FRUIT TREES GO EAST IN JOY OVER VICTORY CITY AVINS AS IMPORTANT POINT IX SUIT RESISTING ASSESSMENT. Case of Olson Against, the City Dis missed Edward Flamiigraa. Sen. tenccd. Deputy City Attorney Dunlway gained a point yesterday In the suit of "Willamette Steam Mills Lumbering & Manufacturing Company et al., resisting the assessment for the extension of North Sixteenth street from Upshur to Front. The case -was brought in the form of a petition for a review of the acts of the Common Coun cil. Mr. Duniway argued that the proper proceeding was "a suit In etjulty so the city can make a defense upon the merits of the controvery, and Judge Frazer eo held. The disputed assessments aggregate several thousand dollars. The petitioners contend that the Council was without jurisdiction, and that the record falls to show that notice was sent to the owners of the -property sought to be appropriated, and some other irregularities. Mr. DunJ way says the owners of the property to be taken were not made parties to the petition. He argued that a suit in equity was the proper course, and the city could then make a defense; it could not interpose on a writ of review and show what has been done independent of the record. He desired to prove the facts and to establish that the petitioners did have notice. Judge Frazer, in deciding that a suit in equity should be brought instead of the wr.t of review, stated that ft was the Intention of the law that such cases be tried on their merits and technical questions dis couraged. That McCunn Estate. In the contempt proceedings in the mat ter of the estate of P. C. McCann, de ceased. Judge Frazer yesterday directed John F. Logan, the administrator, to file an answer stating the fact of his having turned over the property of the estate to O'Day &. Tarpley, attorneys for the al leged heirs. The case, so iar as it con cerns Mr. Logan, will then be dismissed. Tho property amounts to about 57003, and is principally cash. The motion of O'Daj & Tarpley asking that the motion be dis missed requiring them to show cause why they should not be punished for contempt for not surrendering the property to the receiver appointed "by Judge Cleland, was denied. O'Day Sz Tarpley were given 10 days to answer why they have .not turned over the property. They have admitted its possession, and a future order by Judge Frazer will probably dispose of this part of the controversy. County Judge Cake ordered the McCann estate distributed to James ,McCann, Kate "Wood and Anna McDonough, residing in Pennsylvania, whom he held were the legal heirs. John F. Logan, administrator of the estate, then surrendered the property to O'Day & Tarpley, who appeared as at torneys for these heirs. Chester V. Dolph representing the State of Oregon, filed escheat proceedings disputing the title of these alleged heirs. Judge Cleland set aElde the order of the County Court and appointed a receiver, and ordered the property placed in the receiver's hands, pending the final disposition of the escheat case. This was not done, and the con tempt proceedings followed. "W. "W. Cot ton and "W. D. Fenton appeared as counsel for O'Day & Tarpley, and argued num erous objections to the surrender of the property to the receiver, among them that the McCann heirs had not been served with summons in the escheat case, and that O'Day & Tarpley were not parties at the time the receiver was appointed Mr. Cotton said tho McCann heirs weie en titled to their day In court, and had not had it Mr. Dolph explained that the cita tion had been regularly published.

The suit for damages of Peter Olsen against the City of Portland for malicious arrest was dismissed in the United States Circuit Court yesterday, and the plaintiff was permitted to withdraw the complaint. This suit was similar In some respects to a recent one from Oregon City, In which the demurrer to the complaint was sus tained. It is thought for this icason ap plication was made for withdrawal of complaint. Jacob Hartman, a native of Germany, was granted naturalization papers. Flnnnlsran Sentenced. Edward Flannigan. convicted of larceny of $60 frexn TV-Hlam S ewart, ws sentenced to 15 months In the penitentiary by Judge George yesterday. Fred Esham stole the money, and gave Flannigan $T0.

Local nursery men report that the demand for fruit trees this season is as brisk s usual, and in somo localities there is an Increased de mand. Small ordera are being filled daily. About the middle of the present month shipments to the Rocky Mountain states will begin, and then the trees av:11 go In large quantities.

The Board cf Portage Railway Commie sloncrs, consisting of Governor Gecr, Sec retary of State Dunbar and Treasurer Moore, today leased the strip of land owned by the state at the Cascade Locks to Clack &. Huff, of The Dalles. This strip of land is about 400xSOO feet and adjoins the Columbia River just aboA-e the locks. The land was acquired at the time the Portage Railway was constructed, and has been idle since the railway was abandoned. Recently the Cascade Construction Com pany asked tho Board of Commlss'oners to lease the land, and they called for bld3 for the use of the property. Two offers were submitted, one hy the Cascade Con struction Company, of $12 50 per month, and the other by Clark & Huff, of 530 "per month. Tho lease will terminate with tho convening or the next session of the Leg islature, as the Board would not make a lease for a longer term. Marlon County Assessment. The clerks in the office of County Asses sor Hobart are correcting the present ownership maps preparatory to making the ISO) assessment Thio work will be completed in about a week, and a force of field assistants will then be sent out to assess the property. It Is not known how many men will be put in the field, but probably not less than 12 will be thus em ployed. The many transfers of property this year have made It neceesary to make more than the usual number of changes In the pres ent ownership maps. In addition to these changes, the new road district law has required changes In the lines representing the road district boundaries. Thece alter ations haA'e been made and the maps will soon be up to date. In cery respect Marlon County's present ownership maps are ery valuable accessories to the office of the Assessor. Each map represents a township of land, and Is about six feet square. Every subdivision, farm, block or lot Is shown, together with Its dimensions and the namo of the owner. When a transfer Is made the name of the new owner is Inserted and a note Is made of tho book and page where the deed Is recorded. The maps are hung en rol lers, like window shades, and can be rolled up out of sight For the convenience of field assistants when out assessing prop erty, photographs of the maps hae been made and each man Is supplied with a photograph of the territory he Is to cover. He can thus check off each tract as he as sesses it and always has a record that will prevent his omitting any land. Afl these photographs are Intended more as a guide to the land than to tho owners. It Is not neceQ3ary to make new ones every year. Xctv Oregon Incorporations.
