county seat of Coos, has coma- to b
known as Ilia "city of Hbeautlf ul homes.
Probably no other city In southwestern
Oregon has as many handsome residen
ces as Coqullie and many of these have
been erected Quits' recently.,,
Coquille is situated in the center of
the Coquille valley and being inland Is
protected f rorfj the winds of the ocean.
-In consequence the cUmate ia the- most
Ideal of any part of the county and for
this reason to a great extent, the city
Is popular as a placa of residence. The
. site of the city is rolling enough to
make ideal residence spots and there is
room for It to grow to sn almost un
limited extent
One of the highly artistic residences
. recently completed is that of R. E. Shine,
formerly manager Of the Southern Ore
gon company. He resides at Coquille
and is connected with one of the banks
of that city. Mr. Shine's house is of trie
California bungalow type. The fences
and lattice are stained to correspond
.with tha color schema and the Interior
la elegantly finished.
Another handsome residence, which
would be classed as among the finest
and largest In the county, Is thst of J:
N. Nye Jr., "well known traveling-man.
lit is of the square colonial type and is
Surrounded by beautiful grounds. Ad
Joining is the home of John Paulson, as
large as the Nye residence but of 'a dif
ferent type. Another smaller house, but
of equal beauty, is that of George E.
Peoples,, proprietor of the Baxter hotel
at Coquille. In the same neighborhood
are two homes just finished. One Is a
two story bungalow which was built by
John Aft son, logging operator, and an
other large residence has been
built by J. Belloni. .The Fuhrman
home and the Sterling residence are to
be built this year. The opening of a
large tract of land known as the Notley
' tract, adjoining this part of the city, in
sures a large district for handsome
homes. u
Another residence district Is known as
Bpurgeon Hill and here one o the finest
homes of the city is the new residence
of E. E. Johnson, one of the largest
lumber operators of the county. Mr.
Johnson's bungalow is a beautiful mod
ern atructure with particularly fine in
terior finishing.
A number of other homes are to be
built in Coquille this year. The modern
business buildings which have been put
up during the last year and the asphalt
pavements and street improvements
which have been Btarted are in keeping
with the attractiveness of the homes.
AUTHORITIES AT
CROSS PURPOSES
IN MURDER CASE
(Continued From Page One.)
hired that car. We know the names
and are looking for every one who rode
in that car that night. We believe that
there will be further squeals, but we
also know that there has been much
unjust criticism of the department. We
will arrest every man connected in the
Rosenthal murder and every detail of
that crime and the facts leading up to
It will be revealed."
. Private Detectives reared.
Despite Dougherty's confident asser
tions, It was learned today that he and
his associates were badl worried over
the fenr that the private detectives en
gaged In the case would arrest the act
ual murderers. It was reported that
the district attorney had all of the in
formation that the police had. and in
addition much more. This he has given
to his private sleuths, and 40 of them
were roported on good authority to
night t' be working on the case.
Dougherty took issue tonight with the
report from the district attorney that
Rosenthal was called out of the Metro
pole to be shot to death.
"That would have been too rough
work for the men who committed this
crime,'' said Doupherty. "We believe
that the men who killed Rosenthal knew
he was In the Metropole. So they Just
waited for him to come out, and then
committed the crime. We are certain
that the actual killing of Rosenthal was
not de'ideil on until after the car was
hind and some of the men now under
arrest are likely to tell more before
they are finally turned loose, if they
ever are."
Police Plead Lack of Support.
In support of his assertion that the
courta have not been jJSHiPljbrUng the
police In their war on' gamblers, but ,
have restored roulette wheels and other
apparatus to their owners after the po
lice eelzed them in raids, Commissioner
Waldo tonight made public a statement
showing that the equipment returned in
the last year was worth, in round fig
ures, $68,000.
With tha expectation of complete de
velopments, the newspaper squad at po
lice headquarters whs reinforced tonight.
So numerous were the reporters, and so
busy were the photographers that a
crowd collected, blocked traffic and was
forcibly dispersed by the police.
Inspector Hughes threw a cordon of
plain clothes men around one of his
mysterious "woman witnesses," ordered
a taxlcab for her and announced that
If the newspaper men or photographers
molested her they would be arrested
for "disorderly conduct."
"Brldgle" Wobber, noted gambler and
declared enemy of Rosenthal, who es
corted another woman from the head
quarters, struck one of the photogra
phers across the face when he "snapped"
his escort. A crowd gathered, followed
"Bridgie" and his friends until they
were forced to return and ask police
protection. The woman became hys
terical and refused to leave headquar
ters. She declined to give her name, but
loudly declared that she was not con
nected with the Rosenthal case. An
other squad was formed and she was
hustled into n doled cab by the police.
Inspector Hughes then ordered all
photographors from the building. One
who hesitated was ejected and warned
not to "ever reenter headquarters." The
massive doors were ordered closed to
all photographers.

An additional 1250,000 of the bonds will
have to be sold. It is said. An esti

mH of Engineer Ralph ModJeskl by
Deputy City Auditor Qrutie to cover
this point. But the interest charge at
4 per cent, the railroad men pointed out,
on $1,700,000, would be $64,000 annually

other words, this would be nearly twice
as much as the railroad asks from both
city and street car company for the use

"Ws didn't want to build th upper
deck, but. w were required to." was
the statement from the O.-W. R. & N.
company. -"To do bo we borrowed money
and we are asking enough rental from
the city and the street car company to
pay tha Interest-on the money wa bor
rowed. In addition, w are assuming

Isn't an attempt to swindle the city."
Tha minimum Investment of the rail
road In the upper deck Is placed at
$773,000, the maximum at SOO,000. Pi
nal statements have not been made.
Five per cent on the Investment la
asked and this amounts to $38,60.) an
nually, based on the minimum, to b
divided between the city and the street
car company. Another proposition has
placed th monthly rental for the city
at $1600, the car company at $15p0.

(Continued From Pags One.)
Some comparisons between the cost to
tho city of the Broadway bridge and
the proposed rental of the new railroad
bridge were made by the railroad men
yesterday.

For the building of the Broadway
bridge- a bond issue of $2,000,000 was

proposition, the building, the east side
franchises and streets and everything
else at issue between city and rail
road. "The railroad bridge is there by suf
ferance and without authority of law,
as the decision of the supreme court
proves. And the city can have the use
of the bridge without delay and should
proceed at once to force the railroad
to trial before a Jury.''
Although a special foroe of men
worked steadily yesterday it was found i
impossible to complete the track on
the new. railroad bridge to run tho first
train as scheduled yesterday evening.
This was a disappointment to Chief
Engineer and Assistant General Man
ager O. W. Boschke, who stayed on the
ground all day. He says the train of
ballast cars will cross the bridge today
and that passenger trains will begin
crossing the bridge tomorrow.

SURVEYORS GET THEIR COMPANY
TROUBLE WITH THE
OWNER
OF TIOELANDS
(Speciil to Th Journal.)
Newport, Or., July 21. The Southern
Pacific surveyors at work on the tlde
lsnds of Yaqulna bay, which were re
cently given the railroad company by
the state supreme court, met their first
opposition this week. From all ac
counts tha skirmish was Woodless, but
tho railroad men had to retreat.
Hunnlng their lines up the river a
few mllea above Newport, they started
across the summer home of Pr. A. D.
Mclntyre of Portland. Mrs. Mclntyre

people, and" as soon as she knew who
they were requested them to leave her
grounds. After a short parley they did
so, civilly enough, but word wss soon
afterward brought to Mrs. Mclntyre that
"That old lady will havs to pay dear
for her d d old wharf when the S. P.
g.s hold of it."
Mrs. Mclntyre then refused to let
them run a line across to facilitate. their
further work. She ssld she did not
mind being called an old lady, but that
as to paying rent to the railroad com
pany, the company had better look up
a few titles. The Mclntyre property Is
a part of the old Trtjrnmy Ferr home-stetffj,-TneTtrst'

that part of the river, and the patent
to which, antedates th railroad claim

Comfort and Durability

places it in favor with those who appreciate its appropriateness in
the furnishing of the living-room and other rooms of the home.
Especially is this recognized in the rush fiber and reed and willow
pieces, of which we have a splendid showing, finished and in the
natural, the latter affording an opportunity for finishing as desired.
