Munly W believe that Frank Klernan u playlna- the iteel bridge asalnst the Broadway bridge. becaue of property Interest. TVs know that the O. R- N. must se cure permission from the city before it can build the steel bridge, and we do not Intend to allow this until the opposition of Sir. Klernan and the railroad la withdrawn from the Broadway bridge project. Frank Klernan If Judge Munly or anyone else says that I claim to or do represent the railroad company," It Is an Infamous He. for maltlcous pur poses, and I don't care how strong that is put. I will withdraw my suit against the Broadway bridge when the courts say so. Mayor Simon 1 believe the Broad way bridge project will proceed in good order, and that no serious con sequences will ensue as a result of the litigation. : t Threatening: to stop the proposed con struction of the O. R. & X. Co.'s new steel bridge across the Willamette Kiver unless all opposition to the projected Broadway high bridge is withdrawn at once, a committee from the North East Side Improvement Association, headed by 31. G. Munly, its president, paid a visit to Mayor Simon yesterday afternoon to enlist him In the fight. While declaring himself willing to assist in every way to facilitate construction of the Broad way span, the Mayor refused to promise to awing his official Influence with the club in the effort to force the railroad of ficials to "call off" the Injunction suit against the Broadway project, filed by Frank Kiernan. Charges Are Slatle. Judge Munly and the members of the committee, composed of D. L. Povey and State Senator Beach, accompanied by W. , O. McPhereon and Councilman Menefee, charged that Mr. Kiernan purports to represent the O. R. & N. Co., and that he is handling the case for that corpora tion, actuated by his own personal mo tives, to "kill" the Broadway bridge proj ect. Acquisition of property in the vicin ; lty of the east approach to the proposed : new steel bridge, was said by the commlt ' tee to be at the base of Mr. Klernan's activity. Mr. Klernan. when Informed of the charges made by Judge Munly and mem bers of the committee to the Mayor, un- t hesitatingly declared that "it is a dellb- : erate falsehood, a malicious lie, and I don't care how strong you put it." Judge Munly and the members of the . committee were very much wrought up when they entered the Mayor's office, and were at first more Insistent than when they left, as the Mayor feels that there is no very serious obstacle ahead in tho - Broadway project, although he is anxious to proceed with the work as rapidly as possible. He advised the employment of . .special counsel to assist the City Attorney In defending the suits that have been filed, and he said that, following this course, he believed everything will turn out all right. , Judge Munly told the Mayor that the North East Side Improvement Associa tion and the people of the entire North . East Side are "going to have the Broad way bridge, or there will be no new steel bridge." "We know that the steel bridge is not as good as built simply because the War Department said that It is all right," de clared Judge Munly. "We know that the . O. R. & N. officials must seek permission , from the city before they can proceed to build that bridge, and we want the Mayor ; and Council to refuse this permission un til the corporation calls oft Mr. Kler nan's Injunction suit." Case Slay Go to People. "And If the city authorities refuse to iielp us, we Intend to take the case to the people," added Mr. Povey. Mayor Simon explained to the commit tee that, as the executive for all of the people of the city. It would not be at all possible for him to exert his official In fluence to hold up construction of the pro posed steel bridge, and that he would not do so in any event. He volunteered to go with the committee at the proper time to seek of the presiding Circuit, Judge an arly decision in the Klernan injunction suit, and said he believed, in view of all the circumstances, the court would gladly grant this. "I will say." stated Mr. Kiernan; "that I will call off the injunction suit against the Broadway bridge when the court tells me I am wrong. It is untrue that I have large property interests affected by the uteel bridge, and I neither did nor could I Influence the railroad company In select ing the site for the new structure." The suit of Kiernan against the city to test the- validity of the bonds Is pending in the Circuit Court. It is the belief of Mayor Simon that this suit should be vig orously contested and hurried, in order that a decision may be had, and it is In this manner that he offered to assist the committee. In an effort to secure assistance from the O. R, A N. Co. officials, the committee today will call upon General Manager O'Brien, of the Harriman lines, and lay their case before him. .

OLD GUARD AT REUNION COMPANY G RECALLS SERVICE IX CHINESE RIOTS. Noteworthy Gathering; Is Reminis cent of Days 'When. Members Were Young and Gay. With 'song, jest and reminiscence, Portland's old Company G of the Oregon National Guard last night became a vet eran association. Occupying an unique niche in the history of the Beaver State, this body of militia of the days of yore stands today as an exanjple to the studi ous youth of the state. Organized 23 years ago by the then young men of the city, the organization was mustered Into the state defensive forces as Company G. For many years that company held annual promenades and served Ices to its women friends. Under the leadership of Captain R. E. Davis, it was twice called upon for active sen-ice. first in the Chi nese riots of 1885 and 11 years later the fisheries dispute, which called the com pany to Astoria. During those years Company G was largely a social organization, but when the Spanish War broke out In 1895 it became a part of the Second Oregon Volunteers. The Second Oregon was first in Guam, first in the Philippines and first in Manila. Company G at that time, be came F Company. Many of its members have since become eminent in the pro fessions. One is superintendent of a railroad, one has been Attorney-General of the state, one Is a Judge of the Cir cuit Court of Multnomah County, one has been a Judge of the Municipal Court, one Is a member of a leading mercantile house in this city, four are cashiers of banks in Portland, and in the State of Washington many of the old boys of the khaki uniform are forging ahead in so cial, mercantile and political lines. Last night 12 members now living in Wash ington answered rollcall. Company G ought to have a historian, according to several members. Last night Toastmaster C. W. Idleman said he could recall nothing of its lstory except the times he was. court-martialed for non-attendance. An honored guest of the reunion was Captain L. C. ' Farrar. who organized the companv in 1883. Another was Judge C. V. Gantenbeln. Both saw active serv ice The feature of the banquet was the singing of old songs by Harry W. Hogue and Ralph K. Lee. In the early days of 18S6, the company gave a minstrel show in the old Casino Theater, and at that time those soloists sang respectively. "The Fisherman and His Chee-lld" and "Green Faces." They had to repeat those songs last night. It was decided by the 70 members or the old guard present to hold an annual reunion, and committees will soon be appointed to carry that purpose into ef fect. mayoresses help BETTER CAR .SERVICE SHOULD BE GIVEN, HE SAYS. Holladay - Irvlngton Improvement Association Secures Aid of City Executive.

He assured the members of the committee that he would assist them in every way possible to secure better car service for their district. "I am In sympathy with the objects for which your committee was appoint ed." said Mayor Simon. "You represent a large and Important district and you are entitled to betted car service.

Largest CHAUFFEUR TRIED FOR AUTO'S THEFT Robertson Also to Be Charged With Causing Death of "Dolly" Ferrara. CIVIL CASE, IS DEFENSE Court Decjines to Take View That Offense Is Only Trespass, for Which Owner, V. M. Ladd, Can Sue. John Robertson, who was driving WlU iarn M. Ladd's automobile after midnight Sunday morning, September 13. when it overturned at the gravel pit near the Twelve-Mile House, and killed "Dolly Ferrera, was placed on trial before a Jury in Judge Cleland's department of the Circuit Court yesterday afternoon. The charge in this case is grand larceny, for the theft of the automobile and 14 gal lons of gasoline, but a charge of man slaughter for Mrs. Ferrera's death has also been laid against Robertson. Deputy District Attorney Vreeland and "Attorneys John Stevenson and George J. Perkins began the selection of the jury yesterday morning. This was completed soon after 3 o'clock. Seven witnesses were examined, and the closing arguments of the attorneys were nearly completed before adjournment last night. Judge Cle land will instruct the Jury this morning, and an early verdict is looked for. During the trial Robertson's aged moth er, dressed in black, sat in the court room. Defense Calls It Trespass. A motlpn by Attorney Perkins, when the state had completed Its testimony, that the court direct the Jury to return a verdict for the defendant because the state had shown no criminal intent on Robertson's part, was denied. "This car was taken under the direct supervision of Mr. Ladd's agent. Harry Holland," said Perkins, "and the taking amounts to nothing more than trespass, for which Mr. Ladd may sue in the civil court for damages." Deputy Vreeland was on his feet In an instant. "If, the contention of counsel is correct," he said; "a property-owner must hotfoot around the country looking for his property. No man has a right to take another's property without permis sion. The criminal Intent is a question for the Jury to pass upon." Anna and Eva Meyer, two of the three sisters who went on tie "joy ride," told of being picked up by Robertson and Hol land at Ninth and Everett streets. Eva Meyer was asked by Deputy Vreeland whether or not Robertson had any drinks at the Twelve-Mile House, but the ques tion was ruled out by the Judge. "Whether Robertson drank or did not drink has nothing to do with the theft of this automobile," said the Judge, "but it may be competent in the other case." Ladd Refused Permission. Holland testified that he asked Mr. Ladd It he might take the car out that night, arid that Mr. Ladd replied he might need it, and that if he did it would be embarrassing for him to find it gone. "I told Mr. Ladd I would pay him for the gasoline I used, and for the repairs to the machine," said Holland. "I told him I wanted to make the matter right as soon, as I could. I didn't care much about going that night, but Dolly wanted to go." The witness said that on previous oc casions he had taken the car out without consulting Mr. Ladd, that he never before was forbidden positively to use it, Robertson was grilled by Deputy Vree land, who wanted to know whether his own sense of propriety wouldn't tell him a driver had no right to take a car out for his own benefit. . "If the owner objects to letting a car go out, the night washer has a right to refuse to let It go out," said Robertson. In answer to another question the wit ness said it was the custom for drivers to take machines out for "joy rides." Attorney Stevenson, in his argument urged that - the taking of the machine amounted to a breach of trust only, but not to larceny. "Robertson did no wrong," he said. "He only accepted Holland's invl. tation to take a spin." "It made me nervous to think of the narrow escape this man Thompson had," continued Stevenson, ironically. "I sup pose if poor Dolly Ferrera were alive sha would be here, too, charged with lar ceny. If this is larceny, any man ac cepting a ride in a buggy belonging to someone else is guilty of larceny, any bum stealing a ride on a freight train is guilty of stealing the train, -and any stowaway on a vessel is guilty of theft of the vessel." The Jury is: J. D. Nelr. G. Sieber, Frank S. New, Fred H. Kramer. W. S. McElwee, A. C. Pool, John Mackenzie, H. P. Kimball. J. C. McNiven, John Mc Grath, Robert Kennedy and Rudolph Markworth. ACTO MAX SUES. RAILWAY Portland Man Wants $1300 for Damage to Machine. Rudolph Becker, manager of the Becker Automobile Livery Company, filed suit In the Circuit Court yesterday morning against the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company to recover $1300 damages on account of an accident at the corner of Mississippi avenue and'Skidmore streets last month. Becker says that he was driving a 'Seeing Portland" automobile loaded with passengers slowly down Skldmore street, when a Lower Albina car suddenly dashed upon him, damaging the automo bile. The accident took place about S o'clock on the afternoon of October 7. Becker says no bell or whistle was sounded, al though the car was going at a reckless rate of speed. Notes of the Courts.

Bullet Wounds. An Italian shooting affray in the sa loon of C. Battaglla, 230 Salmon street, in which the features were a sensational chase through the streets after- the man who had done the shooting and a search by the police with lanterns for nearly three hours in the .dark corners under the docks along the waterfront, occurred yesterday afternoon. Constanzo Raffaele, an Italian laborer 24 years old, was cap tured by Detectives Price and Carpenter and Patrolman Ellis under the warehouse of BIssinger & Company, corner of Sal mon and Front streets, after about 15 police officers had been engaged in the hunt for a long time. Pasquale Seraflno, the victim of the affair, IS in St. Vincent's Hospital with two wounds in his abodmen, which are reported to be of superficial character. Raffaele is being held' in the City Jail awaiting a hearing in the Municipal Court. . Both men were laborers and had been good friends. The version told by the prisoner is that Serafino induced him to go to The Dalles for a job and having got there and found no work, pawned Raffaele's ring for money, for their meals. On returning to Portland they met in the lunchroom in the rear of the saloon. Upon demanding his ring of Serafino, the latter refused to return it and after some words, threatened Raffaele with a knife, upon which he drew, a revolver and fired. This story is contradicted by a woman working in the kitchen of the lunchroom, who says that, the men got into a quarrel over money spent for drinks. Brave Hospital Nurse Flees From Echo SI1I Kla;ht Watches" Rudely Bro ken at St. Vincent's Hospital When Lone "Drunk" "Marks Time. EARLY in the dim watches of yester day morning a nurse paced her rounds at St. Vincent's Hospital. Not a shrill, noisy bell disturbed the silence, whereat the nurse was greatly- pleased. EVen the fever patients had not to be sponged, and the man with a sore" toe who was always howling for a hypo dermic to put him to sleep was actually snoring. Suddenly there came in the dimly light ed hall" an echo of the nurse's footsteps. There could be no question that someone was following. .And he, she or it must be in the hall. It was almost with a shudder that the nurse thought of "it," for no one could be seen along the long corridor, yet every step she took was echoed. Was this some more of the Harps boy disturbances? she asked herself with a shudder. She had been reading of the wonders that youngster was reputed to have performed and a kind of uncanny thrill went down her backbone. "I must be brave," she said, half to herself. Then she took another couple of paces. . Tramp, tramp, came the un earthly echo. That was Just enough. The young nurse's nerve broke and she fled.. Re turning with another nurse, the echo was on a vacation and she plucked up cour age again. - - Alone, she heard the echo again, and Just as she was on the verge of collapse happened along a house doctor, who un dertook to investigate the strange "echo." In the corner of the passage he found an old. man drunk who had somehow got into the hospital prior to the closing of the outer door. He was an ex soldler, and hearing the occasional tramp, had "believed he had to "mark time." Each time he was just a moment late and this was why the strange, per verse "echo" nearly frightened the un lucky night nurse out of the wits she possessed. GOOD THINGS IN PORTLAND MARKETS BY LILIAN1 TINGLE. THE markets all have a festive air that says: "Thanksgiving is coming," although the real holiday dis play Is not yet ready. The turkey question Is -an important one, but re ports as to probable Thanksgiving; prices are decidedly contradictory. In the meantime first-grade birds are a trifle" more costly than they were last week, 30 cents a pound being: the price now obtained. Ducks, as well as turkeys, are much in evidence at present. Tame ducks are somewhat higher in price and cost about 30 cents a pound. Tou may have canvasback ducks, for $1.25', teal for 50 cents, widgepn for 75 cents, and mallards for 1 each. Chickens remain about the same price as last week. There are fine capons to be had at 30 cents a pound. Ordinary geese cost about 20 cents a' pound, while the choice "stall fed" kind bring 25 cents. In the meat market there is a hol iday display of "choice cuts" of all kinds, and many "special lines" (or should one say "links") of savory sausage, and the select "interior parts" that have been the delight of epicures . v r. 1 Shoes for wet weather should have your most careful consideration.

LION CLOTHIERS 166-170 Third St. from the days of. the Roman Emperors. There is a fairly-good supply of flsh at present, but a greater variety, includ ing Eastern flsh. Is expected for. next week. Sturgeon is practically out of the market now but shad is new this week. Mussels are in again at 10 cents a pound. Shrimps are scarcer, and cost 20 cents a nound. Salmon roe sells at 10 'cents a pound and frog-legs at 50 cents a dozen. The list also includes striped bass at 26 cents, halibut, salmon, catfish, sole and smelt at about 15 cents; torn-cod and black cod at ,12 cents, flounder and herring, 10 cents a pound. Vegetables make quite an impressive appearance at present, and most of them are excellent in quality. Celery and celerlac are particularly good. A rather uncommon entree recently encountered is creamed oysters, served in neatly-made cups of delicately cooked celeriac instead of the usual patty or timbale cases. Endive is excellent Just now and makes an ideal dinner salad, especially with duck. Oyster plant is good and so is spinach. Turnips, squash and onions put themselves forward as "the real originals" in Thanksgiving vegetables, while peas, artichokes, eggplant and Brussels sprouts pose as their rivals. New leeks and curly kale offer an appropriate choice for people of West or North British an ccstry. New arrivals In the fruit department are the- little tangerine oranges that are so good for "flaming cocktails" or "fiery salads." They cost about 30 cents a dozen. The new season's dried fruits are prominently displayed-figs, prunes, dates and raisins being particularly attractive. Raisins are comparatively cheap this year, something to be thankful for in the face of other rising prices. Nuts are a neces sity for the holidays and are, shown in all the usual varieties at 15. to 25 cents a pound. Oregon chestnuts cost 20 cents and Eastern chestnuts 40 cents a pound. Apples are the most attractive of fruits at this time. They cost J1.60 to $3.50 a box according to kind, or 15 to 40 cents a dozen. There are a few pears, peaches and grapes still to be had. Cranberries cost 12 to 15 cents and huckleberries 20 cents a quart. Pomegranates, pine apples and large Japanese persimmons also Rive variety to the fruit stands, and may appear advantageously in artist c holiday "center pieces," or the fruit salads.. ILL ofIeverWhappy GOOD SAMARITAN' HOSPITAL HAS UXCSUAL PATIENT. Little Vernon Parks, Homeless and Almost Friendless, Finds He ' Is Not Forgotten. Little Vernon Parks is happy. That would not mean so much IT young Vernon was not ill In bed with a severe attack of typhoid fer, able to eat but little, in pain and helpless, but Just because these troubles are as sailing him he is happier than ever before. . . The reason is that Vernon is home less and almost friendjess. For some little time he has been earning a liv ing as dishwasher in a small diet kitchen attached to one of the , wards of the Good Samaritan Hospital and although this ward is one of the oldest and poorest in the building, it has been Vernon's idea of heaven to be a patient in it. ... So when Vernon succumbed to an at tack of typhoid, he was sent to one of the bright new wards. Not until then did the nurses know that Vernon had no home, that no one cared whether he lived or died and that he had not a single living relative, o far as he knew. ."No one cares one little b't for me," he told thorn faintly. Now there's a young millionaire, debonnaire and handsome, in a room not far from Vernon's ward, and, al though that young millionaire is well irVated. he Is positively neglected be- EDWARDS FIVE FLAVORS ' 25c and 50c PACKAGES HIGHEST GRADE IMPORTED ASK YOUR GROCER CEYLON 1 W-w SWKST HMDDS CDHWJiT pobtund ORetoii.
