OUT ITS SURPLUS
'Judge Wolverton Passes on
Bill of Exceptions in
Land-Grant Case.
SOME SUSTAINED, SOME NOT
More Time Granted by Court, Over
Objection of Counsel, for Filing
of Demurrer to Complaint To
Be Taken Vp In February.
The first preliminary move In the suit
of the Government against the Oreg-on
& California Railroad Company to recover
land valued at about W.GOO.tX. was made
in the United States Court yesterday,
when Judge Wolverton ruled on excep
tions by the defendant railroad company
to the bill of complaint filed by John I
Snyder demanding that the defendant
corporation be required to sell to him 160
acres of the granted tends at the price
of S2.50 an acre, the price stipulated in
the grant by which lands were acquired
originally by the railroad company.
The exceptions were sustained in part
and overruled in others. In announcing
hu decision. Judge Wolverton intimated
that it probably would be necessary to
make all of the Individual settlers who
had applied for the purchase of tract of
these lands, parties to the Government's
suit, in order that every phase of the con
troversy might be considered simultan
eously. Severals months ago Snyder filed suit in
the Federal Court demanding that the
fh-egon California Railroad Company
be forced to sell to him 160 acres of land
Included In Its grant for Ii.50 an acre.
Since then nearly 100 similar suits have
been Instituted. In addition to these,
probably iOO other individuals have filed
bills of Intervention. They also probably
will be made parties to the main suit and
the right of all parties to the controversy
will be determined at the same time.
Over the objection of B: D. Townsend,
special counsel representing the Govern
ment in the land grant suit. Judge Wol
verton yesterday granted the Union Trust
Company and S. T. Gage, trustee for the
stockholders. 30 days additional time to
tile a demurrer to the Government's com
plaint after the railroad company has
filed its objection. Mr. Townsend insisted
that both parties to the suit should be
ready to answer to the complaint at the
same time, but John M. Gearln, who
appeared for the Trust Company, urged
that the additional time was needed for
his clients to make a proper appearance.
It la expected that the general de
murrers of the defendant railroad and the
trust company will be submitted and ar
gued some time In February. Those de
murrers will Involve all of the principal
legal points In the case and on the de
cision of the court will hinge largely the
future of the case.
SHOWS HOW REALTY ADVANCES
Suit to Get Possession of Realty
Brings Out Big Increase.
An evidence of the extent to which
realty values have advanced in Portland
was furnished in the Federal Court yes
terday in connection with the suit of
I.ucy Scott Bower against Hartman Stein.
This litigation involved lots 2 and 3. block
ISO. Couch's Addition. In IXli this prop
erty was mortgaged for J15w). According
to the papers in the case it is now worth
Jjo.oort. and its increased value was sug
gested by the court as the basic reason
for an attempt to recover possession of
the property, which has since been fore
closed. In her complaint the plaintiff sought to
have cancelled and set aside the decree
of foreclosure and sale thereunder, alleg
ing that fraud had been practiced In dis
posing of the lots at Sheriff's sale. In
sustaining the defendant's demurrer to
plaintiff s complaint, the court held that
the procedure attending the foreclosure
and sale of the property had been entirely
regular and that the original owner of
the property was to be blamed for her
delinquency in not seeking to meet the
Interest charges or to liquidate the mort
gage and recover possession of the prop
erty prior to its sale after the mortgage
had been allowed to run for about ten
years. At the trial of the suit It had
been shown that the complainant had
been served with legal notice that the
mortgage was to be foreclosed and the
property sold, but at that time she took
no advantage of her rights under the law.

Alleging that the ordinance recently
enai-ted by the City Council of Eugene
prohibiting the sale of near-beer Is un
constitutional, attorneys for Charles F.

JtHlK Wolverton in the United .States
liMirt for a writ of habeas corpus. The

ing non-intoxicating malt liquors In viola
tion of the Kugene City ordinance. Being
convicted, "he was fined $-5. Refusing to

contended that the objectionable ordl
rance whs not only unreasonable but that
The Bugene City charter does not autho
rise the city to make it unlawful to pre
scribe a penalty for selling non-lntoxlcat-Ing
liquors. It was argued further that
the Legislature does not have the right to
confer such legislative powers on a City
Council while, it was averred, that pro
vision of the Eugene City charter relating
to the sale of auch beverages had been
annulled by the operation of the local
cptlon law.

TANGLE OVER FRANCHISES
COOdLi MAKES SLOW PROG
RESS DISCUSSING GRANTS.
Councilman Vaughn Sticks for Fran
chise to Packing Plant Separate
From Others Asked.
The City Council, at its adjourned
session yesterday afternoon, made slow
progress in the consideration of the nu
merous applications for franchises for ex
tensions and addiitlons to the lines of the
Portland Railway. Light & Power Com
pany. Two hours' time was consumed
going over a portion of one section of a
pruwoeed blanket franchise, and the
Coitil then adjourned to meet for fur
ther York on this matter at 2 P. M.
Thursday. Councilman Baker occupied
the chair during most of the session.
With but a brief exception, the subject
was discussed in committee of the whole.
yesterday's session on the franchise
projects showed that it is going to be a
very difficult task to handle this matter.
The attitude of the streetcar company
officials is that the Council should con
sider the entire batch of about 40 appli
cations one at a time, but that each
should be regarded as a part of the lot.
Councilman Vaughn, in a heated speech,
declared ' that, unless the company will
agree to consider the acceptance of a
franchise to the Swift packing plant on
the Peninsula separate and aoart from
the others, he will not vote for any
of the grants sought. iiany complaints
were voiced by residents from various
sections of the city over proposed
changes in lines and abandonment of
other portions of tracks.
A delegation from the Holladay Im
provement Association was present to
protest against the proposed abandon
ment of the lines on Halsey and East
Nineteenth streets, as they declared that
many had bought, homes in the district
with the understanding that the street
car lines were to be permanent. W. G.
McPherson. president of the W. G. Mc
pherson Company, protested against the
proposed abandonment of the line on
Twenty-first street, contemplated by the
company. He declared that it will work
a positive hardship upon the many firms
located in the North Portland district if
the changes under consideration by the
company are carried out. and asked the
Council to use its influence to keep the
line where it is. There were several pro
testa against the changes announced by
the streetcar company as to its lines on
Montgomery street and on Eleventh and
Thirteenth streets. All of these com
plaints will be considered next Thurs
day. The streetcar company was represent
ed bv Frederick V. Holman and Vice
President F. I. Fuller. During the dis
cussion Councilman Vaughn sought to se
cure the passage of a motion to take up
and consider the proposed line to the
packing-houses now being erected on the
Peninsula, but failed. He declared that
the officials of the company had said they
would not accept a franchise over any
streets to the plants, separate from the
remainder of the proposed extensions,
and Mr. Fuller finally admitted this to
be true. He said that the company be
lieves it should not be expected to build
that line alone, and that It should have
the consideration of all the proposed lines
together.

JUICY MELON IS SLICED
Facts Come Out at Hearing of Board
or Equalization When Railroad
Men Protest Against Assess- -ment
of $14,400,000.
Through its attorneys. Arthur C.
Spencer an,d James G. Wilson, together
with J. W. Morrow, tax and right-of-way
agent, the Oregon Railroad &
Navigation Company yesterday sub
mitted to the County Board of Equali
zation its pe'.ltion for a reduction of
the assessment of J14,400,00O against
Its money, notes an1 accounts.
County JuJge Webster, County Clerk
Fields, and County Assessor Sigler
comprise the Board of Equalization,
and heard the objections. Many in
teresting features were developed dur
ing the hearing, one of the most prom
inent of which was the fact that the
O. R. & N. declared dividends to the
this year on its capital stock of 135,
000.000. Chief Clerk Staver, of the auditing
department of the O. B- & N.. was the
principal witness. In the absence of
his chief he was called to the stand to
explain the methods of bookkeeping of
the big railroad company and many
other matters of interest to the Board
of Equalization.
Last year the O. R. & N. Company
-was assessed in the sum of $16,180,003
on money, notes and accounts. A pro
test was offered by the company and
the matter is now in the course of
litigation. This year Assessor Sigler
assessed the company on the same kind
of property in the sum of J14.400.000.
It was shewn during the hearing
yesterday that February 18 of this
year, at a meeting of the board of di
rectors of -the O. R. & N. dividends of
2 and 75 per cent, or a total dividend
of 77 per cent, was declared on the
preferred stock of the company. The
preferred stock totals 11,000,000, on
which, by the action of the board of
directors February 18, total dividends
of $8,477,000 were declared.
At the same time dividends were also
declared on the common stock of the
company. On the common stock, which
amounts to $24,000,000, dividends of 4
and 75 per cent, or a toal of 79 per
cent, were declared. The dividends on
this stock accordingly amounted to
$18,960,000.
The total dividends on the entire
capitalization of the company, $35,
000,000, amounted to $27,430,000. That
amount was declared to be due and
payable February 20.
At the hearing It was also shown
that the regular date of assessment by
the County Assessor is March 1.
It was contended by the O. R. & N.
attorneys that the stock in the O. R. &
N. is owned largely by the Union Pa
cific Railway Company. They argued
that last year the Union Pacific Com
pany owed the O. R. & N. Company
practically all the surplus on. which the
assessment of" $16,180,000 had been
made. This amount, it is contended, is
75 per cent of what, according to the
annual report to the Interstate Com
mission, was due from solvent com
panies and individuals.
Not only id it contended that nearly
all the stock of the O. R. & N. is owned
by the Union Pacific, but that the
Union Pacific borrowed of the O. R. &
N. Company between $25,000,000 and
$30,000,000. When the O. R. & N. de
clared the dividend of $27,000,000 it was
virtually a matter of bookkeeping, in
asmuch as tho Union Pacific owns
practically all the stock on which the
dividends were declared and reserved
practically the whele of the $27,000,000.
The Union Pacific then repaid to the O.
R. & N. the amount of its dividends
in Its loan. Consequently, according to
the contentions of the O. R. & N. at
torneys, the one wiped out the other.
The hearing consumed the entire af
ternoon. The company's petition was
taken under advisement by the Board
of Equalization.

QUARREL LEADS TO DEATH
San Francisco Lawyer Fatally

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 16. Hugh
O'Neill, an attorney, with offices in the
Pacific building, shot and eeriously
wounded Michael Fachtor, a retired hotel
man, on the street in front of the Wal
dorf saloon, on Market street, about 1:30
o'clock.' The two men had quarreled over
a business transaction. Fachtor was im
mediately taken to the Central Emer
gency Hospital. O'Neill Is in a cell In
the city prison.
Fachtor declared that O NeilL had de
frauded him in a real estate deal and
made a demand upon him for money
which he alleges was due him, when
he met the attorney in the entrance of
a building at 650 Market street. A
quarrel ensued, and Fachter, it is said,
made a move as if about to strike
O'Neill. The latter drew his revolver
and fired two shots. One struck Fach
tor in the Jaw, the other penetrated
the right, shoulder and came out of
the back. Neither wound will prove
fatal.
Attracted by the reports of O'Neill's
revolver, a large crowd quickly gath
ered. The attorney made no attempt
to escape.

UPWARD START
After Changing From Coffee to Po.tam.
Many a talented person is kept back
because of the interference of coffee
with the nourishment of the body.
This is especially so with those whose
nerves are very sensitive, as is often
the case with talented persons. There
Is a simple, easy way to get rid of
coffee evils and a Tenn. lady's experi
ence along these lines is worth consid
ering. She says:
"Almost from the beginning of the
use of coffee it hurt my stomach. By
the time I was fifteen I was almost a
nervous wreck, nerves all unstrung, no
strength to endure the most trivial
thing, either work or fun.
"There was scarcely anything I could
eat that would agree with me. The
little I aid at seemed to give me
more trouble than it was worth. I
finally quit coffee and drank hot water,
but there was so little food I could
digest I was literally starving; was so
weak I could not sit up long at a time.
"It was then a friend brought me a
hot cup of Postum. I drank part of it
and after an hour I felt as though I had
had something to eat felt strength
ened. That was about five years ago
and, after continuing Postum In place
of coffee and gradually getting strong
er, today I can eat and digest anything
I want, walk as much as I want. My
nerves are steady.
"I believe the first thing that did me
any good and gave me an upward start,
was Postum, and I use it altogether
now instead of coffee." "There's a
Reason."

the same reference was made of the Kel
laher petition.
In explanation o his introduction of the
petition for Belgian blocks, Mr. Kellaher
said that projects for paving with the
blocks are open to competition, but the
brick is not. as only the one kind of ma
terial can be used In the brick improve
ment. Mr. Kellaher is making a general
fight against all "patent" pavements, he
states, and is working to secure open
competition for all contractors, instead of
specifying such materials as can be fur
