Arguments Will Begin This After noon and Decision Slay Be Rendered Tomorrow. . Arguments involving the right of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company to operate trains on Fourth street, in spits of the city ordinance to prohibit it, will begin this afternoon, and the case will be submitted to Judge Bean of the Uni ted States Circuit Court or bis decision sometime tomorrow. . Attorneys for the road rested their case at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and the city's evidence will be completed by noon today. The Southern Pacific Company nas en deavored to show by the evidence pre sented in the two days the case -has been in court, that the right given the old Oregon Central Railroad Company, which, originally built the road, to operate its trains on Fourth street, was perpetual and Irrevocable; that the company has spent $160,000 in placing the road there, and that H Is not a detriment to the city. City Attorney Kavanaugh will attempt to refute these assertions. He will contend that the franchise granted the Oregon Central Railroad, January 6, 1869, was simply a permit that would exist subject only to the will of the people. It will be contended by the City Attorney that the operation of steam locomotives on the street is public nuisance, and as such the city has a right to put a stop to it. Whether the trains should be permitted to operate on Fourth street ie a ques tion that has long been a source of much, argument In Portland's City Council, but not until May 1. 1907, did this materialize into a law, which was not signed by the Mayor, and became effective a year and a half after it became valid. General Manager O'Brien, of the South ern Pacific lines in Oregon, was then ar rested for operating trains on the streets, and he obtained a temporary order from the United States Court, to prevent the city from making arrests on that charge. The present cases before Judge Bean is to determine if this temporary restraining order should be made permanent. SEVEN PERSONS INDICTED Grand Jury Does Good Day's Work in Various Cases.
