Chief Stockton and members of the fire department spent several hours yesterday afternoon testing the hoae In use by tb deiiurtment. Several sec tions were found lo be defective and were laid aside fur repairs. The test proved conclusively the Importance of morn frequent trlala aa several section. even under IlKhl pressure, developed weak strfits which allowed the water to burnt forth and flood the atreets. The dittlcully experienced with rotten hose at the recent fire at Twelfth and l'ond atreeta furnishes unmistakeable evi dence of the necessity of frequent tests. The work of yesterday proved that the lefertlve section discovered on that night waa only one of many. Sheriff Llnvllle returned yesterday from a trip to Hear creek. He atatea that at Svenaen the farmera are suffer ing from the ravagea of what la known aa the "rut-worm," which is described aa a species of caterpillar. The Sven- sn district is literally Infested with the pest which prey upon aardens. destroying everything that la green and succulent. Mr. Llnvllle states that he saw trees that had been thoroughly Stripped of their leaves while fields of clover had been eaten off almost to the roots.

The steamship Hraemar, which waa on her way down the river, waa forced to throw out hr anchor and await de velopmenta.

The steamer Gertie la on the beach a short distance above Tongue Point and Is undergoing repairs to her bot tom aa a result of an accident which incurred on Sunday. The Gertie was on her way up the river to bring down a scow containing telegraph poles, owned by the Edwards Lumber Com pany. A short distance above Tongue Point at a point near the oil factory the steamer struck a submerged pile which recently had been sawed off and a largJ hole was torn In her bottom near where the engine waa located, Tha boat began sinking rapidly and she was Immediately headed to the shore, which she reached Just as the laat pound of steam had become ex hausted.

Some bore on their faces unmistakable evidences of hnnd-to-hand encountera'wlth briar bushes, whllo one was forced to go to his of fice on one leg. Some of the party swear awful venseance upon tha head of one of Its members, who, by the way. prldea himself upon his reputation as a timber cruiser. He assured the boys that he was posted on every trail In tha country; In fact, he knew every stump and goose-berry bush within m lea of K k UreeK. rnree unsuspeci Ing chaps followed the leadership of their confident guide. That wnicn fol lowed 1b and to relate. After traveling a mile or two on a supposed trail, the nnrtv became badly mixed up in scrub weed and pathless forests. They had about made up their minds to spend a night In the woods, when one of the members, with keener eyes than those of the guide, discovered a telephone wire, which soon led to the high road and deliverance. ., OREGON RED, MEN TO MEET TODAY Opening; of the Ninth Great Council Session.
