Renewed Conflict Threatened
at Mouth of Canyon.
RIVAL GANGS SWAP WATER
Peace Reigns for Time In Deschutes
Canyon, but Workmen Are Too
Close Together to Avoid
Future Trouble.
BT R. G. CALLVERT.
GRAS3 VALLEY. Or., Aug. 3. (Staff
Correspondence.) The courts were again
resorted to today In the railway war over
right of way in the Deschutes canyon,
near this place, when the Harriman road
secured an Injunction restraining the Ore
gon Trunk Line from engaging in work
on about seven mites of grade now under
construction. The wagon road was open
all day. and ten four-mule teams sent
out by Twohy Bros, were unmolested in
reaching the canyon.
.According to Attorney Charles A.
Carey, of Portland, representing Porter
Bros., who reached Grass Valley today,
thsre will be no further disregard of the
court's orders, no matter how far from
valid Porter Bros." counsel may deem
them. The controversy over rights on
tiie wagon road and in the canyon will
be threshed out In the courts.
Conflict Is Threatened.
1 From the vlclnty of Shaniko, however,
come reports of Impending conflicts be
tween the two railway forces. Both sides
have been rushing men in there every
day. and each demands risrhts that the
otier will not concede. The Harrrmai;'
road has acquired what Is knomi as the
Dean Smith ranch, occupying strategic
positions in the approaches to the canvon.
It Is reported here today that one of
the Porter Bros." outfits has forced Its
, way on the Dean branch, but so far as
known here there has been no violence.
Porter Brcs. now have their camps in
that vicinity, and Twohy Bros, has seven
strung along from mile post "5 of their
survey to mile post 81 Two more Porter
gangs are moving in and are expected
to establish camps today. It is under
stood here that each side has about 350
men now employed in that locality.
Porter on Scene In Person.
Johnson Porter arrived in Grass Val
ley this afternoon In company with At
torney Carey, and was personally served,
with the original complaint and lestraln
Ing order In the new proceeding which
will test the rights of the two railroads
In the canyon near here.
"1 came here on purpose that they
might serve me wjth any papers they
nad." said Mr. Porter. "I am not go
ing to evade service In any way."
Mr. Porter also gave his version of the
difficulties in this locality.
'The reason we closed the wagon road."
he said, "was because when I first came
here ahead of my teams I was Informed
by the Harriman people that we could
not go down to the river over their road
unless we forced our way. I thought
It a pretty good way of using force to
buy the ranch and cut off their wagon
road. The other road has had a big ad
vantage over us. also, by having a
month's start and by shipping over the
railroad. We wanted to offset that ad
vantage, and I think we did It."
Boast Brought on Trouble. -
"It was our Intention to open the wa
gon road last Saturday, but they boast
ed about how they were going to send
their teams through the next day. and
we kept the road closed Just for the
fun of seeing their teams turn back.
"Yesterday we sent a messenger from
. The Dalles with Instructions to our men
to open the gates. Ves. we expect to con
test the Injunctions In the courts; that
Is the proper way to settle the matter.
TVs believe we will win, but I don't know
that we shall lock the gates again.
That will depend on whether they try
to shut us off the wagon road down the
canyon-
"A good deal has been said about I
our not putting In camps at points where I
there were no contests. We had to as- I
semble our outfits and get them on the i
ground Quickly in order to hold our j
rights. We did not dare trust the rail
road to get our stuff in. so freighted (
from The Dalles by wagons. It was
natural that we should direct our first
effort to points where . the oTuer road
might try to shut us out.
To Avoid Heavy Grade.
"As to the mouth of the Deschutes,
there is a dam site there 160 teeet high
which we don't want to climb over. The
Harriman road on the other side of the
river Is doing this, but we desire our
road to maintain a uniform grade, and
that question will be decided by the
courts. We are not building a turkey
track up the river.
"We are now moving several camps
Into the canyon about eight miles above j
Fherar's Bridge, and have let subcon- ;
tracts for this work to Copenhagen Bros,
for a distance of i or 10 miles. There Is
no conflict there.
"We expect to use the railroad for
shipment of our supplies and equipment

SOLDIERS NOT MOB THEN
Judge Morasky Makes Ruling on
Days of San Francisco Fire.
SAN FRANCISCO, Ang. 3. In sustain
ing a demurrer to a damage In the Su
perior Court today, Superior Judge Frank
G. Morasky held that the soldiers who
destroyed stores of liquor while San
Francisco was burning, in April, 1908,
were not a mob in the legal sense of the
word, and that the. city was, therefore,
not liable to a claim for $1074.
Suit for that sum was brought by Con
rad Huber. a saloonkeeper, who charged
that his supply of liquor was confiscated
or otherwise disposed of by the soldiery.
Another action, involving a smaller
amount, was decided lfl the same way,
and the opinion will have the effect of
quashing dozens of damage suits brought
by sajoonmen.

PRISONER LOSES CONFIDENCE
Dr. Flint Declares Thaw Is
Hopeless Paranoiac.
HIRSCH SAYS DEGENERATE
Dr. Baker, Third Expert, Is Sure
Prisoner Is Still Not In Condi
tion to Be Given Freedom
From Asylum.
WHITE PLAINS, N. Y.. Aug. 3. Three
alienists united in the Supreme Court to
day to make it unpleasant for Harry K.
Thaw, who demands release from the
Matteawan asylum as a mentally normal
man. '
All three testified that he is insane, and
when Thaw took the stand briefly, after
some disconcerting testimony, he was
plainly ruffled and nervous, but Mr.
Jerome dismissed him after a few com
paratively unimportant questions.
Of the alienists who testified Dr. Flint,
Dr. William Hlrsch and Dr. Amos T.
Baker the last named gava testimony
of the most importance. He is acting
superintendent of Matteawan, and lip
pears as a witness without compensa
tion. Justice Mills called attention to
this fact, and took a hand in question
ing him. Dr. Baker said that in his
opinion Thaw is now insane, and is a
dangerous person to be at large.
Thaw Is Recalled. -
Shortly after this : declaration Mr.
Jerome quickly called Thaw to , the
stand. He was pale and apparently
shaken.. The District Attorney put m
rather incoherent notes written by the
prisoner in evidence and asked him to
explain them, i After parries bark and
forth -and laborious explanations by
Thaw as to the meaning of certain
writings, he said:
"I want you to know, Mr. Jerome, that
many of these notes you call suggestions
were written at the request of my law
yers." "Do you mean to sit there and tell
us," said Mr. Jerome, "who observed you
in both homicld'e trials, that you did
not believe you knew more about the
case than your lawyers?"
Prisoner Not Confident.
"I do," quickly replied Thaw.
"You were nice and docile all the
time?".
"I think I behaved myself."
"Never discharged any lawyers?"
"Oh, yes; I discharged some lawyers."
"And yet you did not interfere at
all?"
"Only when I thought It was abso
lutely necessary."
"Then you did offer some suggesr
tions. I take it?" said the District At
torney sarcastically. .
"Oh. yes; some,", was the reply. "
Dr. Austin Flint described a paranoiac
as a person dominated by certain de
