DESCHUTES PEACE
IS
T
Second Suit Against Oregon
Trunk May Be Heard in
Early September.
COMPROMISE IS DISDAINED
Controversy Xow bears Fight-to-Fin-Ish
Aspect Both Sides Prepare
for Xext Round Cotton Sar
castic, O'Brien Confident.
Round two of the legal battle between
the Hill and the Harriman forces over
conflicting -rights of way up the
Deschutes River will not be called prob
ably for two weeks. It was learned yes
terday that an effort will be made by
the opposing- Interests to have the sec
ond suit brought by the Oregon Trunk
against the Deschutes Railroad set for
a hearing in the United States Court
early In September. This suit involves
the first 40 miles extending southerly up
the Deschutes from its confluence with
the Columbia. In It the Oregon Trunk
asks the. court to adjudicate the rights
of the two companies.
That the contest between the two roads
will be continued in the courts1 is as
sured from the fact that the Harriman
people are standing pat and are seek
ing no compromise with the enemy. The
promoters of the Deschutes Railroad
have not made any overtures looking to
a settlement, and during the hearing of
the injunction suit, decided Tuesday by
Judge Bean, they clearly manifested no
intention of considering such a proposal,
even If tendered by the Hill road. The
controversy has assumed the aspect of
a fight to the finish.
Twelve Miles Involved.
"There are no further developments on
the Deschutes, with the exception that
we are continuing our operations at such
points as we are not inhibited by the
pending Injunction, and which, by the
way, applies only to about 12 miles."
said General Manager O'Brien yesterday.
"We are getting ready for the next round
in the controversy, which, I suppose, will
consist of a hearing of the second suit
which has been brought by the Oregon
Trunk. But I am not worrying very
much over the situation, so far as we
are concerned, and our rights on the
lower river. I attended the circus last
night, which, by the way. Is a good one,
and afterwards had a good night's rest."
"Now that the Oregon Trunk people
have learned that they have a right of
way 60 miles in length and 200 feet wide
on the Upper Deschutes." said "W. W.
Cotton, general counsel for the Harriman
lines, "I sincerely hope they are proceed
ing actively with the construction work
they professed such great anxiety to be
gin. There are about 145 miles where
their right of way does not conflict with
us. and so far as I know there is noth
ing to prevent them from building a rail
road over that mileage, anyway."
Harriman People Satisfied.
"While neither Mr. O'Brien nor Mr. Cot
ton would further discuss the situation
or their plans, it Is known that the Har
riman people are satisfied that they have
the better of the Oregon Trunk people,
so far as the most accessible right of
way is concerned for the first 40 miles
up the river. It is this part of the pro
jected railroad route which is involved
in the suit of the Oregon Trunk now
pending.
In the argument on the injunction
suit which has been decided, it devel
oped in the discuslon of the contro
versy by the Hill attorneys, that when
the surveyors for the Oregon Trunk
went to the mouth of the Deschutes
River to begin surveying in the early
Spring of 1906, they found Harriman
surveyors in the field locating a sur
vey on the east side of that stream
and covering the first 40 miles. This
admission will be relied on to a large
extent by the Harriman people to es
tablish their priority of right In exe
cuting a practical survey on the lower
river, notwithstanding that maps sub
mitted by both companies were ap
proved contemporaneously by the Sec
retary of the Interior.
Most Follow Map.
One thing is certain In the pending
struggle, and that Is the watchful Har
riman agents will see to it that in
their operations the Oregon Trunk peo
ple. In the construction of their road
on the upper 60 miles, adhere strictly
to the line of survey indicated in their
map which, has been approved and sus
tained by the court. When Judge Bean
rendered his decision in the Federal
Court Tuesday, Attorney Cotton, rep
resenting the Oeschutes Railroad,
made the statement that the Hill road
in its operations was deviating from
the prescribed route Indicated in its
map of survey. He asked the court
to make an order requiring the rival
road to follow strictly the route it had
mapped out, and which had been recog
nized by the court.
Second Injunction, Maybe.
Keplylng, Judge Bean assured the
Harriman attorney, that the decision
he had rendered contemplated such an
observance by the Oregon Trunk. The
Judge further said he would at any
time b prepared to issue an injunction
against the Oregon Trunk upon the
showing by the Harriman attorneys
that the rival road was attempting to
carry on operations at any other point
than that covered by its map of sur
vey. Mr. Cotton asserted at the time
that he would submit such a showing
before the day was over, but the evi
dence has not"yet been produced. Mr.
Cotton said .yesterday that he had been
too busy on other matters to make the
Investigation which might establish the
fact that the other road was appro
priating to itself rights not covered
by Its approved map of survey.
FOREST GROVE IKE RUSHED
United Railways Experts to Complete
Road to Glencoe in 90 Days.
"We hare 600 men working on our
Forest Grove line between Burlington
and Glencoe. and expect within 90 days
to extend our present service to the
latter point, a distance of six miles
beyond Burlington." said Lloyd B.
TVlckersham. chief engineer of the
United Railways yesterday. "This will
leave only seven miles of road to con
struct until our line will reach Forest
Grove."
Workmen In the employ of this com
pany are Installing a "T" on First
street, connecting with its Stark-street
line for the more convenient organi
zation of Its trains. Two new passen
ger coaches are expected daily, and
these will be placed In service Imme
diately to assist In handling the in
creased traffic on this road, which Is
now in operation to Burlington, a dis
tance of 14 miles. Additional freight
equipment is also expected some time
I this Fall.
The United Railways has removed
0
REIGN
the light steel rail equipment of its
line on Pettygrove street, south of
Twenty-second street, and is using the
material elsewhere on Its road. Mr.
Wlckeraham explains that this is a
temporary move only, and does not
mean the abandonment of that part
of the street over which the company
holds a franchise. The removal of the
lighter rails, according to Mr. Wlck
ersham. Is only preliminary to the re
laying of the track with approved
heavy steel, required on all streets
ready to be improved with hard sur
face pavement, including South Petty
grove street.
ELXIOTT OFF, POINT IX DOUBT
Disagreement on I.ewiston-Clear-water
Branch Exists.
Howard Elliott, president of the North
ern Pacific, left Portland last night on
his return to St. Paul without having
settled matters of disagreement between
the O. R. & N. and the Northern Pa
cific relative to through service over the
Lewiston-Clearwater branch. It was an
nounced at the Harriman offices that,
while the details of a satisfactory ad
justment of this matter have been al
most reached, another conference will be
necessary before the contract can be of
ficially placed In operation. Just when
that conference will e held is not
known.
Representatives of neither the Hill nor
the Harriman systems yesterday would
discuss the Joint-trackage agreement be
tween the Union Pacific and the North
ern Pacific by which Harriman is to
enter Puget Sound over the Hill road
from Portland. The papers concerning
this compact await the signatures of the
head officials of the two roads, and when
this has been done it will be up to the
Union Pacific to Inaugurate its service.
President Elliott, accompanied by Gen
eral Freight and Passenger Agent Adams
and General Superintendent Russell, of
the Spokane, Portland & Seattle, and Su
perintendent McGuire. of the Astoria &
Columbia River Railroad, passed yester
day In a trip over the Astoria & Co
lumbia road to Astoria. Last night
Mr. Elliott left over the Northern Pa
cific for Yacolt. He will start East this
morning over the North Barfk via Spokane.
LINTS BUILDS FROM BOTH EXDS
Xatron-KIamath Extension la Being
Rushed to Completion.
Work is being rushed on both ends of
the Natron-Klamath extension and a
large number of workmen have been
sent by the Southern Pacific officials to
form the construction gangs. Contracts
have been let for. work on both ends.
The contract for building 35 miles In a
northerly direction from Klamath has
been let to the firm of Erlckson &
Peterson, while that for 25 miles, ex
tending south from Natron, was let to
the Utah Construction Company. The
tunnel work in the Natron extension has
been sublet by the Utah Construction
Company.
General Manager J. P. O'Brien, of the
Southern Pacific, states that as soon as
work is nearing completion on these two
branches tne contracts for the remaining
100 miles, lying between the two ap
proaching ends, will also be let. The
two lines now under construction will
be of little value to the railroad com
pany until they are connected, as their
worth lies In the fact that they are parts
of a connecting link. Manager O'Brien
states that the connection will be made
as soon as possible by putting on large
forces of men and rushing the work to
a rapid completion.
Railroad Personals.
H. C. Bonn. Pacific Coast passenger
agent for the Nickel Plate Road, with
headquarters at Seattle, was In Port-'
land yesterday.
G L. Blaisdell, general agent for the
Great Northern at Billings, Mont., was
In Portland yesterday and called at the
Hill offices.
COURTHOUSE DAYS FEW
TODAY AX WILL RAISE HAVOC
WITH EAST WIXG.
Contract Is Let for Demolition and
Foundation Judge and
Others to Move.
The first stroke of the ax and ham
mer in tearing away a part of the east
wing of the old Courthouse will be'heard
today. The County Commissioners
awarded to Knut G. Lundstrom yester
day morning the contract for excavating
and laying the foundation for the east
wing of the new building for $9000. The
contractor will cut down the trees on
the Fourth-street side of the present
structure, tear away the fence and walk,
and proceed to dig away the earth. He
Is to complete the work within two
months. It was expected that he would
have the lumber for bracing the old
building on hand yesterday afternoon,
but he was delayed.
Measurements -were being taken yes
terday afternoon to see if what is left
of Judge Cleland's courtroom after the
side Is torn off will be large enough to
house the law library. If not, a tem
porary building on the county property
on the Fifth-street side of the old build
ing will be erected. The rooms now
taken up by the library will be fitted
up for Judge Cleland. , "S,
Auditor Brandes and Deputy Sheriff
Martin, of the Tax Department, were
notified yesterday that they would have
to move at once. Mr. Martin will occupy
the rooms across the hall from his pres
ent quarters, and perhaps a part of the
Janitors' room and County Surveyor's
office. Mr. Brandes may be crowded
into a part of County Clerk Fields' office
in case no other place Is found for him.
Besides Lundstrom's bid the following
were submitted: Northwest Bridge
Works, J14.750; W. B. Steele. $11,368;
United Engineering Company. $10,798.
The contract for the steel has already
been let, but that for the walls of the
new structure has not yet been adver
tised. Francis Clarno, owning a marble
quarry on the Alaska coast, has offered
the material free, but the Commission
ers will be obliged' to figure the cost
of quarrying and shipping in considering
the offer.

CALLS WIFE SHREW
Fish Merchant Laschi Offers
Many Grounds for Divorce.
WOMAN DENIES CHARGES
In Answer to His Complaint, Mrs.
Laschi Accuses Him of Unkind
and Violent Acts and Declares
Fortune Due to Her Saving.
E. C. Laschi,' a partner in the firm of
Covach & Co. charges in a, divorce suit
filed yesterday that Mrs. Emily M.
Laschi threw a platter of steak at him
before he arose in the morning, tried to
stab him with a knife, poked him in
the face with her fist on numerous oc
casions, locked him out at night so he
was obliged to enter through a window,
used Intoxicants to excess, neglected her
household duties, and was found one day
in June, 1907. sitting upon the lap of H.
Eckenberger, hugging and kissing him.
Laschi avers that his wife packed his
clothing into a trunk, on June 1 lastand
sent it to his place of business. It was
the day after he went home and was
obliged to do the burglar "stunt" to get
into his own house.
But this was not all. Laschi says his
wife frequently remained out until 2 and
3 o'clock in the morning, and sometimes
did not return home until the next day.
"When he asked her. where she had been,
he says she would fly into a rage, and
once drew a revolver on him while he
was trying fo prevent her from burning
his clothing.
The Laschis were married in 1901. A
year later the wife is alleged to have
commenced the use of liquor. But the
woman, in an affidavit, denies all the
charges made by her husband. She says
she has Just left the Good Samaritan
Hospital, where she has been under the
doctor's care, and that she has been left
destitute by her husband. She has al
ways earned her own spending money,
she asserts, although her husband Is
worth $50,000 in real estate and owns a
half or two-thirds interest In the fish
company at 275 First street. She says
last year the receipts of the business
were more than $100,000. Her husband's
money is the result of her saving, she
asserts, as he was not worth more than
$2500 when they married.
Mrs. Laschi bemoans her husband's
failure to go -out with her evenings, al
leging that when she asked him to spend
the evening with her she was met with
the retort, "I wouldn't be seen with a
dirty, fat slob like you." He was fre
quently drunk, she says, and once set
upon her with his fists so that she was
obliged to go to the bureau drawer for
the revolver. She explains her action ill
sending him his wearing apparel by say
ing that he called her up on the tele
phone at 614 East Third street, and told
her she could have the furniture, but to
send him his things. "My husband loves
money more than anything else In this
world, and Is unreasonably Jealous," says
Mrs. Laschi.
Minnie Jodon has filed a divorce suit
against Charles B. Jodon, alleging cruel
ty. They married June 16, 1906. at Oregon
City. She wants her former name,
Turney.

Atlanta, Ga.
ton. Wash., July 6. 19(18. and remained
absent until apprehended by the civil au
thorities, of Seattle, July 9. was criti
cised severely by Brigadier-General
Maus.
The court-martial found Simons guilty
of absence without leave and sentenced
hlni to pay $10 of hie pay and reimburse
the United States the sum of $50. paid
for his apprehension and delivers". In
speaking of the case Brigadier-General
Maus caused to be printed in the general
orders:
"In the foregoing casa, Edgar H.
Simons was charged with desertion, the
offense being properly alleged in the
specifications. The court found the ac
cused not guilty of the specifications,
'but guilty of absence without leave."
The form In which the winding is speci
fied is Irregular and wrong. In finding
the accused not guilty of the specifica
tions as a. whole, the charge also falls.
The name, rank, company and regiment
of the accused, the duration of the ab
sence and the place of commission of
the offense are all omitted.
"It is inconceivable to believe that an
Intelligent president and Judge-advocate
of a court could submit such a record.
On account of the absence of the mem
bers of thi court en route to the Phil
ippine Islands, it is impracticable to re
turn the record for revision. Such neg
ligence and carelessness in a more im
portant case might be a serious detri
ment to the service. The findings and
sentence are disapproved. Private Simons
will be released from confinement and
restored to duty with his company. By
command of Brigadier-General Maus."
OWNERS TO RAISE TUG
UNDERWRITERS PAY STIPULAT
ED SU3I OX DAXIEL KERX.
Delivery of Rock to Columbia River
Jetty Xot Retarded Progress
Is Made on Work.
According to the terms of a signed
agreement between the underwriters
and the Columbia Contract Company,
owners of the sunken tug Daniel Kern,
the latter firm will accept a stipulated
amount for insurance and will under
take to float the wreck , themselves.
Work on the raising of the tug will
begin as soon as proper gear can be
obtained and barges sent to the scene
of the accident.
The Daniel Kern was rammed by the
steamship Geo. W. Elder and sunk the
morning of August 18 at a point off the
Waterford light. She went down in 20
minutes and settled on a bed of cement
gravel. She is in good Bhape and no
difficulty is anticipated in the raising
of the craft.
Rock deliveries to the Jetty have not
been interrupted by the loss of the
tug Daniel Kern. With the exception
of one day. that Immediately following
the wreck, deliveries of stone have
been normal. The steamer Hercules
and the tug Samson have been em
ployed in the work.
According to recent reports made by
the United States Engineers, 550,000
tons of rock will be delivered at the
Fort Stevens dock before the end of the
season. The dally deliveries now
amount to about 3000 tons. To com
plete the Jetty to the end of the present
false work will require 380,000 tons of
rock. This additional amount has been
asked for.
An addition of 4000 feet was recent
ly authorized to complete the project.
By the end of the present season the
work will be well toward completion.
False work for the additional extension
will be placed next Spring. When fin
ished the Jetty will be a few feet short
of seven and a quarter miles from the
starting point. The exact distance, ac
cording to the official measurements, is
38,078 feet. .
According to the latest survey of the
United States Engineers, the water is
gradually deepening on the Columbia
River bar, due to the scouring effect
of the Jetty. With the daily addition
of rock and the extension of the false
work a steady deepening of the chan
nel can be expected.
Body of Mate Fldler Is Recovered.
Owners of the steamer M. F. Hender
son were advised of the finding of the
body of G. Fldler, mate of the craft who
was lost overboard from the vessel Mon
day night, at a point half a mile below
the scene of the accident. The funeral
of the dead official was held at Kelso
yesterday afternoon. Fldler went over
board while lowering the fenders on the
Henderson. He was 23 years of age and
had worked up from deckboy.

The study of medicine is as broad as
life and as complex as Nature. It is there
fore impossible for any individual to master
the treatment of all human ills. The man
who attempts to do so is able to cure only
the most simple aliments. The ordinary
physician is like the man who attempts to
master every branch of mechanics, from
watchmaking to shipbuilding. Such a man
becomes neither a good watchmaker nor a
successful shipbuilder. The general medi
cal practitioner knows as much about one
disease as he does about another and he
has no intimate knowledge of any. The cures
he performs when he is fortunate enough
to cure are usually purely accidental. The
patient gets well, not beauae of the phy-

I AM A SPECIALIST IN MEN'S AILMENTS.
My practice is confined whollv to the ailments of men, and the fact
that 1 invariably cure every case that I accept for treatment PROVES
that my methods are correct. Indeed, I have for twenty-five years
made a specialty of men's ailments and have so closely studied them
tnat I am able to meet every phase and condition of each Individual
case, and to effect a permanent cure in a very short time, I am never
for a moment in doubt as to my course. I know Just WHAT to do and
HOW to do it to obtain satisfactory RESULTS. This explains why
my practice has grown to be by far the largest in the western part of
America.
So confident am I that I can effect a thorough and LASTIKTG CURB
in each case that I accept for treatment, that I will give a W ritten and
Binding GUARANTEE TO CURE YOU, AND YOU NEED NOT PAY ME
A DOLLAR UNTIL YOU ARE WELL.
Bear in mind that I could not afford to do this if I did not KNOW
that my treatment would not fall. I am the only doctor who dares to
make such a proposition. Under no circumstance's do I ever take cases
for treatment that are doubtful. Henoe, If I accept your case for treat
ment you may absolutely rely upon it that I will cure you.
MY METHODS ARE ORIGINAL.
My methods are entirely original with me, and are the result of
many years of special studv and experience. Instead of filling my pa
tients up with powerful drugs and stimulants, as do other specialists, I
apply soothing, healing and absorbent medicines DIRECTLY to the
DISEASED REGION, and thus aid Nature in overcoming the trouble. The
best that human skill can do is to ASSIST NATURE. It is Nature that
performs the cures. Powerful drugs taken through the stomach do not
rare. They merely set up a new disturbance in th system, which. lor i
time, diverts the energies from the old disease to the new attack, yms
process la invariably attended with a reaction, and in eonsequenoe leaves
the patient in a worse condition than before treatment. Another method
employed by another class of physicians is to dose the sufferer with
tonics, which exhilarate the patient so that he actually believes himself
Improving under such treatment. But after a very short time these
stimulant medicines cease producing the desired effect, when the dis
ease gains a new and firmer grip upon the patient.
HOW I CURE.
My method of treatment overcomes inflammation and congestion by
aiding the tissues of the diseased region to throw off the poisonous
secretions and the deadly toxins caused by disease. Some of these
toxins are more poisonous than the virus of the rattlesnake a fang.
Thousands of the cases of sudden death which occur with alarming
frequency in every city in the land, are directly due to toxic poison, al
though such cases are usually pronounced "heart failure or heart dis
ease. Mv treatment completely eliminates every trace of disease and
accumulated poisons from the system, and thus allows Nature to pertect
a COMPLETE CURE.
DO NOT BE DECEIVED.
Mv methods have revolutionised tne treatment of aiimonta peculiar
to men, and consequently altered former medical theories. Imitators
of my svstem of practice have sprung up everywhere. A pronounced
success in any field of human endeavor begets Imitators. Following
the Genuine, there always come the Counterfeit. These imitators of
mine Insist that thev cure by means similar to those I employ bucn
statements are uttered with a base i'ltent to deceive. The facts are
that NO OTHER PHYSICIAN ANYWHERE TREATS MEN'S AILMENTS
BY MY METHODS. My treatment Is the ORIGINAL and ONLY GEN
UINE Direct-Method Treatment for the Diseases of Men.
MY MODERN and up-to-date methods effect a certain and speedy
cure of CONTRACTED AILMENTS, SPECIFIC BLOOD POISON, NERV
OUS DEBILITY, PROSTATIC TROUBLES, and all reflex ailments.
