LINE VALUATION FAVORED
Irvirjgton PaVk Club Indorses Pro
posal Made by Mr. Daly.
Commissioner Daly's plan for the
city to obtain an accurate physical
valuation of the property of the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Com
pany, as the basis of regulation of the
traction company, was Indorsed at the
meeting of the Irvington Park Club,
Monday night in the hall at Killings
worth avenue and Kast Thirtieth
street. Mr. Daly addressed -the meet
ing and explained that the city pro
posed to employ experts at a cost of
$7500 to make an accurate survey and
estimate of trie physical properties o
the traction company as the bases of
future regulations.
Mr. Daly also spoke of the need of
water meters ani the protection of
the Bull Run reserve from invasion
and damage.
There was disappointment that Com.
missioner Daly could not give the peo
ple any hope that the city could require
the traction company to give better
streetcar service on Alberta or other
lines
INTERFERENCE IS COSTLY
Verdict of $7 50 Given Against Man
"Who Saj-s He Rescued Women.
Because he interfered In an alleged
altercation between Henry Zorn and
two women at 60 Cook street last Sep
tember, a Jury In Circuit Judge Clee
ton's court yesterday returned a ver
dict for $750 against George Engelke
In the action brought by Zorn. For In
juries received when Enelke Inter
fered and assaulted him with a rifle
Zorn asked $20,000. '
Engelke defended the action by as
serting that he came to the assistance
of the two women who had called for
help. When he entered the house Zorn,
he charged In his answer, had attacked
the women.
SHIPPERS GIVE EVIDENCE
It. B. Miller, O.-W. R. & X. Official,
Expects Another Meeting.
R. B. Miller, traffic manager of the
O. W.-R., & N. Company, returned yes
terday from Chicago, where he attend
ed a prolonged session of the transcon
tinental freight bureau. Representa
tives of all the railroads operating
west of Chicago were present. More
than 100 shippers were heard and their
petitions for rate adjustments consid
ered. It is probable that another meeting
will be held early in the Spring, at
which additional evidence -will be re
ceived from shippers. Rate adjust
ments due to the threatened encroach
ment of foreign commerce as a re
suit of the recent enactment of tariff
reductions probably will be taken up
at that time.
Mr. Miller reports that traffic men
generally are agreed that business con
ditions relating to the railroads are
due for a decided improvement within
the next few months.

Business and Other Things Inci
dental, Says Rev. Sir. Marcotte.
"Not baseball, nor football nor tennis,
but life Itself is the one great game,"
said Rev. Henry Marcotte, pastor of
Westminster Presbyterian Church, in
an address at the T. M. C. A. yester
day noon. "Many think that business
and finance is the great game, but they
are just incidental. In all that we do
or say we are playing our part in the
game of life. To play our part best
we must play it as Christ would
have us."
Mr. Marcotte will speak at the Y. M.
