"Prepare Final Report.
With Major John F. Mclndo due to
return to Portland from San Francisco
today or tomorrow. development in tha
bridge draw controversy in expected.
Federal Prosecutor John MrCourt, who
ha been making a study of the statutes
to determine whether civil ulu can be
brought by either the Government or In
dividuals aaalnst the county anthorttl"
for delavlnsr nmli at the two local
draws, said yesterday that be was not pre
pared to make a repnrt at that time and
that he Ukely would not be until some
other Important taustneas which was demanding-
his attention bad been dis
posed of.
Major Mclndo. before he left the city,
said that he hoped to hare a rrport from
the IXstrlct Attorney npon his return.
He said he would guide his further ac
tion according; to this report.
Whether the War ra.prtront. through
the local engineer, would Institute prose
cutions against the county and Its em
ployes la a matter that Major Mclndo
said he coold not determine until he
bad heard from the Enstrict Attorney's
office.
Civil Action Expected.
It has been reported, however, that
Individual vessel owners have been con
sidering the advisability of brlnrlna- civil
action acalnst those responsible for the
6laye. and they. too. are awaltlnc the
report of Mr. MoCourt. '
But tha proposed civil cases are large.y
dependent upon tha outcome of the crim
inal proceedings which the War Depart
ment t now ura-lnr tha rnetrlot Attorney
to start. T.teea protests of vesselmen
sre now In the prosecutor1 office, where
Jhey will undergo Investigation to de
termine whether tha alleged delays by
reason of which th complainants seclc
prosecution, warrant criminal proceedings.
Thle Is another matter concerning which
Major Mclndoe would like to have some
Information. He has received orders
from Washington to enforce the Govern
ment regulations' on tha draws and he
ays this is the easiest way of securing
that enforcement. If this fall other
methods will be attempted an Injunction
or a mandamus If either Is permissible.
River Traffic Need ReRulation.
Since the closed draw periods have
gone Into effect, the river men as well as
the brldgetenders have been studylnc the
vitiation to learn wherein the difficulty
lies. It as h opinion of many of these
tliat tha beat and most effective way to
secure service satisfactory to persons
passing over th brtd(t.s a well as thorw
passing under them la to seek regulation
of the river traffic Instead of the bridge
traffic.
Boats should ba classified rerrd!ng
their nece-sity of passing up and down
the river, say these quiet observers.
There are certain kinds of boats, carrying
certain kinds of cargoes, which can Illy
afford to wait, even for a few minutes.
It tha draws are closed against them.
Other they say. are not hindered In
tha performance of their duties) by delays
of half an hour and they can see no rea
son why the surface traffic should be held
back while a vessel of this class goes
through the draw.
Brldgetenders declare that some boat
men, seemlrgly. deliberately wait until
the closed period goes Into effect, then
stanal for the draw for the ostensible
purpose of annoying the public using the
brMgea They can point out several re
cent Instances of this kind, they sny. and
declare that such practices have to a
Urge extent caused whatever difficulties)
have arisen since tha first attempt at
regulation was made, specinc instances
of sucn action can bo pointed out they
say.
It baa been suggested that the river
men go Into consultation on the subject
and endeavor to regulate the movements)
of thetr boata to conform, as far as pos
sible, with surface transportation.

considerable of the distance to be cov

would mean a fail of hundreds of feet
to th foot of stony walls that are al
most perpendicular. Prouty made this
famous climb alone on the same day
that the main body of M.izamaa went
to the top of the Middle Sister. Mr.
Prouty left camp snout o cioca in nm
morning preceding the main party to the
summit of the Middle Sister. When the
Mazama reachea tne summit ui mo
Midtlln Sister they could, with the eld
of fieldglasse. see Prouty gradually
working his way up in uraciieruua

visible for half an hour at a time and
again be could not be sishted. Finally

Edward Cooking-ham. vie - president
of the Ladd Tllton Bank in Portland.
Is one of 14 bankers who contributed
to a symposium In a recent issue of the
Chicago Tribune on th money situa
tion in the West. .. ..
Views on the financial situation
were obtained by the Tribune from
representative bankers In 14 cities of
ten Western states, and the tone of the
replies published is generally opti
mistic. The replies also Indicate that
th unsettled conditions In Wall street
have led the bankers to act with cau
tion in extending credits, but that th
conditions have not reached a stags
wher they r unusual in comparison
with th average fluctuations in th
country's financial pulse as brought
about by progressive demands for cap
ital to float new enterprises.

however, restricting loans which are applied

projects founded on a real estate basis. This

payments for which the automobile dealers
have taken the notes of the farmers. To

Ia its letters to th bankers, the
Tribune submitted th following ques
tions: 1. what wlU be the probable further cash
needs of the banks In your section for erop
movlng purposes? Chicago banks find that
many of their country correspondents al
ready have drawn down their balances snd
sre asking for loans. Do yon think there will
be a much further demand of this character,

th abutment at both ends wer rein
forced with concrete backing. 8ix
piei. under th bridge, found to be
weak, had to be reconstructed and this
is now being done. New concrete floor
beams are yet to toe laid at short in
tervals from one end of the bridge
to th other. For this purpose the
pavement on the concrete floor of the
bridg is being riven up.
The new floor beams will next be put

bridge was about $76,000, and to this
amount must be added the reconstruc
tion, which may cost half as much
more. The bridge was built and re
jected In the Ine administration on
th ground that it did not conform
to the specifications.
