J
Highway Commission Not Satisfied
With Opinion of Attorney-General
Which Puts Mr. Cantine
Second to State Engineer.
SALEM, Or., June 9. (Special.)
Acting upon a suggestion of State
Engineer Lewis that the courts be in
voked to determine his duties as State
Highway Engineer, Governor Withy
combe and State Treasurer Kay, com
prising a majority membership of the
State Highway Commission, announced
that a friendly suit would be filed.
Secretary of State Olcott. the other
member of the commission, said he was
satisfied with the opinion of Attorney
General Brown tnat Mr. Lewis was the
Etate Highway Engineer, possessed of
the functions of that office, and that
E. I. Cantine, former State Highway
Engineer, was a subordinate to Mr.
Lewis to all intents and purposes.
That a definite agreement as to the
duties of Mr. Lewis and Mr. Cantine,
as well as the State Highway Commis
sion, under the law consolidating the
offices of State Engineer and State
Highway Engineer, must be reached
lias been apparent for some time. Upon
receiving the opinion from the Attorney-General
Mr. Lewis began per
forming the duties of State Highway
Engineer. Several days after rendering
the opinion Mr. Brown was asked by
the board if it were not possible for
it to work with Mr. Cantine. instead of
Sir. Lewis, it having been the original
intention that Mr. Cantine -virtually be
the State Highway Engineer. Mr.
Brown said he could not alter his
opinion for he could not construe the
law in any other way than he had
done.
Mr. Lewis has continued as the active
Etate Highway Engineer, believing
that he must do so under the opinion of
the Attorney-General and because of
his having given a $10,000 bond as
such. He has repeatedly declared, how
ever, that he never wanted the office,
but inasmuch as it was thrust upon him
he must perform its duties.
; It developed today that Governor
Withycombe had declined to sign
vouchers signed only by Mr. Lewis as
State Highway Engineer. The Gov
ernor insisted afcat they be signed by
Mr. Cantine also. In a letter to the
commission Mr. Lewis said he had ob
tained the signature of Mr. Cantine,
although he believed his signature was
the only one necessary. He said it
would embarrass the department if
Mr. Cantine, who was frequently away
from the city, had to sign all vouchers.
This question will be determined by
the courts. In a letter suggesting that
a, test suit be filed Mr. Lewis said:
"The State Engineer must have the
good will and the support of the State
Highway Commission if he is to make
a suceess of his part of the highway
work. I would therefore strongly
recommend and urge that the com
mission in some appropriate manner
present this matter to the courts for
decision if there is any doubt what
ever as to the correctness of the At-torney-Generars
opinion."
WEATHER MAN UNCERTAIN
X" Heavy Rains Are Expected Today
or Tomorrow, However.
Weather slightly unsettled today and
tomorrow light showers possible no
heavy rains expected. This is the best
the local weather forecaster can do for
Portland during the Rose Festival.
The official forecast, made at 6
o'clock last night, is supposed to cover
conditions up to midnight tonight. The
only reason Mr. Beals, district fore
caster, was willing to hazard a guess
even that far ahead is that he was re
quired to do so.
"No, I can't promise absolutely clear
feather for tomorrow or tomorrow
night," he said last night. Realizing
how unpopular his bureau may be
come, he declined to hazard a predic
tion for one minute ahead of the time
for which he is officially required to
make a forecast.

3 PLACES ROBBED IN NIGHT
Baker Business District Suffers

BAKER, Or., June 9 (Speciat)

all strangers, following the robbery
Jast night of Ritch Bros." grocery, the
JCnigrhts of Pythias clubrooms and the
Kyan millinery, all in the business sec

COLUMBIA COUJfTY AGREES TO PAY
HIGHWAY CONTRACTORS XIS.OOO.
Figure $10,500 Higher Than Recom
mended by Major Bowlby Road
Appropriation Reduced.
SALEM, Or., June 9. (Special.) In
formed today that the Columbia Coun
ty Court and the Consolidated Con
struction Company had reached an
agreement that the company be paid
$65,000 for work on Columbia Highway,
the State Highway Commission gave
the county permission to reduce its ap
propriation for roads this year from
$40,000 to $35,000.
Henry L. Bowlby, when State High
way Engineer, estimated the amount
due the company at $54,500, so various
statements that the prospective settle
ment would be a vindication of that
official are proved to have been
groundless by the county allowing
the company $10,500 more than he
recommended be paid.
The commission's reason for permit
ting the county to reduce its appropria
tion $5000 was that it had reduced the
state appropriation of $60,000 recom
mended by Major Bowlby to $50,000.
the county appropriation having been
made on the belief that it would be
allowed the amount recommended by
the engineer from the state.
While the commission at numerous
hearings declared that it was not within
its jurisdiction to settle the differences
between the county and the company,
sufficient evidence was produced to
show that the company probably was
entitled to more money than the en
gineer recommended be paid. The
company, however, declined to state the
amount it desired, contending that it
was the duty of the highway depart
ment to have the work rechecked and
correct the figures. This the commis
sion said it could not authorize, al
though there was a partial rechecking
by a private engineer, who reported
that the company was entitled to sev
eral thousand more than Major Bowlby
estimated.

MRS. DIECK'S ROSES LURE
Xew and Ancient Varieties Draw
Much Attention at Show.
Roses exhibited by Mrs. Robert G.
Dieck, wife of the City Commissioner,
at the show of the Rose Society now
going on in the new Meier & Frank
building attracted much attention and
praise yesterday. She is showing six
new roses, which she brought from her
Hood River home. She captured a
prize with a display of moss roses, an
old-fashioned favorite.
In her collection may also be seen
Austrian briers that date back to the
16th century, and Scotch brier rosea
that were developed long ago by Lord
Penzance, who introduced grafts on the
old Scotch sweetbrier and developed it.
These roses appear unusual and most
attractive by contrast with the usual

EX-CONVICT IS SUSPECT
FRED LOVE ACCUSED OF BLOWING
SAFE FOR BAIL FOR BROTHER. .
Man Held by Police Believed to Have
Robbed to Get Money to Free
Kin In HUlsboro.
An ex-convict's desire to get his
brother out of the Hillsboro Jail, where
he Is held on a charge of burglary,
may be the motive which prompted dy.
namiting of the Tauscher saloon safe
at 146 Second street last week, accord
ing to the theory on which the city
detectives are working.
This feature of the case came to
light yesterday, when complaints were
sworn out charging Fred Love, of Syl
van," Or., and William Burnick, a bar
ber, with complicity in the crime.
Fred Love's brother, John Love, Is
under arrest in Hillsboro charged with
burglary. His bail is J1000. Fred Love
was present at his brother's prelim
inary hearing, the police assert. Fred,
according to police statements, has
served sentences In four penitentia
ries. Love's need of money to get his
brother out on bail, and his alleged
record, were the chief factors which
first drew the suspicion of the police
to him.
After Love's arrest. Detectives Cole
man, Snow, Goltz, Abbott, La Salle and
Leonard visited Sylvan, Or., to search
for evidence. A stranger had pur
chased powder and caps at a store in
HUlsboro on a pretense of clearing
land of stumps a few days before the
dynamiting of the same, the officers
found.
The police believe that Burnick made
this purchase, as Love would be rec
ognized if he bought the explosives in
his home town. Burnick is said to
have been a close associate of Love's.
The police are also endeavoring to
trace the ownership of a hammer, chisel
and other tools left behind, in the sa
loon by the safe blowers.

Attorneys Believe Myers Case Will
Indicate Result of Others.
OREGON CITY, June 9. (Special.)
The importance of the decision of
Recorder Loder in the William Myers
liquor case on others soon to be heard
is generallj' recognized by local at
torneys. The decision will be received
tomorrow morning following the trial
of yesterday. The cases are an after
math of recent raids.
The' first successful attempt to attack
the credibility of the detectives on
whose testimony the case was tried was
made yesterday by Attorney Hayes for
the defense when Carl Wilson testified
that he was 18 years old instead of 24
as he had said in previous cases. In
other details the testimony of Wilson
also was weakened.
The most important of the liquor
caseB, the charges against the officers
of the Moose Lodge, are yet to be he;trd.

ACTION HELD UNFORTUNATE
Governor Witliycombe Talks on
Bryan's Resignation "at Crisis."
SALEM, Or., June 9. (Special.) Re
plying to requests of numerous news
papers. Governor Withycombe' today
issued the following statement regard
ing the resignation of Secretary of
State Bryan:
"Bryan's resignation seems to me un
fortunate at this crisis, as it may tend
to embarrass the Administration in
pending foreign negotiations, but I feel
that despite the defection in his offi
cial family President Wilson will con
tinue to handle the international situ
ation with fitting firmness. Bryan's
withdrawal apparently makes easier a
more effective attitude toward Mexico
and probably lessens the likelihood that
the Administration might be irresolute
in its attitude toward Germany. Un
swerving insistence upon our demands
is Justified, and in securing them the
United States stands loyally united and
devoutly hoping that peace with honor
may continue to be obtainable."

Promise to Marry and Destruction of
Notes Alleged, but Demand for
Damages Is Dropped.
After Arthur P. Olson had testified
on the witness-stand that Mrs. Mollie.
M. Patton Saxton had broken her
promise to marry him. Circuit Judge
Gantenbein took Olson and his at
torneys into the judicial chambers and
advised them to drop the suit against
Mrs. Saxton, which they did.
Olson's complaint alleged that not
only did he lose a wife, but that he
is out $1500 bacause Mrs. Saxton mar
ried another man. He declared he lent
her S500 on three different occasions
and that she gave him a promissory
note for each amount. On December
25, 1913, Olson says, their friendship
ripened into genuine affection and she
promised to marry him. Together they
burned the three promissory notes.
"I furnished the notes and she fur
nished the match," "said Olson on the
witness-stand yesterday.
In September, 1914, the woman whom
Olson belied to be his fiancee was
married to John W. Saxton. Olson then
brought suit against Mrs. Saxton,
asking to recover $1500 for the burned
promissory notes, $94 interest on the
notes, and $1000 general damages for
the "mental anguish" he suffered be
cause his tiancee deserte) him.
Mrs. Saxton denied that she ever had
promised to marry Olson. She was not
forced to tell her side of the case in
court, however, for Judge Gantenbein
stopped the proceedings after Olson
had testified. Olson's attorneys then
took a voluntary non-suit.
Within an hour, they filed another
complaint against Mrs. Saxton, con
taining practically the same allegations
as the first suit. In the last com
plaint, however, they asked only $1594
for the promissory notes, omitting the
$1000 damages for "mental anguish."
