who led the part? tnat went to Seattle
on ths special train Friday mornlnit.
I feel that I am not lacklna In proper
loyalty to Portland when I aay that tha

the recent Rose Festival. Owners of

Interest In the Totlatrh than many
owners or I'ortland bulldlnsra took
The Rose Festival. Many of the bis;
structures were beautifully Illuminated.
Some of them were outlined completely
by rows of electric Hants. The beat

All City Decorated.
W. J. Ilnfmann. secretary of the Com

land can profit from the example set
by Seattle In street and building dec

a greater decree in this detail, say alL
"While none of the automobiles in
the Seattle parade was as elaborately
decorated as were the prise-wtnnera In
the Portland automobile parade, they
nad a larce number or decorated ma

to take more Interest." said Mr. Hot-

Thelr floats, of course, were not to
be compared with the electric floats
used In the two parades here.
"In the nrst place Seattle had mora

SPAN OPINION AWAITED
aaawaawa. f
Greater South Portland Bridge Body
Vnceruln About Election.
The committee of the Greater South
Portland Bridge project la "waiting for
the opinion of the City Attorney as to
whether the bridge proposal ran be
placed on the ballot at the special char
ter election January as an Initiative
measure authorized by the council or
by petition. It had been decided to have
the measure authorised by petition and
be voted on at the aam time the com
mission charter la submitted, thereby
saving expense and time, but doubt has
arisen as to whether It can go on tne
ballot as an Initiative measure. If the
City Attorney decldea that It can be
made an Initiative measure petitions
will be circulated.
The committee baa listed the precincts
that opposed the bridge and alms to
meet this opposition In the next cam
paign. It has been found, according to
the report of the committee, that the
large sum asked for at the June election
waa the principal reason the bridge lost
at the polls. The committee will not
be called together by Chairman Day
RafTetv until September, as it is ex
pected that details for the next vote and
campaign will be setuea ny tnat time.
the scene of the oil tank Are In which
Fire Chief Campbell was killed, but the
Standard Oil Comapny will nrobablv be
notified to move Its tanks within six
months. The City Attorney wrote to
the manager of the comapny. asking by
wnat autnority the tanks are being main
tained, and received In reply a reauest
tor a personal interview. The Standard
Oil Company is said to have been notl-
ned that It Is storing oil on- East Water
street contrary to the city ordinance.
'o Permit Is Found.
Before the committee yesterday after
noon Mr. Grant aald that one of his
deputies and Deputy City Auditor Grutze
looked through the city records for a
permit granting the Standard Oil Com
pany the right to maintain the tanks,
and failed to find one. Mr. Grant said
he had not had time to look through
the records personally, but that he had
heard this corporation obtained a Derm it
from the old city of East Portland.
Members of the committee, which con
sists of Councllmen Baker, Burgard and
Wutkins. expressed the opinion that the
tanks now In existence were erected
since East Portland became a Dart of
the present municipality.
Acting Fire Chief Laudenklos and City
Fire Marshal Roberts were present at
yesterday's meeting, as was Attorney
w. M. Cake, -representing the Union
Oil Company. Mr. Roberta showed the
committee a ground plan of the arrange
ment of the Standard s oil storage tanks
in Seattle. They have been built in a
pit. away from all costly buildings, and
ire surrounded by a reinforced concrete
wall 29 feet high, he said. He thought
the arrangement a good one, and recom
mended it for Portland.
Restricted Plan Opposed.
It waa suggested that two or three
districts where the tanks could bo built
might be selected, but to this the objec
tion was made that property owners
would put the property so high that It
would be beyond a reasonable figure.
Chairman Baker Insisted that all the
oil companies ought to be treated alike.
He said the Crystal Oil Company, owned
by Balfour, Guthrie A Co waa operating
from headquarters at the foot of Seven
teenth atreet, and said It had been re
ported to him that a tank had been con
structed there. Fire Marshal Roberta
aaM there were no tanks, and only a
small building.
City Attorney Grant said be did not
favor the granting of special permits
for the construction of buildings or
tanks, because when the Council wishes
to revoke the permit, the owners of
the property take the case Into court
nd In some Instances obtain damages
from the city to the amount that the
buildings are worth.
As an Instance of this," he said, "just
watch the fur fly when the Council at
tempts to revoke the special permits for
the use of streets here In the city.
The committee granted the Mount
Hood Brewing Company the privilege of
constructing two fuel oil tanks, to hold
carload each, at Marlon avenue and
East Ninth street. In Sellwood. Per
mission was also given to the Warren
Construction Compsny to construct a
flux oil tank at East Salmon and Water
streets. This tank will be for the storing
of asphaltum.
1 5 Warriors to Fight for Portland at
Rochester Conclave.

laden with literature concerning- the
advantages of holding the encampment

While they do not expect to win the
1912 honors, they expect a favorable
vote for 1913 or 1914.
Portland entered, the race for the
Grand Army reunion last year and the

since that the city wants to be selected

vertising with the delegates for dis
tribution among the crowds attending

SPAN CRASHES UNDER CAR
A. Kadderlr and Five Others Ex
perience Narrow Escape.
While comlnr from Welch's rfotel near
Mount Uood, Sunday, the automobile
driven by A. A. Kadderly crashed
through the decking; of a short bridge
on the Mount Hood road near the Mc-
Intyre Hill. The machine, containing;
Ave persons, retted on the heavy tim
bers and hung; there, barely escaping
dropping Into the ravine. The autoists
jumped from the car. and In half ' an
hour the machine waa lifted from the
wrecked bridge to solid ground. It waa
found that the engine was not disabled.
More than 160 automobiles went over
the bridge Saturday and Sunday, many
of which were heavier than Mr. Kad
derly "s car. The decking of the bridge
gave way aa the machine reached the
center, and only the bridge timbers held
It up. With the assistance of Elijah
Coalman, Mount Hood guide, who was
In another machine, and others the auto
mobile was lifted onto the ground
Fourteen other automobiles were de
layed by the wreck.

Kadderly crashed through the bridge.
If It had reached the bridge first it
would probably have gone to the bottom
of the ravine, as It weighed a third
more than Mr. Kadderly a machine.
"While the water situation In Port
land was much better last night than
It waa a week ago. It does not yet
justify the Water Board In restoring
permission to sprinkle lawns In the
evening, according to Superintendent
Dodge. The shortage of the reser
voirs yesterday morning was 11.200.000
gallons, and last night 11,700.000 gal

Pumps and Boilers for New Fire-
boat May Be Purchased Soon.
Although he has refused unt.l now
to sign the contract for the pumps
and boilers of the proposed new fire
boat. Mayor Rushlight said last night

contract for the entire boat. I under

unforeseen should happen, and the con
tract for the boat proper should be
delayed, we would have the equipment
on our bands."
