THE MORNING OEEGOXIAN. SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1913. IS PLANS COMPLETE FOR CITY GARAGE Great Saving Is Anticipated in Purchase and Storage of All Supplies. H 0 R SE-SH OER. TO BE HIRED Cars Will Be Kept In Good Condition, Adding to Length or Life, and Iay Be Standardized for Economical Keasons,- rno now municipal garage, re Pair plant and storehouse to be es tablished in the Brown building; at East "Water and East Madison streets will bring about a greater saving of money and time for the city than any other of the numerous economic- plans being put Into effect by the City .Cbm mlssion is the assertion of City Com missioner Daly. Yesterday he com pleted details of pians t or . the plant which will be put into -working' order as soon as possible. On the lower floor will be an Auto mobile garage for the housing of all the city automobiles, trucks and motor- mu a. piant ior tneir repair and a station ror supplying gasoline. It is declared a saving will be made here of no less than $100 a month in the cost of gasoline, $200 a month in gar age service now paid to various garage owners and a large sum In repairs. Me chanics will be kept on hand to repair all the automobiles, city wagons and city machinery. Supplies for the ma chines will be kept in stock in large amounts. It is said the city can re pair its own machines at a cost of 60 per cent less than that now paid. Care Will Be Given Cars. A great saving in the wear and tear on machines will be brought about, it Is said. A system will be adopted whereby each machine will be checked daily on a card index system. The time the machine is taken from the garage and the time it is returned, and the name of the official havine- It will be kept. No machine will be permitted ' out alter night without written orders from the official having charge of the department to which the machine be longs. This will eliminate joyriding at night. As soon as a car is turned in it will be cleaned and properly h-useti. This system, it is said, will lengthen the life of the machines. At present the city pays -ell the way from $5 to J18 a month for the storage of each car. In time it is proposed to standardize all the city's machines, so that one- line of supplies can be pur chased in large amounts. One of the greatest savings will be in the purchase of hay, grain and other supplies in , large amounts. It is said that a saving of at least 30 per cent can be made in the purchase of gen eral supplies. Hay and grain will be purchased in the harvest seasjn and supplies of iron pipe and materials used in the various departments will be purchased when the market prices are most favorable. S'orsre Will Be Installed. A portable forge for the shoeing of .all the city's horses will be operated. A blacksmith in charge will keep tab on all the city's horses, noting Just when each should be shod and ust when repairs to fire apparatus should be made. At present the fire service is hampered by the Irregular shoeing period and the fact that horses are of ten shod when there is no need for new shoes. The fire department repair plant and the repair plant maintained by the water department will be combined in the building and all city repairing will be placed under one head. Tnts will not Increase the force of mechan ics, but will increase the- amount cf work. It is said one-third more re pair work can be done. The only re pairing which will not be attempted Is that on Intricate machine rarts which require expensive machinery. The city will pay a rental of 5500 a month on the concrete building, with the privilege of purchasing it at The end of a year for J85.000. It is close to railroad and electric tracks and is in a central location. "BILLY" SUNDAY TO SPEAK Well-Known Evangelist Expected to ' Arrive In Portland Today. Rev. "William A.

When Commissioners Meet to . Ar range for Appeal Plaintiffs . Make Acceptable Offer. On the eve of the consummation of of an appeal to the Supreme Court of Oregon of the case of Robert Wake field against the city, involving a claim of $148,000 for extras in the contract for the construction of Mount Tabor, reservoirs 5 and 6, the City Commission and representatives of the Wakefield company yesterday agreed on a set tlement of the case. The city will pay 5135,000 to clear up the entire tangle. The case has been dragging along through the courts for more than a year at an expense of about $6000 to the city and to the Wakefield people. Recently a Jury in the Circuit Court awarded Wakefield a Judgment of $148,000 and interest on that amount for 18 months and court costs. The city, after considering the circum stances, decided to appeal to the Su preme Court. During the Rushlight administration offers of settlement were made, but were refused by the Wakefield people. The Commission was to have met yes terday to consider the furnishing of a bond on. the appeal. The company was represented at the meeting and offered to make a settlement of the claim. The question was taken up and after much argument a settlement was perfected at $135,000. .This covers all interest and court costs due from the city. The city admitted owing the Wake field interests $116,000 for extras on the reservoirs, but rerused to pay the Judgment of $148,000 until the case had been adjudicated by the Supreme Court. The city has money enough in the water fund and other funds to pay the claim. This will terminate the case. ILL READY FOR BUYERS PORTLAXB MERCHANTS AWAIT yOKTIUVEST DEALERS.

LAND MOT OWNED TRADED Tax Receipts of Ancient Vintage Passed Off In Exchange for Val uable Holdings and' Otber Schemes Are Exposed. " Encouraged hy Judge McGinn's action in holding to the grand Jury three al leged bunco men, Ed De Young, Ted Edwards and H. J. Evans, who ap peared In his court as defendants in- a fraud case in which "Count" Senosky was plaintiff, people have heen pour ing into District Attorney Evans' of fice to malce complaints of having been "bilked" In trades. In some Instances De Young and his associates are In volved and in others various names appear. (De Young and Evans have been arrested and are out on bail pend ing action by the grand jury. Edwards has not been apprehended, but a com plaint has reached the District Attor ney's office that even since the rebuke given by Judge McGinn he has sold for $75 furniture which he did not own. "This is all there is between me and the summit of- starvation," remarked O. L. Henderson, an aged and deaf man, producing a $5 gold piece in Mr. Evans' office yesterday. He complained that he bad traded to F. G. Matthews a drug store and confectionery worth $1500, located at East Fifty-ninth and Belmont streets, for 20 acres of land In Linn County supposed to be worth (100 an acre. He said' that he found it on a hillside and that Matthews had no title worth anything. Tax Certificate Sale Title. Matthews' title, ne declared, was based -on a ?S-cent certificate of tax delinquency issued in 1901 or 1902. and not entered till 1913. Real title to the property is In the Hammond Lumber Company. In addition, Henderson says he found the land on a steep hillside and practically worthless and that an old .woman has made her home on it' for 18 years. When he-Traded his store he gave a $300 note to cover outstand ing debts against the store should any develop. Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Van Clair told Deputy District Attorney Murphy that they had traded a $500 equity In a house and lot to B.

W, Cox explained to Deputy Dis trict Attorney Deich that Ed De Young had "buncoed" him to the extent of $472 by selling him a half interest in a moving-picture show at Lents. The business was not as represented, he said, and when he protested De Young bought hira out, giving his note in payment. Cox says the note is worth less. Further he declares that De Young has sold the same half interest to several persons. Women Tell of Losses. ' Edith R. Davis said that she was fleeced by De Young when she traded him a rooming-house for some land in Linn County, discovering that he had no title. Mrs. Lily Trigg, of Lents, declares that she traded an equity of $2000 in business property of that suburb to a man named Hall for 80 acres of land in Oklahoma only to find later that the title to this land is in the State of Oklahoma and has never parsed from it- She Implicates a man named Gies in the transaction. A. C. Barrilac. employed in a depart ment store, caused the arrest yester day of Court iDitmar, a personal friend with whom he has been "associated for years in purchasing and improving property. Ditmar was arrested just as he was about to leave the city and was held to the grand Jury by District Judge Bell. He is accused by Barrilac of attempting to beat him out of -is half interest in a house and lot. Bar rilac says that he trusted implicitly in his friend's honesty, allowing him to make titles in his own name exclusive ly and keeping only memoranda of his interests. He has now discovered, he asserts, that Ditmar sold the property a short time ago to his mother-in-law and that it has been mortgaged for $1400. These are only a few of the com plaints with which District Attorney Evans and his staff of deputies are wrestling. Testimony is to be laid be fore the grand Jury in every case. A. L.
