Tl decision was reached after some live discussion, in which Martin Winch, F. I. Fuller, vice-president of the Portland Railway. Light & Power company, and Frank Rlggs, head of an automobile agency, took a prominent part. Finally everybody agreed that the best results could be obtained by limiting the speed of all vehicles to 16 miles an hour In a congested district bound ed by Tenth and Third Streets, Washing ton and Oak as ftfr as Park, thence to Stark and up Stark to Tenth, on thn west side; and on the east side, on Grand avenue and the streets leading from Grand avenue to the bridges.

Outsldo of this district on both sides of the river, the speed limit was fixed at 25 mlleB an hour. It was made eletr, however, that In all congested districts the speed should bo governed by traffic conditions and that a great deal should be left to the discretion of the traffic officer. R. II. Strong thought that including Oak street would make the congested district pretty large and work hard ship on taxi-cab companies, which by the provisions of tha ordinance coull not keep their cars drawn up at the curb longer than 20 minutes at a time.

Including tha Burnslds bridge, the Ford street bridge and the Willamette heights bridge. This was done after City Attorney Grant had told how Mra, C. K. s.

After Julius Meier of Meier & Frank had asked the committee to permit loading and unloading of ve hicles between 6 n. m. and 9:ao m instead of only from 7 p, m. to 8 a. m., John B. Yeon, owner of the Yeon build ing, declared that there was not a ner- son in Portland who had not suffered iinanciaiiy, from conditions In Alder street. "attest Turned Into Alley. , "The street has been made an alley." he said.' "Just today I have closed a lease for a store in my building at 1450 a month rent that sltfmld-have brought isuo. Making Alder street an alley Is responsible." The time for loadtnr and unloading was finally made from 6:30 p. m. to 8 a. m., after Julius Meier had agreed to accept the hours and had mad a warm defense of his firm and Its efforts to keep the street way bpen. "There is no use in taking Meier ft Frank and putting them on a pedestal," he declared. "It that's the purpose of this law, we want to know It" Mr. Meier said the law seemed to be aimed at his firm, and that he wanted, to protect It, but that every effort was being made by his house to keep the street clear. Other provisions of the ordinance that proved acceptable Included one barring heavy traffic off streets in the con gested district except late at night and early in the morning; a provision gov- rnlng the signals to be used by traffic fficers to regulate trhfflo, and leaving to the discretion of the traffic officer when vehicles must stop at street inter sections, and a section prohibiting the use of street elevators In busy hours.

Mayor Rushlight will select the lines over which an all-night owl car service Will be operated, said President B. 8. Josselyn of J he- Portland Railway Light ft Power company thla morning. Mr. Josselyn has decided that the service shall be permanently provided, the peo ple of Portland. Three weeks of the trial of the owl or all-night service hav passed jmd the. street car officials are now compiling their report to be submitted to the mayor. It will be several days before the report will, be completed and ready for tho mayor's perusal. "We have found," said President Jos selyn, "that in running the cars all night, the 2:80, 3:10 and 4:30 a. m. cars, In quite a number of cases, and for sev eral nights In succession have carried no one at all. "It is our purpose to establish all night runs upon such lines as there is apparent need for the service, but we are leaving It to the mayor to pick them out, this In accord with our original promise. "It seems to be the desire of the pub He that an all-night service be estab lished, and we are willing to meet that condition more than half way, even If we suffer a financial loss. It Is a strange fact that the report of passen gers carried on the owl servloe shows that more passengers are carried Into the city from the suburbs on 1:30 and" 1:30 cars than are, carried out from the city. This may be due to the fact presumably, of the ability of the young man to spend -longer time visiting than he would otherwise have." Journal Want Ads bring results.
