At the meeting Tuesday night a committee was appointed to confer with the City Engineer about lowering the grade of the avenue from West avenue tastward, and also to take aggressive measures to expedite the proceedings for the widening. Opposition to the widening through Center Addition has subsided, so H Is announced, and the proceedings in clude the opening of the street throsigh the Laild fnrm. In order to reduce the burden of the cost of widening the street It s proposed to assess property for a dis tance of 1000 feet on each side of the street on the ground that the benefit Is distributed. tht far. There are some buildings in Montavilla to move back to conform to the new street line, but in Center Addition there are quite a num ber to move. By assessing property 1000 feet on each side of the street the burden will be very light. New Pavino ' Plant. The Pacific Bridge Company has included In Its dredging plant at East Salmon end Water street a plant for the manufacture of bi tuminous paving material.

On the dock is a targe furnace and room for mix ing crushed rock with the bituminous stuff. The plant stands on the dock built at the foot of Kast Salmon street and is housed with corrugated galvanized iron. Manager George Simon announces that an expert has been engaged to pre pare specflcatlons for machinery and crusher required in the plant. Practically all the rock used may be obtained from the bottom of the Willamette River, ex cept the rock tobe crushed. If the company can reduce the cost of hard surface pavement even one-half iV Is the concern many property-owners are look ing for. EX-PORTLANDER DEAD IN EAST. NeWS of the death of Garret H.

HITS OFFICER WITH SLEDGE ITALIAN WOMAN" ATTACKS GEORGE B. MURRAY. janitors, it 'is said by authorities that there should be a new and modern sys tem of bubbling fountains Installed, which would Insure absolute freedom from dan ger as to infection. Mrs. Rose DeClccl Fells With Ter rific Blow Patrolman Who Comes to Arrest Her; Mrs. Rose DeClccio, an Italian wom an with a fondness for trouble, laid out Patrolman George B. Murray with a sledgehammer, while that officer was trying to arrest her, late yesterday afternoon. Catching the officer un awares, she struck him a terrific blow from behind and but for his helmet the officer's skull would undoubtedly have been fractured. Although felled by the blow, Murray got up at once, disarmed the woman, overpowered her and secured her with handcuffs. Then he fainted from loss of blood. Passers-by held the woman until the patrol wagon arrived. Mur ray was hurried to St. Vincent Hos pital, it being feared his injuries were serious. City Physician Ziegler found, however, that the wound was not dan gerous and last night the officer was taken home. Mrs. DeCiccio was wanted by the po lice on a charge of threatening to kill her husband. Divorce proceedings are pending and the woman has been very troublesome for some time past, mak ing dire threats at all who incurred her dislike. When the husband swore to a com plaint against his wife, early in the afternoon, it was given to Murray for service. He located the woman at her home, at the southeast corner of rand avenue and East Stark street. She disappeared into the house as he ap proached. Her husband was at the place and the officer paused to talk with DeCic cio. While he was so engaged the woman armed herself with a sledge hammer weighing ten pounds, slipped up behind the officer and struck him a murderous blow on top of the head. He was stunned and fell to the ground, but got up before the woman could strike a second blow, and grappled with her. After a struggle he got her hands fastened and then fainted from the pain and loss of blood. The woman is being held at the City Jail on a charge of assault with a dan gerous weapon. Murray will not be able to report for duty this week. CUPS TO BE SUSPENDED Move to Lessen Danger of Infection of School Drinking Vessels. A' big step toward better health condi tions In the public schools of Portland has been taken by the Board of Educa tion, which has ordered that all drinking cups shall be suspended, instead of being allowed to lie together under the faucets, as heretofore. City Health Officer Pohl called attention to the matter, and the directors at once recognized the merit in her contention against the old system. "There is a grave danger in allowing the drinking cups to lie together under the faucets." said Dr. Pohl. "If a child has diphtheria or tother contagious dis ease, afterwards throwing, the water over all the other cups, it immediately infects the whole set of cups and becomes a pos itive menace to health. Thus is the dis ease spread at a rapid rate throughout the school, and it becomes an epidemic, perhaps. Just through one child's con tamination." , While the danger of contagion is great ly decreased by the new order, if carried Into effect properly by the principals and MOT READY TO TAKE OATH Judge Morrow Finishing Private Business Before Going on Bench. Whether Judge R. G. Morrow will qualify and take the oath of office this week or next, or whether his unfin ished business will occupy his atten tion for another month, he would not say last night. He said that he had several cases in which he is appearing as attorney which could not be turned over to another. When asked how nu merous these were, he would not un dertake to say. Judge Morrow said that he was sure he could not qualify this week, as he will go to Tacoma to attend a meeting of the United Artisans. Judge Thomas O'Day, whom Judge Morrow was elected to succeed, said in court yesterday that he expected to have a talk with Judge Morrow this week to see if he would not qualify soon. Judge O'Day stepped down from the bench July 18, surrendering it to Judge Mororw after the former had held it two weeks over his term as an accommodation to his successor. Judge O'Day wishes, he says, to act as attor ney In a number of suits, but cannot do so while he remains on the bench. Judge Morrow said last night that he had a perfect understanding with Judge O'Day, and that the latter had consented to remain on the bench until Judge Morrow should wind up his af fairs as an attorney.
