"Both furnaces at the crematory are
now being run to their full capacity, and
I believe it will be shown that every bit
of garbage in the city can be consumed
.there," said Mayor WlllWma this morn
ing, in answer to a question concerning
the garbage problem. , . i M s' , '
"I caused an Investigation to be made."
he continued, "and ascertained that the
foreman at the crematory was trying to
nave expenses by running but. one fur-
nace. This, : I learned, was because of
the fact that slab wood has increased In
price and he wanted to aave money for
the city on the fuel account. But while
this was a very good motive. I instructed
him that in future both furnaces must
be worked to full capacity, and that is
now being done. (- . j
"The one great difficulty now la to
compel the garbage haulers: to take their
refuse-to 'the crematory and dump It
there. One who has had no experience !
with those scavengers cannot imagine
how hard it is to force them to live up
to the requirements. JThey skulk around
-under the cover, of darkness, dump their
loads anywhere to get rid of them, nnd
have no care for the interests of the
public. It has Just been ascertained by
Special Officer Caswell that the Italian
and Finnish peddlers have been in t ie
habit of dumping loads of refuse from
their wagons In a vacant lot at the
corner of Thirteenth and Northrup
streets, ... Thla they have done well know
ing It to be contrary to law, and I have
Instructed that . they be arrested and
prosecuted to the fullest extent We are
bound to stop this Jracttce, and good
heavy tinea In the municipal court will
help more than anything else.
"Of course, a great deal has been said
of late concerning th garbage matter.
hut I am of the belief that with the two
furnaces working full blast the problem
Is about nettled. I certainly hope so.
CAPTAIN PORTER WILL
REMAIN IN PORTLAND
Captain IT. J. Porter, formerly of the
" Indravelll, plying between New ; York
City and Japan, but now-a-resident or
this city, says that he will probably not
return -to , the seafaring life, but may
take up a more suitable occupation here
in Portland. Captain Porter, has fully
. recovered from . his recent illness and
was out for a stroll this morning with
Mrs. Porter. Captain and Mrs. Porter are
fond of Portland and have taken a home

PERMANENCE OF, CURE
The Chief Merit.
Many ao-called pile remedies will af
ford the user alight temporary relle?.
and the majority ot'sufferers do not ex
iwct more than this. Women especially.
after having tried every preparation
recommended for the cure of Piles, hav
come to the conclusion that there Is no
cure except by an operation. This is
rightfully viewea wiui areaa, necauss
of!ttie shock to the delicate nervous aya
- tern of women, and many of those f
flirted have resigned -themselves to the
situation with never a thought that

the experience of the lady whose ad
dress. Is given below:
"I feel It my duty to recommend th
Pyramid Pile Cure, for after buffering
ten years with a most distrenslng form
of Plies I am entirely cured. thnks to
this remedy. Any one doubting this can
write to Margaiet Brady, 106 Whitman
street. Cleveland, Ohio."
Ten months later she write: "I am
glad to say that I am still perfectly free
from Piles, and have not had the ((Unlit-ent-trouble
since I first used our rem

have advertised Pyramid Pile Cure ex

no. as It aaved me from an operation,

Capt. D. Alexander, who was recently
summoned to .Washington to testify
in connection with -the gigantic land
frauds practiced against the government
by the Benson-Hyde faction of San
Francisco, is back In Portland, and to
day had many interesting things to say
about his examination before the grand
Jury investigating the cases.
Captain Alexander waa at first non
committal ' when- approached, and said
that he knew practically nothing about
the land frauds practiced in Oregon for
many years past However, after much
questioning, the fact waa brought out
that ha waa summoned to the national
capital for a whole lot more than he
was willing to at first admit
When asked if it were not true that
he had acknowledged as notary the til
ing of certain papers on land owned by
the state and soon after reserved by
the government, he answered:
1 was not before the grand Jury in
Washington more than 10 minutes and
the questions asked me related only to
minor dealings I had with a man by
the name of J. H. Schneider five years
ago."
"Is It not true that thla loan Schnei
der was an agent of Benson and Hyde
and was doing grossly fraudulent work
for the latter firm in Oregon and other
states 7" waa the next question.
"It ia a fact that haa developed since
the investigation act on foot by Sec
retary Hitchcock, waa the answer.
"Will you explain why the govern
ment believed you such. an Important
witness that it called you to the distant
place of investigation?"
"Liet me state Just what waa required
of me afid to what I testified, and aside
from that I tell you there haa nothing
been aald of truth.
"To begin, I must say that all wit
nessea were asked to keep silent on
the subject of the Investigation, yet I
do not believe that I am betraying con
fidence when I endeavor to net aside
some of the untruths published regard
ing the testimony which was taken be
hind closed doors and which found its
way into -print only In grossly magnified
forms.
"Five years' ago there came to my
office J. H. Schneider, who aald he was
a stranger in Portland and had a doaen
clients who desired to file on state land,
and that aa I waa a notary I could at
tend to the business. He had no per
son or peraons in company, and at this
late time I remember htm indistinctly;
I do not know how many of hie clients
appeared at my office subsequently, and
did not know at the time that Benson
and Hyde, were connected with Schnei
der, or that any one of the trio was
engaged in fraudulent transactions.
Captain Alexander, went further to
state wherein the frauds occurred. He
said: "The scheme of Benson and Hyde
waa to ascertain by. some crooked com
bination with trusted- clerks in the land
office where the federal government waa
to set aside a reserve. Schneider, filled
with this information, . would then in
vade the state and get any irresponsi
ble person, for the least amount, of
money possible, to . file on such .land.
Soon after the government would de
clare a reserve, and then Benaon and
Hyde would take advantage of the lieu
land act and select some of the most
valuable sites In exchange for their
practically bogus holdings.
"My connection with those fellows waa
simply that I acted as any other notary
would have done. , I told the grand Jury
Just what I have Bald to you, and noth
ing more, despite the erroneous reports
circulated." .
Captain Alexander concluded by say
ing that he was .unable to state how
much land had been obtained by Ben
aon and Hyde in Oregon in this man
ner, but that the acreage must have been
great , .
"They are a smooth set of rascals
down there in California," ended Alex
ander; "I mean those connected with
this B.enson-Hyde matter, and are
watching every turn, but In my Judg
ment they are in bad straits this time,
if never before." . ... t. ,
WILL REPEAL OLD
FRANCHISE RIGHTS
There are seven ancient ordinances,
carrying valuable franchises, that were
passed by various city councils from
1879 to 1890 that will be recommended
for repeal at the next council meeting
by City Uudltor Devlin. They are all
reminders of large projects that were
begun many years ago by promoters
with more enthusiasm than money per
haps, and as they have .never, been
claimed it is Mr. Devlin's desire to
have them officially killed. f v
Ordinance No. 6,098, granted to the
Mount Tabor Street Railway company,
its successors or assigns the right to
construct and operate-a .street- railway
line in the city. This waa approved
February 14, 1890. No. 8,334 granted
to I D. Jackson and H. V. Perry the
right to construct and maintain a mes
senger service line; approved April
1897.:, No. 6.045 authorized the United
States Electrlo Lighting & Power com
pany to trim shade trees along its pro
jected route. This waa approved March
8. 1887. No. 8.360 granted to the Port
land Heat A Power company-the right
to lay matns and make necessary con
duits for the operation of steam heat
and power; approved June 23, 1893. No.
7.816 granted the Eaat Side Power com
pany the. right to conatruct and main
tain a power plant;" approved September
8. 1882. No. 3,188. granted the Ameri
can Telephone & Telegraph company the
right to operate lta lines, and No. 3.574
granted the Northwest Telephone &
Electrlo company the right to operate
its lines; approved December 4, 1879.
SUIT FOUNDED ON
MALICE. SAYS JAMES
ored to have Founts reinstated, which
I refused to do a I felt I had suffi
cient : ground' for his discharge and he
was not entitled 'to be reinstated. Mc
Mahon then threatened to get even and
the next step was the bringing of this
suit- It is founded on malice and noth
ing else. - All the other state officials
have had their houses or quarters fur
nished in the same manner as ours was
and paid for by the state. As a matter
of fact a conaiderable portion of the
amount In question represents the fur
nishing of 10 or 12 rooms for the use
of guards and other employes at the pen
itentiary, and with which we have noth
ing to do in any event." .
CHIEF HUNT GRANTS
FOUR FULL PARDONS
Four stomachs with but a single long
ing lined up -in front of the police sta
tion railing this morning and received
Chief, Hunt's dally blessing. The men
were aroused before breakfast, and sent
on . their ' way rejoicing, thus causing
the hearts of the thousands of Portland
taxpayers to beat -with gladness they
had been saved 86 cents, as the prison
ers' morning meals would have cost Just
nine cents apiece.
The men released by Chief Hunt's or
ders were' arrested yesterday afternoon
or last night for breaking one of the
city laws. - In accordance with an estab
lished rule of his own -Chief Hunt haa
been in the habit of liberating a few
prisoners before police court convenes.
"Thanks, chief," muttered one old man
as ha gathered up his things and walked
away.-. '' ' ''
"Awfully kind in you, old chap," whis
pered another as he waved farewell to
the Napoleon of the Portland blue
coats. y.:
"Gee, dat bloke was certainly good to
me,M muttered a grateful one.
