BRIDGE GREW IS
TO BE INCREASED
O. R. & N. Substructure Will
Be Completed in February,
Is Declaration.
HINDRANCES ARE FUTILE
W orking Force Will Probably Bulge
From 150 to 200 as Task of
Making Foundation for Mas
! . elve Span Progresses.
AVlth 150 men on the Job and the pros
pect that this number will shortly be
increased to SOO. work on the railroad
bridge of the O. R. & X. proceeds apace.
That the aub-Btructure will be completed
by February was an official estimate
given out yesterday from the Harrlman
offices.
"We are in this bridge matter to a
finish and we do not intend to allow
these delays to stop our work," said J.
F. O'Brien, Reneral manager, yesterday
afternoon. '"It has by now become pat
ent to everyone that these proceedings
are purely in the nature of temporary
hindrances by those who desire to annoy
us. They will not succeed."
That Mr. O'Brien was not in error was
ascertained from the office of Chief En
gineer Boschke. There It was learned
that SO per cent of the east pier had been
compTrted. The pedestal for the high
way viaduct on the East Side Is already
completed. Lying beside the dock are
two enormous steel cutting edges weigh
ing 400.000 pounds apiece.
Cutting Edges Important.
Upon these cutting edges the brunt of
the excavation will fall. They act as
enormous shovels. They are fitted on
the ends of two caissons, the edges of
which are loaded with tons and tons of
stone and other weighty material. At the
foot of the caisson a hydraulis stream
scoops out the dirt into the space be
tween the two caissons, from which it
foot of the caisson a hydraulic stream
loosens the earth the weighted caissons
force down upon the cutting edges, split
ting the earth to a still greater degree.
So the process goes on until the required
depth below the water has been reached.
One hundred and thirty feet below low
water is the depth the caissons will pen
erate for foundation purposes.
The process by which the work is"
going on is known as the open-caisson
process, which means that the caissons
are not air-tight.
Everything in Readiness.
Everything Is now ready for the in
stallation of the caissons, which are now
lying on the dock at East Morrison
street, ready to be floated down to the
bridge. Piling is being driven around
the situation of each caisson and upon
this piling a working platform will be
built.
On the "West Side a portion of the
Alaska dock has been torn down. Through
the Alaska dock a portion of the bridge
will pass And preparations are now un
der way to commence Immediate work
on the West Side of the river also.
High water may delay the completion
of the superstructure, but it is Mr.
Boschke's intention to expedite matters.
"We are going to show you people
something abqut bridge building," he
said yesterday.
Toial Cost $1,030,000.
The total cost of the bridge, although
estimated on the unit system, will amount
to about Jl, 630.000. The contract for the
substructure was let to the Union Bridge
Company.
Some idea of the enormous size of the
bridge and the quantity of material in
volved may be gathered from the follow
ing weights. In pounds, of various com
ponent parts of the bridge: Main girders
and trestle approaches, 2.750.000; main
river span and towers. 14,400,000; cast
steel shoes. 320.000; drums and shafting.
280.200; cables. 60,000: sheaves and locks.
2X0.000; operating machinery, 120.000; wira
ropes, 125,000. There will be 38.000 square
yards of concrete In the substructure.
The draw, which is of the lift type,
will open and close in IVi mlntues. In
actual practice it will probably be ac
complished under two minutes.
CRAXT AND BEXXETT DEMUR
Order to Arrest O. R. & X. Officials
Is Opposed in Circuit Court.
The alternative writ of mandamus,
issued .by Presiding Judge Morrow, of
the Circuit Court, against City Attor
ney Grant and Municipal Judge Ben
nett to compel them to show cause
why they should not issue warrants
for the arrest of the foreman of the
new Steel bridge construction crew, is
being fought by demurrer.
The two city officials demurred yes
terday to the petition asking for the
mandamus, on the ground that the
court has no jurisdiction, that M. O.
Collins and Dan Kellaher have no le
gal right to sue. that the clerk of the
Municipal Court Is not made a party
defendant, causing a defect in the pe
tition, that several causes for special
proceedings are Improperly united In
the petition, and that facts are not
stated sufficient to constitute a cause
for action.
LEBANON'S AVELCOME KOYAIi
Thousand People Turn Out to Greet
Railroad Officials.
In a great outdoor reception, 1000 Leb
anon people gathered in the streets Sat
urday to welcome the railroad officials
who arrived in General Manager O'Brien's
private car to -attend the celebration up
on the opening of the Lebanon-Crabtree
cutoff.
"I was never more surprised at any
thing in all my life." said William Mc
Murray, "than at the number of people
out to greet us. Lebanon did things
right up to the top notch.. We were en
tertained at a reception on the lawn of
Senator Miller's residence. Following
tnat mere was a street meeting talkfest,
followed . by a hotel banquet. Al
together It was a very satis
factory occasion" Although Mr. Mc
Murray did not say so, Lebanon
had surprises for the railroad men. The
open-air meeting was entirely unexpected
by them. "With no procedure. Senator
Miller mounted the front seat of an au
tomobile and introduced Mr. McMurrav.
He next Introduced F. W. Robinson, as
sistant freight and passenger agent, as
tne handsomest man, as well as the
Beau Brummel of the Harrlman forces."
Mr. Robinson's modesty overcame him,
but he had to speak, nevertheless.
Among the other speakers were Judge
"Wetherford, of Eugene; H. E. Lounsbury,
local freight agent of the Southern Pa
cific; Mayor Reeves, of Lebanon, and
Judge Newport. Senator Miller, with two
charming young women, led the grand
march to the banquet.
The aix-milo cutoff between Crabtree
and Lebanon was built at a cost of
H00.009. ,
Railroad Men I.Ike Mount Hood.
Mount Hood has become one of the
popular resorts for railroad men. They
have discovered that by taking train to
Hood River an easy ascent of the moun
tain can be made after a short automo
bile trip. Visiting railroad experts are
being taken on this trip every week
end. Among those making the trip for
the first time Saturday were parties
conducted by "Wesley Ladd. E. E. Ehr
man and Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett.
WORKMEN TO MEET TODAY
Grand Master Gevurtz Finds Order
in Thriving Condition.
Consideration of recommendations of
the grand master for the advancement of
the organization and reviewing the work
accomplished during the last two years
will be features of the 22d biennial ses
sioln of the Grand Lodge of the Ancient
Order of United "Workmen, which will
convene at 9 o'clock this morning at the
Oddfellows' Hall at First and Alder
streets. The session will continue for
two days.
Election of officers will take place on
the second day of the convention, when

officers will be appointed to serve for the
term of two years.
During the Incumbency of Grand Master
Phil Gevurtz. who will call the meeting
to order this morning, the order has
grr.wn to a membership of over 3500, with
nine lodges under the jurisdiction of Ore
gon, it is explained by local officers.
It Is also said the condition of the
order at present Is good, there being
over $200,000 in the reserve and benefi
ciary fund.
A special meeting of the grand lodge
having been held In November, it was
urged by a number of the members and
some of the officers that the regular
grand lodge meeting for this year could
not be held. It was argued that the
money necessary to hold the lodge meet
ing, which would amount to about $2000,
could be more profitably applied to field
work.
The question of dispensing with this
year's meeting aroused considerable dis
cussion among the various Portland
lodges, and at last Mr. Gevurtz called
a meeting for the purpose of getting the
opinion of the majority of the members.
At this meeting the prevailing sentiment
favored the holding of the grand lodge,
and, accordingly, the meeting was called.
TROUBLES OF HEIRESS END
Girl Who Eloped With Greek Cook
Turned Over to Uncle.
V
After two months of tribulation.
mostly centering around the Police
Court, Irma Jorgensen, a young girl
who eloped from Salt Lake City with
a Greek cook, saw the last of her trou
bles In Portland yesterday when she
was released from the City Jail and
turned over to an uncle, who will take
her to his home in the Mormon city.
G. H. Kendrick, the uncle, who is a
locomotive fireman, of Salt Lake City,
paid the remainder of a fine standing
against the girl and secured he release.
He said he would give her a home and
keep her away from the Greeks and
her mother, whom he blames for the
girl's trouble.
The girl, who is only 17 years old
and of striking appearance, was first
arrested several weeks ago, for being
on the streets after hours with a Greek
named Andrew Morphia. It was found
that she had eloped from the Utah city
a month before with Morphls and had
been living with him In this city. The
girl at that time said she was an
heiress, and that a reward of $1000 was
out for her capture. These statements
were afterwards found to be false.
Irma was fined $20 and held in jail
for lack of payment, being later re
leased on the understanding that Mor
phia would marry her. The prospec
tive marriage fell through and a few
days later Irma was picked up by Pa
trolman Montgomery, consorting with
another Greek. She was given an In
definite sentence 'and her people in
Utah were communicated with, "with
the result that her uncle appeared yes
terday to take her back home.

to Alaskan waters to Inspect new light
stations under construction and Com
mander Ellicott is to leave shortly on
his annual tour of that territory, the for
mal transfer has been deferred until Sep
tember 1.
It has been the custom for an army en
gineer to-be appointed supervisor of con
struction work, while the maintenance
of stations and lights and recommenda
tions for additional ones fell to the lot of
the district inspector, a naval officer. The
author of the new bill establishing the
Lighthouse Bureau is credited- with hav
ing favored a separation of the two
fighting branches of the Nation in- that
work, for it provides that either an Army
or Navy man or civilian shall serve as
inspector for three years and at the ter
mination of that period the person in
charge must be a civilian.
The new order is not regarded as a mat
ter that will cause any breach between
the Army and Navy, for it has been well
known that the engineers did not ap
preciate being assigned to duties that in
reality required the experience of mari
ners In directing the building of aids to
navigation. The Bureau of Lighthouses
has set forth in the order that the en
gineer is to turn over all details of con
struction, all lighthouse and office force
equipment, the tender Columbine and
the office quarters in which the light
house engineering is now conducted.
The change will materially lessen the
duties of Major Morrow, more than dou
ble the responsibilities of Commander
Ellicott and bring under one head all de
tails of the same character, while it will
increase the lighthouse tender fleet.
ACTIOX FOR DAMAGES FAUiS
Shaver Transportation Company. Not
Responsible for Injury to Lee. '
The Shaver Transportation Company
has been held not responsible for the
fatal injury of J. J. Lee at the North
Bank bridge in February, 1908. Judge
Bean passed upon the case in the
United States Court yesterday, and dis-
missea tne claim for damages. The
suit was brought by Katherine L. Pope,
administratrix of the estate of Lee.
Lee was employed as a mechanic in
the construction of a pier in the bridge,
and was working on a floating pile
driver. He was standing on a ladder
attempting to adjust a heavy iron cap
for a pile when the steamer Henderson
passed on the river. The complaint al
leged that the Henderson gave no heed
to signals sent up from the barge tell
ing her to anchor or lessen speed be
cause of danger, and for that reason
the barge was rocked by the swell, top
pling over the ladder and tossing Lee
to the deck.
Judge Bean held that the evidence
sustained the theory of the defense that
no danger signals were heard, and that
in passing the bridge the Henderson
was not traveling to exceed four or
five miles an hour, a speed required to
retain steerage way In the current.
The suit was dismissed.
UPPER RIVER DREDGIXG ON
Malhloma Headed for Salem to Im
prove Channel to Independence.
ReportB from the Upper Willamette
are that the Government snagboat
Mathloma and Dipper Dredge No.2 had
passed Newberg and were a consider
able distance south. Instructions of
the Government engineers were for the
craft to proceed as far as possible, and
to begin operations on the first bar
that obstructed navigation.
It is hoped to get the Mathloma
to Salem in order that she can
dredge and remove snags between
that point and Independence so a gas
oline launch plying on that part of the
river can continue Its trips. There are
no other transportation facilities in
that locality reaching the river district.
The Oregon City Transportation Com
pany's statistics of last year's business
shows that on July 2 the steamer Ore
gona went through to Salem with 60
tons of freight and in August the Po
mona, drawing more water, carried over
20 tons. There has been no tratiic this
season since June 8. Last year there
was 1.01 feet of water at Salem and to
day it Is below zero.
W1LHELMIXA HITS BRIDGE
Gasoline Schooner Did Xot Wait for
Draw to Swing Full Distance.
Having gained such headway before
the Steel bridge draw could be opened,
shortly before 1 o'clock yesterday
morning, that she failed to get suffici
ent clearance between the draw and
pier, the gasoline schooner Wilhel
mlna crashed into the structure and sus
tained damage to her foremast.
A report of tbe mishap was yester
day made to Harbormaster Speier, who
Investigated and said that it was ap
parently due to the manner in which
the schooner had been "lined up" for
the draw. She was moored at the Cen
tral dock and repairs . were started at
once. The craft is also to have her
house extended aft, which work was
contracted for when she was cleaned
and painted on the Port of Portland
drydock a week ago.
ALASKAN'S CARGO IS COMIXG
American-Hawaiian Line Will Have
Goods Brought Here.
Advices yesterday to Cook & Company,
representing the American-Hawaiian in
terests here, were to the effect that ar
rangements had been made through which
about 1200 tons of cargo on the steamer
Alaskan, which was not damaged in the
lire that recently broke out on the ves
sel, would be transported to this city
on the steamers Quinault, F. S. Loop
and Johan Poulsen. The steamers are
expected this week.
The steamer Falcon, plying regularly
for that line between the Bay City and
Portland, reached the former port yes
terday and will also bring cargo north,
arriving next week. The matter of pro
viding increased facilities on the run
has not been determined, though Coast
executives of the company have been in
conference w-ith the directing powers at
New Tork and it is expected a change
will be authorized January 1.
PILOTAGE CUT XOT ALARMING
Despite- Bar Pilotage Reduction In
dependents Can Work.
ASTORIA, Or., July 18. (Special.)
Although realizing that the individual in
comes will be materially lessened as a
result of the recent reduction in the bar
pilotage rates made by the Port of Port
land, the Independent bar pilots are ap
parently not greatly alarmed over the
action of the commission, at least so far
as it will affect the amount of business
done by tbem.
They say that while they believe the
former rates were sufficiently low for
the service rendered, still as the cut has
been made, they have no alternative other
than to meet it, and will do so. Captains
Anderson and Swansen are here but Cap
tain Woods has gone to San Francisco
after the Norwegian steamer Titanla,
which is coming to Portland to load.
Fire Causes Emphatic Order.
One result of a Are that destroyed a
large portion of the upper roadway on
Ainsworth Dock Thursday evening was
the issuance of an order yesterday by
the Harrlman interests for the con
struction of immense bins- for the re
ception of waste material on the dork
and no fires are permitted to be lighted
on the property to the rear. A force
of men was stanted clearing the space,
on which new freight sheds are to be
erected, and as rubbish cannot be
dumped in the river, it must be hauled
away in the future. Repairs made nec
essary by the blaze were practically
completed1 last night, including the re
building of a portion of the stairway
leading to the Steel bridge.
Pactolus Finishes Cargo.
Shortage of seamen for offshore voy
ages is not bothering the skipper of the
American bark Pactolus, which yesterday
finished taking on about 1,200,000 feet of
Oregon flr at Inman-Poulsen's, for he
said last evening that he had a crew
and would leave for sea tomorrow morn
ing at 10 o'clock, bound for Cape Town.
The schooner Inca. which arrived yester
day from Honolulu, Is due in the harbor
today, having left up in tow of the
steamer Ocklahama. She is under char
ter to the Pacific Export Lumber Com
pany 'to load for New Zealand.
More Machinery Added to Pulitzer.
In keeping with minor plans made for
the rejuvenation of the Port of Portland
pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer, in the
way of wireless apparatus. Marine Archi
tect Norrlin will accompany Superintend
ent Harry Campion to St. Johns today
to inspect the craft preparatory to in
stalling apparatus for raising her sails
and anchor by power.' In the past she
has been manned by an ordinary crew,
and It is not expected her company will
be reduced when she is recommissloned,
but it is deemed best to provide her with
more modern equipment.
' Wireless on 100 Pacific Craft.
When the pilot schooner Josph Pulit
zer, of the Port of Portland Commis
sion, is equipped with wireless, which
is expected to be operating August 1,
she will have the distinction of being
the 100th vessel to carry the aero sys
tem on the Coast. Few of the carriers
so equipped are operating offshore so
that they form an admirable relay sys
tem, being generally scattered from
Alaskan waters to the Mexican Coast.
Rainier to Carry Grain.
That California dealers are keen for
new crop Northwest wheat is evident
from the fact it was yesterday reported
that the steamer Rainier, which has been
plying between Portland and San Fran
cisco, carrying lumber South, had been
fixed for a full cargo of grain. The rate
is said to be J2, which is 50 cents in ad
vance of that paid during the past few
weeks.
AVeather Better Now for Traveling.
But one passenger was reported sea
sick on the steamer Geo. W. Elder,
which arrived up yesterday from San
Pedro, via San Francisco and Eureka.
George Kinney, steward of the vessel.
said it was one of the smoothest voy
ages of the season and that there was
a cessation of tbe bothersome north
west winds.
Mongolia Again Floated.
YOKOHAMA, .July 18. The Pacific
Mail Bteamer Mongolia, from Hongkong
to San Francisco, which touched again
after having been floated from her
stranded position off the Island of Hon
do, was set free by the rising tide to
day. The vessel was not. damaged.
Tender Heather Goes North.
ASTORIA, Or., July 18. (Special.) The
lighthouse tender Heather sailed this
evening with supplies for the light sta
tions in yutheastern Alaska. She will
be absent about, Ave weeks. The light
house tenders Armerla and Columbine
are now In Alaskan waters.
