taking definite action. The proposed
extension' will require 17 lots, which
are valued At $3000 each.
-The. committee appointed to investi
gate the extension. A. L. Keenan, Rev.
Father Gregory and "W. Raabe. favored
opening Brooklyn street as the best
and least expensive as the cost of ex
tending Powell street will be about
175.000. It was urged that it would be
better to open Brooklyn street, between
Mllwaukie street and the river, than to
extend Powell street four blocks, be
cause the latter would destroy valuable
property. Brooklyn is a narrow street,
which will have to be made 60 feet
wide, and most of the property owners
favor widening It. The whole matter
will be referred to the City Engineer
to decide what Is best to do.
Property owners on Powell street,
between Mllwaukie and East Nine
teenth streets, have agreed to make
that street 60 feet wide, provided an
outlet to the Willamette River can be
secured. There Is great Interest In
Brooklyn "pver the proposed extension
of Powell street to the river.
PUYFUL ROMP IS FATAL
JJAD IXSTAXTLY KILLED BY
RCXXIXG IXTO ACTO.
Paul Benninghoven Wrecks Machine
Against Streetcar Trying to
Save Sherman Sorsby.
Circling into the street to escape the
pursuit of other boys with whom he
was "Dlavinsr Injun" at East Fiftieth
street and Hawthorne avenue about 5
o'clock last night, Sherman Stanley
Sorsby, 6 years old, son of w. p. borsDy,
J37 East Fifty-first street, ran Into the
rear mud guard of an automobile driven
bv Paul Benninghoven. a liquor sales
man, living at the Portland Hotel, and
was Instantly killed when the rapidly
moving machine threw him 20 reet to
the pavement. Benninghoven wrecked
his machine against a Mount Scott car
in trying to avoid the boy, but could
not get out of the way m time.
Decked In Indian feathers, the little
fellow had been hiding behind a post
from his companions, and when he saw
them coming he ran down Flttiem
street, upon the east car tracks. ' Ben
ninghoven, who had been driving nis
car slowly after the Mount Scott train.
as It rounded the curve at East Fif
tieth and Hawthorne, had turned out
to the left side of the car and was at
tempting to pass it. When he saw the
youngster coming he threw his car
quickly to the -right and so nearly
missed the little chap that only the tip
of his rear mud guard struck him. The
front of his machine crashed into tne
Mount Scott train Just between its two
cars and was badly damaged.
The force of the blow threw the boy
through the air for about 20 feet,
breaking both collar bones and his
right leg and Inflicting internal in
juries. He was dead when picked up,
but Benninghoven took him to the home
of his father, 337 East Fifty-first,
where Dr. William ' Reese was sum
moned and pronounced the lad dead.
The body was removed to Lerch's un
dertaking establishment.
In the automobile with Benning
hoven were Gustav Froshman, 483
Twenty-first street North, and George
M. Bent, 5812 Forty-fifth avenue South
east. The three members of the party
went to the police station, where they
reported the accident to Captain Riley
and promised to appear at the Inquest.
H. B. Spalding, of 349 East
Fifty-first street, an eye-witness of
the accident, said: "The boy ran into the
automobile, rather than the machine
running into him. He evidently did not
see the automobile at all when he
started across the street. The driver
tried his best to avoid the collision and
wrecked his car in . so doing."

ACCUSED WAIVE HEARING
Grand Jury Begins Hearing Testi
mony Against Men.
The grand jury yesterday started
hearing testimony against 17 men
charged with immoral practices. Dep
uty District Attorney Collier said he
anticipates the return of 26 Indict
ments today. All the defendants were
before Circuit Judge Gatens yesterday
afternoon for preliminary hearing. All
waived hearing and orders were made
holding them for grand Jury action. No
new arrests were made yesterday. The
authorities are tracing by telegraph
and telephone several who have left
town.
His arrest has cost Jancl RIgo, vio
linist, his position at the Louvre and
in addition Theodore Kruse, proprietor
of the grill, has filed suit against him
demanding 860.90. A lot of Rigo's
personal belongings were attached by
the Sheriff's office. Kruse says that
between July 12 and November 19 he
advanced Rigo sums aggregating
$1639.45 and that IS60.90 is still due
him from the musician. Rigo has been
released on his own recognizance.
It has developed that in at least two
' cases, and probably three, the Juvenile
Court authorities through mistake took
to the Courthouse men who are now
declared to be entirely innocent. The
names of these men were published In
afternoon papers.
Dr. H. A. Start was again arrested
yesterday on a new charge when the
rumor reached the Juvenile Court offi
cers that he was contemplating leaving
the city. Judge Gatens at first ordered
that he be required to put up 33000
additional bond, but later relented and
let the former bond of 35000 cover both
alleged offenses. Start declared he had
no Intention of leaving.

City Engineer Thomas M. Hurlburt

When 30 city employes appeared be
fore the ways and means committee of
the Council yesterday to explain why
they had allowed their wages to be
garnlsheed a move - was started by
members of the committee to establish
a special city fund from which city
employes can secure loans at reason
able rates of interest The move may
result In a charter amendment with
that provision being submitted to the
people at the regular city election.
' The 30 delinquent employes were
brought "on the carpet" by order of
the committee at Its last meeting. The
plan at that time was to discharge all
persons who could not give good rea
sons for falling to pay their bills. The
committee heard the story of one po
liceman and then called a halt on the
proceedings.
Councilman Magulre declared that
avery delinquent employe would have
a tale of woe which would convince
the committee and that It was a waste
of time. He protested against the
hearing of more of the explanations,
declaring that the committee had no
authority to do anything even if the
employes were deserving of dismissal
from the city service. He declared his
Intention of taking the question of a
permanent loan fund up with the City
Attorney. It is likely that the Execu
tive Board will begin an Investigation
of the delinquent employes, in the
naar future.
STREET EXTENSION ASKED
Brooklyn Club Wants Viaduct Over
Holgate Street, .
A special meeting of the Brooklyn
Improvement Club was held in the
Gregory Hall Tuesday night to discuss
the extension of Powell street from Mll
waukie to the intersection of Wood
ward avenue and East Seventh street,
and the erection by the Southern Pa
cific Railroad Company of a viaduct
over their car track on Holgate street.
It was voted that the City Engineer
be asked to survey and make a report
on the feasibility of the first proposal
The extension of the street would take
17 lots at an estimated cost of 160.000.
In the second case, it was the unan
imous opinion of the members that the
city should accept the proposal of the
Southern Pacific to erect the viaduct at
a cost of 138,000, the price the company
offered. Instead of at a cost of $80,000,
the amount the city desires the com
pany to expend.
City's Xeed Not Made Known.
PORTLAND, Nov. 20. (To the Edi
tor.) My attention has been called to
the report from Hood River in The
Sunday Oregon Ian, wherein it was
stated that the Terminal Company had
held up that city by asking a big price
for a small piece of land needed for an
Incinerator. The truth is that the said
company, of which I am secretary,
never gave any price, and was never
asked to give a price on land for an
Incinerator at Hood River. An agent
of our company was in conference with
two Councilmen and the City Attorney
at Hood River last Saturday, but the
fact that that city was wanting a site
for an incinerator plant was in no wise
made .knowh fo him by them.

"Two cases of smallpox occurred on
the East Side recently," said Dr.
Wheeler, but in each case they were
extraordinarily mild attacks, and the
patients were treated for the grip. To
this day it might not have been known
that they had smallpox had it not been
for the fact that a third person In
the same house contracted the disease.
By that time, however, the trouble had
been done, for the other men were out

"Much of what was at first thought

MODEL SALOON IS HOPE
WOODBITRX TO ALLOW TWO UN
DER, RIGID ORDINANCE.
Twenty-Three Applications for Li
censes Are Filed, but Council
Will Reject 21, at Least.
WOODBURN, Or, Nov. 20. (Special.)
Following the recent city election,
when those in favor of saloon license
hoodooed the opposition by the time
honored "23," numerous applications for
license have been filed with the City
Recorder. According to the city char
ter but two saloons will be allowed
and much speculation is apparent as to
the probable successful applicants.
The City Council has set December
3 as the date , upon which all applica
tions will receive consideration, at
which time it is probable that licenses
will be granted for two saloons, which
will open their doors for business on
January 1. The provisions of the
charter give the Common Council full
power to accept or reject any applicant
and their decision is final.
Stringent rules have been adopted
for the regulation of the proposed sa
loons and all applicants will have to
file a bond for $1000 as a guarantee
that they will obey and abide by all
laws and regulations, in addition to
paying the annual license fee of $1500
in advance.
The regulations provide that there
shall be no adjoining rooms, no card
tables, no billiard or pool tables and
that the fronts of each place of busi
ness shall be so constructed that all
parts of the barroom will be in plain
view from the sidewalks. No advertising-signs
will appear on the win
dows or otherwise and during the
closed hours no proprietor, employe
or anyone will be allowed to enter or
remain in the place of business. The
ordinance provides for closing between
12 midnight until 6 A. M., on all Sun
days, election days and on Memorial
day, legislates against all kinds of
lunches being served and provides a
penalty for giving or attempting to
give any drink or article of value to
any police officer. No entrance Is al
lowed except directly onto the street.
' It is predicted that, if the above and
numerous other regulations are en
forced to the letter, Woodburn will
have two model saloons, which will not
in any way compare with the five sa
loons of ordinary type, which were
voted out of existence two years ago.
HUDSON'S BAIL IS $1500
APPLICATION MADE TO HAVE
BOND SET.
Prisoner, With Several Alianses. Is
Still in Jail, but Will Be Taken
to Baltimore Soon.
? .
Intimations that John E. Hudson,
alias Ringling, had found succor were
seen in Municipal Court yesterday,
when the first application since his
arrest, over a week ago, was made for
the fixing of bail. Hitherto the alleged
lmnostor. who was caught when on
the point of realizing on his supposed
relation to the Ringlings or circus
fame in the amount of 1000, has taken
his confinement as a matter of course,
and surety for his release has not been
mentioned.
The court suggested that a $2000
bond might be about right.
"Can you raise that muVh?" asked
Deputy District Attorney Hennessy.
"No." replied toe defendant's attor
ney, with emphasis.
"Then I guess that will be satisfac
tory," said Mr. Hennessy. The amount
was cut finally to $1500.
Hudson was ordered out from the
box to have a telegraphic copy of the
indictment on file against him at Bal
timore read to him. Mr. Hennessy
started to read before the prisoner ap.
peared: "Shepherd, alias Hudson, alias
Ringling" to the number of five
or six, then, glancing around, saw that
the prisoner was not present.
"Bring those fellows out." he re
quested. The prisoner heard, without a change
of face, the reading of the Indictment,
which set forth in full and In the an
tiquated verbiage of the Eastern
states that he had deserted his wife

pected here before the end of the week
and the prisoner will accompany him

A PLEDGE
I will investigate what appears
to be the greatest investment op
portunity I have run across for
years. I kuow the purpose of the
Panama Canal; I believe it will
open a new commercial era for
the Pacific Coast. I am con
vinced that it will increase the
value of waterfront property in
San Diego, San Francisco, Oak
land, Astoria, Portland, Tacoma
and Seattle.
I am satisfied that the city that
has made the
least effort to
profit by the
opening of the
Panama Canal.
next year, has the greatest oppor
tunity for profit. That's Port
land. I know that nearly every avail
able foot of waterfront in the
City of Portland, and for miles
either way, is owned by the rail
road companies. I believe that
the only water frontage that is
obtainable now, by the man of
small wealth, is at BRIDGE
PORT. I cannot name a piece of prop
erty within the city limits that
stands the excellent chance for
BRIDGEPORT
advance in price that BRIDGE
PORT does. I believe that I
would be overlooking an unus
ual investment, did I not investi
gate, at least, the investment
merits of BRIDGEPORT.
I am of the firm opinion that
$2000 invested in BRIDGEPORT
now will increase more rapidly
than $2000 invested in any other
section of the city, especially dur
ing the next few years, when
steamship companies, railroads
and big industries will all be
seeking the very things that
BKLUu EJrUlvi
has to offer.
Namely, deep
water, five rail
roads, hard-sur
face pavement all the way from
town, on streetcar lino, west side
of river, between the bridges, 5c
fare limit and at the very en
trance of Portland Harbor.
For these reasons, I WIL L
LOOK INTO BRIDGEPORT AS
THE BEST INVESTMENT IN
THE CITY, TODAY. I will pay
10 per cent cash and 2 per cent
a month, that's all.
