A. Marquam against the Real Estate Title Guarantee & Trust. company was submitted before- Judge SearitbiB morning anOhesLth defense was - begun. . Robert Livingstone, agent for the Oregon Mortgage -company! was the first 'Witness called. He had ad vanced Mr. Marquam' 125,000 on some South Portland property, ana he had to foreclose the mortgage in 1895., There was a deficiency of 6,476 in the pro ceeds of the sale and he levied on the Marquam building because - his clients had . instructed him to begin a fore? closure. J. Thorburn Ross of the Title company had not asked hlttt tq f oreclose; in fact had opposed his action. Living stone, sold the. lien to a man named Parker for $1,600. He did not knqw whether Parker acted for; Marquam. He eaid the Marquam building on a basis of an income Of 5 per-cent would be worth 1400,000.: - " William M. Ladd testified that he had appraised the. building at $3.75,000 in 1300. He waa passing by Mr. Ross office one day and Ross called him in' and asked him to make ah estimate of the valuation. ' This was before the sale of the building. Lata .yesterday afternoon Attorneys Watson and Tanner, for Mr. Marquam, closely questioned T. T. Burkhart, sec-retaryc-r the THIe Ouarahtee" & Trust company as to -whether J... Thorburn Ross did not solicit the appointment as attorney- for the United States Mort' gage & Trust company to foreclose the lien on the property while at the same time he was acting as trustee for Mr. Marquam. Mr. Burkhart said he did not know of any correspondence to that effect, and that so far as he knew W. M. Gregory was . tho attorney in the case. Nor did he remember anything about a tejegram from the Mortgage company to the Title company, giving the latter an option on the property and that if it did not care to .exercise the option, the Mortgage1 company had responsible per sons who would pay the mortgage of $373,000, interest and liens. .The tele gram was said to have been received in Portland on" May 10, J901, - several months after the property had been Bold by the. sheriff at mortgage sale. Mr. Burkhart could not recall the date when the Title company took advantage of the option to purchase the property. PRISONER STABBED IN COUNTY JAIL In a quarrel with L. Thompson, a negro prisoner, Burt Goble, who is held in the county jail on a charge of rob bery, was cut arross the right cheek and severely Injured yesterday after noon. The quarrel arose over the deter mination of Thompson to tnake himself boss of the east corridor. . When- Goble resisted he was stabbed. Thompson sur rendered a piece of tin with which he said he had inflicted the injury, also a pocket-knife. He was' removed to the dungeon. , r GoMe's "wound wa:drsd by County Physician H'P. Geary.-The physician said this morning that the wound was painful but not serious. In his opinion It was not inflicted with' the tin. The cut had been made through the flesh td the muscles Of the temples and .was y,ery clean.' ' ' ' - Sheriff Storey then began a search for a raaor which' he thought might . have been smuggled into the jail, but was un able to find 'one. For many years the prisoners were not ' allowed to have plates, as they had often been used as weapons, but Mr. Storey has made a de parture from the rule which his prede cessors saw fit to establish.

The British bark East African reached port last night and dropped anchor in the stream. She came frdm Newcastle, N. S. W.. with coal, arriving at the mouth of the river on November 80. Her cargo was discharged at Astoria, and she came up to Portland to wait for an outward charter J , . . . ;J A cable was received from the owners this morning declining 20s to carry grain to the United Kingdom." This is the highest rate offered during the season. and shows a decided improvement In the market. A few days ago the owners ot the Glenesslln refused an offer of 19s Jd, but it was for. carrying barley. Ex porters argue that It Is worth aUout 2s more to load with barley, than any other kind of grain, because a certain amount .of wheat stiffening always has to be secured to. go with it. Shipowners Confer. Some ' exporters are inclined to the belief that the Increasing charter rates are attributable in a certain measure to the international shipowners' conference which is now In session at Paris. One of the main objects of the conference is to regulate rates and place them upon a uniform basiSk While this is held to be impossible by local exporters, they admit that it may result in the general run of rates being materially increased. It is not thought, however, that they can ever be put upon a .uniform basis and kept that way. It is asserted that some of the shipowners would very soon break any agreement Of thjs character which they might enter into. ' In other words, the combine would soon have a falling out and the objects of the organisation would not be attained. or XBTSBBST TO TXXV, WEAK It is perfectly understood by every sick man or woman that if they can get some remedy that will stop the gradual loss of flesh and strength, their recovery is assured.
