K. Lumber Company to give testimony favorable to the defendants, is false. 'It was made by Mr. Mannix for sen sational purposes and is entirely with out foundation in fact.' i?; Proof -Declared Obtained. Mr. liannix made the following state ment out of court: "I am absolutely prepared to prove by two witnesses that Mr. Nash made such a proposal to 3Wr. Dodge in the latter's office. He showed Mr. Dodge a telegram in the handwriting of Mr. Kribs which would be .sent to San Francisco parties in the event the proposition was accepted, in order to arrange the bond transfer." Mr. Mannix also said that Mr. Nash first tried to get Mr. Dods out for an automobile ride to discuss the matter. Acting on Mr. Mannix" advice, Mr. Dodjte declined. The visit of Mr. Nash to Mr. Dodge's office followed. This occurred, he said, about two or three weeks ago.

He also said that Mr. Dodge had no capi tal when he came to the defendant company to do. business, and relied on nerve and bluff to carry him through. The defendants, he said, had carried 2klr. Dodge for months when he was without money. ' He said that Mr. Dodge wasted $287. 000 on a logging railroad which was estimated to cost' $S8.000. Of this aniount Mr. Dodge spent $253,000 and defendants had to advance $12,000 to complete the road, Mr. Jones said. Attorneys Clash Often. : .V. M. Stearns, a lumberman, was on the stand yesterday.

He admitted later that dif ferent cruisers varied in their esti mates as much as 15 per cent, and told of the difficulties of the work.

AUSTRIAN LOAN IS ASSURED Total Debt of Dual Monarchy Now ; Amounts to $5,800,000,000. ,'NEW YORK, June 25. The success of the second Austro-Hungarian war loan is assured, according to wireless messages received here from Vlenlra .and annonnced tonight by Alexander von. Nnber, Consul-General for Aus- BR1B CHARGED COURT trla-Hungary. In a statement the Consul-General says that the subscriptions for the second loan already amount to 4.500.000,000 crowns ($900,000,000), which he says provides financial means for the continuation of the war for at least 10 months. "Subscriptions continue to come In," the statement says, "and there is a fair prospect that the total amount will pass the $1,000,000,000 mark. Sub scriptions for the first war loans total $600,000,000, and therefore all sums con tributed by the population of the dual monarchy amount at present to $1,500, 000.000." The total Indebtedness of Austria Hungary, which previous to the war amounted to $3,800,000,000, has thus been raised to $5,300,000,000. In this con nection it is pointed out that the total wealth of Austria-Hungary is esti mated at $25,000,000,000; the increase of indebtedness, therefore, amounts to only 6 per cent of the national wealth.

Thus far no medal has been given. Presentation of a certificate entitling Mr. Gavin to the medal will take place at the City Hall this after noon, this being the fourth anniversary of the death of Mr. Campbell. After the presentation of the medal firemen and municipal officials and others will go to Riverview cemetery where memorial services will be held over the grave of the departed chiel, A. G. Long, president'of the Campbell memorial fund, will make a few re marks, as will also Mayor Albee and possibly one or two others. This me morial is an annual event. Mr. Gavin, who is to receive the hero medal today, is known as one of the most daring firemen in the service. He has figured in a number of sensational rescues since he has been in the fire service. On Janjiary 29, 1911. a fire broke out at First and Harrison streets. Mr. Gavin with Chief Dowell responds. Upon reaching the scene it became known that a man was in the second story of the building and probably had been overcome with smoke. Mr. Gavin mounted a fire ladder and climbed to a second-story window. Hearing the moans of the man he jumped through the window into the room which was white with smpke. and felt his way to where Eckland was prostrate on the floor, and carried him safely out of the building. Mr. Gavin was nearly overcome by smoke. The Campbell Memorial trustees com prise A. Ci. Long, C. A. Blgelow, W. T. Pangle. John F. Carroll arid Assistant Fire Chief Laudenklos.

SUPERINTENDENT IS HERO Prompt Checking of Current Save6 Great .Amusement l'ark From Conflagration, Although Small Blazes Are Started. The Oaks Amusement Park was struck three times by lightning yesterday aft ernoon during the course of an electric storm. All three bolts occurred within a period of one minute, at 3:22 o'clock. The damage done will probably not exceed J600, said John F. Cordray, man ager of the park, last night. The three places struck were the auditorium, where the concrete plaster on one corner was sent crashing down; the carousel, or merry-go-round, where one of the giant electric motors and a couple of electric meters were torn to pieces; the skating rink, wb.ere a hole was bored Into the roof, all the decora tlons cut to pieces as if impish goblins had been at work, and a second hole torn In the floor. Some Have Sllsht Bnrns. One man. Art Fuller, a carpenter, suffered somewhat from shock, but was not severely injured, while the at tendants at the carousel both show signs of minor electric burns. Three small fires started near the carousal, which the Oaks fire depart ment promptly extinguished. A hero was developed in Ed Bol linger, superintendent, who raced to me Dig convertor house, where 60,000 volts is cut down for the 14,000 electric lights in The Oaks. Despite the blue names playing over everything, Mr. Bollinger shut off the current. With Mr. Cordray and a crew of men, work ing to have the dancehall ready for tonight, Mr. Bollinger saw the flashes playing in The Oaks trees. There was a report like thunder, say the soecta tors, and the carousal seemed to shiver. There was a crash as the motor was torn to pieces, while the electric meters nad holes fused right through them. Switch Saves Great Park. The lightning rod had another nail driven in its coffin. Both the carousal and rink were '"protected" by lightning "But for the fact that Mr. Bollinger shut off the current so rapidly the uaKs might be in ashes tonight," said Mr. Cordray. "As the lightning- struck om build. lng after another we saw the erandest pyroiecnnic exhibition The Oaks has ever staged. The electric lamp stand ards glowed and SDarkled. whlln metal ail over the park was affected." Ihe oddest destruction was in the rink.

JURY SCORED RY COURT LIBERATION OF MAN ACCUSED B ArISITING GIRL RESENTED. Court of Opinion Defendant Is Proved Guilty of Attack, and Say Ver dict Is Not Protective. The most vigorous scoring of a Jury heard from the Municipal bench for many months was accorded the six men who found Leo Spies not guilty of an attempted assault on Miss Orba Frazier, aged 19, by Municipal Judge Stevenson yesterday. "This jury is discharged without the compliments of the court," said Judge Stevenson when the verdict was ren dered. "If this Is all the protection young girls will get in this city it is time the public knows about It. It is a shame and a scandal that a man as guilty as this man, who could not look the jurymen in the eye as he testified, should be acquitted by unanimous ver dict. "While it is the province of the Jury to determine the facts. I do not pro pose to let this occasion pass without improving the opportunity to tell you what I think of such a verdict." "I object to the court's remarks," in terpolated H. K. Sargent, attorney for the defense, at this juncture. "There is nothing to object to,'- re torted Judge Stevenson. "The jury has passed on the case. I am saying what I think; about it." Miss Frazier, who is from Telocaset, Or., is visiting friends in Portland. She testified that she was attacked Sunday afternoon on Portland Heights by Spies, who ran when Bhe screamed. The defense, which did not directly deny that Spies had accosted the girl, was not convincing to the court. The jurors were: C. P. Steinmetz, M. Jacobsen, M. A. Groesbeck, O. E. Dittbrenner, Ned Lawler and V. R. White. LOGGING LINE PROPOSED SILVER FALLS COMPANY INCREASES CAPITAL STOCK M00.0O0. Preparations Made to Enlarare Out put When Timber Market Re gains Its Composure. The Silver Falls Timber Company, a $6,000,000 Portland corporation, is an ticipating better days for the lumber industry," according to A. C. Tevis and J. B. Kerr, directors. The company is spending money to conduct its opera tions when the lumber market im proves, and may resume logging in September. Supplementary articles of incorpora tion were filed yesterday in the office of the County Clerk, increasing the capital Ktock to $6,400,000. The $400,000 increase, according to Mr. Tevis, is to be used for the ex tension of a logging railroad. This extension is to tap new timber dis tricts, providing material for two years' operations when the company esumes logging. . The company has 30,000 acres of timber land near Silverton. At pres ent the logging railroad is about 20 miles long, and it is proposed to ex tend it seven or eight miles. The new district through which the extension will be built is a hilly country, accord- ng to Mr. Tevis. and the road ex tension will be expensive. It has already been started. ro timber has been taken off this property by the company since last December, Mr. Tevis says. He said that the resumption of logging opera tions depends upon the lumber market, but that if conditions are favorable, the work will begin in September.

With traveling bag at his side and a ticket for San Francisco in his pocket. P. Macchi, partner in the Growers' Pro duce Company, of 149 Front street, who was fleeced out of J300O by two fellow countrymen Thursday. was at the North Bank Depot yesterday morning ready to leave for the South, when dis covered by City Detective La Salle and persuaded to postpone his trip. The first explanation made to the de tective was that. he was going on an important buying trip to San Francisco, but he afterward admitted to Detective La Salle that he was going South to escape the ridicule of his friends, who had learned of the swindle. When Macchi appeared at detective headquarters, Detective Captain Baty told him that he would be of material value to the . police in catching the swindlers and would certainly be needed in this city -to . identify the men, if caught. "If you leave the city we will drop the case," he threatened, and Macchi declared he would stay, and spent most of the day with Detectives Leonard, La Salle and Pat Moloney in following up possible clues. Seven years ago, Macchi, who is 27 years old, was a day laborer, employed in sewer digging in Portland. He then served an apprenticeship with Page & Son, commission merchants, for six years, after which he branched out in business for himself, about 10 months ago, in the Growers' Produce Company, with T. M. Kirk as partner. He is said to have built up a prosperous business. About five weeks ago, the Supreme Court awarded $5220 damages to Macchi from the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company. s the result of an I nnity Alexander ALEXANDER GOES "ON THE JOB" No. 7 of a Series.
