covered In the original plans for the
big district sewer that Is to be laid In

City Engineer's department, decided to
take the opposite action. The River

the proper territory. In that case

protest and the council win nave 10

FIRE-FIGHTING COST LIGHT
10 Forest Blazes Near Medford Cost
Only $15 Kaon to Pnt Out.
MEDFORD. Or.. Aug. 10. (Special.)
Modern fire protective methods have re
duced the cost of extinguishing foreat
fires on private land to 113 a tire. Ten
fires within the Jurisdiction of the Jack
son County Fire Patrol Association have
burned so -far this year and have cost
1130 to put out. These fires have covered
HO acres, or 10.000 feet of timber.
The Patrol Association has six wardens
to cover 1SO.0OO acres. It Is. a co-operative
organisation, whose sole purpose Is
to put out forest fires on the land of Its
memters. It was organised only a few
months ago. and consequently only a
small acreage has as yet been lie ted
with It for protection. The association
patrols the timber land and thus catches
a ilre before It has well started. A pro
rata charge is made the members.
Of the 10 flres started on private timber
only one was incendiary, two were set
by careless campers, and seven were
flred by lightning. The rorests are very
dry now and the season for conflagra
tions hss only begun.

That the expenditure of 1100,000

Sluslaw bar haa been or considerable
benefit already. Is shown In the fact
that for the first time the lumber
schooners Hugh Hogan and Pausallto.
plying between this port and San Fran
cisco, on their trip last week carried
capacity loads, aggregating more than
1.000.000 feet.
Before the work on the bar began
last yesr, these boats would each take
sbout 300.000 feet of lumber here, and
then go to ports farther south to com
plete their cargo. Now the water Is
deep enough to permit of their carry
ing full loads.

lieved that too much scaffolding weight
on the new wall caused the accident.
Workmen were preparing to lay the
top layer of brick when the upper five
feet of the entire length of the south
wall fell outward carrying scaffolding
and workmen to the ground a distance
or about. 25 feet. No one was fatally
Injured. James Lowry, of Centralla,

Southern ' Pacific, Rock Island and
Gould Lines Involved Santa
Fe Escape BoLh Sides
Ieny Serious Conflict.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10. (Special.)
Following the refusal of officials to ac
cede to the demands of shop employes,
notice has been served upon at least
three Western railroads that existing
working agreements fixing the scale of
wages, hours of labor and other matters,
will be cancelled at the expiration of 30
day a These notices were served upon
the three railroads by representatives
of the shop employes a week ago, but
both the railroads and the men hava suc
ceeded In keeping it quiet.
The roads that have been served with
the notice are the Southern Pacific, the
Rock Island and those known as the
Gould lines. 'The Santa Fe has escaped
entanglement as the result or recent
agreements that were entered into by
the comapny and the men.
Situation Is Unusual.
Both company officials and represen
tatives of the dissatisfied employes in
sist there will be no strike and that one
Is wholly improbable. However, It la ad
mitted the situation is not satisfactory,
and the serving of the SOnlay notice of
the abrogation of the working agreement
has never been resorted to by either
party except in rare Instances.
In the Southern Pacific ehops alone
there are 800. men involved In the pend
ing disaffection. In the shops of the
Gould lines and the Rock Island almost
equal numbers are employed, so that at
least 20.000 railroad employes are di
rectly concerned.
However, it became known oday that
the various crafts have served notice
that the SO-day period will expire early
in September. The employes Insist that
the company recognize the Federation In
making any negotiations.
Officials Prepare for Siege.
Among the demands of the shop em
ployes are shorter hours and higher
wages, and also that they shall have
representation on the management ot the
hospital, to the support or which each
employe contributes. This latter de
mand, however, according to an official
or the Federation. Is merely Included to
be traded for other concessions. The
men themselves, he declared, have little
desire to participate In the management
of the hospital.
It is said the Southern Pacific officials
are preparing for a siege at the main
shops at Sacramento. Cots are being
moved .Into some of the buildings In or
der to accommodate railroad officials and
any force of men that would be em
ployed In preventing violence and pro
tecting property In case the strike Is
declared. A fence across a sand lot south
of the depot haa also been built, and
three strands of barbed wire strung
across the top or it. Similar changes are
taking place at other shops on the South
ern Pacific
