Cuba Imports meat at lla stone from Robert Wakefield A Co-'s Account Not Itemlxed aa Demanded, Attorney Is Rebuffed. Major Absent. "I do not sea how we can pay a bill that has never been ren dered, and aa far aa I am concerned you can go ahead, crack your whip and go as far as you want was the shot hurled at Attorney Maddux, represent ing Robert Wakefield db Co, builders of the Mount Tabor reservoirs, yester day. Mr. Wilcox was presiding at tbe Water Board meeting In the absence of Mayor Rushlight, and thus expressed himself In giving his private opinion of a claim for $414,000. unaccompanied by details, and It was sustained by the other members. Suit probably will be brought In the Circuit Court by the contractors. Just before this Incident, the' Schaw Batcher Company, contractors on Bull Rua conduit No. 2, died claim to extras on that work, which ran over $1,000,000, In the sum of $179,000. Mr. Wilcox characterised this one as "preposter ous, but Attorney McNary, appearing for the company, explained that his clients believed they could justify tholr claims In the eyea of the Board mem ben If given a chance. Conaequently, a apeclal meeting may be held to thresh out the details. Chief Engineer Clarke recommended that $3000 be paid for the extras for which the contrac tors are asking $179,000. At a recent meeting the water Board had asked the Wakefield Company to file a detailed statement. but Instead of that. It filed what Mr. Wilcox termed "a alx-llne letter," sim ply claiming a balance due It on the Mount Tabor reservoirs of $414,000, giv ing no explanations whatever. "Here Is a claim for $414,000." said C F. Wlegand. the Deputy Auditor who walta on the Board, as he handed It to Mr. Wilcox. "That's more than I've got with me," said Mr. Wilcox. Attorney Maddux, speaking for the company, waa than asked why he had not filed a detailed statement. "I didn't know the Board wanted one." said he, "WalL when yon are selling; groceries you send an Itemized account, don't your asked Mr. Wilcox. "Why, here's a little six-line letter, just asking for $414,000; why. those black hand artists write more than that In making their demands." Mr. Wilcox remarks were followed by similar expressions by other mem bers of the Board, and Mr. Maddux became considerable exercised. He wanted to know whether there waa any use In furnishing an Itemised account, or whether It would be best to go Into court now and seek an adjustment. It waa then that Mr. Wilcox announced how he felt about It, He said he would not give any ground whatever for court action: that the charter binds the Board to protect the city's Interests at all hasards, and that the contractors "can gt justice at the hands of the Board and no more." As In the case of tha Schaw-Batcher ComDany aa to the conduit, Robert Wakefield Co. blame Chief Engineer Clarke for their troubles. They said that they will be able to prove their claims In court. They may proceed in that manner or submit a detailed ao count of their expenditures. The claims of the Schaw-Batcher Company are so vastly different than the recommendations made by Engi neer Clarke that It was said by the members that they doubted whether an adjustment csn bo made. The claims are for extra materials said to have been used In the construction of the big conduit which connects with the Mount Tabor reservoirs, over which the Wakefield trouble occurred. The Board authorised tho superin tendent to Investigate allegations to the effect that tbe Metzgar plant. In the Reservoir Park dlatrlct. Is owned In part by private citizens. Several residents were present who said so, but Mr. Metagar denied It saying tbey wanted only to stir up trouble. WOMAN SHOOTS ROBBER AIM IS TRUE WHEN INTRCIE3Vg UGUT IS SEEX, Bloodstains on Carpet Tell of Wound to Burglar Who Escape From Neighborhood. When Mrs. B. O. Edwards, wife of a seafaring man, living at 409 Yamhill street, awoke at 1 o'clock yesterday morning and saw a burglar looking over tho foot of her bed. she drew a revolver from under her pillow and chased him out of the house, firing two shots. Later, when her bare feet struck a molat spot on the carpet, she knew that at least one of her shots had taken effect The petite marswoman acquired skill with firearms by shooting pack rats while living on a homestead. Detectives Mallet and Moloney, who made an Investigation yesterday, are looking for. a young, medium-sized man, wearing A grav cap and nursing a bul let wound. They believe the Intruder was planning an attack on a realdenoa next door and missed hla way, Mrs. Edwards was awakened by a Tash of light In hsr eyes, and saw the Intruder at the foot of her bed. holding What she thinks was a cigar lighter. "When he saw I was awake." she says. 'he backed out Into the living room and I followed him. Two girl friends were sleeping In another cham ber and t thought he was going toward them. I thought of the revolver under my pillow and went back and got It. He was still fading me when I fired, and he uttered an oath as the bullet struck. Then he ran 'oward me and through the door by which he had en tered. I fired ajraln as he slammed tho door. Then I sank down on tbe floor and the girls brought water to re vive ma."

The City Council also has considered purchasing the plant, and when Mr. Nolan makes his next visit the water works ques tion probably will be decided one way or the other.

Court In Trial of ex-Sergeant Cole Arso Forbids Criticism of Administration. Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday warned Deputy District Attorney Page, appearing for tha state, and E. 8. J. McAllister, representing; the defendant, in the trial of B. W. Cole, a former po lice sergeant, on a charge of grafting from women of the underworld, that he will not permit personalities to be Indulged In or aspersions to be cast on the city administration or any persons during; the progress of the hearing. He intimated that the attorneys would be punished severely for contempt of court If they overstepped the mark. The remarks of the Judge were oc casioned by frequent and bitter clashes between Attorneys Page and McAllis ter. Mr. McAllister accused the Dep uty Prosecutor of seeking to Injeot prejudice Into the minds of the jurors In his opening statement and referred to v aldemar Beton. who Is special prosecutor, as "the hired man of Mayor Rushlight sent here to assist In the perseoutlon of his defendant." Mr. McAllister objected to Mr. Page being allowed to tell the Jurors that tho State would prove that tho defend ant had taken several bribes before and after the one al leged in the indictment, con tending that each of these alleged bribe taking's was a crime In Itself. making Cole liable to Indictment. He asked that the Prosecutor be confined In his opening statement to telling what the state hoped to prove with reference to the particular alleged bribe which led to the indictment. The Jury was dlsmlssesd while the attorneus argued the point of law and was recalled at the end of an hour and one-half, when Judge Morrow had de rided In favor of the state. Continu ing his statement, Mr. Page referred to the indictment of A. M. Cox. Chief of Police during the Simon regime. Mr. McAllister objected to this and was sustained by the court. It was In the progress of the verbal warfare which ensued over this objection that Judge Morrow warned tho attorneys.

The' Klamath Indians, numbering more than 1000, are chafing; under the guardianship Imposed upon them by the united States Government, accord ing to Clayton Kirk, son of Jesse Kirk, sx-progresslve chief of the Klamath tribe, and Edward Ball, two educated members of the tribe now In Portland In connection with cases being tried in tbe Federal Court. "The Klamath Indians are not al lowed any voioo in the distribution and sales of the surplus land on their reservation, such as is allowed by the treaty made between the Government and the Klamath Indians on October 16. 1864." said Mr. Kirk. "The Booth-Kelly Lumber Company, formerly the Oregon Military Boad Grant Company, has received $108,000 In lieu of 111.000 acres allowed them by the Government in July, 1864, prior to the laying out of the Klamath reser vation. We have been Ignored entire ly, having had no voice in the matter cf the disposing of the land, and hav ing received not any of the money ob tained from the sale of our land. Seventy per cent of our tribe is edu cated and the other 10 per cent is civilised. ' "We feel that we are entitled to our rights as promised: we are educated and then humiliated by being ignored In the matters of public Interest to Indians; we want a chance to let the publio at large know the circumstances which our tribe has tq deal with." Mr. Ball said that his fellow tribes man had covered all the points that he wished to mention. Both men spoke highly of the Klamath Indian agent. Edson Watson, who, they said, has done all that he can to stop liquor traffic among the Klamath Indians, and has given them a square deal when they have called upon him. Mr. Watson has been in charge of the reservation a little over one year. ROTARY CLUBT0 ELECT Banquet to Precede Programme at Multnomah Hotel Tonight. .
