Don t you call me a thief!" shouted Johan Poulsen at Dr. Harry Lane. In Judge McGinn's department of the Circuit Court yesterday. At the same time the mlllowner. who was listening to the ex-Msvofs testimony In the case of the city of Portlan-J against the Inman Toulsen Lumber Company, shook hla flat at the doctor and started toward the witness stsnd where Dr. Lane was aeateu. Judge McGinn did not attempt to In terfere. He Just sat bark and grinned aa he had all afternoon at the verbal war which was malntlned between Dr. Lane and Georite S. Shepherd, attorney for the company, from the time the physician mounted the stand at :" P. IL until he was told "that's all" about 4:J' P. M. Mr. Poulsen recovered himself In a few moments and resumed hla seat. Staleaseat la Esplalaed. The fireworks started when Dr. Lane said In inwer to a question from At torney Shepherd thit. in his opinion, the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company had stolen the stiets from the city. After Mr. Toulsen's outburst lr. Lane explained that he has the greatest faith in the world In Mr. Poulaen's per sonal honesty, but that the action of hla company In occupying the atreeta In question and now refusing to acknowledge the city's title to them Is technically a theft. When court had adjourned for the . . i i . n who. temoer had U.J 111. Him ' - cooled considerably In the meantime, approached Ju.li McOInn and started to apologise for his conduct.

It created a little fun. and wa will let It go at that." Fatare braalk Coaeldere. The battle of repartee between Dr. Lane and Attorney ttuphrrd gave seat and entertainment to the trial of a case otherwise dulL The attorney bent hla efforts towards forcing the ex-Mayor to admit that there is no pressing need f.ir the opening of the streets. This the doctor finally admitted, but he con tinued hla answer to say that he has seen Portland grow from JSoo to !. . and that there Is no telling how valuable the streets may be In the fu- tU-sn t It a fa'l that this matter of forcing the company to open the atreeta Is a fad of yours. queried Attorney shepherd. . -All riant, call It a f id. If you wish, replied the uttness. "but I believe that ro.poratlona should debarred from sucking all the blood from the veins of the city." -What possible good would It do to have these streets opened? You have already pra.-tnally admitted that tlma might be saved in retting to only one particular little comer of the city?" the, doctor was asked. t ltj-a Rlgkta la lis. -(ranting that It ooe no Immediate good, the (act remains that the atreeta belong to the city. They are city prop erty and I want the Inman-l'oulsen Lumber Company to acknowledge tbla fact. They were Jumped, stolen from the city, and my tda In opening this controversy a few jears ago was so to establish the city's rights that they mav be always available." "Now. doctor." said Attorney . Shep herd, -put yourself In the place of Mr. Inman and Mr. Poulsen. If you had occupied city streets for years. Im proved them and believed you bad a legitimate right to them, how would you like to be at the behest of varying squads of politicians?" Dr. Lane laughed and returned an In consequential reply. Similar Case Cited. After all the evidence Is In It will be strictly np" to Judge Mrt.lnn. ac cording to the majority of authorltlea on the case, to determine what la Jus tice between the parties. A someahat parallel esse was de.id'd by the Su preme Court of the state In the case of Schooling aaalnst the City of Harris burg. The following language waa quoted In that decision: "But auch a corporation does not own and cannot own and cannot alien public st reel a or places, and no lachea on Its part or that of Its officers ran defeat the public right ther-to; yet there may grow up pruate rlxhta of nvre per suaalve force In the particular raae than those of the public." Tot word corporation as used refera to a municipal corporation In Ita pri vate capacity, and It will be Judge Mc Ginn's duty to decide whether or not , auch a right haa obtained In this caae. and the Supreme Court will likely be the Anal arbiter In any event.
