Return aid be thought he would rest his case late in the afternoon, but if there is an extended cross-examination or wit nessea. it is oune likely to be Wednes day morning oefore the Government faM ends. Yesterday was the 18th trisl dsy since the case was called before deral Judge Bean on July t. The defense will take probably at least 10 lav. and nerhans !. and the argu merits of the lawyers are likely to fill another week. There are two attor neys for the Government, and nine at torneys for the various defendants, and they all probably will talk to the lUTT. The question of "stock liability" cut an Important figure In yesterday a inai proceedings. Liability Dlaerepaaey Ckarsed. Through Hirsm S. House, expert ac rountant. the Government emphasised tiie fact that In various statements and In reports to the stockholders, no stock liabilities bad been listed among the romranv's liabilities. This, according to Mr. House, gave the company a large apparent balance In assets over liabilities, whereas If the -stock liabilities" had been Includ ed, the balance would have stood the other way. The defense, on the other hand, con tends that there ia no such thing saa rornoratton's having- "stork liability Martin L- Pipes, chief of counsel for the defense, who cross-examined Mr. Mouse at length regarding "stock lia bility." announced that the derense would later put expert accountants of Its own on the stand who would testify that the company was perfectly correct in not including; It on its statements. Mr. House testified to many other al. lea-ed discrepancies in the various state ments as to assets and liabilities made by the company. OsbIss-Js la Ratlaa Allesed. In a report made by the L'nlted States Cashier Company to Bradstreet October tl. 1911. ha testified, ,:i.5e7.T was listed In the liabilities under bills pay able, but nothing was said of a balance of 1117.23. l due on patents, most of which was later paid; neither waa there Included in the liabilities an item of t$30.72 on miscellaneoua accounts pay able. $255.

LcMo.in on commissions, nor $illj.8i. commissions due agents lie testified that the company reported ita patents at what It had actually paid, and not on what It bad agreed to pay, the total of which should nave been Included In the liabilities. Mr. House testified at the same time that the company had approximately 110.040 more in assets than listed in this report. On cross-examination, how ever, he explained that this was ac counted for by reporting at what had been paid for them, not for what the company bad agreed to pay. Ready Cash Given at X United States Attorney Realties ques tioned 31 r. House aa to bis examination of the books and records of the com pany to show assets and liabilities at the time It quit business in Portland and remove! Its machinery to Terre Haute. Ind, January SI. 1H. "How much cash was there on hand then?" asked Mr. Reames. "There was t3.S." replied the wit ness. Total assets, including valuations of t4a.115.S placed on patents, amounted then to $77.3JO.J. The company had total actual liabil ities of las.703.8S and had issued stock to the amount of tl.l.213.al. leaving approximately $1700 of the capitalisa tion of 11,200.000 not issued, he testi fied. Mr. Heaae ea ftaad Again Today. Mr. House said the company had not Included in Ita assets 197.468.27 paid for models and developments, the reason being that It had not Included this amount In a statement of April 10, 1913, to stockholders. He went on to testify that the com pany had sold, from August 17. 1909. to January. 31. 114. 119.S23 shares of stork, for which had been received a total of ll.il 1.J35.2. In addition, he said, the company got $21.47. t for stock bought from W. S. Overlin. who developed the models of its money ma chines, making a total of 11. 633,111.32 received for stock. "Was that all cash? put in Attorney Pipes. "No. It waa not all cash. said Mr. House. Immediately afterward. Judge Bean adjourned court. Mr. House will be on the atand when court convenes this morning, and his testlmany and rross-examlnation may take up the whole day. Oampflre Girls Go to Crater Lake.

No. I'm not making a point of studying cocdttlons. of social service or anything Just seeing my country. This is my Tlrst visit to Ore gon and I am enchanted." Mrs. Field thinks the West does not overestlmste at all when It "boosts" for Itself. She seems to have caught the spirit of the West. The fair at San Francisco received her unstinted praise. The Court of the Universe, the four seasons and the AiV Hi - fiMlP' Ages, the exhibit of France and the Oregon building received special men tion. Mrs. Field was eloquent in her praise of the "pastel city by the sea," as the Kxposition may be termed. The rebuilding of San Francisco was a marvel to her. That a place would be laid low by fire as it wss and rise so soon she declared typified the cour age and strength and inspiration of the Western country. And as for the possi bilities of Portland, this woman who counts her money In many millions said she felt sure there is a rich future in store. , .

Paving Berne Done on Sandy, Base Line aad Powell Valley Rentes. Way for Antes Outlined. As a result of paving activity on the Sandy, Base Line and Powell Val ley roads the only feasible way to ap proach the Columbia River Highway at the present time Is via the Sec tion Line road, which ia now In splen did condition. The Base Line Is closed and the Sandy and Powell Valley roads are so badly torn up that motorists are ad vised to avoid them entirely until the way has been cleared sufficiently to permit safe and comfortable travel. The motorist intending to travel to the entrance of the Columbia River Highway should follow Hawthorne avenue to Ladd's addition and drive through Ladd's Addition to Division street. The continuation of this street Is the Section Line road that leads on to' the northern edge of Gresham. Instead of going south direcly into Gresham or going north over the road leading to the Twelve Mile House and Fairvlew, the prcper course lies straight ahead. After going east for about two miles the road Jogs to the right, then goes east again - over a winding grade. The motorist then drops down gradually until he comes to a road to the left and soon after making Ihis turn he crosses a creek and then swings back north again until he comes to a church building at the corner. Then he 6wlngs to the right and goes down a grade to the Portland Automobile Clubhouse on the banks of the Sandy River. From this point all motorists are familiar with the course leading across the bridge and around the hills through Sprlnfj-dal and Chanticleer to the entrance of the Columbia River Highway proper. It is possible to drive to Crown Point, but the High way from that point to Latourell is closed for paving and all who wish to continue beyond Latourell will have to follow the old road that In cludes the notorious Latourell hilL The road beyond Latourell is open all the way to Hood River and The Dalles. 63 LUMBER CARG0ES LEAVE July Shipments, Including Rafts, Ttal 48,857,004 Feet.

She left the Columbia River on her last voyage, April 21, 1914, and was picked up by French cruisers, which ordered her to Brest and she reached there August 20. The vessel carried wheat and barley valued "at 372,151 that was dispatched by M. H. Houser. The bark is of 2108 tons net register and is 289 feet long, with a beam of 42 feet and depth of hold of 24 feet. SKIPPER CRUISES OX LAXD Capaln "Jim" Shaver Surprises Marshfield With Trip and Car. Navigating the largest and most at tractive car that has yet appeared in the streets of Marshfield, a big six cylinder automobile. Captain James W. Shaver, of "the Shaver Transportation company, naa icmmcu inci , spent on the coast, accompanied by Mrs. Shaver and their guests, Mr. and Mrs. J. A. English, of Hood River. The party went through the Wil lamette Valley and reached the coast by way of Roseburg to Myrtle Point. They were as far south as Bandon and made Coquille and other points, re turning by way of the Alleghany route. Captain Shaver said despite the fact there are three peaks 1200 feet high and the road was narrow, while in places it waa muddy because of being sheltered by heavy timber, it was ne gotiated without accident, though for 35 miles chains had to be used. In all more than 600 miles were covered. DREDGE PIPES LENGTHENED Deepening of Channel Necessitates Chinook Extending Equipment. ASTORIA. Or.. Aug. 2. (Special.) To enable her to work more advantage ously in the deepened channel at the mouth of the river, the 30-lnch suction pipes on the dredge Chinook were lengthened yesterday by 10 feet ana a section seven feet in length was added to each of the 20-inch pipes. This makes the pipes 88 feet long. The new section arrived 6unday morning and the work of installation was com menced at once, so that the dredge can resume operations on the bar to morrow. While the thick fog prevailed at the mouth of the river during a good portion of last week, and the dredge Chinook thus lost 24 hours, the craft pumped up about 70,000 cubic yards of sand and carried out to sea. Since the Chinook commenced work in that channel last April she has handled 800,000 cubic yards, or ap proximately 1,600,000 tons of sand, and before the season ends she probably will have removed fully 1,250,000 cubic yards of material from the shoal at the mouth of the river. When she went to work in that channel the deepest water was less than 26 feet. Now the minimum is between 33 and 34 feet, and in the greater portion of the channel the depth is 36 feet- COLLISIOX CASE IS STARTED Inspectors. Hear Testimony on North ern Pacific-Oneonta Crash. .
