O'BRIEN GIVES RAY
OF HOPETO MAYOR
General Manager Explains He
Cannot Negotiate for Ter
minal Company.
0. R. &-N. AND CITY CLOSE
Therefore, Says Railroad Man, Why
Not Settle Differences Between
City and Road and Condemn
What Is Xeeded of Others.
That the Northern Pacific Terminal
Company was not thought of when ne
gotiations were begun by the O. R. &
leading to.. the desired vacation by
the city of streets needed for the con
struction of an East Side freight depot
and the new railway bridge; that the
terminal company was not brought into
the affair until the Council committee
was appointed, and that the commit
tee itself brought the terminal com
pany into the matter, were declarations
made by General Manager O'Brien, of
the Harriman lines, yesterday.
Mr. O'Brien insisted he had never in
terfered with Manager Lyons in the
arrangements being made by the termi
nal company and contended that if the
committee desires the construction of
the Broadway bridge it should treat
with the O. R. & N. and the terminal
company separately. Mr. O'Brien be
lieves some one is opposed the
Broadway bridge. 0jf
"I know of no reason wlV the O. R.
& N. and Southern Pacific companies
should be penalized because the city
cannot or has not come to an agree
ment with the terminal company's rep
resentatives," said Mr. O'Brien.
Mr. O'Brien declared the majority of
stockholders of the terminal company
. 'the O. R. & NT. and Southern Pacific)
could not spend money on improve
ments without the consent of the mi
nority stockholders (the Northern Pa
cific). He said he was unable, there
fore, to deal with the city on behalf
of the terminal company, and this be
ing the case the city, if really anxious
for a settlement, should settle its dif
ferences with the O. R. & N. and then
promptly proceed to a condemnation
proceedings for the property of the
terminal company.
This view of the case has evidently
appealed to Mayor Simon, for he was
obviously more cheerful regarding a
final settlement of the question than
he has been previously, after a meet
ing of the special committee, consid
ered Informal owing to trie .absence of
Councilman Rushlight.
City and O. It. & N., Close Together.
, Mr. O'Brien drew attention to the
fact that the appraisers appointed by
the special committee of the Council to
go over the demands and requests of
both parties to an agreement showed
a difference In favor of the O. R. & N.
of $13,480, practically 4 per cent. On
the other hand, he said, the appraiser
asked by the O. R. & N. to do the work.
C. K. Henry, reported a difference' in
favor of the city of 1134.628. or about
30 per cent.
I "Thus, taking the most favorable
view of the matter, that brought for
ward by the appraisers of the city,
there is only a balance in our favor of
four per cent, which does not seem a
very large rock - upon which to split
said Mr. O'Brien.
Mr. O'Brien commented upon the fact
thaejf Mayor Simon had not given out
the demands made on the terminal com
pany, and said that, as a matter of
fact, he was not even conversant with
the contents of the last letters sent by
Manager Lyons to the Mayor

Prelate Not Impressed With
New Assignment Plan. !
MINISTERS GET HIS IDEAS
Wisdom of Sending Bishops to Same
Conferences -Tvrlce In Succession
.- Has Not Been Demonstrated,
He Telia Ixcal Association.
Bishop Charles W. Smith, who has
lust returned to his Episcopal residence
in Portland after an absence of several
months, yesterday morning declared to
the Methodist ministers assembled in
Taylor-street Church, that the wisdom
of the board of bishops in assigning a
resident bishop to preside successively
at annual conferences has yet to be
demonstrated." It was rather evident
from his statements concerning this
recommendation of the last general
conference that he is not favorably
Impressed with the Innovation.
Bishop Smith, who has general super
vision over the Northwest work of the
Methodist Episcopal Church as resi
dent bishop, presided last year at the
annual conference for Oregon at Cot
tage Grove. He has been assigned by
the board of bishops to preside again
this year, as was recommended by the
last general conference. Other bishops
have been returned to their respective
conferences of last yar. the plan be?
Ing adhered to by the board as nearly
as is possible. Three bishops have died
since the general conference met, and
their work has to be parcelled out to
others, 'sp that some will have new
conferences. "
Bishop Asked to Talk.
When the Methodist Ministerial As
sociation of Portland was called to or
der by President C T. Wilson yester
day morning. Bishop Smith was asked
to make a few remarks. He had been
asked to return by unanimous vote of
the Portland ministers,, who have felt
greatly pleased at his 'work wince he
first came to Oregon.
Bishop Smith expressed Iteen pleas
ure at being again in Portland, and
gave a brief outline, of his long trip on
official business, after which he said
that he was not .originally down for
the presidency of the Northwest con
ferences this year.
"I was down for other conferences,"
said the bishop, "but at last Bishop
Warren, senior bishop, rearranged the
assignments and said -he guess-ad I
would have to go to my former confer
ences this year. I said, 'All right,
bishop. If you say so; I will accept my
appointments, as every preacher has to
accept the appointment given by the
bishop. And so I am here."
Wisdom Not Demonstrated.
Bishop Smith then proceeded to say
that, while the plan of assigning bish
ops successively to preside at annual
conferences might be a wise plan, "the
wisdom of the same has as yet to be
demonstrated." He said that, in many
Instances, very serious problems, re
quiring heroic action by a bishop, arise;
he must aet accordingly.
v It has been the custom of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church heretofore to
assign a different bishop to an annual
conference each year. Bishops Mc
Dowell, Spellmeyer, Moore, Hughes and
Smith have presided over the Oregon
conference within as many years, but
under the new scheme. Bishop Smith
will be returned as presiding officer
for 1910. 1911 and 1913.
Mistaken Impression Abroad.
A mistaken impression got abroad
yesterday to the effect that a temper
ance symposium would take place yes-'
terday morning. This will take plac-e
next Monday morning, and the associa
tion voted that each preacher shall in
vite personally five lay members to at
tend this service. "Why Oregon Is Go
ing Dry" will be the general topic.
"Ruin Wrought by the Liquor Traf
fic", will be the subject of a 10-Tninute
paper by W. H. Hampton, pastor of
Clinton Kelly Memorial Church; "Ben
efits of Prohibition" will be discussed
by J. W. Exton. while C. L. Hamilton,
of Central Church, will talk on "Re
sponsibility of the Voters." ' .
Acting upon a suggestion made by
President Wilson, the ministers went
in a body to the Meier & Frank res
taurant after their meeting and had
luncheon, with Bishop Smith and Rev.
Messrs. Hart find Magann as guests.
Dr. Spencer S. Sulliger, superintendent
of Vancouver district, was also present.
The paper of the day was read by Rev.
R. V. yisher. pastor, of the HUlsboro
Cbwreh. It was well received.

Inquiry for Seats Indicates That
Flayers Will Get Good Sum to
Start Auditorium Fnnd.
The American Beauty Show, whWh
will be given at the Bungalow Theater

pany. She will ha assisted in a musical
comedy skit by A. Lincoln Hart.

attendance for the three performances.

ing, at 10 o'clock, at the Bungalow.
JUDICIARY PROBLEM UP
t r .
State Bar Association Will Discuss
Nonpartisan Feature Today.
"Non-political Judiciary" will be dis
cussed from widely divergent points of
view when the State Bar Association
meets this morning in the room of the
presiding judges at the Courthouse. A
committee of the bar consisting of M. L.
Pipes. A. E. Clark, Alex Bernstein, Ralph
E. Moody and Dan J. Malarkey was re
cently appointed to investigate the sub
ject. Aside from this question, the meeting
will be largely -occupied by general ad
dresses. There will be no general trials
during the day on account of the associa
tion's semi-annual gathering.
