TTT13 MOHNIXG OREGON! AX. SATURDAY. JT7IT 17. 10TK. PERJURY ALLEGED IN DODGE HEARING Tilt Between A. E. Clark and - Thomas Mannix Enlivens Proceedings in Court. CLASH ON BRIBERY CHARGE Koiitine Work of Day Monotonous, With B. J. Vaughn Under CrobS Kxamination Regarding Con tract That Brought Failure. TJurlng a clash between attorneys in the Dodge timber land Buit yesterday, A. E. Clark declared that "cold-blooded and deliberate perjury" had been com mlttcd in charging William S. Nash, an attorney, with offering a $25,000 bribe to E. H. Dodge to Influence his testi mony. Mr. Dodge, through his trustee In bankruptcy, is suing Frederick A. Kribs and Willard N. Jones for $614,000, which he says he lost In a timber deal with them. Mr. Dodge had testified that Mr. Nash, one of the Kribs attor neys, had offered him $25,000 if he would testify in their favor. Mr. Clark was cross-examining B. J. vaugnn, cashier of the Dodge com panies, yesterday. Thomas Mannix. at torney for Mr. Dodge, objected, to the method of cross-examination, savtner Mr. Clark would not allow the witness to answer questions in full. "Evidently another conspiracy against you," remarked Mr. Clark. "I want to say about the consDiraev eaid Mr. Mannix, "the only conspiracy I have charged was the attempted bribery of one of our witnesses, Mr. Clark, and we have proved it." Perjury Charge la Made. "Yes," retorted the other, serenely, "and when you charged that you com mitted the most cold-blooded and de liberate perjury" ever committed in court." "I notice that you didn't dare to cross-examine Mr. Dodge on it." "Oh, well, we have got the physical facts where we want them in that case," said Mr. Clark. "You didn't dare to cross-examine him," persisted Mr. Mannix. "That shows who is committing perjury." "And I just want that to go on the record that it was cold-blooded and deliberate," said Mr. Clark, picking up a list of figures and turning to the witness to resume the cross-examina-tit.il That ended the controversy the only .one di. ..ng the entire day that served to enliven the otherwise dull proceed ings. Mr. Mannix has declared his Intention to call back to the witness stand Percy Allen, a Portland lumber man, to give further evidence regard ing the bribery charge. Dodse Cashier Crou-Eumlocd. All day Mr. Vaughn, the cashier, was on the witness stand, with Mr. Clark questioning him closely on the books of the Dodge companies. The con struction of a logging road into the Skamania County timber belt, in Wash ington, occupied the entire day. Mr. Clark insisted on a strict accounting for every cent spent on the construc tion of the road, and questioned the witness closely with regard to each Item. It was on the construction of this railroad, under a contract with Messrs. .Jones and Kribs, that Mr. Dodge said his companies went "broke." The fail ure to complete the contract, he says, brought a strict forfeiture clause to work, and he lost his entire Interest In the timber land. The cross-examination of Mr. Vaughn will be resumed Monday morning. The ease will not be heard today, other court business occupying the attention of Judge Kavanaugh. The Dodge suit now has been on trial three full weeks, and the plaintiffs rase is not completed. Mr. Mannix has indicated that there is but little more of his testimony to go in, and with the examination of Mr. Allen on the bribery charge. It is believed, he will complete his case.

Every precaution to eliminate all possible danger has been taken. A fire pump has been installed with a capacity of 1000 gallons per minute and a pressure of fifty pounds to the square inch. This pump con-" forms to the latest demands of the local Fire Department and the underwriters' code. With its numerous standpipes and hose reels distributed throughout the building, this pump is equivalent to the largest fire engine in the city and a corps of efficient fire fighters. In addition, an elaborate sprinkler sys tem has been installed.

Fitting, in every way, was the programme arranged, and Port land may well be proud of its reception of the bell. YOUTH in the columns of well-drilled school children, with flags waving and faces shining with that wonderful asset Patriotism was there! OLD AGE in the now de pleted ranks of the Veterans, marching with bared heads in honor of the symbol they had fought for was there! YOUNG MANHOOD in the companies of soldiers marching with serious mien the hope of our country was there! Let us all, then, as Loyal Americans live up to the lesson of the Liberty Bell.
