It Is said this was done n order to prevent labor liens from being filed on the grades and rights of wav. The contractors are holdinr the bag for ail expense of Installation and equipment ana provisioning or camps. It Is said these contractors had bought ery heavlly on the-market at the open ing of the. packing season and harvest time, and they are placed in embarrass ing positions with their creditors. it costs from S30.000 to $40,000 a month to run . a full-fledged railroad construction contract of the else that was 'operated on Oregon construction last. season. , There is hardly a contract ing .firm in the west that can carry the enormous expense of equipment and provisioning and the operation of a camp for 10 or 60 days without the backing of the railroad treasury. In former years railroad construction contracts contatned a provision that the railroad company -management could ..v.,' give 10 days' notice of suspension of work and at the expiration of such no tlca the company could withdraw from the, project by paying Xor work dona to that date. -. - Th contracts that were entered into In Oregon last year by contractors con tained no clause . covering this point, but were left wide open.- It Is assumed that: tha Harriman companies psatolvely admit their liability for damages to con tractors by reason o'f the latter' ex pense - in equipping ' ana provisioning winter camps, and that the railroad peo ple are taking their own time and counting the cost of payment of all damage - arising from suspension of work. (,; j , . , Polio of Walt. Tha contractors, fearing to appeal to the courts, for relief, lest they lose the contract nd thus be left exposed to long litigation to recover damages, are keeping quiet and biaing their time as best ' they may. They nave explained the situation to tha wholesalers and others to whom they owe money,' and everybody concerned la wattlna. but not altogether patiently; to see what Mr. Harriman Is going to do. Inquiries made at the ofrice or tne chief engineer elicited the reply that "th railroad company has paid all eon tractors, what Is due them under their contracts." While technically thla Is admitted by the contractors to be a cor rect statement for the immediate pres ent thev amDhatlcally state that a treat deal more money will be due them when It 1 considered that mey nave gone to enormous expense to place tnemseives In position to perform the work that has been postponed or abandoned by th Harriman companies. . Baiter work Will Be Beswnad. rt la still believed that the intention of 'the Harriman railroad management Is to proceed with the various construc tion projects that were started In Ore gon last season; But In no quarter can the slightest intimation be securod aa to when resumDtlon will take place. The atralghtentng of tha main Una between Portland and Cascade Locks, beaun last year ny tne racino Coast Construction company, is about two thirds completed. It was to havo nat tsoo.ono. Alii the canriDS are idle, but are being maintained, tuny pro visioned for the entire winter season. Tha Haaveiton-wnisbura line, esti mated to cost 1100,000, not Including Oswego bridge, la only started, about 7.000 vara a or araae oeine; auno wnen the suspension orders were received. The camps were fully provisioned in October when, the work was begun. The contractors were forced to put In tb.e entire winter's provisions In view of the Impossibility or transporting tnem overland after the roads should become Impassable. Th Tillamook road, contracted by the Portland Bridge company and Rob ert Wakeflfild, was forced to adopt the same policy owing" to the- remoteness of the camp from markets. Erlckson A Peterson, who butlt the Riparia-Lewiston line, had this work nearly completed when the suspension order came. They secured almost a full settlement from the Harriman com pany, and this placed them in good posi tion to stand suspension of work on the Elsrin extension, which is also awaiting orders to resume construction of the road to Joseph. - PUBLIC PARK THIS SUMMER WILL DRAW CROWDS TO COUjNCIL CREST Depositors and Stockholders Agree to Insolvency ' of , California Trust. 1 ; ; t ' (Calfaa Preta Uaied Wlrt.J San Francisco, Jan. .
