HEARING BY COMMISSION
Slate Board Turns Searchlight on
Withdrawal of Passenger Trains
1 1 and 1'2 From the Portland
San Francisco Run.
Other than to say that "climatic condi
tions," the Harriman policy of retrench
ment and an alleged lack of travel war
ranted the action, resident officials of the
Southern Pacific, Company, who testified
before the Oregon Railroad Commission
in this city yesterday, had no defense to
offer for the company in withdrawing
trains 11 and 12 from the Portland-ban
Francisco run and making Roseburg the
southern terminal of those trains. The
inquiry, which ended yesterday with a
meeting in the Wells-Fargo building, in
cluded previous sessions at Ashland and
Grants Pass. Commissioners C. B. Aitch
ison and Oswald West, who received the
testimony at yesterday's hearing, have
taken the case under advisement and
will not report their findings until they
have had time to consider the many ex
hibits already offered and to be sub
mitted by the railroad company which
was represented by W. D. Fenton.
This investigation was Initiated about
a month ago, shortly following the an
nouncement of the curtailed schedule of
these trains on November 10, by the
members of the commission. Immedi
ately the plan was heartily indorsed by
the residents of Grants Pass and Ash
land who complained vigorously of the
Inadequacy of the train service in that
section of the state. Involved in the in
vestigation, which has taken on a wider
cope than was originally intended,-' are
the questions of sufficiency of the train
service furnished by the Southern Pa
cific Company in both directions between
Portland and Ashland and the. general
convenience of the schedules now in ef
fect. Railroad's Witnesses Testify.
"Only soclalistsand anarchists are com
plaining of the revised schedule of these
trains as they affect Southern Oregon,"
said J. D. . Heard, of Medford. who was
one of the witnesses for the railroad
company yesterday, but when asked to
give the names of such persons, the
memory of the witness failed him and
he refused to Indict any of his fellow
.townsmen either as a socialist or an
anarchist.
Several other residents of Medford and
particularly of points in the Willamette
Valley testified in a similar strain, but
when questioned by either of the Rail
road Commissioners it was quite appar
ent that they were prejudiced witnesses.
It developed from their examination that
their satisfaction with the new train
schedule was due to the fact that since
the train had been discontinued at Rose
burg, it had been possible for the. rail
road company to furnish a more depend
able service, the train. rarely being late
as was the case when the schedule was
operated from Portland to San Fran
cisco. William McMurray, general passen
ger agent for the Harriman lines in
Oregon, was the principal witness for
the Southern Pacific at yesterday's
hearing. In explaining why the com
pany had found it expedient to convert
trains 11 and 12 into a local train run
ning from Portland to Roseburg and
return, he' said that under the former
service climatic conditions had made It
Impossible for the company to operate
these trains on time. Besides, he testi
fied that a falling off in traffic and a
necessary curtailment in expenses, to
gether with a desire on the part of the
company to give the people of Oregon
a service oji which they could depend,
suggested the change that was made.
Another reason assigned by Mr. Mc
Murray for cancelling the through
morning train from this city to San
Francisco was the aversion of the trav
eling public to patronizing other than
the night train, which, he said, made it
Impossible for the company to operate
No. 11 at a profit.
Doesn't Know Volume of Traffic.
Mr. McMurray was asked to inform
the Commission what the" travel on No.
11 between Roseburg and Ashland and
Intermediate points amounted to when
the old service was in effect, but he re
plied that the company's auditor had
been unable to furnish him with the
requested data. The company was able
only to furnish statements showing the
number of passengers carried between
Grants Pass and Medford, but no fig
ures were given touching on the traffic
between Roseburg and Ashland, either
north or southbound. In answer to a
question as to the advisability of put
ting on a local to run between those
points and connect at Roseburg with
trains 11 and 12, Mr. McMurray consid
ered the plan would not solve the
trouble, for the reason that such a train
would have to leave Ashland between
3 and S A. M. In order to make connec
tions. '
- Further to support his statements of
the difficulty that was experienced by
the Southern Pacific Company in profit
ably operating its morning California
train out of this city, Mr. McMurray
called attention to the schedule of the
transcontinental roads operating out of
Chicago showing- that fully four-fifths
of those trains leave that city after 6
P. M. daily. When reminded by Com
missioner Aitchlson that the Southern
Pacific, under its new schedule, was
running two trains to California at
night and none In the morning, Mr. Mc
Murray answered by saying that the
morning train to Roseburg, a distance
of 198 miles, was considered a long
distance train. The witness further
testified that when trains 11 and 12
were running to California, Nos. V1S
and 16 were required frequently to run
In two sections in order to accommo
date the business that would not take
the morning train.
Morning Trains in California.
Commissioner Aitchlson referred to
the official timetable of the Southern
Pacific Company and asked if the com
pany had not found it practical to run
trains leaving in the morning on long
distance runs. He cited the San Fran-cisco-Dunsmuir
branch, over which, be
fore the new schedule was announced,
Tour trains were, operated dally, three
of which left San Francisco before 6
o'clock in the afternoon. In explana
tion of that condition, Mr. McMurray
said geographical conditions 'on the
California branch were different, the
company operating trains on each side of
the Sacramento River as far as Tehama.
Attorney Fenton followed by asking the
witness what was the population of San
r riuiuiKu, Liits eviuem purpose Demg to
show that a larger number of trains were
required running out of San Francisco
than from Portland. Mr. McMurray re
plied that San Francisco, Including Oak
land, Alameda and Berkeley, had a population-
of 500,000, but when requested by
Commissioner Aitchlson to tell how the
population of the territory between San
F"rancisco and Dunsmuir compared with
that between Portland and Ashland,
said he could not make any compara
tive estimate.
I R. Fields, superintendent of the
Southern Pacific lines In Oregon, testified
that while It would not be impracticable
for the company to put on a local train
between Roseburg and Ashland, it would
be Just as expensive to the company as
to extend trains 11 and 12 from Roseburg
to that city, since the same train equip
ment and number of trainmen would be
required for its operation. Superintend
ent Fields explained the operation of the
accommodation freight by which the mail.
Is being delivered to the stations between
Roseburg and Ashland.
Xew Schedule in a Week.
Superintendent Fields Informed the
Commission that the Southern Pacific ex
pected to place in effect another schedule
December 29, by which train No. 13. which
now leaves Portland at 11:30 P. M.,"wi!l
leave 30 mlntues later, or midnight. This
will bring It into Roseburg at 7:15 A. M.
Leaving that city at 7:30, Grants Pass
will be reached at 12:15 P. M. and Ash
land at 2:30 P. M. This train will then
make the same stops as No. 15. By the
new schedule the difference In the time of
arrival of trains 13 and 15 at all Southern
Oregon points will be Increased from 30
minutes to an hour, which the railroad
officials feel will meet the demands of
the residents of that section of the statu
for an Improved train service.
C. W. Stinger, city ticket agent for the
Harriman lines, testified that the great
majority of people purchasing tickets for
California or intermediate points, espe
cially when going any great distance, ar
ranged for accommodations on the night
train.
Other , witnesses testifying during the
day were: J. D. Olwell, J. A Enyart,
president Medford National Bank; J. A.
Perry, president Medford Commercial
Club; E. A. Hafer, E. C. Gaddis, H. U.
Lumsden, L. B. Warner, Dr. J. F. Reddy,

of Medford; Dr. J. P. Wallace, Mayor of
Albany; J. L. Stockton, a Salem mer

OREGON . UNIVERSITY always saves
the best for the last. On Thanksgiv
ing day the university sends her stalwart
knights of the gridiron to do battle with
the sons of Multnomah, and then later
comes the mandolin and glee club to cap
ture the hearts of the alumni and the
hosts of theater-goers who are always on
the lookout for something good. The en
tertainment given last night at the Helllg
Theater, the songs that were sung, the
stage setting, with its countless college
emblems, took back again for a brief
hour and a half those who sat in front to
the "dear old college days," when the
heart was ''young and twenty."
There were the same catchy songs by
the students, good music by the mandolin
players, and a sketch or two thrown In
that kept the large audience in a tempest
of laughter. Professor .1. M. Glen may
well be proud of the young gentlemen
who compose his mandolin and glee club,
for they were a tuneful and funmaklng
lot. The opening number, two songs ''O,
Oregon," and "Hail, Oregon" sung by
the glee club, were splendidly done and
paved the way for the evening's pro
gramme. This was followed by "Sor
ella," rendered by the mandolin club.
The sketch, "A Proposal." by Mr. Ger
manus, caught the crowd quickly. Mr.
Gesmanus seemed to be perfectly at
home before the footlights, , and as a
laugh-producer weir, wait until Keith's
agents hear of him.
The song "Won't That Be Joyful?'
sung by Messrs. Steelquist, Burker Neal
and Davles, was one of the hits of the
evening. It was a nonsense skit and it
sent the audience into roars of laughter.
Professor Glen sang Gene Branscombe's
"Boot and Saddle." He was In splendid
voice and his rendition of the difficult
song was so pleasing that he was forced
to respond to an encore. Mr. "Van Dusen,
leader of the rooting rooters of the uni
versity, gave a clever burlesque calle
"A Tragedy in Three Acts." Two pieces
of cloth, both white, and one red piece
and two chairs helped him out. Mrl Van
Dusen played the part of the fellow be
loved by two sisters In a way that Indi
cated that he knew something about the
game.
The closing skit, "Getting Ready for
the Junior Prom," with Mr. Van Dusen
as the student in love and with a well-developed
grouch, waile it dragged at times,
must have taken many of the grown-ups
down in front back to the days when
they also were primping for .the Junior
prom. The lesson in waltzing was well
done by two of the students. Any way
It was worth while, and Professor Glen
and his glee club always find a hearty
welcome when the time of year rolls
around for their appearance.

BANK WILL OPEN
T
President Watson Announces
Resumption of Merchants
National Is Assured.
BACK 'FROM WASHINGTON
Head of Institution Given Every En
icouragement by Controller Ridge
ly Xo Change in the List of
the Bank's Officials.
The Merchants National Bank will
reopen and resume business within a
short time. The length of this pre
liminary period depends upon the ar
rangements remaining to be made by
the bank officials.
President Watson, of the bank, re
turned last night from Washington,
bringing with him the assurances of
Controller Ridgley that the bank will
be permitted to reopen. The Controller
discussed the report of Bank Exam
iner Wilson with 'President "Watson
and expressed the opinion that tho
Merchants National is perfectly sol
vent and should be permitted to resume
business He encouraged President
Watson in every way and advised the
reopening of the bank through the en
listment of additional capital stock
and the calling In of outstanding ac
counts wherever possible.
"The Controller is satisfied that our
bank is solvent," said President Wat
son, upon his return to Portland from
Washington, late last night. "He will
permit us to reopen Just as soon as
things are in shape to do so. I cannot
say yet Just when this will be. I
have not yet had a chance to confer
with the other officials of the bank,
and until then, I will not know how
soon we can bring about the resump
tion of business. I am satisfied that
we can take up the business where we
left off,, and when the bank reopens it
will be stronger than ever."
Conferences between the bank officials
and Bank Examiner Wilson will be held
during the next few days and the final
arrangements made to resume business.
It is understood these will consist of call
ing In what outstanding accounts can be
collected and In bringing in outside
money by increasing the capital stock to
$500,000. It may be necessary to appoint
a temporary receiver for, a short time to
facilitate collections and protect the
bank's Interests, however, it is likely
that this step will not 'be necessary and
that within two months at the latest, the
doors .of- the bank will be opened for
business.
It is hot believed there will be any
change in the official list when the Insti
tution resumes. Confidence Is general In
the management of the present officers
and admiration Is expressed for the gal
lant fight made by the bank against the
run that finally forced it to suspend. Ad
ditional directors may be named as the
result of the enlistment of outside capi
tal for additional capital stock. Presi
dent Watson, it is believed, will be re
tained in that position, as will, undoubt
edly, the other officials.
PORTUGAL EXILE IS WARNED
BOM MIGUEL MUST CEASE HIS
PLOTTING.
Pretender to Throne Told to Con
duct His Intrigues Outside
of Austria.
VIENNA, Austria, Dec. lt.-Dom Mi
guel of Braganza has been called before
Emperor Francis Joseph and told in
plain language that he must get out of
Austria or stop plotting here to seize
the throne of Portugal.
Miguel has been trying to take' advan
tage of the upheaval in Portugal to
press his claims. Unluckily for his
hopes, he talked Indiscreetly to an inter
viewer. When the Interview was printed
the Emperor immediately summoned the
pretender, who resides at the Chateau of
Siebensteln, in lower Austria, and is
colonel of an Austrian regiment of -hussars.
The aged monarch told Miguel that he
and his whole family would be put
across the Austrian frontier if he at
tempted to conspire against the present
King of Portugal.
The Emperor does not like Miguel, al
ways extravagant and dissipated, who
was Crown Prince Rudolph's companion
at the mysterious tragedy at Meyerling,
which almost broke the Emporer's heart.
- This Dom Migutl Is the son of that
Dora Miguel who, while regent In 1828,
seized the throne of Portugal. He was
deposed with the aid of Dom Pedro of
Brazil and Lord Napier of Magdala In
1S34, when he accepted as a solace an an
nual income of $75,000 and went into exile.
The present Dom Miguel has never ap
peared at court tiere since the Crown
Prince's romance suddenly ended. He
has six sisters, who all married wealthy
men of royal blood, and are freely draw
ing on their fortunes to further his
present aspirations.
The members of the family are loyal
to each other under all circumstances.
Its head talks of his sacrifices, but the
real sacrifices are being made by his
sisters and other relatives, who would
beggar themselves to place him on the
throne.
His old mother. Duchess Adelaide, lives
In seclusion at the Bendlctlne convent
of St. -Cecilia at Ryde, Isle of Wight.
She has sent her famous diamonds to
be sold that Dom Miguel might not lack
money to further his plots.
WOMEN RULERS IN EGYPT
Translation of Papyrus Shows They
Ruled Household.
TOLEDO, O., Dec. 21. A marriage con
tract more than 2000 years old. discov
ered In a tomb near Cairo, Egypt, and
now In the collection of the Museum of
Art, Toledo, O., has been deciphered by
the Egyptologists at the University of
Strassburg, Germany, and found to be
from a historic standpoint one of the
most Important documents brought to
light in recent years.
George W. Stevens, director of the To
ledo Museum, says:
"The papyrus determines two matters
of great importance. It establishes the
period of an Egyptian Pharaoh, whose
time of reign has been hitherto unknown,
and gives us documentary evidence of the
exalted financial position accorded to
married women in Egypt three centuries
before Christ a position almost un
dreamed of and unhoped for by the most
MONTHS
enthusiastic new woman of these modern
days. The lpst Pharaoh', whose period of
regin is established, Is Khabbasha, and
the time -341 B. C.
"From the translation It Is established
that in case the wife repudiated the hus
band, she allowed him to take back half
his dower. TJils is the reverse of modern
customs, especially In European countries,
where the wife is expected to contribute
the dot or dower. The Egyptian husband
not only received nothing from the bride,
but had to put up a bonus to make him
self a matrimonial possibility. The docu
ment shows that in case of a separation
he was allowed by the wife to take but
one-third of the moneys they should have
acquired together during the time they
were married." .
MAKES AN ASSIGNMENT
The Commonwealth Trust Company
Formally Admits Insolvency.
The Commonwealth Trust Company
formally "gave up the ghost" yesterday
by filing a petition in insolvency with the
State Circuit Court. The petition was ac
companied by a deed of assignment,
whereby all the company's property was
assigned to A. K. Bentley. It will con
sequently fall to his lot to unravel the
tangle.
The document officially announcing the
failure of the company is very general in
its statements as to obligations and
assets. No figures are given. The deed
of assignment merely enumerates the
assets In genera! terms, such as estate,
effects, choses in action; evidences of
debt, claims, accounts, dues and demands.
These are to be disposed of, so the
assignment states, either at private or
public sale, and the proceeds are to be
used for the equal benefit of all creditors.
In reference to the manner in which' it
ran on the shoals the simple statement
Is made that losses, misfortunes and em
barrassments In business have rendered
it impossible for the company to pay out
In full.
The deed of assignment to Bentley is
signed by D. L. Keyt, president and Wil
liam M. Dodge, secretary, of the defunct
institution.
O. R. & S. DEMAND IS $400,000
Sets High Price on Terminal Rights
Sued for by Hill.
The O. R. & N. Co. Is still disinclined
to grant terminal privileges to the Port
land & Seattle Railway Company. ' An
swering the new corporation suit for con
demnation of a terminal entrance, the
f. R. & N. presented a voluminous docu
ment In the Circuit Court yesterday. The
defendant company recites that tts own
terminal facilities are Inadequate and
that it would suffer much Inconvenience
and great loss by the condemnation of
its block 224. as asked by the Portland &
Seattle Company.
Should the court see' fit, however, to
condemn the property in litigation for use
by the new line, the O. R. & N. asks to
be awarded the sum of $400,000. This
amount, it is stated, " would be only Just
compensation for transfer of the property
and the consequent damage to adjacent
land held by the O. R. & N.
Teamster Demands Damages.
E. Rogoway accuses the Portland Rail
way, Light & Power Company of having
operated one of Its cars across the Madison-street
bridge In. such a manner as to
run him down without warning. His ex
press wagon was smashed, his horse wst
Injured and he received personal Injuries
of a serious nature. The accident oc
curred October 4. Rogoway says the car
was going at a high rate of speed and
that the motorman did not ring the gong.
Rogoway asks $5000 damages.

The will of A. S. Shaw was filed for

Shaw, a daughter, gets $1000 by the terms
of the will, the balance going to the

SUES RAILROAD FOR $40,000
Stella Laury Asks Big Damages for
' Personal Injuries.
Forty thousand dollars is the fortune
asked. by Stella Laury of the Northern
Pacific Terminal Company. Her 'claim
was presented in the State Circuit
Court yesterday in the form of a dam
age suit. In her complaint, the plain
tiff recites grave, horrible injuries that
she sustained October 25 in being run
down by a Southern Pacific engine.
She was crossing the terminal grounds
on North Front street when struck by
a switch engine and dragged several
yards. She lost a leg and was fearfully
bruised and mangled, being crippled
and disfigured for life. The suit is the
largest damage suit filed In Portland
In several months.
The Southern Pacific Company is
likewise made defendant In a damage
suit for a considerable amount. Selina
Ross complains that she was a passen
ger on the line between Portland and
Cottage Grove last June. There was a
collision in which she was badly
shaken up and hurt. For doctors,
medicines and a nurse she says she
expended $288. In addition to that
amount she wants $5000 damages.
