ASKS BIOS FOR
TAKING GARBAGE
City
Auditor to Advertise for.
Offers for 25-Year Ex
clusive Franchise.
MEASURE MAY -NOT PASS
Council Said Not to Faror Granting
An j- More Monopolies Senti
ment In Favor of Municipal
Garbage Plant Said to Exist.
City Auditor Barbur will advertise this
week for bids for collection and removal
cf the garbage all over Portland, a 25-year
exclusive franchise to be awarded to the
successful bidder. This was authorised by
the City Council last Wednesday, after
some debate. It was recommended by the
committer on health and police, composed
of Councilmen Concannon, Annand and
Wills.
The action authorizing the City Auditor
to advertise for bids was brought about
by an application from the Sanitary
Oarbage instruction Company, represent
ed by Attorney John A. Jeffrey. An ex
clusive 26-year franchise was sought, but
the members of the committee on health
and police decided to advertise for bids.
giving sn open opportunity to any who
may mlsh to put tn a bid. This was the
statement made by the members of the
committee at the last Council session,
when asked why they had sent in a set of
"guides" for bidders.
In the guides" for bidders, the Coun
cil htis asked that all who desire may
told for removing all garbage from the
business and ' residence sections, collec
tions to be msde from the business dis
trtcts every 24 hours and collections from
the residence districts to be made not less
than twice a week. The city is to guar
antee to the successful bidder the right to
enter any place of business or any resi
dence for the purpose of gathering gar
bare, according to the provisions of the
"guides" to bidders, so that every such
p. ace will be compelled to employ the
collectors of the successful bidders for
2d years, at whatever rates may be speci
fied In the contract with the company and
city.
There Is a suspicion In the minds of
some Oouncllmen and others who have
kept In touch with this matter that the
Council Intends to give some company an
exclusive 2&-year franchise for collection
and removal of garbage, and It has been
asserted by some that there Is but one
concern able to bid successfully. This
firm Is said to be the Sanitary Garbsg
Instruction Company, the company which
put tn the original application. Bach
bidder la to state the rates for collecting
garbage, and to specify the premium he
Is willing to pay to the city. All bids
may be rejected, according to the adver
tisement. That (he garbage proposition will fail
of passage by the Council, seems appar
ent at this time, as several members of
the Council are opposed to It for various
a son a It Is doubtful If any more 26
year grants will be given, and there Is
also much sentiment in favor of the mu-
n:ctpal collection and destruction of gar
bage at reasonable rates to all who wish
to patronize the system.

CONFER OF
BRIDGES
Committees From Push Clubs
to Meet Today.
WANT PLACE BEFORE VOTE
Think Before Bond Issue I Sub
mitted Location of Structure
Should Be Decided Question
May Be Submitted to People.
A conference of committees from all
the push clubs of North Alblna this
afternoon at 4 o'clock, at the Commercial
Club, meeting with the bridge committee
of the North Bast Side Improvement As
sociation, will undertake to settle the
location of the proposed bridge. If pos
sible, without resorting: to a voto. The
Multnomah Improvement Club, through
Its president, R. B. Metcalfe, and Its spe
cial committee, has a prop6sltlon to sub
mit the two locations proposed for this
bridge, the one at Broadway and I.ar
rabee streets and the other at Atblna
avenue and Hancock street, to a vote of
the people before the bond Issue Is sub
mitted, and the club agrees to abide by
the result of this vote. Today's confer
ence Is called to act on this proposition.
Another proposition also to be con
sidered Is to accept such location for
this bridge as the Council committee may
decide on after consultation with the
United Ststes Engineer, the Terminal
Company and the Port of Portland. Both
propositions were submitted at the meet
ing Friday night of the North Eaat Side
Improvement Association and referred to
the commission.
Modjeskl Report to Figure.
The report of Engineer Modjeskl also
will figure In the conclusions of the con
fe'renoe. It recommends two bridges, ona
of the bascule type at Broadway street,
which will cost approximately ei.50o.0fl0,
and a suspension bridge with a 1000-foot
span at Alblna avenue, costing something
over t3.000.000. The . engineer made his
recommendations for these types of
bridge, as he says, because they offer the
least obstruction to navigation.
Dr. I M. Davis, who represents the
Multnomah Club's side of the contro
versy, says:
"We are all agreed on two things.
First, we want a bridge, and second, that
a high bridge is not practicable. I see
no reason why a bascule bridge as pro-

posed at the Broadway-street location
cannot be built at Alblna avenue at even
less expense. The cost of approaches for
the Broadway-street bridge and the pur
chase of the "Y" block for the West Side
landing would eat up nearly one-half nf
the bond issue. I have been Informed by
good authority that the "T" block can
not he purchased for less than S44A.0M).
Besides, the bridge at Broadway street
would be a great obstruction to naviga
tion. ......
Obstruction to Navigation.
The water at that place is twice as
deep as at Alblna avenue, and I have
been informed that when pilots turn ships
in the harbor they bring them up toward
the railroad bridge because of this deep
water. The same Itind of a bridge can
be built at Alblna avenue with very little
expense for approaches."
Judge Munly, president of the North
Albina Improvement Association, con
tends that the final selection of the loca
tion rests with the United States En
gineer and that Port of Portland must
also be consulted. He hopes that every
club will be represented at the conference
today and that light may be shed on the
bridge situation by the members of the
committee from the association who thus
far have handled the bridge question.
Permit for Albina-A-fenue Bridge.
They have given much time and hard
work for the past 13 months and by
means of this conference Judge Munly
hopes to give the delegates information
which they do not have, and thus clear
far stood the strain and there
a way to an agreement which must be
reached If any bridge is built. By the
conference It is hoped to avoid a dis
agreement that might lead to no bridge
at all.
T. VV. Plttlnger says that there is al
ready a permit from the War Depart
ment for a brldee at Alblna avenue. Mr.
Plttlnger was one of the Commissioners
who built the Burnslde-street bridre. The
Commission was authorized to build two
bridges, one at Burnside street and the
other at Albina avenue, and JooO.OOO was
authorized for that purpose. Mr. Plttlnger
and some other members of the Commis
sion went to Washrigton and obtained
permission for the two bridges. The Burn-side-street
bridge was built, but It was
found there was not money enough for
the Alblna bridge. Mr. Pittinger says
that this permit for the Alblna-avenue
bridge should be on file in the office of
the City Auditor.

TWO STORIES OOflE
Work Progressing Rapidly on
Rosenblatt Hotel.
PLAN NOVEL SAMPLE ROOMS
Additional Story . to Be Arranged
Around Light Well to Display
Goods Building Will - Be
Five Floors In Height.
At the southwest corner of Alder and
Tenth streets the hotel building being
erected by Gus Rosenblatt has reached
the second story and Is being constructed
as rapidly as weather conditions will
permit. The new hotel is following plans
drawn at the architect's office of W. C
Knighton, and from the perspective
shown In a drawing reproduced in this
Issue of The Oregonlan it will be observed
that the building will be a notable ad
dition to recent first-class construction In
this city.
The building occupies 100x100 feet with
full basement and will be five stories In
height In the outside walls with an ad
ditional story surrounding the light-well,
but not extending to the outer walls of
the building. This story is to be fitted up
for use of traveling salesmen carrying
samples and will be so arranged that
goods may be displayed in one, two or
three rooms as desired, as sliding doors
are to be used between them. There will
be eight of these sample rooms.
One of the features of the ground floor
Is the lobby, located on the corner, which
will be 40x50 feet In dimension. Entrance
to the lobby will be from the Tenth
street side through a wide vestibule, and
there will be a private or ladies' entrance
opening directly Into the lobby from the
Alder-street front. The lobby has been
designed by the architect with a view to
making it one of the handsomest and
most convenient in the Pacific Northwest.
The most valuable space on the ground
floor is c'.evoted to thla purpose, which la
an innovation in hotel construction.
Leading off the lobby will be located
the office, reading-room and lavatories.
The main entrance opens Into a vestibule
and that In turn Into a hallway, where
will be placed the elevator landing and
a stairway.
There are to be two stores on the
Tenth-street side south of the entrance
and two on Alder street on the west end
of the building. The first store, next the
entrance, is so arranged that it may be
utilized for a cafe, in case the lessee so
desires, there being a space provided In
the rear for kitchen facilities. Over each
of the entrances will be ornamental cop
per marqueses, 'Entrance arches are to
be of marble and copper finish with heavy
hardwood doors.
The walls are of cream pressed brick
with glazed white terra cotta trimmings,
a belt course at the second story and
another at the windowsill line at the fifth
floor. The two street elevations are
being so built as to have four piers wtih
terra cotta bases and caps, the caps ter
minating at the fifth-story sill-course.
Windows on the two fronts are to be of
plate glass. Above the first floor each
story' will be arranged Into 26 rooms, all
served wtth hot and cold water. . There
will be seven suites on each floor with
prlvats baths, in addition to which there
will be four public taths. The corridors
are to be seven feet six Inches wide, and
the light well Is 17x68 open to the top
from the first story and on the western
wall.
The . general style of architecture and
arrangement of the Interior Is said by Mr.
Knighton to be different from anything
yet built In this part of the country. 'The
cost of the building Is now placed at
$110,000, but may exceed that figure before
finally completed.
BICYCLIST HIT BY CARS
A. B. Hood Severely Injured on
Morrison-Street Bridge.
A. B. Hood, of 438 Hood street, aged 53
yeare. while riding a bicycle on the Morrison-street
bridge about 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon, was caugrht between
cars traveling in opposite directions, and
so badly Injured that he had not re
gained consciousness at a late hour last
night.
Hood was riding across the bridge and
instead of taking the regular wagon
path, selected the passageway reserved
for streetcars and automobiles. As he
approached the east end of the bridge he
failed to notice a west-bound car ahead,
and before he could turn out, was
caught between it and an east-bound car
that came from the rear. He was
knocked off his wheel and severely
bruised.
One of the streetcars carried him to
the Good Samaritan Hospital. The pa
tient was reported last night as being in
a serious condition, although fatal results
are not feared. The attending physicians
hope that he will be on the road to re
covery this morning.

Cut Your Fuel Bill In Two
In an ordinary soft coal stove half of the coal arises In gas and
promptly goes up the chimney. When you remember that gas is Itself
fine fuel, bsing used In all the large cities for rookinjr, heating and light
ing, you realize how much Is saved If the gas doesn't escape, but is held
In the stove and burned.
COI.ES ORIGINAL HOT BLAST SAVES HALF THE FUEL.
This patented Hot Blast Draft doesn't work In leaky stoves, and that
Is one reason why Imitations are failures.
It really makes soft coal last as long and burn as nicely as hard coal.
This wonderful stove burns anything liard coal, soft coal, wood, com
bustible rubbish anything.

Added to
Lands Soon to Be
Suburban Townsltes
in Different Parts of Out
lying Districts of City.
Work had to be stopped on only two
or three foundations going in for new
buildings on account of the rains of the
past few days, and these had excavations
made for piers which filled with water.
Other buildings where walls are In pro
cess of construction were delayed In work
only at Intervals during heavy rainfall.
November promises to have more large
buildings going up than any November
since records have been kept. In addi'
tion to those started, plans for others are
In the hands of the Building Inspector for
examination and these will probably be
passed on In time to have construction
work begun early in the montn.
Before the end of the year there will be
several additional plats ready to put on
the market, two of these being in the

now being offered. In the older town-
sites agents report unusual activity for
the time of year. Every day transfers
of lots to prospective builders of dwel
lings appear in the records, and while
these do not greatly swell the totals they
do Indicate a contlniSation of the ex
pansion of the city, and In almost every
direction.
