PAVING WILL BE LOW
MAYOR XOT TO ALLOW 1IASSAM
PRICE TO EXCEED $1.75.
w rat Side Bids at $1.80 a
Square Yard Permitted, bnt Gon
ers! Increase Is Denied.
Efforts of ths Oregon Hassam- Pav
ing Company to Increase the cost of Its
material as laid on the streets of Port
land from $1.75 to 11.80 a square yard
have failed because of the refusal of
Mayor Simon to consent to It. He Is
sued an ultimatum to that effect yester
day and will not permit the awarding
of contracts above 11.75 a yard unless
petitioned for specifically at a higher
price by the actual property holders.
Mayor Simon consented to the award
ing of three contracts at the last ses
sion of the Executive Board because of
peculiar conditions which he felt amply
Justified him In so dolntr. The rate In
these instances was ti.so a square yaro.
or t cents a yard above the standard
rat that th city has been paying for
Hassam. Th contracts were on Grand
avenue, near the Inman-Poulsen Lum
ber Company's plsnt: and on Lmerioa
street. North Alblna. and Flake street,
on the lower peninsula.
"I was called up by the manager or
the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company,"
said the Mayor, "and he asked me to
award the contract for ths Grand
avenue Job at once. I explained to him
that It had been held op a long time be
cause of the rate of 11.85 a square yard
bid by the Hassam Company. He re
plied that he waa willing to pay that
Drice to get the work right away. I
investigated and found that other resi
dents on that avsnu bad expected to
pay 11.85. That was why I consented
to the awarding of this contract. How
ever. I felt that tl-85 was too high and
reached an agreement with the paving
company whereby th property-owners
there will get the pavement for 11.80. or
S cents less than that was bid.
"In the Emerson-street bid. the com
pany specified 11.85. too. I had been
Importuned by some members of th
Board of School District No.l to hav
this work don at tha higher figures.
as they were willing to pay that sum to
get he Job completed in th Summer.
Ths other contract Is on Flske street,
far down on the Peninsula, where it is
expensive to haul materials. In these
two laat-named cases. I secured a re
duction of 6 cents a square yard from
the rate bid."
"Will there be a standard Increase in
the price of Hassam T was asked of tha
Mayor.
There will not be. was th reply.
I shall Insist upon th rate remaining
at $1.75 a yard, as heretofore, unless
when a large proportion of the property-owners
on a street petition for It
at a higher rata I shall not counte
nance higher rates tinder other condi
tions."
Th Hassam Paving Company's offi
cials have been complaining of late that
the rat of 11.75 a yard Is too low for
a reasonable profit, but the Mayor says
he would rather not hav th work
don than to consent to a general In
crease In the cost of the pavement
throughout th city.
City Engineer Morris yesterday
branded aa false ths statement to tha
effect that the specifications for pave
ments hav been altered within the
last two years to reduc th price
charged a square yard.

Xo Member of House or Senate Had
Interest in Contracts, bnt Mc
Morray Vsed Vnduc Influ
enceFees Exorbitant.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 28. Th special
committee of the House, appointed last
Summer to Investigate Senator Gore's
charges of attemtped bribery in con
nection with J. F. McMurray's Indian
attorney contracts In Oklahoma, made
Its final report to the House lonigui.
Th majority of th committee finds
thst Jake L. Hamon actually did. about
May . 1910, make an Improper pro
posal to Gore respecting th McMurray
contracts and that about Juno 16. 1910,
he npproaehed Representative C. F.
Creager with an Improper proposal on
the iau subject. The committee
finds no evidence, however, to show
that Hamon was "acting by authority
of. or with the consent or knowladg
of, McMurray."
McM array Is Exonerated.
The committee exonerates McMur
ray of any connection with an attempt
improperly to Influence members of th
House or Senate. It docs find, how
ever, that he uied more than "undue
Influence" to secure the support of
Green McCurtaln and his .son, D. C
McCurtaln. In getting the contracts by
transferring a contingent Interest of
lIu.OOO n the contracts to D- C. Mc
Curtaln. Th committee finds that no mem
bers ot the House or Senate had any
Interest whatever In the McMurray
contracts. Th Intimation that Repre
sentative Byrd 8. McGutre of Oklahoma
had ruch Interest is found to be with
out fact, and to have arisen from the
friendly relations existing between
McGulre and McMurray.
Th connection of ex-Senator C. L
Long of Kansas and ex-Senator John
M. Thurston T Nebraska with the Mc
Murray contracts is said to have been
entirely proper, being simply ths In
terest of attorneys properly employed.
Both were employed in a legal way
after they had left the Senate.
"With reference to the findings In re
lation to th employment of ex-Senator
Thurston and ex-Senator Long," says
the report, "the committee is of the
opinion that, while they were lawfully
employed to represent Mr. McMurray in'
the matter of bis contracts, McMurray
undoubtedly waa actuated In engaging
their sen-Ices by the fact that they had
served In the Senate and therefor oc
cupied an advantageous position."
Hamon Is Only Sinner.
Th commute also finds that a lobby
existed In Washington during tha last
session In the Interest of the McMurray
contracts, but does -not find any evi
dence that It resulted In corrupt prac
tices, or that Improper overture were
made to members of Congress, except In
the case of Jak L. Hamon, who Is
found to have proceeded without Mc
Murray's knowledge or approval.
The majority report Is signed by th
chairman, Charles H. Burke, of South
Dakota, and by Representatives C. B.
Miller, of Minnesota, and P. H. Camp
bell, of Kansas. Representative E. W.
Saunders of Virginia concurs tn the find
ings and tha report, but does not sign
the entire majority report. Represent
ative John H. Stevens of Texas pre
sented a minority report.
Th committee's investigations, carried
on In Oklahoma and in Washington,
went Into all phases of the Indian at
torney question. The McMurray con
tracts, which were not rejected by
President Roosevelt and which It was
proposed that Congress should recognize,
ware supposed to involve contingent
fees of about $3,000,000.
The committee found that fees had
been paid to attorneys amounting to
nearly $4,000,000 and "some of them wers
exorbitant, unconscionable and In con
travention of public policy, notwithstand
ing the fact that they had the direct
or indirect approval of Congress."
Tha minority report, signed alone
by Representative Stephens, of Texas.
says the statements made by Gore put
tha House on Its guard and prevented
the approval of the McMurray con
tracts, thus defeating "these outra
geous contracts, which. If ratified,
would have despoiled the Indiana of
several millions of dollars."
Stephens' report maintains that there
was a powerful lobby engaged by Mc
Murray. who. says the minority re
port, admits having in his employ ex
Unlted States Senator Long, of Kansas.
and Thurston, of Nebraska, and also
Richard C. Adams, an attorney of
Washington.
"Th duty of thes employes." says
the report, "would compel them to
lobby through Congress at that session
the very kind of an amendment that
Representative McGulre says he re
ceived from either McMurray or Gov
ernor Johnson and had Mr. Tawney of
fer it as an amendment to a bill be
fore a conference committee.
Corrupt Proposals Shown.
Stephens says Gore was approached
by Jak L. Hamon substantially as
charged by Gore; that Hamon prob
ably was acting by authority or with
out knowledge or McMurray; that a
member of Congress was approached
by Hamon substantially as charged
by Gore; that the preponderance of
evidence shows a questionable activ
ity on the part of a member, "that to
my mind Indicates an Interest: that
the evidence does not prove that a
member of the Senate was Interested
tn the McMurray contracts; that an
ex-Senator from Nebraska and an ex
Senator from Kansas were Interested
In th McMurray contracts; but that
th evidence shows no Impropriety of
such Interests; nor that they attempt
ed Improperly to Influence any Sena
tor or Representative In respect to tha
McMurray contracts.
He further holds that the evidence
shows st least one person made corrupt
proposals in connection with the con
tracts; that an Improper proposal was
made to D. C. Mccurtain on the part of
McMurray, an Improper proposal to
Green McCurtaln on the part of George
W. Scott, and an Improper proposal to
W. A. Durant. speaker of the Choctaw
Council, by G. W. Scott and Tom San-guln.
PENINSULA STARTS ANEW
Roso Association to Be Reorganized;
Kenton Promises Aid.
As th old organisation has been dis
solved the Peninsula Rose AasodaUan
may be reorganized under new officers
and new membership. The former or
ganization was composed of 15 repre
sentatives from all portions of the
Peninsula, but only half a dozen have
remained in the association. The dis
banding ot the association Monday night
leaves th field open for a new organi
sation. "I was in favor of the eledtlon of J. H.
Nolta, or some other active man," said
H. Q. Sibray yesterday, "but he was
not present and we did nothing. I think
that the association should be reorgan
ised, a president elected, with full power
to act. I have given so much of my
time to the work of the association that
I could not continue. That was the sit
uation with the other men. Collection
of the money for expenses and the de
tails took much of our time, both before
and during the festival. We have done
our share and want others to take up
the work. There Is no reason why the
Peninsula share In the Rose Festival
should be dropped because the old com
mittee has dropped out. Kenton people
will help."
"Kenton will assist" said S. L. Wood
ward, president of the Kenton Push
Club, yesterday, "but we cannot take
the lead. Our club has a lot of local
Improvements under way. We do not
grow many roses yet, but we are will
ing to do our share."
SCOPE TO EE BROADENED
GOOD ROADS ASSOCIATION TO
BE REORGANIZED.
New Plan Is to Extend Influence to
Many Sections, for Effect
on Legislation.
With a vie of perfecting a state
wide organization. Dr. Andrew C.
Smith was Instructed by the Oregon
Good Roads Association, of which he
Is president, last night to appoint two
committees, one on constitution and
by-laws and one on ways and means,
to form an organization which will
Include every county In Oregon.
The Idea presented by the speakers
was to extend the Influence of the or
ganization into every channel in Ore
gon. In anticipation of the need of
widespread sentiment to secure needed
legislation.
The meeting was attended by several
road enthusiasts, among them being L.
R. Webster, E. Henry Wemme, C. T.
Praal. John S. Beall. F. C. Riggs. E. F.
Cannon, Dr. A. C. Smith, Secretary
Priest. Marshall D. Cannon and Phil
S. Bates.
Mr. Webster expressed a desire to
be counted among those who did not
agree with the action of the Good
rloads Association in recommending
to th Governor that h veto the state
highway board bill. "The bill." he
said, "waa a fine piece of legislation.
t. ..niiiH nil that was desired ex
cept control of state-aided roads, and
while state aid will always be a moot
question, It can be said that In cre
ating roads In the state the bill ve
toed could have accomplished the re
sults desired. It was Instructive and
provided for the very fhlng advo
cated scientific building of roads in
Oregon."
John S. Beall proposed that the Or
egon Good Roads Association be re
organized. "It is evident," he said,
"that we are unfortunate In our con
nntinn with tha Lerislature. The so
ciety should be made larger and built
on broader lines. Therefore prop
that we make it state wide, include
toi.h it. mnira ail nf the business men
of the state and secure the co-opera
tion of the commercial organisanune.
E. F. Cannon moved that a commit-
4-A flva ha nnnnlnted ' to devise
plans for a state-wide organization and
the chairman named jonn . ceau,
a Jackson. E. H. Wemme. F. C. Rlggs
and E. F. Cannon.
W. L. Bristol, L. R. Webster and C.
T. Praal were delegated to prepare
the constitution and by-laws.
The secretary was ordered to Inform
all of the members of the association
that the new organization would be
effected in two months and that the
present subscriptions would continue
until that time, after which It was pro
posed to reduce the fees.

LOS ANGELES. Cal., Feb. 28. (Spe
cial.) With every hour the net tightens
about Dr. Flournl Plerrepont,' who was
arrested yesterday on the charge of pass
ing fictitious checks. The officers have

vast holdings, and in their trip across
th country they left many unpaid ho
tel and mercantile bills.
Th couple were trailed through al
most every city of importance in the

After their hasty departure from
Minneapolis, Plerrepont and Mrs. For
tier went to Chicago, thence to Kansas
City, Louisville, St. Louis, Nashville,
Boise. Spokane, Seattle, Tacoma, Port
land, 6an Francisco and finally Los An
geles. "When w reached Boisa our money
gav oat." said Plerrepont today, "Claire
thought I had money and I thought she
did. We tried a 'phony" check and It
worked so well that we lived on them
in Spokane, Seattle, Tacoma and Port
land. "I owe my present position to her and
I would readily go throuph the same
disgrace all over again for her. I hope
that my wealthy relatives will come to
my rescue In this emergency and after
ward Claire and myself can begin life
anew.
"My father Is J. D. Plerrepont, a shoe
manufacturer of Cincinnati. For three
years I waa private physician to W. Guy
