Two remaining sections of a wooden
truss on which the lift spans of the I
Harriman bridge will be built, were

material interruption to river traffic. I
The big; steamer Beaver was shifted
from the O. A C. ddck, above the ea.t .
approach of the Steel bridge, as the (
scows were In position holding the '
truss parts, and though the space be- !
tween the bridges appeared small. Pilot j
Snow swung her Into the stream and 1
backed through the Steel bridge with
out difficulty.
Major Mclndoe, Corps of Engineers,
U. S. A., who was asked by Washington
authorities to Investigate the complaint
made by steam schooner Interests re
garding the height of the truss, said
yesterday that his report had been for
warded and that he does not expect
further action will be taken respecting
the bridge. Besides the truss having
been raised five feet, the river has
fallen so there is more cloarance than
was expected two weeks ago.

Order tor the construction of passen

service over the Harrlman llneH and the
Milwaukee Railroad between Portland
and ChieaKO have been placed with
Kantern car manufacture and pending
their completion the operation of O.-W.
R. N. trains No. S and No. 6. between
Omaha and Chicago may continue over

it became necessary to obtain new
equipment because the Milwaukee
tern does not carry fullman cars, while
the Harrlman nystem docs. The Mil
waukee's sleeping-cars are 10 Inches
wider than the standard Pullman ar
and to place cars of both types In one
train would be Impracticable.
According to the terms of the con
tract, the Milwaukee road will provide
one-third of the equipment and the
Harrlman lines two-thirds. Instead of
the standard yellow cars used on the
Mllwaukle lines, the new cars will he
a dark slate color, the same as the reg
ular Pullman coaches
The Milwaukee cars will run through
between Chicago and Portland and thus
introduce into this city for the nrst
time sleeping cars bearing the letter
ing "Chicago. Mllwaus.ee & St. Paul,"
familiar legend In the Middle West.
Some of the Harriman trains between
San Francisco and Chicago run over
the Milwaukee tracks and it Is prob
able that some of this equipment may
be borrowed for the Portland run, so
that the Inauguration of the new serv
es could be hastened.
J. D. Farrell. president of the O.-W".
R. & X. Company, said yesterday that
the contract between his company and
the Milwaukee line had been in exist
ence for several years, but that it never
before had been applied to O.-W. R &
X. trains. He explained that the trans
fer of trains 5 and 6 from the North
western line to the Milwaukee road was
due to a plan to divide the business at
Omaha. .
Other railroad official attributed the
new arrangement to an alleged break
between the Harrlman yst.m and the
Northwestern road, apparently a result
of the alliance recently formed between
the Northwestern and the Northern
Pacific system.
LENTS BANK SUIT QUASHED
Mrs. Thockla Hrlght now ne
Never Cot Yaltic. for Her Note.
Accenting as truth the statement of
Mrs. Theckla Bright, a resident of
Lenta, that she never had received value
of any kind for her note of $1500 found
among the assets of the Mount Scott
Bank of Lents by Receiver Tobin, the
depositors of the bank petitioned Pre
siding Judge Kavanaugh and have been
successful In having dismissed the suit
started against her by Mr. Tobln to
recover on the note. The order of dis
missal was made yesterday on motion
of J. B. and W. A. Cleland. attorneys
for Receiver Tobln. who presented a
petition signed by mor. than three-
fourths of the depositors.
When the attorneys pointed out that
the depositors could not recover any
money from Mrs. Bright, and that,
therefore, their recommendation should
be granted. Judge Kavanaugh gave In
structions for an order of dismissal.
Mrs. Bright affirmed that she gave the
note In exchange for Italian-American
Bank stock. This bank was never
licensed to do business. The stock was,
consequently, never delivered.
The Italian-American Bank was pro
moted by K. X. Myers, president of the
defunct Mount Scott Bank of Lents.
Myers pleaded guilty to a charge of
reoeivlng deposits In the name of the
Mount Scott Bank of Lenta after he
knew It to be In an Insolvent condition,
and waa sentenced by Judge Gatens to
two years In the penitentiary, and was
paroled after spending several weeks
in the County Jail, the parole coming
as a result of the success of Myers'
friends in raising several thousand dol
lars to assist In reimbursing the de
positors of the Mount Scott Bank.

ELKS TO BUILD ARGH
Elaborate Decorative Scheme
Planned for Convention.
WORK MAY BE PERMANENT
Court of Honor Between Stark. Mor
rison, Seventh nnd Fourth to Be
or White Material With Purple
Trimmings Streets to Blaze.
To build a welcome arch across Sixth
street near the Union Station and to
make all the streets leading from the
passenger depots and boat landings re
splendent In purple and white color is
a part of the lecorative scheme being
planned by the Elks' 1912 convention
commission.
The decorating committee at its last
meeting received the suggestion to
build the arch of welcome and consid
ered it favorably, but before definite
steps are taken to include it in the
hjlks decorating programme, it will be
determined whether or not It is to be
of a permanent nature.
When the Elks' National convention
was held at Denver six years a;o a
permanent arch was built and remains
one of the distinct attractions of the
city. The Klks contributed substan
tially to Its payment, the remainder of
the fund being made up by the city and
county authorities and by various firms
and individuals. It is built of steel of
ornamentsl design, and at night is
brightly Illuminated, spelling the word
"Welcome" on the side facing the sta
tion. Members of the Portland lodge be
lieve that some such plan can be ef
fected here in time to have the arch
completed before the convention is
held.
Plans for the court of honor to be
formed by Stark, Seventh, Morrison
andFourth streets, are being made now.
It will be constructed of white material
and purple trimmings. Enough Ameri
can flags, eight by five feet, to deco
rate the entire line of march for the
big parade on Thursday. July 11. have
been ordered. They will be placed on
wires stretched horizontally across the
streets, and will be accompanied by
large banners bearing elk heads and by
miles of purple and white bunting.
The Woman's Club sent a letter to
the Elks requesting that flowers in
stead of bunting be used in decoration.

vears past, and while the roads toward
Crater Lake are still blocked, they will
bo open some weeks earlier than last
season. While no one, as far as known,
has crossed the mountains toward the
rogue River valley this Winter, via
Crater Lake, it is not believed the snow
is more than 14 or 15 feet deep at Gov
ernment headquarters.
Superintendent W. Frank Arant, of
Crater Lake National Park, desires to
open the park at the earliest possible
date. Much of the bridging over
canons and ravines has to be con
vertible so that it can be stored during
the Winter, as the weight of 15 to 25
feet of snow or the rush of thaws is
likely to break up the structures or
carry them away.
