STREET COMMITTEE ACTS Washington County Seat Loses In light to Compel Railway to Ex tend to Town Clause of Franchise May B Changed. Hlllsboro. through lt representa tives, made a hard fight for compli ance with tha original franchise of ths United Railway Company, which re quired a line t be built to that town, but lost before the street committee or the City Council yesterday afternoon. If the main body arts In accordance with Its recommendations, the clauses la this regard will be repealed and the company will not hare to spend the necessary money to enter the Wash ington Cminty seat. Ir. J. P. Tsmlenle. president of the Httlaboro Board .of Trade, and N. H. Alexander. Its secretary, were present to plead for compliance with the orig inal terms of the franchise. They de clared that the rompany should be forced to build at least a cut-off from Its main line projected to Tillamook from either Hanks or Olencoe to HUIs boro. to place Illllsboro In direct com munication wtththe coast and to af ford meana of transporting freight, particularly rock, for the roads that are being constructed In Washington County. Expense Deemed Absurd. C. M. Carey, of the lecal department, and" Chief Engineer Wlckersham de clared that It would be absurd to ex pend 1100.000 to construct a cut-off. as suggested by the HlllsDoro represenia tlves. when, they asserted, there would be no new territory tapped and no ao dltlonal nassencer or freight business for the company. Both contended that It Is a far better proposition ror fort land and ail neighboring sections for the company to push Its line to the coast, thus opening an entirely new territory nd affording: direct com munication to the coast for Portland. Dr. Taralesle and Mr. Alexander agreed that It Is a good enterprise lor the company to push It coast line, but they maintained that the company should also be compelled to comply with the provisions of the original Uni ted Railway Company franchise, call ing for a road Into Hlllsboro. "Of coarse, we realise that the com pany does not now desire to build this line." said Mr. Alexander. "but the peo ple of Illllsboro can see no reason why they should not build It. The present owner of the franchise accepted It with all of Its clauses, and they should be compelled to comply with this pro vision, as well as the others. We bar no disposition to fight this company; on the contrary, we want to sea It rush Its line to the coast, but we want It to build at least a cat-off. so that we ran cava the same convenience In get ting to the coast that the people of Portland will have. We also need this line to handle tha freight of th dls trlct." Cood Roads Flay Part. Dr. Tamlesla explained that It la costing iSOoO a mile at present to Im prove th roada In Washington County, because of th long and tedious haul and that this I on reason why th Una. as originally projected. Is needed. After a long discussion. Councilman Mclnnls moved that an ordinance, which was befor th committee, b passed. It repeala th provisions re ferred to. The vote of the member waa unanlmoua. Conndlmen Annand. Menefe and KoMl expressed them selves as being of the belter that Port land would not be benefited by forc ing th company to construct a cut-off. Mr. Annand said be doubted the power of the Council to enforce the Illllsboro feature of the franchise, anyway. Joint Track Permits Wait. Ordinances granting authority to th Portland Railway. Light Power Com pany, the Oregon Electric Company and the United Railways Company to Inter change In the use of certain tracks on Fecond. Stark. Tenth and Salmon streets, were laid over until Friday aft ernoon. Then the committee will hold Its last regular meeting for the pres ent term, as ' ty Attorney Grant has held that the Council could not. by or dinance, permit the laying of a third rail on Stark street, from Second to Fifth, as. he said, that would amount to an amendment to the company's franchise. It Is the plan of the heads of th streetcar companies nsmed to relieve th congestion that at present prevails by operating a loop system, whereby many of the cars of the Portland Rail way. Light Power Company will be run over the tracks on Stark street. Mr. Carey said that he believed that, soma day. th Council would have to force the companies concerned to adopt a uniform plan of handling the down town traffic He was not. he said, de sirous of hurrying this subject, but he felt that It should have earnest con. lderatton. Chairman Annand said ha favored the plan. LEBANON FETE ATTRACTS Commercial Club Antoists to Attend Strawberry Festival.

Stevenson, retained by the defendants In the case of John Cole and Ellen Paraxoo and Joseph Jackson and Lou Wilson. Indians from the Klamath reservation, accused by the United States Government of hav ing entered into affinity marriages, has Indicated that the defense, will be that the Federal Government has no law designating Indian affinity marriages as crime.

The Government has started wholesale prosecution of Klamath Agency Indians because of their failure to marry In accordanace with the rules and regulations followed by whites. Should Mr. Stevenson win his point Federal officers say It will be disas trous to the. morals of the wards of the United States Government, Pharmacist Who Applied Lo . tion to Mosquito Bite No't Licensed, Is Testified. SKIN - GRAFTING NEEDED O. E. Goodwin In Snlt Agalntt Rowe at Martin Lays Months of Pain and Operations to Clerk Found Unfit Fonr Times. Four times doemed unfit to practice pharmacy, Q. H. Hall, a drug clerk em ployed, by Rowe & Martin, was pointed to before a Jury in th State Circuit Court yesterday as being responsible for the searing of flesh from the arm of Orton E. Goodwin by the mlsappll cation of a caustic acid Instead of a lotion to check swelling and pain caused by a mosquito bite. Goodwin, a newspaper man, is suing the drug firm for $23,000 damages. Further adding to the alleged ac countability of the apothecary. Dr. M. J. Denny testified that he had advised Hall to use either boraclc acid or a one per cent solution of trl-kresoL Instead, the crippled suitor testified, the drug clerk, as Dr. Denny turned his back, applied full-strength tri-kersoL Goodwin awoke the next morning to find his arm. burned black, the skin gone from th wrist to a point below th shoulder. . Pozzl Testifies to Rejection. Frank C Pozzl, secretary of the State Board of Pharmacy, testified that Hall had been rejected four times by the Board of Examiners. This was a dl rect contradiction of the testimony of Hall, who declared under oath that ha had a state license to practice phar macy, and that he had been granted a permit by Commissioner Lowery. of the Stats Board of Pharmacy. No record of Issuance of a permit to Hall was re corded, said Mr. Pozzl, and It waa Im possible for Mr. Lowery to have Issued one. Mr. Lowery waa appointed after Hall treated Goodwin. Goodwin, on bis own behalf, testified to th circumstances surrounding the accident, which nearly cost him the use of his arm, and caused him months of severe pain. He said he was employed at that time as a reporter, and that after completing his day's work about 1 o'clock In the morning of July 17. 10. he bad gone with another re porter, who has since died, to the drugstore of Rowe A Martin to get something to soothe a severe mosquito bite. Doctor's Advice Not Heeded. . Goodwin went to Hall, to whom Goodwin showed his arm. and asked It he oould apply something that would ease th pain. As the clerk was look ing at the arm. Dr. M. J. Denney en tered the store, and the clerk asked blm If blood poisoning bad not de veloped In the arm. After looking at th arm. Dr. Denney testified yesterday, he stood a short distance from Goodwin and told the clerk that he should apply boraclc acid. but th clerk objected, as the bottle containing th acid In solution was empty. The clerk also objected to an other preparation suggested by the doctor, who says ha told htm to use a 1 per cent solution of trl-kresoL Then the doctor left the room. and. according to Goodwin, the clerk poured the pure trl-kresol on bis arm. For some time Goodwin stayed at bis rooms, and whenever the doctors re moved the bandages. It was found necessary to cut off some flesh. At last he was sent to the hospital, where 120 square Inchn of skin, from the person of A. M. Grllley. physical director at th Young Men' Christian Association, were grafted to bis arm. Later It waa found necessary to repeat the opera tion, this time the skin being taken from another part of Goodwin's body. Later an Internal operation was made necessary and Is supposed to have been caused Indirectly by the trouble with th arm. Drug- Clerk Doesn't Pass. Hall, the drug clerk, was placed os the stand by Goodwin's attorney. Dan Malarkey. and asked to tell his version of th case. He said be was acting under the Instructions of Dr. Denney at the time he applied the trl-kresol, and that he had a permit giving him authority to serve as drug clerk. This was denied by Mr. Pozzl, as stated above. The witness said that the law pro hibits Issuance of certificates by mem bers of the State Board of Pharmacy, that privilege being limited to the secretary, who slone bad the necessary blanks. He further took Issue with Hall's testimony by declaring that Commissioner Lowery had been ap pointed after the date of the accident. and was not In office to permit Hall to have acted as clerk at the time Good win's arm was injured. Photographs of Goodwin s arm. as It appeared while under treatment, were submitted as evidence. ( JAPS WILL PLAY TODAY rMVERSITT OF KEIO MXK TO MEET MULTNOMAH.

Is requested to address II. J. Sherrett. 254 East Six teenth street, or telephone East 234. Fandom at Random PITCHER Jack Hal la. the Louisville castoff, mounted the slab for the Angels again yesterday. He succeeded In disposing of the Sacramento trouba dora quite handily. Last week Halla flagged the Oaks in his initial appear ance In the league, and yesterday's victory gives him two wins In two starts, which is pretty good sailing. If Hen Berry's other Importations only do half as well, the Angels will yet get Into the running. Bill Rodgers fractured ankle will keep the gingery Beaver out of the fracas for at least a month. In the meantime. Jack Barry Is holding down the Job nicely. McCredle. however, does not Intend to be caught napping, and has wires out for another tnflelder who may either play the regular posi tion until Rodgers recovers, or may nil the utility role played by Barry. The Seals got away with the opening game against the Vernon team, and thereby maintained a superiority over Hogan's crowd which has existed for two or three seasons. Last year Hap- plcus and his team-mates almost won a series from the San Francisco club. On that occasion, the Hooligans took the first three games, but Mohler and Danny Long's tribe came right back at them and trimmed them in the re maining four games. "Hap" simply cannot break- the San Francisco hoodoo. ' When the Roadsters rambled across the rubber five times In the seventh frame yesterday, and the result was chalked up on the bulletin boards down town, the fans actually warnred up and let out a whoop or two. It shows they are really commencing to get In terested In the Northwestern games, and perhaps some of them will go to the ball park now. Instead of awaiting the returns at the score boards.
