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.

OLD CITY SUIT SETTLED
WAKEFIELD CIAIMS COMPRO
MISED FOR $ 135,0 00.
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.

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. Klvich for five
acres of the same Linn County land,
only to find that it was worthless, and
that Klvich's title is based on a 60-cent

I. 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.
