.' "Portland ,ba reached a etaa In its
'growth when It U uoMurr to build a
subway undsr the. Willamette river ror
streetcars, wagon and foot travel, aaia
F. X. McKonna. 'Instead of putting- up
another " bis brlde a Madison street
that would be an obstruction to navt
gatlon and a constant aggravation to
the traveling publlo that has to cross
it, the city and county should put
tube undwr the river at that street"
McKenna declared the city of Port
In ml. If It is going to be the New Tork
of the Pacific, must begin to look fur
thr ahead into the future and antici
pate the city s needs, ins years pass
quickly and the city's population and
t aanessable property grow enormously
every year. The men who are moulding
, the city's policies - must grasp ugger
i.roblim and handle them with "more
diHpatch and 'broader -views -than -are
new being exercised in the short-aignteo
Diana -to out . more bridges across . the
harbor. Mr. IdcKenna said:
"Every bridge across the Willamette
Mver nas to oe - repiacea pracucsuy
every J yearal Its maintenance bill and
expense of draw operation mount up to
a very large , sum, i nm u u m
bridge, has to be divided between the
people who cross 1t and those who go
through It, and neither Taction is ever
satisfied. There Is and always will be
a continual .agitation and war ror and
against keeping the draw spans' closed
during rush hours. .
; " v- Zmperatlve ' Veed Shown. ,.
' Tlioss who "argue ' that the city is
not Urge nough to make a subway
necessary have only to be answered by
rotating to the four big bridges that
are already congested during the busy
hours of the day, and the clamor for a
fifth bridge across' the harbor.
"What 'this city ahould have right
now is a subway 41 feet wide, providing
a double track street railway, a track
on each side for wagons and outside of
theae a walk for pedestrians.
"Such a subway, once built would
be there for all time, with little or no
expense for maintenance, and no annoy
ane to navigation. It would afford
more revenue to the city from streetcar
operation through it than a bridge could
possibly earn. It would yield the city
and eounlv a rood return on the In
vestment, and be infinitely more useful
and satisfactory than even a high
bridt-e. i In my ludsment It could be
built for about the same money a first
claaa brtdara would -cost to carry the
same traffic'
Business Vadsrtaklag So City.
McKenna called attention to the fact
that the cltv -of Portland la now in ex
cellent condition financially to build a
aubway. He thought the aubway could
h hull fnr from XfiOO.000 to 11.000.000.
As it would earn a revenue, It would be
In the nature of a business unaenamnr
Tha clt rould under the law bond it
self for $13,000,000 if that much money
were necessary to carry out puonc im
provements, water bonda ao not count
against the city in reckoning Its, legal
limit of debt, as waterworks are in the
class of revenue earners. The city of
Portland would not nave to pause on
t nt Mint at a. aubwsv. ahould It
be thought wise, to build one. Jt Is
believed it could be completed within a
vmir. at a coat not axceeains ii.vvv.uvv,
McKenna believes the tunnel ahould
be 40 feet deep at the charfhel for a
width of 400 feet and then .slops up-
marrt toward each side of the river.
Should the river be more than 40 feet
deep at the point of crosalng. one or two
piers could De put unaer it to sajusi
the depth. The subway should be a

far as my personal interests are con-
When tha city council meets this aft
ernoon Schwartsschild Sulaburger will
withdraw their request for permilalon
to operate a packing plant on tha pres
ent site of Zimmerman slaughter bouse.
This action will pa taken because Of op
position developed to the project and
because of the uncertainty of, the plans
of the packers. ' .
The action tnis aitemoon m jeaai
means a temporary witnarawai or me
new packing house proposition,- but It is
believed the company will later make
efforts to locate on tne Zimmerman
site or secure a location in Or near port
land onuallv aultable.
Talk or Bcnwartsscnua tsuisour-e-er
coins to Tacoma or Seattle is not
a-enerally credited, becauae of the-known
noetllity of both sound cities to prel
ects of this kind. Seattle especially is
hosule to packing plants witnin tne
citv limits, and as there is no location
near by that would be aultable for the
Schwartsscniid Huisourger piant it
la not believed that the packers will go
there. .. ..
Just what action will be taken by tne
company is uncertain, and because of
the lack of advices from the firm s New
Tork headquarters, J. & Helsey, repre
sent! nar the nackere In Portland, ha
stated that nothlnc further will be done
bv his company at the present time. He
also stated that the ' criticism raised
aaalnst the project was 111 advised, and
cams from Dereons who are in comnetl'
tlon with his company, as wen as rrom
earned, it would . helD them to have all
navigation and industrial concerns driv
en to the lower river, and even to the
Columbia river.
Tha drift lb toward the Columbia
and if the upper harbor is blockaded any
lurther by bridges ins main ocean car
rying trade of Portland will be oarrled
cn from Columbia nver aocas. woen
that time comes it is only a step to
the Waahlngton side of the Columbia,
and that takes the business out of
Portland and Oregon. Portland should
strive to accommodate its people by
makina the two sides of the river one
In every way possible. Bridges do not
really unite the city, but a subway
would."
CUSSED NOR PERFUMED
A mass meetlns of residents in South
Portland and Fulton waa held in Obrlst
hall, 110S First street last night to
discuss the proposed establishment by
lid 'A Sulaburger of slaugh
ter house and packing plant In that dis
trict. On a final vots requesting Dr.
Cottell, councilman from the Fifth
ward, to work for the establishment of
the plant under proper restriction and
government inspection, the resolution
was lost on account or a tie vote, wnicn
left the matter where it was first, ao

. dent Josselya does not want the' fran
cnise revoked in tnat it is a vaiuaoie
one and may be useful to the company

pany is out of business and that all of
its customers were practically rorcea to
. put in new elevators,' most of which
are operated by electric power the com
mittee aeciaea tuat tne fortiana tau
