xatlgat: -n Would Znd.
The adoption of the measure will
also mean the end of all litigation con
earning the use of the Hawthorne
bridge. This case has been in the
courts almost since the bridge was
completed in December. 1910. The com
pany has not paid rental for this atruo
Jure alnce that time, contending that
It waa operating under a franchise
granted for the use of the old Madison
street bridge in 1891.
The proposed franchise provides that
three cents shall be paid hereafter for
each car crossing each of the bridges.
These are the Hawthorne, Morrison,
Burneide. O.-W. R. & n.. and Broad
way. Thia rate la to be in effect until
November 81. 1921. After that time
the city Is to be allowed to change the
rate but at no time is It to charge less
. than three cents for each car nor more
' in the aggregate In any calendar year,
than an amount equivalent to two and
three-tenths per cent of the gross re
ceipts from passengers crossing the
-bridges on the cars of the company.
The franchise expires December 31,
1932.
Common User to Apply.
The franchise stipulates that if the
cly ever acquires the street railway
system no value is to be attached to
the franchise. It la also provided that
common users privileges are to be al
lowed on all of the bridge tracks.
In addition to the amounts due for
tjse of the Hawthorne bridge there are
flue large amounts for the use of the
other bridges since February, 1913. C.
A. Btgetow, commissioner of finance,
estimates the amount to be nearly
1100.000.
A provision of the proposed fran
chise makes . It mandatory upon the
company to pay its bridge rentals on
the tenth day after each month of use.
I SAIiARY RISE UP TO COUNCIL
'Bole Trower In Case Rests With
Members.
Tha city council has the sole power
to raise the salaries of civil service
employes, according to a decision given
the municipal civil service board by
City Attorney La Roche, this morn
ing. There had been considerable ques
tion as to who had the authority for
. raising salaries of employes in accord
ance with provisions of the efficiency
ode.
Mr. La Roche says that the effi
ciency, code ordinance gives the com
mtesloner in charge of a department
power to change the grade of an em
ploye, and thus increase the salary,
provided the efficiency ratings are ap
proved by the civil service board. He
ays that neither alone has the power
o raise salaries, therefore It Is neces
sary for action to be taken by the
council. The council several weeks ago
raised the salaries of a large number
of city employes.
Head Waters Inspected.
.To see what work is actually neces
sary in changing the head works of
tha Bull Run water system In the Bull
Run reserve so that the city will hav
a larger water supply. Will H. Daly,
commissioner of public -utilities, and
the heads of the water bureau are in

"What do you suppose he was going

"It was written so that Harper could
get a little more money for his loca

"Didn't you think that he was go
ing to show that letter to intending
purchasers, as coming- from the man
who owned the land?"
McLane again evaded, and the Judge
dropped his questioning until a, little
later when McLane, In reply to a
question from Reames. explained that
the Increase In price of locations was
desired by Harper because of the added
expense in complying with the require
ments laid down by McLane as a' condi
tion in connection with his agreement
to accept powers of attorney.
McLane said that it was intended
that he should write to the apllcants,
after they sent in their powers of at

McLane said that in January or Feb-

up in Seattle and told him he was go-

turn the letter to him for $15, which
McLane said he refused to give.
K. M. Chester of Portland, who was
a witness for the government, testified
that in a conversation with Harper be-
fore Harper went on the witness stand,
that Harper told him Sellers had gone
into the locating business under mis-
repreBentation and was innocent of
any intentional wrongdoing.
Sellers, In his own defense, said that
he became associated with Harper in

property near Tenino, Wash., and paid
Sellers' expenses to move to Tacoraa
and organize a mining company. He

Chicago. July 21 The federal In
dustrial relations commission opened a
rive days' bearing at the Hotel La
Salle here today to Investigate the
causes of disputes between labor and
capital. A large number of employers
and representatives of labor organiza
tions will be examined.
Charles Pies, ex-president of the Illi
nois Manufacturers' association, was
the first witness. While advocating
the open shop, he disapproved the use
of special deputies and gunmen By em
ployers during strikes.
"Injunctions preventing violence
should be Issued 'by the courts in such
cases," Pies said. "If the courts re
fuse to act, the only alternative is for
the employer to hire his own men and
protect hla property if the authorities
fail to cope with the situation. I con
sider that a very bad alternative in
deed." -
Pies condemned the principle of the
closed shop. He recited bis experi
ence in bis plants of the Link Belt
company employing 2000 men. Piez
asserted that since the shop came un-
rdervthe open shop plan its output per
man had Increased nearly 200 per cent
with the same equipment. He denied
that he was opposed to unions and said
that he merely thinks they are mis
managed.

The dock commission discovered this
morning that when ' It paid William
Reid 1350.000 for his waterfront prop
erty as site for an east side dock, the
assessed valuation being only a frac
tion of this amount. It had not finished
with him.
Aided by his attorney, he succeeded
in inducing the commission to pay half
the cost of moving a pipe line that ha
was permitted to continue across the
property as a matter of accommoda
tlon. This line is used In pumping
water from the river to a cold storage
and Ice plant which he owns. After
the pipe line concession had been ar
ranged Mr. Reid asked if he might not
also include a blow pipe from the
boiler in his plant in the arrangement. '
This was the first the commission
knew that Reid waa maintaining the
additional pipe without authority. The.
engineering department of the dock
commission then reported that when
this pipe burst about a month ago, the
steam bored a hole through 10 feet of
earth and produced a scalding geyser
60 in height and with a radius of CO
feet. Permission to maintain this blow
pipe wag delayed until Mr. Reid can
show how he can make it perfectly
safe. Chairman Mulkey had called for
other business, when Attorney Booth
Interrupted with still another request
When the property was bought title
to a portion of it was in litigation.
Forty-two thousand dollars was re
tained until title should be cleared.
Attorney Booth asked for the money,
saying six months had gone by and
the litigation had not yet succeeded.
Chairman Mulkey said his understand
ing of the matter was that a restralu-
ins utucr ajainai paying me money
had been obtained. "Do you want the
dock commission to put itself In con
tempt of court?" he questioned. Dep
uty City Attorney Latourette then ex-
plalnel he was not sure there was a
restraining order, but that it was cer
tain the litigation had not been fin
ished. No arrangement was made to

Mrs. McKee set forth her recommenda
