- Several Conferences Xsld. .
The decision to merge the two. street
railways of Portland Into one huge com

ultimate outcome of the warfare that

' companies heavily. . . -, ' ,-
In the course of keen competition each
road has paralleled the tracks of the
other. . making, a network of ... tracks
. throughout the entire city. In ' many
' Instances the parallel tracks hare been
operated at financial loss In . residence
districts where travel la light Bat in
. order to prevent a monopoly of the bust

', the ether company was compelled to
operate cars even ata loss. -, ,
When the combination of the two
" Toads is finally effected the doubling of
tracks and similar operations will of
, course be stopped. A considerable
amount of trackage that was built In
that manner will be removed and placed
In districts to which neither road has

' Not since June t has there been any

Geneva, Bwttserland, July 14. Paul
Kruger, better known as "Oom Paul."
former president of the Transvaal re
public., died at I o'clock thla morning at
Clarens in the Swiss canton of Vaud.
He had been 111 for mora than a year,
and viewed the end philosophically, say.
lug ha was "Olad to be at rest-"
' Death Waa directly due to heart weak
ness resulting from an attack of pneu
monia. He had been critically ill for a
month past. ,,;.-'
Last Monday, he lost consciousness.
His daughter and srn-ln-law were at hla
bedside when death um The. body
will immediately be embalmed and later
In the day the remalna will be placed
In a temporary tomb' pending the result
of. an application to England for per
mission to take the body to tba Trans
vaal for .Ileal Interment.
Thla request la In accordance with the
wish often expreessed by Kruger that he
might ' be buried beside his late wife. -
Stephen John Paul Kruger, Boer
pioneer, patriot and statesman, was bom
In Cape Colony in IMS and when a child
was one of the great party that trekked
Into the Interior ef Africa, rather than
liberate their slaves, an order for whose
emancipation had been promulgated by
the British government. Throughout
hla early life he participated In the bat
tles with natlvea that characterised the
Boer efforts to subjugate a land. It
ended for the Zulu in either death or
slavery.
Kruger was an? exceptionally am
bitious man and immediately after his
election to the presidency of tbs South
African republic in 188 began to-Intrigue
with Germany . In the hope of
gaining access to the sea for his coun
try1. . He. was re-elected president in
1888. in 18l. and again In 188, but
failed to attain hla object.
Kruger successfully ended the Jamie-
son raid la which John Hays Hammond,
the American mining engineer, par
ticipated .and Strengthened his hold on
the government by forming around hire
a ring of such power that none could
obtain franchise or concession without
hla consent. He built up a salary and
emolument for his office that exceeded
by nearly double the Inoome of the
president of the United States, largely
by the taxation of the Uitlsnders who
were denied the right of franchise.
In lit came the Boer war In which
Kruger with charaoterlstlo energy and
quickness, hurled - his army over the
border, , thue beginning hostilities on
British territory. . The long war- which
followed and which cost so many lives
ended ths Independence of his country.
Kruger Is supposed to have plunged
hla government into war with the idea
that he would receive the support of
Germany and Holland. In thla he' waa
mistaken. He early went to these coun
tries end when the end finally came was
practically discredited by his own peo
ple, tha leaders in the fighting making
terms-of peace without even consulting
him. Since the close of that war he
has practically passed all his time In
Holland and Bwltserland. . .

From offlclal sources It was learned
today that if the houses are once (closed,
they, will .not be given permission to
reopen. It la declared by an official
of the city who has to do with the
gambling cases now on In the municipal
court that Mayor Williams wants a
closed town, but wants some one other
than himself to take the action; but
that if the district attorney or any one .
else causea gambling to- cease, the
mayor , will not permit it to resume.--
-"I decline te make any. statement
regarding the matter, aa to what action
I may take in the -future," said Mayor

any agreement regarding the gambling

Attitude ef the Mayor.
- "It Is said that If Mr.- Manning closes
tha houses, you will not permit them to .
open,- waa suggested to the mayor.
"Well. I cannot make any .statement
about It." was his reply. '
, Attorney Murphy, acting for the Or
pheura. gambling house, whose rooms
were closed by the police Tuesday night,
laid complaints before District attorney
Manning last night against the Portland
club and August Erlckson's eatablisb
menta Mr., Manning will issue lnfor
matlona against them in the circuit
court this afternoon or early tomorrow.
Warrants will Issue from - the circuit
court and will be served by Sheriff
Word. -. This takes the ease out of the
bands of the police, and out of the ma-.
nlclpal court. - . - -
, The cases against Proprietor McDevItt
of the Orpheum bouse, and hla players
and dealers, will be called In the mu
nicipal court tomorrow morning. In
case . they are found guilty and their
fines exceed 120, their cases will alao go
to the circuit court, according to At
torney Murphy, for 'be aaya be will ap

gambling proposition will be fought out
In the higher courts, thus relieving the
city administration of the burden.

District Attorney Manning has fre
quently made the statement that he
would take no action relative to gam
bling until Sheriff Word assumed office.
That time has come and It la believed,
the day of public gambling in Portland
has passed. .
- "I will repeatedly make complaint
against any and all gamblers If they '
attempt to .reopen after having been
closed, " said Attorney Murphy today.
"Chief Hunt has said he will close the
Orpheum every time Its proprietor opens

the district attorney metes out the same

I shall make complaints to Mr. Mm-,
