Howard and Stearns attempted to go over the state engineer's head by vir tually , appealing ir the board iot Its recommendation for patent, ' but the board took no action. -State finginerr Lewis declared It was the "rawest deal'' he ever knew of feeing presented to a state board. ;r Tho settlers are clamoring for pat ents to their lands, so they may bor row money on them, and the comnanv tfflcTals argue that the patents were ; etng delayed because the state en Benont Fenney. Mrs. L. S. Penney of Beaverton, Or, I3 seeking Information about her son Benonl Fenney, aged 16 years, from whom sho has. not received a. letter since July 7. The last trace the mother has had of her son was a report from a friend that the boy had registered on November 1 at a hotel at Second and Madison streets. A few- days ago the boy shipped his suitcase, containing some old colthes, to his home, but no word accompanied it The mother is very anxious to find the boy. declaring that she had planned to; put him in school this winter. He is bolloved to have been working with some paving or building concern, as his clothes are covered with cement dust Mrs. Fenney asks anyone who knows where the boy is at this time, or where he may be found, to communicate with her at Beaverton, Box 28. PHON COMPANY TO E EXTEND ITS SERVICE New Underground Cables to Be t Put in by the Pacific States Company, . Fred Spoeri, manager of the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co., announced tills morning that his company had thorized three downtown service exten sions to cost about 35,180. "One is for a BOO pair underground cable from our main office to Sixteenth and Jackson," said Mr. Spoeri, "this be ing the second of three cables for this project, covering the construction of underground cable and aerial wire In the main district south' of Jefferson street and west of Park street, which Is to provide facilities for the estimated growth, and to relieve the present con gestion. The total cost of this work will be about 182,000.

RAILROADS CHARGED WITH DISCRIMINATION AGAINST SCHOONERS (Continued From Page One.) y iff officials of the railways mentioned in the complaint for their side of th controversy and reply was telegraphed ci.iDoaying me cnier reasons for dis continuing the absorption. Ahsorptoa la.. Burdta, "We re discontinuing the absorption i(HuuB 11 as uecome too burdensome to carry any longer," said F. W. Hoblri son, assistant traffic manager of tie O.-W. R. & N., today.. "There is no more reason, why a railway company should have to stand these wharfage charges than to pay the drayage from a wholesale house to a freight depot Business competition was at the bot tom of the system in the first place but it his gotten so now that every dock hasto be served in the same way whether there is trackage there or not "VVe are not discriminating against Portland or against the schooner lines" The railways, however, will continue to absorb the charges when cargoes are unloaded or loaded over their own docks It Is pointed out by, the chamber that the schooners are able to handle cargoes at less cost than the steamers because they are more easily handled In fils harbor. Would Work Hardship. Requiring them to berth at. the rail way docks, it is declared, would work undue hardship upon private dock own ers as well as upon the schooners, which would have to be: loaded with greater enre to provide for .unloading at the different docks. In an effort to combat the inroads upon the Portland territory of the steam schooner lines, representatives of the regular lines on. the coast are In con ference here with tile purpose of taking steps to rotaln their hold on the busi ness. Those who are. in Portland, to work out some plan of reprisal are: 11. C. Catetow of Bun FranclsCb, general freight agent of the Pacific Coast Steamship company; R. M.

U Illulr. general man ager of the San Francisco & Portland. The complaint Is. made thaf the schooners, by giving rates below the steamer rates, have seriously, cut Into the overland business. cilitiea. We estimate an increase of 260 stations by July 1, 1914, as a result of placing this cable, and we estimate a gain of 147$ stations by January 1, 1919, in the district for which relief Is pro vided by this request. This work will cost about J1800. .. "The third Job covers the placing of additional underground cable in the present subway on Burnside and Fif teenth stroets. This is to relieve the cpngested condition of the underground cables over this route. This work will provide facilities for the new Northwest ern Kleotrlc company's building. The estimated cost of this work is $1380. We expect an Increase of 75 stations by Januury 1, 1914, and an increase of B3S stations by January 1, 1918, as a result of doing this work."
