,he believed open dock construction det-'-.

Mulkey of the dock commission said to-
Jay: .... '

1 "I personally believe that a sea wall
'along the wider parts of the harbor
; might prove a good thing. Where the

"would probably be necessary at all times
(to allow the river freest sweep tfuring
(,-' freshets. ' . ,
' "I believs the dock commission will
have to be convinced first that eddying
and shoaling Is caused by Open docks.
J With this view in mind, we have in
structed our engineer to make investi
gations and tests. We want to be sure,
too, that wea walls will prevent shoal
lng. "Should the sea wall construction be
adopted and the Port of Portland fill
In behind the wall, the dock commission
would Insist on a waiver from each up
land land owner of any title adverse to
the state. We would also insist that if
the city Of Portland should at any tlmj
seek to purchase the upland ' property

ER CASE
Woman Horseback Rider fig
ures in Investigations of
Barr Killing.
What is believed, to be the most im
portant circumstance as yet uncovered
In the investigation, Into tho mystfirlous
murder( of Harry Q. Harr, chauffeur,
who was found' dead on the Linn ton
road with a bullet hole In his head cur
ly Tuesday morning, was reported to
the police Tuesday! afternoon by "Hap-
p St Clair, a -chauffeur, far a local
taxlcab company, who says he saw a
woman riding a horse barelwc.k about
two. mtles beyond "The Hut." at 10
o'clock Monday night.
Th6ugh tho officials kept this fact
quiet and are inclined to pass it by
lightly, it is believed that It Is the moHt
tangible, clue they nave to work on.
Other iricrlmtnatlng- circumstances seem
to be closing around certain suspftcts In
the case, and- though the detectives and
sheriff's forces are as reticent as ever
about making public the, progress of
their investigations, they are working
with an added activity that seems to
presage arrests within perhaps a few
hours. '
Another Circumstance in Cass.
Another, circumstance developed In the
investigation but not made public Is
that Barr went from the Seward hotel
to the Multnomah hotel In a taxlcah
just before be left the Multnomah with
his party of two traveling men and the
woman, whom he took to the Hut
Though there is apparently no connec
tion between this fact and the possible
circumstances of the crime, it Is a de
tall that the officers have not cared to
give out -and where all the posslbue
clues are apparently so trifling, it may
mean more than appears on the sur
face.
St. Clair repotted his experience to
the police when he went on shift Tues
day afternoon, and later the sheriff's
office was made acquainted with the
facts, which are now being developed
on the possibility of unraveling the mys
tery wnloh has surrounded the case.
ffaw Woman on Horseback.
St' Clair told the officers he was driv
ing with a party on the Llnnton road
aabout two miles beyond "The Hut,"
when hearing some one coming from
oenma ne loosed around ana saw a
woman approaching rapidly on horse
back. "I naturally slowed up a little,"
he said, "and the rider passed me. I
noticed particularly that she was wear
ing a kimono or dressing gown, and that
her hair was disheveled as though it
had been disarranged in a scuffle. It
was not hanging down her back as
though arranged that' way purposely.
"After the .woman passed I speeded
up a little and followed behind her for
quite a distance. Near the ferry she
swung off the road and was lost to view
among the houses at that point. Tho
unusual experience impressed me natur
ally, arid When 1 read'the next day of
the murder of Bare.-1 naturally con
nected the two events In my mind."
St. Clair said that the horse ridden by
the woman had neither saddle nor bri
dle, but was guided with a halter strap.
Believing that the clues which will
most probably lead to the apprehension
of Barr's assailant or assailants, Sher
iff Stevens spent the entire morning in
going over the scene of the crime and
surrounding territory in runnlne down
clues which have been made known to
him.
Captain Baty of the detective denart.
ment and George .ftarr, brother of the
murdered, man were also in consultation
again this morning, -though Captain Baty
denied that he bad developed anything of
importance." '
The coroner's inquest into the case is
scheduled for 4:30 o'clock this after,
noon. . 7
TO CURB BOOTBLACKS

The license committee of the city
council yesterday recommended for pas

New Plant One Third finished;
Cement Walks Are Being
Laid.
Pure water in plenty is soon to be
running through the main of Red
mond, the growing center of a great ir
rigated tract of central Oregon, accord
ing to repots of W. A. Belcher, known
as the "Father of Redmond," who Is
visiting in Portland.
"The fine new $40,000 waterworks
which will supply our city, Is about
one-third-finished and work is being
carried on rapidly," end Mr. Belcher,
"The water will be taken from the De
schutes river and will be stored In a
big reservoir at Forked Horn Butte, two
and a half miles from Redmond. The
water will have an 0-foot head, giving
plenty of force. The capacity Is great
enough to supply the city when many
more people have settled there.
"Another great Improvement which
will make Rodmopd more citified, is the
fact that cement sidewalks are being
laid the length of Main street. Every
thing is being done as rapidly as possi
ble t6 Improve the place.
"Crops are exceptionally fine In our
section and fruit trees five and six
years old are loaded until bending un
der the weight of the -fruit. Dairying
Is also making rapid stride In the
country, over 500 dairy cow being tak
en In during the last six months. It Is
a fine country for raising chickens, hugs
and fruit.
"A big dam is being constructed In the
Deschutes river which will furnish wa
ter to irrigate 78,000 acres of land east
of Redmond, which will be sold at $45
an acre after the water Is ort the land.
Maintenance charges for water after
that: will amount to SO cents a year
per acre. In all, there are 100,000
acres of land to be Irrigated contiguous
to Redmond and half of the land Is al
ready under water. The Improved land
with water on it is being sold at from
$100 to $1(0 an acre while land unim
proved sells for from $40 to $45 an
acre. Forty to $0 acres will easily sup
port a family. Clever and alfalfa grow
In abundance."
Mr. Belcher etarted the town of Red
mond seven year ago. He brought
with him on this trip fruit and potatoes
which he turned over to William Mo
Murray, general passenger agent of the
O.-W. R. A N. company, and these have
been placed on exhibition in the win
dows of the company ticket office at
Third and Washington streets.
