t hav been told By Attorney John
Logan that the railroad has no le
gal title to cine levee and I am willing
to make the assertion right now that its
holding of the leveo is nothing more
than a theft," said Councilman Maguire.
The council sustained Mayor Rush
light's veto of th "owl" car ordinance
by a vote of 9 to 4..,. Those voting to
psea the measure over the veto were
Councllmert Clyde, Daly, Maguire ahd
Monks.
Three other vetoes were sustained
unanimously. One of these disapproved
an ordinance reimbursing Aibers Bros,
Milling company for the cost of pav
ing a portion ot Front street under the
Broadway bridge. The other two or
dinances Vetoed by the mayor granted
special permits for the construction of
gasoline filling stations.
By a vote of 10 to 4, the city council
passed an ordinance requiring all firms,
persons and corporations receiving de
posits of money as security for. money
or property handled by employes to pay
interest on such uepnsits.
The ordinance hud been in the hands
f the Judiciary committee for eight
months. Councilman Clyde, its author,
Said some companies have as much as

without paying any Interest therefor.

An extension of time tfas granted the

er ordinance. The extension grant pro-
Ides that all the cars of the company
must be equipped With automatic life
saving fenders by July 31 1913. Coun
cllmen Maguire, Clyde and Jennings
oted against the extension on the
ground that several extensions of time
ave already been granted.
The council, after a discussion of
some minutes, voted to re-refer to tho
health and police committee an ordin
ance exempting the Failing estate build
ing oh Aldef and Fifth streets fr6m tho

vlllon on Council Crest waa referred
back to the license committee on re
quest of Councilman Watkins, who eald
a number of residents of Council Cret
had asked for an opportunity to maka
a protest against the amendment of the
measure.
"There Is a desire manifest on the
part of the people to understand the
issue, and to understand It so well that
they catmot bs deceived by misrepre

Mr. Tlel made the assertion concern

Dentist Is Calls.
tr. J. P. Johnson, donttst. who did
considerable work on the victim's teeth
last June, and who kept a chart of this
work, was called, and waa able to make
the Identification certain. '
Herbert Johnson was 22 years old and
was popular among a large acquaint
ance in Portland. He was a member of
the T. M. C. A. Last May he Joined a
Surveying party, going into BkamahiA
county, Wash., for fit. Green, civil en
gineer, who Is developing some water
power in that section. Johnson Intended
to return this fall and resume his stu
dies in engineering.
According to Mr. Green, who accom
panied the body to Portland, the ac
cident, happetied a few days before the
work on the Clspue was completed.
YOung Johnson was standing on a log
doihg some Work When he fell Into the
river. Efforts made at this time to find
the bodyi were unsuccessful.
V" A week ago the body Was brought to
the Surrace by dynamite explosions. It
was In such condition that it could not
be taken from the water Without being
first embalmed.

As soon as possible a runher was sent
Into Randle,. Lewis county, aHd from
there a message was Sent to John Hon

eycutt then accompanied the runner
back to the survey camp, prepared John
son's body, and assisted In getting it
to Randle, where tran connection was
made. Mr. lioneycutt with Mr. Green
accompanied the body to Portland.
The trip from the Clspus to Randie,
Mr. Greene says, is a strenuous one un
der favorable conditions, it being nec
essary to walk a good part of the CO
miles, and it was particularly hard this
time on account of the burden being
brought out.
Otto Johnson, the father, Is foreman
of the Northern Pacific Terminal In
Portland. The Victim is survived also
by his mother, two Bisters and one
brother.
The body Is at the Flnley undertak
