LINE TO COMPLETE.

P. properties being tho first official step toward the looked-for transfer on tbe part of the local officials of ihe electric system. 4 .v, '- .'. For . several months the Milwaukee has bad a large corps of engineers going over the Cv W. P; properties, particu larly the Gresham-Falrvlew line, report ing as to grades, physical condition and possibilities: for improvement. Much of this work has been done by agents of the Milwaukee without the knowledge. even, or President B. 8. Josselyn of the Portland Railway, Light & Power com pany. .T't , V-''-':- - water Orade JJa JPoiiibU. , These agents have ' reported. , that It will be possible, at very little expense, to make a completely water grade line the entire distance from Fairview to the Willamette terminal. The only grade of any extent that exists now Is near Oresham, A Slight cut would remedy It, the present 1 line having , been run i over tho hill,. Instead of catting through The new road Is reported to have a string on the 42 acres owned by the Inman-Poulsen Lumber company, but this is denied by officers of the company. The 1200 feet of water frontage on the Wil lamette owned by the Inman-Poulsen company la in Itself a very valuable water front terminal property. Taken in connection with the O. W. P. docks and with the water front running all the way from Hawthorne avenue- to the Waverly golf links the Milwaukee would have a water , frontage more valuable In-many respects .even than that ofj the o. R. & N. and. Southern Pacific. The Portland Railway, Light & Power company has steam shovels and a large gang oi man at work night and 'day cutting down the Sell wood bluff and filling in the marsh .land between the railway right-of-way, and the bluff. , I i-:'-.:- Would 8eQ Ttact : v Further up river, near the Oaks, is' a large tract of land now owned by the O. R. , & N. L- With the Milwaukee as owner of tbe O. W.P. lines and any possible outside connection cut off,' the O. R. &.N. would undoubtedly gladly Bell this tract to the Milwaukee, which would still further add to .the terminal facilities of the new road. , It suggestive that on tbe day that President Karling, Percy Rockefeller and other directors of the Milwaukee were in Portland December 1 an order should have been issued segregating the sprlngwater lines or the O. W. P. from the rest of the properties owned by the Portland Railway, Light & Power com pany. The order places ' the Oregon City. Caaadero and Gresbam lines what are called the interurban lines of the company In one division under charge of J. W. Hewett The other O. W. P. lines the Sellwood,, Hawthorne avenue and Mount Scott liaes .are placed with the Portland city lines, including the Vancouver-Portland line. The two sys tems are to be operated separately in the future, and there aeems no doubt but that tbe change was made to fa cilitate the work of placing tbe Spring-'! waier lines . In readiness to be turned over to the Milwaukee. ' . -....;. , Kay Sxtend to Sliver-ton. Not tijie least interesting phase of tbe examinations made by-"Milwaukee en gineers iis the attention "given to pos sibilities of ' aa "extension of the Caxa dero line up the canyon and on to.'Sll verton, where it would have aasy acceM to the, Willamette valley. It Is said the engineers have . reported - this line can be built with comparative case and that at no place will it encounter more than a I per cent grade. Fred Morris, It is understood Is to receive the Oregon City line from Sell wood Junction to Oregon City as his commission for the sale.; Thi Is one of the best paying properties of the Oregon Water Power lines and Mr. Mor ris is said to have plans on foot for an extension of the line up Abornathy Creek, which, if followed, would not only tap a heavily timbered district but would give easy access to the Wil lamette valley country on tho other side. Built Oregon City Una, Morris was the builder of the Oregon fity line and understands Us valu. He planned 1t in the first place as a, ter mlnsl proposition, but at that time had little idea that the Milwaukee would be the buyer. n - . Lady Island, In the Columbia opposite Falrvlew, tho terminus of the Gresham line of the o. W. P.. offers one of the best 'sites for a bridge? across tbe Co lumbia that Is t6, be, found on the lower river. ; Blue prints . of ' the proposed bridge have been completed, It is said, and show a structure that will rival the North Bank's in strength and size,; while showing a considerable saving in cost. owing to the location of the land. The tunnel under tbe hill on the Washington side Of the rivet will be an expensive feature of the work, but wlll cost little more than that .the O. R. & N. is build ing across the peninsula. ;',:'-:.vJii::-',: RIVER AND HARBOR ' ; ; - CONGRESS MEETS ' (Continued from Page One.) a yearly river and arDor dui may De- come the fixed policy of the govern ment ' I ' Probably . next In . importance ' to the address of the president- will be 4 the speech . of Governor Har mon of Ohio, ' who for years .has been a close student or .ine question or im proved waterways. - In addition to these distinguished Citizens others quite as well known In their several vocations will deliver, addresses during the con vention, including Hon.

TESTS SHOW THAT Em COYOTES AR State Bacteriologist Discovers Germs of. Rabies in Ani mals Bitten. Germs of rabies have been found by Professor Pernot, state bacteriologist, In heads of sheep and a pig bitten by a coyote in Wallowa county.
