PLANS ARE RUSHED Engineer Modjeski to Hurry Bridge Specifications. SIMON MUCH ENCOURAGED Major Mclntloc Says He Will Recom mend v 250-Foot Draw, and Otherwise Expressed Him self Friendly to Project. Mayor Simon yesterday received from Consulting Engineer Modjeski, at Chi cago, a reply to the Mayor's telegram of last Saturday, asking that the plans for the proposed high in'idge at Broad way street be hurried.-, Mr. Modjeski acknowledged rwelpt of the message, and replied that he will rush the plans, bs requeBted. They will include a 250 foot draw, as required by Major Mclndoe, chief of the local corps of the United States Engineers. 'I consider all obstacles removed, since the interview with Major Mclpdoe laet ifaturday." said Mayor Simon yester day. "His declaration in favor of a draw not to exceed 2ro feet "in width, is ' a reat and pleasant surprise to me, as I Know it must be to every one interested in the early completion of the Broad way bridge. While the Port of Portland has been holding out for a 300-foot draw. Major Mclndoe calls for but iO feet of width. Our original plans were for a draw 225 feet wide, but we will cheerfully nuiid one Zoo reet wide, if such is recom mended by 'Major Mclndoe. I have said from the, outset that we will build that bridge, and I am now more than ever convinced that we will."" As published in The Sunday Orerfonian. Mayor Simon, President Munly, of tha North Bast Side Improvement Associa tion, and Councilman - Menefee called upon (Major Mclndoe Saturday after noon. They had an interview with him regarding th Broadway bridge, and ho expressed himself as friendly to the project, and declared that he- will hot ask for a draw of more than 250 feet width. Prior to the interview with Major Mc Itidoe, it had been generally believed that there was going to he great difficulty in securing the approval of tht" Watf Depart merit for th. bridge without a 300-foot draw, owing to tha hostility of the mem bers of the Port )f Portland Commis sion. They had held out strongly for a draw of 300 feet, although none of the other bridges that span the Willamette River have draws anywhere near that width. The Commission, at a special meeting last, week, , decided it lacked jurisdiction, and "indefinitely postponed" consideration of the subject. As soon as Oonsulttng Engineer Modjeski submits his plans to' Mayor Simon, they will be turned over to Major Mclndoe. A public meeting will then be called, at which all interests affected by the proposed bridge will be heard. The testimony given there will be sent to tile Secretary of War. with the recom mendation of Major Mclndoe. It Is be lieved he will recommend approval of the plans, with a draw 250 feet wide.

Subscriptions to Stock Association Being- Taken Herdsmen in Gresham District. GRESHAM. Or., Jan. 17. (Special. In view of the present agitation over the milk supply furnished by the local dairy men, augmented by the tuberculosis tests which are in progress, . there is a disposi tion among the producers to organize an association among themselves. "For sevea years past the milk and cream from nearly all of "Eastern Multno mah has been sold to some of the large Portland dealers who are charged with making most of the profits. f Subscriptions to a. stoc association are now. being taken, the object being to equip a dairy plant near, Gresham which shall be a model in every respect and which will handle only the products of the owners. It Is proposed to; submit to all laws and tests of herds and milk and to supply Portland customers With the best gradfe of milk to be produced. The, proposed . incorporators are now elirninatii all diseased cows from their herds by actual tests and replacing, them as rapidly as possible with young and healthy animals. Only a small percentage are found to be affected m any way among those owned .by the farmers.but It is intended to send an agent east for cows of eom one chosen breed suitable for their needs, and eventually to confine themselves tT that breed.. The purpose is to create a demand for pure-bred stock so that the surplus may bring the best prices and make thecows of Eastern Multnomah sought by breed ers in other localities. ' It Is also proposed to equip- the milk routesvand th. Portland delivery with auto-trucks and supply the city customers with milk at an early hour, fresh from the cows, each morning. It is intended to give the enterprise the widest publicity at all times and to invite the closest In spection of the public and customers to the "buildings, plant and herds. Unless something goes wrong, the asso ciation will be ready for business before Summer comes. Gresham Maccabees Installed. GRESHAM. Ori, Jan. 1 7. (Special.) Rockwood Tent.

Militia Duties Require Too Much Time for Which There Is No Compensation. Increased duties placed on the National Guard by the Government has caused five officers of the Oregon guard to resign, and a fear was expressed yesterday by Adjutant-General Finder that unless some method is found for reimbursing the of ficers for at least a part of the time they are compelled to devote to militia duty. the efficiency of the guard is in danger. xnrougn uie cuniiuueu iudh ui me uclici off fleers. . . . - Officers who have already tendered their resignations are: Harry C.

RE QUESTED TO CHANGE SURVEY. Rumored Resumption of Coos Bay Roud Work Leads Citizens to Take Action. a ' ' Anticipating early resumption of con struction work on the Coos Bay branrli of the Southern Pacific, Marshfleld resi dents have asked for a conference witU railway officials with the hope of secur ing a change of survey so that the lin will cross a portion of the bay by trestle and drawbridges instead of skirting the shore. ' A similar proposal was made to th company soon after the road was.dofi nitely located. It is the desire to secure easy rail facilities for prospective manu facturing sites. It is understood a right-of-way will be offered the company free of cost. The Southern Pacific officials, however, are maintaining their attitrude of uncer tainty as to immediate resumption of work and have advised the. Marshfleld residents that a conference at this time would be premature. Chief Engineer Hood's version of the statement made by him which was elab orated into practlpally an announcement that the road would be built this year, has been received by the Hurriman of fices. . Mr. Hood's sfatement was that ho was engaged in making estimates on the cost for the completion the line which might or might not he adopted.
