He i also-1 recommends that the' present -f J)lumbing laws be not changed, except in - tni nor particulars, and showr the large. Increase in work which the department has accomplished. The report is as fol- laws: - ; S ,' "During the last year there has been , more : than seven miles of; new sewer j system Installed in the city of Portland, which has greatly increased the work . m this office. There wrs ,73 .entire new, buildings completed with plumb , lng systems and 88 alterations and ad ; Vlltions up 4.

"When it is considered that system atic inspection of plumbing and drain age was not undertaken prior to 1192 It can be readily understood that there Is . a great deal of defective, And dangerous : work done In the past to bs found and corrected. The work of this office Is . two fold; it Undertakes to see that, all i iie w work Is finished as required by the ., latest sanitary laws of our city, and , also the correction of old work done, be fore there were any sanitary laws.

"The present law governing plumbing, ' drainage and ventilation has given gen erally satisfactory i-esults.

Judge Bellinger of the federal court mis Afternoon instructed tna jury 10 ac quit, Frank vWinnishet, -the- Indian on trial for the murder of ; Indian Police man Pelatt. Was Frank Winnishet's knife respon sible for the death of Pelatt or did the Indian policeman atebecause- -of - hts Strong -bel lex In a superstition of his race? Evidence hsa been Introduced in the trial of, WinniBhet. the young Warm Springs brave, charged with taking the life of his cousin. Pelatt. which goes to show that thJ defendant accidentally struck the officer In the mouth with his knife in an attempt to cut his bridle rein, ani escape from the posiceman. The wound in Itself was slight and bled but little, but notwithstanding, Pelatt. after mounting his horse and riding, to a friend's house, lay down and died. Mr Nina Patt. a squaw, in who arms Pelatt breathed his last, declared that the dying; man said several times that the Indian doctors and not Winnl shet were responsible tor his death; "They have taken away my tomwusj' he cried, "and unless it la returned I shall, die." . Tfyim peculiar statement the Inter preter could not explain. - ' According - to those versed In Indian lore, when a young siwssh reaches his majority,,, he ' takes himself ' to the tnotmtatnsOTd reinatnBorB-certaln length of time, .. alone . and ' fasting. Upon hi return to his fellows, the first living creature he-sees Is thereafter his good spirit,' charm, or "tomwus." Al long as this is with him he Is free from harm, although the charm may work for either good or evil. What constituted the "tomwus" of Pelatt Is not known, but whatever , It was, he declared It was not with him and unless the Indian doc- -eterTOihfl,could not live., Nina attVatU$f)illt ; whehPelattdeclared that his 'tomwus'? must be brought to him, the' tribe doctors arose and left the room and . did not return. Soon after the Indian beeathed his last. The government rested Its case at 11:30 o'clock,' and Attorney F. P. Mays, for the defense, moved for an acquittal. United States District Attorney John H. Hall, conducting the prosecution, said it was very evident that the wit nesses had been "fixed,", and. that their stories differed from those told before the grand Jury. The Jurors selected to try, the case are: Arnold S. Graham, H. Duncan, C. Lystrop, - C A. - Dunnigan, , William Sheehy. j. ft. Rowland, W. R. South, D. B. Troutman. E. I Barnett, R. Jl. Graves, W. ; A. Taylor, Joseph Hume. Mr,- Hall stated In his opening state ment that it was not the desire of the government to convict Winnishet of murder in the first degree; that the cast would be more a question of the degree of the. defendant's .gullt. -There- had been a gathering of Indians on the Warm : Springs reservation on the day ot the tragedy, said the district attor ney, and -Winnishet and several other young braves came up on - horseback, somewhat -under the influence of liquor. They created a disturbance and Pelatt, Abraham and another ""policeman" at tempted to arrest them:-' j s U "1 not believe .that Winnishet meant to strike Pelatt with; Jtne . knife." said Mr. Han, "he meant the blade for . an other, and Pelatt got in , the' way. , He struck down with' the intention of 'Cut ting Abraham; the blade caught Pelatt in the mouth and the policeman bled to death soon after." - ' - - Mr. Mays said that Pelatt and Winni shet were cousins and friends and satd the defense would attempt to establish the fact that Winnishet was attempting to cut his bridle rein that one of the policemen, held when he accidentally struck Pelatt In the mouth. " "We will show," said Mr.. May's, "that Pelatt died of another cause and not from tha knife wound. .The .Indian doc '' but Mr. Mays checked himself and continued his statements along an other line, .--'. " FT.
