MORE TIME ASKED
Railway Would Extend In
junction on Fourth Street.
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

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.)
That the Oregon Electric will extend its
line from Salem to Albany , at once was
the statement made by officials of the
company before the Ctiy Council of Al
bany last evening. The Oregon Electric
applied for a franchise through this city
last night and stated that work will be
gin as soon as this franchise is granted.
The application for the franchise was re
ferred and will come up at a special
session of the Council next Wednesday
evening.
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.

VANCOUVER. Wash.. April 14.
(Special.) A large number of lumber
men and loggers walked Into the city
today from Yacolt, 28 miles, to place
laborers' liens on the North Bank
Lumber Company's property there. The
company has headquarters in the
Chamber of Commerce building, Port
land. The company, so some of the men
allege, owes from $50 to $325 to each
of the 45 loggers. The superintendent
at the camp told the men, so they say,
that he was unable to have their
checks for them yesterday.

Portlander, Sent for Alleged Embez

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."

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

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.
