late in the afternoon, but if there is
an extended cross-examination or wit

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

torneys for the various defendants,
and they all probably will talk to the

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

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.

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.

tioned 31 r. House aa to bis examination

fied. Mr. Heaae ea ftaad Again Today.
Mr. House said the company had not
Included in Ita assets 197.468.27 paid for

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

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

counts her money In many millions
said she felt sure there is a rich future
in store. , .

ROADS SHUT TO TRAVEL
SECTIO. LIXB BEST APPROACH
TO COLUMBIA RIVER HIGHWAY.
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.

Capaln "Jim" Shaver Surprises
Marshfield With Trip and Car.
Navigating the largest and most at

the streets of Marshfield, a big six

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-

The action of S. S. S.. the famous blood
purifier, is direct from the moment it
enters the stomach. Unlike food that
must be acted upon by the digestive
Juices, S. S. S. goes at once into the
blood, and in less than five minutes has
traversed the entire circulation.
It now rapidly spreads its medicinal
action in the fine network of blood ves
sels and is like giving the blood a
thorough bath, to overcome eczema,
blood risings, boils and other eruptive
conditions. It can not harm any, part of
the system. It does not lodge' in the
joints as do mercury, arsenic and other
minerals frequently to bo found in
blood remedies. It is a natural medi
cine for the blood, just as essential to
health if germs have gotten the upper
hand as is nutritious food if after a
spell of sickness the body calls for nour
ishment. Wherever you go you are
sure to meet some one who used S. S. S.
for the blood and. is a willing witness
to its wonderful power to overcome
blood troubles. Tou can obtain S. S. S.
in almost any drug store in the TJ. S.,
a significant fact as to its worth and
its sterling reputation. Get a bottle
today. It will do you good. Write to
The Swift Specific Co.. 104 Swift Bide..
Atlanta, Ga.. if the directions with the
bottle do not fully cover your case.
