FIGHT FOR TRAFFIC
North Bank Road New Element
. in Freight Situation.
REDUCES TIME FROM EAST
Warm Competition Between Hill and
Harriman Systems Is Res-ult.
Portland Brought Nearer Cit
ies of Inland Empire.
Warm competition between the Hill
and Harriman systems for freight
traffic from the East to Portland Is
promised as the result of building the
Korth Bank roa... It is promised that
the new road will bring Portland J4
hours nearer the Eastern shipper than
any former service. Record time on
freight shipments from tlie Eastern
terminals Is predicted and. in fact. Hill
officials promise they will trot freight
to Portland from New York in 12 days
by use of the new line down the north
bank of the Columbia Kiver.
And that Isn't all. The new line, it
Is said, will bring Portland Into closer
touch with the interior cities of the
Pacific Northwest than ever before.
There will be an immediate advantage
in the reduction of running time that
brings the great Inland Empire into
much closer touch with the jobbers of
this city.
The Northern Pacific will handle all
business to an from all points east of
Pasco, except points on the Central
Washington branch, by way of the
Spokane. Portland & Seattle Railway
and the Columbia River canyon to and
from Portland. This Includes all mer
chandise and carload traffic. The par
ticular object in tal.ing this route is
in not wishing to haul freight by way
of Tacoma and to expedite the move
ment by confining it to one route.
General Freight and Passenger
Agent H. M. Adams, of the Spokane,
Portland & Seattle Railway, held a
conference with V. H. Fogarty. assist
ant general freight agent for the
Northern Pacific, to adjust this new
routing of Northern Pacific business.
"There will be a marked reduction
in running time from Portland to the
Inland Empire," said Mr. Forgarty.
"There will be an approximate reduc
tion of 24 hours from Portland to Spo
kane. Pendleton. Athena. Walla Walla
and Lewiston against all competition.
One of the great benefits to tlie Port
land jobbers Is to be able to make
quick deliveries In a territory formerly
served from Puget Sound.
"On the transcontinental, westbound
business, there will be a correspond
ingly large gain In the running time
from Chicago and the Missouri River
territory. This business will be han
dled by the new route to Portland at
least 24 hours ahead of the schedule
of any other line."
Tlie new arrangement of routing
Northern Pacific cars to and from
Portland will become effective at once.
The modern facilities in the North
Bank road's new freight terminals for
handling traffic will aid in the quick
dispatch of cars and their prompt un
loading. Hill officials are confident
they will be able to get a very large
freight business In this territory be
cause they expect to cut down the
running time materially.
TRANSFER IS .NOT VXCSUAL
Railroader Diseusses Shift on Van
derbilt Lines.
The promotion of Charles Daly, vice
president of tlie Vanderbilt lines, for
merly In charge of passenger traffic of
tlie system, to the control of freight traf
fic as well, has cau-sed considerable talk
among railroad circles in Portland. When
his promotion was announced, the opin
ion was expressed that tlie advancement
of a passenger official to have charge
of freight as well was remarkable and
very unusual.
"Thle to not the case." said a promi
nent official of the Harriman lines yes
terday. "There are any number of prom
inent railroaders who have advanced from
the passenger department of the railroads
to better and more responsible positions.
B. W. Wlnchell. president of the Rock
Island system, who was for some time
aevistant general passenger agent of the
Memphis Route, with offices at Kansas
City, is an example. George T. Nichol
son, vice-president of the Sinta Fe lines.
In charge of freight and passenger traf
fic, was for years a general passenger
agent. D. McNIchol. vii'erpresident and
general manager of the Canadian Pacific
Railway, was also formerly a general
passenger agent. D. D. Caldwell, vice
president, in charge of traffic of the
Lackawanna, was formerly assistant gen
eral passenger agent for the Missouri Pa
cific, and was afterward chairman of tlie
Western Passenger Association. W. W.
Finley. president of the Southern Rail
way, was formerly general passenger
agent of a road In Texas. W. S. New
man, president of the New York Central,
and O. G. Murray, president of the Bal
timore & Ohio, were both freight and
passenger traffic men."
TWO TRAINS TO BE ADDED
Northern Pacific Plans Increase in
Service to Pngrct Sound.
Two new trains to Puget Sound from
Portland over the Northern Pacific will
probably be put In service shortly after
January 1. One through train will be put
on from Portland to Vancouver, B. C,
leaving this city dally at 10 A. M., and
wm ie a 10 or 12-hour train, covering
the 310 miles to the British Columbia city
within that time, besides making tlie
stops at the Puget Sound cities. It Is
probable b!fo that the business will war
rant another train from Portland to Seat
tle and Tacoma.
This added service would eive five trains
a day in each direction between Portland
and Puget Pound. With the two trains
d.iily over the Spokane, Portland & Seat
tle Railway, this will give seven trains
daily between Portland and Vancouver,
Wash., giving good interurban service be
tween the two cities.
"The last train out of Portland will
leave at 11:45 P. M.." said A. D. Charlton,
assistant general passenger agent for the
Northern Pacific, "permitting Vancouver,
Wash., people to stay in the city to at
tend the theaters if they desire, and still
get home tlie same night. We expect this
service will prove very popular.
"The new trains will not go into service
until the new Northern Pacific tracks
down the north bank of the Oblumbia
from Vancouver to Kalama are In ser
vice. This line Is In pretty good condition,
however, and it is likely that we may get
orders almost any day directing the
abandonment of the ferry at Kalama and
tlie use of these tracks In connection with
the new Spokane. Portland & Seattle
bridges across tlie Willamette and Colum
bia Rivers.
"All trains will stop at St. John, and
we expect considerable business from that
place. The use of the new bridges by
Northern Pacific trains will not be de
layed longer than January 1. In any
event, and It is likely the change will be
made earlier. Probably one hour will be
saved in the trip to Puget Sound by the
new route."
EXCURSION TO APPLE SHOW
Portland Business Men Will Visit
v Pair at Spokane.
The first excursion to be run over the
new North Bank road will be operated to
Spokane for the National Apple Show
that will be held there December 7-12.
The excursion has been so arranged that
Portland business men need not lose
much time from their offices, the special
train leaving this city Friday night, De
cember 11. at 5:35 o'clock, and reaching
Spokane at 6:35 the following morning.
The return will be made tlie following
Sunday, reaching this city at 5:30 P. M.
The excursion will give an entire day
and night at Spokane, and the return trip
will be made by daylight down the new
North Bank road. Handsome new equip
ment will be used in the special excur
sion train.
Traffic Situation Discussed.
M. Hannaford. third vice-president of
the Northern Pacific, in charge of traffic,
left Portland yesterday In company with
H. C. Nutt. general manager of the West
ern division of the Northern Pacific, after
a conference here of two days with local
Hill officials. . New traffic conditions
arising by tlie opening of tlie new North
Bank Road were considered, and the fu
ture traffic channels on business bound
for Portland over the allied Hill lines
were mapped out.
Will Consider New Rates.
Consideration will be given tlie ad
vanced transcontinental rates by tlie
transportation committee of the Chamber
of Commerce this afternoon. A meeting
has been called for the purpose and it Is
expected that an outline of the advanced
tariffs will be ready to place before the
committee. Just what action will be
taken to oppose the advanced schedule
proposed to be put In effect January 1
by the railroads will be decided at this
meeting-
11. W. Baxter Is Promoted.
Portland friends of R. W. Baxter, for
merly division superintendent of the Le
high Valley Railroad, will be glad to
learn of his promotion to the position of
superintendent of transportation of that
system. Mr. Baxter was general agent
of the Pacific division of the Union Pa
cific when the O. R. & N. was a part
of it. When the two lines were sep
arated, he remained at Portland as gen
eral agent of the traffic department.
Railroad Orfices Are Closed.
General offices of the railroads enter
ing Portland will be closed all day to
day notices, having been posted at
Harriman headquarters in the Wells
Fargo building, as well as in the quarters
of the new North Bank road in the Com
mercial Club building. The ticket offices
on railroad row, by agreement, promised
to close also, so their employes may en
Joy the holiday to the fullest extent.
Will Help Rose Festival.
Publicity for the Portland Rose Festi
val will result from the action of the
Harriman lines in placing the announce
ments of next year's show In all the
folders and other advertising matter is
sued by the different lines. The Oregon
Short Line Is the latest Harriman com
pany to Issue new folders in which the
Rose Festival is prominently mentioned.

How I Cure
Without
Thousands of weak and debili
tated men are paying half they earn
to doctors or medical fakers for poi
sonous dope that wrecks the nerves
and vitals.
Are you one of these men? Don't
you know that you can't get
strength from poi3on? Drugs don't
restore strength,
because they con
tain nothing that
builds strength.
You know that
strength comes
from nourishment.
All you get out of
drugs is poison.
Electricity is the
nourishment you
need. It is food to
the nerves. It puts
life and vigor into
every organ, en
abling each part
to do its work as
Nat ure intended.
The reason any
organ breaks
down or becomes weak is because it
lacl:s motive power just like an en
gine without steam. This motive
power is electricity. My method is to
restore this force wherever lacking,
and strength will take the place of
weakness. My Electro-Vigor satu
rates your nerves with a constant
stream of electric energy. The
nerves absorb and carry It to every i
part of the body, where tt Dunas up
vitality and strength and removes
the c.iuse of the disease.
Electro-Vi.ror is an electric body
battery, applied while you sleep. Its
Influence is soothing and Invigorat
ing. Electro-Vigor requires very
little attention, for it never needs
charging. There Is no trouble or
inconvenience of any kind attached
to the use of this appliance.
INJUNCTION ASKED
Inman-Poulsen Firm Would '
Keep Streets Closed.
f.
STRONG FIGHT IS OPENED
Vigorous Opposition to Be Made to
Proposed Opening or Thorough
fares Through Mill Property '
of Plaintiffs on East Side.
In an effort to thwart City Attorney
Kavanaugh in his attempt to compel
the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company
to vacate the streets running through
Its mill property on the East Side
waterfront, the corporation, has filed
suit In the Circuit Court praying for
an injunction restraining the city and
Its officials from prosecuting in the
Municipal Court. Judge Gantenbein is
sued an order yesterday that the city,
through its attorney, appear in court
Friday morning and show cause why
the injunction should not be issued.
It Is set forth In the complaint that
when James B. Stephens filed a plat of
the Stephens Addition, on June 8. 1869,
the premises contained a slough 40 feet
deep. Meander lines were used to indi
cate It on the plat, and dots showed
such portions as might afterward be
dedicated as streets if the owners so
desired. The streets were not dedicat
ed, and the city, until within the last
few months, It is asserted, never
claimed any portion of the premises as
streets or highways, nor were street
grades established.
In 18S9 Johan Poulsen. representing
the mill company. Interviewed the May
or, to inform him that the company
contemplated erecting a sawmill on the
premises, and to ask that If the city
claimed any interest to the property in
the way of public streets, it should be
made known. According to the com
pany's assertion, the Mayor toH Mr.
Poulsen that if the Superintendent of
Streets ga'e his consent the City of
Portland never would claim any portion
of the premises as streets. The plant
was erected, and the slough filled with
1.000.000 cubic yards of material at a
cost of $250,000.
In November, 1896, the plant was de
troyed by fire, and the corporation set
about erecting the largest sawmill In
the world, having a dally output of
500.000 feet The lumber Is piled over
the portion of the premises not occu
pied by buildings. It Is urged that the
city has stood by for more than 17
years, and has seen these improvements
going on, without making any protest
Six complaints were filed in the Muni
cipal Court Tuesday by Mr. Kavanaugh,
which charge the corporation with vio
lation of ordinance 7130 by erecting
buildings on public streets. These
streets are East Sherman, First, Grant,
Second and Caruthers. Mr. Kavanaugh
has received no instructions, written
or otherwise, from the City Council to
institute proceedings, it is alleged, and
Is, therefore, acting without authority.
The mill property Is bounded as fol
lows: Beginning at the Intersection of
the Southern Pacific track and Grand
avenue, thence to the south line of
block 46, t stenhens Addition: then west
to the high-water mark of the Willam

"I want to have the Mayor arrested
in my capacity as a private citizen,"
explained Mr. Shepherd. "The casn
has nothing whatever to do with the
Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company; but
why has the Mayor of the city any
more right to block the public streets
than a private corporation? I want to
see if he has. The Mayor is Jumping
onto every one else for blocking tlie
streets, now let's see where he
stands. I propose to have him arrest
ed, and will mandamus the City Attor
ney if he refuses me a complaint."
The blockading of the foot of East
Washington street consists of an engine-house
of the Fire Department,
built there several years ago. It is an
auxiliary to the fire-boat station and
is located close to the wharf.
When Mayor Lane was apprised of th
fact that Mr. Shepherd had applied for
a complaint to the City Attorney, he
said he had heard a rumor to that ef
fect, but knew nothing definite about
it. and appeared to give it little atten
tion. Webfoot Oil Blacking Keeps reet ary.
