ln-
creased to make up the differences and
thus citlsens who may have no interest
whatever In the church and who may not
care to labor toward its work are com
pelled indirectly to do so."
