The taking of testimony be fore -the inveetlgatlng comralttaa wss concluded last evening and the next atep will be- an examination of the gas company's plant. At the request of the company, the council men will visit the (as works and make personal inspeo- tlon of every part of them. One week i -'-front next Monday the committee will meet again to near argumente by the attorney a : . ' In the eourse of the session-last aven-1 Ing J. N. Teal, attorney for the ass company, proposed to the oouncltmen that the city ahould establish a system of municipal Inspection of all gas me ters. He urged this aa the best possible - method of doing- away with ail cause f . complaint on the part of consumers and believed that it would prove setlsfao tory both to them and to the gas com- psny. . ........ In order to set at rest all question as the candle power, quality and pres sure of the a as now furnished In Fort- land, Mr. Teal proposed that an expert be appointed to examine 'and make re- : port on these points. 4tWttrtt ret st the facts and is not actuated by Ill-will In this investigation." , said the attorney, "no doubt It will be will ing to pay one half the expense of se curing an expert and the gag company will pay the other half." . Committee Studies Burners. ' " At the 'conclusion of the session the j committee went in a. body to the ofllce .nttha gas .company where one of the ; employee gave a practical lUastratlon of ; the merits of the various kinds of gaa burners in use In Portland. He shewed ' the -committee that In many cases large - gaa Bills are tne result or - wasieiui burners, " and exhibited some burners which are being extensively sold on the false representation that they economise gaa . - - But three witnesses were on the stand 4durlng the evening. U T. QlUlland and j. w. roomer, nig 01 wnom ho mj tlfled of exoesslve gas bills, bat whose testimony was subsequently contra dicted in" part by Earl ClelanjJ, an em ploye' -af-the - gaa- company, . took - tha stand to explain their statements. W. a Dole, superintendent of the gaa com pany, was the only other witness beard, thoOg-h some documentary evidence was submitted by Mr. Teal . Laundry Haa BsplaU : I T. QllUIand. proprietor of the Union laundry, took the stand In order to explain how his gaa bills were lower during 104 and 10S than for tha two years brevlous. He - denied that this j :wss on account of the reduction In price and said It waa aue to tne raei mat ne had been using electricity to heat his Irons for tha past two years In place of gas. - This lessened his consumption of gaa and he considered the bills ex- . ceaelve. v 1-1 ' 1 . J. W. Toomey. proprietor Of the Barr 1 hotel, wnoee rormer testimony naa peen seriously im Dal red by proof that he had f "Suppressed important facts and had given the gross amount or nis bins in- stead of the net, then took the stand in order to make an explanation. He at tempted to Justify the testimony he had originally given, but was obliged to ad mltr that he had withheld important - facts. Mr. Teal was evidently of the opinion that Toomey is a chronlo fault ' finder. --"Dld -you ever have .trouble Jrtthzlba ' electtia company over your bills for electric llahtr - ; Toomey at first thought BC but fl - nail v resiled In-the afttrmattva "Did you ever, have trouble with the water board about your waty biiist Toomey reluctantly admitted that he had complained of his water bills, as well as his geg bills and his electrlo bills Dole Qooe Witness. ' .. W. 8. Dole, superintendent of the gas company, proved an Important witness. Ha Is a graduate of Cornell and is civil engineer. In response to tbs ques ' tlons of Mr. Teat the witness said that he had been connected with a number of lartj gss companies In Chicago, New Tork and Han Francisco, before coming to Portland. His testimony dealt largely with the cost of making gas In Portland and Its quality. .- The cost of manufacturing gas In 8an Francisco, exclusive of depreciation, is - about (9 cents per 1,000 feet, said Dole. ' Thar la the present cost to the Independent Oss company and the cost Jo the Ban Francisco Gas company last year waa ft cents. The candle power f the Independent , company's gas is 21 and that of the rival Company's Is 1. The candle power of the gas supplied in Portland la 11. The quality of the gas as that of the gap made by the Inde pendent company or nan Francisco. "Last winter 'we carried as high ss inches pressure." continued Superin tendent Dole.:.!The" pressure ranged from-that la IVj Inches. .Now the mul. mum is i on the east side and t on tbs west side. For Welsbaoh. burners or 'gss stoves there must be at least I inches-pressure. In-the oiitsklrU-Qf the .city greater pressure Is required. The-pressure we use certainly, would not be considered excessive. In , N Tork the pressure Is t Inches. In Chi cago It Is 18 Inches and In Ban Fraif elsoo the eld company usee a preeeura of ; w or t Inches. The - - eon sumsr can always regulate .the pressure by means of the atop cock at the meter or by the -valves of his gss stove. It Is the gas 'company's Interest to keep the pressurs as low as possible in, order to avoid leakage. Moat OomajalnU "Are mafiy complaints made to- you oa account of . too high Treasurer' "More complaints,' by at least to to f. are made, on account of low pressure,!" replied the witness. ' Superintendent Dole gave much Im portant Information relative - to the number of consumers per mile In Port land and other cities, the average con sumption per meter and the cost of coal Two. Months Ago- Doxea.or More ' Service Will Have . to Be In- Lcreaiedto Handle TralfleJyuA dition of Two or Three Carrier, "The quality of the gaa during the past five or - six months has 4een un even," said Dole, ."because we are mak ing many change! and Improvements at the works. - At the same time there has been a great Increase in consumption. The inequalities have been unavoidable while these improvementeorere going on." ' -. Judge McGinn strove to lessen the force of Pole's testimony and Indulged in soma sarcaatla comment, but the witness proved well able to hold his own. Judge McGinn waa especially anxious to know about some chemical A DIFFERENCE f ' IN LUNGS. In tVie Edinburgh-University three human lungs lie side byide. , One is of an Eskimo and is' snow white. In life, this would be ruddy with rich blood r Another fs that of a coal-miner and is black, -The other is of a town, dweller -and is' a dirty slate gray, as are the lungs of most i city residents. That's why consumption thrives in cities.: . One reason why Scott's Emulsion does so-jnuch to keep .down consumption ' is because it helpi to keep the lungs ' clean and supplies, them with rich, red blood. "It; makes the lunrs. gertn-re- - sisting.,. If the body is run I down and, health is . at a low ebb Scott's . Emulsion ' will build it up quickly and per manently. ICOTT a SOWN B. ee Peul (met, MtvYark. - " .. ... company has been making and desired to know whether they entered Into the price or gaa. Dole, replied that they did not. -. -v -- . - Dole testified that without a decided Increase, in consumption the gaa com pany would be unable to earn dividends when the price of gas Is reduced to 06 eents. It- - must rely . upon Increased consumption to make the business pay. tr." Drees Parade, gays- MoOtaay"" "I have never known of another city where so many voluntary reductions in the price of gas have been made In the same length of time." said Dole. - When, at the: conclusion of Doles testimony, Mr. Teal Invited the- mem bers efjghe gaa company to visit 'the company's office in 'order to see for themselves the resats obtained from different burners. Judge McGinn en tered a -protest: v". ' -j.--.-t.-.., - - --That's a mere dress parade," he exclaimed angrily. After a sharp tilt between the at torneys the committee adjourned and went In a body, to the gas company's office, . . The exhibition of gas burners proved to be of considerable Interest. One of the gss company's employes showed the respective merits of the different burn ers. The company advocates tha use or tne weisbach burner, which con aumea only 4 feet per hour and gives a light of 200 candle-power? An imi tation of tha Welsbech- burner la being sold, but It- gives a much poorer light, the candle power being only (0 or TO. A burner which has found extenslvs sale Is known as he "Jumbo." Agsnts nananng it represent mat nses only 1 feet of gas an hour, but when tested at the gas company's plant It waa found to consume 14 feet per hour. ..-.iL Next week the committee will visit the gas company s plant and make complete investigation of the works. They will slso endeavor to form an es timate of the value of the plant. One week from next Monday evening, the arguments or attorneys ror the Ore gonlan and for tha gaa company will be heard.

A couple of months ago there were a dosan or more plying regularly up and down the coast In the lumber and grain-carrying trade. . With the fleer so reduced the shippers fear, the will be tinable to make shipments of general freight to and from San Fran cisco with the same dispatch. While the eteam schooners from en y went out loaded almost to thstr full capacity with - lumber, they frequently, handled general freight and on the trip from California they brought heavy shipments of merchandise.

' Chartering a' ship to load new-crop grain for Europe so far In advance of the harvest season is a - long chance which was taken yesterday by a local exporting firm. The names of the ship or firm will not ,be disclosed for a few days. - It Is explained, however, that the vessel is a French bark and was taken at the union rate of "is d- This is the first craft to be chartered on the Paclflo coast this year to trans port a cargo of wheat, still to be grown and harvested, to the European markets. The vessel will leave Ham burg in a few days, for Portland with a cargo of cement. - She la axpeoted to arrive the latter part of August. That the first ship for new-crop load ing - should be chartered - to -carry a cargo from Portland la taken as. evi dence that the ewners do not Intend to make the fight against this port with; such vehemence aa characterised their actions last season. If they show, no. discrimination against this port It: Is the general opinion' among thoss who keep In touch with shipping affairs that more cargoes of grain will be dispatched foreign from the Columbia river In the coming season than from all of -the ports of the Puget sound. - Even when the owners were fighting Portland shs made equally as good a Showing as her northern, neighbors. " This first shows that the "Uporlert are fully convinced that the price of wheat is not going to advance. If it should, the firm securing the vessel several months before the cargo is brought to tidewater would be heavy loser by the transaction. In the event that the price of wheat would get up to tl a bushel, for Instance, and the Liverpool quotations remain un changed, the early venture would cost them several thousand dollars. In years past some of the exporters have lost heavily by engaging tonnage so early in the season. Francisco about the middle of March, when she waa chartered to load floor at PorUawTToT Blberiav Athe"ttme-ahe waa engaged it was supposed that a number of other steamers would be chartered for the same business, but so far there has been none. Exporters do not believe there wlU 'be any beavy shipments mads from . either Portland or the sound to Vladivostok until much later in the season. This will be the first cargo aent from the Willamette river to that quarter of the globe since aDtureaoyTTie Ttus- slans and. her cargo appropriated by them aa contraband of war. Later they paid foe it at the market value. . MAYLOAD.ON-SOUNrX Freaeh Ship OrlUoa Chartered Before , Differential Waa Absorbed. . .

' Prior to her arrival, the vessel was chartered by-BalfoorrOuthrle St Co. ta load Brain at Portland, with the option, of Puget sound, for ths outward trip. Since she bad to coma here with her cargo of cement It ' waa generally taken for granted that the grain far the outward voyage would be secured locally. . .- 1 It appears that the vessel was char tered before the O.

Consequently tf she loada at Portland the exporters 4wlll have to pay the owners S7s d for send ing the cargo to Europe, whereas of she is supplied . with grain in the nortn rate of only its Id will bs charged. The matter Is now under consideration with every likelihood, it is said, of the Crlllon being sent to the sound to load, '' MAY BE GENERAL NcUMAYER lookout at jrort Mead Slgfcta Three- While "the lookout at the North Head weather station was scanning the hoii- son this morning he sighted a three masted loaded bark which is supposed to be the French bark General Neumayar.' bound from Hamburg with a cargo of cement , She Is one of the vessels that has been out from her home port for mora than' a year. - Lest fall aha had o put Into Buenos 'Ayres Tor repairs. for the Columbia river, and she has 1 lou caa' no btin ltftv Sow rile rrfr had ample time to arrive.

Presiding Judge- Arthur I 'Fraser this morning announced that he and his associate Judges were of the opinion that a party to a ault might have a dep osition taken at his or her home after proper showing had been made that the party waa too 111 to appear In' court. Judge-Fraser held that tha deposition could be taken by a notary, although he said that a circuit Judge might go to the . bedchamber and hear tha tes timony. While this action might be taken by a Judge." said he, "it would be setUng precedent that this court would not ears to follow and, which It might not be abhs to follow In. every case In which action of that sort might be requested. Therefore, we have concluded that, the testimony should be heard before a no tary." - .
