1Q THIS MOICTITO OltEGOyiAN. TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 15, 1903.
REDUCE COST IF
CITY ENDS FIGHT
Power Company Submits to
Executive Board Condition
al Bid for Lighting.
OTHERWISE PRESENT RATE
So Action Is Taken on Flre-Tear
Contract, but Intimation Is Made
That Court Will Settle
the Controversy.
There i to be no reduction in the cost
of lighting the city for the next five
Tears, unless the Executive Board gives
up the fight It has waged for months
against the Portland Railway. Light &
Power Company on the monthly bills of
the corporation. Each month the Board
has cut off one-third the sum claimed, so
that by December 31. 1908. the amount
In dispute will aggregate $25,000. Only
the one bid. submitted by the power com
pany was received for Illumination, and
action upon It was deferred until next
Paturday morning at 8:S0 o'clock, when
the Executive Board will meet.
Fight Must Be Dropped.
Th bid submitted by President Josse
Ivn was accompanied by a letter over his
a'gnature. In which he declared that,
originally, he intended to submit a lower
figure this time, but the action of the
Executive Board forestalled such action.
Inasmuch as the city had seen fit to
set up a contention, and proposed fight
ing his company, he said, he would not
make any reduction In the cost of light
ing. However, he Included a bid of low
er rates, based upon the provision that
the fight against the company be dropped
by the city, and all claims paid In full.
President Josselyn said in his letter
that he considered this offer of the com
pany perfectly fair. and. according to his
figures. If the municipality awards the
contract to the company. It will effect a
eaving. based on the low bid, of $35,000
In five years.
The low bid. based on the discontinua
tion of the fight on the company by the
Executive Board, Is $73 for arc lamps on
the underground districts and $0 In the
aerial districts; the bid for arc lamps,
based on a continuation of the contest.
Is $83.60 for aerial and $75 for under
ground districts, these figures being the
annual cost.
Cost of Incandescents Raised.
When It came to the bid for In
candescent lamps, commonly known as
l-eandle-power lights, a big; Increase
was asked. The company has been re
ceiving $240 a month for 1625 of these,
but this bid of the company is at the
rate of $1 a month for each, or a total
of $1625 a month, as compared with
the present, rate of $340 a month.
When these figures were read Oskar
Huber, representing the company, de
clared that It was a mistake, and he
went and called up President Josselyn
over the telephone. Mr. Huber re
turned to tho committee room with the
information that the company would
prefer to Install meters and give the
city meter rates than to continue the
inrandescent service at the present
rate. Mayor Lane and members of the
committee admitted that the charge la
now too low, but they said they would
never pay. the rate on the present bid.
Mayor Lane, who has led the fight
of the city against the company, had
aid prior to the opening of the bid,
that the envelope containing the bid
Ms a grand prize package."
"I knew It was a grand prize pack
age," said Mayor Lane, when the fig
ures were read on the bid for incan
descent lamps. "And Just mind you,
the controversy between the city and
the company did not at all concern
these little lamps. It's a sure enough
(rand prise package." ,
Declares Offer Is Fair.
Mr. Huber sought to show the
Mayor and committeemen that the
company's bids, as submitted, are fair,
but he did not succeed to the extent
of securing Immediate approval of
either bid. It Is believed to be virtual
ly certain that the Executive Board
will refuse to sign any stipulation
calling off Its fight against t.ie Port
nlad Hallway, Light & Power Com
pany, and that the Board will carry
the case into the courts, or that It will
contest the case with all the energy at
Its command, should the company ap
peal to the courts, which It Is known
will be done If the controversy Is not
settled amicably. This Inference Is
drawn from a statement made by
Thomas Q. Greene, one of the mem
bers of the lighting committee of the
Executive Board, and a close adviser
to Mayor Lane.
"Do you not know, Mr. Huber." said
Mr. Greene, "that. If this matter Is
carried into court and the city's con
tention is upheld, that we will go
further back than last February?"
"I don't know, I'm sure, what you
rill do." replied Mr. Huber.
May Ttevlew Entire Contract.
"Well. we certainly will go clear
back to the tlmo this present con
tract was entered Into, and will seek
to collect for the deficiency of the
service, as we found It has existed
after our investigation," said Mr.
Greene.
The contention of the Executive
Board la that the city has received but
two-thirds the power called for in
the contract on all the arc lamps, and
the Executive Board, since February,
has deducted from the monthly bills
of the company one-third. The com
pany, through Its officers, holds that
toe contract has been fulfilled.
Although the Executive Board ad
vertised for bids for the city lighting
for three and five years, the company
put In only a bid for the five-year con
tract, and Ignored the other. The Item
of city lighting is a big one, and
grows more Important each year, as
the number of lamps is Increased. It
now costs the city about $103,000 a
year. When the present contract was
let there were only 800 arc lamps, now
there are 144a.

FRESH WATER KILLS FISH
Corrallis Express Messenger Ex
plains Mystery of Dead Herring.
ALBANY. Or- Sept 14. (Special.)
That the thousands of herring which
were strewn on the beach of the Pacific
Ocean near Yaqulna Bay recently were
not destroyed by any volcanic erup
tion in the ocean is Indicated by a log
ical solution of their death which is
offered by W. M. Toner, express mess
enger on the Corvalls & Eastern Rail
road and owner of the oyster beds and
crab-fishing plant on Yaquina Bay.
The herring enter Yaqulna Bay an
nually In large schools, Mr. Toner says,
and penetrate far up the Yaqulna
River. When they begin to get too
much fresh water they return to the
ocean. This year heavy sudden rains
fell when the herring were going up
stream In large schools and so much
fresh water overwhelmed the fish.
Mr. Toner verifies his theory by the
fact that people on the bay saw dead
herring floating out to the ocean from
up the river long before the tides
threw them out on the beach. If a
volcanic disturbance had caused the
death of the herring it would have
killed scores of other kinds pf fish.

atorial candidates and a majority of the
members of the Legislature should con
spire to overthrow the expressed will of
the people, that would be an act little
short of political Infamy. However. It Is
my Judgment that both candidates and
the members of the Legislature will stand
by the will of the people as expressed
at the polls.
"Nothing could do more Injury to Mr.
Snell, and likewise Pierce County, than
to have it known over the state that
Pierce County and her Senatorial candi

result of a fair contest."

REFUSES TO SELL
SITE FOR SCHOOL
Board of Education Rejects
Large Offer From Property-Owner.
DIFFICULTY OVER DESIGNS
Architects Who Entered the Compe
tition for Xew Building Threat
en to Bring the Matter
Into the Courts.
An offer of $5500 more than was paid
for the block bounded by Seventeenth,
Eighteenth, Davis and Couch streets for
a new High School site, was refused by
the Board of Education yesterday af
ternoon, and Clerk Allen was Instructed
to reply to Roger B. Sinnott, who
sought to purchase the property, saying
that the ground is not for sale "at
present." A petitiont signed by nine
prominent citizens owning property In
the vicinity of the block named, asking
that the Board reconsider its purpose to
construct a school building there, was
placed on file.
The Board of Education purchased
the block for $93,000 several weeks ago,
and that they had done so was un
known until some time later, when the
facts were published. Shortly there
after Judge George H. Williams, Cecil
H. Bauer and other equally prominent,
all having interests In the vicinity, en
tered a protest, saying that the pres
ence of a school building on the block
named would work great damage to
their property, and that there Is no
need for a change In the site of the
West Side High School. They also
argued that the gTOund purchased by
the Board of Education Is not well
adapted to the purpose for which It
was bought.
Property-Owners Object.
This feeling being very strong among
the property-owners in the vicinity. It
was decided to draw up a petition, and
to present it to the Board of Education.
This was done last week, and the peti
tion came up for consideration at yes
terday's meeting.
Attorney D. Soils Cohen was present
to represent Kable & Kable, local arch
itects, who submitted design No. II In
the recent competitive test for plans
for a new High School building-, to be
erected in Alblna In the near future.
Mr. Cohen, on behalf of his clients, said
that, If the Board of Education will
not rescind its former action and award
to Kable & Kable the first prise and
accept their design, they demand $12,600
due them, on the usual basis of 6 per
cent commission on the cost of the pro
posed building as drawn by them. This
matter was referred to the committee
on judiciary.
Disagreement Over Designs.
Kable & Kable Joined with several
other architects who submitted designs
for the proposed High School building
to be erected In Alblna, and all of them
declare that it was agreed that the
Board of Education would abide by the
decision of the Jury on award, to con
sist of Architect Somervelle, of Seattle.
Later, however, City Superintendent
Rlgler was added to the Jury, and it
has since developed that he dissented
from the report of Mr. Somervelle. The
latter recommended design No. II, by
Kable & Kable, but Mr. Rlgler chose
design No. 10. the plan submitted by
Architects Whitehouse & Honeyman.
Great dissatisfaction was at onoe
manifested among the local architects
whose designs were rejected, and led
by Ernst Kroner, they filed a formal
demand for the publication of the re
port of Architect Somervelle. The
Board of Education Ignored the demand
and still later the case was carried into
the Circuit CouTt on mandamus pro
ceedings. Last week the members of
the Board of Education released the re
port. Now some of the architects are
threatening suit for their fees.
PUBDIO SCHOOIvS ARE OPENED
More than Sixteen Thousand Pupils
Attend on Opening Day. -
From all sections of the city yester
day morning, there marched to the
public schools of Portland 16,680 pu
pils. The registration exceeded that
of the opening day of the Fall term of
1907 by 609. Including the East and
West Side high schools and the trades
school, there are 47 public school build
ings, all of which were scenes where
busy principals, teachers and children
congregated. After receiving their as
signments to classes and book lists,
the pupils hurried home, and will re
turn to their studies this morning pre
pared for work.
City Superintendent Rlgler stated
yesterday that. In his opinion, there
would have been a much larger show
ing on the opening day had It not been
for the lateness of the hop-picking sea
son. He said that many of the chil
dren are still In the hop-fields and It
may be fully a week before the regis
tration will show the strongest figures.
"Everything worked splendidly to
day," said Mr. Rlgler. "While there
was a gratifying gain In the number
attending on the first day of the term.
I believe the figures would have been
much larger had It not been for the
late hop season. Last year the hops
were much earlier, and I think that
accounts for the comparatively small
showing In some of the schools."
Trades School Important.
That the trades school, located In the
Atkinson building, will be a most at
tractive feature of Portland's educa
tional life, soems certain from the
fact that yesterday there were 90
pupils registered. This is regarded by
Principal Hamilton as a fine showing
for the opening day of the Institution.
In the Vernon- school, which was
opened for the first time, there was a
registration of $24. and at the new
Creston school building there were 140.
The figures, as compared with the reg
istration of la9t year, in some instances
show a decrease, but In each this Is
because of tho new buildings that
have been constructed and which were
opened for the first time yesterday.
The whole situation is far better than
last year, when some of the buildings
were crowded.
There was a gratifying registration
at the East Side High School, which
opened for the second school term of
Its history. The district which It
serves has built up so rapidly that
within two years more it will be neces
sary to have another high school
building on the East Side. This has
already been arranged for, the site be
ing in Alblna.

jured on East Third Street.
Falling: 20 feet and landing: on a
pile of rocks, Paine Seely, the 11-year-old
son of Mrs. M. Seely, of 209 Grand
avenue, narrowly escaped death yes
terday afternoon about 5 o'clock, while
walking on the trestle which bridges
the gulch at East Third street, between
East Morrison- and East Aider streets.
He sustained a broken arm. a severe
cut .over his left eye and serious
bruises to his back and legs.
After striking the rocks he arose and
essayed to walk, but, finding his arm
hanging limp and useless at his side,
he fainted, and lay unconscious until
people from the street climbed down
and rescued him. He was removed In
the Red Cross ambulance to the office
of Dr. Sproat on Grand avenue, where
his injuries were dressed and from
where he was conveyed to his home.

fell In time to draw .back and avoid
a similar accident.
NO COMBINE OF HOPMEN
Pipe Bream, Says Klabr Two
Dealers Are Bitter Enemies.
TACOMA, Wash., Sept. 14. (Special.)
The report of a combination of four big
hopdealers to boost the market Is denied
by Herman Kaufman, of Herman Klaber
& Co., who says:
"There Is absolutely nothing In this
story. The person who Invented It cer
tainly must have smoked a new kind of
tobacco, for the yarn is a pipe-dream.
"The amusing feature of the story Is
that the four persons mentioned are not
all on speaking terms with each other.
Horst and Klaber are on friendly terms,
but the other two do not recognize each
other when they pass on the street."
Although the hop market will not really
open for two weeks, when the samples
will reach the East, some buying has been
done. The first sale of fuggles this sea
son was at 6hi cents, and the last at 7
cents. Eight cents a pound has been
offered for two or three choice crops.
Body Not Ralph Eddy's.
MlXiWlATJKEB, Sept. 14. The body of
the unknown man which was found near
Saukvllle, and which was thought to have
been that of Ralph W. Eddy, turns out
to be the body of a farmer, who probably
committed suicide. Eddy is, or was, the
prominent young man who disappeared
on the eve of his wedding and for whom
an extensive search has been made for
several weeks.
