looking after the property in the inter

fornians were building northward from
San Franciaco to meet him. and a stage
line connected the roads. When the
California end reached Redding and the
Oregon line got to Roseburg there was
an Interval of several years while the
builders were accomplishing the diffi

during thle time the stage line operated
between Redding and Roseburg.

BROKEN WATER MAIN
CAUSES TROUBLE
GiiaJ '
HII Over Thomas Creek Im
passable, and Many Citi-
zens Inconvenienced.
Havoc was played with the pew All
at Corbett and Pennoyer street over
Thomaa creek laat night by the break
ing of a 10 -inch main of the city water
works. The break occurred about 9
o'clock, and before the water was turned
off a large amount of damage had been
done. '
This morning the All Is closed to traf
fic and many of the property owners
south of the creek are without any wa
ter. A large force of workmen la en
gaged repairing the mains, but this Is
a very difficult Job, as the earth la very
soft, because of the flow of water. It
may take all of today and part of to
morrow to get the break in the main
repaired and the fill In order for the
passage of atreet cars and wagons.
The break la said to be due to the
immense pressure of the fill upon the
water pipe and sewer which are laid
along Corbett atreet. several feet below
the surface of the old gulch. When the
Alt was made the earth covered the wa
ter main and sewer to a depth of to
feet It Is thought that the sewer first
broke, saturating the AH with Water.
The pressure of the water soaked earth
became so great that the main waa
parted, and the immense stream poured
Into the AH.
ROCK ISLAND AGENTS
WILL BOOM THE FAIR
Of the eight general agenta of the
Rock Island railway system In the
United States, Portland has one, A. H.
McDonald, who haa lust returned from
a trip to Chicago, where he attended the
annual conference of 100 paaaenger and
freight agenta of the Rock Island. Mr.
McDonald haa been absent 14 days, five
of which he spent in Chicago and St.
"It is gratifying to be able to stste
that I found every one of the men who
attended our meeting well posted on the
Lewis snd Clark fair," he said. "The
Portland representative brought the sub
ject to the attention of the meeting, and
the claims of the fair and of "Oregon
were urged upon them. We were given
two very delightful daylight rides by
the company one over the newly com
pleted double-track Una from Chicago to
St.. Iaouls, snd another over the recent
ly built line from St. Louis to Kansas
City, the laat named being the most ex
tensive piece of road In the country.
The service on these lines is the finest
that money can provide"
Since the Rock Island's Portland
agency was established at the corner of
Third and stark streets there has been
sn enormous Increase In "its local busi
ness. The business this yesr has trebled
over each corresponding month of the
preceding year.
TWO NEW TOWNS WANT
TO USE THE SAME NAME
(Speelsl Dispatch to The Journal t
Pendleton, Or., Nov, It: Two new
towns have been created In Umatilla
county, and both are striving to be
known as Hermleton. The first plat waa
filed yeaterday, and the other .waa re
corded this morning. A strong feeling
exists between the persons Interested In
the two towns, and the matter may be
taken into the courta to establish the
right to the name. They are many
Scottish residents, and they are loyal to
the name of Hermlaton because of the
memory of a village In Scotland. Both
towns are on the site of the old O. R. A

STRICKEN RAILROAD
MAN REACHES HOME
W. C. McBrtde. general agent of the
Denver A Rio Grande railroad In Port
land territory, has returned from a trip
to Denver, which waa occasioned by the
removal of President O. M. D. Origsby,
of the Texas. Sabine Valley North
western railway, from the North Pa
cific sanatorium to hla heme in Long
view, Tex-, and the transporting of the
body of Mrs. Origsby to Longvlew for
burial. Mr. McBrlde accompanied Mr.
Grlgsby as far aa Denver, and there the
Texas man waa met by friends and
placed In the drawing-room compart
ment of a Pullman car, In which he com
pleted his Journey without further
change of care.
''Mr. Origsby seemed to Improve after
we got started." said Mr. McBrlde, "and
on the way from Portland to Denver he
bore up exceedingly well. He waa un
able to walk In making the changes from
one road to another, but we had no trou
ble In handling him on a stretcher I
think he reached Longvlew In better
condition than he was when he started
from Portland."
AUT0M0BILISTS TO

Automobllists in the state of Oregon

Julius Adler, chief ranger of Portland

MAY BUILD SEVER
FOR THEMSELVES
Property Owners Are Thoroughly
Dissatisfied with the One
the City Constructed.
PLACED ON HILLSIDE,
IT HAS PROVED USELESS
Mass Meeting at i Hamilton
Avenue and Macadam Street
Will Discuss the Matter.
Property owners in the vicinity of
Hamilton avenue and, Macadam atreet
are planning a big mass meeting to
devise some method of providing for
proper sewer drainage In their district.
They will also prepare to resist the as
sessment of costs of the sswer built last
summer on Hamilton avenue and
Macadam atreet, which is useleaa to
nearly three fourths of the residents
of the district.
The sewer runs down Hamilton ave
nue to Macadam street, where it turns
north on Macadam atreet. It la placed
on the hillside above the street and la
of no use whatever to the residents on
the lower aide of the road. Not more
than a half dosen houses are aald to
be connected-with a sewer which cost
the district nearly t4.000.
The sewer waa built In this manner
against the wishes of the majority of
the property owners. They Immedi
ately saw that If built ah planned It
would be of no inra to them. An appeal
waa made ot fniinrilman Zimmerman,
and a protest' waa sent to the council,
but no attention waa paid to the wishes
of the people.
One property owner has made the
statement that Councilman Zimmerman
did not care where the sewer waa
placed as long as It was laid Just below
his property on Hamilton avenue and
Macadam street, where he might receive
the greatest benefit.
It is the plan of the property own
ers to ask the council for permission
to construct a sewer down Hamilton
avenue to Lowell street to connect with
the other sewer. 1 By making this
change nearly all the property owners
In -the. aewer district will be benefited.
Sanitary conditions are said to be
very bad in thif , dlatrict. Sinks and
cesspools are dag on the hillside and
as the earth la yery soft the sewage
often breaks through at a lower level.
The stench from these cesspools, es
pecially during the summer 1 time, Is
said to be unbearable.
SAL00NMEN VIOLATED
DANCING ORDINANCE
For violating the ordinance prohibit
ing dancing In saloons, Ft. O. Hlbbard
and W. Potts, proprietors of the Bruns
wick saloon, at 28 North Third street,
are in trouble. They were arrested this
afternoon, the complaint being drawn
up by Deputy Attorney Fltagerald.
According to the police tne Bruns
wick Is one of the worst dives In the
north end Patrolmen Baty and Burke,
who handed In the report which cauaed
the arreats to be made, aay the saloon
bears a bad name and that derogatory
reports concerning it nave been in cir
culation for some time.
About 11:60 o'clock last night the
patrolmen walked Into the saloon and
discovered a number of women of loose
morals dancing with rounders in a rear
room, all being in a more or leas In
toxicated condition.
The report was made to Captain
Moore and handed to Chief Hunt this
morning. As soon as he had read it the
chief Instructed Warrant Officer Oolts
to lay a complaint. Ball was furnished
by the accused men, who will appear in
the polios court before juage nogue to

TWO DOZEN HOBOES ARE

MAY CARRY FLOUR
TO VLADIVOSTOK
Commission Men Say That Is
the Destination of Steam
ship Ellamy.
Flour men In a position to know say
that the steamship Ellamy will take a
cargo of flour from ft his city direct to
Vlsdlvostok.
About a week ago there were rumors
of the chartering of the steamer for
the orient, but they were denied by the
men who were mentioned aa the char
terers. Now the story Is current that for
business reaeons the destination and the
chartering of the Ellamy Is being kept
secret, as the owners and exporters do
not care to take the risk of exposing
their ship to a conflict with several
first-class battleships.
It hss been known for some time In
local flour circles that auppllea of flour
st Vladivostok were very short. Some
time ago Just previous to the breaking
out of hostilities a local flouring mill
company cancelled a large order which It
had with the Russian government be
cause the risk of lsndlng the stock
