After leaving wynn s saloon the rob bera met Ouy Burgey, who lives at East Fourteenth and East Yamhill streets, and attempted to hold him up. Burgey escaped by talcing to his heels. A short distance down the street he met G. W. Stevens and told him of what had happened. Stevens was lncredu lous, but a few minutes later was con vinced of the truth of the story when he , met the highwaymen and was held up ana renevea or M in casn ana two goia watches. Bevotver Duel Begins Capt&ln of Police Bailey, who went on duty at police headquarters at mid night, dispatched all available officers to the east side with Instructions to make every effort to apprehend the robbers. Among those sent to the east side were 1'atroimen Hanson ana ves sey. They had reached a dark place on the railroad track near Ankeny street when the two officers saw the three robbers running toward them When commanded to halt all three opened fire on the policemen, one of the bullets taking effect In the fleshy Dart of Henson'a rlrht arm. lnth officers returned the fire. three bullets from Henson s gun strik ing the negro, two In the head and one in the chest. He died almost instantly, though his revolver, from which two shots had been fired remained clutched In his hand. When the negro fell his two com panlons. Relthke and Ives, turned and designated and placed him under ar rest. Ives Is an example of the evolution of a youthful criminal. He seems to be a hardened youth and It Is likely that he will, before many days, give the po lice details of many holdups, as It is thought that he knows more of recent robberies than he admits.

A hose preceded the engine when leaving the f I rehouse and passed a St. Johns car near Hancock and William avenue. Instead of stopping, as is the rule In case of a fire, the car kept on its way and at the corner of the streets named the heavy engine turned. One of the horses struck the car and was bruised badly. It was not thrown to the ground, however, and kept on its run. Officials Of the department are nnnr investigating me arrair ana th mntnr. man 01 ui wnenuing car may oe taKin 10 laaa. Mayor Lane has refused to sign the city's March lighting bill, amounting to 18,080, on the ground that It is exces sive, and has sent it back to the city executive board to be checked up. This means that the Portland Railway, Light Si Power company will not get Its money until it shows that it has fur nished the city the amount of current provided for In Its contract. Several weeks ago Mayor Lane called Into office Oskar Huber, consulting engineer of the company; Harry 8. Bla den, transmission engineer and F. G. Sykes, general manager of the light and power department, and compelled them to testify under oath as to the amount of current used by the street lights. All fiosseased a lack of knowledge relative o the lighting proposition, according to their testimony, and now Mayor Lane lias rerused to sign the warrant ror the light bill until the company shows that it is entitled to the money. Entitled to Bebate. Mayor Lane declines- to state how much rebate he expects to secure from the oompany, but says that he knows men who do know how much current the lights require, even if the company offi cials do not. He said today that he was like the Japanese who had "In- ? ul red to know,'1 and if he could not Ind out one way he would another. Mayor Lane SHld: "I have a right to know whether this company is furnishing as much current as Its contract calls tor. It is a duty I owe to the people to find out and If the amount Is smaller than called for bv the city's contract we are entitled to the difference in the cost to the com pany. XTsw tights Save Current. "When the city gave the comDanv the right to change Its lamps from one type to another more than a vear aio we did not release It from its contract.

Last summer the construction of an eight-inch main was authorized but down to date the pipes never have been laid. The only service is a two-inch main and persons llvina in the district say that it is not big enough to supply the territory in question. Four hundred families are compelled to rely upon the service of that two Inch main and there are times in the day when they are unable to obtain any water at all. It is likely the subject will be brought to the attention of the board vsry soon. ASK LENIENCY IN LOGAN CASE turkey Logan, an Indian, Indicted on a charge of manslaughter for killing Willie Gamier on the Silet reserva tion. March J 9. was found guilty by a Jury In the united States circuit court yesterday. Owing to the fact that there was considerable conflicting evidence In the case the Jurors recommended to the court that tha defendant be dealt with leniently, i POSTOEEICE SO BIG PRNOP NEEDED Will Probably Be Advanced to Rank of New York Office in July. Portland's postofflce will probably he equipped with a printing press, print ing material and an additional employe during the summer. Owing to the great amount of bus iness that has been transacted at the Portland office during the last few months the Portland office will in all robabtllty be advanced to the rank of few York and other larger city offices after July 1. The advance is assured if the bus- ness of the future until July 1 equals that of the past. An Increase In sal ary for the postmaster goes with the advance in rating. In addition several clerks will be added to the present force. The prlnt- ng outfit will turn out trie adver tised letter list and do other work in connection with the office and its branches.

Mayor Lane not only believes that It is wrong to accept free, tickets from a railroad corporation after it has its lines In operation, but also believes that it Is wrong for city officials to tatce a free Junketing trip at the cosl of a corporation seeking valuable con cessions from the city. To this end Mayor Lane has announced that if he miles i ne inp punned by the officials of the Mount Hood Railway Sk Power company, up the Bull Run river, fce win pay nis own expenses. The trip was planned for today but has been postponed until Saturday. The members of the city council and water board will leave the city Saturday morn ing at 7:15 o'clock at First and Alder streets. The trip will take in an in spection of the railway line of the com pany and the water rights and privi leges asked for by the company in the Bull Run reservation.
