Bids were also opened for ballast to be used in a locomotive crane ordered for municipal dock No. 1, and the Helser & Unden Machine Works will provide the material for $78.50. - The Commission signed a. lease with the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Rail road for a right of way across block 22, East Portland, so a track can be built to connect with the line of the Southern Pacific on East First street for switching to dock No. 2. A con tract for laying the track was awarded to Guthrie, McDougall & Co. A con tract had previously been entered Into with the Southern Pacific for the con nection. The Oregon & California Railroad ap plied for a revocable permit to con struct tracks across several streets be tween East Glisan and East Oak streets, the rest of the line to be on private right of way owned by the company paralleling East First street. Action was deferred until it is ascer tained if the city or others would have the right to build crossing tracks on those streets. It will also be Insisted that a common-user feature be insert ed in the permit. Resarvey Resolution Adopted. To extend a sewer under warehouse B, being built in the rear of dock No. 1. over which there is now a fill of from 12 to 22 feet deep, the Commission voted to share the expense of an out let with the city, providing its portion did not exceed $100. The estimated cost is $150.

Dealing with the East Side switch ing situation. Commissioner Kellaher said Jio had been informed that the railroads were willing to have either the city or one of the lines undertake al switching in the city on a belt line system, so as to save the expense of etch maintaining engines and crews for the work. It was moved that the railroad officials be asked if such a step was contemplated seriously. Chief Engineer Hegardt was author ized to proceed with certain repairs at dock No. 3. St. Johns, which are esti mated to cost $100. BEAVER CARRIES EXCURSION 'Big Three Liner to Be Turned Over to O.-W. R. & X. Club Thursday. Hundreds of O.-W. R. & N.
