Improved Streets Needed. If the
Jefferson High School is completed and
occupied by February the students will
have to be transported In mud-boats.
There are no Improved streets leading
to or around this splendid building, and
none is in prospect of being improved
very soon. Efforts have been made to
improve Kerby, Sumner and Emerson
streets, but it cannot be done this year.
There is a disposition to hold off im
proving any of the streets in North
Alblna until after sswers are laid. The
City Engineer, who Is preparing plans
for the sewer system, says it will be
March before the contract can be let and
work started. It will take a year and
a half to comrtete the work. Prominent
residents insist that the Improvement ef
the streets about the high school building
ought, not to be held Iff for two or three
years, even if the sewers are not laid.
Road Taxes Stat in Milwaukie
Through the efforts of Mayor Streib the
entire sum, $1100. collected for road taxes
in Milwaukie has been secured for the
use of the Milwaukie road district. Of
this sum 60 per cent was allotted to the
district some time ago, but Mayor Streib
insisted that the. district ought to have
the whole amount collecced,, with the
result that the Clackamas County Court
allotted the remaining 40 per cent. City
Auditor Dowling said yesterday that the
money will be used to repair the streets
and bridges of the district. The securing
of the entire road money is considered a
victory for the flavor and city, as it set
tled the contention held in Milwaukie
that road taxes collected ought to be used
at home.

FAKER'S VICTIM MISSING
WITNESS IX BO'CO STEERING
GAME DISAPPEAHS.
Police Think Elmer Buren Has Been
Repaid Part of Losses Prose
cution Not Balked.
The mysterious disappearance of Elmer
Buren, the chief witness against Frank
Watson, accused of the larceny of $400
by the fake racing game, has caused the
police to suspect that Buren has been
reimbursed for part of his money and in
duced to refrain from testifying against
Watson. Buren could not be found when
Watson's case was called yesterday
morning In the Municipal Court. He had
been living at the St. Charles Hotel. At
this place It is not known where he is.
He had been released the day before on
$50 cash bail, having been detained as a
witness against Watson.
The swindle is an old-time one and
one which has been worked with great
frequency in this city during the past
few months. Buren. who Is a tourist
from Midas. New, was approached on the
street by a total stranger who struck
ap an acquaintance with- him apd these
two encountered a third man. This last
man told of a secret wire-tapping by
which he got information on the result
of the races before they were received In
the poolroom where the bets are taken.
Buren saw a bet or two made at fake
poolroom which ostensibly won and was
Induced to play himself. While he was
taking out his money. Watson reached
into Buren's pocketbook and taking out
$400 insisted that it go Into the fake
game. too.
Buren was notified that he had lost
the moment he had put up his money.
A gang of confidence men have been op
erating in the city for some weeks. None
of Watson's associates was appre
hended. When the complaining witness
did not appear In court. Deputy District
Attorney Hennessy signed an informa
tion making himself the complainant and
will press the charge against Watson.
Watsom the police say. is an associate
of Harvey Dale, who has an unsavory
reputation with the Portland police.

WOMAN ALLEGED VICTIM
E. R. Steen's Former "Salesman Con
firms Woman's Story That Em
ployer Beat Her Cruelly.
Arrest Is Result,
E. R- Steen, a sewing machine agent
who conducts a store at 383 East Morri
son street, was arraigned . before Judge
Bennett yesterday morning- in the Munici
pal Court and held to await the action
of the grand Jury on the charge of hav
ing assaulted with intent to kill Miss
Louisa Stoetz. of 153 Thirteenth street.
The assault took place in the rear room
of Steen's ' store on the evening of
Friday, October 22. Miss Stoetz was seri
ously hurt, the bones in her. lower Jaw
on both sides were broken and she re
ceived other serious injuries which con
fined her to the hospital for two weeks,
and at one time placed her in a critical
condition.
She was still weak and very nervous
when she appeared In the court room
yesterday morning, her head and Jaws
swathed in bandages. Several witnesses
were examined, most of them Steen's
employes, who seemingly tried to shield
their employer. Steen did not testify.
The story of the assault hinged upon
the fact that Miss Stotez, who had been
friendly with Steen. had lent him $4000
for the purpose of engaging in the sew
ing machine business, with the under
standing that marriage between them
wasP to follow, and that after a long
time, during which he had paid her
nothing, he repudiated the debt and de
fied her to prove that he owed her any
thing at all.
Miss Stoetz testified that when Steen
repudiated the alleged agreement, she
called him a cur, and that he retaliated
by raining blows upon heas she 6at in
a rocking chair. Throwing her to, the
floor, she said, he kicked her brutally
until a great crowd collected in front of
the store, when he threatened to kill her
If she called for help.
George Backum, a salesman for Steen,
said that he had found Steen beating
Miss Stoetz In an ' i .idescribably brutal
manner on the floor, and that when he
tried to pull Steen off from her and
cause him to desist. Steen had
turned on him and struck him repeatedly
and driven him out into the street. Mrs.
D. Green and Frank Tut f, other em
ployes of the store, plainly showed their
sympathy for Steen.
Since the trouble betweei Miss Stoetz
It has been shown that St sn made an
assignment of his business. Judge Ben
nett said that he thought the case one
of deplorable brutality.
YEON PLANS. SKYSCRAPER
Fifteen-Story Store and Office Build
ing Submitted to Contractors.
Plans have been received here by John
B. Yeon for a building which he is con
templating building on his property of &
quarter block at the northeast corner of
Fifth and Alder streets. The plans are
for a 15-story structure of steel and con
crete construction and the cost is esti
mated at .over 5500,000. Mr. Yeon stated
yesterday that there was nothing definite
about the erection of this building and
was averse to saying much about it
until he had fully made up his mind.
He has had the plans prepared and has
submitted them to the various contractors
in the city fori provisional bids, but has
explained to the contractors that there is
nothing sure about his building.
"I have not decided as yet," said Mr.
Yeon. "I may build and if several mat
ters still to be arranged can be settled I
will go ahead with'the plans, but I would
have to receive bids within the estimates
and there are other matters which would
have to be settled. I do not want to say
I am going to build until I am sure. The
tenants on the property hold no leases
and re merely renting from month to
month and if I decide to build I shall .be
able to start after 30 days' notice.
"If I build I shall erect a 15-story build
ing, with stores on the first floor and
offices on the upper 14 floors. Of course,
the building would be fireproof and the
plans would make it not only the largest,
but the finest building in the city. But
future developments will have to deter
mine whether or not I shall go ahead
with the plans. Rnfd Bros., of San Fran
cisco, are the architects. They designed
The Oregonian building here and many
great office building in San Francisco."
