OREGON CITY, Or., Nov. 19. (Spe
cial.) Whlla City Kngineer Miller and
F. J. Albright, chairman of the Coun
cl elevator committee, are convinced
nothing of a aerioua nature 1 wrong,
the eventh-treet elevator 1 not work
ing properly and operation ba been
stopped until the source) of the trou
ble shall be found and corrected. The
municipal lift, which was designed to
curry passengers to and from the busi
ness section below the bluff and the
residence section above, waa operated
for the first time this week.
The trouble is with the pressure, and
the City Engineer I convinced that
It source Is in a valve in me supply
pipe, which run from tb reservoir
to the elevator. Aa the elevator rises
In the abaft, tba pressure soes down
and la usually slow la regaining Its
normal condition.
However, the elevator I declared
perfectly safe even with the pressure
low, a ample provision have been
mad to keep the cage from dropping-,
even if the water were ahut off entirely.
The elevator has been running for
general public traffic part of the limo
for two days, and the large number
who patronise it Is a surprise even to
the city officials, who favored it. Tb
Seventh-street step are practically de
serted while the elevator is in operation
and many go several block out of
their way to use the elevator.

Mr. Welle I rge Holder Have re

SALEM. Or Nov. (Special.)
Whether their policies are of any value
and a bat steps they shall take to col
lect their claim are the subject of
numaroua letter received I"' week
by Insurance Commissioner Wells from
members of tba Mutual Eire Company
and Ibe Beaver btata Merchant' Mutual
Eire Insurance Association, both of
I'orlland.
Commissioner Well said today that
he had been advised by II. D. Wagnon.
Jr, secretary of both companies, that
these concerns ara not Issuing policies,
and that consequently be had been led
to believe that all policies had been
cancelled. Letters received, however.
by IBe Commissioner, be said. show. that
member do not care to urrenuer tneir
policies, and some have taken out In
surance in other companies.
"Those member who secure new in
surance policies." sftjd Wells, -should
Immediately surrender their old poli
cies In order to avoid misunderstanding
in event of a loss, for legally these two
mutual companies are sliil in existence
and lb policies of the member are
yet In effect. In case of a loss each
company In liable for a pro rata amount
of the damage or loss. Members
should read their policies where this
provision Is plainly set forth.- I would
emphasise that those member who do
not secure new Insurance ahould ascer
tain from the officer in what position
they would be in collecting their insur
ance If thev suffered a fire-loss."
