Taylor Wins Laurels .for Plan to Holster- Chiefs $500,000 x-licnie Water Supply Abun dant anil Heservoir Building. A most alarming shortage of water is trie latest di.scovery made by one of Commissioner Daly's engineers as signed to the ta.sk of gathering data relevant and irrelevant to use in bolstering up Mr. Daly's proposed $50,oou water meter scheme which will be voted upon at the June election. The remarkable showing of this engineer, Kdwln A. Taylor, was a revelation to the rest of the Water Hnreau, Including Mr. Paly, becntise .-.11 have persistently Hsserted that Portland has an unlim ited supply of water. Hut Portland will not perish from thirst this next Summer or for many years to lOim either with or without meters for Mr. Taylor's suddenly din-j covered shortage is theoretical. It is.! surrounded with "ifs." If Portland suffers from thirst at all it will be theoretical thirst. The shortage is based upon the theory that Hull Run River will fail to bring down its supply of sparkling water, that the pipelines will flatly re fuse to carry their 67.OOO.0tlO gallons of water daily, of which they are capable; that a new 5no.noo,no0-gslon reservoir, being built at the headworks, will re fuse to hold any water, and that many other theoretical catastrophes will oc cur at the Bull Kun headworks. Rverybody else who has anything to do with the Water Bureau contends that Portland has a sufficient supply for a population of 750,000. Nobody heretofore has disputed that Portland has nn unlimited supply for present needs. Opinions in this regard have been based upon the. fact that at the headworks one-third or less of the sup ply oes into the pipelines and two thirds or more goes over the spillway. f the supply that goes Into the pipe lines one-eisrhth rocs into the sewers when it reaches the reservoirs in Port land. Mr. Daly's figures show that Portland had a shortape last year in spite of the fact that there was not a day during the record hot spell that millions of gallons of water did not run into the .sewers at the headworks. In addition to there being an over abundant supply of water at the head works the year around the Water Bu reau is at work now on the construc tion of ;'. dam at the headworks to cost JloO.OuO, which will form a natural reservoir to hold 500,000.000 gallons of water. In addition to there being a suf ficient supply in Rull Run River the year around, there will be the ad ditional supply of BOO, 000,000 gallons after this year. This reservoir at the headworks. according: to Commissioner Daly's announcement, is to increase the "head" so that the pipelines can be filled to capacity. Its purpose is not to add to the supply, but to raise the l"-vel of the headworks. Until now1 the Water Bureau has never realized that an increa.se in water supply has been needed. Therefore Mr. Taylor's report was an eyeopener. He holds first laurels so far among- the Water Bureau en glneers for producing- "good dope" for Mr. Daly to use in his meter scheme. Mr. Tavlor, whoso particular work is superintending construction of water mains, concurs in the opinions ex pressed by the rest of the Water Bu reau engineers four in number that city-wide water meters tn Portland are merely a temporary expedient to head off expenditures for reinforcing Port land's distributing system. He says, as do the others, that the reinforcements will be necessary some time regardless of whether or not the city Is metered. The purpose of meters is to postpone the time when these reinforcements are necessary. In other words the city will expend approximately $100,000 a year from now until doomsday to avoid a few ex penditures now for reinforcing mains, which will have to be built later anyway.

Choate, who is president; Judge Alton B. Parker, vice-president, and ex-Secretary of War 11. Ij. Stimson, a director. The league is non-partisan and enrolls Republicans and Democrats alike. The league has no connection with "The Legion" with which Colonel Roosevelt's name has been linked. The purpose of the National Security League is to promulgate patriotism and arouse interest in a better prepared ness of the Nation in case a crisis should arise. Business men, young; and old. will be interested in the movement and while no actual steps in organizing forces will be taken, the object of the league's work will be to awaken the public conscience to the duty of Na tional defense in case of need. As vice-president of the Pacific Coast, Mr. Tebbetts will be sent to various centers where he will lecture and start movements. A meeting will be called for Portland in the near fu ture. Captain Tebbetts was active in the organization of Troop A. and is recognized as an authority on Na tional preparedness, having? made an exhaustive study of the situation in the United states and other countries. Commander "Who Cut AVay Through Surrounding Foes Later Is Taken Prisoner While Leading Men When Seriously Wounded. LONDON, May 20. Seven thousand Russians captured on the San have been added to the captives taken by the Austro-Germans, according to Vi enna and Berlin reports, which say the Teuton allies have succeeded in cross ing the San. Kight big guns were also taken. Emperor William personally directed the operations on the San the first of the week, says a dispatch from Amster dam, which adds that the Kaiser ac companied one division which was en gaged in a terrific battle. The Austro-German forces operating against the defeated Russian front of 200 miles, number 1.360.000 men, it is said, and the Petrograd war office is rushing heavy reinforcements to meet this great army. Heroic General Captured. General Kornilieff, in command of the Russian division that recently cut its way through an overwhelming foce of Austro-Germans that had surround ed him, has been captured, says a dis patch from Petrograd. lie was person ally leading a rear gard action while severely wounded when captured, the dispatch adds. All reports agree that the Russian reverse has reached serious propor tions. Petrograd correspondents of London papers saying the situation seems something like a collapse of the Czar's army. Austro-German losses have been enormous, however, and some reports are that they have not yet won a vic tory of decisive strategic significance. Ruaatan Ammunition Exhausted. One Vienna report Is to the effect that the Russians have exhausted their supply of ammunition. Lemberg reports say large numbers of .Austro-German captives are bein:; taken through that district into Russia. The Austro-Germans have gained practically complete control of the Gali cian oil fields, according to a commu nication from Vienna. Some Russian military critics take the view that the Austro-German forces are now reaching a position which will be extremely hazardous for the Teuton allies. boy by that parcel post?" a negro In quired at the stamp window yesterday. The clerk looked, puzzled at a fat negro boy- beside the man. "I don't know. I'll refer you to the Postmaster." he said. The negro, James Taylor, took the boy into Postmaster Collins' office and again expressed the desire to mail the negro boy by parcel post. "Why don't you send him by the train as a passenger?" Mr. Collins asked. "I done counted the cost and I ain't got that "mount." the negro replied. The negro said he and his wife were separated and that he wanted to send the boy to Poplar Bluff. Mo., where his grandparents would take care of him. He insisted that the boy go parcel post. Mr. Collins had the youngster weighed. He hit the scales at 46 pounds. "Can't, send over 20 pounds that distance," the Postmaster said. "You'll have to divide your boy if you send him by mail." The negro scratched his head a bit and then 4ook the boy by the hand and walked out of the office grumbling: "That parcel post ain't what It's cracked up to be."

Wales, via London. May 20. The Hritish steamship Drumcree, which left Larry Tuesday, has been torpedoed in the English channel. The members of her crew have been saved. It was only on account of the bravery shown by the crew of a Norwegian steamer that the passengers and crew of the Drumcree were rescued. The Drumcree was first torpedoed when off the Cornish coast yesterday, but the projectile failed to sink her. She was taken In tow by the Norwegian steamer, but the submarine started in pursuit and the Norwegian cast her off. A second torpedo finished the Drum cree. She was sinking rapidly when the Norwegian vessel, perceiving her peril, returned and took off the pas sengers and crew. LONDON. May 19.

Announced for Sunday next is the sensational drama, "Cora." from the pen of De Brissao. and which stars Emily Stevens, the niece of Mrs. Fisk. Harry Williams, of San Dirgo, Wanders to Police Station Where Skull Found Fractured. "It's Gladys I want and I am afraid that I have lost her forever. ' I don't know whether I am married to her or just engaged, but I must find her." In this manner spoke Harry Williams, of San Diego, from the wandering mazes of his troubled memory, as he endeavored to recall incidents of the past at the Emergency Hospital yes terday. Williams was taken to the hospital early yesterday morning, sup posedly ill, but found later to be a victim of asphasia, a lapse of memory resulting from an old wound in the head. Williams desired to telegraph to San Diego when he entered police head quarters, but he spoke in a stuttering fashion and disconnectedly and was sent to the hospital for treatment. When on the verge of being sent to the County Jail for examination by insanity experts, it was discovered that Williams was still suffering from a bad concussion of the brain from which he had never fully recovered. There is still pressure upon the brain, thinks City Physician Ziegler, although a silver plate had been in serted in the skull to relieve it. Williams found it difficult to answer questions yesterday, but this much was gleaned from him: He had suffered a brain concussion nearly a year ago in a fall from a ladder while working for the Highland Orange Association, near San Diego. He came to Portland from San Diego two weeks ago. by rail and boat. He registered at a hotel here but does not know which one. The events of the last few days and of many days during the past year are hazy with him. There is a Miss Gladys French in San Diego, or a Mrs. Williams, he declares, for his memory does not serve him as to whether or not he is mar ried. Williams Is 35 years old, and is well dressed. He had about $16 on his per son when he wandered into police headquarters. An investigation is being made as to where he was stopping here and with regard to San Diego connections. Messages have been sent to Dr. De Ville. In the meantime, Williams Is made comfortable at the Emergency Hospital. He sent out for his meals yesterday, and as he rests he is ap parently improving his condition. Dr. Ziegler expects that he will have re covered his -memory fully in a few days, if improvement continues. si i III Double Stamps TODAY AND SATURDAY 20 Extra if You Bring the Coupon Use This Coupon ftrm-Z, I '.

SWISS SAFE, SAY GERMANS Cologne Gazette Refers to "Ameri can Lies" in Editorial. BERLIN. ty wireless to London, May 20. The Cologne Gazette repudiates a report alleged to. have been current in America that Germany would cross Switzerland In case of war with Italy. "The case of Switzerland as the world knows," says the Gazette, "is vastly different from that Belgium. Belgian neutrality was made in an am biguous manner by an arrangement with one side, while Switzerland has maintained her neutrality with all par ties.

Two more proposed charter amend ments, one providing for the annexa tion of Linnton to Portland and the other providing for means of construct ing lire stops on the waterfront, are to be submitted to the voters at the June election, the City Council decided yes terday. This makes a total of It issues to be voted on and one more issue still to be considered. Commissioners Daly and Dleck op posed submission of the I.innton ques tion because of the bonded debt of that town. It waa declared by Commissioner Dieck. that Linnton'a bonded debt amounts to 9 per cent of the assessed valuation and that Portland would lose by taking over the town and its debts. Commissioner Daly asked the Coun cil to instruct Auditor liarbur to. have printed in all the newspapers full financial statement of Linnton. The second measure submitted was a proposed act by the Dock Commission providing for the construction of con crete fire walls or fire stops on the waterfront, the cost to be assessed against abutting property owners. A third measure proposed by the Dock Commission. empowering the Commission to lease for & term of years street ends along the waterfront, was put over until tomorrow. The Council rejected a request of A. W. Lafferty, representing Jitney driv ers, that there be submitted to the voters an alternate jitney ordinance. The Council decided that there should be but one Jitney measure on the ballot were burned out and nliKht damage was done to the New Greece coffee house at IU4 Bumslde. Able to Handle It. Judge.
