Eckhardt left the door of the bank.
Newhall err.Dtted his revolver at the
fleeing rider, who. as he fell from the
bicycle, turned on his knees and fired
back. Newhall. having; exhausted his
ammunition, rushed Into a saloon, bor
rowed another revolver and resumed
the chase.

Intruder Makes Signs.
The noon lull was on at the bank
when Eckhardt entered. Fred Alt. a
clerk, was at the window. President
Newhall -was seated at a table. count
Ins; some paper, and Roger Newhall
was In the bark of the room. Eckhardt
advanced with the revolver levelled.
and without speaking; a word, made a
scooping; motion to Indicate that he
wanted money, of which a' quantity
was dlsplaved In racks behind the
counter. Before Alt had time to say
a word. H. II. Newhall seized a re
volver from under the counter and
fired at Eckhardt. The bullet entered
the plastered wall above the would-be
robber s bead. Then Eckhardt fired, his
bullet cra.hln throna-h the irla.s at
the level of Newhall' heart. The thick
lass was splintered and scattered all
over the counter. The bullet fell to
the floor Inside and was picked up
later.
Then Eckhardt turned ta run. and
Newhall Bred a;aln. This bullet struck
the top pf the street door, and re
bounded to the partition, about three
feet from the first. The elder Newhall
surrendered the pistol to his son. who
took up the chase as already related,

speeding- wheelman.

of the bullet fired at the robber came
through the partition, struck the lid of
a box of drills on his bench and re
bounded to the other side of the room.
where it lodged In a partition and was
dug; out by Hendrickson. as a memento.
Patrolman Holterman took his pris
oner to the police station, where he wa
turned over to Detective Ilellyer and
JJaloney. for questioning aa to hi sup
posed partner. Many witnesses of the
attempted holdup said that another
man waited outside, but Eckhardt was
emphatic la his declaration that be had
undertaken the raid alone, and told
story that seems to eliminate the prob
ability of his having had .an accora
pll-e.
The prisoner made no attempt to
deny his act. He said that he had
machine shop at 352 Gllsan street and
had been experimenting; for a long
time with a device for mason' use. and
other Inventions. He got Into financial
difficulties to the extent of f00 and
needed $200 Immediately to avert bank
ruptcy. he said. He had tried every
where to borrow this amount, without
auccess. Yesterday morning: he went
on his bicycle to the National Iron
Foundry. East Eighth and Salmon
streets, to try to borrow the needed
funds. He failed, and on the way back
passed the bank, where, he says, the
Impulse seised him to take the money
by force. He walked back and forth
several times, getting; up his courage,
and then went In. He said that all he
intended to take was the t-00 which
he needed In his business.
Past Record Is Good.
Eckhardt ha a wife and two young;
children, and his past record Is clear,
o far as known. He Is a stolid, decent-looking
chap, and It la apparent
that financial worry ha to some extent
unbalanced his mind. He seemed almost
childlike In his criminal Inexperience,
and asked the Jailer what he supposed
would be done with him. His wife and
children are at present at Tualatin. For
the present he Is held on charges of
discharging- firearms In the city limits
and assault with a deadly weapon. His
cue will b taken up direct by the
ajrand Jury, which meets today.
While convinced that Eckhardt was
acting; alone, the detectives are still
looking out for a possible associate.
Mrs. Hattle All bach, living In second
story room across from the bank, re
ported that she had seen two men
loitering about the bank at 7:10 Sun
day night, and again about midnight.
They peered into every window, she
aid. and then went to a back lot.
where they engaged In an argument,
taking money out of their pocket and
counting It. Mrs. Allebach saw Eck
hardt when he was arrested, and says
he waa one of the two men. but aa he
haa confessed the crime and denies
having been near the bank before. It Is
though that she Is mistaken.
The East Side Bank was held up and
robbed at ( o'clock on the evening of
December 7. ISOi, and li.00 was

PRISONERS DIG TUNNEL
Eleven Thousand Pounds of Dyna
mite Will Bo Exploded by Elec
tricity to Loosen Earth for
County Rock Crusher.
Eleven thoussnd pounds of powerful
explosive will lift 70.000 cubic yard of
rock, weighing 1M.130 ton, at the Linn
ton rockplle. at t o'clock this afternoon.
A hole as big aa two city lot and more
than i:o feet deep at the maximum, will
appear In the hillside after the charge
ha been fired and the rock removed.
Tht will not be soon, however, as It Is
estimated that the handling of the
loosened rock will keep Superintendent
Brla-gs colony of about 100 vrlsonera
busy for a year, feeding the broken mass
Into the rock crusher.
During the explosion nearly 100 prison
ers, having been marshalled out of their
quarters, will be herded at a aafe point
at a distance from the scene of the ex
plosion, carefully guarded by well-armed
deputies.
The blast, which is said to be the
largest ever fifed In this vicinity, la al
ready In place in a great tunnel that the
city 1 prisoners have been digging for
several months. An the wires are In

packing the tunnel to hold the force of

which will report faith fully any disturb
ance of the delicate mechanism which
is to fire the shot.
A charge of 000 pounds was fired a
little over a year ago, breaking up 63.
000 cubic yards of rock, which has kept
the stone-crusher at work ever since.
Finding the visible supply of material
about exhausted the County Court has
authorized the firing of the big shot to
morrow.
Preparatory to the blast the prisoners
drove a tunnel S feet long into the hill
side and from It drifted four branches.
each about 45 feet long. In each of
these three charges Rave been placed. 1
graduated according to the weight of
material on top and all will be fired
lmultaneoualy by electricity.
Nice calculation regulate the amount
of the respective charges, which are by
no means uniform. In one chamber, over
which tb rock extends 1-0 feet upward
to the surface, the heaviest charge will
be placed, while those nearest the portal
ill be much ugnter.
The material In the mine la rhyollte
rock, which has a specific gravity of
nearly three times that of water. From
It la made the crushed product which
Is turned out at Linnton and used upon
the county roads. Mcmbera of the
County Court and other officials win be
present and one of them will be dele
gated to start the dynamo which will set
off the explosion. The expert say that
if the charge is well calculated, there
111 be little to see. as the hillside will
rlsa slightly and then settle back to
ita plaoe.
When the former blast waa set off the
event attracted the attention of scien
tific papers all over the civilized world
and a the present one is to be nearly
naif ain aa large. It probably will call
for even more attention.

.'JUDGE ENDS WRANGLING
G an ten be In Takes Request for In
junction Under AdyUement.
Broadway Foe Denies That
Animosity Prompts Suits.
Appearing before Presiding- Judge
Gantenbeln to argue against an in
junction against Frank Klernan and
others to prevent further obstruction
of the sale of the Broadway bridge
bonds yesterday. Attorney Ralph R.
Duniway declared that the city's com
plaint is false and characterized the
proceedings as unfair and contrary to
the principles of American cltlsenshlp.
Assistant City Attorney Benbow de
clared that the motives of the multi
plicity of suits brought by the Klernan
Interests were not In the Interest of
the taxpayers, as they alleged, but
merely to tie up the Broadway bridge
indefinitely and to injure the credit of
the city.
In their arguments, the two attorneys
Indulged frequently In personalities
ending with Attorney Benbow apply
ing the "short and ugly word" to Mr.
Duniway. Judge Gantenbeln demanded
order frequently during tha two hours'
controversy.
In his opening statement Assistant
City Attorney Benbow said that al
though four different suits had been
started by Klernan and his associates,
the bridge obstructionist did not ap
pear to show a tendency to stop and
were, in fact, making threats to begin
more suits. He said that letters had
been written and reports had been cir
culated from time to time with an
object of defeating the bridge project,
that the bond buyers had received such
letters and reports. In which It was
attempted to be shown that tha bonds
were worthless.
Suits Deemed Menace.
He declared that to begin more suits
would be frivolous In view of the de
cisions that had been made already by
the State Circuit Court and the State
Supreme Court.
"If the suits have been conducted
properly, there is no good reason why
theae people should endeavor to tie up
the bridge by threatening to start more
suits," said Mr. Benbow. "If they
bring more suit they will be for the
purposes of annoyance and delay. These
suits are not made In good faith. The
letters and telegrams that they caused
to be sent to the bond buyers were ma
licious and did not contain the full
statements of facta
"They declare that these suits were
started in the Interest of the taxpayers.
Why are they, then, trying to force the
cltv to lose the first Installment of
',bo"?f b.?d.!fta""S
to pay off this first bonded Indebted
ness even should they succeed In kill
ing the bridge project. Is that In the
Interest of the taxpayers?
Court's Intervention Asked.
"Counsel saya that to Issue an in
junction against the defendahts re
straining them from hindering further
the progress of the bond sale Is con
trary to the principle of personal lib
erty. Many of those Included, with
Klernan as defendants have made it
known that they are willing to abide
.by the Judgment of the State Supreme
Court and will not participate further
in attempt to hold up the bridge proj
ect. They are willing to have the order
made provided that costs are not en
tered against them. All of the mem
bers of the Port of Portland Commis
sion have taken this position. Others
have consented to the Injunction with
that understanding. But those who
have been against the bridge project
from the first have shown no disposi
tion to stop the litigation. Therefore,
we believe that it Is time now to have
an order from this court to put at en
end for all time to further suits against
the city for the purpose of defeating
I tha Sroadwav brldee.
I courts. He said the bond buyers could
not be expeoted to take the bonds until
a decision is given by the United
States Supreme Court.
Animosity Is Denied.
"If the 'decision Is in favor of Mr.
Klernan, the bonds would be worth
less," said Attorney Duniway. "That
is the reason you are not getting a
market for the bonds. We deny that
we have made false statements In our
letters and telegrams to the bond
buyers. You cannot ascribe that a a
reason why the sale of the bonds has
been impeded. On the other hand, you
are trying to bilk the people in getting
them to buy bonds that are worth
less. The statements we have made
about the whole situation were truth
fuL You have made the misrepresenta
tions yourselves. Why. the sworn state
ment of any citizen of Portland Is en
titled to more respect than any state
ment of a city official."
Judge Gantenbeln took the case under
advisement and announced that he
would make a decision either on Thurs
day or Saturday.
