BRIDGE NOT COMPLETED Trains 'Will Be Removed When Structure Is Finished, Says At torneyJudge Bean Takes Time to I 00k Up Laws. Whether the Southern Pacific shall be allowed temporarily to continue operating steam trains . on Fourth Street la to be determined in a few days, .probably by next Monday, by Judge Bean, of the United States Dla trlot Court, who was asked yesterday by the company to continue the In junction preventing the city from in terfering with the operation of the trains there until the United States -Supreme Court can decide finally the company's rights. City Attorney Kavitnaugh told the court that he was willing that an ex tension of time should be given the company until it completed its Oswego bridge, but he opposed an extension that would permit the company to continue operating steam trains on the street until the case is finally decided by the Supreme Court. This decision may not be reached for two or three years. Judge XOoks Into Law. Judge Bean was uncertain that the flaw would permit him to grant any tfixtension of the time, unless for the entire period required by the Supreme jRourt In making its decision. He took jfthe case under advisement until he ! ould determine his authority in that regard. W. IX Kenton, attorney for the South ern Pacific Company, holds that the decision of the United States IMstrict Court favoring the city in its effort to remove steam trains from Fourth Street does not mean that the company cannot put electric cars on that line. Following the hearing of the question In court yesterday afternoon, Mr. Felton said that as soon as the Oswego bridge Is completed the company in tends to remove its trains from Fourth street, but until that time it will be Impossible for the company to stop running locomotives there without put ting a complete stop to Its West Side traffic. IVnton Defines Position. '"We are going to appeal the case to the Supreme Court," said Mr. Fenton yesterday, "and we don't want to be .forced to remove the steam trains from Ftourth street until the Supreme Court has decided the case. We shall not be In a. position to put electric cars on the street until after the Oswego bridge is completed, and therefore we are not prepared to deal with the city on the subject of putting electric cars on the street at present. "1 am sure we can put electric cars c-n the street without permission from the Council, but we shall not do so, however, without first presenting the subject to that body." $9000 PENALTY IS FEARED Steel for Courthouse May Not Be In riace Before June. -SSL' Tfcs steel framework for the new Court house east wing is now four stories tilgh, and the work of putting in the imrnt and tiling on the first floor has commenced. Workmen were at work yenterday riveting the steel so far erected. It does not seem probable, how ever, that all the steel will be in place before the end of 'May. Tii that case O. li. Helntz. of the Pa cific Iron Works, who has the contract for putting up the steel, will pay a penalty of $3000 unless the County Court decides to grant an extension of time. County r Commissioner Lightner and County Judge Cleeton have expressed themselves as being in favor of denying the time extension. The steel was to have been in place November 2T. and since that time Mr. Helntz has been for feiting1 $50 a day. Thus far the county 1ms made two pay ments for the steel work done, one for $8000 and another for $!KK. The con tract price, for the furnishing and erec tion of the steel for the six-story wing was $37,578, so that $0,57S remains to be paid by the county unless the penalty is deducted. LABORERS WITHOUT MEANS Statement From Seaside Concerning Men En Route to Work. SEASIDE, Or., April 11. (To the Edi tor.) Under date of April 10, The Ore gonian's Seaside correspondent states that "the Council will make a protest to H-VLLKTS COMET RISES AT 3:51 A. M. TODAY. Hailey's comet rises at SrTtl A.

Portland employment -agents who are said to be sending men unprovided with funds for their support on their way to the construction camps In this .locality. These men, arriving late in the day, are compelled to roam the streets while wait ing forthe stages to take them to their work the morning following their arrival. Upon occasions the jail has been thrown open to them for shelter, but the demands upon its capacity are overtaxed." These are the facts in the case: At the last meeting of the Council one of the members, who Is Interested in the teaming business, gave vent to a little spleen because of his fail re to secure the hauling of the mem who are sent from Portland to the construction camps at Nehalem by way of Seaside. Not once since the beginning of work on the Lytle road has a single laborer roamed the streets of Seaside at night. The jail has never been overcrowded, and in all not more than 5 per cent of the 2100 who passed through Seaside were given lodg ings at the jail. All of the men have come from one agency, and none are shipped except those who claim to have means sufficient to defray the cost of their bed and breakfast. Occasionally some come without funds, but they are Invariably provided with breakfast. For a time a small percentage of the men shipped after reaching Seaside, leaving the employment agent but the amount of the fare from Portland plus cost of rooms and meals, but for several months past the agents have shipped none except those who claimed to have funds. The shipment of the men via Seaside, and their return to Portland by the same route, has brought over $S0o0 to this place, and there is not a single business man who indorses the attitude of the sore heads. Having looked after the men while here, and hauled all of them to Cannon Eeach. I am in a position to state the facts in the case, and like almost every other citizen of Seaside, do not share the belief of the police Judge here that it Is a crime to be poor, nor that of the Individuals who suggest legal steps to compel the employment agents to divide their funds with applicants for work.

SANE 4TH BILL UP Deputy Fire Marshal Submits Law Big Cities Follow. ONLY DISPLAY ALLOWED To remove skin eruption., apply a little Smntineptic Lotion and they wUl quickly dicappear. Complete Ban on Fireworks Wanted, Kire Committee Presents Pro posed Ordinance Which. Is Approved by the Mayor. An ordinance, the terms of which prohibit the sale or use of explosives other than special display works, was unanimously recommended to the City Council for passage by the fire com mittee of the executive board yester day afternoon. The proposed measure was referred by the committee to Mayor Simon. The Mayor says he will use his influence to have it considered favorably by the Council at its next session. Deputy Fire Marshal Roberts drafted the proposed ordinance, patterning it after the law in vogue in New York and San Krancisco, as well as other large cities throughout the country. It transfers the authority to Issue per mits from the Council to the Chief of the Fire Department, who acts un der orders from the Mayor and execu tive board. Mayor Urges Ban. Mayor Simon has made a strong rec commendation that Portland eliminate fireworks and explosives from the cel ebration, of the Fourth of July. He takes the stand that the damage to life, limb and property every year should be stopped. He aims to urge the Council to make it possible for the executive branch of the city to forbid the sale of explosives. Deputy Fire Marshal Roberts pre sented the proposed ordinance to the fire committee yesterday afternoon. Fire Chief Campbell suggested that it be indorsed by the committee and sent to Mayor Simon to place with the Council. This was done. "It's a good move," said Chairman- O'Shea, "Yes, but I feel sorry for the 'kids,' sighed Mr. Pier. "I know we must protect them, though, and favor it." Bill Likely to Pass. "Yes, it is much better to preserve their lives and to protect property than to try to gratify their desires in this respect at Ihe terrible cost," said Mr. Connell. Many members of the City Council have expressed their belief that the sale of explosives for Fourth of July purposes should be prohibited, and it seems likely that such a measure will be passed. There is a strong protest against it by merchants who wish to sell fireworKS, but the general impres sion in the city seems strongly in favor of the elimination of the danger ous fireworks and the substitution of a more beneficial form of celebration. NO FIREWORKS TO BE AIjIiOWED La Grande Forbids Explosives in City Limits. LA GRANDE, Or.. April 14. (Special.) To forbid the use of firecrackers in the City of La Grande, in accordajice with the ordinance already exisring. and to agree to send a committee of four men to Northwestern cities at once to study paving questions- were the chief actions by the Council last night. A committee consisting of A. V. An drews and YT. J. Church for the Council and W. H. Bohnekamp and J. E. Foley for the property-owners, will visit Port land and other towns to study paving before the lone bid now in the hands of the Council is acted upon. FISHERMEN TO DEFY LAW Attorney Tells Them They Have a Perfect Right to Fish. OREGON CITY, Or., April 14. (Special.) In epite of the f.ct that the Supreme Court decision sustained the action of Judge Morrow, of the Multnomah County Circuit Court, in declining to grant an Injunction to the local fishermen restrain ing the State Board of Fish Commission ers from closing the Clackamas and Wil lamette rivers, the fishermen of this sec tion plan to go out on the river at noon tomorrow, when the closed season fixed by statute ends. They have been told by their local at torney, George C. Brownell, that they have a perfect right to fish, and they will do so and take chances on the conse quences. The statutory closed season for the Wil lamette and Clackamas rivers is from March 15 to April IS and the State Board of Fish Commissioners attached 15 days to each end of the season, closing the two rivers from March 1 to May 1. It is contended by Attorney Brownell that the decision of the Supreme Court does not settle the matter, as the highest tribunal in the state ruled that the point involved was one of law, and not of equity, and that the action of the State Board of Fish Commissioners was a mat ter of law entirely. SALEM-ALBANY LINE NEXT Oregon Electric' Officials Ask Fran chise for Early Construction. ALBANY. Or., April 14. (Special.)

The Oregon Electric desires to lay a track the entire length of Fifth street, from the eastern to the western limits of the city and to lay a switch on Baker street for one block on each side of Its Fifth-street line. It is said that the franchise will be granted next week. MEN WALK, ASK LIENS Vacolt Loggers Would Sue Xorth Bank Lumber Company. VANCOUVER. Wash.. April 14. (Special.)

Eczema and other skin disorders can be quickly and completely cured with a few application of Sanlieptlc Lotion. Portlander, Sent for Alleged Embez zler, Is Told Prisoner Wanted Here Was Released. When Deputy Constable Rennick ar rived in Denver "Wednesday night to bring; back to Portland Edward Patter son, an . alleged embezzler, who was ar retted April 5 by the police there on advices from Constable Wagner, he found the captive had been released even before Rennick left here, April 7, and had fled from Denver. This infor mation waa contained in a telegram re ceived from Rennick by Oonstable Wag ner yesterday. 0 Patterson is wanted on a charge of having swindled W. Murphy, pro prietor of the Central Stables, out of $635 realized on the sale of horses belonging to him at Seattle a month ago. Patter son escaped the police and went to Den ver. His whereabouts were learned by Constable Wagner from Patterson's little daughter. According to Rennick's dispatch Patter son is thought to have gone to Kansas City and the police there have been asked to watch for him. Constable Wag ner expresses indignation over the action of the Denver police in releasing Pat terson on his own recognizance. "I wired Chief of Police Armstrong to hold him and that I would send a man there," he said. "I went to the expense of wiring him the full text of the war rant and he replied that he would hold Patterson. I will demand an explanation." Arbitrator Named by Court. The County Court decided yesterday DIETING DOES NOT CURE INDIGESTION SELFDENIAL BY PRESCRIBED RULES OF HEALTH USED TO BE CON SIDERED A CURL Starvation is a strange remedy for any disease. Yet starvation -by rigor ous diet was once generally resorted to in cases of Indigestion and Dys pepsia. Even yet, it is sometimes tried. Such a remedy is worse than useless. Every day of life consumes a portion of the tissues of the human body. The food we eat serves to repair the waste, and you can't build up the system by withholding- the material necessary for these purposes. When you have Dys pepsia or Indigestion, or any form of stomach trouble, take a little Kodol to help the stomach do its work. We say, take Kodol, because it is the only preparation that will digest all the food you eat. Every tablespoonful of Kodol digests 24 pounds .of food. It supplies the same digestive juices that are found in a healthy, vigorous stomach. There are other preparations that are partial digesters, but what your stomach needs Is complete rest. Kodol Is the only preparation that will give It. A man is so constituted that he needs a variety of foods; to reduce the (Variety always produces bad re sults. In 99 cases out of 100, Indi gestion is due to lack of some of the elements which constitute the natural digestive Juices. Xodol supplies just what is needed. Our Guarantee: Get a dollar bottle of Kodol. If you are not benefited the druggist will at once return your money. Don't hesitate; any druggist will sell you Kodol on these terms. The dollar bottle con tains times as much as the 50c bottle. Kodol' is prepared in the lab oratories of E. C. DeWitt & Co, Chicago. to employ A. E. Clark to investigate J the merits of the claims B. M. Lorn- I bard, W. A. Spanton, the United States Trust Company and others make to a deed to the County Poor Farm on the Canyon road. Mr. Clark is to advise the County Court as to the legal rights of the real estate men, and to whom the deed ought to be made. COOS LAND CONTESTS SOON Fall Creek Country Homestead Claims Under Legal Action. MARSHFIELD, Or., April 14. (Spe cial.) The first of a series of land con tests in which Coos County men are in terested will be heard April 26, and other cases of the same nature will follow. About 50 men from this city and other parts of ' the - county have homestead claims in the Fall Creek country In the northern part of the county- and they are all contested. Some of the home steaders are located on land on which the Northern Pacific scrip has been placed and it will be a question whether the scrip or the homestead claims are to stand. Others of the homesteaders are. located on land which is claimed by the Southern Pacific on the old railroad land grant but which the homesteaders claim is outside the limit of the grant and that the Southern Pacific has never placed indemnity scrip upon it. The contests wii be hard fought. There are many witnesses and a number of attorneys are interested. 3ome of the homesteaders squatted on the land four or five years ago and the contests have been pending for some time. The hearing to begin this month, it is expected, will finally settle the rights to the land. The property involved is all valuable, and on some of it is found rich timber. There are 48 distinct diseases of the eye. No other or an of the human body has so many.
